The soft-waisted princess was pinched and pampered by the ascetic prince after her rebirth

"Your Majesty, Shen Ruzhou and the Crown Prince have done such an immoral thing, and it has spread all over the capital. I really can't bear to let you be deceived, so I tell you the truth."

Unexpectedly, she didn't see Bei Xiuyan showing any anger, nor did she hear him asking whether the matter was true or not. He just waved her hand to leave.

Lu Rou completely collapsed. Such a person's thoughts are as deep as an ancient well that has existed for thousands of years, and ordinary people can't pry into them.

She walked out in despair. Vice General Zhou just finished counting the food and came in to return. "Your Majesty, the food is really not enough. You have to ask for more, otherwise the army will not be able to leave."

Beixiu Yan nodded, "I will return to Beijing tonight, and I will definitely prepare enough food."

Of course, in addition to asking for food, he also wanted to see Shen Ruzhou with his own eyes. He didn't care at all what Lu Rou said, but he believed in Shen Ruzhou, and he was only willing to ask her about the details of the matter.

The horse galloped all day and night in the Beixiu Banquet. When he approached Kyoto, he was already tired of people and horses. He decided to go to a posthouse on the outskirts of Beijing to get some food, then changed horses and continued on his way.

Before entering the main hall of the post house, I heard a group of young men in rich attire talking loudly about something.

"Have you heard about the Ten Thousand Flowers Festival? The Princess Regent and the Crown Prince, who have not yet arrived, are traveling together. Their words and deeds are very intimate. I don't know if our Princess Regent who is on the expedition knows that he is a cuckold."

After a young man finished speaking, the whole room burst into laughter.

Another young master followed: "His Royal Highness is still very capable. He had always been obsessed with his concubine earlier. Now that she has been promised to be the regent, he can still snatch her away."

Someone retorted with disapproval, "In my opinion, Miss Shen should be the one with the most sophisticated methods. The divorce and remarriage were actually just playing hard to get, just to make the prince jealous and come to her... ugh ,What are you doing?"

While he was talking enthusiastically, his companion next to him pulled his sleeves hard and winked, and the atmosphere in the hall became strangely quiet.

After realizing it, he turned around and looked back. Beixiu Yan was standing at the door.

He quickly swallowed the teasing words that came to his lips, shrank his neck and stood up with the others to greet him.

Bei Xiuyan walked straight in, sat down in the hall, and glanced at them coldly.

"You are all young masters from high-ranking families. What are you gathering here for today?"

"Back to the Regent, we came to the outskirts of Beijing for hunting. We have been running in the mountains for a day and we came here to rest and have a sip of tea."

A young man stepped forward respectfully and answered. After speaking, he touched the person next to him with his elbow.

The companion understood and nodded quickly: "We have shot a lot of pheasants and hares, and they have been sent to the kitchen. If the regent doesn't mind, you can taste some of them later."

The two of them changed the subject and fawned over each other, fearing that Beixiu Yan would blame them for the joke they just had.

Bei Xiuyan turned the ring in his hand, as if he was interested, and asked: "The rabbits and pheasants in the mountains run very fast, are they difficult to fight?"

Hearing his question, the tense bodies of the teenagers relaxed, and they began to talk about how they chased on horseback, how they drew bows and arrows, and how many prey they harvested.

And Beixiu Yan also praised him very much, "You are really young talents, skilled in riding and shooting, and have great skills. You are really a blessing to the family and the court."

Being able to receive such high praise from the regent, several people couldn't help but feel proud. They were about to brag about their abilities again, but were so frightened by Bei Xiuyan's words that they almost wet their pants.

"Since you are so brave, you might as well go to the battlefield and kill the enemy. The Beidi people are cruel and violent, and we need passionate young people like you to take care of them."

The faces of the young masters all turned pale. Their extravagant skills were enough to get them to the battlefield. They might not be able to withstand the Beidi people's three moves and they would have to go see their ancestors.

One person shamelessly asked, "Your Majesty, we are actually not good at hunting. We just found a reason to get together to have fun."

"Yes, most of those prey were brought by the followers, and some were bought from the mountain people." The others agreed. Compared with face, saving life was the most important thing.

Beixiu Yan didn't buy it, and a layer of ice instantly formed on his face. "The war is about to begin. Are you still in the mood to have fun? After enjoying the glory and wealth for so many years, it's time to serve the imperial court. In the future, the battlefield will be ready." For your merits, I will personally ask for a reward for you, so that you can honor your ancestors."

Bei Xiuyan's voice was like a knife scraping across their faces. Even if they didn't want to do anything, they were still mute and couldn't tell how hard it was to eat Coptis chinensis.

Bei Xiuyan turned around and ordered the guards, "Take them to the military camp. Remember, these are the soldiers personally ordered by the king. No one can be missing."

Hearing this, all the young people looked downcast and thought they were unlucky. The walking dead usually follow the guards to the military camp.

In the capital, Xiao Chenyan received the news that the Northern Xiu Banquet had returned to the capital. His narrow phoenix eyes narrowed and he sneered: "I came at the right time. I want to put on a good show for him."
