140 Northwest Controversy (2)

Mu An was silent, and carefully looked at the person in front of him.

The man suppressed his anger and saluted Xiao Ci again: "I've seen the prince." ”

Xiao Ci nodded lightly: "Something?" ”

Yang Shuo withdrew his gaze that stayed on Mu An: "I heard that the prince brought the princess to the northwest camp, and the generals were afraid that the hospitality would not be good, so they specially invited the prince and princess to the west camp to the banquet, I don't know if the prince can appreciate his face." ”

"This king is not free", Xiao Ci said coldly: "If there is nothing to do, go back." ”

Yang Shuo choked and continued: "I heard that the prince has formed an archer in the lone wolf army, I wonder if I can have the honor to see it?" ”

"Why, is there no archers in the Western Battalion? Need you to come to Beidaying to see? ”

Mu An couldn't cry or laugh, why did she like such a small speech that didn't give the other party.

As soon as Yang Shuo came over, Mu An felt that he was a little familiar, and after looking at it carefully for a long time, he gradually remembered that this person had appeared frequently by Xiao Kun's side, and he could be regarded as one of the "defeated generals under wine".

No wonder he was very unfriendly as soon as he came in to see his gaze, Mu An probably knew his purpose, the tracking archery method of the Thousand Shooting Team has always been practiced in a relatively closed school field, and the soldiers of the Peking University Battalion are very conscious not to say anything.

can be in the same northwest camp, how could the west camp not notice the movement here, maybe they heard something terrible, and sent Yang Shuo over to investigate.

Yang Shuo was directly choked to death by Xiao Ci's two words, the key is that he didn't dare to make a fortune on Xiao Ci's head, so he could only swallow his anger and swallow it, and said very reluctantly: "If the prince has any good archery skills, he doesn't have to learn behind closed doors. ”

Xiao Ci sneered, his mind?

Over the years, he has never been biased against the Northwest Battalion, although the Lone Wolf Army is his title, but he can protect the capital, he has always thought that the Northwest Battalion can advance and retreat together.

But what did such a selfless mind get in exchange? Half of the veterans of the West Battalion returned to their hometowns, Xiao Jingyan's self-righteous people were all replaced by people he could control, and the dispute between the two battalions became more and more intense, and trying his best to protect the lone wolf army was already his biggest concession.

As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Ci didn't give Yang Shuo a good face, he disdained to communicate with such a person who disturbed military discipline, and coldly dropped a sentence: "Get out!" ”

The anger in his body became agitated, Yang Shuo was stunned, his face was white and red for a while, he knew that the regent was difficult to deal with, but he didn't expect to be so ruthless!

As soon as he gave up his hand, Yang Shuo gritted his teeth and left, and before leaving, he didn't forget to glance back at the Thousand Shots team.

Shi Keng is leading the soldiers to "play with arrows", how tragic and tragic is the scene...... Each holds a bow and shoots and plays, like a child playing at home, which is extremely funny.

Yang Shuo felt a deep insult, frowned, and strode away.

As soon as he left, the Thousand Shooters team immediately got serious and showed Xiao Ci the results of the training in the past few days with the most energetic spirit.

Mu An cautiously saw one-tenth of Xiao Ci's face.

It was only at this time that she realized the extent to which the Northwest Battalion had been divided, and the two enemy armies were generally guarding each other.

Yang Shuo is right, he is also a Liang soldier, why did he come to this point.

Obviously, all this is what Xiao Ci doesn't want to see.

Mu An: "It's not your fault, since ancient times, it has been a problem for every emperor. ”

After a moment of silence, Xiao Ci glanced up at the endless sky above the camp, and whispered: "The Northwest Camp is the home of the Lone Wolf Army, and the West Camp has their brothers who accompany them day and night, it shouldn't be like this." ”

Mu An didn't know how to comfort him for a while, she couldn't wait to drag Xiao Jingyan, who was in the water in her brain, over to apologize to Xiao Ci, and she was at a loss for a long time before she could hold back an ugly smile: "Actually...... If the soldiers of the Western Battalion want to learn the art of tracking arrows, I am willing to teach them. ”

She tried her best to make the relationship between the two parties a little more harmonious, so that she could help Xiao Ci reduce the burden a little.

Xiao Ci looked at her in astonishment, and his voice was a little dull: "Aren't you afraid that one day the arrows in their hands will face thousands of shooting teams?" ”

After a pause, Mu An nodded sincerely: "I'm afraid." ”

"And you're going to teach them?"

"It is those generals who deepen the contradictions, not them", Mu An said word by word: "The soldiers are always innocent, they can't decide their own position, just like you said, when the veterans of the West Battalion are still there, these soldiers also talk and laugh with the lone wolf army, laughing and laughing, they are friends." ”

And in this world, nothing is more important than the word "friend".

"Anyway, they are all soldiers of Daliang, and the weapons in their hands are ultimately used to protect their parents, wives and children, and protect the people of Daliang. Mu An asked rhetorically.

After a while, Xiao Ci suddenly chuckled lowly: "What Madam said is very true, this king is shallow." ”

"Where?" Mu An talked about the matter: "I believe that you have more heart for the world than me, and you can speak coldly to Yang Shuo and others, but once you deal with the soldiers of the Shangxi Battalion, you will still treat them like a lone wolf army." ”

Xiao Ci found that Mu An would always say all the dull words in his heart for him, he could get a confidant in this life, and he was inseparable from himself, what else could he not persevere.

