I saw a woman with her hair in a high bun and a red dress. Her skin was as white as jade. The eyes exposed in the veil on her face were like two pools of autumn water. Her clothes were fluttering like a fairy from the world, dancing from the sky. So, so beautiful!
Such a beautiful picture made several people stunned for a moment. When the fairy in red floated to his side and suddenly smelled the familiar body fragrance on her body, Chen Xiaomu suddenly realized that this fairy was none other than Su Xingran. He He never dreamed that his wife, who usually likes to laugh and play with him, could have such superb martial arts! "
The three men in black on the opposite side all looked straight at this moment. The leading man in black couldn't help but wink at Su Xingran and said: "Beautiful little fairy, will you come with me? I guarantee you can't even wear silk and satin. over!"
As soon as the man in black finished speaking, a red shadow flashed in front of Chen Xiaomu's eyes. At the same time, two crisp slaps of "pa, pa" were heard from the opposite side. The black cloth covering the face of the man in black was also pulled off smoothly, revealing a His pale and delicate face was dripping with blood under his nostrils. When Chen Xiaomu came to his senses, Su Xingran had returned to his side, her plump and towering chest rising and falling slightly.
It happened in the blink of an eye. Before the man in black could react after being slapped, Su Xingran had already finished his work. He was stunned for a moment. The man in black seemed to have been greatly humiliated, and his delicate face instantly turned ferocious. It was ugly. He wiped off the blood under his nostrils, pulled out a long sword from his back, and shouted wildly: "Fifth Junior Brother, Sixth Junior Brother, come with me, tie this stinky bitch back, and serve it to the three of us brothers." Enjoy together!”
When Chen Xiaomu heard this, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He reached out and took out the small explosive bag that he used for self-defense. He flicked the fuse to light the fuse and threw it at the three men in black. At the same time, he grabbed Su Xingran and kicked, bang, continuously He took more than ten steps back and cursed angrily: "You three thieves, go to hell!"
Three men in black were wielding swords and getting ready to outflank the two of them. When they saw Chen Xiaomu smashing a small cloth bag that was smoking, they all felt strange and funny. They all stretched out their swords and wanted to attack the two men. The cloth bag was pushed away. Soon after, a bright light flashed and a loud bang was heard. The three men in black did not understand what was going on because the distance was too close and it was close to the top of the three people. There was an explosion above, and the upper bodies of the three people were blown away in an instant. Human intestines and minced meat fell everywhere with the rain of blood. The deserted courtyard suddenly turned into a Shura field. The horses pulling the carriage jumped up in fright. Chirping noises.
"Quick, quick, follow me and rush in to rescue the Sixth Prince!" At this time, Lu Yi led the Princess Mansion Guards and all rushed into the courtyard. After seeing that Chen Xiaomu and Su Xingran were safe and sound, they breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that When he was running away just now, he realized that the pock-marked man was not chasing him at all, and he had not achieved his strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain. Originally, he was planning to turn back and tangle with the pock-marked man again, but when he thought about it carefully, just because he had just confronted the pock-marked man With that knife, I estimate that even if I come back, I won't be able to survive three or five rounds at the hands of the pockmarked man. Not only will I not be able to save the Sixth Prince, but I might even lose my life. If I have this time, I might as well rush back to the Princess Mansion to call in the Princess. The escort team was more certain of rescuing the Sixth Prince, so he stopped a carriage on the road and rushed all the way back to the Princess Mansion to report to Su Xingran to mobilize troops.
Su Xingran became anxious as soon as she heard this. After asking for the approximate direction, she immediately used the cloud control skill, jumped up on the roof and ran on the ridge to find it in the direction Lu Yi said. Although the Princess Guards led by Lu Yi were also He galloped on horseback, but he couldn't outrun Su Xingran's cloud-controlling skill. He was still one step behind Su Xingran.
After this incident, Chen Xiaomu gave up the idea of going to Bao Fuji Clothing Village and returned to the Princess Mansion with Su Xingran. Chen Xiaomu felt that there must be something behind this incident. After the so-called concept treasure, just over an hour later, someone was planning to rob him. Judging from the fact that someone in the court did not want Su Chengxuan to get the money from the sale of the treasure, the purpose was probably to use Su Chengxuan to return the treasure. At a time when the new capital city is not stable, the Imperial Forest Army and the Forbidden Army who are forcing rebellion against the imperial court will directly let Su Chengxuan's imperial court be overthrown or take advantage of the chaos to replace it! "
After returning to the princess's house, Chen Xiaomu retreated from the maids beside Su Xingran, told Su Xingran the story of being kidnapped alone, and analyzed to her the possible shocking conspiracy behind the incident. Su Xingran was also surprised when he heard this, and after thinking for a long time, he Said: "Husband, we should go to the palace quickly to report this matter to the emperor, mobilize uncle's imperial army, and prepare for the worst!"
Chen Xiaomu shook his head and said: "It's easy to alert them. Once they are alerted and fight to the death, it will be a big mess!"
