The pink and tender little girl, the tip of her nose is red, and her tearful appearance is particularly painful.

However, Wei Huayu was accustomed to seeing her rudder in the wind, so she only slowly and methodically put together her horsewhip, and there was always a smile on her lips: "Turn around." ”

"Brother Rain......" The little girl's voice became softer and more pitiful, and she subconsciously clenched her little buttocks.

"I'll count three, three, two—"

Before Wei Huayu could count to one, the ray was already busy turning its small body.

Last time she had suffered a lot, this guy told her to come out from under the bed, she refused, and when he finished counting three, she was not only pulled out and beaten, but even for the next ten days, she didn't eat half a piece of sugar cake!

She sniffed and cried, "Do you want ...... Tap ......"

Wei Huayu was expressionless, and waved his horsewhip and fell towards her little buttocks.

He struck so lightly that the whip fell on her skirt with only a slight "pop", but the little girl was so squeamish that she cried wolf while holding on to the tent.

Wei Huayu frowned, suddenly raised his hand, and slapped her hard.

The ray covered its butt and jumped three feet high!

At this moment, she was really crying, with tears in her eyes, she turned around with resentment, and complained to Wei Huayu in a choked voice: "How dare you really beat me?!" ”

"What kind of joke is my sister talking about, if I don't keep an eye on you and correct what you did wrong all the time, maybe my sister will grow up like Emperor Jin Hui in the future......"

The ray rubbed the sore spot, although the momentum weakened, but the small mouth was still pouting enough to hang the oil bottle, "Then you...... Then you can't really hit people......"

"Heh......" Wei Huayu glanced at the dense clouds in the sky, and took her little hand, "It's about to rain, let's go." ”

He carried the ray to the colt, took the reins by himself, and walked slowly to the barracks.

The two of them returned to Wei Huayu's tent with their front feet, and the rain poured down on their back feet.

At this time, in the tent, the chubby Wei Qianjin was holding a piece of melon and gnawing vigorously.

On the big chair, the little girl who was fainting from hunger had also woken up, and had just finished drinking two bowls of porridge.

She looked up and saw Wei Huayu and the ray coming in, she immediately put down the porridge bowl and got up, and knelt down towards Wei Huayu gratefully: "Xing'er, thank you for the prince's life-saving grace!" If it weren't for the prince today, Apricot would have died alone in the grass! ”

She didn't dare to look directly at Wei Huayu, she only lowered her head and said softly: "The people's daughter has no father and no mother, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't dislike it, the people's daughter is willing to serve by His Highness's side and be a sweeping maid......"

Wei Huayu glanced at her lightly, and threw the horsewhip to the little servant, "What is Xie Bengong doing?" Go to Princess Xie. ”

The little girl named Xing'er hurriedly turned to the ray again, "Thank you princess for your kindness!" ”

"Well," the ray said, helping her up, "since you have no father or mother, you should stay with me!" I'll treat you well! ”

In the big tent next door, Shen Miaoyan sat behind the table, staring at the paperwork that Wei Sicheng had sorted out this morning, and couldn't help but rub his eyebrows.

Hundreds of thousands of refugees, in just a few days, there have been dozens of fights and brawls.

If there is still no food, I am afraid that these brawls will only increase, not less.

She closed the paperwork and turned to Zhang Wanli on the side, "I'm afraid we can't wait to form an alliance with Huarong Zhan, Wanli, you go to the capital of Chu for me, and tell Chu Huanian that I want to ask him to borrow the way, if he is willing to borrow, I promise that within fifty years, I will not commit any crimes with him and conspire to be strong." ”

Zhang Wanli got up, arched her hand at her, and went to do it immediately.

After she left, Shen Miaoyan walked to the door of the tent and quietly watched the pouring rain on the grassland.

The sky and the earth are all dim colors, and the refugee camp in the distance rises and falls in the rain until the distant sky, and occasionally people walk in the rain, and it is faintly visible that the eyebrows are dim.

She stretched out her hand to catch the falling rain, looked up at the gray sky, and whispered, "It turns out that sitting in this position, you need to carry such a heavy burden...... Fourth brother, you know that it is not comfortable to sit in this position, but you still became the emperor without hesitation. ”

"If you and I had left the Imperial City and been an ordinary couple in the mountains and fields, it would have been a wonderful thing, right? With your ability, even if you are an ordinary person, you will definitely be able to live well. ”

"But you finally chose the thorny road to the world."

"Are you here to better protect the people you care about?"

The heavy rain stopped at dusk.

Zhang Wanli packed up her baggage, took a team of people, and rushed to the capital of Chu overnight.

She traveled under the stars and finally arrived in the capital fifteen days later.

She stood outside the Chu Palace in the official uniform of the Great Wei Dynasty, looking up at the expanded palace, which was even more gorgeous and majestic than when she left.

Soon an attendant came out to invite her.

She maintained her demeanor and stepped into the main hall of Yiyuan, only to see Chu Huanian sitting on the dragon chair, the stupid prince in the past, at this time, he was graceful, and between his demeanor, he had a bit of Chu Yunjian's charm back then.

And the woman sitting next to him is graceful and elegant, it is his queen Li Aohan.

Zhang Wanli made a big salute, but before she could speak, Chu Huanian smiled first: "I and Miss Shen are also old friends. Unexpectedly, the clever little girl back then turned out to be the empress of Da Wei. Shibei should be impressed for three days, and the ancients did not deceive me. ”

Zhang Wanli smiled, "After all, the empress is a native of Chu, and when she thinks of the goodness of Chu, she often says that she wants to go to her hometown in person, talk with Your Majesty at night, and talk about wine." ”

She paused, although her eyes were half-lowered, she still paid attention to Chu Huanian's expression from the afterglow, "The empress knows that the emperor is often worried about the southwest and the southern barbarians, so she sent Weichen to solve this trouble with Your Majesty." ”

"Oh?" Chu Huanian played with an iron ruyi and squinted with a smile.

"Hua Rongzhan led the army to be stationed in the southwest, single-handedly controlling the Nanban, and over the years, he seemed to be ready to go north to attack the capital at any time. The empress of my family is willing to pacify the southwest for Your Majesty, and form an alliance with Your Majesty to guarantee mutual non-aggression within fifty years, and can also jointly resist the invasion of the Great Zhou. ”

Chu Huanian rubbed the floating lines on Tie Ruyi's surface, and his smile was still gentle, "But as far as I know, now Da Wei is clearly a fish on the chopping board and meat under a knife. The army of Great Wei has no grain and grass, and the people of Great Wei have no rice and grain. What an alliance, it's really ridiculous and generous. ”

The civil and military officials on both sides of the hall all chuckled.

Zhang Wanli stood in the hall with her hands in her hands, neither humble nor arrogant: "Although there is a shortage of grain and grass, there is no problem in leveling the Chu State. Although the rice grain is not enough, it is enough to fight against the water. ”

In the Jinluan Palace, it was quiet.

Chu Hua laughed young, "What, are you threatening me?" ”
