Men, listen, grab the top of the mountain and stand in the center position

Tang Bo stopped at the door and Zhang San bowed, "Brother Tang, please stay."

"Talking about this at this time will only cause more trouble."

Zhang San disagreed. Few people can do everything. "Just a reminder to the lady."

All the general's letters are in the study.

"The general couldn't handle it, yet he bothered her with it..." Tang Bo felt a little regretful. As a good wife, his wife had done a good job. She was not a god.

"You know what the brothers have to say!" Zhang San said in a low voice. It was obvious whose idea it was that the general suddenly decided to go north.

This risky action directly scared most of the brothers.

"This is just like the initial attack on Jingzhou." Tang Bo stopped him, "Brothers, please stop talking. This is tantamount to cursing at your mother with a bowl in your hand!"

Zhang San opened his mouth and stood face to face with Tang Bo, speechless.

With no news, Ji's mother went to the City God Temple outside the city before going to sleep and bowed, chanting: "Buddha bless you, come back safely! God and Buddha bless you!"

Wangshu washed his butt and lay down. After a while, he started coughing so hard that he almost died. "Cough! Cough!"

Xiaoqing pressed the man's back a few times to help him cough up the phlegm, and then spread a cold towel on his face to reduce the temperature. Zhuzhu brought over some fever-reducing medicine, "Drink some!"

However, this disease does not allow one to lie down. Once one lies down, his throat becomes itchy and he cannot stop coughing. Wangshu fell asleep sitting up at night.

Xiaoqing watched over her, knowing the changes in her body, and prepared a cloth pad for her.

Coughing, headache, insomnia, life was difficult, the war was urgent, Wangshu really wanted to just cover his head and sleep.

In Luoyang, Qin Xiuyuan, clad in imposing armor, led Li Fugui on a night patrol of the city walls, guarding the various sections until dawn before returning to the government office where they were staying.

In the morning dew there was a young lady in blue, with a gorgeous figure, a calm and relaxed demeanor, and a radiant face. She was silent, but her breath was like the fragrance of orchids, and her appearance was graceful and elegant.

Qin Xiuyuan slowed down his hurried pace. Even though they had seen each other many times, Li Fugui naturally couldn't help drooling. He covered his mouth with his sleeves and wiped it away while the boss was still unaware.

The daughter of King Nanyang is truly a fairy from heaven!

Meeting a half-acquaintance, Qin Xiuyuan turned a corner and entered through the side door, never making eye contact with the graceful beauty who remained silent.

Li Fugui was not surprised. He prepared water for washing and breakfast. They sat opposite each other, one taller than the other, and ate. He picked up some dried meat and smacked his lips, "You're so old, yet you still don't do anything practical!"

No one can compare to this clever lady. When others deliver food and fodder, she also delivers contraband salt and iron. When the road is blocked by ice and snow, the general will resell the contraband salt on the spot in exchange for food. Absolutely!

After a long journey, they didn't even go hungry. Fugui gave his boss a thumbs up and said, "Unlike Madam, you've taken care of everything for us brothers, including food, clothing, and other necessities! I'll have to flatter you when I get back!"

Qin Xiuyuan raised his head and drank the salty porridge with minced meat in one gulp. He wiped his mouth and pushed the thumb of his subordinate, "You talk nonsense in front of the lady all day long. There are other things to talk about, but don't bother her with this."

"General, when can I not make my wife happy?" You underestimated Li Fugui! Li Fugui despised the boss. Unlike you, you are not good at talking and you get beaten up from time to time!

Qin Xiuyuan frowned at the obvious contempt: ...You don't understand flirting!

"Don't reveal a single word about the affairs of outsiders."

Tsk! Li Fugui didn't take the boss's words seriously. "When the Madam comes, she'll know what the King of Nanyang is up to with just one look! Oh, the Madam trusts you and knows you won't do anything rash! Haha!"

Haha, this is not a secret.

Qin Xiuyuan ignored them, stood up, looked down at them, and stretched lazily, "Once Chuxia is settled, brothers can bring their wives and children over!"

