The Tyrant’s Beloved Empress

Chapter 53

Views:

Xiji is located to the west of Daye. It was a country established by Xue Chang, the general of Zhuguo who supported his troops and established himself, and the Xiji people at the beginning of Daye's establishment. It was only later that Xue Chang reneged on his oath, blood-washed the regime, and suppressed the Xiji people, which created the current situation.

Today, although Xiji is still called Xiji in name, the real Xiji people are the meanest people. The real aristocrat in power is the Xue family.

In this generation, the previous king of Xiji died early, leaving only a young son named Xue Zhi, because the young master was young, and before the death of the previous king, he ordered the prime minister Xue Wuyi to be the regent and assist the young master.

The prime minister, Xue Wuyi, was named Xue Wuyi, but he was actually a beggar who was taken in by the previous king by fate. Later, the late king discovered that this beggar was extremely talented and could be compared with others, so he accepted it as his adopted son, gave him the surname Xue, and ordered someone to teach him to read and write. It is said that Xue Wuyi was only ten years old, and he was able to speak out against the officials in the court, and had unique political opinions. At the age of sixteen, he was proclaimed prime minister by the late king, and all officials surrendered.

Another year, the late king died, and Xue Wuyi was entrusted. In the ten years since Xue Wuyi, he has been in charge of the civil and military affairs of Xiyi with one hand.

And Shang Que, the commander of the Beihu Army, was the most useful knife in his hand.

Having dispatched Shang Que so quickly and quickly, Xiji was bound to win these two jadeite mines.

A few people went to the study room and screened the guards outside the door. Xiao Zhige said solemnly, "How did the news leak out? Are there spies on your side?"

The smile on Chang Zaichang's face disappeared, and he said with a gloomy expression: "I am too reassured about the people around me. The spy has been found out. When the dispute is explained, I will cut him into pieces with my own hands!"

At this time, he tore off the layer of gentle literati skin, looking like a military general who closed the city.

"The responsibility for this is yours." Xiao Zhige was not surprised, he stretched out his hand to compare a number: "I'm going to talk to Xiji. After the matter is completed, I will give you two."

Chang Zaichang glared: "Your heart is too dark! No, at least you are six and four! Otherwise, there is nothing to talk about!"

Xiao Zhige sneered: "You are in Yejing, and I haven't settled with you for giving me false news."

"When will I pass the news to your family—" Chang Zaichang didn't react for a while, and he suddenly remembered something in the middle of speaking, and his voice stopped abruptly. Quietly glanced at An Changqing, and retorted with insufficient confidence: "Isn't this all for your own good? I won't provoke you, can you make up your mind? Speaking of which, you can have today. You have to thank me!"

An Changqing listened to the two of them quarreling, keenly aware that it might have something to do with him, and pricked up his ears to listen carefully, but only heard the two of them playing dumb puzzles.

Xiao Zhige's brows froze: "You don't have to speak eloquently in front of me. I'll give you two, or you won't have any share."

Chang Zaichang gave a "tsk", frowned and said, "Don't, don't, let me think about it again!"

If someone from the Xiji faction came, Chang Zaichang would not be afraid. But it happened to be Shang Que. Shang Que was originally a descendant of the Xiji tribe, and his natural strength was infinite. I don't know what method Xue Wuyi used to tell him to be loyal to himself and to be a bull and a horse for him.

Naturally, Chang Zaichang couldn't beat him. If he really wanted to go to war, Chang Zaichang, the main general, could only be beaten. Apart from the young Xiahou Shang Xia Zhuguo, the only one that Da Ye could fight against should be Xiao Zhige.

After weighing for a long time, Chang Zaichang gritted his teeth: "Eighty-two is really not good, brothers are busy with this game, and the soup is not enough, seven-three, at least seven-three!"

Xiao Zhige's eyes flashed: "Deal. I'll take someone to Liangzhou with you tomorrow."

Chang Zaichang: "… "

I promise so quickly, I always feel like I've been pitted again.

After discussing the business, Chang Zaichang still winked and wanted to talk to An Changqing, but was warned by Xiao Zhige's eyes, and embarrassedly went to find a guest room to rest. Judging by his appearance, it shouldn't be the first time he has come to the General's Mansion.

After the people left, An Changqing said with some worry: "Going to Liangzhou again? Doctor Hu said that your injury still needs to be repaired."

Xiao Zhige bent his lips and whispered in his ear: "Don't worry, I won't be able to fight this time. I just bluffed Chang Zaichang."

Chang Zaichang and him were both under the command of Xia Zhuguo, and the two had been together for a long time. Chang Zaichang is not bad at leading troops, and has also kept Liangzhou in a safe and stable manner over the years. But Xiao Zhige knows that he has a fatal flaw, that is, he is not timid and seeks stability in everything.

He knew that he could not defeat Shang Que, so he rushed to him for help, but ignored that Shang Que might not fight him.

Xiji and Daye have been in peace with each other over the years. There will never be a war over an emerald mine now. And as far as he knows, although Xue Wuyi has been under the control of Xue Wuyi all these years, the older King Xiao Xiji is, the more he will be in power; and the rest of the royal family are secretly reluctant to lower Xue Wuyi, and have been looking forward to it. He fell. Coupled with Xue Wuyi's tough tactics over the years, which has moved the interests of many people, Xiji now looks calm on the surface, but in fact it is also turbulent.

At this juncture, Xue Wuyi will never give up. Most of the reason that Shang Que was sent to bring troops was to deter him.

