The Protagonist’s Halo - Chapter 117

Han Yu rushed to report the letter, hoping to find people from Xiaoshan City to help him.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Han immediately brought a white horse, and when he leaped on the horse’s back, he disappeared in the blink of an eye, and he couldn’t catch up on horseback.

Later, when Han Yu chased halfway down the road, he saw the steed that was thrown in the forest by Xiao Han. I thought it was too slow to ride. When Han Yu followed Elder Han on a mission, he had also seen the so-called martial art of people flying over the walls, but it seemed that Xiao Han is not as good as Xiao Han, but fortunately she never compares this to him.

Han Yu could not think about this, worrying about the safety of Madam Xiao’s life, and Xiao Han rushed over by himself, so he could only catch up with him even more quickly with his whip.

On the plains, a fight was being carried out. The guards holding swords desperately prevented the masked enemy from getting close to the car behind them, but they were helplessly defeated by the cruel, cruel, and crowded opponents. The masked killers wanted to create a scene where the convoy was looted and killed, especially the important target in the car, Mrs. Xiao.

When the guard closest to the car was attacked and killed by several people, several knives were hit in the chest, and the blood finally fell down, the person in the car was arrested, and it was confirmed that Mrs. Xiao killed him.

Just as one of the hands was about to grab Madam Xiao’s arm in the car, a knife suddenly came out.

“Let go of her.” The voice of the girl who was still in the year of cardamom was very clean and clear, but it sounded somewhat intimidating.

The masked man realized that all his companions had died, and he just reacted to raise a knife.

At the same moment, the knife that Xiao Han snatched from his hand slid into his chest lightly and skillfully.

The movement here immediately attracted other masked enemies.

Seeing that Xiao Han was about to be besieged and killed, Fang was still alive and dead, and the pale Madam Xiao couldn’t help shouting, “Lingyue, be careful.”

But this was indeed a fight, and it didn’t even last long. In less than a quarter of an hour, more than 30 masked enemies were all beheaded.

Madam Xiao’s temples were slightly chaotic, and her face was pale. She was helped out. She saw the guards and entourage she had brought **** battles to protect her life. There were very few left, and the corpses were all over the place.

She suppressed the grief in her heart and took a deep breath.

Similarly, she was shocked by Xiao Han fighting with dozens of enemies alone.

This jade doll, who was still beautiful when she first saw her, has grown into a luxuriant tree that can stand upright as Han Ling said, giving people a sense of peace of mind.

With Xiao Han, naturally there is no need to worry about any danger anymore. The horses and carts are all destroyed. Only when Han Yu brings people over, she can leave. Mrs. Xiao also does not forget to bring back the corpses of all the guards who died in battle for a thick burial, as well as compassionate them Family.

…

What happened afterwards, Xiao Han would not know. It was nothing more than a problem with the situation in South Vietnam.

Xiao Han was considering whether to stay in South Vietnam for a while to ensure the safety of Mrs. Xiao. Taking advantage of Nanyue’s current insecurity, she left. After all, this kind of internal struggle for power in Nanyue has nothing to do with her.

And the idea of ​​leaving, has been in the morning.

Xiao Han had no intention of confining himself to one place, whether it was Princess Daxia Mansion or Xiaoshan Mountain City.

She is now thirteen years old and is already a half-aged adult according to this era. In terms of martial arts, even if it is the danger of thousands of troops, she has the power to get away. There are no mission wishes in this world, and she doesn’t let her go everywhere.

Xiao Han thought very well, but the plan was far behind the changes in the situation.

She underestimated the abilities of Elder Han and Madam Xiao, and even more underestimated the extent to which the current monarch of South Vietnam and the gang of civil strife forces were killed.

When Elder Han was young, I heard that he was a handsome, brave and ardent young man. According to his merit and background, he entered the court early. After participating in the political affairs, he acted very aggressively, which is equivalent to the hawks in the Nanyue court. The scars were once left to save the driver. After more scars, except for the more calm and serious temperament, his style remained unchanged. In addition to his achievements, he has many followers in South Vietnam.

Elder Han did not like the incompetence and weakness of the current monarch. Even if he hadn’t said it, Xiao Han could tell from his past attitude.

It’s just that Xiao Han didn’t expect that he was so tough that he took advantage of the civil strife to directly seize power, making the monarch who disappointed him a real decoration, lingering sickbed, and unable to move. Putting it in Daxia and trying to usurp the throne was almost the same, but in Nanyue, it was easily accepted.

Even the young Han Yu didn’t think there was anything wrong.

