The prince is very fierce

Chapter 70: Relentless pursuit

The bed collapsed!

In the middle of the night, Xu Buling squatted in the boudoir with two wooden boards, quietly repairing the silly wife's embroidery bed.

Ning Yuhe was worried about being discovered, so he returned to his yard early; on the carved soft couch in the boudoir, Xiao Xiang'er and Zhong Lijiujiu were wrapped in spring quilts, lying together like caterpillars.

Xiao Xiang'er only showed her charming face, her almond-shaped eyes were a little disappointed, and now she was still complaining: "What a ruined palace, it collapsed under the weight of four people. I have never seen such bad furniture since I was a child. It's really funny." My horizons are widened~"

Zhongli Jiujiu's eyes were embarrassed, and she carefully looked outside: "Please keep your voice down, if people find out, sister, I will be embarrassed to live..."

Xu Bu Ling looked a little embarrassed. He couldn't talk back after being scolded by his wife. He repaired the bed honestly, hugged the two of them and put them back together. He wanted to continue, but was kicked out by the frightened Jiu Jiu. .

Xu Buling knew that he had treated his wife badly, so he lay down on the sofa angrily, hugging the quilt, and closed his eyes for a while, and the sky became dim.

He didn't sleep well last night, and Xu Buling didn't have the nerve to wake up the two people who had just fallen asleep. He got up and put on his robes lightly. After washing and eating, he went to the council hall and met with the palace think tank who had gotten up early. Get down to business.

Fifty thousand troops is not a large number, but it is definitely a lot. Behind them are engineers, civilians, pack horses, etc. The heavy cavalry also has two servants per ride. The actual number is definitely more than 50,000. Just the logistics of food and grass and the scheduling of the march are very demanding. After several days of preparation, there can be no mistakes.

After discussing the matter, it was already noon. Xu Buling took some free time and rode his horse to the sea of ​​flowers outside Suzhou City.

In mid-February, soothed by the spring breeze, the sea of ​​flowers beside Yuanyang Lake changes almost every day. At this time, thousands of flowers are in bloom, and the fragrance of the flowers can be smelled half a mile away.

Arriving in the sea of ​​flowers, Xu Buring had not yet reached the wooden house. On the terrace of the wooden house in the distance, Cui Xiaowan, wearing a warm yellow skirt, held a small wooden stick in her hand and hurriedly taught:

"Don't bite it, why are you so cruel..."

At the edge of the terrace, the little black dog and the big yellow dog were hiding in the corner and shivering with fear in their eyes. They had already stood up with their backs against the corner, tilting their heads and waving their paws, wailing.

The big white goose, which had recovered from a long run, waved its big wings, biting one of Huang's hind legs fiercely and dragging it out. It looked like a rich man who raped a peasant girl. The scene was terrible to watch.

Cui Xiaowan was not very courageous, and she didn't dare to hit her with a small wooden stick. She hid behind the recliner, her eyes a little angry, but she had no choice but to wave the small wooden stick helplessly:

"If you bite again, I'll stew you later, I'm serious..."

Seeing this scene, Xu Buring couldn't laugh or cry. He quickly jumped onto the terrace and lifted up the wanton Prince Bai.

The little black dog and Ah Huang were granted amnesty and jumped into the newly built kennel next to the wooden house, not even forgetting to close the fence door.

When Cui Xiaowan saw Xu Buling coming, the annoyance on her face subsided and she said crisply:

"Hey, where did you find the goose? It's not obedient at all. It started chasing the dog and biting it when it was delivered yesterday afternoon. I was afraid that it would kill the dog and I didn't dare to sleep."

Xu Buling threw the big white goose into the sea of ​​flowers and said with a smile: "It can't bite Ah Huang to death, it's just a joke. A weak girl like Yu Fu can calm it down, but if you hit it a few times, it won't dare to be aggressive." ”

Cui Xiaowan didn't know Song Yufu, so she said softly: "Is it your woman's goose? Then it can't be stewed. I'm still thinking of making a pot of goose soup."

Xu Buling waved his hand quickly: "It can't be stewed. If you stew it, Yufu must stew me. It's good to keep it as a playmate."

Cui Xiaowan saw the big white goose standing helplessly outside the dog cage, so she put it aside for the time being. She leaned the stick against the wall, then ran back to the wooden house, took out a teacup and teapot, and brought out a plate of melon seeds. She sat down next to the recliner and pointed to the other recliner:

"Xu Xian lifted up White Snake's quilt, what did you see?"

