"Don't worry, it's just military training, no one's life will be harmed."

Xing Zhao said it lightly, but it was also to show it to Xia Meng, but in fact no one knew what would happen in the future.

Once you embark on this path, you'll have to live your life with your head tied to your waist.

After he left, Xia Meng relaxed a little, then leaned back on a stool and tried to calm herself down. She had never felt this way before, as if something was missing from her heart.

He looked up at the cup that Xing Zhao had just used and fell into deep thought.

It was the early morning of the third day when Xing Zhao left.

He had said goodbye to everyone who needed to say goodbye, and was afraid that if everyone gathered together the sad mood would spread, so he left quietly.

But before leaving, he met Butler He, and asked him to tell everyone when the time comes.

Butler He has seen off many people over the years, so when he knew Xing Zhao was leaving, there was a lot of worry in his eyes, but he still saw him off respectfully.

But he didn't know that when Butler He turned around, he saw Xia Meng rushing over.

"Miss Xia, why are you up so early? Is there something wrong?"

"My cousin is gone?"

"Leave."

Xia Meng wanted to say something but stopped herself. She held the bottle in her hand, which she had not yet given away, and turned back silently.

Butler He has been observing people for so many years that he would definitely not make a mistake, so when he delivered the news to Xitang Courtyard, he also mentioned the matter in passing.

"You mean, Miss Xia was originally going to see you off, but was just a step too late?"

"That's what I think."

Du Jingyi suddenly felt that good things are worth waiting for. If this temporary separation could really allow both of them to understand what he was thinking, it would be a great thing.

So, although he appeared calm on the surface, he was still excited inside.

"Butler He, please go to my cousin's yard and see if there is anything he has forgotten. When you go out, you should always prepare everything properly. If there is anything, I can send someone to deliver it. Do you understand?"

Even if Butler He was dumb, he knew what his wife meant, so he nodded quickly. Even if he didn't have an excuse, he would have to find one.

At this moment, Xing Zhao, who was galloping towards the South Gate, would never have thought that he would actually meet Xia Meng in the army in a few days.

Sui'an City, at the south gate.

Guo Silang has been waiting here since early this morning. Ever since he learned that Xing Zhao was going to join the army, he has been waiting here to see if this was true.

Unexpectedly, he really waited for it.

Xing Zhao pulled the reins to stop the galloping horse, and then spoke.

"Why are you here? Are you waiting for me?"

Guo Silang had always been on guard against Xing Zhao, so he was a little surprised to see him really coming, so he spoke without hiding anything.

"Yeah, wait for you, let me see if you really want to go?"

"Do you believe it now?"

"I believe it. When you go there, remember to tell Sixth Brother that I will always be on the same page with him."

Xing Zhao pretended to be disgusted and said to Guo Silang.

"Who wants to be on the same page with you? Where do you put your cousin's wife and cousin Xue? Really, they are all fathers, but you still like to say these sticky words. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Hearing this, Guo Silang touched his head awkwardly, and was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he shouted to the person behind him.

“Let him go!”

Then he stepped aside and threw the wine bag on his body over. Xing Zhao caught it, opened it, smelled it, and said with a smile.

“It’s a huge investment.”

Guo Silang snorted twice and didn't respond, but his meaning was very clear. This was to warm him up for the road.

"Thank you. When I get to my cousin's place, I'll say a few good words for you!"

Xing Zhao was still joking as usual, then he whipped his horse whip and galloped out of the city. Guo Silang watched his figure gradually disappearing into the distance and laughed out loud, which was rare for him.

But he quickly restrained his expression and spoke to others.

"Everyone, cheer up and keep guard!"

"yes!"

The sun rose in the east, and when the sunlight covered the entire Sui'an City, the people in the main branch of the Xing family also received the news.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Madam Xing was very dissatisfied with her nephew's "escape", and then she said to her husband.

"This kid is spoiled by his third brother and his sister-in-law. Look, as soon as we talk about finding him a wife, he runs away. He even wants to join the army. It's really a joke. If he joins the army with his temper, I'm afraid he will be a headache for the generals wherever he goes."

Lord Xing also deeply agreed with what the lady said.

However, he held the booklet that Xing Zhao had already sorted out, and felt that he was quite sensible. Although he ran away, he still made arrangements for all these concerns before running away. Therefore, Lord Xing did not feel much regret about his departure.

"I was originally thinking of introducing Marquis Xun Xin's daughter to him, so as to strengthen the relationship between our two families. Now that he has run away, it means that he has no such blessing."

"That's what the master said."

"When will your nephew Wang Shuo from your mother's side arrive in Beijing?"

"It will take at most three to five days. We said at that time that we would settle in Sui'an City before the New Year."

Lord Xing nodded and then asked a question.

"I think he was just over twenty-two?"

Mrs. Xing looked excited and proud, and quickly responded.

"Master, you remember it well. My nephew has a bright future in the government. He is also the legitimate son of the family. He will definitely be a great help to the Seventh Prince in the court in the future."

When Lord Xing heard the name of the Seventh Prince, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, so he spoke directly without any hesitation.

"As the grandson of the Wang family, he is a perfect match for the daughter of Xunxin Marquis. When we hold the warm-up party, you can decide. Let the two get to know each other first. If there is a chance, ask your nephew to take the initiative."

The marriage with Marquis Xunxin is a very good one. The Wang family is also a powerful family in Jinling City, but marrying into the marquis family in Sui'an City is still considered marrying up.

However, my master will be promoted to the position of prime minister soon, and there are the royal concubine and the seventh prince to support him in the palace. If this marriage really goes through, it is hard to say who is marrying above his station.

So he smiled especially warmly and said.

"Don't worry, sir. I will arrange everything."

"Um."

The Xing family did not take Xing Zhao's departure from Sui'an City too seriously, so his departure was relatively smooth, without the kinds of obstacles that they had imagined.

Therefore, he rode at full speed and arrived at Wangzhou in a short time. (End of this chapter)
