Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan looked at each other. Father and daughter could see from each other's eyes that this was within their expectations.
"It looks like your method is effective." Qin Huaiyuan hugged Brother Zhao and placed a piece on the chessboard. A crisp sound came from the wooden chessboard.
Brother Han twisted in Qin Yining's arms and curiously craned her neck to look outside the door. Qin Yining was in no mood to play chess.
"Mother, outside, I want to go outside to play."
"Brother Han, you don't want to learn how to play chess?" Qin Yining pinched Brother Han's soft little cheeks.
Brother Han threw her head into Qin Yining's arms and shook her butt while shaking her head. "No, Mother, Brother Han wants to go out and see! Gege also wants to go! "
Brother Zhao was playing with a piece in his hand. He didn't think that he would be "implicated" if he didn't say anything. He looked at Brother Han in shock.
Brother Han had already jumped out of Qin Yining's arms and grabbed Brother Zhao's hand to run outside. "Gege, let's go!"
Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh. The father and daughter pair walked out of the tent together.
The main tent they were in was located in the middle of the camp and was far from the city gates. However, the surrounding soldiers were all talking. Even if they didn't see it with their own eyes, they could guess the situation at the city gates.
When the soldiers saw Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan pass by with the two children, they all raised their hands in salute. They were all extremely respectful towards Wang Ye's father-in-law and wangfei.
When they arrived at the front of the formation, before they could get close to Pang Xiao, they saw the city gates open wide. There were people moving inside the city gates. They didn't know what the people inside the gates were doing.
Xu Weizhi, Xie Yue, and the others had already gathered around Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu. Everyone's expressions were calm. They knew that Li Qitian wouldn't be able to do anything, so they didn't feel nervous at all. In fact, they were even a little excited.
Wang Ye had not given them any further instructions even after so many days at the foot of the city walls. They were already getting impatient from waiting! Although there would definitely be casualties if they launched an all-out attack, which emperor in the past didn't conquer the world on horseback? As long as it was a war, there would definitely be casualties. This was also an established fact that no one could change when the wheels of history were rolling.
"Daddy!" Brother Han ran towards Pang Xiao with his short legs, pulling Brother Zhao with him.
Pang Xiao heard the sound and turned around. He couldn't help but laugh. With one hand, he grabbed Han Ge 'er, who had opened his arms to ask for a hug, and with the other hand, he picked Han Ge' er up as well.
Brother Zhao wrapped his arms around Pang Xiao's neck and didn't say anything. He obediently leaned into his father's arms and looked at the city gates in the distance with a puzzled expression.
However, Han Ge 'er mischievously tried to climb onto Pang Xiao's neck. He grabbed onto Pang Xiao's hair for support like a restless little monkey.
Ji Zeyu watched from the side as Pang Xiao grimaced in pain from being grabbed by his hair. He couldn't help but laugh and shake his head. He waved at Han Ge 'er and said, "Han Ge' er, come to Uncle Ji."
"Uncle Ji, I want to be high up!"
Ji Zeyu was stunned. He didn't understand what the child meant.
At this time, Qin Yining had already walked over. She said helplessly, "This child wants to sit on your shoulders. Don't let him." Then she turned to tell Brother Han, "You're a big boy now. Why do you always want to sit on my shoulders?"
"It's fine." Ji Zeyu understood. He placed Han Ge 'er on his shoulders and held onto his small hands.
This was a novel experience for Ji Zeyu. He didn't have any children, so it was naturally his first time experiencing the joy of being a father. The child's soft body sat on his shoulders. Even though it didn't weigh much, he was carrying something very important.
Ji Zeyu was about the same height as Pang Xiao. The experience of sitting on his shoulders was the same as sitting on Pang Xiao's shoulders. Han Ge 'er was happy. He grabbed Ji Zeyu's hands and shook them. He even swung his short legs and inadvertently kicked Ji Zeyu's shoulders a few times.
"Uncle Ji, what are they doing?"
Ji Zeyu said patiently, "They probably want to deploy troops."
Pang Xiao also let Han Ge 'er sit on his shoulders and supported the child with both hands. "Not necessarily. I think they're more likely to surrender. "
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding soldiers laughed heartily.
Zhao Ge 'er and Han Ge' er had never seen such a scene before. When the two children heard the adults laughing, they also laughed.
Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help but laugh when they saw the two children sitting on Ji Zeyu and Pang Xiao's shoulders laughing so heartily.
Qin Yining felt a little emotional. Ji Zeyu looked like an ice- cold person, but he treated Pang Xiao with sincerity. Even when he treated Pang Xiao's son, he was extremely patient and gentle. It was as if he wasn't the iceberg person he used to be.
As they were talking, a large patch of red suddenly appeared at the city gates.
They were officials wearing Da Zhou's court uniforms. There were at least forty to fifty people. They didn't bring any troops or guards with them as they quickly walked out to welcome them.
In front of the two armies, one side openly stepped forward. Pang Xiao naturally wouldn't show weakness.
He turned around and handed the child to Qin Yining. He smiled and pinched Qin Yining's face. "I'll go meet them."
Qin Yining hugged Zhao Ge 'er.
"Okay. Be careful."
Pang Xiao smiled casually. "Those guys won't be able to do anything to me."
He turned around and jumped onto the "Dark Cloud" that Huzi brought over. Holding his long saber upside down, he rode out of the crowd alone and headed straight for the group of civil officials on the other side.
Ji Zeyu didn't feel reassured. He also handed Zhao Ge 'er to Qin Yining. "I'll also go take a look."
He didn't wait for Qin Yining to reply before he jumped onto White Cloud's back and urged his horse to chase after them.
Without the commander's orders, the Tiger Army and the South Pacifying Army didn't act rashly. However, everyone was nervous. Even without Wang Ye's orders, their expressions were solemn and they were ready to fight at any time.
Pang Xiao had already arrived in front of the officials. He pulled on the reins and Black Cloud's front hooves left the ground. It reared up and neighed.
"Everyone, why are you leaving the city in such a grand manner?"
Pang Xiao sat upright on his horse and looked down at the people in front of him.
Ji Zeyu also arrived at this time. He pulled on the reins beside Pang Xiao and looked inquiringly at Pang Xiao.
Without waiting for Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu to speak, the leader of the officials stepped forward and bowed. "Greetings to Wang Ye. We are here to welcome Wang Ye for the safety of the people of the capital."
"Oh?" Pang Xiao tapped his horsewhip lightly against his palm. "You are here to welcome This King? Could it be that the Son of Heaven has thought things through and ordered you to welcome him grandly? "
"Indeed, we are here to welcome you. However, this isn't the Son of Heaven's orders. "
The leader looked straight at Yu Ziqiu. Now that he saw Pang Xiao, he was intimidated by his aura and didn't speak with as much confidence as he did in the palace.
