Yan Mujin returned to the palace where he had lived for three years, and Gao Xu followed him in.

Over the past three years, the two have been together day and night and have already become the most familiar people.

Gao Xu has always been taciturn. Looking at Yan Mujin packing up his things, he didn't know how to start for a moment.

His lips trembled for a long while before he opened them slightly: "Mu Jin, I don't know when we will meet next time."

As Yan Mujin packed his things, he turned back to look at Gao Xu and said, "How about you go and tell Sister Yan that you want to go back to Yan State with me?"

“…” Gao Xu didn’t say anything.

He paused, "Sister said, I have my own way to go."

Yan Mujin suddenly stopped and looked at Gao Xu seriously: "Ah Xu, do you really know what path your sister wants you to take?"

Gao Xu met Yan Mujin's eyes and felt that these eyes, which were always bright and shining, had become a little sharper.

"I know." Gao Xu nodded.

"Then will you take the path that your sister wants you to take?" Yan Mujin said this with a bit of momentum around him.

Without waiting for Gao Xu to reply, Yan Mujin slowly turned around and said, "Ah Xu, I hope we can always be friends. I also hope that one day, no matter if we are from Daxuan, Yan, or Gao, we can all be friends."

Gao Xu paused for a long time: "I hope so too."

Yan Mujin continued to pack his things: "I know you are very conflicted. You are a prince of Gao State, and most of Gao State's territory is occupied by Yan State, but you must know that this road was brought upon Gao State by itself.

"If Gao and Beimang hadn't joined forces to invade Daxuan and steal the Bo family's property, Gao wouldn't have lost half of its territory. Gao Xu, as a prince of Gao, you must think clearly. If you were to lead the future of Gao, how would you go about it..."

Yan Mujin packed up his things, hung them on his back and tied a knot.

Gao Xu lowered his head and said nothing.

Yan Mujin smiled faintly: "I know you are reluctant to leave Sister Yan, because she is sincere and teaches you everything. If you continue to stay with her, you will be able to learn more."

Yan Mujin stood in front of Gao Xu and looked into his eyes. "But I hope that one day, you won't let Sister Yan down. Otherwise, I will definitely stand against you..."

Gao Xu opened his lips and said in a hoarse voice: "No."

"Also, I want to remind you that when Sister Yan taught you martial arts, she also knew that one day, you might make any choice."

"You think too much, Mu Jin. Sister Yan has been so kind to me, I will never repay her with evil."

Yan Mujin patted Gao Xu's shoulder and said, "I believe you. I apologize for what I said today, as it may have been a bit harsh..."

"No, only a true friend would say such a thing."

Gao Xu knew Yan Mujin, and he wouldn't have said these things if he hadn't met that person.

Yan Mujin said this to persuade him not to go astray.

"I hope we can always be friends." Yan Mujin took off the jade pendant he was wearing and put it into Gao Xu's hand. "Take care!"

After he finished speaking, he strode away.

Gao Xu stared at the jade pendant in his hand for a long time. He understood that Yan Mujin hoped that their friendship would be as hard as jade and last forever.

Someone from Gao State came to see him, and Yan Mujin knew about it.

Does your sister know?

On the other side, Si Yan was continuing to instruct the Marquis of Wu's son Qi Junye and the Marquis of Han's son Qi Yaohua in martial arts.

After the practice, both of them were sweating profusely.

Si Yan asked the two to stop: "Okay, go take a break, read a book and relax your body."

Qi Junye hesitated for a moment and stayed: "Prince Regent, are you so sincere to everyone? Including your enemies?"

Si Yan raised his eyes and looked at Qi Junye: "I don't have any enemies here."

"I...amn't I your enemy? I once tried to assassinate you."

Qi Junye really couldn't understand why Si Yan was so sincere to him, a person with "bad intentions"?

Is she stupid? Or what?

But can such a stupid person really become the regent queen of Daxuan and make all the people of Daxuan submit to her?

Si Yan's expression was indifferent: "You didn't assassinate me, but the evil witch who you thought was a disaster to the country. When you knew that I was not an evil witch who was a disaster to the country, your idea of ​​assassinating me disappeared."

"How do you know?" Qi Junye looked at Si Yan strangely. "How do you know that the idea of ​​assassinating you has disappeared, rather than waiting until I become stronger and then assassinate you again?"

"I've given you many chances. If you had kept trying to assassinate me, you wouldn't be standing here today."

Si Yan looked at the extremely sharp sword in Qi Junye's hand and smiled, "Even now, you still have a chance."

"I don't have a chance anymore." Qi Junye shook his head and suddenly knelt on one knee. "Qi Junye is willing to serve the Regent for the rest of his life."

Si Yan walked over and helped Qi Junye up: "Not to serve me, but to serve Daxuan, to serve His Majesty."

Qi Junye nodded seriously and looked up at Si Yan: "Regent, that Qi Xiuran has bad intentions. I can see it."

Si Yan leaned close to his ear and said, "I can see that too."

Qi Junye: ...

He understood that if he wanted to capture it, he had to let it go first.

The Regent is indeed not so gentle to everyone, and he will never teach his enemies martial arts, including the hostage from the Gao Kingdom. The Regent has his own plans.

"I am superficial." Qi Junye smiled bitterly and admired the woman in front of him even more.

"No, our new King Wu will definitely become the best King Wu in the history of Daxuan in terms of both military prowess and administration."

"What does the Regent mean?" Qi Junye couldn't help but widen his eyes. The new King of Martial Arts?

Si Yan smiled and said, "In the future, you will be the new Martial King of Daxuan."

"I?"

"Yes, you are my newly trained Martial King. Daxuan and Beimang Kingdom are about to go to war. The rear must be stable. When necessary, the Martial King's support is needed."

"But I...my father..." Qi Junye was speechless when he heard the news.

"Your father is old, it's time for him to give up his throne to you."

Qi Junye's eyes were filled with surprise. This was more than just giving up the throne? The Regent also restored their family's status as King Wu?

He thought that he would be held hostage in Shangjing for the rest of his life, but he didn't expect that the Regent would not only release him, but also make him the new King of Wu.

It is really admirable that the Regent has such a broad mind.

Si Yan chuckled: "Have you noticed that in addition to teaching you martial arts over the years, I have also taught you how to govern the country?"

Qi Junye nodded. He had discovered that each of them learned something different.

Like Yan Mujin, what he learned was military strategy and tactics, but what he learned more was how to govern the people.

However, he was sure that the Regent cared deeply about each of them.

Si Yan looked at Qi Junye and said, "I hope that many years from now, the granaries in King Wu's fiefdom will be full and the people will be prosperous. By then, the entire Daxuan will be like King Wu's fiefdom."

"Regent... wuwuwu..." Qi Junye didn't expect him to cry, and his tears fell uncontrollably.

This was exactly what he had always wished for, but he never expected that he would have the chance to realize it.
