warm garden

I can see it all, and I have to see it, the pillar of the Song Dynasty is a person who knows nothing about the world, is that okay?In the history books, many emperors have innumerable military exploits, and there are also many princes and princes who have been on the battlefield for a long time.Since ancient times, there have also been personal conquests by the royal driver. You are too protective, and you are not good to Chen'er.If you are worried, just let Yun'er and Mingxuan take care of you. "

Official: "..."

Duke of Wu

Zhao Anchen was reading in the study, Ming Xiaoyang carried a few military books to Zhao Anchen's study, dragged a chair and sat down side by side.

Zhao Anchen was also used to it, and consciously moved to one side, Ming Xiaoyang always liked to share a study room with him, a desk.Ming Xiaoyang asked while flipping through the book: "Zhao Yi, do you know the art of war?"

Zhao Anchen said: "Well, Uncle Ming taught me. Aunt Yun also taught me."

Ming Xiaoyang raised his head and exclaimed: "When? How come I don't know?"

Zhao Anchen said: "When I was young, I sneaked out of Jingxi Palace, and occasionally went to see Uncle Ming. Later, when you grew up, it was not convenient for you to enter the palace, but Aunt Yun often came to see me in the palace. My martial arts mother taught me the first half. Aunt Yun After teaching the second half, I also taught the art of war formation by the way."

"Heh, heh heh, I think you are the real one, right? You have learned my family thoroughly, even better than my own son!" Ming Xiaoyang sneered twice, shook his head and continued to read.

Ming Xiaoyang asked again: "Are you good at medicine?"

Zhao Anchen said: "No."

Ming Xiaoyang's self-confidence finally rose a bit, and he said: "Uh, if you can even master my family's medical and poison skills, my sense of existence will be really weak."

Zhao Anchen glanced sideways, and quietly raised his sleeves, revealing his snow-white wrists, with his palms facing up, he put his hands beside Ming Xiaoyang's book.

Ming Xiaoyang looked at it, straightened his body pretendingly, put his fingers lightly on Zhao Anchen's wrist, and said in his heart: "The body is so good, not bad, Zhao Yi." He said solemnly: "Well, this young master, According to the old man, I want to congratulate you, you are a happy pulse, and you are going to have a precious son! Hahahahahahaha!" After speaking, he slapped the table and laughed.

Zhao Anchen looked at him, smiled lightly and shook his head.

"Since just now, what have you been doing? Didn't I notice it when I stood at the window for so long?"

The two turned their heads to look over, and there was Shen Lingshuang standing outside the window!

Ming Xiaoyang suddenly stood up, pointed at Shen Lingshuang, and shouted: "Oh! Do you women like to lie on the window? Why did you come to the Duke of Wu's mansion?"

Shen Lingshuang said innocently: "If I want to come, I will come. I will come to see Aunt Yun, and I will also come to play with you!"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Why are you looking for me to play? Are you free? In broad daylight?"

Shen Lingshuang nodded earnestly with her hands behind her back, walked into the study and said, "I'm really not busy recently, and I don't know the place well, and I don't have half a friend, so I came to play with you!"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "You! You you you!..."

Shen Lingshuang said with a smile: "As for it? It scared you to the ground? What did you do just now? This Duke of Wu's mansion is so big, a prince and a young prince have to squeeze into a study and a table?"

Ming Xiaoyang said uncomfortably: "You are too lenient."

Shen Lingshuang looked at Zhao Anchen who was as cold as ice, and asked Ming Xiaoyang: "Is he... pregnant?"

Ming Xiaoyang stood on the ground and stroked his forehead, then raised his head and said: "You girl is too out of touch!"

Shen Lingshuang teased on purpose, and asked again: "Whose child is he pregnant with? Dr. Ming's medical skills are superb, is it possible to find out? Hahaha!"

Ming Xiaoyang tilted his head and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Shen Lingshuang complained: "Hey! Do you not want to see me that much? I told you to play with you!"

Ming Xiaoyang sat back on the chair, lowered his head to flip through the book, and said, "No time, read a book!"

Shen Lingshuang also dragged the chair, sat opposite the two, and said, "I'm waiting for you, there's nothing fun in the capital, I don't know, you take me to play!"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Go find Le'er! She knows all the fun, I will go to the border with the army in a few days, and I will read at home by my father's order. I don't have time to play with you, Miss Shen!"

