princess is everywhere

Xu Mu has always been vigilant about this impromptu army. She doesn't believe their combat strength is one thing, and the composition is too complicated. There was only one lieutenant general, but now that the garrisons from various state capitals have been gathered, there are more than ten school lieutenants, captains, and miscellaneous generals in total.

Of course, Xu Mu did not underestimate Prince Xin who raised his army, after all, he raised his army to survive, not to die.

Sure enough, Xu Mu's impromptu action caught the current situation.Captain Pingcheng was bought, not only did he bring his soldiers and horses to give birth to dissatisfaction, but he also brought a lot of gold and silver to buy other generals in the same company.

It was a long time after late at night that Xu Mu finished processing the follow-up and returned to the tent.

Anyang had already finished washing, and secretly applied medicine to his worn thigh.Afterwards, she waited for Xu Mu for a long time, until sleepiness struck, Anyang dozed off bit by bit with his chin propped on his head, and Xu Mu finally came back after finishing his work.

When Xu Mu entered the tent, there was very little movement, so she didn't disturb Anyang, but when she looked up, she saw Anyang dozing off with his eyes closed.She looked at it and remembered that the little tiger used to wait for her to doze off, and the depression accumulated in her heart dissipated by two points. When she walked to Anyang and was about to remind her to go to bed, she happened to see Anyang's hand resting on his chin. As soon as it slipped, his head hit the desk.

Caught off guard, Xu Mu was also taken aback and hurriedly reached out to pick it up.

Fortunately, she moved fast enough to support Anyang before her head hit the desk, and then she let out a sigh of relief.

An Yang bumped into Xu Mu's palm in a daze, but he didn't wake up. Instead, he unconsciously pressed his face against Xu Mu's palm. is too familiar.

Xu Mu's brows and eyes softened instantly, and the corners of his lips curled up into a smile. He just felt that Anyang, who was acting like a baby in a daze, was very cute.Therefore, she stared at Anyang's sleeping face for a long time, but she couldn't let her go on like this, so she woke him up softly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, wake up, I'm back, if you want to sleep, go back to bed, don't be in bed." Sit here."

Anyang opened his eyes in a daze when he heard Xu Mu's voice, and didn't realize that he was leaning against Xu Mu's palm at the moment.She frowned and sat up straight, muttering vaguely: "I agreed to let me wait for you, why did you come back so late?"

Xu Mu couldn't help feeling a little guilty when he heard the words, and quickly apologized: "It's my fault, I came back too late, you should go to rest."

An Yang rubbed her eyes and woke up, but she didn't indicate that she was awake, instead she opened her arms to Xu Mu and said coquettishly, "I don't want to leave, you carry me to bed."

The two had a lot of physical contact from the beginning, because Anyang was used to getting close to Xu Mu, and Xu Mu seemed to not refuse her natural attitude.Of course, this time was no exception. Xu Mu just showed a helpless expression, and then took two steps forward and hugged him horizontally.An Yang put his arms around her neck and leaned in her arms, feeling that he did not wait in vain tonight.

After Xu Mu hugged Anyang back to the bed, Anyang sat up straight. How could he still be as confused as before?She still took it for granted, and waved Xu Mu away: "Go and wash up, I'll wait for you to sleep together."

Xu Mu also had no temper, or she was willing to spoil Anyang, so she shook her head and went to wash up without saying anything.

Anyang then lay down again, lying on the head of the bed and watching Xu Mu wash up, and asked casually: "Before that your personal soldier said that there was something wrong with Captain Pingcheng, what happened, has it been dealt with now?"

The two have known each other for many years, Xu Mu's secret is not a secret in front of Anyang, let alone other things.Therefore, Anyang asked casually, and Xu Mu didn't feel that there was anything he couldn't tell her, so he twisted the handkerchief and wiped his face, and replied: "It was Prince Xin who bought Captain Pingcheng and let him serve in the army. To buy people's hearts, maybe they want to catch me off guard during the battle."

Anyang hugged the quilt, and was a little surprised when he heard the words: "Buying people's hearts? What do these people think? The rebellion in Dingzhou is about to be quelled. At this time, he voted for Prince Xin. Could it be that he wanted to accompany him to die?!"

Xu Mu didn't take it seriously, and said flatly: "It can't be bought, it's just because the benefits are not enough. If the money is enough, there will be people who are willing to take risks."

There are a lot of people in this world who are desperate for money, and there are not a few who are collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, let alone doing something in the counter-insurgency army.Afterwards, Captain Pingcheng and the others would not foolishly defect to the rebels, just take the money and fly away.

Anyang has never been short of money, so she can't understand these people's way of asking for money, but this does not prevent her from knowing that there are many such people in the world.At the moment, I was just a little curious: "How much money did Prince Xin give him?"

Xu Mu had already finished washing, and walked towards the bed, and replied, "10 taels, and I gave him 10 taels as a bribe."

10 taels is not a small amount, and Anyang only allocated 20 taels to go out of the palace and build a mansion. For a state capital captain, this money is hard to come by in his life-Pingcheng is not a prosperous city, To put it bluntly, with his official position as Captain Pingcheng, it would be difficult for him to be greedy so much in his entire life, so it's no wonder he would risk his heart for this money.

