Nangong Yu looked at the expression on Sikong Zhaoya's face and said with concern, "Your Highness, why are you returning to the capital at this time? Is it because Emperor Xiaojing wants you to persuade His Majesty to surrender?"

Sikong Zhaoya looked at the expression on Nangong Yu's face and shook his head with a smile, "In fact, His Majesty and I proposed to come back. After all, this matter is related to the safety of the two countries.

In the final analysis, we at Xiyue overestimate our capabilities. I never thought that even if we teamed up with Bei Lin, Xiyue could defeat Nan Chen. What's more, if Bei Lin takes over the world, then Huiyue will definitely become the turtle in the urn. General, I wonder if what I said makes sense? "

When Nangong Yu listened to Sikong Zhaoya's words, he didn't expect that in just a few months, Sikong Zhaoya would be able to say such words. If it were placed in the past, Sikong Zhaoya would definitely not be able to say such words. , it seems that Nanchen is indeed a place.

When Nangong Tian thought of this, he looked at Qingyan next to her again, "Your Highness, is the Peony girl next to you sent by Emperor Xiaojing to protect you?"

After listening to Nangongtian's words, Sikong Zhaoya looked to Qingyan aside and nodded seriously, "You are right. She was indeed sent by His Majesty to protect me. Is it possible that General Nangong knows this maid?"

Nangong Yu looked at Sikong Zhaoya and shook his head, "I wonder if Emperor Xiaojing told you that this maid is very similar to the Queen Mother."

Sikong Zhaoya nodded after listening to Nangong Yu's words, "His Majesty stayed with Mu Dan because she looked similar to the Queen Mother. Mu Dan is a top-notch expert beside His Majesty, so His Majesty asked her to come with him to protect me. .”

Nangong Yu nodded to show understanding after listening to Sikong Zhaoya's words, "So, it seems that Emperor Xiaojing really misses the Queen Mother very much? It's a pity that the Queen Mother passed away so early, and it's hard for his child."

Qingyan smiled after listening to Nangong Yu's words and said, "General Nangong, what do you mean by this? Our Majesty won the throne in an honest and fair manner, not to mention the disasters that fell from heaven during Wei Sheng Jun Yan's reign, which is enough to prove this. everything."

Nangong Yu nodded after listening to Qingyan's words, "I know! That's why I said that Emperor Xiaojing ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor at a young age. He must have to bear a lot of pain alone."

Sikong Zhaoya smiled and said after listening to Nangong Yu's words, "The general is really overly worried. Your Majesty is very powerful now, and the prime ministers will help him. Your Majesty's dream is to unify the four countries. If one day your Majesty can When we can unify the four countries, that will be truly amazing."

Nangong Tu's eyes widened when he heard Sikong Zhaoya's words, "You mean, Emperor Xiaojing also wants to unify the four kingdoms?"

"This is natural. Your Majesty once said that the unification of the world is what the Queen Mother wants to see most. Unfortunately, the Queen Mother left early and was unable to see this scene. Therefore, Your Majesty has always regarded this as an important task and has always wanted to see it. Unify the four countries, so now he is also working with us."

Nangong Yu nodded after listening to Qingyan's words, "I said that Emperor Xiaojing would definitely have the ambition to dominate the world, but it's a pity that they didn't believe it. They thought that Emperor Xiaojing was still young and not worth dealing with, but they didn't know that he was no longer Then there’s the original Emperor Xiaojing.”

Qingyan looked at Nangong Yu and said with a smile, "Why does the general think that your majesty is no longer the same majesty as before?"

Nangong Yu thought of the two figures he had seen many years ago and then smiled and said, "I heard that Emperor Xiaojing has been staying with His Highness Prince Rui since the death of the Empress Dowager. His Highness Prince Rui treats the Empress Dowager with deep affection and will definitely give him Emperor Xiaojing instilled the concept of revenge. So! This must have been discussed long ago."

Sikong Zhaoya looked at the expression on Nangong Yu's face and said with a smile, "You are right, Emperor Xiaojing is indeed no longer the same Emperor Xiaojing. What I think of now is that Emperor Xiaojing is a very capable person, but all those ministers are He is eyeing everyone, if he is not strong, how will he manage the world?"

Qingyan's eyes filled with admiration as she listened to Sikong Zhaoya's words. It seemed that Sikong Zhaoya wasn't that stupid after all.

"General, when can we arrive at the camp? I want to rest for a while before going to the capital. I am really tired from riding for such a long time." Sikong Zhaoya looked at Nangong Yu and said slowly, "Wait until early tomorrow morning. Let’s set off back to the capital at that time.”

Nangong Yu nodded listening to Sikong Zhaoya's words.

Not long after, they arrived at the location of Nangong Yu's army, and Nangong Yu also helped them organize a tent as quickly as possible. All in all, Sikong Zhaoya was still the princess of Huashan and could not neglect them.

After making arrangements for them, Nangong Yu called Nangong Tian away.

"Tian'er, have you discovered anything else in Jun'an City for such a long time?" Nangong Yu looked at Nangong Tian and frowned, "Have Nan Chen's reinforcements arrived?"

Nangong Tian looked at the expression on Nangong Yu's face and said with a smile, "What if dad arrives, so what if he doesn't? Is it true that the war between the two countries hurts innocent people to make you happy?"

Listening to Nangong Tian's words, Nangong Yu seemed not to have expected that he could say such words, "Tian'er, what do you mean by this? This is His Majesty's intention. We have no choice."

Nangong Tian looked at Nangong Yu and nodded, "Of course I understand what dad said. In fact, dad also hates war, right? If that's not the case, why did you refuse He Lianrong's proposal and not use the immortal pill? It means that the country of Xiyue and the existence of these soldiers must still be in my heart, so you did not agree to their request."

"What does this prove?" Nangong Yu looked at Nangong Tian and said helplessly, "Do you really think that everything can be solved like this? Tian'er, we don't have the final say in this world. We can only do whatever His Majesty wants us to do, and we must save lives."

Nangong Tian nodded, "I understand what my father said, but my father is also thinking about your majesty now! He doesn't want to make so many sacrifices, so the princess came back to persuade your majesty and the queen."

"But what can this prove?" Nangong Yu looked at Nangong Tian and said helplessly, "Now this has become a foregone conclusion, and there is no way to change it. Maybe the princess will only get the same answer when she goes back. We are now with Beilin’s cooperation cannot be changed.”

Nangong Tian looked at Nangong Yu and shook his head, "What do you mean you can't change? Why not give it a try? If it can really be changed, why don't we try to change it? After all, this matter is a good thing for us. , don’t you think so?”

"Tian'er, you are still young and don't understand these twists and turns, but you have to know that the world will be unified one day. As for whose hands this country will eventually fall back to, we still don't know."

Nangong Tian looked at Nangong Yu and shook his head, "Dad, I believe that in the end, the people in this world must be Wei Sheng, and Emperor Xiaojing will win this world in the end."

"Anything that cannot be said is so absolute, everything is unknown. Do you know what other people would think if they heard what you said? This is very disrespectful."

"I understand this truth, but father, do you really understand this truth? Do you really want our soldiers to die on the battlefield like this?" Nangong Tian looked at Nangong Yu and said helplessly, "In fact The Mohist army has now all reached the border. We don't know this! But why they didn't attack Jun'an City? It's because they want to "conquer the enemy without fighting". I always think this is the best way to win. .”

Nangong Yu opened his eyes wide after listening to Nangong Tian's words, "What you said is true. Have they really appeared at the border? But if that's the case, why doesn't everyone know the news? How could she be so quiet? What about Silence?"