Shen Lingshuang said: "I want to go too!"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Nonsense! How can a girl join the army!"

Shen Lingshuang curled her lips unconvinced: "Aunt Yun is also a woman!"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Can it be the same? My mother is a general, and I can't beat her in all martial arts. How can you compare your three-legged cat kung fu to my mother? Hah."

Shen Lingshuang: "You really don't want to go out to play?"

Ming Xiaoyang said firmly: "Don't go out!"

Shen Lingshuang: "Hmph! I'm going to play with Le'er!" Get up and leave the study.

Ming Xiaoyang breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Phew, my sister is born to be useful!" Looking at the expressionless Zhao Anchen, he was startled: "Uh...you don't have to be so angry, right? Your eyeballs are frozen!"

Zhao Anchen didn't speak, just read a book by himself.Ming Xiaoyang took a few glances at Zhao Anchen's face, but there was no reaction, so he lowered his head and honestly flipped through the military book.

A few days later, Sima Han and General Luo Yuning led 15 imperial troops out of Beijing and went to the north.Ming Xiaoyang was wearing a battle armor, with the unnamed sword on his waist, riding on Tianyou, holding the Yanyue Saber, and walked in front of the army with General Sima Han.General Luo's son Luo Zhan also went to the side with his father, happily following Ming Xiaoyang.Ming Xiaoyang looked back, and saw the four princes were ordered by the emperor, standing on the city wall to see the army off.

Kang Wang and Qing Wang desperately waved at Ming Xiaoyang, but couldn't hear what they were shouting, Ming Xiaoyang thought, it was nothing more than taking care of themselves on the road and returning safely.

Ming Xiaoyang saw Zhao Anchen standing on the side, raised his hand and waved towards the city wall.Ask General Sima Han: "Uncle Sima, why is Zhao Yi dressed differently from other princes? Why is he wearing armor? Is it exactly the same as me?"

Sima Han smiled and said: "Oh, after your father equipped you with two sets of new battle armor a few days ago, he also equipped you with two sets of the same armor as you. I also asked, and your father said that King Ning also wanted to Yes, don’t you just wear it on your body?”

Ming Xiaoyang: "Oh, so that's the case. He's aggrieved when he's a prince, and sometimes he's not as free as I am. I can only look forward to it on my clothes..."

Sima Han said: "My lord's battle armor has special regulations, so I have to order it for ten days and half a month. King Ning said he was in a hurry, so he wanted to be the same as you. You two have the same shape, height and appearance. The same, at first glance they look like twin brothers, interesting!"

The former army had been out of the city for a while, when almost all the army was out of the city, they saw a man wearing a white war robe, holding a long gun, riding a Dawan BMW, galloping out of the city gate, galloping past the army, rushing towards former army.

King Kang stood on the city wall and was stunned. He looked sideways with King Qing and found that the sixth younger brother who had been standing beside him was gone!

King Kang pointed to the general in white robe and silver armor and asked King Qing: "Fifth Brother, Fifth Brother, look quickly! Who is that? Is it Brother Ming? Didn't he leave long ago? Could it be Sixth Brother? "

King Qing was also terrified, and shouted, "Oh my god! Who else could it be if it's not the sixth brother? Why didn't I notice it usually? At first glance, the sixth brother looks like a general!"

Kang Wangdao questioned: "Is this the point? The point is, is he going to the border with the army?"

King Qing exclaimed: "Huh? What is the sixth brother doing? He can't lead an army, and he can't fight. He is pampered and pampered like us. How can he bear this long-distance march? He has suffered for nothing?"

Kang Wang tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, "What do you think the sixth brother is doing with a long|gun? Does he know how to use it?"

King Qing: "...Definitely not, it looks good when you hold it, and it matches the clothes very well!"

Kang Wangdao: "Well, I think so, the sixth brother is indeed a delicate and elegant person! I admire it!"

☆, Hu's Rebellion

After Ming Xiaoyang left the capital for a while, he heard a fast horse galloping behind him, he looked back and said in surprise: "Zhao Yi!", Zhao Anchen reined in the horse and walked slowly, walking side by side with Ming Xiaoyang as if it was a matter of course.

Ming Xiaoyang opened his eyes wide and asked: "Zhao Yi, there is a difference in sending you thousands of miles away, even if you don't want me to send you so far, right?"

