Chapter 445: He is not the only one who can fight in Beixiuyan
Xiao Chenyan's heart felt as if a piece of it had been cut out by a sharp blade.
These days, Shen Ruzhou has never given himself a good face. Even when he speaks, he always uses guns and sticks. It once made him feel that Shen Ruzhou, who regarded him as his god and obeyed his orders in the previous life, was really just his fault. Dream.
Shen Mu stood up and saluted while supporting the sick body. Xiao Chenyan walked quickly to the front of the collapse and helped him sit down. "General Shen is not feeling well, so he should lie down."
"Thank you, King Wucheng." Shen Mu nodded respectfully, leaned back on the couch again, and asked suspiciously, "King Wucheng came to visit late at night, why?"
Xiao Chenyan took out the intelligence sent from the front line from his sleeve and handed it to Shen Mu, asking with some humility, "The King of Northern Liao personally led the troops into the battle. Does General Shen have any countermeasures?"
Shen Mu quickly glanced at the information, with panic flashing in his eyes, and replied without hesitation: "The King of Northern Liao's personal expedition will be a great disadvantage to our army."
Shen Ruzhou looked at Shen Mu's shocked expression with disbelief.My father has led the army for many years and has seen all kinds of dangerous enemies. He has long since developed a calm, mature and stable temperament, and rarely shows such a panic look.
She asked doubtfully: "Dad, is this King of Northern Liao very powerful?"
Hearing this, Shen Mu let out a long sigh and told everything he knew about the King of Northern Liao. "The King of Northern Liao could ride a horse and draw a bow at the age of five. He could capture wolves with bare hands at the age of ten. He ascended the throne of Northern Liao at the age of 20. It only took him five or six years to convince the twelve tribes of Northern Liao to surrender. He was In the hearts of Beiliao people, they are like gods."
After listening to his father's description, Shen Ruzhou took a breath. If this man was really going to fight in person, it would be a fierce battle, and the outcome of both sides would be unpredictable.
Xiao Chenyan had heard about some of the deeds of the Northern Liao King before, but after hearing Shen Mu's words, he was still shocked. "At this moment, what does General Shen think we should do to defend the northern border?"
Shen Mu lowered his eyes and thought deeply, then clasped his fists and replied respectfully: "In my opinion, we should report to the court as soon as possible and ask the emperor to send the regent to personally sit in the northern border and command the resistance against the enemy, so that the stability of the northern border can be ensured."
Shen Chumu nodded repeatedly, and then said: "When it comes to leading troops to fight, no one in the court can be better than the regent. The regent led troops to fight against Northern Liao when he was just a teenager, and annihilated the most powerful troops in Northern Liao at that time. Xihe Ministry. Over the years, the regent has fought for our country everywhere, with great achievements and never suffered a defeat. If the regent goes to war, he will definitely restore peace to the north."
As Shen Ruzhou listened to his father and brother's praise and praise for the Beixiu Banquet, the scene of him standing in the midst of thousands of troops commanding the soldiers to move forward bravely and invincibly appeared in his mind. He was so heroic and proud, and his talent was stunning.
Her intoxicated look fell completely into Xiao Chenyan's eyes, making his eyes hurt.
There is nothing wrong with women admiring heroes.However, Shen Ruzhou only saw Bei Xiuyan's extraordinary talents, but never saw his unparalleled wisdom and courage.
Xiao Chenyan's hands hidden in his sleeves clenched tightly into fists, and he secretly gritted his teeth and said: "The enemy will arrive in ten days. It is too late to report to Kyoto at this time. I will do my best to defend the northern city."
This promise did not reassure Shen Mu. He stood up from the couch, cupped his hands and persuaded: "Your Majesty, this matter is related to the safety of the country. You must not be careless. It is best to ask the regent to preside over the war... …”
"Beixiu Yan is not the only one who is fighting in our court." Before Shen Mu could finish speaking, Xiao Chenyan interrupted him coldly, "I, the Xiao family, will definitely guard the kingdom of the Xiao family as if it were impregnable. No matter how powerful the Northern Liao king is, No return.”
