Fifty miles south of Chang'an City.

This place still belongs to the scope of Chang'an City, but the surrounding area is already seen as a village, and there is no prosperity of Chang'an City, but there are still many merchants on the customs road who are transporting goods to Chang'an City.

Now, in addition to the inside of Chang'an City, the outside has also begun to flourish, along the surrounding city walls, a lot of land has been utilized, and these places have also become markets outside the city.

Although they sell inexpensive items, many people in the city are willing to come out and buy things, mainly because these things outside the city are relatively cheap, and if you are lucky, you can buy the same thing for half the money.

"Feeling a little excited?"

Cheng Ying pretended to be a young man at the moment, following around Li Xiang, plus this armor, although it seemed a bit laborious, but it couldn't be seen as a woman.

"I used to go to the army a lot, but I didn't really go to the battlefield, and it seems that the army at that time is not the same as the army now."

After entering this army, Cheng Ying's first feeling was that the army had changed, and it had changed very much, just take these guards around Li Xiang as an example, they looked very strong, and the most important thing was that there were all kinds of weapons.

The Tang army was able to conquer the world and win the surrounding wars, and if this army did not change, it would definitely not be possible to achieve so many victories.

"Everything has to be developed, if we stop moving, let alone expand the scope of control, it is very likely that our own land will also be swallowed by others, take the swords they use, I don't know how much more advanced than the original time, although I don't approve of them engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, but if it really comes to that point, we can cut off their weapons with a single sword, then what do you say are our chances of winning?"

The journey was very boring, the two of them rode forward while riding horses, according to Li Xiang's plan today, they had to walk at least eighty kilometers to be able to rest, which was already not fast, if it was Huo Quai's soldiers, two hundred kilometers a day would not be a problem.

But many people around are the army in Chang'an City, many of them are relatively wealthy at home, after receiving the order this time, many people still want to steal and play tricks, but Li Xiang made them stunned with a word, if anyone is sick at this time, then immediately leave the army and be demoted to the common people.

Although he is now just an ordinary auxiliary soldier in the army, he at least leads the court, if he leaves the army like this, it will be the same as ordinary people, how can this work?

Although they are reluctant to go to the battlefield, they are even more reluctant to lose this identity, not to mention diverging their thinking and following His Royal Highness Taisun to the battlefield, basically there will be no danger, and they can get a lot of benefits, the most important thing is that your credit will not be greedy by others, if you really have a size credit on the battlefield in the future, it will be regarded as a glorious ancestor.

Therefore, these people also put their minds to follow Li Xiang to the southern battlefield to fight, maybe they will be able to fight back for a title, and then at least three generations of descendants will not have to worry about it.

"What His Highness said makes sense, I don't know where the concubines can follow His Highness? I'm thinking about going to the real battlefield, and you can't leave me in Nanzhao, right? ”

Cheng Ying said with some worry, if you stay in Nanzhao Kingdom, it is still far from the battlefield, originally Li Xiang did have this thought, although Li Xiang respected women, but he never thought that his women would go to the battlefield, after all, the sword on the battlefield has no eyes, even if it leaves a scar, this is a lifelong regret.

No, after Cheng Ying walked for a while, at least he didn't find anything wrong for these dozens of kilometers, which shows that his physical fitness is very good, since this is the case, then let Cheng Ying follow him to the battlefield, anyway, the place where he is is is also very safe, once he encounters something urgent, look at Cheng Ying like this, you can still discuss it.

"In the first three days, we have to travel one hundred and fifty miles every day, and as long as you don't go to the carriage and ride with me every day, and you can persevere, then I can take you wherever I go, but there is one thing I must say first, everything must listen to me when I get to the battlefield."

After listening to Li Xiang's words, Cheng Ying also nodded, is this a matter of fact? When I was a child, I often used to ride on horseback, and although I didn't ride a horse for a long time, there are some skills that I will never forget.

In addition, this girl also has some careful thoughts, if it is placed in Nanzhao Wangcheng, it is impossible to accompany Li Xiang, and after returning to the capital, it is even more impossible for her to have Li Xiang, to be able to be with Li Xiang more, isn't this belly fast?

"That's fine, but my two maids can only ride in a carriage, and they are not like me."

Cheng Ying looked back and saw that Li Xiang's carriage was pulling behind, now from Chang'an City to Nanzhao Wangcheng, the wide cement road has been repaired, and the government along the way has already sealed the road in different periods of time when Li Xiang led the army, so that it can reach one hundred and fifty miles a day.

"They don't have such training, so naturally they are not included in this assessment, but they can only stay in Nanzhao Wangcheng, if you follow me to set off, then you will have to endure hardships on the road, and you have to do everything yourself."

After leaving the Nanzhao Royal City, Li Xiang with Cheng Ying alone can still guarantee safety, if there are a lot of maids and entourage, is this really going to the front line to fight? At that time, Li Xiang really felt that it was inappropriate.

"Your Highness, rest assured, Ying'er didn't suffer before, and I'm not a real eldest lady."

When Cheng Ying said this, her face was inevitably a little lost, which is also a normal thing, when Cheng Bitingjin's sister-in-law and daughter-in-law had not yet been born, Cheng Ying's status in the family was okay, but when those sisters-in-law and concubines were born, the concubine naturally had to lean back, this is not the situation of Cheng Bitingjin's family, this is the situation of every family.

"Don't worry, except for the position, everything else is equal, and the time you have been with me is not short, you still understand how I behave."

We can't decide the official positions in the court, but we must treat everyone equally in life.
