After days of eating and sleeping in the open air, even Xiao Lingjiang inevitably felt a little tired, so she rested for a night, and she felt that she was tired and refreshed.

In Liangzhou, it is the early morning wind, which is a little dry and dusty.

Xiao Lingjiang took the sword and found a vacant place to make a few moves with Pei You. The two intersected with each other, and between the swords and swords, they had a good time.

I haven't done it for a long time, but this time, I don't feel that my muscles and bones are a little looser. She took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat on her sideburns, and Fang and Pei You went into the flower hall to eat.

After breakfast, the two of them each brewed a bowl of Sanbao tea, but a bowl of tea had not yet bottomed out, so Qingzhu recently said: "Princess, prince, Duan Thorn Shi and Liangzhou Governor Guo Xiaoxing ask to see." ”

"Oh?" Xiao Lingjiang raised his eyebrows and looked at Pei You with a smile, "I haven't gone to see them yet, but I didn't think about it, they came first." ”

Pei You smiled when he heard this: "I just don't know if these two are really like the information sent by the secret agent." ”

They had already sent people to check on Duan Xu, the assassin of Liangzhou, and Guo Xiaoxing, the governor of Liangzhou.

The former is in charge, tactful, shrewd and capable, although he is not clean and clean, but he is also honest and honest; The latter is in charge of the army, has been on the battlefield for a long time, brave and good at fighting, and Liangzhou can still be safe under the invasion of Xifan and the Western Regions, and he has made great contributions.

It's just that hearing is better than seeing, and what the two of them are like can only be known if they have gotten along in person.

"Then invite someone in and take a look." Xiao Lingjiang raised his hand and motioned for Qingzhu to invite people in.

After a while, I saw Qingzhu leading two men into the flower hall.

The middle-aged man in blue and yellow clothes on the left is Duan Xu, who he saw yesterday, so the one on the right wearing the civilian clothes of a military general must be Guo Xiaoxing, the governor of Liangzhou.

I saw that he was about forty years old, eight feet long, tall and mighty, wearing military armor, and there was a solemn aura on the battlefield between his steps.

As he got closer, Xiao Lingjiang noticed that his eyebrows and eyes were much deeper than those of ordinary Zhou people, and there was also some dark green color in his pupils.

That's it...... Guo Xiaoxing is of Hu blood.

It is reported that his mother was Hu Ji, who was taken captive by the Xifan soldiers when she came to Zhou to follow her father to the merchants, but fortunately she was rescued by a soldier stationed in Liangzhou at that time, so she was saved from being ruined.

That soldier is Guo Xiaoxing's father.

The two later fell in love and got married.

It's a pity that when Xifan used troops against Liangzhou, the war raged, and Guo Xiaoxing's father spilled blood on the battlefield to protect the people in Liangzhou, leaving the woman alone and pulling the child to grow up.

Even if there is a pension from the imperial court, it is not easy for orphans and widows to survive in this Liangzhou city. Guo Xiaoxing joined the army as a teenager, from a small leader soldier to a general stationed on one side today.

Two generations of father and son, both guarding Liangzhou.

Xiao Lingjiang also knew more about him in his heart.

"Meet the princess!" The two stepped forward and bowed, and when they saw that Pei Yu was here early in the morning, although they had doubts, they did not show it, "Pei Shizi." ”

Pei You bowed slightly when he heard this.

Xiao Lingjiang raised his hand and gently held up the wrists of the two with Xuanli: "You two don't have to be polite. ”

This skill alone should not be underestimated.

Duan Xu and Guo Xiaoxing glanced at each other, straightened up, and said with a smile: "Please forgive me, princess, yesterday Guo Dudu led his troops to inspect, so he never greeted the princess in person." No, I heard that the princess had arrived in Liangzhou, and he hurried back overnight before he had time to change his clothes, so he hurried to meet the princess. ”

Guo Xiaoxing also bowed his hand: "Princess, please forgive me." ”

Xiao Lingjiang smiled when he heard this: "Where did the two of you say, patrolling the border is a big deal, if it is delayed because of me, it will make me panic." ”

She raised her hand and motioned, "Please be seated." ”

Seeing the two of them seated, Qiong Zhi hurriedly stepped forward to pour tea for the two.

Duan Xu and Guo Xiaoxing drank tea while chatting with Xiao Lingjiang about what they had seen and heard along the way from Yingdu.

After two breaks of water in the pot, the two still did not say goodbye.

Xiao Lingjiang couldn't help but be happy in her heart, these two people made it clear that they didn't just come to see her.

From what I saw and heard along the way, talked about her past deeds, and talked about the Yingdu court, I obviously had other plans in my heart, but I kept talking about other things.

After drinking so much water, the two of them didn't feel anxious? Thanks to these two people who can sit still.

She put down the teacup and flicked her sleeves: "We talked a lot, the two of you still have government affairs to deal with, if there is nothing to do, I won't delay the time of the two of you here." ”

As she spoke, she smiled and pointed to the teapot on the table: "This tea, it's enough to drink two pots today, and if I drink it again, I can't bear it......"

It was a joke, but Duan Xu and Guo Xiaoxing couldn't help but blush when they heard it.

Thinking about it, this Princess Yongan also saw that their trip was not pure. It's just that both sides are testing each other, and no one has taken the initiative to expose it.

Now that she was poked by her, Duan Xu was only embarrassed for a moment, and then got up with a smile: "It's been bothering the princess for a long time, so the ministers and others will leave first......"

However, when his voice fell, Guo Xiaoxing saw his hand and asked: "I have heard about the princess's deeds in the past, and when we meet and talk today, I know that the princess's heart, vision, and means are very accessible." ”

"The last general dared to ask, this is pro-Xifan, but is it really the princess's own invitation?"

Xiao Lingjiang didn't hide it from him, and said honestly: "The matter of harmony was not what the palace wanted before, but the covenant was established, and it was not impossible to come on this trip." ”

Guo Xiaoxing frowned: "Although the last general has lived in the northwest frontier for a long time, he has also heard of the misfortune of the Divine Palace, and he knows the ambitions of Xifan even better. The covenant with relatives can't be compared to the ambition of the wolf son of Xifan, but it is just to give the enemy a chance to recuperate. ”

"Since the princess can punish the Divine Palace, save Yaocheng, and fix the wasteland, then she should know that she is a great trouble for the Divine Palace and Xifan. You've always been smart, so you didn't know that this trip was dangerous? ”

Xiao Lingjiang sighed: "I know." ”

"If you know, why do you know why?" Guo Xiaoxing's brows became tighter and tighter.

A wise man is not in danger, and the son of a daughter does not sit in danger.

Princess Yong'an's move really hit the enemy's hands.

She looked at Guo Xiaoxing's brows that were almost locked, and asked rhetorically: "The governor is fighting on the battlefield, swords and swords, there are killing opportunities everywhere, and every step can be killed, why do you stick to this?" ”

Why?

Naturally, it is to guard the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty and protect the people of Liangzhou.

For the soldiers who rushed to the battlefield, only by putting themselves in the killing machine can they get life for the people, and only by putting themselves to death can they win victory for the country.

And what about her?

The princess of a country and the unparalleled mystery, why do you have to face many killing opportunities and go to a foreign land thousands of miles?

Guo Xiaoxing's heart was shocked: "The princess wants to take the opportunity of peace and affection to go deep into the hinterland of Xibo and disturb the situation in Xifan?" ”

In this way, jackals, tigers and leopards are not to be feared, and the people and the country are naturally safe.
