Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

Xiao Xuexing actually didn't want to monitor Xiao Zirong originally, he was worried that Xiao Zirong would be disgusted and alienated if he knew about it in the future.

It's just that sometimes it's one thing to know, and another to do it.

He suppressed the mad urge to capture Xiao Zirong and imprison him by his side, and began to think seriously. Did he really cause Xiao Zirong a great burden before?

Was the intimacy that Xiao Zirong expressed to him forced?

Because he was pressing too hard, and Xiao Zirong felt that he had no strength to resist?

Xiao Xuexing had never encountered such a difficult matter, and for a moment he felt a headache.

Reason told him that Xiao Zirong was pure in heart, if he liked it, he liked it, and if he didn't like it, he didn't like it. If he really hated him, he would probably take a detour instead of trying to please him.

Just like before, he felt that he was in danger and ran away desperately.

However, he also felt that Xiao Zirong had grown up, and after experiencing so many things, he was no longer as naive as before. Maybe it was to stabilize him so that he could develop himself, so as to get out of his control.

Xiao Xuexing closed his eyes and felt restless, and finally couldn't do anything, so he went back to the dormitory and prepared to rest.

He needs to calm down to look at this matter more rationally.

However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw the moon lamp hanging beside his bed.

He remembered that night Xiao Zirong said to him with bright eyes: "Brother, I plucked the moon for you."

The ferocious beast that almost broke through the cage in my heart gradually calmed down, dormant again in my heart.

He reached out and touched the moon lamp, and the moon lamp shook accordingly.

It can be seen that Xiao Zirong spent a lot of effort to make this lamp, and at the same time, there is the birthday cake that is not for sale and not easy to take out, it is his own exclusive thing.

Xiao Xuexing's mood has calmed down a lot, and it's easy to tell whether he has intentions or not, and this is the most difficult thing to pretend.

He was lying on the bed and looking at the moon lamp, he was a little puzzled, why did Xiao Zirong stop writing to him all of a sudden?

He didn't understand that Xiao Zirong was also restraining himself, and he didn't dare to write too much, for fear that if he wrote too much, his thoughts would be exposed.

When they were in Jiankang before, the two of them were sticky and sticky. Anyway, the two brothers have always been like this, and now they are separated. Xiao Zirong's going out of the town means that he has grown up, and it seems inappropriate to be sticky again.

It's just that his restraint aroused Xiao Xuexing's uneasiness, and he even wanted to go to Jingkou to have a look.

Just when he was thinking about going to Jingkou, Xiao Xuan called him into the palace.

Xiao Xuexing tidied up his clothes and went straight into the palace. After entering, he found that there were only the emperor and Xiao Ji and his son in the side hall.

Xiao Xue saluted and asked: "I don't know why His Majesty summoned his ministers here?"

Xiao Xuan asked: "Do you know what Rong'er did in Jingkou?"

Xiao Xuexing was startled, wondering if Xiao Xuan knew that he sent someone to monitor Xiao Zirong and was beating him, but his mouth was very calm: "Not yet, why? Is he doing well?"

Seeing that his expression did not seem to be fake, Xiao Xuan didn't say anything, but Xiao Ji who was on the side asked: "Didn'er you write a letter?"

Xiao Xuexing shook his head: "No."

Xiao Ji clicked his tongue: "It seems that this brat is afraid of your anger."

Xiao Xuexing paused before asking: "What did Rong'er do?"

He was just patronizing and angry about Xiao Zirong taking Mu Lin out for a trip, and he was stuffed with beauties again. Although he confiscated none of them, it didn't prevent Xiao Xuexing from feeling unhappy.

Xiao Xuan didn't meet him either, and directly pushed the letter paper and said, "Let's take a look."

Xiao Xuexing took the letter just now, and when he got the letter paper, he felt that something was wrong, and the letter paper was too thick.

He opened it and looked at it carefully from beginning to end. After reading it, he couldn't help but look a little weird.

This letter can be summed up in two things: first, when Xiao Zirong arrived in Jingkou, he brought Jingkou’s Buqudu and his subordinates together. Now a new Buqudu is needed, and I hope Xiao Xuan will send someone;

Second, Xiao Zirong not only mobilized the army in Jingkou, but also the army in the entire Jinling territory. He directly disarmed the army. One-third of the entire Jinling army went directly, and the remaining two-thirds he intend to assemble;

Third, he wants to recruit troops again, but the number of recruits is only about [-], which meets the requirements of the princes and kings.

Xiao Zirong's three things were done to appease the imperial court. The imperial court has always valued and guarded against Jingkou, worried that the soldiers there would rebel. Otherwise, why would the emperor go there to appease him?

Now that King Jinling's disarmament has made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, this number of troops can no longer pose any threat to Jiankang.

But at the same time, a new problem arose: If there are not enough soldiers, can Jingkou still be held?

Seeing Xiao Xuexing read the letter, Xiao Xuan asked, "What do you think?"

Xiao Xuexing sorted out his thoughts and said: "Actually, Ron'er's idea is very simple. He just thinks that Jinling has a huge power and it's not easy for him to use it, so he cuts down the opponent's power, and his reason for disarming the army is not a problem. "

"But how will he recruit again after the disarmament? There are only so many people in Jinling, and there are not many who meet his conditions." Xiao Ji said worriedly.

Xiao Xuexing said with a smile: "But there is no need to worry, Rong'er has always wanted to take the route of elite soldiers, Your Majesty forgot Taoyuanwei?"

