Chapter 174
Wei Ruqing?That was General Long Xiaowei more than ten years ago, now he is 50 to [-] years old, the prince has long refused to let him lead the army, why did the princess suddenly mention him?
Don't you want to let go of your military power?Now that the prince is not here, she is not in charge of going to the capital.

Thinking about it this way, Linghu Kong was flustered, his tall figure flickered, and he quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, what the general said is from the bottom of his heart, I'm afraid that if something goes wrong with the defense of the capital, if the princess gets angry because of it... ..."

"Get up," Zhao Shuang glanced at him, frowned and said, "I didn't say anything about you, but I just asked about the old department more than ten years ago."

"The general is loyal to the concubine, even if you ask the general to kill people and steal money!" Linghukong expressed his loyalty again.

How can you remember the old department?Don't you feel that you are not as good as that old man Wei Ruqing?
"Get up, I don't want you to kill and steal money. If you want to go out of the city, you will naturally break the siege of the capital." Zhao Shuang glanced at the two confidants of Yang Xuan again, obviously not very satisfied, "Hu Xiao Wei and Long Xiaowei, I want to take one away, you can discuss with Mao Hu, who will go with me?"

Linghukong got up slowly and sat down, and glanced at Maohu again, the latter was holding the cat in one hand and pulling his hair with the other, he seemed very troubled and didn't know what he was thinking.

Linghukong winked at Maohu, wanting him to say something, but the latter pretended not to see it, and just changed his position to hug the cat.

Coward!Usually he seems to be quite capable of bluffing, but today he wants to say a word in front of the princess, but he dare not say a word like a fart.

Linghukong glared at him angrily, but in desperation, he could only continue to say, "Princess, if the siege of Shangjing is so easy to solve, the last general and General Mao would have long ago..."

"Ahem!" Mao Hu suddenly coughed twice, as if reminding him to "don't get involved with me".

Linghu Kong was helpless, thinking that this guy didn't need to be so cautious, he paused and continued, "If the Yaoren Corps and the Beiliang National Iron Cavalry were soft persimmons, they would have taken Long Xiaowei out of the city long ago. Kill them all!"

Zhao Shuang glanced at Mao Hu again, and asked, "After all, which one of you would like to go out of the city with me to meet the enemy?"

The room was silent for a moment, no one spoke.

Zhao Shuang's hand holding the tea cover gradually slowed down, and threw the tea cover on the table with a "bang", and just about to speak, Mao Hu suddenly stood up.

"The last general is willing to follow the princess!"

"Mao Hu! You forgot what the lord said..." Linghu Kong also stood up abruptly, pulling Mao Hu's arm holding the cat vigorously.

"My lord?" Zhao Shuang narrowed his eyes and glanced at the tall man in white robe, "Linghu Kong! Do you know something?"

"The last general... nothing..." Linghukong was about to say that he didn't know, when he heard the bearded man cough again.

"cough!"

"Mao Hu, what do you mean?" Linghu Kong was really angry this time.

"When is it? Just tell the truth!" Mao Hu put down the cat in his hand, and cupped his hands to the woman seated above, "To my lord, my lord... He did send a letter to the last general and Linghu Kong!"

The atmosphere in the room changed suddenly, and the tabby cat quickly shrank into a corner.

"Oh?" Zhao Shuang's eyes lit up, looking at Mao Hu and asked, "What did he say?"

Mao Hu hesitated again.

"The lord said that he encountered a medicine army in the northern border and suffered heavy losses." Now that Mao Hu had already recruited, Linghukong simply took over the conversation, "The lord also said that he lost a treasure..."

"What he said... should be the sound transmission mirror for thousands of miles." Zhao Shuang looked at the bronze mirror on the table, frowning deeply, "Then why didn't he come back, and didn't send me a message?"

If the prince lost the thousand-mile sound-transmitting mirror, whose voice is the voice in the bronze mirror these days?
"The prince said that he still has some things to do in the north. As for why he didn't send a letter to you, the princess... I don't know." Mao Hu said, looking up at her.

The princess is indeed different from the last time I saw her in the Habayashi Guard barracks. At that time, she was still a woman who relied on the prince for everything. Tonight, her posture of beating herself and Linghu Kong seemed like a woman with long wings. It is like a falcon, ready to take off and soar at any time.

It was this confident and magnificent aura in her that made Mao Hu decide to take a gamble and accompany the princess out of the city to meet the enemy.

"Princess, my lord, ever since he heard that you left the west of Yunnan and wanted to come to Shangjing, he ordered the general to wait for you in Shangjing, and be sure...to keep you in Shangjing," Linghukong said respectfully, cupping his fists, "He said that he will take care of the matter in the north. Let us wait in peace in the city."

"Wait, wait, Hu Xiaowei and Long Xiaowei are going to mutiny, and how many people in the capital will starve to death," Zhao Shuang said, pointing at the two generals in front of him, "Look at yourselves , how skinny is it? And this cat, skinny!"

The "Mao Hu" who was curled up in the corner immediately "meowed" aggrievedly, expressing that he was really hungry.

"Mao Hu! The prince has ordered us to keep the princess, why... are you still messing around with the princess?" Linghu turned around and scolded Mao Hu.

"I'm helping the manager, not the relative," the bearded general stroked his beard, and bowed to the seat above, "The princess is right. Whoever can break the siege of Shangjing, I will follow!"

"Okay!" Zhao Shuang admired Mao Hu's way of abandoning the dark and turning to the bright, then looked at Linghu Kong and said, "Linghu Kong, Yang Xuan was only an eleven or twelve-year-old boy when I was fighting in all directions. When you were a baby, you naturally didn't know how powerful I am! Bengong advises you to abandon the darkness and turn to the light."

Although Linghu Kong was dissatisfied in his heart, he responded, "What the princess said is that the final general will only follow the princess!"

Not ashamed!If you were powerful, you wouldn't have dragged me to be your killer!
But right now the prince is not here, and Mao Hu has defected again, so he can only listen to her first, and sue Mao Hu when the prince comes back.

Seeing that the two obeyed, Zhao Shuang gave some instructions to Mao Hu, then took Xiang Xia away from Huxiaowei and returned to the palace.

The carriage drove to the outside of Fanshuang Hall, it was just dawn.

Seeing the dim lights in Fanshuang Hall from a distance, several servants rushed out to greet him.

"Princess! You're back!" Nanny Chang led the little maids to kneel in a row.

"Excuse me. Nanny Chang, how is the house?" Zhao Shuang helped Xiangxia get out of the carriage.

"Okay, okay." Nanny Chang got up, wiped her tears and looked into the carriage again, "Where's the little prince?"

"Stay in the Zhenxi General's Mansion." Zhao Shuang helped Nanny Chang into the main hall, and was relieved to see that everything in the hall was as usual except that the lights were not lit.

"It's the old slave who is confused. How can he bring the young prince back with the current state of the capital?" Nanny Chang cried and laughed, and ordered the little maids to prepare some snacks and tea. something."

Zhao Shuang sat on the familiar soft couch, and glanced at the snacks on the table. There were only one or two plain steamed buns and steamed cakes, which were much more shabby than the food in Fanshuang Palace.
