Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law.

Chapter 450

The sky is getting brighter.

The candle in a room in the courtyard of Tongque Garden was not extinguished all night long.

Xu Ying lay flat on the bed, her hair disheveled, her white calves and feet slightly tensed, as if she was concentrating her strength. She froze for a long time, and finally straightened out weakly.

She looked at the condescending Chen Mo and the faint smile on his lips, and she felt her eyelids were fighting.

She didn't know how long had passed. She only knew that it was dark when Chen Mo came, but now it was almost dawn, and she hadn't squinted her eyes yet.

"Animals," she said in her heart. Compared with the former emperor, they were nothing like clouds and mud.

"Aren't you tired?" Xu Ying didn't even have the strength to hug Chen Mo.

"Empress, you are just like a piece of honey, so enchanting." Chen Mo didn't feel tired at all, but more energetic.

The first time he was in this state was when Wuguan and Xiao Yunxi were together.

Chen Mo kissed Xu Ying's lips: "Don't you think this is more interesting, Queen?"

After washing up and having breakfast, she was even in the mood to take a walk in Tongque Garden.

"You are really bullying me." Xu Ying really didn't know what to say about Chen Mo.

Just thinking about it made Chu Ran feel ashamed, and the toes hidden in the embroidered shoes couldn't help but clench.

Thinking about Chen Mo spending the night at Xu Ying's place last night.

Only then did she learn that Chen Mo came over last night and went to Xu Ying's yard, and he hasn't left yet.

The charm of a woman is not only about her face, figure and dress, but also about her status.

Seeing that Xu Ying was really exhausted, Chen Mo stopped putting pressure on her, lay aside and hugged her and said, "It would be great if the Queen could wear a phoenix crown and harem."

After Xiao Yunxi solved it, Chu Ran finally had a good sleep last night and slept until dawn.

I will also spend the night with him in the future.

You know, Xu Ying is not only the former queen, but also her sister-in-law.

……

Chen Mo said nothing and fell asleep holding Xu Ying in his arms.

"You are too bold and arrogant." After saying that, Xu Ying laughed at herself: "Yes, the imperial power has long since declined. Forget about the emperor becoming a puppet and being forced to abdicate. Lu Sheng is a much more powerful bully than you. If the emperor really has the protection of heaven, , when the thunder punishment is issued, he will be struck first.”

in the afternoon.

But soon, her face turned red.

She also hugged Chen Mo with both hands, because it was really comfortable to sleep like this.

This made Chu Ran stunned, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.

……

So wouldn't it be...

Chen Mo didn't come to see her last night. Apparently, what her aunt told her was not told to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo woke up faintly on the bed.

After all, he was a top-grade warrior, and he was also young. After a deep sleep, he woke up refreshed and full of energy in the afternoon.

Xu Ying was still sleeping. She was definitely not as healthy as Chen Mo. She went to bed at dawn. She was so tired after being bullied for so long that she had to get enough sleep to recover.

Chen Mo sat up. He originally wanted to get out of bed and leave after the stress of staying in bed passed, but after looking at Xu Ying, he was ready to make a move.

It's late May now, and the weather is getting hotter.

Today is a sunny day again.

It's a little hot inside the house.

The quilt covering Xu Ying's body had long since fallen under the bed. Now she was lying on her side with her back to Chen Mo. The graceful curves of her body and her perky buttocks were all tempting.

Without a trace of hesitation, Chen Mo stuck to it.

When the sky darkened, Chen Mocai left Tongque Garden.

……

Early June.

A piece of news spreads all over the world.

Jin Xia invaded and captured Youzhou, and has now invaded Beidi. The first one to learn the news was Chen Mo.

Chen Mo was having breakfast with his family when the maid came over in a hurry and said that Sun Meng had something urgent to ask him.

In the study.

"What happened?"

Chen Mo asked straight to the point.

Sun Meng handed over an urgent report: "This is an urgent report sent back by the spies you sent to Youzhou some time ago, Lord Marquis. Please take a look."

Hurry!
Generally speaking, these two words are not a trivial matter.

After receiving the emergency report, Chen Mo read it carefully.

At first glance, it turned out to be exactly what he had guessed before.

If Jin Xia really wanted to attack the Song Dynasty, it would be the fastest to invade Youzhou from the north.

Sure enough, Jin Xia really called in.

And they captured Youzhou effortlessly.

Now they have entered the Northland and threatened Gaozhou.

If Jinxia wins Gaozhou again, the next step will be Qingzhou.

And Qingzhou is Chen Mo's territory, and it can be said that war is about to begin.

And based on the contents of the urgent report, the spies estimated that this Jinxia army had about 100,000 troops.

After dispatching so many people and attacking Gaozhou, it was obvious that they were not simply coming to the Song Dynasty to plunder.

Combined with the previous news from Longyou, Jin Xia invaded Dongyou Country.

The two-front attack was aimed at annexing the entire Song Dynasty.

After thinking for a short time, Chen Mo immediately took action.

"Sun Meng."

"My subordinate is here."

"I am sending an order to all the generals in Xiangyang City to come to the Marquis Mansion to discuss matters. In addition, send someone to Jiangdong to invite the head of the Wu family." Gaozhou does not have an organized army at all. In other words, Jinxia The army will be able to attack Qingzhou in less than a month. Chen Mo wants to send troops to Qingzhou to defend it immediately and cannot wait.

"promise."

Sun Meng was about to go down to deliver the message, but Chen Mo stopped him again.

"Wait a minute." Chen Mo rubbed his eyebrows with his fingers and said, "Foreign enemy invasion is not just a matter for my family. Immediately report to the court and ask the court to send troops for reinforcements. In addition, notify allies in Xiliang and Shu to let them They help.”

Hearing this, Sun Meng was stunned, because even he didn't think that the court and his allies would help, so why did the Marquis bother to do this? However, he did not dare to question, and after making his promise, he retreated obediently.

……

Toyosu.

Shan County.

Prince Huai's Mansion.

After learning that Yuezhi and King Chong could not help him, King Huai fell ill and fell down. However, the doctors could not find a cure for this disease because it was the heart disease of King Huai. .

The fall of King Huai also made people in Fengzhou panic.

It also made the competition among the Li, Xiao, and Gan families for the position of the crown prince intensify. Originally, the competition was only in secret, but now it is directly on the surface.

This kind of competition also caused those who used to follow King Huai to leave one by one.

The people who are still following King Huai, except for the three families of Li, Xiao, and Gan who are deeply involved, the rest are completely loyal to King Huai.

In a room in the backyard.

Mrs. Hui is taking care of King Huai.

In order to be the crown prince, the three ladies would go to King Huai every day to make their presence felt.

But this behavior of the three ladies will only make King Huai's "illness" worse.

At this moment, a staff member rushed in anxiously: "Your Majesty, something is not right, something happened, something big happened."
