Chapter 46
Chapter 46
After leaving the city, Xiao Chuqian pulled Ling Qiyou, who was still angry at his rude behavior in the car just now, to get out of the car, changed to a tall horse, jumped up beautifully, got on the horse, and then He stretched out his hand, hooked Ling Qiyou's waist, who hadn't recovered yet, and pulled one of them onto the horse.
"What?"
"Sit down."
The two of them almost spoke in unison, Xiao Chuqian smiled, put his hands across Ling Qiyou's waist, tightened the reins, and reminded him in a low voice: "The carriage is too slow, let's ride there early and go back early, or my son won't see it when he wakes up soon." We're going to cry again."
"I can ride a horse myself." Ling Qiyou said angrily.
"Your speed is slower. Sit down. Also, you will arrive at the barracks in a while. You have to change your name, or everyone will know that you are the emperor."
After Xiao Chuqian finished speaking, he didn't care whether he agreed or not, he threw away Ling Qiyou's followers, waved his whip, and galloped out on the horse.
The military camp in the north of Beijing is only more than ten miles away from the city. It is just upstream of the moat surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is a good place with a beautiful scenery.
Xiao Chuqian's horse stopped at the gate of the barracks. The soldiers guarding the gate saw him and greeted him one after another. Xiao Chuqian responded with a smile, and was about to pull the horse in, but was suddenly stopped by someone. There were guards with a slightly higher rank Glancing at Ling Qiyou, hesitantly asked Xiao Chuqian: "General, is this person...?"
Xiao Chuqian smiled and said, "Can one of my general's staff members go in?"
Although he was smiling, his tone was undeniable, and those who stopped him didn't dare to ask any more questions, and let them go in together.
There are 10 defenders in the northern and southern military camps, responsible for guarding the fortresses of the capital, and they are also important places where idlers are not allowed to enter. Of course, Xiao Chuqian, the commander-in-chief, brought in here. Even if someone has doubts, he dare not Say more.
This time is the time when the soldiers practice every day. The sound of sonorous footsteps, sword dancing, and even shouts can be heard endlessly. The soldiers lined up in squads are all full of vigor and heroism. Not flinching.Along the way, from time to time, generals leading troops to practice would come up to greet Xiao Chuqian, and Xiao Chuqian responded with a smile, which was very approachable.
There were also people who looked at Ling Qiyou curiously, and Xiao Chuqian moved indiscriminately to block their sight. The officials who had seen the emperor were at least of the fourth grade or above, and most of them never dared to look at the emperor squarely. Few of them remembered The emperor's appearance, especially now that the hat Ling Qiyou is wearing almost covers half of his face, so even if someone here has seen him, they would never have imagined that the handsome young man who was following Xiao Chuqian would be the aloof saint today.
Taking Ling Qiyou around the barracks, Xiao Chuqian finally led him back to the commander's camp.
Ling Qiyou looked around, there was a wide variety of weapons in the small tent, and the table in the middle was piled up with official documents, the mess made Ling Qiyou, who always liked to be tidy, very uncomfortable to see. He went up and flipped through it casually, and asked him, "Is that why you don't take these official documents seriously?"
Xiao Chuqian smiled disapprovingly, went to the chair in front of the table, and said nonchalantly: "Your Majesty, which of these elders in the army is not like this, who has the spare time to spend time on such unnecessary tidying up, besides, Your Majesty If you refuse to give me the official seal, it is not easy to take care of this 10-person barracks, and you have to report to His Majesty all the big and small things, and if there are too many things, you will be in a hurry..."
Originally, as long as the affairs in the army were not major matters, the generals in command could make their own decisions, but Ling Qiyou refused to give Xiao Chuqian his official seal, and Xiao Chuqian had to report everything to him, every time he went to Seeing that Ling Qiyou had to report a lot of the most urgent official documents to get him to stamp the official seal, many times they almost finished this matter in bed, if the two of them hadn't met almost every day during this period, Not sure how many things have to be delayed.
Thinking of being naked in Xiao Chuqian's arms, being dazedly grabbed and pressed the official seal on these official documents, Ling Qiyou's eyes moved away uncomfortably, but the roots of his ears turned suspiciously red.
