Chapter 40: Invitations

The northwest is already in the bag, so Xiao Yu is not in a hurry, but let Xu Lin slowly figure it out, and be sure to seek stability. On the side of Huang Hanji, the western capital, there were two small rebellions, which were suppressed by Huang Hanji himself, four Taiji were executed, and two tribes were removed. After Xiao Yu watched Huang Hanji's performance, he replied to Huang Hanji and asked him and Bonu to dispose of it as appropriate, one to appease and the other to suppress, and if necessary, Minxing and Shen Dongzan could transfer troops.

After the first spring snow, even in the northwest such a bitter cold place, it began to gradually warm, there is a mountain in the Xiao Mansion, the famous Xiaoxiang Mountain, just behind the small courtyard where Lin Yinping lived for a long time, the mountain is not big, covering an area of only more than 100 acres, but it is just at the highest point in the central capital. During the proprietor's year, there were pavilions and pavilions built on the mountain, which have been abandoned for a long time, and it is not until today that the renovation has been completed.

There is a half-suspended pavilion built on the mountain wall halfway up the mountain, which is called Linfeng Pavilion, at this time Xiao Yu is sitting in Linfeng Pavilion, one hand on the window edge, looking out.

A spring breeze blew from the window, blowing Xiao Yu's sideburns, and at the same time blowing several recitals on the table in front of Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu's gaze turned back from the window and landed on the music table in front of him, and there was a faint luster in his eyes.

Beside him, Lin Han was standing with his hands down, whispering back to him about sending Xiao Jin back to the Eastern Capital, and opposite him, Lin Yinping was leaning on the back of the chair, his hands folded on his lower abdomen, half-squinting his eyes, bathing in the spring breeze, and drowsy.

As soon as Xiao Yu raised his hand, Lin Han's voice stopped abruptly.

Xiao Yu said softly: "I know, you can go." ”

Lin Han bowed his head and slowly stepped back.

After Lin Han left, Lin Yinping opened his eyes, looked at Xiao Yu and asked curiously, "Do you really plan to let Emperor Zheng crown you as a prince?"

Xiao Yu also leaned on the back of the chair, crossed his ten fingers on his lower abdomen, and said calmly: "Whether it is the prince of the country or the prince, it is just a name, at the beginning I was named Xiao Rebellion, but I didn't think about it but gave me the northwest, everyone in the world regards me as the king of the northwest, if Emperor Zheng continues to be stubborn and strong, it will become more and more powerful outside the big Zheng, but if he is willing to take a step back, add me a title that is no longer insignificant, and can also leave a fig leaf for Da Zheng." ”

Lin Yinping straightened up, looked at Xiao Yu with his hands on his cheeks, and said with a smile: "This is about whether I am a princess or a duchess." ”

Xiao Yu chuckled and reminded: "Your Highness, you, the princess, are of the same rank as the prince. ”

Lin Yinping smiled and asked, "Can you still be a colt?"

Xiao Yu shook his head and smiled: "Two people, one thing." ”

Lin Yinping wrinkled his nose, "This is different, if you are a colt, I am the head of the family, you have to listen to me." ”

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "Recently, it has not been very peaceful, some people have rumored that the dispute between the central capital and the western capital is actually the dispute between the prince and the princess, the central capital party is loyal to the prince, and the western capital party is loyal to the princess, and now the central capital and the western capital do not like each other, in fact, the prince and the princess have a gap." ”

Lin Yinping said flatly: "It's a shame that they can figure it out." ”

Xiao Yu sighed a little helplessly: "It's good that you and I know it in our hearts, after all, our foundation is still shallow, and it is not yet time to make a drastic move, so we can only endure it for a while and wait for a while." ”

Lin Yinping quipped: "If I had seen you now, I am afraid that I would have to stay away." ”

Xiao Yu smiled and nodded: "When I saw you now, I still want to fall in love with you." ”

The spring breeze outside the pavilion has a tendency to become bigger, Xiao Yu lightly tapped on the table and said: "The current border situation can almost be regarded as a three-legged stand, and I sit on the northwest of Dazheng and the grassland is considered to be one foot. The shepherds of the northern capital have an army of 200,000 in the northeast, and they are still the ministers of Dazheng on the bright side, which can be regarded as a foot. The last leg is the back one, and the emaciated camel is larger than the horse, and it is also the thickest of the three legs. ”

Lin Yinping frowned and asked, "Is there any movement over there in Houjian?"

Xiao Yu said: "Roughly speaking, the rebellion of the five kings is considered to have eyebrows, if nothing else, the king of Yanchi, Wanyande, will become the second regent, and after completely setting up the small emperor, he will preside over the five kings' politics." ”

Lin Yinping still frowned, "Lao Tzu who finished Yan Hong?"

Xiao Yu nodded and smiled: "It's him." ”

At this time, Lin Han went and returned, and said softly: "There is an envoy in Julu City who wants to ask to see the prince. ”

Xiao Yu smiled: "Just talking." Someone is coming, let him come up. ”

Sun De, who is already not confused, even if he is trusted by the lord of Julu City, he is already the third person in the stewards of Julu City, and he is still a respectful Hou outside the door, and after Xiao Yu agrees, let Hu Conghou stay in place, he is alone and led by Lin Han from the outer corridor to the outside of the Linfeng Pavilion, as for the inner corridor, it is directly leading to Lin Yinping's small courtyard, and idlers are not allowed to enter.

