If we go to Southern Chu to fight for the throne, this goal is too big!
Xie Yuan shook his head, "I haven't thought so at the moment. After all, the Nangong family has too much power, and the Nanchu clan is eyeing the heir to the throne. They have always wanted the King of Nanchu to adopt an heir from the clan, and they have been arguing endlessly in the past few years.
.Although you have the secret guards your mother left for you, facing the Nangong family and the Nanchu clan is still like a mantis trying to control a chariot. I don’t want you to get into deep danger."
Su Rong corrected him: "Since ancient times, except for women in the harem who came to power when relatives were involved in politics, no woman has ever succeeded to the throne. You should say this."
Xie Yuan glanced at her and said angrily, "I asked you to read history earlier, but you never had the patience to read it. Small countries are different from big ones. In the history of Southern Chu's vassal country, there are no women who have taken power. If you inherit the throne, there will be precedents.
"Xun."
Su Rong was shocked, "Ah? Is that so?"
She really hasn't read the history books properly. If this is the case, then she has the right to inherit. She finally understood, "This should be the fundamental reason why Queen Nanchu wants to kill me most, right?"
"Maybe." Xie Yuan nodded, "In short, given her status, there is no reason not to kill you no matter what the reason is."
Su Rong suddenly felt that it was unjust that Queen Nan Chu had traveled thousands of miles and persisted for several years to kill her. Her bloodline of King Nan Chu was really valuable when she was the only one.
She sighed for a moment, "You mean the secret guard my mother left for me? It shouldn't be just Fengling, right?"
"Back then, Prince Mingrui was born with a weak body and his bones were always in bad shape. Finally, he reached the point where no medicine or stone could cure him. Knowing that he would not live long, he specially created a secret guard to protect his only daughter, Princess Zhenmin. This team
There were five hundred secret guards. However, in the Wei Dynasty, almost half of them were lost. Later, your mother no longer had the energy to train her and trusted me, so she handed over this secret guard to me to take charge of it. Over the years, I have
The number of people has been completed. The Fengling you met today is the leader of the secret guards. Although he is young, he has the highest martial arts skills, the most stable behavior, and a pleasant temperament. He should be quite suitable for your temperament. I chose him specially for you.
people."
Su Rong thought that Fengling was indeed quite good. It must have taken a lot of effort to train such a person.
Xie Yuan stood up, walked to the bedside, and handed a token to her, "This is the Fuhua Order. I originally planned to find an opportunity to give it to you, but I didn't expect that you had just passed the age of 18, and you were out of here in the blink of an eye."
Kind of something."
Su Rong glanced at it, unable to move, "You can keep it for me first, and then give it to me after I'm healed."
"I will send someone to the prefect's mansion later to inform you that you will live in my mansion from today on, and you can keep it by yourself! From today on, you will hold the flower-supporting order, Fengling and the five hundred secret guards.
I will listen to you alone, even I am no exception." Xie Yuan stuffed the token next to her pillow, "You are tired after talking for so long, please rest! If you have any questions, I will talk to you when you feel better.
you say."
Su Rong nodded, "Okay!"
Aunt Zhao asked Su Rong at this time, "Miss Qi, do you want some water?"
Su Rong felt thirsty after saying so many words, so she nodded, "Excuse me, mama."
Aunt Zhao quickly got up, poured a glass of water for Su Rong, fed her with a spoon to drink, and asked her, "It's almost noon, are you hungry?"
Su Rong shook her head. After such a long time, the medicine was probably taking effect and she felt sleepy again. "I want to sleep for a while."
Aunt Zhao nodded, "Then you can sleep! The old slave is guarding you outside. If you are hungry, just call me. From now on, the old slave will stay with you in Xie Mansion to recuperate from your injuries."
Su Rong responded and closed her eyes.
Xie Yuan was surprised that Aunt Zhao called herself Lao Shen to him, but to Su Rong, she called herself Lao Nu.
After Su Rong fell asleep, Xie Yuan and Aunt Zhao walked out of the room together.
Walking to the outer painting hall, Xie Yuan asked Aunt Zhao, "Are you planning to stay with Xiao Qi to take care of her from now on?"
Aunt Zhao must have told Xie Yuan what she told Su Rong to take her in.
Xie Yuan nodded, did not object, and said sincerely: "It is indeed a good thing for Xiao Qi that grandma can stay with Xiao Qi. Thank you very much, grandma."
