The magistrate is not a fool.
Except for one person, there is no other person in the world who can make Huhou treat him with such respect.
Thinking of this, he suddenly panicked and quickly dressed in his official uniform before kneeling down.
Xiao Yuan was keenly aware of it, glanced at him, and stopped him: "It doesn't have to be like this, just don't do it."
"Ah? Yes, yes." Upon hearing this, the county magistrate was stunned for a moment, and at the same time he became more and more sure of his guess.
So he hurriedly bowed, stepped forward, and said wisely: "Young master, you are here to patrol and be safe. It's a small person's luck. It's a small person's luck."
"Okay, you go about your business." Xiao Yuan interrupted him.
"Then... I'll go hold a banquet now," the magistrate said tentatively.
"Don't bother. Just pretend that this incident never happened. Curing your jurisdiction is the most important thing." Xiao Yuandao.
"But this..." The county magistrate wanted to curry favor and seek an official career.
Xiao Yuan looked slightly unhappy.
There is no doubt about his majesty. With just one look, the county magistrate was startled. He bent back and said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I will remember the young master's teachings and be self-restrained and diligent."
"You don't have to follow."
Xiao Yuan said something and said hello to Xu Hu and others:
"let's go."
"yes!"
The group left here.
But the crowd of passers-by still didn’t disperse.
You know, in that era, the county magistrate was the supreme existence in the eyes of the local people.
Now he was so groveling to that young master, and people couldn't help but start whispering:
"Who is this young master? He's not from Ping'an County..."
"Looking at the attitude of the county magistrate, he has a lot of background..."
The Ping An County Magistrate bowed and shrank his shoulders and watched Xiao Yuan leave. As soon as he calmed down, a county guard couldn't help but came up to him and asked curiously: "Sir, who was that young master just now?"
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask! Is that someone you can know about?" The county magistrate glared.
"Ah? Yes, yes..." The guard was also startled.
Xiao Yuan walked side by side with King Xuan on the street, and said with a smile: "We say goodbye this time, I don't know when I can see Sister Wang again."
"Brother Wang can visit Xuan Kingdom as a guest at any time." King Xuan also smiled.
"Let's see after the war. This battle will be difficult." Xiao Yuan sighed softly.
"Brother Wang, isn't he very confident?" King Xuan asked with a smile and glanced at him.
Xiao Yuan shook his head slightly and stopped talking about this issue, but chatted with her about something else.
The two of them were walking in front. From a distance, they looked like lovers. They often laughed and whispered, as if they were intimate.
Xu Hu and Xie Hongling, who were following behind, couldn't help but look at each other.
"The monarch's will is unpredictable. He had to shout and kill before, but now..." Xu Hu looked at Xie Hongling and asked.
"Don't ask me, how would I know!" Xie Hongling was annoyed.
"Can't you have a better attitude?" Xu Hu was slightly dissatisfied.
"That depends on the person."
"What's the meaning?"
"Means nothing."
"baffling."
"You're the one who's confused!"
"Tch, tigress."
"Who are you scolding?"
"Did I curse?"
"You! Shameless person!"
"Who are you calling shameless!?"
"Say it to anyone who is shameless!"
At this point in the conversation, both of them were very angry, and the news spread to the front.
Xiao Yuan and King Xuan first turned their heads and glanced back, then looked at each other again.
Two days later, inside Yiyang City.
Xiao Yuan had already returned and personally summoned the county governor Zhang Gongyou.
The latter was standing below with a slight bow, reporting the situation.
"Your Majesty, the grain, grass and weapons dispatched by the Prime Minister have been escorted here by the Civil Guards. Together with some granaries in Yiyang, the first batch of grain and grass can be used by the King for several months of war."
"In addition, Wei Chen has handed over to the military grain officer."
As soon as Xiao Yuan goes on an expedition, Liu Yuzhi will be the chief promotion officer, who will also temporarily lead the government.
In the counties that the supply line passes through, the county chiefs must naturally provide full assistance. Yiyang is the top priority of the supply line.
Zhang Gongyou is definitely a good official. After reporting the general situation, he said with a little worry:
"But Your Majesty, the most important thing about Yiyang is transportation. If this city is attacked, the consequences will be disastrous. Therefore, I suggest that it is best to deploy heavy troops to guard it."
"Master Zhang, are you worried about Xuan Jun?" Xiao Yuan asked.
Zhang Gongyou said truthfully: "Yes, if the king leaves and Xuanjun cuts my rear line, what should I do?"
"Don't worry Xuanjun, they will withdraw soon." Xiao Yuan replied.
"This..." Zhang Gongyou was puzzled.
Xiao Yuan added: "But what you said is not unreasonable. In order to prevent the Chu army from suddenly heading north, it is better to station some troops in Yiyang and Puyang."
"Chu Army?" Zhang Gongyou was even more puzzled: "But Your Majesty, hasn't Puyang been attacked by the Xuan Army?"
"It's not important." Xiao Yuan changed the topic and said: "I don't have too many troops left in Yiyang. If that happens, the first thing Mr. Zhang has to do is to stick to Yiyang. The second thing is to send a letter to the Prime Minister."
"Yes, please bear this in mind." Zhang Gongyou responded respectfully.
Yiyang is not far from Shanyuguan. As long as it is not captured by lightning, the troops left behind in the Qin State will send troops out of Shanyuguan to quickly provide support.
And Xiao Yuan said that Xuan Jun would retreat, naturally because he and King Xuan had made a secret alliance.
This secret alliance is unknown to other countries.
King Xuan may play tricks verbally, but she will never break the alliance.
This queen's intelligence and methods are definitely not inferior to any princes in the world.
On the other side, the Xuanjun camp.
After King Xuan came back, he was no different than Xiao Yuan. Naturally, he was greeted by a group of generals who asked him about his welfare, worried and concerned.
People gathered around her, and many of the generals were frightened and couldn't stop talking.
Wang Su even said: "Your Majesty, this is too dangerous. If you make any mistakes, what will I, Xuan Guo, do?"
"Okay, okay, you don't have to worry anymore, I'm fine." King Xuan smiled.
Wang Su asked again curiously: "But, Your Majesty, I have searched for the edge of the cliff, but I don't know what happened under the cliff?"
When he mentioned this, King Xuan thought of the past and how he could not let go of Xiao Yuan and how he showed a little woman mentality in front of him. He couldn't help but feel his face getting slightly hot, and he quickly excused himself.
"Fortunately, God protects my king, and there is no danger..."
Wang Su couldn't help but said something, and then asked: "Then your Majesty, our army is now..."
"Withdraw."
"ah?"
Wang Su didn't react at all: "Your Majesty, I deeply agree with the strategy of using Liang to control Qin. If you withdraw your troops at this time, the King of Qin will attack Liang in full force."
"As for the war in the north, I will discuss it with Mr. Wang later. It is not appropriate for our troops to stay here now. Let's return to the country first."
After King Xuan finished speaking, he looked around again and directly issued an order: "Immediately send an order to all the troops in the army to pack up their luggage, sort out their baggage, and retreat south to the country. This is the king's order."