When he entered the Linfeng Pavilion and saw Xiao Yu, Sun De immediately bowed his head and saluted, as if he saw the Julu City Lord, and said respectfully: "Sun De sees the prince, see Her Royal Highness the princess." ”

Xiao Yu and Lin Yinping didn't get up, Xiao Yu just helped him and laughed softly: "Steward Sun, the last time I met at the Julu Club, I can be regarded as an old acquaintance, so I don't need to be polite." ”

Strictly speaking, Julu City should be regarded as a force in the cultivation world, under normal circumstances, it has nothing to do with the world, Sun De can become the third-in-command of Julu City, and he doesn't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, and the masters of the general frost realm have to give him three points.

It's just that Sun De has already figured it out at this time, although he is no longer an ordinary manager, Xiao Yu is no longer Xiao Yu, and has become the current Xiao Wangye. Xu Lin, the famous metropolitan governor on the frost list, knelt down and surrendered, why should he, a little pawn, be pretentious.

After Sun De straightened up, he took out an invitation card with gold thread tattooed from his sleeve, handed it over with both hands, and said, "My master invites the prince to drive to Julu and his party." ”

Xiao Yu took the invitation, asked Sun De to sit down on the side, and then opened the invitation, and said, "Steward Sun hasn't seen you for a long time, how is the city lord lately?"

Sun De just sat on half of the chair, and hurriedly said with a smile when he heard this: "Everything is fine with the city lord, and Lord Lao is worried." ”

Xiao Yu asked with a smile: "Steward Sun came to Zhongdu this time, do you want to stay for a few more days, so that I can do my best to be a landlord." ”

Sun De, who was quite flattered, hurriedly got up and said in a low voice: "Sun De has thanked the prince for his grace, but the affairs in the city are complicated, and the villain is not good to stay for a long time, and I hope the prince will forgive me." ”

Xiao Yu had already finished reading the content of the invitation in his hand, and after handing the invitation card in his hand to Lin Yinping opposite, he said: "Since this is the case, then Xiao will not force Steward Sun to stay, after Steward Sun goes back, please tell the city lord that Xiao will definitely arrive." ”

Sun De nodded yes again and again.

Xiao Yu waved his hand and said, "I won't send it, Lin Han, he will send Sun Steward for me." ”

Lin Han agreed softly.

After the two left, Lin Yinping put down the invitation card in his hand and said, "What do you want to do when Xiao Zheng, the lord of Julu City, invites King Yan Chi, Shepherd Qi and you to go to Julu City?"

Xiao Yu said: "If my guess is correct, it should be that Wanyan De has the intention of forming an alliance, and Xiao Zheng is the guarantor, and the vertical and horizontal technique of long-distance friendship and close attack." ”

Lin Yinping frowned and said, "We are adjacent to Houjian, how can we be considered far?"

Xiao Yu smiled lightly: "For Wan Yande, the other four kings of the Hou Jian country are close enemies. ”

Lin Yinping asked, "When are you going to leave, and how many people are you going to take with you?"

Xiao Yu thought for a while and said: "This kind of thing, there are too many people to bring us, it seems that we are weak-minded, and there are fewer people with us, it is estimated that many people want to take off my Xiao Yu's good head, and the essence is not expensive, this time I will bring Xu Lin, Zishuiyang, Huangshuiquan, and Baishuiduan, and I estimate that the shepherd will not go too early, so let's wait until Xu Lin conquers Xihe Prefecture." ”

Lin Yinping lowered his head, and after being silent for a while, he raised his head to look at Xiao Yu and whispered, "I'll go with you too." ”

Xiao Yu hesitated, but shook his head silently.

Lin Yinping was speechless.

Xiao Yu held one of her hands and comforted: "Don't worry, there are three celestials and one quasi-celestial, unless it is a free immortal, it will never be fine." ”

Lin Yinping smiled reluctantly, pulled out his hand from Xiao Yu's hand, and said softly, "Hmm." I know. Don't be like before, fight with your life at every turn, the sky and the earth are big, and you can be the safest. ”

Xiao Yu got up with a smile and said, "I'll remember it." There are still some trivial matters today, so I'll go down and deal with them first. ”

After Xiao Yu left, Lin Yinping leaned lazily on the back of the chair and looked out the window.

The woman, who had been staying at home during this time, whispered to herself: "When I was a child, my mother said that husband and wife, what is husband and wife, is nothing more than supporting each other. Such a couple will last a long time. ”

"It was better before, he still needs your princess identity, but now that he is a prince, I'm afraid I can't use this princess's identity. ”

"Without the identity of a princess, you can't manage politics, Wu doesn't dare to kill, you will only make trouble for him again and again. Although he didn't say it explicitly, you must know that it would be a burden for you to go to Julu City with you. ”

"Murong said that although you saved your life, your body is weak, and it is unlikely that you will have children in this life. ”

"When the day comes to the old pearl, what will you have left. ”

Because he forgot to take the invitation, Xiao Yu, who went and returned, kept the action of wanting to push the door and did not move.
