Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 237 Picking up the leaks
This is human nature, and the Wu couple and Wu Yetong have made their respective attitudes clear from the beginning.

"Mother, you know how to tease your daughter, and Lan'er won't listen."

Wu Xinlan shook her mother Lu's arm and put her head in her mother's arms.

Mrs. Wu caressed her little girl's fair cheeks lovingly, thinking about which of the young men from Kyoto she had been paying attention to recently would be the best match for her daughter.

Wu Xinlan raised her face and said shyly to Mrs. Wu: "Mother, I heard that the Duke's wife is looking after the wife of her youngest son, Tang Wenzhu."

Tang Wenzhu is like a tall green bamboo among the disciples of high-ranking families. Not only does he have a top-notch family background, but he is also well-rounded in both civil and military affairs. Not to mention that he also has a handsome appearance that resembles that of Pan An.

Not only the ladies from various families were watching, but even Princess Lingjiao, the daughter of Concubine Wu, was also paying attention to his movements.

Mrs. Wu looked at the pink peach blossoms on her daughter's face and couldn't help but sigh.

"Lan'er, the Fourth Young Master of Tang's family is too high up. I'm afraid our family won't be able to reach it. Besides, Princess Lingjiao in the palace is still eyeing her. How can you beat Princess Lingjiao?"

Wu Xinlan bit her lower lip tightly, her face pale, "But. But the Duke's Palace will definitely not agree with Princess Tang's Fourth Shaoshang."

Mrs. Wu hugged her young daughter distressedly and said, "Lan'er, can our family compare with the Rongguo Duke's mansion? Your father is only a third-grade official in charge of horses, how can he be compared with a powerful minister?"

Wu Xinlan's face was completely drained of blood, but she just couldn't say the words to give up.
……

Tang Bingyu and her mother Xiao Shao returned to the third room of the Duke's Mansion and began to talk about Wu Yetong.

"Mother, this Wu Yetong doesn't seem to have any recklessness. Compared with other official ladies, she just has a bigger frame."

Naturally, Mr. Tang Sanye would not tell the young Shaw Brothers Wu Jiang's true identity. He only said that his life had been saved by Wu Jiang in his early years and he was very grateful to Wu Jiang.

Xiao Shao talked a lot today and was not in much mood to discuss it with his daughter, "Yeah."

Tang Bingyu valued his only younger brother very much, and his wife naturally wanted her as her sister to keep an eye on him.

"Then Wu Yetong seems to have an unpleasant temperament and is too dull. I'm afraid my fifth brother won't like him."

Their family background is not picky, and their appearance is acceptable, but their dull temperament really makes people unhappy.

Xiao Shao drank a cup of tea leisurely and then took over what his daughter was saying.

"She is just an orphan from the side who came to the Wu Mansion. It is not a good thing to be too aggressive and steal the spotlight from the host's lady;

Besides, have you noticed that Wu Xinlan has a very good relationship with her, and she didn't mean to show off in front of us. It shows that Wu Yetong has her own merits. "

From this point of view, the girl Wu Yetong is a smart person with a rift in her heart.

"Mother means that Wu Yetong is suitable?"

What's appropriate? A suitable wife for Tang Wenhong?
Xiao Shao smiled and nodded his daughter's nose, "It's just a meeting, just some first impressions."

However, after meeting Wu Yetong, Xiao Shao did not oppose Tang Sanye's arrangements as firmly as before. So, the loving couple who had been living apart for a few days in the Rongguo Duke's mansion began to live happily ever after.

Rong's food and grass were destroyed, but Di's help was repeatedly denied. Unable to support the melee of the three kingdoms, Rong's officers and soldiers voluntarily returned to their own country.

Now the border battlefield has turned into a battle between the Ling Kingdom and the Di Kingdom.

The Di State became uneasy after the Rong State withdrew its troops, but His Majesty the Imperial City did not issue an order to withdraw the troops, so they would fight to the death with the Ling State sergeants.

The Rong Kingdom withdrew its troops to its own city. The two countries no longer confronted each other. The atmosphere in the country was depressed. The return trip of Jiang Shunian and the six people went smoothly. They did not return the same way, but passed through the Di camp.

The burning of Rong's grain and grass has always been a mystery. People who believe in ghosts and gods have angered the gods because they sent troops at the wrong time.

Atheists, on the other hand, are puzzled by how Ling Guo managed to burn the food and grass without seeing a single enemy.

The State of Di learned from the lessons of the State of Rong and no longer deliberately hid food and grass, but instead divided into five groups of men and horses to closely guard it every day.

When Jiang Shunian and the six of them arrived on the grassland, they felt like fish swimming in the water. Along the way, they found lake water when they were thirsty and prey when they were hungry. They were very happy.

The Rong Kingdom and the Di Kingdom have distinct territories, but a desert country and a grassland country are both vast and sparsely populated races.

There were basically no human activities on the border between the two countries, which made it convenient for the six of them to cross from the Rong Kingdom to the Di Kingdom.

Jiang Shunian and the others did not come here to burn the food and grass of Di State again, but because the Jiedu Pills could not support them through the Mysterious Forest again.

It was already half a month after they left the Lingguo military camp. They didn't know that the Lingguo camp was already anxious because there was no news about them.

The spies of Ling State could only find out that they successfully burned the grain and grass of Rong State and caused Rong State to withdraw its troops. The rest was basically unknown.

To be precise, it was the Lord Sheng and Jiang Shunian's father-in-law and brother-in-law who were anxious. The other generals were more amazed that they had completed the mission, and they were not concerned about whether they could return.

If you come back, it will be a great achievement, and you will definitely be promoted to a higher position, and even gradually replace their position, but if you don't come back, what you get is more vanity than they can get.

Jiang Shunian and the other six people originally just wanted to visit Di Kingdom, but they didn't expect that there would be unexpected surprises waiting for them.

The physical appearance of the six people was obviously different from that of the locals. They tried their best to avoid the crowds while traveling, but they did not expect that the sound of horse hooves could be heard not far away.

Jiang Shunian and the others quickly found cover and saw a luxurious carriage approaching.

The coachman looked like he was an expert at first glance, and the curtains fluttering in the wind showed that there was only a young boy in the carriage, about eleven or twelve years old.

The driver drove the carriage and announced the itinerary loudly to the young man in the carriage, "Your Highness, we will reach the border in more than ten miles ahead."

His Royal Highness Prince?

Jiang Shunian and the six of them looked at each other and immediately made the decision to kidnap the prince in the carriage.

Two people stood guard, two people dealt with the coachman, and Jiang Shunian and another secret guard dealt with the prince.

The driver was good at martial arts, but he was quickly defeated against two masters alone.

Seeing the little prince being captured by Jiang Shunian and the others, he consciously put down his weapons and surrendered.

"Are you from the Ling Kingdom? As long as you let my master and servant leave, I will let my father reward you heavily."

The little prince didn't know that the more he said this, the more Jiang Shunian and the other six felt that they had done a good job in kidnapping him.

The little prince only thought that Jiang Shunian was frightened by his identity and did not dare to hurt him in the slightest, but he did not know that he was being tricked unknowingly.

Who would have thought that the most beloved little prince of the Di Kingdom would secretly come to the border military camp and be taken advantage of by Jiang Shunian and the others.

The six of them, together with the seven little princes of the Kingdom of Di, squeezed into the carriage. Seeing that their prince was in the hands of the other party, the coachman and guard had to submit and continue driving.

The six of them have really been able to eat and sleep as they please in the past half month. They have to rely on their feet to travel, and it's not bad to be able to ride in a crowded carriage.
