"Don't fight over it, don't fight over it. I'll give it to you." Xue Wenyu looked at his wife's big belly and quickly handed the letter to her.

Mu Yingbao couldn't wait to take it, read it quickly from beginning to end, and then read it again carefully and slowly.

She looked up at her man happily; "Brother Hui let me decide."

Before leaving for the capital that day, Brother Hui issued an order in public in the palace that the war situation between Xixiang and Wuyu was changing rapidly, and that they should act decisively and act accordingly. If they waited for the reply from the capital before making a decision, it might not lead to an irreversible situation, but it would be much more difficult to deal with.

Therefore, the Duke has full authority over all matters.

But I didn't expect that even in the later period, regarding the affairs of the princes and grandchildren of Xixiang, Brother Hui's response was that this side would have full authority to handle it.

"This kid just wants to have some free time, so he lets me handle everything." Xue Wenyu's tone sounded like he was dissatisfied, but the expression on his face did not suggest so.

"Xue Wenyu, what are you going to do?" Mu Yingbao asked anxiously.

Xue Wenyu already knew what his wife was thinking. Even when she first caught those children, she actually had no hope of sending all those children to the capital.

Especially after going to Xixiang and having contact with the Queen of Xixiang and others. "Well, I have to think about this carefully. In theory, Xixiang has been with our Yan Kingdom for many years.

Grudges, repeated offenses, this time the princes and grandchildren of Emperor Xixiang have fallen into our hands, so we naturally cannot let them go easily.

Even if they are not taken into custody and imprisoned, at least their freedom of movement should be restricted and they should be locked up.

With them in hand, Xi Xiang will definitely behave himself and won't dare to do anything wrong again. "Xue Wenyu said seriously.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit in the stomach.

"Hiss, you want to murder your husband?" Xue Wenyu shook his belly exaggeratedly with a painful expression on his face.

"Stop pretending and biting me. I'm asking you something serious. Can you be serious?" Mu Yingbao said as he was about to twist someone's ear.

He is about to become a father, but why is he becoming more and more frivolous?

Before his hand reached the man's ear, it was grabbed; "Okay, okay, don't be angry, don't be anxious, it's not you who said that, people should keep a happy mood."

Mu Yingbao was not coaxed and stared at him.

"What are you going to do? Yingbao, we'll do whatever you say." Xue Wenyu saw that his wife was really angry, so he stopped immediately.

Dark? This is also possible?

Mu Yingbao continued to stare at him in disbelief. After all, this matter was not a trivial matter.

"Honestly, do you think I'm the kind of person who would use children to restrain my opponents?" Xue Wenyu asked with a smile.

"I know you are not. If you were, I would not have really agreed to live with you. Then I want those children to return to Xixiang. Why should we be afraid that Xixiang will become restless again? If they are still the same as before, we can just kill them directly.

After all, Xixiang was originally part of Yan State, so let's recover it for our ancestors. "Mu Yingbao now knew her man's attitude, and she felt relieved.

"Recover? Actually, this idea came to my mind when I first came here to repel the invasion of Xi Xiang after I became an official. When I reported it to the emperor, although he did not express his opinion, most of the ministers opposed it.

But I know that the emperor himself is also very conflicted and contradictory.

He wanted to recapture Xixiang and increase his political achievements, but he was worried about Wu Yu who was behind Xixiang.

After that, I never mentioned this matter again. "Xue Wenyu sighed with regret when he said this.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. It's not your fault. It won't happen again in the future. Our brother Hui sits in that position, but our brother Hui is not a tyrant who does nothing." Now the situation is reversed and it is Mu Yingbao's turn to coax him.

The feeling of being loved by his wife was really great. Xue Wenyu leaned back in his chair comfortably, stretched out his arms and hugged his wife to him. "Tell me, how do you plan to let those children go back? Should we escort them or let them pick them up by themselves?"

Yes, this is indeed a problem.

Mu Yingbao thought about it seriously, "How about this, for safety's sake, let our people escort them. But we also need to notify Xi Xiang, so that the mothers of those children can feel more at ease. Forget about asking their people to pick them up, it's really beyond the ability of Xiaoshun and his people, and they are far inferior to our people."

Xue Wenyu liked to hear this and nodded in agreement.

"I'll go talk to those kids right now, do you want to come with us?" Mu Yingbao stood up and asked.

I heard from the guards in the yard that after they came back from Xixiang this time, the children's emotions fluctuated. I think they were worried about whether they should take them to the capital next.

Although he is sensible, he is still young after all.

The feeling in Qucheng is definitely different from that in the capital, where there is only a border line between them and Xixiang State. But if you go to the capital, you will be far away from your hometown.

"Need I ask? Of course I have to go with you and my daughter. That group of people are all children. What if they hear the news that they can return to China and get excited and run into you? That would be terrible." Xue Wenyu said as he stood up.

Mu Yingbao looked at him speechlessly. He kept talking about "daughter", "daughter". She really didn't know whether he really didn't favor boys over girls, or if he did that on purpose because he was afraid that she would feel pressured or burdened.

Although she thought so in her heart, she couldn't really ask him these questions.

What are you afraid of? I’m afraid of hurting other people’s feelings.

How can you still question each other when you are still married?

"Girl, girl, girl, if the baby is born with a boy, I will tell him when he grows up that you like girls." Mu Yingbao couldn't help but threaten him.

"Just tell me, as a father, do you think I'm afraid of him?" Xue Wenyu said stubbornly.

The couple bickered, but did not interfere with their business. They walked out of the room while talking. Nanzhu, who had just returned from collecting clothes, saw that her master and his wife were together, so she did not ask where they were going and did not plan to follow them.

_If I need her to come with me, I will call her.

The couple bickered, but did not interfere with their business. They walked out of the room while talking. Nanzhu, who had just returned from collecting clothes, saw that her master and his wife were together, so she did not ask where they were going and did not plan to follow them.

If she needs to follow, she will be called.

When Mu Yingbao and the other person entered the yard, there was no need for Xi Xiang's guards to go into the house to call for help. The children who were playing in the yard had already run into the house on their short legs.

"Eleventh sister, the lady and the Duke are here." After entering the room, one of them told nervously.

The Ninth Brother goes out before dawn every day and comes back only after dark. Now the boss here is Xun Fei.

"Don't panic, Madam Xue is not a bad person, you guys just wait in the room, I'll go out and take a look." Xun Fei gently comforted the little ones in front of her...
