King Qin left, and when he left, Princess Pingyang asked him to take more than 3,500 captives to escort Chang'an together. Xue Lang was a little regretful, he also planned a lot of work for these captives to do, and now this plan has failed.

However, it is not incomprehensible. For the Tang Empire, which was established at the beginning, the anti-kings were actually not a big threat, and the biggest threat was the Turks.

The Turks can almost be said to be soldiers and skilled in bows and horses, and they are simply the enemy of life and death for the Tang Dynasty, which was the foundation of the country. In particular, it has recently been invaded by the Turkic Jieli Khan and plundered Yanmen. Although Jieli was victorious, in the end, due to the situation, he still negotiated peace with Jieli, and could not take advantage of the victory to pursue.

The battle of Weize Pass was brilliant, and the captured prisoners were directly escorted to Beijing, which still had a positive effect on boosting the morale of the people and morale.

I think the court also needs to have a statement-

It was not that there was no spare strength to fight against the Turks, and the two wars against the Turks at the end of the year were won by the imperial court! The imperial court had an advantage over the Turks.

Compared with this big goal of the imperial court, Xue Lang's purpose of using captives as labor is simply insignificant, although it is regrettable, but it is not incomprehensible.

The post-war affairs have been dealt with in the past few days, and Xue Lang plans to move back to the princess's mansion, to be honest, he misses the spacious big bed in the Tingfeng Courtyard a little.

There weren't many things to bring back, just rolls and official papers. After sending the queen of Qin, he returned to the barracks and asked Changjian to pack up the cover rolls for him, and he sorted out the paperwork himself.

It took an hour to finish tidying up, and he was about to put it in a wooden box and ask Wan Fulai to help him transport it back in a carriage, when the personal soldiers around Her Royal Highness the princess came to pass the word: "Counselor Xue, the general invites you to go back to the house, there is something to discuss."

"Got it, I'll go over right away."

Xue Lang agreed, and ordered Changjian casually: "I have packed up my things, let Wanfu come and move back, and I will go back to the house to see His Highness first." ”

"Whoa."

Ride back home in this weather...... Xue Lang thinks he's really good!

The oncoming swishing breeze seems to be pervasive and drills into the collar, and it is obviously wrapped in a thick fur coat, but it still feels cold! As a person who has lived in the south for a long time, I really want to say -

it! Why is it so cold!

With a scarf covering his face and only his eyes exposed, and a fur hat on his head, he returned home against the light wind, and before he got close to the gate, he was reprimanded by the guard: "Who is coming?" ”

Xue Lang was speechless, pulled the scarf, and showed his face: "It's me." ”

The guard had an expression on his face that he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh: "It turned out to be Counselor Xue, who was presumptuous, and his duty lies, please forgive Counselor Xue." ”

Xue Lang covered half of his face again, didn't want to speak, waved his hand directly, dismounted and went directly into the house, however, he didn't want to make the guards nervous again, Xue Lang still showed his face, and the rest was tightly wrapped.

At the gate of the backyard, Twilight Xue was already waiting there, seeing Xue Lang wrapped like a hairball, she couldn't help but smile: "Counselor Xue, Your Highness is waiting for you in the courtyard, please come with the slave."

Xue Lang was a little embarrassed by the laughter, and arched his hand: "I'm tired of Miss Twilight." ”

I took the scarf off!

Follow Twilight Snow all the way in—

Her Royal Highness the Princess's backyard, so far, Xue Lang has not been here, this is the first time. In the past, Su Han, in his identity as a doctor, could have the opportunity to come in and see Her Royal Highness the Princess. Even if His Royal Highness King Qin came down, he only came in to visit Princess Pingyang, and after reading it, he still had to go back to the outer courtyard to rest.

Her Royal Highness the princess has such regular rules, Xue Lang naturally knows to respect and abide by them, and follows behind the twilight girl all the way without squinting, passing through an arch and reaching the inner courtyard.

