Xu Jing's cheeks were slightly hot, pushed away the man who came to her facelessly, and said in a low voice: "The long smile is still there, be serious." ”

Xiao Yi took the opportunity to take her hand, supported his forehead with the other hand, lay down sideways beside her, glanced past her at Xiao Budian, who was sleeping unconsciously, and smiled softly, "He slept soundly, don't worry." Ah Jing, in fact, you are angry with me, I am very happy. ”

Xu Jing glanced at him coldly.

So, he meant, shouldn't she have relented so quickly and forgiven him?

Xiao Yi saw the woman's eyes, the corners of his mouth rose more and more, he lowered his head and kissed her hand gently, and said in a low voice: "I know, you are worried about me because you are angry that I told you about this so late."

But in the early stage, although I had already decided to go on the expedition with Liang Guogong, I was not completely sure when and where I would go, until this morning, our spies sent a letter to confirm that the Jiang family was indeed heading to the territory of the Pinglu Jiedu envoy and the Beiting Jiedu envoy, and finally decided to go on tomorrow's expedition.

I really didn't mean to hide it from you. ”

Xu Jing was silent for a moment, then turned around, facing Xiao Yi, and said softly: "I can also guess the general situation, you don't have to explain it to me all the time." I just want to know, have you ever estimated how long this battle will be fought, and how dangerous it will be...... Is it big or not? ”

Xiao Yi looked at the woman in front of him without blinking, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth brought a hint of helplessness, "I don't want to lie to you, there is no undangerous battle in this world, but I promise you, no matter what, I will definitely return to you and Changxiao."

As for how long this battle will last, I have indeed estimated that looking at the current situation, the troops taken away by the Jiang family are about 200,000, plus the troops of the Pinglu Jiedu envoy and the Beiting Jiedu envoy, a total of more than 400,000 troops.

In terms of troops, our side will not lose to them, but sometimes it is not the strength of troops that determines everything. It is precisely because the Jiang family also thought of the disparity in strength that they wanted to support Guangming Tang to win the army's right to supply medicine at the beginning, they should have wanted to do something in the medicine for the army, first weaken the combat effectiveness of our side, and then when the incident started, they would catch us off guard. ”

Xu Jing's face was slightly gloomy, "But this plan of the Jiang family has been destroyed by us." ”

"That's right, the Jiang family must hate you and me in their hearts. Moreover, this time they were forced to start in such a hurry, if it wasn't for the former Hedong Jiedu envoy who exposed them, they would not have taken off all their disguises so quickly, although their actions were very fast this time, but it was purely a broken jar, and their preparation was actually very insufficient. ”

Xiao Yi said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "This point is very important to us, and if we make good use of this, we may be able to find a breakthrough to completely defeat them." But I never dared to underestimate the Jiang family, they have been dormant for so many years, and even if they are forced to a dead end, they will not give up easily. What worries me most now is that they will unite with the Aliens against us, or use the Aliens to contain us. ”

Xu Jing couldn't help but think of Jiang Yu's appearance when he came to her, and he was clearly still confident and confident.

She didn't know if it was because Jiang Yu was unwilling to show his vulnerable side in front of her, or because of what they had done, so even if they were forced to flee Xijing in advance, they were not in a hurry at all, and a trace of uneasiness suddenly rose in her heart, and she frowned slightly: "That's really what they might do, so do you have to lead the troops over as soon as possible?" ”

Xiao Yi and the others have been secretly investigating the Jiang family during this time, if they had been in contact with foreign clans before, they should have been able to find some clues.

Xiao Yi didn't say anything, which showed that the Jiang family probably didn't think about using the power of foreign clans before.

After all, according to their previous calculations, they did not need to cooperate with those treacherous and cruel aliens, and they were likely to succeed in rebellion on their own.

But if they hadn't been in contact with those foreign clans before, they wouldn't have reached cooperation so quickly, and what Xiao Yi had to do was to win this war as soon as possible before they could do anything.

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "That's right, this war must end as soon as possible." This is not only to prevent the Jiang family from cooperating with those foreign clans, but also to prevent the side of the festival to make the vassal king have other thoughts. ”

After all, although the other Jiedu envoys guaranteed that they were loyal to the imperial court, it was also a guarantee made under the premise that they were half threatening and half persuasing.

If they show weakness in the battle with the Jiang family, who knows if they will also be rebellious.

"So ......"

Xiao Yi suddenly let go of the hand holding Xu Jing, raised his hand and gently pressed her eyebrows, and said with a little distress and apology in his voice: "I estimate that this war will not last too long, at most not more than half a year, which is also the goal of me and Liang Guogong."

But...... I can't make a promise to you, after all, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and I can only guarantee that I will definitely return to you and Changxiao. ”

Half a year......

Xu Jing's eyes drooped slightly.

She is not inseparable, and Xiao Yi may not feel anything in her heart when she goes out on business for a few months on weekdays.

But half a year is still too long.

What's more, Xiao Yat is not going to an ordinary business trip, but to fight, it is conceivable that in the past six months, it will be a little difficult.

Seeing that Xu Jing didn't speak for a long time, Xiao Yi helplessly raised the corners of his mouth, leaned over and kissed the corners of her mouth, and said softly: "I'm sorry, Ah Jing." ”

After all, it still can't make you live a peaceful and peaceful life.

The two of them were close to each other all of a sudden, forehead to forehead, warm breath blending together.

The corners of Xu Jing's mouth twitched slightly, and after a while, she raised her eyes to look at the eyes of the man in front of her, and said, "Do you know why I forgave you so quickly?" ”

At this point, Xiao Yi was also curious, "Why?" ”

Obviously, when she was in the Zhao family, she still ignored him.

"Because, just now he said with a long smile that the big bad guy is coming, and he is very afraid. Not only is he very afraid, but Aunt Cen, sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, and many more people, must be also afraid. Our peaceful life does not mean that we can have it if we want to have it, this country, after all, needs someone to stand up and protect it, not you, but others.

There was even a moment when I was glad that that person was you, and if it was you, I could trust and trust that our peaceful life would not be easily broken.

For you like this, I am more distressed and grateful, how can I be willing to be angry? ”

In such an intimate state, Xu Jing felt that she was also much more frank, stared at the man in front of her who obviously had a slightly moving face, and said seriously: "Moreover, you are leaving tomorrow, I don't want to be angry with you on the last day."

Yan Ci, you must be good and return safely, otherwise, I won't care about you, and go directly to live by yourself with a long smile. ”
