Yanjing's Military Affairs Bureau is the busiest these days, there are too many things in the northern theater after the war, hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war also need to be properly settled, and the placement of civilians in the northern provinces Duke Tulip's strategy of luring the enemy into the deep has worked wonders, but how to recover afterwards is not Luo Di's business.
There is still news coming to Yanjing, some of which are good and some are bad.
Good news comes from the northwest, the Northwest Army under the leadership of General Eliho, the new star of the empire, stubbornly repelled the invasion of the Great Moon Kingdom Rogenthal, Eliho in the last Trier Fort after the big victory, Rochenthal was unwilling to lose, once again led the army to attack the Watt Fortress, Elliot's Northwest Army and the steppe cavalry fought under the Watt Fortress, both sides suffered losses to each other, and finally Rochenthal returned in vain, but Elliot played a trick again on the way to the other party's retreat, The 10,000 light cavalry ambushes sent to ambush the baggage team of the Great Moon Kingdom in the middle of the road are said to be "ambushes", but rather a "harassment".
After all, less than 10,000 light cavalry could not pose any threat to the tens of thousands of troops of the Great Moon Kingdom.
What's more, the light cavalry of the Northwest Army is really much worse than the steppe iron cavalry in terms of strength.
But Gislent, the commander of the 10,000 cavalry, was an excellent commander, and he led his men to accomplish the tasks assigned by General Eliho.
By the time Rochenthal's rescuers arrived, the cavalry in the imperial ambush had already retreated, leaving only more than half of the attacked baggage team with more than half of its supplies burned.
After the end of the Northern Holy War, the Second Northwest War finally ended.
Having lost the Rolanders, allies on the battlefield, the Great Moon Kingdom wisely asked for peace with the Empire.
But this time, the conditions for peace depend on how this guy Old Skeleton blackmails the Great Moon Kingdom.
In addition to the news of the victory in the northwest, another major news in Yanjing is: Duke Tulip has taken leave of absence from His Majesty, left Yanjing and returned to his fiefdom Xilin Province to recuperate, and everyone is speculating that Duke Tulip's injury may be more serious than imagined.
Such news made the people in Yanjing a little uneasy, but fortunately, the news of the victory in the northwest slightly diluted the atmosphere.
Finally, three days later, Duke Tulip and his beautiful sister left the Duke Tulip Mansion in Yanjing, of course, which has now become the "Duke Tulip Imperial Marshal's Mansion".
Guarded by a group of wolf tooth troops and a team of royal guards, they left Yanjing and headed for Xiqiu, the capital of Xilin Province.
The Wolf Tooth Army is already a cavalry regiment directly under Duke Tulip, and there is naturally nothing wrong with a team of Wolf Tooth Army escorts, but the escort of a team of Royal Guards is a little surprising to people.
His Majesty the Emperor seems to be really interested in the Tulip family, and actually let the guards who specialize in guarding the royal family to defend the Duke of Tulip, while in contrast, the Marquis of Caroline received more detailed information about the captain of the royal guard of 2,000 people, who is the trusted court warrior, His Excellency Viscount Rodi "It seems that His Majesty's wooing of the Tulip family is being carried out in another way" The old fox's expression was a little complicated.
Miro frowned: "Uncle, do you want me to send someone to check this Roddy carefully" The old fox shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Check don't forget, he is His Majesty the Emperor's person and maybe it is hum, check him, you can guarantee that you will not be discovered by others when you check him, if His Majesty the Emperor finds out that we are investigating Luo Di, then what will His Majesty think about this kind of thing, it can't be checked It involves the royal family, you know, you have to treat it as if you don't know, you don't know, it's better not to ask more" Dressed in the armor of a Royal Guard officer, Roddy rode through the middle of the procession, flanked by officers and soldiers of the Royal Guard, who were not familiar to him, and in a matter of days, he became their boss.
Obviously, these people have a lot of respect for Roddy, even a little awe.
In fact, since that day's award ceremony, rumors about this young imperial hero have spread at a very fast speed, and although this kind of news cannot be openly written in the newspapers, it has quickly spread to every corner of Yanjing.