In the precincts, there are many plum blossoms, including red and white plums. Her Royal Highness the Princess was wrapped in a white cloak with a silver-white fur edge, standing under a red plum tree, and a little red plum reflected the silver and white of Her Royal Highness the Princess, which was very beautiful.

I always knew that Her Royal Highness the princess was good-looking, but in the past, she wore plain clothes, which was not as amazing as the feeling of standing under the plum today.

Hawkers, sure enough, there is an essential difference between good-looking people and bad-looking people. Judging people by their appearance, they lose their sons. Xue Lang, you have to remember, remember.

"Youyang is here?"

Xue Lang was still thinking divergently, compared to the Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers, Princess Pingyang had already noticed it, turned around, and opened her mouth to ask.

Xue Lang came back to his senses and hurriedly saluted: "My subordinates have seen His Highness." His Royal Highness's injuries are not healed yet, why did he come out? If you are cold, you are more likely to get rheumatism in the future. Your Highness, please come into the house, and I will stand outside the house and speak to Your Highness. ”

Princess Pingyang glanced at him and said, "Lying down all day, my body is uncomfortable, and Su Yiling also said that walking around more will be good for my recovery." ”

Xue Lang tirelessly persuaded: "That's also walking around in a warm place, how can you come out when the weather is so cold?" Your Highness, go inside. ”

If it weren't for the difference between men and women, I really wanted to go over and help people in person.

Chu Xue took the opportunity to persuade: "Lady, come into the house quickly." ”

Princess Pingyang said: "That's it, look at your posture, as if I am fragile, I will enter the house." ”

As he spoke, he finally turned around and walked into the house. There was a charcoal basin burning in the house, but it was much warmer. Princess Pingyang sat down on a couch, asked someone to put a futon sewn from fur, and motioned, "Youyang come and sit." ”

Xue Lang was already mentally prepared to blow the cold wind, and when he heard the call of Her Royal Highness the Princess, he couldn't help but look up at everyone, and saw that there was nothing unusual on everyone's faces, so he went over and sat down: "Your Highness sent me here, what do you command?" ”

Princess Pingyang said: "It's not a big deal, but there is one thing to inform Youyang." ”

Speaking of this, he actually paused. Xue Lang asked tentatively, "Does Your Highness want to tell me that you are going back to Chang'an?" ”

Princess Pingyang bowed: "Exactly." Youyang needs to know in his heart and be prepared. ”

Xue Lang nodded, indicating that he understood.

If it is his daughter, leading the army to guard the pass and fighting against the enemy and is seriously injured, no matter how important that pass is, the father will only want his daughter to return to a comfortable and safe place to recuperate, and will never let his daughter be in danger again.

Xue Lang secretly thought about the matter at hand, and said, "Your Highness, everything else is easy to say, how to deal with Xiong Zhenjun and the farm?" ”

Princess Pingyang said: "The farm is in my name, and it is also used by my people, where I am, where I am built, there is no need to leave it to those who come after." As for Xiong Zhenjun...... I am the princess of the Kaifu, and I want to replace all the Xiong Zhenjun with the soldiers of the palace. ”

This is to make Xiong Zhenjun her private army!

Xue Lang gave a thumbs up without hesitation and agreed. Her Royal Highness the princess is not the kind of person who forgets selfishness for the public, and she still has a sense of proportion in her heart, Xue Lang said that with this kind of boss, it is easy to do things and live.

Princess Pingyang was speechless at Xue Lang's thumb, and looked at him with a smile, but didn't say anything.

Xue Lang said: "Since His Highness already knows it in his heart, then his subordinates will rest assured." By the way, do you want to take all the sweet potatoes and potato seeds I have prepared? ”

Princess Pingyang groaned a little and said, "You can leave half of the sweet potatoes and take all the potatoes away." ”

"Whoa."

Xue Lang asked all the questions he cared about. Her Royal Highness said: "Although my injuries have improved, I can't go far, and I still need some time to recuperate. Just take your time. There's just one thing...... It's about Pingyang, and I don't have an idea for a while, so please teach me from Youyang. ”
