Chapter Seventy-Three
"Feng Lan?" Seeing the people inside the carriage clearly, a trace of surprise flashed in Chu Yunxi's eyes. She clearly remembered that Feng Lan was asleep in the room, and how she got to the carriage in the blink of an eye.
It was rare to tease Chu Yunxi once, and Xia Fenglan found it very interesting. Holding on to the window frame, he sat up slightly, poured a cup of warm tea for Chu Yunxi, and said softly: "The 'Snow Green in the Heavens' that has just been brewed, do you want to taste it?" ā
The carriage was prepared by Chu Yunxi and Xia Xin, and it was much stronger than the carriage in the house.
Looking around the carriage, Chu Yunxi found that the interior of the carriage was very exquisitely arranged, a table and a chair were all according to her preferences, and the curtain next to the bed was embroidered with her favorite Junzi Orchid.
Even the details can be arranged in such detail, and it is self-evident whose handwriting the decoration on this carriage is.
"I turned around and dismissed Xia Xin." Sitting down in front of Xia Fenglan, taking a sip of the tea on the table, Chu Yunxi said, "You actually hooked up with you behind my back." ā
Xia Fenglan covered her mouth and laughed, and said, "After dismissing Xia Xin, who do you let be the general?" ā
"The arrangement on the carriage should not be completed in a day." The index finger gently turned around the rope on the curtain, and Chu Yunxi looked at Xia Fenglan, "Say, when did you find Xia Xin?" ā
"It was just three days ago." Xia Fenglan didn't hide it, and said, "Originally, I thought that if you go out alone, there will definitely be no one to take good care of you on the road, so I want to arrange everything that can be arranged for you first......
When Chu Yunxi heard this, he stroked the back of Xia Fenglan's smooth hand and said with a smile: "Fenglan, you are really virtuous, I really can't live without you more and more." ā
"You can't live without me, and you want to leave me behind?" Xia Fenglan raised her eyebrows, looked at Chu Yunxi, and said, "If I hadn't been prepared, I would have been left in the mansion by you." ā
"The barracks are so chaotic, I'm also worried about you." Walking to Xia Fenglan's side, Chu Yunxi hugged Xia Fenglan's waist, gently rubbed it, and said, "Is your waist still sore?" ā
Xia Fenglan leaned back, snuggled into Chu Yunxi's arms, snorted lightly, and said, "You tossed me for so long last night, how can you not be tired." ā
"You can get into the carriage before me, I see you're in good spirits." Chu Yunxi smiled, rubbing Xia Fenglan's waist and gradually down, skillfully stroking Xia Fenglan's sensitive place.
"Hmm......" Xia Fenglan couldn't help but groan softly, grabbed Chu Yunxi's hand, and didn't let her go deeper, "No...... Don't ......"
Chu Yunxi smiled, and knew that the time was not right, so he withdrew his hand and seriously helped Xia Fenglan rub his waist.
The force of kneading was neither light nor heavy, it was very comfortable, Xia Fenglan closed her eyes and enjoyed it for a while.
She almost didn't sleep all night, but she soon leaned into Chu Yunxi's arms and fell asleep.
Listening to Xia Fenglan's gradual steady breathing, looking down at her quiet sleeping face, Chu Yunxi's mood gradually calmed down. Feng Lan always has a reassuring power.
The wheels of the car turned slowly, accompanied by rhythmic sounds.
Chu Yunxi leaned on the back seat, also closed his eyes, and rested for a while. When she arrived in Huizhou, she was afraid that there would be constant turmoil, so she had to take care of her spirit and find a way to deal with the people who went down.
The carriage was bumpy on the road for several days, and because the road was in a hurry, everyone ate dry food for several days in a row.
"I knew I was going to have some food to eat first." handed the kettle to Chu Yunxi, who was eating dry food, Xia Fenglan said, "Eat these every day, and when you arrive in Huizhou, people will be a lot haggard." ā
"Even if Feng Lan prepares in advance and lets it go for a day, it will be broken." Taking a sip of the water handed over by Feng Lan, Chu Yunxi said.
"You can only eat less dry food for a day." Xia Fenglan said.
"It's only three days, if Feng Lan finds it unbearable, I will let someone open a small stove for you." Wiping the white crumbs from the corners of Xia Fenglan's mouth, Chu Yunxi smiled.
Xia Fenglan shook her head and said, "Doing this will only make the soldiers feel that you are a person who only knows happiness, which will cause a sense of distrust in the psychology and shake the morale of the soldiers." ā
Pinching the tip of Xia Fenglan's nose, Chu Yunxi smiled: "I, Fenglan, am really smart." ā
"Your Highness, there is no movement from King Jin." Jin Ci stepped forward and reported.
"He was calm, it seems that the queen mother had already mentioned it." Chu Yunxi sneered and said. She specially arranged for the cook to hang in front of King Jin several times, and King Jin was able to endure the small stove.
"Why don't you let people encourage King Jin?" Jin Ci mentions yƬ said.
Chu Yunxi waved his hand and said, "There are some things that are too obvious, and they will be discovered by King Jin." Forget it, anyway, I'm not in a hurry at this time, pay attention to him first, and other things, let's hold on for the time being. ā
"Yes, Your Highness." Jin Ci bowed his head and answered.
On the evening of the third day, the carriage finally arrived outside the city of Huizhou.
Small tents were erected outside the city, where the soldiers sent to suppress the bandits were encamped.
"I've seen King Jing, His Royal Highness King Jin." The soldiers, stepped forward and saluted.
"Get up." Chu Yunxi said.
