The queen is a bit cowardly

Huofu Chamber of Secrets

Huo Xian collected and sorted out the materials of Chang Lan and Longya General Baiyu, and made a detailed analysis himself. There are only two conclusions: first, the treasury of Yongguo has been empty for four years, and there are as many as 4 refugees; It has been almost a year since he and Shangjing fought for the eleven cities on the border, and the refugees from Yongguo also joined Xiajing's army, so Shangjing also lost several battles.

"It seems that Xiajing and Yong have reached a certain kind of tacit agreement." Huo Xian said: "If the combined forces of the two countries should be able to compete with Shangjing, then the emperor will definitely come forward to coordinate. If Xiajing has a strong force, send mediation results It’s also not good for Shangjing.”

Huo Xian looked at Chang Lan: "Princess, what do you think?"

Chang Lan looked at the teacup in her hand, as if she didn't hear what the teacher said.

"Princess?" Qiu Cheng reminded.

Only then did Chang Lan withdraw from her thoughts, and when she sent Jiang Qingluan away last night, she always felt a strange feeling in her heart. Even though the man was sleeping in the next courtyard, she just wanted her to stay by her side. She was already twenty-one, so it was nothing An inexperienced girl, she still understands what it feels like to like someone, but she just still doesn't understand why she likes a woman.

"What the teacher said is true." Chang Lan replied, but in fact, she only heard Huo Xian's speculation in a daze, and she didn't think deeply about it.

"Does the princess have something on his mind?" Huo Xian asked. Chang Lan was his proud disciple, and he was also his right-hand man who advised him. Every time he made a guess, Chang Lan would always make inferences. It is indeed rare for Chang Lan to be absent-minded today.

Chang Lan looked at his teacher, and quickly separated Jiang Qingluan from her mind. She returned to the point of the question very quickly, and Chang Lan replied: "I was a little distracted just now, teacher forgive me. The teacher said that the next Beijing A private alliance with Yongguo, the students think it is true, Xiajing and Shangjing have the same roots, but they have been at odds for a hundred years, Shangjing has always had our support, and Xiajing has been dissatisfied for a long time. If the two countries really reach an alliance, I am afraid that there will be turmoil in Shangjing gone."

"Students think that the case of running the bulls in Xiajing this time, and the spies from Xiajing captured by the East Palace, are probably already making preparations in Xiajing. They may want to destroy the sacrifice through the running of the bulls and affect the reputation of the emperor. It is natural for the spies to stay in our country. It is also to check the trend of our country." Qiu Cheng echoed: "It seems that we must be on guard, and I also asked the teacher to play the emperor, and our country has to prepare for border defense."

"Taking the jurisdiction of Baili County is still the most important thing." Chang Lan said: "Baili County is connected to Shangjing in the north and Fu Kingdom in the west. Now the clan management has always been weaker. Who is the head of Baili County now?"

Qiu Cheng thought for a while and said, "Chang Hong, the nephew of Zongbo Chang Zhang."

"You have to replace it with your own." Chang Lan said to Huo Xian: "Teacher, you should tell my father about this matter first. After all, it is the land of the clan. It is up to the father to decide whether it changes hands. If you can't get it back, I will use it." , let’s make another plan.”

Huo Xian nodded. Baili County is backed by remote mountains and does not produce much food. He did not expect that today it has become a battleground for military strategists.The master and apprentice made some plans again. Of course, after this time, Huo Xian also discovered Jiang Qingluan's usefulness, so he also decided to find a way to get some benefits for Jiang Qingluan when reporting to the emperor this time.

After discussing the business, they all had lunch in the Huo Mansion, and Chang Lan took Ah Li away in a car. Every time she went to the Huo Mansion, Chang Lan kept a low profile and didn't know how to ride in her Longqi car. As a result, Tianping City was bustling with people, and her car was blocked on the road.

Ah Li was sitting in the back of the car. She saw that there was sweat on Chang Lan's forehead, so she took out a water bag and handed it to Chang Lan: "Princess, drink some water."

But Chang Lan's gaze was looking at another way, and he didn't notice that A Li was calling her at all.

"Princess?" Ah Li raised his voice.

Only then did Chang Lan come to her senses: "What's the matter?"

Ah Li handed over the water bag: "It's hot, drink some water."

Chang Lan took the water bag. The water bag is made of high-quality cowhide, which is extremely insulated. This water was drawn from the deep well of the Princess Mansion, and it still tastes cool to drink now.

"This road is too congested, so I'm not in a hurry to go back." Chang Lan looked at the road leading to Xiaoqi Camp and said, "Go and see Your Highness."

Normally, Chang Lan would just go back to the house to rest after discussing matters, and deliberations are always exhausting. Today, Ah Li was a little surprised, but it was difficult for him to do so. Chang Lan said that wherever he went, Ah Li hurriedly asked the driver to turn the car around. , to the White Tiger Avenue.

Most of the people living in the west of the city are merchants, and merchants tend to go home early in the evening, so the road to the west is very smooth, Chang Lan's carriage arrived at the gate of the camp in a short while, she still followed the rules without a dragon flag cart Ask Ah Li to report that the captain guarding the gate is Chang Ting. When he learned that Chang Lan had arrived, he went to greet him in person. After entering the camp gate, he limped back to his barracks.

Chang Lan walked straight in until there were more and more horses before she saw the barracks where Jiang Qingluan worked. The room was not too far from the stables, and Ba Le was sitting at the door of the barracks sharpening his knife with a whetstone.

