Chapter 317 We Are Not the Same
Chapter 317 We Are Not the Same
Gaoguo readily agreed to Yanguo's conditions, and 100,000 taels of gold, 5 million taels of silver, and Gao Xu, the prince of Gaoguo, appeared in the Yan army.
The prince of Gao State was only thirteen years old, of medium height and slightly overweight.
He stood timidly in front of everyone, twisting his fingers nervously, with several servants beside him.
Yan Longyi glanced at the servants and said calmly, "Prince Gao will stay. You can go back."
Several people knelt down with a plop: "Your Highness, we are all servants of the prince. Please let us stay and serve the prince."
"Don't worry, our Yan Kingdom will never treat the prince of Gao Kingdom unfairly. Once he goes to Yan Kingdom, there will be people to take care of him. You don't have to worry about it."
Yan Longyi's words meant rejection.
"This……"
Several servants looked embarrassed, still worried that no one would take care of the prince.
At this moment, the thirteen-year-old boy mustered up the courage to say, "Uncle Zhong, Nanny, you two can go back. Xu'er is grown up and can take care of himself."
Young Gao Xu knew that the King of Yan did not allow anyone to follow him because he did not want anyone to instigate him.
Since he went to Yan State as a hostage, he would have to obey Yan State's orders in the future.
"Prince, please take care of yourself."
Several servants wiped their tears and cried, but eventually left.
When King Gao heard the news, he didn't react much, after all, he had many children.
The queen cried bitterly, but there was nothing she could do.
After the two countries reached peace terms, the Yan army began to retreat.
The King of Yan reported to the Emperor of Yan, asking him to send someone to take over the territory of Gao State that had been conquered by Yan State.
At the same time, Yan Longyi ordered the border guards of Yan and Gao to move to the newly occupied border cities.
When this news reached the Yan court, the Yan rulers and their ministers were greatly encouraged.
In the city of Yanjing, countless women were fascinated by the King of Yan.
When Le Ning got the news, she was admiring plum blossoms in the garden with some powerful women.
The winter plum blossoms were in full bloom, emitting a faint fragrance, but the women had no interest in appreciating them.
They talked about the handsome and imposing King Yan, who was still unmarried.
"What do you think? Can the woman that Prince Yan likes come back with him?" A woman asked with her chin in her hand and her black eyes wide open.
"Who knows? It's best if she doesn't come back." Another purple-clothed woman snorted coldly, "What a vixen!"
"That's right, if that woman comes back, won't we have no chance?"
"Whether you come back or not, you have no chance. The Queen Mother likes Le Ning, not you..." another woman joked.
A few of them were chatting and teasing each other, but they found that Le Ning hadn't said a word.
"Le Ning, what do you think? I heard that you saw that woman?"
The woman in purple looked at Le Ning expectantly, wanting to learn more.
Le Ning once followed the Prince of Yan to Daxuan. She was quite brave, so it's no wonder that she caught the Queen Mother's eye.
"Yes, I have met Miss Si." Le Ning smiled slightly, "Miss Si will definitely come."
"Are you so sure?" The purple-robed woman looked displeased. "Isn't Si Yan a first-rank female official in Daxuan? She's also a female general. How could she leave Shangjing so easily?"
Le Ning said calmly, "Whatever Miss Si wants to do, she can do it."
Everyone:...
Another woman in pink said, "Le Ning, have you forgotten? The position of Princess Yan should have been yours. The Queen Mother has taken a liking to you, so you must work hard."
Le Ning gently picked up the tea and took a sip: "I no longer have any extravagant hopes. I advise you to stop thinking about Prince Yan. No one can shake Miss Si's position in Prince Yan's heart."
Someone was about to retort when a sister secretly pulled her sleeve.
Le Ning today is no longer the same kind of person as them.
Everyone suddenly fell silent and stopped talking recklessly in front of Le Ning.
As for the woman from Daxuan, they will wait and see.
Although it is rumored that Si Yan is stunningly beautiful, how beautiful can a woman who fights and kills all day long be?
She is definitely not as beautiful as these girls who are kept in the boudoir.
Besides, the prince is a prince of Yan State, so he should marry a woman from Yan State.
When the army returned to Yan State, they were not in a hurry. Yan Longyi and Si Yan rode side by side in the army.
Yan Longyi brought a snow fox cloak to Si Yan, but Si Yan said he didn't need it and asked someone to take it back.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh that Miss Si was really not afraid of the cold.
Yan Longyi knew that A Yan was deliberately maintaining his body's adaptability in severe cold conditions.
All the soldiers in the special training camp under A Yan, including Sice, Sizhe, Zhen Jun, Pei Cuo and others, were dressed relatively lightly.
As they walked, Yan Longyi said, "Ayan, Gaoguo was able to agree to Yanguo's conditions so readily, and you played an indispensable role."
"What have I accomplished?"
"You are so famous and powerful. Just standing there will be a deterrent to the Gao Kingdom."
A Yan dressed up that day to let Gaoguo know that Daxuan and Yan were one.
It can be seen that Prime Minister Gao is as wary of A Yan as he is of the King of Yan.
Si Yan said nothing, flicked the whip, and galloped forward on his horse.
Yan Longyi smiled slightly and quickly chased after him.
After a while, the two of them left the army behind, and only Yun Li and others were riding horses and chasing after them.
After Yun Li sent Si Ru back to Shangjing, he hurried back to find his master. When he learned that his master and the prince were in Gaoguo, he rushed over immediately.
In early winter, it began to snow at the border of Yan State. The snow in Yan State came much earlier than in Shangjing.
At this time, Shangjing began to feel slightly cold, and Yan State was covered in ice and snow.
Yan Longyi chased after his superior, Si Yan, and the two of them walked in the snow, letting their horses run free.
"Ayan, do you remember the night we stayed in the cave on Vulture Mountain? It was snowing just like this too."
"I don't remember." Si Yan teased him.
"I do not believe."
As Yan Longyi spoke, he exerted force on his legs and jumped off his horse and onto Si Yan's horse.
"Neigh!" The sitting horse neighed twice, as if expressing its dissatisfaction.
Yan Longyi gently put his arm around the woman's waist and whispered in her ear, "I want to ride on the same horse with Ah Yan."
Si Yan didn't say anything, and the faint orchid-like fragrance of a man came to his nose.
His hot breath sprayed on Si Yan's ear, bringing a slight itch, and a gentle kiss fell on her snow-white neck.
There is tranquility between heaven and earth, with ice and snow everywhere. Snowflakes fall to the ground, and it is so beautiful that it looks like a fairyland on earth.
The two of them quietly enjoyed this brief moment, hugging each other tightly and expressing their longing for each other.
Behind, Yun Li and Si Rong followed slowly, neither staying too far away nor going forward to disturb the two masters.
Yun Li saw that Si Rong's face was pale, and he seemed to be somewhat uncomfortable with the climate of Yan State.
"Miss Si Rong, the weather in Yan State is very cold, not as cold as in the capital..."
"It's a bit cold." Si Rong said through gritted teeth.
Yun Li handed over a mink coat: "Put this on to keep warm."
"I...I'm fine..."
"Put it on. If you catch a cold, you won't be able to serve the master."
"Thank you." Si Rong then took the coat and put it on himself, and immediately felt much warmer.