The moment Wei Duwei saw Xia Fenglan, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Dare to ask Your Highness, who is this person next to you?" ā
"He is the princess of this king." Chu Yunxi glanced at Captain Wei and said. It is no secret that the emperor appointed the princess to travel together. She was on the road for three days, enough news to reach the barracks.
It stands to reason that both the lieutenant and the general have already gotten the news. Now is the time when the military is unstable, and it is not a morale-boosting thing for her to take the princess on a trip, so it is wise for them not to mention it.
But this Wei Duwei, knowing this, still asked Feng Lan's identity in front of everyone, which is worth studying.
"It's ridiculous! Your Royal Highness, with all due respect, this is an expedition to suppress bandits, not to take the princess to play! The old general, General Qi, who was over sixty years old, frowned fiercely, and looked at Chu Yunxi and Xia Fenglan's eyes, which was too bad.
Although he already knew about this matter, but when he saw Xia Fenglan with a beautiful face, he felt more and more ridiculous about Chu Yunxi. It is already very criticized to pamper a wife as an ornament, and now he is still taking this wife to the battlefield!
When King Xing led the troops, he suffered a lot of losses before he could reach a tie with the Liukou. The soldiers here have long been not optimistic about the prince and the princess. Now this King Jing, who is still on the expedition with his family, is ridiculous!
"The general's meaning, this king naturally understands." Glancing at General Liu, Chu Yunxi said, "It's just that it's useless to talk too much now, instead of dwelling on the princess's affairs here, it's better to find a way to deal with the situation in front of you." ā
Chu Yunxi's calmness made General Liu stunned, but King Jing was slightly different from what he imagined.
"The matter of the Liukou, this king is not clear. General Liu, as well as Li Junshi, came to the camp tent in a while to report the matter of the Liukou. Chu Yunxi named the names of the two people, but omitted Wei Duwei.
After arranging a series of things, Chu Yunxi asked people to lead her to the camp tent.
The camp where Chu Yunxi was located was in the very center, a few points larger than the others.
The interior of the tent was very simple, with only living utensils and a small bed. It's enough to sleep alone, but if you want Xia Fenglan to be together, it will be a little crowded.
The people in the barracks were really perfunctory to her, Chu Yunxi touched her chin, and her eyes darkened slightly. Deliberately making things difficult for her in some trivial matters, is it to make her take the initiative to go back? She, Chu Yunxi, is not such an easy person to defeat.
"Your Highness, do you want someone to prepare another bed?" Seeing the inside of the tent clearly, Jin Ci asked.
Chu Yunxi shook his head, "Let's do this today, after three days of driving, the soldiers are also tired." Jinci, can you take care of your accommodation? ā
Jin Ci shook his head and said, "General Liu said that he didn't expect His Royal Highness to bring not only the princess, but also the maids. Don't worry, Jin resigned and stayed in the camp tent of the military prostitute for one night. ā
"The camp of the military prostitute, how can I go?" Xia Fenglan frowned and said. Jin Ci is born well-looking, if he really goes to the camp of a military prostitute, the person who has a big heart will not know why, what can he do with Jin Ci.
"Jin Ci is also a person of His Royal Highness, and no one dares to be bold." Jin Ci smiled.
"That's not going to work either." Xia Fenglan shook her head and said, "You can stay in this tent for a night today." In a moment, you can go and spread a quilt on the ground by yourself, and you will be fine. ā
Jin Ci looked at Chu Yunxi, waiting for her order.
"What Feng Lan said is very reasonable." Chu Yunxi nodded and said, "You can stay here for a night, and it will be more convenient for you to be instructed by this king." ā
"Thank you, Your Highness." Jin Ci said.
"Are the generals and divisions in the tent?" Chu Yunxi asked Jinci.
"Your Highness, you've been waiting." Jin Ci said.
Chu Yunxi nodded, let Xia Fenglan stay in the tent, and went to another tent by herself.
"How's the situation going now?" The map was spread out in front of him, and Chu Yunxi's index finger tapped lightly on it, asking the two people present.
"The Rogue now occupies the southern place. created a lot of traps, and King Xing suffered a lot of losses before. Liukou also grabbed a lot of things a few days ago, and went down the Zhengtong mountain road to go back first. The military advisor said, pointing to a mountain on the map, "This mountain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. ā
"Before they leave the mountain, surround this mountain, and don't let go of a single soldier." Chu Yunxi thought for a while and put a small flag on the mountain, "When the time is ripe, I will attack the mountain." ā
"Didn't Your Highness listen to the military advisor?" General Liu's tone was a little unkind, "This mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and forcibly attacking the mountain will only cost the troops and generals." Besides, the rogues robbed a lot of things a while ago, and now they have enough supplies. If you use the method of encircling the mountain, you will not be able to wait for the other party to exhaust in less than three months. Not to mention March, one month is enough to exhaust the morale of the soldiers besieging the mountain. ā
"It's okay, this king already has a countermeasure," Chu Yunxi said after carefully glancing at the rest of the map.
"Does Your Highness have the confidence to take down the rogue in one fell swoop?" General Liu asked.
"Naturally." Chu Yunxi hooked the corners of his mouth and said.
"It's ridiculous!" General Liu said angrily, "This qiÄ is just a piece of paper for His Highness!" ā
"Liu Wu!" Chu Yunxi snorted, staring at General Liu with a cold gaze, "Here, this king is the commander, you only have the right to do it, and you don't have the right to question this king!" ā
Maybe it was the momentum that Chu Yunxi showed was too powerful, and Liu Wu didn't dare to say another word.
Out of the camp tent, Jin Ci approached Chu Yunxi and whispered in her ear: "Wei Duwei quietly visited the camp of King Jin. ā
"Got it." Chu Yunxi nodded and said.
