"Prince Geng"... Xue Xiao's expression was not very good. He looked at this royal dignitary coldly.
But this gentle middle-aged man had a faint smile on his face, and he was looking at Xue Xiao.
"I am here uninvited, please don't take offense to Marquis Bei Lie." Prince Geng's voice was very pleasant, like a burst of tinkling spring water that touched people's hearts.
Xue Xiao had already received the report from the family guards. He originally thought that Prince Geng would be taken to the living room of Bei Liehou Mansion, but he did not expect that Prince Geng would go straight to the courtyard where Ding Xiaoyi lived.
"You came here uninvited, I will probably kick you out." Xue Xiao's tone was not very good. Maybe it was because the two of them had different political opinions, or maybe it was for other reasons.
Ding Xiaoyi was sitting lazily in the water pavilion. He watched Xue Xiao stop Prince Geng who was about to step into the courtyard, with a look of confusion on his face.
"I heard that a young hero has come to Bei Liehou's mansion. I am here to pay a special visit." Prince Geng was not angry because of Xue Xiao's unfriendly tone. He still said to Bei Liehou in a friendly manner.
Prince Geng only brought Xia Houxue and the young guard, and did not bring too many guards into the Bei Liehou Mansion.
"Young hero, that's my guest." Xue Xiao didn't feel good because Prince Geng said nice things, he still said displeasedly.
"Marquis Bei Lie, you are still the same and have such a bad temper. I just came to visit the young hero." Prince Geng indeed has a good temper and does not show any displeasure.
"Prince Geng, what do you want to do?" Xue Xiao's expression was not good-looking, and he asked Prince Geng coldly.
"As I said, I'm just paying a visit to the young hero, that's all." Prince Geng still had a faint smile on his feminine face as he replied to Xue Xiao.
"Prince Geng, my dignified Marquis Bei Lie is at home, but you have never set foot in my Marquis Bei Lie Mansion. Today, I have guests in my Marquis Bei Lie Mansion, so you came here in a hurry. What on earth do you want to do?" Xue Xiao He was blocking the door of the courtyard, refusing to let Prince Geng enter, and his tone was getting worse and worse.
"Marquis Bei Lie, I know that you are still brooding about what happened ten years ago, but I have made it very clear that that was not my original intention. I also have my own reasons. Do you just not believe me so much? King?" The feminine middle-aged man had a bitter look on his face as he explained to Xue Xiao.
"Prince Geng, shut up, do you still have the nerve to mention what happened back then?" After hearing Prince Geng's bitter words, Xue Xiao's face changed drastically, and he yelled at Prince Geng.
The illustrious Bei Liehou Biao Bing was the only remaining Wuhou in Dayong, but he still didn't have a good look when facing the Great Yong royal family, Xiahou Changgeng.
Apparently, Xia Geng and Chang Geng looked as if they had done something guilty, with a look of helplessness and bitterness on their face.
"Marquis Bei Lie..." Prince Geng's lips moved several times, but in the end he did not say anything. Seeing Prince Geng who looked a little guilty, the anger on Xue Xiao's face faded away like a tide.
He knew that Prince Geng was not actually to blame for that incident, but he couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart. He placed all the responsibility on Prince Geng.
If Prince Geng hadn't attacked rashly, if Prince Geng hadn't made a mistake in his command, how could they have fallen into Xiao Qiuhan's plan, which ultimately led to the burial of one hundred thousand Dayong elites in Tianying Valley.
One hundred thousand elites, one hundred thousand robes and one hundred thousand brothers, just buried their bones in a foreign country and buried their souls in a foreign country. The Battle of Tianying Valley happened more than ten years ago. It was the largest battle between Dayong and the Northern Demonic Kingdom. It ended hastily with Dayong's hundred thousand elites being buried in a foreign land.
Dayong was defeated in the battle of Tianying Valley, and this battle became the pain of Xue Xiao's life. One hundred thousand Dayong elites were buried in Tianying Valley. Even the corpses could not be brought back to Dayong. This battle also became a stain on Xue Xiao's life.
Xue Xiao couldn't help but tremble when he thought of the hundreds of thousands of robes buried in Tianying Valley. In that battle, Xue Xiao was the coach and Prince Geng was the supervisor.
However, Prince Geng overstepped his authority and allowed one hundred thousand Dayong elites to fall into the trap of Xiao Qiuhan, the head coach of the Northern Demon Kingdom.
In the battle of Tianying Valley, none of Dayong's 100,000 elites survived. Prince Geng escaped under the escort of his guards.
At that time, Xue Xiao was leading thousands of elite soldiers to attack the back camp of the Northern Demonic Kingdom. The attack failed, but he heard the bad news.
