Chapter 172 Don't Hurt Your Lover Brother

"This Huainan palace is also a legend. In the early years, he conquered the country of Xiao with the ancestor Yuan, and was named king of a different surname. He has made many achievements in following the dragon."

"Now the eldest son stays in the Huainan fiefdom, the second son is the governor of the waterway, and the third son even serves as the secretary of the household department."

Li Shichang paused, lowered his voice, and said, "These are all fat jobs."

After Shen Ruo heard this, she raised her eyebrows and didn't answer, she just thought to herself, it seems that the crown prince has found a good marriage for Shen Bingxin.

But that's the end of the gossip. After she got a general idea, she was not very interested. As long as Shen Bingxin didn't come to trouble her, she wouldn't be in the mood to deal with her.

Immediately, he took Qi'er to another clothing store to buy some new clothes. After thinking about it, he bought two more for Qiao Ran. She asked Li Shichang, but was rejected.

Li often mentioned it, why didn't she buy it for Xiao Chen?
She replied confidently at the time: "He is so rich and powerful, he wants to buy clothes by himself."

All these are her hard-earned money earned by her ability, so why should she cut her own leeks and pay them back?

Li Shichang: "..."

In the evening, Li Shichang originally thought that after his lord knew about this, it was time to overthrow the jar of jealousy, but he didn't expect to receive even more surprising news.

"The emperor ordered me to go out to wipe out the bandits in ten days. In the next few days, you should pay attention to safety in Beijing. I will leave the message. If there is any situation, I will send a message."

"Suppress bandits?"

Shen Ruo was also surprised, "Is this kind of thing worth calling you to?"

How can I say that Xiao Chen also made great military exploits, and being a prince, he asked him to work hard to suppress the bandits, not to mention the use of a sledgehammer, with his status, if he was injured, wouldn't it be more worthwhile?
"It's the second brother's fault." Xiao Chen explained lightly, "I presumably arrested many of his people for revenge."

Shen Ruo frowned suddenly: "Then you might be in danger along the way?"

Xiao Chen didn't speak, but it was obviously a tacit agreement.

"No." Shen Ruo gritted his teeth and said decisively, "I'll go with you."

She raised her hand to stop Xiao Chen's persuasion, "If he really dares to kill, it's always safe to have a doctor by his side."

"Besides, if I leave the capital with you, Ge Nanyi won't dare to mess around anymore. You don't have to worry about the situation in Beijing, right? No matter how dangerous those thieves are, they are no more dangerous than a Miao girl who secretly poisoned her." Bar?"

Xiao Chen lowered his eyes, thought for a long time, and then nodded in agreement: "Okay."

"But for this trip, you must listen to me and don't mess around."

Obviously the two of them had never gone out together, but he inexplicably urged like this.

Shen Ruo waved his hand, as if I heard you are so long-winded.

Seeing Xiao Chen felt even more helpless.

Ten days later, Xiao Chen was ready to leave the city with a thousand soldiers and horses.

Behind him was a carriage with Shen Ruo and Qi'er Li Shichang sitting in it. Qi'er heard that they were going out of Beijing, so he had to follow anyway, and even had a big fight with Xiao Chen, and they almost didn't fight. stand up.

In desperation, Shen Ruo had no choice but to smooth things over, helping to persuade Xiao Chen and bringing him along.

The group of people was mighty, and many people came to watch. Seeing this, they couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Is this going to war again?"

"No, this is to suppress bandits. I heard that they are a group of bandits from Pingjiang County. They are all heinous criminals who went up to the mountain to fight. It seems that they even killed an official. It's so arrogant."

"So that's the case. No wonder His Royal Highness King Jing is sent. With His Royal Highness here, all thieves and bandits will be killed!"

The people on the two sides talked a lot, and Shen Ruo in the carriage didn't listen to one, so he had the right to pass the boredom.

Suddenly, the army stopped, and she raised the curtain of the car suspiciously, and there was a group of welcoming teams coming from the opposite side, and the two sides just came to a confrontation.

This is really troublesome.

"It's Prince Huainan!"

Li Shichang, who was approaching next to her, suddenly made a sound. She heard it and took a closer look. There was a man in the front of the welcoming team, wearing a red wedding dress and riding a tall horse.

She also remembered that face, it was the man who followed Lin Lang around Shen Bingxin in Jinshan Temple.

She has very good eyesight now, even a hundred meters away, she can clearly see the expression on the other party's face.

Although he was smiling, he always gave her a fake feeling, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like he had married his sweetheart.

Shen Ruo frowned slightly, and asked, "Why did you get married so soon? The two of them have known each other for only two months."

Li Shichang shrugged: "Who knows, but I looked at the calendar when I went out today, and it is the wedding day, and after that, it will be half a year later, maybe I don't want to delay for too long."

The two parties were negotiating how to walk, and suddenly the situation broke out, and someone came to snatch the marriage: "Xin'er, I know you were forced, come with me!"

Lin Lang held a long sword and rushed straight into the wedding party. Xiao Chen frowned and asked Jiang Yuanjin, the bridegroom officer opposite, "Can you help me?"

Jiang Yuanjin, who had always been a little bored, lifted his spirits when he saw this situation. He raised a smile and said sincerely: "Thank you King Jing for your kindness. I have already prepared for the next official, so there is no need for the prince to worry about it."

As he said that, he saw several figures flying out of the surroundings. As the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat with four hands. Even young master Lin is superb in martial arts, and he is not an opponent of more than a dozen masters. Couldn't get close.

Lin Lang, who was suppressed to the ground, shouted towards the sedan chair without giving up: "Xin'er, don't marry him, he doesn't really love you, Xin'er!"

However, being cuckolded in person like this, Jiang Yuanjin still smiled on his face, but it deepened a little bit, and instead of letting people cover his mouth, he just made people shout like that, and turned to look at Xiao Chen with great interest: "My lord! Do you want to come to the mansion to drink two cups of wedding wine before leaving?"

Xiao Chen resisted looking at the perverted eyes, remained silent for two seconds, and flatly refused: "No need!"

He beckoned to the soldiers behind him, and the well-trained soldiers leaned aside in an instant, giving way to the Lord and saying, "Please."

Jiang Yuanjin cupped his hands: "Then it's better to be respectful than obedient to the lower officials. I wish the prince a successful suppression of the bandits and a triumphant return."

After finishing speaking, he pulled the reins and led the welcoming team away slowly.

Sitting in the carriage, Shen Ruo looked at the young master Lin who was being taken away together and was tied up like a clown patrolling the streets, feeling complicated.

No wonder Lin Lang lost in this love, not because he was not sincere enough, but because his rank was too low.

After the welcoming team left, the army set off again.

Unexpectedly, this scene was also seen by the two people sitting in the box of the nearby restaurant.

A pair of eyes stared at Shen Ruo's carriage for a long time, until they disappeared, then looked at another person in the room, and said slowly: "Remember, you must not hurt Xiao Chen, you understand?"

The man drank wine and laughed with him: "Alright, don't hurt your dear brother."

He raised his head and drank it down in one gulp, his wide sleeves covered the cold light in his eyes.
