Xu Jing accepted it calmly and laughed softly: "Get up!"
"From tomorrow onwards, you will be serving as an errand in the military camp and no longer have to be with me all the time."
A military general must look like a military general and can no longer act like a soldier. Otherwise, it will be a humiliation to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion.
Xu Shan understood the truth, but felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. His eyes were red and his voice was hoarse: "I will watch the night for the prince again tonight."
Xu Jing stretched out his hand and pulled Xu Shan to stand up: "No, there are so many soldiers around me, and you are not missing. If you do your job well, kill more bandits and make more military exploits during the war, and your promotion will be more smooth in the future."
Xu Shan hummed and stood beside Xu Jing, refusing to leave.
Xu Jing glared at him and kicked him: "What are you still doing? Go back to bed and get up early tomorrow to train. You have to be the first one there!"
Xu Shan, who was kicked, suddenly felt much better, and he bowed his hands and exited the military tent.
Outside the military tent, Xu Shiyi congratulated his good brother with a wink and a strange look that made Xu Shan couldn't help but laugh.
Zhao Xiyan smiled and sighed: "I finally got over it. I'm going to take a nice hot bath tomorrow morning."
Zhao Xiyan felt a little pain, and couldn't help but pinch her daughter's tender face: "Eat slowly, brother is not here, so I won't compete with you."
"Your Majesty, there is a letter from Beihai County."
After practicing for two hours, it was almost noon before the sweaty soldiers dispersed.
Xu Jing quickly opened the two letters. After reading them, he didn't know whether to laugh or scold him. In the end, he couldn't hold it back and scolded Zheng Er: "This bastard always comes up with some bad ideas."
Zhao Xiyan's heart almost melted. She smiled softly and stretched out her fingers to play with Xiao Hua'er's fingers. Her other hand was held in Xiao Guo'er's palm.
It was common for Zheng Er to write to him. Why did Li Xiao suddenly write to him too?
It was Xu Shan's pleasure to be kicked by the Crown Prince. Xu Shan wanted to kick him, but Xu Shan could dodge faster than the wind.
In front of his own eldest son, there is nothing he is embarrassed to admit. Xu Shan was a little shy and replied in a low voice: "Yes, I couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning last night. It always felt like a sweet dream."
At five o'clock the next day, Xu Jing went to the school martial arts field.
Xu Jing perked up and took the letter from Xu Shiyi's hand. He glanced around and saw an unexpected name.
Xu Jing looked at Xu Shiyi's cheerful and joyful character, smiled and teased: "You are so happy that Xu San is no longer a soldier!"
Xu Shan had already arrived one step ahead. His tall figure was particularly eye-catching.
She didn't have much milk, only enough to feed one child at a time. So she let the two children take turns to nurse. This time it was the daughter's turn. The little flower closed her eyes and sucked hard.
After chatting for a while, Xu Jing asked people to beat the military drums. After the military drums were played, the soldiers quickly entered the school martial arts field and began to drill.
The hosta on the side smiled and said: "Tomorrow is the full moon banquet of the little prince and princess. The crown prince's confinement period is also finished."
Xu Jing drilled with the soldiers. After the drill, he was in high spirits. He smiled and called Gao Wangxu Shan and others to go to the military tent to have lunch together.
…
The moon is so round and bright tonight!
Xu Shiyi was particularly happy tonight. He went to the kitchen himself and came back with a large bucket of hot water.
However, Zheng Er is a good friend and the future fourth brother-in-law. Now that he has opened his mouth, he must give him some face.
…
"Your Majesty has been busy all day, so I will ask someone to bring you hot water and some midnight snacks."
Xu Shiyi and Xu Shan stopped immediately, rolled their eyes at each other, one went back to the military tent to rest, and the other diligently entered the military tent to serve.
Xu Jing in the military tent heard something wrong and laughed and cursed: "Stop making such a fuss!"
Li Xiao is in charge of the Jiaodong Army. He is a leader among the younger generation of generals and is worthy of winning an alliance.
"Of course." Yuhan rushed over and said with a smile: "The little prince and princess are all born like princesses. When they grow up, they will be handsome princes and stunning beauties."
Xu Jing nodded casually.
This feeling can only be experienced after becoming a mother!
After feeding Little Hua'er, Little Guo'er was also brought over. The brother and sister lay side by side on the bed, grinning together.
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled: "I just hope that they will grow up safely and healthily. How they look is secondary."
On days when there was no war, half the day was spent practicing in the military camp, and the other half was much more leisurely. Xu Jing rarely had free time, so he lay down to take a nap. As soon as he closed his eyes, Xu Shiyi came excitedly with two letters.
Little Hua'er naturally didn't understand and continued to suck greedily with her mouth open.
Zhao Xiyan was in a particularly bright mood at the thought of being able to take a bath.
A few days later, Xu Jing's letter was delivered to the Beihai Palace in the capital.
Xu Shiyi chuckled: "Of course. Xu San is more skilled than me and does things more securely than me. He captured Zhou Sui alive and rescued Marquis Zhongyong. He is better than me in everything. With him around, I can only fight as a private soldier."
Ranked second in the ranking. It’s great that he’s gone, no one can compete with me in the future.”
Xu Shiyi also laughed, moved closer to Xu Shan, and laughed softly: "Don't even think about arguing with me from now on. I am the most loyal and useful commander of the soldiers around the prince."
At this time, Zhao Xiyan was holding the baby and feeding her milk.
Just lie on the bed all day, that's it. The most uncomfortable thing is not being able to take a shower. The weather is hot, and I don't dare to use an ice basin. I can only simply wipe it with warm water every day and change into clean clothes every day.
Xu Jing laughed dumbly and kicked him over: "Okay, go out first and let my ears clear for a while."
Most of the red skin on the children's faces has faded away, their eyebrows are longer and they look extremely handsome.
Xu Shan's bickering skills were far from Xu Shiyi's match. With a move of his elbow, Xu Shiyi grunted and kicked him quickly.
Even so, you can still smell the sweat wafting from your long hair.
Xu Jing glanced at him with a smile: "You must have been awake all night, right?"
Xu Jing pondered for a moment and wrote a letter. One letter was to Zhao Xiyan, the other two were to his biological father and father-in-law. One was to Zheng Er, and the last one was to Li Xiao.
Xu Erwu stayed at the palace all year round. Xu San now officially has an official position. From now on, the prince's most trusted confidant must be Xu Shiyi.
Xu Jing grinned: "I didn't sleep well last night either. As soon as I closed my eyes, I dreamed of my son and daughter. It's a pity that I, the biological father, have not seen the child yet."
Zhao Xiyan said something silly that only a mother would say: "Why do I think they are so cute? There must be no children cuter than them in the world."
Xu Shiyi happily walked out of the military tent with his footprints, then raised his head and laughed.
Of course, she and Xu Jing couldn't give birth to ugly children.
While they were chatting, the little maid Hu Bo came in and presented a letter to Zhao Xiyan: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince sent someone to deliver a letter."
Zhao Xiyan accepted the letter with a smile, opened it, and suddenly let out a light sigh.
