Liu Xiangnan looked at Chen Xiaobei and said earnestly, "You also know about the imperial edict. Let's find a way to persuade Her Royal Highness. This imperial edict will be enough. I'm afraid that if it causes a big disturbance, all our efforts will be wasted."
Chen Xiaobei and Liu Rumei looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Dad, then you and Imperial Master Fang continue to discuss it. Brother Xiaobei and I will leave first..."
Liu Rumei said hello, waved to Uncle Bang, who was waiting over there, and quickly left Fang Zheng's mansion.
Not far away, there was a tea room next to her. Liu Rumei walked in and ordered a pot of tea, "Uncle Lao Bang, thank you for your hard work. Take a sip of tea to moisten your throat. I will take you to a restaurant for dinner later."
Uncle Lao Bang was so flattered that he handed over his hand, "Thank you, Miss Liu. There's no need to eat. I can just make do with whatever I have on the roadside."
Liu Rumei picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Uncle Lao Bang, "Uncle Lao Bang, I have a gracious favor."
"Miss Liu, please tell me, as long as I can do it, I will never give up!"
Liu Rumei shook her head, "Uncle Bang, you don't need to make such a big sacrifice. That's it. My father is going to lead troops to the border soon. I would like to ask you to go with the army in case there is a war with the Great Earth Kingdom and someone is killed. It’s poisonous, so it’s better to treat it in time.”
After listening to Liu Rumei's words, Chen Xiaobei was moved. Liu Rumei still cared about her father. Of course, thinking about it, this was not only for her own father, but also for all the soldiers of Dacang Kingdom.
After listening to Liu Rumei's words, Uncle Laobang didn't hesitate at all. He patted his chest and said, "Thanks to Miss Liu for looking up to me, I can't help but carry Laobang Sun."
"Miss Liu, please rest assured. As long as Mr. Liu calls you, I can go out with the army without any complaints!"
"It's all in good hands. My father is going on an expedition tomorrow. I'll arrange for you to stay at the inn tonight. By the way, if you need any more emergency supplies, just make a list and I'll send someone to buy them for you."
Uncle Laobang thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "Then I will make a list later and purchase more daily medicines, and Miss Laoliu will be there!"
Liu Rumei waved to the shopkeeper to bring pens, inks, paper and inkstones. Uncle Lao Bang made a long list. Chen Xiaobei directly reached out and took it, "Rumei, you can arrange for Uncle Lao Bang to stay in a while. This purchase matter, Just leave it to me.”
Liu Rumei was not polite, smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Chen Xiaobei returned to his residence with this long list, and immediately found Liu Tie and Liu Ce, and handed the list to them, "The Marquis will go on an expedition tomorrow. These medicinal materials can be bought more and more." The more the better, they must be taken away tomorrow.”
Liu Tie and Liu Ce took it, agreed, and asked the people to go out with the money. Chen Xiaobei packed up again and rushed to the palace to see Princess Xiao Jingfeng.
Seeing him coming, Chunhua and Qiuyue came forward to report the progress, pointing to a large copper basin at the door, which contained half a basin of fishy blood.
"For the record, Prince Consort, all the blood on Her Royal Highness's leg has been squeezed out. The swelling has subsided now, and Her Highness's complexion is also a little better."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief and sighed secretly in his heart. He really has a specialization in the art. The arrival of Uncle Bang made everything better again.
Looking at the sleeping Princess Zhaoning, Chen Xiaobei felt a lot more relieved. The princess's breathing became much more even, her condition was getting better, and he could sleep well tonight.
Early the next morning. The sky was dim, and the north gate of Wannian City slowly opened. Liu Xiangnan led his generals, plus Uncle Laobang and others, and quietly left Wannian City. The reason why Liu Xiangnan chose to go out quietly was because he still didn't want to fight in Wannian City. There was too much noise during the Chinese New Year.
Chen Xiaobei and Liu Rumei stood side by side on the tower, watching Liu Xiangnan go away, tears still flowed from Liu Rumei's eyes.
Chen Xiaobei saw her like this, stepped forward and gently stopped her shoulders, and said softly, "Rumei, don't worry, our father is just going to guard the border. I believe that after he goes, the country will not be affected either." Dare to act rashly!"
"Yes, I hope so. I really don't want to fight anymore." Liu Rumei sighed with emotion.
The two people walked down from the top of the city and told the soldiers guarding the city to keep it a secret as much as possible and not to publicize the departure of Lord Liu Hou.
Of course, Chen Xiaobei also knew that this kind of thing could not be kept secret for too long, as long as it did not disturb the people as much as possible.
When the two returned to the Prince Consort's Mansion, it was already dark.
Xiao Qing brought someone to bring breakfast to the two of them, and while they were eating, they discussed whether to visit the princess after breakfast.
Before the meal was finished, Liu Ce hurried in, "Miss, uncle, there is a girl named Xiaohua at the door, saying she is the maid of the hero Shen Ziyan!"
"Oh, it came so fast. It only took two or three days for the princess to summon them, and now it's here!"
As Chen Xiaobei spoke, he motioned for Liu Ce to bring Xiao Hua in. With little effort, the maid Xiao Hua came in in a hurry. She was breathing heavily as she walked. It was obvious that she must have come here in a hurry. This breath The child is still out of breath.
"Xiaohua has met Brother Chen and Sister Liu!"
As soon as she called herself brother or sister, the feeling of closeness came instantly. Liu Rumei stood up, took Xiaohua's hand and sat down on the chair next to her, "Xiaohua, take a breath first and drink a glass of water. What's the matter? Speak slowly!"
Xiaohua took the water glass, drank a few big gulps, raised her sleeves and wiped her lips, and then said, "Sister Ziyan asked me to deliver a message to you. They have already gone to the princess's palace."
As she spoke, Xiaohua took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to Liu Xiaobei.
Chen Xiaobei took the letter and opened it. He saw a short sentence on it, "He spoke informally and seemed to have something on his mind, but he didn't find anything unusual. After entering the city, he said he was going to visit old friends and he separated from us."
If there is no beginning or end, only Chen Xiaobei knows that this is about Jiang Shang Piao.
No exception?
After entering the city, I just talked about visiting old friends. This is abnormal.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei felt a wave of fear in his heart. If Jiang Shangpiao was really related to the assassination of Xiao An, he would really be aiding the evildoer.
Of course, this is just my guess. The top priority is to confront Jiang Shangpiao and ask him everything.
After a brief thought, Chen Xiaobei made up his mind and had to use some means, otherwise Jiang Shangpiao would not tell the truth.
He took Liu Rumei and hurried to the princess's palace to meet the Lotus Leader and Shen Ziyan.
When he arrived at the palace, he saw the Lotus Cult Master roaring at Bai Han. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with Bai Han's protection.
Seeing Chen Xiaobei coming, Bai Han seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and quickly waved, "Chen Xiaobei, you came just in time."
Seeing that Chen Xiaobei was coming, the Lotus Leader immediately turned his anger on Chen Xiaobei.
