Turning misfortunes into good fortune starts with seizing the direct descendants in Kowloon

Lu Mingyuan finished the contents of the food box quickly, while Qi Muxue held her cheeks and stared at him while eating.

After returning from the back mountain, he and Qi Muxue walked side by side on the palace road, talking as they walked.

One is as handsome as jade, and the other has a pure and gentle temperament. They are like a golden boy and a beautiful girl. They are like a pair made in heaven.

It attracted the sideways glances of many people in the palace.

"King Zhenbei won the first battle?"

Lu Mingyuan rubbed his chin, thoughtfully. What he didn't expect was that King Zhenbei really sent out troops.

King Zhenbei has been guarding the border for so many years and has always kept a low profile. He was afraid of being caught by the court. He originally thought that King Zhenbei would shirk it for various reasons. After all, being in the spotlight now would do him no good.

After the incident is over, it will only cause suspicion.

But after all, sending troops was an imperial decree, and one must not disobey it. Failure to send troops would become a source of criticism. As a result, King Zhenbei was even more difficult to dismount, and finally chose to send troops, and won the battle.

"Yes, the king of Zhenbei has made great contributions to the eleven cities in Shengming's southern border. The cabinet is already thinking of ways to reward him."

Qi Muxue nodded lightly and looked at the concubine who was watching the palace with bright eyes. There was not much in her eyes.

"Is it really so smooth?"

"Well, a large-scale rebellion broke out within the Demonic Kingdom. The troops are empty. Nine out of ten rooms are empty, so the battle is easy. This is the battle report from the Zhenbei King's front line. He said it himself. It can also be regarded as a report released by the cabinet. It is specially used To boost the morale of the military and civilians.”

Lu Mingyuan expressed his understanding.

Since ancient times, it has been difficult for people to know the secrets of the palace, unless someone takes the initiative to reveal it.

In the past, a young man studied in Shengjing Academy. His calligraphy skills made him famous in both the government and the public. He was summoned by Emperor Dayan to the palace and wrote an imperial edict in a side hall. It was snowing in the middle of winter and his pen was too frozen to write. The emperor ordered more than ten concubines to serve him. On the left and right sides of the body, exhale and stroke the pen.

At this time, it quickly became popular throughout Great Yan, and even in all the major dynasties in the Middle-earth world. It became a good story. Everyone praised the Emperor of Great Yan for his love for virtuous people, and students from all over the world came here to admire it.

It’s just that no one thought deeply about how the imperial city and palaces were so strictly forbidden. The emperor didn’t tell, the eunuchs didn’t tell, and the concubines didn’t tell. How did the people know about it.

"There is a rebellion in the Demon Kingdom, so God has blessed me greatly."

Lu Mingyuan smiled slightly and gave a slight compliment. Whether Dayan is strong or weak, for him, being strong is the best and he can enjoy adequate treatment. It cannot be said that Dayan will be destroyed, and then he, the prince, will be done.

This compliment made Qi Muxue's long eyelashes tremble, she blinked her eyes, and a playful smile appeared in her eyes: "The demon girl you let go at the beginning is now causing a lot of trouble. Not only domestic voices He is extremely tall and powerful. As the high priest of a country, he is responsible for communicating with the Shengming Kingdom. He has countless followers, and he even contradicted the leader of the Shengming Kingdom and threatened to bring him down."

Lu Mingyuan listened with a surprised look on his face, and sighed from the bottom of his heart:

"So awesome."

He said half-jokingly: "In a sense, I am responsible for the great situation in Dayan. King Zhenbei still wants to thank me?"

If it weren't for him, the witch wouldn't have been able to make such a big splash.

Qi Muxue shook her head and said with a slight smile: "Your Highness is proud of herself. If she is still in Dayan Prison, Dayan may have expanded hundreds of miles."

But then she thought about it and found that she couldn't think like this.

