The Royal’s Little Lady - Chapter 139

When Xiao Heng heard that the mark was not made by Gu Suier, he was a little surprised: “You didn’t make the mark?”

Gu Suier didn’t understand even more: “What mark?”

Xiao Heng saw that she really didn’t know, so he explained it.

It turns out that there is no road in this wasteland. It is difficult to find a person, especially Na Ba Mujing is very familiar with the terrain of the grassland, and knows how to conceal his behavior. Xiao Heng leads a man and horse on this wasteland. Finding is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Later, Xiao Heng accidentally discovered that there were some traces on the wasteland. It was the white brocade unique to Dazhao Yanjing City. The white brocade was torn into a piece of cloth and remained on the wasteland. In addition to this white brocade, there are occasionally gray and black footprints, which can tell the traces of someone staying here.

Xiao Heng led the men and horses, looking for such clues, and finally found Ba Mujing.

That’s nothing more for Bai Jin. Hearing the footprints, Gu Suier suddenly remembered the scene of Ah Chen jumping wildly on the grassland while clamoring for meat, and couldn’t help but wonder.

“The footprints may have been left by Ah Chen inadvertently.”

Ah Chen and Na Ba Mujing get along well, seeing Ba Mujing always happily following behind Ba Mujing, according to his naughty, if there are any footprints left, it should be there.

“Achen?” Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows slightly.

“Well, yeah, when Ba Mujing barbecue was eating, Ah Chen still ran to step on the ashes and jumped around, but he shouldn’t be intentional. He is still young, and he only wants to eat meat and be greedy. How do you understand this!”

Thoughts appeared in Xiao Heng’s eyes, and he pondered for a moment, but he said: “Achen is really naughty.”

Gu Suier was also puzzled about the matter of leaving a mark. For this, she asked Ah Chen.

As expected, Ah Chen asked three questions, and his face was at a loss, remembering that the meat of Ba Mujing was delicious.

Gu Suier couldn’t hear it, so she couldn’t laugh or cry. Later, she asked Xiao Heng specifically about it, but Xiao Heng didn’t say anything about it, so she had to give it up.

Since this incident, I heard that Ba Mujing was severely punished by King Beidi after he returned. It was an explanation to Da Zhao. The Emperor Da Zhao also rewarded this “son-in-law” with gold and silver jewelry. So far, the relationship between Bei Di and Da Zhao eased. stand up.

But even so, Xiao Heng had no plans to leave the border town, he asked himself to guard at the border. Seeing that he insisted on doing this, the emperor naturally couldn’t help him, he could only be approved.

If Xiao Heng didn’t go back, the emperor would be fine, he wouldn’t miss him every day, but he was very concerned about Ah Chen and sent people over several times, saying that he wanted to pick Ah Chen back to Yanjing City. Ah Chen, he didn’t want to go back anyway. He said his mother was about to give birth to a little sister, and she was determined to stay in the border town and wait to see his little sister come out.

Seeing this, Xiao Heng could only send someone back to the emperor.

When the emperor got the news, he had no choice but to send someone to reward Achen with many food and playthings. It was a sign of his love for his favorite little emperor.

At this point, Xiao Heng’s family had settled in the border with peace of mind.

In fact, if there is no war, and the dusty weather is not caught up, the breath of this border is much fresher than that of Yanjing City. Occasionally lead Ah Chen to walk on the ancient vicissitudes of the city wall, looking at the vast desert in the distance, always Let people have a long-lasting feeling.

The sky here is the sky, the earth is the earth, pure and natural.

The people here are relatively simple and simple than those in Yanjing City.

Gu Suier spent the new year here, and waited for the spring to begin again. When the wild grass outside the border town turned from withered to green, her belly swelled like air.

With a big belly, she would be accompanied by two men, Xiao Heng and Ah Chen, for a walk in the yard every night.

Sometimes she looked at two men, one tall, one short, one long and one soft, but they looked very similar, and her heart was full of happiness.

In her life, there is such a husband and such a son, so why is she not satisfied?

“Mother, be careful, there are stones here!” Now Ah Chen speaks more and more sharply, with a small mouth, and his words are as crisp, tender and smooth as a mountain stream.

He saw a stone here sharply, stepped forward quickly, lifted his calf, and kicked the stone directly away.

Gu Suier looked at her son’s caring look and couldn’t help but smile: “Achen is getting more and more sensible.”

When Ah Chen heard his mother’s praise, he lifted his chin proudly: “A Chen is going to be the elder brother!”

His small peacock-like appearance made Gu Suier laugh more.

And when she smiled, she felt that the little baby in her belly seemed to lift her **** and squirm, and stopped to touch her belly quickly.

“Uncomfortable stomach?” Xiao Heng still didn’t like words as usual, but he was very careful. Gu Suier’s casual look made him understand.

“No, I moved just now.” Gu Suier smiled and looked down at her pointed belly: “This one in my belly is also naughty.”

