When Wei Rou heard Gu Xi's words, she was inevitably moved.

Even at this time, his first consideration is not his own safety, but her.

She suffered a crime when she first arrived in southern Xinjiang, but she still thought about her situation wholeheartedly.

The general, who has always been defiant and unstoppable, is now willing to be a prisoner for her.

Wei Rou felt sorry for him, took his hand and put it to her lips to kiss.

"I'm not afraid of whether they are against me, I'm only worried about your safety, don't do it next time."

Gu Xi's cold eyebrows softened a lot because of these words.

There was a low answering sound in the throat.

The two stayed in the house for a while.

Wei Rou brought up the business.

"In a few days, I will go to attend the succession ceremony of the saint. By then, I will be the saint of Southern Border. It should not be difficult to talk about borrowing soldiers."

Gu Xi smiled lightly.

"It's not urgent."

Wei Rou was a little surprised.

"Aren't you in a hurry? Now that the whole of Daqing is looking for you and me, we still have to resolve this matter as soon as possible."

Gu Xi hugged Wei Rou into his arms and explained: "You are pregnant, so don't worry about it. Even if I really want to touch the one in the palace, I should wait until you give birth. I don't want any side effects to arise in the middle." variables. Both you and the child will be safe."

Because of negligence before, Wei Rou was robbed by Qi Yu and almost hurt her life. This incident has always made Gu Xi very sad, and he will not let Wei Rou fall into danger again.

Wei Rou numbly rubbed against his arms.

Then she remembered what Mo Wu had said, and looked up at him.

"But the current Southern Border is different from the past. If you want to borrow troops, the Southern Border probably won't be able to send many soldiers."

Just from the scenes they saw when they stepped into the southern border, the people of southern border lived and worked in peace and contentment. Even if they really had elite soldiers, there were probably not many of them, so how could they talk about contending with Emperor Daqing?

Perhaps Gu Xi could rely on his former prestige to be popular in the army and have many followers, but compared with the soldiers of Daqing, it is still a drop in the bucket.

Wei Rou knew that Gu Xi would not fight uncertain battles, so she came to the southern border to borrow troops.

Just why is it southern Xinjiang?

Wei Rou was puzzled, and asked out the doubts in her heart.

Gu Xi raised his hand to caress her lower abdomen, with gentle eyes.

"Rou'er misunderstood, there are very few people in Southern Border, so naturally there are not many elite soldiers."

"then you……"

"What I want to borrow is not an ordinary soldier."

Wei Rou was taken aback.

Not an ordinary soldier, that can't be...

Wei Rou seemed to have thought of something, she sat up abruptly, and looked at Gu Xi seriously.

"I heard from my mother before that Nanjiang is good at witches and Gu, and has the ability to control all things. In fact, what you want to borrow is not a soldier, but a person who can control all things?"

Gu Xi smiled and nodded.

"Rou'er was right. It was only after I came here that I realized that my trip seemed to be in vain."

"why?"

Gu Xi lowered his head slowly, and kissed the corner of Wei Rou's mouth.

"Because the person I want to find is by my side."

Wei Rou was stunned.

"You said the person you're looking for...is me?"

She shook her head again and again.

"It can't be me, I just mastered some beast language, but I can't control all things. Even the position of saintess was taken in a daze."

Gu Xi put his forehead against hers and sighed softly.

"But what should I do? What I'm looking for is the Saintess of Southern Border."

"..."

After a brief silence, Wei Rou spoke slowly.

"If I can really help you, then I... will do my best."
