Tian Fei was finally escorted back to the Northeast by An Xian and his party under the pressure of Gu Hengzi.

Tian Fei did not return after leaving. Jin Ling and Qi Huan didn't mention the matter of playing again.

After a year of integration, Qi Huan's soldiers and horses were reduced from 600,000 to 500,000.

Leaving 500,000 elite soldiers to cultivate the land, the harvest is quite a lot in a year, not to mention anything else, the military salary can basically be self-sufficient.

Jin Ling also reorganized the soldiers and horses of the original Lu State and Chu State with the help of Qi Huan, and finally left 100,000 elites.

The Liang side did not streamline, but only split and reorganized the soldiers and horses of the previous Wu State and integrated them into the Liang army. There were more Liang soldiers, and they also began to learn from Qi to let the soldiers open up wasteland and farm.

Guangyu lives in the army for most of the year.

Su Changyun passed the scientific examination and entered Beijing as an official, although he was only a waiter in the Ministry of Works, but Xia Chengyou also said that he would be promoted as appropriate in the future.

The wind and rain are smooth, the country is safe, and the people are safe.

Even Concubine Rong, who had always been uneasy before, often discussed parenting with Concubine Xian after giving birth to the second princess.

Since the two concubines gave birth to princesses, no one mentioned the throne for a while.

The front and the harem are harmonious.

The spring sun was shining, and Xia Chengyou ordered to go hunting in the paddock.

The two concubines had to take care of the little princess, and Xia Chengyou only brought the accompanying eunuchs and didn't even bring the palace maids.

Lu Xuan, the right minister, Su Changyun, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and many officials accompanied him.

The spring is bright, and the Cuiwei Mountain is full of good scenery.

Xia Chengyou rode into the forest with a longbow and left everyone behind him half a day later.

In the depths of the dense forest, Xia Chengyou has gained a lot. Just as he was about to go back, he heard a wolf howl. That is, in the blink of an eye, dozens of fierce wolves rushed out and surrounded him.

Xia Chengyou is good at kung fu, but he is not afraid of wolf attacks.

But if he wants to retreat with all his body, he will have to tongue the horses and the prey.

Let the ministers see an emperor who returned empty-handed, Xia Chengyou is difficult to accept.

Xia Chengyou put down his longbow and silently drew his dagger to prepare for a bloody battle with the wolves.

A wolf with a faint green light in his eyes let out a wolf howl at Xia Chengyou's teeth, and soon the other wolves also lowered their bodies, ready to deal a fatal blow to the man and horse in front of them.

Xia Chengyou also saw that the wolf that howled should be the head wolf, and clenched the dagger and prepared to get rid of the head wolf with one blow.

At this moment, only a pleasant flute sound was heard, and the wolves immediately scattered and fled.

A figure dressed in animal skin instantly scurried to the trunk of a tree not far away.

The man was playing a bamboo flute loudly.

The person who came was dressed in animal skin, and his hair was messy, but that full face made Xia Chengyou stunned.

Wild, feminine, charming!

"You saved me? What do you want? I can give it to you! ”

The woman in the tree held the flute, and the melodious sound of the flute suddenly stopped.

The woman didn't speak, just looked at Xia Chengyou vigilantly.

"Don't be afraid!" Xia Chengyou smiled, "I'm Xia Chengyou, the Great Xia Emperor, you should have heard of it...... Why are you here alone? Do you have family? ”

The woman ignored it and turned around and left.

It's better to walk than to run, and she's like a giant monkey shuttling back and forth between the trees.

Xia Chengyou saw the woman walking away, and Lama chased after her.

The woman is twisting and turning. Eventually stopped at a tree branch.

On the branch there is a small wooden hut made of broken branches like a large bird's nest.

"You live here?" Xia Chengyou smiled, "Alone? ”

The woman ignored it, and went alertly into the small wooden house made of branches, and no longer showed her head.

"It's not a human habit!" Xia Chengyou looked up at the messy branch house, "You come with me!" ”

The woman does not answer and does not show up.

"Can you speak?" Xia Chengyou said patiently, "Can you understand what I say?" ”

The woman showed a head from the branch house, looked at Xia Chengyou with a pair of bright eyes, opened her mouth but didn't make a sound, and finally nodded at Xia Chengyou.

Xia Chengyou suddenly smiled: "It's good if you can!" You go back to the palace with me! I promise you'll never have to live in a house like this again. ”

The woman blinked her eyes and looked at Xia Chengyou vigilantly.

Xia Chengyou smiled patiently: "I am the Emperor of Great Xia and the Son of Heaven, I can give you the best thing in the world!" You believe me, come with me, okay? ”

The woman didn't answer, and her eyes kept staring at Xia Chengyou.

"What do you want?" Xia Chengyou smiled, "What do you say?" Aren't you alone living here? What about your parents? Is there anyone else here? ”

The woman shook her head, opened her mouth again, and said with great difficulty, "You...... Deceitful...... My mother said...... Men are liars......"

"How so!" Xia Chengyou hurriedly smiled, "Where is your mother?" ”

"Dead ...... ......," the woman said expressionlessly, "three years ago...... Sick and dead......"

"And do you have anyone else?"

The woman shook her head.

"Are you really unwilling to come with me?" Xia Chengyou stretched out his hand to the woman, "If you don't like men, when you get to the palace, can you be with women?" There are many women in the palace. ”

"Good!" The woman nodded, "I'll go with you!" ”

Xia Chengyou ran into the depths of the dense forest alone, and Lu Xuan and Su Changyun were very worried.

Scattered the men and horses to find them.

Just when it was almost dark, Xia Chengyou returned to the camp with a woman covered in animal skin.

"Met in the woods." Xia Chengyou sat in the big tent and said to Lu Xuan, Su Changyun, and the others, "I met the wolves in the woods, and it was her flute that scared the wolves away. She can listen to me. I saw that she was alone in the woods, so I took her out. ”

The woman has been squatting beside Xia Chengyou since she entered the tent, with her head down. Everyone only saw that what Xia Chengyou brought back was a wild man covered in animal skin and hair like messy grass.

Lu Xuan and Su Changyun also didn't notice the woman's beauty.

Xia Chengyou came back safely, and they all went back to their tents to rest.

"Little Fuzi!" Xia Chengyou said to the little eunuch who accompanied him, "Take her to the bath and let her change into clean clothes." ”

On the second day, Xia Chengyou went to see the woman brought back from the forest early in the morning.

The woman, who had changed into a little eunuch clothes, squatted in the tent, her eyes full of fear.

Her hair had also been combed, and with the little eunuch's blue hat, the woman looked more and more charming.

"What's your name?" Xia Chengyou squatted in front of the woman and asked with a smile, "Can you get used to sleeping in bed?" What do you want to eat? I'll let them do it for you! ”

The woman looked up at Xia Chengyou and opened her lips: "My name is Tiansheng!" ”

"Born?" Xia Chengyou suddenly smiled and said, "Why don't I give you a name called Tianxin?" ”

"Hmm!" The woman nodded, "Tianxin...... The heart of the Son of Heaven? ”

"Yes!" Xia Chengyou smiled, "The heart of the Son of Heaven." ”
