Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 304 Starry Night Heart-to-heart Talk
Bai Xiuyuan said: "It should be soon. I heard that they have arrived in Xiangcheng, the nearest city here. They are going to rest for a day and come back after discussing the countermeasures."

She relaxed her brows, smiled, and asked, "Who is the general coming this time?"

"Wu Hong and Tao Liangyu." Bai Xiuyuan said.

Cheng Qing smiled and said: "Isn't it? Is it so bad for our Medicine King Valley? It's over after the two generals come?"

Bai Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "It's not like I'm serious, these two are already pretty good."

Cheng Qing lifted the quilt, got out of bed, stretched his waist, and said: "You don't need to remind me anymore, I know all this, I was just talking about it. Wuyuan didn't send anyone else, but The fact that he was sent by one of our own can already prove everything."

Bai Xiuyuan sighed and said, "Qing'er."

Just as he opened his mouth, Bai Xiuyuan hesitated and stopped.

Cheng Qing looked at him doubtfully and said, "What are you doing to mother-in-law and mother-in-law? If you have something to say, don't be so awkward. I felt uncomfortable when I saw it."

Bai Xiuyuan looked at her helplessly, sighed again, and said: "I just have that worry. Wuyuan seems to have not completely let go of you until now, so I am wondering whether you will meet again one day. ?”

Cheng Qing frowned, looked at him, and said seriously: "Ayuan, I have never liked him, I just regard him as a good brother."

"I know. It is precisely because I know that I am so hesitant." Bai Xiuyuan said.

Cheng Qing knew what he was worried about in his heart. He lowered his eyes and said, "Do you have no confidence in yourself or in me?"

"..." Bai Xiuyuan gritted his teeth and swallowed the word 'I' on the tip of his tongue.

The Bai family has never been rich enough to confront the emperor. If they were to confront each other, it would be difficult for him to win.

But for Cheng Qing, even if he goes against the king of a country, so what?
Besides, Zhao Wuyuan shouldn't have reached that point yet. After all, he should know in his heart who Qing'er likes?
It's useless for him to continue to pester like this.

While he was thinking about things, Cheng Qing grabbed a few snacks to fill her stomach, but these sweets were still not enough for her.

She walked out, called Qiu Yan over, told her to get something delicious, and then turned around and walked in.

"Ayuan, if you have nothing to do, go back first. If that doesn't work, go to the mouth of the valley first and come back when I've finished it."

Cheng Qing said while looking for clothes in the closet.

Bai Xiuyuan was about to say something, but when he saw that she wanted to take a bath, he swallowed all the words, got up and walked outside.

……

In the evening, Cheng Qing and Bai Xiuyuan, who had changed into light skirts, sat side by side on the hillside at the entrance of the valley, looking across the sea of ​​flowers.

Cheng Qing said: "Do they really have to wait until tomorrow for the two of them?"

Bai Xiuyuan smiled and said: "What do you think this is? The person they came to attack is their most respected and beloved master after all. Although it was just a show, to fool those people, it is impossible for them to come. Stay on the other side, right?"

Cheng Qing touched his chin and said, "Actually, I heard a lot of things last night, but there are some words that I cannot say in front of my uncle and the others."

Bai Xiuyuan looked at her and said, "Do you still have something to hide?" Cheng Qing nodded, and said, "Otherwise? If they say it, they can't do anything, it just increases their worries. Besides, look at their words." He doesn’t look like someone who knows how to meddle in royal affairs. If I speak out, they might stop us from meddling in other people’s affairs.”

Bai Xiuyuan frowned and said, "It's related to the royal family, and it's an unusual trouble? Qing'er, what's going on?"

Cheng Qing sighed, propped his chin, and said, "I explored the Devil's Valley last night, and I realized that it was not us that they really wanted to make trouble for, but the imperial city."

"What? Could it be that they haven't given up yet?" Bai Xiuyuan asked.

"Whether they give up or not is one thing, but now there is another problem." Cheng Qing said solemnly.

"What trouble?" Bai Xiuyuan looked at her expression and felt that this trouble must be unusual.

Cheng Qing sighed: "This time, the Yuan Kingdom will start fighting at the border while they attack the palace."

"Then they didn't come here just for you?" Bai Xiuyuan asked.

Cheng Qing shook his head and said: "No, they came here for me. During the day, I wasn't just talking nonsense. It's true that they wanted to do something to me. Because in their hearts and eyes, I was always It’s a stumbling block for them to achieve hegemony.”

Bai Xiuyuan also sighed solemnly: "It seems that this time, the entire Zhao Kingdom will be in big trouble."

Cheng Qing leaned on his shoulder and said: "Fortunately, despite all the trouble, the palace should not have much problem with funds."

Mentioning this matter, Bai Xiuyuan couldn't help laughing and said, "How dare you say it? How much gold and silver did you collect from the royal family when you first became the commander of the Royal Forest Army?"

Cheng Qing also smiled.

Bai Xiuyuan suppressed his smile and continued: "There is no shortage of funds, but there is a shortage of talents. Qing'er, I am right to worry. It will not be long before Wuyuan comes to find you."

Being held in his arms, Cheng Qing became solemn, "If he is really forced to do so, there is indeed a possibility that he will come to me like you said."

In fact, Cheng Qing himself was very unsure about this.

After all, she was a woman, and she had never thought about going to the battlefield in this capacity.

Even when she became the commander of the Royal Forest Army last time, it was completely unexpected. She never thought that as her daughter's family, she would accept any official position in the court.

The late emperor had appointed her before her, so she really couldn't guarantee that Zhao Wuyuan wouldn't find her.

Although Zhao Wuyuan didn't know her status as Grand Marshal, he must have already had many conjectures in his heart.

"Qing'er, if he really begs you, will you go? Or not?" When Bai Xiuyuan asked, he already had the answer in his heart, but he still wanted to hear her say it himself.

Cheng Qing's eyes looking at the sky seemed to be filled with galaxies, and he said in a calm tone: "If he really begged me to come here, it means that it has reached a critical point. The Zhao country is in danger. Do you think I won't come to help?"

"Qing'er, sometimes I just hate that you take your family, country and world too seriously." Bai Xiuyuan sighed.
