In the late autumn of October, Xia Yan was sitting on the white jade steps. He and I were facing the vermilion window with carved railings, and there was a beautiful night view outside.
Eighteen lanterns from Panlong Palace hover above our heads.
I heard Xia Yan's slow voice ringing in my ears.
"That year..."
That year Xia Yan was nineteen years old, which was a good age to be busy with sex. For the royal children, he should have been the father of his children at this age, but Xia Yan didn't even have a concubine.
Xia Yan's mother-in-law died early, so Xia Yan was sent to be raised by the queen not long after he was born. This seemed to be the case in the palace, and all children whose mothers died were given to the queen to raise. The queen had many heirs, including six sons alone.
Because there were so many, it was inevitable that Xia Yan would not take good care of him, resulting in Xia Yan being a virgin at the age of nineteen.
But this does not affect Xia Yan's normal courtship.
Just after his 19th birthday, Xia Yan's father sent Di Qing to invade the Rui Kingdom. The reason was that he fell in love with the Queen of the Rui Kingdom and wanted to have an affair with her. However, the Queen of the Rui Kingdom was very strong-willed and would not buy into Xia Yan's father's fault. Xia Yan
Dad then sent Di Qing to give them some clues. Xia Yan pretended to be studying with the army, but in fact he was traveling around.
The journey was pleasant, but I never thought that love would come so suddenly.
On the first day, the war drums were thundering, and the person who came to challenge was actually a delicate scholar, with thin skin and tender flesh, who looked like he would fall down if the wind blew.
At that time, Di Qing was already the God of War. How could he use a knife to kill a chicken? Xia Yan told Di Qing, "Just rest next to me and let me get in."
So Xia Yan wore linen and mourning, oh, he was wearing gold and armor and went to the battlefield.
I thought I could defeat the opponent within three moves, but who knew that after thirty moves, the opponent was still standing there.
At this time, Xia Yan didn't know who this white-faced scholar was!
She is Rui Xueji, the third daughter of the Queen of Rui. Rui Xueji started practicing martial arts at the age of seven and started running behind the general at the age of eleven. After all, Xia Yan did not enter the battlefield until he was nineteen years old, but Rui Xueji was already a veteran on the battlefield.
When Di Qing saw something was wrong, he immediately said, "Get down and let me get up."
How could the young and energetic Xia Yan swallow this breath and resolutely refused, "You continue to rest, I will do it! If I can't deal with him, I will not be a human being!"
The latter sentence was added by me myself. If Xia Yan had really said this sentence at that time, he would probably no longer be a human being.
How could the fledgling Xia Yan be Rui Xueji's opponent? After several rounds, Xia Yan was beaten and retreated, and almost lost his life.
For a person like Xia Yan who becomes more courageous with every setback, one failure does not affect his next failure.
After being beaten three times in a row, he went tirelessly to ask for a beating. In the end, Rui Xueji couldn't bear it any more. She felt that this young man was really pitiful. His head was bruised and bleeding after being beaten, but he still hit the muzzle of his own gun.
But unexpectedly, Xia Yan actually won the final battle and captured the opponent's general without any effort.
Only then did Rui Xueji realize that she had been tricked by the handsome young man in front of her.
The reality is very cruel. Although Rui Xueji is very powerful in combat, Xia Yan can definitely beat her in terms of strategy.
The previous failures were all small tricks used by Xia Yan to mislead the enemy. His real purpose was to capture the enemy general.
Rui Xueji was captured, and the country of Rui was like a piece of scattered sand.
But Xia Yan never expected that when he picked off the opponent's helmet with his silver sword, his long flowing hair would fall down.
Rui Xueji raised her head, while Xia Yan lowered his eyebrows.
