Chapter 334: Undercurrents: Does the Ninth Prince want to be a hero and save the beauty?
"Let anyone enter and leave my room as they please. Guards on duty tonight, go down and receive a hundred military sticks."
The guards outside looked at Chu Bai, who was falsely spreading Xiao Yan's words, and looked at each other in confusion.
They also didn't expect that the ninth prince of the Chiyan Kingdom would deceive them and enter openly on the pretext that his master wanted a woman.
They originally wanted to report it, but the Ninth Prince said that their master was still a virgin and had finally figured out how to be a man. If he knew that you all knew about this, wouldn't it be embarrassing for him? They thought about it and thought it made sense, so they didn't stop him. But who knew...
The guards knew they had failed in their duty and accepted their punishment.
The guards on duty were replaced again.
Xiao Yan supported himself on the bathtub with his clean, slender hands and stood up.
The water droplets rolled down, he stepped out of the bathtub, picked up a set of pure black underwear and put it on, then walked out of the bathroom, looking at Chu Bai who was sitting at the table sipping tea leisurely, his face full of frost.
"Are you very free?"
"Even though you're not free, you still have to take time to come and care about your allies' health, right? It's not good for a man to hold back all the time."
They both knew that if the other got dirty, they would never stand a chance.
Xiao Yan looked at him for a while, then smiled and replied:
"It's really not good for men to hold it in."
After that, Xiao Yan did not continue with this topic. He lazily wiped his hair with a towel and said indifferently:
"Tell me! What's the matter?"
Chu Jun wouldn't be so bored as to care about his health at this point.
Seeing that Xiao Yan didn't continue to dwell on what happened just now, Chu Bai felt a little strange.
He just killed someone in a rage, so how could he be let off so easily?
The woman was originally washed clean by the governor of Dongling County and sent to his bed to curry favor with him. She used seductive perfume on him right from the start. Chu Bai has never been a good person, and because of his experience with pedophiles, he is even more disgusted with such things. If he were a woman like this in Chiyan, he would have chopped her to pieces.
Giving it to Xiao Yan, even if he can't really lose his virginity, he will feel happy if he can make him unhappy.
Moreover, it would be great if Xiao Yan had any feelings for that beautiful girl.
Seeing that Chu Bai didn't say anything, Xiao Yan looked at him again.
Chu Bai didn't care what he was thinking anymore. He took out the prepared map, unfolded it, pointed at the route on it, looked at Xiao Yan, and said seriously:
"Since we have formed an alliance to fight against Beijue together, and now Emperor Rong En is leading a million troops to attack Beiyang Pass, and Beijue Yuan Liang Rong Jun is dead, with the ability of the Third Prince, the existing troops plus the reinforcements brought by Marquis Xuanping, it should not be a problem for me to borrow another 100,000 troops to attack Beijue directly."
Xiao Yan had no expression on his face, he just said:
"so what?"
"I will lead 100,000 troops to cross Yugu Mountain and support Beiyang Pass!"
Want to be a hero and save the beauty?
Xiao Yan tapped the table lightly, looked at the map, and pondered for a moment. His mind was in a state of confusion, but his expression remained calm. He replied:
"Okay, then let's do as the Ninth Prince says."
Xiao Yan was too easy to talk tonight, and Chu Bai felt something was wrong for some reason.
"Does the Third Prince agree now?"
Xiao Yan looked at him with just the right amount of bewilderment:
"Why can't we agree to this? The sooner we arrive at Beiyang Pass, the sooner we can ease the situation there. In the final analysis, we don't want anything to happen to her, right?"
Xiao Yan was so generous that Chu Bai was speechless. He looked at him for a long while, but couldn't find any flaws. He stood up, bowed and said:
"It is Chu who has been judging others by his own standards."
Chu Bai had little contact with Xiao Yan and had not yet gained a deep understanding of his true nature.
Of course, it was not because he trusted Xiao Yan so much, but because he believed that the person Lin Zhaoyue liked, although he had character flaws, would never be a real villain.
Xiao Wei just tapped the table lightly and said nothing.
After discussing the war, Chu Bai took out the prepared alliance agreement and handed it to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yun took a quick look and after seeing that there was no problem, he signed and took the seal to stamp it. From then on, Anguo and Chiyanguo had truly reached an alliance.
