Chapter 328 Meeting the Beauty
Chapter 328 Meeting the Beauty
Kou Xiao returned to his mission and stayed in the palace for most of the day, locked up with the emperor in the imperial study for some unknown plot, and did not leave the palace until evening.
He hasn't lived in the General's Mansion for a day, it's brand new. Today, when he came out of the palace and walked to the fork in the road, he still thought about going back to the General's Mansion for a night to avoid his reputation, but his horse didn't obey and went straight to the Palace of the King's Mansion. There was no way, so he entered the palace with peace of mind.
Li Xu laughed at him, "When did your horse come to the palace? It can even know the way to the palace, amazing!"
Kou Xiao hugged him tightly, and kissed his brows, eyes and lips deeply, "My horse is connected with me, knowing that I want to come here."
Li Xu laughed softly, "If this goes on like this, we can't hide our relationship."
"Then what should I do? It's impossible for me not to come looking for you, and I can't bear to let you stay in an empty room alone. Is there any way to get the best of both worlds?"
"No." Li Xu is not a person who likes to hide and hide. Since the two of them are not willing to live apart, it doesn't matter. As long as they believe that it is brotherhood, who dares to say that they have an ambiguous relationship.
"How about it, did the emperor believe your words?"
"Half and half, I took people along the way from Xishan to Tongzhou to search, and then went to Cangzhou, Yingchuan and other places. I met many remnants on the way, and I suppressed them by the way, and got all kinds of soldiers from them. All kinds of information, every time I have recorded a statement, and also let the emperor's confidants participate, it is true if no one finds it, and no one can tell whether he is dead or alive."
"Then is this thing over?"
"Zhao Shu and Li Xian's mother and son are both dead. Everyone in his faction is in danger, and they have also sought refuge in other factions. The emperor has not yet started to settle the matter because he has not found the third prince, but it will definitely not be too long. It should be counted by then." Really over."
Li Xu sat aside and sighed to Yue Xing, "Li Xian has been with me ever since I went south. He tried to take my life several times. If it wasn't for my fate, I'm afraid he would have gone to hell long ago. I wouldn't have killed him at all." Don't feel guilty."
Kou Xiao patted his head and said with emotion: "My prince is too kind and merciful. For this kind of person, he should be killed immediately, otherwise he would not be able to stir up these storms."
"Do you think he's a cat or a dog? Kill him if you want?" Back then, Li Xu was rejected by the emperor, who abolished the crown prince and drove him out of the capital. Can he kill the third prince who is in favor?
"Next, it's a great opportunity for us to win over the officials of the Zhao family. The prince doesn't care whether they are fools or not. He can win over all who can. At least let them be sure, who is the biggest winner now."
"No, you won't be the emperor. Although this king seems to have the greatest chance of winning, the emperor has to nod for everything. He absolutely doesn't like to see that the civil and military courts are all biased towards me. This will only be counterproductive."
"Okay, then let's start dealing with the Northwest." Kou Xiao said excitedly, "I haven't been to the real prairie, I haven't seen the yellow sand in the desert, and I haven't collided with the Huns who are notorious." However, it should be a place that every general wants to go and is afraid of.” Compared with the Xiongnu cavalry, the pirates in the south are really nothing to mention, which is why the court didn’t take Nanyue seriously at all. He recruited [-] soldiers, and in the eyes of northerners, they were all mobs.
Li Xu glanced at him, and asked with an inexplicable expression: "Do you really want to go?"
"It...it's impossible to say that you don't want to go, but I can't bear you." Kou Xiao said bluntly.
Li Xu went back to his study, took out a map and began to study it. Dayan's territory is still different from his modern map. The southwest is almost a wasteland, and the south is basically a jungle, with a sparse population. Beyond the Great Wall in the north is the settlement of the Huns and more than a dozen nomads, and the northwest does not extend too far. From the capital to Jiuyuan, where King Zhenbei is located, it takes ten days to arrive.
"Before, Jia Ping revealed that his elder brother's letter from his family mentioned that there would be changes in the Northwest. I thought they would take advantage of the war in Xishan to come after them, but until now, I have not seen their actions. , could it be that Jia Ping made a mistake?"
Kou Xiao approached him and said in a low voice: "There is something I haven't told you yet. Kou's army was hiding near the West Mountain. They once saw a cavalry coming from the northwest, but they didn't enter the West Mountain. They circled around for a while. circle, stopped for a few more days, and then returned, probably sent by the First Prince, but why they didn't do anything, I guess it was because the First Prince was not ready, or the war in Xishan was settled too quickly, He has no chance to serve the king."
"Anyway, it means that they have been paying attention to the movement of the capital. I don't believe that the eldest prince has no thoughts. Do you have any ideas on how to deal with him?"
"Can't you announce him to the capital? The vassal king cannot enter the capital without a call, but if the emperor orders him to enter the capital, can he still not come? We may not be able to do anything when we come, but we can always see his character. When the time comes It's not too late to start."
Li Xu knew what he said was right, but he really wanted to find someone to go deep into the Northwest to find out what was going on there. Although Guanshi Jin brought a lot of news, he was being watched all the time and didn't dare to move around. , too little is known.
The next day, Li Xu met Ye Changqing, who was also promoted now. Although the polo match could not last until the last moment, the outcome was clear. Kou Xiao's team first defeated Geng Sheng, and then fought with the Lu family. In Erlang's battle, the two were evenly divided in the first half. In the second half, Kou Xiao's team clearly had the upper hand. If nothing happened, he would definitely win.
According to the original arrangement, the emperor rewarded Kou Xiao with the armor of the first emperor, and promoted each team member to a higher level. With Ye Changqing's outstanding performance and his low grade, Situ Yong made an exception and promoted him once. captain.
