Chapter 14

Originally, the Central Plains was unified, and it was the Fire Phoenix Empire where women were respected, but because the empress was fatuous, the country gradually declined, and resistance forces arose everywhere.After several battles, the rising three kingdoms are Yue, Qi, and Wu.Years of wars exhausted the Three Kingdoms, and they acquiesced to such a split state. At the beginning, most of the leaders of the resistance forces were men, so the status of men gradually rose.The Yue royal family was actually the nobles of the original Huofeng Empire, so it became the only country in the Three Kingdoms that retained the custom of women in power.Thinking about it, it must be because men are unwilling to be inferior to women, so they will rise up and resist.

Wu Ya raised his eyebrows: "If you don't want to do this, I have someone else to choose."

Yan Xi raised her eyes: "Tell me quickly."

"The cloud is pure and worrying."

After saying these three words, Yan Xi nodded: "It is indeed a suitable candidate." Because Yue Kingdom is of noble origin unlike the other two countries, it pays more attention to blood, but the war at the beginning almost wiped out all the nobles of the previous dynasty. The only one left is the lineage of the Yan family, and the Yun family is a close minister who followed the Yan family's rebellion all the way, and the Yun family was also a former minister before the rebellion.Therefore, after the founding of the Yue Kingdom, the Yun family became the only big family in the Yue Kingdom.

"But... where is she now?" Thinking of this, Xixi frowned slightly, and became worried. Jingchou is her only close friend. She may have had a close relationship with all the generals for so many years, but Yun Jing is the only one who can be called a close friend. Worry about one person.

"I do know that she left the capital, and now the only ones left in Yue Kingdom are..." Wu Ya looked at Yan Xi, who widened her eyes: "You mean, Longcheng?"

"Presumably Yun Jingchou wants to transfer to another country. Even if it's not for her own sake, in order to preserve the power of the Yun family, Yun Jingyue will definitely let her transfer after hearing the news." Wu Ya shook his folding fan lightly, then looked into the distance Longcheng.

Yan Xi lowered her eyes: "Where is Fan Sukui?"

Wu Ya shook his head: "Because of this 'plague', the coalition army didn't even dare to take the prisoners, and went out of the city directly. General Fan should still be in the city."

Yan Xi nodded: "I'll come as soon as I go." Talking about luck, she left in a flash.

Wu Ya watched Yan Xi go away, and walked slowly back to the tent.

Yan Xi had jumped into Longcheng at this time, and the people in Longcheng were in chaos. In order to avoid leaking the news, Fan Sukui concealed the fact that the plague was actually poisoning, so people in the city were panicked.If Jingchou is really in the city, where should I find it?

"Yu... Yan Xi..." The voice behind her made Yan Xi's body tremble, she turned her head, and the person behind her was Yun Jingchou who she was looking for.

"Jingchou? How did you do it?" How could it be such a coincidence, even Xi Xi couldn't believe it.

Jingchou covered up the redundant expression on her face, and looked at the city wall behind her: "I was observing the situation on the city wall just now, and it happened that I saw someone crossing the city wall, so I came after you. I didn't expect it to be you." However, Jingchou answered Xixi's question quickly, because she knew it was her habit.

Yan Xi looked at Jingchou, took a few steps forward, and hugged her: "Jingchou..." These thousands of words of melancholy were finally condensed on these two words. In the past few months, from amnesia to memory... She has been through too many things.

Jingchou also put her arms around Yan Xi's shoulders, and patted it lightly twice, tears overflowed from her eyes, but the corners of Yun Jingchou's lips were raised, she knew it, she would not die so easily, she is from the country of Yue Phoenix!
After a while, Yan Xi let go of Jingchou and looked around, perhaps because of the severity of the disaster, no one noticed the two of them at all.Jingchou pulled Yanxi up: "Come with me, find a place, let's chat."

Yan Xi was taken by Jingchou to an inn, and when she opened the door, there were two people sitting inside, a man was bandaging Fan Sukui.To Cheng Xi's surprise, the man asked, "Seventh brother?"

The man turned his head: "Sister?" The seventh brother is his younger brother. He was expelled from the country by Yun Jingyue for treason with the elder sister. How could he be here?

Jingchou lowered her eyes: "Man'er is my husband." Knowing that Yanxi wanted to ask, Jingchou said it directly.

However, Xi Xi smiled and said: "You said earlier that you fell in love with Man'er, so I asked my father and concubine to marry you for you." After thinking about it for so many years, Jingchou was single and understood that she must be waiting for Man'er to grow up. Bar.

Yan Man stood up, then quickly ran over and jumped into Yan Xi's arms: "Sister, I miss you so much, I haven't seen you for so many days." Seeing him suddenly raised his head, his originally coquettish tone changed immediately, and he slapped directly She threw it on Yan Xi's face: "Tell me, what have you done in the past three years as the princess of the Yue Kingdom? You are absolutely ashamed of the people of the Yue Kingdom, and of the ancestors of the Yi family!" It is full of cruelty.

Yan Xi swallowed her saliva, raised her head, but her face was full of burning pain, presumably this younger brother who didn't practice martial arts must have used [-]% of his strength.

"Man'er! What have you done!" Jingchou pulled away the vine, then turned around and looked at the red mark on the face of Xixi, and couldn't help but raised her hand to caress it.

