Chapter 53: Love at First Sight (I)

Haidong and Tielei rode horses to send Kapok's chariot out of the border with Southland.

Soon, the people sitting in the chariot saw through the long-range view function of the chariot's observation system that there was an outpost battle fortress fluttering the flag of the Southland in the distance on the straight avenue, and the outline of a castle was revealed in the vast sky behind the outpost.

Jiesheng pointed to the window and said: "Lord Wang, general, that is the northernmost frontier outpost of the Southland Kingdom, Jiesheng made an appointment with his senior brother yesterday to meet there at noon today."

Less than twenty miles behind that outpost was a small city, the Tiancheng of the Nandi Kingdom, which was only a hundred miles away from Langcheng. Our Chamber of Commerce Corps is stationed in Tiancheng, and we can respond to my senior brother's corps in wartime. ”

Yagu nodded and said: "Okay, that Tiancheng is undoubtedly the northern gateway of Xinnan City, plus Langcheng, it is two strong lines of defense, and if the gene people want to attack Xinnancheng from this road, they will definitely pay a heavy price." ”

Xia Poor came here from New Nancheng early this morning to check on the withdrawal of the Southland Legion, and when all the Southland Legions withdrew from the border of the Ancient Land Country, Xia Poor finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After lunch in Tiancheng, he rushed to the frontier outpost to wait for Kapok's chariot.

Seeing that the chariot was approaching the outpost, Kapok Zi said to Jiesheng: "Strategist, we still have a vacant seat in the car, and we will ask the poor senior brother to take the car with us to Xinnan City later." ”

Jiesheng smiled: "This is the best, the prince can know the thoughts and plans of the Nandi King from my senior brother earlier." ”

The chariot slowly stopped in front of Xia Di's convoy, and Xia Di and a few of his entourage had been standing on the side of the road for a long time.

The car door opened, and Jiesheng got out of the car and stepped forward with a smile: "Have you made the senior brother wait for a long time?" ”

Although he listened to Kapok's words and called Xia Poor a senior brother to the outside world, but in private, Jiesheng still called Xia Poor a senior brother, he felt that this was more polite, after all, ordinary people like to be old and not old.

Xia Poor had something in his heart, he didn't care about any politeness, but took Jiesheng's hand and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, do you know if the prince's envoy is married?" ”

Jiesheng was a little confused by Xia's cold question, but when he saw the senior brother in front of him with a serious expression, he quickly understood his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, I haven't inquired about the prince's envoy's private affairs, senior brother wants to introduce Princess Nanling to the prince?" ”

This time, it was Xia Poor's turn to be shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "How did the junior brother guess so accurately?" ”

Jiesheng said with a smile: "Everyone in Xizhou knows the name of Princess Nanling, senior brother reminds me, junior brother, I also think that if the prince's envoy is not married, it is a good match for Princess Nanling." ”

"Since the junior brother also thinks so, then our senior brother will promote this happy event, so that the king of Nandi will have no worries about the prairie expeditionary force." ”

Jiesheng suddenly realized, and said with a serious expression: "Okay, the senior brother understands the good intentions of the senior brother, and the prince invites the senior brother to sit in his chariot, and we will talk about it on the road." ”

Xia Poor ordered his entourage to open the way in front, and he happily followed Jiesheng into the chariot, and after the guests and hosts exchanged polite greetings, Xia Poor sat down, and the chariot started, following the three galloping carriages in front of him and drove towards New South City.

In order to satisfy the curiosity of the poor, Kapok first gave a brief introduction to the performance of the chariot, and then turned the topic to the king of the southern land.

Xia Poor said: "Lord, General Yagu, junior brother, our King and Princess Nanling were very uneasy after hearing the report of Xia Poor yesterday, our Nancheng is less than fifty miles away from the sea, and the surrounding terrain is flat. At the beginning, I was worried that the undersea talents would move the capital to the new southern city, but there were still 50,000 people living in the southern city, and if the undersea people attacked the southern city, how to defend the city was a big problem. ”

"I heard from the military advisor that the king of Nandi has a total of thirty-five corps, and he can send fifteen corps to guard the southern city, and he must hurry up and build at least two lines of defense around the city." Yagu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said, When it comes to military tactics, among the people in the car, he undoubtedly has the most right to speak.

"The general's suggestion is consistent with the idea of our Princess Nanling, who has ordered the twenty corps withdrawn from the border, half of which will go directly to Nancheng to establish fortifications."