Su Xingran said anxiously: "What should we do? We can't just let things take their own course, right?"
Chen Xiaomu smiled and said: "How come? The most important thing now is to stabilize the morale of the army. When we first captured Xinjing City, I heard Zhang Yong, the then prefect of Xinjing City, confess that a sum of money he collected when he was the prefect was hidden in In his mansion, I will send people to search for him tonight, so as to solve the court’s urgent needs first!”
"Oh! This is great!" Su Xingran was surprised and happy. She couldn't help but stretched out her hands, put her arms around Chen Xiaomu's neck and said coquettishly, "Husband, why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm so worried!"
Chen Xiaomu chuckled and said, "I'm not thinking out of a hurry. Did I just remember it?"
The two were having fun when the female officer named Furong came in to report, "Princess, according to your instructions, I have gathered five ironworkers and five carpenters. They are now waiting in front of the princess's mansion."
Su Xingran let go of Chen Xiaomu's neck and said shyly: "Husband, I have found all the people you want. Do you want to go out and have a look?"
"I must have this!" Chen Xiaomu stood up from the chair, took Su Xingran's little hand, and followed the female officer outside.
At the entrance of the Princess Mansion, there were two piles on the left and right. Standing were ten tall, short, fat and thin people, ranging in age from the oldest in their sixties to the youngest in their thirties. Chen Xiaomu looked around, pointed at the five people on the left and smiled: " It seems that the five people here are carpenters?" Then he pointed to the five people on the right and said: "The five people here are ironworkers, right?"
Everyone bowed and saluted: "That's right, the master is right."
Chen Xiaomu asked, "Do you have a leader?" "
The sixty-year-old old man in the carpenter's pile stood up and cupped his hands and said: "I would like to inform my master that my name is Yu Hao, and the four people behind me are my apprentices."
Chen Xiaomu nodded and looked at the blacksmith. In the blacksmith pile was a man in his late forties with a purple face. He looked back and forth and saw that others had no intention of standing up, so he stood up hesitantly. He said: "My master, my master cannot come because he is not feeling well, so I have ordered my disciple Zheng Jiang to bring several senior brothers to the princess's residence to take orders."
''oh! Chen Xiaomu asked with concern: "Is your master's condition serious?" If it is convenient, our Princess Mansion can send an imperial doctor to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment. "
Zheng Jiang couldn't help being happy when he heard this. He quickly knelt on his knees and kowtowed in thanks: "It's convenient, it's so convenient. My disciple Zheng Jiang thanked my master for his kindness on behalf of my master!"
Chen Xiaomu raised his hand to let Zheng Jiang stand up first, and then said with a smile: "It's just a small effort, don't worry about it. As long as you do a good job in our princess's house, it's better than anything else."
Zheng Jiang clasped his fists and said, "Master, please rest assured. As long as the Princess's Mansion is restored, our Hu's Iron Shop will stop all the work we are currently doing and mobilize all our manpower to finish the Princess's Mansion first!"
Chen Xiaomu smiled and said loudly to everyone: "Everyone go back and clean up first. Tomorrow morning, bring all the household items to gather in front of the princess's mansion. I will specially arrange people to wait for you here!"
"Okay, okay." The carpenters and ironworkers left in succession. Only Zheng Jiang remained standing. Chen Xiaomu turned to Su Xingran and said, "Honey, is there a doctor in the princess's mansion?"
Su Xingran nodded, "Yes, my father asked the Shang Pharmacy Bureau to assign an imperial doctor to work in the princess's mansion all year round. I will tell Furong to take him there to find him." "
After Furong led Zheng Jiang to find the imperial doctor, Chen Xiaomu had not yet breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lu Yi running over with a frightened look on his face. Just now, when Chen Xiaomu and Su Xingran returned home from the abandoned yard, they left him where they were to deal with the aftermath with the local government. Affairs, but I don’t know what happened to him later that made him so frightened. Chen Xiaomu frowned and asked, "What happened to Captain Lu again? He was so panicked!"
Lu Yi hurriedly whispered: "Princess, on the way back from the sixth prince's official appointment, he noticed that there were suddenly many suspicious people near the princess's residence, and there were also some who seemed to be wanderers among them!"
Chen Xiaomu and Su Xingran looked at each other. Although they were somewhat prepared, they didn't expect it to come so quickly. Su Xingran gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "These thieves are too courageous. I don't believe they dare to openly besiege the princess's mansion!"
Chen Xiaomu thought for a moment and said to Su Xingran: "Honey, I'll send someone to take you into the palace to take shelter first, and leave the matter here to me. How about that?"
Su Xingran smiled contemptuously, "They are just a few little robbers. I haven't taken them seriously yet. If they want to come and die, just let them come!"
"Honey, now is not the time to be impulsive! Besides, if you stay, it will affect my ability to let go!" Chen Xiaomu persuaded bitterly.
"Husband, you don't have to say any more!" Su Xingran interrupted Chen Xiaomu and said decisively: "I will not leave. Since we are husband and wife, there is no reason to leave one of us behind! Besides, with my skills, they will not leave." You won’t get any advantage from me.”
