Yuan Shuolin stopped joking and said to them: "Let's go, I have prepared a banquet for you to wash away the dust."
With that said, the group of people entered the city and arrived at Prince Jing's Mansion.
Yuan Jiahe was tired from traveling all the way and the weather was hot. She loved to be clean. After returning to Prince Jing's Mansion, she went to take a shower and change clothes first.
Xuandu and Yuan Shuo were drinking tea in the flower hall, but the atmosphere in the flower hall was not as solemn as before.
Yuan Shuolin looked at Xuandu and said, "I received your letter. Are you really planning to do this?"
Xuandu nodded: "I can no longer hide the matter in Mobei, and I received a letter from Wang Zefang, saying that the Mobei cavalry has not retreated from the Changzhou border and often disturbs the people on the border.
Mobei lives in the desert, and they are all brave and good at fighting. Changzhou's military strength is simply not enough to fight against them."
Yuan Shuolin frowned and asked with some confusion: "Beichen and Nanyue have reached a marriage agreement. Does Mobei really dare to raise troops to invade? Who gave them the courage?"
"It's ambition."
Xuandu said: "Mobei is barren and windy, so they naturally covet our Beichen territory. In the past, they just couldn't find a reason to raise troops."
You must know that war also depends on the right time, the right place, and the right people. No one is willing to fight. Unless there is enough reason and the support of the subjects, the war will be defeated.
Now that Beichen has not sent the princess to get married as promised, this is the best reason for war.
Yuan Shuo Lin sighed: "But you..."
Xuandu interrupted him: "You don't have to worry about me. I only have one request. Help me take good care of Jiahe and don't let her return to Beijing."
Yuan Shuo was shocked: "You want to hide it from her? She will know such an important thing sooner or later. You also know her temperament. I can't guarantee what she will do after knowing the truth? Do you want to think about it again?
consider?"
Xuandu said: "I think very clearly, I am doing this not only for Jiahe, but also for Beichen's world."
Yuan Shuo looked at him and was deeply shocked. He stood up, rolled up his sleeves and saluted Xuandu solemnly: "On behalf of Jiahe and the people of Beichen, I respect you!"
Xuandu helped him stand up: "This is what I should do."
Yuan Shuolin didn't think so: "What should you do? If you hadn't met Jiahe, you would still be a monk now. Even if you have the world in mind, you wouldn't be able to make such a decision.
Xuan Du, I really admire you. For my sister, you took off your cassock and put on a Taoist robe. You stayed by your father's side, helping Xiao Chengyi and supporting Jing Xuan. It's our luck to meet you, and it's my sister too.
blessing."
Xuan Du smiled slightly: "It's my blessing. Did you know that I had a dream, in which Jiahe and Qin Mobei died tragically there in the end.
I still remember the tragic situation when she died. I couldn't save her in the dream, but I will never let her step into Mobei in this life."
He had the opportunity to be reincarnated just to save his Aluan, but there seemed to be a force pulling him from somewhere, and some things couldn't escape no matter how hard he tried.
Originally, he thought that by letting Shen Wanyue replace Jiahe, he could avoid the fate of Jiahe's marriage, but who would have thought that Shen Wanyue actually escaped.
In this case, he would kill all the dangers for her and let her completely get rid of this fateful entanglement.
Yuan Shuo Lin was stunned for a moment, feeling very emotional in his heart. How deep of love is there to make Xuan Du hold on to a ridiculous dream?
Even at the expense of...
He took a deep breath, cleared his mind and asked: "When do you plan to return to Beijing?"
Xuan Du lowered his eyes, with a hint of reluctance: "I will stay with her for a few days."
It only takes a few days. I don't know when it will be time to return after we say goodbye. He just wants to stay with her for a few more days.
However, Xuandu didn't expect that even a few days would be a luxury.
