The Lord Father Yan was not too slow. "That depends on whether Your Majesty is satisfied with hunting chickens and rabbits, or fighting for lions and tigers."

The emperor pondered for a moment and looked at Master Yan again.

Master Yan said, "If you hunt chickens and rabbits, the hunting dogs are enough. It is useless to use a wild warrior like Liang Xiao, and it will cause chaos. It is better to get rid of it. If you fight for a lion and tiger, the hunting dogs have no real use except barking. You also need a beast like Liang Xiao to succeed."

"But, the wildness has not been eliminated, aren't you afraid that he will backfire?"

"Your Majesty, Huangdi drove the tiger, leopard, bear, and flew, fought with Emperor Yan in Banquan, and defeated him in one battle. Therefore, only the saint king could use people. Han Xin was invincible in the battle and defeated him in every battle. Emperor Gao used it to determine the Three Qins, destroy Xiang Yu, and conquer the world. Your Majesty was extremely talented, and he took the reign of the three generations of tyrants to ascend the throne with his weak title, drove the Xiongnu, and determined the two Yues, took Henan, and seized the Western Regions, and had the achievements of the emperor far exceeding the high-level emperor. With the achievements of Qin Shihuang, but without the losses of Qin Shihuang, he was truly a saint of five hundred years. Who is Liang Xiao? At best, he is just a person like Peng Yue. Why do you think about it?"

The emperor let out a sigh of relief and his face calmed down. He smiled. "The Lord, the father, is too proud. How dare I compete with the emperor? I have not humiliated my ancestors to comfort my whole life. I dare not have too high hopes."

"Does Your Majesty still remember the shame of Empress Gao?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and realized the meaning of Master Yan. Although the Huns were driven north of Yinshan, the Shanyu was not captured, and the Huns' troubles had not been completely solved. Although except for Liang Xiao, the older generation had Li Guang, Cheng Wuzhi, and the younger generation had Cao Shi and Wei Qing, no one could match Liang Xiao in terms of his vision. In this matter, the only person who could truly understand and support him was Liang Xiao.

This Western Expedition was already hard work. If it were not for Liang Xiao's assistance, adjusting the ratio of troops and relying on each other, it would be difficult for both Cao Shi and Li Guang to achieve such a clear advantage. Once the war is stalemate, the outcome will be unpredictable. It is indeed not appropriate to deal with Liang Xiao at this time.

Besides, Liang Xiao had no intention of rebelling, he was just unwilling to be at the mercy of others. From another perspective, if Liang Xiao was a person who obeyed, how could he have made such great achievements? He could stay in Huainan, he could also stay in Dayuan, he could pretend to be deaf and enjoy wealth, he could also keep silent, and silence was gold. He could even report Dou Ying like Liu De, not seeking merit, but only seeking no mistakes.

"I dare not forget it for a moment."

"Since this is the case, the Shanyu has not been captured, Your Majesty should not break his own hands and feet. As the saying goes, it is easy to get a thousand troops, but it is difficult to find a general. It is not easy to get a sharp minion like Liang Xiao." The master Yan hesitated for a moment and said again: "It is difficult to kill Liang Xiaoyi and hurt the hearts of the soldiers. Will Your Majesty hope that a young man like Huo Qubing will abandon martial arts and follow his articles from now on and devote himself to studying?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows, remembering what Liang Xiao said to Huo Qubing before leaving the palace, and woke up in shock. "Where is Huo Qubing? I haven't seen him for many days."

"Why don't you go and see it?"

The emperor looked at the Lord's Father Yan, and was uneasy, so he quickly got up and left the hall. Huo Qubing lived in His Highness's house, but most of the time he was by the emperor and did not live in the house. The emperor hadn't seen Huo Qubing in the past two days, and he thought of the house at the first time.

When he walked down the hall, turned around and came to the house, he saw Huo Qubing sitting on his bed, with the bamboo bow given by Liang Xiao on the left, and the hard bow given by the emperor on the right, but he just hugged his legs, his chin on his knees, and his eyes were staring out of the door without moving. His hair was a little messy and his face was very dirty, as if he hadn't washed his face for two days. Seeing the emperor, he didn't react and was still sitting quietly.

When the emperor saw this, he felt very distressed. He stopped the master Yan who was about to wake Huo Qubing, walked to Huo Qubing, squatted down, reached out to lift the strand of hair that was draped on his forehead, and said softly: "What's wrong with you?"

"I..." Huo Qubing slowly turned his head and looked at the emperor with a little confused look. After a while, he suddenly reacted and quickly turned over and bowed, and kowtowed repeatedly. "I deserve to die for ten thousand times, and I deserve to die for ten thousand times..."

The corners of the emperor's eyes twitched. Huo Qubing was by his side for many years, but he had never seen Huo Qubing so scared. He was originally a fearless little leopard, but now he has become a frightened puppy. Before he touched him, he was so scared that he screamed.

