It was very hot in the autumn afternoon, and Liu Longxiang still felt the scorching heat after opening all the places where the carriage could be ventilated. This time he went to Dongwen Kingdom as an envoy, because he was attacked several times on the way to the capital of Dongwen Kingdom, so when he returned, the king of Dongwen Kingdom There was a special increase in the number of escort troops, and there was a lot of noise along the way, so that Liu Longxiang had to wear the envoy's complicated costumes and pose at all times, coupled with the hot autumn tiger weather, it was so hot that it made people irritated .

Yu Hong's entourage this time was ordered by His Majesty to protect Liu Longxiang's safety. He disguised himself as a small head of the honor guard of the Nanming Mission, and was also responsible for taking care of Liu Longxiang's diet and daily life on weekdays. At this time, Liu Longxiang was hiding in the sedan chair The heat was unbearable, but Yu Hong, who was riding a horse under the scorching sun, was relaxed and at ease. Seeing Liu Longxiang lift up all the curtains of the carriage, Yu Hong immediately rode over to stop him, "If something happens to you at the border of Dongwen Kingdom, it will definitely make the already relaxed The relationship between the two countries is tense again, are you afraid that cold arrows will not hit you?"

Liu Longxiang frowned, and replied disapprovingly, "What are you afraid of? It's not about you."

Xiaoliu Zhuangyuan's words made Master Yu extremely ironic. Although he insisted on his own opinion, his words subconsciously softened a lot, "Be obedient and put down the curtain. I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you all the way. You have to give it to me yourself." I'm blocking you?"

Facing Yu Hong's gentle eyes like water, Liu Longxiang's flushed cheeks couldn't help becoming hot again. Although he was reluctant on his face, he still put down the curtains of the carriage according to his words, leaving only the man next to Yu Hong. His face was not covered, but he leaned against the car window and talked to him, "Brother Ji captured King Qige in the north so that Shuobei would not dare to move rashly. In the south, my sister and Ye Huizhi have also collected the lost land. Now that we are married to the crown prince, it is not easy to cause conflicts on the surface. At this time, we have also reached an agreement on the east side, and the crisis in Nanming will be solved soon."

Yu Hong looked at Liu Longxiang puzzled, not understanding what he meant when he suddenly said these things, Liu Longxiang sighed, "In this situation, I'm afraid that he will be forced to do something terrible. It's all arranged."

"Of course everything has been arranged, but people's hearts are so deep, who dares to make a promise to say that it is safe," Yu Hong analyzed, "I don't think he will and dare not do it. Monarchs, ministers, fathers and sons, it's not true. When he was in a desperate situation, he would not think about it, not to mention that Yongzhou City and Fengzhou City in the southern border had not been captured, which somewhat gave the prince some hope. In fact, the prince did not have half the affection for the Holy One, and the Holy One was no different. It’s just that the sage, Shengming, knows that the people of the Nanming country cannot be entrusted to the crown prince.”

Liu Longxiang agreed with a hum, and then asked again, "Do you think my sister and Ye Huizhi will attack Fengzhou City or Yongzhou City first?"

Now that the battle in the south is going smoothly, Liu Banjun and Ye Huizhi are leading the Zhenwei army like a broken bamboo. Even Fengzhou City, which Zhangwu led to suppress the rebel army for a long time, in the eyes of everyone feels that it is only a matter of time before it can be recovered. I said my own thoughts, "The abolished king guarded Fengzhou City, and the lost land in the southern border was occupied by the Nanpi Kingdom. The Zhenwei Army has been fighting against the Nanpi Kingdom. From the perspective of the situation, it is natural to take it all at once. The last Yongzhou City occupied by the Nanpi Kingdom will drive the Nanpi Kingdom out first, and finally clean up the Fengzhou City where the king was abolished."

Liu Longxiang retorted, "But if they don't just want to drive Nanpi Kingdom out, if they want to pursue the Nanpi army and wipe out Baonan territory for more than ten years without worry, then the Fengzhou City behind it will become a variable. If the abolished king sends troops to them It is bound to be the enemy."

After listening to Liu Longxiang's concise analysis, Yu Hong couldn't help sighing, "Shangshu Liu always yelled that it would be a pity in his life that he failed to train you into a good man. Now it seems that may not be the case. I'm afraid Master Xiaoliu is hiding something. If you Ken Lu, you can switch to someone else for the mission, and you don’t need your sister, a woman, to go into battle when you go to the southern border.”

