After lunch, Chu Xianglong ordered his servant to make a cup of tea. He took a sip of the hot tea and asked, ” “How is the princess Consort?”
“I’ve been in the room.” The attendant said.
In that luxurious and spacious room, the wangfei who lived was actually a puppet. The real wangfei went out for a walk all day and mixed in with the ordinary maidservants.
Sometimes, she would even go to the kitchen to steal food, or excitedly watch the boatman cast the net to catch fish, while she stood by and gave blind instructions.
Not only were the boatmen not angry, but they also had a good impression of this ordinary-looking old maidservant. Several boatmen who had accumulated a lot of wealth but had not yet married were secretly inquiring about the old aunt’s situation.
This was the charm of a Princess Consort. Even if she had an ordinary appearance, after getting along with her for a long time, she could still make men fall in love with her.
That was why Chu Xianglong forbade the soldiers from going onto the deck and forbade men from touching the princess Consort in private. But he couldn’t say it out loud, and he couldn’t show his extraordinary concern for a maidservant.
go north as soon as possible and meet up with the troops sent by the Royal Highness in Chu Zhou. Then, we will be completely safe. Chu Xianglong let out a breath.
It was a wise decision to stay in the investigation team. Before they left, even the head of the event, Xu Qi ‘an, and other high officials did not know that the princess Consort was with them.
At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of dense footsteps from the deck, followed by the men’s bold and unrestrained laughter.
The soldiers at the bottom of the cabin all came out … Chu Xianglong’s face darkened, and then he became furious. He repeatedly warned the soldiers below not to come onto the deck.
Did he actually ignore his words?
Chu Xianglong walked out of the room and passed through the corridor to the deck. He saw groups of soldiers carrying toilet bowls and pouring the filth into the river. When the wind blew, the stench assailed his nose.
The centurion, Chen Xiao, stood on the deck and shouted, “Remember to clean the bucket after you’re done.”
“Alright!”
The soldiers responded loudly with smiles on their faces.
Chu Xianglong stood with his hands behind his back, his expression was solemn as he shouted, “”Who allowed you to come up?”
The noise suddenly stopped. The soldiers quickly put down the toilet and looked at each other. They were somewhat at a loss and lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
“Do you think that the law can’t punish everyone just because there are more people?” Chu Xianglong scolded. You like to go on the deck, right? men, prepare the military staff for the execution.”
Suddenly, the sound of chaotic footsteps could be heard. The guards brought by Chu Xianglong came from the other side of the deck, holding military staffs.
“General Ying, this, this …”
Chen Zhao was anxious. He did not tell Chu Xianglong that it was Xu yinluo’s permission because it would make people think that he was fanning the flames and instigating a conflict between the two masters.
Coincidentally, Xu Qi ‘an had returned to his room. He must have heard the commotion outside. If he was really willing to stand up for the Imperial Guards, he would have come out.
On the contrary, it meant that he was unwilling to have a conflict with general Ying. After all, this general Ying was the Deputy general of the North-guarding King and an important figure who held military power.
“Why are you so angry, general Ying? I was the one who asked them to come up here to shower.”
Finally, the Imperial Guards ‘expectant voices came from the cabin, accompanied by light but strong footsteps. Xu Qi’ an, who was wearing a silver Gong officer uniform, walked out with one hand on his saber.
Chu Xianglong turned around and stared at Xu Qi ‘an. He said in an aggressive tone, ‘
“You don’t know my orders? If they don’t know, I’ll tell them to get lost immediately and never come out again. If you do, then I need an explanation.” general Chu. ” Chen Zhao cupped his fists and said, ” it’s like this. A few soldiers have been infected.. can’t do anything about it.. have no choice but to ask Lord Xu for help ..
They were either very loyal or very smart … Xu Qian evaluated in his heart, but he said,”Do you have any place to speak? Get lost.”
“General Ying wants to explain? If you can stay there for a few days, you’ll have a deeper experience. I’ve already decided that from now on, from the beginning of the day to the end of the day, the Imperial Army soldiers can freely enter and exit the cabin. From early noon to late noon, one could enter and exit freely.
Chen Zhao lowered his head and didn’t say anything. His eyes flashed with gratitude.
Xu yinluo was trying to get him out.
After reprimanding the centurion, Xu Qi ‘an stared at Chu Xianglong and said in a deep voice,
“General Ying wants to explain? If you can stay there for a few days, you’ll have a deeper experience. I’ve already decided that from now on, from the beginning of the day to the end of the day, the Imperial Army soldiers can freely enter and exit the cabin. From early noon to late noon, one could enter and exit freely. From Shen time early to Shen time late, you can freely enter and exit.” You can move around on the deck for six hours a day.
This could not only effectively improve the air quality, but also benefit the physical and mental health of the soldiers.
On the deck, the soldiers were overjoyed and exchanged looks of excitement. The wind was strong and the waves were strong. The bottom of the cabin was shaking. In addition, there was a strange smell that made people want to vomit.
Moreover, they had to eat dry food in such an environment. Physical discomfort was one thing, but mental torture was the most tormenting.
“Lord Xu doesn’t know how to lead an Army, so don’t point fingers,” said Chu Xianglong indifferently. What was this bit of suffering? If you really go to the battlefield, you’ll even have to eat mud, and you’ll have to lie on a pile of corpses to eat.”
As he spoke, he looked at Xu Qi ‘an with a cold smile, not hiding his disdain and contempt.
Xu Qi ‘an retorted, “General Ying is a veteran soldier who has been on the battlefield for a long time. But if you want to talk logic with me, I can talk to you.”
After a pause, he took a step forward and stared at Chu Xianglong,
‘You said it’s a war. How can it be the same as usual during extraordinary times? The soldiers under general Hao also lived in the toilet every day and ate dry food in the smell of urine and feces?
“These soldiers are all elites. They train hard and know how to fight. But suffering and suffering were two different things. Soldiers are trained for a thousand days to be used in a single moment.. If you don’t even know how to train soldiers, how do you lead them? How do you fight?
