princess is everywhere

The army's expedition is not a tour of mountains and rivers, so even if he is reluctant to suffer in Anyang, Xu Mu can't slow down his itinerary.However, he can always take care of the details when he is on the road, such as choosing a fast and stable horse for Anyang to ride, and then putting a layer of cushion on the saddle.Another example is taking advantage of the night when the army is stationed, sneaking to a nearby city to buy some food, or hunting nearby to add meals to Anyang.

Anyang looked at Xu Mu, who often ran away from the army, and suddenly realized that she hadn't changed much over the years. He still remembered that during the Northern Expedition, Xu Mu often left the team by virtue of being out of place with Xuexue. Fortunately, nothing happened. , but being bold is really being bold.

Just as An Yang felt emotional, Xu Mu leaned over and asked, "How does Your Highness feel today after driving all day?"

This is already the tenth day of their march, and Anyang, like the soldiers, has gradually adapted to the journey, except that his thighs are occasionally worn out, everything is fine.But even though the two are close now, Anyang is too embarrassed to bring up the matter of his thigh being worn out, so he said: "I feel good today, I'm used to traveling, and I'm not as tired as before."

Xu Mu was not surprised when he heard this. People are very patient, and they adapt quickly to travel or other hardships.She smiled immediately, and stretched out her hand to Anyang: "In this case, is Your Highness interested in going to Tongcheng ahead with me today?"

The [-] elite soldiers that Xu Mu brought out from the capital had now gradually joined many state garrisons, and the number had exceeded [-]. Afterwards, the number of the army would continue to increase until it had [-] soldiers.These many soldiers and horses crossed the state and the government, so it is not easy to enter the city, so as not to disturb the people, so even if Tongcheng is not far ahead, the army can only be stationed in the wilderness overlooking the city.

However, the proximity makes it easier to come and go. Xu Mu had seen a lot of soldiers going to Tongcheng early on. Xu Mu sent people to buy food in the city. It was not a special case. made.

Of course, Xu Mu was the first general to go to the city in person.

Only then did Anyang notice that Xu Mu had changed the armor on his body into an ordinary riding outfit at some point. It didn't look as majestic as when he was wearing armor, but he had a youthful elegance.Anyang was distracted for a while, and suddenly wanted to know, what would Xu Mu look like in women's clothes?We have known each other for a long time, but I have never seen her once.

Xu Mu didn't know what Anyang was thinking, and he didn't hear her answer for a long time, so he asked again: "We are almost at Tongcheng, Your Highness, would you like to go with me? Or if Your Highness is tired today, then I can go by myself."

Only then did Anyang come back to his senses. Seeing that Xu Mu's hand was still stretched out in front of him, he quickly reached out to hold it: "No, I'm with you."

****************************************************************************

After Anyang changed his clothes, Xu Mu brought Moyu, and they left the camp on the same horse.

Tonight's army was stationed not far from Tongcheng, even if Mo Yu supported two people, he ran very fast.It only took more than a quarter of an hour for the horse to gallop, and when Xu Mu grabbed the reins, the two of them were already under the city of Tongcheng.

Anyang held onto Xu Mu's arm all the way, his face was a little unwell from the bumps, and the horse stopped to catch his breath.She jumped off the horse first, puffed her cheeks and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you running so fast all of a sudden, we are not in a hurry."

Xu Mu blinked innocently, pointed at Mo Yu and said, "Mo Yu is walking all day long, and Mo Yu must be exhausted and wants to run."

Hearing the words, Anyang remembered that when he turned into a white horse, he was very happy to gallop on the grassland, so he believed it immediately, and touched Moyu's mane with some pity: "Yes, Moyu was probably used to running in the past. Walking slowly like this is really frustrating. When I return to Beijing, I will take it to the racecourse for a good run, and there is also a hunting ground in Dongshan..."

Moyu has a gentle temperament, but as a war horse, not everyone can touch it, but it seems to be very close to Anyang.Right now, I don't know if I understand Anyang's words, and I want to rub my head against Anyang when I go over, very close and well-behaved.

However, the black horse's head failed to touch Anyang, and was blocked by Xu Mu halfway and pushed back. Xu Mu interrupted before Anyang finished speaking: "It's okay, wait until it's active on the battlefield. Come on, let’s go into the city and have a look.”

After Xu Mu finished speaking, he took the rein with one hand, and Anyang's hand with the other, and led them into the city, one person and one horse.

An Yang was led away for two steps, and suddenly realized something, rolled his eyes to Xu Mu's ear, and asked her in a low voice with a smile: "Why don't you allow Moyu to approach me, and interrupt me, because you are jealous Yet?"

Xu Mu's ears were a little itchy when she brought her to talk, and he was even more uncomfortable: "What nonsense are you talking about, Mo Yu is just a horse."

Yes, Moyu is just a horse, but a long, long time ago, a white horse had eaten the jealousy of this black horse.It's just that Anyang didn't have the same affection for Xu Mu at that time, and he couldn't understand this "extra" dark horse very much when he was ignorant.

I don't know if he felt something, but Mo Yu suddenly snorted, feeling a little uneasy.