"Are you addicted to being an official in Gyeonggi Camp?" Li Xu didn't understand why he still stayed in Gyeonggi Camp.
"My lord, don't underestimate this little official. It's very useful to walk in the capital, and you don't need to hide in Tibet. Recently, through Yuan Hongyang's relationship, I met a lot of people and got a piece of news."
"what news?"
Ye Changqing smiled mysteriously, gestured with his hands, and said: "I found out that Jia Ping's fiancée is actually a female general-like figure. She didn't like red makeup and armed forces since she was a child. She practiced martial arts and swords since she was a child. She is a master. But according to the rumors outside, this Miss Kong is a well-known lady who is well-educated, tell me, is this big news?"
Li Xu nodded, but still retorted: "But what does that have to do with you? Whether Jia Ping likes it or not, that's his own business."
"Jia Ping is a good brother of his subordinates. Of course we should tell him such important news, lest he be deceived by others. What if he just likes a well-educated lady?"
"How do you know what you like if you haven't gotten along with each other before? Why don't you create a few opportunities for them to meet each other, and then you'll know if you like it or not." Li Xu is not in favor of blind marriage. If it's not suitable, Even if the reputation is damaged, the marriage will be called off.
"That's right, the prince is smart, I'll do it right away, and I heard that Miss Kong admires the little princess very much, and once said that if she was born a few years later, she must marry the little princess."
Li Xu laughed loudly after hearing this, "This girl is interesting, you go and tell Jia Ping, you might be pleasantly surprised when you see her, if he doesn't like such a good girl, don't ruin her, this king decides to divorce him .”
Ye Changqing is a person who is not too big to watch the excitement, so he found out Miss Kong's living habits that day, and knew that she would go to the suburban Zhuangzi to practice swords on the [-]th day of every month in the name of Shangxiang, and the next day was the first day of the new year. , Immediately abducted Jia Ping to meet the beauties.
The two dressed up in disguise, pretending to be sick and weak scholars who went out to play. On the way, they encountered snitches and robbed them. This scene naturally caused Miss Kong to bump into him. The beauty came out to save the hero, not only beat off the snitch and took back his belongings, but also sent two weak scholars to their destination by the way.
Ye Changqing held back a smile and winked at Jia Ping. Seeing that he didn't speak and his face was expressionless, he had no choice but to come forward and say, "Thank you for saving me. I don't know your name and where she lives. I will definitely come to thank you someday."
"There's no need to thank you. If I, a boudoir girl, let people know that I saved two strange men by wielding knives and guns, how shameless I am?"
What she said was so straightforward, Ye Changqing immediately laughed, "Xiaosheng is not thinking carefully, does the girl have any unsolved wishes, as long as we can do it, we will definitely help each other."
Ms. Kong glanced at the two of them. Ye Changqing and Jia Ping's outfits are really bad today. Apart from their good figures, their faces are unrecognizable, and their personalities are also soft. They can't even deal with snitches. People should save their lives to sing the wind and praise the moon."
The words were quite rude, but Ye Changqing was not offended, poked Jia Ping, and said: "Although the two of us have no skills, we are also people who keep our promises. If the girl has problems, just say it, and we will definitely do it."
"No, I just ask you not to publicize what happened today."
"Why?"
Miss Kong stared blankly into the distance, and whispered: "If my future husband's family knows that I am so rude, wouldn't it embarrass my fiancé?"
"Hey, it turns out that the girl is already engaged. It's a pity. I don't know which son is so lucky to marry a character like a heroine?"
Jia Ping didn't open his mouth until this time, and said in a deep voice: "Young girl is brave enough to save people's lives, and she is chivalrous. How can such a heroine embarrass her fiancé?"
"Who knows, maybe he likes a lady who is a little bird and a person." Although Ms. Kong has never met her fiancé, she has heard a lot of news about him. People must be strong-willed people. As the old saying goes, husband and wife have complementary personalities. The stronger a man is, the more he likes a soft woman.
Jia Pinduo took a look at Ms. Kong, she couldn't see her facial features with her face covered, but her eyes were very bright, her eyebrows were heroic and slanted, and her eyes were bright and sharp. If you met such a woman on the road, you would definitely think it was someone from the quack.
Although this aspect didn't move Jia Ping's heart, it made him look forward to it a little more. He doesn't like Jiao Didi's weak daughter. If the other party is an independent and self-reliant woman, at least he won't hate it.
"Miss is overthinking. Relationships can only be cultivated after getting along with each other. It's not just to judge good or bad based on these."
"I hope so."
Ye Changqing questioned: "I don't know which family the young lady's husband's family is, why don't the two of us find out about your fiancé's personality for you, so as not to marry someone who is wrong."
Miss Kong didn't want to reveal too much to strangers, she just met by chance, she was not stupid enough to give her sincerity, so she just rode away without saying a word.
Ye Changqing looked at her going back, and smiled meaningfully, "Jia Ping, if you don't like her, why don't you let me, I like such a neat girl."
Jia Ping glared at him, "If you want a woman, go find it yourself. She and my family have even signed a letter of engagement. It's not that easy to break off the engagement."
"Then you have to remember to be nice to her, otherwise I will go to the lord to sue, saying that you have misconduct, abused your wife, and you are a scumbag." The scumbag was only learned by the lord, it is so straightforward and easy to use .
Jia Ping didn't bother to talk to him, so he just dumped him: "The wedding date has been changed to June [-]th, so remember to come and have a wedding wine, if the gift is too light, we won't entertain you!"
Ye Changqing smiled sinisterly, "Yo, so you really like this kind of thing, let me tell you earlier, my brother introduced it to you earlier, lest you..." Ye Changqing paused, and said a word to fool him. Then take him back to return to life.
