"Bao'er, eat more, it will help you grow! Chi'er is not capable of leading an army. Fortunately, I have my Seventeenth Brother here, staying on the city wall every day! Otherwise, my old bones would not be able to bear it."

Seeing Princess Ning glaring at Prince Ning, Xu smiled and pulled Princess Ning's hand and said.

"Fourth sister-in-law, you are flattering him again."

Princess Ning was very respectful to Xu.

After being reminded by Zhang Xin last time, King Ning immediately sent people to investigate to the west.

My goodness! The army is approaching, has passed Xining and is heading straight for Beijing.

She originally thought that after being left behind to garrison and eating and drinking for free for so long, her man could finally be of some use.

But there really isn't.

When Xu heard that a large army from the Western Regions was coming to attack the city, she was more excited than anyone else.

As soon as Timur's army arrived, Xu put on a full set of armor and went up to the city wall to patrol.

Although the armor looked shiny, it was not new and showed obvious signs of fighting.

Before the enemy could settle down, Xu took out a long bow and fired a series of rockets to set the flag of Timur's army on fire. The spreading fire burned most of the tents that had just been set up.

There was immediate chaos beneath the city wall.

Those who ran out of the tent, old and young, as well as cattle, sheep, etc., were all crying loudly.

Xu immediately lost interest, threw the bow in her hand to Prince Ning who had arrived behind her, waved her hand and went back to her residence.

Ning Wang's wife was not present, but when Ning Wang recounted the story, his blood boiled. Zhen Zhen was truly the daughter of a general, and was extremely free and easy.

"Seventeenth brother is already gold, why does he need to be covered?"

Xu smiled and gave Princess Ning a cold look.

"that is!!!"

Ning Wang interface.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Zhu Gaochi laughed.

Zhang Xin didn't say anything, just watched everyone bickering from the sidelines. When everyone put down their chopsticks, she waved at Qian Er who had just finished drinking the ginger soup and came back:

"Tell the chefs in the palace to wash and cut the radishes and cabbages they brought here, and bring them all up to cook. People on the wall and outside the city can take turns to drink a bowl of hot soup. Starting tomorrow, several people on the city walls will have a big soup. Use old ginger as the base, and add mutton offal and mutton bones. There aren't many people in our city, so everyone should be well."

"Yes, Princess. I'll go right away!"

"Don't run, you'll fall!"

"Yes, Crown Princess!"

Princess Ning saw it all and expressed her feelings to Xu.

"Xin'er is obviously the youngest among this group of people, but she is the most mature!"

"Xin'er is kind and thoughtful. It's not like you haven't been through her acting like a spoiled brat before. You're old enough!"

"Fourth sister-in-law, what should I do? I'm so jealous! How can you be so lovely!"

"Oh, you can die as you please, I have to live well and enjoy my family happiness!"

"Ah, the fourth sister-in-law is not kind!"

"Hahaha--"

After eating and drinking, the group of people chatted about everything. Then, Prince Ning was left to guard the city wall, and everyone went back to Prince Yan's Palace.

After carrying the two little boys who had fallen asleep into Princess Ning's car, he watched the guards drive away.

The fourth watch drum has already sounded.

Zhu Gaochi was yawning as he entered the room, and he was so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyes.

My work and rest schedule has been too regular in recent years, and I can’t stand staying up late.

But before falling into a sweet dream, he still gave one word of advice:

"Wife, I will teach you archery later, okay?"

"Why did you think of this?"

"I saw your eyes light up when you saw your mother wearing armor and shooting arrows."

"Yes, good. Thank you, Prince."

"You're so polite, how about riding a horse? Do you want to learn? I can't ride a horse, but you can ask Qian'er to teach you."

"it is good."

"Then remember to have someone prepare durable clothes. Riding a horse is hard work..."

"okay, got it."

"daughter in law--"

"Ok?"

"ZZZZZ——"

Zhu Gaochi fell asleep quickly, but Zhang Xin was too sleepy to fall asleep.

She also needed to sort this out. Everything was ahead of schedule, and everything was much easier than she had imagined.

My father-in-law knew Timur's ambition back then.

Timur went on the expedition in the winter of the second year of the Yongle reign, and his father-in-law had issued a curfew to the border guards at the beginning of the year.

Zhang Xin was not sure through what channel she learned about it.

I don’t know if it’s because she changed the direction of the small world, but some of the originally clear past events have begun to become blurry in my mind.

It seemed that she had not yet been canonized as the Crown Princess at that time.

My father-in-law hesitated for a long time on the issue of appointing him as the crown prince.

Zhu Gaochi appeared calm and composed on the surface, saying that whoever his father asked would be the leader.

But I still long for it in my heart.

At that time, she was just an ordinary little woman in the backyard, and her husband was her god.

She just tried her best to serve her father-in-law and mother-in-law as best as she could, and held Zhu Zhanji in her arms every day to show her filial piety to them.

He hoped to please his mother-in-law and father-in-law and thus overlook some of Zhu Gaochi's shortcomings.

She has no time and doesn't pay much attention to what's happening outside.

Later, according to his son, his father-in-law compared Timur to the Turkic Khan who forced Emperor Taizong of Tang to sign the Wei River Alliance, and believed that the other party was a powerful enemy.

Therefore, the entire border defense arrangement can be said to have been done to perfection without any major publicity.

The person stationed in Xining at that time was Xining Hou Song Sheng.

He was a founding general of the Ming Dynasty, of the same generation as my great grandfather, and was over sixty years old.

He had fought in various places with his grandfather and made great achievements. He was stationed in Liangzhou four times, for more than 40 years, and defeated the invasions of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and countries in the Western Regions many times.

Zhang Xin didn't remember what kind of interactions she had with her father-in-law before.

But after my father-in-law ascended the throne, he canonized his two younger sisters-in-law as Princess Ancheng and Princess Xianning.

Then he married both of his sisters-in-law into the Song family at once.

This shows that Song Sheng is definitely one of the confidants that his father-in-law values ​​and trusts.
