The beauty is gone, but the fragrance remains.

He Ran, who was tired and comfortable, stared at the top of the tent with two eyes, and couldn't stop thinking in his heart.

Xiping came out to grab food, for the southwest of this vast area of Yi and Kang are more than enough at the moment, staying in the country is bound to be Xiping, where in the future will be in the country, Yi country, Kang country, Qi country under the tiger's eye, stay in the country to take it, then the country has great benefits, Xiping to take it is difficult to say, if you don't get it well, it will become a burden.

It was quite interesting for the Son of Heaven to send a secret envoy to the northwest region, and he wanted to travel between Kang and Yi to make profits. The matter over there in Xiping must be told to Mo Ju, what about the matter on the Son of Heaven's side? He Ran's eyes blinked again and again, and after weighing it repeatedly, he decided that it was better not to say it, and the reason was also very simple, the Son of Heaven had the intention of swaying, indicating that he saw that Yi Guo already had the strength to compete with Kang Guo at this time, and wanted to use Yi Guo's power to slowly get rid of Kang Guo's control, which was not a bad thing for Yi Guo, at least he could avoid being troubled by the "Edict of the Son of Heaven" in the future. Mo Ju was very jealous of the new policy, and he had to guard against the day when the two countries had opposing goals.

Will Mo Ju allow the lion of the Son of Heaven to open his mouth? There is no doubt about this, he definitely doesn't want the country to be too strong, let alone the country of Yi to form a border situation. The question is, what excuse can he find to refuse? Would he have thought that the Son of Heaven had secretly come into contact with Yi Guo? If that is the case, he will have to consider Yi Guo's position when replying to the request of the Son of Heaven, and his overbearing behavior will inevitably make Yi Guo dissatisfied.

He turned over and continued to think, since Mo Ju might think that the Son of Heaven had contact with him, should he insist on hiding it from him? After thinking about it for a while, he made up his mind and hid it! Since he puts the interests of Kangguo first in everything, he can't ignore the interests of Yiguo. He originally planned to go to Kangying to see Mo Ju in person tomorrow, but at this moment he changed his mind and decided to just send a subordinate to inform him of the inside story of the Xiping envoy.

He closed his eyes, but it was difficult to feel sleepy, and he couldn't help but start thinking about the world pattern after the destruction of Zhao, the more he thought about it, the more difficult it was to sleep, and he felt quite irritable in his heart, and he really hoped that he could get rid of the burden on his body as soon as possible and no longer be bothered by these things. Immediately calculated Qi Min's itinerary, estimating how long it would take her to arrive, and after seeing her, he could return to the court, and then he could confidently push all these troubles to Shi Lang.

It seems that Qi Min did not invite Su Pingjiang to Jingqu City to meet, that is, as Huang Wan said, Qi Min came mainly to see himself, He Ran was happy in his heart, he had already felt disappointed by Qi Min's affection, so he cherished this rare meeting more and more, and carefully calculated how to make her happy, how to be worthy of her journey.

In the joyful waiting, Kang Guo finally sent the news that the Queen Mother's royal car was only two hundred miles away from Jingqu City, and he was invited to Gulu City to meet him three days later. This Gulu City is almost a hundred miles away from Jingqu City, and it is a big city in the north.

He Ran thought that she would come to Jingqu City, but then she thought about it, she was not thoughtful, as the queen mother, she did not have the reason to go to the other party's territory to meet a military advisor, and this kind of summoning was reasonable. Thinking about this section, he couldn't help laughing, and he didn't blame Xu Tong for saying that he didn't distinguish between public and private, and that he sometimes thought about things because of selfishness and forgetfulness.

was about to see the beautiful woman he had missed for a long time, he hummed a little song with joy, and at this time Huang Wan walked in, seeing him like this, he stood still and looked at him with a slight smile and a thin eyebrow.

Seeing that she was holding the letter in her hand, He Ran asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Huang Xuan, the staff officer of the Chinese army, has now become a newspaper officer, and everyone knows that she and the military adviser are well-known, so all the bureaucrats are happy to have fun, and let her go in to report anything, in terms of grade, she is considered low among these people, only obey the fate, and know in my heart that they are very kind, and they are very embarrassed at first, and then they don't care. He Ran was very appreciative of what his subordinates did, and for this reason, he specially rewarded them with a few jars of good wine behind Huang Wan's back.

