Chapter 914: Chapter 914-Rare
Xie Xian went home to carry his wife.
It had been six days since he last saw his wife. He missed her so much that he couldn’t even let go of her.
After the mourning period, Xiao Baoxin also changed out of his plain clothes. He painted his eyebrows and temples, and wore a brocade jade dress. He instantly became gorgeous. It was also different from the sharp edge she had in the past. After all, she had given birth to a few children. Her entire body seemed to be covered with a layer of soft light, and she was much more charming.
They had been married for five years, but she still felt like it was her first time hugging him.
I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold you for long.
“You didn’t eat or speak when you came back. What grievances did you suffer in the palace? No, you’re not someone who’s wronged. You can only let others suffer.”
Although Xiao Baoxin’s heart ached for her husband, she still had this bit of confidence.
There seemed to be no one who could make Xie Xian suffer.
Including Emperor Yu Heng and Emperor Yong Ping, they all valued Xie Xian and supported him. There was no such thing as suffering.
“But the situation in Xuzhou is not good?”Xiao Baoxin suddenly realized.
“No, no. I just miss you. I want to hug you.” Xie Xian quickly comforted him. Sikong Xiao was on the battlefield of Xu Prefecture, so he couldn’t be frightened.
“There’s no news from the other side. Don’t be anxious.”
In fact, no news was good news.
Otherwise, rushing eight hundred miles was basically not a good thing.
Xiao Baoxin was relieved. Xie Xian could see that this battle was not easy to fight, so he naturally would not hide it from her. In his opinion, she still had the ability to withstand blows.
He had always been straightforward with her.
.. Emperor Yong Ping had rubbed her so hard that she missed her, the hero of the gentle village.
“Come, practice your fist with me. Although you’re busy now, you can’t fall behind in your martial arts practice. You have to take care of your health.”She pulled Xie Xian out of the courtyard. The weather in February was still quite cold.
Xie Xian had long since taken off his cloak, and he shuddered.
In the palace, the Emperor fed him medicinal cuisine every day, and his wife forced him to practice martial arts every day. Both of them had one thing in common. They were afraid that he would die early.
“Look, quickly move! You won’t feel cold when you move.”
Xiao Baoxin went to the martial arts field to draw his machete and practice.
Xie Yan, who had already finished practicing his boxing, was steaming all over and was already sweating.
He hated practicing martial arts, but his mother loved it. She had forced him to practice it for two lifetimes, and he could not get rid of it.
But now, seeing his biological father’s appearance of being driven to the perch, Xie Yan expressed that he felt much more comfortable in his heart. Not only him, but his father also had such a day. He was in high spirits as he watched. If it wasn’t for the warning in Xie Xian’s eyes, he would have been able to watch until the end of the practice.
“Father, work hard!” Xie Yan cheered loudly for his father.
Xie Qi was already three years old. Yesterday, she had heard her mother mention that she would be practicing martial arts when she was three years old.
After being tormented by his mother, it felt like the few of them-
Even Mother Xie was included. The four generations of his grandfather and grandson could fight tigers on the mountain and capture dragons in the sea at any time. All of them were running all the way to martial arts.
To be honest, he really doted on Xie Qi. He doted on her like a grandson.
However, it was also a little subtle. He was not worried about the lack of people, but the imbalance. Seeing that his mother treated him equally and did not have the intention of letting go of his younger brother, he felt more or less at ease. He did not suffer any discrimination because of his age. His son was his biological son. If he had to suffer, everyone would suffer together.
On the other hand, Xie Qi, who had been a crybaby when she was young, was quite interested in martial arts. It was unknown whether it was because of her mother’s words and example, or because the whole family practiced it, but Xie Qi had long yearned to practice martial arts. She regarded it as her ambition and declared that she wanted to be the best in the world.
Xie Yan thought in his heart, you still know the two words ‘world’, you can tell that your biological father is Xie Xian.
A typical three-year-old child would know what was the world and what was the country.
This old soul of his knew that even Xie Qi’s proper little doll was actually talking about it.
“..”Xie Xian didn’t dare to stop. He didn’t even change his clothes before he started practicing martial arts.
It could be seen how casual Xiao Baoxin was towards him.
He didn’t seek to be skilled in martial arts, but he wanted to strengthen his body.
He also casually instructed,”Tell Ah Yan to write big characters every day in the future. Add another 25 minutes and don’t stop.”
Liu Yun thought, This is revenge from my father. I don’t dare to plead for mercy either. Who asked Little Lang to be so talkative?

Sikong Xiao was leading a large army to fight in the front, while General Yang was gathering rations in the rear, which was a big problem.
After years of war, the various prefectures did not have much grain reserves. It was not impossible to transfer them to the imperial court, but if their granaries were empty, who would care about them? If the people died or caused a large-scale rebellion, it would be their fault. No one would care about it, and they might even be punished.
Those who were wholeheartedly loyal to the court would at most give 20 – 30% of the money. No, he didn’t.
Not only did he not have any, he even wanted to ask the Imperial Court for provisions and money.
War burned silver, and what Daliang lacked now was silver.
Silver was one thing, and there was really not much grain. Not to mention the constant consumption of war over the years, last year there were droughts and floods. Just last year’s disaster relief had been allocated a lot of silver, and there was also a lot of food.
A clever housewife cannot cook without rice. Even if Sikong Xiao had great ability, he was unable to reverse the situation with his own strength.
However, this time, North Wu came prepared to avenge the shame of Yongzhou.
When North Wu saw that they could not conquer Xuzhou after a long time, they divided their forces and bypassed Pengcheng to go straight to Liucheng. They took down three to five cities in a row. When Sikong Xiao sent his troops over, they were in a stalemate again.
North Wu divided its forces again and continued south, burning, killing, and looting.
Emperor Yong Ping followed Xie Xian’s suggestion and sent Wang Zulong with 20,000 elite soldiers to intercept and kill them.
Originally, Xie Xian wanted to personally supervise the collection of grain and fodder, but Emperor Yong Ping rejected him. At this time, the backbone could not be withdrawn. He had to be by his side to be at ease.
With Xie Xian around, he would only be able to sleep for four hours every day after eating the Soul Calming Soup. Without him, it would be even more terrifying than without the medicine.
Xie Xian was helpless and could only look for someone else. After thinking about it, he thought of Chu Yan.
This was a relative of the royal family. He had the ability and means.
“Chu Yanxing, he can.” Emperor Yong Ping slapped his thigh.” It’s him.””In any case, it didn’t matter if it wasn’t Xie Xian or anyone else.
Xie Xian couldn’t help but roll his eyes. This was the Emperor’s bad point, he couldn’t tell what was important and what was not.
He went, although it was dangerous, he would definitely be able to collect the rations. How much was the fate of others?
Duo Fu bit his tongue, trying to calm himself down as he screamed.
He saw it!
He saw it! Thank you Zuo Pushe!
He saw Xie Pushe rolling his eyes, rolling the Emperor’s eyes!
Duo Fu was excited. He had never seen anyone who dared to roll his eyes at the Emperor. Moreover, this person was the glorious and peerless Xie Xian!
It was really f * cking rare!
