When the words landed, the soldiers in the barracks all interrupted each other, laughed, and Su Jiao was also infected and smirked very politely, and then pulled Xiao Huai'an's sleeve and whispered next to his ear that was close to him.

"This great prince. It doesn't look like it's very smart. ”

Xiao Huai'an couldn't help but silence Su Jiao, so he asked Mu Hibiscus to come over and take her to the barbecue, and after all the people around the fire he was sitting on were gone, he suddenly got serious, and said thoughtfully while poking the charcoal in the fire with a wooden stick.

"In the capital, only the second prince and the third prince have started a family, and the aunt in the third prince's mansion has confirmed that she is pregnant, if there is no deviation, presumably after October, she will be able to give birth to the first eldest grandson of my dynasty."

"Really? That's a good thing. Xu Ruchi opened his mouth in surprise, and then there was no other expression, Xiao Huai'an withdrew the wooden stick, and knocked the part of the stick head that was burned into black charcoal on the ground a few times, and a few sparks that were not extinguished jumped out and fell to the side of the place, and returned to darkness again.

"Your Highness really has no intention of returning to the capital, if you don't work hard, I'm afraid that the rest of your life can only be spent in this military camp."

"I should have been accompanied by swords and swords in my life, and I am not interested in the deception in the capital, so I have to fight by themselves." Xu Ru smiled shallowly, his face was very plain and even disdainful. When he was young. I have also seen the intrigue between some concubines in the palace, and it must be for this reason that I want to stay away as much as possible no matter what.

"I'm just sad that the Zhongyi Hou family has worked hard for me, but I have been framed by people many times, I also thought about helping to investigate, but there is no gain, and I really can't help, this time you and your wife are going to Nankang, but you must remember to investigate carefully, and strive to return a clean slate as soon as possible."

Most of the land in the north is desert mountains and forests, and the marginal line under the jurisdiction of the eldest prince is just right with the mainland, even if he wants to investigate, the clues collected by Yang Fu Jian are all made by people through sea trade and ships transported to each other, and they are really not within his scope.

Thinking about it like this, Xiao Huai'an became more and more silent, Xu Ruchi said, and felt that the atmosphere at this time was too solemn, so he cheered up again and handed the chicken wings that were baked at his feet to Xiao Huai'an.

"There are many mountains and forests here, and you can find a lot of prey when you go hunting from time to time, and you must be tired of staying in the capital on weekdays, how about tasting the game on our side."

Xiao Huai'an came back to his senses, and noticed that Su Jiao and the others were also looking at this side with some concern, so he cleared his throat and accepted the kindness of the eldest prince, "Then thank you Your Highness, although it has just entered autumn, but this day is cold and fast, the eldest prince and his soldiers must also pay attention to saving more food and fur to prepare for winter." ”

"This is natural, I have been here for ten years, how can I still tell you to tell me again, today's wine is for you to practice, tomorrow's departure, but you must remember to be more careful, if you have trouble, go early and return early."

Xu Ruchi laughed and said, soon, this banquet can be regarded as reaching a climax, and many soldiers came up to perform dances or sword dances on a whim, which can be regarded as fun in suffering.

The soldiers on all sides were also very harmonious, and Su Jiao was also very happy with such an atmosphere, and she slept until dawn the next day, and she didn't know how she fell asleep.

When she woke up with her drowsy head on her hands, she found herself lying on the passenger ship to Nankang.

"Awake?" Xiao Huai'an sat next to the window, and the window cut into a round shape made people feel like they were traveling on the sea.

It's just that he still has the same black clothes on his body as always, except for the difference between the dark flower and the belt, which almost makes Su Jiao unable to see any difference.

Su Jiao yawned and staggered to Xiao Huai'an's side, but she didn't want the hull of the boat to shake accidentally at this time, so that she would be planted all at once.

Xiao Huai'an hurriedly reached out and hugged her waist, trying to stabilize her figure, but she didn't think that Su Jiao took advantage of this bumpy movement, turned half of her body, and happened to sit on Xiao Huai'an's lap, so as to save herself in case her knees hit some table and stool and hurt herself.

Xiao Huai'an suddenly froze, and the hibiscus outside the door of the room listened to the movement inside, and pushed the door in a hurry, wanting to serve Su Jiao to groom and wash her hair, but he didn't expect to see this scene, and without waiting for Xiao Huai'an to get angry, he quickly closed the sliding door again.

"Madame, you're awake! I'll come back later. ”

Xiao Huai'an gasped, he didn't know what to do with hibiscus, and what was even more troublesome was that Su Jiao was sitting in his arms, or he had never had an experience, which made him feel a little at a loss.

