Therefore, it was inferred from this that Ling Xingyue must not have eaten lunch properly, so Xiao Haozi took it upon himself to choose a few small snacks for Ling Xingyue that were not so sweet and greasy and could satisfy hunger, so that Ling Xingyue could eat a few bites at any time and drink tea at the same time, so that Ling Xingyue would not endure hunger to listen to Steward Liu's account again.

In addition, in the past few years of entering the grassland, this is also the first time that Steward Liu has taken Liu Qi to stand at the gate of the little prince's courtyard so quietly and solemnly for so long, there must be a very important and important matter to discuss with the little prince.

For such an important matter, the time for discussion must not be too short, so Ling Xingyue definitely needs to eat a few pieces of dim sum to satisfy his hunger, and Xiao Haozi didn't want to interrupt the conversation between the three of them because of his own entry, let alone hear things that he couldn't hear because of his sudden entry, so he deliberately stepped into the gate of the small courtyard with heavy steps to remind Ling Xingyue and remind Steward Liu that the two of them, I, Zhao Hao, came in to deliver tea, and I didn't have the slightest intention of secretly listening to you to discuss important matters in detail.

When the three of them saw Xiao Haozi holding the tea tray in his hand and bending down at the door, he simply saluted him, and then his steps suddenly lightened, and quietly sent the tea to the three of them one by one, and deliberately placed a few small plates of fruit and snacks on the table next to Ling Xingyue sitting, and then pinched the tea tray and gave a simple salute, and then retreated gently, and did not forget to close the door of the small courtyard when he left the gate of the small courtyard, and then heard Xiao Haozi cough a few times from a distance, and there was no other sound.

Ling Xingyue secretly praised Xiao Haozi for his meticulousness and appropriateness in her heart, and Steward Liu couldn't help but turn her head and look at Liu Qi, both of them nodded slightly, it seems that it is a very clear choice to let Xiao Haozi, a clever kid, be in the prince's courtyard.

Now I heard Zhao Hao standing a little farther away from the school gate and looking at the gate of the small courtyard of the little prince, so that cough was a reminder that you can rest assured that you can discuss important matters with confidence, and no one will enter the courtyard at will.

Steward Liu sat on the chair, and after Ling Xingyue took a sip of tea, he was about to take Liu Qi to kneel down and return to the important things they wanted to tell, but Ling Xingyue raised his finger slightly, stopped them from kneeling in the void, and said a word in a low voice:

"Say."

Steward Liu sat down on the chair at this time, leaned his upper body slightly forward in the direction of Ling Xingyue, and then said in a low voice:

"Little prince, we have been here in this grassland pasture for more than half a year, and you originally needed to go to the current saint for the New Year every year, but this year due to special reasons, the emperor did not have a holy decree to send you to see you, so our house was able to live a relatively peaceful year, plus you were trapped on the top of the mountain at the end of the year, so I didn't have time to report this matter to you."

Ling Xingyue heard that what Steward Liu was going to tell was actually related to the current saint, so she stopped drinking tea, and also placed the small snack in her hand in the bone jade disk, her eyes blazing and waiting for Steward Liu's next narration:

"Well, you go on."

Steward Liu looked back at Liu Qi again, only to see Liu Qi slowly get up from the chair, take a few steps forward, and come to a place about a foot square away from Ling Xingyue before standing, bowing down to Ling Xingyue and saying in a low voice:

"Little prince, before my father and I came to the grassland ranch, because we couldn't rest assured that the current saint would make any will to the palace next, it was also to get what the sacred heart thought as soon as possible, so that our palace could be prepared, and at that time, it was also just in case, so that you could have a way out, so my father and I planted eyeliner next to the saint.

They will take the opportunity to pass on all matters related to you in the palace to me through the palace's close confidants and flying pigeons.

This matter was done secretly by me and my father, and I did not ask the little prince to show it, so if there is a case in the future, the matter is exposed, my father and I will definitely be killed, and it will definitely not involve the little prince in the slightest, but after all, this matter is arbitrarily arranged by me and my father, and now all the reports are reported to the little prince, and I hope that the little prince can forgive. ”

After Liu Qi finished speaking, he had already knelt down on his knees, his forehead fell to the ground, and he bowed down in front of Ling Xingyue's chair, Ling Xingyue was indeed shocked after hearing this, but it turned out that Steward Liu was such a thoughtful person, and after all, they must have made so many arrangements for themselves, and now there must be something related to them, so they are willing to tell themselves and the plate about this matter, otherwise, these two people will definitely not say it until they die for the safety of the little prince.

Ling Xingyue looked at Steward Liu and Liu Qi protecting herself so much, and couldn't help but be moved in her heart, as soon as she stretched out her hand to personally help Liu Qi up, and let him sit on the chair next to a few tables to reply, Liu Qi hurriedly knelt down again, and said again and again:

"Liu Qi doesn't dare, how can this be made?!"

Ling Xingyue was no longer reluctant, so she invited Steward Liu to come over and sit, and only let Liu Qi stand beside her, which was also for the convenience of the conversation, so the two listened and gathered around Ling Xingyue.

Steward Liu first sighed softly, and then said to Ling Xingyue with a solemn face:

"Yesterday, Liu Qi received a secret report from the flying pigeon, saying that the reason why the current saint did not recruit you to return to Beijing to report on your work is because just in the distance of our grassland border, there is a country named Wara, they seem to want to harass and annex the largest and fattest pasture of the current dynasty, which is now the "Lanke Ranch", and they even want to deliberately start a war, the purpose is also against the current "Lanke Ranch", and the current Shengshang does not seem to want to expand the situation, but he also wants to deter this small country of Warat, so that it does not vainly try to provoke the Ming Frontier. Otherwise, the people on the border will inevitably be ruined again, and the current peaceful and prosperous era will be ruined, so that I will be limited to the surrounding wars, destroying the people and losing money. ”

After saying this, Steward Liu turned his face again, the worry on his cheeks became heavier, and he said to Ling Xingyue:

"Now, after consulting with several important ministers, the Holy Lord decided to send you to exterminate this evil army of Warat that harassed the border, but he was unwilling to send a large group of men and horses with you, so as not to move the foundation of the country too much.

In short, I want you to take the original soldiers on the grassland, plus the soldiers of several towns around the grassland such as Mengba County, to counterattack the attack of Warat around the grassland, and it is best to catch them off guard and let them know that even the generals of a few small towns on the grassland of the Ming Dynasty are enough to make your soldiers defeated and break away from the border. ”
