Happy pastoral concubine

Chapter 720 Will it be the same as before?

Even if Qiu Pingchuan sincerely surrendered, Xiao Baorui was still worried about keeping Tang Huanxi, mother and son.

"Xiao Baorui, I can't leave with you for the time being." Tang Huanxi turned around, looked at his handsome face, and slightly raised the corners of her lips, "Since I have decided to fight side by side with you, then I can't just hide behind you. Xiao Baorui, although the Xinzhou Gang has already occupied Chaozhou, the other five nearby cities are not easy to attack."

If it was not necessary, Tang Huanxi hoped that other cities would surrender without a fight. After all, once the war continued, the innocent people would be the first to be hurt.

The reason why they want to overthrow Murong He's rule is to help the people live a peaceful, prosperous and happy life.

So we can no longer hurt those innocent people from the beginning.

"Well, we have secretly investigated the governors of several other states before, and decided to use a beauty trick on the governor of Ganzhou."

"In short, be careful in everything."

"Ah."

Tang Huanxi looked at the image in Xiao Baorui's eyes and smiled gently.

"Actually, I really want to ask you a question."

"What does the lady want to ask? For Husband Ding, you should know everything and say everything."

"Xiao Baorui, right now you only have my shadow in your eyes. If you sit on that dragon chair in the future, will it still be the same as before?"

Since ancient times, emperors have been ruthless, and Sangong and Liuyuan are even more normal.

Tang Huanxi admits that she is a selfish and jealous person, and she hopes that her husband will only have her in his eyes and in his heart for the rest of his life.

Xiao Baorui heard the slight melancholy in her emotions, stretched out his hand and embraced her in his arms, his tone was full of tender pampering, "Lady, I only have you alone in my life, if you break this oath, you will be punished." If there is a thunderbolt from the sky, you will die!"

"Shh, don't talk nonsense." Tang Huanxi glared at him angrily, "Xiao Baorui, I believe in you, if you betray me in the future, I will turn around and leave, and I will never look at you again."

"Silly lady, I won't."

"Ah."

Holding the person in his arms, Xiao Baorui couldn't sleep for a long time.

Confused and infatuated, finally aroused the beauty of the whole room.

The next morning, when Tang Huanxi woke up, the bed beside her was already icy cold.

There was a faint sense of loss in my heart, until a familiar sound of footsteps came from far and near.

"Miss, are you awake?"

It's been a long time since we saw each other, and I was a little tired from being tossed last night.

Especially in the middle of the night, Tang Huanxi was vaguely aware that someone had carried her into the bathtub. The feeling of being soaked in hot water was so comfortable that she fell asleep afterwards.

"Xiao Baorui!" Tang Huanxi glared at him viciously, with strong dissatisfaction in his tone of gritted teeth.

This man is simply lawless!
What Tang Huanxi didn't know was that in Xiao Baorui's eyes, her expression had a special charm.

"My lady, the hot water is coming, why don't you get up and take a shower? Sister-in-law cooked your favorite wontons this morning."

"……it is good."

The moment Tang Huanxi lifted off the thin quilt and was about to get out of bed, she felt her feet go soft, and her whole body was limp...

If it wasn't for Xiao Baorui's sharp eyesight and quick hands to support her, I'm afraid she would be embarrassed.

"My lady?" Xiao Baorui asked distressedly, "Does it still hurt?"

Tang Huanxi glanced at him angrily, took a deep breath, and went to wash up.

During breakfast, Qian looked at Tang Huanxi's expression and couldn't help but smile, "Baorui is back, and it's time for you to give Yijin a younger brother and sister. It's more lively with a few more children at home."

Tang Huanxi couldn't help but blushed when she heard this, but looking at Xiao Baorui, she smiled stupidly.

"Huanxi, I'll go to Zhenmeili to have a look later by myself, and you can stay at home and have a good rest."

"Ah."

After the group had finished their breakfast, Xiao Baorui went to the study to read the military books. Tang Huanxi handed Yijin over to Hong Rong and Nanny Gui, and went to the study by herself.

"Xiao Baorui, do you have the defense map of the five states?" Tang Huanxi suddenly remembered something very important, and asked with a frown.

Now that it has been decided to take back the five state cities as soon as possible, it is necessary to have a deep understanding of the customs and defense situation of the nearby state cities.

"Uncle Qin showed me the defense map of the nearby state city earlier." Xiao Baorui immediately put down the military book in his hand, pondered for a moment, then picked up a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and tried his best to remember.

About half an hour later, Xiao Baorui drew the defense map in his mind exactly.

"Miss, do you see?"

Tang Huanxi nodded, carefully checking the contents on the map.

"I heard that among the five prefectural cities near the sea, the people in Ganzhou City are the poorest. I don't know if this is true or not?"

"It's true, the land in Ganzhou is barren, and the people pay a lot of miscellaneous taxes." Xiao Baorui sighed softly, "Last year's drought caused more than 5000 people to starve to death in Ganzhou alone."

Liu Qian, the governor of Ganzhou, liked to search for flowers and ask willows, and he didn't care about the lives of the people at all.

It is not a pity to die for such a person.

"Xiao Baorui, I received a secret letter from An Xiuhui a few days ago." Seeing his serious expression, Tang Huanxi immediately frowned, "I think Jing Yuan must still be alive."

"Her letter? Why?"

Xiao Baorui was sad for a long time when he learned that An Xiuhui was not the real Xiao Jingyuan.

After all, he really regarded An Xiuhui as his younger sister.

But it was later discovered that the person he treated sincerely had planned a deception from the very beginning.

Tang Huanxi explained concisely, and then saw Xiao Baorui's increasingly ugly face, and gently held his hand, comforting him silently.

"Xiao Baorui, after An Xiuhui successfully gave birth to the prince, the world will be in chaos, so for us now, the most important thing is not to quickly plunder cities and expand our power."

"What does the lady mean?"

"Hidden, but it is still necessary to win the five Linhai states. We must quickly capture those five state cities with the least force. When the time is right, we will show the emperor's will and take back what belongs to you!"

Xiao Baorui was thoughtful about Tang Huanxi's suggestion.

"My lady, are you really not going to Chaozhou with me?"

"The industry here in Yunshui County can't be left behind for a while, not to mention that even if Qiu Pingchuan is willing to become ours, don't forget that Yun'an City is not far from here."

How could a scheming person like An Xionghu not secretly send someone to watch them?

If she wanted to leave Yunshui County, she only had to wait until An Xionghu returned to Beijing to report on her duties.

"What's more, don't forget that there is an iron mine in a mountain range near Mingtang Mountain."
