The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 230
Xi Gongjue led [-] iron cavalry and Ye Anran to drive non-stop for three days, and finally arrived at the junction of the two countries, which is also the largest city in Tianmu Kingdom besides Bianjing - Pingcheng.

"See the prince and concubine, thousands of years old." As soon as Xigongjue's war horse entered Pingcheng, thousands of people warmly greeted him. Perhaps in the eyes of Tianmu people, Xigongjue was no longer a person, but a murderer. The machine, with him here, Pingcheng will definitely not fall, so they showed absolute enthusiasm and sincerity to welcome their savior.

Seeing this situation, Jue Xigong frowned slightly: "Who asked someone to arrange it? Why are you so motivating people?" Obviously Jue Xigong didn't want to be so high-profile.

"My subordinates have asked about Master Hui's words, and they said that the people in Pingcheng did it spontaneously, and no one arranged it." Xiu Lei said in a low voice.

"Oh." Nishinomiya nodded and said nothing, but led the army into the city.

Seeing that it was already evening, Xi Gongjue turned around and ordered: "It's getting late, rest in Pingcheng tonight, and leave early tomorrow morning to set up camp thirty miles away."

"Yes." The response in unison was spectacular, and it could be said that there was an unanimous response.

The magistrate of Pingcheng was afraid of neglecting the prince and the prince, so he gave up his mansion and planned to give Xi Gongjue a rest, but Xigongjue refused. He just found a small inn and stayed with Ye Anran again .

His idea is very simple, this time he is here to fight, not to eat, drink and have fun, there is no need to be so high-profile.

"Anran, I'll take you upstairs to rest, okay?" After perfecting, Nishinomiya asked gently.

"En." Ye Anran nodded, got up and followed Xi Gongjue to the upstairs of the inn.

Xi Gongjue's people have booked this inn, Xiu Lei and other main soldiers are resting downstairs and are on call at any time.

Ye Anran and Nishinomiya walked into the guest room, and Nishinomiya raised his hand and poured a cup of hot tea: "Here, drink some tea to warm up your body first. The climate at the border is not as dry and cold as Bianjing. I'm afraid you won't be used to it."

"I'm not that delicate?" Ye Anran laughed dumbly, Nishinomiya seemed to be taking care of her carefully like a child.

"Hehe, I... don't know how to take care of people, so I always think wildly, afraid that I won't take good care of them." Xi Gongjue was a little embarrassed.

"No, you did a good job."

"Then you rest first, I'm going out." Nishinomiya smiled and turned to leave.

"Wait a moment."

"Is there anything else I need?" Jue Nishinomiya turned around suspiciously.

"No, I want to ask you...won't you stay and rest together?" Ye Anran actually had no other meaning, but after all, it was outside, no different than the palace, inside the palace, in order not to embarrass her, Xi Gongjue never entered Chunxiao Pavilion Stay overnight, but if you sleep in a separate room outside of me, I'm afraid people will gossip.

"Ah, no, I'm going to survey the enemy's camp overnight and deploy the marching map. You should go to bed early." Xi Gongjue explained.

"My lord, can I...can I ask you something?" Although Ye Anran didn't want to say it, she was always worried, so after much deliberation, it's better to say it.

"Okay, tell me." Xi Gongjue seemed to be responsive to her request.

"I know that the prince has always been very good at fighting, if you meet him in the future, it is a critical moment of life and death, can you be merciful and let him go?" Ye Anran said sincerely.

Jue Xigong's body froze, he didn't expect that Ye Anran was concerned about this at this time, she only cared about the safety of the man named Dugu Jialuo, but never thought about whether she was in danger.

But he just kept these words in his heart and didn't say them, so he nodded, forced a smile and said, "Okay."

"Thank you." Ye Anran breathed a sigh of relief, what Nishinomiyajue promised him should be done, right?
She was thinking like this, but she didn't pay attention to the expression on Jue Nishimiya's face at the moment. The man turned around with disappointment in his eyes, and even the back of him leaving was so lonely.

He was thinking, maybe An Ran will never fall in love with him in this life, maybe he will never find a woman who truly loves him in this life.

But since Anran is his concubine, he will still take care of her and treat her well, because he admires Ye Anran's courage to be persistent in love, and a woman who is desperate for love is worthy of respect and love.

next morning
Xi Gongjue refused the retention of the people of Pingcheng, left Pingcheng where there was plenty of food and clothing, and led the cavalry to camp in the wilderness 35 miles away. This place is only [-] miles away from the territorial city occupied by Liuyun Kingdom. Whether it's close or not, it's just right for a fight.

The people in Pingcheng discussed and admired this iron-blooded prince sincerely. After all, he was only 20 years old, but he had already created one myth after another for Tianmu Kingdom.

Passerby A: "King Rui'an really lives up to his reputation. He is riding a black horse and wearing a black armor. He is really majestic. I think the enemy will be terrified just by seeing him."

Passer-by B: "Isn't it? I used to hear how powerful King Rui'an is, but I still didn't believe it, but seeing this battle today, this prince must not be a vegetarian.

Passer-by C: "My lord is a good man. You didn't see it. How can you keep him? He is still not in the city. Maybe he was afraid of disturbing the lives of the people, so he withdrew and camped for thirty miles. What a man."

Passerby A: "That's natural. If he didn't have two brushes, he wouldn't be able to become King Ryan with great military exploits at a young age. You should know that he is only 20 years old. comparable to the law."

Passer-by C: "Isn't it? I heard that the prince brought the princess here this time. Isn't that princess one of the two beauties in Jiangnan of our Tianmu Kingdom? It's a pity that the princess didn't get off the carriage, so we have no chance to meet."

