"Understood, sir."

The steward answered, and turned to leave.

Yang Yuhuan shrank in the quilt, poked out his little head, his immature face was red, and asked with some curiosity:

"Xiangye, does Your Majesty agree to you marrying the eldest princess of the Zhou Kingdom?"

Fang Xiu gently knocked on her little braincase, and said angrily: "Adults, children, don't care!" ”

Yang Yuhuan pursed his lips and whispered: "The slave family is not a child, and has grown up a lot......"

Fang Xiuquan didn't understand the meaning of her words, and advised: "Don't think about it all day, take care of your illness, and come to see you in the evening." ”

After speaking, he touched her little head and turned to leave.

"Xiangye is coming at night?"

"It's fun!"

Yang Yuhuan's eyes were shining, and he was excited in his heart, holding the quilt and rolling around on the bed, it took a while to regain his calm.

Although she knew in her heart that Xiangye just said casually, even if he came, he would just look at her and wouldn't do anything.

Even so, she was still looking forward to it, with a pair of beautiful eyes watery.

Ben wanted to get up and practice the dong flute.

But he was afraid of being seen by Fang Xiu, so after thinking about it, he decided to shrink into the quilt.

Picked up the book "Qi Nourishing Technique" that was placed on the head of the bed and continued to read.

The other side.

Fang Xiu left the room, summoned Shangguan Haitang, and asked, "Can you find out who is Li Yingyue in the mission?" ”

Shangguan Haitang, dressed in a white shirt, stood there, holding a folding fan in his hand, and replied:

"She lives in the south courtyard of Yingchun Garden, in the third room, she rarely appears on weekdays, and when she appears, she dresses up as a maid."

As he spoke, he took out a portrait from his arms, presented it to Fang Xiu, and said, "This is her portrait." ”

Fang Xiu stretched out his hand to take it and looked at it roughly.

With a melon seed face, phoenix eyes, and thin lips, he looks like a person with a cold temperament.

"Send more people and keep an eye on her!"

Fang Xiu casually put away the portrait, looked at Shangguan Haitang, and commanded.

Shangguan Haitang responded:

"Yes, master!"

After hesitating for a moment, he said:

"The eldest princess of Zhou is not at ease, and after only three days of coming to Chang'an, she began to investigate your plan and the background of the lowly people.

Do you want to give her some pain? ”

Fang Xiufeng said lightly: "It's just a turtle in the urn, don't worry about her, as long as you don't leave Chang'an City, do whatever she wants!" ”

"Yes, master!"

Shangguan Haitang held a folding fan, clasped his hands into fists, and bowed.

Fang Xiu glanced at her and asked with some curiosity, "What are you doing with a folding fan this season?" ”

Shangguan Haitang explained: "I am used to lowly duties, even in winter. ”

Fang Xiu nodded, didn't say anything, waved his hand and said, "Go down." ”

"Yes!"

Shangguan Haitang saluted and turned to leave.

Fang Xiu looked at her back, and couldn't help but think of Li Yinyue's portrait.

sighed:

"I don't look like a fool, how could I think of throwing myself into the net......"

Think so.

Fang Xiu shook his head, left her alone, turned around and went back to the house, and continued his planning.

............

Chang'an City, Yingchun Garden.

This is the post house where the great cadres receive foreign envoys.

Although it is not as good as the mansion of the princes and nobles, it can be regarded as magnificent.

Now.

The South Garden of Yingchun Garden.

In a room somewhere.

The eldest princess of Zhou sat on the Taishi chair, holding a map of the three kingdoms of Qian, Zhou and Wu in her hand, and looked at it quietly.

His eyes were full of coldness, and his expression was neither happy nor sad.

Winter, winter, winter!

There was a knock on the door.

The voice of the maid followed.

"Your Highness, the slave has something to tell you."

Li Yingyue didn't look up, and said, "Come in." ”

The maid pushed open the door, walked in, bowed, and said respectfully:

"Your Highness, the Prime Minister of the Qianguo Kingdom has rejected your invitation."

Li Yingyue seemed to have expected this, her expression did not change in the slightest, she still looked at the map, and said:

"Got it."

The maid paused, and then said:

"The sweet potatoes you asked the slave to check, the slave and the maid checked, and so far, no overseas dealer has heard of this crop."

Hear this.

Li Yingyue's eyes flashed, she raised her eyes to look at the maid, and said:

"Check again."

"Yes! Your Highness! ”

The maid replied and continued:

"Also, the slave maid found that there are three school grounds for the training of the Qianguo New Army, and the nearest one is in the northern suburbs, called the northern suburbs school field, and there is no prohibition on the people from approaching it."

Li Yingyue raised her eyes to look at the maid, her expression was cold, and she ordered: "Prepare it, this palace is going to take a look." ”

The maid hurriedly saluted:

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Half an hour later.

Li Yinyue, who was dressed plainly, came to the northern suburbs of the school.

