Shi Qingxue turned to look at Abao in a daze, her eyes filled with confusion and uncertainty.
She couldn't understand why the person in front of her was Mo Junyang, but why he refused to recognize her
Could it be that he doesn't want her anymore
When Shi Qingxue thought of this possibility, she felt like she was about to die from heartache.
In just one day, she was attacked twice by the man she loved. No matter how strong Shi Qingxue was, she couldn't bear it!
However, there were outsiders in front of her, and she habitually held back her tears, which made her heartache unbearably.
After a while, she managed to get over the sour feeling, raised her lips with difficulty, and tried to pretend to be okay, "I'm okay."
Abao is not stupid, how could he not see Shi Qingxue pretending to be strong.
This made him even more curious about who Xiao Yang was and what his relationship was with his sister Xue
However, now is really not a good time to ask, so Abao had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart, pretending not to see Qingxue's abnormality, and said gently: "It's okay, it's okay. It's not too early now." , let’s go back first!”
After saying that, Abao took Shi Qingxue's hand and wanted to take her away.
Shi Qingxue lowered her head and looked at the hands held by the two of them, then looked at Xiao Yang's back, and finally nodded and followed Abao out.
What the two people didn't know was that when they all turned around and walked out, Xiao Yang also turned around.
There was a dark light flashing in the man's deep eyes, as if some emotion was flashing, but it quickly disappeared into the blackness.
Xiao Yang just pursed his lips and finally said nothing, watching the two people leave.
The next day, Yelu Beichen summoned Xiao Yang again.
Yelu Beichen treated his favorite minister with great courtesy, and the treatment he deserved was unambiguous, even worse.
Now that the two of them were discussing matters, Yelu Beichen was also very courteous to the corporal. Not only did he let Xiao Yang sit, he also sat at the same table with him without any pretense.
If you listen carefully, you can even hear the caution in his questioning voice, "Xiao Yang, how have you considered what I told you a few days ago?"
Xiao Yang raised his eyes and glanced at Yelu Beichen, but did not answer immediately.
Yelu Beichen seemed to have seen hope, and quickly continued: "There are only you and me here, so I won't tell you those nonsense. Of all my sons now, the one who likes me the most is naturally my second son. Chu Feng, he is like me, very courageous. Although he still needs tempering, as long as you are willing to help him like you helped me. It won't take long before he will become a great person!
I hope you can help him for my sake! "
Xiao Yang slowly shook his head and pointed out the facts in a calm tone: "Although Liang Kingdom does not necessarily have to have the eldest son inherit the throne, the second prince is neither the eldest son nor the eldest son, and he has no achievements. Even if he is favored by you, the king, he will not be able to succeed. I can’t legitimately become your heir.”
These words were so straightforward that Yelu Beichen couldn't help but change his expression, but he quickly returned to normal. He even smiled at Xiao Yang and admitted it like a bachelor!
"You are right. Chu Feng's ability is indeed not enough to inherit the throne. I am afraid that you need to find a way to help him!"
Yelu Beichen is not a fool - although Xiao Yang's words just now were cold and ruthless, it was also a sign of the other party relenting.
If Xiao Yang really had no intention of helping Yelu Chufeng, the other party would not even ask the question.
Being willing to mention it now shows that there is still hope!
Yelu Beichen kept up his efforts and said: "You have always been resourceful and you used to help me overcome difficulties in the dark. Now that you have come to the front, you must be more capable.
Chu Feng's problem is not a problem at all to you. It depends on whether you are willing to help him!
Xiao Yang, I promise you that as long as you are willing to help Chu Feng, I will never let you suffer.
As long as Chu Feng can become the prince, I will make you the prime minister, one person is less than ten thousand people; when Chu Feng succeeds to the throne in the future, you will be the number one hero, and he will not treat you badly! "
Yelu Beichen kept talking good things to the world, as if as long as Xiao Yang helped Chu Feng, he could get the wind and the rain.
Xiao Yang heard all this MLM-style declaration, but he didn't believe a word of it!
He is not a fool - let’s not talk about anything else, just Yelu Chufeng’s attitude towards him is there. Yesterday there was another unpleasant incident. With Yelu Chufeng’s petty temper, if the other party gains power in the future, there will be more opportunities. Is he good
Furthermore, the title of "First Hero" sounds nice, but since ancient times, it has rarely happened that birds are gone and good bows are hidden
Now that Yelu Beichen wants him to help Yelu Chufeng, he can certainly say nice things, but he can be sure that if Yelu Chufeng really ascends to power in the future, he will be the first to be attacked.
Xiao Yang is very capable. Even if he refuses to agree to Yelu Beichen now, the other party will definitely not do anything to him - because Yelu Beichen still can't do without him - so as long as he does his own thing peacefully, it will happen in the future. No matter what happens, he can withdraw at any time, and there is no need to wade into this muddy water.