But Anyang was surprised when he heard this: "Is Prince Xin so rich? You can buy as much as 20 taels if you just buy a captain?! I remember that Dingzhou was not considered prosperous, and King Xin used to raise private soldiers. I can't afford too much."

Xu Mu sighed, and replied: "I heard that Prince Xin copied many big merchants in Dingzhou, robbed them of their accumulation for generations, and temporarily raised a lot of taxes under his rule.

Anyang didn't quite understand the significance of what Prince Xin did, just like she couldn't understand why King Xin acted in such a frenzied way that he colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country. She could only attribute it to the madness of the father and son.

Just thinking of those years ago, Anyang couldn't help feeling sorry for Xu Mu, and skillfully slipped into Xu Mu's arms while he was lying down.Xu Mu also skillfully raised his arms to hug him, and it felt really good to hug her warmly and softly.She was planning to pat Anyang to let her go to bed earlier, but the person in her arms raised her head and kissed her chin first, and said softly: "Okay, go to sleep earlier."

Suddenly Xu Mu didn't want to sleep anymore, her eyes stayed on Anyang's bright red lips for a moment, but in the end she didn't do anything.

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

After solving the hidden dangers in the army, the marching speed of the counter-insurgency army did not delay at all, and they still set up camp at sunrise and rest at dusk.In this way, a few more days passed, and the army like scattered sand did not make any more moths, but Dingzhou was soon in sight.

King Xin is not a man who is good at fighting, and neither is the son of King Xin. With a victorious general like Xu Mu, he naturally doesn't have to worry about winning or losing.However, as General Changsheng himself, Xu Mu was a little worried these two days...

"Your Highness, we are about to arrive in Dingzhou. When the time comes, swords and arrows will be invisible on the battlefield. I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you well." Xu Mu tried to persuade the stubborn eldest princess for two days, "The scenery of Lucheng ahead is not bad. , it’s not too far from Dingzhou, I’ve sent people to the city to arrange a residence, Your Highness might as well stay in Lucheng for a few days, I’m sure I’ll be able to lead the army to triumph in a short time.”

In order to persuade Anyang, Xu Mu was not humble at all, and vowed so hard that he could return someday—this is also impossible. Xu Mu persuaded Anyang all the way, and he had already missed Zhucheng and Fancheng, and Lucheng was the last one. at.Going forward with the army, even if they found a place to resettle, it would no longer be safe. At that time, Xu Mu might be worried about letting Anyang leave the army.

Anyang was a little stubborn, and didn't want to be left behind: "It's not the first time I've fought with you, what are you worried about? Besides, I believe that Wang Shizi is not a strong opponent, and you also vowed that you can win, and you will not send me away." What are you doing?!"

Xu Mu was helpless, but this time he refused to compromise: "No way. Speaking of accompanying me on the battlefield, you also know how dangerous it is. Have you forgotten why Sixue is gone? You forgot me Dare to forget." At this point she paused, her voice dropped suddenly: "Sixue is gone, there is still Xiao Liu, but the eldest princess is gone, so is Xiao Liu still there?"

Except for the time when they met each other, the two of them didn't say anything about Xiaoliu again, but Xu Mu also knew now that it wasn't Xiaoliu who became Anyang, but Anyang himself was Xiaoliu.It doesn't matter if Ruxue dies, and it doesn't matter if Hei Ying dies, but nothing happens to Anyang, if something happens to her, Xu Mu will never be able to find her Xiaoliu again.

Anyang was mentioned by her so solemnly, and she also understood the importance of her own safety.It's just that she believed in Brother Huang and also in Xu Mu, so she wasn't worried about how dangerous this battle would be, so she still didn't hesitate.

Seeing that hesitation finally appeared in her eyes, Xu Mu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and touched Anyang's head again: "Good boy, will you be obedient?"

Xu Mu said this sentence very gently, only Anyang was reflected in his black and white eyes.She looked at Anyang fixedly, her eyes seemed to have never changed, but Anyang saw tenderness and affection from the bottom of her eyes.

For a moment, Anyang felt his heart beating, and nodded as if bewitched.It was only after seeing Xu Mu's relieved expression that he realized what he had promised, but he was annoyed, but he couldn't say anything about regretting it.She was so angry that she had no choice but to blame Xu Mu for bewitching herself, while pouting and making a request: "Then I want you to send me there in person."

Xu Mu naturally agreed to this trivial matter, happily changed his armor, and personally sent Anyang to Lucheng to settle down.

The people who were sent to Lucheng were quite attentive. They rented a house in the city early on and arranged servants to serve them.This house is not big, but it is very elegantly furnished, it should be enough as a temporary place to stay.

After Xu Mu sent the people there, he inspected the whole house, and personally arranged for Anyang's guards to patrol and defend, so he was a little relieved.It's just that when it came to parting, she herself felt reluctant to part with her, and her eyes fell on Anyang for a long time and she couldn't bear to move away.

Anyang was not very happy at first, seeing Xu Mu's reluctance, the resentment in his heart dissipated.Seeing that parting was imminent, she waved to Xu Mu: "Come here."

Xu Mu obediently passed by, and stood in front of Anyang: "What orders does Your Highness have?"

His Highness didn't give any orders, His Highness just grabbed her skirt, then pulled her down and gnawed on it.
