After the general's wife was reborn, everyone knelt down and begged her for mercy.

Jiang Yan walked over and saluted.

"A Yan, a country cannot live without a king for a day. Likewise, the current situation requires a capable prince." Emperor Xia Wen looked at Jiang Yan and said, "Come back, A Yan, you are my son. This position belongs to you." a share.”

Jiang Yan shook his head: "Although I am your son, my name is not justified. If I really return to my identity, what will become of my mother? What about the National Protectorate Guild?" After a pause, Emperor Xia Wen continued before he could speak. Said, "You still have a son."

"Hey." Emperor Xia Wen knew that what the child said made sense, but he just couldn't accept it. However, he stopped persuading him and changed the subject, "What you said makes sense, but the second child's eyes... The prince is blind, that is impossible."

"There is also the third child. His mother-in-law is now a noble concubine, so she has a high status."

"He... that's all, just him." Emperor Xia Wen hesitated for a moment and finally made up his mind.

In the court hall the next day, someone suggested that it was time to establish a crown prince, and then the third prince Xia Donglin was pushed out and made the crown prince on the spot.

The second eldest son, Xia Qiulin, was also named a wise king. Although he was not around, he was directly given the palace.

None of the courtiers objected, because it was useless to object. There was no one else to replace him. You can't let a blind man become the prince, right?
In addition, Emperor Xia Wen also made Jiang Yan the Marquis of Zhenguo. He not only had the leadership of the Yulin Guards, but also gave him the military power of the Beida Camp.

Everyone has no objection to this. After all, if there is no Jiang Yan this time, I am afraid that the world may really change hands.

Xia Donglin was actually a little confused. After all, he wanted to withdraw from the fight temporarily, but he didn't expect to enter the center directly. Of course, since it was given to him, he would not refuse it. He got out of the queue and knelt down. On the ground, he received the imperial edict and the seal of the Prince of the East Palace.

The news reached Huguo Temple, and Xia Qiulin, who had always been forbearing, flipped over the chess table in front of him.

Lan Ning stood by silently, because he had experienced this scene many times.

"Where's Lan An? Is there any news?" Xia Qiulin took a deep breath and suppressed the evil fire.

"Not yet."

"Send him a message and tell him to hurry up." Xia Qiulin rubbed the ring on his finger, Wise King? Haha, then he should be a good king.

It’s just his eyes. When will they heal?
Jiang Yan, are you fooling me too?
Jiang Yan may have known his mood, so he came over without waiting for his call this time.

"Master Jiang, the third child has become the crown prince, are you too busy?" Xia Qiulin's tone was a little sinister.

"Why did the prince say this?" Jiang Yan smiled, glanced at the brand new chess table in front of him, picked up a pair of black stones and played with them, "The emperor is also helpless. After all, in the current royal family, he is the only one who can support it. It’s the East Palace.”

Xia Qiulin was silent.

"Actually, the prince doesn't need to be anxious." Jiang Yan glanced at the other party, "After all, the prince is not the same as the emperor. Besides, even the emperor changes hands sometimes, right?"

"you……"

"Your Majesty, I have found traces of the Five Poison Old Man again. I believe there will be no trouble this time."

"Really?" Xia Qiulin looked a little excited.

"Yes." Jiang Yan nodded, "I have sent Li Qi there, and I should be able to bring him back. It just takes time."

"Ayan, thank you." Xia Qiulin reached out to him and stopped calling him Marquis.

Jiang Yan looked at the hands that were stretched out, and after hesitating for a moment, he finally shook them.

"Don't blame me for having a bad temper. I'm really anxious. Staying here every day makes me... worse than death." Xia Qiulin sighed, "Nowadays, there are internal and external troubles, and I can't help at all."

"No." Jiang Yan smiled, "The prince also cares about the world, and the emperor will be very happy if he finds out." Xia Qiulin was silent.

"I wonder when the prince will return to Beijing?"

"We'll talk about it when our eyes are better. Go back now..." Xia Qiulin shook his head, "It's just a joke."

"Okay." Jiang Yan left.

Xinyang Hou's army has already captured two cities. With the help of the Hongmei Sect, it feels like it is overwhelming and has now reached Nanyang City.

Fu Junli, the garrison of Nanyang City, was loyal and patriotic, and led the soldiers of Daxia to resolutely defend the city.

As a result, after two failed attacks, a confrontation emerged.

War reports are coming in every day, making everyone panic.

In the end, the prince requested to fight, but was stopped by Jiang Yan: "The prince has just settled in the East Palace, and there is still a fierce battle in Beiyuan. If something goes wrong, it will easily shake the morale of the army, so let Wei Chen go."

"Okay." Emperor Xia Wen nodded and allowed Jiang Yan to send troops to attack the rebels.

Ning Ruyan knew that Jiang Yan was going south, so she begged him to leave the capital and return to Suzhou.

"Didn't you say there would be floods this year? Wouldn't it be more dangerous for you to go south?" Jiang Yan disagreed, "If possible, I also think you should bring your father and brother to the capital."

Ning Ruyan frowned, but didn't refute.

"I know what you are thinking. If you believe me, then I can do what you want."

Ning Ruyan raised her eyes and looked at the other person: "I believe you, but are you worthy of my trust?"

"worth."

Ning Ruyan nodded, then turned around and wrote a letter and handed it to Jiang Yan along with a white jade hairpin: "When you go to Xinyanghui and pass by Cangzhou, give these to my nanny or nanny, and they will assist you."

"Okay." Jiang Yan reached out and hugged Ning Ruyan, "Just wait until I come back. I will leave Li Jiu to protect you."

"No, you take them with you. I have the county lord to protect me. Moreover, my girl's skills are not weak, so I don't need you to keep anyone. I hope... you are safe."

Jiang Yan was stunned for a moment, nodded, then turned and left.

The days are passing quickly, and fortunately, whether it is in the south or the north, the news coming back is generally good news.

Entering June, the weather has become completely hot. It also rained heavily in the capital. At the same time, it also rained heavily in the south. However, the rain in the capital stopped, but the rain in the south continued.

Jiang Yan had already arrived at Nanyang City with his troops and horses. Because of his arrival, Fu Junli took a long breath: "Master Hou, if you come two days later, I estimate that the hundred or so kilograms of mine should be handed over here. ”

"Don't worry, I know what's going on." Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Come, tell me the specific situation."

Just as the discussion here ended, Li Wu walked in: "Master, there is something wrong with the military rations sent this time."

"What's the problem?" Jiang Yan frowned.

"Most of it is moldy and inedible at all." (End of Chapter)