At this moment, even many officers and soldiers of the Royal Guard couldn't help but wonder that this young boss might really have any "relative" relationship with His Majesty the Emperor, after all, among the nobles or royal families in the upper echelons of the empire, which of these high-ranking people is not a mistress, there are many women, and there are countless illegitimate children, and it is not a bizarre thing.
It's just that His Majesty the Emperor has done such a hidden job, which is admirable The clouds hang in the east, and the clouds fall red like fire in the west.
The clouds in the sky are flat three-point corner vision, like a huge blue-gray sand tent, suspended in the air.
Roddy took a deep breath, looked at the wonders of the sky in a relaxed mood, and then let out a long sigh.
Finally leaving Yanjing made him feel a lot more relaxed.
From the beginning of the war to the present, he has not had any time to rest, and now it is rare to have a free time, there is no nobles who are looking at him in Yanjing around him, there is no war, there is no intrigue, just accompany his beloved woman to Xilin "Duke Tulip" to recuperate, and he will regard it as a rare vacation Just thinking about his thoughts, a horse behind him caught up, and immediately a guard from the Duke's Mansion ran to Luo Di's side, and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency Luo Di, Lord Duke, please go to the carriage to meet him" Roddy nodded, but there was a smile in his eyes.
With the envious gaze of everyone, Roddy turned his horse's head and ran towards the back of the line.
A huge carriage was in the middle of the procession, specially modified, with a wide carriage two or three times the size of an ordinary carriage, and the windows were sealed, for the Duke was not healed from his wounds, and he could not see the wind The coachman who drove the carriage, as well as the dozen or so soldiers of the Wolf Tooth Army guarding around the carriage, were all Duke Tulip's personal personal troops, and these were all warriors transformed by the blood clan.
The people of the Wolf Tooth Army and the Royal Guard from afar all looked at Luo Di with envy, it seems that the Duke really appreciates this young man, everyone has not seen the Duke for a long time, but only this young man, every day the Duke has to call him into the carriage and talk for a long time, but this is not too strange, everyone knows that this young Viscount was originally the Duke's personal deputy captain, and is naturally the Duke's henchman.
Roddy took a deep breath and knocked lightly on the carriage door.
Then the car door slowly opened a little, a pair of white hands gently pulled the door, and a beautiful face emerged from behind the door.
Nicole looked at Roddy tenderly and smiled, "Come in, Lord Roddy." ” The car door was closed, and Nicole was already snuggled in Roddy's arms.
Roddy hugged Nicole, sniffed the fragrance of her hair gently, then held her face and whispered, "Why are you calling me in again, it's not safe."
Isn't it said that it will make others suspicious, and when we get to Xiqiu, we will have more opportunities to meet. ” Nicole shook her head, with a reluctant expression on her face: "Don't you know, I'm suffocated in this carriage alone, and I have to say that I take care of the Duke in the carriage, alas, I can't even open the window" Speaking of this, Nicole raised her head, and her big eyes flashed with tenderness: "I want you to accompany me" Luo Di's heart softened, looking at the delicate face in front of him, he couldn't help but lean in and kiss it gently, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I'll accompany you."
He smiled very easily, and said softly: "The scenery outside is really good, we have entered Xilin Province, alas, this fief of the Tulip family is a good place, I just passed a big river, and the scenery there is very beautiful." ” Nicole smiled and leaned lightly on Roddy's chest, and the two sat in the carriage and hugged each other.
Nicole closed her eyes, backhanded the landlord Roddy's waist, like a lazy cat, and whispered: "Big river, it must be Tuotuo River."
This is the largest river in Xilin, I used to play here when I was a child, I remember that my father used to bring us over" Although she closed her eyes, she had a sweet smile on her face: "When I was young, I liked to run barefoot on the river, the river water was clear and cool" Roddy stroked her hair lightly and smiled, "Well, that must be very pretty." ” Nicole opened her eyes: "How do you know it's beautiful, and you've never seen it." ” Roddy rolled his eyes and grinned, "I mean, your feet must be very beautiful, I haven't seen that river, but I can see your feet."