Xiao Xuan felt relieved when he thought of those valiant ladies.

"That's good." Xiao Xuan said with a stretched eyebrow and eyes: "In this way, he may conscript more corvees and win the hearts of the people."

Not all soldiers are willing to join the army. As the saying goes, good iron does not make nails, and a good man does not serve as a soldier. After being a soldier, he is naturally inferior to others. If it is not really desperate, no one will choose this path.

The reason for Xiao Zirong's disarmament also reflects his love for the people. As for those generals... Xiao Xuan thinks that Jing Shi and others are examples, so they probably wouldn't dare to take action.

Thinking of Jing Shi, Xiao Xuan couldn't help feeling complicated. He also met Jing Shi, and that person was quite lawless. At first, Xiao Xuan was very worried about Xiao Zirong, but he didn't expect Xiao Zirong to clean him up when he got there. .

What's this?Are newborn calves not afraid of tigers?

Xiao Xuan glanced at Xiao Xuexing with complicated eyes and said, "I was a little worried about Rong'er at the beginning, thinking that you would go there with him."

He knows how much Xiao Xuexing protects Xiao Zirong, and Xiao Xuexing gave Xiao Zirong a part of Xueziying and Luoxuewei because he turned a blind eye, thinking that Xiao Xuexing would follow anyway and wait for Xiao Zirong to settle the situation Let's talk about stability, but I didn't expect that Xiao Xuexing didn't go.

Xiao Xuexing smiled slightly: "Since you have handed Jinling to Rong'er, you have to trust him. No matter what, you have to let him try it. Wait until it really doesn't work. Isn't he doing very well now?"

While talking, Xiao Xuexing was regretting in his heart. If he had known that Xiao Xuan would follow him by default, he would have gone there. It was not because he was afraid that Xiao Xuan would suspect Xiao Zirong that he tried his best to restrain himself.

After hearing this, Xiao Xuan couldn't help complaining: "I was worried that he used to be a sheep in the tiger's mouth, but now... it's a wolf in the sheepfold."

What level of demon king is this? Why didn't he realize that Xiao Zirong was so destructive before?

Xiao Ji couldn't help laughing at the side, not to mention, a wolf in the sheepfold is quite image, but Jing Shi and others are definitely not sheep, I can only say that Xiao Zirong never seems to be timid, he thinks it is right, then Just do it, as long as it doesn't kill you, do it to death.

Xiao Zirong, who was being discussed, was currently doing something more important recently - a military parade.

Originally, all the generals had no idea about the military parade, but since the King of Jinling said that if someone can beat his Taoyuan Guard, the army will not be disarmed, so they can participate.

They all inquired, and the so-called Taoyuan Guards were a group of delicate ladies.

The generals discussed in private and felt that Xiao Zirong might have brought this to play with him. They even winked during the discussion, and said wretchedly: "As expected of the royal family, I just know how to play."

Although winning against a group of young ladies is a bit unfair, but when will they face off for the sake of benefit?

Xiao Zirong had already announced the order of the military parade. The first wave was the entrance ceremony, and everyone understood it as taking the soldiers through the scene.

The second wave is a variety of martial arts performances. For the sake of civilization, only two methods of archery and crossbow are selected. Archery is compared to individual skills, while crossbow is compared to teamwork.

Everyone was relieved after seeing it, and they directly chose the best shooter to go there.

Xiao Zirong also entertained them very gently. At the military parade, they sat on the high-rise building to eat and drink. Xiao Zirong specially made some relatively novel snacks, which put the generals in a very good mood.

However, this goodness turned into doubts when Taoyuanwei played.

There are not many Taoyuan Guards under Xiao Zirong, and this time it can be regarded as an all-out force, so there are two types of entrance ceremonies, the front is led by cavalry, and the rear is followed by infantry.

When the cavalry entered the arena, everyone's eyes were attracted. The little ladies were all dressed in red, and they looked very energetic on the horses with their chests upright. The most surprising thing was that the horses were arranged very well. tidy.

At first glance, it is very friendly to obsessive-compulsive disorder, but this is not the most extreme. The most extreme thing is that when walking, these horses have the same pace, and even lift their hooves on the same side during the march, just like copy and paste Similarly, those generals stared wide-eyed, deeply doubting whether they were wrong.

The cavalry lady turned her head very neatly as she rode through the middle of the road. From the movement of her head to the fixed angle, she seemed to be the same person at a glance.

This is especially true for infantry. When have these generals ever seen them marching in unison?

When Taoyuanwei entered the arena, everyone felt a powerful aura rushing towards them, and there was even a little evil in this aura.

Jing Shi on the side had been sitting next to Xiao Zirong before, as quiet as a chicken, indifferent to the eyes of everyone on him, and finally couldn't help asking at this moment: "Master, Taoyuanwei has been on the battlefield?"

Xiao Zirong glanced at it and found that many people were listening with pricked ears. He couldn't help but smiled and said: "Exactly, two years ago, the Northern Wei Dynasty sent troops to land and attack Taoyuan City from the port. There were 180 enemies and 120 nine prisoners, oh, at that time Taoyuan Guard actually only had 100 people.”

Everyone gasped after hearing this, and at this moment, soldiers from other armies also began to enter the arena.

Everyone looked at the soldiers who walked loosely, dressed in colorful clothes, and raised their weapons and screamed from time to time, and wanted to cover their faces for a moment-this comparison, the soldiers under them were really eye-catching.
