Xiao Qinghuan

Jiang Xiaohan still has things to do.

He spends most of these days around Yan Qing, and the news outside is not as well informed as before.But now that Yan is sober, he can settle down to deal with some affairs.

Seeing him going out, the boy rushed up to meet him, blinking at him.The boy has always been well-behaved, and he never cries or makes trouble. When he has no work to do, he squats under the stone steps at the door, waiting for orders.These days, serving tea and water has helped Jiang Xiaohan a little, so Jiang Xiaohan has a good impression of him.

"He's awake." Jiang Xiaohan said, "You can go in and see him, but you can't wake him up."

The boy was overjoyed, and responded crisply: "Yes!"

Jiang Xiaohan tightened the silver buckle on his wrist, walked to the courtyard with strides, and untied the jade lion's reins.

Seeing his posture, the boy tentatively asked, "Is your lord going out?"

"Yes." Jiang Xiaohan got on the horse. The Jade Lion hadn't run for a long time, and was already impatient. It turned around twice in a wild manner. Jiang Xiaohan gave a low cry, and the Jade Lion reluctantly calmed down.

"I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back in two hours at most." Jiang Xiaohan ordered: "Senior Ren will come to see Yan Qing at the second quarter, so please be quiet and don't wake him up. If there is anything, wait until I come back." .”

The boy nodded sharply: "Yes!"

Jiang Xiaohan pulled the reins, and the jade lion immediately spread its hooves and ran away.

He is going to the Divine Guard camp.

Most of the plague has been resolved, and the Divine Guard Battalion no longer needs to go into the village every day to control the situation as it did in the beginning. Now, only a small team of three or five people is called out every day to patrol the village and help out.

But Jiang Xiaohan won't let the Shenwei camp stay idle like this forever. The elite of the emperor's guards naturally have to do something that suits their status.

So it was necessary for Jiang Xiaohan to meet Xie Jue.

The Shenwei Battalion was stationed ten miles outside the village, but it took only a quarter of an hour to arrive. The guards of the Shenwei Battalion recognized Jiang Xiaohan, so they didn't stop him.

"Where's Xie Jue?" Jiang Xiaohan dismounted at the door and threw the reins to the guard at the door.

"It's in the tent." The young guard grabbed the jade lion in a hurry, and pointed back: "My lord, you go along, the innermost tent is there."

In summer, the weather is hot, and most of the curtains of the tents are hung high. Jiang Xiaohan walked all the way, but found that Xie Jue's tent was tightly covered, and it felt stuffy just by looking at it.

Jiang Xiaohan felt something was wrong, so he didn't reach out rashly, but stood still at the door and coughed: "Xie Jue?"

There was a bang from inside the tent, like the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and then there was a grinding sound, and the sound of stumbling footsteps approached.

"Hey, here we come." Xie Jue said as he lifted the door curtain: "Ming Yuan? Why are you here?"

Jiang Xiaohan glanced at him, the light armor on Xie Jue's body was worn crookedly, and there was even a piece of armor tucked inside a pair of shoulder armor, God knows how he would not feel panicked.

He glanced into the tent again, only to find a person who shouldn't be here.

"Master Cheng?" Jiang Xiaohan was a little surprised.

Cheng Yuan tugged at the neckline with his hands, and nodded at him in embarrassment: "Master Jiang."

With a sullen expression on his face and wrinkled clothes, he hurriedly nodded to Jiang Xiaohan, then opened the tent and hurried away. Xie Jue didn't have time to say anything, so he hurriedly walked a few steps and chased him out, yelling and looking for him outside. The guard sent the man back.

Jiang Xiaohan sat down behind the table without seeing anyone else, and poured himself a bowl of salt water from the copper pot beside him. Seeing Xie Jue returning dejectedly, he raised his eyebrows maliciously: "Did I come by accident?"

"What...it's nothing." Xie Jue was young and couldn't hide things in his heart, and all emotions were clearly written on his face.

Jiang Xiaohan made a long sound meaningfully: "Oh~"

"Oh, are you busy?" Xie Jue couldn't hold back, he hesitated and asked, "What exactly are you here for?"

