When the army set off, Ling Xiao's back was submerged in the vast array of soldiers, and he could no longer be seen, and Ah Zhao came back to his senses from his confusion.

Ling Xiao kissed her just now?

"What's the situation?" She looked at the marshmallow a little confused.

It's just that Ling Xiao's previous performance was too calm and indifferent, and Ah Zhao didn't realize that he had such thoughts about himself at all.

And, the point is......

"I'm a man now!"

Ah Zhao was full of sorrow: Could it be that the male protagonist of this world actually likes men?

So what can she do?

Marshmallow thought about it, thought about it again, and then said honestly: "This question is out of outline, and Marshmallow can't either." ”

Zhao: "......"

"But Marshmallow knows that no matter whether Ah Zhao is a man or a woman, whether the male protagonist likes a man or a woman, the person he will always fall in love with will only be yours." Marshmallow said firmly.

Ah Zhao was suspicious: "How do you know?" ”

Marshmallow said in a deep tone: "The intuition of the system, understand?" ”

Zhao: "......"

Why does this sound familiar?

……

Ten days later, Ah Zhao in the imperial city received Ling Xiao's recital.

The content was decent, detailing the various arrangements in the army, and there were no other superfluous words except for an official greeting.

As if that day, the man who suddenly kissed her for a long time was not him!

Ah Zhao snorted and replied with a decent handwritten letter.

By the time Ling Xiao received the letter from Beijing, he had already fought with the Xiongnu on a small scale.

Victory.

He unfolded the letter and looked at His Majesty's cold pen, bitter in his heart.

Your Majesty must have annoyed himself.

Blame him for being too impulsive.

But he didn't regret it.

Do it all over again, Ling Xiao thought: I will definitely kiss again.

He carefully folded the letter and placed it close to his body, and looked coldly to the north.

Wait a little longer.

Wait until all the new crossbows are built.

Just when those Huns tasted the price!

Another month.

It was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and on the first festival day after the death of the first emperor, the palace banquet was extremely lively.

The good news came from the northwest, and the general Ling Xiao led his troops to fight with the Xiongnu and captured the second prince of the Xiongnu Nuhazhuo alive.

This matter was recorded by historians in the follow-up: the emperor was overjoyed when he heard the news, and ordered the blood of the Xiongnu prince to sacrifice the flag.

In another half month, the general Ling Xiao led the soldiers of the Great Qi to confront the elite army of the Huns, defeated the Huns, destroyed 20,000 elite Huns, and captured 7,000 alive.

The murderous people who had endangered the border of Daqi for hundreds of years begged for peace with Daqi for the first time as a weak person, and asked Daqi to send the princess to the Xiongnu and relatives.

When the court got the news, the two factions quarreled.

One side thought that the war should continue, and the Xiongnu endangered the border for hundreds of years and killed many people of Daqi. In the past, Daqi could only seek peace when he had the upper hand in the confrontation with them, but now that he has the upper hand, he should take advantage of his illness to kill him.

The other side believes that war can be avoided if it can be avoided, and at this moment Daqi is in an advantageous position, and it is just right to negotiate conditions with the Xiongnu, such as signing a treaty of non-aggression for decades, and even requiring them to bow down and be vassal, showing our great power.

"Negotiate conditions? Show the magnanimity of a great country? Zhao sneered.

She clapped her hands, and the attendant beside her presented something to her.

"Read."

The hall fell silent, and only the shrill voice of the chamberlain echoed in the hall.

"In the second year of Kaifu of the Great Qi, Huzhi Khan, the king of the Xiongnu Zuoxian, led his troops to invade Hangu County, slaughtered 13,000 civilians, captured 3,000 women and children alive as slaves, and 20,000 soldiers died in battle."
