After another half an hour, Lin Xiangyu's crying gradually became quieter, and then all the beauties heard Zhu Qiyu call out: "Lingxi, come in."
Xiao Lingxi heard the words and hurriedly walked in, only to see Lin Xiangyu lying there naked and limp, sobbing intermittently.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Lingxi boldly asked: "Your Highness, did you hit your sister?"
Zhu Qiyu was speechless when he heard this, smiled and teased: "You girl, who are you looking down on? I am a good man, how can I hit a woman.
The princess was exhausted, so she went to prepare the fragrant soup. I had to personally help the princess bathe and change clothes. "
Lingxi hurriedly responded and was about to turn around and leave when he saw Qianxue standing at the door of the third floor. Then Zhu Qiyu replied: "Your Highness, my servant has prepared the fragrant soup just now. You can just bring your sister to the first floor to wash it." .”
Zhu Qiyu glanced at Qianxue in surprise and praised in his heart: This little girl is not very old, but she has really sharp eyesight.
So Zhu Qiyu picked up Lin Xiangyu and went downstairs proudly. Afterwards, he ordered Xiao Lingxi: "Lingxi, hang the bed sheet on the screen on the first floor and let people see it. Let it dry tomorrow and then fold the bed sheet properly. This is the first evidence of the princess begging for mercy. , I want to collect it."
When Lin Xiangyu heard this, her face turned red with embarrassment, she lowered her head and said angrily: "How could my husband do this? How embarrassing! How will I behave in the future?"
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "I deserve it, I made you look down on me, now I'll slap you in the face."
After Zhu Qiyu said that, he carried the beauty downstairs. All the beauties who were listening to the bed looked at the two of them with suspicion.
Seeing this, Lin Xiangyu was so ashamed that she was like an ostrich. She buried her head in Zhu Qiyu's arms as tenderly as she could, and let everyone talk about it, pretending not to hear.
However, Xiao Lingxi changed the bed sheets and took a closer look, only to see a large area of water stains on them. She was really confused as to what the special skills of her highness were.
After being stunned for a long time, Xiao Lingxi didn't dare to think or ask any more questions. She turned around and went downstairs, and actually hung the sheets on the screen at the entrance on the first floor.
While Zhu Qiyu was waiting for Lin Xiangyu to take a bath, he proudly watched a group of beauties standing in front of the screen, pointing and commenting.
Lin Xiangyu's pretty face was as red as a cooked shrimp. Zhu Qiyu pinched the beauty's chin and asked with a smile: "Is the princess convinced? Do you still dare to look down on me?"
Lin Xiangyu lowered her head and said with a smile: "The slave family was surrendered by the king today. The slave family surrenders."
Zhu Qiyu leaned into the beauty's ear and asked secretly: "How does it feel to be pointed and judged by a group of people? Is it exciting? Do you like it?"
When Lin Xiangyu heard this, her pretty face turned red to her ears. She could only nod her head and whispered back: "It's exciting and shameful, but the slave family likes it."
When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he felt very happy, and a sense of conquest arose spontaneously. The relationship between the two also quietly heated up amidst the fight.
After dinner, we had no words all night.
Early the next morning, everyone got up early, put their packed luggage on the carriage, and prepared to set off.
Zhu Qiyu ignored these mundane things and just told Lin Xiangyu: "Princess, please load the few boxes sent by Wang Shan into the car. Don't damage them. I have great use for those things."
Lin Xiangyu nodded in agreement.
Zhu Qiyu whispered in the beauty's ear again: "It's easy to put away the sheets last night. They are my collection of art. Don't throw them away."
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for a reply, Zhu Qiyu turned around and went to the front hall, leaving only the red-faced beauty cursing quietly there.
…
After everyone had packed up, they set off back north. When they left the north gate of Baoding Prefecture, they saw a dark mass of soldiers, already neatly arrayed in formation in the open space.
As the saying goes, once there are more than ten thousand people, there is no limit. Zhu Qiyu was also a little confused when he saw this situation.
However, not long after, Zhao Xuan and Xu Ying had already come forward to salute.
Zhu Qiyu asked curiously: "Commander Zhao, Mr. Xu, how many people are in front of you?"
Zhao Xuan replied: "Your Highness, since you gave these two armies the names of Yingzhou Left Guard and Yingzhou Right Guard respectively, the army of Daning Dusi has become more enthusiastic in signing up.
Chen and others selected the best, and finally got two full guards, each with 5,600 men. If Your Highness feels there are too many people, we can eliminate some more on site. "
Zhu Qiyu smiled and waved his hand: "No need. At this time, the capital is in danger and the wind is trembling. But the soldiers are still willing to follow me to defend the capital and kill the enemy to serve the country. This is such loyalty and bravery. What kind of passion. If we continue to cut down and streamline now, won't it? It chilled the hearts of the soldiers."
Zhao Xuan and others quickly thanked him, and Zhu Qiyu stopped being polite and immediately ordered the two guards to divide into the front army and the rear army, protect his chariots and horses in the middle, and rush northward.
Five days later, Zhu Qiyu finally arrived outside Beijing with an army of 10,000.
Xu Tong and Gu Zhong, the temporary commanders of the two guards, came to Zhu Qiyu and asked for instructions: "Your Highness, where will the army camp tonight?"
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Do you dare to face Ye Xian's army and lead the troops to charge?"
When Xu Tong and Gu Zhong heard this, they hurriedly performed a military salute with a serious look on their faces, and then shouted back: "Dare, I will wait for you to be the vanguard."
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Okay, okay, okay! Then we will camp outside Deshengmen tonight, and tomorrow we will start building fortifications and training to prepare for war."
When you come first, you will take the lead outside Desheng Gate. When the time comes, I will come to the city in person to supervise the battle. "
Xu Tong and others thanked them quickly. Seeing the general response from everyone, Zhu Qiyu added: "The princess will also come to Deshengmen in person to cheer for you."
When everyone heard this, they immediately became excited, cheering loudly and thanking the princess endlessly.
Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly and said in his heart that you are too realistic. It makes sense to be beautiful together, right?
Lin Xiangyu saw this and smiled at Xu Tong and others: "Okay, okay, stop making noise. Your Highness is tired, hurry up and urge everyone to set up camp and bury the pot to make rice."
When everyone heard this, they all smiled and bowed and left.
Lin Xiangyu then gently pulled Zhu Qiyu's sleeves.
Zhu Qiyu knew that Lin Xiangyu wanted to get back on the carriage with him and do what they loved. He took the beauty's hand and said with a smile: "It's just the afternoon, the sky is still bright, and you are not shy. Let's go to inspect the military camp first, and then do business in the evening."
"we?"
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Even for us, you have to go with me to inspect the military camp. And you have to greet the soldiers and be extremely caring."
Lin Xiangyu heard this and said curiously: "The Nu family is just a little woman. Why should she inspect the military camp? Your Highness really believes that Xu Tong and the others are making fun of her, so she thinks that the Nu family can interfere with the army."
Zhu Qiyu stopped his smile and said with a serious face: "The capital is a place that eats people. Do you know how many people will want to do something to you, overtly or covertly, when you enter the capital?
I have to deal with major military and political matters, so I can't be with you all the time. If you don't win over people's hearts now and control a bodyguard who are willing to protect you with all their heart, then you won't know how you will die. "
After that, Zhu Qiyu dragged Lin Xiangyu to inspect the military camp.
However, Hu Hu, the old minister of the Ministry of Rites, returned to Beijing with Zhu Qiyu. At this time, he had entered Bunren Hall and met the Queen Mother.
