Someone answered, and Wu Rulong smiled and said, "In this battle, I will ask Duke Hu Guo to be the commander-in-chief of our three armies in Dajing."
"Old minister, take your orders."
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Ning glanced at Ye Hongxue before taking the order.
Zhao Kang looked at Xu Ning who was retreating. This old general who had guarded Jingguo all his life was now gray-haired.
Looking back now, Ye Hongxue once mentioned that it seems that starting from this period of time, there was a gap between the Xu family and Ye Hongxue because of Xu Qing's matter.
Looking at Ye Hongxue, Zhao Kang still couldn't help but stepped forward and gently called the other party's name a few times, just to give him a little response.
However, the woman's eyes remained calm.
After the court meeting, Wu Rulong deliberately asked to leave Ye Hongxue and Xu Ning behind.
Zhao Kang was still reluctant to leave and followed the two of them to the Royal Garden. This place was no stranger to him. .??.
"His Majesty!"
Seeing Wu Rulong and his son, Xu Ning and Ye Hongxue saluted one after another.
Wu Rulong waved his hand to signal the two of them to sit down, and then smiled and said, "The Protector and Hongxue, you two are the well-deserved pillars of our country. This tripartite expedition is of great importance, you two?"
Xu Ning frowned slightly, then glanced at Ye Hongxue, and then sighed, "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. He is the one to blame for what happened to Qing'er. What's more, every word and deed of a commander on the battlefield will affect the entire army, and I will How can you make things difficult for Mr. Ye?"
Wu Rulong glanced at Ye Hongxue, but unfortunately the latter did not say any words of gratitude to Xu Ning's expression. He could only smile helplessly, "Xu Gong's heart can be seen from the sun and the moon, and I understand it myself."
Wu Guanhai also tried to smooth things over, "What your Majesty said is that both Mr. Xu and Mr. Ye are the pillars of our Jingguo. With the two of them leading the army together this time, I believe great things can be accomplished!"
Xu Ning forced a smile, even though it was reasonable, but after all, his son's descendants were deposed, and he was still a little resentful. He stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I will retire first and prepare."
"XCMG walk slowly."
Wu Rulong nodded, waited until Xu Ning left, then looked at Ye Hongxue with a helpless expression, and said in a reproachful tone, "Mr. Xu has already given me the steps, and you girl don't know how to follow them!"
Ye Hongxue twitched the corners of her lips and said, "I know I was wrong."
This attitude made Wu Rulong want to curse, but Wu Guanhai couldn't help but snickered, and asked the emperor to find the opportunity: "Just laugh your ass off, go and practice martial arts. When I was as old as you, I was already in the upper level of the fourth rank!"
"Ahem, my father and I have to leave first."
When Wu Guanhai heard this, he quickly ran away. Looking at his son running away, Wu Rulong rolled his eyes and said, "Hongxue."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
Wu Rulong coughed, "Are you nineteen or twenty this year?"
Ye Hongxue frowned and said, "Nineteen, why did your majesty ask about this matter?"
"Nineteen, that's really quite a lot."
Wu Rulong pretended to sigh, "In the folk, these are all old girls. There are a lot of women like you in the folk!"
Ye Hongxue said calmly, "Your Majesty also said that she is a folk woman, not me, Ye Hongxue. Besides, why should Your Majesty worry about such a thing?"
"You girl!"
Wu Rulong glared, "I am your master no matter what. Once a master, you will always be a father. Of course I have to carefully consider your marriage! Didn't you hear just now? That old fox Chen Kai is planning to marry Guan Hai, you
If it’s too late, the queen’s position will belong to someone else in the future!”
"His Majesty!"
Ye Hongxue only felt a headache. Wu Rulong responded several times, and then said, "Xing Xingxing, I know you don't like Guanhai? What about the second brother Tingfeng? Although this kid is traveling abroad, he has never forgotten you!"
"If Your Majesty says this again, I will resign first!" Ye Hongxue said helplessly.
Wu Rulong chuckled, "You girl, can't you just give the master an accurate answer? There are so many young talents in this great scene, but you can't even take a fancy to any of them?"
Ye Hongxue: "Why are you so worried about this matter?"
Wu Rulong: "Nonsense, if you girl is taken away by someone from another country in the future, I won't be in big trouble! Let's make an agreement first. From now on, we can only marry people from Jingguo!"
"Your Majesty, just put your heart back in your stomach. I, Ye Hongxue, have only two wishes in this life. One is to expand the territory for the great scenery, and the other is to reach the top of the martial arts! Other than that, I don't want to do anything else. Besides, those so-called young talents you mentioned , all of them are prudes, and I don’t like them either.”
After hearing this, Zhao Kang, who was spitting at Wu Rulong, looked a little better now. An emperor doesn't care about the country and the country, so he just likes the moon, right?
Why don’t you open a dating agency?
Seeing Ye Hongxue leave the palace and come to the mansion, Zhao Kang thought for a while but still didn't go in.
His mind turned, and then he was in another environment.
Qi State.
The Office of the Minister of Rites.
Zhao Kang looked at the person in front of him with a slightly complicated expression.
Song Qingyan was washing clothes, and there was an eight or nine-year-old child beside her.
The child's eyes were filled with confusion and distress as he looked at his mother's exposed arms.
The scar asked weakly, "Mom, why don't you let me tell my parents about how they bullied us?"
"As long as dad is not at home, they will bully us. Aren't we a family?"
Song Qingyan smiled, wiped her hands and rubbed the child's head, "Be good tomorrow, as long as you are obedient, how can they not like you?"
The young Zhou Ming snorted, "Mom, you still spoke for them, I saw it, they beat you on your hands! I will tell my father when he comes back!"
"Nonsense!"
After knocking on Zhou Ming's forehead, Song Qingyan hugged him and whispered softly, "Be good tomorrow and don't bother your father for such a trivial matter. Besides, brother Zhou Gui is also very good to you?"
"That's true." The child muttered depressedly.
Song Qingyan said in a loving tone, "That's right. You said just now that your aunt and we are all one family, so we have to live in harmony and go to your aunt and others to say hello more often."
Zhou Ming nodded, "Mom, I understand."
"Good boy, you have to grow up quickly tomorrow, read more and practice calligraphy, and become a high official and a useful person to the country like your father."
After hearing this, Zhou Ming laughed and said, "I don't want to be an official! When I grow up, I want to make money. I want to make a lot of money, so that my mother can wear silk and gold hairpins! My mother, the day I went to the lake to play, I thought I saw you putting a jade
The hairpin was thrown away, why did you throw it away?"
Song Qingyan smiled, "It was given by someone who was very important to Mom in the past. Now the most important thing to Mom is your father and you, so I can't keep it."
"I don't quite understand." Zhou Ming scratched his head.
"It's okay if you don't understand..."
Looking at the woman in coarse cloth, Zhao Kang murmured to himself, "So this is what you looked like in the beginning."
