"Uncle Peng, are you worried that His Majesty is still as muddle-headed as before?”Qin Duan said to Peng Hu with a smile.
"Oh? What do you mean? Has the little Emperor changed?”Peng Hu's eyes widened in disbelief.
" Hahaha, Uncle Peng, it's really like this. His Majesty has really changed. Moreover, he has become even more wise than the previous Emperor," Qin Wu waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Bird! "I don't believe it. Hmph, how could a wise king snatch someone else's daughter on the street?" Obviously, Peng Hu was still brooding over Qin Hao's teasing of Peng Lili, and his face was full of anger.
"Uncle Peng…"
"Report!" Just as Qin Duan was about to say something to Peng Hu, a long whistle from the scout interrupted their conversation.
The scout came to Peng Hu's horse and bowed.
" General, the Xiongnu have invaded the north city again," the scout said breathlessly.
Qin Hao glanced at Peng Hu who had left on his horse. He didn't say anything, but he looked at Zuo Lian who was left behind by Peng Hu.
"Lead the way."
Vice General Zuo Lian cupped his hands and said,
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Qin Hao saw Zuo Lian only cupping his hands and not kneeling. He didn't say anything, but his smile deepened. Qin Duan, who was behind them, saw this scene and did not say anything. He only sighed. As for Du Yuan, Gan Su, and Wu Zhan, they were supervising the march from behind.
As for Peng Lili, who was still in Qin Hao's arms, her face turned even redder. She did not move at all, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Just like that, Qin Hao and the others arrived at a courtyard under Zuo Lian's lead. The layout of the courtyard was not bad. Although it was not as magnificent as the Imperial Palace, it was still well-equipped.
"Your Majesty, this is the palace prepared for Your Majesty. The war at the north gate is urgent, so I'll go to the north gate first." Then, he rode his horse away.
"Your Majesty, you…" Qin Duan came to Qin Wu's side and wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Qin Wu's hand gesture.
"Order Du Yuan, Wu Zhan, and Gan Su to find a place to station their troops. Marshal Wu Lie will arrive one day. Eat the food we bring with us first. Order 3000 Imperial Guards to surround the entire manor.
" Yes, sir." Qin Duan received the order and retreated.
Qin Hao nodded and waved his hand when he saw Qin Duan passing down the order. Several Brocade Guards walked over.
"Clean a few rooms."
The Embroidered Uniform Guards cupped their hands and nodded. Without saying anything, they immediately walked toward a few of the rooms.
Qin Hao glanced at Peng Lili, who was still in his arms, and raised his eyebrows. He stuck his head next to Peng Lili's ear.
"Aren't you going down? Are you addicted?" Peng Lili felt hot air coming from her ears, and her whole body felt numb.
"Ah!" When Peng Lili heard that, she quickly got down. Perhaps she was in a hurry, but she lost her balance and fell straight back. He was about to fall to the ground.
It was a coincidence that Peng Lili fell down. She was unable to balance her body. Just as she closed her eyes and waited for the pain to come, an arm appeared behind her, and she entered a warm place.
"Eh?" Peng Lili slowly opened her eyes. When she opened her eyes, she saw a black robe with dragons drawn on it. She looked up and saw a perfect face looking at her with a faint smile.
"Ah!" Peng Lili, who understood what was going on, quickly left Qin Hao's embrace. She covered her face and stood facing Qin Hao without saying a word or moving.
" Miss Peng, you're quite familiar with this manor, right? Take me around," Qin Hao said to Peng Lili with a smile.
"What? "Sure," Peng Lili agreed happily when she asked him to take her on a tour of the manor. He led the way with a smile.
Qin Hao smiled and followed behind Peng Lili.
"Miss Peng, what is your full name?”
" Oh, my name is Peng Lili. Your Majesty, you can also call me Yuanyuan." Peng Lili blushed again.
"Yuanyuan?"
"Then does Yuanyuan know how many soldiers are stationed here? Could they defend against the Xiongnu's attack?”
"Ah! There were originally 5000 soldiers guarding the border town, and with the 150,000 soldiers my father brought with him, many soldiers have died in the bitter battles these few days. There are about 130,000 soldiers left, including 40,000 cavalry. Moreover, the Xiongnu are not good at attacking cities. It will be very difficult to take down the border town with 130,000 soldiers.”
"Yuanyuan knows a lot."
" Of course!" Peng Lili immediately giggled when she received Qin Hao's praise.
