Xuan Tianyi forced himself to say these words, after saying it, he regretted it a little, how good would it have been if he had just followed Xiangrong's instructions! Seeing that Consort Yun's side was calming down a little, this matter might be settled, the crisis would most likely be resolved, why did he have to interfere?
But he had no choice but to interfere with this! Old Seventh sent a letter, asking him to think of a way to muddy the waters on this side, so as to delay Xuan Tianming's journey to the East. The reason was very simple, he calculated that Xuan Tianming would meet with an accident on this expedition, so he definitely could not let him go onto the battlefield again. He was not just muddying the waters, he was saving Xuan Tianming's life! He just did not know if this Ninth Brother would appreciate it!
Xuan Tianyi looked at Xuan Tianming helplessly, sighing in his heart. Forget it, a good person must see it to the end, he had heard of Old Seventh's divination skills in the past, since it was Old Seventh who calculated it, it would not be wrong.
"Little Master, think about it carefully, Imperial Concubine Mother Yun has decided on our marriage, this is a rare opportunity!" Therefore, Xuan Tianyi continued to work hard, persuading Xiangrong. "If you really want to observe mourning, it's not a problem, let's settle on the marriage first, the engagement notes will be exchanged, then you can observe for as long as you want, until Feng Jinyuan underground is satisfied, then we will have a grand wedding, how about it?"
With Xuan Tianyi deliberately stirring things up, this joyous banquet ended on a bad note. Consort Yun did not mention the matter of the arranged marriage again, but she did not say that it would not be arranged, in short, this matter was left hanging, hanging in everyone's hearts.
Consort Yun was in a bad mood, Xuan Tianming suggested returning to the capital as soon as possible. But Consort Yun said, she liked Ji 'an Prefecture, so she decided to stay here and not leave. Either way, she would be staying in Chun Palace after returning to the capital, she did not have a proper home of her own, so how was it different from staying in Ji 'an Prefecture's Imperial Daughter's Manor?
With her saying it like this, Feng Yu Heng could not say not to let her stay, so she had no choice but to nod and agree. And Xuan Tianming could not say that he would leave immediately, after all, his Imperial Concubine Mother was angry, he had to stay and accompany her for a few more days. It was just that with this delay, Xuan Tian Hua's army had gotten a little further away from him.
East of Dasn, Xuan Tianming led an army army of 50 thousand troops headed straight for Fuzhou.
It could be said that these 500 thousand people were Xuan Tianming's personal soldiers. He did not touch any of the other soldiers in Dasn, including the South. He even left some soldiers from the Divine Intent Army in the desert to help Xiu Xiu. It could be said that these 500 thousand people only obeyed Xuan Tianming's orders. Even if Xuan Tianming wanted to lead them in a rebellion, they would follow without hesitation.
If it was not for Xuan Tianming saying that aside from him, his Highness the Seventh Prince and Feng Yu Heng would be treated as if he was present, these soldiers would not easily follow Xuan Tianming, even if he had a military tally.
Xuan Tianming led the army very quickly. Ever since they left the capital, it was like they were marching in a hurry, hurrying toward the East. But even if it was like this, he was still anxious and felt that it was still too slow. But there was no other way. With a 500 thousand army moving out, it was impossible for them to have the speed of a single person on a horse. No matter how fast he was, he could only fight for a third of the time faster than normal walking.
Qian Li felt that it was a little strange. On the 20th day of the army's journey, he urged his horse to move side by side with Xuan Tianhua, asking in confusion: "Your Highness the Seventh Prince, hasn't Zong Sui in the East not declared war yet? Why are we in such a hurry? " As he spoke, he turned back to look at the army following behind. Not everyone was riding on horses, most of them were still walking. At this time, the soldiers who were walking were all jogging. This kind of state was like this every day. This was also because Xuan Tianming's personal soldiers were training according to the physical training method that Feng Yu Heng drew up in the future. From time to time, they could even eat the health supplements that Feng Yu Heng gave them. Only then were they able to persevere. Or else, with such a high intensity and high speed march, if it was the soldiers of other camps, they really would not be able to persevere.
But even if they were Xuan Tianming's personal soldiers, they were also extremely tired. If this continued for a few days, there would be people who would fall behind.
When Xuan Tianhua heard Qian Li's question, he slowed down the speed of his horse slightly and also looked behind for a while. When he turned back again, he answered Qian Li's question, saying: "If we wait for Zong Sui to declare war first, they will have the advantage. When marching to war, the biggest taboo is to have the advantage taken by the other party, this is extremely disadvantageous to us. Moreover, the East is the most fertile part of Dashun's territory, the density of the population is far from what the South, West and North can compare to. Once the people of Zong Sui make the first move, it will cause a large number of casualties among the citizens, shaking the foundations of Dashun. "
As he said this, he felt that it was too official and was not strong enough. So his expression calmed down, saying to Qian Li: "There is also the most important point, this battle was originally undertaken by your Highness Prince Yu, the reason why I led the troops in advance for him was to allow him to rest. The wedding was completed in the midst of the battle, it was not easy for the capital to be peaceful, can you bear to let him charge onto the battlefield in the East? "
Using this reason to bring out Xuan Tianming, Qian Li was instantly speechless. His Ninth Highness and His Highness the Seventh Highness had a deep brotherly relationship, in order to allow His Ninth Highness to live a good life, His Highness the Seventh Highness was willing to go onto the battlefield himself, who would not be moved by this kind of sentiment? Of course, if this was said by someone else, Qian Li would definitely think more about it. After all, these were fifty thousand soldiers and horses, if they were led away by an outsider like this, any kind of reason would cause people to be suspicious.
