Chapter 480: Departure
After practicing calligraphy at noon, Su Qianshuo had a good sleep in Xu Qing's arms. If Xu Qing didn't see the weather outside and wanted to take Su Qian out for activities, she didn't plan to get up.
It turns out that laziness can also be rolled up?
Originally Xu Qing was the laziest, but now Su Qian is even lazier than Xu Qing, and Xu Qing is called by the emperor and the virtuous king from time to time to be forced to care about state affairs.
It's good for Su Qian, if Xue'er doesn't come to her, she doesn't want to get out of bed.
If she rolls it by herself, she still likes to pull Xu Qing to roll it together.
She doesn't get up, doesn't let Xu Qing get up, and doesn't sleep soundly, like kicking the quilt.
...
second day
The Great Chu Frontier Army is now almost on the line with Zhou Guo's army at the border, and today is also the day when King Xian and Xiao Ye set off for the border.
When King Xian and Xiao Ye set off from the capital, they didn't bring many troops, they just brought the four guards and five guards of the Shadow Guard with them.
Except for the shadow guards, the most elite troops in Dachu are the frontier troops guarding the borders of Dachu. The frontier troops who have been on the battlefield are actually far more capable of fighting than the Forbidden Army that guards the capital but has seen no blood all year round.
Moreover, when the Zhou State mission returned, the Xian Wang had already dispatched the troops of the border states to gather at the handover place between Chu State and Zhou State to prepare for enemy aggressors.
As long as there is enough food, grass, and money, Zhou's army is no match for Chu, not to mention that this time Chu has a powerful weapon like Zhentianlei that can mobilize the power of thunder and fire.
Although the two countries have not yet gone to war, in the eyes of the virtuous king, Zhou Guo seems to have turned into a compensation machine with no emotion.
Before Xiao Ye left, Xu Qing also handed Xiao Ye an instruction manual.
Besides the three long-barreled guns, there were some other small things in that long box.
Yesterday Xu Qing was pestered by his wife to sleep, and Xu Qing guessed that it would be inconvenient for Xiao Ye at that time, and the virtuous king probably would not allow Xiao Ye to be convenient, so he didn't go to him.
Xu Qing didn't have time to hand over the instruction manual to Xiao Ye until today when Xiao Ye went out to fight.
Includes a pair of steel sling gloves, once again improved.
There is also a simple version of the smoke bomb, which is larger than ordinary smoke bombs. As long as the flint mechanism is triggered, the fuel inside will be ignited to emit thick smoke.
Xu Qing also asked Mo Heng to add some spicy powder similar to chili noodles, which can be thrown out when an order is accidentally placed, and it is estimated that it can make the enemy's tears flow out.
Xu Qing did not give Xiao Ye a more delicate short-fire gun, because the power of the lead bullet is less if the barrel is short. It is good for hitting flesh and blood, but it is difficult to cause substantial damage to the armored enemy. .
Xu Qing has already helped everything he can, and the rest depends on Xiao Ye's good fortune.
Xu Qing reckons that Xiao Ye probably won't be able to use these things. After all, he is a heir, the only illegal heir of the Chu Kingdom in the future, and when it comes to hand-to-hand combat, won't he be guarded by a lot of people?
If you think about it this way, it shouldn't be necessary to use these.
...
On the walls of the capital
The concubine Shizi stood by the tower and looked at Xiao Ye who was leaving with the shadow guard, for a long time...
Although she didn't speak, she could still feel her worry.
Although Xiao Ruxue next to Xu Qing was not as full of reluctance and worry as the concubine, she still pulled Xu Qing's sleeves, looked at him and said, "Xu Qing, our army of Great Chu will definitely defeat Zhou Guo." yes, right?"
Xu Qing rubbed Xiao Ruxue's head, and said: "Of course, Chu is the most powerful country in the Central Plains Martial Dao."
