Ever since Ji Wan was able to practice cultivation, his ears and eyes have become sharper, so he could hear everything that was being argued inside clearly.
Sitting in Xilingci's carriage, the wheels kept turning.
The quarrel in the carriage ahead never stopped.
"You still say you put your children first? You clearly care more about Fu Guang's ability."
"You! Mingyuenu! You're being unreasonable! I can't explain myself to you!"
You just need to remember that Ningxi Kingdom is Fu Guang's home, and Qingshi State is also Fu Guang's home.
If you insist on asking Fu Guang to distinguish between the primary and the secondary, then the relationship between Fu Guang and Ning Xiguo will only become more and more distant!
'I'm not prioritizing, it's just that Fu Guang doesn't take Ning Xiguo seriously!
She is blatantly selling the land of Chuzhou, which is clearly an encroachment on Ningxi State!
"It's not that serious! Mingyuenu, you are really too sensitive."
I am the emperor of Ningxi Kingdom now. Even if Fu Guang wants Ningxi Kingdom, I can give it to him!
"What should Changsheng do then?"
After Xiling Mingyue finished yelling, the carriage over there instantly became quiet.
Xilingci was sitting next to Ji Wan, feeling embarrassed and not knowing what to do.
Finally, he could only force a smile and comfort her, "Don't blame me, Fu Guang, and don't take it to heart. It's just what my mother said in anger.
Father was just arguing with Mother.
What they care about more is actually Ningxi Country, and as for us two siblings, we have to retreat."
Ji Wan's expression was calm: "Yeah."
Xilingci wanted to say something but stopped talking. Finally, he sighed and stopped talking.
Not only Xilingci looked embarrassed, but also Lou Shao.
Before he came, he knew that Xiling Mingyue and Ji Wan were not getting along because of some issues.
But he didn't know it was because of this kind of thing.
Now everyone in the car was staring at him, especially the two foxes Cui Min and Yang Guan.
He has been in the court for so many years and is not a fool.
Naturally, he understood that they were waiting for him to make a choice.
In other words, they are warning and testing.
They were waiting for him to make a choice - if that day really came, would he follow Xiling Mingyue or Ji Wan.
He was about to speak when Choi Min saw his intention and suddenly interrupted him.
Cui Min said: "I heard it has been a long time since we last met. We must find time to get together tomorrow."
"Okay." Lou Shao didn't understand why this old fox had been waiting for such a long time and suddenly changed his mind and stopped waiting for him to express his opinion.
But it’s better not to ask for now. If His Highness can reconcile with Madam Xiling, he can still stay.
If we can't reconcile...
Cui Min interrupted Lou Shao purely because he was thinking about His Highness's army, and Xiang Yang and the soldiers brought by Lou Shao.
It is definitely not a good idea to break up with someone before you are ready.
At least we have to wait until we have dealt with Lou Shao's former subordinates, or until His Highness has found new arrangements for them...
The road to the palace was extremely winding, and it took them a full half hour to reach their destination.
The palace of Ningxi Kingdom is also full of exotic styles, with gems and various wood carvings everywhere, and all kinds of beautiful clothes are also beautifully displayed in front of Ji Wan.
It was the first time that Ji Wan saw a different place in the world. She was still a little curious and her face showed a bit of curiosity.
Xilingyun felt distressed when he saw this.
This should have been Fu Guang’s home!
Several people kept walking.
Ji Wan couldn't guess the destination, but Yang Guan, who was beside him, had been to the palace of Ningxi Kingdom and had already guessed what Xiling Yun was going to do.
He closed his mouth selfishly and didn't open his mouth to remind her.
This is what Your Highness deserves.
As soon as Ji Wan entered the hall, he was shocked by the officials standing on both sides.
Damn, these people don’t even take holidays during the holidays?
"My lords, this is my daughter.
Due to Fu Guang’s health condition, I was unable to return to my ancestral home earlier, but what belongs to my son must not be lost.
From now on, seeing Fu Guang is like seeing me! Did you hear that clearly, gentlemen?
Those ministers seemed to have known what Xilingyun was going to say.
At this time, they were not too surprised, but said in unison with solemn expressions: "Yes!"
Xiling Yun nodded in satisfaction: "The governors of Liangzhou, Youzhou, and Yanzhou obey my orders."
"I am here." "I am here." "I am here."
"I summoned you to the capital specifically to hand over the prefectures and counties to my son.
These three states are adjacent to the Donglin Kingdom, which is just right for my son's ambition.
From now on, these three states will be my son's fiefdom. You must hand over the affairs of the states and counties to Fu Guang as soon as possible!"
Xilingyun finished speaking.
Ji Wan was a little surprised and was about to say that he didn't need the territory.
However, he was interrupted by Xiling Yun, who had anticipated this: "My son, don't refuse. These are just three prefectures adjacent to Donglin State.
If you are willing, you can manage the prefectures and counties. If you are not willing, you can just accept the offerings from the people every month.
I will exempt you from the annual tributes that these three states and counties are required to pay to the imperial court.
From now on, all the people's taxes will be yours."
Ji Wan: “…”
He blatantly gave her the land adjacent to the Donglin Kingdom, hoping that she would send troops to fight against the Donglin Kingdom.
But... this coincides with what she meant. The expansion of territory is a good thing and worth celebrating.
Moreover, Ji Wan and Xiling Yun had already discussed this before.
But she didn't expect that Xiling Yun would issue an imperial decree so readily when she first came to Ningxi Kingdom, and give her all three states and counties for free.
With this kind of gift, she could just set up her own business.
I just don’t know if my mother knows…
