Chapter 16: A Visit
Lin Ye was about to say something, when the person he was holding in his arms suddenly moved.
Xu Yingying was awakened by the sound of conversation.
She slowly opened her beautiful eyes and looked around blankly.
This is...... The Xu family?
With a light movement of her eyes, she saw the person holding her, and Xu Yingying suddenly remembered everything that happened before she fell asleep.
Her cheeks flushed, and she jerked her hand up!
There was a crunch snap!
On Lin Ye's face, five clear fingerprints fell.
There was silence in the hall.
"Warbler!"
A loud shout fell.
Xu Yingying shuddered and suddenly came back to her senses.
She looked at her father aggrievedly.
The reason why Xu Yingying hit people was just because she felt too ashamed.
Although she also knew that she was drugged at the time, she didn't expect that the prince would use that method to help her with the medicine.
Although the emperor had issued a holy decree, he remembered himself......
Xu Yingying felt embarrassed.
Besides, there are so many people standing in this hall now.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, please forgive me, the warbler has just woken up, and I don't know what happened."
"I accidentally injured your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we ...... We ......"
"Nothing."
Lin Ye raised his hand to wipe his face, and looked at Xu Yingying lying in his arms with a gloomy face.
Xu Yingying also realized that she had made a big mistake and did not dare to speak up.
Sensing that Lin Ye's gaze fell on her, Xu Yingying gritted her teeth and struggled in Lin Ye's arms.
Her clothes had been properly dressed, and Lin Ye saw that she could act, but she didn't insist.
He gently lowered the person.
Xu Yingying knelt down with her father.
Seeing this, Lin Ye sighed and waved his hand.
"It's okay, I'm just having the pleasure of the boudoir between our young couple, I don't care about you with this slap."
"I will tell my father and ask him to marry us as soon as possible."
When Xu Yingying heard this, her face turned red.
She bit her lip and didn't make a sound.
General Xu turned his head to look at his daughter.
He thought that Xu Yingying would react at this time, but seeing his daughter like this, this is admitting?
General Xu sighed secretly, didn't say much, only bowed to Lin Ye again.
"Then I'll go back, that girl slapped me just now...... Don't say it! ”
"Otherwise, don't blame me for curing your sins!"
Before leaving, Lin Ye warned again.
General Xu hurriedly responded.
Lin Ye snorted coldly, turned around and left in a hurry.
When Lin Ye's car disappeared outside the Xu family's mansion, General Xu pulled his daughter up.
"I'll give you an explanation for today's events."
"Your aunt, I will never spare her."
"Also, this marriage ......"
"Daddy......"
Xu Yingying interrupted General Xu's words when she opened her mouth, and General Xu was stunned.
"I promised."
Xu Yingying turned her head to look at the door of the mansion.
There was a thoughtful look in her eyes.
"This prince is extraordinary."
"Dad, do you know who is the person who won the first place in today's Wenhui Wen Competition?"
General Xu's eyes moved, and she seemed to think of something.
She immediately looked up at Xu Yingying, who nodded.
"That's him."
"Dad, do you still remember what you told me yesterday that this prince turned the tide in the main hall and forced the envoys of the Yan Kingdom to agree to stop the war for ten years?"
"I guess this prince was probably hiding before!"
"So, if we bet on him......"
General Xu narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a low voice.
"Maybe it's possible."
"This prince has a bad relationship with the second prince and the third prince, father, if you want to get the military power in the hands of the third prince's grandfather."
"Seeking refuge in the crown prince, or the second prince, is an excellent choice."
"Now that the emperor has issued an edict, I ...... also"
Speaking of this, Xu Yingying's cheeks flew a thin red.
"Okay, then I will enter the palace tomorrow to discuss the date of the marriage with His Majesty."
Xu Yingying breathed a sigh of relief and responded.
She discussed the matter of the camp with General Xu again, and it was not until it was getting dark that she returned to her bedroom.
Lying down on the soft couch in the room, Xu Yingying's mind flashed the scenes that happened during the day.
She breathed a sigh of relief and lifted her hand to press her heart.
"The Prodigal Son......"
The red lips opened lightly, and she muttered in a low voice, and a smile appeared in Xu Yingying's eyes that she hadn't even noticed.
When Lin Ye returned to the Prince's Mansion, he asked someone to call Chu Xue.
Since this woman had already pledged her allegiance, it was only natural that she should serve him with all her heart.
It's been cold in the past few days, Lin Ye asked Chu Xue to warm his bed every day, Chu Xue dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so he could only pretend to be bowing down and serve Lin Ye.
Seeing that Lin Ye came back today, with a look of exhaustion on his face, Chu Xue asked curiously.
"Didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince go to see off the envoys of the Yan Kingdom today? Why did you not come back until this time? ”
"This is my private matter, don't ask more."
Lin Ye frowned and reprimanded, and when Chu Xue heard this, he hurriedly responded in panic.
Seeing this, Lin Ye waved his hand at Chu Xue.
Chu Xue bit her red lip lightly and retreated to the inner room of the bedroom.
The screen blocked Chu Xue's view, and Lin Ye was the only one left outside the bedroom.
Lin Ye came to the table and sat down, poured himself a cup of hot tea, and was about to bring it to his lips, when Lin Ye suddenly remembered something.
He shook the teacup lightly, and called the servants waiting outside the hall.
"Change a cup of tea, the tea aroma of this tea is too light, like old tea."
When the subordinates heard this, they hurriedly responded.
Chu Xue heard this in the inner room, and her eyes sank slightly.
There was chronic poison in that teapot.
Since she was summoned into the bedroom by the prince and served her closely, it became more and more convenient for her to do something to the prince.
As a result, he did not expect that this prince would be more vigilant than before.
Was it his own actions that made the prince realize that something was wrong?
How could it be otherwise......
Even if he was clumsy, he used to do it himself, and if the other party noticed it, it was impossible to let himself poison that meal.
Chu Xue's mood was complicated, and she became more and more nervous.
Fortunately, Lin Ye only let people change the teapot, but did not enter the inner room to question her.
The night passed.
The next day, after Lin Ye asked the people in the palace about the various arrangements of the military department in recent days, he prepared to enter the palace to see Emperor Zhou.
Although the envoys of the Yan State were willing to stop the war for ten years, they were just as Lin Ye had thought before.
Lin Ye didn't think that the envoys of the Yan Kingdom would suffer this loss.
Before the Yan people made a move, he had to think of ways to help Zhou improve his military strength.
He had already inquired about the people in the house.
Now the armament of the Zhou State is weak, and although there are strong troops stationed on the border, the weapons in the hands of those soldiers and horses are some long knives and spears that he thinks are a little rudimentary.
Compared to firearms, the lethality is too small.
If a firearm can be manufactured, whether it is an artillery or an assault rifle, once it is in the world, it will definitely be able to stabilize the formation.
There are those firearms in front.
Even if Yan Guo really repented and sent a large army to suppress the formation, Zhou Guo could also deal with the fierce Yan State army with very few soldiers and horses.
Last night, Lin Ye had already thought about it and came up with a simple composition of the artillery and assault gun.
I happened to go to the palace today and dedicated the composition to Emperor Zhou.
Lin Ye called someone and prepared the carriage.