Zhao Anchen's tone was steady: "I'll go with you!"

Ming Xiaoyang and General Sima Han exclaimed at the same time: "Ah?"

Ming Xiaoyang asked: "You are the prince, did your father let you go?"

Zhao Anchen said: "Father agrees."

Ming Xiaoyang smiled silently when he heard this, and smiled happily.Sima Han's head was as big as a bucket, and he sighed: "Oh, Your Highness King Ning, I think you should go back. If there is something wrong with this, how can I explain to the officials! How can you bear this?" Traveling long distances, eating and sleeping in the open air?"

General Luo Yuning let out a "poof" laugh, and said with a smile: "Brother Sima, we have a heavy responsibility this time!"

Zhao Anchen said very calmly: "Ming Huan can bear it, so I can bear it."

Sima Han shook his head and said, "How can you compare with him? Xiaoyang was born as a general. He practiced martial arts since he was a child. He is rough-skinned and thick-skinned. You..."

Ming Xiaoyang interrupted very dissatisfied, and argued: "Oh? Uncle Sima! I'm not thick-skinned? I'm also a handsome man, okay?"

When the Luo family father and son heard it, they sat on the horse and laughed. Luo Yuning laughed and said: "Although what my nephew said is good, but from your own mouth... Ha ha ha ha..."

Zhao Anchen lowered his head, held back for a long time, and said in a low voice: "I also practiced martial arts since childhood."

Sima Han looked at Zhao Anchen's fair and delicate face, and sighed in disbelief: "Oh..."

Ming Xiaoyang suppressed a smile and peeked at Zhao Anchen, who was slightly aggrieved with his head down. He thought it was very funny, and the waves in his heart were surging. He wanted to stretch out his hand to hook his beautiful chin, and make fun of him again. Of course, this is the military man. Before, Ming Xiaoyang resisted this shameless impulse.

Luo Yuning accidentally stared at the spear in Zhao Anchen's hand, startled, and murmured: "This gun..."

Xiao Luozhan turned his head and asked, "Father, what did you say?"

Luo Yuning said: "Oh, it's nothing." He said in his heart: "This gun is one of Duke Wu's three guns 'Zhanlong'! It can't be wrong, its body is solid, and the spear's edge is unstoppable. It’s heavy, and it’s impossible to give it away for fun. But you’ve never heard of a prince who practiced martial arts?” He had to look at this Prince Ning carefully again.

Hu Fu.

Hu Huai hurried back to Hu's mansion from the city gate, got into his grandfather's study, and said, "Grandfather, grandson has been watching, the army has left the city."

Hu Hang asked: "Is there really 15?"

Hu Huai said: "Yes, six marches, all out of the city, is 15."

Hu Hang's son Hu Kang also came in from the outside and said, "Father, there is nothing unusual."

Hu Hang pondered for a moment and asked, "Are all our people ready?"

Hu Kang said: "Everything is ready, my son has sent a message, and they will quietly enter the state capitals around Bianjing in batches in three days."

Hu Hang sighed, and said: "Alas... I originally discussed with Liao Xia, pretended to transfer the army, and wanted to lure Ming Ruiran and Bai Heyun away, but in the end it was Sima Han and Luo Yuning who were sent out. It's all to blame This King Ning said that it is very important to guard the capital, and that Duke Wu should not act without authorization. Usually, this King Ning is quiet, but unexpectedly he is a ruthless character. Fortunately, he is still young, and in the future, this person will become a serious problem."

Hu Huai said: "Grandfather, shall we kill this King Ning?"

Hu Hang frowned, and said: "Why don't you grow up? You don't care about your head! Don't forget that your aunt is still a queen, the prince is wrong, and the Hu family is going to suffer! You forgot that we Hu How did your family get kicked out of the capital overnight? After climbing for nearly 20 years, you have another chance to make a move today!"

Hu Huai knew he had said the wrong thing, and said, "Yes, my grandson was reckless."

