The fiefdom increases by 1 soldier in 1 second, and the empress kneels down and begs not to rebel

That night.

Prince Qing's Mansion.

Jin Changge put down the dried sweet potatoes in his hand, closed the book, then stood up and stretched.

Qing'er was sitting on a chair next to her, her head tilted and she had already dozed off. A ray of silver hung from the corner of her open mouth, flowing down to her sleeves.

Jin Changge glanced at her, picked up a handkerchief on the table and put it on Qing'er's sleeve.

Then she gently opened the door and walked out.

Winter nights are not as noisy as summer. The cold has caused the insects to burrow into the soil without making a sound.

It was a quiet night.

Outside the wooden aisle, a row of ginkgo trees have lost all their leaves.

Under the dim candlelight, the trunk of the ginkgo tree looked uneven, and insects seemed to have eaten a lot of bark.

The cotton shoes stepped on the wooden board, but they made no sound. She walked very lightly.

With a "squeak" sound.

Jin Changge opened the door of the mourning hall and walked in with a calm expression.

Although it was night, there were still candles in the mourning hall, and as the door opened, the candles swayed slightly in the wind.

In the flickering candlelight, Jin Changge picked up a few sticks of incense placed next to the altar.

With the candle lit, a few green smoke gradually floated up, first in a straight line, and then rose into the air and collapsed.

In the light smoke, those clear eyes were a little dazed.

Looking at the smoke, Jin Changge thought of the smoke he saw in the morning.

It was thick and dark smoke, and it went straight towards the sky, seeming to go deep into the sky.

That is the smoke generated by burning in the beacon tower.

Her absent-minded eyes gradually focused on the front, and she picked up the lit incense and inserted it into the incense burner.

And his eyes also fell on the tablet.

That is the tablet of mother Liu.

His mother died in childbirth, so Jin Changge did not know her appearance.

Although my father asked a painter to create a painting that copied my mother's appearance during her lifetime, it was still a painting, and there was always something missing.

I heard from my father that my mother was a beautiful, virtuous and talented woman during her lifetime.

His father had a deep love for his mother. Since his mother passed away, he did not remarry like an ordinary man.

This shows that my mother must have been a lovable woman during her lifetime.

It's a pity that I have never spoken a word to my mother, and I have never had the chance to know what my mother looks like.

Jin Changge bent down and knelt on the futon, then clasped his hands together and kowtowed devoutly.

When she straightened up, she opened her mouth, but no sound came from her thin lips that moved up and down.

After saying something in her heart, she bent down again.

This time, she didn't rise up immediately. She just put her forehead on the cold ground, letting her hair fall to her ears, and letting the candle light burn.

It wasn't until a series of footsteps reached his ears that Jin Changge straightened up, turned his confused face and looked at the door.

In the not particularly bright candlelight, Prince Qing's face appeared at the door.

Half of the face was illuminated by candlelight, while the other half was still hidden in the night.

"Huh? Yongning, why are you here?" Prince Qing looked at her and stepped into the threshold. Only then did the candlelight fully illuminate his face.

Jin Changge stood up and said calmly:

"Well...I'm tired of studying. Come and see my mother."

Prince Qing touched his beard and nodded with a smile, "Well, that's right. It's hard for you to have such intention."

Then, he sighed:

"Unlike the eldest brother and the third eldest brother, your eldest brother always deals with the problem and never comes back on weekdays."

"As for the third child, I didn't mention it before. He went overseas and was away from home for so long. Now that I've returned from overseas, I haven't seen him here."

"But Jiande still comes here from time to time."

Passing by Jin Changge, Prince Qing continued to say while taking the incense:

"You girl, you don't eat with us every day, and you hide in your room and don't come out. These days, the words you and I have said together are no more than the previous day."

"It's said that women change their lives, but you, girl, change too fast."

Jin Changge pursed her lips and said nothing. She slowly stood up and waited quietly.

King Qing lit the incense and put it in the furnace, looking at the tablet in a daze.

"Dad, how long will it take for them to invade the capital?" Jin Changge's voice suddenly sounded.

Prince Qing turned around and looked straight at Jin Changge. Then he shook his head and said:

"Although the smoke is coming, they may not be able to invade the capital."

"Your elder brother is still taking care of it, so don't worry too much."

"Well, Dad, I'm going back to my room." Jin Changge agreed, turned around and walked out.

"Yongning..." Prince Qing stopped her.

Jin Changge turned his face away, with no expression on his fair face.

"The next war will probably harm Jinling, so we have to leave Jinling for the time being."

Jin Changge raised his eyebrows and said, "Leave Jinling?"

Prince Qing nodded, stroked his beard and said, "Yes, the traitors are coming with the rebels. Although they have sent out a large army to suppress them, they must protect themselves before the battle is decided."

"This is called retreating in order to advance."

Jin Changge looked calm and said calmly:

"Retreat in order to advance?"

"Dad thought well."

She continued to walk out and said, "Dad, I won't leave Jinling."

As soon as these words came out, Prince Qing frowned and the hand stroking his beard immediately dropped.

He walked a few steps quickly, caught up and said:

"Stop, what are you talking about?"

Jin Changge stopped for a moment, but did not look back. She said calmly:

"Dad, I was born in Jinling. This is my home. I won't go anywhere. I want to stay here."

Prince Qing frowned and said immediately:

"Before the battle is decided, there will be many dangers in Jinling. Silly girl like you, don't you even understand this..."

"So what if it's dangerous? I don't care." Jin Changge's voice became colder.

King Qing was furious and scolded: "You silly girl, you are my daughter! How can you stay in Jinling!"

"If there is someone good enough to be caught by the rebels, then what should we do?"

"If you don't leave, are you still thinking of leading troops to suppress the rebels? That's all on weekdays. At this time, we won't tolerate your mischief!"

Jin Changge suddenly laughed, and she turned to look at Prince Qing:

"Dad, how could I lead soldiers and horses to fight against the rebels?"

"I won't do anything. I will stay in the house and not go anywhere."

After saying this, she continued to walk out.

As soon as she stepped over the threshold, Prince Qing grabbed her:

"Silly girl! Stop talking nonsense!"

"You are so willful that you can't understand the situation at all! My father knows that you have been in Aurous Hill since you were a child, but so what!"

"It doesn't mean you won't come back if you leave! You stay here. If anything happens, you will be called my father..."

"Stop talking, Dad, I won't leave."

"Let my daughter stay here, let her... stay in Prince Qing's Mansion."

Jin Changge did not look back. She threw away Prince Qing's hand with her backhand. After saying these two sentences, she ignored Prince Qing's shouting and walked straight towards the deep corridor.

As the candlelight flickered, Prince Qing chased him out the door, watching his daughter's back gradually disappearing, his face full of doubts and confusion.

After a long time, he waved his hands and cursed:

"What's wrong with this stupid girl? She's crazy!"
