"Princess!" Xiao Feng and Feng Zheng couldn't help but stand up and stared at His Highness the Princess in front of him. Although there are many generals in the imperial city now, aren't they the ones who are really suitable to lead troops to fight against the army of the Clan? Is His Highness the Princess going to fight in person? Is it possible that his Highness the Princess was going to glance at Princess Shenyou again. Fortunately, Xiao Feng Zheng was a little resentful. Although he was in the position of commander commander of the front office of the palace, he could be called the leader of the general. But in retrospect, the last time he led the army to battle was almost twenty years ago. Moreover, at that time, his position was not high, and he was led by others instead of leading the army to battle himself. As a general, I have to say that this is a pity. Feng Zheng was trapped in this small imperial city of Pingjing and became the essential imperial guard of Emperor Yongjia.

Chu Ling smiled and looked at them without saying anything. Xiao Shi couldn't help but say, "The princess is... joking, right?"

Chu Ling raised her eyebrows, "When did I like to joke?"

“…”Didn’t you always like to joke?

Feng Zheng said: "If the princess has a more suitable candidate, the last one will be willing to defend the city!" Chu Ling curled her lips and smiled, "Well... I really have it."

"who?"

Chu Ling looked up at the door, and everyone looked up, and saw a tall and slender figure walking in from outside. Everyone was stunned. Xiao Shi stood up first, "Son-in-law?!" The others were also shocked. Jun Wuhuan was wearing a black dress and a delicate silver-white mask on his face. He walked in but was already imposing. He didn't look like the legendary frail and sick, but he looked more like the famous lord of Cangyun City!

Aren’t Changli Gongzi and Cangyun City Lord the same person?!

Shangguan Chengyi and Lord Zhu were shocked and immediately came to his senses before he remembered this secret that was not considered a secret.

"Young Master!"

"City Lord!"

Unlike Shangguan Chengyi and other ministers in the court, those close to Chu Ling are generally more accustomed to calling Jun Wuhuan or the city lord. Jun Wuhuan raised his hand and took off the mask on his face, revealing a pale but amazing handsome face. He walked to Chu Ling and nodded slightly and said, "No need to be polite, just sit down."

"Thank you!"

Everyone sat down again. Shangguan Chengyi and Lord Zhu looked at each other, but Shangguan Chengyi said first: "At this time... how could the prince consort be in Pingjing?"

Chu Ling smiled and said, "He came back last night. If he hadn't happened to come back, I'm afraid there would be a bloody disaster in the Princess's Mansion last night." Shangguan Chengyi and others naturally knew that the Princess's Mansion was invaded by an assassin last night. However, Jun Wuhuan, who had not returned for a long time, appeared in peace, and really had to make people think too much. Jun Wuhuan glanced at him and said lightly: "Don't worry, Lord Shangguan, I'm just coming back to see A Ling. I'll leave soon."

Shangguan Chengyi was suddenly embarrassed, and it felt like they were judging a gentleman with the heart of a villain. However, Shangguan Chengyi was not guilty. They were willing to follow the princess Shenyou to fight for the country of Tianqi, but the premise was still loyal to the royal family. Even if they judge a gentleman with the heart of a villain, some things had to be asked clearly. Chu Ling frowned slightly, and was about to speak, but Jun Wuhuan held his hand. Jun Wuhuan shook his head slightly at her, and Chu Ling frowned with some displeasure.

Jun Wuhuan said in a deep voice: "Cangyun City is busy with everything, and I can't stay in Pingjing Chang, so let's talk about the serious matter first."

Chu Ling sighed lightly and nodded.

With Jun Wuhuan coming forward, Feng Zheng and Xiao Xi naturally had no choice but to fight again. Fortunately, Chu Ling didn't really want the two tiger generals to shrink into the city to defend the city. Since she was ambitious to wipe out the Northern Jin army, it was naturally impossible to complete it by defending the city and Jun Wuhuan alone. Therefore, Chu Ling's choice was to defend the city. Jun Wuhuan, Feng Zheng and Xiao Xi each led a group of troops and attacked at the same time. This proposal was unanimously agreed by everyone, and the young generals were ready to charge.

After coming out of the study, Jun Wuhuan and Chu Ling walked hand in hand in the garden of the princess's mansion. Jun Wuhuan looked at Chu Ling who was walking beside him and smiled: "A Ling is not happy?"

Chu Ling looked up at him, "Why didn't you let me speak just now?"

Jun Wuhuan said: "No need."

Chu Ling said, "What does it mean to be unnecessary? I don't believe it, you can't guess what Shangguan Chengyi is thinking." Jun Wuhuan chuckled and said, "Aling, you know, even if you and I are powerful, you can't care what others think. But no matter how they think, they can't affect us, that's enough. After a few days, their guesses will naturally disappear. Now it's the time to use people, why bother them to feel thorny?"

Chu Ling lowered his eyes and said for a long time: "I know you are for me, but there is no need. If I was maliciously speculated and suspected in Cangyun City, would you bear this tone?"

"This is different." Jun Wuhuan said.