Probably the elder Han did not really take the title of the South Vietnamese monarch, but only controlled the power of the court. The South Vietnam Kingdom is the three-legged power, military power, and elders. It is not surprising when the latter two powers grow stronger and treat the royal power as a mascot to display respect.

Xiao Han also sighed with emotion. She has no sympathy for the hapless South Vietnamese monarch. The assassination of Mrs. Xiao is also inseparable from him. Mediocre and incompetent is true, and she will indulge others after being tempted by others. Shi Wei turned into a tortoise when he came to the door to settle the accounts.

It is a pity that Elder Han dislikes the cowardly people who dare not take responsibility. If there is still a trace of respect for the king’s power, I am afraid that he will even kill the king.

Xiao Han heard that Han Yu reported that Elder Han heard that Mrs. Xiao was assassinated, even if she was safe and violent, she went to the palace that day, and I don’t know how long it was to denounce him. The next day, the monarch fell ill and said yes. To recuperate.

When Han Yu recalled the way his teacher severely reprimanded him on weekdays, he had lingering fears.

Xiao Han felt the same way, that the psychological endurance of the South Vietnamese monarch might not have been as long as Han Yugao, who had been with a sword and a sword.

Han Yu also whispered to her, “Fortunately, Mrs. Xiao is fine, otherwise more people may die.”

Xiao Han raised his eyebrows slightly, and then Han Yu was like telling her something shocking and secretive, “Lingyue, don’t you know, in fact, when the teacher and Madam Xiao were young, they even talked about marriage.”

In Han Yu’s narrative, Elder Han and Madam Xiao were originally a pair of lovers. However, Elder Han was injured in a war and left a deep scar on his face. He thought that he was not good enough for Madam Xiao, so he couldn’t. After that, Mrs. Xiao later married the head of the Gao family. She had a deep affection. The head of the Gao family died young, and Mrs. Xiao became a widow, but she always missed her dead husband and never remarried. Elder Han waited silently. I did not marry a wife and have children in the same year, and the political power of the family’s foundation in the future could only be left to his own students, all because of Mrs. Xiao.

Xiao Han showed a subtle smile, “Where did you hear it.”

Han Yu said honestly, “The storyteller in the teahouse.”

No wonder it’s such a nonsense, Xiao Han continued to smile and said, “Don’t go anymore, and study hard.”

During the civil strife in South Vietnam, Elder Han didn’t have time to pay attention to the bear child. When he recovered, if he was caught, Xiao Han could only help him.

I thought that the civil strife in Nanyue, the struggle for power, or the earth-shaking changes of the sun and the moon, had nothing to do with her, but within a few days, Xiao Han was told that she might become the crown prince, “…”

————

Since this journey, Xiao Han wondered how many times he had doubted his life, but he was not surprised anymore, and was thundered by the news. Did a country’s prince choose it randomly?

It’s really so casual. There are two premises. One is that the Nanyue monarchs of this generation have no heirs so far, and they don’t know whether it is for physical reasons or what, even if they have taken many concubines, they have not given birth. The second is the power change in South Vietnam that was directly caused by the civil unrest. The power of the king is weak, and the military power and the elders are above them.

The military power is directly held in the hands of Han Ling, and the elders group consists of three quarters of the Han family, the Xiao family, and the Gao family.

Elder Han proposed to appoint the crown prince, corresponding to the situation of the lingering illness of the South Vietnamese monarch. The name of this crown prince is almost equivalent to the future King of South Vietnam.

And Xiao Han is the most ideal and suitable candidate for the crown prince.

First of all, she is a student of Elder Han, and secondly, the Xiao family is her mother family. The Gao family and the Xiao family have been in the same spirit for many years, and there is no reason for them to disagree. As for the four major families in this civil strife, she was almost kicked out. The Shang clan has no sense of existence and no right to speak.

Elder Han’s attitude was quite stubborn. He named his student, Xiao Lingyue, the heir of the Xiao family, and even had no alternate candidates.

Let your students become crown princes.

No one dared to say anything, even if it was blatant selfishness. As the vested interests of the Xiao family and the Gao family, they would not object. Followers who respected Elder Han had no objection to his orders, but were shocked by the power of Elder Han. The South Vietnamese officials have nothing to say.

On the contrary, Mrs. Xiao hesitated. Unlike Elder Han, who is hawkish, she is biased towards doves. Therefore, when the civil strife happened, she also tried her best to mediate and did not want to cause innocent casualties. However, others thought that she had a serious personal relationship with Elder Han. Fame is too influential, but first hit her. Madam Xiao is no longer soft-hearted. Elder Han can seize power so smoothly, and the Xiao family and the Gao family are also helping.

