Chapter 521: Let me call you Wan'er, too.(1/2)
"It's almost time for Wang Cheng to come over, right?"
Zhao Cuo was sitting in the hall, leaning against the fragrant soft jade pillow behind him with half-squinted eyes, while a pair of white catkins were rubbing his forehead.
He is not a devil. He said he wanted Princess Jinyue to repay her kindness, but in fact he did not do anything to her. How could he, Prince Zhao, take advantage of others' danger? At best, he would just rob her.
Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Witch Clan was not embarrassed by the young prince. She readily agreed to his request to be a maid first with tears in her eyes. She had already taken up her post and was rubbing the sides of his forehead.
She didn't want to know whether she would need to stay in bed later.
'I asked him to come to this mansion every day before I left, but this time it really took too long. I originally said he would come back within a few days...'
The young master suddenly raised his head and looked outside the lobby.
"When General Wang comes, just come in."
He said calmly and calmly.
A faint sound of footsteps suddenly sped up.
After a while, a big man in iron armor walked quickly into the hall.
"The last general Wang Cheng pays homage to the general!"
The middle-aged man bowed his head and prostrated.
There was a hint of surprise in his lowered eyes.
A sudden glance before the salute allowed him to see the beautiful lady behind His Royal Highness.
"General Wang, there is no need to be polite. I have thanked you for your hard work during my absence at Dingbeiguan."
Prince Zhao said with a smile.
"I dare not tell you how hard it is to work for the general. You are finally back."
Wang Cheng stood up, but still didn't dare to look up, fearing that he would see something he shouldn't.
The crown prince's romantic affairs are well known to the world, and there is no shortage of beauties around him, so he brought a witch girl back from nowhere.
As a veteran of the Southern Army, General Wang followed the general from south to north. He was still waiting to succeed as a follower of the dragon, but he did not want to lose his future by looking at Shangguan's woman a few more times.
"I missed the time when I went out this time. Are there any big events during these days? Did General Liu Yi ask about me?"
Zhao Cuo asked calmly.
After all, the Northern Army was not the army he led for a long time.
His eyes and ears in the army were General Wang Cheng who was transferred from the Southern Army.
"General Liu, in accordance with your order before leaving, did his best to hold on to the pass. When he mentioned you to the last general, he also asked when you would return."
Wang Cheng first bowed his hands respectfully and said, then he hesitated to speak and opened his mouth, and then said.
"General, there seems to be disrespectful remarks against you being circulated in the Northern Army. There may be some thieves spreading rumors."
The young father-in-law asked without changing his expression.
"What was the statement?"
Wang Cheng's words did not surprise him.
The commander-in-chief of the three armies has disappeared for nearly a month. This matter cannot be concealed at all. It is strange that there is no rumor among the army.
If there are just complaints and lamentations, that's it. If someone is deliberately setting the pace and trying to cause trouble, he cannot pretend that he knows nothing. Unstable military morale is a serious matter and cannot be ignored.
"This..." Wang Cheng lowered his head, "I don't dare to say it."
"General, I forgive you."
Zhao Cuo said calmly.
"The general has heard some nonsense in the army these days. Some soldiers said that the general does not care about the life and death of the soldiers, and only cares about traveling around the mountains and rivers with his lovely wife and beautiful concubines..."
Wang Cheng said carefully, if these words made Prince Zhao furious, he would be the first to bear the brunt.
"oh?"
General Zhao nodded thoughtfully.
"Go on, soldiers in the army should have more than a few complaints, right? If someone is provoking trouble, they will definitely express their demands."
Wang Cheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and his respect for the young master remained unchanged in his heart. Seeing the essence of the matter clearly is the attitude that a superior should have. The soldiers causing trouble is not for the purpose, but to achieve the goal.
"The general has asked his cronies at the grassroots level in the army. They said that some people are already clamoring for you to return to Beijing. The Northern Army should be led by General Liu Yi..."
Zhao Cuo understood clearly.
"I see."
Some people in the Northern Army were dissatisfied with him, the commander who came from heaven, and wanted to drive him back to the capital and let Liu Yi take power again.
