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

Chapter 472 Mrs. Xiao: Mr. Hou, I can no longer be sorry to him.

"what"

Hearing this, Mrs. Gan looked extremely ugly.

Today, her husband neglects her and is suspicious of her. Her only hope is that her son can become the heir and inherit the Huai Palace in the future.

But if Fengzhou is gone, will it inherit the atmosphere?

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the house.

The maid who was eavesdropping had already left. Another person came over and said, "Madam, it's not good. The prince vomited blood and fainted. Please go and have a look."

the other side.

In Mrs. Xiao's room.

Mrs. Xiao is taking a nap.

She secretly spat in her heart, and when she heard the knock on the door again, she quickly sorted it out and said, "Who is it?"

"No, I want to go find the prince."

If Mrs. Gan were here, she would definitely find that this person was her maid.

As she finished speaking, the stiff white ankles relaxed completely. This was when she discovered that the color of the palace skirt underneath her was a bit darker, which made her face turn redder and she spat in her heart.

"Xiao Cui?" Mrs. Xiao thought of something for a moment. She got out of bed and put down the curtain, came to the long desk and sat down, and then said: "Come in."

"General Gan is back, and he just came into the mansion to see Mrs. Gan and told her." The maid Xiaocui told Mrs. Xiao exactly what she overheard.

Mrs. Xiao, who had dreamed of the end, was about to wake up. When she heard the knock on the door, she woke up instantly and sat up suddenly.

It turned out that in order to compete for the position of the crown prince, although Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Gan joined forces, Mrs. Xiao also took the opportunity to bribe the maids around Mrs. Gan to provide herself with information.

She was lying on her side on the soft couch, wearing a light palace dress. It was summer, and there was no quilt covering her body. She had a plump figure, and the large piece of snow-skinned skin under her beautiful neck suddenly appeared, and a moonlight was raised under the bed. The shadow of the wheel.

Hearing this, Mrs. Xiao's eyes suddenly darkened. If she hadn't supported the long case in front of her in time, she might have fainted and fallen to the ground.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

Beiqi instinctively bit her pink lips and made an indistinct whimpering sound. A pair of tender white ankles that were close together were stepping on the sheets embroidered with orchids. Suddenly they stiffened a little, and the toes painted with bright red waist hooked. stand up.

"Madam, yes. I am a slave."

"Dong dong."

Xiao Yi was her second uncle and the strongest warrior of the Xiao family. He was someone she relied on. However, he was ambushed by the enemy in Yi County and his life or death was uncertain.

Mrs. Xiao didn't know whether she was dreaming or something. She was originally calm, but her face suddenly turned red, her beautiful eyebrows suddenly jumped, and her hands clenched the sheets tightly.

Soon, a sneaky figure walked into Mrs. Xiao's room.

"Tell me, what news have you heard?" Mrs. Xiao waved her hand.

Mrs. Xiao's face turned pale.

"what?!"

Soon, Mrs. Xiao opened her mouth slightly and said instinctively: "No, Mr. Marquis, I don't want it. I can't let him go any further."

Mrs. Xiao stood up and staggered towards the outside of the house.

As a result, they learned that King Huai's blood attacked his heart and he vomited blood and fainted.

She had no choice but to leave the house to find her second aunt and ask her if there was anything she could do.

But after the second aunt heard the news, she burst into tears and asked her for help, saying that she wanted to see the person alive and see the corpse when she died.

Mrs. Xiao had no choice but to think of contacting Chen Mo. Regardless of whether the eldest brother is alive or dead, maybe he will let the second uncle be released or return the second uncle's body out of a little joy.

Mrs. Hui was the last person in the family to know about Yixian County.

When she learned that her uncle and uncle had defected to the enemy, Mrs. Hui was stunned and her heart sank to the bottom of her heart.

You know, uncle Li Mingfan is not only the strongest warrior of the Li family, but also the person in power of the Li family. Now that he has surrendered to the enemy, will the prince still trust the Li family?

As a result, Shou'er's position as the heir apparent became even more hopeless.

At this moment, Mrs. Hui felt like her soul was about to be lost.

Even during her time in Wuguan, she had never been so desperate.

At the same time, the Li family.

The entire Li family also heard about Li Mingfan and Li Mingzhong's defection to the enemy, and everyone panicked.

They were afraid that King Huai would involve them in this matter.

So they all found Mrs. Hui's father Li Ye and asked him what to do next.

After a final discussion, for the sake of safety, it was decided to send some young people out of Fengzhou to preserve the fire for the Li family. Li Ye also went to see Mrs. Hui as soon as possible.

After all, it is very common for people to surrender to the enemy and even kill nine tribes.

How could the Li family not make preparations first?

One of the solutions discussed by the Li family was that if King Huai really wanted to implicate the entire Li family because of Li Mingfan and Li Mingzhong, then the Li family would simply surrender to Chen Mo.

Anyway, Mrs. Hui's daughter Chu Juan is already Chen Mo's concubine. Considering this relationship, the Li family may not be unable to take root and develop in Chen Mo's territory.

……

Chen Mo, who was far away in Gaozhou, didn't know what happened in Yi County.

After experiencing the Yaoer City incident, Jin Xia's East Route Army was completely frightened by Chen Jun. Under Chen Jun's step-by-step advancement, they actually withdrew from Gaozhou.

The first year of Yong'an, early September.

Chen Mo regained Gaozhou.

On a mountain field.

Chen Mo picked up the horsewhip that the Jin Xia army had left on the ground after escaping, and looked at the horse hoof prints on the ground. He looked into the distance and said quietly: "It's not okay to go on like this. Even if we can regain the entire north, these beasts will still be killed." Escaped."

"But with our marching speed, we simply can't catch up with their cavalry." Xia Zhining said rather distressedly as she didn't know this.

"It seems we have to slow down our march." After Chen Mo considered it for a while, he waved behind him.

Sun Meng, who was following behind, immediately took the map and spread it out in front of Chen Mo.

"Judging from the retreat speed of the Jinxia army, they don't want to leave so easily. Otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to see them. Obviously they still want to go south, but they haven't found a way to deal with us. They can only Retreat first.”

As he spoke, Chen Mo drew a route on the map with his finger and said: "So I decided to divide the army. I will personally lead a light cavalry and march from here. I will drive day and night to reach the enemy's rear.

And by slowing down your marching speed, you will buy us time to retreat, because the enemy will not retreat too fast when they see that we are not chasing too closely. "

"Would this be a bit risky?" Xia Zhining asked worriedly.

Although the Cavalry Guard has now captured a war horse, there is no time to train it. Even if the equipment is removed, with one person and two horses, they can only make up about 5,000 light cavalry at most.

At this point, it was too risky for the troops to copy the enemy.

"We will bring clay bombs. Their morale is low. If they are surprised, they may not be unable to win. This risk can be borne." Chen Mo said.
