Chapter 581 He doesn't want a fake consummation, he wants a real one
Chu Xingchen had just left Liangyi Hall and unexpectedly met Xiao Wang at the door.
Xiao Wang already knew Lingzhou's request, so he couldn't help but come to meet him by chance, and paid attention to the child in his belly as usual.
Tell her to be careful, both in words and in words.
He also said that he had something to discuss, so Chu Xingchen could only go back with him first.
The issue of military strength is the most serious issue at the moment.
I originally thought that the balance between the three kingdoms could be maintained for a few more years, and the population did not increase much, so we did not expand the army aggressively, only 20,000. Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened.
But in fact, even if we expand our troops aggressively, we cannot expand the attack of the three kingdoms of Wu, Qi, and Beidi.
In addition to the state of Qi, there is also the state of Wu.
Wu Guo is a new opponent, and there is no doubt that Zhou Buyan will join him as Zhou Muching.
Zhou Muxing's identity was originally very low-key, but now it's time for him to appear.
Only a person like him with a legendary heroic story is suitable.
Wu State sent 50,000 troops, but the difficulty was no less than Qi State's 150,000 troops.
Another 10,000 horses and horses transferred from northern Xinjiang were given to Zhou Muching, and 10,000 more could be transferred from western Xinjiang.
But it can only be 10,000. In Western Xinjiang, it is necessary to prevent the Xirong from taking advantage of the chaos, so 40,000 soldiers and horses must be left to guard it.
Zhou Muching brought over 20,000 horses, plus the 30,000 horses guarding the border between Wu and Dachu, which was exactly 50,000 horses.
It sounds like the number of people is the same, but in fact that's not the case.
"The number of soldiers and horses that attacked Wu State back then was usually twice that of Wu State. Sixty thousand against thirty thousand, one hundred thousand against fifty thousand, they still lost a lot."
Chu Xingchen's voice was heavy. One-on-one, although Zhou Buyan was prepared to save his life, it was still a big risk.
This time, life or death is still uncertain.
"So, Zhou Buyan, take all the shadows with you." Chu Xingchen had asked Zhou Buyan to recall most of the shadows before, just because he wanted him to take them with him.
Shadow is good at killing, and is also good at poisoning, and can fight poison with poison.
"As long as they are here, they will always protect you."
But Zhou Buyan refused, "The shadow protects your majesty. I recalled the shadow just to protect your majesty."
Tianliu was away, so Zhou Buyan had to leave the pregnant Chu Xingchen behind to fight on the battlefield.
How could he be relieved?
When he went to the battlefield before, he was not afraid of death and had no worries, but this time it was completely different.
Chu Xingchen wanted to protect his safety, but in his heart, Chu Xingchen's safety was the most important.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I taught you all the poisons in Shadow. I'm no worse at using poisons than the people from Wu. When the time comes, I'll take Cheng Keng with me and there won't be any accidents."
"I know the country of Wu well enough, and I will definitely stop the country of Wu."
Xiao Wang also advised Chu Xingchen that Shadow should stay with her and protect her as the most important thing.
After discussing it, Xiao Wang left.
When Chu Xingchen saw that it was late, he didn't care to say too much, and set out again under Zhou Buyan's faint gaze.
Zhou Buyan: One time is not enough, so I have to do it twice.
I watched His Majesty go to Lingzhou twice.
Come to think of it, Lingzhou is also waiting for the torture. As expected of Xiao Wang, he just doesn't move and directly messes up the mentality of the two people.
When Chu Xingchen came out of Liangyi Hall, Xiao Wang hadn't gone far yet and asked her if there was something she hadn't finished talking about.
Chu Xingchen smiled and explained that he was going to Feiyu Palace, but he didn't notice the palace attendant hiding not far away.
Xiao Wangwang noticed it and recognized it as a palace servant from Feiyu Palace.
He and Chu Xingchen chatted for several words before they separated. Seeing them separate, the palace man slipped away.
Baojian had been looking forward to it for a long time. When he heard Chu Xingchen coming, he quickly came out to pick him up and said, "Your Majesty is here."