Xi Xi took a step back, avoiding Jingchou's hand, her phoenix eyes flashed with shame: "Man'er is right, I am ashamed of the Chang clan and the Yue Kingdom."

Fan Sukui stood up: "You don't have to be like this, the General. The collapse of the Yue Nationality is the trend of the times. Even if the General knew about it earlier, he might not be able to stop it."

Yan Man raised her head, looked at Yan Xi's face, bit her lower lip: "Sister, I'm sorry."

Xie Xi shook her head.

Yan Man smiled bitterly and said: "I know my sister's suffering, but sister, the Yue kingdom is gone, and the Yan family is gone. Where should I complain about the pain of my country's subjugation and the loss of my family?"

Yan Xi stretched out her hand and put her arms around Yan Man: "My sister knows, my sister knows, it's all my sister's fault that you have gone through all this even though you are only a child."

Yan Man did not refuse Yan Xi's hug. Apart from his father, the only sister who really treated him well in the whole palace was this elder sister of the same blood. If he hadn't experienced so many things, Yan Man might not have said a word about himself in this life. Sister's is not.

Jingchou frowned, and looked at the two with complicated expressions. In fact, she still didn't quite understand the relationship between the two of them. Her only younger brother, who came from the same line, always couldn't get close to her, and would never understand him. .

Yan Xi turned her head and smiled gratefully at Jingchou: "Thank you for taking care of my brother, Jingchou, you have helped me so much these years, I don't even know how to thank you."

Jingchou turned her face away, with a slightly gloomy expression: "Who wants you to thank me!"

Yan Man pursed her lips and said with a smile: "She is voluntary, sister, you can use it as you like."

Xixi frowned, and knocked on the forehead of the man: "How do you talk! Although Jingchou dotes on you, but now you are marrying her, you will have to listen to her in the future." Although the Yue Kingdom is a women's regime , but affected by the surroundings, men with high status usually marry, and outsiders, princes generally marry wives unless there are special circumstances.It's just that Manman is an exception. His target is the head of the Yun family, and he is only a concubine prince, so he is naturally married, and whether he was exiled and rescued by Jingchou, or married with a concealed identity, his status is naturally not higher than that of others. Prince.

Yan Man pursed her lips, but still rubbed her forehead: "I see, sister."

Seeing Yan Man's obedient reply, Yan Xi nodded in satisfaction, then tilted her head and smiled apologetically from Jingchou: "He has been spoiled by my father, so I should forgive Jingchou more."

Jingchou lowered her eyes: "That's up to you to say."

Jingchou has always been hard-spoken, but Yanxi has a soft temper and is not angry at her words.She found a seat and sat down, then looked at Jingchou.

Seeing her expression, Jingchou glanced at the two people beside her.

Yan Xi smiled: "It's okay, I want Jingchou to come out and preside over the overall situation."

Jingchou understood instantly, and then showed a sarcastic smile: "Are you sure that I will take over this mess?"

Yanxi stood up and approached Jingchou step by step, her voice was gentle enough to drip water: "I hope Jingchou can help me..." Standing in front of her, she showed a bright and moving smile: "Will Jingchou not want to? "

Jingchou was stunned for a moment, but she showed a self-deprecating smile: "You have already spoken, can I say no?" Yan Xi has never asked herself, only this time, such a rare opening must be known to be true. If she asked, it was impossible for him not to agree.

Yan Xi pursed her lips, and smiled reassuringly: "It is good luck to meet Jingchou by chance, now Jingchou will negotiate with the coalition forces, and then expel Muronglian from the country. The old forces of Yue."

"Your soldiers won't listen to me." Jingchou frowned.

Yan Xi bit her lip: "If there is a soldier talisman..."

"That guy Yun Jingyue!" Jingchou hammered the table hard, then looked at Yanxi, but saw that her expression was normal.

Facing Shang Jingchou's gaze, Yan Xi lowered her eyes: "Jingchou, did he take the soldier talisman instead of losing it?"

Jingchou sneered: "Who else could there be?"

Yan Xi looked at Yan Man, and saw that he also had a look of hatred on his face. In fact, she was still shaken in her heart. Facing Yun Jingyue, she didn't know how to face it. Although she swore that she would be loyal to her mission, this heart?

Jingchou narrowed her eyes and squinted at Yanxi: "You really don't give up!"

Yan Xi turned her face to the side, her expression indifferent: "I know, I will never be soft-hearted when we meet again next time."

Jingchou smiled lightly: "Just remember what you said now!"

Fan Sukui coughed twice to interrupt the dispute between the two of them, after all, some private matters of Yan Xi were involved, and it was inconvenient for her to listen to them.

Jingchou sat on the wooden bench next to her, raised her eyebrows: "Tell me, what is the specific plan?"

Yan Xi pursed her lips: "Now some people in the coalition army have been infected with the plague. You asked Yan Man to pretend to be a famous doctor to treat their illnesses and use this as a condition for negotiation, but..." Yan Xi frowned slightly at this point.

Jingchou nodded: "I know, I will risk my life to protect the people of Yue."

 As for why the king of Qi is also called the emperor of Qi, it is actually because the default is that only those who can lead the Central Plains can be called emperors. Naturally, no one in the Three Kingdoms will accept it, and they are unwilling to call the monarchs of other countries emperors, but the emperors of the Three Kingdoms proclaim themselves emperors. , so he will still be called Qi Huang in person.The words behind it are usually called King Qi.