"Slave to pass it on." Ah Li felt that the horse smell was strong here, and he always felt a little unclean, so he wanted Jiang Qingluan to come out.

"No need." Chang Lan took a step forward: "Today, I made a special trip to see His Highness."

A Li still ran in front of Chang Lan, she walked up to Ba Le and said, "The princess is here to see your Highness, Lord Ba Le let someone prepare some tea."

Baler looked up, and sure enough, he saw Chang Lan walking towards this side. He hurriedly got up to look for Jiang Qingluan, but Jiang Qingluan was also coming out of the room.

"Princess?" Jiang Qingluan was a little different from Chang Lan's appearance: "What's wrong with you?"

Chang Lan walked towards the door by herself. There was indeed a faint smell of horse manure in the air, but she didn't care.

Chang Lan smiled at Jiang Qingluan and said, "Isn't it okay to come and see you?"

"Of course it's good." Jiang Qingluan winked at the soldier Zhang Cong who was sitting down. Zhang Cong hurriedly prepared tea, and Ba Le also went outside to get some.

"But His Highness doesn't welcome you?" Chang Lan took the initiative to find a place to sit down, and then looked around, but thinking that Huo Xian had already recommended Jiang Qingluan to her father, she should not stay here for long.

Jiang Qingluan sat down beside Chang Lan, pointed to the room and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to catch the eyes of the princess."

"Where there is His Highness, in the eyes of this palace, it is full of brilliance." Chang Lan said, her eyes fell on Jiang Qingluan's face. Jiang Qingluan has often gone out for exercises recently, and the ground is tanned, but her exotic facial features and face But it looks better because of the darker skin tone.Although she is a lady of public affairs, she is not as shy as other girls. If she likes this person, she wants to look at him a few more times, and she dares to look at him more presumptuously.

Jiang Qingluan touched his face, then his hair: "Is there something in the lonely head?"

"No." Chang Lan looked away again. After all, the liking in her heart was very secretive. Even if it was made public, it might scare Qingluan. She changed the subject and said, "Your Highness is in charge of the horses?"

"Exactly."

"His Highness knows how to ride a horse?" Chang Lan asked again. Although Jiang Qinglan rode a horse to Xiaoqi Camp every day, Chang Lan had never seen it with her own eyes.

Jiang Qingluan burst out laughing. Although she was not born in the grassland, she looked like she was four or five years old. Someone specially taught her to ride a horse. Even though it was her, the children of other princes in Fu Kingdom, regardless of gender, had to ride and shoot since they were young. .

"Of course it will."

"I want to learn."

Jiang Qingluan stood up from the table without thinking, "Okay, there just happened to be a docile mare."

Ah Li's face turned blue in an instant, and she whispered to Chang Lan, "Princess, a woman riding a horse... I'm afraid it will damage her manners."

Hearing what A Li said, Jiang Qingluan also remembered that this was Da Xin. She rarely saw women riding horses. The last time she saw a few women riding horses in West Market, they also came from Fudi.

"It's okay if you don't."

Jiang Qingluan is also worried about Chang Lan's reputation. Daxin is the center of the empire, and many people come and go from north to south. It can be regarded as open here, but some things are still very pedantic. Chang Lan is a model of the royal family. Some people pointed at the spine and scolded, and the house that was finally established could not be kept.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Chang Lan pretended not to hear Jiang Qingluan's refusal, she stretched out her hand to look at Jiang Qingluan.

Jiang Qingluan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Chang Lan wanted to help her up by herself. A Li was usually doing these things, and she didn't know what Chang Lan was thinking today, so she asked herself to pull her up, but this matter It would be a bit rude if it was placed on someone else. After all, Jiang Qingluan has a prince, but when placed on Chang Lan, it would make people feel that the princess opposite is a bit coquettish.

"It's a great honor." Jiang Qingluan took Chang Lan's hand and pulled her up carefully, completely ignoring the strange expressions on the faces of A Li and Ba Le.

"It's just this horse..." Jiang Qingluan reminded: "Princess, you have your own cart and sedan chair when you go out, but you don't actually ride..."

"I want to ride." Chang Lan pulled Jiang Qingluan and walked towards the door. She was very serious in doing government affairs, but after all, she was spoiled by the emperor and his brothers since she was a child.

"Okay, you can ride if you want."

Walking near the stables, there were already many soldiers standing there. After all, they were the princesses of the Celestial Dynasty, and they all wanted to see her beauty, but they were still driven away by Balak, leaving only a few capable chiefs standing guard. nearby.

Jiang Qingluan led the mare out. The horse that was chosen to pull the chariot for Princess Ling that day was really a colt with excellent character. Jiang Qingluan left the horse in Xiaoqi. A stallion with a good character must be docile when it gives birth to cubs.

"This horse is four years old and has given birth to one child. He has a very gentle temperament." Jiang Qingluan handed a radish to the horse while talking.

Handing the reins to Chang Lan, Qingluan said: "Since you want to ride, touch it first. I know that you people in the Central Plains choose a horse to choose a beast, but in our Fudi, a horse is a partner. Since you want it to carry you, you Get to know it first.

The horse was also clever, stretching its neck and leaning against Chang Lan. Chang Lan often rides in a car, but she seldom gets close to the horse. Now she is a little dazed when she gets close. He grabbed her hand and gently pressed it on the horse's neck.

"Don't be afraid," Jiang Qingluan said, "Touch her neck slowly, and you can also try to touch her head."

Chang Lan looked back at Jiang Qingluan, her face was extremely gentle and focused, she was really a rare beauty in the world.
