Chen Tian had originally thought about deliberately ignoring Bai Su, giving him the cold shoulder, teaching him a lesson. He wanted to let him know that he should consult him more often in the future. They were the closest of partners, and how could he remain completely unaware of such a major matter?
What if something more dangerous happens in the future? He needs to discuss it first, and what should he do if he goes there secretly and rashly?
But after seeing his beloved trying so clumsily to please him, Chen Tian couldn't bear to do it.
He sighed inwardly, grabbed the back of Bai Su's head, and deepened the kiss. He didn't hold back, as if to vent his anger, and didn't stop until the person opposite him was breathless before letting go and holding him tightly in his arms.
Chen Tian buried his head in his beloved's neck and said in a muffled voice, "You didn't even discuss such an important matter with me in advance. Where do you think of me?"
Bai Su lowered his eyes upon hearing this. "I was thinking, 'I hope to return to the army soon.' That way, once I have a position and military merits, I'll be worthy of the prince."
"What's the difference between worthy and not worthy? You are the best in my heart, and I don't care about these!" Chen Tian frowned.
"But I care." Bai Su raised his head and looked into Chen Tian's eyes seriously. "I want to stand shoulder to shoulder with the prince."
Seeing that his beloved was so persistent, all his objections were finally swallowed.
Chen Tian's love is pure, and he likes Bai Su no matter what. As long as the lover has his own ambitions, he will not stop him from achieving them.
It was this person who was always causing him trouble and worry every day, so Chen Tian's expression couldn't help but show some resentment.
Seeing this, Bai Su felt that he was still angry and was a little confused.
If I could take advantage of this opportunity to seize military power by going to the border, wouldn't that be beneficial to Prince Ning? Why is he unhappy?
Bai Su couldn't figure it out, but although he was anxious to return to the army, he also had concerns.
Even though he was currently in the capital, he was still in private with Prince Ning. As both men, their current relationship was still shady, and Prince Ning was a handsome and suave man, the dream lover of countless women.
What if he leaves the capital, and there are so many people around Prince Ning who are friendly to him, will they forget about him and be with others?
Bai Su was worried, but he didn't show it on his face. He just felt that he must let King Ning understand his importance.
After restraining his expression, he finally took out the Black Iron Order from his bosom and handed it to his beloved, saying seriously, "Chen Ye, this is the Black Iron Order my grandfather left me. It can be used to command the Iron Black Guards. After I leave the capital, the Iron Black Guards left here will be handed over to you. You can deploy them at your will."
Chen Tian looked at the black token in his hand and nodded.
He had already learned about Tie Xuanwei's abilities from 009. Although he, as a prince, had his own men, they were not as useful as Tie Xuanwei. With the Xuantie Order, if Bai Su needed help, it would be much easier for him.
Moreover, this Black Iron Token was so important. Xiaobai actually gave it to me. Doesn't that just show that he deeply loved me and trusted me?
Thinking of this, Chen Tian's mood improved a lot.
Bai Su saw that Prince Ning's expression had softened and he smiled at him. He followed suit with a smile, his face gentle, but a bitter feeling welled up in his heart.
As expected, his expectation was correct. After receiving the Black Iron Order, King Ning was delighted.
The military situation was urgent, so after the court issued an order today to appoint Bai Su as the general, they directly set a date for him to set off tomorrow morning.
Chen Tian thought about this and didn't have time to get angry with Bai Su. He hurriedly sent Bai Su back to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, then returned to his own house and packed up a lot of things he thought would be useful on the road and in the army.
It was only when the palace's steward saw his own prince stuffing things into the box one after another and reminded him that it was impossible for the prince to take so many gifts with him when he went to the border that he gave up.
I just regret that this isn't some kind of cultivation world or future world, and I can't use a storage ring or space button or anything like that.
Chen Tian frowned and picked and chose, and finally got two large boxes and asked someone to carry them to the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery and directly into Bai Su's yard.
It’s a pity that after opening the box, Bai Su discarded most of the things inside.
"What I brought here are all essential things. Besides, the weather is cold now, so you should always bring two extra cotton-padded clothes and quilts. If you take all these out, what will you do when you need them?"
Chen Tian accused with a look of disapproval.
Bai Su, feeling both amused and helpless, took out an exquisite copper carved hand warmer from the discarded box and said, "Is this also an indispensable item?"
There are many objects like this.
Seeing this, Chen Tian touched his nose and said, "I, I'm just worried that you'll be cold."
He couldn't help but want to make Bai Su more comfortable on the road. Even though he knew he couldn't bring everything, he still brought everything he thought was good. It would be good if he could take a few more things away.
But besides that, he also had a small package for Bai Su, filled with banknotes and various good medicines. Chen Tian told him to always keep it with him.