However, just when Yelu Beichen thought that his persuasion was going to fail again, he heard Xiao Yang say calmly: "Didn't the Lord just agree a few days ago to make the eldest prince a prince after he returns from training? Now this If you go back on your word, you will be afraid of the face of the king!"
Yelu Beichen was stabbed in a sore spot by Xiao Yang. He looked miserable and said with a wry smile: "I agreed to Chu Qi too hastily. I really didn't expect that we would be in today's predicament!"
After a pause, he even showed a flattering smile to Xiao Yang and said, "Now that you have pointed it out, there must be a way to solve my dilemma, right?"
Xiao Yang shrugged nonchalantly, "It depends on what effect your Majesty wants to achieve!"
"To tell you the truth, it's not that I don't like the eldest prince Chu Qi, but that Chu Qi's maternal family is Ashina. This family is already overbearing in our country. In addition, Meng Jue has recently won many military exploits and has gained great momentum.
However, Chu Qi is also a person who is embarrassed by his great responsibilities. If he is really allowed to inherit the throne, I am afraid that the country of my Yelu family will fall into the hands of Ashina! This is absolutely impossible! That's why I can't let Chu Qi gain power no matter what. "
Yelu Beichen made what he said sound and logical, as if it was true.
Uninformed people may actually believe it after hearing it.
But is Xiao Yang such a soft-hearted person
He knew clearly in his heart that the reason why Yelu Beichen did not want Yelu Chuqi to succeed him was not only because he was afraid that the Ashina family would take away his power, but more importantly, he did not like this son.
Otherwise, the second prince Yelu Chufeng's maternal wife, the Qina family, is also very powerful, so why wouldn't Yelu Beichen be worried about it
But Xiao Yang didn't intend to expose Yelu Beichen's lies, and even to the other party's expectation, he suddenly became very cheerful.
"Okay, since the Lord has this wish, I am willing to help His Majesty the Second Highness as he wishes."
In the astonished eyes of the other party, Xiao Yang did not feel that he had said anything extraordinary, and continued to say in a slow and calm tone in secret: "I am willing to assist His Highness the same way I assist the Lord of the Kingdom."
"You, you!" Yelu Beichen was so excited that he almost stuttered. In the end, he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart. He made a fist with his right hand and hit Xiao Yang on the shoulder.
He said happily: "Okay! Great! You are indeed the talent I value, Xiao Yang! You really did not disappoint me!"
However, Yelu Beichen was not happy for long, and his mood suddenly fell down again, and he said tangledly: "But I promised Chu Qi, what should I do about this matter?"
Although he didn't like Yelu Chuqi, he couldn't break his words for no reason, otherwise he would not be able to face the whole country in the future, and this might even become a perfect excuse for the Ashina family to launch an attack.
We still have to find a way to settle this matter!
Yelu Beichen once again looked at Xiao Yang for help.
Xiao Yang slowly raised his lips and said lightly: "The king just doesn't want the eldest prince to take the throne so easily. This is definitely not a difficult task."
"Oh? Do you have any idea?" Yelu Beichen's eyes lit up.
Xiao Yang slowly brought up another matter: "I heard that Liang Kingdom has recently started a war with Rong Di in the northwest?"
Rongdi is a small country located in the northwest of Liang Kingdom, and it is also a standard nomadic people.
Whether it is the living environment or the food, clothing, housing and transportation, it is far worse than that of Liang State, and it is even more incomparable with Mo State.
But it is precisely because of this that Rongdi people often harass the border of Liang Kingdom with the intention of robbing families and homes.
Not long ago, Liang State had a war on the border.
The two sides were evenly matched, and the fight became even more frustrating.
Yelu Beichen had been having a headache over this matter for a long time. When Xiao Yang mentioned it, the light in his eyes became even brighter. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, Rong Di and our country have fought several times this time, but they have never won. Damn, I'm still thinking about who else to send to put this matter to rest completely!
Do you have a way to deal with it? "
Xiao Yang shrugged and said calmly: "Isn't there a ready candidate now?"
"Who?" Yelu Beichen asked doubtfully, why didn't he know there was such a person
Xiao Yang: "The eldest prince."
"What!" Yelu Beichen said quickly: "This can't work! I didn't want the Ashina family to dominate in the first place. If the Ashina family were to quell this war, then what reason would I have for not granting Chu Qi the right to do it in the future? The prince?"
What he wants to do now is to break Yelu Chuqi off instead of touching him.
Xiao Yang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a cold and calculating smile, and said calmly: "If the eldest prince is still alive, you have no reason not to seal him, but what if he dies?"
"W-what?" Yelu Beichen felt like his eyes were about to pop out.
Yelu Beichen was completely stunned!
If he heard correctly, did Xiao Yang mean to kill Yelu Chuqi just now