Liu Longxiang frowned, "What's wrong with a woman, my sister shouldn't have been confined in a courtyard, and when it comes to fighting against Nanming, there are several men who are worse than her, I am ashamed, or you can try it?"

Yu Hong had a sudden realization, "It turns out that you have already been calculating in your heart."

Liu Banjun and Liu Longxiang's sister and brother are deeply in love, and I am afraid that there is no one in this world who knows his sister better than Liu Longxiang. Speaking of Liu Banjun's matter, I don't know what Liu Longxiang thought of, his eyes darkened like ink, Then he changed the subject, "Why are there so many chattering, whether to fight Fengzhou City or Yongzhou City, guess one."

Yu Hong was just happy to chat with Liu Longxiang, not that he was very interested in Liu Banjun, who was famous in the imperial city. Seeing that Liu Longxiang didn't want to mention his sister's affairs, he took the new topic in a good manner, "With Ye Huizhi's temperament, even if you don't For the reasons you just analyzed, I am afraid that he will also attack Fengzhou City first, after all, Ye Jinglan fell into the hands of the deposed king, General Xiaoye’s death day is approaching, how can Ye Huizhi endure it any longer.”

Liu Longxiang replied with lowered eyes, "Why not my sister."

When the two of them were silent for a while, suddenly a dark arrow pierced through the air. The dark arrow came swiftly and fiercely with murderous intent. Yu Hong almost subconsciously raised his hand and used his fan to block the dark arrow away. It is his weapon. The fan bones are made of thousand-year-old cold iron, and the fan surface is made of golden cicada silk from Tianshan Mountain. Then he got off his horse and fought against the black-clothed assassins who rushed in suddenly.

Although Liu Longxiang and his party escorted a large number of troops, they were ordinary soldiers and not martial arts masters, but these black-clothed assassins were real masters. They were not entangled with the guards. The obvious purpose was to assassinate Liu Longxiang in the carriage. Qi greeted the carriage. Although Yu Hong had brought many masters to hide in the guard of honor, he was a little overwhelmed when the incident happened suddenly.In the panic, a man in black waited for an opportunity to rush into the carriage. Seeing the shock, Yu Hong immediately took out the assassin in front of him to rescue Liu Longxiang. Flying out, the assassin thought that Liu Longxiang was a frail scholar and was a bit careless, but he was kicked out by this "frail" scholar viciously.Liu Longxiang kicked the man in black and jumped off the carriage. He quickly tore off the complicated clothes on his body, grabbed a soldier's spear/spear and entered the battle group. Liu Longxiang's marksmanship is quite exquisite, coupled with his thorough Annoyed, he was able to compete with the man in black when he rushed to kill. Yu Hong couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth as he approached Liu Longxiang. At this moment, he thought, how could Old General Lin's housekeeping marksmanship be passed down to the world? Given Liu Banjun as his granddaughter, although Liu Longxiang now puts on a gentlemanly appearance, I heard that when he was young, Liu Shangshu placed high hopes on him to train him to be a generation of famous generals. He was born in kung fu practice since he was a child. , and few people can win him.

Yu Hong kicked away the man in black who wanted to attack Liu Longxiang's back, leaning on his back while beating and asking, "Sir, are you pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?"

Liu Longxiang looked displeased, "I'm too lazy to do anything, they really think I'm easy to bully, and they make a fuss about me over and over again!"

Compared to Liu Longxiang, who rarely got angry, Yu Hong was in a better mood, and teased the angry beauty, "Actually, you don't need to do anything, just smile at them, and they will probably be captured without a fight."

Liu Longxiang looked at Yu Hong and smiled suddenly when he heard the words, Yu Hong was caught off guard and took it seriously for a moment. In just such a moment, Liu Longxiang had shot out like a dragon, and greeted Yu Hong directly. Yu Hong was so scared that he took three steps back, begging for mercy while talking A hapless man in black blocked the knife for himself.

Compared with the dangerous trip to the east and the constant war between the north and the south, the imperial city is considered to be calm at this time. From the princes and nobles to the common people, it is how they live their lives. Not long ago, the royal family was still playing with great fanfare. After accepting the concubine for the prince, what should the royal family do, and the common people also feel relieved.

