43. Royal Driver's Expedition

Within a few days, quite a few people had already signed up to join the army. I specially appointed Shen Qing as the general of the campaign, and gathered all the soldiers in the shortest possible time. The border is still on alert, and both sides are at a stalemate. Xixia said to give me three days, and if I can't see anyone, I will move my troops.

The border is guarded by Gu Chen's people, so I'm not worried about it for the time being. Three days is enough for Shen Qing to integrate the team.

"Yan Xiaoran, I want to drive the expedition in person." It's the result of a day of struggle. The army has been put together, and it's time for me to play.

Yan Xiaoran looked at me in surprise: "Gu Shu, you have nothing wrong with your brain, right......?" Driving a personal expedition? That's going to the battlefield, not tourism. ”

I nodded: "I know it's a battlefield, that's why I want to go." ”

He put his arms around me: "Why do you want to go?" ”

I rested my chin on his shoulder: "Of course it's for you...... In the name of you, Western Xia wants to invade my Nanling, and if I don't take the personal expedition at this time, I'm afraid my morale will be insufficient. ”

"Then I won't allow it." Yan Xiaoran frowned: "That's to go to war, the battlefield is changeable, you are so stupid, how can I rest assured?" ”

"You're stupid." I tugged at his ear: "If it weren't for your red face, where would Western Xia have an excuse to invade?" ”

"Shu'er, you're too childish." Yan Xiaoran still didn't agree with me going to the battlefield. But I've made up my mind, and at this time, only when I drive in person can I really boost my morale.

I put my arms around his neck and straddled him: "Don't worry, I will protect myself well, you are waiting in the palace for my triumphant return." ”

Yan Xiaoran clasped my waist tightly: "Gu Shu, are you planning to leave me alone?" ”

"Of course, I still want you to help me look at it here." I said softly: "Although my uncle has solved it, but there is still Gu Chen, if he takes advantage of my absence, you can help me solve it." I don't dare to trust others, but you are different, here I can only trust you. I'm suffering from internal and external troubles now, so pitiful...... Are you really willing to see me in a dilemma? ”

"The battlefield is unpredictable, and anything can happen. If you really fight, if you can't see it, you can run, and don't care if the others live or die. After talking for a long time, he finally relented. Actually, we all knew that this time I had to go.

Me: "......" As the emperor, if he takes the lead and runs away, he will be scolded to death by the people. I nodded casually: "Don't worry, I'll be faster than a rabbit when the time comes." ”

"When you come back, if you dare to lose a single hair, I will make it impossible for you to get out of bed." He said, biting my earlobe.

I sneered: "Then do you want to count how many hairs I have on my body now, otherwise I will come back, and you don't know if I am missing." ”

Yan Xiaoran seemed to be waiting for my words: "Okay, I'm going to count it carefully today." ”

Me: "Bastard, we're in the study now. ”

Yan Xiaoran's eyebrows raised slightly: "It's not that I haven't done it in the imperial study." ”

"But......" I bit my lip, my heart itching, but I still refused ruthlessly, "but there will be ministers who will come over to discuss the war." ”

He listened to me, used his hands and mouth, and started what he wanted to do. "Let them wait first...... As long as you don't make a lot of noise, they won't be able to hear you even if they're standing outside. ”

The ministers should be able to come for a while, as long as Yan Xiaoran moves quickly, hmm...... It should also be possible. It's just that Yan Xiaoran, an abrasive goblin, is surprisingly slow this time, and he has been doing foreplay for a long time, and he hasn't seen his next move, as if it was deliberate. I was in a hurry, and I was at his mercy.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Zhongshu, Bai Shilang and a few other adults have already come over, let them in?"

Come in with a ghost! I pushed Yan Xiaoran away slightly, glaring at him while calming my breath: "Let them ...... Forehead...... Let them wait outside for a while. ”

"Yes."

After a **, I felt that a long time had passed, my whole body was exhausted, and I didn't want to receive courtiers anymore. Yan Xiaoran helped me get dressed, and her fingertips gently brushed my lips: "Your Majesty's appearance makes me want to do it again." ”

I slapped his hand away: "You won't be allowed to enter the imperial study in the future!" "It's a net delay for me.

"I'll wait for you in the dormitory." Before he left, he leaned over my lips again.

I rubbed my lips and glared at his back. Yan Xiaoran opened the door: "Ladies and gentlemen, go in, Your Majesty has kept you waiting for a long time...... said, he looked at me shyly, and then left.

This expression, this appearance, people with discernment can guess what has just happened inside.

Me: "......"

Zhao Zhongshu came in and sighed fiercely: "Your Majesty, the old minister knows that you and the queen have a good relationship, but ...... Nor can it ...... This...... What a system this is? ”

I was a little embarrassed and coughed lightly: "Next time, I'll pay attention, don't do such a thing in the imperial study." ”

Everyone: "......"

At night, Yan Xiaoran and I lay in bed, but we couldn't sleep. Maybe tomorrow we're going to be separated, so we don't want to do anything at this time. Counting it up, this is the first time we've been separated since we were together.