Hu Hang said again: "Huai'er, it's not easy for our Hu family. When your grandpa and I followed the Tai|Zu to fight the world, I thought I could earn a Danshu iron coupon for our Hu family, a hereditary prince, But do the eight founders of the country have the share of our Hu family? Let alone the duke, not even the marquis. It is said that the Tai|Zu emperor is kind-hearted, loyal, brave and sincere. In my opinion, he is the most suspicious. I heard that there are people Speak to the emperor, saying that my mind is not upright and cannot be reused. Not only did Emperor Tai|Zu not treat me as a prince, but he only gave me a military rank of fifth rank. Even the commander of the imperial guards in front of the palace still didn't have my share, so I was asked to take the post of commander of the horse army in the guards of the imperial guards. It's too much to deceive! Fortunately, soon after, Emperor Tai|zong got it In the shadow of a candlelight ax, I killed the Tai|Emperor Taizu, and your grandfather and I were able to stand up and become the current second-rank Taiwei. However, although this Taiwei is high, it will not last long. Unlike the Duke and Marquis, it cannot be hereditary. , nor can we keep my Hu clan forever prosperous, so I sent troops to Tubo and made your aunt a queen. If your aunt can give birth to a prince, our Hu clan will definitely ensure that your aunt's son ascends to the throne. It's a pity... Your aunt is not favored by the officials. She adopted a fourth prince in the palace to protect herself. Even an adopted son is better than nothing. In order for the fourth prince to become a prince, we The Hu family also contributed a lot, but unfortunately they didn't succeed in the end. Alas...that's why we have to make another plan. You father and son must be careful and don't be reckless. I am also old. If we don't succeed, we will You have no chance!"

Hu Kang said: "Yes, father!"

Hu Huai said: "Yes, grandfather!"

Hu Hang said again: "I have been in business for many years, and in several places far away from Tokyo, I have found some local officials in the state capital who are easy to buy. Through the officials of the state capitals, I have quietly raised more than [-] of our own personal guards and private soldiers of the Hu family. People, in order not to attract people's attention, they are incorporated into the local Hunan army. We will use them when we plan to cause trouble! You must remember to check this matter frequently to prevent mistakes. If any short-lived ghost finds out this secret, get rid of it immediately !"

Hu Kang said: "Yes, Father"

Hu Hang said slowly: "Actually, the generals in command this time are not Ming Ruiran and his wife. It's a pity, but it's not all for nothing. After all, Ming Ruiran recommended me to be the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard in front of the palace, hahaha , Not bad! In this way, once Ming Ruiran and his wife leave Beijing in the future, I will be able to command all the forbidden troops in the capital more logically, and our Hu family will not necessarily be unable to sit on the throne by then!"

Hu Huai excitedly said: "Yes! Our Hu family will also sit in the Song Dynasty. If we don't give us dukes and marquises, we will be emperors ourselves!"

Hu Hang nodded: "Having said that, you still need to be extra careful. Ming Ruiran and Bai Heyun are not easy nuts to chew on. If you don't see a rabbit, you won't be a hawk! Let this couple live a few more days." Let’s go. Kang’er, contact Xia Liao’s secret agent, it’s not enough to pretend to transfer the army, a few small fights can lead the snake out of the hole!”

Hu Kang hesitated and said: "Yes, father, but father, it is easy to pretend to be different, if they are really asked to use weapons, will they agree?"

Hu Hang smiled slightly, his eyes flashed: "I will agree. You go!"

Hu Kang agreed: "Yes, father." After saying that, he went out.

Hu Hang looked at his grandson and said, "Huai'er, you have to be brave! Your father is only a son like you, so don't be so edgy all the time. Also, there are many beautiful ladies in Tokyo, and all those who are interested will be accepted." Get married and give birth to more descendants of the Hu family, so that they will be of great use in the future, if you dare to disobey, just tie them back!"

When Hu Huai heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Yes, grandfather!"

Hu Huai was taught by his grandfather, and he was even more proud of himself. Thinking that in the future, the entire Song Dynasty would belong to the Hu family, and immediately felt that he would become a prince immediately. When he walked, his steps seemed more arrogant than usual.

☆、Jianmen Tiger Girl

Ming Le was really bored staying in Duke Wu's mansion, and thought: "My parents are too busy to go back to the house, my brother also went with the army, and brother Ning Wang didn't know where to go, so I'm left alone... oh... .. These days, Sister Shen often comes to play, but Sister Shen has a great career, so she can't always come to play with me..."

"Leer! Leer?" Shen Lingshuang came uninvited again.After entering Duke Wu's mansion, he shook his head and looked for his playmate and tour guide everywhere.

