Chapter 161: Red Pupils

As soon as Xiao Huaijin entered the city gate, Wanxiang greeted him: "Lord Wang." ”

"Do you know that doing this will anger Xiao Huaiyue?" His words were angry, as if he was blaming Wanxiang for being troublesome. But Wanxiang didn't care about his anger, and asked, "What is there to be afraid of the prince?" ”

"When did I get scared?"

"Looking at the way the prince blames me, it seems that he is very afraid of Xiao Huaiyue. If you are afraid, why should you 'pretend' to lose the battle and give up Lingdu? ”

"It's not a matter of harm, don't be afraid, the gentleman's covenant ......"

"The prince said that it was a gentleman's covenant, so Xiao Huaiyue can keep the gentleman's covenant?" Seeing that Xiao Huaijin didn't speak, Wanxiang picked up a silk handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corners of his eyes: "To do a play, you have to do a full set, and it is reasonable to advance and retreat three times, not to mention that he didn't come as agreed." ”

The cold wind hits Juanxiang's body, and a light sigh will condense into frost. Xiao Huaijin took the incense: "Go back first." ”

Presumably, Xiao Huaijin also felt from the bottom of his heart that what Wanxiang said was reasonable, so he didn't pursue it again after he went back, let alone discuss the matter with Wanxiang.

When the person next to the pillow slept peacefully at night, Xiao Huaijin sat alone in front of the desk to wipe his sword, and when he heard the stumbling outside the door, he shouted: "Who?" ”

The door was pushed open, the night clothes blended with the dim sky, and the man boldly stepped into Xiao Huaijin's room: "See King Pingnan." ”

Xiao Huaijin raised his eyes to look at him, and the hand hooked down his mask, revealing a face that was so pale that it appeared sickly. He raised his eyes, the corners of his eyes were blood-red, and he looked at Xiao Huaijin boldly.

When he raised his eyes, the candle flame dimmed, and his eyes looked at each other like a tiger hungry wolf competing for food.

"I remember you, Huaiyue's retinue Red Pupil."

"Yes."

"What's the matter?"

"The prince wants to call the red pupil to ask, can King Pingnan remember the appointment of the day?"

Xiao Huaijin put down the double-edged sword and replied, "Of course I remember." ”

"Then why is the prince ...... today?"

"I would like to ask the seventh brother, why did he come to January earlier when he said that it was the time of the earth's rejuvenation in February? If I haven't completed the deployment in this month, and the seventh brother waives his troops north, won't I be cocooned and bound by myself?

Still Bai Ninghou's words are not clear enough? ”

"My prince came on the orders of the emperor and had to do it as a last resort. Not to mention that the king of Pingnan is brave and good at fighting, and he has been fighting for many years, and he will not miss easily.

At the beginning, the king of Pingnan formed an alliance with the prince of my family, and the emperor Xingcheng and the great cause were moved, and the alliance between flesh and blood was easily disintegrated? ”

"Huaiyue's hidden scales are really amazing. Before, Huai Hui and I were sandpiper mussels, and the little emperor was a fisherman, but now I and the little emperor are sandpiper mussels, who is the fisherman? ”

The red pupil knelt in front of Xiao Huaijin: "King Yi has the courage to have no strategy and the tiger does not know how to judge the situation, and the prince of my family knows the truth of 'the heart is not delusional, the mouth is not false', the ancient sage is superior, not to mention that the prince is long." Everything should be respected by the king.

Now that the Empress Dowager is in power, she has a disagreement with the sons of the previous emperor. The two princes have become 'dead lips and cold teeth', where will they do treacherous things to you? I didn't dare to do the stupid thing of burning the boat on the river. It's all about self-preservation. ”

Xiao Huaijin looked at the blood red under the eyes of the visitor, and replied with a chuckle: "Just for self-preservation, I won't marry Qi Hou's daughter." ”

"......" came to speak for a while, and then said: "The Qi clan is now headed by Qi Hou, and the previous hunting in the northern suburbs has called the saint and the Qi clan to separate. If the Qi family wants to turn against the Empress Dowager, they must find other support.

With this support, we can make up our minds to wait. ”

"You're a good talker."

"Thank you for your compliment."

"I'm not the king of Pingnan anymore."

"In the heart of my prince, you are still the king of Pingnan who has made great achievements, and I hope that in the future, the prince's grievances will be cleared and he will return to the imperial city."

"The world knows that I really reversed ......" Xiao Huaijin asked him with a smile: "This is the case, how can you show the snow?" ”

"Lord, don't you want to take the princess to live a stable life?"

This sentence asked Xiao Huaijin's heart, Xiao Huaijin lowered his eyes and asked, "Punish your heart?" ”

"Red pupils don't dare."

