Pretending to be indifferent

Xiao Jingcheng has already made plans to return to Baiya Town.

If it weren't for Xue Mei, he wouldn't have lived in Kyoto for so long.

Now, in the year I was sick, I have lived there for almost three years.

Fortunately, all the brothers in the family were brave, and the Guirong Shanyu of the Xiongnu were mainly cultivated and did not cause any trouble.

There were several minor conflicts by chance, which were also caused by the small tribes and defenders in the Huns. Perhaps it was just the general who was unwilling to give up or a small test.

Everything is peaceful.

He said to Xue Mei, "When you get rid of your conscience, I will definitely arrange everything."

Xue Mei has one year left to get rid of the service.

A whole year.

Her mother died in the first month of last year. One year and seven months away, her filial piety period is only one year left.

If you discuss marriage in July next year, you can get married at the end of the year.

"Arranged?" Xue Mei didn't understand this.

"I will completely abandon the matter of Baiya Town and move back to Kyoto." Xiao Jingcheng said.

"What should I do when Baiya Town?"

"So, I plan to kill Guirong in one year, and then send someone to divide the Huns into ten tribes, so that they can kill each other, and it will never be a climate." Xiao Jingcheng said.

Xue Mei: "..."

"I have already started the matter of division, and now I am just waiting to close the net." Xiao Jingcheng said again, "Don't worry, this matter can be accomplished. The only difficult thing is to kill Guirong.

This man is cautious, elusive, and it is difficult to get close to him. He has seen me again, and I cannot get in and kill him like Kill Hongjiti."

Xue Mei pondered for a while.

Maybe, she could be the assassin.

Gui Rong knew her, and she took the opportunity to be captured, killed him and hid in the space.

The space stores water and dry food for a long time. As long as the Huns do not keep guarding that position, she can find a way to evacuate.

She could even run a little bit.

I ran for a distance first, then disappeared on the spot after being discovered, and ran for another while the night was dark.

In short, getting out is not difficult.

Xue Mei did not tell Xiao Jingcheng what he thought.

"...Don't worry, I will come back to marry you." Xiao Jingcheng said.

Xue Mei: "..."

She wished she could cover Xiao Jingcheng's mouth.

"I will come back to marry you" is a classic flag for thousands of years. In a movie and TV series, when a character says this line, it means that the screenwriter sent him a death notice.

"What?" Xiao Jingcheng felt a little misunderstood when he saw Xue Mei's speechless look.

Xue Mei told Xiao Jingcheng this flag.

Xiao Jingcheng was speechless when he heard this: "Can you pour out the water in your mind?"

This is also Xue Mei's word.

Last time Xue Mei said this to her fifth brother, Xiao Jingcheng heard it.

He takes it for himself.

Xue Mei: "..."

Because he might have to eat yellow sand, Xue Mei decided not to have a good experience with him.

It was late at night, and Xue Mei finished talking about the serious things and was about to go home to sleep.

Xiao Jingcheng personally sent her back.

Both of them had their own thoughts and had nothing to say overnight.

The court did not know the news that Liao Zhen escaped. The emperor raised a secret spy, which was not as good as Xiao Mingyu, Xue Chi and others. After all, the emperor was always in the palace.

The court just heard that Liao Zhen was dead.

Since Liao Zhen was dead and the Liao family was also taken away, the emperor planned to let the matter go.

The wife of the Liao family went into the palace to cry to Empress Dowager Hu, saying that Empress Dowager Hu was very cold.

"Who could have thought of natural disasters and man-made disasters? You have a son, don't be too sad and be more open-minded." Empress Dowager Hu's words were straightforward but unpleasant.

Mrs. Liao went back crying.

"The Empress was so smart at the time, but unfortunately she left early and did not leave her own son and half of her daughter. Otherwise, we would have to be so angry?" Mrs. Liao complained to her mother-in-law.

At this time, she didn't know that if Liao Zhen's departure with the Huns were exposed, their whole family would be imprisoned.

Maybe by then, they would rather Liao Zhen die.

The court did not pay too much attention, but Xiao Jingcheng told the emperor about this.

The emperor was furious.

However, the emperor and Liao clan were also indestructible, and Empress Liao tied them together.

It is best not to tell Liao Zhen about this matter in the court.

"Your Majesty, I will set off soon." Xiao Jingcheng said, "Liao Zhen has been away for three years and he knows a lot.

The master is idle at home, and the brothers in the family are younger. I am afraid they can't stand it and are deceived by the Huns. I need to be in charge of myself before I can feel at ease."

The emperor nodded.

At this time, naturally, only Xiao Jingcheng is in Baiya Town will he feel at ease.

"When will you set off?" the emperor asked.

Xiao Jingcheng: "There are some trivial matters. Liao Zhen will not instigate the Huns to send troops in a short while. They are most likely to invade in winter. I want to set out again after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

That is one month later.

The emperor agreed.

As Xiao Jingcheng said, there was no war on the frontier.

Xiao Jingcheng went to take charge, but he was just preparing for the future.

He has been in Beijing for some time and is still in love with Princess Chengyang, so naturally he has a lot to deal with.

Unlike in the past, every time I came back, I just stayed for a short time. Sometimes I didn’t even go back to the palace and lived in the inn of the Ministry of War.

Leave at any time, feel free and easy.

Xiao Jingcheng also went to Empress Dowager Qi's harem to explain the situation to her.

Empress Dowager Qi felt a deep feeling of reluctance in her heart.

However, that was his son's own job. Empress Dowager Qi was light and showed no emotion at all, just like before: "Then you clean up well. Everything in the house must be arranged properly, and the Ai family will also send someone to take care of you from time to time."

There was no reluctance to leave, nor did I try to keep it.

Xiao Jingcheng couldn't feel much maternal love from her, and he became accustomed to it.

He nodded: "I know. Mother should take care of her."

"I went to the palace to celebrate the festival during the Mid-Autumn Festival." Queen Mother Qi said again.

Because she spoke plainly, Xiao Jingcheng also casually said: "No. Mid-Autumn Festival may be with Mei'er, after all, she is leaving."

"Let her come too." Queen Mother Qi said.

She said this a little anxiously.

When Xiao Jingcheng looked at her, she had turned her eyes away, her thin eyelids sank down, and that indifference enveloped her.

Xiao Jingcheng remembered the concern she was by his bed when she was unconscious, and then remembered Xue Mei that his eyes were always cold, and he obviously had no meaning.

He suddenly realized that his mother was not so heartless.

However, their mother and son look more indifferent than others, which is always misunderstood.

Xiao Jingcheng didn't know whether his guess was accurate, so he took a little temptation: "Okay, Mei'er said she wanted to see the lanterns and singing and dancing in the palace."

Queen Mother Qi's eyebrows raised slightly and the corners of her lips were full of smiles, and she was very happy.

She clearly wanted Xiao Jingcheng to come to the palace.

Xiao Jingcheng felt a little sad when he saw her like this.

"I can't see any new look in the lanterns in the palace every year. Only those outside the palace are interested." Queen Mother Qi said, "Let Mei'er come too. The Ai family gave her a decree to go to the palace to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with Ai's house."

Xiao Jingcheng said that is.

This matter is right, and Xiao Jingcheng left Wanjing Palace.

He thought to himself that he went to Xue Mei and told her about the matter.

Xue Mei knew what was going on as soon as she heard it.

"Okay." Xue Mei said, "I am indeed very curious about the Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace."