This kind of thing is not a rare thing in the army. Generals have been in charge of the army for a long time. It is not surprising that the generals only know the generals but not the court. The key is whether the problem lies with the generals.
If Liu Yi intends to guide his soldiers to favor him, then this is a big deal, and it can almost be regarded as his intention to rebel. On the contrary, then someone in the Northern Army wants to add the yellow robe to General Liu, the loyal minister of Dayu. In this case
, the problem can be big or small.
"You pass the order and ask General Liu Yi and several deputy generals and generals to wait for me in the central military tent. My return must be kept secret. In addition, you can sort out all the secret edicts and letters sent from Beijing during this period and give them to me.
.”
The young prince said unhurriedly that his first priority after returning was to strengthen his control over the Northern Army, and to appease his close people in the capital who had not heard from him for a month.
Wang Cheng was still in good hands and kept safe the letters from Beijing, and the items were delivered to his desk in a short while.
General Zhao lowered his head and read every letter carefully. Princess Jinyue behind him was particularly well-behaved and rubbed his shoulders.
"Sister Lan only sent me a secret edict once. This was sent a few days after I left for the Golden Moon Khanate. Didn't you stop talking to me if I didn't reply?"
He had read the edict of the Queen Mother, and it was all about business. She never liked to talk about love with him on paper. Well, there was a time before when she put her lips on the edict directly for him.
"This is for Her Royal Highness the Queen, Yan'er and An Le. I'll reply to them later."
Zhao Thief carefully read the letter from his confidante.
Empress Chen and her eldest sister had always been reserved. Most of their letters told him to take care of themselves, and in the end they expressed their longing for her.
It was different when Yan'er and Anle were together. They wrote a letter together, each one said something to the other, which made him feel a little lost. The whole letter was filled with the bold affection of his little daughter.
"Yan'er is still not pregnant. I stayed with her several times before leaving Beijing. After this battle, I will have something to do when I return home."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhao Cuo couldn't help but chuckle when he looked at the letter.
His Hobi is a childish girl who still wants to be a mother~
Wouldn't this fool have to compete with the children to act like a spoiled child in the future?
"Mo Mo." The young master said to You Wan who was lowering his head behind him, "Your Highness is a virtuous and knowledgeable woman."
He was praising Her Royal Highness for not reading his letter without permission.
"Don't dare."
The eldest princess of the Golden Moon Khanate lowered her head and said.
"The general just calls me by my name. If the Wu clan's country is ruined and our family is destroyed, I can't be called a princess."
"Well..." General Zhao turned around and glanced at her delicate and profound white face. Her most attractive thing was her plump and red lips. In his impression, only Quan Xia, who ate spicy food, could have such plump and delicate lips.
Lip, "How about I call you Xiao Wan'er like your husband?"
He said with a serious face, if she had not heard what this little thief said with her own ears, the Witch Clan Princess would not have believed that what he said seriously was such a frivolous and teasing statement.
"No……"
You Wanyu's face turned red and she moved her red lips.
If he was in the king's tent before, he would have become a thief, but now her thoughts are different from before.
After going through a series of events in the Golden Moon Khanate, she had already understood Prince Zhao's character and methods. This man was young and had a frivolous and unruly temperament, but he was not someone who would be loved by women.
The presence of blowing.
"I know that my sacrifice is useless, but I still lie down under you. Isn't it despicable? At least I still have to put up some resistance."
Her Royal Highness the Queen sighed in her heart.
Although she and Kuang Yi were not romantically involved, she was married to him after all. This was her status in the Wu clan.
As a princess of a country, she is not a shameless woman. Since she is a woman, she should not be unclear with other men. This is polite and shameful. After all, she is still a member of the Golden Moon Khanate after the war.
The daughter of a princess and the wife of a great general.
"General, just call me by my name. If you call me too close, won't you underestimate your status?"
She lowered her head and said bravely.
"Why did Wan'er say this?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rested his head on the soft pillow again.
"As a princess of a country, you should not belittle yourself."
He was a little surprised. This Witch Clan princess had always been submissive to him before, so why did she suddenly become reserved?