But this person was the Seventh Prince Xuan Tianhua! The one who could not be doubted the most in this world, if one doubted the Seventh Prince, they would be punished by the Heavens.
So Qian Li nodded, saying gratefully: "With an elder brother like His Highness the Seventh Highness, His Ninth Highness is really fortunate." After saying this, he turned around on his horse, shouting loudly at the army: "Brothers! Let's put in more effort! Bring out all of our morale! For the sake of Dashun! For the sake of His Ninth Highness and Royal Consort Yu, we must win a beautiful battle in Zong Sui! "
With his encouragement, the army's morale rose again and their speed increased by a few notches.
On this night, the army temporarily rested and reorganized in a deep mountain. After a day of fatigue, the soldiers quickly fell into a deep sleep, while the people who were on night duty were full of energy, not letting go of the slightest bit of movement.
Xuan Tianhua could not sleep, standing on a high slope with his hands behind his back, half raising his head to look at the stars in the night sky, his expression becoming more and more serious.
The celestial bodies were unstable, the situation of this battle was not good. He started to calculate with his fingers in his sleeves, no matter how he divined, this divination was a death divination. But the strange thing was, this death divination was very strange, it was very different from the death divination he had seen in the past, there was actually a trace of life in the death, but there was also endless death in the life, he could not understand it no matter how he thought about it.
Normally, a death divination was a death divination, it was impossible to show signs of life. If it was a narrow escape from death, then it would definitely not show a death divination. Just like how he was observing the celestial bodies now, the main star that he had always belonged to had already dimmed, in at most three months, the star would definitely fall. But this kind of fall was very unusual, but as for why it was unusual, he could not say.
Frustration rose in Xuan Tianhua's heart, recently, this kind of frustration often attacked his mind, bringing about a lot of unease. This kind of situation where the divination was still unknown was unprecedented, it was the first time that things were not within his calculations and control, this made Xuan Tianhua feel uneasy, but he did not have any better ideas, he could only pray silently, hoping that things would not go out of control to the point of no return.
He was not afraid of death, he was only afraid that this death would not be able to exchange for a lifetime of peace for the people he cared about.
In Ji 'an Prefecture, Xuan Tianming was held back by a matter, delayed for five days, he was still unable to leave. Every time he had already decided to leave, that old fourth, Xuan Tian Yi, would rush to the imperial daughter's manor at that time to cause a ruckus, causing the anger that Imperial Concubine Yun had managed to quell to rise once more. Once Consort Yun became angry, Xuan Tianming would not be able to leave.
Speaking of staying in Ji 'an Prefecture and not leaving, there was one person who was quite happy, that was Bai Ze, who was at Xuan Tianming's side.
He was Xuan Tianming's personal attendant, always at Xuan Tianming's side, but he still had a sweetheart in his fief! Bai Ze and Bai Furong were in a long-distance relationship for many years, they could only communicate with each other through letters, this made the hot-blooded young man very anxious, he hated that he could not immediately marry Bai Furong and bring her home.
This time, he finally came to his fief, Xuan Tianming did not have any intention of leaving for a while, but Bai Ze was overjoyed, specially asking for leave from his master, running over to the Bai family's residence every day.
It had to be said that the relationship between Bai Ze and Bai Furong was one that had been forged through trials and tribulations, so it was naturally very deep. But Craftsman Bai was thinking a little more. He always felt that Furong's identity was special. Now that he had heard that there was trouble in the East, Duan Mu An Guo had actually gotten involved. This caused him to recall the matters that had occurred in Qian Zhou. He feared that this matter would implicate his own daughter, and he feared that Bai Ze would one day go back on his words and do something bad to his own daughter.
This sort of worry was expressed on his face, Bai Ze was naturally able to see it, but he had already put his heart and soul into Furong, thus he only said to Bai Furong in response to Craftsman Bai's worries: "The promises that I make now are all empty words, your father will not believe them. Our Princess once said something, she said, no matter what kind of person a girl marries, it is a risk. You don't know what will happen tomorrow, living in the present, you will never know if that person will treat you well or badly in the next moment. But a person can't not marry for the rest of their life because of this sort of fear, right? Since it is all a risk, then choose the person that you love the most to take this risk. Either way, you will have a better chance of success than marrying someone else. Right now, the situation in the East is not stable, and I will be heading East very quickly with Master. Just wait a little longer for me, when I return victorious, I will definitely personally send a large betrothal gift and marry you into my family. "
As Bai Ze spoke, he was very excited and said: "You still don't know, right! Princess helped me choose an independent residence in the capital. After we get married, I will no longer need to live in the Imperial Palace Yu. Furong, don't worry, the people that follow Master all have a principle, and that is, men do not take concubines, and women do not become concubines. I have married you, and you will be my, Bai Ze's, only woman! "
On this side, Bai Ze was looking forward to the future for Furong, and on the other side, there was a person standing awkwardly in front of Feng Yu Heng, with a sour expression. No matter what Feng Yu Heng said, he would repeatedly shake his head … …