There was also a piece of gold-thread soft armor that he had someone rush to make, and Bai Su had to wear it at all times.
Looking at Prince Ning's expression, Bai Su felt that no matter whether this concern was true or false, it made him feel warm in his heart.
Thinking that his lover was going to the battle the next day, Chen Tian and others were reluctant to leave after seeing Bai Su completely pack up his luggage.
It was almost dusk, and Bai Su was deeply reluctant to leave him. Furthermore, he already had some thoughts in mind, so he deliberately invited Chen Tian to dinner.
Seeing that it was completely dark outside, he whispered, "It's getting late, why don't you stay here tonight?"
Chen Tian, who had always wanted to stay here overnight, was naturally willing to do so!
After washing up, the two of them lay on the bed in their pajamas. This was the second time they slept on the same bed since returning from Huguo Temple.
Chen Tian was excited to be lying with his beloved, but also felt lost because she was leaving the capital the next morning. The two emotions intertwined, and for a moment, he lost all desire to take advantage of her.
But Bai Su beside him was very nervous. He wanted to confirm their relationship before leaving.
He couldn't take the initiative to seduce her, and he didn't know how to do it, but he was unwilling to leave like this. Because once he arrived at the battlefield, he didn't know when he would be able to return.
After biting his lower lip, Bai Su finally made up his mind and held the hand of the man beside him. Seeing that the other party did not refuse, he closed his eyes, turned around and hugged him, and kissed the person he loved most fiercely.
The sudden benefit made Chen Tian a little dazed. However, after the two of them had half taken off their clothes and done many of the good things they had done before, Bai Su had not stopped yet and was moving closer and closer to home run, so he had to hold his hand.
"You're going to be on the road early tomorrow morning, and I don't want you to be too tired on the road!"
Chen Tian looked at Bai Su steadily and comforted him.
Bai Su didn't want to continue, but he stared at the other party for a long time, and seeing the unchanging determination in King Ning's eyes, he knew that he would not get what he wanted tonight.
Lowering his eyes to hide the darkness in them, Bai Su rested his head quietly on the other's shoulder and stopped moving.
Chen Tian sighed in his heart. It was not that he could not understand Bai Su's feelings, but now was not a good time anyway.
No matter how careful he was, he would still feel uncomfortable for a few days the first time. The border was in crisis, and Bai Su had to hurry and couldn't take a carriage, so he had to ride a horse. How could he bear it?
So he just gently kissed Bai Su's eyebrows and held him tightly in his arms.
The next day, Bai Su set off early as planned.
Chen Tian stood on the city wall, watching his lover's back, and stood in the morning sun for a long time.
Until the distant figure disappeared at the end of the road and could no longer be seen.
After leaving the city wall and taking another look at the prosperous capital, Chen Tian's face no longer had the relaxed smile of the past.
This city no longer had his lover. Bai Su left, taking his heart with him.
If you look closely, people who are familiar with him can even discern a faint aura of murderous intent from him.
He walked towards the court without hesitation. At this moment, Chen Tian, who had been too lazy to do anything, finally had some fighting spirit.
Now is the time for him to rectify this corrupt court so that his lover can have no worries on the battlefield.
Bai Su rode non-stop to the border. Although General Shang was guarding the border, he was old and lacked courage. Despite all his efforts, he still couldn't repel the enemy.
The sudden arrival of the wild geese caught them off guard, but it was not entirely without benefits.
At least this battle took place much earlier than in the original plot. At this point, the alliance between the Dayan and Tak tribes was still unstable, and their previously lost strength hadn't fully recovered. If a real fight broke out, Xiling wouldn't be too overwhelmed.
After Bai Su arrived, he was even more capable of planning. The first thing he thought of was to start by instigating the relationship between Dayan and the Tak tribe.
The Tak tribe did indeed annex many small tribes around it, and for a time it was the most powerful tribe.
But the key is that the time is too short, so many of the annexed tribes did not actually surrender sincerely, and even had the will for revenge, which made Bai Su's plan much easier to implement.
It is naturally impossible for two forces that do not trust each other to begin with to cooperate tacitly after being overwhelmed by suspicion.
This also gave Bai Su the opportunity to reverse Xiling's decline in a short period of time. Although it was impossible to immediately report a series of victories, at least he could fight Dayan on equal terms and prevent the other party from gaining an advantage.
This undoubtedly greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers at the border, and Bai Su's prestige in the army also rose.
Originally, many of the military commanders at the border were former subordinates of Lord Bai. Now, after Bai Su showed his extraordinary talent and skills, they regarded him as their target to continue following and being loyal to.
His fame reached its peak after he defeated the enemy army and personally beheaded the enemy general.
