Reborn to choose a husband, I will lead the deposed prince to seize my ex-husband’s kingdom

At midnight, Xu Minghuai and his cavalry completely left the capital, and arranged for his cavalry to rest and recuperate.

There is only one avenue to go from the capital to Wu'an County, but in addition to the avenue, there is also a mountain road that is feasible.

If he takes the high road, Xu Minghuai will face not only the ambush of people hiding in the dark, but also the difficulties of the city defenders from various counties.

If he chooses a mountain road, Xu Minghuai can indeed prevent a lot of pursuits by taking advantage of the terrain.

But the mountain road is rugged, so he can easily cross the mountain with his good skills. But if he takes three hundred cavalry to walk on the mountain road, it will take at least five more days.

Judging from the current wind direction in the capital, five days most likely means that heaven and man are separated.

Xu Minghuai didn't hesitate for long, he had already made a decision in his heart.

Sitting in front of the fire, he picked up the jug and took a sip of wine. Xu Minghuai thought of Xu Minglang.

The two of them are truly brothers.

When the risk is really in front of them, they will become the kind of people who gamble with their own safety in order to fill the gap of unknown risks.

When it comes to their families, they can take all kinds of risks themselves, but they absolutely cannot accept putting their families in danger.

After a short pause, Xu Minghuai led three hundred cavalry towards the right path.

After a cup of tea, the same three hundred cavalrymen also took a short rest here and headed directly towards the mountain road.

The people who had followed Xu Minghuai all the way from the capital were naturally unable to keep up with the pace of these marching and fighting men. When they caught up, they saw the backs of those three hundred men.

Without wandering around, all the secret guards headed towards the mountain road.

A secret whistle blew, and Xu Minghuai's whereabouts were directly transmitted back to the capital by carrier pigeons.

Xie Chongan looked at the latest news sent back by the secret guard and paced around the study.

Xu Minghuai's military tactics were strange. Taking the mountain road and then burying all the people who were ambushing and following him in the deep mountains and old forests was indeed more in line with Xu Minghuai's military tactics.

But if Xu Mingyue is added to the mix, Xie Chongan feels that Xu Minghuai shouldn't be so rational.

"Is there an opportunity to return to the main road halfway along the mountain road?"

He knelt down with his hands clasped in his hands and said, "My subordinates went ahead and found many mountain people, saying that they wanted to return to the main road. It would take longer than going straight to Wu'an County."

Xie Chongxin was still uneasy: "Disperse the forces, borrow troops from counties and counties, and set up ambushes in two places."

"Let Zheng Xingye guard the last place. If Xu Minghuai is really allowed to go back alive, Gu Ke will not be able to control the sword in his hand."

Rather than lose everything, Xie Chongan would rather take care of both directions at the same time, leaving Xu Minghuai with his head in a different place.

When the time comes, there will be only one Xu Minglang in the Duke's Mansion, who is very good at judging the situation, and everything will return to a state that makes Xie Chongan extremely happy.

After the secret guard who sent the message left, Xie Chongan looked at the small board and asked: "Xiao Fei, is there really no problem?"

Xie Chong'an didn't think that God would be so kind to him and would allow this world to have one more person who truly treats him.

Xiaobanzi replied calmly: "I have checked it repeatedly and there is no problem."

There was no repeated checking, Xiaobanzi just re-verified the previous information.

No strange information could be found when he was in Deshui. Xiaobanzi didn't think that he could find any difference if he stayed in the capital today.

What's more, a weak woman can really change the world?

What's more, Xiaobanzi has to do too many things with his own hands now, and such unimportant things shouldn't consume so much energy.

"Send a message to Qingyuan. The orphaned queen has made an appointment with Xu Mingyue to meet at Liu's Cloth Village."

Xie Chongan's eyebrows smoothed out, a faint smile appeared on his face, and his voice softened.

