From Shadowguard to Queen [Transmigration Book]

79

In the next few days, the two armies had another confrontation in Hengzhou. Xiao Weixin did not have the advantage in numbers, but he won easily.

Xiao Weixin sat alone in the big tent, but there was no joy on his face after the big victory. When You Shu came in with the rice bowl, he saw him looking gloomy and wondering what he was thinking. He put the rice bowl on the On the low table, came over and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Weixin came back to his senses, he patted You Shu's hand and pulled him to sit together, he frowned for a while before saying: "Xiao Shu, do you think...we won too smoothly?"

"Isn't this a good thing?" You Shu wasn't surprised. This is the plot in the book, and the victorious battles are all due to the strong aura of Xiao Weixin's protagonist, so there is nothing shocking about it.

Xiao Weixin still frowned, shook his head and said, "No."

"Although Liu Tiezhu is not a threat, he is by no means an easy person to get to where he is today. The so-called military adviser next to him is probably the confidant of the old thief Xia Maoan. Since they can plan so much, it shouldn't be so Without a fight."

"I've been wondering if there is some conspiracy."

You Shu thought about it carefully, but he still couldn't think of any problems, but Xiao Weixin is not a person who is worrying unnecessarily, since he said that there is a problem, then there should be a problem, and You Shu absolutely believes in his judgment, "So , what are you going to do?"

Xiao Weixin thought for a while, and then said: "I can't think of it for the time being."

"I've been thinking recently that there might be something else in Xia Maoan that we don't know."

You Shu thought for a while and only felt a pain in his head. He dragged Xiao Weixin up from the collapsed bed and walked to the table, "If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it after dinner. It's okay to be hungry."

The conditions for joining the army are limited, Xiao Weixin's food is of course impossible to be as exquisite as when he was in the mansion, although he is not picky, but a close friend like You Shu still notices that he eats less, seeing that his figure is thinner than before , I was also a little worried.

So in order to find something good for his prince, You Shu got up early in the morning to go hunting, and caught some pheasants for him to nourish his body.Xiao Weixin also found out that there was chicken soup today, and asked wonderingly: "Where did you get the chicken soup during the march?"

"I did it." You Shu filled a bowl for him, "I boiled it roughly, and didn't put anything in it except the fungus, so you just drink it first."

Xiao Weixin looked down at the bowl of chicken soup exuding a strong aroma, then at the gauze wrapped around You Shu's arm, and pushed the bowl of chicken soup to him again: "I don't need special treatment, Xiao Shu should. Eat more."

"I eat meat." There was a gentle smile in You Shu's eyes, "I think meat is better for rough people like me."

Xiao Weixin felt uncomfortable, he felt that he was always protected and loved by Xiao Shu, but these should be his responsibility, "There is no need to be like this in the future, I will love you instead."

"Okay." You Shu responded, but still put the bowl back in front of Xiao Weixin's eyes, persuading him: "I finally got it, eat more."

Although he was on the weaker side of the bed, no one stipulated that the status of the family should be determined by that. In You Shu's heart, Xiao Weixin was equivalent to his wife, the other half he wanted to protect, caring for his partner It is his duty to take care of him, so he doesn't feel that he is overly pampering, he just feels that he should do so.

Xiao Weixin didn't refuse this time, but followed his example, and added a spoonful of chicken soup to You Shu's bowl, and the two ate together facing each other.

You Shu watched Xiao Weixin drink the same pot of soup and spoon with him without hesitation, and his heart warmed.

His family's prince used to have a serious obsession with cleanliness, but now he can be so indiscriminate with him without changing his face, it can be seen that he really has a lot of weight in his heart, right?

To be able to develop such a relationship with the main male god, he can be regarded as a respectable figure in the fan circle.

You Shu was very happy.

A few days later, Liu Tiezhu led his men to attack Chaizhou, which was defending Mianzhou. battlefield.

The swords on the battlefield are more dangerous than when he is on a mission. He has to beware of soldiers who may appear from anywhere. You Shu stands by Xiao Weixin's side to protect him, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.

Xiao Weixin lost nearly 1 soldiers due to the previous battles, but this time the rebel army has more than twice their strength, and they all seem to be elite. Chaizhou's terrain is not superior , Many layouts can't be used, and if they fight based on the number of people, they are in a somewhat passive situation.

Fortunately, Xiao Weixin commanded well, and the rebels couldn't win for a while, neither of the two parties could gain the upper hand. In the end, limited to Chaizhou, the two sides temporarily stopped fighting after three days of fighting, and set up camp in place to rest.

You Shu stood on the top of the hill and looked at the rebel flag a few miles away. Xiao Weixin walked up to him and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, "It seems that the people behind Liu Tiezhu are indeed quite powerful."

"So they really lost on purpose before?" You Shu frowned, "Just to delay and waste our combat power?"

After all, they are leading troops to go out, unlike the rebels who have a base camp here, with sufficient food and grass and a convenient environment. Although they have won several times, it will not be good for them in the long run, especially since the rebels have deliberately started stationing a few miles away. They are exhausted.

"There is probably enough food and grass to last for a month." Xiao Weixin whispered, "As long as it is settled within a month, it will be fine."

"I've asked Shen Qingyu to play, and the new grain is already on the way, and it will arrive in fifteen days at the earliest."

