"Gu Wei, what is the Changfeng Guard?"
In the study, Xie Ling knocked on Gu Wei's desk, interrupting his thoughts.
Gu Wei raised his eyes and grabbed the person in his arms.
Then he leaned his face on Xie Ling's shoulder, his voice was gentle, a little hoarse, and very seductive.
"The Changfeng Guard is the most powerful divine soldier in the world. They once defeated Dongling's army of 100,000 with only 3,000 light cavalry... Did your father-in-law ask you to ask me?"
Xie Ling nodded and straightened Gu Wei's face, "How did you know... By the way, why are you so clingy today?"
Gu Wei chuckled and hugged Xie Ling tighter, "Father-in-law is worried that I will bully you, so he deliberately asked you to ask me to scare me."
After saying that, he pinched Xie Ling's little nose and said, "Because my A Ling can't sleep with me every day."
Xie Ling laughed, "Dad is mentally fragile, so it would be good for his condition if I spend more time with him. Shi Jin, be good, okay?"
Gu Wei shook his head, "Not good."
Xie Ling comforted:
"Okay, okay, I won't be naughty anymore."
Gu Wei tilted his head and slightly widened his eyes. His narrow and long peach blossom eyes were turned into almond-shaped eyes by him pretending to be pitiful.
"A Ling, I can't leave you anyway, you know."
As he spoke, he raised his hand to lift the hair away from Xie Ling's face and kissed her cheek, restrained and gentle.
Xie Ling really wanted to ask, where did that aloof and upright General Gu go?
She whispered:
"Okay, I can't leave you either."
After being coaxed by Xie Ling, Gu Wei regained his smile, "A Ling, your father is very powerful, but I am not bad either. I will definitely treat you well and do my best."
"How can you compare with my father? He is my father and you are my husband. How can we be the same? Besides, why do I need you to give me these? Can't I do it myself? Am I incapable?"
Xie Ling crossed her arms across her chest.
Gu Wei gently pressed his face against hers, a look of self-blame flashed across his handsome face, "A Ling, don't be angry. I'm not saying that our A Ling is not powerful. It's just that I want to be more powerful, so that others know that our A Ling has a powerful husband."
Xie Ling just fell for Gu Wei's tricks.
A man who is usually as cool and upright as a gentleman, once in front of her, he turns into a pitiful little green tea.
His words were too gentle, it really... made people feel soft-hearted.
"Then you have to work hard, because I also want people to know that you have a powerful wife. Let's see who is more powerful between us."
Xie Ling raised her eyebrows, opened the curtain and left the study.
Gu Wei stared at Xie Ling's receding back until she was out of sight.
His father-in-law dotes on his daughter too much, so it seems he has to work harder to give Aling everything better.
An Xuetao did not deliberately hide the matter of Wei Xiuchu. After a few days, everyone knew that Xie Ling had a new father.
The person who was happiest after learning about this was Wei Linglong.
From ordinary sisters to cousins with a strong blood relationship, Wei Linglong deeply felt that her status next to Xie Ling had risen.
As soon as I met Gao Wanhua, Wu Zhengqing and a few other friends, I pulled them aside to talk about this matter.
"You know, A Ling is my biological sister, we are related by blood."
"No wonder I'm so smart, it turns out it's because A Ling is my sister."
"But I think my sister treats everyone the same. She will never be partial to me just because I'm her biological sister."
So much so that when the two people behind saw Wei Linglong, the first thing they said was, "I know, I know, Sister Aling, a blood-related sister."
After the winter solstice, heavy snow began to fall across Lingnan, fluttering down like salt on the earth, covering the fields with a thick quilt. The emerald green mountains were all covered in white.
Jiangnan, not far from Lingnan, was also affected. There was heavy snow and biting cold winds. Looking around, it was all white and long groups of people and horses were walking on the snowy ground.
"Your Majesty, Jiangnan Prefecture is not far ahead, and the governor has been waiting for a long time."
Xie Boyuan's face was red from the cold, and even the thick felt hat could not keep out the bone-chilling cold. His lips were blue and purple, and his voice was trembling.
From the luxurious carriage, a muffled "Hmm" was heard from afar.
I guess it’s because the felt curtain is too thick and no sound can be heard.
Xie Boyuan sighed.
Just by being closer to the carriage, he could feel a slight warmth, which made him feel more comfortable, not to mention the inside of the carriage.
The emperor would rather burn charcoal until he sweats all over than give any of it to his old ministers who have walked thousands of miles with him.
You have to know that all these old ministers are old and weak, so who doesn’t have some old illness?
The journey of thousands of kilometers southward to move the capital resulted in the death of many officials and the loss of many talents in the court.
But the emperor is still so stingy and cold-blooded.
Xie Boyuan was heartbroken and came to the carriage behind the bright yellow carriage.
This is the carriage of Queen Xie Yunyan.
Because she was pregnant, she was allowed to use some charcoal as an exception.
Xie Boyuan had not stood there for a while when a little maid stuck her head out and handed him a wooden barrel covered with black cloth.
Xie Boyuan looked left and right, then quickly took it away secretly.
The closer you get to the south of the Yangtze River, the more people there are, and occasionally there are a few farmers along the official road.
At the emperor's signal, several soldiers rushed into the houses with knives, forcing and bribing them to hand over the grain.
Lu Yinli was heartbroken and wanted to stop it.
But he could touch the white figure with an immortal look beside the carriage, so he gritted his teeth and stopped moving.
Lord Yu once said that if one wants to bring down the Beijiang royal family, the most important thing is to let them cause chaos among themselves first.
If there is external chaos, they still have room to maneuver; only if there is internal corruption will they be truly powerless to turn the situation around.
And even if he could stop it once, could he stop it a hundred times?
If the root cause is not resolved, everything you do will be in vain.
After those soldiers grabbed the food, they went straight to the end of the team and put the food into the large black horse carriage where supplies were stored.
Most of the food for nearly 70,000 people over a journey of thousands of miles was obtained through coercion and inducement.
This was Xie Boyuan's idea.
The emperor was very happy when he knew it, and praised him for his genius. He immediately adopted the idea and rewarded him greatly.
But the people suffered.
They thought the imperial court came to rescue them, but they turned out to be more bandit-like than bandits and stole all their food.
Those people who had no food to eat had no choice but to join the rebels.
Therefore, unknowingly, the rebel forces grew larger and larger.
…
"We've arrived at Jiangnan!"
Xie Boyuan pointed excitedly at the prosperous city in front of him.
Just as he finished speaking, a few dark figures hurriedly walked across the vast white ground.
The tall middle-aged man in the lead raised his voice and said, "I am Zou Ming, the governor of Jiangnan, and I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
The short and fat man beside him also saluted, "I am Yang Zheng, the governor of Jiaozhou, and I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
