Chapter 3280 What did Queen Chen worry about?
She asked again: "But, after coaxing him for a long time, he only gave me some, but I want all of it. What should I do?"
Little Chengjun blinked again: "Keep coaxing her."
Hearing this, Nan Yan felt a bit angry and amused, and said, "Are you still trying to coax me? What if I don't believe you?"
"Um……"
Xiao Chengjun pursed his lips, frowned and thought seriously.
After all, he is still young, and his eyes, eyebrows, and even cheeks are full of childishness. But now he looks like a little adult, thinking seriously. That look makes people feel particularly cute and a little funny.
Nan Yan looked at him while suppressing her smile.
After a while, Xiao Chengjun looked up and said, "I'll stop coaxing him after a while. He'll definitely know I'm coaxing him, so he really won't take it out. I just have to keep coaxing him, and he'll believe it."
“…”
This time, it was Nan Yan who was stunned.
Although this may sound a bit childish, when you think about it, isn't this the case?
War is a matter of deception.
To design a trap is to make the other party believe it and jump in willingly. How to make the other party believe it? It is definitely not possible to be fickle. You have to do one thing to the end, so that even if the other party has doubts, they have to believe it and jump in.
If at this time, with her mentality, Arslan did not mobilize a large number of troops after the battle, and if she immediately gave up the previous plan, then Arslan would definitely realize that there was a problem with the previous tightening of Handongwei, and it would be really impossible to ask him to mobilize a large number of troops again.
So, it should be just as Xiao Chengjun said.
Thinking of this, Nan Yan lowered her head and looked at her youngest son with a look of joy and surprise.
After a while, she reached out and poked Xiao Chengjun's forehead hard.
"How can you be so bad!"
“Woo!”
Little Chengjun originally thought that he should be rewarded for answering the question raised by his mother, but he didn't expect to be hit. He immediately covered his head with his hands in grievance.
Nan Yan was a little happy, but also a little worried.
This child, still so young, actually has the same thoughts and ideas as Zhu Feng. It can be said that he is born to be a general. It is indeed very rare. But he is so scheming and cunning at such a young age...
She felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
At this moment, the old uncle's laughing voice came from the side. He reached out and stroked the top of little Chengjun's head, saying, "This child is a good seedling."
Nan Yan looked up at him: "Uncle..."
Although he didn't understand the meaning of the old uncle's words, he clearly understood that he was being praised. Little Chengjun smiled with his eyes curved: "Thank you, uncle."
The old uncle said, "Go and play for a while."
"yes!"
Little Chengjun had rested enough, so he immediately turned around and ran out again. In a few seconds, he jumped onto the tall rockery and drilled around in the cave, making the young eunuch who was following him below scratch his head in anxiety, not knowing what to do.
Seeing him like this, the old uncle couldn't help but laugh. While laughing, he said casually: "The emperor and the imperial concubine should be happy to have such a good seedling by their side."
Nan Yan raised her head and looked at him with a complicated expression.
After a long while, he whispered, "He's still too young. So young, and yet—"
Having said that, she was a little unable to continue.
The old uncle smiled and said, "Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine feels that His Royal Highness the Prince of Han is so scheming at such a young age. He can figure out things that even adults might not understand. You are worried about his future, right?"
Nan Yan nodded immediately.
The old uncle smiled and said, "Your Highness, you must remember one thing: being scheming is not a bad thing."
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide and looked at him.
The old uncle turned around and looked at Nan Yan, saying word by word, "Using your own mind to do bad things, that's what is called a bad thing."
“…”
"Human intelligence is innate, and so is the complexity of the human heart. There's nothing wrong with these things, but using them to do bad things is wrong. Just like a sharp knife, it can be used to chop wood or cut vegetables, but it can also be used to hurt people. The wrong thing is not the sharpness of the blade, but the final result. My lady, please do not misunderstand this principle."
“…”
After hearing this, Nan Yan suddenly understood.
She chuckled, then looked at the old uncle and said with a smile: "Thank you for your enlightenment, uncle. I understand."
The old uncle smiled and said, "Actually, Your Majesty doesn't need my advice. As a noble concubine, how could you not understand these principles? It's just that as a mother, my concern makes me confused."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Isn't it?"
As she spoke, she looked with a touch of emotion at little Chengjun, who was already running like a flash in the garden. She shook her head helplessly and smiled, "He is a prince after all, and has been canonized as the King of Han since he was a child. The Emperor and I still have high hopes for him. We hope that he will make great contributions to the country when he grows up. He must not go astray."
"I understand your Majesty's concerns,"
The old uncle nodded and looked at the figure of little Chengjun. Perhaps he remembered something, but at this moment, a trace of confusion flashed across his originally bright eyes. He said softly, "My sister's worries back then were no more than this."
Nan Yan looked ahead, and it was a long time after she finished saying this before her brows slightly furrowed.
She turned her head slowly and calmly and looked at the old uncle.
He said - sister?
That was Empress Chen of that time.
What did Empress Chen worry about?
She also worried about whether the child would go astray. But which child was she worried about? Although Zhu Feng was not her father according to the imperial records, in the years before this matter was clarified, Zhu Feng was always the legitimate son, the child born to the Empress, and he had been raised by Empress Chen.
Could he be talking about Zhu Feng?
But Nan Yan didn't ask any more questions.
Because after saying this, the old uncle's expression immediately became clear again, as if he had not said anything. Without waiting for Nan Yan to ask anything, he strode out of the pavilion and told little Chengjun not to climb too high to avoid falling. Nan Yan immediately understood that this was the same as he had hinted before.
Since he revealed a little bit, he must have it in his heart.
When the time comes, he will speak.
This is not what we should worry about right now.
Thinking of this, Nan Yan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the uneasiness and palpitations in her heart, then turned her head to look outside the Duwei Mansion, thinking about the sky in the northwest.
It seems a little gloomy.
Today, Xiao Chengjun did not hear any sound of the soldiers returning from training, which means that the Duwei Mansion has mobilized more troops and should be continuing the fight over there.
Can Arslan and his men be "coaxed" out by them?