Su Jiao may have drunk more wine yesterday, although she woke up this morning, she was still dazed, and the uncomfortable energy caused by the hangover had not passed, so she simply nested in Xiao Huai'an's arms like a kitten, smelling the faint lemon fragrance, and felt very relieved.

Xiao Huai'an went out very early every day, and never knew that Su Jiao had just woken up for a while, and his consciousness could not recover immediately, and he couldn't help but regret a little that he should have stayed for a while some time ago.

Su Jiao turned her face sideways and buried her whole face on Xiao Huai'an's shoulder, feeling the breeze blowing from the window wrapped in the faint smell of sea water and the temperature of the sun to ruffle her broken hair. A faint fragrance of osmanthus fell on Xiao Huai'an's face, feeling very pleasant.

When she got up in the morning, Su Jiao hadn't combed her hair yet, although she had always liked the feeling of naturally draping her hair, so she simply relied on Xiao Huai'an's arms for a while, which also made him suffer for so long.

"Well, what time is it now?" After a long time, Su Jiao came back from the fugue world leisurely, she rubbed her worried eyes, although her mind was awake, but her spirit was still dazed.

Xiao Huai'an stood up calmly, but his face was a little ugly, "It's noon, let the hibiscus come over to clean up for you, and prepare for lunch, you should be able to arrive in Nankang in the evening." ”

"It's only a day, and this waterway is so fast. Where are you going? Su Jiao rubbed her head, but Xiao Huai'an didn't respond at all, and walked away in a hurry.

Then Mu Hibiscus came in with Mu Rong, who was also happy to watch the excitement, and asked Su Jiao to comb her hair with such a strange smile on the two of them, and after a few of them played on the boat and grabbed stones, the passenger ship had already arrived at the port of Nankang.

By the time the labor fees for the passenger ship had been taken care of and the night's accommodation had been arranged, it was almost time for the sun to set.

Although it is now autumn, it will indeed be later and faster, but at this hour, it still makes people feel a little sleepy, but Su Jiao has not any sense of sleepiness at all because she has slept on the boat for a long time during the day, but she is still in good spirits.

"Lord and Madame, please come here, Yang Hou and their mansion were here before, my lord is inevitably in a hurry, some of us haven't even prepared yet, it's really too late to clean up a new house and mansion for the two of you, so we have to aggrieved the two of you to stay here for a while, we will send a letter to inform the palace immediately, and tomorrow your lord will be able to see Your Majesty."

came in such a hurry, thinking that he would deliberately be caught off guard in order to get more horses and clues. The diplomatic receptionist at the port in the southwest greeted Xiao Huai'an and Su Jiao very warmly, but there seemed to be a little panic in his eyes.

Xiao Huai'an saw it in his eyes, and he wrote down the appearance of this person, swept the mansion, and listened to his words, so he turned around and gave another sentence.

"No need, this official is here to check on the recent situation of Nankang, if necessary, the DPRK and China will consider sending a new ambassador to come, and the Japanese official will naturally go to see His Majesty Nankang in person, and you don't have to send someone to run this trip."

Before the receptionist finished speaking, Xiao Huai'an had already instructed him, although he was a little surprised, but he was not disobedient, he obediently agreed, and led Xiao Huai'an to turn around the mansion, and then hurriedly took people away.

Nankang's house has such a characteristic, the courtyard is full of mud roads, look at this slightly dusty feeling.

The structure of the house is very similar to that of the Wa Kingdom, and all guests who come here must take off their shoes, whether they are sleeping or sitting, they are also done on this flat painted floor, so it is a little rudimentary.

But no matter how simple it is, other people, such as the reception officer's own mansion, can still see the way it is, where can it be as sloppy as the old site of the Yang family.

An osmanthus tree in the courtyard has been dead for I don't know how many years it has been, and it still carries the dead branches and rotten leaves of a tree. The ground is very clean and tidy, and there is a very good attitude to life that a well-trained soldier should have.

But in this large courtyard, except for the well in the backyard, two buckets for water, and a water tank placed on one side, there are no utensils and supplies next to it, which makes people look very uncomfortable. Almost the last trace of human life was gone.

Su Jiao pursed her mouth and moved forward, pressed these discomforts, and went to the room with Xiang Huai'an There was a reception in the room, and the brand-new quilt that was sent just now, and as soon as she opened the cupboard and saw the quilts that had been used before, he was so distressed and sad that even tears almost fell.
