1,000 personal guards, 300 slaves, and more than 30 horse-drawn carriages were traveling in a mighty procession on the official road from Jinling to Fengyang, bathing in the morning glow, enjoying the fragrance, and gradually moving away in the blooming mountain flowers.
In the most luxurious carriage traveling in the middle, the prince, who originally had a haggard face and needed help even to stand, was now wearing a black brocade robe embroidered with gold. He was leaning leisurely on the soft couch of the carriage, sipping tea and gazing with a smile at the stunning woman who was reading a military book beside him.
Compared to the beautiful scenery outside, the person in front of him was obviously more beautiful. Even if he did nothing, he could still happily watch her all day long.
After his Crown Princess gave him acupuncture for a month, he actually spent November 1st safely like a normal person, and the cold that had plagued him for several years was basically cured.
They abandoned everything in the court and headed for Fengyang. The main reason was that the Spirit Root Grass had matured on Wanling Mountain, not far from Fengyang. This herb was the fifth antidote to the Seven Flower Poison in his body. Because it required the blood of a human to be consumed to pull it out, he had to go alone this time.
In order to avoid attracting Murong Qingyu's attention, he made his condition worse. Even if Murong Qingyu was extremely suspicious, he could not have guessed that he, who was already so ill that he had difficulty even getting up, would secretly take a detour from Fengyang with Murong Xiao to Wanling Mountain, 200 miles away from Fengyang.
"If you keep staring at me like this, can you see a flower on my head?"
From the time they stepped onto the carriage early in the morning until now when the sun was high in the sky, they chatted for a while in between, but during the silence, he kept looking at her like this.
Finally, Murong Xiao couldn't bear it any longer and looked up, meeting those star-like eyes that almost sucked her in.
"The flowers are not as beautiful as you, and they won't look good on my head." Qian Yeming answered with a smile.
Murong Xiao rolled his eyes to the sky, lowered his head and continued reading.
"My wife's favorite things are indeed different."
Murong Xiao raised her eyes in confusion and saw him staring at the military book in her hand. She understood and said, "The journey was boring, so I was just taking a look."
"There are also many travel notes and miscellaneous talks in the carriage."
"No, I'm not interested in that."
"What do you think of this military book in your hand?"
Murong Xiao was silent for a moment before answering, "This is a military book written by a scholar."
"Oh? How do you mean?"
"Although his insights are unique, they are inevitably empty talk. He has written many exciting military strategies, but nearly half of them cannot be put into practice."
After hearing Murong Xiao's insights, Qian Yeming's eyes lit up with warmth and admiration.
"Then you're still watching with such gusto."
Murong Xiao smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you that I was just bored on the way and just took a look around."
In fact, although the military strategies in this book may seem armchair, the various military deployments, especially the formations for large-scale battles, are recorded in great detail.
The number of people in each formation, how to set up the formation, how to change the formation, and how to derive the formation within the formation were all written in great detail. This was a serious shortcoming she discovered when she went to the battlefield in her previous life.
Because she is a modern agent, although she has participated in battles in some countries, modern battles are completely different from ancient battles.
