"Humph, you are thinking of me now." General Yan snorted coldly and put down the tea cup in his hand. His grandson had never been close to him, and he only had a good relationship with his mother. He was just blaming him for forcing his mother to enter the palace. He is simply a confused fool. If his mother had not entered the palace at that time, where did he come from and how could he have the status of a prince now? Now the old emperor has gone crazy and released all his sons to become vassal kings. The nine princes who were not favored in the past have suddenly become the king of a party. After being complimented a few times, they can no longer find their place. I really thought that in a place like Lanzhou, he How useful is the title of vassal king? He even refused to marry his cousin!
Seeing that his grandfather refused to answer, Yan Shizong took the letter from Commander Fang and opened it. The content of the letter was not long. It was indeed his cousin's handwriting, but the content... "Grandpa, why don't you take a look first?" General Yan glared at Yan Shizong, but he still didn't accept the letter, but the anger on his face faded a little. "Ahem, my cousin wants to borrow 30,000 troops from you, he..." As soon as Yan Shizong finished speaking, he was interrupted by General Yan. He threw the teacup towards Commander Fang who was waiting below and said angrily: "I won't borrow it!" Commander Fang grew up in the Yan Mansion and followed General Yan for several years. He knew his temper. His own prince had repeatedly refused to marry Yan Qingshu. The three young masters and ladies of the Yan family had not been able to marry him even after staying in Lanzhou for such a long time. If the prince changes his mind, he will definitely offend General Yan. Now that he wants to borrow troops, it will be difficult to do so. But he thought that the prince and the Yan family should be tied together. The prince surrendered in the letter and promised a lot of benefits to the Yan family. Although he still did not plan to marry Yan Qingshu as his princess, the Yan family was considered the prince's maternal family. In fact, there is no need to add marriage to maintain the relationship. Unexpectedly, General Yan didn't even want to read the letter and refused directly when he heard about borrowing troops. This was really unexpected.
After General Yan threw away the tea cup, he went to see Commander Fang who was standing silently below, "Fang Lei, right? I brought you back from the street to free you from your status as a beggar and let you grow up in my house. Later, I even sent you to serve as the captain of the bodyguard next to Xuan Lin. You must understand how you got your current status, and don’t forget about me.” Commander Fang knew that this would happen, so he immediately knelt down and said respectfully: "The general has shown me a great kindness. Even if I, Fang Lei, die, I will never forget the general's kindness." "Well, go down and tell your prince that I am old and useless. I am powerless to deal with all the troubles. I only hope that my descendants can have a happy marriage." When Commander Fang heard this, he knew that persuasion was useless, and because of his embarrassing status, he had no choice but to obey and retreat. After all, General Yan still didn't love the prince as a grandson. How could a grandfather be so harsh on his grandson? Forcing the prince to marry Yan Qingshu was just to completely bind the prince to the Yan family. When the time comes, The prince could only be completely controlled by him and became the puppet of the Yan family. After confirming that Commander Fang had left, General Yan changed his expression and leaned over to take the letter in Yan Shizong's hand and read it, "He is quite smart, but it's a pity that he came late." Xuan Lin is his first choice, but he is not the only one. Now that other princes have come to show their favor, Xuan Lin's side is no longer important. Yan Shizong recalled that during the time in Lianguzhai, he and his sister tried every means to promote cooperation, but Xuan Lin was either cold-faced or perfunctory, as if he could only see that Lanzhou, a place where no one shits, was being used by Wen Yunxi. Even if his sister married and became a princess, she would be left out by Xuan Lin, which was really not a good choice. "Grandpa, the Fourth Prince has sent someone again. Do you think you want to refuse?" Since the news that the old emperor was seriously ill spread, the fourth prince Xuan Wei and the fifth prince Xuan Zhuan have sent people one after another. The former wanted to marry Qing Shu, and the latter promised with his official position. Neither of them refused, and they were talking slowly. condition. Xuan Wei is now nearly thirty years old. He has married a princess long ago and has many wives and children at home. Now the power of his princess family is not as strong as before. In order to win the support of new forces, the original princess suddenly died of illness, and the vacant position of the princess became His new bargaining chip. If he just wanted to marry another daughter of the Yan family, Yan Shizong felt that the deal was a good deal and there was a possibility of negotiation. But Xuan Wei wanted to marry Qing Shu. As his brother, he really didn't want his sister to marry someone like Xuan Wei, so he didn't want his sister to marry someone like Xuan Wei. She doesn't want her marriage to be used as a bargaining chip by her family to expand their power like her aunt's. Although the previous marriage with Xuan Lin was considered a marriage, his own sister had admired Xuan Lin for many years. Xuan Lin's own character and appearance were outstanding, and he was still firmly controlled by the Yan family. Love, life will not be sad. General Yan looked at Yan Shizong displeased. His grandson was good at everything, but he was a bit kind to a woman. Qing Shu was indeed his most beloved granddaughter, but no matter how much he loved his granddaughter, she was from the Yan family. They all have to shoulder the family mission. "Shi Zong, the first thing you have to consider is what benefits the two princes can bring, instead of worrying about your biological sister. If you can't put the interests of the family first, don't come to me in the future." Yan Shizong was shocked when he heard this. There were many descendants of the Yan family, and only candidates who were favored by his grandfather as the next head of the family could discuss matters in front of him. If he was really rejected, he would lose the qualification to be the next head of the family. "My grandson knows that he was wrong, so he should remember his grandfather's teachings." General Yan agreed casually and ordered: "Let King Wei's people come in." "Yes." Yan Shizong's eyes flashed, and he bowed and retreated.
He does love his sister Qing Shu, but he is powerless in this matter, so he should be happy for himself. At the same time, Lianguzhai. "Your Majesty, something serious has happened!" Manager Liu dragged Zhang Li and knocked open the door of Xuan Lin's room, shouting in a panic, completely lacking his usual managerial demeanor. "Doctor Wen is trapped in the Black Song Forest!" Xuan Lin was shocked when he heard this, and the brush in his hand fell to the ground, staining the hem of his clothes and the uppers of his shoes. "Come here, prepare your horses!" Manager Liu let go of Zhang Zhi's collar and followed quickly. On the day the agreement was signed, Xuan Lin asked Fang Lei to borrow troops from General Yan Lao, and sent people to contact the Yanye tribe and the northern tribes to help Wen Yunxi stop the Red Moon Army stationed in the northwest, and even Guajiana was asked to send people to support Wen Yunxi who had returned to the Lixi tribe. The Red Moon Army stationed in various places were blocked midway. The main force of the Red Moon Army led by Sang Fu and the Liuyun Army of the Shuiyi tribe came to stop them. Moreover, judging from the news sent back, Sang Fu had been holding his troops in the southeast direction. Unexpectedly, Wen Yunxi would be surrounded by Sang Fu in just two days. Moreover, he was still trapped in the Black Song Forest. It wasn't that the forest was scary, but he was worried that Sangfu would set fire to the mountain. Even if Wen Yunxi had more elixirs, he might not be able to survive out of the forest.
