The First Tyrant of Daxia

Chapter 4412 Xiao Yuxiang's Concerns

The Divine Phoenix followed Qin Yun's footsteps and came all the way to the bedroom.

The others could not see any clues, but Xiao Yuxiang, as the queen of a country, heard that Qin Yun's first destination after returning to the imperial capital was actually the bedroom, and she immediately realized that something was wrong.

She simply followed him all the way until Qin Yun arrived at the door of the palace. As she pushed the door open, she whispered, "Queen, you are hiding here and there. What are you hiding for? Don't you think I don't know?"

Xiao Yuxiang coughed lightly. She didn't expect to be discovered so quickly. She no longer hid and followed him in.

Qin Yun closed the door of the bedroom and asked Shen Huang to wait outside. He walked all the way to the bed, meditated with his eyes closed.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Yuxiang asked puzzledly.

"I'm fine." Qin Yun said calmly: "The enemy this time has many tricks. One of their skills is self-destructive. It's too wishful to think that they can trade one for one with me in this way."

It sounded light and casual, but when Qin Yun faced He Qingming's sudden self-destruction, if he had not subconsciously summoned the Innate Supreme Body to strengthen his body, and used the Imperial Sword Dao to suppress the opponent's Chongming Avenue, it might have caused serious consequences.

The energy generated by the self-detonation of Chongming Heavy Armor was in no way weaker than Qin Yun's full-strength imperial fury attack, and its power was terrifying.

Hearing this, Xiao Yuxiang's heart instantly rose to her throat: "You still call this okay? Your Majesty, you are injured, why don't you tell others, at least let the imperial physician take a look?"

Qin Yun chuckled: "Imperial Physician? Why not let Dongfang Tianxiang take a look? I said it's okay, don't worry."

As he spoke, Qin Yun used his spiritual power to heal his internal injuries, and his external injuries also healed at a speed visible to the naked eye as his spiritual power flowed through his body. Although Qin Yun said this, Xiao Yuxiang couldn't help but worry, and kept pacing back and forth in the bedroom.

Time passed by minute by minute. Seeing Qin Yun closing his eyes and not speaking, Xiao Yuxiang felt that something was wrong and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, how about I call Dongfang Tianxiang?"

Hearing this, Qin Yun waved his hand and said, "No need. I can only recover from this injury by myself. And once the news of my injury spreads, you won't be the only one who will be worried. The soldiers of the entire Great Xia Empire will be worried about it, and it will also be a blow to the morale of the army."

Xiao Yuxiang sighed softly and said helplessly: "It's already this time, and you're still worried about the morale of the army."

Thinking back over all this time, every time Qin Yun was injured, he would always return to his bedroom to recuperate. If it weren't for the imminent war, he would never reveal it to anyone. However, in the dangerous Baisha Realm, no one dared to claim to be invincible in the world, so how could he win every battle?

After a mental struggle, Xiao Yuxiang finally dispelled her doubts and quietly left the palace without saying anything. In the harem, Xiao Yuxiang summoned Qin Rui, who had just returned to the imperial capital.

Upon hearing that His Majesty had returned and the fighting on the front line had come to an end, Qin Rui and Long Xiao wanted to return and report as soon as possible. They took advantage of the time when Emperor Qin had just taken back the military power and Old Feng was out on the expedition to take credit in front of His Majesty.

Upon learning that Xiao Yuxiang had summoned him, Qin Rui had a bad feeling and hesitated for a long time in front of the bedroom door before entering.

"Mother." Qin Rui bowed his head, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

Xiao Yuxiang's face was calm. She walked slowly towards Qin Rui and said softly, "Don't bother your father anymore. The wars have been frequent recently and His Majesty is already tired enough. Every time His Majesty returns from the front line, his purpose is too obvious, isn't it?"

Qin Rui was stunned when he heard this, and all his doubts were completely dispelled. He mistakenly thought that Xiao Yuxiang was going to give him advice again. Although he knew that his mother had good intentions, he also knew that if he followed her advice, he would surely be appreciated by his father. After all, in the Great Xia Empire, the person who knew his father best was his mother.

But as soon as the battle for the throne began, he frequently followed his mother's advice. Even if he succeeded in the future, he would not be able to be a qualified king.

At this time, Qin Rui was still in a very naive state. He had no idea that the battle for the crown prince was cruel and concerned the entire officials of the Great Xia Empire. Not only did he need to be strong himself, he also needed the support of the court and the support of the people.

Qin Rui thought for a moment and quickly replied, "I understand, mother. It's just that my father has returned. I didn't come back from the front line to seek credit or reward. I just wanted to see my father."

"Really?" Xiao Yuxiang chuckled. "You think so, but will others think so? Everyone will think that you chose this time to come back in order to win credit in front of His Majesty. You and Emperor Qin were not seen at the celebration banquet, and you followed His Majesty as soon as he came back. Isn't your purpose obvious?"

Qin Rui frowned slightly, thinking of what Long Xiao said before he returned. Just as Xiao Yuxiang said, Long Xiao returned just to let Qin Rui meet Qin Yun in order to ask for credit and reward.

Although he did not have such an idea, he could not stop others from thinking so, and he also listened to Long Xiao's opinion.

"Mother, who do you think is the better teacher, Elder Feng or Long Xiao?"

Qin Rui changed the subject and asked, Xiao Yuxiang asked in confusion: "Whether it is Long Xiao or Elder Feng, they are both very good teachers for you and Emperor Qin. Don't you think that General Long Xiao can't learn anything from you?"

Hearing this, Qin Rui quickly shook his head and denied it: "No, mother, I definitely don't mean that. It's just that I feel that while I'm competing with Emperor Qin, it also affects the relationship between Long Xiao and Elder Feng."

As the first people to support the two princes, Long Xiao and Feng Lao were equivalent to standing in two different camps.

Whether it is Qin Rui or Emperor Qin, both of them are princes of Daxia. The former is the crown prince, and the latter has a deeper identity, which is well known to the officials of Daxia.

There will certainly be open and covert struggles between the two different camps, and friction is naturally unavoidable.

Xiao Yuxiang comforted him, "Don't worry. Elder Feng and Long Xiao will fight over you on the surface, but when facing a common enemy, they will still be united in hatred. Having followed Your Majesty in battle for so long, you can completely trust their judgment of the overall situation and don't take it to heart."

Qin Rui seemed to be thinking about something for a long time before he nodded and said, "I understand, mother. I will set off on a certain day and will not bother you, father. Please remember to say hello to you, father, on my behalf."

After he finished speaking, Qin Rui left the harem and went to find Long Xiao who was organizing his troops in the suburbs.

Seeing the prince return, Long Xiao hurried over to greet him: "What does the Queen want to see you about? Have you seen His Majesty? Did you mention the new battle situation and the powerful enemies you encountered recently?"

Qin Rui glanced sideways, shook his head with a hint of regret, and said, "Let's go. Mother meant not to disturb Father, but she didn't tell me the specific reason."

"What?" Long Xiao was extremely shocked. "The Queen doesn't allow us to meet His Majesty? But, but we haven't reported the powerful enemy we encountered recently."