After the discussion, Xiao Yan called the servant in to wipe his hair.
Xiao Yan was so tired that he fell asleep on the recliner while the servant was twisting his hair.
After the servant wrung out his hair, he hesitated for a while before waking him up:
"Master, your hair is dry."
Xiao Yan was awakened, stood up, and walked straight towards the bed. Thinking of what had just happened, Xiao Yan instructed:
"Don't let anyone disturb me."
After saying that, he soon fell asleep again.
The servant has served Xiao Yan for so many years, but this is the first time he sees his master so tired.
However, after fighting for so many days, I haven't had a good rest. Even a body made of iron can't stand it.
Looking at the sleeping Xiao Yun, the servant folded the towel and went to close the doors, windows and bathroom door.
When closing the bathroom door, he saw the broken window. Afraid of disturbing Xiao Yan's rest, he did not call anyone to fix it, but used a curtain to block the cold wind.
As soon as he left Xiao Yun's bedroom, the servant saw Feng Xin walking towards him, followed by Pei Yanli and Xuanping Hou.
On the second day after Pei Yanli joined the war, he was sent by Xiao Yun to investigate the situation of reinforcements and to eliminate the remnants of the previous dynasty - Liu Bojian, the eldest son of Marquis Xuanping.
The East Border is nearly half the distance from the capital, and the reinforcements have not arrived yet. This must be Liu Bojian's doing.
In order to allow his son to gain military merit, Marquis Xuanping also took him with him to the eastern border.
The latest news Liu Bojian had received about Lin Yanzhi was that more than a month ago, Lin Yanzhi had instigated the Lin family army to rebel and wanted to march straight to Kyoto, so he asked him to make sure the news from the northern border was cut off and not let it reach His Majesty's ears.
After the Third Prince came out, in addition to supporting the East Border, it was as if he had suddenly opened his eyes to heaven. He marked out all the secret stakes buried by the remnants of the previous dynasty in Anguo, and sent messages to the centers of the Lianji Pavilion in various places through Feiying Letter. In the name of the Third Prince, he summoned the power of the government to carry out a mopping-up operation. All communication routes of the remnants of the previous dynasty were cut off by them.
If His Majesty had not led the army to support the northern border, Liu Bojian would not have known that Lin Yanzhi's plan had failed.
After learning of Lin Yanzhi's failure, Liu Bojian wrote to Lin Yanzhi many times, but all of them were intercepted on the way.
Not getting a response, he could only keep his troops in place for the time being and followed Marquis Xuanping to the eastern border. Along the way, he built roadblocks and brainwashed Marquis Xuanping, saying that this was the opportunity to get rid of the third prince. As long as the third prince was dead, the eldest prince would be able to sit firmly on the throne. Marquis Xuanping was persuaded and slowed down the process.
It was not until Pei Yanli arrived and exposed Liu Bojian's identity that Marquis Xuanping learned the truth. Although he killed Liu Bojian with his own hands, the truth was too much of a blow to him and he has not recovered yet.
Xuanping Hou was wearing a dark red robe and holding a black wooden box. As a powerful official of Anguo and a sworn brother of the current emperor and Duke Lin, he had always been able to plan and handle everything with ease. But now...
His usually straight back seemed to be broken and suddenly became hunched. In less than half a month, his black hair, which had always been well-maintained, turned into many silver strands, his eyes were swollen, and there were a few lines at the corners of his eyes.
His eyes, which were usually bright and lively, now looked dull, as if he had suffered a severe blow.
The servant saw them, bowed and said:
"The master just went to bed and said that no one is allowed to disturb us. Lord Marquis, Guard Feng, and Master Pei, please come back tomorrow!"
Feng Xin has been following Xiao Yan these days. He knows how hard and tired his master is, so he said:
"My Lord, Master Pei, you have been traveling so hard. Let the master take a good rest first. If there is anything, we can discuss it tomorrow!"
Pei Yanli nodded and patted Feng Xin on the shoulder:
"You are the one who has worked hard, Lord. Let's discuss everything tomorrow!"
Marquis Xuanping seemed to have heard it, but also seemed not to have heard it.
He carried the black box to Xiao Yan's bedroom, lifted his robe and knelt down.
"Hou..."
Feng Xin wanted to say something, but Pei Yanli pulled him aside and said:
"Let him kneel! This way he will feel better."
