On the wedding night, the prince asked me to see an andrologist

Chapter 495 You go down first
A group of guards wearing the same guard uniforms rode horses on both sides of the carriage, surrounded by seven or eight carriages filled with officials of all sizes.

Because the fourth prince had already made arrangements in advance, Ning Muqing and Chu Lixuan quietly blended into the group.

Ning Muqing's horse skills are pretty good, and she feels quite comfortable riding on the horse.

The journey was very boring. The fourth prince and the accompanying officials hardly showed their faces while sitting in the carriage. Except when they went out to eat, they would only huddle in the carriage the rest of the time.

They were afraid that when they got out of the carriage, they would encounter an assassin and shoot them to death with a sword.

Fortunately, the journey was uneventful.

Because we were taking the official road, there were many businessmen and people along the road, so gangsters would not choose to attack here.

In the blink of an eye, the carriage has already traveled two days.

Just two hours into the day, the carriage in the forefront suddenly stopped at a ferry. Ning Muqing looked at the large ship standing in front of her in a daze.

She dragged Chu Lixuan to a deserted place and asked, "Are you planning to take the waterway?"

"Ah."

Chu Lixuan nodded calmly.

Ning Muqing thought for a moment, took out the map of the Great Zhou Dynasty prepared in his arms, and said, "It is very troublesome to change boats at the ferry and go upstream. Moreover, you cannot reach the border directly. After arriving in the town, We have to change carriages again. How do we transport our horses? Why do we need to make such a troublesome plan? "

"This king."

Chu Lixuan said in a deep voice.

Ning Muqing looked at the route on the map, thought for a moment and quickly said, "The speed at which horses can travel is limited. The speed of ships is relatively controllable and can be accelerated. So what you want to do is to seize time?"

"You reacted quite quickly on this matter." Chu Lixuan raised his eyebrows.

"Isn't this something that everyone with a brain knows?" Ning Muqing said speechlessly, "We have to go up and down the mountain by carriage on this section of the road. It requires a lot of manpower and material resources in the middle. Maybe we will encounter The bandits wereted time by going up the mountain.”

Ning Muqing pointed at the continuous mountains on the map. The arched mountains extended the journey, but boating was different. It was a straight line.

You can also pass through many towns in the middle and stop for repairs at the ferry.

"Although we need to go upstream by water, if we travel day and night, we can cover more than half a month's distance in five days. However, although the boat is very fast, we still have to go into the mountains after getting off the boat. It is definitely necessary Horses, what are you going to do with these?"

Looking at the map and recalling the geography knowledge he had learned in his previous life, Ning Muqing immediately understood what Chu Lixuan wanted to do.

And Ning Muqing is very confused, "This time when we go to the border, the fighting is not particularly tight, and the army is definitely not marching very fast. What do you want to do in such a hurry when you have to move forward alone?"

"The document officially declaring war between Dazhou and Chen will be issued in a month." Chu Lixuan said.

Ning Muqing was stunned for a moment and soon understood what was going on.

"Chen Guochang would harass the Zhou border from time to time every year. Zhou would send envoys to check, but they would not start a fight with Chen Guozhen. This time, the emperor's brother asked the fourth prince to go to the border to appease Chen. signal of."

Chu Lixuan pointed to the location of the border pass and said thoughtfully, "The embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by ant nests, and Chen Guo had to get rid of it."

Caught off guard.

Ning Muqing narrowed her eyes slightly. She likes a country that fights whenever it wants and doesn't flinch at all when it's time to stand up.

Ning Muqing continued, "In addition, there is a lot of fuss about Zhou State's change of queen. People in Chen State will definitely feel that Zhou State is now afraid of trouble and will not accept the challenge. They will think about how to annex Zhou State's land and want to To destroy it, you must first make it crazy.”

At the critical moment.

The emperor suddenly sent a famous dandy fourth prince, and Chen Guoguo relaxed his vigilance even more. When Chu Lixuan heard what Ning Muqing said, he felt relaxed and suddenly enlightened.

When a strong person makes a plan, a weak person cannot understand, follow his thinking, or understand what he wants to do.

But with Ning Muqing, he didn't need to waste any words.

Ning Muqing was even able to tell some small details that perhaps even Chu Lixuan had not thought of.

This sense of tacit understanding without the need for words made Chu Lixuan feel like he had met a close friend for the first time in his life.

"You're right, what else?" Chu Lixuan's thin lips curled up slightly. superior
"But one thing I'm a little worried about is the comfort of the Fourth Prince." Ning Muqing said calmly, "Although His Majesty asked the Fourth Prince to lead the team this time, he is still His Majesty's biological son after all. I leave this job to you. I guess His Majesty's I want you to ensure that all the four princes return home."

The fourth prince must be well aware of this, otherwise he would not have come to Chu Lixuan as soon as he received His Majesty's order. In fact, he just wanted to hug Chu Lixuan's thigh.

Chu Lixuan said calmly, "Your Majesty has never thought of asking the fourth prince to go back sideways."

"Of course, no matter how close we are to each other, the fourth prince is still young and has no ability to protect himself. If he encounters special circumstances, he may not be able to save his life.

So when you want to complete any task, you should also consider the safety of the fourth prince. If the fourth prince's fate is not good, and he encounters an unlucky person who wants to fight to the death, his life may not be saved. This is definitely not what your Majesty wants. have witnessed. "

Ning Muqing answered.

Chu Lixuan looked at Ning Muqing with a half-smile, "If it were you, how would you protect him?"

"If you want to protect a person, there are two ways. One is to hide him in a place where no one can find him, and the other is to keep him close to you for personal protection." Ning Muqing looked at Chu Lixuan and said , "Now it depends on how you want to protect him."

Chu Lixuan raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Ning Muqing followed him onto the boat.

The boats are very big, and the ferry is also very big. Boats of various sizes come and go at the ferry constantly, and there are a lot of people, making it very busy.

This is the largest ferry near the capital. Ships that want to enter or leave the capital will stop here. There are also cargo ships unloading and guards from the bodyguard bureau moving around.

The fourth prince led a small group of people, and they looked very inconspicuous in such a large ferry.

In order to travel in a low-key manner, they did not take the official ship.

Soon, the whole group got on the boat.

As soon as the fourth prince entered the cabin, he sat down on the stool and sighed, "Oh, I finally have a place to rest. It's pitiful that I have to do such hard work at such a young age."

"Your Highness has been busy traveling and traveling these past few days. It's really hard! We will take a boat for the next period of time. Your Highness can enjoy the scenery of the town along the way. The food, clothing and clothing you need these days have been arranged in advance.

If His Highness feels that the boat ride is really boring, you can also order the boat to stop at the ferry to rest, or go fishing, or enjoy the breeze on the deck, etc. In short, just say whatever your Highness has to say. "

The fourth prince collapsed on the chair and waved his hands.

"I don't have the energy to think so much right now. Let's sit down and rest for a while. You go down first."

"Yes."

The accompanying officials respectfully agreed, winking at the guards at the door and letting them go down.

Ning Muqing and Chu Lixuan, "...??"