The concubine looked far and wide until Xiao Ye disappeared at the end of the road before turning her head to look at Su Qian and asking, "Sister Su, your husband will be fine, right?"
Su Qian took the concubine's hand and said, "Don't worry, Wan'er Little Sister, your son is highly skilled in martial arts, and with the Hidden Weapons given by your husband, everything will be fine."
Look at the appearance of these two people, Chu Huang is not as worried as they are, not only not worried, but it seems that he has already prepared the account room and is ready to count the compensation at any time.
...
When Xu Qing and Su Qian returned to Andingbo Mansion, the servants were changing the plaque of Andingbo Mansion.
Because Xu Qing was granted the title of Marquis, Andingbo Mansion was also changed to Anding Hou Mansion.
Xu Qing looked at Su Qian and said, "Miss, do you want to continue practicing calligraphy today?"
Su Qian nodded and said, "Of course."
Xu Qing took Su Qian's hand and said, "Okay, then let's practice in the bedroom."
The servant who was changing the plaque on the side couldn't help showing doubts.
Master Hou said practice calligraphy, is he serious?
Although there is nothing wrong with the tone and the words used, there is always something wrong...
Xu Qing didn't see Xiao Ruxue come over all morning, this little girl is usually very clingy, but now she can't explain it and won't come over.
This really made Xu Qing and Su Qian not used to it.
But also because Xiao Ruxue didn't come over, Xu Qing and Su Qian could practice calligraphy in the bedroom with peace of mind, not afraid of being disturbed.
After a day of hands-on teaching yesterday, it is much better to write today.
Although Xu Qing is still holding Su Qian's slender hand, the person who carries the power has changed from Xu Qing to Su Qian.
Yesterday it was basically Xu Qing who was moving.
Su Qian was basically moving today.
It seemed that Su Qian had learned enough, Xu Qing stood behind Su Qian, let go of Su Qian's slender hand holding the pen, and said: "My lady's handwriting is much better than yesterday's. You can try to write by yourself. When you are proficient, you can try to copy the handwriting of famous masters yourself."
Su Qian felt that Xu Qing let go of her own hand, the corners of her mouth involuntarily pouted, and she let out an imperceptible hum, then moved the pen obediently, and began to try to write independently, but the words written were like a scripture.
Seeing this scene, Xu Qing quickly corrected it: "Hey, lady, did you forget what I said yesterday? Horizontal and vertical, alas, that's not how it was written. You have to be careful when writing, because you wrote it well just now."
With that said, Xu Qing reached out to hold Su Qian's slender hand holding the pen again, and continued to write with Su Qian's slender hand.
Xianwang Mansion
Concubine Xian was sitting at the table in the kiosk, tirelessly telling Zheng Wan'er what to pay attention to these days when she was pregnant behind her.
Although the fetal gas has stabilized now, Concubine Xian still reminded her repeatedly that no negligence could be tolerated.
Xiao Ruxue on the side listened to Princess Xian talking for half an hour, and couldn't help but put her little head in her hands, frowned her cute little eyebrows and said, "Having a baby is so troublesome..."
Concubine Xian said: "Of course, when the concubine mother had you in her stomach, your father had not abdicated, the queen had to pay attention to more things than the concubine, and she couldn't tolerate the slightest loss of manners. I didn't know the etiquette of the royal family. Whoever made the decision is simply suffering.”
"Fortunately, your father abdicated soon after, and after he abdicated, your father was able to take care of me wholeheartedly, and then gave birth to you. Hey, by the way, Xueer, why have you been at home these two days? ?”
Xiao Ruxue said coquettishly: "Father is gone, Xue'er is afraid that mother and concubine will be bored, so she specially stays at home with mother and concubine."
Concubine Xian said: "Go, go, why should I go, mother and concubine are so big, why are you afraid of being bored, besides, there is Wan'er here, you girl dangles in front of me every day, I am afraid of being bored. My heart is in a mess."
