The army set off.
Han Xin led 5,000 light cavalry as the vanguard. They had set off before the sky had completely brightened.
General Meng Tian led 50,000 troops from Xianyang City.
The remaining 150,000 had already gathered in various places, heading towards Upper Valley, Hance, and Yunxi counties.
Because the three counties were not too far apart.
And the Hu on the plains were very mobile.
Therefore, they could only defend in three directions.
Other than the few big cities, some small cities at the border also needed reinforcements.
This was also the reason why he needed 200,000 soldiers.
Even if there were only tens of thousands of enemies, the defending side would still need several times more people to defend the various areas.
This was also the most disgusting thing about the Hu.
They weren't here to attack the city, they were just here to plunder.
This situation was the most troublesome.
If you can't beat him, run. Once you leave, he will come back.
"We have to think of a way to deal with this troublesome matter! Why don't we think of a way to kill them all?”
Looking at the army that was about to set off, Ying Zi Xuan shook his head somewhat helplessly.
The problem of the north had always been with this land.
As someone who had experienced it before, looking at history, every dynasty had basically gone from decline to prosperity in the battle with the north, and finally to decline again.
It was an eternal existence.
"Young Master, you don't have to worry so much. Our Great Qin has millions of elite soldiers, and wherever they go, not a single blade of grass will grow. Now that His Majesty had returned to his peak, it was only a matter of time before he dealt with them.”
Wang Ben looked at the retreating army with a proud expression on his face.
It was his honor to be born in such a powerful country. It was his pride to be born in this era.
"General Wang is right. It's only a matter of time before we deal with them. There are some things that I would rather not happen to him in this lifetime.”
"Oh? What is it?"
"Some humiliation that cannot be washed away even with blood.”
Wang Ben looked at Ying Zixuan who was leaving, even though he couldn't understand what he was saying.
But this didn't affect his support for Ying Zi Xuan's statement.
If it was humiliation, then it would be best if it happened in this lifetime.
After the army sent them off, Xianyang City returned to its former prosperity.
Meanwhile, in the Wang family's residence.
At this moment, the sound of gongs and drums had already been heard, and the hall was filled with guests.
As the only granddaughter of Wang Jian, Wang Anruo could be said to be loved by thousands of people.
Her birthday today had another meaning.
Wang Anruo was now considered an adult.
She had also reached the age where she could get married.
Old Man Wang Jian had openly invited the talents of Xianyang City. Naturally, he had the intention of finding a good son-in-law.
Of course, there were also rumors that these so-called young talents were invited to serve as a foil to Madman Xuan, who had become famous in Xianyang in just two months.
Although this rumor was already spreading like a god.
However, this was only a rumor.
Even if there was a 1% chance of becoming the son-in-law of the Wang family.
Those who were invited would also rush up one after another.
If he said that he didn't listen well, what if that person was really him?
"Congratulations!"
"Why did Old General Wang come personally to welcome the guests? This makes us a little flattered!”
"Elder Wang, this is my son, Feng Xing. My son, hurry up and greet Elder Wang."
"Feng Xing greets Old General Wang!”
"Alright, alright, please come in, please come in!”
...
Wang Jian stood outside his house. Although he was here to welcome the guests, his perfunctory attitude and the occasional gaze that looked into the distance made him feel a little awkward.
Anyone could tell.
He was waiting for someone.
Seeing this, many people who did not give up wanted to go up and chat.
He wanted to use this opportunity to leave a good impression.
At the very least, even if he couldn't become the son-in-law of the Wang Clan, he would be able to gain the favor of Old General Wang. His future would be limitless.
However, just as they were about to shamelessly squeeze in, two carriages were slowly approaching them.
When Wang Jian saw the carriage, a smile immediately surfaced on his originally dignified face.
The main character was finally here!
"Young Master Fusu, Young Master Xuan is here!"
The servant who was in charge of announcing the guests immediately recognized the identity of the person when he saw the carriage.
He hurriedly shouted loudly.
When they heard the identity of the person who had come, all the guests turned their heads in the direction of the carriage.
Two more big shots had come!
The Eldest Princess Fusu and the Sixth Young Master Zixuan.
These were the two most popular candidates for the position of Crown Prince.
If there were no accidents, the future throne might be between these two.
This was a big shot.
"Old General Wang, I'm late. I'm really sorry. After sending off the army, there were still some things to deal with.”
"Me too. He had wanted to come earlier. But there are too many things."
Ying Zi Xuan still got off the car early as usual, then walked over towards Wang Jian.
In front of him, Fu Su was also affected by him.
He got someone to stop the carriage in advance and then got off the carriage.
The two brothers walked towards Wang Jian side by side.
Ying Zi Xuan wanted to send Han Xin and the others off today.
Fu Su, on the other hand, had to accept the mineral salt.
If this banquet had been held according to the stipulated time, it would have ended by now.
"It's fine, it's fine. The banquet hasn't even started yet. Your Majesties came at the right time, at the right time!”
When Wang Jian saw Ying Zi Xuan and Fu Su walking side by side, a trace of gratification flashed across his eyes.
The two most capable young masters of the Emperor could get along so well. This was what he, as a general, wanted to see the most.