The Northern Expedition went surprisingly smoothly, crushing everything with unstoppable force, and was only one step away from reaching the summit. The old general was now firmly entrenched in Chang'an, so a siege wasn't urgent. The newly recruited guards of the various cities would require some time to train and integrate. Once things stabilized, I'd bring my wife and two children to my side, and that was all.

She loved brightly colored clothing and precious stones, and in this prosperous place, doing business was especially easy. The child was almost reaching the age of enlightenment, and as a father, he had to personally teach him the basics of archery, horse riding, and shooting.

I have to find a foal for my son first. My son is a chubby kid, my daughter is cute and adorable, and my wife is quirky. If they were all around me right now, it would be so lively.

Fortunately, he listened to his wife and made the right bet. Now the entire east and most of the south are under his sphere of influence. The huge Jizhou is strong on the outside but weak on the inside and is almost vulnerable.

The rumor that his wife and children were to come over was spread, and the soldiers, who were already worried, tightened their nerves again. Some of the nobles who had sent beauties and singers could not help but sigh and clench their wrists. Seeing that the daughter of the King of Nanyang had been waiting for her husband every day but returned empty-handed, they gradually turned their attention elsewhere.

The governance of Luoyang City was like that of Jingzhou City, with a moderate degree of flexibility. Taxes were exempted for one year, and the military and political personnel from various places were taken over. Those who were dissatisfied with the new army could leave on their own. Those who committed crimes would be caught and their bodies would be exposed on the city walls.

All businesses in the city are thriving, and tourists are flocking in. The city walls are covered in blood, and the scene is renewed every day. For a time, prosperity and cruelty coexisted.

Li Fugui shrank his neck and said to Zheng Da, who was in charge of internal affairs, "We've killed a lot of these people in the past two months, so go easy on them."

Zheng Da picked up a handful of gold, silver and treasures that were brought in to clear the way for the settlement. There was a clattering sound, "Ding!" The sound of gold was pleasant to the ears!

It is no exaggeration to say that this prison is the treasure trove of Luoyang City.

"This guy wanted to deliver a secret letter to King Hancheng, so his death is not a pity."

Li Fugui continued to shrink his neck, "The general said that the situation is generally stable and bygones are off the table."

Zheng Da threw down the jewelry and said, "I know!" He just turned a blind eye and closed it. He kicked Li Fugui and said, "Tell the general that the daughter of the King of Nanyang looks pure and innocent, but her reputation is far from good..."

She was pretending to be a noble lady every day! When she saw the general entering the city, she immediately dumped her former fiancé. Tsk!

Li Fugui rolled his eyes. "Come on, the general is waiting to pick up his wife and the others. No one else can even touch the tip of his clothes!"

The King of Nanyang's surrender was indeed a great thing. The general had said that as long as he was there, he would ensure that the King of Nanyang would enjoy wealth and glory. As for women, so what if they were princesses? The general was not interested in them.

It’s hard to say. Zheng Da touched his chin and said, “Maybe the real princess is on the way.”

Chang'an was besieged from both within and without, and without crops to grow. A powerful general was eyeing the city from the west, challenging it day and night at Tongguan. To the east, most of the former Jizhou province had been taken, and Hangu Pass had been surrendered to the Nanyang King through a combination of internal and external forces. In just four months, the general's power had grown tremendously, and he now remained in Chang'an, filling the city with nobles and wealthy individuals, waiting for the internal strife to overwhelm him.

At this time, let alone the princess, I'm afraid they should be asked to hand over the emperor's child! The people of Jizhou are furious, and the world is dissatisfied with the Zhou family for a long time!

"Isn't it said that the princess is a great beauty in the north? Even a real princess can't compare to her." Li Fugui thought that the beauty who was as beautiful as a dream and as beautiful as dew was indeed beautiful. Her skin, which was whiter than frost and snow, was exposed in such a cold weather. Although she had broken off the engagement, she must have been a virgin. If... hehe!

Zheng Da kicked the short and ugly guy with a wretched face!

"I'm just thinking about it!"

"No! I have to watch over you for my sister-in-law!"

Bah! You are meddling in other people’s business! Li Fugui rolled on the ground in anger.