Jiang Xiaohan sipped his saliva to moisten his throat, and then said: "It's a matter here, and I will go back to Pingjiang City in a few days. The Shenwei Battalion can't always be here. I'll come to you to discuss this matter."

"There is nothing negotiable." Xie Jue pulled a low stool and sat down, lowered his head to adjust the crooked light armor on his body: "Anyway, Wen Zui has already sent someone back to the capital, and there is no need to hide in the Shenwei Camp. Keep it in mind, as many soldiers as possible enter the city."

He thought simply, but Jiang Xiaohan had other plans in mind.

Although Wen Zui was not unjustly dismounted, this incident caught him by surprise. The two factions in Beijing and China were secretly competing with each other. With Wen Zui's actions, the originally evenly matched situation instantly tilted.Although Jiang Xiaohan had plans to cook Wen Zui, such a big fanfare was not what Jiang Xiaohan wanted to see.

In any case, Ning Zongyuan has not yet shown a preference for any prince, so for Jiang Xiaohan, the original equal situation is the best scene.Now that Jiang Xiaohan broke this balance with his own hands, he had to make a fuss about He Liuyun and leave a way out, so as to ensure that the two parties were on par until Ning Zongyuan made a decision.

When he inspected the two rivers this time, he was caught off guard in order to protect him, and even the Shenwei Battalion traveled separately from him.But this time Wen Zui came like this, plus the matter of the plague, Shenwei Ying couldn't hide it, He Liuyun must have become suspicious, even if he went to Anqing Mansion now, he might not be able to find out anything.

Jiang Xiaohan has always been unwilling to do useless work, so he might as well just take advantage of the fact that there is no one in Pingjiang Mansion to stay for the time being, and wait for the other side to show his favor.

But if he just stays put, I'm afraid it won't be him, Jiang Xiaohan.

He originally wanted to keep Wei Shen and let Xie Jue secretly lead people into Anqing, but when the words came to his lips, Jiang Xiaohan suddenly felt uneasy.

That premonition was inexplicable, but very clear, as if something would happen to Xie Jue this time.

"Let's pack up and go back to Pingjiang in the next few days." Jiang Xiaohan turned around again when the words came to his lips: "I will send a letter to Wei Shen, asking him to sneak into Pingjiang mansion with the Shenwei battalion first, and wait for me. News. As for you, you should stay in Pingjiang for the time being."

"Anything is fine." Xie Jue said nonchalantly, "The soldier talisman is in your hands, you can just decide."

He has never worried about everything, because of the surname "Xie", anyone in the capital who sees him will respectfully call him "little general", and Ning Zongyuan is also willing to pamper him, and has nothing to do except to support the scene during the New Year and holidays His worries.

Because of Xie Liuyi, although Jiang Xiaohan didn't appear to be very close to the Xie family on the surface, he had to take care of Xie Jue a little more after all.

Jiang Xiaohan changed the subject: "Xie Jue, what are your plans for the future?"

"What's the plan?" Xie Jue looked at him suspiciously: "They will make trouble in Beijing if they like, Xie's army is loyal to the king, and I will be loyal to whoever your Majesty chooses as the prince. What do you want me to do."

"That's right." Jiang Xiaohan sighed, not planning to entangle him on this topic, he drank half a bowl of salt water, stood up and walked out: "You can take the Shenweiying back to the city tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, you order It's fine for 20 people to stay, let Wei Shen take all the rest... Remember, quietly, enter the city in batches, don't ask He Liuyun to find out."

Xie Jue stood up and made a gesture to see him off, but upon hearing that, he couldn't help but ask, "What about you?"

"I'll stay here with Ah Qing for a few days before I go back." Jiang Xiaohan walked to the door, and seemed to remember something, and stood still and turned around: "Xie Jue, if you have any letters from the frontier these days, if it is convenient, please Let me know as well."

Xie Jue was puzzled: "What happened?"

"Not yet." Jiang Xiaohan raised his hand to lift the door curtain, pursed his lips, and whispered to himself: "...I hope I think too much."
