Chapter Eighty-Four: It's Better to Be a Woman

Qin Bai stood in the courtyard, looking up at the roof of the Yongle Palace, and couldn't help but remember the day when she stumbled with the snow river, and she was so angry that she went to the house to open the tiles and smash people. I can't remember the reason for the quarrel, but the image of Xue He lifting his skirt and walking on the tiles in a huff is still in his memory.

flamboyant, brutal, smart and dexterous, but unforgiving; When he is a demon, he hates people's teeth, and he is coquettish and pitiful, and he can't bear to be harsh.

Every time I think of her, although sometimes it is really difficult to make people have a headache, but at the same time I feel very playful and cute, real and natural, compared with those gentle, dignified, disciplined and cautious women in the palace, it is especially distinct and impressive.

He suddenly thought: If everything had started all over again, and she was a mortal, she was really just an ordinary concubine offered by a horse bandit, he would probably only love her. Although she may not lose to Yu Miaojin with her ingenuity, with her unyielding nature, she will definitely suffer if she stays in the palace for a long time, and I am afraid it will be another sad story of body abuse and heart abuse.

Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that it was good to be like this now, at least she was free, with the protection of her master and brothers, no one could hurt her, and she didn't have to be caught in the harem battle of deceit. Even if she is too free, even if she is lovesick, she still hides far away and refuses to show up.

- It's quite disturbing, too.

A wry smile appeared on Qin Bai's originally serious face.

"It's been ten years, and there must be no return date for this time, which makes people a little reluctant."

Yu Miaojin also looked at the Yongle Palace, and couldn't help but sigh.

"No, I'll be back."

Qin Bai glanced at her, still with a smile in his eyes, but his tone was extremely firm.

Yu Miaojin couldn't help frowning: "The land of Yancheng projectiles, is it possible that the prince wants to ......?"

Move the capital, that's right.

Qin Bai nodded, and her guess was completely confirmed in her eyes. Yu Miaojin couldn't help but tighten in her heart: The location of the imperial capital is related to the national fortune of a country, and the matter is very high, so I am afraid that it will be considered in the long run.

"However, these are all for later, and I am not in a hurry."

Qin Bai saw her doubts, said lightly, and asked, "Where is the princess from?" ”

Yu Miaojin was stunned by this question. Whether it is Zhao Zheng or Qin Bai, they should already have a very clear understanding of their background background, why do they suddenly ask like this? She hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't guess his thoughts, so she had to answer:

"The concubine's ancestral home is Haozhou."

"Well, Gu Zhong is a good place to leave the country."

Qin Bai praised it casually, and then there was no follow-up.

Yu Miaojin was confused, and seeing that the guards had sealed the hall at this time, Qin Bai suddenly called a guard: "Murong Jue!" ”

The thin young man was stunned for a moment, stopped and stood still, and respectfully saluted, "Lord Wang." ”

"Bring more preserved fruit with you, that thing can't be eaten in the south."

"Yes."

Yu Miaojin was puzzled: "I don't know, when does the prince like to eat that thing?" ”

"Snow River likes it."

Qin Bai dropped a sentence, then turned around and led everyone out of the palace directly through the gate, but he never looked back.

Yu Miaojin frowned slightly: I'm afraid it's not about moving the capital, it's also related to her, right?

But at the moment, the overall situation is undecided, and it is difficult to say anything else, so I have to press it first and not mention it.

On the same day, King Ning left his son Zhao Wenchi and a small number of soldiers and horses to guard Yancheng, and personally led the army to meet with the Duoyan Sanwei outside the city, and officially raised the flag. The imperial court was shocked when it learned that Zhao Zheng had killed the envoy and seized military power, and immediately dispatched more than 500,000 men from all walks of life to gather in Hejian Mansion to prevent the army from moving south, and ordered the Marquis of Jiangyin in Liaodong to attack Yongping to contain it.

On this day, the army had just been stationed, and it was getting late and it was already the time to hold the lanterns.

As soon as the army moved, all kinds of affairs in the army continued, and everyone was busy with their own affairs, only Xuehe was an idler. At this time, the camp tent was also empty, and he, the generals and Zhao Zheng were discussing the division of troops in the Chinese military tent at this time, and he couldn't even take care of dinner.

Xue He crossed his legs on the table, holding a bag of preserved fruits in his arms, and looked at the ceiling in boredom. The gang set up a rule for her: you can't flirt with a sister or a man-

"Life is really lonely as snow."

Xue He was slumped in the chair, looking at the tip of his boots in a daze, but suddenly heard a sound of footsteps outside the door, and came in with a curtain, and immediately lowered his face when he saw her decadent appearance:

"You said that you were a guard, and you had to take three or five days off when you were on duty, but you couldn't find anyone at all on that day."

"This dog thief guard officer actually sued me for being black? Meow a! Look how I clean him up when I turn around! ”

"Let's not talk about that!"

He slapped her feet down: "Standing without standing, sitting without sitting!" What about the rules? You dare to be so virtuous at home, see that A-Niang doesn't break your dog's legs! ”

"Men, aren't they all like this?"

Xue He said, deliberately exaggeratedly spreading his legs apart and shaking his legs proudly.

He said angrily and slapped her on the leg: "Which taught you?" You go around the barracks and see which of my soldiers is like you?! ”

Xue He gasped in his mouth, immediately retracted his legs, and complained:

"Oh, it's better to be a woman."

Zhen Tun snorted: "Qin Bai has been doing very well recently, you stay honest and stop for a few days, don't make trouble for me." ”

At this time, I saw Qin Bai coming in from outside, and just about to speak, he hesitated when he saw Murong Jue on the throne.

"It's okay, your own people, the prince has something to say."