"Okay, then you hide in the house and don't come out no matter how big things happen outside, okay?" Chen Xiaomu had no choice but to retreat and do the next best thing.
Su Xingran happily agreed this time, "Husband, as long as you don't leave the princess's mansion, I will obey you!"
Chen Xiaomu asked Su Xingran to go back to the house to rest first, and then asked Lu Yi to take a few people to the street to buy some old fishing nets, bamboo poles and hemp ropes.
After Lu Yi took the order and left, Chen Xiaomu was about to go to the front yard of Princess Qingfeng Mansion and the Princess Guard station to look for Wang Wu. Suddenly he heard a surprise voice calling him from behind: "Your Highness, you are finally back!" "
No need to ask, Chen Xiaomu knew it was Li Gui just by listening to the voice without turning around. Originally, when Chen Xiaomu went to find Wang Wu, he was also asked to go to the Five Thousand Jingqi station outside the city to find Li Gui. Unexpectedly, Li Gui happened to find him! Chen Xiaomu turned around and smiled angrily: "Li Gui, where did you go? Your Highness was kidnapped by a gangster, but you are not impatient!"
When Li Gui heard that he was wronged, he argued: "Your Highness, since you were kidnapped by that ugly woman that night, I have transferred all the brothers in the reconnaissance company to Xinjing City, and we have been conducting overt and covert inspections to look for Your Highness day and night every day. His whereabouts, but unfortunately we still have too few people. Putting these dozens of people in such a large new capital city will undoubtedly be like looking for a needle in a haystack! But even so, my brothers and I did not give up on finding His Highness."
Chen Xiaomu laughed and said, "Since the brothers of the reconnaissance company are all in the city, go and recruit them to the princess's mansion. I have something to do for them. The sooner the better."
"Yes," Li Gui agreed, turned around and left in a hurry.
Chen Xiaomu stood there and thought for a while, then came to the Princess Guards station in the front yard of the Princess Mansion. There were about thirty or forty houses scattered with blue bricks and gray tiles. Two soldiers with spears were standing guard at the door, because Chen Xiaomu was standing guard on both sides. He led them to fight a few months ago, so the two soldiers standing guard recognized him from a distance and hurriedly came over with long spears. When they got closer, the two of them were about to salute when Chen Xiaomu waved his hand and said, "No need. Go and call Wang Wu."
The two looked at each other, and the older one said to the younger one: "Zhuzi, go and call Captain Wang here, and tell him that the prince-in-law wants to see him, and I will accompany him here."
"Hey" Zhu Zhu agreed, turned around and ran away with his spear in hand.
It didn't take much, and before Chen Xiaomu could say a few common words to the veteran, he saw the bearded Wang Wu running towards this side quickly behind the soldier named Zhuzi. From a long distance away, he clasped his fists and It was a salute, and it looked like he was really happy!
Chen Xiaomu smiled curiously: "Captain Wang, have you encountered something happy?"
Wang Wu couldn't hide the joy on his face and said happily: "Your Highness, yesterday you said in front of Dewei Tower that you would transfer me to you again. Unexpectedly, at noon, the princess sent someone to inform you that from today From now on I will be transferred under your command!"
"Just this little thing, makes you so happy?" Chen Xiaomu asked strangely.
"Hey! Your Highness, you don't know!" Wang Wu couldn't help but pour bitter tears, "You gave me the position of captain of the aviation team. I don't even know what I do, but the princess won't let me change it. Now the Princess Guards These people simply changed their name and called me Captain Kankong, not to mention how aggrieved they were!"
Chen Xiaomu couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "That's because they are short-sighted. Let me tell you now, your aviation team will definitely be the most powerful unit in all the military in the future, and it will also be a unit that is difficult to defeat!"
"How does it compare with Qin's silver armored army and the Tatar cavalry?" Wang Wu asked in surprise.
Chen Xiaomu said confidently: "When the time comes, I'm afraid they won't even be worthy of carrying your shoes!"
"So powerful?" Wang Wu touched his head, somewhat disbelieving.
Chen Xiaomu raised a finger and said, "Within one year, you will become a veritable aviation captain!"
Wang Wu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and said naively: "Okay, I will listen to your highness."
After asking Wang Wu, Chen Xiaomu learned that the current Princess Guards had less than 300 people in total. Many of the more than 1,000 Princess Guards who escorted Su Xingran to Chen State to get married two months ago were temporarily transferred by the imperial court from the Royal Forest Army and the Forbidden Army. The purpose of joining the Princess Guards was to protect Su Xingran from reaching Chen State absolutely safely. After Tianquan County returned the capital to the new capital, Ximensong and Zhong Xin led their troops back to the original organization. The entire Princess Guards was still nominally led by veteran Zhong Xin. However, in fact, the person leading the Princess Guards was Lu Yi, who was recommended to the court by Su Xingran, and the court also recognized that Chen Xiaomu had originally appointed Lu Yi as the head of the regiment, and also gave him a seventh-grade official rank.
