After rebirth, I became the Prince Regent's little heart

Chapter 052 Southern Chu, the smoke rises, the conclusion of the first battle

Ye Zhaoyan thought for a while, and then said: "But having said that, the reason why their great general Han Xiu was able to do this is probably because their new king is too weak. The entire power of Southern Chu is in his hands. The emperor has no real power at all, Han Xiu is warlike and ambitious, and has always wanted to go north and enter the hinterland of the Central Plains of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but he didn't know that the years and months of fighting would only consume more, and the people complained."

Xiao Luochen said with a smile: "What father-in-law said is true. Han Xiu is in power. He has acquired all the border lands of Southern Chu these years, and now he wants to go north. It's a pity that his Southern Chu is nothing compared to our Northern Zhou Dynasty. It’s just a barbaric state and a small country. In addition, although he has included the Southern Chu borderlands in the Southern Chu territory these years, the consumption required for the war is not a little bit. Conscription and taxation, the people of Southern Chu are far more miserable than before. Now Han Xiu is doing everything. When he stationed troops in the southern border, he thought he was sure of victory, but unfortunately, he couldn't withstand a blow at all, as long as there was a hole behind him, even if it was small, it could be fatal under such circumstances."

Afterwards, Xiao Luochen continued, "But father-in-law is right, their new monarch has no power to resist under Han Xiu's suppression, and this person is a man of peace , this battle is inevitable, but afterwards, it can be reconsidered.”

"Your plan is not wrong. I'm old, not as young as before. Now the southern border is handed over to Han Xun. With you going this time, it's my turn to worry about the rest of the matter."

Ye Shuyan sat beside him and said seriously, "Father is not old."

Xiao Luochen echoed Ye Shuyan's words, "What Xiaoshu said is very true. Father-in-law is healthy and bright, but he doesn't look old at all."

"You don't need to make me happy here. I don't know about my own situation. Anyway, with the support of you juniors, it doesn't matter if I serve the old." Ye Zhaoyan said very indifferently.

At this time, a maid from outside came in, "Master Hou, Madam said that the lunch outside is ready, please go over with the Prince Regent and Princess Concubine."

Ye Zhaoyan looked at Xiao Luochen and Ye Shuyan, and said: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Anyway, when you arrive at the southern border, you can handle everything. You don't need me to worry about it. Now let's go there first. meal."

"Yes." "Yes." Xiao Luochen and Ye Shuyan responded together, and immediately, the three of them walked out of the study and went straight to the main hall where the banquet was held.

Seeing the group of people who came over, the dishes on the dining table were arranged properly, and said with a smile: "Okay, we are all a family, so don't be restrained, just sit down and eat."

Then, everyone sat down and had a meal together.

After dinner, I moved to the flower hall next to me, sat down to drink tea and talk.

Chen Shi looked at Xiao Luochen, and couldn't help asking, "I've decided to go to the southern border, but I don't know when to leave?"

Xiao Luochen responded, "Han Xun is rushing to send the secret letter back to Beijing, and I will arrange it as soon as possible, and then I have to leave, so it will be in these two days."

"These two days?"

Seeing his wife's surprised look, Ye Zhaoyan said immediately: "The matter in the southern border is urgent. The sooner we go there, the sooner we can plan and solve it as soon as possible. Naturally, the sooner we can return to the imperial capital."

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen nodded, "That's right, but I'm just thinking about it, I'm a little hasty, and Xiaoshu has to go with me, it's inevitable..."

Ye Shuyan immediately said, "Mom, I'll go with you, and I don't need to prepare anything. When I go to the southern border, everything is not ready-made."

Xiao Luochen responded, and said: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, it's fine, the affairs of the capital, and the queen mother is in charge, I don't have to worry too much, I just need to focus on the affairs of the southern border. On the book side, I will take care of everything and absolutely won't let him make any mistakes."

"En." Chen replied, and said no more.

For a while, after drinking the tea, Ye Zhaoyan and Chen Shi thought that Xiao Luochen still had things to take care of when he returned home. After all, when it comes to matters in the southern border, they must be well prepared, and they can't make mistakes. They didn't stay too long , just let them just go about their business.

Ye Zhaoyan and Chen's husband and wife sent Ye Shuyan and Xiao Luochen out of the house. Chen looked at the carriage going away, and said in a concentrated voice, "Xiao Shu will go with me. I still feel a little uneasy in my heart."

"Xiao Shu doesn't want to stay in the imperial capital, so what can he do? Besides, they are already married, so they work together. It is only natural that Xiao Shu wants to stay with her husband. We don't have to go east because of those things." There is no need to think too much about Xixi."

"You are very relieved."

"Because there are people around Xiaoshu who are taking care of him and protecting him, so there is no danger of anything going wrong. We can't stick to Xiaoshu all our lives. When it's time to let go, we have to let go. Don't think too much." Ye Zhaoyan said calmly, "Okay, let's not stand here, let's go into the house."

Chen Shi sighed, then turned and went back to the room.

At this moment, the Regent Palace.

