The daughter of the emperor is beautiful and holds the power over the world

Chapter 42 Ah Yan said that day, You Zhang said to me

Everyone couldn't help but look over. The thousand-year-old ginseng they had been searching for was actually dug up by two teenagers?

Yan Longyi had seen the Thousand-Year Ginseng King. At that time, his father was seriously ill and on the verge of death. It was his aunt who brought a Thousand-Year Ginseng King and extended his father's life for half a year.

This ginseng was strong and plump, even better than the one he had seen that year. Not only was it tall and slender, with a complete head, hands and limbs, but it also had a nose and eyes on its face. At first glance, it looked like a vivid old man with a white beard.

Si Yan looked at the young man with a gentle expression and said softly, "Stand up and talk."

"Yes, benefactor."

The boy stood up obediently, and the boys behind him also stood up.

"What's your name?"

The boy has a thin body and wheat-colored skin. The group of boys behind him obviously regard him as their big brother, which is enough to show that he has strong leadership and appeal.

"My name is Aceh," the young man said respectfully.

"Why are you here?"

"We are orphans without parents. We had nowhere to go because of the war at the border, so we hid in these deep mountains and forests. This time, we came here to dig ginseng, and we happened to dig up these two thousand-year-old ginsengs."

Yan Longyi looked at the boy gently and asked, "Where did you dig these two ginseng plants?"

"It was dug on the slope on the other side of the mountain, passing through this line of sky." The young man pointed ahead and replied sincerely.

"A narrow passage is such a dangerous place, can you make it through?"

"Only Ah Zhe and I could go through. The rest of my brothers and sisters were waiting for us here. We didn't expect to be attacked by wolves as soon as we got back."

"It's very dangerous over there. We almost fell off the cliff." The young man named Azhe couldn't help but say.

Yan Longyi turned around and looked at Si Yan with a gentle expression: "Ah Yan, the place he mentioned is the place we are going to."

Yan Longyi looked at the two teenagers again. Even people who knew martial arts would not dare to go to that place. He did not expect that the two children would risk their lives to go there.

Si Yan could see that the boy was determined and a man with his own ideas, so he couldn't help but ask, "What are your plans for the future?"

The young man named A Ce was silent for a while, but shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet. The world is not good now. I just want to have food to eat and survive with my brothers and sisters."

"Where are you from?"

"We originally lived in Beiyan Pass. A few years ago, after Beiyan Pass was occupied by the enemy, they massacred the entire city. Our parents were killed by the enemy, and we have been wandering around begging. Two months ago, the Beimang Nationalist Army attacked again, and we hid in the mountains."

Everyone couldn't help but gasp. It turned out that these children were orphans who survived the massacre at Beiyan Pass.

The massacre of Beiyan Pass happened four years ago, and they were much smaller at that time than they are now.

One can imagine how difficult it was for them to survive.

Si Yan looked at the children and said calmly: "Beiyan Pass has been reclaimed now, you can go back."

The boy named A Ce didn't say anything, so A Zhe couldn't help but say, "We don't want to go back. That place is our nightmare..."

When the children behind him heard the name Beiyan Pass, their eyes became dull and they were terrified.

"Then are you willing to go to Beijing with me?" Si Yan asked.

The young man's eyes widened: "Going to the capital?"

"Yes, the capital of Daxuan, Shangjing City." Si Yan smiled slightly, his eyes full of friendliness.

The young man thumped down again and knelt down. "Thank you for not abandoning me, benefactor. I am willing to take my brothers and sisters with me to follow you and be loyal to you in return for saving my life."

The boy's back was straight, and he was clearly still a child who had not grown up, but the tone of his voice was so mature that it made people feel distressed.

"Just call me sister." Si Yan said with a smile.

"Sister, please accept my humble greeting." The young man fell to the ground and kowtowed three times to Si Yan.

The teenagers behind him quickly followed his orders, while the other younger children were a little dazed. Could they leave this place full of man-eating beasts?

"Okay, get up." Si Yan helped the boy up and patted his shoulder. "My name is Si Yan. From now on, you will be called Sice."

"Sister." The boy had tears in his eyes. His sister gave him a surname, which showed that she respected him.

"Sister, what about me? Can I call you Si Zhe?" Azhe beside her scratched her hair and asked embarrassedly.

"Of course, your name will be Si Zhe from now on."

"Thank you, sister." The boy immediately cheered and everyone was infected by him and their mood improved.

Everyone could see that these children really wanted to follow their young lady.

They are wandering in these deep mountains and forests, in danger of being eaten by wild beasts at any time. Who wouldn't be happy if they could leave here?

It was late at night, and the children, frightened and extremely tired today, gradually fell asleep.

Yun Li and Si Rong were patrolling around. Yun Qiao added firewood to the campfire and sprinkled some snake and insect repellent potion everywhere. Then he left the campfire and found a tree to lean against and rest.

The rest of the guards each guarded a place and took turns to rest at night.

Beside the dim campfire, only Si Yan and Yan Longyi were left, sitting side by side.

"Ayan, do you really want to take them in?" Yan Longyi glanced at the sleeping children and spoke softly.

"Yes." Si Yan nodded gently, his calm voice carrying an innate decisiveness.

Yan Longyi smiled slightly: "This child named A Ce is smart, clever, strong and brave. He will definitely have a bright future."

"The future of Daxuan really needs a batch of fresh blood."

Yan Longyi turned to look at the woman beside him: "Ayan plans to train them all to become generals?"

"Not necessarily." Si Yan smiled. "I want them to be flowers and trees. Every child has his or her own personality and talents. I will provide them with the conditions that suit them. As for how far they can go, it depends on themselves."

Since the Daxuan court has been corrupted, Si Yan decided to gradually revitalize the court.

They are still twelve or thirteen years old now, but what about five years later, ten years later?

No great cause can be accomplished overnight. It must be achieved step by step and with solid work.

"Ayan's thinking is really hard for ordinary people to guess." Yan Longyi looked deeply at the woman in front of him, his heart full of excitement.

There has never been a woman who could move his heart so deeply.

Si Yan turned around and looked at Yan Longyi: "Is King Yan an ordinary person?"

Yan Longyi was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Of course not."

The man's eyes were full of doting, and when their eyes met, they seemed to have returned to the first time they met on the battlefield.

This time, neither of them looked away.

Yan Longyi tilted his head slightly, his handsome face like a painting, his eyes full of tenderness, his thin lips slightly parted: "Ayan, that day you said, wait for the Yan army to return victorious, wait for me to come back, and tell me something..."

The breeze gently brushes across my cheeks. The cold night is chilly, but it makes people full of anticipation.

Yan Longyi looked at Si Yan with burning eyes. Si Yan replied softly, "I did say I have something to tell you."

"What are you talking about?" Yan Longyi looked at the woman in front of him eagerly, his heart seemed to be about to jump out of his throat.