Is this a famous general whom he has high hopes for? This is the result of his hope? Liang Xiao was afraid and was determined to go. Huo Qubing was also afraid, and he shivered as soon as he touched him. Such a person could still fight in the future, defeat the enemy, and still win with less and run for thousands of miles?

The emperor's legs became weak and he sat on the ground, feeling lost.

The Lord Father Yan stood behind the emperor and quietly breathed a sigh of relief. The heart that had been hanging in his throat could finally be put back to its original position.

Yuzhang, Penglize Wharf.

Liu Ling held Liang Mama's arm and got on the stairs together. Li Rongqing and others followed, and maids and servants got on board one after another, and under the guidance of the soldiers, they entered the arranged cabin.

Mama Liang looked at the manor in the distance reluctantly and sighed. "It's a good place to live, and I'm really reluctant to leave. Master Weng, you should go to Yizhou with us. No matter the place is good or bad, it's always good for the family to get together."

Liu Ling smiled and said, "Mother, don't worry, it won't take long to go, my husband and I will come. Yizhou is more difficult, but Wu is taken care of by Master Huan, and I don't think there will be any problems. I will arrange for a merchant ship to send your things over as soon as possible, so you can live there with peace of mind."

"I'm not worried about myself, I haven't lived any hard life." Mama Liang shook her head regretfully. "The emperor also seems to be a reasonable person, why is he so unreasonable suddenly? It seems that people really cannot be without awe. Xiao'er said it wrong, and this destiny should still be believed."

Liu Ling smiled without saying a word, sent Mama Liang into the cabin, and then took Li Rongqing's hand and said, "Sister Rongqing, I will hand it over to you, and the child will be given to you. From now on, no matter whose child it is, you will be disciplined as your own child. You should beat and scold what you should scold, and you should not be too pampered. If a kind mother fails her son, you must be as lenient and strict as her mother teaches her husband. Whether the Liang family can produce a few talents in the future depends on you."

Li Rongqing blushed. "Master Weng, how can I bear such an important task?"

"Don't be afraid, if you don't understand anything, just ask my mother."

Li Rongqing had no choice but to nod and agreed.

Liu Ling called the children to him and told them sternly that from then on, he would listen to his eldest mother (grandmother) and his aunt, and would not be willing to play, nor would he act recklessly. He should study hard, practice martial arts diligently, and be a real talent in the future.

The children half-understand or not, and the sound of the brittle sound responded.

Liu Ling pulled Xiao Ping'an to her side again and touched her head. "Pingan, you are the eldest sister, you must take good care of your younger brother and sister, do you know?"

Xiao Ping'an nodded vigorously. "Mother, don't worry, I will. As long as I am here, no one can bully my brothers."

"Good boy, your Aweng and Amu did not love you in vain."

Liu Ling was placed properly and bid farewell to Liang Mai and others. Then he got off the boat. The boat set sail and gradually left the dock, carrying dozens of people from Liang Xiao and his elders and young, sailing northward. After entering the Yangtze River, the boat would go down the river, go straight into the sea, and head to Yizhou.

Seeing the tower boat disappear between Tianshui, Liu Ling got on the car and rushed back to the Lushan Villa.

Half of the students of Bailu Academy followed him to Yizhou, and they were no longer as lively as before, and seemed a little deserted. Liu Ling got off the bus in front of the academy and stood under the plaque, without saying a word for a long time.

Liang Yu walked out and met Liu Ling. "Master Weng, when will we set off?"

"No hurry, wait a little longer."

"Brother is in danger now. If you wait any longer, maybe..."

"Don't worry, no." Liu Ling held Liang Yu's hand and forced a smile. "Although the matter happened suddenly, your brother has been planning this matter for a day or two. He is the best at dealing with these emergencies. Even if it is difficult to be thorough, he will not make a big mistake. It is difficult for us to rush over at this time, but it is not easy to say. Why not wait and see what the emperor reacts."

Liang Yu nodded, his concern remained unabashed. "I should have sent me to the palace at the beginning, at least I wouldn't be caught off guard."

"The palace is not an ordinary family. Your brother often said that once you enter the palace gate as deep as the sea, he would not be willing to let you suffer, so he was not determined. Now it seems that he is right, otherwise, you are not in Beigong and in Yeting Prison, so there is no chance to convey the message."

Liang Yu sighed softly. She had been in the Jiangdu Royal Palace for several years, but how could she not know the dangers in the palace? It is precisely because of this that she was even more grateful to Liang Xiao and his wife. Because they couldn't bear to push her into the fire pit, they would rather take risks.

Liang Xiao walked back and forth in the yard with his hands behind his back. He was wearing a battle robe, but he did not wear armor. The armor made of steel was placed aside, with two long and short battle knives, black bows and arrows, and special steel halberds all placed aside and were ready to be used at any time. Once the alarm occurred, he could quickly wear armor with the help of Beta and others and enter the battle state.