Passer-by A: "What are you thinking? How could the prince's concubine show up to us? Ha, I am satisfied when I see the prince. They are both men. It's a world of difference. King Rui'an is a myth."

Passer-by B: "Yes, I heard that the magistrate gave up his mansion to the prince to rest last night, but the prince refused, and instead found an unremarkable inn to stay overnight, and then left this morning without making a fuss. Yes, what a good prince."

Passer-by C: "I also think that the previous rumors, such as murderous demons, are all rumors. I think the reason why our Tianmu Kingdom is safe and peaceful is not only the emperor's good governance, but also the fact that King Rui'an has a lot of credit here. Isn't he the only one fighting?"

The common people are still talking about it, but the army of Jue Nishinomiya has gone far...

Thirty miles away, a mighty military tent rose out of thin air. The [-] iron cavalry of Xi Gongjue and the few [-] infantry who were left behind at the border and were killed by Liuyun Kingdom converged here.

Everyone thought that when King Rui'an arrived, he would prepare an attack first and kill Liuyun Kingdom by surprise. However, they were disappointed in the end. Jue Xigong didn't say anything.

Just ask everyone to rest where they are and wait for orders...

In the commander's camp, Ye Anran worked diligently to make the bed and tidy up some salutes. Jue Xigong called Xiu Lei and ordered: "Xiu Lei, you go and inform the soldiers of the three armies. In the evening, we will hold a celebration banquet for everyone."

"What? Celebration banquet? Master, did you hear me right?" Xiu Lei was a little at a loss.

"No, go ahead and do as I tell you." Said Nishinomiya expressionlessly.

"Ah, good." Xiu Lei never dared to disobey the prince's order. After receiving the order, he just walked and wondered what kind of routine the prince was going this time. There were only nearly [-] troops left, and then the leading city fell again. In such an embarrassing situation, the Lord even said that there would be a celebration banquet. I really don't understand.

Then Xiu Lei came to the three-army position: "Soldiers, listen carefully, the prince ordered that there will be a celebration banquet tonight, please prepare it."

As soon as this statement came out, the audience was in an uproar...

"What? A celebration banquet?" All the soldiers were stunned.

"How are we all beaten up? How can we have a celebration banquet? Lieutenant General Xiu, did you make a mistake?" Someone in the army shouted and questioned.

"There is no mistake. This is the order of the prince. Everyone, stop arguing. If anyone has any doubts, go to the prince and talk to me. It has nothing to do with me." Xiu Lei was also very upset, so he moved out of the prince. In a word, no one dares to question anything.

at dusk
A bonfire was lit in the barracks, and Jue Nishinomiya really held a celebration banquet. Although the celebration banquet was weird, no one dared to say anything because it was the prince's order.

The three armies gather together, there is a lot of barbecue and wine, but it seems that there is a lack of atmosphere. After all, there is no merit, how can we celebrate?
Xi Gongjue sat in the center in a black shirt, and Ye Anran wore a long white dress with a white sheer gauze, her beautiful appearance looming.

At this moment, Jue Nishinomiya picked up a glass of wine and got up and said, "I'm sorry, brothers, I'm late. You have resisted here for so long, and it's hard to come by. Today's celebration banquet is just for you, Dugu Jialuo It is indeed brave and resourceful, but it is very rare that Pingcheng has not fallen, today, we don't think about anything, just talk and drink."

Seeing that Jue Xigong had spoken, everyone was not worried about anything. The ten thousand soldiers were a little moved, and some even started to drink with Jue Xigong with tears in their eyes.

"Since it's a celebration banquet, everyone can eat, drink, and play freely, and don't stick to small details." Xi Gongjue ordered.

"Yes, my lord." The loud voices shouted in unison, and then everyone lost the twitching just now, since the lord has already said so, what's there to pretend, they should eat and drink.

Ye Anran said softly: "My lord, why don't my concubine play the piano for everyone?"

It's not that Ye Anran wants to show off, and it's not that she wants to be high-profile, she just thinks that at this time, she should be consistent with her husband and do something for the soldiers at the border.

Nishi Gongjue was a little hesitant, after all he didn't want Ye Anran to show his face: "Anran, your health is not good, can you?"

"It's okay, it's just a song." Ye Anran smiled through the veil, and Nishinomiya suddenly felt that she was even more irresistible with the veil on.

All the soldiers were looking forward to the sound of Wang Hao's piano. They had heard that Wang Hao was a famous beauty and talented woman in Tianmu Kingdom. They were very excited to see her today.

"En, good." Seeing that Ye Anran persisted, and Nishinomiya no longer refused, he nodded.

Afterwards, Ye Anran took the guqin from Xiu Lei's hand and placed it in front of her. With light waves of her fingers, she played the song "Border Snow" eloquently.

The song that was supposed to be sad, turned into a man's blood under Ye Anran's fingertips like a magic sound, which made many people feel excited, and felt that it was a particularly honorable thing to defend their home and country.

This is the second time Xigongjue saw her playing the piano. The last time was when Xigongjue and the emperor went to the teahouse as guests. At that time, they didn't know that the teahouse was opened by Ye Anran, and they thought it was Qin Fengliu who played the piano. Only later did he know everything. An Ran has superb piano skills, but she never shows off. She only enjoys playing the piano when she thinks she wants to.

Tens of thousands of soldiers listened quietly to the beautiful sound of the zither in such a dark night, as if they were possessed by a demon.

In an instant, after playing the song, Ye Anran stopped the last note and put his hands on the strings...

Applause resounded through the barracks like thunder...

"Okay, it's really good, it's beautiful, it's really beautiful." Someone in the army who knew the melody couldn't help but shouted.

Jue Nishinomiya took Ye Anran's hand gently, and said with a smile: "It's really nice, in the future... can you play it to me often?"

Ye Anran's cheeks blushed suddenly...
