Chapter 1698 Empty shell throne?

Qu Xiao also glanced at the baby.

The little baby even looked at him without blinking. It looked so strange.

Qu Xiao didn't understand what it meant and didn't say anything.

Xue Yan, on the other hand, smiled and said: "She will look at people she doesn't know like this, don't mind." Then he said: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to another place."

Qu Xiao: "Yeah."

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan took Qu Xiao to one of their houses in the town that was closest to where they were now.

After arriving at the house, ask someone to take Qu Xiao to freshen up.

About half an hour later, I saw Qu Xiao again.

At this time, Qu Xiao was already dressed in splendid clothes, and his whole body was clean. How could he still look like a beggar? However, he still did not wear imperial clothes, otherwise he would have known that he was an emperor at a glance.

There is no swag on his face and he is so clean, which makes his temperament somewhat cold and his actions extremely calm.

After saying the courtesy, he sat down.

This time, when I saw Qu Xiao again, I guess I had just met him, and the baby had remembered it. Therefore, at this moment, the baby who was being placed on the kang under the window by Jiang Yue, sitting and playing with a bunch of gadgets, was no different when Qu Xiao first came in.

He glanced at it, and then buried his little head again, grabbing the toys in front of him and playing with them.

Jiang Yue sat on the kang and looked after her little baby.

Xue Yan and Qu Xiao were both sitting on chairs not far away.

The person who was waiting in this courtyard hurriedly brought tea, and then withdrew with great respect. There were secret guards outside the door, and there were secret guards guarding all around, so there was no need to worry about the partition walls having ears.

Everyone knows that although Qu Xiao is young, he is a smart man with strategy and courage and cannot be regarded as an ordinary child. Therefore, after taking a sip of tea, Xue Yan did not mince words and went straight to the topic: "You are here like this

, just tell me what you mean."

Qu Xiao also put down his tea, then cupped his hands to Xue Yan and Jiang Yue, and said: "To be honest with you two, I want you to help me become a veritable emperor of the Dongxiao Kingdom."

Instead of being famous like now, 90% of the real power is not in his hands.

His father was constrained by others during his lifetime and could not make the decision on his own. Even at that time, his brother, the prince, was secretly killed by Xia Houzheng. His father did not dare to do anything to Xia Houzheng, and his father, the queen, could not make the decision even more.

What to do? Later, he became depressed and became ill. His health was getting worse day by day, so he ran away. Before he died, because he had only one son, he could only pass the throne to him, an empty shell, and asked him to promise that he must take it.

Only when you return to power can you die in peace.

He agreed, so he will find a way to do it.

Xue Yan was still direct: "Then tell me why we should help you."

Qu Xiao said: "No one in Dongxiao can sit in that position more legitimately than me, and no one can be more beneficial to you two than me as the king of Dongxiao. I have no intention of expansion. Even after I get back the power, I will only

They will guard the territory of Dongxiao Kingdom and prevent others from invading it. The two of them govern Daying. Even though Daying has cannons and gunpowder, it has not expanded a bit. This is obviously the same philosophy. We have coincided with each other. I guess how many of you have

I also know the current situation in Diandong Xiao Kingdom. I, the emperor, have no power. The power has already fallen to the regent Xia Houzheng as early as my father's reign, followed by my uncle Qu Chuo, who can sooner or later remove me from the throne.

The people who were pulled down and put on the throne, whether it was Xia Houzheng or Qu Chuo, were wild and ambitious. No matter which one of them became the emperor, once they had a way to deal with Daying's gunpowder and cannons, they would