I pointed his fingers: "This time I will take 50,000 military horses, and the remaining army will be left to you, in case something happens in the capital." ”

"Forgiveness, I will guard the rear for you."

"Actually...... You don't have to feel guilty and don't care about what others say. I swallowed my saliva and said: "There has long been a gap between the three kingdoms, and this battle will be fought sooner or later." I think even without you, Xixia would have found other interfaces to attack my Nanling. "The situation between the three countries has become like fire and water, starting with my grandfather, the borders of each country have been plagued by other countries.

At first, the forces between the three kingdoms were equal, and I don't know about the other countries, but Nanling was completely because of the disunity of political views, which led to a lot of national power, so that the national strength declined, and it became the most rudimentary of the three countries. It is inevitable that Western Xia will take Nanling first. Saying that I robbed him of his woman is just a good excuse.

And because Xixia made a fuss about Yan Xiaoran, everyone thought that Yan Xiaoran was a disaster for the country, and I thought he should be uncomfortable in his heart.

"Did you see me guilty in that eye?"

Me: "......" Hehe, I forgot, he is Yan Xiaoran.

"Although the national strength of Western Xia is strong, Duan Shuyan has just ascended the throne, and as far as I know, there are two princes who are competing for the throne with Duan Shuyan. Although the two princes were forced down, the remnants were still there. Since you're afraid of a fire in your backyard, it's better to find an opportunity to make his backyard fire as well. Yan Xiaoran said confidently: "You can go to war with peace of mind, I will find a way to let his two brothers stab him in the back." ”

Me: "Tsk, Yan Xiaoran, I take back what I just said." ”

"What?"

"You're a curse...... But it's good that you're mine now. "I said with emotion, Yan Xiaoran is a scourge with a capital letter, if anyone offends him, the end should be miserable.

Yan Xiaoran snorted: "So, no matter what, you have to protect yourself on the battlefield." ”

"Don't worry, my martial arts are still very good." I patted my chest and asked, "However, when Nanling and Western Xia went to war, and the Great Yan Kingdom didn't move at all, is there something wrong?" "I don't shy away from telling Yan Xiaoran about this. When two countries compete, a third party may profit. This is the same as the situation in my Nanling Kingdom before. Thinking of this, my mind flashed: "Could it be that Dayan and Xixia have joined forces?" "It's like Gu Chen and I teamed up.

Yan Xiaoran sneered: "Don't worry about this, the current emperor of Dayan, that is, my imperial brother, has no energy to manage the war between Nanling and Western Xia." ”

"Why, is there any way?" I think it's weird.

"Don't you know that my royal brother is a sick man?" Yan Xiaoran sighed: "Whether he can survive this year is still unknown." ”

I see! I had only heard that Emperor Dayan was not in good health, but I didn't expect this so-called bad to be short. It occurred to me that the agreement between me and Yan Xiaoran at that time. He once said that he would help me seize the power of Nanling, and I would help him become the master of Dayan.

So what now? Is he going back? I turned my head slightly to look at him, and in the darkness I could not see his expression, but I could faintly see his outline, vague but angular. Even though he has been living in the palace with me, he has a clear understanding of the situation in various countries.

"What else to see, hurry up and go to bed, you have to get up early tomorrow." He patted my hand, then reached out around my waist and took me in his arms.

I curled up in his arms and slowly closed my eyes. Yan Xiaoran is ambitious and ambitious, and it is impossible to be my queen in Nanling's harem all the time. Maybe sooner or later he will leave and chase what he wants. I stretched out my hand and hugged his arm back, if one day, Yan Xiaoran really wants to return to Dayan to be the emperor, I will not keep him.

The next morning, Shen Qing and his army gathered at the gate of the city, and I was ready to set off. The mixed feelings in my heart were rippling, and I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Yan Xiaoran sorted out and returned my clothes for me, making me look more powerful. "I'll wait for you to come back safely."

I nodded, "Okay." "Don't talk much, we just know each other.

When I walked out of the hall with the silver sword in hand, the queen mother also came. She didn't agree with me before, but at my insistence, she had no choice. I strode up to the queen mother: "Queen mother, rest assured, the emperor will definitely defend the territory of Nanling." After speaking, I turned around and went up to the high platform, looked at the group of soldiers under the black pressure, and said loudly: "Those who invade my Nanling will be punished even if they are far away!" ”

Yan Xiaoran taught me these words yesterday, and he said that shouting such words is very morale and will definitely inspire people.

Sure enough, a group of soldiers below, each of them shouted excitedly or angrily: "Those who invade my Nanling will be punished even if they are far away!" "This voice is even more inspiring than when I once shouted long live my emperor under the support of the people.

I went down and was about to get on the horse and leave, but Yan Xiaoran chased after me: "Gu Shu!" ”

I turned around, "What are you doing?" ”

He slammed me into his arms, then remembered that I was wrong, and instead kissed me on the lips with a pretended shyness, and buried his head in my arms: "Remember to miss me." ”

I couldn't cry or laugh, and under the gaze of all the soldiers, I gently patted him on the back: "Okay." ”