By the time Xue Xiao arrived at Tianying Valley, it had become a purgatory on earth, and one hundred thousand Dayong elites had been massacred by the cavalry of the Northern Demon Kingdom.
This battle also became the pain of Xue Xiao's life as the coach, and also became Xue Xiao's nightmare. If Prince Geng hadn't privately led his troops to advance rashly, it would have been impossible for a hundred thousand elite soldiers to bury their bones in Tianying Valley.
Seeing Xue Xiao's excited expression and red eyes, Prince Geng also let out a long sigh. In fact, he also had his own difficulties, but it was impossible to talk about them. Even when facing Xue Xiao, he remained silent.
After this battle, Emperor Yong did not impose any punishment on Xue Xiao and Prince Geng, but only lightly comforted them with a few words.
He said that victory or defeat was a normal matter for military officers, and when he heard Emperor Yong's gentle comfort, Xue Xiao had some guesses in his heart, but he could only keep them in his heart.
One hundred thousand heroic souls and one hundred thousand loyal bones, all lingering in Xue Xiao's mind, became a sharp thorn in his heart that could not be removed, making it difficult for him to sleep or eat well.
One hundred thousand heroic souls, one hundred thousand families, but he didn't even have the ability to bring back this loyal soul. After the battle at Tianying Valley, Xue Xiao took off his armor and returned to the imperial capital Yinning.
After Ding Xiaoyi saw the different expressions of the two people, he sighed in his heart. He had heard about the battle in Tianying Valley more than ten years ago.
Some people say that Prince Geng overcame his servants to take command, while others say that Xue Xiao, the Marquis of Northern Lie, was so happy that he entered the encirclement of the Northern Demon Kingdom.
No matter how the public evaluates Bei Liehou, and no matter how the public discusses Prince Geng, Dayong Palace has not issued any statement.
The civil and military officials of Dayong were even more silent. This time they were surprisingly united. There was no imperial censor to report to Prince Jigengeng, and some civil servants jumped out to accuse Bei Liehou.
After this battle, Bei Liehou and Prince Geng became like strangers, and they never had any interactions with each other.
This time, because Ding Xiaoyi came to Bei Liehou Mansion, two high-ranking and powerful ministers of Dayong gathered together again.
Ding Xiaoyi is also very curious as to why Prince Geng came to find him.
"Prince Geng, please come back. You are not welcome in Bei Liehou Mansion." Xue Xiao issued the eviction order unceremoniously, and his expression turned extremely ugly.
But although Prince Geng's face still looked bitter and helpless, the smile on his face still did not disappear.
"Marquis Bei Lie, you are not your guest. How do you know that your guest will not see me?" Prince Geng's tone changed slightly, and he released an overwhelming aura.
That feminine middle-aged man finally showed the tip of the iceberg of his strength. He has always been the most noble prince of Dayong.
Feeling the majestic momentum released from Prince Geng's whole body, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes. At this time, Bei Liehou was like a volcano waiting to erupt, and his suppressed anger was almost uncontrollable.
Prince Geng's feminine face revealed an irresistible majesty and dominance. The princes were so angry that the heaven and earth shook, not to mention Prince Geng, who was the most noble of Dayong.
But Xue Xiao was not afraid at all, and his restrained aura almost roared. Two powerful ministers of the Great Yong Dynasty seemed to be about to quarrel with each other. There were fiery sparks in their eyes, and the war seemed about to break out.
"Your Majesty has an edict, and Bei Liehou Xue Xiao accepts it." Just when the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two powerful men in Dayong was about to break out, a sharp voice broke the deadlock.
No one expected that Emperor Yong would issue an imperial edict at this moment, but the breaths of the two great Yong nobles who were tit for tat also slowed down and subsided like a tide.
Ding Xiaoyi was also stunned. He originally thought that Xue Xiao and Prince Geng would have an earth-shattering battle, but he didn't expect that it would be disturbed by the eunuch from the palace.
He also didn't understand why Emperor Yong made the decree at this time. Did Emperor Yong know that Xiahou Xiying was in Bei Liehou Mansion?
"Ah, it turns out that Prince Geng is here too. Now that's good. The Sa family has met Prince Geng.
", a eunuch holding a fly whisk rushed over in a hurry, with a layer of dense sweat oozing out from his forehead. It was obvious that he came to Bei Liehou Mansion in a hurry.
"His Majesty orally ordered the Marquis of Bei Lie and Prince Geng to enter the palace immediately to meet the Holy Spirit without any mistakes." The eunuch did not pay attention to Xue Xiao who snorted coldly, nor did he pay attention to Prince Geng who had a smile on his face. Instead, he hurriedly uttered the oral edict of Emperor Yong.
Upon hearing the eunuch's oral instructions from Emperor Yong, Xue Xiao's expression changed slightly, and Prince Geng's expression also became solemn.
