Quick travel: I rely on the childbirth system to pamper my harem
Chapter 630: Miaojiang Saint and the Prime Ministers of the Seven Kingdoms 7
Father Liu said respectfully, "Your Highness and my daughter Qiqi have been in love for many years, but you have yet to marry my daughter. I am worried, so I want to ask Your Highness, what is your intention?"
Xiao Lanjing narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Master Liu, don't worry, I will never let Qiqi down."
"But Your Highness, Qiqi is not young anymore. If we delay any further, considering her relationship with Your Highness, she will definitely not be able to marry again."
Xiao Lanjing said solemnly: "Qiqi can only marry me in this life, Lord Liu, there is no need to test it. When I come back from Southern Xinjiang this time, I will mention this matter to my father, and then I will definitely give Qiqi a grand wedding."
Father Liu hurriedly said, "With your words, I feel relieved. I will wait for your triumphant return in the capital."
……
Seven days later, the Jin army gathered outside the southern Xinjiang forest.
There is a vast forest between the two places, with swamps and rivers in between, and it takes a lot of effort to cross it.
But Xiao Lanjing had a topographic map, so it should be easy for him to overcome all the obstacles.
But he didn't expect that every time he led his army to cross a dangerous area, they would encounter swamps or miasma and poisonous insects the next moment.
Over time, the people under him no longer trusted his judgment.
Xiao Lanjing also began to feel unconfident, thinking that there was something wrong with the topographic map.
"Your Highness, we can no longer allow you to act recklessly, otherwise most of our people will be killed before we reach the hinterland."
The general said sternly, "Your Highness, please think carefully and don't lead me astray again."
If it weren't for the rich products, mineral resources, and fertile soil here, the general really wouldn't want to take his men on this trip, but the emperor wanted to incorporate it into the territory of Jin State.
These soldiers could only obey orders.
"What? Do you suspect that I took the wrong road?" A trace of doubt flashed through Xiao Lanjing's mind, and he felt a little lacking in confidence.
But in front of the general, he still put on airs.
The general said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, do you think you have brought the right person? If you have, how could you fall into these ambushes again and again?"
"ambush……"
Xiao Lanjing's eyes suddenly darkened: "It seems that these people have made preparations long ago and have changed the terrain in some unknown way. This topographic map cannot be used for the time being."
Hearing this, the general wanted to get angry.
After losing so many soldiers, Xiao Lanjing actually just remembered this. How stupid!
I really don't know why the emperor let Xiao Lanjing come with him.
Does he not believe in his ability, or does he want Xiao Lanjing to supervise him as the general?
Or——
The emperor wanted Xiao Lanjing to gain some military merit so that he could become the crown prince.
If this is true, he really cannot afford to offend this prince of noble descent.
"Your Highness, it seems that we need to find a place to set up camp. It won't be too late to go in after we have a good understanding of the terrain. Anyway, we have miasma-avoiding pills, so we are not afraid of these miasma."
The miasma in the woods can poison people silently, but miasma-avoiding pills can avoid this danger.
Actually, they had the upper hand.
"Then do as you say." Xiao Lanjing felt uneasy.
He always felt that something was going to happen, and the dream he had every day was a sign of things to come.
Could it be that Ji Qingning had been plotting against him from the very beginning?
"hiss--"
At this moment, Xiao Lanjing suddenly gasped and felt a pain in his hand. He saw a poisonous scorpion crawling out from somewhere.
Speaking of which, this poisonous scorpion has been missing since he returned to Jin State.
He searched all over his body but couldn't find it.
But now it appeared as soon as I returned to southern Xinjiang, which is really frightening.
"You came out because you knew you had to go home?" Xiao Lanjing grabbed the poisonous scorpion and squeezed it tightly with his hands. "Little thing, you are not a spy arranged by Ji Qingning to be beside me, right?"
I saw the poisonous scorpion struggling continuously.
Xiao Lanjing's fingers tightened more and more, as if he wanted to strangle the poisonous scorpion to death.
At this moment, Xiao Lanjing felt his heart tighten, as if his life was closely related to this poisonous scorpion.
He endured for a long time, then suddenly loosened his hand, his eyes becoming increasingly gloomy.
The poisonous scorpion also climbed onto his shoulder with its fangs and claws bared.
By the time Xiao Lanjing came to his senses, the poisonous scorpion had disappeared without a trace.
He clenched his fists fiercely, his eyes flashing with endless coldness: "It seems that I really can't underestimate this Gu girl. Did she know my purpose from the beginning?"
Ji Qingning, who was far away in the hinterland, suddenly opened his eyes.
She could feel that the poisonous scorpion she raised seemed to be in a very dangerous area just now, but soon the danger disappeared without a trace.
It seems that Xiao Lanjing has discovered something.
But no problem.
Even if he discovered it now, it was too late, he had become her possessed.
"The saint is awake?"
As soon as I walked out, I saw Jun Jiuchen standing outside with a teacup in his hand.
"Sir, you are in a good mood."
Jun Jiuchen said: "No one is as open-minded as the Saint. The enemy's army is clearly approaching, but the Saint is still sitting on the Diaoyutai. Does she think she has already won, or does she not want to struggle anymore?"
"Sir, you are wrong." Ji Qingning paused, "I believe in your ability, so I can be so calm."
Jun Jiuchen narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze across Ji Qingning's face.
He suddenly laughed: "But the Saint's expression tells me that you don't think so."
"Oh?" Ji Qingning raised his eyebrows, "Sir, why don't you tell me what I think."
"The Saint just thinks that if Xiao Lanjing is controlled, nothing else will happen. Or, if Xiao Lanjing is the commander-in-chief, his death can also dispel the idea of Jin State."
Ji Qingning remained silent for a moment and said, "Sir, I'm not that naive."
Jun Jiuchen laughed along: "I think so too."
"The other countries are eyeing our southern border. If we don't do something to make them think we are not easy to mess with, I'm afraid that even if Jin is gone, other countries will invade us."
Ji Qingning stood straight and said calmly: "So, this time my target is not just Xiao Lanjing."
Jun Jiuchen put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Then I wish the Saint Lady success."
The next day.
Ji Qingning did not continue to sit and wait for death, but took the initiative to attack.
He led his men to encircle and suppress a part of the Jin army.
They have lived near this forest for generations and are familiar with its structure. As for the miasma, it is as if it does not exist to them.
It was only the miasma in the forbidden area that prevented them from entering.
"Saint, we have killed hundreds of them today, and there are still many poisonous insects that have not returned. Should we let them stay in the military camp and lie dormant?"
Ji Qingning waved his hand and said, "Come back. They know we know Gu magic, so they must have prepared ways to deal with Gu insects. If we don't go back, there will probably be heavy casualties."
This was a surprise attack, catching them off guard.
But when they come to their senses, if they use fire or other things against the insects, many people will probably suffer the backlash.
"Yes, we will listen to the Saint!"