A pair of phoenix eyes, staring at the new army being trained not far away, his expression was neither happy nor sad.

In the school yard.

The soldiers in standard uniforms stood in a row, blindfolded, and kicked in neat steps, constantly advancing.

In front of them, not far away, there was a deep ditch in which sharpened sticks were inserted.

Whoever falls into it will surely die!

Even so.

These soldiers are still moving forward, and their movements are uniform, as if they were one person!

Blindfold the non-commissioned officers and let them keep moving forward, this kind of training method is also available in the Tiger Ben Army.

The aim is to exercise their courage and obedience.

In the case of invisibility, the fear in the soldier's heart will be constantly magnified.

Especially knowing that there are traps ahead, many people stop in place without taking a few steps, and do not dare to move again.

There are only a handful of people who can make it to the end.

Generally speaking, it is extremely difficult for ordinary non-commissioned officers to go halfway through this kind of training at the beginning of this kind of training.

But these soldiers who have not been recruited for a long time in front of them can go on all the time, and no one is left behind.

This surprised the maid on the side.

Over time.

The soldiers were getting closer and closer to the spiked ditch.

It's only three steps away from falling into it.

Even so, they did not slow down and continued to move forward at the same pace.

Li Yinyue's side.

Seeing this, the maid frowned slightly, and said in her heart: It's all about to fall, why don't you stop?

Think so.

Then I saw the soldiers take another step.

Only two steps away!

Immediately after that, another step was taken.

Just one step away!

The soldiers were half foot in the air, and if they fell, they would fall into the ditch.

At the last moment.

A voice full of majesty sounded in vain.

"Stop!"

Hundreds of soldiers heard the sound and stopped abruptly, half of their feet hanging in the air, motionless.

Behind Li Yingyue, when the maid saw this scene, Tong Kong shrank slightly, and her face showed surprise.

"Stopped at the last minute."

"Last-minute stops."

"They have to trust each other to get to this point!"

The maid sighed in her heart.

That's when it happened.

There was a sudden crackling sound in the school field in the northern suburbs!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Fireworks burst out around the school grounds, making a deafening sound.

Half of the soldiers' feet were still dangling in the air, as if they were still, motionless.

A moment later.

The noise died down.

The voice full of majesty sounded again.

"Retreat!"

The next second.

The soldiers took a step back in unison, stopping in place, moving in unison.

"It's over!"

"Next group!"

When the soldiers heard the order, they all took off the blindfolded cloth, lined up, and turned to leave.

Immediately afterwards, another group of blindfolded soldiers stood not far from the ditch and marched forward.

The maid, seeing this scene, could no longer restrain the shock in her heart, her eyes widened, and her mouth opened slightly.

A word involuntarily came to her mind, leaving her speechless for a long time.

"Order, forbidden!"

If she remembers correctly, the Qianguo New Army has only been formed for two months.

It's unbelievable to be able to train to this level in two months!

"The newly recruited recruits, even if they train every day, shouldn't they be able to reach this realm?"

"Unless they don't practice weapons on weekdays, they only practice queues!"

"But how is this possible?"

Thinking of this, the maid's eyes searched the school grounds, and after searching for a long time, she didn't find a single weapon!

"Could it be that they really don't practice weapons?"

"If you put all your energy into this kind of training, it is not impossible to enforce the ban in two months, but it is just ......"

"What's the point of doing that?"

"What is the use of a group of soldiers who can't use weapons when they go to the battlefield?"

The maid had such doubts in her heart, and subconsciously looked at the eldest princess, wanting to say something.

However, I saw that unfazed face.

He swallowed back what he had wanted to say and remained silent.

Side.

Li Yingyue stood in place, with a pair of phoenix eyes, looking at the soldiers who were training.

There was no expression on his face, but in his heart, he was looking forward to meeting Fang Xiu more and more.

In her eyes, Fang Xiu had too many mysterious and interesting secrets on her body that were worth exploring.

"Fang Xiu ......"

Li Yingyue's eyes flashed, she no longer observed, turned to leave, and said in a cold voice:

"Go home."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The maid answered, and followed her.

The two walked side by side.

Didn't walk for a while.

Li Yinyue seemed to notice something, and slowly stopped, her brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing this, the maid showed a blank look in her eyes and asked, "Your Highness, what's the matter?" ”

Li Yingyue glanced at her and asked coldly, "How long has that person been following?" ”

The maid was slightly stunned, subconsciously looked behind her, and sure enough, she saw a middle-aged woman in a cloth dress.

If memory serves.

When she came, she followed.

Stopping at the school yard for a stick of incense, she even followed behind.

The maid's eyes froze, and she instantly realized that someone was following!

"The slave is derelict in his duty, and the slave and the slave deserve to die."

The maid looked guilty and lowered her voice.

Li Yingyue glanced at her, was silent for a long time, made a decision, and said slowly: "Go to Xiangguo Mansion with this palace." ”
