The border was so long that the soldiers had already been sent out, so it was reasonable that there were not many soldiers.
“Your Highness, it’s just ahead.” The First Prince pointed to a tent at the very front.
The tent looked ordinary and was no different from the surrounding tents. It blended perfectly with the environment.
After the First Prince brought Xu Bai to the door, he shouted into the room,”Second Uncle, I’m back. I have some special encounters that I need to report to you.”
After such a big incident, even the prince almost died. Of course, he had to report to King You Sheng. Just as he finished speaking, King You Sheng’s voice came from the tent.
“Let the soldiers find a place to rest. You and Xu brat can come in.” Sheng You King was an expert, so he knew Xu Bai was here.
There was not much surprise in his tone.
Reporting this kind of thing did not matter how many people there were. The cavalry were also extremely tired after cutting through the thorns along the way, so only the First Prince was needed.
After receiving the order, the First Prince let the cavalry rest and walked into the tent with Xu Bai.
After entering, Xu Bai looked around and found that the tent was not as spacious as he had thought. There were all kinds of books scattered everywhere, and there were even scattered maps in some places.
It looked extremely chaotic, which was in line with Xu Bai’s guess. King Sheng You sat in the main seat at the front, holding a book in his hand and reading it carefully.
On the table was an old map.
Next, the First Prince recounted what he had encountered. It was roughly related to this ambush. They had indeed fallen into a trap.
If Xu Bai hadn’t come at the right time, the First Prince would have been a corpse by now.
After King Sheng You heard this, he fell silent. After a while, he nodded. “Do a good job in the compensation work. Don’t let the soldiers feel cold. In addition, this matter can be considered an oversight. We have to learn a lesson and don’t let the same thing happen again.”
The First Prince agreed.
Let’s do it first, let’s do these things well. As for how to deal with it, I have my own tricks. I can’t let the Great Yue get an advantage. Otherwise, how can I explain to the dead soldiers?”King Sheng You waved his hand.
After saying this, the First Prince took his leave without hesitation.
King Sheng You waited until the Eldest Prince left before turning his gaze to Xu Bai. He said with a face full of amusement,””Are you a little disappointed that you didn’t see Chu Yu?”
Xu Bai smiled and shook his head.” That’s not it. I came here mainly to see His Highness. After all, I personally promised him when I was in the capital. I can’t go back on my word.””
King Sheng You was delighted. He put the book in his hand aside and even thoughtfully added a bookmark so that he wouldn’t forget how many pages he had read.
After doing this, he smiled and raised his head.”Since you’re here, let’s find a place to rest first. You’re tired from the journey. Let’s recuperate first so that I can bring you to see the scenery at the border.”
“Chu Yu should be back soon. When she’s back, you two should get closer to each other. After all, you’re both master and disciple.”
Xu Bai listened to what he said. The first half of the sentence was fine, but he felt that the second half of the sentence was a little inappropriate.
What did it mean to be close?
Why did it feel like King You Sheng was selling his daughter?
However, King Sheng You did not give him a chance to think. He gave an order to the outside. Soon, two armored soldiers came in and respectfully escorted Xu Bai out of the tent.
Now was not the time to talk about it. Chu Yu would be back soon anyway, and he did not want to waste any more time, so he followed behind her with a peace of mind.
The two soldiers received the order and took Xu Bai away from the place and found a relatively ordinary tent.
The two soldiers knew Xu Bails identity because when Xu Bai was taken away, King Sheng You had called him Lord Xu.
In this day and age, he was a prince and also a Xu. His identity could be seen at a glance.
The two soldiers didn’t delay at all. After they brought Xu Bai to his seat, they didn’t go in and directly left.
Xu Bai pushed open the curtain of the tent and saw the same decorations inside. He knew that the tents in the military camp should be some standard equipment.
Other than being much cleaner than Sheng You King, it looked no different from an ordinary place.
This was the border, not a place for enjoyment. Therefore, it was normal for the decorations to not be too particular.
After the two soldiers left, Xu Bai found a comfortable chair and sat down. He leaned back on the chair and raised his feet to place them on the table in front of him.
This place felt very special. It didn’t feel like a border pass, but a good place to shed blood.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with saying this. It was indeed a good place to shed blood. The border was indeed a place that men yearned for.
“I feel like there’s no reason for me to speak. Let’s talk about it tomorrow. Can you find a corresponding excuse?”Xu Bai thought to himself.
Of course, he did not forget that the main purpose of this trip was actually the so-called progress bar.
However, it was not good to say it out loud when they had just met. Therefore, Xu Bai held back for the time being and waited for the opportunity to do so later..
