I, the queen and the father, start with a deer as a horse

Chapter 134
"Understood, sir."

The steward responded, turned and left.

Yang Yuhuan huddled under the quilt, poked her head out, her immature face was red, and asked curiously:
"Master Xiang, has His Majesty agreed to marry Princess Zhou?"

Fang Xiu tapped her little head lightly, and said angrily, "Let children take care of adults' affairs!"

Yang Yuhuan curled her lips and whispered, "I'm not a child, I've grown up a lot."

Fang Xiuquan presumed he didn't understand what she meant, and warned: "Don't think about it all day long, take good care of your illness, and come to see you in the evening."

After speaking, he touched her little head, turned and left.

"Master Xiang is coming tonight?"

"So happy!"

Yang Yuhuan's eyes were shining brightly, and she was agitated, hugging the quilt, rolling around on the bed, and it took a while to regain her composure.

Although she knew in her heart that Master Xiang just said casually, even if he came, he would just look at her and would not do anything.

Even so, she was still looking forward to it, her beautiful eyes were watery.

Ben remembered to practice the hole flute.

But he was afraid of being seen by Fang Xiu, so after thinking about it, he decided to hide under the quilt.

Picking up the "Nurturing Qi Technique" on the bedside, he continued to read.

the other side.

Fang Xiu left the room, called Shangguan Haitang, and asked, "Can you find out who Li Yaoyue is in the mission?"

Shangguan Haitang in a white shirt stood there, holding a folding fan in his hand, and replied:
"She lives in the south courtyard of Yingchun Garden, in the third room. She rarely appears on weekdays. When she appears, she is dressed as a maid."

As he spoke, he took out a portrait from his bosom, presented it to Fang Xiu, and said, "This is her portrait."

Fang Xiu stretched out his hand to take it, and took a rough look.

With an oval face, phoenix eyes, and thin lips, she looks like a person with a cold temperament.

"Send more people and keep an eye on her!"

Fang Xiu put away the portrait casually, looked at Shangguan Haitang, and ordered.

Shangguan Haitang responded:
"Yes, Master!"

After hesitating for a moment, he said again:

"Princess Zhou Guochang is restless, she has only been in Chang'an for three days, and she has started to investigate your plan, as well as the life experience of the low-ranking people.

Would you like to give her some trouble? "

Fang Xiu said calmly, "It's just a softshell, don't worry about her, as long as you don't leave Chang'an City, let her do what she wants!"

"Yes, Master!"

Shangguan Haitang held the folding fan, clasped his fists in both hands, and saluted.

Fang Xiu glanced at her and asked curiously, "What are you doing with your folding fan this season?"

Shangguan Haitang explained: "I am used to the humble job, even in winter."

Fang Xiu nodded, without saying anything, he waved his hands and said, "Go down."

"Yes!"

Shangguan Haitang saluted, turned and left.

Fang Xiu looked at her back, and the portrait of Li Yaoyue could not help appearing in his mind.

sighed:
"It doesn't look like a fool, why would you think of throwing yourself into a trap?"

Think so.

Fang Xiu shook his head, left her alone, turned and went back to the room, and continued with his plan.

Chang'an City, Yingchun Garden.

This is the post house where Dagan received foreign envoys.

Although it is not comparable to the mansion of the princes and noble relatives, it is still considered magnificent.

now.

South Garden of Yingchun Garden.

in a certain room.

Princess Zhou Guochang sat on the grand master's chair, holding a map of the three kingdoms of Qian, Zhou, and Wu in her hand, and watched quietly.

His eyes were full of indifference, his expression neither happy nor sad.

Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the door.

The maid's voice followed.

"Your Highness, this slave has something to report."

Li Yaoyue didn't look up, and said calmly: "Come in."

The maid pushed open the door, walked in, saluted, and said respectfully:

"Your Highness, Prime Minister Nagan has rejected your invitation."

Li Yaoyue seemed to have expected this a long time ago, her expression did not change at all, she still looked at the map, and said indifferently:

"understood."

The maid paused, then said:

"You asked your slave to check the sweet potatoes, and your servant checked them. Up to now, none of the overseas fan merchants has heard of this crop."

Hear this.

Li Yaoyue's eyes flickered, she raised her eyes to look at the maid, and said lightly:
"Check again."

"Yes! Your Highness!"

The maid responded and continued:
"Also, the servant girl found out that there are three training grounds for the new army of the Qian Kingdom. The nearest one is in the northern suburbs, called the northern suburbs school grounds. People are not prohibited from approaching."

Li Yaoyue looked up at the maid, with a cold expression, and said: "Get ready, I'm going to take a look."

The maid hurriedly saluted:

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After half an hour.

Dressed plainly, Li Yaoyue came to the school grounds in the northern suburbs.

A pair of phoenix eyes stared at the new army who was training not far away, with neither happy nor sad expression.

