Xiao Li rode quickly all the way, and in less than half a day he met Xiao Jingyi, who had received the news and arrived with his troops.
"Royal sister!"
Xiao Li disappeared, but Yang Jun and his men did not announce it to the public. They sent troops to search the desert, under the pretext of clearing out the sand bandits and searching for desert treasures.
So until now, Xiao Jingyi didn't know that Xiao Li had an accident in the desert. He just thought that Xiao Li deliberately hid his whereabouts and went to Yizhou to rescue Feng Yin.
The main reason is that this is too much like something Xiao Li would do. If you say that Xiao Li went to the desert, was robbed by sand bandits, encountered quicksand, and finally fled to Yizhou, that sounds like nonsense.
So sometimes it’s not that people don’t want to believe the truth, but that the truth sounds too unbelievable.
Xiao Li took a look and asked: "How many people did you bring?"
Xiao Jingyi: “Eight thousand.”
Xiao Li calculated it and it was enough.
"Rong Qing."
Rong Qing stepped forward: "I am here."
Xiao Li glanced at him and said, "I'll give you a month."
Within a month, the three state capitals under the jurisdiction of Prince Pei were captured and the rebellion was completely put down.
Eight thousand are the vanguard, and there will be military support later. It is estimated that there will be about 20,000 people in total, as well as artillery fire, which is more than enough to attack Yizhou.
Rong Qing knelt on one knee without hesitation: "I obey your command!"
Xiao Li looked at Rong Qing. Since arriving in Yizhou, he had retreated and quietly served as her guard behind her, obeying her orders and guarding her loyally, never crossing that line again.
If it weren't for the fact that his eyes still looked at her with suppressed heat, Xiao Li would have thought that he had completely let it go.
This person is too rational, no, too sensible.
Don't make things difficult for her, don't force a response from her, as if just being there for her is enough.
A dedicated personality, the most loyal general.
This kind of man is actually very good, but because he is too good, he is born to be a spare tire in any relationship.
"Rong Qing."
Xiao Li called him again, but this time seemed a little different.
Rong Qing looked up at her, and seeing her gaze clearly, his silver pupils trembled slightly: "Your Majesty."
Xiao Li looked him straight in the eye, leaned closer, the corners of his lips curled slightly, a faint smile flickered in his eyes: "I will return to the capital first and wait for your triumphant return. I promise you a promise."
Rong Qing's calm expression finally showed a hint of excitement, but he quickly restrained it: "I...will definitely not let your majesty down."
He gripped the sword tightly and mounted his horse.
He was willing to conquer the world for His Majesty, but now this willingness was mixed with a bit of tender anticipation.
His Majesty, please grant me your grace and I will give you everything I have.
Rong Qing led his troops back to Yizhou, and Xiao Li and Xiao Jingyi walked back.
Xiao Jingyi glanced at the team, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Royal sister, why don't you see Lord Feng?"
Xiao Li replied calmly: "He went to where he should go."
Seeing that Xiao Li was unwilling to say more, Xiao Jingyi immediately stopped his curiosity.
Xiao Li did not go to Beicang again. He rested in Shanzhou for two days and waited for Yang Jun, Wang Wanqing and others.
Immediately set off back to Beijing.
As for Xiao Jingyi, Xiao Li left him in Yanpingzhou.
Xiao Li felt that Xiao Jingyi was unusually lucky and that he was strange, but he did not deny his abilities.
Yanping Prefecture is the second heart she built for Longsheng, concentrating the economy and power in the south in order to better manage the territories of the former Yue Kingdom and Yuncang, so a person of status is needed to take charge.
The ministers in the court are too young and lack prestige.
Xiao Jingyi is also young, but his status is there, and he is the best candidate at the moment.
Xiao Li chose to reuse Xiao Jingyi again, which was an affirmation of his ability and also a test.
As for the results, she is also looking forward to it.
Xiao Jingyi actually wanted to return to the court with Xiao Li, but he had a premonition that he might be left behind.
When he received the order, he felt a little disappointed, but more importantly, he felt at ease because his heart was at peace.
If he followed Xiao Li back to the court, he would only be an idle prince, and there would be no place for him in the political structure of the court.
If it was a fair competition, he would probably not be able to defeat the group of people in the court, and it would be extremely difficult for him to gain power.
The position of being in charge of Yanping Prefecture is most suitable for him. The work is not difficult, but his status is high enough and he seems to have power.
And most importantly, this means that His Majesty is still willing to trust him and employ him.
Rather than being a brother who is close to the imperial sister but is ignored and useless, he would rather be someone who is useful to the imperial sister.
How could his name not be mentioned in the imperial sister's dynasty?
The empress left, and Xiao Jingyi also prepared to pack up and return to Yanpingzhou.
The guard came in with a letter in his hand: "Your Highness, a beggar brought this letter. He said someone gave him money to deliver it and asked him to read it. Your Highness, please be sure to read it."
Xiao Jingyi looked at it doubtfully and asked someone to check it to make sure that the letter was pure and not poisoned before opening it.
No one knew who wrote the letter, but the content made Xiao Jingyi's face darken instantly.
"She was naturally dull and cowardly, and had not received any formal education. One day she was grieving over her husband's lack of love for her, but the next day she changed her temper and went on a killing spree."
"Killing her husband, slaughtering her family, setting up a trap, seizing power, Your Majesty never doubted whether she was still the same person as before?"
Xiao Jingyi clutched the letter tightly, turned around and went into the house, slapped open the lid of the incense burner, and threw the letter in with force.
The letter was burning, and flames were dancing in his eyes, but these flames had no temperature, only cold murderous intent.
"Go and find out where this letter came from."
Once found out, kill without mercy!
Does it matter who the imperial sister is?
In the royal family, blood ties have always been weak.
There were many cases of brothers fighting against each other, siblings killing each other, and killing brothers and fathers. Although princesses were not involved in the struggle for power, they were always the final victims of power.
Xiao Jingyi never felt that he had any sibling feelings with other people. He understood at a very young age that he did not have a large maternal family. Under the suppression of his father and other princes, he could not accumulate enough power to overthrow the court. He was destined to be a victim.
In order to survive the imperial power struggle, he was so cautious and busy that he had no time to care about his other sisters.
Whether Xiao Xuanyang is alive or dead, what does it have to do with him?
Later, this person who was in a worse situation than him changed.
She single-handedly blazed a new trail.
She never doted on him, but she never treated him unfairly either, and she was the only one who actually delivered benefits to him.
Did the imperial sister treat him as her own brother? Perhaps not, but she was the only one who appreciated his abilities. Even though she knew he wasn't as harmless as he appeared, she still held an admiring attitude and allowed him to show his strengths.
The relationship between them is more of a matter of exploitation, but does it matter?
Isn't blood relationship just a form of exploitation? Moreover, if we talk about exploitation, she doesn't even bother to use him. Instead, he hopes that he will be valuable to her.
She was so powerful that she was almost invincible, and she ushered in a prosperous era.
He went from admiration to respect and finally to complete worship.
Who is she? She is his sister, a sister who has nothing to do with blood, a sister who comes from the heart and is recognized by the soul.
No matter who wrote this letter, the purpose is very clear. He wants to sow discord and use him as a gun to deal with the imperial sister. He is simply seeking death!
