Overwhelming mountains and rivers

On the afternoon of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Chu Xuanzhao, Xiao Ying and others entered the territory of Guanzhou.

"Well... Your Majesty the Emperor, Guanzhou is ahead." Until now, Xiao Ying is still not used to dealing with the emperor.

Chu Xuanzhao looked forward, "It's finally here."

Xiao Ying nodded, "Well, why are you in such a hurry? It will take a few days before Tuojia moves his troops. Besides, even if he moves his troops, he won't fight immediately."

Chu Xuanzhao glanced at him. Along the way, Xiao Ying was becoming more and more unpleasant, "Because I love the people like a son."

He really didn't know why at the beginning, he still felt that the person Qing Jun gave was a good one.

"Love the people like a son? Is there anyone who is an emperor who loves the people like a son?"

Chu Xuanzhao let out a heavy breath, "Xiao Ying, don't be too presumptuous. I am the emperor, just based on what you said, it is enough to die a hundred times. If it wasn't for your master, I would have killed you a long time ago. is you."

Xiao Ying's face remained unchanged, and his voice was calm, "If it wasn't for the Pavilion Master's face, I would have withdrawn a long time ago."

Chu Xuanzhao's face darkened, the most annoying thing about this person was that he was too similar to Shen Qingjun in some places.

Contradicting the court, there is no sound.

Shen Qingjun is like this, Chu Xuanzhao is immersed in it, Xiao Ying is like this, no matter how he looks at it, he finds it extremely annoying.

"Your master is such an individual, why does he have such a subordinate like you?"

Xiao Ying turned his head when he heard the sound, "Emperor, what do you mean? My master and I are clearly very close."

Just as Chu Xuanzhao wanted to reply, he suddenly felt that the words seemed strange, "...what did you say?"

Xiao Ying turned his eyes away, "It's nothing."

The golden light in Chu Xuanzhao's eyes flashed away, and even the horse neighed anxiously, Chu Xuanzhao said coldly, "What did you just say?!"

Xiao Ying frowned, slightly startled by the flashing murderous aura around him, then calmed down instantly, "Why are you crazy? I just said—"

Xiao Ying paused, "I said, I am the master's subordinate, no matter whether it is good or bad, whether it is compatible or not, I am the master's subordinate."

Chu Xuanzhao's gaze became even colder, "Why were you so hesitant just now? You are very similar to him, and you have always been calm and calm. Why did your tone of voice be wrong just now?"

Xiao Ying looked back coldly, "It has nothing to do with you."

Chu Xuanzhao was about to say more, when a loud shout suddenly sounded in front of him, "Your Majesty, please wait."

Chu Xuanzhao reined in the reins, and looked over, the troops had arrived at the twenty-mile long pavilion in Guanzhou, Marshal Cheng Zhiteng, and dozens of officials from Guanzhou headed by Governor Lou Jing were there.

Chu Xuanzhao glanced at Xiao Ying coldly, didn't speak any more, and turned to Cheng Zhiteng and the others, "Excuse me, let me be flat."

Chu Xuanzhao swept everyone away, "General Cheng, you are the only one who is closed?"

Cheng Zhiteng bowed and said, "Return to Your Majesty, that's right. The remaining generals have no order, and dare not leave without permission."

Chu Xuanzhao nodded, "Then why didn't the military advisor come?"

That's what he really wanted to ask.

As soon as he finished asking, he noticed that Xiao Ying's eyes turned to this side, as if he was also waiting for an answer.

Chu Xuanzhao felt cold.

It's not that he is careless, this Xiao Ying really has a problem.

He remembered that Shen Qingjun said that Xiao Ying was two years older than him, and was brought out by his father, then, didn't the two of them also grow up together?

Unexpected, really unexpected.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the military adviser has no official or position, so he never came."

Chu Xuanzhao's face darkened, "No official, no job? How did I ever say that I have to be an official to come here? He is a military adviser, and I am here, so he will come here."

Before Cheng Zhiteng could explain, Xiao Ying spoke with a cold tone, "Your Majesty, you never said that the military adviser must come. Pavilion——, whether the master will come or not, the master should decide for himself."

Chu Xuanzhao's heart sank, he was just probing, but Xiao Ying couldn't help defending Shen Qingjun, and his tone was not like a pure protector at all.