Xiao Huaijin lowered his eyes and looked at the pen in his hand: "Go back and tell the seventh brother that when you and I are invited to rejuvenate in February, it will be February." Not more than a moment, not less than a moment. ”

The red-pupiled paper white face showed a sad color: "But the emperor ordered my prince to recapture Lingdu before February." Otherwise......"

"Huaiyue is a smart person, the weather is cold, the terrain of Lingdu is dangerous, and it is not the best policy to attack rashly. Speaking of which, do you understand? ”

"Yes! My lord will definitely deal with the imperial city and drag it out until February. ”

Xiao Huaijin picked up the teapot on the side, raised his eyes and asked, "Do you want to drink tea?" ”

Seeing Xiao Huaijin give the eviction order, the red pupil lowered his head: "No, the red pupil retreats." ”

After speaking, he left while the moonlight was dark, but Xiao Huaijin still poured two teas, lowered his eyes and said, "Come out." ”

Wanxiang, who was hiding behind the screen, came out in red clothes and held a scimitar, sat next to Xiao Huaijin, raised her little hand and massaged Xiao Huaijin's shoulder.

"You're worried that Red Pupil is here to kill me?"

"Xiao Huaiyue has been hiding for so long, how could he want to share a piece of the pie with you, the prince? I don't trust anyone but the prince. ”

"In the past few days, you will lead the troops back to Yucheng to strengthen the defense."

"What about you?"

"I stayed here and continued to sing with Xiao Huaiyue, and I realized that it was not easy to play in a drama robe."

Wanxiang put down the teacup, took off Xiao Huaijin's coat, and put her hands on his waist and chin on him: "Then take off the robe and go to rest." ”

"I think you're getting more and more presumptuous."

"Then the prince said, what else in your heart is not allowed to be presumptuous? I should also take it to heart. As he spoke, the cold finger slid on Xiao Huaijin's heart.

"Fingers are so cold...... Xiao Huaijin grabbed her fingers: "It must be that the bed is cold." ”

"yes. Just took a nap and it was cold like this. The prince's physique is yang, why not burn it on the side of the bed with heartfire? ”

"You!" Xiao Huaijin raised his forehead with a little incense, and hugged the person in his arms: "Wait, there are still some official duties to deal with." ”

As soon as Xiao Huaijin held the pen, Wanxiang casually picked up a wisp of green silk and scratched it around Xiao Huaijin's ear, which made Xiao Huaijin uneasy.

"Sooner or later, Ling Du will be someone else's."

Xiao Huaijin took Wanxiang's hand: "Si for a day, loyal to a day's business." ”

"None of that matters."

"So what's important?" As soon as Xiao Huaijin turned around, he saw Wanxiang's peach-like eyes: "Have a good night with Qing, and go to the clouds in a dream." ”

"You don't like to read well, what's going on in your head?" Xiao Huaijin took the pen and knocked on Wanxiang's head: "Or, are you copying the book here?" ”

Hearing the words 'copy the book', Wanxiang immediately put down her hand and got up to go back. Who knew that Xiao Huaijin put down the pen in his hand with a smile, and picked up the person while Wanxiang didn't react.

"Huh! Don't you have business to do? ”

"It's gone."

"Gone? You're too sloppy, aren't you? ”

"It's more important to dream of going to the clouds."

Xiao Huaijin also heard the movement of the roof tiles, so she understood why Wanxiang said those words to herself at this time, pestering herself to go back to rest.

The red pupil on the roof heard that Xiao Huaijin didn't want to pay attention to Ling Du's affairs, and just wanted to have fun, so he went back to his life with peace of mind. After listening to Chitong's words, Xiao Huaiyue finally settled down.

But he couldn't help but blame: "I just said that I can't rush in at this time, my father-in-law has to send troops, and in the end I still made him angry." ”

"Hou Ye means that he hopes that the prince can win by surprise, but he doesn't know why the news of King Pingnan is so well-informed. A small Tibetan incense pavilion will not have such a big ability. ”

"Anyway, next time you can't offend him rashly. It's a gentleman's covenant, and it really shouldn't be. ”

"Our division is famous, just a thief, what is the prince to fear?"

"You don't understand, once the sixth brother classifies me with the saint, it must be me who dies in front. But you're right, we were so cautious in this march, and even the grain and grass were transported in three batches.

The front soldiers are attacking, and he will actually take precautions......"

"And the princess Rongjuan next to King Pingnan, it's not easy to mess with, I was discovered by her before I even entered the door."

"She is not called Rong Juan, at the beginning, the secret guard beside Xiao Huaijin was called Wan Xiang, the Oiran of the Tibetan Fragrance Pavilion. Liang Cuo and the sixth brother are inseparable.

Maybe the prefect of Yucheng at the beginning of Yuanhou still had a few court officials who secretly stumbled the sixth brother, all of whom she made by herself.

If it's really her, who kills people and planted stolen money but no one overturns the case, what kind of character can do it? Your defeat to her is not a grievance. ”