Everyone said that the witch's noble status could be exchanged for a hundred years of peace on the Great Yan border, but she always thought it was impossible. Although the witch's status was high, it was not yet to the point where the Lord of Shengming Kingdom could give up his desire to go south.

Over the past hundreds of years, looking at the many wars between Great Yan and the Demon Kingdom, Great Yan still lost more than it won.

It can occasionally win a few big victories and turn things around, but Great Yan's background is still much worse than that of Great Ming Holy Kingdom. You must know that the name Shengming has been in the classics for more than two thousand years.

The previous dynasty of the Great Zhou Dynasty lasted for more than 800 years, and the previous dynasty of the Great Xia Dynasty lasted for more than a thousand years. Compared with those ancient dynasties, the Great Yan Dynasty was like a young man who had just lost his crown. He had initially stood up and had the capital to protect himself. .

It is true that the Great Yan Dynasty has maintained its title as the largest country in Middle-earth for three hundred years since the Destiny was established. In the past fifty years, it has been able to maintain its dominant position in front of the Demon Kingdom. This does not mean that Dayan can easily and completely solve the demon nation's problems. , the other party still cannot be underestimated.

Also, the actual land area of ​​the Demon Kingdom is not included in the world of Middle-earth, but it has plundered the territory of many ancient dynasties, so it is regarded as a heresy in the eyes of successive dynasties.

When talking about this commonplace topic, Lu Mingyuan fell silent slightly.

"Wu Xue, don't you blame me?"

The biggest thing he is carrying now is this case.

Many people were extremely concerned, but only Qi Muxue believed in him. It was probably because of Qi Xingyan, who might know something.

Qi Muxue spoke softly and comforted: "Didn't I say that before, I thought about it and investigated it, and I always felt that the original case was weird. Many monks from the third academy were seriously injured by the demon girl, and the formation was also Being broken is enough to explain some problems. In these months, I have often asked my father, and he said that this matter is of great importance and full of doubts. If it is leaked, the Tian family will not be safe, so it is better to talk less. "

"But I still want to tell you that the demon girl you let go was probably an abandoned child of the Demon Kingdom."

"Abandoned son of the Demon Kingdom?"

This was the first time Lu Mingyuan heard this statement.

Qi Muxue carefully analyzed: "Combined with the recent unrest in the Demon Kingdom and the rise of the demon girl, my father and I are even more convinced of the authenticity of this matter."

Lu Mingyuan thought for a moment and seemed to understand something.

"You are saying that the reason why General Pei was able to capture the witch with a high level of cultivation alive was because he was framed by the Demon Kingdom. There was also a hidden reason why he was let go later. Doesn't that mean that someone deliberately let the witch go in order to stir up trouble in the Demon Kingdom? Conflict within the department?”

"Yes, that's exactly what it means."

Qi Muxue held his arm and nodded, agreeing very much.

She sighed: "But we have no evidence. We are just guessing, and it may not be 100% true. Otherwise, you would not need to bear such a crime."

Lu Mingyuan felt more at ease, smiled happily, and held her little hand.

"I feel Miss Qi's thoughts."

Qi Muxue's face was still a little hot when he grabbed her hand.

"But if there is something dangerous, Miss Qi should not do it. I would rather stay in the cold palace for thirty years than see Miss Qi get into trouble because of me."

Hearing this, Qi Muxue's eyes moved slightly.

These words melted her pure and deep heart, and once again injected a touch of enthusiasm.

Ever since she made the oath of heaven and decided to stay private for the rest of her life, she had been a little worried about her future affairs, whether the other party would like the new and dislike the old. But now it seems that she was overly worried. Lu Mingyuan was still the same Lu Mingyuan.

He's not the kind of man who turns cold once he's flirted with someone.

"The King of Zhenbei has sent troops, is there anyone still guarding the Great Wall? And I remember my master said that if the Great Wall of the North is not guarded, why does the King of Zhenbei still have to guard it?"

Lu Mingyuan asked.