"What made the adults happy to bubble their noses?" Huang Wan handed him the letter in her hand.

"A mouth is revealing something that is not!" He Ran took the letter, but he still subconsciously wiped it under his nose with his sleeve.

Huang Wan covered her mouth and smiled.

He Ran opened the letter, and couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it, and said, "There is finally news!" He looked at it carefully.

The letter was written through a barrel, in addition to reporting the current situation in Linchuan, it also emphasized the border of the remaining soldiers, saying that it was to quell the chaos for the Zhao State, and the number of soldiers and horses that could be ascertained was 10,000. He judged that the retention of the army was under the guise of quelling the chaos, but in fact it was to occupy the Baili Zhao land sandwiched between Liuguo and Linchuan.

He Ran saw that a stone that had been hanging in his heart fell to the ground, Linchuan finally did not have any big mess, and stability can be expected, as for the intention of staying in the army, he agreed with the judgment of wearing a barrel, and in the face of the temptation of interests, the king of Liu, who couldn't help but answer shyly, took a piece of land in Zhao State.

He Ran summoned the messenger and inquired again, and then wrote a letter back to him to take back.

After there were only two people left, Huang Wan said slowly: "Say, what is it that makes you like this?" ”

He Ran smiled: "I'm happy in my heart, I just thought of letting the general be the matchmaker, and let him propose to you in two days." ”

"Phew!" Huang Wan took a sip, "The lie is open, I heard that Kang Guo just sent someone here, if the guess is right...... can make you so happy, I'm afraid the news sent is about the Empress Dowager Kang." Her voice was still slow, but her eyes swept around his face with agility.

"Really...... Intelligent! He Ran exaggerated his tone of praise, and then said seriously: "Of course, I am happy that she is coming, but what can make me happy is the thought that I can quickly get in and out of the right pair with you." ”

"Phew!" Huang Wan couldn't help but smile and spat again, "It's really 'flamboyant, frivolous and debauched', this is a good word, but I really can't wait to ...... your hated face." She said with a fierce glare, and her jade hand pinched.

He Ran laughed and said: "When I tell the truth, no one believes me, I don't believe it, I am often misunderstood, and I am not chilled." ”

Huang Wan couldn't suppress the smile on the corner of her mouth and asked, "When will she arrive?" I'm also looking forward to meeting this brilliant queen mother. ”

"Come to Gulu in three days, let me see you there."

"Take me there."

He Ran grinned and said: "Don't go, she has always been conceited, if you see a more beautiful woman in the world than her, she will definitely be jealous, she has come from afar, don't make her unhappy." ”

Huang Wan smiled and pinched him, and then said: "When I get to the realm of other people, I have to take precautions, I can't rest assured, if you think I'm an eyesore, I can change into men's clothes, and I am more confident in martial arts than they are still stronger." ”

He Ran pinched her jade cheeks gratefully, and said, "Don't worry about this, don't say that I have been kind to her, even if there is no previous thing, she can't do anything to me, otherwise I will be despised by the world." ”

"That's what I said, and that's the reason, but I still can't feel at ease, so you just let me follow."

He Ran hugged her, kissed her on the forehead affectionately, and said: "Wait here obediently, it won't be long before I come back, I will explain carefully to the general, during the Gulu period, I will send someone back every day to report the news, as soon as the news is broken, the general will immediately raise troops and dignitaries, under the pressure of our army, they dare not let me come back, our troops here are far superior to the Kang army, and the cavalry is the majority, if it really fights, the Empress Dowager Kang can't run away." ”

Huang Wan said worriedly: "Can you not go?" Or choose a place to meet between the two armies, the woman's mind is the most difficult to guess, and she doesn't care about anything, I'm not trying to provoke the relationship between the two of you, it's really ......"

He Ran pinched her cherry lips and said softly, "I understand, I'll go to the general and make the most careful arrangements." ”
