#591 - A big ghost who has a clear distinction between love and hate
Just help one side for now.
When Wei Changtian said these words, Wei Xianzheng and Wei Zhaohai simply exchanged a glance, their expressions not particularly surprised.
After all, Wei Changtian was right, the Great Shu Dynasty had only just been established, and its foundations were unstable, with limited power to mobilize.
In this situation, if they were to divide their forces, they would likely end up losing on both fronts.
Therefore, it would be better to concentrate their forces and defend one side first.
As for which side to help...
From a geographical perspective, the western front was closer to the Great Shu border.
Moreover, Xu Sui Sui's relationship with Wei Changtian was extraordinary, and Xin Feng's national strength was much weaker than Da Ning's.
Therefore, it seemed more prudent to help Xin Feng defend against the enemy from the west first.
However...
“East, we will help Ning Wenjun defend Liangzhou.”
“Xu Sui Sui has my maternal grandfather in her hands, and his combat power is currently unmatched in the world.”
“Furthermore, Xu Sui Sui herself has some extraordinary methods, even if she ultimately cannot hold it, she should be able to delay for a while.”
“But Ning Wenjun is different.”
“Although Da Ning now possesses thirty-five prefectures, the ten prefectures that originally belonged to Da Feng will certainly not be of one mind with Ning Wenjun.”
“Moreover, these ten prefectures are far from Liangzhou, and they probably won't even send troops when the time comes.”
“Relying solely on Da Ning's twenty-five prefectures, Ning Wenjun will probably not be able to hold out for too long once a war breaks out.”
“And once Liangzhou is lost, Da Ning's entire northern border will be exposed to the armies of Ji and Dajue, followed by a devastating massacre.”
“Therefore, we must help Ning Wenjun defend Liangzhou.”
“...”
Wei Changtian's last sentence was extremely firm, which made Wei Xianzheng and Wei Zhaohai think for a long time.
“Alright, since that's the case, then we will help Ning Wenjun first.”
After a while, Wei Xianzheng nodded and said with a smile: “Moreover, he is more obedient than Xu Sui Sui.”
“Yes.”
Wei Changtian also smiled: “Helping relatives over principles.”
“Hahahaha!”
“Changtian is right!”
A burst of laughter rang out in the main hall, seemingly in jest, but in reality, it was the true thoughts of the three.
Even if Da Ning still belonged to the Ning family, the Wei family could at least influence most of Ning Wenjun's decisions, if not outright ruling from behind the scenes.
But Xin Feng was not like that.
Previous events had already shown that Xu Sui Sui, regardless of her abilities, had many ideas and would not listen to Wei Changtian's arrangements.
In this case, it was definitely better to help Ning Wenjun first.
“By the way, Changtian, in that case, shouldn't you return to the capital?”
After laughing, Wei Xianzheng asked: “Or should we have Ning Wenjun come to Shuzhou City?”
“I should go.”
Wei Changtian took a sip of tea and replied with a smile: “No matter what, he is the Emperor of Da Ning, it wouldn't be appropriate for him to travel thousands of miles to see me.”
“Alright, then we will return together after the New Year.”
Wei Xianzheng nodded: “At that time, Qiaoling will stay in Shuzhou City.”
“Yes, it's good for my little sister to have someone to play with if she stays.”
Wei Changtian replied, turning his head to look through the window at the figure running around outside.
“Where's my mother? Is she coming back this time?”
“I originally wanted her to stay too.”
Wei Xianzheng smiled wryly: “But she insisted on returning to the capital with me, so let her go.”
“Father, my mother wants to keep an eye on you.”
Wei Changtian didn't hesitate to tease his own father: “Afraid that you'll be lonely in the capital and marry a few more wives, hahahaha.”
“You”
Shaking his head helplessly, Wei Xianzheng didn't say anything about Wei Changtian's "lack of respect", but remained silent for a moment, then asked in a worried voice:
“Changtian, have you met your maternal grandfather yet?”
“Why did he suddenly obey that Xu Sui Sui? And how did he break through to the first rank? Do you know these things?”
“Although your mother hasn't asked you again, she is actually very worried.”
“You should find an opportunity to talk to her.”
“...”
When the topic turned to Qin Zhengqiu, the smile on Wei Changtian's face slowly faded, and after a long time, he slowly replied:
“Yes, I understand.”
By the time he finished chatting with Wei Xianzheng and Wei Zhaohai, it was already Hai hour (9-11 pm).
