The next day, when Bai Chuxiao woke up, Chu Tianze was already dressed and sitting by the bed reading a book.

Bai Chuxiao murmured, "You are in such good spirits!" In her impression, Chu Tianze never seemed to need to sleep in. In his previous life, this kind of physique was most suitable for studying and being a slave...

Chu Tianze chuckled, "With Xiaoxiao by my side, I slept very well. Do you want to get up and have breakfast?"

Bai Chuxiao smiled faintly and said, "Okay."

Lan Xiang and Lan Xin came in with the food. Bai Chuxiao was about to get out of bed when Chu Tianze picked her up again.

Lan Xiang and Lan Xin couldn't help but bury their heads and laugh secretly. The prince and the princess seemed to have become much closer in the past two days...

Bai Chuxiao caught a glimpse of the two little girls' expressions and couldn't help but smile helplessly, "What are you doing? I only injured my arm, not my leg. I can walk by myself."

Chu Tianze ignored her and put her on the table before slowly saying, "Let's eat."

Then he skillfully brought some side dishes and porridge to her mouth.

Bai Chuxiao quickly said, "I can do it myself."

The two little girls next to her were still watching, and she needed to be fed. If this got out, where would her reputation be? If she was kept like this for another two days, she would become a cripple!

Chu Tianze ignored them and turned around to stare at the two girls coldly, as if to say: You have no manners! Why don't you get out now!

Lan Xiang and Lan Xin lowered their heads quickly, "Prince and Princess, please enjoy your meal. We are going to serve the Concubine Dowager now."

After saying that, he fled in panic. The prince had changed, and became so scary! He even wanted to take their lives. From the time the young lady woke up until now, they hadn't even said a few words to her...

Chu Tianze smiled and said, "Eat, no one is watching you."

Bai Chuxiao couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, but still didn't reject his behavior. A useless person is a useless person. It's quite comfortable to lie down, isn't it?

After finishing breakfast, Bai Chuxiao said leisurely, "When do we set off?"

Chu Tianze said calmly, "Wait until you are well before leaving."

Bai Chuxiao moved her arms and said, "Gu Xiangjun, your archery skills are really good. I am really in trouble."

Chu Tianze said calmly, "He is a recognized archer in Xiyue."

Bai Chuxiao nodded, it was true that she was well-known for what she did. "Let's go today. There is still a war going on at the border. My minor injuries won't be a big deal."

Chu Tianze lowered his eyes, "It's freezing outside, what if I get sick again? The border has also called a truce, and there won't be any fighting for nearly half a month..."

Bai Chuxiao said unhappily, "I grew up in the northwest, and I'm more used to this weather than you are. Have you been able to spend the past two days talking to your mother?"

Chu Tianze was startled. Xiaoxiao fainted in his arms that night. He had been feeling uneasy for the past two days. He wanted to stay by Xiaoxiao's side all the time, but he had indeed neglected his mother...

Bai Chuxiao concealed her expression and said softly, "Mother left the palace suddenly. Now she has come to the northwest and is unfamiliar with the place. You should spend more time with her in the future."

Chu Tianze nodded, but he felt that there was something else behind her words...

Bai Chuxiao smiled again and said, "Let's go, let's go visit our mother. Let's pack up and leave. Staying in an inn is not a big deal..."

Chu Tianze said softly, "I think this inn is pretty good."

In the imperial study of the palace, the Regent, the Prince of Yingchuan, and the Duke of Zhenguo were all gathered together. Chu Tianling, dressed in a dragon robe, was looking at the greeting letter from Prince Ping:

Congratulations to my sixth brother on becoming the new emperor. Previously, the matter in Yizhou was delayed due to snow viewing and drinking, and the people below were not flexible and adaptable, which actually delayed your majesty's important event. Please don't blame your majesty...