At this point, he was basically sure of his guess.

I just don't know, does Shen Qingjun also know Xiao Ying's thoughts?

Xiao Ying's words surprised the officials who greeted him, master? !Looking at Xiao Ying's clothes, he is clearly a fourth-rank military general. Since he is an official, he should serve His Majesty as the master, but he calls the military advisor his master?

Moreover, how dare he speak to His Majesty like this?Who is this Xiao Ying, or rather, this military adviser?They knew that he was called Mr. Mo Yuan, so who is Mr. Mo Yuan?

However, seeing that Chu Xuanzhao hadn't answered, they naturally didn't dare to warn Xiao Ying.

Chu Xuanzhao had a result in his heart, and smiled slowly, "Xiao Ying, I know you are eager to protect the Lord, but I have no other intentions, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss the military commander."

Xiao Ying pursed his lips and remained silent.

"Your Majesty, the military commander was worried about the army. He didn't dare to leave because he was worried about the Tuojia people making trouble. Please don't blame him." Cheng Zhiteng was not at ease, and subconsciously interceded for Shen Qingjun.

"Hmm." Chu Xuanzhao raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose. I know better than you how good a military adviser is, and I'm not really angry with him... General Cheng, you are as straightforward as ever after all these years.

"Your Majesty, today is the Lantern Festival. Your Majesty has already prepared a small banquet in Zhoucheng to clean up the dust for His Majesty. Do you see?" Lou Jing opened his mouth.

Chu Xuanzhao waved his hand, "No need. I will go directly to Hanling Pass. General Cheng will lead the way. Lou Aiqing, the rear affairs and the burden of comforting the people will be on your shoulders."

Lou Jing smiled, "Lou Jing will definitely live up to His Majesty's trust."

…………

Chu Xuanzhao went all the way into the meeting hall, and his generals were taken to resettle, including that eye-catching Xiao Ying.

Both Xue Ziming and Liu Guanglong were there, and when Cheng Zhiteng invited him to come, he hurriedly saluted, "Zhonglang General Xue Ziming/Shen Ce General Liu Guanglong, bow to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live."

Chu Xuanzhao smiled, "Exemption from the ceremony. This is in the army, no more than the capital, and you generals don't need to perform this great ceremony in the future."

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

Chu Xuanzhao sat down on the main seat, looked up at Cheng Zhiteng, "Where is the military division? Why is it still missing at this time?"

"This..." Cheng Zhiteng went to Guanzhou early in the morning, and he just came back. He doesn't know about this!He looked at Xue Ziming as if asking for help.

Xue Ziming cupped his fists towards Chu Xuanzhao, "Go back to Your Majesty, the military advisor is probably in his room, uh, I don't know His Majesty has arrived... Do you want to invite him?"

have no idea?If others don't know, he still believes, but with Shen Qingjun's five senses, if he says he doesn't know, Chu Xuanzhao won't believe it even if he is beaten to death.

Chu Xuanzhao exhaled heavily, "Please."

Cheng Zhiteng saw that his complexion was not good, worried that he would get angry, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, wait a moment, I will invite you in person."

…………

"Military division, military division." Cheng Zhiteng pushed Shen Qingjun's door open.

Shen Qingjun put down his pen, "What's wrong?"

"Military Advisor, Your Majesty has arrived at the meeting hall."

"Oh."

Cheng Zhiteng blinked, "Military Master, Your Majesty let you go."

Shen Qingjun raised his eyes, "I have no official position, do I want to go too?"

He hasn't figured out what attitude he should take to see Chu Xuanzhao.

Cheng Zhiteng sighed, "Don't say that you have no official and no job as a military advisor. Today in Guanzhou City, His Majesty asked why the military advisor didn't arrive, and I said the same thing, and His Majesty immediately became angry. Now, His Majesty's expression is not as good." Great, the military division should hurry over."

Cheng Zhitengyou was worried, fearing that His Majesty would take his anger out on him, and reminded him, "Military division should be more cautious. For some reason, Your Majesty seems to be angry."

angry?Now Shen Qingjun didn't quite understand.

He didn't think he would be angry just because he didn't go to Guanzhou to pick him up.

"General please."

"Military division please."

