I was a prince in ancient times

Huo Sen frowned uncontrollably when he learned that he was summoned by Xie Anlan.

Tomorrow he was going to enter Yicheng to join the Marquis of Weiyuan, and he didn't want to make any further complications at this juncture.

Especially now that there are still many refugees surrounding the barracks, he has to work hard to deal with it.

Who knows if these refugees will suddenly attack, the more under such circumstances, the more they cannot be taken lightly.

Especially when he heard someone from below report that Xie Anlan was worried about the refugees, Huo Sen went all out.

His worst fears were about to happen.

These noble people who have lived in the capital all year round do not know the sufferings of the world, and think that they will be grateful when they see those refugees rewarding them with small favors, but they don't know that this is causing trouble to the upper body.

Sometimes sympathy does not arouse the gratitude of others, but it will bring disaster to oneself.

Huo Sen came to Xie Anlan's carriage worriedly.

At this time, Xie Anlan and Lu Chengjiao were warming up against the fire, and the orange flames danced on the two of them, flickering on and off, making it difficult to see their expressions clearly.

"My lord." Huo Sen approached and saluted.

Xie Anlan heard Huo Sen's voice and waved to him, "General Huo, come over and enjoy the fire."

Huo Sen approached apprehensively.

"Sit down, don't be reserved, I just want to chat with you, nothing else." Xie Anlan couldn't laugh or cry when he saw that he looked like he was facing a big enemy.

Does he look scary?

Huo Sen took advantage of the situation and sat on a rock by the fire, hesitant to speak, as if he didn't know where to start.

Seeing him like this, Xie Anlan, who originally wanted to say a few words of greeting, directly got into the topic, "Huo Sen, I just called you over. There is nothing else, but there is something I want you to look at."

Huo Sen, who was on tenterhooks, heaved a sigh of relief, "It's okay to invite the prince."

It's good to deal with straight-hearted people, there's no need to grind.

Xie Anlan took out something similar to a stool from behind, but completely different from a stool.

Huo Sen was confused.

The prince asked him to come here just to show him this strange stool.

What's so good about this?

No matter how you look at it, it is not as comfortable as an ordinary stool, and it even gets in the way.

Although the prince sewed some gaudy cotton cloth and leather on it for comfort, Huo Sen really didn't want to understand the purpose of this strange-shaped stool.

Being stared at by Huo Sen with a strange gaze, Xie Anlan coughed unnaturally, "Chen Gui, go and bring my Maxima here."

Chen Gui, who had been waiting by the side for a long time, heard the words, and impatiently brought over the horse that was tied to a bare tree not far away and was leisurely eating the feed.

This thousand-mile horse was rewarded by Xie Cangming. Except for the day when Xie Anlan rode it for a period of time, he had never ridden it before. As a result, the other horses were exhausted all the way down, and it was still smooth and smooth.

Without delay, Xie Anlan put the strange-shaped stool in his hand on the back of the Maxima.

In an instant, Huo Sen understood the unusualness of this stool!

A pair of weather-beaten eyes were fixed on the horse's back, making no secret of the eagerness in the eyes.

But when he thought that this was Xie Anlan's horse, he silently looked away, turned his head and asked, "My lord, I don't know if this thing has a name."

"Of course there are." Xie Anlan smiled, "Its name is Saddle."

This saddle is much more advanced than Huo Sen and the others who put a few pieces of cloth on the horse's back.

Not only is the anti-top seat designed, but two stirrups for feet are also designed on the side.

When I was looking for someone to sew, I also deliberately left two shrinkable cloth bags for storing scattered things that would not hinder the movement.

It can not only make riding easy, but also reduce the burden on oneself.

"Good name." Huo Sen couldn't tell whether the name was good or not, even if he was a rough man, he could just praise it anyway.

After boasting, he still didn't forget to insinuate, "I don't know what the lord is talking about when he showed this saddle to the officials."

"Of course I want to send it to General Huo." Xie Anlan didn't play sloppy, and spoke bluntly.

Huo Sen was obviously taken aback, "Give it to me?"

Why doesn't he believe that there are such good things in this world that are waiting for the pie.

Huo Sen's heart suddenly became vigilant, but his expression remained the same.

Although Huo Sen concealed it very well, the discerning Xie Anlan still saw his doubts, and smiled, "Of course, the hardest worker in the whole army is none other than General Huo. Who will give this saddle to General Huo?" .”

Chen Gui was not very happy when he heard this.

He is also very fortunate. He does his duty every day to protect the prince, take care of the horses, cook and other things. It is not easier than Huo Sen. Why does the prince not think of him as a close person first, but an outsider.

Not to mention the taste in Chen Gui's heart, Huo Sen's heart was also beating drums.

He always felt that there was a deeper mask hidden under Xie Anlan's smile, which he couldn't see through.

However, he did not dare to refuse the gift from the prince, so he could only bite the bullet and agree, "Then I will thank the prince for his kindness."

Seeing that Huo Sen accepted it, Xie Anlan smiled deeper, and urged, "Since General Huo has accepted it, why don't you experience this saddle."

Huo Sen nodded, and asked his subordinates to bring his horse, put it on the saddle, and rode around the camp.

The ever-changing stern face revealed a bit of softness.

For people like them who have been fighting on horseback all year round, it is very important to have a comfortable mount.

