Chapter 717 I have one last solution

General Xu, Xu Hongzhong, the father of side concubine Xu, was a great general guarding the northwest frontier with high prestige.

Since Ling Qi came to the fiefdom, he has been working hard to build a good relationship with him.

Of course, it was also because he took a fancy to the military power in the opponent's hands and hoped that he could help him.

However, this old general Xu was loyal to Emperor Zhao and refused to enter, so he turned a blind eye to his repeated greetings, let alone sent troops to help.

"The letter was delivered to Old General Xu yesterday, but there has been no movement so far."

Jiang Luo paused, "This subordinate guesses that this is probably his attitude."

"Oh, Yu Zhong!"

Ling Qi sneered, "Thinking that when he fought with his father, he didn't enjoy the glory and wealth. Instead, he spent his whole life in the desolate land in the northwest, so he didn't complain at all?"

Ling Qi once admired his integrity, but now he hates this kind of person the most.

Jiang Luo didn't speak at the side.

Even if it was a sweet pastry, the possibility of convincing Old General Xu was too small, so they had to give up.

"This subordinate thinks, maybe we can start from other generals. Although it is not as powerful as General Xu's, it is also beneficial."

"The ones you mentioned are all small people and can't affect the overall situation." Ling Qi immediately rejected his proposal, "The situation in the capital is so tense now, we don't have time to fight for them one by one."

Jiang Luo: "What the prince said is true."

Ling Qi stared at the setting sun outside the west mountain, squinted his eyes, and said a few words from between his lips and teeth, with a cold meaning, "This king has one last solution."

In the pavilion in the center of the lake, Xu Shan was looking up at the moon, when she suddenly heard footsteps on the wooden board, she looked back, a little surprised.

"I have seen the king."

She saluted quickly, but Ling Qi grabbed her wrist and supported her to stand up, "It's just you and me here, so there's no need to make such an empty salute."

"Thank you, my lord," Xu Shan smiled gently, and sat down with his support, "Why is your lord free to come over today? I heard that your lord recently got a strong horse, and it hasn't been tamed yet!"

Ling Qi: "Training the horse is not in a hurry. This king is busy with business during this time, so I haven't seen you much, so I want to come and see you tonight."

Pointing to the delicious food and wine on the table, he said with a smile, "I thought you wouldn't get used to it here, but I didn't expect you to find a good place."

"It's all to pass the time," Xu Shan looked at the bright moon above her head, her red lips parted slightly, and she sighed, "It's fifteen again, look, my lord, even the moon is round."

Her eyes were bright, and she didn't know whether it was the candlelight or the starlight that was reflected.

Ling Qi took her hand, followed her gaze, and landed on the white jade plate with shadows, "But miss home, miss parents?"

Xu Shan was taken aback, her eyes were slightly red, but she still smiled, "I miss my relatives a lot during the festive season, how can I not miss them?"

When Ling Qi was about to say something, Xu Shan said again, "But with the prince by my side, I don't feel lonely. I live like this every year, and I'm used to it."

Ever since she married Su Wangfu, she has been like this every year, nothing unusual.

She got up and poured wine for the two of them.

"My lord, this is the best sweet-scented osmanthus wine. I specially sent someone out to buy it today. I originally wanted the maid to accompany me to drink it. Now that my lord is here, I wonder if my lord would like to drink with me and watch the moon talk to the world?"

Xu Shan looked at him with a smile, but Ling Qi couldn't help feeling weird.
