He looked up and saw that the person coming was Zhou Quan.
Zhou Quan also waved to Xiaobei from afar.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei couldn't help but frowned. The prince's guard captain ran to Hetou Village, indicating that there was something important!
Come over to Zhou Quan and rein in your horse when you come to him. Unable to jump down, he couldn't wait to speak, "Brother Xiaobei, where is Miss Liu?"
Chen Xiaobei paused after hearing this, "Brother Zhou, Miss Liu is at home. What are you..."
Zhou Quan looked solemn and raised his fist to Chen Xiaobei again, "Brother, the situation is urgent. I have something important to see Miss Liu."
Having said this, Chen Xiaobei couldn't continue to ask any more questions, so he turned around and said, "Then let's go, I'll take you there."
Chen Xiaobei hurried to Liu Rumei's residence with Zhou Quanji.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she was watching Liu Rumei dancing with her sword.
Yes, after all, he is a martial arts practitioner, so he cannot lose his skills.
Seeing Chen Xiaobei coming, Liu Rumei made a gesture, stopped, and ran over with a smile, "Brother Xiaobei..."
Before he finished saying hello, he saw Zhou Quan standing at the gate. Liu Rumei was also stunned.
"Brother Zhou, why are you here?"
Zhou Quan looked solemn, stepped forward and clasped his fists, "Miss Liu, the prince is in trouble, please ask Miss Liu for help."
Upon hearing this, Liu Rumei raised her eyebrows and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with His Royal Highness?"
Zhou Quan let out a long sigh, "Forget it, Your Highness the Crown Prince. Based on the intelligence analysis we received, he thought that Zhu Meng was going to attack the Jizhou front line with the Chu Kingdom, so he dropped all the military supplies and troops."
"Unexpectedly, the Great Earth Kingdom played a trick and suddenly launched an attack from the northwest."
"That's the route they used to invade our country last time."
Liu Rumei was stunned when he heard this, "You mean they still followed the same route as last time?"
Zhou Quan looked solemn and said, "Yes, it's the same route as last time. We invaded three hundred miles in one day."
"And our General Du Bai led the troops on the northern front line of Jizhou, and Tian Wenhao also sent military supplies to Jizhou."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had no choice but to mobilize tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from the surrounding areas to fight in a hurry. The rest are still being mobilized."
Liu Rumei's expression became solemn, but after a while, she still sighed softly, "Brother Zhou, please go, I won't go."
"This," Zhou Quan was stunned for a moment, "Miss Liu, when the country is in crisis, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Rumei waved her hand again, "I'll say it again, let's go."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the house, and then said to Chen Xiaobei next to him, "Please help me see Brother Zhou off."
Watching Liu Rumei walk into the room, Zhou Quan stood there for a moment, a little at a loss.
Chen Xiaobei somewhat understood what Liu Rumei was thinking. The Liu family had worked hard for the Great Cang Kingdom for so many years, but in the end they were really cunning rabbits and dead lackeys, and sent their father to the temple.
He also married Liu Rumei to this small mountain village. Now that the country is in trouble, he thought of people coming over to ask someone to come out.
When people's hearts are cold, it is obviously impossible for Liu Rumei to go into battle and fight like before.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei bowed to Zhou Quan and said apologetically, "Brother Zhou, Rumei has been in a bad mood recently. I hope you can understand and talk to His Highness the Crown Prince when you get back."
"There will be a solution in the end. There are so many talents in Dacang, and there will always be someone who will step forward."
After listening to Chen Xiaobei's words, Zhou Quan was silent for a while, and he sighed, "I also know that it is a bit presumptuous to come to see Miss Liu, but at present, the enemy is so powerful that only Miss Liu has the prestige in the army..."
Zhou Quan said half of what he said, but Chen Xiaobei could guess it. Liu Xiangnan has led troops on the battlefield for many years and has a high prestige in the army. Even if he does not come forward, Liu Rumei can unite people's hearts.
But, having said that again, it has come to this point and there is no plan to invite Liu Xiangnan out of the temple. This is why Liu Rumei is unwilling to come forward.
But Chen Xiaobei couldn't say these words. He could only say insinuatingly, "Brother Zhou, with all due respect, there are so many civil and military people in the dynasty, they will always find a way."
"If there is really no other way, why not go to Xiangguo Temple and ask Lord Liu for advice."
Hearing this, Zhou Quan didn't speak at first, and he and Chen Xiaobei took a few steps forward. Then he sighed and lowered his voice and said, "Brother Xiaobei, to be honest, I also mentioned it before the prince sent troops, please The old Marquis came out, but for some reason, the Emperor just didn’t agree."
The emperor disagrees! After hearing this, Chen Xiaobei was silent for a while and he could probably guess what the emperor meant.
It was easy to find an excuse to drive Liu Xiangnan to Xiangguo. If the temple invited him out again, wouldn't it just mean that Dacang Kingdom couldn't live without the Liu family? Will Liu Xiangnan's prestige come back?
So this is the reason why Xiao An doesn't plan to use Liu Xiangnan.
"Brother Xiaobei, after I leave, please give me some advice."
"I will go back to the county seat to report the situation here to the prince and wait for the next instructions."
After sending Zhou Quan away, Chen Xiaobei hesitated here for a long time, and finally decided to go to Liu Rumei.
When he walked into the room, he saw Liu Rumei sitting there with her head bowed, saying nothing.
It can be seen from this that Liu Rumei is actually conflicted in her heart.
Seeing Chen Xiaobei come in, Liu Rumei opened her mouth, but said nothing and lowered her head.
Chen Xiaobei sat down on the chair, and Xiaoqing immediately brought tea.
Chen Xiaobei took a sip of tea, took a long breath, and then said tentatively, "Rumei, do you still want to go?"
Liu Rumei shook her head gently, "My heart is dead. I just think about the scene when I was studying with the prince when I was young. I feel that he is in danger, but I can't bear it."
"Yes, His Highness the Crown Prince has put himself in danger. If he makes any mistake, Dacang Kingdom may be..."
Chen Xiaobei stopped talking mid-sentence.
Liu Rumei obviously also knew what Chen Xiaobei meant. There was something wrong with the crown prince of Dacang Kingdom, and he had no successor.
But now they can't help thinking like this. Even if they are willing to rush to the front line, the first step is to get to Wannian City. It will take three days and three nights. Wannian City doesn't know how many days to go to the front line again.
Liu Rumei looked at Chen Xiaobei and shook her head again and said, "Those have nothing to do with us. We can just live peacefully in Hetou Village."
Chen Xiaobei didn't say anything more, but he knew very well that the prerequisite for living a peaceful life was to defeat the Great Earth Kingdom.
If the Great Earth Kingdom really destroyed the Great Cang Kingdom, it would probably be a catastrophe for the people.
But if I say this, it will be to persuade Liu Rumei to go out, which is not in line with my original intention. After all, from the bottom of my heart, I don't want Liu Rumei to go out again.