In the past, everyone spent their time trying to wear two more pairs of trousers, and put more soft cloth on the horse's back, but these things are too cumbersome. s things.

Therefore, in order to adapt to horse riding, they basically use it as much as possible.

It's not necessary, and it doesn't mean they are willing to suffer, it's just that they haven't found a way.

And the saddle rewarded by the prince is small and light, which perfectly fits all his imagination about saddles.

After he came back from a walk, he couldn't bear to put down the saddle anymore.

"My lord is righteous, let me release the official from the fire and water, and I will definitely obey what my lord orders from now on." Huo Sen is not a person who is used to taking other people's things, slapping his ass and leaving. He will definitely repay this kindness in the future report.

Seeing that he spoke so sincerely, Xie Anlan was not polite to him immediately, "Speaking of which, I really need your help right now."

Huo Sen, "..."

He guessed it was a trap, but he didn't expect to get into it so fast.

"My lord, please tell me." Huo Sen, who lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot, looked helpless.

"It's nothing else... just that I saw those refugees outside..."

Before Xie Anlan finished speaking, Huo Sen couldn't help interrupting him, "My lord, I'm sorry to say that the lord should not interfere with the refugee matter. The most urgent thing now is to enter Yicheng as soon as possible to meet Weiyuan Hou, and hold on to it." Yicheng, to prevent more civilians from being displaced.”

Why are there so many refugees out there? Isn’t it because Marquis Weiyuan first lost Yanhe Weicheng, then Jingcheng, and retreated to Yicheng. If Yicheng was also lost, there would be twice as many refugees as today!

If the prince insists on rescuing these refugees, delaying the time and delaying the fighter plane, then it is really a small loss.

If it wasn't for taking into account the status of Lord Xie Anlan and taking advantage, he would probably have lost face by now.

"Huh???" Xie Anlan was confused, "When did I say that I would interfere with the refugees outside?"

Huo Sen looked embarrassed, "Didn't the prince mean that just now?"

"no."

Xie Anlan is not stupid, there are so many refugees outside, it is impossible to solve it in a short while, if one is not handled well, it will easily lead to violence/chaos, no matter how you look at it, it is thankless.

and so……

He decided to let someone else do it.

"Just now I want General Huo to order one or two reliable subordinates to take my warrant and ask if the officials in Jiazhou and Luzhou are all dry food? There are so many refugees gathered together, there is not even one person to deal with them." None, did they all wash their necks and wait to be guillotined, they must properly deal with the refugees within half a month, otherwise they will all wait to see the King of Hades."

When Xie Anlan spoke, his aura suddenly changed, the aura of being generous in the past disappeared completely, and it became sharp and domineering.

This is the aura that a prince should have.

Huo Sen and Chen Gui, who were used to getting along with Xie Anlan in a normal way, were startled. They almost forgot that the prince is the prince after all.

Even if he is a little more approachable now and then, it can't cover up his innate power.

"My lord, calm down." Huo Sen knelt in front of Xie Anlan on one knee, thinking that he had misunderstood Xie Anlan just now, and felt very ashamed, "This subordinate will send his subordinate to do it."

"Another 500 people will be transferred from my guards, and those who dare not follow will be decisive." Xie Anlan folded her hands behind her back, parted her thin lips lightly, but the words she uttered made people feel chills.

"Yes." Huo Sen's whole body trembled slightly, and he responded with a resignation, and went to work.

This is why the ancients wanted to climb up even if they sharpened their heads, because the people at the bottom have no human rights.

The above sentence, the following will break your leg.

Xie Anlan was glad that she was a prince, except for being a little poor, she basically didn't have to struggle.

That night, Huo Sen ordered people to go to the major mansions of the two state capitals to deliver Xie Anlan's orders, and he believed that the refugees here would have results in the near future.

If even the refugees can't be solved, then these officials don't have to stay.

Just as the guards were making waves in the capitals of the two states, Xie Anlan and the others finally entered Yicheng and joined Weiyuanhou.

From a distance outside the gate of Yicheng, a group of people and horses were standing by the side of the road, waving flags to meet them.

The carriage was driving in front of him, Xie Anlan opened the window and saw a middle-aged man sitting on a maroon horse at first sight.

His eyes were burning like a torch, his expression was resolute, and he was dressed in an armor that didn't know whether it was originally brown or was stained brown by blood. He looked very majestic.

A long black knife hung from his waist, and his wide and rough palms kept holding the handle, never letting go for a moment.

This is Wei Yuanhou who is famous in the court.

Seeing Xie Anlan get out of the carriage, he dismounted neatly, and even the soldiers behind him also dismounted and knelt down in front of Xie Anlan.

"The ministers pay homage to His Royal Highness Chen Wang." The voice of the armor and the rough welcome of the soldiers merged into one on this empty road, which made people's hearts surge.

"Master Hou, please get up quickly." Xie Anlan smiled and helped Weiyuan Marquis Fu Zheng up, "Speaking of which, it should be me meeting Lord Hou."

Before Fu Zheng understood what Xie Anlan meant, Lu Chengjie got out of the carriage right after him, and bowed to him, "Uncle."

Fu Zheng looked at the nephew in front of him whom he hadn't seen for a long time, his face twitched, and he knelt down again in extreme reluctance, "Meet the princess."