On the way back, Mu An felt that the breath beside him was a little heavy, and suddenly heard Xiao Ci whispering: "Mu An, this king really loves you miserably." ”

The sudden love words were even a little inexplicable, but there was still an electric shock from the back and poked into the spine.

Xiao Ci is not good at words, she knows, and even many times you can't see how much he likes you.

Such a cold person outside wrapped her with the hottest heart, and Mu An blushed - the autumn wind in the northwest camp was a little cold, probably blown by the wind.

For the next two whole days, the generals of the Western Battalion licked their faces repeatedly to investigate Xiao Ci's side, but they were all blocked back by Yan Kuan.

The words are extremely consistent: "The prince is not available." ”

The other party obviously didn't believe it, but Xiao Ci was really not available.

In the tent, Mu An was a little excited, Xiao Ci's fingers were beautifully trimmed, the nails were clean, the palms were dry and warm, most of the time they were different from the cold appearance, the temperature of the palms was high, and Mu An, who had been hot many times, was afraid to avoid them, but now, she wanted to touch these hands again.

She tried again and again, but she still took the initiative to hold it up, staring at him without shame, until the tips of Xiao Ci's ears were slightly red, and she smiled innocently: "Xi Jiuxing can't do it?" What if the envoys of Daqi are not fooled? What is the surname Zheng, it doesn't look like a good person, Jiang Xue has to give him face, who is it? ”

"Zheng Zonglin", Xiao Ci was silent for a moment before he spoke again: "The henchmen around Queen Qi, the deep favor of Queen Qi, the name of a national teacher, is used to tinkering with some cruel and vicious methods, which is not easy to deal with. ”

Thinking of that person's extremely cold face and gloomy demeanor, Mu An shivered in broad daylight and sneered: "Queen Qi is really good at picking pearls in stones, this kind of person is impure at first glance, and staying by his side and reusing it will sooner or later backfire on him." ”

Xiao Ci: "He knows Kyushu Lu, Empress Qi believes in some unknown cults, I don't know where to get a piece of Kyushu Lu, and it is understandable to reuse it for him." ”

Mu An said in a gentle voice: "Then we can only wait for Xi Jiu's news." ”

On the official road outside the northwest camp, the tea shacks on the side of the road were random and simple, and a group of passers-by in plain clothes asked for a few catties of beef and a pot of wine, occupying the most spacious table in the corner.

pulled a mouthful of tasteless jerky, the innermost person's hat covered half of his face, raised his head slightly, and swept around the tea shed with deep eyes, and finally stopped on the calm and unmanned official road.

"General, will they take a detour?"

Making a gesture of silence, Xi Jiu whispered: "Don't call the general." ”

The young soldier next to him immediately shut up and nodded.

Their table was Xi Jiu and his party, dressed as passers-by, waiting for the rabbit here.

But I have been waiting for nearly an hour, and there has been no movement on the official road.

"The envoys of Great Qi left Beijing today and went to Great Qi, this is a must-pass place?"

"Wait a little longer", Xi Jiu pinched the rough bowl and frowned slightly: "Be leisurely for a while, don't show your stuffing." ”

A table of people shouted in unison: "Yes." ”

After about half a pillar of incense, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near.

Xi Jiu lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "It's here." ”

Sure enough, everyone looked back, and the envoys of the Great Qi stopped at the door of the tea shed.

Zheng Zonglin's narrow eyes narrowed, and the corners of his lips, which were born with a weird "smile", were upturned very unnaturally, and he seemed to notice Xi Jiu and the others in the corner at a glance.

The guard next to him led the horse, raised his head and respectfully asked for his opinion: "My lord, do you want to rest here?" ”

Zheng Zonglin retracted the gaze that fell on Xi Jiu and his party, turned over and dismounted, and said sideways: "Wait until we will continue to hurry, let everyone come down and rest." ”

He went to the door and sat down, and Xiao Er of the tea shed was alone in the wind, and shouted: "Here, all the guest officers drink some hot tea to warm up." ”

A large Qi guard urged a few plates of side dishes, and the group tied their horses and sat down.

"My lord, are we going back like this?"

Zheng Zonglin's face was embarrassed: "Otherwise? ”

The envoy laughed dryly, looked at Zheng Zonglin's demeanor, and whispered: "The princess doesn't take the words of the adults to heart at all, and insists on going her own way, not only have we innocently broken a few people, but even the spies who have gradually stabilized their roots before have been served by the princess regent, and now they are going back in disgrace, I am afraid that it will displease the queen." ”

Zheng Zonglin clenched his fists, and his fingers "gurgled": "The princess is so stubborn, it will be a big disaster." ”

Thinking that Jiang Xue was obsessed with Xiao Ci, perfunctory to his instructions, and that he was imprisoned in Jiufangju, so that his news could not be transmitted, Zheng Zonglin was furious.

A guard guarding outside hurriedly ran in: "My lord, Miss Mu is so panicked in the carriage that she wants to come out and sit with your lord." ”

Zheng Zonglin raised his eyes coldly: "Go, call Mu Qingqing out." ”
