The Chu royal family of Xijiang often walked around the border, disturbing the hearts of the people on the border. The war broke out. The border guards of Dongjiang were retreating steadily.
Zhou Ranzhuo read the secret message sent by the secret guard in his new mansion, knowing that his opportunity had come again.
Xijiang, I have a chance to win it.
"Sir, the prince invites you to go to the palace to have a talk." The boy outside greeted.
"I know." Zhou Ranzhao straightened his clothes, got up and went out.
Zhou Ranzhuo is unusual. Although his treatment in the palace was not bad before, it is always better now. He lives in a mahogany gold house and named it Nianyanyuan.
When Xia Jingsheng came to call, it must be about the war in Xijiang. The war between the two rivers is no small matter. Xia Jingchen, as the number one general in Dongjiang, must go, but after all, he is injured. Xia Jingsheng will not rest assured. Naturally, he will send someone he trusts.
To assist him, the person he trusted was Zhou Ranzhuo.
Xia Jingsheng was waiting for Zhou Ranzhuo in the tea garden. He did not rest during the journey and had to approve two official documents. When Zhou Ranzhao arrived, he put down the official documents and bowed to Zhou Ranzhao.
"I haven't seen you for a few days, sir. He has lost a lot of weight."
"Really, Ranzhuo doesn't realize it himself, but the prince has worked harder and lost a lot of weight!"
Xia Jingsheng and Zhou Ran were chatting in the cold.
"Sir, if I have something to say, I will say it directly. Have you heard about the battle in Xijiang?"
"Of course, I heard that General Zhao has rushed to the front line, and General Xia will leave soon.
"Yes, it's just that... Jingchen is injured, and you know that. I am always a little worried. Dongjiang cannot be left alone, and I can't go. Jingxuan also had a relapse of his old illness two days ago, and his legs and feet hurt when he walked.
He can't move, let alone go to the battlefield, so I still want to ask you, sir, to go with you to protect Jingchen."
"This is what I should do. Just give the order, and I will protect you life and death."
"Then I would like to thank you sir and wish you a speedy victory. But there is one more thing..."
"Your Majesty, just say what you have to say."
"Return safely. This is what I said, and it was also what Yan'er said."
"Okay...Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Commander...Yan'er."
It was a very short conversation, but from then on it was all about the needs of the war.
Like Zhou Ranzhuo, Xia Jingsheng also wanted to protect the common people as much as possible.
"Sir, Jingchen has a short temper and can't think of many things. You have to help him remember that I still want to protect the people of the world. The people of Xijiang are also common people. They are innocent and pitiful. If they really want to attack the city, I will strictly order the soldiers not to harm the people.
,violators will be punished by military law."
Yes, why are the people to blame? That is the sin of the royal family.
Zhou Ranzhuo agreed and took over one of Xia Jingsheng's detached troops. After chatting for a while, he said goodbye to Xia Jingsheng.
Nianyanyuan, return safely, the war is the most important thing, but in Zhou Ranzhuo's heart, Xia Jingyan is also the most important thing, no matter what, safety is the most important thing, and his words are still waiting for him.
Listening to what Xia Jingsheng said, the marriage with Xia Jingyan was not a problem. Just come back. Zhou Ranzhao secretly moved the Zhou royal family's secret guards, secretly took care of the Chu royal family, and met with the internal officials to end the war as soon as possible, capture Xijiang as soon as possible, and go back as soon as possible.
See Xia Jingyan.
Who knew there was no need to come early!
How could Xia Jingyan be patient? On the day Xia Jingchen and Zhou Ranzhao set off for the expedition, he followed them secretly, only to show up at the border and directly dumbfounded Xia Jingchen and Zhou Ranzhao.
"Stinky girl! Why are you following me? Do you understand that the two rivers are fighting, it's very dangerous!" Xia Jingchen's face turned green with anger, and he was about to send Xia Jingyan back.
"Just come, come! Yan'er is here just because it's dangerous. Yan'er doesn't worry about it." Xia Jingyan hugged Xia Jingchen's arm and shook it off.
Zhou Ranzhuo stood aside, helping no one, so he could only watch helplessly and couldn't say anything. Of course, he finally listened to Xia Jingchen and sent Xia Jingyan back. After all, the border was indeed dangerous.