Anyang smiled, and didn't continue this topic, but after entering the city, he saw apples for sale, so he bought some to feed Moyu first.Moyu usually doesn't eat food fed by others, but he is willing to eat food fed by Anyang. I don't know if he really recognizes this former little friend, or thinks she is familiar and close, or sees that his master has a different relationship with her ?

Seeing that Anyang was only focusing on feeding the horses, Xu Mu looked a little unhappy, took the remaining apples by himself, and then asked: "I only ate a little dry food at noon, aren't you hungry? Is there anything you want to eat?" "

It's almost enough to tease this person and horse, Anyang accepts it when he sees it.She looked up and looked around, and found that although Tongcheng was small, there were rows of shops on both sides of the street, and it looked a bit prosperous.However, no matter how prosperous Tongcheng is, it can't compare to Beijing, and the food in the restaurant can't compare to the craftsmanship of the imperial chef, so he didn't care too much: "Use some food as you like, you know I don't pick anything."

Anyang is really not picky eaters anymore. After all, what else can people who have eaten grass eat?

Xu Mu didn't think of this, but she also knew that the eldest princess was well-clothed and well-fed, and the food in this ordinary restaurant was not good for her.She looked around, decided not to choose any restaurant, and planned to take Anyang to try local snacks.

Anyang grew up in the deep palace, and he rarely went out of the palace and would not go to the roadside stalls casually, let alone taste these folk snacks.Right now, she is still a little novel, and Xu Mu took her for a walk around the street, and there are many paper bags containing snacks in her hands.There are vegetables, meat and snacks, all of which Anyang has never eaten before, so he was very interested in it for a while.

Insert a freshly fried tofu ball with a bamboo stick and put it in the mouth. The fresh aroma and spicy taste exploded in the mouth at the same time. The next moment Anyang's eyes were red and teary-she has a light taste, eating Not spicy.

Xu Mu and Anyang haven't been together long enough, especially since they don't have much time to eat together—the casually cooked meals in the army are not counted, they are all what they eat, and they don't care about the taste at all—so she doesn't know Anyang very well yet. taste.She didn't know that Anyang couldn't eat spicy food, so she was startled when she saw her like this, and hurriedly found a bag of glutinous rice rolls to feed Anyang: "This is sweet, your highness, please eat some of it."

Anyang bit down in a hurry, and didn't pay attention when his lips touched Xu Mu's fingertips. It wasn't until the sweetness of the glutinous rice rolls relieved the burning in his mouth that he let out a long breath and complained: "Why are these meatballs so spicy? !"

Xu Mu secretly twirled his fingertips, not listening to what Anyang said at all.She absent-mindedly took the tofu balls that Anyang despised, and ate one by herself without much thought, and said, "I think it's okay."

Anyang watched Xu Mu eat the half-bitten tofu balls, her face turned red, but she didn't say anything, she lowered her head and went to look for something else to eat.Then she would taste what she wanted to eat first, and eat what she liked, and hand over what didn't suit her taste to Xu Mu.The latter never refuses anyone who comes, but sometimes his face turns red when he eats.

The two seem to be close and understanding, and occasionally they will be teased when buying snacks, and both of them will blush if they are not careful.

From Jinwuxi Falling to Twilight Sihe, the two of them visited this small Tongcheng once, and Anyang was already full.It's time for them to go back, but Anyang rarely felt a bit reluctant, took Xu Mu's hand and said, "Let's go out for a walk often in the future, I haven't visited my fief yet, let's go together after the wedding." How about going to see it?"

Xu Mu naturally agreed, and in the hazy night, he pulled back the loose strands of hair behind Anyang's ears, and his tone was as gentle as his movements: "Okay. Wait, after you get married, I will accompany you wherever you want to go." looking at you."

Anyang was happy again when he heard the words, and he didn't feel sad anymore, he dragged Xu Mu out of the city: "My fief is definitely better than Tongcheng."

Xu Mu nodded in agreement, and the two left Tongcheng talking and laughing. After leaving the city gate, they rode back to the station together again.Mo Yu still ran a little fast, but this time Xu Mu protected An Yang more carefully, and the latter felt comfortable in her arms.

The two of them left the camp quickly, and there was not much delay in Tongcheng, so it took less than an hour to return to the camp.Originally, it was the work of patrolling the camp and cooking, and then rested after dinner. Even Anyang was used to this routine.It's just that when he came back from a trip today, Anyang found that the atmosphere around him was inexplicably tense.

Before Anyang could ask any questions, Xu Mu's soldiers came forward and reported in a low voice: "General, the captain of Pingcheng has a problem, and he wanted to get in touch with the army, but now we have captured him."

When Xu Mu heard the words, there was no change in his face, and he nodded to show that he understood—she patrolled the camp every day on the march, not only seeing the discipline and combat strength of the troops, but also the morale of the troops.In the past two days, she faintly sensed that the atmosphere in the army was different, so she took Anyang out of the camp after some consideration, to see if anyone would take the opportunity to do something.

The result did not disappoint her, Xu Mu immediately sent people to interrogate, and went to the army to appease him.

Anyang was still holding two packs of snacks in his hand, feeling a little sad for some reason.Before she could think about it, Xu Mu rubbed her head, "You're exhausted, go back to the account first and wait for me."

With a pat on the head, Anyang became happy again as if his hair had been patted down.