Qin Bai then said: "You let me lead my troops to confront the 500,000 imperial army of Hejian Mansion, do you want to think about this matter again?" ”

He smiled: "Don't worry. That Li Jinglong was originally a gentleman's son, scheming and arrogant, fierce and discouraged, this person did not understand the art of war at all. Don't look at him with 500,000 men, he will definitely be defeated. You just have to hold on, and when I defeat the Marquis of Jiangyin, it's not too late to come back and fight him. ”

Qin Bai had a bitter face, and said in his heart: You only said that the goods opposite are a layman, but I am not an insider! I'm a soy sauce guy! I won't lead troops to war! The last time I fought a horse bandit, it was completely good!

At this time, he heard that Pu Lao seemed to be calling him outside, so he answered and smiled at Qin Bai: "Wait for me." So saying, he turned and went out.

Qin Bai had to wait for him in the tent first, wrinkling his brows, and inadvertently glanced at Xuehe again. He had the impression that this little guard was usually very loose, but it seemed that he had a very close relationship with the scum, and he didn't know what it was.

Now only the two of them were left in the tent, and they continued to fill their mouths with preserved fruits disapprovingly, chewing and chewing idlely.

Wait, preserved fruit?

Qin Bai's gaze finally fell on the bag of things in his arms, and his face sank significantly.

"What are you staring at? I bought it for my own money, and it's not yours! I'm in a hurry! Stingy. I didn't expect him to be the first to fly with a roll of his eyes.

No matter how good-tempered Qin Bai was, he couldn't bear it anymore at this time: "You, who are you?" ”

Xue He spit out a fruit pit expressionlessly.

"It's your business."

He has always been polite to others, and his brothers rely on their official skills to be big, and they used to be mean to him. But there is no such thing as the person in front of him, even in private.

No matter how easy Qin Bai is to bully, he also has a temper, and he just wanted to be angry, but he saw that he had already taken care of the things outside the door, and returned to the camp with a few brochures in his hand.

He put the things in his hand on the table, and Xue He changed his arrogance and indifference, and immediately stood up obediently to give him a seat, with a flattering smile on his face:

"Brother, let's discuss something."

Probably there was an urgent military matter to deal with, and he had no time to take care of them for the time being, so after sitting down, he spread out the paper, took the pen and began to write, but said in his mouth:

"Nope."

"I haven't said it yet!"

"No one can leave the barracks without my orders."

Xue He muttered hatefully: "I'm almost suffocated to death." ”

"Then I'll send someone to take you back to Wushan."

"Don't."

He put down his pen, folded the paper and sealed it into a bamboo tube, sealed it with fire paint, and blew gently: "I don't raise idlers under my hands." Either you will be a good guard for me, or you will go home and harm your master. ”

Xue He sighed in disappointment: "...... All right. ”

He raised his head again and said to Qin Bai: "I'm going to leave for Yongping tonight, and Junqi will not be able to come back in two or three days, so you have to get along well during this time." ”

It seemed that the matter had been decided, leaving no room for negotiation at all, so Qin Bai had to nod.

He continued to write something on the paper, and continued to say to the two of them: "When I am not there, no matter what happens, the whole army will not fight. No one can take half a step out of the barracks, remember? ”

"Oh."

Xue He knew that this was meant for himself, so he had to agree.

"If I come back and hear from the guard officer that you are absent from work for no reason and do not listen to the dispatch, you will be punished by military law!"

"Hmph."

Xue He looked unhappy, but he didn't dare to talk back to his brother after all, so he slammed the door angrily and left.

"The prince smiled."

He handed the sealed small bamboo tubes in his hands to different soldiers, and said to Qin Bai: "Her parents have spoiled her since she was a child, and they spoiled her. If you are polite, I hope that you will not bother with her on my thin face. If it's really hard to discipline, just tell Junyi, or wait for me to come back and deal with it. ”

was holding back the fire in his belly, but seeing that his words were sincere and very reasonable, Qin Bai didn't want to say anything more, so he had to go back with a few polite words.

It was really useful to be counted and killed, and when Qin Bai returned to his tent, he saw Murong Jue standing at the door with a face on duty.

Although this young man is arrogant, he is still obedient. Every time I passed by him, I seemed to be able to smell a faint fragrance on his body, which was different from ordinary incense powder, and it was somewhat similar to what Xue He was used to. I remembered that Fang Cai mentioned the old monster of Wushan, presumably this person also has some relationship with Xuehe, right?

Maybe it's a brother? The temper is very similar.

Qin Bai thought in his heart, and just when he entered the door, he saw Yu Miaojin greeted him with a smiling face: "I just heard Ah Weng say that the prince and the general have been discussing the affairs of the Chinese army, and they missed dinner, so the concubine specially prepared it and sent it over." ”

There are four dishes and one soup on the table, there are meat and vegetarian, and the simplicity is also rich.

"You're bothered."

As soon as Qin Bai sat down, Yu Miaojin handed over the chopsticks with both hands: "Lord Wang, try it, do you want to see if it suits your appetite?" ”

"Wait!"

As soon as Qin Bai wanted to take the chopsticks, Murong Jue suddenly jumped in front of him: "Lord Wang, for the sake of safety, it's better to let your subordinates test the poison for you first." ”

Try your sister! The things sent by the princess herself still have to be tested for poison? Are you a budding newcomer?

Not only Yu Miaojin, but even the face of the old inner prisoner standing on the side was a little green.

"That's it, no need."

Qin Bai didn't know what kind of routine he was doing, and refused with a slightly stiff expression.

"That's not good, the general just said, if you don't follow the rules, you will have to deal with me by military law." Murong Jue took a step forward seriously, took the chopsticks from the princess's hand, and stuffed a large mouthful of food into his mouth without noticing:

"Tsk, salty."
