Xu Qing looked at the Xian Wang with unyielding determination and asked, "Don't you want to live forever, Your Majesty?"
Xian sighed and said, "How tiring is it to live for such a long time?"
Xu Qing: "..."
Why can a person who is tired of living go around telling others that he is "Xu Qinglan"?
At least I'm not tired of living.
The wise king took a look and said: "The elixir of immortality has never existed in ancient times. How many people have wanted to get this thing for thousands of years, but the result? No one has succeeded. Even if this thing really exists in the world, it must be extremely scarce. So why not give this thing
What about leaving it for those who need it most?”
Xu Qing asked tentatively: "Does your Majesty really need it?"
The wise king waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter whether he needs it or not, as long as I think he needs it."
Xu Qing: "..."
I wonder if Emperor Chu would be moved to tears upon receiving this love from his brother.
But according to the King of Chu who was forcibly forced to the throne, I guess he doesn't like immortality very much.
Wasn't the King Xian afraid that the Emperor of Chu, who had been living until he became impatient, was jealous that the King Xian could die so happily and pulled him out to whip his body?
But it was obvious that the wise king was not worried about this. At this time, he was looking at the little girl who was having fun playing with the telescope, with a doting smile on his face.
After a long time, the wise king continued to speak: "By the way, this kind of clairvoyance is still too big. There is no problem for the firearms camp to install this thing, but it will be very inconvenient for the scouts to carry this thing to detect the enemy's situation, and more work needs to be done.
It would be better to be smaller and more delicate, is it possible?"
Xu Qing said: "Of course it can be done, but it will take time. Now the craftsmen are on vacation at home, and they have to wait until spring before they can start construction."
The wise king nodded and said: "Well, now the grassland is so powerful that we have to defend it. Now our army has just finished fighting with Zhou State. The resources of the national treasury and the Guoshang Academy are almost exhausted. Zhou State's compensation has not yet been replenished. It is just that we are stretched thin."
At this time, if the grassland notices its weakness and suddenly attacks, our army will have a better chance of winning if we take more countermeasures."
Xu Qing said: "Yes."
The entrance to Prince Xian's Mansion
Emperor Chu was waiting in the carriage and looked at Wei Zhong who was coming back and asked, "Where is your brother? Why can't you even open the door to the palace during the Chinese New Year?"
Wei Zhong said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the concierge said that the prince, His Royal Highness and their family members had left in a carriage a few hours ago."
"Run away?" Emperor Chu was stunned and asked, "Where did you go during the Chinese New Year?"
Wei Zhong said: "I went to the Anding Marquis Mansion."
"Going to the Andinghou Mansion during the Chinese New Year?" Emperor Chu asked doubtfully, "When did the relationship between the emperor brother and that boy become so good? Are you able to bring your family there during the Chinese New Year?"
Wei Zhong asked: "Your Majesty, what should be done like this?"
Emperor Chu said: "That's all, let's go back to the palace for now. Xu Qing and the emperor brother, these two people don't know what bad things they are holding back for a while... I won't go to join in, and I can't spare the time to come over to pay him New Year's greetings. I'll go back."
palace!"
…
Andinghou Mansion
Xu Qing and Xian Wang are still having bad ideas.
Xiao Ruxue, who had had enough fun, rubbed her eyes with her little hand, then yawned and said, "Father, Xue'er is sleepy and needs to go back to her room to sleep."
The Xian Wang nodded and subconsciously waved his hand without stopping and said: "Go ahead, go ahead."
After Xiao Ruxue went down, the wise king smiled and said: "Because today is the Chinese New Year, this girl was so happy that she couldn't sleep last night. She got up early today. She also told me that she would stay up late today. Look,
, I can’t bear it now.”
Xu Qing smiled and said: "It's normal for the princess to like to play, it doesn't matter."
The Xian Wang nodded and looked at Xiao Ruxue who had left the pavilion, crossed the courtyard and entered the room, and then looked away with relief. Then he suddenly remembered something and turned his eyes back instantly: "
Wait, where did Xueer get the room in Andinghou Mansion? Why did she move so skillfully?"
Xu Qing said: "Xuan'er just prepared a guest room for the prince."
The Wise King: "Is your guest room a small courtyard for each person?"
Xu Qingqiang smiled happily and said: "My lord, please don't worry about these details. I will tell you about the artillery I just mentioned."
The Xian Wang waved his hand and said while walking downstairs: "We will talk about this later."
Andinghou Mansion
Xiao Ruxue's boudoir
Xiao Ruxue had just taken off her outer robe when she heard a knock on the door. Xiao Ruxue walked up to open the door and asked in surprise: "Why is father here?"
The King Xian looked at the soft and pink decoration inside. The design was even more exquisite than the boudoir in the palace...
When did my daughter find a home here?
The Xian Wang's throat moved and he asked, "Is this where you sleep on weekdays?"
Xiao Ruxue's fingers hanging under her body were lightly intertwined and hooked, and her big black eyes flashed: "It would be too time-consuming to go back after lunch... My daughter... My daughter will be here for a while at noon.
Take a rest, take a short rest..."
Well, I will never pester Xu Qing to tell stories during the break...
She is the only one here.
The wise king asked in confusion: "How come there are still traces of people living in the yard next to yours? Who has slept here?"
Xiao Ruxue said: "Next door, next door is Sister Bing'er's yard."
"Sister Bing'er?" The Xian Wang asked in confusion: "Where did sister Bing'er come from?"
Xiao Ruxue said: "Long Bing'er, father, have you forgotten?"
The wise king was immediately surprised and said, "You...you mean that General Long's daughter slept...at the Anding Marquis Mansion? Overnight?"
Xiao Ruxue nodded: "I slept for several nights..."
How many nights did you sleep?
The wise king was immediately excited and said: "You should go to bed early, we will go home tomorrow."
After saying that, the wise king walked away, but soon turned back and said: "By the way, you are not allowed to take off your clothes to sleep when you spend the night outside."
After finishing his instructions, the wise king left in a hurry.
How should the little girl in the house sleep?
Xu Qing was walking around on the roof, wondering if the little girl would spill the beans.
At this moment, King Xian hurriedly ran back and looked at Xu Qing. He stretched out his hand and pointed at him: "You, you, you... what do I say about you..."
Xu Qing's heart suddenly trembled... It's over. The little girl spilled the beans, but she still tentatively said: "Chen... what's wrong with you?"
The Xian King gritted his teeth and said: "A Yunying unmarried woman is actually willing to spend the night at your house. Are you...are you really stupid, or are you pretending to be stupid for me here?"
Xu Qing was suddenly shocked. After all, the little girl had indeed spilled the beans.
The wise king continued: "How come you don't know how to cherish such a woman? Tell me, as a minister of our Chu State, you think about it not for yourself, but for the sake of the Chu State. Is it possible that such a woman is not worthy of you?"
You? Why are you still hesitating?"
"Eh? Eh?! No..." Xu Qing's mind suddenly became a little confused: "My lord, do you mean you agree?"
The wise king said of course, "I have always agreed!"