Ming Le was feeling melancholy, when she heard that it was Sister Shen, she immediately ran out of the room and promised, "Sister Shen! I'm here!"

Shen Lingshuang said with a smile: "The weather is fine today, where shall we go?"

Ming Le thought for a while and said, "Let's go to listen to the opera. There is a very special theater called Mengdie Garden on Four Seasons Street in Beijing. This theater is different from other theaters. Other theaters sing the same This old playbook. Mengdieyuan sings all new plays. Usually, if someone makes up a good new story, write it down and give it to Mengdieyuan. If it is good, Mengdieyuan will make the story into a play. Come and sing, many people are willing to write new stories for them, there are often new plays, very lively! Let's go and listen too!"

Shen Lingshuang felt that this idea was very good, and said: "Okay, let's go now!"

The two happily went out of the house to listen to the opera.

Ming Le is not like her mother who wears men's clothes all day long, but she likes to wear women's clothes. It is hot in summer, and she wears plain organdy over her middle clothes, bouncing around like a white elf all day long Everyone in the capital does not know that Wu Guogong is a rare handsome man, and Bai Heyun is also a peerless beauty like a fairy. Although Ming Le is only 13 years old, she is also very beautiful. She happily led Shen Lingshuang to Dream Butterfly Garden.

As soon as I arrived at Four Seasons Street, I saw a ruffian-like hooligan leading a few servants on the long street, walking sideways on the street with disgusting steps.

Shen Lingshuang can also be regarded as a martial arts practitioner, and has a lot of money and wealth. She has always been fearless, never hiding or letting go, and going straight forward. Na Mingle only cares about the delicious food on the street, and never cares about people.

When I got closer and took a look, heh, the road to Yuanjia is really narrow.Finally, I can see the rascal's face clearly, it's Hu Huai!

Hu Huai also saw Shen Lingshuang, stepped forward to stop her, and said with a smile: "Hey? Little girl, we met again, hehe, this is called fate, where are you going? How about taking me?"

Shen Lingshuang sneered: "Who am I? Is your hand ready?"

When Hu Huai heard this, he couldn't hold back his face, tilted his mouth, and said arrogantly: "Little girl, I think you are very pleasing to the eye today, don't be crazy, then Ming Xiaoyang can't protect you today, he got out early in the morning, I Let's see who dares to save you in the capital today, you should obediently go home with me and give birth to some fat boys, I won't treat you badly!"

Shen Lingshuang sneered, full of contempt, and said in her heart: "I don't know if the hands are good, but the brain must be bad. Ming Xiaoyang's medical skills are really not good enough!"

As soon as Ming Le heard someone mentioning her brother, she jumped and ran over from the sugar figurine stand next to her, took a sugar figurine by herself, handed another to Shen Lingshuang, raised her head and asked, "Do you know Ming Xiaoyang?"

Hu Huai looked at it, and thought: "Oh, where is this beauty! It's terrible, this must be brought back to the mansion to raise!" With a wretched smile on his face, he stretched out his hand to touch Ming Le's little face.

Shen Lingshuang picked up the saber and unceremoniously knocked off his hand, and scolded: "Don't touch her!"

Ming Lezai glanced at the wretched man in front of him, frowned, and asked, "Sister Shen, who is he?"

Shen Lingshuang said: "He is the grandson your brother mentioned, scum."

Ming Le nodded and said, "Oh, so it's my grandson. It's rare for my brother to be right once. It's not easy. Hmm."

When Hu Huai heard this, he said, "Hmph, neither of you can run away today!" With a wave of his hand, he called the servant behind him: "Go! Catch me back!"

Shen Lingshuang handed the sugar figurines to Ming Le, and drew his sword to fight with the group. Ming Le held the two sugar figurines in one hand, stood in the middle of the street, motionless, and said regretfully, "Oh, sister Shen, your eyes are not right. Great, this martial art is even worse!"

Shen Lingshuang said: "I'll clean up these boys in a while, be careful with that grandson!"

The flesh on Hu Huai's face twitched, and he rushed forward to catch Ming Le, but Ming Le didn't move, and stretched out his hand that didn't hold the sugar to grab Hu Huai's four fingers. .Before Hu Huai could howl, Ming Le took down the white snake-bone long whip around his waist, swirled his head, and made a move of "Controlling the Dragon". I couldn't get up, and I couldn't breathe because of the pain.