In the school yard.

The soldiers in uniforms stood in a row, blindfolded, kicking at a neat pace, and kept moving forward.

In front of them, not far away, there was a deep ditch in which sharpened wooden sticks were inserted.

Anyone who falls into it will surely die!
even so.

These soldiers continued to move forward, and their movements were uniform, just like one person!
Blindfolding the soldiers and letting them move forward is a training method that the Tiger Army also has.

The purpose is to exercise their courage and obedience.

In the invisible situation, the fear in the soldiers' hearts will be continuously magnified.

Especially knowing that there is a trap ahead, many people stopped in place without taking a few steps, not daring to move again.

There are only a handful of people who can persevere until the end.

Generally speaking, it is extremely difficult for ordinary soldiers to go halfway through this kind of training at the beginning.

But these soldiers who had not been recruited for a long time in front of them were able to keep going, and no one was left behind.

This surprised the maid on the side.

As time goes by.

The soldiers were getting closer and closer to the ditch covered with spikes.

Only three steps away, you will fall into it.

Even so, they still did not slow down and continued to move forward at the same speed.

Li Yaoyue's side.

Seeing this, the maid frowned slightly, thinking: I'm about to fall, why don't I stop?
Think so.

I saw the soldiers take another step.

Only two steps away!

Then, another step was taken.

Just one step away!
The soldiers were flying with half of their feet in the air, and as long as they fell, they would fall into the ditch.

In the nick of time.

A majestic voice sounded in vain.

"stop!"

When hundreds of soldiers heard the sound, they stopped abruptly, with half of their feet hanging in the air, motionless.

Behind Li Yaoyue, the maid saw this scene, her pupils shrank slightly, and her face showed surprise.

"Stopped at the last minute."

"It stopped at the last minute."

"They had to trust each other to do this!"

The maid expressed such emotion in her heart.

at this time.

Suddenly there was a crackling sound in the school grounds in the northern suburbs!

boom!
boom!
boom!
A series of fireworks bloomed around the school grounds, making deafening noises.

Half of the soldiers' feet were still hanging in the air, and each of them seemed to be still, motionless.

After a while.

The noise gradually died down.

The majestic voice sounded again.

"retreat!"

next second.

The soldiers took a step back in unison, stopped in place, and moved in unison.

"Finish!"

"Next group!"

When the soldiers heard the order, they all took off the cloth covering their eyes, lined up, turned and left.

Immediately afterwards, another group of blindfolded soldiers stood not far from the ditch and marched forward.

The maid, seeing this scene, could no longer restrain the shock in her heart, opened her eyes wide, and opened her mouth slightly.

A word came to her mind involuntarily, making her speechless for a long time.

"Forbidden!"

If she remembers correctly, it has only been two months since the formation of the new army of the Gan country.

It's unbelievable to be able to train to this level in two months!
"The newly recruited recruits, even if they train every day, shouldn't be able to reach this level?"

"Unless they don't practice weapons on weekdays, they only practice formation!"

"But how is this possible?"

Thinking of this, the maid's eyes searched the school grounds, but after searching for a long time, she didn't find a single weapon!
"Could it be that they really don't practice weapons?"

"If you put all your energy into this kind of training, it's not impossible to implement the order and ban in two months, it's just"

"What's the point of doing this?"

"What's the use of a group of soldiers who don't know how to use weapons on the battlefield?"

Such doubts arose in the maid's heart, and she subconsciously looked at the eldest princess, wanting to say something.

However, seeing that calm face.

He swallowed back what he wanted to say and remained silent.

aside.

Li Yaoyue stood where she was, with a pair of phoenix eyes, looking at the soldiers who were training.

There was no expression on his face, but he was looking forward to meeting Fang Xiu more and more in his heart.

In her eyes, there are too many mysterious and interesting secrets about Fang Xiu, which are worth exploring for her.

"Fang Xiu."

Li Yaoyue's eyes flickered, she stopped observing, turned around and left, and said in a cold voice:

"Go home."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The maid responded and followed her.

The two walked side by side.

Did not go for a while.

Li Yaoyue seemed to have noticed something, and stopped slowly, frowning slightly.

Seeing this, the maid was puzzled and asked, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

Li Yaoyue glanced at her, and asked calmly: "How long has that person been with you?"

The maid was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously looked behind her, and she saw a middle-aged woman in common clothes.

If I remember correctly.

When she came here just now, she followed behind.

Stopping for a stick of incense in the school grounds, she actually followed behind.

The maid's eyes narrowed, and she instantly realized that someone was following her!

"The servant is negligent, the servant deserves to die."

The maid showed guilt and lowered her voice.

Li Yaoyue glanced at her, remained silent for a long time, made a decision, and said slowly: "Follow me to Xiangguo Mansion."
