The wind is bleak and cold.
Looking at his extremely weak wife in his arms.
Xu Xiao was furious.
"That bitch Zhao Li said he was calling me back to the palace to give me a reward."
"But I didn't expect to secretly harm you and our unborn child."
"Even if I pierce the sky today, I still want to let that dog emperor know that our Xu family fights and fights for Li Yang for the sake of the people of the world, not for a wolf-hearted thing like him!"
Xu Xiao looked grim and gritted his teeth.
He raised his hand and gave orders to the dead soldiers around him to summon 300,000 Northern Liang troops to counterattack Liyang.
"No."
"The peace of the world is at hand. Don't sacrifice so much of my Xu family for a woman like me."
"In the end, the wish for peace was not realized."
"Come and see the child I met on the road. I want to adopt him as my adopted son."
Wu Su, who was in Xu Xiao's arms, weakly held Xu Xiao's raised right hand with her palm.
Xu Xiao was not angry and wanted to continue to curse.
But he saw Wu Su holding his hand and caressing the unknown baby in his arms.
Only then did Xu Xiao have the intention to look at the baby that Wu Su was always holding.
This was definitely not his soon-to-be-born son.
Looking at the pair of bright eyes that also looked at him, Xu Xiao felt a little surprised.
This guy is quite brave.
Normally, even if you are not angry, not only children, but also adults will be so nervous that they tremble.
Children will be frightened and confused, and the babies will cry.
He had just activated the real fire, and the aura he exuded involuntarily was enough to make thousands of soldiers crawl to the ground.
The baby, who looked only about one month old, stared at him curiously with his big eyes.
This couldn't help but make him like this baby in his heart.
"Good boy, if this is for you when you grow up."
"I'm afraid our Xu family will have another outstanding person."
Xu Xiao's angry heart calmed down a lot because of Wu Changqing.
He grinned ferociously.
He casually put a jade talisman on Wu Changqing's neck.
"Since Su'er wants to adopt you as his adopted son, then you will be my son, Xu Xiao."
"Your Su Niang is suffering from this today. You have grown up, but you have to seek justice for your Su Niang."
Xu Xiao was angry before, but now he calmed down.
He also knew that if he rebelled now, Gu Ran would have the hope of changing Liyang's dynasty.
But it will make the peace that has gradually settled in the North Central Plains go to waste.
Not only would he be sorry for all the people in the North Central Plains, but he would also be saddened by the souls of the Xu family who sacrificed their flesh and blood for the peace of the world.
No matter how aggrieved and angry he felt in his heart, this matter had to be considered in the long term.
Fortunately, the baby in Wu Su's arms relieved a lot of depression in his heart.
…
When Xu Xiao and Wu Su returned to Beiliang Prince's Mansion safely.
The gate of Qingliang Mountain was already crowded with people.
Except for the servants in the palace.
There were also various generals of the Beiliang Army who were not fighting outside, military advisor Li Yishan, and Xu Xiao's four protégés except Chen Zhibao and Ye Xizhen were all present.
Among the four adopted sons, Chu Lushan, who was the most loyal, filial and as fat as a mountain of flesh, was the first to rush out.
He threw himself down in front of Wu Su.
"The child's unfilial piety caused his adoptive mother to suffer such a disaster in the capital."
"I, Chu Lushan, will lead the big snow dragon rider today to slaughter the entire Liyang Palace!"
"Avenge my adoptive mother!"
Chu Lushan kowtowed deeply, and his words were as angry as Xu Xiao.
"It's in the past."
"Let's meet your brother first."
Wu Su hasn't spoken yet.
Xu Xiao took the lead and waved his hands with a straight face.
When everyone heard this, their originally angry faces suddenly changed, and their brows lit up with joy.
Could it be that His Majesty the Prince was born?
But when everyone saw Wu Su's bulging belly, they couldn't help but frown.
One by one, they came up in confusion.
Chu Lushan jumped three feet high.
He took the lead in bringing that big, ugly face closer.
"Foster mother...this is?"
Chu Lushan couldn't help but be startled when he looked at the pink and jade-carved baby in Wu Su's arms.
Did he actually see a hint of outstanding character in this baby?
Where did this little monster come from?
The other three adopted sons also came up one after another, all with doubts on their faces.
"His name is Wu Changqing. I met him by chance on my way back."
"He is destined to me, and he will be your brother from now on."
Wu Su said softly, with a look of kindness on his face.
Xu Xiao also turned his head to look at the baby that he liked very much at first sight, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.
Chu Lushan saw this scene.
His eyes changed from confused at first, to sudden realization, and then to firmness.
Although he is not the biological flesh and blood of his adopted father and adopted mother.
But he was treated as his own son by his adopted father and adopted mother, that is, he was Chu Lushan's biological brother.
From now on, as long as he is around, no one can bully his younger brother.
Qi Dangguo, who is tall but has a simple and honest personality, was also very happy to see Wu Changqing.
He also regards the other person as his biological brother.
Yuan Zuozong, who was not good at words, stood speechless, but his kindness towards Wu Changqing could also be seen in his friendly eyes.
Yao Jian, a Confucian general, is gentle and smiling.
The civil war in the dynasty, which was originally fought against each other, gradually subsided because of Wu Changqing's arrival.
…
Three years passed in a blink of an eye.
these years.
Wu Changqing's life in the Beiliang Prince's Mansion was extremely comfortable.
The Beiliang family has a great cause and lacks nothing.
In the past three years, Wu Changqing has shown incredible qualifications.
Not long after I came back, I was able to speak.
He will be able to walk in three months.
He will be able to read and write in May.
When he was almost one year old, he could already read religious texts that even adults could not understand.
It can be said that he showed his extreme talent to the fullest.
Both King Xu Xiao and Princess Wu Su of Northern Liang loved her very much.
Even the eldest son Xu Fengnian became a little follower who followed Wu Changqing all day long.
One brother shouted at a time.
This day.
Chen Zhibao completely pacified the old Chu mob and returned to the Northern Liang Palace after three years.
After reporting military affairs to his father Xu Xiao.
He came straight to the courtyard where Wu Changqing was.
Although he was fighting abroad, he also heard many rumors about Wu Changqing's extraordinary talent and intelligence.
Wu Changqing is now three years old.
Xu Xiao deliberately asked him to try to teach Wu Changqing and help him solidify his martial arts foundation in advance.
He also happened to take the opportunity to see his younger brother who became famous at a young age with his own eyes.
When he came to Wu Changqing's private courtyard.
What he saw made him stop in his tracks.
The huge courtyard was filled with mountains of books that couldn't fit in the room, so a temporary shed was built and piled in the courtyard.
Looking at the little figure buried in the sea of books.
Chen Zhibao couldn't help but frown slightly.
He was very doubtful, could such a young child really read so many books?
