The night wind was very strong, and the mountains and forests in the distance were rustled by the wind. In such a silent night, it was extraordinarily clear.
Chu Qingyan stood alone on the tower and looked into the distance.
There, there are people she loves.
In two more days, she will be able to leave here to meet him again. I heard that he had beaten the Nancang Army to pieces in just a few days, which made her extremely proud, as if she had done it herself.
Huo Ling couldn't find anyone anywhere, and finally went up to the tower with a sincere reminder. When he walked up the stairs and turned around, he saw a red-clothed girl in a dazzling red dress, more dazzling than the full moon in the sky.
When Chu Qingyan heard the sound and turned around, she saw Huo Ling walking slowly, and couldn't help smiling, "What's the matter?"
Originally, Huo Ling was sent to the west to face Junlan Kingdom, but in the end, Big Ice Cube thought about it and sent a letter to ask him to help her. How worried Big Ice Cube was about her.
"General Yunfeng sent someone to ask, what are your plans next?"
Chu Qingyan pondered for a while before saying, "Let Fangliu withdraw the troops stationed in the town, and leave the cleaning work to the people of Yunfeng. We will gather the army tomorrow, and we will set off to meet His Highness the day after tomorrow."
Now that the Loulan army has been driven out, the remaining soldiers and generals, she believes that with Yunfeng's ability can be cleaned up, there is no need for them to stay here.
"This subordinate will go down and order." Huo Ling got the order and prepared to go back.
But before taking two steps, he was stopped by the little princess.
"Is there another order from the little princess?" Huo Ling immediately walked back and asked in confusion.
At that moment just now, a sense of unease suddenly appeared in her heart, and she felt inexplicable heart palpitations for some unknown reason.
"Let Jinxin and Fang stay here, and don't rush to give instructions."
Huo Ling was a little surprised when the little princess suddenly calmed down, but he did not express any objection, but immediately followed her instructions and went down to call someone.
The little princess has always had her own reasons for doing things, and what they have to do is to obey.
The footsteps gradually faded away, and Chu Qingyan looked up at the night sky. The moon was as round as a disk, and the clouds were shrouded in mist.
Where do you start to feel wrong? She couldn't tell, but she always felt that something was going to happen.
This is a woman's sixth sense.
Unfounded, but horribly accurate.
Chu Qingyan, who was far in the south, did not expect that her sixth sense was right.
In the brightly lit mansion, Xiao Xu sat indifferently, his eyes skipped the gauze bandaged by the person in front of him, and then lowered his head and drank tea without asking any questions.
This is a relatively intact mansion in Haiyu City, and it is also the place where Xiao Ran stayed temporarily.
Xiao Ran looked at Xiao Xu who hadn't spoken since he came in and bowed to each other, his eyes were fixed, and he used the action of drinking tea to dilute the restlessness in his heart.
After putting down the teacup, Xiao Ran took the initiative to mention it, with a warm smile in his eyes, "Brother Huang, I invited you here to thank you for allocating half of your troops to help me pursue the remnants of Nancang."
When Xiao Xu heard the words, he just took a sip of tea. He put down the teacup, but didn't put it on the table. He still held it with one hand, and lightly tugged the tea leaves with the other.
The reason why Xiao Ran said this was because a spies suddenly came to report last night that some of the Nancang Army had been hidden in the mountains and had not been cleaned up. The energy is divided up and the horses are chased, so he can only ask Xiao Xu.
Xiao Xu asked Tu Ling to verify that the situation was true, so he asked Wu Lin to go with 30,000 horses.
But Xiao Xu didn't think that Xiao Ran was just for this matter. After he answered, he continued to drink tea, as if he was wholeheartedly focused on tasting the tea.
Originally, the two of them had nothing to say after going through so many things, and now they are in the same room again, which is very embarrassing, but this may be for Xiao Ran unilaterally, and Xiao Xu's performance is calm and alienated.
In the past, what Xiao Ran admired most was his calm demeanor, but now, what he disliked most was his calmness.
It turns out that when you feel disgusted with a person, no matter how well the person does, it will become your most annoying existence.
Xiao Ran restrained himself from expressing his emotions, and said with a mournful smile, "Brother Huang is too modest, but there is one more thing I need to discuss with Brother Huang here."
Finally got to say the purpose.
There was a hint of irony in Xuan Mo's eyes, and it quickly disappeared into the corner of his eyes. He put the teacup on the table and turned his eyes to the person who smiled but said, "But it doesn't matter."
Xiao Ran was stunned by his indifference, but then he remembered the business, and he could not help but stabilize his mind, and then said the words that had been brewed, "Didn't the emperor recruit some people some time ago? Now the Nancang Army and Loulan Army have been driven out. Leaving the country is not something to be afraid of, but many of our cities have been destroyed, and the ministers and brothers want these people to build cities and rebuild homes for the people, what do you think of the emperor's brother?"
Xiao Xu's eyes flickered, and as he expected, after the enemy army was resolved, they decided to hit his new recruit immediately.
The person in front of him didn't answer immediately, Xiao Ran thought he didn't agree, and continued to say, "These people are all the people of Xixuan, and the emperor recruited them privately in his own name. Although it was understandable that the situation was critical at the time, the dust has basically settled now. , we have to start thinking about the funeral, the royal brother can't make them up, if they can justifiably belong to the three armies, they would be more than happy to come."
Xiao Xu tapped lightly on the table with his fingers, and there was neither anger nor joy in his eyes, making Xiao Ran unsure.
"At the beginning, they were recruited in the name of support. As you said, they should indeed be given an identity."
When Xiao Ran thought he wouldn't speak, he threw out these words in a calm voice.
Xiao Ran didn't react, or he was a little stunned when he agreed so readily, "What do you mean?"
"After a meeting, this king will let people send the soldier talismans, but—"
Seeing that he had obtained the military talisman so easily, Xiao Ran was overjoyed, but was quickly hooked by his unfinished words, "Brother Huang, please speak."
"There are only half of them in the vicinity of Haiyu City, and the other half are on their way to Huaxingzhou. I am afraid that you will not be able to see them until the war with Junlan Kingdom is completely over."
Xiao Ran was very shocked after hearing this. He didn't expect that he recruited so many troops this time. He thought that Haiyucheng was all, but he didn't expect it to be half. Suddenly, he could understand why the father was so anxious to let him take action. It turned out to be Because I am worried that the emperor has such a big appeal.
After leaving the mansion, recalling Xiao Ran's words, Xiao Xu's expression suddenly became cold, I am afraid that he has already been calculated.