Looking at the eager look, it was obvious that he had been waiting all day long.

Xu Buling sat back on the recliner and continued yesterday's topic: "I saw a big white snake with a thick waist, white scales all over its body, and red fangs. It frightened Xu Xian to the point of splitting his liver and gallbladder, and he was so scared that he died on the spot. …”

The spring breeze blows in the sea of ​​flowers, and the wind chimes on the eaves jingle.

Cui Xiaowan sat sideways on the recliner, pouring tea and peeling melon seeds. She listened to Xu Buling's story seriously as she did yesterday, and occasionally asked questions she didn't understand.

It's just that Xu Buling is about to lead the army on an expedition, so he can no longer drink tea and tell stories as leisurely as yesterday. When it comes to White Snake stealing fairy grass to save Xu Xianhou, he no longer throws away the introduction to leave suspense, and instead says:

"Miss Cui, news came from Chang'an City yesterday that the emperor urgently summoned the Xiliang army to enter the pass to quell the rebellion of the three kings in the east, and instructed me to take command. I'm afraid I will leave Xiliang and enter the pass in the next two days. I can't tell you this in a short time. ”

Cui Xiaowan was mentally prepared, but she was still a little disappointed in her eyes. She withdrew her gaze, leaned on the lounge chair, and turned to look at the sea of ​​flowers outside:

"The purpose of fighting is to avoid fighting. I know the importance of it. Just don't get ahead of yourself like the emperor."

Xu Buling shook his head and said: "The emperor and I are not the same kind of people. I care more about my family. However, no matter how fast the rebellion is, it will take a lot of time. Just marching from Suzhou to Chang'an will take more than one or two months. If you meet the troops of the three kings in the east and attack each other's cities, you can't tell how long it will take. It could be as short as one or two years, or as long as seven or eight years. Miss Cui, you..."

Cui Xiaowan smiled and said, "Just worry about fighting and don't worry about me. I've been in the mountains for so many years and it's fine. It's the same here."

Xu Buling hesitated a little, but Cui Xiaowan liked to live alone, so he couldn't say much, so he smiled and said:

"Then I'll try to go as early as possible and come back as early as possible."

"Well, go to hell...no, I hope the young master will return in triumph."

"Haha, let me borrow some good words from the girl."

Xu Buring smiled and didn't stay. He stood up and jumped off the terrace, heading towards the outskirts of the sea of ​​flowers.

Cui Xiaowan leaned on the recliner and watched the figure in white getting further and further away. She felt that the scene was a bit similar to that dusk in the canyon. The smile on her face gradually faded, but she did not say anything.

After Xu Buling walked far away, he turned around and raised his hand to say goodbye.

Cui Xiaowan also raised her hand and shook it. After Xu Burang disappeared at the end of the sea of ​​flowers, she stood up. As usual, she picked up a small hoe and shovel and began to tidy up the endless sea of ​​flowers outside the terrace.

But not long after, Eunuch Jia, who was fishing by Yuanyang Lake, came back, stood behind Cui Xiaowan, and looked in the direction where Xu Buling disappeared:

"A war doesn't happen overnight. I'm afraid it won't be easy for the girl to wait once we leave."

Cui Xiaowan did not raise her head and carefully dug the flower seedlings: "What should I wait for him to do? If you are bored, you can go to Queen Mother and Miss Ning, or you can go to Miss Jiujiu to tell stories, or you can go to the hot springs. There are many things you can do. "

Eunuch Jia folded his sleeves with his hands, shook his head and said, "He took away all the women around him and left you here alone."

Cui Xiaowan made a movement with her hands and turned her head: "He went out to fight, why did he bring a woman with him?"

Eunuch Jia looked a little helpless: "I don't know, I don't know. Everyone has left, leaving only the two of us, two dogs and a goose. It doesn't seem to be very interesting. Miss Cui, do you think you should go back to Youzhou or follow?" "

Cui Xiaowan was silent for a moment, inserted a small shovel into the ground, and said a little unhappy: "I thought he left his family in Suzhou. I just said that because he was afraid of embarrassment for him. I have already told him not to leave, and I can't go back on my word. Now What to do?”

Eunuch Jia understood the meaning and sighed softly: "Old slave, let's think of a way. I originally wanted to bury it here, but it seems I have no chance."

"Just come back after the battle~"

"well……"