Outside the camp, Jian Yu had already heard the conversation clearly. Knowing that this matter was of great importance, she did not dare to delay. Her slender figure disappeared into the dark night and went to deliver a message to Beixiu Banquet.
In the governor's mansion, the governor diligently asked his servants to serve all kinds of delicious food and set up a large table.
Bei Xiuyan only took a few sips of the soup before he put down the bowl, his eyes dark as he didn't know what he was thinking.
Xiao Ruohan was already tired of these delicacies, and he kept poking at the snacks in front of him with his chopsticks.However, Hong Xi had a very good appetite, so he ate up a large table of dishes in a hurry.
"Good sister, if you don't want to eat this snack, give it to me." Hong Xi smiled and stretched out his hand, brought the snack that Xiao Ruohan had poked beyond recognition in front of him, and finished it in a few bites.
Xiao Ruohan sneered lightly and cursed: "You're a starving ghost and you're reincarnated. You eat so much."
Hong Xi took a big sip of the soup from the bowl and said with a heartless smile: "My family has never eaten such good food. I must eat more."
After hearing the reasons given by Hong Xi, Xiao Ruohan naturally understood that they had lived a miserable life in order to avoid being hunted, so he said nothing more and just moved the other dishes in front of him to Hong Xi. "You are indeed my good sister. If you care about me so much, then I won't be polite." Hong Xi still looked like a prodigal, and patted Xiao Ruohan's shoulder carelessly.
Xiao Ruohan jumped up in shame and annoyance, "Who is your sister, and you took advantage of me again."
"Why are you angry again? But your face is still pretty even if you are angry." Hong Xi didn't care at all and continued to drink the soup, his eyebrows raised and his smile getting stronger.
Xiao Ruohan completely lost his temper and looked at Bei Xiuyan as if asking for help. He saw that Bei Xiuyan had already walked to the desk and was reading the secret letter sent from Beijing.
Xiao Ruohan could only sit back helplessly. She reached out to pour water, only to find that the teapot was already empty.
Upon seeing this, Hong Xi hurriedly took it and said with a flattering look, "Sister, are you thirsty? I'll get you some water."
"No, I'll do it myself." Xiao Ruohan stubbornly grabbed it, stood up and walked outside.
Just two steps out, a gust of wind came from behind. Hong Xi quickly moved to Xiao Ruohan's side and pulled her behind him to protect her.
Xiao Ruohan didn't know the situation and was about to ask, but he saw Hong Xi listening intently to the movement on the roof.
She raised her head and held her breath, and sure enough she heard a faint sound above, which was the sound of people stepping on the tiles.
Xiao Ruohan's face turned pale and he nervously put his hand on Hong Xi's shoulder.
Hong Xi turned around and smiled, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
These five simple words gave Xiao Ruohan an inexplicable sense of peace of mind.
The window was opened by an external force, and a black figure flashed in. Hong Xi immediately struck at it with his palm.
The person who came was also agile. He dodged with a beautiful backflip, and then drew out the soft sword from his waist to fight back.
Hong Xi retreated and turned around in a series, and managed to avoid the sharp sword edge. He was about to fight back when he was suddenly stopped by Xiao Ruohan, "Stop, it's one of our own."
Xiao Ruohan recognized Jian Yu and quickly shouted to stop.After Jian Yu stood still, he leaned towards Xiao Ruohan and saluted, "I have met Miss Xiao. My subordinates have urgent military information to report to the prince, so they broke in through the window late at night. Please forgive me for disturbing the girl."
"It's okay, the prince is in the inner room, you can go in." Xiao Ruohan replied, curious about what happened.
"Good sister, can you let me go?" Hong Xi's voice whispered in her ears. Only then did Xiao Ruohan realize that she had put her hand around Hong Xi's waist just now in desperation, and her face turned red with embarrassment. .
