Chapter 277: The Night of the Seven Smokes

A hoop ann.

Midsummer.

This year's horse bandits were very rampant, even if the city wall was built, they still couldn't stop them, burning, killing and looting, doing all kinds of evil, once they sent troops to encircle and suppress, they ran back into the desert.

It's not that Long Xi Country didn't want to exterminate the horse bandits in the desert, the horse bandits in Flame City not only intruded on the border of Long Xi Kingdom, but the desert they lived in was the east of the desert of the original Feng Netherworld Desert, and bordered the borders of the original Seven Kingdoms.

When the Phoenix Underworld was still a small wild country in the desert, and people hadn't paid attention to their existence, people were most concerned about the Flame City, which was known as the "Desert Fox".

Flame City has existed for a long time, and in Shen Run's impression, his great-grandfather's generation, Flame City was already rampant, so Flame City should have existed long before his great-grandfather.

The City of Flames is not a minority, it is a troubling city for all nations, founded by the most vicious criminals of all countries.

In the early days, Flame City was composed of prisoners exiled into the desert from various countries, and later, death row prisoners and felons who escaped the death penalty poured into Flame City, and the Flame City began to ravage the borders of various countries frantically, as if to retaliate.

They didn't want to take the city, they just did everything they could to plunder more money and women, and once defeated, they would immediately flee back to the desert. Since all countries are not good at desert warfare, it is difficult to exterminate them.

After the scale of Flame City was formed, bandits, bandits, and gangs from various countries who were surrounded and suppressed by the government went to take refuge.

By now, the development of Flame City has matured, and although it is only a city, it is like a country.

In the early years, because Yanyun Country was the richest, the Flame City was very crazy to loot Yanyun Country, and Emperor Yanyun couldn't bear it, so he once smashed his blood to attack Flame City, but later due to the lack of food and grass supply and lack of water, he was defeated without a fight.

After that, the Yanyun Kingdom attacked again, but Flame City had changed places and disappeared.

Later, although Flame City still plundered the Yanyun Kingdom, it was obviously restrained, and the Yanyun Kingdom turned a blind eye.

A small city of flames can't afford to make a big deal about it. If it was in previous years, send troops to defend it, and when it encounters an attack on Flame City, it will be forgotten if it is repulsed. However, this year's Flame City was extremely strong in combat, and it actually captured three cities.

And this year, it happened to be the year when Long Xiguo was short of money.

Therefore, it was originally a matter of being able to turn a blind eye, but Shen Run was very annoyed when he learned about it.

What annoyed him was not only this, after the courtiers heard the news that he was going to marry the Phoenix Lord of the Phoenix Kingdom, some people were very much in favor, but the old guys with deep roots fiercely opposed it.

The reason is clear to Shen Run, the people who are in favor are thinking about Long Xiguo, and think that the marriage between Long Xiguo and Feng Ming Kingdom must be Long Xiguo; What they oppose is to consider it from their own standpoint, thinking that after the marriage, the future Emperor Longxi must be from the Phoenix Lord of the Phoenix Kingdom, what they care about is not the issue of confusing blood, what they care about is that then they will not have a chance to have a grandson who is the crown prince.

So all the excerpts that Shen Run received in the past few days were urging him to extend his heirs, especially the Bai family, who was the happiest, even more annoying than the mouthy mother-in-law in the market.

Shen Run sometimes thinks that it is really good that Feng Ming Kingdom is a barbaric country, even if there are nobles with deep roots, they will not be as intertwined as Long Xi Kingdom, and they will be involved in the whole body, if Long Xi Kingdom is also as simple as Feng Ming Kingdom, he wants to learn from Chenguang to kill all the mouthy.

Although he would think so, he still had scruples in the end, on the one hand, there were indeed many nobles with deep roots in Longxi Country and they were difficult, and it was useless to kill all of them all, and it was useless to kill one alone; On the other hand, he didn't want to create too many killings to make Long Xiguo become a rumor, and everyone was in danger, which would chill the hearts of the courtiers and the people.

If killing is used as a means of rule, the people will rebel.

The ministers who urged him to be fortunate to be concubines one after another, and the excerpts urging him to have children one after another, during the day, Bai Wanning's father actually invited He Taishi, who taught him when he was still a prince, to persuade him.

Shen Run was furious.

But Master He is over 70 years old, and he is his teacher in the past, and his respect for teachers makes him unable to say the word "roll". Patiently listening to Taishi He's nagging for an afternoon, he was already holding back the fire in his belly, and in the evening, Concubine Xu and Bai Guifei, who came to deliver the soup, met at the door, and made a fuss, causing a lot of noise outside the palace gate, Shen Run became more and more angry, and after ordering Concubine Xu to be grounded, he was still very annoyed.

Nothing went well all day today.

When the ugly hour finally took care of the court affairs, he was tired and angry, so he vented all his anger on Chenguang's head.

When he returned to the dormitory, he still thought in his heart hatefully when he bathed and changed clothes, if it weren't for the morning light, he would have had a group of children, if it wasn't for the morning light, he would have hugged left and right to enjoy all the blessings, or if it wasn't for the morning light...... He doesn't always feel like a piece is blocked......

I really want to strangle her!

The palace maid put down the curtain and hurriedly withdrew, the blind man knew that His Majesty was in a bad mood today, and it was important to save his life!

Shen Run sat on the edge of the bed with a calm face for a while, tired and annoyed, but he didn't feel sleepy, but he still had to go to court at the end of the day.

He frowned, lifted the covers, slipped in, and let out a long sigh.

Suddenly, he felt that something was not right, first of all, it was not cold in the quilt today, and then his feet suddenly touched a fluffy and chubby warm object, his heart sank, and at this moment, a hand suddenly put on his thigh!

A chill rushed up from the tail vertebrae, his scalp was numb, Huo Di sat up, and suddenly lifted the quilt!

He was dumbfounded.

Under his feet is a fat cat who is sleeping soundly, next to his thigh, the woman in white is lying on the bed, one hand on his thigh, her face is hidden under her arm, the tip of her nose is rubbing against his pants, curled up in a ball, like a cat, sleeping soundly.

One person and one cat, so comfortable!

Shen Run froze there, paused for two breaths, and rushed up with a burst of fire, like an instantly ignited cannonball, exploding a thick cloud, and he roared fiercely:

"Morning light!"

Shake the earth!

The eunuchs, palace maids, and guards guarding the door were startled by this roar and rushed in in a panic.

The palace maid quickly lit more lamps and candles to illuminate the palace.

Fu Heng Fuli took the lead in rushing into the inner hall and said in a loud voice:

"Your Majesty!"

She was awakened by the sweet morning light, she opened her sleepy eyes, half-raised her head, glanced at Shen Run lazily, and then sat up slowly with a yawn, and said softly and glutinously:

"Xiao Run, you're back! It's late! ”

The green tendons on Shen Run's forehead kept jumping, she not only regarded the heavily guarded Longxi Kingdom Palace as her own back garden and went in and out casually, but also slept on his bed silently, and the bed was just that, the sentence "You are back" was as simple as she got up in the morning to see him off and welcomed him back at night, they hadn't seen each other for more than half a year, and she had put him together before leaving Chiyang Kingdom, she actually had such a comfortable face!

Shen Run glared at her angrily.

The life span of his life in this life is all because of her, if he has a short life in the future, the culprit must be her!
