Although Yan Hao did not say his purpose of coming to Lei Yuan at first, Tao Yuan had already guessed that he was definitely going to retreat.

If Yanhao wants to withdraw his troops, he must have Lei Yuan's consent. Otherwise, he will have to spend time here until Lei Yuan announces his withdrawal. Because it had been agreed a long time ago that the two King Wu could expand their sphere of influence in Beiliang Pass based on their strength, but they also had their own areas of responsibility. Both parties had already written letters of commitment and submitted them to Emperor Wen.

Now that Yan Hao suddenly wants to retreat, he must let Lei Yuan take over the area he is responsible for, but taking over his area will not be of much benefit to Lei Yuan, and as long as he does not agree to take over, Yan Hao will always Loss of troops and strength. Therefore, if Lei Yuan wants to agree, Yanhao must pay some price.

The last time I lent food and grass to Yan Hao, Yan Hao agreed to double the food and grass back to Lei Yuan and give up part of his rights to Lei Yuan. Now that he came to beg Lei Yuan again, he would naturally have to pay more than before.

In fact, Yanhao's retreat was not to return to the capital. It would be too embarrassing for him to return to the capital like this. In his heart, he wanted to go to Bei'an City, but Lei Yuan couldn't agree to it. Even in the cities around Bei'an City, Lei Yuan couldn't let him go. Therefore, after Yanhao retreated, he could only retreat to a place several cities away from Bei'an City.

Yanhao withdrew his troops this time and handed over a large amount of power to Lei Yuan. It is absolutely impossible to say that Yanhao has completely given up fighting for power with Lei Yuan, and no one would believe it. The reason why Yanhao retreated was to preserve his strength and wait for the opportunity. And he did not return to the capital, not only because it would be too embarrassing to go back like this, but also to allow his soldiers to fully adapt to life in the north.

It was impossible for Lei Yuan not to know what he was thinking, but Lei Yuan agreed to let him withdraw because he could get a lot of power from Yan Hao before moving the capital, and because he had enough confidence in himself to deliberately give He gives him a chance to breathe, but he will never let his idea succeed.

After Qu Feng confirmed with Yanhao that he really wanted to withdraw his troops, he cried happily for a long time. Even if he didn't want to return to the capital, he would be extremely happy as long as he no longer had to live in fear.

Yanhao looked at Qu Feng, his face and heart were full of disgust. When he thought of Tao Yuan's face, he felt that he had been possessed by something evil. He didn't choose someone like that and chose the one in front of him. this person. If Yanhao hadn't still thought about the friendship from his previous life, Yanhao would have thrown Qu Feng away long ago and left him to fend for himself. He might still be keeping him with him now.

Because Miaochen was about to arrive, Tao Yuan asked Lei Yuan to send him back to Hancheng and wait for Miaochen in advance.

A few days later, Tao Yuan received a report that Miaochen had finally arrived, and immediately went out to greet him.

"Dad!" Tao Yuan had not seen Miaochen for several months and ran towards him happily.

"Ayun." Miaochen just got off the carriage and looked at Tao Yuan who was walking quickly towards him with a smile.

"Dad, where is my brother?" Tao Yuan asked excitedly.

"I'm sleeping in there." Miaochen turned his head and looked at the carriage. His attendant was coming out of it holding the child.

"Give me a hug." Tao Yuan immediately walked over and took the child from the attendant.

Tao Yuan looked at the white and tender child in his arms and said, "Xiao Quli, do you know me? I am your brother."

"He doesn't know how to recognize people yet, let alone he is still asleep, so he can hear you." Li Miao said with a smile.

"Come on, Dad, let's go in and talk. I'll ask the chef to cook whatever you like. After you're full, have a good rest." Tao Yuan hugged his younger brother and walked in with Miaochen.

Tao Yuan was not hungry yet because he had just eaten in the morning, so he hugged his brother and talked to Miaochen while watching Miaochen eat.

"Before I came here, I went to the palace to see Xiao'er. He has grown up a lot, but his face is still so round." Miaochen said.