Chu Ling said: "There is nothing different. You don't want people to blame me, and I don't want someone to suspect you. You are right. We really can't care what others think, but I can't do nothing, watching others suspect you. Sometimes... if you are too suspicious, someone will take it seriously."

Jun Wuhuan stood still, looked down at her and laughed softly, "Does A Ling feel sorry for me?"

Chu Ling raised her eyes and glanced at him lightly, "I'm thinking too much."

Jun Wuhuan raised his eyebrows, "Thinking too much? A Ling's words are so sad."

Chu Ling was speechless, grabbed his sleeve and walked forward, "Don't talk nonsense, go. Changsheng is still waiting for you to teach him."

Jun Wuhuan held her hand back and walked forward and asked, "A Ling, where do you want to go when the world is peaceful in the future?" Chu Ling thought for a while and said, "Let's go around, look at the famous mountains, rivers, strange people and strange things in the world, and then find a good place to settle down and rest and take care of the elderly." Jun Wuhuan laughed and said, "Okay, when the world is peaceful in the future, we will leave all the annoying guys, and we will only leave the two of us." Chu Ling said, "Before this, Mr. Changli... Would you please cure your own body first?" The sick girl still wants to wander around the world? She thought too much.

The two of them were chatting and laughing, and they walked further and further away, and two figures turned out on the path behind them.

Lord Zhu and Shangguan Chengyi looked at the direction where the two figures disappeared. Lord Zhu stroked his short beard and smiled: "It seems that Brother Shangguan's concern is nothing more than nothing."

Shangguan Chengyi sighed and said, "It's not that we judge a gentleman by the heart of a villain. It's really the worldly love. Even if I don't speak, will others not speak?"

Master Zhu said: "Brother Shangguan knows what the princess's statement means?"

Can you know, the princess must have known that they were here and said something that deliberately. The only thing is that the throne has always been too attractive. As long as the princess is blessed and the country is in power for one day, I am afraid that these rumors will not stop for a day.

"What a pity..." Mr. Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly and sighed softly. Shangguan Chengyi was a little puzzled, "What a pity?"

Lord Zhu shook his head, but smiled without saying a word.

Jiaozhou is not far from Pingjing, only two or three days away. Even if the march is a little slower, it will only be three or four days at most. Therefore, at noon the next day, the army of the Clan was less than fifty miles away from Pingjing. The powerful and noble people in the Pingjing Imperial City were all panicked. Whether they had experienced the entry of the Clans in the past or were born and raised in the south, they were heard of it. They were all anxious and uneasy as if the cavalry of the Clan could placate the Clan Imperial City in the next moment.

Jun Wuhuan, Xiao Feng Zheng and Feng Zheng had already left quietly with their troops. Chu Ling also moved from the Shenyou Princess's Mansion to the palace.

Looking at Princess Shenyou who was still sitting upright in the side hall of the Imperial Study Room reading memorials, the officials sitting in the hall, regardless of their civil and military affairs, and no matter what their opinions were on the princess of the regent, they still felt a little admiration in their hearts. No matter what, just because of this calmness and calmness, it was enough for most men to be far behind.

Changsheng sat at the small desk in the corner not far away and wrote. The atmosphere in the hall was a bit strange, which made him unable to help but look up at Chu Ling from time to time. Chu Ling noticed that his eyes would always raise his head and smiled at him comfortably. When Changsheng saw his sister's smile, he immediately felt much more at ease in his heart, and he lowered his head again to continue writing.

Finally, when Chu Ling finished reading the pile of folds on the table, he asked while reaching for another pile: "Are you all so bored? There is no need to deal with the business in the yamen?"

Everyone smiled helplessly and looked at each other for a few seconds. Finally, Duke Xiangguo was pushed out by the eyes of everyone. Duke Xiangguo coughed lightly and said, "You are all worried about the war outside the city, so you... dare not slacken in official duties. Please rest assured." Besides, this day is just a little bit too late. If there is really an urgent matter, someone will naturally present it. Not to mention others, even Duke Xiangguo himself is a little unintentional about official duties.

Chu Ling said: "You can't help with the war outside the city, why do you have to think too much? When you are in your position, you should go back to the yamen to do the job."

An official coughed lightly and said, "Princess Qi, today's yamen?...hehe, there is no tricky job."

Anyway, I just have to rely on it here.

At this time, those who can stand in the imperial study room and get a seat are naturally not ordinary people. Chu Ling even doubted whether they were worried that Pingjing would not be able to bear it and threw it into the palace. After all, once the city is broken, the palace will definitely be the last place to be lost.

Chu Ling flipped through the note in his hand, and there was no important matter. After thinking about it, he threw the note in his hand back to the table and said, "It seems that everyone is really unwilling to work today, so... just take it as a rest in advance." He stood up from behind the desk, Chu Ling said, "Since everyone is fine, let's go out with me." Everyone was stunned, a little confused, "Princess, where are you going?"

"It's also idle, go to the city tower."

"..." Why go to the city tower?

But Chu Ling said, "I passed on the orders from this palace. All officials in Beijing, from the fourth rank or above, except those necessary personnel in various places, will go up to the city tower to cheer for my Apocalypse Imperial Guard! Well... If the family members of the family are interested, they can also go together."

