Long Bing'er looked at Xu Qing, who was eating when he needed to and sleeping when he needed to, and couldn't help but wonder, was it the prince who was captured?
Why do you feel like no one in Chu is impatient?
Since Xu Qing didn't worry about it, she, Long Bing'er, naturally didn't bother to worry about it either. She followed Xu Qing's example and ate when she needed to and slept when she needed to.
Fengzhou is really a good place, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a lot of delicious food. She ate a lot with Xu Qing this day.
My stomach was a little full after eating.
This trip was really not in vain.

Xuan'er ran into Su Qian's bedroom with a letter in her hand and said, "Miss, my uncle has another letter."
From the time of departure, Su Qian asked Xu Qing to send a letter home every five days to report that he was safe.
At this time, there were shops of the Guoshangyuan in various prefectures and cities in Chu State. It could not be easier for Xu Qing to order the directors of the Guoshangyuan to send a letter back.
Although due to road traffic problems, Su Qian could only get the news from Xu Qing five or six days ago. The farther Xu Qing traveled, the longer it took to deliver the letter, but having a piece of family letter still made Su Qian feel at ease.
At this time, Su Qian felt a little regretful, regretting that she was pregnant at this time, otherwise she could have gone with her husband.
To put down a rebellion, we need to fight. What if we get injured and get sick on the battlefield? What should we do?
Su Qian opened the letter and read it word by word.
Last time, Su Qian heard her husband recite a poem: The war rages on for three months, and a letter from home is worth ten thousand gold.
At that time, she had no feelings about these two lines of poetry.
Only at this moment can I really feel the artistic conception of these two poems.
Xuan'er stood next to Su Qian. After Su Qian finished reading the letter, she couldn't wait to ask: "Miss, how is my uncle?"
Su Qian put down the letter and said: "My husband is fine, everything is fine, and Bing'er is fine too. Now I am following my husband to Fengzhou to exterminate the rebels. If I count the time, my husband and Bing'er's sister should have arrived in Fengzhou as well."
.”
Xuan'er was a little surprised: "Sister Bing'er is here too?"
Su Qian nodded and said: "Bing'er has extraordinary martial arts skills and has experience in the military. With her by my husband's side, I can rest assured."
Xuan'er consoled her: "My uncle is so smart, he will be fine. Don't worry, Miss."
Su Qian nodded, put the letter in a small delicate box, stood up and said, "Xuan'er, come with me to the back garden for a walk."
next day
Fengzhou City
Xu Qing was playing backgammon with Long Bing'er in the room. Whoever won would get a white rabbit.
Of course, Xu Qing didn’t have a white rabbit, so Long Bing’er had to create a white rabbit.
This girl Long Bing'er is very easy to deceive. After playing three games, Long Bing'er didn't win any of them.
In order to prevent the girl Long Bing'er from giving up playing because she lost too much, Xu Qing still gave up one game.
The three white rabbits I had just won from Long Bing'er were immediately lost to one.
Just when Long Bing'er wanted to continue playing with great interest, Xiao Ye walked in.
When Xiao Ye saw the scene indoors, he couldn't help coughing: "Brother Xu, are you busy... are you busy?"
Xu Qing shook his head: "I just finished my work."
When Long Binger saw Xiao Ye coming in, she got up and walked out.
Xiao Ye walked up to Xu Qing and said: "The returning scouts have already investigated the trap arrangements outside Beishan. However, because bandits from the surrounding cottages are constantly coming to Beishan for reinforcements, and because Beishan is high in the mountains and densely forested, it is easy for bandits to hide.
, the scouts did not rush in for fear of alerting the snake, but they did find a lot of traps, some of which were newly prepared. If we went further in, there would be many more. Fortunately, Brother Xu asked us to investigate in advance, otherwise we would probably
I suffered a big loss."
Funiu Mountain has four peaks: southeast, northwest and northwest, and there are several other continuous peaks around Funiu Mountain. Since Funiu Mountain is the most powerful, the surrounding villages respect Funiu Mountain as the big brother.
Xu Qing heard Xiao Ye's words, nodded and asked: "How is the situation in Dongshan?"
Xiao Ye said: "Because most of the bandits' attention is on the North Mountain, the bandits' guards on the other mountains are lax, so they can explore with peace of mind. The traps on the East Mountain have been detected and marked.
We pose no threat."
Xu Qing nodded and said: "Then we will mobilize the imperial army to pretend to attack Dongshan. After the bandits on Beishan get the news and become confused, we will lead the shadow guards up from Beishan to see if we can rescue King Qi. I hope Qi
The king must still be on Beishan Mountain."
Xiao Ye gritted his teeth and said, "After I rescue him, I have to break his legs first and let him live in peace for a while."
Originally, as long as they quietly investigated and eliminated the traps of those special shady people on the mountain, the army could march straight in.
But with the appearance of King Qi, the action that was mainly about suppressing the bandits instantly turned into an action mainly about saving King Qi.
If King Qi was not the eldest son of the emperor's uncle, Xiao Ye was afraid that King Qi would make the emperor's uncle sad, so Xiao Ye really wanted to let this thing fend for itself.
I really don’t know how such a wise man like the emperor’s uncle gave birth to such a thing.
Funiu Mountain, above Dongshan Mountain
Inside the Xiaojuyi Hall
The heads of many surrounding mountains gathered here, and they all came to see the "good big brother" of the bald man.
They initially took refuge in the bald man solely because they were weak, and because of the persuasion of Mr. Xu, the Funiu Mountain military advisor, they took refuge in Funiu Mountain.
But they have always wanted to be down-to-earth and fulfill their duties as bandits.
They have never thought of rebelling!
And now, the anti-rebellion troops sent by the imperial court have all arrived at Fengzhou City!
What exactly has their "good big brother" done?
One of the fat men seemed to be able to squeeze out oil from his face. He couldn't bear it any longer. He sat down and looked at the bald man under the small Juyi Hall plaque. He said, "Brother, we brothers have come to you just because they want to."
With one more person, you will have more strength. From now on, we will drink a lot of wine and eat meat with a big mouth, but our brothers have never thought of rebelling against the imperial court. Aren't you driving our brothers to death?"
The bald head sighed and said: "I understand what you guys mean, and I have never thought of rebelling. Originally, according to Mr. Xu's plan, the imperial court should not be able to send troops at this time. Fengzhou Prefecture
After the border siege fails to stop, they will send people up the mountain to recruit us and others."
The fat man said: "The imperial army's anti-rebellion troops are almost at our door. The man surnamed Xu also said that the imperial court cannot send troops at all. But with the current situation, wouldn't it mean that we are on the road to death?"
"
"Our few people on the mountain can cope with the defenders of Fengzhou City, but how can we cope with the imperial army?"
The bald head said: "Brothers, don't worry, we already have the capital to negotiate with the court. We have captured a prince..."
Before the boss finished speaking, things around him seemed to be exploding.
The first sentence tells you brothers not to worry, but the second sentence is that we have captured a prince...
This... this damn thing would be a ghost if he could still stop worrying?!