Xiao Chuqian looked at him non-stop with a smile on the other hand, and finally Ling Qiyou got annoyed and said angrily, "I'll give you the official seal when I go back!"
Xiao Chuqian stretched out his hand to hook, and pulled Ling Qiyou to sit on him with his waist. Ling Qiyou struggled to stand up, but Xiao Chuqian held him tightly with both hands, so he just let it go and was still turning over the table He sorted out the official documents on the Internet and sorted them out for him.
Xiao Chuqian looked at him with a smile and didn't stop him, feeling overjoyed, the little emperor really became more and more virtuous.
A quarter of an hour later, the table case finally returned to tidy. Feeling that Xiao Chuqian's restless hands had started to knead around his waist and eyes, and his lips rubbed against the back of his neck, Ling Qiyou pushed him hard, Finally stood up: "Let's go, let's go outside again."
Xiao Chuqian smiled, what a pity.
Going out from the back of the barracks is a mountainous area. Xiao Chuqian climbed up the mountain in twos and sat down on a raised hillside. He took a picture of the position next to him and motioned for Ling Qiyou, who had been standing stupidly below, to also come up. Ling Qiyou hesitated. He also went up and sat down beside him.
Xiao Chuqian still habitually stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around his waist. Ling Qiyou knew that he couldn't break free, so he just didn't bother to move this time, and let him hold him. His eyes fell on the rolling hills in the distance. Xiao Chuqian She turned her head and asked him with a smile: "Your Majesty, you just walked around the barracks a lot, did you see anything?"
After a long time, Ling Qiyou looked back at him: "How many of you are there?"
Xiao Chuqian sighed: "Almost none."
The barracks of the Beijing, Beijing and South armies were established by Xu Guogong in the past. Ling Qiyou's father was jealous that they would usurp power and seize the throne, so he inserted Xiao Chuqian into it. When Xiao Chuqian came back from the frontier battlefield, he brought back a dozen of his cronies The generals entered the barracks of the two armies together. Of course, it was because old Xu Guogong was seriously ill at that time that they had this opportunity. After several years of management, Xiao Chuqian had basically controlled the barracks of the two armies. At that time, Ling Qiyou's father I thought that with the relationship between Concubine Xiao Gui and her second prince, Xiao Chuqian would never betray him, but he never thought that he would help Ling Qiyou raise troops to force the palace, and after that, Xu Chongqing returned to the court to suppress Xiao's party. Not one of his confidantes was left, and now that the Jingbei military camp was handed over to him again, it was no longer what it was at the beginning.
"I killed all your cronies, so you don't hate at all?"
Xiao Chuqian froze for a moment, then turned to look at Ling Qiyou, who had a somewhat complicated expression, and after a while, reached out to caress his face: "Actually, although I really didn't mean to be unfaithful to you, some of the things I did at that time were also true. It is indeed a bit too much, in the eyes of outsiders, it is inevitable that I want to coerce the emperor to order the princes, they, in private, really encouraged me to simply raise troops and seize the country."
In fact, Xiao Chuqian never told Ling Qiyou that he was under a lot of pressure when he first took the throne. None of his cronies believed in Ling Qiyou, who they thought was a weak and incompetent little emperor. They are all instigating, bewitching or even forcing him to rebel against Ling Qiyou. He is also very contradictory. His conflict is not about whether he really wants to rebel against Ling Qiyou. In fact, he has never had such thoughts, but how to persuade those People let go of their prejudice against Ling Qiyou to get rid of those treacherous thoughts, and saved their lives in front of Ling Qiyou, but he really didn't expect at that time that he would be bitten by Ling Qiyou in the end.
He wasn't such a low-defense person in the first place, after all, he subconsciously didn't set up defenses against Ling Qiyou.
As for what Ling Qiyou did, from the perspective of an emperor, he was not at fault in the slightest. Those people did have disobedience, and it was not wrong to be executed, even though they were originally Xiao Chuqian's trusted subordinates.