…………

Chu Xuanzhao was pacing back and forth.

When the sound of footsteps came, Chu Xuanzhao hurriedly stopped and turned his head, and finally saw the person who made him think about it day and night.

He stepped forward a few steps, and stretched out his hand, "Light——"

"I've seen Your Majesty." Shen Qingjun interrupted him all of a sudden.

What are you doing?Several generals are here.

Chu Xuanzhao calmed down his breathing, and raised his hand that had been suspended in the air, "Excuse me, military commander."

The corner of Shen Qingjun's mouth twitched, I didn't salute, did I?

Chu Xuanzhao turned to look at the three generals, "Three generals, I have something to discuss with the military adviser, and I also need the military adviser to report on the situation during this period of time, so please leave first."

"Yes."

Chu Xuanzhao didn't wait for them to go out, and sighed with a look of surprise, "Oh, Hanling Pass is very cold, and the meeting hall is open, why not sit in the military adviser's room, and the military adviser can talk about it in detail." Come?"

Shen Qingjun glanced at him, "My room is cramped and small, I'm afraid I'll neglect Your Majesty."

Cheng Zhiteng hurriedly turned around, "Your Majesty, Hanling Pass has already prepared a rest and administrative place for His Majesty, do you need me to lead His Majesty there?"

Shen Qingjun hurriedly said, "That's right. Your Majesty might as well go with General Cheng. I know, General Cheng knows better than me. It's better for General Cheng to analyze the situation for His Majesty."

Chu Xuanzhao closed his eyes, then opened them again, "Cheng, General, Jun, aren't you busy?"

Cheng Zhiteng was taken aback, "I'm not busy."

"..."

Chu Xuanzhao pointed to his armor, "Tuo Jia Kou Guan, are you busy?"

Cheng Zhiteng blinked, "Busy, busy, very busy. I will retire at the end."

…………

After closing the door, without waiting for Shen Qingjun to speak, Chu Xuanzhao hugged him from behind in an instant.

Shen Qingjun's mind went blank.

After reacting, he subconsciously grabbed his hand, but didn't move.

Chu Xuanzhao greedily sniffed the faint fragrance on his body, "Qingjun..., Qingjun..., I miss you so much, I'm going crazy."

Shen Qingjun stopped struggling, and clearly felt the crazily beating heart behind him, bumping against his chest and undulating.

"Chu Xuanzhao, let me go first."

"I do not."

"Chu Xuanzhao."

"Just a moment, please."

After a long while, Chu Xuanzhao reluctantly let him go, "Qing Jun, you've lost weight."

"Is there?" Shen Qingjun didn't think so.After all, I drank so much pigeon soup.

"It's not as full as the one before leaving Beijing."

"..."

"...The arm was inside that time, and the arm was outside this time, Your Majesty."

"..."

Chu Xuanzhao smiled, "You remember it so clearly? I don't even remember it!"

Shen Qingjun's face changed slightly.

Chu Xuanzhao raised his hand and stroked his hair, "Did you ever miss me?"

Shen Qingjun turned his head, "Didn't Your Majesty want to ask about the battle situation during this period, let me explain it to Your Majesty in detail."

Chu Xuanzhao was overjoyed, his heart was pounding, "You miss me?!"

"..."

How did you translate, Your Majesty?

Chu Xuanzhao was very excited, "Do you really miss me? Really?"

"No." Maybe it was a guilty conscience, maybe it was something else, Shen Qingjun subconsciously glanced at the wastebasket in the corner.

Chu Xuanzhao caught his expression, squinted his eyes slightly, and quickly stretched out his hand towards the wastebasket.

The hand was caught by Shen Qingjun's arm.

Chu Xuanzhao quickly bypassed him and grabbed him again.

After half an hour...

"Whoa!"

The only vase left in the room was smashed to pieces.

The golden light in Chu Xuanzhao's eyes slowly dissipated, he moved his wrist with a heavy breath, and slowly unfolded the ball of paper in his hand.

Xiao Ying.

Chu Xuanzhao seemed to have been drenched completely by a basin of cold water.

White powder spilled from his hands, his eyes were bloodshot quickly, "Shen Qingjun, is that why you stopped me?"

Shen Qingjun looked surprised, even if he caught the word "Zhao", shouldn't it be this reaction?
