Liujing Mansion is where Li Xiao must lead his troops back, but it is unknown whether the Guo family's troops are still in Liujing Mansion, so the army led by Li Xiao has been in the field.
When leaving Peifeng, they first went south, then east and north, staying as far away from the Lengji River bank as possible at night, and camping under the high mountains in the leeward direction.
Another group of scouts set out to explore the roads in various directions. The night fog rose from the huge sky and the earth, and the lights of the villages at the foot of the mountains in the distance dimmed and appeared in the field of vision.
Near midnight, snowflakes suddenly fell from the sky. Not long after the military officer fell asleep, he was called to protect himself from the cold.
Qian Yuandeng was lying on the camp bed with his eyes open. There was movement and sound outside, not loud, but very noisy.
He turned over and his eyes were seriously distracted.
At this moment, Qian Yuandeng pricked up his ears when he heard the sound of Li Xiao coming out.
The voices of Li Xiao and Konwei were very low and could not be heard clearly, but not long after, Mu Tingyu's voice came.
Qian Yuandeng's fist suddenly became hard.
Qian Yuandeng always believed that he was closest to Mu Tingyu and had the best relationship. In the eyes of the entire Li Qian court, the two of them were as close as wearing a pair of pants.
But since he pushed Mu Tingyu last time, the boy seemed to have fallen towards Li Xiao.
It can't be called flattery, and Li Xiao still looks down upon him, but compared to before, the relationship between the two has eased.
Now, Mu Tingyu came out of the tent immediately. Haha, you kid continued to put his ear to the tent, squatting and eavesdropping.
As for that, as for that, it was because I was flustered and confused, and I pushed him unintentionally, and then I didn't apologize.
Qian Yuandeng turned over again on the bed.
There was another person sleeping on the narrow camp bed. Because he turned over repeatedly, the beauty woke up long ago.
Qian Yuandeng put his arm around her and pinched her soft body. The beauty was in pain, but his mouth was full of coquettishness: "I hate it~"
A soft and feeble voice floated out from the tent, and Mu Tingyu was the first to look towards Qian Yuandeng's tent.
Li Xiao, Ye Jun and others looked disgusted.
"Ha~" Mu Tingyu sneered, with a look of hatred that iron cannot become steel.
Looking back at Li Xiao, Mu Tingyu cupped his fists and said dryly: "Little Prince, you should rest early!"
After saying that, he turned around and returned to camp.
Early the next morning, the army marched out.
Mu Tingyu was walking outside the carriage alone as before.
The only things left in the carriage were money, lanterns and two beauties.
Qian Yuandeng was always in a bad mood, so the two beauties tried their best to make him happy.
Mu Tingyu listened to the beauty's rhetoric outside, shook his head with a sneer, and sped forward.
He just walked up to Lin Zongqi.
Because Mu Tingyu had restrained himself these days, Lin Zongqi treated him somewhat favorably and said, "Young Master Mu, why don't you get into the carriage?"
"What are you going in for?" Mu Tingyu said calmly, "A straw-bag beauty who has never read a book and has no ink. She thinks she has practiced the art of charm and can win over a man. In the end, she just said a few words back and forth. She doesn't know what the man really is. Wherever you are happy, you’ll get bored if you play too much.”
Lin Zongqi raised his eyebrows: "It seems that Mu Xiaoshizi has quite some insights."
"Anyone who likes straw beauties and can be served by them for so long is also a straw bag." Mu Tingyu said.
"Hahaha..." Lin Zongqi laughed.
Mu Tingyu stopped talking.
Passing by an isolated village by the river, outside the sparsely populated village, Cai He and the troops he sent in advance met early.
The letter mentioned that Mr. Zhi's business deal was about to be completed, the battle in the deep alleys of Shoushi City, and Lu Mingfeng's arrival at Shoushi.
He emphatically mentioned in his heart that Lu Mingfeng did not come alone. In addition to the Tianrong Guards, there was another person beside him, the former Fengche Captain and the current Yu Linlang General Bao Suwei.
The words "Bao Su" made Li Xiao grit his teeth.
Compared with Li Xun, a biological brother, Li Xiao and Bao Suwei look almost exactly the same.
This is because their mothers are twins. They were originally from a noble family with meritorious service. Their ancestors suffered hardships due to changes in government, and their mothers became slaves when they were young.
Li Xiao's biological mother, Mrs. Chen, was originally one of the dowry girls of Princess Jian'an. She had a strong temperament and was unwilling to be a maid. She tried her best to plan and eventually became the concubine of King Li Nanjun of Jian'an.
Bao Suwei's biological mother met a member of the Yanyun Guards and fell in love with him at first sight. She was willing to use her family wealth to redeem her life, and finally she was freed from slavery.
Bao Suwei is one year older than Li Xiao. On the surface, Li Xiao is far more noble than Bao Suwei, but the environment in which he grew up makes Li Xiao inferior to Bao Suwei.
Bao Suwei joined the army at a young age because of his father. When he was eight years old, he was met by King Jian'an by chance and found out about his life experience, so he took him to the palace to fight with Li Xiao.
Li Xiaoyuan was no match and was pushed to the ground by Bao Suwei and beaten.
Since then, King Jian'an would call Bao Suwei to the palace every month.
From the age of seven to eleven, Li Xiao was beaten by Bao Suwei every year.
The two of them were cousins by blood, but Li Xiao resented his mother's low status and would never call Bao Su his only cousin.
It wasn't until he was twelve years old that Li Xiao finally fought to a draw with Bao Suwei. The winner was hard to decide, so King Jian'an took Li Xiao out of the palace and went to Li Zhi to show off his talents among the royal family members.
Li Xiao has no favorable impression of Bao Suwei and only has a deep dislike for him.
Tianrongwei had discovered the relationship between Li Xiao and Bao Suwei early on. This time Lu Mingfeng brought Bao Suwei with him. Although his intention was unclear, he definitely had bad intentions.
However, according to the secret reports coming back from Hejing in these years, Bao Suwei has been tracking the whereabouts of Ah Li. Now Ah Li appears in Peifeng, so it may be a coincidence.
The army temporarily rested outside the village, and Mr. Liu Meng and others were in Li Xiao's tent.
Qian Yuandeng was always on the carriage, leaning against the beauty, and laughing from time to time.
The carriage was far away, and the soldiers and horses furthest away from the carriage were only a hundred steps away, but the many movements on the carriage still attracted people to look at it frequently.
Mu Tingyu and his entourage were sitting not far away. Seeing the soldiers who had been looking at them, Mu Tingyu's face showed great displeasure.
There was another burst of charming laughter in the carriage, and a beauty called out "Don't take off your belt". Mu Tingyu suddenly couldn't sit down, and with a clang, he drew out the sword of the guard beside him and strode towards the carriage.
go.
All the soldiers around looked at his back.
One of them thought for a while, turned around and ran towards Li Xiao's temporary tent.
"Hmm~ No," the beauty in the car said with a sweet smile, holding Qian Yuandeng's hand, "unless the master agrees to something for me."
Qian Yuandeng held his head with one hand and leaned against the cushions. He was doing it casually, not really intending to do anything random. He was just trying to kill boredom and annoyance. Because of the beauty's words, he said lightly: "What are you promising?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the coachman, entourage, and guards outside could be heard saying, "Young Master Mu."
Qian Yuandeng looked out, and the car curtain was suddenly lifted, and Mu Tingyu's furious face appeared outside: "Qian Yuandeng!"
Qian Yuandeng sat up, frowned and said, "What are you doing?"
Mu Tingyu threw the big knife in his hand on the wooden board in the car: "Kill these two bitches!"