As soon as Xiao Luochen and Ye Shuyan returned to the mansion, there were palace people waiting in the mansion. When they saw the regent and princess coming back, they immediately stepped forward to salute, and then said: "My lord, you may need to clean up as soon as possible. Tomorrow morning, Immediately set off for the south."

"What does the Empress Dowager mean?" Xiao Luochen asked back.

"Yes." The palace man replied truthfully.

"Okay, go back and tell the queen mother, the king knows about it, and will make arrangements and leave as soon as possible tomorrow."

After the palace servant left, Ye Shuyan looked at Xiao Luochen, "So, we have to leave tomorrow?"

Xiao Luochen nodded, took Ye Shuyan's hand, walked into the inner courtyard, and said as he walked, "This New Year's day, these things are entangled, but it doesn't make you have a good year."

Ye Shuyan shook his head and denied it: "Why does my husband say that? I don't feel bad. I am very happy when I am with my husband. Moreover, we will have many opportunities to be together in the future. Of course it is now." The military matters, and if the matter in the southern border is resolved as soon as possible, it will be more secure."

Xiao Luochen smiled, "Xiao Shu is right, the battle in Nanchu is about to start, so it's a battle that will be settled, and when everything is over, there's no need to worry about it anymore."

"Then let's go clean it up." Ye Shuyan said seriously to Xiao Luochen.

"Okay." Xiao Luochen replied, "This is going to the southern border, Xiaoshu and I are together, we can't go fast, if we take a carriage, it will take five days."

"When I came to the imperial capital, I also took a carriage, but it was not in such a hurry. Although the journey was a bit far away, it was okay, and I didn't think it was a big deal." Ye Shuyan said with a smile.

"Ah."

……

In a blink of an eye, the next day, Xiao Luochen left the imperial capital. In addition to the accompanying personnel, there were also some hidden guards following all the way in secret. Inside the carriage, Ye Shuyan looked at Xiao Luochen and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to be with my husband so soon. I went back to the southern border together, although there are other things, but the southern border is the place where I grew up, and I will go back with my husband, so I don't have a feeling."

Xiao Luochen hugged Ye Shuyan in his arms. With Ye Shuyan's mentality, he didn't think that Nanchu's affairs were a tricky matter. He felt good about it. After all, Nanchu's side was about to start a war. However, Indeed, to them, that is irrelevant, and there is no need to worry about it.

All the way, starting from the imperial capital, traveling during the day, resting at night, and going on the fifth day, finally arrived.

Ye Shuyan lifted the small curtain of the carriage, looked at those outside, then sat back and looked at Xiao Luochen, "Husband, we have arrived in the southern border, and the people in the southern border are still the same as usual, why can't I feel that there is no reason to start a war?" signs?"

Xiao Luochen raised his hand, tapped Ye Shuyan's nose lightly with his fingertips, and said with a smile, "The people of the Northern Zhou Dynasty lived and worked in peace and contentment. Even at the border of the southern border, now that Southern Chu has stationed troops, it will not have any impact. Because Han Xun is guarding the southern border, and our army from the Northern Zhou Dynasty is here, the people will be safe."

"That's right, with the eldest brother here, there will be no accidents. Now that the husband is here, and the husband and the eldest brother join hands, even the Nanchu gang wants to offend us, so don't even think about it."

"Yes, what Xiaoshu said is right, they want to offend, and they are too late." Xiao Luochen smiled lightly.

After a while, the carriage stopped slowly, and Bai Yu said outside: "My lord, my concubine, we have arrived at the Junhou Mansion in the southern border."

Xiao Luochen got out of the carriage, and helped Ye Shuyan get down, Ye Shuyan stretched, "I'm tired from riding in the carriage these days, let's go in quickly."

When the servants of the Marquis of the Marquis saw Ye Shuyan coming back, they immediately came up to meet him. Ye Shuyan looked at them and asked, "Where's my elder brother?"

"The general is currently patrolling the camp." The servant replied: "The general received the reply, knowing that the regent and princess are here today, so he specially ordered us to get ready, let the prince and princess have a good rest first, tea, and the slaves let people prepare alright."

"Hmm, is my room ready?"

"Wangfei's room is still exactly the same as before. It has not been touched, but it is just sent to clean up as usual."

Ye Shuyan responded, looking at Xiao Luochen, "Husband, let's go in first."

Xiao Luochen was dragged by Ye Shuyan to the inner courtyard. The house he lived in in the southern Junhou Mansion was clean and tidy, and the layout was exactly the same as in memory.

Seeing the servants following behind, Ye Shuyan said, "You don't have to wait here, just bring the tea."

"Yes." The servants responded, and then brought the tea in, and quickly backed out.

There were only the two of them in the room, and Ye Shuyan lay down on his bed.

Xiao Luochen sat down by the bed, "Is Xiaoshu tired?"

Ye Shuyan stood up and sat up, "Husband, I'm actually alright."

Xiao Luochen reached out and touched the little guy's face, "Have a cup of tea, lie down and rest, and go out when Han Xun comes back."

"it is good."
