Gulp-

Her abdomen growled.

Su Xiaoxiao hummed. “I feel… I’m hungry.”

Wei Ting took a deep have a look at her abdomen. May this youngster even be just a little satan..

Unimaginable. She should be a comfortable and cute little lady.

Wei Ting obtained out of the carriage and went close by to purchase her a field of osmanthus cake. Simply as he was about to take a seat again within the carriage, one other carriage drove over.

“Basic Wei, please wait!”

Wei Ting frowned barely and rotated. He noticed Eunuch Quan get out of the carriage with a smile and cup his palms at him. “Greetings, Basic Wei.”

As he spoke, he seemed on the osmanthus cake in Wei Ting’s hand after which on the carriage. He smiled and requested. “Madam Wei can also be within the carriage. proper?”

Wei Ting requested calmly, “What’s the matter?”

Eunuch Quan smiled and stated, “His Majesty has summoned Basic Wei and

Madam Wei to the palace.”

Within the Imperial Examine, Xiao Duye, who had rested for your entire evening and had barely recovered some vitality, reported the battle scenario on the border to Emperor Jing Xuan.

Though Emperor Jing Xuan was within the capital, battle studies got here from the border occasionally. What Xiao Duye stated was principally the identical as within the battle studies. A minimum of, Xiao Duye didn’t lie when he attacked first in Northern Yan and in a number of essential battles.

There was no disappointment or pleasure on Emperor Jing Xuan’s expression. This confounded Xiao Duye. He had spent a Herculean effort to ascertain battle achievements and nearly misplaced his life. Why didn’t his father look as joyful as when he conquered the southwest?

May it’s that the credit score for defeating Northern Yan was not as a lot as calming the inner strife?

It couldn’t be…

The interior strife was a small mess, however Northern Yan was an enemy nation.

Xiao Duye was puzzled.

Emperor Jing Xuan stated, “Did you actually order the assault on Northern Yan?”

Xiao Duye cupped his palms and bowed. He stated solemnly, “Northern Yan was extraordinarily smug. It really let Tuoba Lie lead a 100,000-strong military into Damaged North Move, invade our border, and seize our metropolis. If I don’t take revenge, I’m not a gentleman. Furthermore, I’m a prince of the Nice Zhou. I naturally have to guard the rivers and mountains of the Nice Zhou and the folks of the Nice Zhou!”

Emperor Jing Xuan continued, “Why didn’t you employ Leng Kui?”

He had used Leng Kui. Didn’t he go to the battlefield to kill enemies properly?

Xiao Duye rapidly realized that his father was referring to not needing Leng Kui to be the commander-in-chief of the three armies.

Was his father… questioning him or asking?

Xiao Duye couldn’t determine what Emperor Jing Xuan meant for a second, so he might solely say honestly, “Father, when Leng Kui was the commander-in-chief, he repeatedly failed. Not solely did he let Tuoba Lie assault Damaged North Move, however he additionally misplaced the border metropolis. The morale of the troopers fell enormously, so I elected Qin Canglan because the commander-in-chief.”

Emperor Jing Xuan stated, “What’s occurring with Leng Zhao and Leng Jue?”

Xiao Duye stated, “Leng Jue fled on the final minute, inflicting the troopers to die tragically. Jing Yi was captured, so it could be tough to energise the military if we didn’t kill him! As for Leng Zhao, he was critically injured when preventing Tuoba Lie. He was delirious and ran out to drown within the properly.”

When Leng Zhao died, he was sleeping within the tent. He solely heard the information the subsequent morning.

Everybody stated that he had drowned himself and couldn’t discover proof of some other prospects, so it was determined.

Emperor Jing Xuan calmly picked up a memorial. ‘Why did I hear that there’s one thing unusual about this?”

“There’s one thing unusual…” Basic Xiao Duye advised the reality. “When he ran out, he stated quite a lot of nonsense. He stated… that he was the one who leaked the whereabouts of Wei Xu and his sons again then, inflicting them to be ambushed by the Northern Yan military. Furthermore, on this battle towards the Northern Yan, he additionally revealed Wei Ting’s battle plan to Helian Ye, inflicting Wei Ting to be ambushed. The phrase is that… he dedicated suicide to keep away from punishment.”