After reading it, Chu Tianling couldn't help but snorted

"What a great King Ping, what a great Third Brother"

Zhang Yu, who was standing next to him, said in a deep voice, "Prince Ping is not a concern. Prince Yan actually led the Northwest Army to openly confront the Fuzhou garrison, and secretly withdrew the Xuanjia Army stationed in the southern pass back to Yongzhou. At the moment, we can't capture the hostages, so let's think about how to deal with Prince Yan."

Chu Tianling glanced at Chu Wenzheng coldly, "If the emperor's uncle hadn't been unwilling to help, Bai Chuxiao might have been caught already."

Chu Wenzheng lazily lay in the chair, "I have even sent out the secret guards, what else does Your Majesty want?"

Chu Tianling sneered. Hidden guards? He probably wanted all those he sent out to die, just to eliminate the dissidents...

Wei Junyan said in a deep voice, "Xiyue has sent another 200,000 troops. Previously, the Northwest had submitted a petition requesting reinforcements."

Chu Tianling said coldly, "Don't send troops to Lao Qi and Murong Yuan."

Zhang Yu said slowly, "When the new emperor ascends the throne, your majesty should immediately summon all the princes to the capital to pay homage, including the Prince of Yan. As for the northwest, your majesty should first send a new commander to take over the military power. If the Prince of Yan and Murong Yuan are unwilling to hand over the power, then no more troops will be sent to reinforce them, and all the imperial troops will be recalled at the same time."

Chu Wenzheng raised his eyebrows, "This move puts the King of Yan and Murong Yuan in a dilemma. My brother-in-law is indeed a talented person. I admire him."

With hundreds of thousands of troops from Xiyue behind them and hundreds of thousands of troops from the imperial court in front of them, Prince Yan and Murong Yuan were indeed unable to move. Wei Junyan said in a deep voice, "The prince is right, but the new commander-in-chief..."

It has to be said that there are indeed not many generals with names in the court nowadays.

Zhang Yu said in a deep voice, "I think we can let Pang Kun, the general of Jin, Fu and Shuo, be the commander-in-chief. If they are unwilling to hand over their military power, Pang Kun can lead the troops of the three states to besiege Zhenzhou and trap them all in the northwest... The deputy commander-in-chief can be my son or the prince of Wei. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Chu Tianling pondered for a moment, "The father-in-law is thoughtful, but Pang Kun's loyalty..."

Zhang Yu said slowly, "Pang Kun is a trustworthy person. Your Majesty can summon his daughter to the palace and give her a high position. This is feasible..."

Chu Tianling lowered his eyes. Zhang Yu was indeed a great help. His insights into government and military affairs were extraordinary. In this case, he didn't mind enduring Zhang Miaoke, a fool, staying in the position of queen...

"In that case, let's follow what the father-in-law said about the selection of the deputy commander..."

Wei Junyan's eyes flickered, "Your Majesty, let Prince Zhang be the deputy commander."

Zhang Yu raised his eyebrows, still a little bit unconvinced that he would voluntarily give up this opportunity, while Chu Wenzheng seemed to smile, as if he saw through it...

Chu Tianling said in a deep voice, "Father-in-law, what do you think?"

Zhang Yu smiled, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

How could he have had such an opportunity when the previous emperor was still alive? Everyone only knew that he was the prince consort. Now everything is different. He is the only king of Daxia with a different surname...

In Fuzhou Town, Bai Chuxiao, who was tightly bound, and Chu Tianze, who was wearing a blue cloak beside her, helped Concubine Jing get on the carriage.

It was freezing cold, and she was injured, so she couldn't ride a horse...

Lady Jing looked at the two people sitting on either side of her and said with a smile, "You two don't have to stay here with me."

The couple's relationship was getting better and better, and she was very happy. The carriage was moving slowly, and it would take quite some time to return to Dingzhou. If he accompanied her, the two of them would not be able to talk to each other in private...

Bai Chuxiao said helplessly, "Mother, what are you talking about..."

Chu Tianze also said softly, "Mother, I haven't been with you properly these past two days..."