Xiao Weixin sneered, "If you want to fight a protracted war, then go for it."

You Shu nodded, "Can you trust the transporter?"

"Xie Feiyuan personally arranged for people to protect each other secretly, so it should be fine." Xiao Weixin replied, "I'm a little worried. Shen Qingyu wrote to say that Xia Maoan has been very quiet recently, and he has been recuperating at home for several days due to illness. towards."

"Will he... steal our food and grass secretly?" You Shu was very worried. A person like Xia Mao'an has almost no sense of right and wrong. As long as it helps him fight for power, he doesn't care about the righteousness of the family and the country. Now, can he let his prince win a big victory without disturbing the situation?

"I'm already guarding against him." Xiao Weixin replied, "I'm very relieved of Xie Feiyuan's work."

You Shu folded his chest and kept staring at the flying flags a few miles away, and suddenly said: "Otherwise, I will kill Liu Tiezhu, although he is a puppet, but he is really going to die, and the rebels may be in chaos for a while."

Xiao Weixin didn't answer in a hurry, he was considering the feasibility of this matter, "Don't act yet, let me think about it carefully."

After returning to the camp, Xiao Weixin grabbed Xiao Weijing, an idler, and asked him to go to the opposite camp to negotiate with the rebels as an envoy. In name, he was wooing and persuading him to surrender, but in fact he was taking the opportunity to find out the real situation.

"Are you crazy?" Xiao Weijing glared at him, "Do you still think of me as your brother?"

Xiao Weixin leisurely held his teacup and did not lift his head, "Since ancient times, the two countries have fought without killing each other, so what are you afraid of?"

"You also know it's two countries?" Xiao Weijing rolled her eyes, "That group of people are all rural rough people who haven't studied for a few days, what do you expect them to know about breaking the rules? Then what should I do if I cut it off?"

Xiao Weixin put down his teacup, and said flatly: "Then you will be loyal to the country."

"You!" Xiao Weijing patted the table, "I misread you!"

Xiao Weixin raised his head, looked directly at him, and said in a deep voice: "Fifth Brother, it's been almost ten years, you should cheer up, Elder Brother Huang valued you so much back then, you shouldn't be so decadent."

Xiao Weijing was taken aback for a moment, and sat in the chair in a daze for a long time without moving.

"I know what you've been worrying about these years, but you don't want to just hang around like this." Xiao Weixin stared into his eyes and continued, "Why do I insist on bringing you out? Fifth brother, you forgot you Have you ever been angry?"

"Who said that he would be an eloquent and unyielding envoy in the future?"

"Did you forget it?"

Xiao Weijing didn't speak for a long time, the smell of alcohol these years seems to have eroded his skin, but it never really broke his will, otherwise he would have been the second Xia Huaizhang long ago.After hearing Xiao Weixin's words, he never opened his mouth, but there were some waves in his eyes.

"I did promise to cooperate with you and help you." He said softly, "But my selfishness is more than yours. I just want to avenge Brother Huang, and I don't care about anything else."

"Even if it's a pig, it's time to wake up once every ten years." Xiao Weixin glanced at him lightly, "After this battle and returning to the court, we can take even bigger steps. I... plan."

Xiao Weijing turned to look at him, her expression was a little dazed, but under Xiao Weixin's calm gaze, she gradually became resolute, "You are really different from before."

"You just lost your concubine Xian that year. You were as weak as an ant. When I went to see you, you seemed to be dead."

Xiao Weixin chuckled, but the absurdity didn't reach his eyes, "So this is the difference between me and you."

Xiao Weijing stared at him deeply. When everyone was still studying with the Taifu in the study, almost no one noticed him. Everyone thought this weak and beautiful seventh brother was a weak and boring gourd, just like the concubine Xian. Not robbing is no threat, even he thought so at the beginning.

Only the elder brother Huang told him in private that if the seventh brother had a chance in the future, he would definitely be of great use, not comparable to other brothers, and the forbearance alone was much better than most princes.

This is also the reason why Xiao Weijing trusted him intuitively after Elder Brother Huang's death. The people whom Elder Huang praised in the past must not be bad.

"Okay." Xiao Weijing calmly picked up his cup, his whole body seemed to be reborn at that moment, there was some light in his eyes, as if he could still see the high-spirited, young and ambitious young man ten years ago.

Xiao Weixin leaned over and whispered in his ear for a while, Xiao Weijing looked a little surprised.

"I can do it?"

"Why not." Xiao Weixin raised his eyebrows, "You were the No. 1 sophistry among many princes back then, and you made your father so angry, forget?"

Xiao Weijing was silent for a while, then snorted: "That's true."

"A mere Liu Tiezhu, I can scold him and cry with half a mouth!"

When he said this, he drank the tea in one gulp, "Lend me your sweetheart. With him protecting me, I will be more powerful when I scold you."

Xiao Weixin categorically refused: "No."

"Hehe." Xiao Weijing sneered, "I risked being killed to go through this, don't you think you can't even bear this?"

"Can you compare with him?" Xiao Weixin disliked, "My Xiao Shu is not for taking risks."

Xiao Weijing was so angry that he vomited blood, took the cup and threw it over.

Is his life worthless? ? ?