Pedestrians and common people on the street cheered loudly: "Little girl is doing a good job!" "Whose girl is so beautiful, like a fairy!"

This Ming Le held the sugar figurine in one hand and the snake bone whip in the other, and stood there without moving, beating the grandson and his group to the ground.

Hu Huai folded his hands, grinned and asked, "Little girl, who are you?"

Ming Le said: "I am Ming Xiaoyang's younger sister, my father is Wu Guogong, do you want to seek revenge from me?"

When Hu Huai heard this, he knew that this little aunt was also someone who could not be offended, so he turned around and ran with arms folded in resentment, and the people behind him burst into laughter.

Shen Lingshuang said with a smile: "Your brother will say twice before making a move, but you are so straightforward!"

Ming Le handed another sugar figurine to Shen Lingshuang, and said: "My brother is a man, and he has to pretend to be a gentleman first. Let me be polite first and then serve as a soldier. I am neither a man nor a gentleman. You don't need to pretend, it's easy!"

Shen Lingshuang smiled and said, "Haha, that's right!"

The two walked towards Mengdiezhuang happily again.

Hu Huai was sweating profusely from the pain and folded his hands. He didn't need to ask any questions, and ran to the bone elder with ease, thinking with red eyes: "Why is this more painful than last time?"

The bone elder took a look and asked, "How did you do this?"

Hu Huai gritted his teeth and said, "It was pinched by a little girl!"

The doctor asked suspiciously, "Huh?"

Hu Huai yelled: "What are you? Hurry up!"

The doctor shook his head and said: "You, I can't do anything, you were broken last time, this time it was broken, how can you connect it, the best thing I can do is to help you keep your shape and prevent your hands from becoming ugly. , even if I try my best, it will definitely be more uncomfortable if it rains on a cloudy day, and if I want to go back to normal, I'm afraid it won't work."

Hu Huai grabbed the doctor's front and threatened, "If you can't cure me, I'll kill your whole family."

The doctor was frightened and said: "If you kill my whole family, it will still be impossible to cure me. I can keep your hand like this, and it will be even worse if I change it to another doctor!"

Hu Huai's hands were wrapped around his head as thick as his head again. He went home in mourning, knelt down in front of his grandfather again, and cried, "Grandfather, my grandson is dead. My only seedling of the Hu family has been murdered." Twice, people were beaten into cripples every now and then, look!"

Hu Hang was shocked, and quickly raised his grandson's arm and asked, "What's going on?"

Hu Huai cried: "It's their Ming family again!"

Hu Hang thought in his heart: "Wu Guogong and Mrs. Yun are both hugging each other when they go in and out. Huai'er will definitely not bump into it to find bad luck. Didn't Ming Xiaoyang leave Beijing? Didn't he leave? What kind of conspiracy is this?" Quickly asked: "Ming Xiaoyang?"

Hu Huai said: "No, it's his sister!"

Hu Hang was stunned: "I'm afraid I've made a mistake? His younger sister is only a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl?"

Hu Huai burst into tears: "That's right, it's that kid, their family is all monsters!"

Hu Hang helped his grandson to sit on the chair, gritted his teeth and said, "The Ming family is indeed the nemesis of our Hu family. When the day comes when the old man makes trouble..."

Before Hu Hang finished speaking, he heard his grandson howling again: "Ah! It hurts me to death! It hurts so much again! Ah..."

Hu Hang patted Hu Huai on the back and sighed: "Why do you always provoke his family? After all, it's not the right time."

Hu Huai said aggrievedly: "I didn't know it was the Ming family, and there was no writing on the face, she was just a little girl, who knew it was a monster..."

Hu Hang looked at his grandson's hand: "Oh..."

☆, I want to eat fish

The 15 troops marched all day, rested their supplies, and set up camp for the night.After dinner in the evening, some of the sergeants had a rest, and some chatted in a circle.

Ming Xiaoyang happily said: "I didn't expect that the war meal is quite delicious!"

Luo Zhan said: "Brother Ming, you can eat anything if you're hungry after walking all day!"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Uncle Sima, why didn't Sima Cheng come with you?"

Sima Han said: "He was also clamoring to come, but his mother refused to let him, saying that he had just negotiated a marriage and the marriage was scheduled to be at the end of the year. I don't know when he will come back from this expedition, so I didn't let him come."