But she did not expect that the crown prince would fall to her adopted daughter. The Xiao family had a marriage with the royal family, and there is a fair sense in terms of inheritance.

But Mrs. Xiao still hopes that Xiao Lingyue can do what she likes. Over the years, she has taught her all her talents and abilities, and devoted herself to cultivating Lingyue, but it is not with the idea of ​​repaying her. He truly regards Ling Yue as his heir.

If you don’t improve the family, she is going to entrust the family business of the Xiao family to Ling Yue, and no one of the family elders has any objections.

Nanyue values ​​the inheritance of blood, but once he bears his surname, he is completely regarded as a member of his own family.

If there is prejudice and discrimination instead of tolerance, the Nanyue regime will not last for hundreds of years, and it will continue to this day. So when this child started with the Xiao surname, she was a member of the Nanyue Xiao family.

Mrs. Xiao knew that both the Xiao family and the Gao family wanted her to choose an heir, and did not even care that she remarried and had children, but she had her own arrogance and did not need to fulfill her responsibilities to the family in this way. She recognized Xinzhong’s heir, and she also believed that Xiao Clan would only be better when it was handed over to Ling Yue, and would never decline and break the inheritance.

This was what she had originally thought, but it was disrupted by the Nanyue civil strife and the sudden proposal of Elder Han.

…

Madam Xiao didn’t know why Elder Han was so persistent, maybe this had his deep meaning. She has known Han Ling for many years, has seen his youthful ambition, passion and impulsiveness, wanting to make Nan Yue better, and also seen the coldness and determination of others in middle age, calmness and determination, and no concession to the monarch or the officials. But in fact, Han Ling’s ambitions and goals have never changed. He is loyal to South Vietnam, he is loyal to this country, not to the royal family. He has been full of expectations for two generations of monarchs, but they have let Han Ling down again and again.

This time he seized power, even without her and Xiao’s Gao’s help, he would still do it, but more people would die.

So even if she didn’t understand why Han Ling chose Lingyue, she couldn’t stop him from meeting Lingyue alone.

Xiao Han was still in a daze, thinking whether he should just escape, feeling that the crown prince came too inexplicable. But on the face, she was still calm and calm, and asked a little curiously what Elder Han thought.

I have had a teacher-student friendship with Elder Han for a few years, and Xiao Han also knows that there is no need to circumscribe in front of him, so he can just ask, “Why me?”

If it is necessary to establish a crown prince to stabilize the situation and ensure the existence of the triangular order of the royal power and military power elders group, a child can be randomly selected from the four major families.

Elder Han’s tone was calm and calm, and said, “Because you are my student.”

The most outstanding and proud student I have cultivated, Elder Han said silently in his heart.

In fact, Elder Han’s mental state is very simple. The South Vietnamese monarchs are weaker than the generations, and they are indulging in peace and enjoyment. Since they are disappointed, then cultivate a monarch who can lead South Vietnam to a bright future. The way is to make his students become the crown prince. With a thought lingering in his mind, the appearance of Xiao Lingyue was a surprise to him.

Elder Han’s thoughts are so crude and direct. He doesn’t care whether his behavior is correct or not, he chooses right or not, that’s what he did. With him and Xiao Gao’s backing, his student Xiao Lingyue ascended to the crown prince is a matter of course. As for after going up, Xiao Lingyue is his student, and he will try his best to assist her and become one. An excellent king.

Xiao Han didn’t expect that it would be the most cost-effective thing to pay a teacher with a throne.

Of course, the Xiao family’s background should also play a role. Elder Han also didn’t mention his other student Han Yu, which was surprisingly non-existent.

Xiao Han shook his head in his heart, but it was a pity that this was not enough to make her feel tempted.

She just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Elder Han, “Remember that the development of South Vietnam that you used to talk to me can only be a corner?”

Xiao Han thought about it. Sometimes she talked a lot with Elder Han. Elder Han seemed to have a bad temper, but he was not unwilling to accept anything. For example, when Xiao Han was still young, he saw him deal with prisoners. The punishment was harsh, and I once told him about some of the flaws of severe punishments, which are easy to overcorrect, and it is impossible to achieve political integrity, people live in peace, and finally spread to the improvement and change of system rules and so on.

It seems that I have also said something about the development of South Vietnam. In the schoolwork assigned by Elder Han, Xiao Han once said that the South Vietnam country is safe enough, but I am afraid that it is impossible to expand the territory to the south.

In fact, this is also in line with the historical development. The land of Longxing has always been in the Central Plains.

