Lan Xi's eyes suddenly lit up, "Unless, their real purpose is not to knock on the pass, but just to attract the attention of the defenders of Beiguan, and then report the battle report to the capital......" Speaking of this, there was a flash of inspiration, and said, "Could it be that King Ping secretly colluded with Beidi?" ”

The corners of Geng Xiwu's mouth tugged up, a real smile jumped on his lips, he raised his hand and gently patted the top of Lan Xi's head, and said, "What a smart girl!" I've had people investigate it covertly. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info a few days ago, Beidi did suffer a snow disaster, and a large number of cattle and sheep were frozen to death, but long before that, there had been changes in the Beidi army. Moreover, in the face of such a catastrophe, their rations were never broken. I'm afraid that I have already received the benefits of others, and I may not have understood how anyone could arrange all these things in advance. Listening to you talk about Zhao Yu, these doubts were also solved. Relying on his unpredictable prophet, it is no wonder that he restrained King An's 150,000 military horses on the edge of the Jing River, and made King An complacent! ”

"Yes! No wonder Zhao Yu knew that King Ping didn't have much affection for him, and he knew that his brothers were eyeing him as the prince, so he dared to go back to that place. These alone are enough for him to sit firmly on the throne of the prince of Ping. Lan Xi didn't want to be afraid, but when she remembered that day in the palace, when Zhao Yu stopped her, the last sentence was like an oath, and she still felt uneasy from the bottom of her heart.

Taking her face in his eyes, Geng Xiwu sighed and reached out to wrap her into his arms, "Don't worry too much. Although King Ping had Zhao Yu's help, because he had advanced the time, this preparation was not sufficient. What's more, King Ping's military strength is limited, how can he compare with the imperial court? Besides, don't we still have my uncle's secret move? ”

Lan Xi didn't speak, leaned against his chest, unable to convince herself that she was completely at ease, but at least in his arms, she felt that she was not afraid of anything.

The two are enjoying this intimate and warm moment, but someone wants to spoil the scenery at this time.

"Master! Someone came to the palace, and the saint asked you to enter the palace immediately, saying that there was something important to discuss. ”

At this time, summon him to the palace? Geng Xiwu and Lan Xi glanced at each other, and they both felt something in their hearts.

When Geng Xiwu came back, the sky was already dark, and there were more than a dozen candles lit on the candlesticks in the flower hall, flickering from time to time.

Geng Xiwu's footsteps paused, and then he leaned over hesitantly. "Didn't you have to wait for me? Why haven't you slept yet? ”

The slightly cool hand was wrapped in the familiar generosity and warmth, Lan Xi looked down at the hands of the two of them, raised her head, looked at him, the candle flame flickered in her eyes, a different kind of brightness, "Holy ...... But do you want you to go to Beiguan on behalf of your father? ”

Although it was a question, Lan Xi's tone was a statement of fact that had already been determined.

Geng Xiwu's eyes darkened, and then, he still nodded, "Hmm." ”

Even though he had expected it, when he really heard such an affirmative fact, the look in Lan Xifeng's eyes still dimmed. He replied softly, "Oh", and then, bowing his head a little gloomily, said no more.

In the swaying of the candle flame, her beautiful side face was clearly extinguished, her half-drooping eyelashes seemed to be tired, and a pair of winged butterflies temporarily perched under the moon, the occasional flapping wings, seemed to be startled by the wind, blowing all the way into Geng Xiwu's heart, making his heart sour, and then astringent.

The hand holding it in the palm of his hand tightened again, and his porcelain voice was inexplicably a little hoarse, "I'm sorry, Aqing." I know that I should have been by your side all the time. Looking over her lowered face and looking at her slightly bulging lower abdomen, Geng Xiwu's mood at this moment was really indescribably obscure and reluctant, but he had to be helpless.

"What can we do?" In fact, as early as when the saint insisted on wanting the Marquis of Jingbei to go on the expedition, Lan Xi was already psychologically prepared, and Geng Xiwu was the same. By now, it was up to them, and although she didn't necessarily want to, he had to leave after all, and of course she would rather see him off with a smile than crying and worrying him. "Don't worry! I will take good care of myself and take good care of my children. You are in Beiguan, you must be careful, you must come back safely, and remember that my child and I are waiting for you at home. ”

Geng Xiwu hugged her into his arms and opened his mouth, wanting to say that he would definitely rush back as soon as possible, at least when she gave birth, he would definitely be by her side. However, when I opened my mouth, I found that my throat seemed to be clamped by something, and it was obscure, and I couldn't spit out a word. Because I found that everything I said was like a quibble, like empty words that would not be fulfilled. Because, he knew that even if he made a promise at this moment, there would be thousands of unavoidable things in the future, so he couldn't keep his promise, so it was better not to say it at the beginning.

Geng Xiwu's action is not as procrastinate as King An, since he received the order, but after a day's work, he ordered the general, and rushed to Beiguan with a light car.

sent Geng Xiwu away, Xu is because of the child in his belly as a companion this time, Lanxi is not as uncomfortable as before, but quickly cheered up, eat when he should eat, sleep when he should sleep. Since Layue, her morning sickness has stopped, and then her appetite has completely improved, and not just better, but has become a little too good, just after eating, she feels hungry again, and she seems to have been eating all day, Lan Xi once thought that she couldn't feed this in her stomach.

But Qin's mother was very happy, smiling so much every day that she urged Hua'er to prepare this and do that, and said that the little master in Lanxi's belly was sensible, and she also knew that she was distressed by her mother, and this was to quickly grow back the meat she had lost earlier. Lan Xi couldn't cry or laugh when she heard it, and she was worried that she would continue to eat like this again, not to mention the meat that had disappeared due to morning sickness earlier, but she was afraid that more meat would have to grow, she thought, she had to control it, don't wait for her to become a big fat person, and the child is too big to give birth. But every time Qin's mother brought her favorite food, she couldn't resist it, and she refused to stop until the plate was empty.

I had to regret it after eating, holding the grass and their hands, circling around the house until I was panting, sitting down and resting for a while, and when my breathing calmed down, I got up and walked again, I was hungry, I ate again, and after eating, I began to circle again, and the cycle continued.

The time of the day passed quietly between eating and turning in circles.

When Geng Xiwu left, it was already the end of the month, but this year, due to the war, it was extremely bland, and there was no taste of the New Year.

However, no one cares about the people in the capital. After all, now that the enemy is on his back, even in this splendid pile, he is worried about when bad news will come from the north or south. The more accustomed people are to wealth and leisure, the more afraid they are of change. And the more you have, the more you are afraid of losing. This has been the case since ancient times.
