You sell swords, I go crazy, I am a father in Shengjing

Chapter 76 So You Still Want to Divorce Me!

Qi Xiao's move was not a momentary rush, but the result of his deliberation.

Hanyuguan was built by his father. This magnificent pass was too important, both for the entire Dazhao and for himself who was born in Hanyuguan.

The plague is not eradicated, and the civil strife is not peaceful. Once Beidi and Tatars go south, it will be the end of the mountains and rivers breaking and blood flowing into rivers.

Even if there was a snowstorm and the foreigners had retreated to the hinterland for the winter and could not easily discover the chaos in Hanyuguan, he did not want the veterans and their families left behind by his father and two brothers to become victims of some people's fight for power and gain by buying people's hearts.

He has a lot of things he wants to do, but he is very clear that Hanyu Pass is no longer the place where the whole people were focused on ordering and prohibiting more than two years ago.

His father and brothers are gone, even if he has their old subordinates to help him, it will be difficult for him to shake the new faction supported by the prince's lineage, which is now flourishing in Hanyu Pass.

Of course, he can also take his time. He believes that as long as he is given another half a year, he can regain control of the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion...

Even if he doesn't return to the Hou Mansion, he can still take over Chixiao Camp and inherit the legacy of his father, mother and brothers...

But time waits for no one, and now he can't suppress others in the open.

After all, he is just a consort with no real power.

In other words, if he wants to rectify Hanyu Pass as quickly as possible, he must get Feng Xi's help, and it is not Feng Xi's words, but her presence with him.

With her here, even if the prince comes, he will still be invincible...

However, at this moment, he heard Feng Xi say three words:

"No way..."

The girl's tone was very embarrassing, and she almost refused him directly.

Qi Xiao lowered his head. He did not smile bitterly or complain. He even felt that it was normal for Feng Xi to reject him.

Because after listening to Yuan Song's words, everyone knows that Hanyuguan is now a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.

Internal fighting, rampant plague, and foreign enemies are watching, and one person may never return and become a hero who died tragically in the eyes of hundreds of officials.

Ordinary people and officials are still afraid, what about him?

He actually asked the princess to go with him.

"Husband-in-law, it's not like you don't know what's going on at Hanyuguan right now. You and I can go, but the princess definitely can't! If the emperor and the old prince were here, they wouldn't agree."

Liu Wanshi was already a rare honest official, but at this moment he did not agree with Qi Xiao's move to invite Feng Xi to accompany him.

Whether their princess is placed in the royal family or the noble family, they are already able to endure hardships!

But enduring hardship and risking one's life are two different things. Officials like them still hope that after the princess returns to the court, she will open up a new world and let more people benefit!

Hearing what Liu Wanshi said, Qi Xiao finally smiled. He didn't raise his head, but said in a low voice:

"Master Liu is right, I was the one who was abrupt..."

"Where, son-in-law, you are also worried about the border, and you are thinking about those veterans and the whole Dazhao. In this case, I will immediately send someone back to the city to inform the elder Ge, let him revise the book and return to Beijing, and ask the emperor to send two more people who can hold the situation. I Elder He Ge will set off with you tomorrow, and go to Hanyuguan together."

Although Liu Wanshi vetoed Qi Xiao's request to take Fengxi away, he also knew the importance of Hanyu Pass.

Although he is not as important as the princess compared to Li Ge, but with the influence of the son-in-law in Hanyuguan, he should be able to speak for himself.

Qi Xiao nodded, and was about to agree to Liu Wanshi's suggestion, but Feng Xi said indifferently:

"Did I say that I won't go? You two are singing harmony here. You are the princess and I am the princess, right?"

Feng Xi was speechless.

She hadn't finished speaking just now, and the two of them ignored her directly.

what's going on?

A princess as big as me can no longer attract your attention?
Qi Xiao raised his head, looked at Feng Xi with complicated eyes, and Liu Wanshi directly said:
"Princess, didn't you mean to reject the son-in-law?"

"I can't do it." He should not be the only one who heard the three words, right?

However, just when Liu Wanshi began to wonder if he was in his late forties and his ears were finally failing, Feng Xi nodded and said:

"It's a refusal, you heard me right."

Liu Wanshi: "..."

Then you said you didn’t say you wouldn’t go!
While being so slanderous, Liu Wanshi looked at Qi Xiao and Yuan Song, fearing that his princess's pranks would make them unhappy.

After all, he is well aware of the unusual significance of Hanyuguan to the two people in front of him.

As a result, he heard his own princess say:

"I can't say what I said, it's because I can't live up to anything in this life. With the broken relationship between me and the son-in-law, maybe one day they will be separated from each other and each will be happy. If one is not good, maybe there will be no joy at all." .”

Qi Xiao: "..."

Yuan Song: "..."

Liu Wanshi: "..."

Liu Wanshi and Yuan Song didn't know what Qi Xiao was thinking, they just felt a little cold, extremely cold, colder than shaving snow outside.

"So you still want to divorce me?"

When Qi Xiao gritted his teeth and asked this sentence, Liu Wanshi pulled Yuan Song up very sensibly, and led the stupid big man out of the room.

After going out, he closed the door very considerately and signaled with his eyes to Yuan Song, who wanted to come to the door, not to listen.

In the room, Feng Xi, who had been thinking about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, decided to accuse others:
"I don't have it, I don't, I think you're talking nonsense."

"Then why are you even willing to go to Hanyuguan, but you are unwilling to accept that I will not let you down?"

Qi Xiao still maintained the posture of kneeling on one knee. Even though his body was upright, he was still in a lower position in the eyes of Feng Xi who was sitting on the chair.

But for some reason, at this moment Feng Xi felt that the other party's gaze was like a net, not aggressive and intimidating, but just impenetrable, making her feel that there was no way out.

Feng Xi thought for a while, didn't understand, and immediately said as she pleased:

"So what you're saying is that if I don't agree to go to Hanyuguan with you, you will betray me?"

Qi Xiao: "?"

Before Qi Xiao could recover from her strange focus, Feng Xi said:
"It's up to you, as long as you are happy, I am very generous, really."

Waiting for you and your heroine to achieve positive results, I will be free and happy in retirement, bear me, bear me, hurry up!

However, Qi Xiao didn't notice the excitement in her eyes, because he was thinking deeply.

Indeed, if the Feng Xi in front of him was still the same as before, he might not only betray her, but also kill her.

But the Feng Xi in front of him is no longer the original one. If it was her, would he still betray her?
Probably not.

Looking up at the snow-like girl in front of him, thinking of her proud and casual attitude like a little phoenix, Qi Xiao smiled and said:
"In other words, even if I don't promise you anything, you will follow me to Hanyuguan?"

"if not?"

Feng Xi tilted her head, it was nothing more than a little effort.

"it is good."

Qi Xiao didn't promise Feng Xi again, but he thought he could delete the word "probably".

He will not let her down.