But when the carriage was about to arrive, another soldier hurriedly sent a message.
"General, you must not send the princess back at this moment!" The soldier knelt down on one knee, sweating all over his head.
"Why?" Xia Jingchen asked, while also raising his vigilance.
"Our army was intercepted by the Chu army at the rear and cut off its food and grass. The Chu army's camp was in front of us. It was surrounded from front to back and unable to get out!"
Xia Jingchen's face instantly turned cold, and he stretched out his hand to lift the sword.
"Pass the order, let's fight to the death! The Blood Blue Army will follow General Zhao to attack the rear, and the Red Front Army will follow General Zhao to attack the front!"
"Yes!" The soldier hurriedly ran to deliver the order.
"Ranzhuo, you protect Yan'er, I will leave the Guiyun Army to you." Xia Jingchen took a token from his waist and threw it to Zhou Ranzhuo.
"good."
The army outside the camp was immediately divided into three groups and stood ready. Xia Jingyan ran to Zhou Ranzhuo to watch this spectacular scene, and was worried. Xia Jingchen's injury had not yet recovered, but he still had to lead an army to fight.
Despite being unable to stop him, Xia Jingchen still led the Blood Blue Army away. The sound of horseshoes clattering was followed by a cloud of yellow sand. Zhao Qichen stepped forward to say a few words to Xia Jingyan and then left. The number of people in the military camp was reduced by more than half in an instant.
Xia Jingyan's heart was also empty.
"Yan'er, are you in a bad mood?" Zhou Ranzhuo took Xia Jingyan's hand and walked back to the camp.
"I'm worried about my brother. The war between the two rivers has caused chaos for a long time, but I can't help. It would be great if I could go to the battlefield with my brother..." Xia Jingyan sighed, but when he looked up, he saw Zhou Ranzhuo.
Laughing!
"Yan'er, who said you can't help? You want to help the general, right?"
"That's natural!"
Zhou Ranzhuo mysteriously attracted Xia Jingyan to come closer.
"Before the war, I asked the secret guards to inquire. The secret guards quietly sent them into the Chu Palace. They discovered that the old emperor no longer had any real power, and the prince was just an empty shell. It was King Ling who had rebelled, and he still wanted to fight.
Sifang, I have been thinking about how the old man Chu Huang could start a war with Dongjiang for no reason..."
With this reply, did Xia Jingyan misunderstand what he meant? However, Zhou Ranzhuo was quite interested in hearing Xia Jingyan's thoughts.
"Do you know the quarrel between Emperor Chu and Prince Ling?"
"How could I not know that Prince Ling is the adopted son of Emperor Chu, and his biological mother is a palace maid beside Emperor Chu. She grew up with Emperor Chu, and later became an official and married into another family. Unfortunately, she was entrusted to a wrong person, and the palace maid was treated harshly by her husband.
After his death, Emperor Chu paid a private visit in disguise and stopped by to see the palace maid. Unexpectedly, there was only a cold corpse and a boy left. That boy is today’s King Ling. Emperor Chu adopted him because he thought he was unworthy of the palace maid!"
Xia Jingyan was so excited when she said it, as if she wanted to beat Prince Ling to calm down. Zhou Ranzhuo just smiled and said nothing, waiting for her to say.
"Everyone knows that Emperor Chu treated Prince Ling well, but who knew he would raise such a white-eyed wolf like Prince Ling!" Xia Jingyan frowned, "Let me just say, Emperor Chu has always been gentle and gentle, and he loves his people like a son.
How can we start a war?"
"My precious Yan'er!" Zhou Ranzhuo suddenly smiled helplessly, rubbed Xia Jingyan's face with both hands, kissed her on the forehead, then pulled her into his arms, and whispered: "You are still too impatient.
Understand the royal family."
Xia Jingyan was confused.
What the hell? What happened to the royal family? Why don’t you understand? Aren’t you a member of the royal family?
"Let's not talk about Prince Ling for now, Yan'er, if you think about it carefully, who is Emperor Chu? He is the emperor! If he has been submissive all his life and is controlled so easily, how did he become the emperor? Do you know the world?
