Chapter 279: Candidates
"Familiar with the surrounding mountains and scenic spots?" Xiao Xiang muttered and repeated Li Xinchen's question, with a strange look on her face, although she didn't know why her husband would inquire about the news, but she still hurriedly replied, "Over the years, Jiangling City has always implemented the strategy of clearing the wilderness with strong walls, and few people in the city go out of the city to play in the mountains and rivers, so as not to suffer unwarranted disastersΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
After a pause, Xiao Xiang's eyes lit up: "By the way, there is really someone who should meet the requirements of the husband." β
"Huh?" Li Xinchen was stunned, and Xiao Xiang's expression didn't seem right, "What, who is this person, but he is no longer in the city?" β
Xiao Xiang hesitated for a moment, stretched out his finger and pointed to the ground and said, "The concubine's brother, Xiao Jing, the king of Linhai, should meet the criteria that the husband wants to find." β
Li Xinchen immediately understood why Xiao Xiang's expression was wrong, because now Li Xinchen lived in the mansion of Xiao Jing, the king of Linhai. And Xiao Xiang explained:
"Brother Xiao Jing's mansion is next to the mansion of the governor of Jiangling in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the relationship with the previous Jiangling governor Tian Hong is good, the two sides often have contacts, Tian Hong appreciates his poetry and songs, so he heard that his brother is going to go out for tours, so he often sends guards to protect his brother in case of accidents, so my brother goes out to play in the mountains and rivers, but he has never encountered trouble."
Li Xinchen nodded, in this way, he is really destined for this His Royal Highness the King of Linhai. And Xiao Xiang asked tentatively; "Why is the husband looking into this?"
In her opinion, Li Xinchen is definitely not the kind of person who is obsessed with mountains and rivers, and now that the situation is tense, Xiao Xiang can more or less perceive that even if Li Xinchen has just returned from the battlefield, it is impossible for him to sink into the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers.
For Xiao Jing's brother, her understanding is actually just hearsay, and naturally she has no feelings, so compared to Xiao Jing, she is more worried about Li Xinchen.
"In order for one person not to trouble us." Li Xinchen said in a deep voice, immediately realized something, and pointed to the dishes, "Okay, don't talk about this, eat quickly, otherwise it will be cold, and we can't waste it." β
Xiao Xiang knew that Li Xinchen was reluctant to say more, so he nodded hurriedly, and took another chopstick dish: "Husband has worked hard all the way, so you have to eat more." β
Seeing that Li Xinchen ate fragrantly, and didn't seem to take what he just said to heart at all, Xiao Xiang couldn't help but feel a little distracted.
His husband, whether he is deviant or maverick, not to mention himself, I am afraid that there are few people in the whole world who can see through him.
In this troubled world, where can he take himself?
ββββββββββββ-
"Let's go!" A Nan Chen general scolded and pushed the person in front of him.
The man stumbled on his feet, and if he hadn't reached out to hold on to the wall, he would have fallen to the ground. But he knew that if he stopped to take a breath, he was afraid that he would be scolded, so he gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
A bright light appeared in front of me, not the light of a torch shaking, but the solid light of the sun. With a soft exhalation, the man walked out slowly.
No matter who wants to see themselves, and for what purpose, in short, they see the sun.
The man who appeared in front of him was unkempt, his gorgeous clothes had been torn apart, and he could only be said to be barely hanging on his body, his eyes were slightly squinted, obviously not very accustomed to the sun, and the smell from his body made Shen Zunyi, who was born in a family, subconsciously want to cover his nose.
However, seeing that Li Xinchen who was standing on the side did not move, Shen Zunyi hurriedly withdrew the hand that had been raised, he came this time to learn from Li Xinchen and other leaders of the younger generation, especially Li Xinchen led the lone army to fight in Zhangshan County, and blocked Wei Chi Yuan with his own strength, and became a heroic figure in Shen Zunyi's heart.
You can't learn his mental calculations in the short term, but you can learn his every move first.
Shen Zunyi's every move was fully watched by Li Xinchen, but he didn't have more expressions, no matter from what point of view, Shen Zunyi is a trustworthy person, not to mention that Li Xinchen's side, whether it is Xiao Shilian, Pei Zilie and other colleagues, Chen Zhishen and Cao Zhong and other subordinates, they are all out-and-out military generals, and it is really necessary to train a few civilian officials.
Even if you don't need it now, who knows if it will be a help in the future?
"This is Xiao Jing, the king of the sea of Liang Kingdom?" Li Xinchen asked in a deep voice.
"General, you can't be wrong!" The general who escorted the person up hurriedly changed his respectful expression, "This is the person." β
He is just a small general who guards the prisoners, and the person standing in front of him is the first person in the merit book of this great war, and his future is limitless, so he cannot be disrespected. What's more, Li Xinchen led a lone army to defend Zhangshan County, and this great fame came back, who of you heard it didn't give a thumbs up?
That admiration comes from the bottom of my heart.
Stretched out his hand and pushed Xiao Jing, and the general said flatteringly: "Speaking of which, this person was caught by the general." β
Stabbed by this sentence, Xiao Jing seemed to have come to life just now, slowly raised his head, but his eyes were very dilated, and only then did he remember who the voice was just now, and said with a slight tremble: "Li Xinchen? β
For him, this name is a lifetime of shame and shadow.
"Palace, ah no, Brother Xiao is okay?" Li Xinchen stood in front of Xiao Jing with his hands in his hands, looking at him with interest.
Snorted, Xiao Jing didn't say much, and the building standing behind him was about to hit someone, but Li Xinchen stretched out his hand to stop it.
The imperial relatives of Xiliang were rounded up by them in Jinan City last time, and basically no one slipped through the net, so how to place these captives has become a very serious problem. Xiao Maha put the Xiliang Emperor Xiao Yue and a group of concubines under house arrest in the side hall of the front palace.
As for those imperial relatives, naturally there is not so much good treatment, Xiao Yue is at best a disobedient marquis, these imperial relatives are already good if their heads do not roll to the ground, so Xiao Maha did not hesitate to throw them directly into the prison, resulting in the prison cells in Jiangling City being overcrowded for the past two days.
It can also be imagined that the life of this king of the sea is really not very good.
"It's good, it's good!" Xiao Jing's voice was still trembling, but he didn't know if it was because he was angry or afraid.
"Come, please Brother Xiao move." Li Xinchen said with a smile, although he now lives in Xiao Jing's house and hugs Xiao Jing's sister, he doesn't have much good impression of this prince who is clothed in fine clothes and jade food - when he was in Ji Nancheng, this Xiao Jing almost pushed Xiao Shilian who wanted to capture him alive into the fire, and Li Xinchen also remembered this little hatred clearly.
What's more, looking at Xiao Jing's mansion, you can know how luxurious this prince's life is on weekdays.
Xiao Jing took a deep breath, he didn't know why Li Xinchen suddenly dragged himself out alone, but now that people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat, I can't help him.
"Zunyi, go to that new set of clothes and change them for Brother Xiao." Although Li Xinchen still had a smile on his face, in Shen Zunyi's opinion, this smile was a little cold.