But even though I was here, I thought I was going to be let go or kidnapped halfway by Xiao Jun.
Fortunately, Mr. Xiao didn't snatch it. They were almost dying of panic.
Thank you Mr. Xiao for not robbing me.
"Where's Lingzhou?"
Chu Xingchen walked in slowly and felt some movement inside, "Are you still cleaning up?"
Bao Jian responded vaguely and carefully waited for Chu Xingchen to enter.
As soon as Chu Xingchen entered, the sword and the golden gun that came out looked at each other, and came out and closed the door from the outside in tacit agreement.
"Why does it smell like alcohol? Did Lingzhou drink?"
As soon as Chu Xingchen entered, he saw the wine glass and smelled the wine, so he asked aloud.
She was answered by the closed door of the room.
When Chu Xingchen saw them closing the door, he reflexively opened it. As soon as he touched the door, he heard Ling Zhou's voice.
"Your Majesty, are you talking to me? Because the people from Feiyu Palace gave me practice, I drank some wine."
Chu Xingchen heard that Lingzhou's voice sounded like he was drunk, so he paused and asked, "Are you drunk a little too much?"
"No." Although he drank some wine, he was not drunk. It was just for courage.
"Your Majesty, why don't you come in? Do you want me to go out and hug you?"
Ling Zhou's voice sounded again, and Chu Xingchen hurriedly replied.
"No, no, I'm coming in."
Chu Xingchen was stunned when he entered, because Lingzhou tonight... was very different.
He had a familiar red headband on his head, but he was wearing a white robe.
Lingzhou was a military general, and he was accustomed to wearing darker clothes. The color he wore most often was red and dark red. At first glance, he looked like a young general.
It was the first time I saw him wearing such clothes. The material was soft and drapey, tied loosely around the waist, and the chest was looming.
He supported his head with his hands and leaned on the bed, giving Chu Xingchen the feeling of a beautiful man lying down.
This exciting scene made Chu Xingchen's heart skip a beat. He felt something was wrong and his steps suddenly stopped.
"Why are you not moving again, Your Majesty?"
Lingzhou stretched out his hand.
Chu Xingchen froze, "Wait for me to drink some water."
She made an excuse to go back and pour the tea, but just as she was about to drink it, Ling Zhou stopped her from behind.
"Your Majesty, this is wine. You can't drink it. The water is here."
Ling Zhou was taller than Chu Xingchen. He spoke from behind, and his breath brushed against her earlobe and neck.
His hair fell gently on his neck, and his clothes lightly brushed against his body.
Chu Xingchen couldn't help but tremble.
"What? Is it cold?"
Lingzhou didn't take more than a few steps and stood behind her, as if holding her in his arms. He put down the cup in her hand and poured her a glass of water.
"Warm water."
Chu Xingchen hurriedly took it and took a big step to the side to avoid it, "Thank you."
Ling Zhou was watching her at leisure, "Why is Your Majesty hiding so far away all of a sudden?"
Chu Xingchen shook his head while swallowing the water, "I didn't hide, I was just thirsty."
"Why does Your Majesty want to drink water when he sees me? Is your blood boiling when you see me? Are you thirsty?"
Chu Xingchen was very lucky that she had already swallowed the water, otherwise she would have choked.
"I'm just thirsty..."
"Understood." Ling Zhou glanced at me with an understanding expression, then took Chu Xingchen's hand and walked inside, "I've drank the water, now you can go to bed."
"Lingzhou, I think..."
"You don't think about anything, Your Majesty." Ling Zhou interrupted Chu Xingchen and took her in forcefully.
Seeing the bed getting closer and closer, Chu Xingchen hurriedly said, "Lingzhou, it's better for us to sleep separately."
"No, we have to go together."
Lingzhou spoke with a hint of burning the boat.
He was gentle and firm, and moved closer to Chu Xingchen who was forced to sit on the bed.
"Your Majesty, I might just die on the battlefield. You can't be so cruel and just let me go. You can't let me die in peace."
"I don't like fake things, so tonight we have to fight for real."
He doesn't want to consummate the marriage in a false way, he wants it to be real.
