Chapter 142 Great! Her first big event was a success
Lu Yanshi was thinking, if his brothers and sisters from the same mother could hear it, then all the children in the harem, born of the same father, would they be able to hear it too?
Lu Xuanyi is the youngest and should be the least likely to lie.
But what he didn't expect was that children are the best at telling lies.
"Your son pays homage to His Majesty, Father." Upon seeing him, Lu Xuanyi immediately bowed politely.
That little look is so pitiful.
Concubine Lu went on duty, and Lu Xuanyi was taken care of by the palace maids.
Seeing Lu Yanshi's sudden visit, everyone was startled and hurriedly moved, fearing that they would neglect the emperor.
"You're so good. Come here, father, hold you." Lu Yanshi bent down and picked up his daughter.
Lu Xuanyi was picked up by her father and smiled brightly.
Lu Yanshi carried his daughter and walked to a place where there were few people. He first chatted with Lu Xuanyi about some nonsense, and then dismissed the other palace ladies.
"Xuan'er, Father asks you something, you are not allowed to lie."
"Okay. Xuan'er doesn't lie. Xuan'er is a good child." Lu Xuanyi nodded.
"Can you hear what your ninth sister is thinking?" Lu Yanshi stared at her without blinking.
"What's in your mind?" Lu Xuanyi was a little confused, as if she didn't understand what he meant.
"Even if your ninth sister doesn't open her mouth, can you hear what she is saying in her heart?" Lu Yanshi explained.
My mother once said that I must not tell anyone about what my ninth sister was thinking, not even my father.
But lying makes children bad, and she was in a dilemma.
So Lu Xuanyi pursed her lips and said nothing, just shook her head.
I shook my head. If I didn't say it out loud, it wouldn't count as a lie, right?
Lu Yanshi understood that she couldn't hear.
"Have you forgotten what your father asked you just now? Don't tell anyone, got it?" He warned his daughter.
"Got it." Lu Xuanyi nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Yanshi handed her over to the care of the palace maids, and then went to find Lu Linlang and asked the same question.
"Father, what are you talking about? How is it possible for people to hear what others are thinking?" Lu Linlang looked at him with confusion.
After getting this answer, Lu Yanshi gave up asking other children.
Except for Lu Li, the two youngest ones said they didn't hear it, which probably means no one else could hear it.
Little did she know that Lu Linlang breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he left.
"Fortunately, fortunately, my father didn't find out."
My mother said that my father must not know about this.
The heart of an emperor is as elusive as the sea.
Her father was first the emperor of Daxia, and then her father.
No emperor could tolerate others eavesdropping on his secrets.
Ninth sister is like that. She always reveals big news every now and then. It would be bad if she said something about our father.
He definitely doesn't want anyone else to know his father's secret.
The ninth sister might be able to escape because of her peculiarity, but the same may not be true for her mother and her.
Lu Linlang remembered clearly what her mother had told her.
…
The general from southern Xinjiang who supported Xichang this time was Jia Feishuang.
Their destination was Mengding City.
The battle between Xichang and Daxia lasted for more than a month, and the situation was extremely tense.
According to His Majesty's wishes, they need to keep a low profile during this trip. Then they will suddenly appear in Mengding City and cooperate with Xichang to catch Daxia off guard.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped when he had just led his soldiers to Liukong Mountain near Mengding City.
"I am the second princess of Daxia, Lu Qi. This place is forbidden. Anyone who goes in front will be killed without mercy!"
A clear female voice rang out.
Jia Feishuang was startled.
They were traveling secretly, but how come they were discovered by the people of Daxia?
He looked closely and saw a girl in red. She was holding a long sword, her eyes were like stars, and there was an inviolable murderous aura on her face.
"Go back and ask the Dragon King if he wants to sacrifice Southern Xinjiang to support Xichang? The cavalry of our Great Xia is already heading to Southern Xinjiang."
Lu Qi once again released shocking news.
Jia Feishuang was stunned on the spot.
If what the Second Princess of Daxia said is true, then Southern Xinjiang is in danger!
The soldiers he brought to support Xichang this time accounted for half of their total number of soldiers in southern Xinjiang.
If Daxia attacks, they can only hold out for ten days at most.
"Do you think you can fool us by saying that?" Jia Feishuang looked hesitant.
"If you don't believe it, you can stay here for a few days. Your emperor will soon summon you back to southern Xinjiang." Lu Qi looked calm.
Jia Feishuang thought what she said made sense.
They promised to support Xichang, but they didn't say they would arrive in a few days. It's okay to let them wait a few more days.
If something really happened in Southern Xinjiang, he would have to preserve his combat power and go back to support Southern Xinjiang.
"Then let's take a few days off." Jia Feishuang made the decision.
Lu Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
Great! Her first big event was a success.
If Jia Feishuang doesn't listen, they will have to fight with real swords and guns.
She has seen too much blood on the battlefield these days, and she wants to take a break.
The two sides reached an agreement and rested on the spot.
Lu Qi left someone on guard at the edge while she went back to support Concubine Shu.
When Song Yulan learned about this, he sighed and said, "What a pity, I don't have the letter from the Dragon King, otherwise I could imitate it and send it to the general in Southern Xinjiang. He will definitely return home immediately."
"Don't worry. When the emperor sent people to support us, he had already ordered them to head south. The Dragon Emperor's recall order will arrive soon." Lu Qi responded with a smile.
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Not long after they finished their discussion, Long Wudi's urgent call arrived.
"Southern Xinjiang is in danger, return home quickly."
When Jia Feishuang saw the imperial edict, he immediately led his soldiers back to southern Xinjiang.
…
In the Southern Xinjiang Palace.
Long Wudi was so angry that he slammed the dragon chair.
"How come Lu Yanshi is so quick! Counting the days, it hasn't been long since I decided to send people to support Xichang, and he sent people to our southern border."
"Indeed, the timing of Daxia's military action is too coincidental." Kang You nodded.
Long Wudi thought for a moment and thought of a possibility.
"Could it be that the Saint told him?"
"Ah?" Kang You was dumbfounded.
"Yes, it must be the Saint who told Lu Yanshi, otherwise they would not have acted so quickly." The more Long Wudi thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.
At this moment, he didn't know that he had accidentally guessed the truth, although the truth was not quite what he thought.
"Prepare 500,000 taels of silver, I will go to Daxia again!" Long Wudi made the decision.
He wanted to meet Lu Li again to confirm whether she was the saint lost in Southern Xinjiang.
"Your Majesty, please don't go this time. Let me go." Kang You hurried forward to stop him.
First, they were afraid that the emperor's identity would be exposed and he would be detained in Daxia. Second, they were afraid that he would not be able to resist the temptation of Daxia and would go on shopping and buy, and end up owing hundreds of thousands.
If it happens again, the Minister of Revenue will really be hanged at the door of the hall.