At that time, Elder Han sank his face, but he also reprimanded Xiao Han, and instead asked her to continue talking.

Xiao Han thinks that she is not bad as a student. As long as the teacher is not too demanding, she will also deal with it seriously, so she said that it depends on the location and the manpower.

At the beginning of the establishment of the South Vietnam Kingdom, it seized the advantages of the geographical position. As long as the customs were closed, they could claim the king based on this place. They would consolidate themselves by risk, and block the chaotic battles outside or thousands of troops and horses from the customs, unable to advance. In addition, there are dense rivers, fertile land, developed agriculture, and self-sufficiency is not a problem at all.

However, the same goes to the south to compete for hegemony and expand the territory. It is also hindered by the dangers of the mountains and rivers. Moreover, although the most important armament horses, although they have a large number of stocks, they cannot support the war for more than three years. The manpower is also inferior to the Central Plains and cannot withstand the consumption. There is also a part of the South Vietnamese forces and ministries that do not have this mindset, not to mention the labor of the people and money, and the death of many young and strong laborers in the war.

At that time, Elder Han was shocked, his expression gloomy, Xiao Han’s conversation turned, but he said that there is no other way out. The next strategy is to wait for the opportunity. When the Central Plains is in a state of turmoil, the accumulation of strength in South Vietnam may not have the opportunity to gain control of the Central Plains.

The best policy is Xiao’s maritime trade. There are not only gold, silver and spices overseas, but also large expanses of land.

Xiao Han only talked a few words after tasting it. It seemed that the teacher would also need a period of time to digest it, and when she turned around, she left the matter behind.

What Xiao Han didn’t know, those words she said opened a new door to Elder Han. It was precisely because he could not accept the situation that South Vietnam was always on the safe side, thinking about how the fish in the pond could overwhelm the river even if they enjoy peace and happiness. However, the officials from the DPRK and the central government to the monarch are not enterprising and indulge in enjoyment, which has repeatedly frustrated his political views.

But he never thought of another way to survive, there are other ways to expand the territory.

Now that Xiao Han heard him bring up the old things, he also reacted. Her teacher had long ago thought. This time the civil strife seized power, which can also be said to be eradicating dissidents with different political opinions. After all, her teacher is very insistent, it is difficult to hear the words of others.

“What you said that day, although it is a child’s talk.” Elder Han said indifferently as he sat down.

Xiao Han couldn’t help but twitched his mouth slightly.

Elder Han’s expression became serious again, “But it may not be impossible to achieve. It is beneficial to my southern career.”

Xiao Han: “…”

The teacher is talking about the best or the worst. She wouldn’t accidentally pit Daxia, she would be really embarrassed.

Elder Han did not say clearly, but apparently he insisted on letting student Xiao Lingyue become the crown prince. Xiao Han was even more skeptical. If she ran away privately, Nan Yue might still issue a document to look for her appointed crown prince all over the world.

Based on her understanding of this teacher, she definitely did this kind of thing.

That kind of picture is really unbearable to imagine.

…

Xiao Han was entangled in her heart, but she actually saw clearly the current situation in South Vietnam. She became the crown prince, which is most beneficial to Madam Xiao and Elder Han.

And before Elder Han came to see her, he had basically decided on this matter, and there was no room for maneuver, and there was no need to even ask her opinion. She was gone, and there was no more than a fleeing crown prince.

But before agreeing, Xiao Han did not less to fight for more rights for his nameless crown prince.

Yes, there is no real name, but Xiao Han’s definition, the so-called great cause of rejuvenating the country, is far from the thirteen-year-old crown prince, and it might change again. For example, Xiao Han boldly and politely asked Elder Han why he didn’t become the King of Nanyue by himself.

Elder Han did not answer positively, but said with the attitude of a teacher, “You are still too young to understand a lot of things.”

Xiao Han guessed that Elder Han probably didn’t know how to answer this question. As the saying goes, he didn’t know how to be a good king. All he knew was what a wise and heroic king should look like and how to evaluate it.

Since Xiao Han no longer objected to this matter, Elder Han’s attitude towards her has become more and more relaxed.

Madam Xiao seemed to be a little worried, but smiled to Xiao Han and said that in any case, Xiao and Gao would always stand behind her and support her.

The ceremony for the canonization of the crown prince was held very grand and grand, and it was soon set down.

“From today, you will be the future king of Nanyue.”

On the high platform, Elder Han, who is the head of the hundred officials, solemnly bowed down and saluted Xiao Han.

Xiao Han didn’t avoid it either, and calmly accepted everyone’s knees.
