The prince is very fierce

The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, the eve of the new year.

The sound of firecrackers and gorgeous fireworks can be heard in the distance above the Fen River in Taiyuan City. There is singing and dancing in the huge city where hundreds of thousands of people gather. Even the frontier army camps that stretch for several miles are immersed in the atmosphere of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new.

After eight hundred miles of traveling, Xu Buling arrived at Yatou Bay in the upper reaches of the Fen River late at night and found the building ship moored in the port.

Taiyuan is far away from Youzhou and is located on the west side of the eastern front. It is 900 miles away from Chang'an. Going west, passing Luliang and Yanzhou, you will go directly to the vicinity of Yuanzhou. Xiliang soldiers and horses are stationed in Yuanzhou. When you get there, it is basically It's like going home.

When they arrived in Taiyuan, the wolf guard and the pursuers had disappeared, but the jade seal was still with him. For the sake of safety, Xu Buling did not rush on the road with great fanfare, and his whereabouts were still hidden along the way.

When they arrived at the port on the Fen River, it was already past three o'clock. Jiujiu and Chuchu, who were riding on the same horse, were close to each other. They were both drowsy, with a bit of haggardness on their cheeks, obviously caused by the long journey.

Ning Qingye has a strong character and never shows her weak side in front of Xu Buling. She sits upright on the horse, her long hair fluttering in the night wind, and she looks quite chic.

Seeing Chu Chu sleeping on Zhongli Jiujiu's back, Ning Qingye said:

"Why are you running in such a hurry? Aren't you afraid of exhausting your ninth girl to death?"

Zhongli Jiujiu was drowsy, but she woke up immediately after hearing these words. She didn't dare to say harsh words, but said softly: "What the hell, Miss Ninth, Qingye, just call me sister."

Xu Buling walked beside Ning Qingye. He was actually very tired, but when he saw the boat floating on the river in the distance, he smiled with relief:

"Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve. We have to sit down and have a meal together as a family. It's okay to be tired now. We can have a good rest when we get to the ship."

After Ning Qingye saw the boat, he quickened his horse speed and ran to the river.

Xu Buling followed closely with Nightingale and his master and apprentice. He turned over and dismounted on the shore, and the palace guards came over immediately.

The lights on both floors of the ship were out. Only the wedding room on the second floor was still lit, and the silhouette of a woman writing was revealed in the window.

Xu Buling saw this and asked the guards not to disturb the girls' rest. He led the horse to the deck and walked quietly to the ship building.

Zhongli Jiujiu didn't want to serve tea to all the sisters so late at night, so she silently returned to her room. Chu Chu wanted to complain to her good sister Yu Fu, but it was too late to disturb others, so she went back to her room. Ning Qingye went to Ning Yuhe's room to report that he was safe.

Xu Buling let Nightingale go back to her room to rest. Carrying the wooden box containing the jade seal alone, she quietly walked to the second floor, raised her hand and knocked on the door.

Dong Dong——

"Come in."

Pushing the door open, he looked up and saw a candle lamp placed on the large desk. The room was full of joy, with a bright red quilt spread under the curtain, and various gold utensils placed on the desk.

Xiao Qi, who was wearing a black nightgown, was sitting behind the desk. Her long black hair was spread on her back. She had obviously just taken a shower, and her skin was still a little flushed, as bright and moving as a hibiscus. However, her temperament was still cold, and her face was still cold. No emotion at all.

Xu Buling entered the wedding room, Xiao Qi took a quick glance, and then turned back to continue reading the letter. However, her expression soon froze, and she turned her head suddenly. Her expression was very different from the calm expression of the past, and she stood up from the chair. He leaned against the window, covering his belly with his hands, and widened his eyes:

"Xu Buling, why are you back?"

? ?

Xu Buling, whose eyes were full of tenderness, also had a stiff expression. Looking at his mature and intellectual fiancée, she didn't feel any joy at all after seeing him, and she still showed such an evasive look. Naturally, she felt uncomfortable in her heart, and she frowned and said:

"Qiqi, what's wrong? Don't you welcome me?"

"no……"

Xiao Qi reacted quickly, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, she quickly put down her hands and stood up straight, smiling:

"Ms. sir, I'm rude... I just didn't expect you to come back so soon. I should have picked you up..."

Xu Buling nodded, although he was a little confused, but Xiao Qi was busy with official duties all day long and had almost no time for leisure. It was normal for her to feel a little distracted when it was too late, so she didn't take it to heart. He closed the door, put the jade seal on the desk, and raised his hand to hug Xiao Qi over and have a big fight.

There was some fear and embarrassment in Xiao Qi's eyes. Her sister had drawn a talisman under her belly. She dared not let her fiancé see it. She quickly took the initiative, took Xu Buring's stretched out hands, stood up slightly on tiptoes and kissed Xu Buring's face. Then he said:

"Let's get down to business, grown man, don't just think about Wenrou Township."

Xu Buling knew Xiao Qi's temperament and knew that something was wrong with the current situation, so he was not too impatient. He sat down on the Taishi chair and patted his legs:

"Don't waste all day --\u003e\u003e

My mind is only thinking about business, so I have to rest when I need it, otherwise my body won't be able to bear it. "

Xiao Qi obediently sat down on Xu Buling's lap and smiled softly: "I don't want this. Do you expect Xiang'er and Hongluan to fail? There must be someone who can advise you..."

