In recent years, Long'er and Da'an have been causing a lot of trouble, either by planting spies or by trying to force Princess Mingzhu to compensate her with cities.
In the eyes of the people of Mingzhu and Da'an, Huo Xiaolong is a villain.
With the grassland king occasionally joining her in putting pressure on them, the people of Da'an, while not living in utter misery, were still living in constant fear.
“Princess, the Dragon Princess of Great Yan has gone too far. Why don’t we send troops to the border to suppress her? At least we can give her a warning.”
Mingzhu sat on the dragon throne, her mind replaying the events of the past few years, starting from the moment her own father ceded territory and apologized.
Huo Xiaolong was even happier to discover this method of capturing a city without losing a single person.
"Send troops. Today, the Da'an garrison is suppressing the border of the Great Yan. Tomorrow, Da'an will be under a different name."
"Even General Huang's threats against her with her children are useless. We should try to delay as much as possible; that would be the best course of action."
Mingzhu understood the deep hatred his subordinates harbored for the Great Yan Dynasty, especially for Huang Ranhu's lineage—a blood feud.
What Da An lacks now is a fierce general like Huang Ranhu.
But no.
How many people in the world can fight Huo Xiaolong to a standstill?
Mingzhu got up and looked at the moonlight outside the window.
Turning back, Yu Qin, who was playing with the pet, sighed and then said with a wry smile:
“Yuqin, the fate of Da’an has run its course; it is my incompetence that has caused this.”
Mingzhu often wondered if she had studied martial arts properly when she was young, would she be able to lead troops into battle now, and could she be like Huo Xiaolong, galloping across the battlefield and conquering the world with martial arts?
Yu Qin seemed to see through the person's thoughts, and she sighed softly:
"I'm not trying to be mean, but I'm just saying that even if you've been learning martial arts since you were a child, you still can't beat the Great Yan Dragon Girl."
"Not to mention that her teacher is the leader of the martial arts alliance, just look at her talent, Mingzhu. I am already a martial arts prodigy."
"But it was no use. I couldn't even last one move against her."
"This is a great responsibility bestowed upon this person by Heaven. Even if we were to be reborn ten times, we still couldn't catch up with him."
Mingzhu's arrangement for Da'an was simply to stall. Once the stalling could no longer be delayed, Huo Xiaolong would naturally lead his troops to invade. At that time, they could discuss it with her. Da'an could also learn from Loulan. Being a vassal state is not shameful; what is shameful is the death of countless people, who die hungry and destitute.
What's shameful is that the people of Da'an were full of ambition and were willing to sacrifice themselves for their country, but they encountered a monarch who didn't care about them.
In fact, the people of Da'an all understand that such a day will come sooner or later.
Either Da'an will annex Da'an, or Da'an will reclaim Da'an.
These two companies were originally one family, so if we don't talk about it, the rules and regulations are the same.
Previously, so many people in the Great Yan were bullied and killed by the grasslands. Huang Ranhu even planned to have his own emperor write a letter to the emperor of the Great Yan, asking for passage so he could go and fight.
It's one thing for fellow countrymen to fight amongst themselves in their own homes, but it's unacceptable for outsiders to bully them.
“Mingzhu is the most stubborn person in the whole world. She says the most cowardly things, but does the most stubborn things. You see, she definitely won’t give us this city easily.”
Huo Xiaolong was in his room, looking at the letter Mingzhu had written to her, and said with a smile to everyone in the room.
The sword is about to be born, and even with a big belly, she still wants to attend to political affairs.
The woman's hands and feet were visibly swollen, as were her face. She gently patted her stomach with her fingers, closed her eyes, thought for a moment, and then said:
“My lord does not want to fight with Mingzhu, and neither does she. Since that’s the case, let’s wait it out. There’s still plenty of time. Let the people of Great Yan go to the border and see what kind of life they are living.”
Huo Xiaolong raised his eyes, his deep, bright eyes looking at the woman who was ten months pregnant. He pointed at her with his calligraphy brush and said with a smile:
"You're the worst."
The little girl and Da Ni'er were also there, along with the Sun siblings and Jiang Tianxin.
"Does that mean we can't fight again?" Sun Zixi asked, propping his cheek with one hand.
"Yeah, why do you think about war all the time?"
"How impressive! I am an envoy; they will all be afraid of me."
“Sun Zixi, you’re already twenty-six this year, not a teenager anymore, why are you still acting so arrogant?”
Huo Xiaolong sometimes felt that his girlfriends were getting older but not smarter. They were all so old, yet they were still thinking about weirdos.
That's true, Sun Zixi has always loved bears and has been like this since he was a child.
"So what? He's so handsome, you wouldn't understand."
Huo Xiaolong nodded resignedly, "Fine, I don't understand."
She looked over at the younger girl and realized that she was another one who was all age and no brains.
She fell asleep on Da Ni'er's body, and Da Ni'er was also dozing off.
"We're talking business, kid!"
Hou Xiangxiang groggily opened her eyes, rubbed her drool on Da Ni'er, and then looked at Long'er and said:
"You two talk, what does it have to do with me, a doctor? I'm here to watch over the sword."
Long'er continued to nod and tapped the table a few more times, signaling Da Ni'er to wake up, but Da Ni'er acted as if she hadn't heard her at all and raised her legs even higher.
"Da Ni'er!" Long'er said, feigning anger.
"What are you doing? Fighting? I'll lead the grasslands first!"
Huo Xiaolong looked at Huo Panlijian in despair, then at his sisters who had grown up with him, each one more belligerent than the last.
There was one who was obedient, Jiang Tianxin.
I only asked one question from beginning to end.
"Want to fight?"
"So, should we fight or not?"
"Go ahead and fight!"
"beat!"
These words seemed to be stuck in her mouth. Now I finally understand why Li Jian has to worry so much; none of these people are easy to deal with.
"Alright, that's enough for today. Let's go home and sleep." Long'er got up; she also had to go back and cuddle her sweet and soft daughter and her sweet and soft brother Tingche to sleep.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Hmm, Long'er, can I sleep between you and Lan Tingche?"
"Count me in."
Da Ni'er and Xiaohai Jie are both frivolous.
"Get lost."
Looking at the three of them just like when they were little, Li Jian couldn't help but laugh out loud. It's so nice, just like before, there's nothing to do.
That laugh caused a problem.
Li Jian felt a surge of heat beneath him.
"Li Jian, did you wet your pants?" Sun Zixi was still nagging from behind.
The little girl instinctively turned around and shouted to her grandson, "..."
"Why are you wetting your pants? Your water has broken. Take her to the delivery room right away."
"Jiang Tianxin, go and call Shen Qinghe over."
"Long'er, go and invite Grandpa Lou and the others over."
"Da Ni'er, go out of the palace to the Shen residence and summon Mr. and Mrs. Shen."
"Sun Ziyang, go to the Imperial Hospital and call me Master and Senior Brother."
The scene of Li Jian giving birth was similar to that of Huo Xiaolong giving birth. The little girl thought to herself, Li Jian absolutely cannot have anything happen to her. She is not only the future prime minister of Great Yan, but also half of Huo Xiaolong's life.
Huo Xiaolong looked at the memorial and all he could do was point to the sharp sword.
"Sword, look at me! Take a deep breath! Don't shout, conserve your energy, eat something first!"