“Sufficient.” Emperor Jing Xuan put down the memorial.

Xiao Duye fell silent.

Eunuch Quan came visiting and reported that Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao had arrived.

Emperor Jing Xuan requested Xiao Duye to return to the residence to relaxation and summoned Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao into the Imperial Examine.

It had solely been two months since they final met, however Emperor Jing Xuan had modified just a little. His eyes had been puffy and his complexion seemed rosy, however he was really just a little weak.

It was stated that not too long ago, Emperor Jing Xuan had turn into increasingly more obsessive about the artwork of immortality. He took the drugs despatched by the Imperial Preceptor every single day and two concubines within the harem had been pregnant. This made Emperor Jing Xuan imagine that he had returned to his youth.

“I heard that you just had been injured. Are you feeling higher?” Emperor Jing Xuan stated. Wei Ting bowed and stated, “I’m high quality. Thanks on your concern, Your Majesty.”

Emperor Jing Xuan smiled. “You probably did job with Helian Ye. I heard that the 2 of you even went to the battlefield and subdued some troops on the border. It’s stated that these troops are very courageous and don’t appear to be unusual scattered troopers.”

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him.

It was unimaginable for this emperor to not be afraid of the Wei household for a day.

After they had been coping with King Nanyang, he had clearly pretended to be beneficiant and returned the Commander’s Seal to Wei Ting. Now, he was pursuing the matter of them incorporating the troops.

Wei Ting stated calmly, “His Highness Liang was surrounded by Northern Yan, and Basic Leng gave up Jia County and ignored His Highness’s life and demise. I and Madam had no selection however to assemble some folks on the border. Talking of which, it’s unusual. A lot of these folks had been clearly troopers of our Imperial Courtroom. They’d gone to the battlefield and killed enemies, however they had been expelled from the army camp for no motive. They didn’t even have compensation. I feel there’s one thing unsuitable with this matter. Your Majesty, please order a radical investigation!”

These phrases had been telling Emperor Jing Xuan that if he didn’t incorporate the troops, his son would have died way back.

Additionally, he stated that they had been courageous, however weren’t the veterans of the Imperial Courtroom courageous? It was the Leng household who turned them into scattered troopers. Why didn’t he settle the Leng household first?

Emperor Jing Xuan was speechless.

He glanced on the two of them and stated calmly, “Alright, I didn’t ask the 2 of you to denounce you. You’ve contributed to killing the enemy. If I deal with you badly, gained’t I disappoint the troopers and commoners on the border? Inform me, what would you like?”

Wei Ting stated, “It’s my responsibility to serve Your Majesty. I gained’t take credit score.”

Emperor Jing Xuan checked out Su Xiaoxiao. “What about you?”

Su Xiaoxiao stated, “Oh, I don’t take credit score.”

Emperor Jing Xuan relaxed.

He didn’t wish to give the 2 of them any rewards, however on the identical time, he seemed ahead to what they wished. This was as a result of solely by asking for it could they appear smug.

“However Your Majesty.” Su Xiaoxiao took out an inventory. “Please reimburse the troopers’ wage. I used to be the one who paid for the Leng household’s lack of provisions and silver. Because the ruler of a rustic, you gained’t owe me a debt, proper?”

Emperor Jing Xuan was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao left the Imperial Examine first. Wei Ting stayed. Emperor Jing Xuan nonetheless had one thing to ask Wei Ting. Coincidentally, he had one thing to debate with Emperor Jing Xuan.

Not lengthy after Su Xiaoxiao got here out, she ran into Princess Hui An.

Princess Hui An was sporting a lightweight yellow palace gown with a young pink cloak over it. She was as lovely as a peach blossom. She picked up her skirt and walked over rapidly. “Little sidekick!”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and bowed. “Princess Hui An.”

Princess Hui An checked out her anxiously. “I heard that you just went to conflict.. Have been you injured?”
