Chapter 297 He May Not Be My Biological Father
Chongzhou Prefecture City,
Three large boxes of real gold and silver were placed in front of Jiang Jichen and Hu Yan.
The old fox put away his folding fan, walked forward, took a piece of golden gold in his hand, weighed it, and asked the prince what he was thinking at the moment.
"Did the little ancestor take you to rob houses?"
The black-armored cavalryman raised his head and said proudly, "No!"
"These five thousand gold coins were given to Miss by Wen Hanshi, the border commander of Dongli..."
Hu Yan actually knew Wen Hanshi.
The general who only came to the border in recent years is from the princess's party. I have never heard of his name before. I guess he is a relative of the princess.
He gave the little girl gold?
What, you want to go undercover in Chongzhou? ?
The old fox thought for a moment and felt that this was full of conspiracy.
He looked at the prince and motioned for the soldier to tell the story in detail from the beginning...
After listening to the whole process, Hu Yan became more certain of his guess.
He glanced at the prince who was still sitting calmly on the main seat and smiled, "Aren't you worried?"
Jiang Jichen raised his eyebrows, and his fingertips circled the rim of the teacup, with a few drops of tea accidentally staining his fingertips.
He withdrew his hand and straightened his robe calmly. "The journey from the border of Nanshang and Dongli to Chongzhou is not short..."
"If something big happens, the news will come faster than these boxes of gold."
Since nothing serious happened, the only ones who will be in trouble are the people of Dongli.
Since he handed the army over to the little girl, he trusted her to be a good commander.
Hu Yan: "I am worried..."
He sat back down in his seat and his shoulders relaxed.
"Report!"
The next moment, the scout came to report.
From his hurried voice, I could tell that he had something urgent to do...
"Oh!"
Jiang Jichen placed the cup in his hand heavily on the table, his narrow eyes flashing with a faint light.
The scout stepped forward, but before he could kneel down on one knee to report, he heard the prince in a cold voice: "What's the matter? Tell me!"
"My Lord, the young lady was ambushed at the border, and General Huo was injured and has been sent back to Chongzhou City."
The sharp and cold air spread out with Jiang Jichen as the center, making Hu Yan and the scout who was replying shiver.
"How's the injury?"
"Your Highness, General Huo was stabbed, but he is not seriously injured. The military doctor just said he needs to rest."
Hu Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this moment, frowning, "You got stabbed... and you're okay?"
The scout didn't even dare to wipe the sweat off his forehead, and replied: "Yes..."
"The assassin was a civilian and had never killed anyone."
Therefore, it is understandable that it went wrong.
"Where's An..."
Jiang Jichen loosened his hand, and the cup was covered with cracks. After a slight cracking sound, the tea overflowed onto the table.
Hu Yan took a look with a subtle expression.
Who was that just now? He looked calm, look at him now~
I don’t know if the prince’s face hurts.
"The young lady is still leading the troops on patrol."
After thinking for a moment, the scout added, "No one was injured."
The old father finally calmed down, and after taking a breath, he asked, "Have you found out where the assassin came from?"
"Not yet."
Hu Yan: "No one was left alive?"
The scout nodded, "My lady has ordered that they be killed on the spot!"
This seems like a little girl's style.
Hu Yan: "Now that the official road repairs are almost complete, Your Majesty, would you like to take people to the border to pick up An An?"
Jiang Jichen shook his head and didn't intend to do so.
He waved away the scout who had reported the incident and said, "Since the king has asked her to take over as commander-in-chief, she cannot go now."
If he took over at this time, the soldiers would inevitably wonder if the little girl did not have enough ability to lead the troops, so he had to take over.
Before that, the impression that An had left in the hearts of the soldiers of the National Defense Army would be covered with a layer of dust...
"do not worry?"
Hu Yan thought about it, still feeling a little uneasy.
Such a good little girl, she must have been so scared when she saw the people around her getting hurt in front of her.
Jiang Jichen didn't say anything.
After a long while, he slowly said, "I'm worried..."
The unruly prince's shoulders slumped, his eyes filled with helplessness and worry.
It's rare to see a Jiang Jichen like this...
I only heard him say: "As a father, how can I feel at ease?"
No matter whether the little girl is seven or seventy years old this year, I am afraid that he will never be truly at ease as long as he is alive.
But he also knew what kind of personality his daughter had.
Jiang Jichen said that he would never restrict her.
So...even if he is worried, he will still let go!
The emotions in his heart were so complicated that even a prince couldn't taste them.
"Ah…"
He suddenly laughed, and looked at his friend half in self-mockery and half with emotion.
"When I was young, I always wondered... what it felt like to have caring parents. Now I have experienced it in another way."
Hu Yan also pulled the corners of his lips, but he didn't think that the prince was sad about the past, nor did he comfort him.
He knew Jiang Jichen very well, and now this sentence was more of satisfaction.
Thinking of Jiang An, that devil, the old fox muttered to himself.
To some extent, the appearance of the little girl is gradually healing the hurt the prince suffered when he was a child...
He pretended to stand up and said, "Then shall we go visit Huo Lang?"
Being stabbed by a civilian without any force, he was going to mock him~
Jiang Jichen nodded, "I will order people to prepare horses..."
"Your Majesty!"
Guan Yan walked in, followed by a servant.
"Meet the prince..."
He bowed deeply and raised his head.
This guy looks familiar...
Hu Yan pointed at him and asked uncertainly, "The servant of Yufulou?"
The servant smiled and replied, "Military advisor, you still remember me."
"My general sent me here to inform the prince and the military advisor..."
"Don't go visit him."
Jiang Jichen, Hu Yan: ...? !
Seeing that the two didn't understand, he continued to say more tactfully, "My wife is taking care of the general."
good good!
Hu Yan rolled his eyes. He was worried about the injury of this idiot just now.
People think that he and the prince are getting in the way!
Jiang Jichen held his forehead with his hand, "This king knows..."
"Hey, the little one will go back first~"
After saying this, the servant did not move, and the smile on his face became even more flattering.
Jiang Jichen asked him, "Anything else?"
He held up a finger, his voice a little weak, "There is indeed one more thing..."
Looking at him like this, it doesn't look like a good thing.
The prince looked at Guan Yan, who brought people in, with a questioning look in his eyes.
At this moment, Guan Yan had an intriguing expression and his lips moved a few times.
"My lord..."
"General Huo has sent Huo Changming here and asked you to help take care of him for a few days."
“Pfft…cough cough…”
Hu Yan couldn't believe it and scratched his ears in an indecent manner, "What did you say?"
A moment later, Huo Changming, holding his luggage and books, appeared in front of everyone with a wronged look on his face.
The old fox tutted twice and complained: "Your father is really a piece of shit."
Huo Changming kept a stern face and replied to Uncle Hu calmly, "Indeed, he may not be my biological father."