Xu Bu Ling nodded, feeling that Xiao Qi was a little too good today, not at all like the domineering, strong and intellectual lady she used to be. After thinking about it secretly, she thought it was just a little farewell rather than a newlywed. He turned and looked at the desk:

"Is there urgent news?"

When Xiao Qi talked about business, she lost some of the little woman's shyness, picked up the letter on the table, leaned into Xu Buling's arms, and said seriously:

"A few days ago, the gangsters Sun Qian, Shi Chun and others led the uprising in Jiangnan. It should be arranged by the King of Wu. It was premeditated and the government was slow to react. However, in just ten days, the rebels expanded to more than 20,000 people. Muzhou's defense was loose, and the 3,000 garrison troops abandoned the city without even fighting. Now I don't know what it has become."

Xu Buling didn't seem surprised by this. He hugged Aunt Xiao Ting and looked at the handwritten letter of his old classmate Xiao Ting:

"The soldiers in Jiangnan have never fought a war, and with the King of Wu interfering, they naturally fled. What was the reaction in Chang'an City?"

Xiao Qi picked up another letter on the table: "The emperor was furious when he asked about it, but he might have guessed that something was wrong. He did not scold the King of Wu, nor did he urge the King of Wu to suppress it, but sent a letter Order the Liaoxi Protectorate and the two kings of Yu and Wei to quickly send troops to Jiangnan to quell the rebellion. "

Xu Buling nodded gently: "It seems that Song Ji is not stupid."

Xiao Qi shook his head: "You and I are outsiders, and we have received a lot of information, so we can see the situation clearly. Chang'an City was kept in the dark, and it is definitely not as far-sighted as you and me. The emperor guessed that it was the King of Wu who was doing it, but he didn't know the King of Wu's layout, and he just thought that the King of Wu wanted to take advantage of the uprising of refugees. But according to my guess, the two kings of Yu and Wei must have colluded with the King of Wu long ago. The King of Wu did not want to establish himself as an emperor, but relied on his strong financial resources to support the King of Wei, who had the strongest combat power, to take the throne. At this time, the order to quell the rebellion was issued, and the two kings of Wei and Yu must have pretended to obey and secretly disobeyed, and went for one day and rested for three days to delay time. "

Xu Buling thought about it and agreed with this statement.

The Jiangnan soldiers under the King of Wu could not fight at all, and the possibility of rebellion was better than nothing. The King of Wei was different. The King of Wei and the King of Yue guarded the south and confronted the Nanyue head-on.

The King of Yue lived in a remote and poor place, so poor that he couldn't even get enough armor. He was just a bystander among the seven vassal kings and had no sense of existence. Basically, the King of Wei was the only one in charge of Nanyue. Although the quality of his soldiers was slightly worse than that of the northern border, the King of Wei had the capital to compete for the world.

"Then Jiangnan will probably be in chaos, and I don't know how many people will die."

Xiao Qi sighed: "Not only that, the two kings of Yu and Wei will not move, and the Liaoxi Protectorate will have to mobilize troops to suppress the rebellion. A few days ago, the news of the imperial seal and your affairs reached Chang'an. In order to prevent the king of Su from attacking Guanzhong Road, Chang'an City transferred a large number of elite troops to the western front. At this time, if someone tampered with the eastern pass, it would be too late to return to help."

Xu Buling frowned: "Is this all planned by the King of Wu?"

"It's hard to say, the result of all parties secretly fueling the flames. The eastern front spans thousands of miles from Luliang to Youzhou, and it is impossible to figure out where it will start. We are in the west, and it can't affect us for the time being. We can just wait and see."

Xu Buling didn't have any soldiers under his command, and it seemed that he couldn't do anything except watch the show. He nodded and raised his hand to untie the laces of Xiao Qi's skirt.

After Xiao Qi finished talking about the business, her eyes were slightly flustered again, and she held Xu Buling's hand:

"Husband, you... I'm on my period, you go find Xiang'er."

Xu Buling was a little helpless: "My wife, do you think I can't remember the date?"

"..."

Xiao Qi was anxious: "I'm tired, forget it..."

"You don't have to move, let you relax."

Xu Buling put Xiao Qi on the desk with a smile, and his movements were gentle.

Xiao Qi supported the table with one hand, trying to block it with her hand, her face seemed to be red and bleeding. But she was just a scholarly lady, how could she be Xu Buling's opponent, before she could see clearly, her skirt opened.

? ?

Flying Phoenix Spreads Wings...

Xu Buling's smile froze, and he looked down at the dignified and intellectual Miss Xiao's... that...

The warm and decorated wedding room was silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

Seeing that the truth was revealed, Xiao Qi's eyes showed a look of wanting to cry but not being able to, helplessly covering her eyes, she trembled and said:

"Xiang... Xiang'er, that damn girl..."

"Qi Qi is the best... hehe..."

"Don't laugh!"

"My lady, take your hands away, I'll take a closer look..."

"Ah~..."
