"What are you humming for?" Song Wan pinched his little face with her charcoal-stained hand, and drew a pair of scowls and a mustache for him.
And they couldn't stop commenting, "Too thin, not meaty enough, hard to knead."
Guanzhen: “…”
They fought all the way to Yongcheng, less than 200 miles away from the capital of Daye.
When marching and fighting, even if there is sufficient food and fodder, one cannot stop to rest for even a single day.
In addition, today is New Year's Day, so Gu Yan hurriedly asked people to buy a lot of good meat and vegetables to reward the soldiers who had worked hard for many days.
He planned to give the old emperor of Daye two days, either to surrender voluntarily, or he would have to continue to advance his army.
After hearing this, Song Wan said, "Why give him a choice? Why not just arrest him directly?"
"Don't be impulsive." Gu Yan was worried that she would sneak away without telling him. "Right now, in Yejing City, the princes are fighting among themselves, and they finally forced the old emperor to depose the crown prince. Now that the crown prince position is vacant, they will definitely suspend their fighting and maintain a united front against the outside world before a new crown prince is appointed."
"So what?" Song Wan said fearlessly, "Wait until I capture the old emperor and see how they can unite against the outside world."
"Are you going?" Song Wan looked at him, excitement flashing in her eyes. "If you don't go, I'll go alone."
There should be a lot of treasures in the palace of Daye, and I don’t know if they can all be moved in one trip.
Gu Yan was anxious: "...go."
If the old emperor could be kidnapped and the Daye royal family could continue fighting among themselves, it would indeed be the strategy with the least damage.
Besides, if he let her go alone, how could he command the battlefield from the periphery with peace of mind?
"Princess, what about me and Gu Wu?" Song Qi looked at us eagerly.
They are all used to following the princess, and would feel very uncomfortable if they were left behind.
"Then let's all go." Song Wan waved her hand. With more people, they could move more things. "But Big Baldy and Little Baldy will stay in the city."
It was obvious that these two people were incapable of moving anything and needed her protection.
Bald Song Yu: "......"
Little bald Guanzhen: "......"
Song Qi laughed out loud, but still said, "Princess, the prince has grown his hair now."
"So what? His hair was so long back then, but it was cut off in just a few clicks." Song Wan said without giving him face.
Facing Song Wan's seemingly innocent face, Song Yu could no longer call out the word "donor".
He didn't know that Song Wan had been secretly treating him all the way. He just thought that after spending half a year together, some habits in his memory had returned.
Everyone said that she was his biological sister, but he felt strange about the face in front of him that looked so similar to his own.
"Brother, don't worry." Song Wan patted his shoulder with her paw, successfully leaving a black mark. "Tomorrow I'll ask Tiedan to find you a small knife and help you shave your head."
"I want one too!" Guan Zhen touched the prickly hair on his head and pouted, "Brother, we haven't had a haircut in several months since Master disappeared."
When he was in the temple, the master would cut his hair every month and apply tung oil on the top of his head so that his hair would not grow so fast.
"No rush." Song Yu said subconsciously.
After he saw a few glances directed at him, Baba explained, "If you have Buddha in your heart, Buddha will arise naturally. There is no need to excessively pursue formalities."
Song Wan put her hand on her chin and stared at him, "Why do I feel like you don't want to shave, brother?"
She remembered that this was not his attitude when they first met in the temple.
Song Yu: "You're mistaken."
After saying that, he quickly avoided her gaze.
Song Wan felt that he was clearly guilty.
The large Yue army was approaching the city, and countless powerful officials in Yejing were in a panic.
Some have already begun to pack up their property, preparing to escape in the chaos after the city is broken, while others still blindly trust the court and even want to gain the upper hand by secretly joining a certain prince.
Since they advanced rapidly, the old emperor of Daye transferred all the troops from several nearby cities back to the capital. Now there are a total of 150,000 troops in the entire Yejing city. Every time they capture a city, they have to leave some troops behind to stabilize the people in the city and avoid chaos.
Currently, the Southwestern Army stationed in Yongcheng has only about 100,000 troops.
Fortunately, the soldiers' morale is several times greater than that of the opponents.
Gu Yanji was not worried that the next battle would be difficult to fight, as it was enough to have General Qin in charge.
If you want to enter the city smoothly, it is best to do so late at night when the enemy is relaxed.
Seeing that everyone was eating and drinking well, Song Wan said, "Change into clothes that are convenient for moving goods."
"Princess, what goods do you want to move?" Song Qi had just finished the last bite of roasted sweet potato. They were not far from the army, and were surrounded by noisy soldiers. Song Wan's voice was not loud, so he could hardly hear clearly.
"I say, change into clothes that are convenient for moving goods!" Song Wan shouted into his ear.
Song Qi felt like he was about to die. He rubbed his ears with his hands, not quite understanding, "Princess, are you not going to the Yejing Palace to capture the old emperor?"
"That's why I asked you to change clothes just because we're going." Song Wan stopped talking. "By the way, each of you should bring a few sturdy sacks."
Song Qi realized later that the princess was not going to capture Emperor Daye, but was clearly eyeing his treasury.
For some reason, he actually began to feel a little sympathy for Emperor Daye at this moment.
