Chapter 1300 Don't Worry

"I will live up to your majesty's entrustment, and do my best to assist the regent and Da Zhou to finalize this matter!" Even though Zhong Xingxiao was ten thousand unwilling in his heart, he still had to act like he was willing on the surface, not to mention the bitterness in his heart.

Who would want to take the risk of losing his head in the Great Zhou if he could stay in Yandu safely?

If they can stay in Yandu, even if it is the last Dazhou, they will still attack Yanguo. At least there will be soldiers in front of them, and there will be a chance to escape. If they go to Dazhou, the emperor of Dazhou will be unhappy. It's gone!

Now Zhong Xingxiao can only pin his hopes on the Queen Mother, hoping that the Queen Mother can persuade His Majesty and the Ninth Prince to let him stay in Yandu.

The three of them went to see the Empress Dowager Yan together. When the Empress Dowager Yan heard that Zhong Xingxiao was going to Dazhou with Xiao Rongyan, she almost blurted out after being taken aback: "Master Zhong can't go! Too..."

Too dangerous……

When the words came to her lips, the Empress Dowager Yan swallowed the words again, looked at Xiao Rongyan, her palms tightened, and she was in a panic.

She knew it was too dangerous, but she still begged Xiao Rongyan to take this trip, how could she defend her elder brother at this time, and not allow her elder brother to go on the grounds of danger, such favoritism will definitely chill A Yan's heart.

Holding a teacup in his hand, Xiao Rongyan lowered his eyes, hiding his emotions behind the mask, how could he fail to understand the meaning of the Empress Dowager Yan's words, it was because he understood that he found it boring.

Murong Li couldn't help but speak under his fire: "Uncle Jiu can go to Dazhou for the sake of Yan, why can't uncle go?"

The Empress Dowager Yan glanced at her elder brother who was standing aside with lowered eyebrows, frowned and said, "It's not that I won't let your uncle go, but that your uncle has always been incompetent, and letting your uncle go is afraid of dragging your ninth uncle back." .”

"Uncle is good at communication, and he went to Dazhou with Uncle Jiu, and happened to be active among the courtiers of Dazhou, to help Uncle Jiu!" Murong Li had already made up his mind, not to give Dowager Yan another chance to speak, and directly to Zhong Xing Xiaodao, "Uncle, I will leave this matter to you!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this humble minister will definitely ruin our country of Yan!" Zhong Xingxiao knelt down and kowtowed again.

Empress Dowager Yan looked at her son and elder brother, but she was guilty and dared not look at Xiao Rongyan. She knew in her heart that this matter might just be settled like this, and there was no room for negotiation. He and A Li were separated from her.

After a while, Empress Dowager Yan bit the bullet and looked at Xiao Rongyan who had not spoken for a long time: "A Yan, Ah Li's uncle... I will trouble you to take care of me this way!"

After all, she was the one who betrayed Da Zhou this time, and Zhong Xingxiao was her elder brother. Zhong Xingxiao did not save the Emperor Da Zhou's life. If Bai Qingyan couldn't see him, he would take him My elder brother vented his anger, fearing that his elder brother would not be able to come back whole.

"Don't worry, Queen Mother, as long as I, Murong Yan, have breath, I will definitely save Lord Zhong's life." Xiao Rongyan casually put the teacup in his hand on the small table, and asked in a low voice, "So, may Queen Mother be more relieved?"

"Ayan..." Empress Dowager Yan was ashamed of her guilt, "You have to be careful! Sister-in-law and Ayan... are in Yandu, waiting for you and your brother to come back safely!"

"The Queen Mother must recover from her illness! The minister is not here... Your Majesty must have worked harder. If you have not come to pay your respects to the Queen Mother on time, please forgive me!" Xiao Rongyan stood up and saluted the Queen Mother. I still need to discuss with His Majesty and Lord Zhong, so I won’t disturb the Empress Dowager’s recovery here.”

"Okay! You are on business, I'm fine here!" Empress Dowager Yan raised the corners of her lips with difficulty.

"Queen Mother, I will take my leave first..." Murong Li also got up to bid farewell to Queen Mother Yan.

"Empress Dowager, my minister is leaving. I hope the Empress Dowager will take good care of her. I will return safely! The Queen Mother must not miss you!" Zhong Xingxiao bowed to his sister, only to feel that her sister was too soft. , it is completely possible to force him not to go, so that he can stay!

It seems that the only way to go back is to send a letter to the empress dowager before departure, so that she can find a way to keep herself.

Murong Li and Xiao Rongyan discussed, and the courtiers they took included the Minister and Minister of the Household Department, as well as officials from Honglu Temple.

After all, this time we are going to discuss the strategy of two countries and one country to decide whether to win or lose. The Secretary of the Household Department is definitely indispensable. Honglu Temple has always been responsible for reception and missions, so it is natural to bring along, plus a sociable uncle Master Zhong Xingxiao, the others, Xiao Rongyan, will not take it with them, and stay in the country.

Xiao Rongyan also made arrangements for the defense of the country. He said to Murong Li: "It is estimated that the main force of the Yan Kingdom who is still in Xiliang for a while will not come back, so we can only transfer all the troops that can be mobilized in the territory of the Yan Kingdom. On the border of Yan State, especially the line from Da Zhou's garrison to Yan's capital, the troops must be concentrated! Just in case something unexpected happens..."

Murong Li nodded. From the corner of his eye, he looked at Zhong Xingxiao who stretched his neck to look at the map, but he didn't pay much attention to it. On the contrary, Wang Jiuzhou came over with hot tea, served Zhong Xingxiao tea with a smile, and held Zhong Xingxiao with his body. Xingxiao blocked it.

Xiao Rongyan has already made arrangements for what Zhong Xingxiao can hear, and Xiao Rongyan has already written what Zhong Xingxiao can’t hear. Wait for Wang Jiuzhou to hand it over to Ah Li before heading back to Dazhou. The next Xiao Rongyan will be able to make arrangements when he returns home.

Three days later, the regent set off for the Great Zhou, and the team was mighty.

Murong Li even arrived at the Prince Regent's Mansion early in the morning.

Murong Lek came too early, Xiao Rongyan packed his luggage last night and arranged state affairs, he squinted for a while until dawn, when he heard that Murong Li had arrived, Xiao Rongyan got up and ordered someone to change clothes, and went to the front hall to meet Murong Li.

Yue Shi directly brought Murong Lek to Xiao Rongyan's yard, seeing his Jiu Shu had washed and dressed and stepped out of the main room, Murong Li smiled and said, "Ninth Uncle!"

Xiao Rongyan didn't wear a mask, because he stayed up all night, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and he felt a little tired, he beckoned Murong Li to come over: "Why are you here?"

Murong Li smiled and took a heavy brocade box from Wang Jiuzhou's hand, and trotted to Xiao Rongyan: "Uncle Jiu, let's go in and talk!"

Xiao Rongyan glanced at Murong Li, nodded, and personally opened the curtain for Murong Li.

After the two entered, Yue Shi asked the other servants to retreat, leaving only Xiao Rongyan and Murong Li's uncle and nephew in the room.

Murong Li then said: "Uncle Jiu, this is a gift from me to my younger brother and younger sister, to congratulate them on their birth, and please ask Uncle Jiu to help bring it to younger brother and younger sister!"

Xiao Rongyan was slightly taken aback, took the extremely heavy wooden box, opened it and looked, inside was a pair of jade pendants and a pair of jade stones that could be engraved with seals.