After all, if the young masters didn't get along, many things would become extremely complicated.
"Elder Wang, you didn't let those guests starve just to wait for the two of us, did you?”
When Ying Zi Xuan heard that the banquet actually hadn't started yet, the gaze he looked at Wang Jian with became somewhat strange.
Meanwhile, Fu Su hurriedly bumped Ying Zixuan with his hand.
Don't you know that you're being dishonest?
"Haha, it's only nice to eat when you're hungry! Moreover, they all knew that Young Master was coming. When they saw that you didn't come, they didn't dare to make a move!”
Wang Jian didn't care about Ying Zi Xuan's teasing in the slightest.
She even laughed at him.
Ying Zi Xuan this little madman didn't arrive, so there really were people who didn't dare to eat first.
What if this guy came halfway through the meal?
If he was suddenly happy, not to mention killing people to liven things up, even if he was dragged out and beaten up to liven things up, it wouldn't be good.
"Cough cough…Old Master, it's not fun if you say that! Am I that scary?"
Ying Zi Xuan rubbed his nose somewhat embarrassedly at Wang Jian's words.
Then, he turned around and looked around.
He had wanted to smile to show his courtesy.
However, when the surrounding guests saw him looking over, they hurriedly lowered their heads.
He looked like he was hiding from the God of Plagues.
This scene made Fu Su laugh from the side.
"Alright, Sixth Brother, let's hurry in. It wasn't good for everyone to wait too long. Besides, with you here, I'm afraid others will feel uncomfortable. Hahaha…"
Fu Su stretched out his hand and patted Ying Zi Xuan's shoulder, then waved at Wang Jian.
"Elder Wang, after you!"
Ying Zi Xuan somewhat didn't give up and swept his gaze around once more, only to discover that besides Xiao He and the others who had followed him.
No one looked at him.
This reputation was simply rotten!
" Stay true to yourself. As long as I'm not embarrassed, they'll be the ones embarrassed. Yes, that's right.
After Ying Zi Xuan muttered in his heart, he also waved his hand at Old Man Wang Jian.
"Old Master, please go first. It's not appropriate for a junior to walk in front.”
Wang Jian looked at Fu Su and Ying Zi Xuan whose behavior was becoming more and more similar, and he suddenly felt somewhat curious.
If Young Master Fusu stayed with Young Master Xuan for too long, would he become the second Young Master Xuan?
However, he was just thinking about it.
"Since the two young masters have said so, then this old man will not stand on ceremony! Please come in, Young Masters."
Wang Jian knew Ying Zi Xuan's style of doing things.
Naturally, he did not refuse.
Besides, it wasn't appropriate to stand at the entrance.
Hence, he led the two of them into the Imperial Residence.
Wherever they went, everyone involuntarily made way for them.
Although some people really wanted to go up and chat.
But when he thought of Ying Zi Xuan's name, his heart immediately lost its courage.
This person was definitely not someone who could be described by common sense.
The news of Ying Zi Xuan and Fu Su's arrival spread throughout Wang Jian's residence in just a moment.
In the residence of the family members in the backyard.
Today's main character, Wang Anruo, heard the servant girl come to report.
She hurriedly ran to the mirror to tidy up her flawless makeup.
"Cecelia, do you think there's anything I haven't tidied up? Is there any dirt on your face? Should I touch up my makeup?"
The servant girl Cuicui looked at the young miss who was so nervous that she didn't know where to put her hands.
She wanted to laugh, but she did not dare to.
"Miss, you're already very beautiful. Moreover, there was no place that had not been taken care of. If Young Master Xuan sees you now, he will definitely be so dizzy that he won't be able to walk. Don't worry.”
"You... Cecelia, what nonsense are you talking about? I... I didn't dress up for him. I just... There are so many guests today. I'm afraid I'll embarrass Grandpa.”
"Yes, yes, yes, but don't worry, miss. My young miss is a fairy from heaven. Even if he didn't dress up, Young Master Xuan would still like it!”
"Really?"
"Of course! Didn't Old Master say it! Young Master Xuan had given the jade pendant that His Majesty had given him to Miss. Didn't this prove anything?”
"Don't talk nonsense. This is just a greeting gift. Aiya, no, no, I still have to take a look…Cecelia, don't you think the makeup on your face is too thick?”
“...”
Just as Wang Anruo was about to tidy up her makeup…
The servants in the front yard had already rushed over.
"Miss, Old Master wants you to hurry over. The two young masters have already arrived, and the banquet is about to officially begin.”
After hearing that the banquet was about to begin, Wang Anruo didn't have time to think about her makeup.
After tidying up her clothes, she quickly brought the servant girl to the front courtyard.
When she arrived at the main hall.
The first thing he saw was Ying Zi Xuan who was sitting beside his father and grandfather.
And Ying Zi Xuan's gaze also just happened to look towards her side.
After the two of them looked at each other in the air, Wang Anruo's face immediately turned red.
She realized that her heart was beating really fast.
It was just a birthday banquet, but for some reason, she felt like she was about to get married.
Perhaps this was the love that his mother had always talked about!
But does he love me?