Ming Xiaoyang asked curiously: "Which family is the girl from? Is the future sister-in-law pretty?"

Luo Zhan said with a smile: "Beautiful! She is the daughter of Qi Yushi's family!"

Ming Xiaoyang nodded sincerely, "That's really beautiful!"

Zhao Anchen asked: "Do you recognize it?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Well, of course I recognize her. That's my Aunt Hua's daughter. She often came to my house to play when she was young. She was born beautiful since she was a child."

Zhao Anchen said, "Aunt Hua?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Qi Yushi's wife, Wang Yuehua, has a very good relationship with my mother, and watched me grow up."

Zhao Anchen said indifferently, "You... know a lot of people."

Ming Xiaoyang smiled: "It's okay, you'll get to know each other slowly in the future, you've been in the palace for 18 years, it's already pretty good to know me, haha."

Luo Yuning said: "Nephew, don't worry. When you become an adult, all the aristocrats in the capital who are of the right age to be married will fight to marry you. Don't worry, your daughter-in-law must be the most beautiful."

Luo Zhan also said: "Well, Brother Ming, you don't know, your name is very resounding in the inner circle of the nobles, many girls have been reading your name since they were young, and they are desperately learning poetry, flower arrangement and tea art. Because of your existence, we have indeed produced a large number of talented women in the Song Dynasty, and how many gentlemen have to accept your love in the end to marry talented wives, hahaha!"

Sima Han said: "Well, that's true. The daughter of King Ling, the princess Zhilan, who is as beautiful as a fairy, has been thinking about marrying you, a wishful man, all day long. The officials who saw you off on the tower this morning Among them, she is the only one, and I heard that she got up early to see you off."

Ming Xiaoyang knew that he was very popular, but he didn't know that he was so popular, so he was a little embarrassed for a while, and said: "It shouldn't be."

Sima Han said: "When you are 20 years old and weak, you will see how many thresholds of your family will be broken by the matchmaker, and you will know that it is not just a matter of impossibility, there will probably be a wave of people flocking to the Duke of Wu's mansion in the capital. Blind date frenzy."

Luo Yuning also responded: "Yeah, there is an army of marriage proposals. At that time, there will be no shortage of noble daughters who want to be your concubines!"

Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said: "The concubine is free, my man can only love one in his life, like my father, he only guards my mother."

Sima Han said: "Well, Brother Ruiran is really admirable. Of course, your mother is not an ordinary woman. They are a perfect match made in heaven!"

Zhao Anchen: "..." Sitting beside Ming Xiaoyang, he fell silent.

Luo Zhan asked: "Brother Ming, do you have someone in mind?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Not yet."

Luo Zhan said: "Sigh...You are so handsome, you have been chased by countless beautiful girls since you were young, and your eyes are so tricky. On the contrary, I am very curious about your future wife."

Ming Xiaoyang said: "It's still far away."

Sima Han said: "It's not far, it's only four years, it will be here soon."

Zhao Anchen: "... Countless beautiful girls grew up chasing after them?"

Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated, haha."

Zhao Anchen asked: "Is that still there?" The night was slightly dark, and it was unclear what Zhao Anchen's expression was.

Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said, "Only occasionally."

Luo Zhan said: "Brother Ming, you are too modest."

Sima Han said: "His Royal Highness Prince Ning will come of age next year, and your choice of concubine must be very grand, but it will definitely not be as violent as Xiaoyang."

Ming Xiaoyang was inexplicably unconvinced, and asked: "Why? It's not fair! Zhao Yi is obviously much more handsome than me, and he comes from a noble family, so why is he not popular with me?"

Luo Zhan laughed and said, "Why are there still complaints about this? Haha!"

Sima Han replied: "Because of the supreme family background, ordinary nobles dare not think about it."

Ming Xiaoyang felt aggrieved instead: "How do you say that I am like a rotten egg, able to attract countless flies to follow? When it comes to Zhao Yi, it will become a flower of Gaoling, so I can't be desecrated?"

As soon as these words came out, Luo Yuning laughed and said: "Nephew, how can there be such a rotten egg with gold trim like you? Hahaha..."

Luo Zhan also laughed loudly: "I don't know how those noble ladies would feel when they heard that you compared them to flies, hahahaha...won't they die on the embroidery needle? Hahahaha..."

Zhao Anchen: "..."