Xie Chongan, who had been tense for several days since waking up from the dream, walked out of the study, got on the carriage and headed towards Liu's Clothing Village.

The window was opened a crack, and the heat collided with the coolness inside the carriage, making Xie Chongan feel uncomfortable and subconsciously moved inside the carriage.

His hand fell on the car window, and his intention to close the window turned into pushing the car window out again, letting more surging heat envelope it.

Liu Fei held an oil-paper umbrella in one hand to block the sun above her head, and held a handkerchief in the other hand to wipe the sweat on her forehead. She walked towards the cloth shop with a vegetable basket hanging on her elbow.

Xie Chong'an looked at the fish jumping alive in the vegetable basket, and then he realized that he and Liu Fei had been together for so long, eating and drinking together most of the time.

On top of the most dangerous thing, eating, he never put up a defense against Liu Fei.

If Liu Fei was really someone else's pawn, Xie Chongan would have died a hundred times.

But Xie Chongan always couldn't restrain himself from wandering back and forth between belief and disbelief.

I believe it because Liu Fei used to treat him extremely well and even risked her life for him.

If you don't believe it, it's because Xie Chongan can't believe that there are actually people in this world who don't care about his power and interests, but simply want to be good to him.

The little boy opened the carriage door for Xie Chongan, then bowed and raised the parasol over Xie Chongan's head.

Xie Chongan, wearing a prince's robe, strode into the heat and entered Buzhuangzi's kitchen without any hindrance.

The firewood in the stove has been lit, and the rice has been steamed on the stove.

With her back to Xie Chongan, Liu Fei was picking up the carp quickly with her hands and feet. Smoke spread from the roof, and the warmth in front of her suppressed the summer heat.

Xie Chong'an's home began to take shape.

He stood at the door until Liu Fei killed the fish, then turned around from the chopping board with the fish and prepared to walk towards the well outside the house.

The sun was blocked by Xie Chongan walking towards her, and the backlight was so dazzling that Xie Chongan's face could not be seen clearly.

But Liu Fei was able to put every strand of Xie Chongan's hair where it should be.

Xie Chongan had not been to Liu Fei's place for nearly half a month. Before Xu Mingyue's wedding, Liu Fei knew that Xie Chongan could not get away.

Since Xie Chongan never came after Xu Mingyue's wedding, the meaning was enough for Liu Fei to savor.

But Liu Fei was not in a hurry. She continued to eat and drink as usual, and lived her life as if it were ordinary.

With a gentle look on her face, Liu Fei smiled and asked, "Why is Your Highness here today?"

Xie Chongan walked up to Liu Fei with two big strides and hugged Liu Fei in his arms regardless of Liu Fei's fishy hands.

His lips pressed against Liu Fei's neck, which was stained with sweat due to the heat, and Xie Chongan rubbed it gently for a while.

Ever since I woke up from the dream, my restless and hesitant heart has calmed down little by little.

Xie Chongan said: "Xiao Fei, it's great to have you here."

"Your Highness, I am dirty."

Liu Fei didn't break away from Xie Chongan's arms, she just reminded him gently.

Xie Chongan did not let go: "It's not dirty."

Liu Fei is the cleanest woman Xie Chongan has ever seen.

"Then I want to cook. How can I cook if you keep holding me like this?"

"Have you eaten yet? Shall I make your favorite squirrel fish?"

After receiving no answer from two consecutive questions, Liu Fei stopped asking.

She knew that Xie Chongan must have gone through something terrible that he couldn't talk to her about.

Now she just needs to stand there obediently and let Xie Chongan hold her.

"Xiao Fei, can you hug me and pat me?"

Liu Fei hesitated for a while, and finally put her fishy hands on Xie Chongan's back.

There were bits and pieces of bloody handprints left behind, and it was impossible to tell whether they were human blood or fish blood for a while.

Looking at it, it looked like Liu Fei's hand penetrated Xie Chongan's chest from his back and killed Xie Chongan.