Xia Poor intentionally or unintentionally repeatedly mentioned Princess Nanling, which made Kapok feel very curious, and he couldn't help but ask: "Brother Xia Poor, who is Princess Nanling?" Since she is called a princess, she is undoubtedly a woman, why is the legion of the Southland Kingdom commanded by her? ”

Xia Poor said seriously: "Back to the prince, Princess Nanling is the only daughter of His Majesty the King of our country, and her mother died early, so Your Majesty has vigorously cultivated her since she was a child, so that Princess Nanling will inherit the throne in the future." Because of this, although Princess Nanling is only twenty-two years old this year, she has already undertaken many national affairs for her father.

Princess Nanling is not only beautiful but also very intelligent, she has been familiar with military books since she was a child, and has participated in the military affairs of Nandi very early. Therefore, in the war against the undersea people, His Majesty the King of China also handed over the command of the corps to Princess Nanling. ”

Xia Poor glanced at Jiesheng when he said this, Jiesheng comprehended, and then said to Kapok: "Lord, everyone in Xizhou Continent knows the name of Princess Nanling, and Jiesheng has heard it countless times in Xizhou. The reason for this is none other than that Princess Nanling is not only beautiful in appearance but also outstanding in learning, and she was born to be the future queen. Countless princes of Gongsun in Xizhou are interested in pursuing, but none of them can be favored by Princess Nanling. ”

Kapok Zi said with a smile: "Hearing what your senior brothers said, Prince Ben really wants to meet this Nanling princess." ”

Ya Gule said: "Kapok, are you already tempted?" But I've heard that your father and queen mother are interested in introducing you to the princess of Blackberry City. ”

Everyone in the car laughed.

Xia Poor was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked Yagu: "According to the general's meaning, the prince is not married yet?" ”

Yagu smiled: "No, he and my cousin Shanglin just came back from outside the sky, and as soon as they came back, they met the people from the bottom of the sea to make trouble, where is there time to talk about marriage, but I don't know if the two of them have alien beauties outside the sky." ”

The crowd laughed.

Kapok Zi smiled: "Hi, big cousin, everyone, I am very busy outside the world, I have endless homework to do every day, I have to work in the workshop on weekends and holidays, and I don't have time to talk about girlfriends at all." If you really have a girlfriend, even if it's an alien beauty, I'll bring it back for you to see. ”

The crowd burst into laughter again.

Xia Poor said excitedly: "Lord, the poor is not talented, but when he was young, he studied acquaintances and made a living from them, and when he saw the prince in the palace of the ancient city, he felt that the prince and my Nanling princess were a perfect match in the world, unparalleled in the world!" ”

Yaya, the four warriors in the car, and Setsuo all high-fived and cheered together.

Kapok's red face turned even redder, but he has been a straightforward person since he was a child, and now he has added a lot of old and serious attitudes, he quickly returned to normal, and smiled at Xia Poor: "This prince has heard the mage say a long time ago, your open-door disciple can read and speak first-class. But this time, the senior brother is afraid that he will be wrong, although this prince is tall but has an ordinary appearance, and he is rough and informal, he is definitely not worthy of Princess Nanling. ”

Xia Poor hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, Xia Poor will not be mistaken!" The legend of the prince was heard in the ancient city more than ten years ago, and he told the princess Nanling, who was still a teenager, and the princess has always remembered it. ”

This time, Jiesheng didn't need to be urged by poverty to help speak, "Lord, my master has always appreciated my brother's ability to see acquaintances, and my brother undoubtedly knows the roots of Princess Nanling. There is no doubt that the elder brother is completely sure to tell this strange fate. Jiesheng thinks that if the prince has a fate with Princess Nanling, it will be a great joy, and our expeditionary force will become a family with the corps of the Nandi Kingdom, and as for other small things, the Nandi King will strongly support it. General Aya, what do you think? ”

Setsuo turned to Agu for support.

Hearing this, Yagu had already understood the good intentions of the Jiesheng Senior Brother, and the expression on his face became serious, "Well, the military advisor is reasonable!" If the matter of the prince of the prairie and the princess of Xizhou becoming a well-known story in Xizhou, it will undoubtedly greatly encourage the confidence of the military and people of Xizhou to resist the war, and it will be very beneficial for us to jointly fight against the people under the sea. Kapok, as long as Princess Nanling is interested in you, you should follow the ideas of the poor senior brother and the military advisor. If the two of you can forge a good relationship, you will be more effective than sending five thousand expeditionary forces from the steppes. ”

The father and daughter of the king of Nandi meet guests in the king's office.

After repeatedly telling the soldiers in the car, in order to promote the reconciliation between Kapok and Princess Nanling, and also to be able to see the beauty of Princess Nanling with his own eyes, coupled with his absolute trust in poverty, Yagu made an exception to leave the chariot this time and accompanied Kapok Zi and Jiesheng to meet the King of Nandi and Princess Nanling.