Tao Yuan couldn't help laughing, "The king has always said that his face is too round. I thought that the face of a newborn child would be round, and it would definitely not be round when he grows up. But when my father said that, I also Start worrying, what if he still has a round face when he grows up?" "

There is nothing to worry about, because he is fat now, so his face is round. It was the same when you were a child. When he gets older, his face will not be round. It's complete."

Tao Yuan smiled, looked down at Qu Li in his arms, and missed Lei Xiao even more.

"There is one thing that you may not know yet." The smile on Miaochen's face suddenly disappeared.

"What's going on?" Tao Yuan looked at Miaochen and suddenly became serious.

"Your second uncle is dead." Miaochen said.

"Second uncle is dead? How did he die?" Tao Yuan was confused, how could a good person die suddenly.

"He led the troops to exterminate the water bandits, but was killed by the water bandits."

"He led the troops? What ability does he have to lead the troops?" Tao Yuan found it a bit ridiculous, "He doesn't even know martial arts, and he has never suffered at all. Isn't it ridiculous that a man actually led troops to exterminate the water bandits?" "

Actually, he is not the leader, he is just following to make up some numbers and earn some credit. Because Qu Feng is the only side who followed King Yanwu to Beiliang Pass. You are also the most promising to give birth to King Yanwu's eldest son. People from Yanwu's faction wanted to please him, so..." Tao Yuan

smiled, he didn't care whether the original owner's second uncle was dead or alive. , there are too many people dying every day in this world. To him, the second uncle of the original owner is the same as those insignificant people. And he was also a little gloating, because the original owner's second uncle died, and the most saddened one must be the old lady Qu who loved her son so much.

In the past, Mrs. Qu was even willing to harm Qu Cang for the sake of her youngest son. Now that her youngest son is dead, she must be heartbroken. Tao Yuan feels happy just thinking about it. They don't even need to do it himself. It begins to destroy itself. This is called evil being rewarded.

Although the second uncle of the original owner still has two sons, they are both extremely pampered. It would be lucky if they don't cause trouble, and they will never become great talents.

Mrs. Qu, who sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man, was indeed heartbroken and bedridden. She never thought that the only son in her heart would actually walk in front of her. She couldn't stop feeling sad, so she fell ill.

Miaochen rested in Hancheng for two days, and then went to Qucang's military camp. Tao Yuan left Qu Li behind and took care of him.

Miaochen left Hancheng, and Tao Yuan also took Qu Li to Lei Yuan's military camp.

Tao Yuan hugged Qu Li and watched him blow bubbles and play with his eyes open. He felt very cute and looked at him with a smile all the way.

After entering the military camp, Tao Yuan hugged Qu Li and got out of the carriage with the help of frost and rain.

Tao Yuan had just stood still on the ground and was about to walk to the tent when suddenly a white thing rushed out, and as fast as lightning, it rushed directly towards Qu Li in Tao Yuan's arms. Tao Yuan was shocked. He didn't even have time to see clearly what it was. He immediately activated a lot of spiritual power and bounced the thing out. Even the people next to him were bounced away by Tao Yuan's spiritual power.

Tao Yuan was so frightened that he couldn't care about anything else and quickly checked whether Qu Li in his arms was injured. Qu Li was so frightened that he cried. Tao Yuan carefully confirmed that he was not injured, but just frightened, and then he held him and patted him.

Jiangshuang and Rainfall were the first to lie down. Jiangshuang endured the pain and picked up the white thing. He raised it in front of Tao Yuan and said, "Wang Jun, it's a spirit fox."

"Where did the spirit fox come from?" Tao Yuan Frowning, he said unhappily, "Spirit foxes are extremely wild and can hurt people the most. Why is there no one to guard them and let this beast roam freely?"

Because the spirit fox almost hurt Qu Li, Tao Yuan was very angry. If he hadn't reacted quickly just now, Qu Li would have been seriously injured by the spirit fox. A child of such a young age would probably lose his life if he was injured by a spirit fox.

The spirit fox was injured by Tao Yuan's spiritual power. The corners of its mouth were bleeding and its body was twitching, but it was not dead yet.

Fang Ce happened to be passing by with his soldiers. When he saw Tao Yuan, he immediately came over to salute Tao Yuan and said, "Meet the king." "

Commander Fang, this spirit fox..."

