Chapter 185: A blind date party
In the Northwest Xiyue camp, Gu Songyue, wearing golden armor, looked at the letter in his hand and couldn't help laughing.
A young man in golden armor said, "Father, why are you so happy?"
Gu Songyue handed the letter over and said with a smile, "Take a look at it yourself."
Gu Xiangjun frowned slightly, "The new emperor of Daxia hopes to cooperate with us to eliminate the King of Yan?"
Gu Songyue said calmly, "You think it's not possible?"
Gu Xiangjun said in a deep voice, "The three northwestern states will be ours sooner or later, so why do we need them to give them to us? Although the Prince of Yan does not have many soldiers and horses, he has many who are good at fighting, and the land they occupy is also barren. I don't think it is necessary. It is more beneficial for us to keep the Prince of Yan and the emperor fighting each other."
Gu Songyue nodded with a smile, "If the King of Yan and Murong Yuan were guarding the northwest, we would not have been able to conquer it so easily. Now it is really God's blessing on us Xiyue..."
Then he changed the subject and asked, "Why did the prince ask you to capture the Princess of Yan?"
Gu Xiangjun hesitated and said, "This..."
Gu Songyue said unhappily, "Hmm?"
Gu Xiangjun lowered his eyes and said, "I'm not too sure. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only said that she is an old acquaintance. In addition, her identity as the Princess of Yan may be used to blackmail the Prince of Yan..."
Gu Songyue raised his eyebrows and said, "She's just a woman, is she that important? What do you think of the Princess of Yan?"
Gu Xiangjun said in a deep voice, "The Princess of Yan is very good at martial arts. That night, I took advantage of her just after the battle to sneak attack her. If the King of Yan hadn't arrived in time... Besides, the Princess of Yan has a very close relationship with the Murong family..."
Gu Songyue's eyes flickered slightly, "Oh? I am a little curious, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have any new instructions?"
Gu Xiangjun shook his head. "Now that the Prince of Yan and the Princess of Yan are together, it is not easy to make any moves. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said to hold back..."
Gu Songyue said calmly, "In that case, you should just follow your father and conquer the northwest..."
"Yes"
In the Murong family's house not far from the Prince of Yan's Mansion in Yongzhou, the family was smiling around the woman beside the bed.
Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Congratulations, second brother and sister Xihan."
Kong Xihan, dressed in blue, had a gentle smile on his face, "This child came too suddenly..."
Madam Murong II smiled and said, "Xihan, relax. Let Xuan'er accompany you well these days..."
Murong Xuan smiled helplessly, "Mother, I know"
Kong Xihan said quickly, "Xiaoxiao, aren't you guys busy these days? Xuan doesn't have to accompany me all day. You should go help Xiaoxiao and do what needs to be done."
Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows and said, "Sister Xihan, I don't need my second brother's help. Now that Brother Hui is here, it's only right for my second brother to accompany you."
Murong Xuan also took Kong Xihan's hand and said with a smile, "There are many capable people in the Prince of Yan's Mansion, and they don't need me. The most important person right now is you."
Kong Xihan smiled gently and said, "I feel relieved when you all say so." Although she didn't want to disturb Murong Xuan's business, she naturally still hoped that her husband would be with her at this time.
Bai Chuxiao did not bother them any more, but helped the somewhat disappointed Madam Murong out first.
Bai Chuxiao comforted her, "Aunt, don't worry..."
Madam Murong sighed, "Xuan'er already has a child, but your eldest brother and third brother haven't even gotten married yet. The situation is not stable right now. If we waste time like this, I don't know how long we will have to wait..."
Bai Chuxiao was speechless. This war could not be ended in a short time. She should wait until everything was settled before considering marriage. Her elder brother and third brother were indeed old. "What my aunt said was true."
Mrs. Murong, who stayed in the house to give instructions, quickly followed out, "If you are worried, why don't you help Che'er and Shuo'er look after each other in Yongzhou?"
Madam Murong was a little tempted, "This, we are new here...it's not very convenient, right?"
Madam Murong II smiled and said, "After all, Xiao girl is the Princess of Yan. It shouldn't be difficult to use this as an excuse to hold a banquet. My eldest brother is a great general, and the eldest and third brothers are also handsome men. Are you afraid that there won't be any girls who like you..."
Bai Chuxiao also smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem in holding a banquet. The prince originally had this idea and wanted everyone to get to know each other, but we still have to ask the eldest brother and the third brother for their opinions. If they are still unwilling... a forced melon is not sweet."
Madam Murong said quickly, "They don't even realize how old they are. Please send someone to deliver a letter to your eldest and third brothers. It would be better if they could come back."
Bai Chuxiao nodded with a smile, "No problem, my uncle is in Shuozhou, it's okay for my eldest brother and third brother to come back."
Madam Murong finally relaxed her brows. "Thank you Xiaoxiao for taking care of the banquet. If you need my aunt to sit down for you, just let me know."
Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Don't worry."
After worrying about her aunt, Bai Chuxiao went to see Murong Yuan again. After seeing that he had recovered well, she returned to the Prince of Yan's Mansion.
Not long after returning home, Chu Tianze came back exhausted.
Bai Chuxiao, who was writing at the desk in the study, was a little surprised when she saw the man suddenly coming out. "Why did you come back so soon without telling me in advance?"
Chu Tianze held her in his arms and said, "I miss you."
Bai Chuxiao raised her eyes and smiled, "Is it really okay for you to leave your second uncle Ziming and the others behind?"
Chu Tianze said calmly, "There's nothing wrong with it. Xiaoxiao, have you missed me these days?"
Bai Chuxiao said unhappily, "You left a lot of things behind, so I don't have time to think about you."
Chu Tianze said calmly, "Xiaoxiao, you are the princess, you don't have to do everything yourself, just leave those small things to the people below."
Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Well, just like the prince, just be a hands-off shopkeeper... I went back to Murong Mansion today... Second brother Xihan and sister have a child, and my aunt is very worried about my eldest brother and them..."
Chu Tianze played with the woman's hair and said nonchalantly, "So, Xiaoxiao doesn't want me to arrange marriages for your two brothers-in-law, does she?"
Bai Chuxiao was speechless, "If we rely on you, then my elder brother and his friends will be single for the rest of their lives..."
Chu Tianze said a little aggrievedly, "Xiao Xiao dislikes me..."
Bai Chuxiao snorted coldly, "My aunt and the others want to use this opportunity to hold a banquet and call my eldest brother and the others back, but I'm not familiar with Yongzhou City..."
Chu Tianze said quickly, "Xiaoxiao, just leave this small matter to Uncle Mo and the others... I know that Song Fei and Shen Tao both have daughters, so Xiaoxiao might as well pay more attention to them. They are both military families, so they are a good match..."
Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "There are many beautiful girls in Yongzhou City. Did Your Majesty really not like any of them before?"
Chu Tianze raised his eyebrows, "How come?"
Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows slightly, "But I heard that a daughter of General Shen used to be in love with the prince..."