The "tea party" in the main courtyard had long ended, and the fruit plates, tea sets, and other items had been taken away by the maids, and the residence had returned to peace.
Bathed in moonlight, Wei Changtian came out of the main hall and slowly walked to Liang Qin's independent courtyard, preparing to sleep here tonight.
This was an "order" that Qin Caizhen had specifically instructed the maid to deliver before going to bed.
The reason for this was the excuse that Lu Jingyao had been forced to find.
She had been married into the Wei family for the longest time, although she had been separated from Wei Changtian for more than half a year, she had quickly come to Shuzhou later.
In this situation, she had not conceived a child, Qin Caizhen was naturally anxious, and had been pressing her for an answer all day today.
Of course, Lu Jingyao couldn't say that she hadn't conceived because Wei Changtian had only touched her once, so in the end, she could only find a barely plausible reason—
Since Liang Qin, as the legal wife, hadn't conceived, she, as a concubine, wouldn't dare to have a child first.
Obviously, Qin Caizhen had been successfully fooled.
So she "ordered" Wei Changtian to quickly have a baby with Liang Qin, and then have a bunch of children with his other wives, eventually achieving the goal of "having a house full of children and grandchildren, breaking the Wei family's tradition of single heirs for generations."
“I didn't expect that I'm going to be a father soon.”
“No, it will still take at least a year before I become a father.”
Muttering to himself, he walked through the small courtyard towards the room with the light on.
Wei Changtian quickly stood at the door, and then realized that there was a black dog lying at his feet.
“Why is Da Gui lying outside your door?”
Pushing open the door and walking into the room, Wei Changtian asked Liang Qin, who was waiting for him, with a puzzled expression: “Didn't Qiaoling make a fuss?”
“How could she not?”
Liang Qin looked depressed: “I don't know why, but Da Gui just likes to follow me.”
“Qiaoling cried for a long time just now, and was coaxed to sleep by Qiuyun after she was tired of crying.”
“Alright.”
Not dwelling too much on this matter, Wei Changtian had just taken off his coat when he saw Liang Qin suddenly blush.
“Uh... Did my mother also say something to you?”
“Yes.”
“Hahaha, we are an old married couple, what are you shy about?”
“I'm not shy at all!”
Liang Qin retorted, but her face became more and more red.
“Turn... turn off the lights, I'll go to the bed... bed and wait for you.”
She pursed her lips and glared at Wei Changtian, then slowly moved to the curtain, undressed, and began to work with Wei Changtian to create a little person.
However, before the two could start, they suddenly heard a dog barking outside the house.
“Woof woof!”
“Woof woof woof!”
The sound of a dog barking at such a time was undoubtedly a very unpleasant thing, so Wei Changtian quickly rushed out of the room, preparing to throw Da Gui far away.
But when he saw Da Gui's vigilant and angry eyes, he was stunned for a moment.
“Da Gui, can you understand human speech?”
Slowly squatting down, Wei Changtian whispered: “If you can understand, nod your head.”
“...”
“Then are you a transmigrator?”
“Don't worry! If you are really a transmigrator, I will treat you well! I will find you a bunch of female dogs!”
“...”
Man and dog confronted each other in the moonlight, Da Gui remained unresponsive.
Good fellow!
So you are just an ordinary dog!
Coming to this conclusion, Wei Changtian immediately stood up, and threw Da Gui far away with a displeased expression.
Afraid that the latter would run back and ruin things again, he even directly used a "Lock Dragon".
This was Wei Changtian's first time using "Lock Dragon", and the thing being locked was actually a dog.
After performing the "Lock Dog" divine power, Wei Changtian patted his hands in satisfaction, watching Da Gui jumping back and forth in the invisible air wall, and turned back to the room.
Soon, strange noises rang out in the room.
Locked under a tree, Da Gui could not understand what this sound represented, it just stared at the closed door, its dog eyes with a hint of "sadness".
Da Gui was certainly not a transmigrator, it didn't even know why it liked Liang Qin.
When it was in the Wei residence, its favorite was Wei Qiaoling, and its most hated was Wei Xianzheng.
Coming here, its favorite became Liang Qin, and its most hated became Wei Changtian.
Thinking about it this way, Da Gui could be said to be a good dog with "clear likes and dislikes".
It's just that it doesn't know what its "evaluation criteria" for love and hate are.