The same is true for the knights in the mansion. People do not disarm their armor and horses do not disarm their saddles, so they are highly vigilant.

The guards on the corner tower heard an alarm. There were people and horses coming out from Weiyang Palace, about ten horses, wearing regular clothes, but they were clearly dressed and handsome, and they should be the Qimenlang.

Liang Xiao smiled. He knew who was coming, but this method was somewhat beyond his expectations. He waved his hand and signaled Tu Niuer and others to dress up. Yueliang rushed over and personally put on armor, hung a sword, and carried a arrow on his back.

At this time, a notice came from the front yard. "Horse Pingyang is here to see you."

Liang Xiao waved his hand and rushed to the front yard with Tu Niuer and others. The gate was closed, and Pang Shuo stood behind the door with an iron knife, ready to fight at any time. Liang Xiao walked outside the door and said loudly: "Mr. Cao Jun. When did you come back? Was the battle going smoothly? Sorry, I was unable to go out of the city to greet you. I was rude and rude. However, my situation is special now, I am afraid I can't open the door to see you, so please forgive me."

There was silence outside the door. After a moment, the emperor's voice came. "Open the door! If you don't open the door, don't blame me for kicking your door."

Liang Xiao laughed secretly, but pretended to be surprised. "You are... Your Majesty?" While saying that, he signaled Pang Shuo to remove the door, pull a gap in the door, and look at it.

The emperor stood outside the door with his hands behind his back, laughing and crying.

Liang Xiao quickly opened the door and rushed over. Halfway through, he retreated, and rushed to untied the bow arrow on his back and the sword on his waist. Seeing this, the emperor stepped forward and held his hand. "Okay, don't untied it, this is great. Although Yu Li is not in harmony, he is still bold."

"Oh." Liang Xiao laughed embarrassedly. "That... Your Majesty, why are you here? I thought..."

"Who do you think you are, a lobbyist?" The emperor glanced at Liang Xiao while walking in. "Besides me coming in person, can anyone else touch you?"

"How can you? As long as your Majesty gives you a letter of pardon, I will come to the palace to apologize. That... Your Majesty, I am so scared that day. You are rude. Please forgive me."

"You know you are rude." The emperor felt even more relaxed. He originally thought Liang Xiao would refuse to give in, but now it seems that he was over-thinking. Just as the Lord's Father Yan said, Liang Xiao was only afraid of his behavior and had no intention of offending. He slowly walked into the vestige and into the atrium. He saw the fully armed and murderous soldiers, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy, but he refused to show any timidity on his face.

Liang Xiao walked while ordering the armored soldiers to retreat, and at the same time he did not forget to apologize. When the emperor heard this, he felt relieved and nervous, and suddenly felt a sense of heroism. He rode alone into the enemy camp and surrendered to thousands of troops. He came to the hall to sit down. Liang Xiao stood aside, untied his armor, and then knelt down. The emperor glanced at him, suddenly remembered an allusion, his heart moved, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "You are not as good as Zhou Yafu in this regard."

"What?" Liang Xiao looked confused.

"When Emperor Xiaowen entered Xiliu camp, Zhou Yafu saw the horse with military court and refused to disarm his armor. He was praised by Emperor Xiaowen as a true general. You disarm your armor and disarm it too hasty."

Liang Xiao blinked. "Has the Huns approached Chang'an?"

The emperor burst into laughter. Of course he knew that Liang Xiao was talking nonsense on purpose, but Liang Xiao's performance made him vaguely find the feeling of meeting him at the beginning. There were no monarch and ministers, only friends, from all over the world, and no scruples. He thought for a while: "If the Huns really approached Chang'an, would you go to war?"

Liang Xiao pondered for a moment. "If I really got to that point, it would be useless even if I was willing to fight. I must first settle the internal affairs when fighting foreign countries. I would rather find out the worms that had eaten up the foundation of the great man, kill them one by one, and then go out of the city to fight to the death with the Huns."

The emperor thought for a long time and asked again: "What if I made a mistake?"

Liang Xiao's eyebrows slightly raised. "Does Your Majesty want to hear the truth?"

The emperor felt nervous, but he refused to show weakness, and laughed disdainfully: "Are you willing to tell lies?"

"I refuse." Liang Xiao touched his nose. "If your Majesty really made a mistake, even if I am not strong enough, I will learn from Yi Yin and not Li Si."

The emperor was silent for a long time, turned around and said to the master Yan, "This is another Ji An."

The Lord's father Yan smiled, gave Liang Xiao a wink without hesitation, turned around and walked to the emperor, knelt down on the ground, bowed to salute. "Congratulations to Your Majesty, you have another minister of the country. With these two ministers in the court, Your Majesty will be sages inside and outside, and your achievements will be expected."—