"Xue Ji!"

Tao Yuan hadn't finished speaking yet. He was interrupted by a shout. Tao Yuan turned around and saw a handsome guy with a face as white as jade, running towards this side quickly, and behind this guy, there was a person who looked exactly the same.

Tao Yuan thought to himself, twins?

"Xue Ji! Give Xue Ji back to me!" That guy ran over to snatch the spirit fox away, but was dodged by Jiang Shuang. Because without Tao Yuan's instructions, the spirit fox who almost hurt Qu Li, Jiang Shuang Can't give it back to him.

Qu Li cried so hard that Tao Yuan felt very distressed and did not want to spare the fox lightly.

"I asked you to return Xue Ji to me, do you hear me?!" Sang Wen yelled at Jiang Shuang angrily.

"Awen, calm down." Sang Yun grabbed Sang Wen and advised him.

"Brother, they hurt Xue Ji, how can you tell me to calm down?!"

"They are..." Tao Yuan looked at Fang Ce and asked.

"Reporting to the king, these two are Wang Qing from the Sang Kingdom. The prince of the Sang Kingdom brought them here." Fang Ce said.

"Is this your spirit fox?" Tao Yuan looked at Sang Wen and asked.

"How about it's my spirit fox? Why don't you return Xue Ji to me quickly? If my Xue Ji is good or bad, I want you all to bury it with her!" Sang Wen stared at Tao Yuan and said loudly.

"How dare you!" Fang Ce yelled at Sang Wen, "How dare we, the king, be buried with an animal? Does your Sang country want to start a war with our Donglai country?"

Sang Wen and Sang Yun were stunned immediately. They didn't expect Tao I wish it was Lord Lei Wu. Sang Wen was too excited just now, and Sang Yun was in a hurry to persuade Sang Wen, so he didn't hear Fang Ce address Lord Tao Yuan.

"It turns out it's His Highness Wang Jun. We were rude. I hope Your Majesty Wang Jun won't care about it." Sang Yun bowed slightly to Tao Yuan and then pulled Sang Wen's sleeve, signaling him to apologize quickly.

Sang Wen glanced at Linghu heartbrokenly, and then reluctantly leaned forward quickly.

Tao Yuan glanced at them, then carried Qu Li and walked directly to the tent.

Jiang Shuang still held the half-dead and half-living spirit fox in his hand. He asked his attendants to find a cage, put the spirit fox in it, and then walked into the camp carrying the cage.

"Xue Ji..." Sang Wen wanted to follow up and get Linghu back, but Sang Yun held him back.

"Awen, don't forget the purpose of our coming here, let alone what the emperor told us before we came. The emperor said that King Lei Wu loves his king very much. If we offend him now, If he gives King Lei Wu a blow, our marriage to King Lei Wu will probably not happen." "

But Xue Ji was given to me by my father. I have raised her for so many years. How can I just look at her like this? Is it dead?!"

"Is it more important, Xue Ji, or our future happiness? Didn't you say that after meeting King Lei Wu, you made up your mind to marry him?" Sang Yun looked at him seriously. He said, "I told you a long time ago that you usually indulge Xue Ji too much. If Xue Ji really hurts the child in his arms today, she will be in big trouble." "Could it be that, is it really

necessary? Abandon Xue Ji?" Sang Wen has raised Xue Ji for so many years, and he already has feelings for her, and he is reluctant to let her go.

"Not to mention one Snow Queen, even ten Snow Queens must be given up today. If you can't help it, I will tell the emperor brother and ask him to send you back, and let the father find a suitable husband for you in the court. , I can stay alone and marry King Lei Wu."

"No!" Sang Wen widened his eyes and said in a low voice excitedly, "We have agreed that we will marry King Lei Wu together. This is the original plan. The two of them look exactly the same. It would be easier to seduce Lei Wu together. How can you be the only one to marry him?!" "

If you don't want to be sent back, follow me and apologize to the king later. You must do everything according to me. Do what you say, do you understand?"

"I understand, I will just listen to you." Although Sang Wen has a domineering temper, he is not a completely brainless person, and he knows very well that Sang Yun is better than him. She's smarter and calmer than him, so you won't go wrong listening to him.
