Chapter 69 The enemy country's hostage is a miserable male supporting role (1)
Good news came from the border that General Xuanyuan Yi of Yu State led his army to a great victory and the people cheered.
The State of Ji was defeated and had no choice but to surrender. It became a vassal state of the State of Yu.
The State of Yu demanded that the State of Ji send its prince as a hostage so that it could control the State of Ji.
In order to show its sincerity, Ji State had no choice but to send its prince to Yu State as a hostage.
In the palace of the state, everyone felt in danger.
Their Ji Kingdom had only one prince, who was the only child of His Majesty and the Queen, and was doted on. His Majesty was kind-hearted and was reluctant to send his eighteen-year-old son to the Yu Kingdom.
But the Yu Kingdom has already said that the person to be sent is the prince of their country.
"What do you think, my dear ministers?" Sitting high up in the morning, Emperor Ji Xuan's gorgeous robe gently fell to the ground, shining with golden light.
The hall was completely silent.
"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I think we should consider it carefully."
An old minister stood up. His old face was etched with traces of time, but his voice was still firm and powerful. "Although Ji State was defeated, we only have one crown prince in our royal family. We cannot be careless in sending out the hostage."
Emperor Jixuan nodded slightly, his face solemn.
"I know that the prince is my only child and the foundation of the country, but I really don't know what to do."
"I think we can try to negotiate with the Yu Kingdom and try to reduce the time limit for the prince's hostage, or put forward other conditions in exchange for their tolerance."
The old minister continued, "After all, the prince is our future, and we cannot easily send him into the tiger's mouth."
"But if we don't agree to their demands, Yu State may take tougher measures against us." Another minister said worriedly, "We must consider the safety of Ji State."
Emperor Ji Xuan took a deep breath and glanced at everyone in the hall. "I understand your concerns, Crown Prince, what do you think?"
At the lower right of Emperor Jixuan stood a young man in golden clothes, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a gentle face.
This is Lin Yiqian, the prince of Ji State. He is known for his virtue and gentleness. Both the common people and the ministers praise him highly.
Lin Yiqian had already known that Yu State wanted them to send a hostage to Yu State, and he had already prepared to deal with it.
"Father, have you forgotten that I have a younger brother?"
After these words were spoken, Emperor Ji Xuan suddenly remembered the past.
At that time, he and Queen Shu Niang had been in love since childhood. When he grew up, he married Shu Niang, and he promised her that they would be together for the rest of their lives.
But the maidservant beside Shu Niang climbed onto his bed. He wanted to kill the maid with a stick, but who would have thought that the maid was pregnant. His mother attached the most importance to offspring and could not bear to see him favoring Shu Niang alone, so she saved the child.
But later the maid had a difficult labor and died after giving birth to a prince. He already felt guilty about Shu Niang.
So the child was sent to the cold palace and left to fend for himself. If the crown prince had not mentioned it, he would not have remembered that he had such a child.
Now, Yu Guo said to send the prince, but did not specify the crown prince, so just send that child.
"I remember now. Take him out and send him to Yu State. You will be in charge, Prince." A few words decided a person's fate.
Lin Yiqian clasped his fists, bowed, and replied with a faint smile: "Yes, father."
?
The cold palace door was tightly closed, covered with mottled rust. The surrounding walls looked dilapidated, as if they had experienced the vicissitudes of time. The courtyard was overgrown with weeds, and the stone road was covered with moss, a desolate scene. The paper on the window was torn and rustled in the wind.
The room was empty except for a tattered bed and a table.
There is no sunlight in the cold palace, only dim light shining through the windows, which makes people feel endlessly depressed. In this silent cold palace, time seems to have frozen, and everything seems so quiet and desolate.
When Lin Shen just came in, he saw the environment he was in, which was damp and dark.
He was lying on a simple bed with a thin quilt covering him. The window was broken and the wind was blowing, causing him to shiver unconsciously.
It seems that the original owner's background was not very good.
"003, transmit the plot--" Lin Shen hugged himself tightly, trying to get some warmth.
"Okay." 003 nodded.
This is a small world evolved from a political intrigue novel, with the growth of the male protagonist Xiao Quan as the world line.
The hero, Xiao Quan, is the fifth prince of the Yu Kingdom. Because his mother is a lowly palace maid, he is not valued by the emperor. He has lived in the cold palace since he was a child and has been bullied by everyone. However, he learned to keep a low profile and successfully resolved many hidden dangers in front of the emperor. The emperor gradually remembered his son.
After starting to train, Xiao Quan began his own journey to seize power with other brothers, and later successfully ascended to the supreme position.
It can be said that this is a story about Long Aotian's counterattack and ascending to the throne.
The original owner was a little prince of another country, Ji. His experience was very similar to that of the male protagonist, but he was a dark and perverted person.
Because Ji State was defeated, the emperor of Ji State remembered the original owner and sent him to Yu State as a hostage. After the original owner met the male protagonist Xiao Quan, he found that they had the same experience, but Xiao Quan lived better than him, and he was jealous.
Later, he met the prince of Yu State, who was very kind to the original owner. The original owner regarded the prince as his own brother, so he always wanted to frame and assassinate Xiao Quan.
Finally, the prince fell and hanged himself in the palace. The original owner was in great pain and wanted to assassinate Xiao Quan, but was finally killed by thousands of arrows piercing his heart.
After understanding the plot, Lin Shen couldn't help but sigh that this was really the beginning of hell.
He now felt like he was freezing to death and starving to death, let alone the subsequent plot.
Just then, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Lin Shen looked towards the door vigilantly.
An old man in a ragged robe walked in. His face was full of wrinkles and his eyes revealed a trace of fatigue. He walked in front of Lin Shen with a bowl of steaming porridge in his hand. "Your Highness, have some porridge." The old man said softly and handed the bowl to Lin Shen.
Lin Shen hesitated for a moment and took the bowl.
He knew that there was medicine in the bowl. In order to prevent the original owner from being unwilling to go to Yu State to be prepared as a hostage, he wanted to knock the original owner unconscious and send him directly to Yu State.
The temperature of the porridge was transferred to his hands, bringing a rare sense of warmth.
He looked at the old man with false gratitude and sipped the porridge. "Thank you..." Lin Shen's voice was a little hoarse.
The old man's smile paused, and the boy's pretty and delicate face showed full trust in him.
Not daring to look at his own prince's face, "Your Highness, you are welcome. This is what this old servant should do."
"I'm tired." As he said this, Lin Shen felt exhausted and slowly closed his eyes.
The old man looked at the boy's face. The boy was so beautiful and delicate that it made people lose their minds, but he lived in this cold place. He turned his head away, not daring to look at the boy again, for fear that he would be too soft-hearted.
He only left a few words, "I wish your highness a safe journey."