Seeing Ling Qiyou's dazed attitude, Xiao Chuqian continued: "After I took control of the barracks of the two armies, those cronies who followed the Xu family in the army have been suppressed by my people. Although they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to use me It's not surprising that when Xu Chongqing came back, they turned to him one after another. Although these people in the army don't say it on the face, they all know that I am Xiao Chuqian who was dealt with by His Majesty before. Many people are already ready to move .”
Ling Qiyou was silent for a long time, he naturally knew what Xiao Chuqian said, after dealing with Xiao's party, although the right to deploy troops was returned to him apparently, but almost all the people in the barracks of the two armies were friends of Xu's, If Xu Chongqing really wanted to oppose him, at least there would be a lot of response in the barracks of the two armies, and on the premise that these people had no major faults, he couldn't find a reason to replace them. It is also impossible for him to take the opportunity to push Xiao Chuqian back to the barracks.
Xiao Chuqian took Ling Qiyou's hand: "Uncle Xu Guo also has many scruples, the first one is that fellow Ling Jing, he dare not do anything rashly, take your time, now that I have entered the barracks, Your Majesty can take it easy Slowly let other people come in, as long as His Majesty's contacts can gain the upper hand in the barracks, even if he has that talisman in his hand, it will be useless."
Ling Qiyou nodded indistinctly, and didn't say anything more.
"Look over there..." Xiao Chuqian suddenly changed the topic again, and pointed to the mountain road not far away.
Ling Qiyou looked in the direction of his finger, it was the official way, at this time no one was empty and couldn't see anything special.
The corners of Xiao Chuqian's lips were raised, and there was a smile in his eyes: "Back then, that was the place where I first saw you."
Ling Qiyou was stunned again. The first time they met, he sent Xu Guogong's coffin out of the capital for burial. It was at this place that Xiao Chuqian led the troops to visit him. At that time, he could only see Xiao Chuqian deeply in his heart However, the person who bowed his head and knelt on the ground did not notice what kind of eyes the high-ranking crown prince who stepped down from the carriage looked at him. After Li got back into the carriage, the carriage passed him and he looked up, behind the curtain blown by the wind, he saw that overly beautiful side face for the first time.
"I didn't expect that His Highness the Crown Prince would take the initiative to get close to me later..." Xiao Chuqian said, seeming to sigh with emotion.
Ling Qiyou closed his eyes, seeing for the first time, seeing for the first time... The first time he saw Xiao Chuqian, it was when he raised troops in a hurry and blocked him under the city gate, and they met each other in battle.
Looking back now, at that time Uncle Xu Guo had already died in the frontier, and he escaped from Beijing with the help of several cronies of the Xu family. No one dared to help him, the soon-to-be deposed crown prince, contact the general He couldn't even tell whether the other party was sincere or false. To save his mother, his actions were like flying moths into the flames, and it was only natural that he would fail in the end. It's just that he only wanted to die originally, but Xiao Chuqian shouldn't humiliate him in that way.
Even though his reason told him that maybe he shouldn't confuse the events of his previous life with this life, the nightmare that he often had always reminded him that he couldn't forget, how could he just forget?
Standing up abruptly, Xiao Chuqian was surprised by his action, and looked up at him suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
The temperature in Ling Qiyou's eyes was already cold: "Go back, I'm tired."
Sensing the slight change in Ling Qiyou's mood, Xiao Chuqian didn't want to provoke him anymore, even if he didn't know what kind of anger Ling Qiyou was suddenly angry with, he could only forget it and go to pull the horse. However, Ling Qiyou insisted on not riding with him again, Xiao Chuqian couldn't resist, so he could only fulfill his wish.
Ling Qiyou was not as fast as Xiao Chuqian's horse, so Xiao Chuqian slowed down to accommodate him. The two of them had nothing to say all the way, and after halfway on the road, the horse under Xiao Chuqian suddenly stopped suddenly, with its forelegs high. Leaping up, let out a shrill neigh.
Xiao Chuqian didn't have time to recover from his astonishment, his elbows and armpits changed, and a dozen men in black suddenly jumped out of the lush forest on both sides of the road, each of them holding a long sword, and stabbed at them so aggressively!