Gu Suier, who is about to become the mother of two children, now has endless tenderness in every smile. The tenderness between her lips and the corner of her eyes adds a moving luster to her delicate face.

Xiao Heng supported Gu Suier and looked down at her belly.

The setting sun shone on his side face, softening the rigid facial lines, and making his deep eyes reveal some warmth.

“It will be born in a month,” he said.

“Well, it’s just this month.” Gu Suier mentioned the baby in her belly with expectation.

“I don’t know what the little sister looks like,” Ah Chen stood there, already starting to imagine what the little sister would look like in the future: “It must be pretty.”

When Gu Suier heard this, she couldn’t help but laugh.

“It should look like you were just born.”

“I was just born?” Ah Chen frowned and looked at Gu Suier questioningly; “What did I look like when I was born? Why don’t I remember?”

Xiao Heng heard this, and there was a rare smile in his eyes. He touched Ah Chen’s head: “Of course you don’t remember how you were when you were born, but Daddy can draw you a picture for you to see.”

“Really?” Ah Chen smiled happily, and immediately took Xiao Hengyi’s corner and said: “Father, you can paint for me.”

The family was talking, but they heard the guards coming over to report that it was Gu Baofeng who asked to see him.

Xiao Heng naturally asked to come in quickly.

In a moment, I saw Gu Baofeng wearing a bright armor with a treasure knife slung on his waist and striding over here.

Now Gu Baofeng is already a majestic young general.

As a vanguard general, he made great achievements in the sniper attack that captured Ba Mujing’s alive. Later, Xiao Heng asked the emperor for his merits, and he was sealed as a fourth-rank left general.

The generals of the fourth rank are not prominent in Yanjing City, but in this frontier, they can also dispatch troops.

In recent days, he has been guarding Yongcheng together with General Zhao Weiran, and he has watched and helped Xiao Heng in the border city.

When Ah Chen saw that Gu Baofeng was coming, he immediately threw away the corners of his father’s clothes and rushed towards Gu Baofeng: “Uncle!”

Ah Chen always liked this uncle, because this uncle spoiled him with everything and didn’t care about him like his father.

What he usually wants to do, tell his uncle, uncle will find a way to do it.

Of course, because these two people fell in love with each other, they were born with tempers.

Seeing his nephew leaped over, Gu Baofeng habitually stretched out his arms and hugged him directly, then laughed heartily, lifted Ah Chen up and threw him into the air.

“Oh yeah yah yah-” Ah Chen’s four short legs kicked wildly in the air, screaming excitedly, and then fell down and was safely held by Gu Baofeng.

Ah Chen took Gu Baofeng’s arm and acted like a baby: “More more! I want to fly!”

Gu Baofeng picked him up again, planning to continue throwing it.

Xiao Heng next to him said quietly: “Achen, don’t mess around.”

Gu Baofeng heard the voice, coughed immediately, and put Ah Chen down.

Ah Chen was immediately disappointed. He drooped his face, looked at Gu Baofeng helplessly, and whispered tentatively, “Uncle?”

Gu Baofeng turned a deaf ear this time and respectfully said to Xiao Heng: “Your Highness.”

Xiao Heng nodded, but asked, “Yongcheng border defense, what progress has been made recently?”

Although the border between Bei Di and Dazhao seemed peaceful and there was no accident, but this was only a temporary situation. King Bei Di had recovered a bit now, and forcibly suppressed a few princes who were eager to move. This was a moment of peace. But King Bei Di is getting old. Once King Bei Di is dead, the following princes, including Ba Mujing, may provoke war and harass the border at any time, and the situation of Bei Di and Da Zhao will change.

Gu Baofeng immediately bowed his hand and bowed his head to tell the progress of the Yongcheng border defense. Finally, he reported: “Last year, His Royal Highness ordered the planting of beans, millet and wheat around Yongcheng. Seedlings have emerged after the beginning of spring, and the seedlings are quite good. , There will be a bumper harvest this summer.”

This is to plant crops in the border city, it was ordered by Xiao Heng, saying that there will be garrisons coming to the front line of Liangcheng, Yongcheng one after another, and the garrison will not be a day or two. If only the national treasury allocates food, only the transportation of food Each item will consume a lot of people. It is better to pay for a part of it in the border town, and also reduce the cost of preparation for war and save money for the treasury.

Gu Baofeng was naturally good at planting crops, so he took the lead and led his subordinates to start farming.

Xiao Heng listened to this and nodded in satisfaction: “Okay, let me go to the study, I have something to show you.”

Gu Baofeng naturally didn’t dare to disobey, and immediately followed Xiao Heng to the study.

Only Ah Chen and Gu Suier remained in the yard.

A Chen leaned over and whispered to his mother: “Mother, look at Dad, Dad knows to scare my little uncle and not let him play with me! Dad is too bad, you have to control him!”
