Selfishness

Chapter 35

When we arrived at the border, Su Yun and I changed into the clothes of the guards of the Sheng Mansion in the farmhouse, and changed our appearance a little bit by the way.

"Anfeng, remember to finish what I told you."

"Yes! I will never disappoint my little master's high expectations!" It was obvious that he was a little bit reluctant, but he still stubbornly persisted.

"Bring you back something fun. So don't be unhappy." I coaxed like a child.

"I said you two don't get tired of being crooked, okay? Let's go." Su Yun directly dragged me away.I can only say goodbye to Anfeng with a difficult gesture.

The road to the frontier is relatively peaceful, but along the way there are many people who have relocated their families.It seems that the situation in the frontier is still somewhat dangerous.Seeing this, we accelerated our pace and arrived more than a week earlier than expected.

"Who are you?" The soldiers guarding the city asked vigilantly as they looked at our large group of people.

"I was ordered to escort food and grass from Langzhou."

The soldiers were a little surprised after hearing this, but immediately became more vigilant and said, "Do you have proof?"

Chen Hui asked someone to take out the imperial decree.

"Princess Sheng?" The soldier looked surprised, and then immediately knelt down and said, "Damn it, I hope the princess will forgive me."

I probably didn't expect that the princess would come to escort her in person.

"General, please stand up. This is an eventful time, and the general did it cautiously. What is the crime?"

"Thank you, princess." The soldiers seemed a little surprised that this princess was so amiable, she was not impatient or arrogant throughout the whole process, but smiled very gently - of course I think Chen Hui's smile has never been simple.

"General, you don't need to be too polite. You should go and invite your general. Li, you should go and invite your general."

According to Yingtang's information, the person guarding the border is Xiao Han, the daughter of the prefect of Yangcheng, an important military town.His grade is similar to Chen Hui's, but he trained at the border early. He is said to be an excellent general, and some even say he is better than my father, Mo Yan.There are many rumors about her among the people. I dare not say that the whole country loves her, but at least the people in the frontier respect her very much.

"General Xiao is similar to Shui Sheng's background, they are both the general's daughter."

"I can't compare to her. She was made after hard work at the border. And I'm just a kid from a mountain city."

"Pfft. General Xiao doesn't have as many bad ideas as you, or else she would have already..." Chen Hui didn't say the next thing, but I guess, she wanted to say that if General Xiao had more thoughts, she would have rebelled long ago.The Xiao family holds military power and has always been feared by the royal family.However, due to the imminent movement of the Nan clan in recent years, the royal family did not dare to revoke the Xiao family's military power rashly.But this incident - the occurrence of the burning of food and grass, may be the beginning of relegation.When this wave of enemies is repelled, most likely the court will start to discuss who will take over.

"Looks like an upright soldier."

"That's not entirely true."

Xiao Han didn't have much information, only that she defeated the enemy's attacks many times when guarding the border.The method of using troops is very meticulous, but about her private affairs—things that can know her personal character, there are almost none.Regarding her, Yingtang has no information.But what Chen Hui said was not entirely true, it surprised me.Do they know each other?Or is it that Shengfu's intelligence network is much stronger than Yingtang's?

"Chen Hui knows her?"

"I met him at my father's birthday party when I was young, but we didn't talk to each other."

Just when I was about to continue asking, the subject of this conversation appeared.

"My lord, Xiao Han, I have lost my way, and I hope the princess will forgive me."

The visitor was wearing armor and his hair was tied up high.When she cupped her fists and saluted Chen Hui, she didn't show any flattery at all, and her every word and deed showed a soldier's neither humble nor overbearing.The eyebrows and eyes are also full of heroism. Who said that women can't be heroic when they wear armor?

"General Xiao is waiving the courtesy, I was the one who arrived early. The general doesn't need to be courteous anymore, let's distribute the food as soon as possible."

Xiao Han looked a little surprised.Probably because they didn't expect that we arrived a few days early, or that Chen Hui would talk about food and grass first.In any case, after she was briefly surprised, she immediately sent food and grass into the city, and then took us to the arranged mansion to rest.

"This side is in the desert, the conditions are simple, and I hope Princess Haihan." Although the courtyard Xiao Han arranged for us is small, it is adequate.It's just that compared with Sheng Mansion, it's really too simple.

"General Xiao, you are being polite. I am not a spoiled young lady, so there is no need for the general to worry."

It's not polite, but they are still polite one by one.At this time, I understand what Chen Hui said earlier, she is not just a city defender.He and Chen Hui's temptations with every move have never failed.Women in this era are really not simple.It seems that Chen Hui believes that this person will be his deadly enemy when all the heroes rise together.

"Then Xiao Han won't bother you, the princess should go to bed early."

Huh?Finished?I just froze, why did the conversation end?

Xiao Han stood up, saluted Chen Hui and said goodbye.He glanced at me when he got up.This is probably because they are a little curious about me, after all they were talking, and I swaggered and drank tea, but Chen Hui didn't care.Even though she was puzzled, she didn't really ask.

"Oh! I sat down and drank tea all of a sudden habitually. I even forgot that I am your attendant now."

Chen Hui smiled lightly and said, "Aren't you going to be a knight? How did you become my servant?"

"Hey, didn't you forget to change your clothes? It's okay. Next time she asks, I'll explain."

"Why would she ask?"

"Her little eyes full of doubts told me just now. When she met me alone, she would definitely ask."

"Then you'd better not see her alone."

"If you don't look up, if you look down, you will always meet. Besides, it's not a big deal. I, Mo Xu, am not a famous person."

Chen Hui was drinking tea, but didn't make a sound.I took her as default.

"By the way, where did Su Yun go? I was so busy looking at you two that I forgot about her."

"I probably went to the market. On the way here, I saw a lot of medicinal herbs."

Went to buy medicine?This is a good thing.

But I felt a little uneasy in my heart.Master Su's genius doctor is usually so stubborn that he can't turn his head.Recently, because of Yingqi's matter, it's really stupid, and I often lose my mind.

Last time a guard developed hives, so I asked her for medicine.The next day, when we were on our way, she said casually, "I don't know what's wrong with her. It seems that she often has a cold. I prescribed medicine for her, but it didn't help. You said my medicine is also good, why is it not good?" I really wanted to tell her that maybe it was a heart attack, so she went on to say: "Isn't the person who caught the cold yesterday cured? I don't think he has any cold symptoms at all. This should be a magic medicine, so he recovers quickly .”

"Wait! Fenghan?" I asked Su Yun a little confused, "Fenghan? Didn't I tell you yesterday that he gave you the Fengdan?"

"Ah? Didn't you mean Fengchi?"

Well, what you heard now has nothing to do with Yingqi, so you should deliberately change it to have something to do with her.

I drank Su Yun's wind-cold medicine, so bitter that she wanted to jump into the honey vat!The poor guard drank a few large jars of the wind-cold medicine as a wind-cold medicine.How pitiful!

However, some people looked at her, so nothing serious should happen.So after chatting with Chen Hui for a few words, I went back to my room to rest.This desperate rush really exhausted me.Let's talk about Su Yun when I wake up.

After lying on the bed for a while, I fell asleep.
