Chapter 633 May You Return Victorious
The situation in Xiling County was extremely serious, and the prince had very little time to prepare.
Mo Hua ordered the palace maids and eunuchs in the Linde Hall around and around, and packed all the things that might be used and loaded them into the car.
Xiao Xixi originally wanted to go to Xiling County with the prince, but later she told the prince about his fortune and found out that he would be in danger in this battle, and the danger did not come from the battlefield, but from inside the palace.
In order to resolve the danger in time, Xiao Xixi decided to stay in the palace.
She stuffed a small bundle into the prince's hands.
"Here are a hundred amulets that I made for you overnight, as well as some medicine and detoxification pills that Master prepared for me. I'm giving them all to you. Please take them carefully and don't lose them."
Luo Qinghan looked at her steadily, and deep in his eyes, there was an incomprehensible emotion surging secretly.
"I will be back as soon as possible. You must wait for me."
Xiao Xixi nodded: "Yes."
Luo Qinghan: "When I come back, we will..."
Xiao Xixi immediately covered his mouth and said nervously, "Don't say such things. If such things are said in the picture book, there is a high probability that something unexpected will happen in the end."
Luo Qinghan smiled silently.
He pulled Xiao Xixi's hand away and held it tightly in his palm.
"I'm about to go to war. Say something nice to cheer me up."
Xiao Xixi tilted her head to look at him, thought for a moment, and then spoke.
"Do you remember a question you asked me before?"
Luo Qinghan: "Hmm?"
Xiao Xixi: "You asked me at that time, what kind of person do you think you are? At that time I said that it's up to you to decide what kind of person you are. In fact, that answer was quite perfunctory. Now I have a better answer. Do you want to hear it?"
Luo Qinghan: "Tell me about it."
"You are the one I want to show off to the whole world, but I can't bear to share with anyone else."
After Xiao Xixi said this, her face felt a little hot.
She smiled shyly.
Luo Qinghan felt a warm current surging in his heart.
The emotion hidden deep in my heart is like hot and boiling magma, as if it will burst out at the next moment.
He asked in a low voice: "What do you have that is worth showing off to others?"
Xiao Xixi counted with her little finger.
"You are very good-looking, smart, and have a photographic memory. Most importantly, you are very good to me! You tell me stories, buy me candied haws, let me raise pigs and grow vegetables in the East Palace, and even catch fish for me to eat. When I am in danger, you will stand up and protect me without hesitation..."
The more she spoke, the more moved she became, and she couldn't help but sigh while covering her heart.
"I must have saved the world in my previous life, so I am lucky enough to meet someone as good as the prince in this life!"
Luo Qinghan's mouth curled up involuntarily: "Don't I have any flaws in your eyes?"
Xiao Xixi said without hesitation.
"Of course you have your shortcomings! For example, you are a very picky eater, a troublemaker, and have a sharp tongue. The most important thing is that you are a straight man and don't understand romance at all! To put it bluntly, if you were not the prince, you would definitely be single for the rest of your life based on your poisonous speaking style!"
Luo Qinghan: “…”
With a snap, all the slowly rising pink bubbles burst.
He said expressionlessly, "I didn't know I had so many problems in your heart."
Xiao Xixi comforted him, "No one is perfect, I understand."
Eunuch Chang reminded in a low voice.
"The luggage has been packed, and it's almost time. Your Highness should set off."
Luo Qinghan hugged Xiao Xixi into his arms and bent down to kiss her on the cheek.
"You must wait for me to come back."
Xiao Xixi: "When you come back, remember to bring me two boxes of Su Xiang Tang snacks."
Luo Qinghan agreed.
He kissed Xiao Xixi on the lips again before letting her go.
Xiao Xixi watched him get into the carriage.
The convoy slowly drove out of the East Palace.
Other concubines from the Eastern Palace also came to see him off.
They knew that the prince was going to the war this time, and they were all worried. Swords and spears are merciless on the battlefield, and they wondered if the prince could return safely.
The prince personally led 80,000 troops to leave Shengjing.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is here in a blink of an eye.
In previous years, the palace would hold a Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet and lantern festival.
But this year the emperor was ill and could not attend the banquet. In addition, the prince was still fighting on the front lines, so it was not appropriate to hold a grand celebration in the palace at this time.
So the empress dowager waved her hand and cancelled this year's family banquet and lantern festival, and just gave each palace a banquet.
Qingge Hall was also allocated a table.
The delicacies carefully prepared by the imperial chef are naturally extremely delicious.
After Xiao Xixi had eaten and drunk her fill, she sat under the porch holding a wine jug.
She poured a full cup of osmanthus wine, raised the glass to the bright full moon in the sky, smiled and said.
"May you return victorious, my prince."
Not long after, an urgent war report was sent to Shengjing from 800 miles away.
This battle report alarmed the entire court.
The battle report showed that Crown Prince Luo Qinghan led 80,000 troops and horses and did not go to Xiling County, but took a detour to the Liao Kingdom!
The number of people in the Liao Kingdom was originally smaller than that of the Dasheng Dynasty. Now that 50,000 troops have been sent to Xiling County, there are only 40,000 Liao soldiers left in the country.
When the prince led an army of 80,000 and appeared on the border of Liao State, the entire Liao State was frightened out of its wits.
The King of Liao hurriedly organized people to resist the foreign enemies, and at the same time ordered people to send a message to the Liao soldiers far away in Xiling County, asking them to return to the country as soon as possible to provide support.
When Marquis Dingbei heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Your Highness, this move of cutting off the source of the trouble is truly brilliant!"
If the Liao people dare to attack their Xiling County, they will directly attack the Liao Kingdom!
Let’s see who can outsmart who?!
There were mixed reactions in the court regarding the prince's action.
Some people think that the prince is extremely wise, while others think that he is too impulsive.
But no matter what they said, they could not shake the prince's army's advance.
In Xiling County, 50,000 Liao soldiers were burning and looting wantonly.
They came to Xiling County not only to help King You resist the imperial army, but also to seize more money and people.
King You Luo Yunxuan obviously underestimated the greed and brutality of these Liao soldiers.
He originally thought that as long as he gave them enough gold, silver and treasures, the Liao soldiers would do as agreed beforehand. However, he did not expect that the Liao soldiers were simply a group of robbers with no bottom line.
After they drove away the imperial army, they began to show their true colors and did whatever they wanted in Xiling County.
Countless people were killed and their families were destroyed.
Even some local prominent families could not escape the disaster. Not only were their properties looted, but even their women were abducted and raped.
Luo Yunxuan was powerless to stop it, and the entire Xiling County was almost reduced to a living hell.
At this time, the Liao soldiers suddenly received a secret letter from the Liao Kingdom, and learned that the Dasheng army was attacking the Liao Kingdom.
The Liao soldiers then reluctantly withdrew and rushed back to Liao to provide support.
Unexpectedly, before they reached the Liao Kingdom, they were ambushed by the prince's army halfway.