Aunt Zhao shook her head, "From now on, I will serve the Queen Mother as I do, taking care of Miss Seventh. Don't worry, sir!"
Xie Yuan believed it, "Have you told your nephew and niece?"
"As I said, I came here in a hurry today and didn't pack my things. I will go back to pack my things in the evening." Aunt Zhao said.
Xie Yuan nodded, "I will arrange for someone to accompany grandma back in the evening."
Aunt Zhao nodded and thanked her.
Xie Yuan sent someone to report to the prefect's mansion, saying that from today on, Su Rong would stay in his mansion for a while. The eldest lady was used to it, but Su Rong became suspicious and hurried to Xie's mansion.
When I met Xie Yuan and saw that he didn't look well, Su Taishou immediately asked: "Old Xie, Xiao Qi obviously went to see Zhou Gu out of the city, why didn't he even return to the house, and just said he would stay here for a while? Is it her?
What happened?"
Xie Yuan did not hide anything from Su Taishou and nodded, "She sent Zhou Guhou away and was assassinated by twenty Nanchu assassins at Shiliting outside the city. She was seriously injured..."
Su Taishou's expression changed drastically, and he asked anxiously: "What about her?"
"We have asked a doctor to bandage her. There is no danger to her life, but she will need to recover from her injuries for half a month."
Su Taishou asked: "Are they sent by the Queen of Nanchu again?"
"Probably, from Nanchu."
Su Taishou was furious, "How could the Queen of Nanchu dare to kill her so blatantly in broad daylight? She didn't have any scruples at all?"
"It's probably because she knew Xiaoqi was old enough and became anxious, or maybe there were changes within the Nanchu Dynasty that made it difficult for her to worry about anything anymore, so she started to kill her."
Su Taishou said: "I'm going to see Xiao Qi."
"She just fell asleep. When she wakes up, you can go over." Xie Yuan stopped him.
Su Taishou stopped when he heard this and felt anxious, "For so many years, Xiao Qi has been assassinated by her. A good little girl should be pampered, but she has never been able to settle down. Now she is even more...
It’s getting worse. What do you think we should do?”
"Don't worry, there is always a way. Although there have been constant killers from Nanchu over the years, Xiao Qi has grown up safely. She is not a delicate daughter who cannot bear a little bit of wind and rain."
Su Taishou was heartbroken, "I told you back then that you are a good little girl, but you let her resist the killer by herself at such a young age. She is also a big-hearted person. She always lied to her mother and said she was fighting with someone.
, sometimes even I hide it.”
"She was raised too delicately. With her life experience, even if we protect her and grow up, she will be easily broken. At our age, we can't protect her for a lifetime. Sooner or later, she will have to rely on herself. She will have to undergo some training and training at a young age.
There's nothing wrong with it. Only in this way can she be able to withstand her background and weather the storm." Xie Yuan understood Su Taishou's mood, "How can you tolerate me when you think of me? But you have to train her like this. You
It can be seen that she killed nineteen of the twenty assassins today. The last one asked Fengling to come to the rescue because she did not have a weapon in her hand. Even Fengling has been training since she was a child. If she encounters
Today's killers can only do this."
Su Taishou was shocked, "When did Xiao Qi become so powerful?"
Xie Yuan said with a smile: "In the place where you can't see it, it slowly grows so powerful." He added, "Prince Mingrui's secret guard is passed into her hands. If she can't let her men
It is difficult to convince the entire secret guard to swear loyalty to the death. Now that the secret guard is convinced by this incident, he must be convinced that respecting her as his master is a bad thing, but it is also a good thing."
Su Taishou was speechless for a moment, "She grew up in front of me. Every time I go away, it only lasts ten days and a half at most."
He couldn't believe it, "Xiao Qi is so thin, with thin arms and legs. Oh, how could this kid be so powerful? If it were on me, I wouldn't be able to kill anyone." He said, admiring Xie Yuanlai and convinced him.
He said orally, "Lao Xie, you are right. A parent's beloved son has far-reaching plans. When the princess left you alone, she was right to entrust Xiao Qi to your education. I am not as good as you."
Xie Yuan smiled and shook his head, "You don't have to belittle yourself. The princess has seen through your temperament, so she allowed you to raise her and let me teach you. You are a loving father. You have allowed her to grow up over the years and given her father's love. You can't do it."
lack."
Su Xu sighed, "Hey, that's true, but speaking of it, Chu Rong is the luckiest one."
He and Su Xu, one is the adoptive father and the other is the uncle, Chu Rong is her biological father.