Nicole had red clouds on her cheeks, bit her lip, and scolded with a low laugh: "You learned the old Roddy badly, you can't say such things" "Hehe" Roddy smiled: "Is it bad to say that when you kicked me before, I had already seen your feet" Speaking of this, looking at Nicole's shy face, her nose was full of the fragrance of a girl's body, Roddy couldn't help but hold her with one hand, but the other hand reached out to Nicole's foot, and smiled: "That's, it's this foot, you didn't kick me with this foot at the beginning" Nicole was about to refute, when she suddenly felt that her foot was grabbed by the other party's hand, and she couldn't help but snort, but she didn't struggle, but her face was red and almost bleeding, and she glanced at Roddy, and said: "You were just a thief who broke into my house, I didn't kick you, are you still?"
She was only halfway through her speech, and her mouth was already gagged.
Roddy was already pressed against her, and couldn't help but ravage the other party's soft lips to his heart's content.
I don't know how long it took, but Nicole finally gasped: "You're too bold, there are so many people outside, aren't you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of, this carriage is so thick, who can hear it, you let me come in to accompany you, can we just sit here and chat" Luo Di smiled in a low voice, and then his face gradually became serious, and he said: "Nicole, I'm afraid I know that you are very stuffy here, but soon, when we get to Xiqiu, we can be together."
When the time comes, I will use Roddy's identity to openly pursue you, and then we will be together, and it will be above board."
"Phew" Nicole took a sip, gritted her teeth and said: "Is it rare to be public" It's just that her face is flushed at the moment, her eyes are watery, there are three points of fake anger in her eyes, but there are seven points of shyness, but this look doesn't know how tempting it is, Roddy couldn't help but kiss her lightly on the lips, and whispered: "Then I'm out" "Don't" Nicole frowned, grabbing Roddy's clothes with both hands.
She sighed: "You don't know, when you were in the north, I couldn't sleep well every night, and when I was worried about your safety in the north in Yanjing, you ran to the palace again, and you couldn't be by my side all the time, I was in the room every day, nominally accompanying the duke's brother, but in fact, I was alone in the room, and I was suffocated."
Luo Di smiled bitterly: "That's no way, I don't take a carriage to see you every day, it's ridiculous, others think it's some court medical officer sent by the emperor."

Nicole shook her head: "Anyway, when I get to Xiqiu, I want you to accompany me every day, say accompany me, accompany me every night" When it came to "night and night", her face turned red, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito.
Luo Di couldn't help but tremble in his heart, looking at Nicole's face full of red glow, his breathing gradually became shorter, and the hand holding Nicole couldn't help but get tighter and tighter, and kissed her on the mouth fiercely, before he whispered: "What are you talking about" Nicole shook her head, although shy, but her gaze was firm: "I don't care, I just want to be your woman when you fight, I and I will worry about you tomorrow" Roddy took a deep breath: "You are my woman, no one can snatch it" The two hugged each other like this for a while, Luo Di knew that if he didn't leave, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold it, so he cleared his throat and said with a wry smile: "Okay, I'm going out, you sit patiently, and you will be in Xiqiu soon." ” Nicole nodded, sat up from his arms, then took out a silver bottle and handed it over, and said in a low voice: "This is today's potion, this is the last bottle, drink it, and your voice can completely change."
In the future, you won't have to worry that people who know you well will hear your voice like Duke Tulip. ” Luo Di took it, raised his neck and swallowed the potion, and said with a wry smile: "This thing is very bitter, much more bitter than the potion you made me drink in the first place."
Nicole glanced at him: "I made your voice like Seth, and that kind of potion made people sick when I drank it, and now I can't bear to let you suffer that kind of pain, so I used a lot of thought to make this medicine" Roddy licked his lips and frowned: "But it's really bitter, it's not good to be so bitter, you have to order something sweet" Ignoring Nicole's exclamation, he pecked her the mouth before laughing: "That's right, bitter first and then sweet." ” In this way, every day is "bitter first and then sweet", and the team came all the way to Xiqiu City, the capital of Xilin To be continued:
