Xinping's eyes lit up, and then he looked at this person with a fresh face.

She blinked: "Who are you?"

The little servant smiled and said, "Little man Jia Si."

Xinping said: "Why haven't this princess seen you before?"

That Jia Si looked to be in his early twenties, his skin was very dark, his nose and mouth were pointed and protruding, and he looked like a formed weasel. He smiled and said: "What is the status of Your Highness Princess, how can you meet such a lowly person as Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan is a person from the government office, and he only comes to the South Court to do some rough work, and he can't get Xiao Yuan's turn on weekdays. Serve at Her Royal Highness's side."

Xinping nodded.

These people live in the South Courtyard. Although there are palace maids and eunuchs with them, it is not enough for them to serve in such a big place. Therefore, Cui Yuanmei has arranged some servant girls in advance. However, these people cannot approach the emperor. , Concubine and Princess can only do some rough work on the outside, so it's no wonder that I haven't seen him.

Xinping said again: "How do you know that this princess wants to see the war outside?"

That Jia Si apologized and said with a smile: "In this South Courtyard, who doesn't know that Her Royal Highness is the most stubborn person, in fact, the common people in Yongzhou City deeply hate the people of Yueguo, but the order of the imperial court, everyone dare not speak out, and work hard. It doesn’t hurt to send the food that we have planted for a year and send it to the gutter for people. In fact, we have long been looking forward to fighting a war, so that the Vietnamese people know how good we are.”

"..."

"Everyone knows that Her Royal Highness is the most sympathetic to the people, so everyone respects you very much."

Heart winked.

She has been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child, and she has heard too many nice words, so these flattering words did not make her happy, she just said: "This princess is asking you, how do you know what this princess thinks? Go see the battle outside the city."

That Jia Si did not expect that the princess is not very big, but it is not so easy to please.

He accompanied him with a smile and said, "Isn't that what Your Highness is not sleeping so late and looking at Nanbian?"

It was only then that Xin Ping noticed that not only did he keep standing on tiptoes, he even stretched his neck longer than usual.

She coughed twice, and then said angrily: "What's the use of thinking, but I can't see it."

Then Jia Si smiled and said, "His Royal Highness is the eldest princess whom the emperor loves the most. If you don't want it, why would you want to go and see the war outside?"

Xinping became more and more unhappy, and said, "So many people follow me."

"..."

"How could they let this princess go outside to watch the war."

That Jia Siyi pair of small eyes flashed a little bit of light, and said with a smile: "Can they still grow on Her Royal Highness?"

Hearing this, Xinping's eyes widened.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps from behind, it was Chuyun coming back, and Jia Si immediately apologized and said with a smile: "Oh, the little one has lost his head, why did you come to the princess and talk nonsense, Your Highness forgive me crime."

After saying that, he turned and ran.

"Hey--"

Xinping wanted to say something, but then Jia Si had already run away, and Chuyun came over with a bowl of sour soup and saw Xinping standing alone in the yard, looking lost, and said strangely: "Your Highness, Who were you talking to just now?"

Xinping said: "No."

"no?"

Chu Yun was extremely cautious, and walked over to look outside the door, only to hear the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, and Xinping said impatiently: "Don't be suspicious, I won't drink that soup. , you fell."

After he finished speaking, he went back to his room.

Chuyun looked at the dark night in front of him with some doubts, turned around and left without saying anything.

This is the first war between the two countries more than ten years after the conclusion of the peace agreement. Although the scale of the war is not large, the sense of oppression that the mountains and rains are about to come and the wind is also doomed that many people will be unable to sleep this night, even , even the military camps on both sides.

Fearing that the other party would attack at night, the camp outside the city of Yongzhou lit torches all night, and more than half of the soldiers stayed up all night.

However, the night passed quietly.

And early the next morning, before it was even dawn, the army got news that the Yue Kingdom had assembled a large group to attack Yongzhou City.

This time, it was clear that it was aimed at the Emperor of the Yan Kingdom, the imperial concubine and others in the city.

The people in the army naturally did not dare to be neglected. Although they had not fought with the people of Yue for more than ten years, the people here knew all about the war more than ten years ago. Although Yongzhou City was not A big city like Jinling and Peiping, but as a border city, it is still strong and well-defended. In particular, although the past ten years have been peacefully spent, the court has been allocating money to Yongzhou to build the city wall. Today's Yongzhou The city wall is more than ten feet taller than before.

In a siege battle, even if the city wall is only one foot higher, it will increase the odds of winning by at least 30%.

Therefore, it is even more difficult for the soldiers of Vietnam who have not experienced war for more than ten years and have neglected their training to attack such a city.

However, they can't really make it to the edge of the city.

After all, the emperor, his concubine, and the eldest princess were all in the city. If the Yue people were allowed to hit the city gate, it would be their dereliction of duty.

Xiang Yuanbo immediately led the troops and went out to intercept them.

As a result, the two sides fought again on the steep north slope.

This time, the news reached the South Court faster than last night. When Zhu Feng received the battle report, Nan Yan was also sitting beside him. She immediately stretched her neck, wishing to put her eyes on the battle report.

However, Zhu Feng only glanced at it and threw it to Xiao Shunzi for him to deal with.

Not even to say a word.

Nan Yandao: "Your Majesty...?"

Zhu Feng looked up at her: "What?"

Nan Yandao: "How is it?"

Zhu Feng said calmly: "What can I do, or it's just a fight."

Nan Yan couldn't help frowning.

What he said casually and lightly, as if he was talking about his own child and the child next door pulling their hair and pulling their clothes, but, after all, this is a war between the two countries, how can you take it so lightly?

Nan Yandao: "The emperor won't go and see?"

Zhu Feng said lightly: "Such a petty fight, do you need me to see it?"

Nan Yan's brows tightened even more.

Compared with the contempt for the enemy and the emphasis on strategy in the past, this time, Zhu Feng seemed to be a little too flippant, and this flippant didn't seem like he was in control of everything, but it was like—

Seeing her frowning frown, Zhu Feng said, "What are you worried about?"

Nan Yandao: "The concubine is worried—"

But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a sudden sound of heavy and hasty footsteps outside, as if someone was rushing over.

Nan Yan couldn't help but ask, "Who?"
