Chapter 665: start

Zhang Shuming's scalp felt a little numb when he heard it. Every time the queen replied slowly, the emperor would be very upset.

"Going back to the emperor, the empress hasn't replied yet, maybe the empress is busy and was delayed by some things."

As soon as the voice fell, Zhang Shuming obviously felt suffocated.

He quickly silenced, trying to minimize his presence.

I don't know how long it took, Xiao Jin read all the papers on the table before standing up, "If she doesn't come back, I will go and catch her back!"

Zhang Shuming continued to play dead.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the border."

Xiao Jin regained consciousness and asked people to come in.

Zhang Shuming took the message and sent it to Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin opened the ten lines at a glance.

The Jin State has increased its troops stationed on the border, and it feels like it can strike at any time from that posture.

Xiao Jin frowned, Jin would not do such a move for no reason, there must be a reason.

"What news did the spies in Jin find?"

"Go back to the emperor, there is no news from there yet."

Xiao Jin lit the letter paper on the candle.

"Let the spies in Jin Dynasty send more people to investigate."

"yes."

At this time, Xiao Jin didn't even know that Su Yingren was almost arriving in the capital.

At dawn, she rode out from the mountains and forests. From a distance, she could see the gate of the capital city which was close at hand.

At this moment, the city gate just opened, and the people waiting outside the city gate lined up peacefully to walk into the city gate.

Su Ying was tired after driving all night, so he rode his horse to the tea shed outside the city gate and sat down to rest.

As soon as Su Ying sat down, an elderly lady came over.

"Does this young man want tea or something to eat?"

This tea shed also sells breakfast, and there are already many people sitting in the shed at the moment.

"A bowl of tea, and a plate of steamed buns."

"Hey, okay, I'll take it to you, guest officer."

Not long after, the aunt came over with tea and steamed buns.

"Young master, eat slowly, I'll add more tea to you when it's not enough."

"Thank you."

Su Ying just ate the steamed buns with tea. She didn't pay much attention to food on the way these days, and now her stomach is so clean that there is no oil at all. When she returns to the palace, she will have to ask He Shouyi to nourish her.

Su Ying ate steamed buns, and was about to enter the city when he saw a man and a horse rushing towards him.

Su Ying saw the official robe on him at a glance. This is the messenger.

Could something have happened?

Su Ying put money on the table, then quickly got on his horse and chased after him.

The aunt heard the movement and ran over, glanced at the broken silver on the table, and shouted at Su Ying's back, "Young master, I gave you too much, too much..."

Su Ying followed the messenger all the way into the city, but after entering the city, she could no longer gallop, so she had to slow down.

"Report!"

The voices of discussion in the court suddenly stopped.

Xiao Jin let the messenger enter the hall.

"Your Majesty, the Southern Kingdom suddenly sent troops to our border, and the guarding soldiers and horses have already attacked to resist."

The messenger's words suddenly made the atmosphere in the hall tense.

Nan Guo fought against Chu State before, and was completely defeated. The incident of coming to seek peace is still vivid in my memory. How long did it take to come here again to kill me?

Xiao Jin had already learned about the deployment of troops in the southern country, and he had ordered to strengthen the troops on the border, and the food and grass were almost sent there.

I just didn't expect Nan Guo to be so impatient to start.

"How many soldiers and horses are hoarded in the southern country?"

"Back to the emperor, the spies found out that there are about 100,000."

Before the Southern Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom discounted and lost many people, after the peace talks later, the Southern Kingdom hoarded fewer soldiers and horses at the border, and now they have mobilized people again. It seems that they are going to fight again, but they dare to take the initiative Here comes the challenge.

"Your Majesty, this bereaved dog in Nanguo dares to provoke so much. It is really beyond his control. I am willing to fight for the country, and I will definitely beat those dogs and thieves in Nanguo to the ground!"

"The minister is also willing to fight for the country."

Many generals stood up and expressed their willingness to be the main force to attack the southern kingdom.

Before the Southern Kingdom surrendered, there was no war in the Chu Kingdom. These generals were almost crushed to death by those civil servants. Now that the war started, they naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity.

When it comes to fighting against the Southern Kingdom, no one is better at it than Xiao Jin, but as the king of a country, he won't be able to fight by himself.

However, when choosing a coach to play against the Southern Kingdom, you can't be sloppy.

Xiao Jin didn't order his generals to go to war immediately, but just called a few senior ministers to the imperial study to discuss.

Su Ying drove his horse to the gate of the palace.

She made no noise when she left the palace, outsiders only thought she was still in the palace.

Su Ying got off her horse and came to the gate of the palace.

The Forbidden Army saw this and stepped forward to stop him.

"Who, the palace is not allowed to approach."

Su Ying took out the palace card from her body.

The forbidden army didn't dare to stop them after seeing it, but because Su Ying looked at him face to face, they were still vigilant and asked Su Ying to wait for a while before they went in to report.

Su Ying is not in a hurry, it doesn't hurt to wait.

A moment later, Zhou Qing followed the imperial army and hurried over.

The palace card that Su Ying took out belongs to Fengluan Palace, and the Imperial Army is going to Fengluan Palace to confirm the situation.

Zhou Qing followed the imperial army out after listening.

"Zhou Qing, it's me."

Although Su Ying changed her voice and changed her appearance, she didn't change her eyes.

Zhou Qing recognized her the first time she saw her.

"Mother... You are the one who is back, and your mother is still waiting for you to reply, so hurry up and follow me."

The forbidden army saw that Zhou Qing recognized Su Ying, so they let them in without stopping.

Zhou Qing led the way, her steps were much lighter than when she came.

The two entered Fengluan Palace, and Zhou Qing closed the palace door behind his backhand.

As soon as she entered the inner hall, Zhou Qing knelt down in front of Su Ying.

"The servants welcome the empress back to the palace."

Su Ying looked at her suppressed excitement and raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I'm so happy, are you sure it's me?" At this time, Su Ying had recovered her voice.

Zhou Qing smiled and raised his head, "Yes, the eyes of the empress are different from those of others, and the servants can tell at a glance."

"Okay, get up quickly and change clothes for me."

"yes."

Zhou Qing got up and redressed Su Ying.

"Is there nothing going on during my absence?"

"Go back to your empress, everything in the palace is fine, the princess and the prince are also fine."

Su Ying nodded, she was relieved that the children were okay.

Su Ying didn't get a good night's sleep on the road these days, so she planned to take a rest while it was still early.

"I'll sleep first, you go tell Uncle He to let him cook my favorite food tonight."

"It's the empress, the slaves are going now, does the emperor know about the empress returning to the palace?"

Su Ying lay on the bed and muttered, "I don't know, I want to surprise him."

Zhou Qing understood and didn't ask any more questions. After lighting Su Ying with soothing incense, he backed out.