In the East Palace, many places are still decorated with the big red curtains of the prince's wedding, and it seems that there is so much joy everywhere. The prince married Princess Xirong. Even though it was a wartime, the emperor still funded the prince's wedding from the private treasury. Hao Hao was dignified and dignified, but at this moment, the crown prince, who was in full bloom in the eyes of everyone, showed displeasure. Zhen Fuquan, Eunuch Zhen stood aside respectfully, and began to persuade, "Your Highness, the group we sent to Dongwen Kingdom He missed again, and now Liu Longxiang has returned to our Nanming territory, even if something happened to him again, it would not be easy to blame Dong Wenguo. The people of the palace, after entering last night, there was no movement at all, I am afraid they have already been folded inside, now I hope His Highness will make an early plan to seize the opportunity, at this point His Highness can only win but not lose, assassinate Liu Longxiang and Wen Jue are both tricks, as the saying goes, when you shoot a man, you shoot a horse first." Zhen Fuquan paused, but he said boldly, "To capture the thief, you must first capture the king."

"Bold!" The crown prince glared at Zhen Fuquan angrily. He seldom spoke harshly to this close-knit husband, but at this moment he was startled, frightened and angry, "What do you mean? That's my royal father!"

Seeing that the prince was angry, Zhen Fuquan immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously, but he continued to persuade, "Your Highness, to this old slave, nothing compares to your future. Your Highness, we have no way out. Ping, Majesty, he will not let you go."

The crown prince sat on a large chair, raised his hand and pulled Zhen Fuquan's arm to prevent him from kowtowing, shook his head and replied, "No, my father loved me the most since I was a child, and he always got married from the private treasury. Even if the war is over, as long as I don’t make mistakes, he has no reason to usurp my crown prince. Father and Emperor promised that my mother will pass me on. Everyone in the world knows, Mr. No joke."

Zhen Fuquan looked worried, "If the Holy One knows that we have agreements with the surrounding countries, what should we do?"

The prince clenched his fists and shook his head resolutely, "We did everything cleanly. As long as there is no evidence, everything is a false accusation. Don't mention what you said just now."

Zhen Fuquan respectfully replied yes, the prince wanted to be quiet for himself, and waved his hand to let him go down, Zhen Fuquan kowtowed respectfully again before leaving, just as he left the door of the study, he happened to run into Princess Xirong's current prince The concubine Bian Limeng, Bian Limeng was just about to enter the door with a bowl of soup, when Zhen Fuquan respectfully saluted the crown princess, and then persuaded, "Your Majesty, Your Highness said that he wants to be quiet by himself, and it is really inappropriate to disturb him at this time." , why don't the old servant escort the empress back first?"

The crown princess nodded meekly and obediently, and let Zhen Fuquan dismiss the other maidservants to lead the way in person. After reaching the carved corridor and seeing no one around, the crown princess asked, "What does the crown prince mean?"

Zhen Fuquan replied in embarrassment, "His Royal Highness is benevolent and filial, so he is naturally unwilling."

A hint of ridicule disappeared in Bian Limeng's eyes, and she said in a gentle voice, "Your Highness is naturally benevolent and filial, but those of us who serve the crown prince have to think and do more for him. Xirong has a medicine that is colorless and tasteless. I can’t detect the toxicity, I’ll hand it over to you, do you know how to do it, is there someone who can be used for us?”

Zhen Fuquan bowed and replied, "Madam, the fate of our Highness belongs to the people's hearts, and there are many people who want to make a contribution to the new monarch. Please rest assured, Madam, the palace is not a place where water is not exposed."

Bian Limeng smiled softly, as calm and pleasant as a worry-free flower, but what she said was completely opposite, "As long as the emperor of Nanming dies, the merit will naturally belong to the father-in-law. The palace and the crown prince are now on the edge of the cliff. Only the father-in-law is the one to rely on."

Zhen Fuquan seemed to have seen the splendor and wealth that was right in front of him. He was not only the most trusted person of the prince, but now he boarded the big ship of Princess Xirong. Eunuch Zhen saluted more respectfully and cautiously, "Don't worry, my lady humiliation."