Qi Muxue explained: "Your Highness has misunderstood. The Beiguan where King Zhenbei is located is Beiguan, and the Great Wall is the Great Wall. They are two places, sharing the same front, but very far apart."

"The King of Zhenbei guards the important Beiguan town composed of the three northwest states, Xiongwu Prefecture, Feiniu Prefecture, and Longxu Prefecture. It is located outside the Great Wall. It is the land cut off from the Demon Kingdom in the past hundred years, and the Great Wall of the North It was built in the past dynasties and stands tall. It was used to resist the invasion of the Demonic Kingdom hundreds of years ago. It has been continuously repaired and reinforced by successive dynasties, and it has the scale of tens of thousands of miles today. It separates the Demonic Kingdom and the Western Barbarian Monster Clan. It is The boundary of the world in Middle-earth.”

After hearing this, Lu Mingyuan understood.

It seems that the place where King Zhenbei is sitting is the military fortress of Dayan, the forefront of the battlefield, and a buffer zone, not included in the hinterland of the Great Wall.

Qi Muxue added: "The Yang family where King Zhenbei lives is a family of generals. Although Yang Xiao did not have a son in his early years, he had many adopted sons. General Zhongwu Yang Zaixing and General Zhaowu Yang Zhaoyuan were both eighth-level warriors with good strength. Now it seems that in the past few years, I have probably given birth to several younger sons who have not grown up, but they seem to have shown a lukewarm attitude towards my eldest daughter who is a proton."

Lu Mingyuan thought of Princess Zhao and did not agree with this statement: "The princess was an only daughter before, and the father and daughter had always exchanged letters. Her biological mother died early, and the wife of the King of Zhenbei took the first step. Even if she married again, , the status of the son he gave birth to cannot be compared with Princess Yang."

"The relationship between King Zhenbei and his ex-wife is still very good."

After listening, Qi Muxue seemed to be thoughtful, nodded slightly, then looked strangely, and raised her mouth and said: "How did Your Highness know? Is it possible that the rumors in the palace are true? What really happened between you and the princess?"

The fatal three questions came down.

"Forehead"

Lu Mingyuan almost forgot about this, patted his head, and explained seriously: "What's the matter? The princess is my sister-in-law after all. She is under house arrest and living alone in the harem. From time to time, she will come to my palace to sit, chat and explain. I was bored and came and went, so I got to know a little bit about their family’s family affairs.”

After listening to Lu Mingyuan's statement, Qi Muxue sighed: "Actually, I quite sympathize with Princess Yang."

"I heard that the eldest prince treated her very badly at the city gate before he passed away. He beat and scolded her. It seems that she has been unhappy for more than ten years. No one dared to help her. Even though she is the daughter of a warrior, she is still Poor woman."

Lu Mingyuan agreed: "I think so too."

Seeing Qingzhudian appear in the middle of the road.

"came back?"

Wang Zhaoyan had been sitting in the yard waiting for a long time. She looked in the direction of the door and smiled lightly.

"Mother."

When Lu Mingyuan saw his mother coming, he smiled and shouted.

"Originally I wanted to inform you of something, but I didn't expect Miss Qi to be here. It just so happens that we can sit together."

Qi Muxue has a graceful figure, elegant and dignified, and looks both virtuous and gentle.

Wang Zhaoyan couldn't help but nod, feeling more and more satisfied with her future daughter-in-law.

"For your marriage, mother plans to hold a banquet for your father. It will be in Yaoguang Palace. Let's sit down and chat together. Your father should also come because he is ill. , I can only do it for you."

"Your father also agreed."

Lu Mingyuan's eyelids twitched slightly: "Mother wants to invite Mr. Qi and the Champion Marquis to come to the palace to sit down for a banquet?"

Wang Zhaoyan said: "And your two future princesses, it's time, it's been delayed for so long."

"Okay, mother will arrange it."

Lu Mingyuan could only pray that the atmosphere would be more harmonious by then.
