Views:

Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan glanced at each other, and the father and daughter both saw a certain amount of understanding in each other's eyes.

"I think your method is effective." Qin Huaiyuan put his arms around Brother Zhao and dropped a piece on the chessboard, and there was a crisp sound on the wooden chessboard.

Brother Han twisted in Qin Yining's arms, craned his neck curiously to look out the door, and the troubled Qin Yining didn't want to play chess.

"Mother, outside, I want to go outside to play."

"Brother Han doesn't learn to play chess anymore?" Qin Yining pinched Brother Han's soft little face.

Brother Han simply plunged into Qin Yining's arms, twisting his butt and shaking his head: "No, mother, Brother Han wants to go out and see! Brother is going too!"

Brother Zhao was playing with chess pieces in his hand, and he seemed to have no idea that he would be "involved" even if he didn't say a word, and looked at Brother Han in surprise.

Brother Han has jumped out of Qin Yining's arms, grabbing Brother Zhao's hand and running out: "Brother, go!"

Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help shaking their heads and laughing, and the father and daughter walked out of the tent together.

The main tent where they are located is in the camp, which is still far from the city gate, but the surrounding soldiers and generals are talking about it.

When the soldiers and men saw Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan passing by with their two children, they bowed their hands and saluted, showing great respect for the prince's father-in-law and princess.

When he came to the front of the battle, before he could get close to Pang Xiao, he saw that the city gate was wide open, and the people inside the city gate were full of people.

Xu Weizhi, Xie Yue and others had gathered around Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu, and everyone looked calm. Under the absolute advantage of force, they knew that Li Qitian couldn't make any waves, so they didn't feel nervous at all, and even faintly revealed a bit of excitement.

Chen Bing has been in the city for so many days, and the lord has not given any further orders. They have already been impatiently waiting! Although launching a general offensive will inevitably lead to casualties, but in all dynasties, which emperor who opened up territory did not conquer the world on horseback? As long as it is a war, there will be casualties. This is an established fact that no one can change when the wheel of history is rolling.

"Daddy!" Brother Han held his short legs upside down and pulled Brother Zhao to run towards Pang Xiao.

Hearing the sound, Pang Xiao turned around and couldn't help laughing. He grabbed Brother Han who had run to him and opened his arms to beg for a hug, and hugged Brother Han with the other hand.

Brother Zhao put his arms around Pang Xiao's neck without saying a word, leaned in his father's arms obediently, and looked at the distant city gate with doubts.

However, Brother Han was naughty and wanted to climb up Pang Xiao's neck, grabbing Pang Xiao's hair and using strength, like a restless little monkey.

Ji Zeyu watched Pang Xiao's hair hurt and grinned, shaking his head amusedly, and waved at Brother Han: "Brother Han, come to Uncle Ji."

"Uncle Ji, I want to be tall!"

Ji Zeyu was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what the child meant.

Qin Yining had already approached at this time, and said helplessly: "This child wants to sit on the shoulders, don't let him go." He turned around and told Brother Han, "You are an older child, why do you always want to sit on your shoulders? ?"

"It doesn't matter." Ji Zeyu understood, put Brother Han on his shoulders, and grabbed his two small hands with both hands.

This is a novel experience for Ji Zeyu. He has no children. Naturally, this is the first time to experience the joy of being a father. The child's soft little body sits on his shoulders. something very important.

Ji Zeyu is about the same height as Pang Xiao, and the experience of sitting on his shoulder is the same as riding on Pang Xiao's shoulder. Brother Han was happy, grabbed Ji Zeyu's hand and shook it, and swayed his short legs, kicking Ji Zeyu's shoulder with his heel several times.

"Uncle Ji, what are they doing?"

Ji Zeyu said patiently: "They may want to dispatch troops and horses."

Pang Xiao also let Brother Zhao ride his neck and support the child with both hands, "Not necessarily. I think they want to surrender more."

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding soldiers all laughed heartily.

Brother Zhao and Brother Han have never seen such a scene. The two children heard the adults laughing, and they laughed along with them.

Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help laughing when they saw the two children sitting on the shoulders of Ji Zeyu and Pang Xiao smiling so happily.

Qin Yining still had some emotions in his heart, Ji Zeyu seemed to be cold and alone, but he treated Pang Xiao with sincerity. He even treated Pang Xiao's son with great patience and gentleness, like the cold-hearted person in the past was not him.

Just as he was talking, a large area of red was suddenly used in the city gate.

It was an official in the Great Zhou Dynasty uniform. There should be forty or fifty people. They didn't bring any soldiers, horses and guards around, so they quickly greeted them.

In front of the two armies, one side stepped forward generously, and Pang Xiao would naturally not show weakness here.

He turned around and handed the child to Qin Yining, smiled and pinched Qin Yining's face, "I'll go meet them."

Qin Yining hugged Brother Zhao, "Okay, be careful yourself."

Pang Xiao smiled casually, "Those guys can't do anything to me before that."

He turned around, jumped onto the "dark cloud" brought by Huzi, and carried his long knife upside down. He rode out more and more, and went straight to the group of civil servants on the opposite side.

Ji Zeyu was worried, and handed Brother Han to Qin Yining, "I'll go take a look too."

Without waiting for Qin Yining to answer, he jumped on "Baiyun"'s back and chased after him.

Without the commander's command, Hu Ben Army and Ping Nan Army did not act rashly, but everyone became nervous. Even if the prince did not tell them, they all had a chilling expression on their faces, ready to face the battle at any time.

Pang Xiao had come to the officials at this time, he lifted the reins, the dark cloud left the ground, and the man stood up and snorted.

"What's the matter with all of you going out of the city so solemnly?"

Pang Xiao sat on the horse, looking down at the people in front of him.

Ji Zeyu also arrived at this time, tightening the reins at Pang Xiao's side, and looking at Pang Xiao inquiringly.

Without waiting for Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu to speak again, one of the officials took a step forward, bowed their heads, and saluted, "See your lord, I am waiting for the safety of the people in the capital, and I have specially opened the city gate to welcome the lord."

"Oh?" Pang Xiao's horsewhip patted on his palm, "You welcome this king? Could it be that the emperor wanted to open his mind and ordered you to come and greet him solemnly?"

"It is true that I am waiting to welcome you. But this is not what the Son of Heaven ordered."

The leader looked squarely at Yu Ziqiu, and when he saw Pang Xiao at this time, he was intimidated by the power of his whole body, and he didn't speak as confidently as when he was in the palace.

He bowed respectfully and said solemnly, "We are all remnants of the Northern Ji Kingdom, the old man knows what happened back then, and he also knows that the words of Prince Zhou Lian in the previous dynasty are the truth. I can't wait, at least I know that the people need to live. So I'm waiting here to open the gate, just to let the prince see our sincerity."