After listening to his analysis, An Changqing was surprised, and felt that this man was thoughtful. Turning his eyes, An Changqing squinted at him, and asked casually, "Your Highness ever talked to General Chang about me?"

Xiao Zhige didn't expect his topic to change so quickly, and almost blurted out "yes". Fortunately, he finally reacted, stopped the words that rolled to his lips, and stared at him with brows.

"Why did you ask so?"

The longer An Changqing gets along with him, the deeper he gets to know him. Knowing that he didn't deny it immediately, the answer is probably yes. He hummed softly: "Your Highness only said that there is no such thing."

Xiao Zhige looked at him silently, thinking that he had said that he would not hide it from him again, rolled his Adam's apple a few times, and nodded with difficulty: "I did."

Before An Changqing could continue to ask questions, he sighed and continued: "When Chang Zaichang was in Yejing, I asked him to look at Dian Xiangfu and pass on your news to me."

"Didn't you always wonder why I misunderstood you like Li Haiyun? He told me."

"..." The amount of information in these words was too large, and An Changqing didn't know which one was better to be shocked first.

After reacting for a while, he stuttered and asked, "Then you... you knew me for a long time? Why... "

Xiao Zhige stared at his red-stained ears, the corners of his mouth curved into a pleasant arc, he couldn't help but reached out and pinched his earlobe, thinking about where to start: "Probably start when I'm nine years old. … You were young, maybe seven? Maybe you don’t remember.”

An Changqing looked at him blankly, and frowned slowly when he saw his serious expression. In his memory, there is no fragment of acquaintance with Xiao Zhige.

Xiao Zhige said: "In the autumn when I was nine years old, it was my father's birthday, the crown prince was left to supervise the country, and my father called a lot of people to go hunting in the Spring Mountain Palace. I met you in the palace."

At that time, his mother and concubine were still there, and although Xiao Zhige was not favored, he was still a little childish. When I saw the young An Changqing by chance, I liked him very much when I saw his cute little ball of jade snow.

Most of the children of the ministers revolved around his third younger brother. Although they were not young, they had already learned to flatter with the adults. Only the young An Changqing was ignorant and stayed in place, not flattering. Not flattering, silly and cute.

When Xiao Zhige saw him alone, he went to talk to him, only to find out that he was the third son of Prime Minister An. Everyone knows that there is an outstanding eldest son in the prime minister's residence, and there is also a second son who is often scolded by An Xiangguo for being stubborn. At that time, few people knew that there was also a third son.

However, Xiao Zhige closed his eyes with him, and seeing that he was a little timid, he took his own cakes and shared them with him.

Qiu Li lived in the palace for half a month. At that time, An Changqing often came to look for him to play. It wasn't until Xiao Zhige went to look for him that he was too late to find that An Changqing was blocked and bullied by the second young master of the An family and several young masters from other ministers' families. The third prince was watching the fun again.

The young An Changqing shrank into a small ball, and seemed to be extremely skilled in dealing with such a scene. Even if he was ridiculed and insulted without refuting, he bowed his head obediently and shrank into a small ball, looking pitiful and helpless. .

Xiao Zhige's heart lit up, he went up to fight with them, and finally the third prince also joined in. Although Xiao Zhige practiced martial arts, he was still young and weak, and suffered a lot of injuries.

After taking the person back to his bedroom, Xiao Zhige angrily asked him why he didn't fight back or hide.

An Changqing, who was still very young at that time, said to him seriously: "I hide this time, and I will be bullied even more next time."

Xiao Zhige didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, and only promised him angrily: when he returns to the palace, he will go to the emperor and ask him to come over as a companion to read.

At that time, he only thought that An Changqing would not be favored anyway, and he had no companion reading, so it shouldn't be difficult. But I didn't expect that things are impermanent, and many things will not go as they wish.

After returning to the palace, before he mentioned this to his father, he heard the queen say that his mother concubine Li Concubine had committed suicide.

After that, it was a few years when the army was chaotic and extremely difficult. Without the protection of his mother and concubine, he knew that there were more difficult days waiting for him. And he finally understood what the young An Changqing once said to him, "If you hide this time, you will be bullied even harder next time".

He grew up quickly, and when he was twelve years old, in order to get out of the control of the queen and the prince, he invited him to join the army at the border. After years of returning, he remembered his oath, but found that An Changqing had long since forgotten his childhood jokes.

And he failed to fulfill his promise, in the end he was ashamed, and then he paid attention to his news more or less intentionally or unintentionally. Later, I heard that he was having a hard time in the prime minister's mansion, and asked Chang Zaichang to help him secretly.

Later, in order to eliminate the fears in the palace, he confessed that he did not love women, and begged the empress dowager to marry him into the palace.

"That's all. I saw that you forgot all about it, so I didn't mention it again." Xiao Zhige said lightly.

An Changqing opened his eyes slightly, and suddenly he remembered that in the past winter, when his case was deducted, he could always find a basket of charcoal in the yard a few days later; Xiao Er often takes less money from him...

Later, when he got older, he realized that the pharmacy was the property of his first mother, Li's, and he wondered why Li's was so kind.

It turned out that Xiao Zhige asked people to do it in secret.

An Changqing tried hard to search for his past memories, but found to his annoyance that he really couldn't remember the bits and pieces related to him. In the winter when he was ten years old, in order to save An Xianyu who was pushed into the water, he fell into the water and suffered a severe cold, and he forgot many things after that.

"I'm sorry..." An Changqing was a little frustrated: "I can't even remember..."

The author has something to say: Well, that's it... Have you had a crush on me for a long time

Cowardly: ... um. (ears turn red