Before night fell, the tent was unavoidably hot and stuffy, and the few people sat outside chatting happily until nightfall, when the breeze blew in, and it was time to go to sleep after a day of fatigue.

After all, Zhao Anchen is His Royal Highness King Ning, so he had to set up a separate military tent.Luo Zhan hugged Ming Xiaoyang's neck and said, "Brother Ming will sleep with me tonight."

Before Ming Xiaoyang could speak, Zhao Anchen immediately said, "No way!"

Ming Xiaoyang smiled slightly, and deliberately asked: "Why not?"

Zhao Anchen didn't speak, turned his head and walked into his tent.Luo Zhan looked confused, and asked Ming Xiaoyang: "? Then where do you sleep?"

Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said: "Zhao Yi is timid, I have to sleep with him." After speaking, he got into King Ning's camp.

Sima Han shook his head and said: "I just said that the prince is noble, and he is not suitable for eating and sleeping in the wild. No, the timid needs someone to accompany him."

Luo Yuning smiled and said: "My nephew is highly skilled in martial arts, and he should be the guardian of the prince. He really feels safe."

Luo Zhan thought to himself in a daze: "Huh? Timid?..."

Ming Xiaoyang entered the tent and saw that there was only one big king's bed in the tent, and asked with a smile: "You let me be with you, but there is only one bed, where should I sleep?"

Zhao Anchen said in a cold tone, "You sleep on the floor."

Ming Xiaoyang said aggrievedly: "I don't want it, Brother Chen doesn't love me anymore?"

Ming Xiaoyang saw through the candlelight in the tent that Zhao Anchen's face was as cold as ice, thinking that he might be tired.She smiled and said, "Okay, not to tease you, do you sleep on the inside or the outside?"

Zhao Anchen said: "You sleep on your side."

Ming Xiaoyang pulled a long voice in satisfaction and said: "Okay~~~Listen to Brother Chen!" He took off his outer robe and battle armor, crawled inside to lie down, then stood up on his side, supported his head with one hand, and patted the bed with the other. , smiled and said: "Come here!"

Zhao Anchen looked at Ming Xiaoyang who was only wearing his middle coat but patted the bed and told him to go over, he felt angry, frowned fiercely, and stood motionless on the ground.

Ming Xiaoyang smiled and blinked, then patted the bed, signaling Zhao Anchen to go to bed quickly.

Zhao Anchen said coldly: "Are you very skilled in this movement?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Ah? What?"

Zhao Anchen sighed, took off his outer robe and battle armor, went to sleep on the bed, and lay down on his back.Zhao Anchen was a little bored, couldn't fall asleep with his eyes closed, and asked, "Have you ever slept in the same bed with someone else?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "How is it possible, my son is not poor enough to share a bed with someone else, so I'm doing you a favor, Zhao Yi."

Zhao Anchen finally fell asleep.

After marching for four days in a row, General Luo Yuning led an army of [-] to separate from General Sima Han. The father and son of the Luo family led troops to the Songxia Border Pass, and Sima Han led an army of [-] to the Song and Liao Border Pass.

Ming Xiaoyang and Zhao Anchen first followed Luo Yuning to the Song Xia Border Pass, and after traveling for more than ten days, they finally arrived at the border pass Qingzhou and joined the defenders led by General Zhang Li.

Zhang Li was very happy when he saw Ming Xiaoyang, he dragged Ming Xiaoyang into the house, and said: "Nephew, I can finally see you, you have grown up so much, I drank your full moon wine Afterwards, I was sent to the border to take over from General Feng to guard the border in Qingzhou, how are your parents?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "They are all good. My father often mentioned to me the matter of fighting side by side with you."

Zhang Li smiled and said: "Yes, I feel at ease with him here. Seeing you is just like seeing your father back then, it makes me feel at ease. It's really a tiger father without dog son!"

General Luo Yuning said: "My nephew's martial arts skills are better than his father's. Although he is young and has not yet led the army to fight, he is definitely not bad!"

Zhang Li nodded in satisfaction: "Okay! I have a successor to the famous general of Song Dynasty!"

There is no war at the border, but heavy troops and defenses.

After three days in the barracks, after finishing the defense, Ming smiled and said: "Uncle Luo, my father ordered me to inspect the border situation of the Song Dynasty, so I will leave the army. Uncle Luo, take care!"

Luo Yuning said: "