"Princess, this..." Someone wanted to say something, and Chu Ling turned around and smiled at the man, "This is... an order!"

“…”

Watching Princess Shenyou wave to her future heir, she walked out with the child. Everyone who was left in the imperial study looked at each other for a while without a word.

Chu Ling sat in the small pavilion on the city tower, and could see the scenery several miles outside the city from a high place. At this time, many people gathered on the city tower, in addition to the soldiers guarding the city, there were also officials in the court dressed in government offices. However, most of these people were bitter and worried. The city wall where they stood was far away as if they could be shot to death by the people of the tribe if they approached a little.

Chu Ling leaned against the window a little lazily and yawned a little. Since she returned to Pingjing, she has basically not had a good rest. She is so bored that she wants to doze off now.

"Princess." Shao Guiyuan and Xia Yueting appeared at the door and said respectfully. Behind them, there were Northern Jin Prime Minister Ahulu, who was tied up like a rice dumpling.

Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why are you two?"

Shao Guiyuan said helplessly: "Hasn't everyone else been let go by the princess?"

Chu Ling knocked on his forehead, yes. Shangguan Yunru, Huang Jingxuan and others followed him out of the city, and even Li Dan and Yun Xu ran away. Feng Sibei and Huan Yu protected Emperor Yongjia in the palace. After all, the only one who was still idle at the moment was Shao Guiyuan. Chu Ling waved to Xia Yueting with a smile and said, "Come in, are you still used to following Mr. Shao?" Xia Yueting stepped forward shyly, "Everything is fine... I have learned a lot with Mr. Shao. Thank you... cousin."

"Be good." Chu Ling said with a smile. Xia Yueting's child is good at everything but not very lively.

After teasing the beautiful boy, Chu Ling looked at Ahulu who was staring at him and smiled and said, "How can you be so rude to the Prime Minister of Northern Jin, and why don't you loosen your ties?"

Shao Guiyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Princess is sure?" Although Ahulu is the prime minister of Northern Jin, he is not a person without any power.

Chu Ling smiled and said, "What's the matter? Let's loosen up."

Shao Guiyuan nodded and signaled the person behind him to untie the rope tied to Ahulu.

Ahulu got freedom, and first moved his hands and feet before looking at Chu Ling and said, "What does princess mean?"

Chu Ling leaned against the table and smiled, "I am free and I want to invite Lord Ahulu to play chess. I wonder what the Lord thinks?"

Ahulu glanced outside. There were people coming and going on the city tower, as if there was a lively street market. There was no sense of solemnity in the city tower. He said with a slight mockery: "The princess is joking, she is just a rough man, and she doesn't know how to play chess?" Chu Ling smiled and said: "Mr. Ahulu's words have fooled me. I heard that I have been obsessed with Central Plains culture since I was a child. I can be called the first master of the chess of the Clan." Of course, this first may be someone politely praised or the few people who learned this thing from the Clan. But at least it shows that Ahulu is indeed good at playing chess.

Ahulu's expression changed slightly and he said lightly: "The princess is indeed very informative."

Chu Ling smiled and said, "Please, Lord Ahulu?"

Ahulu asked: "There should be a win or lose when playing chess. What if you lose, what if you win?"

Chu Ling said: "If you win, you can go back to Northern Jin and join the soldiers of the Clan outside the city. If you lose, you can go back. The palace will send the corpse of the Clan outside the city. Of course, the corpse of the Clan outside the city will not work. The corpse of tens of thousands of people is really too mobilized."

Ahulu's face changed slightly, and he stared at Chu Ling for a while before saying, "It seems that the princess is very confident."

Chu Ling asked, "Don't you? Sir, are you gamble?"

Ahulu said: "Do I have any choice? I've bet!"

Chu Ling Yanran smiled, "Sir, please!"

The two of them sat down, and each had their own chess pieces. Ahulu's black piece went first, and Chu Ling happily followed.

"The princess chooses to play chess with me here. If what the princess wants to see doesn't happen from beginning to end, wouldn't it be boring?" Ahulu said lightly while thinking about how to make a move.

Chu Ling smiled and said, "If this is the case, I will naturally lose." Chu Ling is really not good at playing chess. If he plays chess with those who are known as holy hands, it would be a pure humiliation. However, Ahulu is obviously not that far, and both of them are not all on the chessboard, so it would not be difficult to deal with it.

Ahulu's subordinates paused slightly, and after a long time, he slowly left a son and said, "I hope the princess can always have this confidence."

Chu Ling said: "Sir, if I don't want the people of the Clan to come, will those people who sent the message really escape from the heavenly prison? Or... Lord Ahulu really hopes those people come now?"

Ahulu remained silent and said for a long time: "You did it on purpose."

Chu Ling said: "It's just a matter of time, just take advantage of the situation. The lord said this as if my scheming was so deep."

"..." Can you still be considered simple-minded?

After a long time, I heard Ahulu sigh and said, "It's a pity... I shouldn't have given the princess a chance to escape from Shangjing." A temporary mistake caused the current situation. This is the real danger of raising a tiger. Unfortunately... no one would have thought that there would be such a day.
