After his blood boiled, Cao Kun felt refreshed and the discomfort in his body seemed to disappear without a trace.

He smiled and came to Xiao Bi's side: "City Master Xiao, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. It is not appropriate to postpone the suppression of bandits until after the New Year. Why don't you take the general around now to familiarize yourself with the environment?

Xiao Bi glanced at him: "We have known each other for so many years, but I didn't realize that Brother Qu Fei is an impatient person. He is thinking about doing meritorious service for Ruoshui City before he is fully recovered from his illness?"

Cao Kun said: "It's just a little wind and cold. Weishui City is not as good as the northern counties of the Wei Dynasty. Although the snow is heavy, it will be gone in a few days."

If we don't seize the time to get familiar with the soldiers, how will we be able to command them then?"

Of course, Xiao Bi also wanted to wipe out the bandits as soon as possible, but Cao Kun still had a sick look on his face. He didn't even rest after arriving in Ruoshui City, and her heart was not that cruel.

Moreover, Cao Kun was used to the cavalry and well-trained soldiers of the Wei Dynasty, so he would have never imagined how poor the combat effectiveness of Ruoshui City's infantry was, so he thought about suppressing bandits too simply.

Even with a good general, the soldiers cannot be transformed in just a few days, so everything must be considered in the long run.

Xiao Bi said with a smile: "Brother Fei, it's better to have a good rest first. After your body recovers completely, there will be many things for you to do.

Those bandits have been gathering in the mountains and forests for decades, and they can't fly for a while."

Cao Kun still refused to give up: "Then City Lord Xiao will take me to see those soldiers. I am really well."

Xiao Bi raised her eyebrows: "Is it really better?"

Cao Kun patted his chest: "It's really good!"

"Okay then, I'll take you around." Xiao Bi finally agreed.

She said to the Hua family brothers and sisters on the side: "Xiaohan, you stay with brother Qinghan and talk, while brother Qufei and I go for a walk outside."

Hua Xiaohan said: "The snowy road is slippery, so be careful."

"Got it." Xiao Bi waved her hand and led the maids and Cao Kun out of the house.

Qingzhao handed the cloak in his hand to Cao Kun: "Young General, you'd better put this on, be careful not to catch a cold again."

Cao Kun took the cloak and thanked him, then said: "This is Ruoshui City. Can you please leave out the word 'young'? It sounds awkward."

"Yo——" Xiao Bi said with a smile: "The general is not here, do you want to turn the world upside down?"

Cao Kun said: "I am doing this for everyone's consideration, at least to make others less suspicious."

"By the way, I even forgot to remind you that my name is Shangguan Nanxiao now. Don't mess up the matter by calling Lord Xiao City." Xiao Bi warned.

"Shangguan Nanxiao?" Cao Kun blinked: "How come you have such a weird name, and it's okay for me to call you City Lord Xiao..."

Qingzhao and Yingshui couldn't help laughing.

Does a name sound weird to you? What if he knew that the princess was the son-in-law of Lord Chunyu? Wouldn’t he be frightened out of his wits?

"Are my words that ridiculous?" Cao Kun turned to look at them.

After saying that, he looked at Xiao Bi again: "What do you think, City Lord Xiao?"

Xiao Bi rolled her eyes at him.

This guy was probably too strictly controlled by his father in the past? Now he has shown his true colors? He is simply more cheerful than Aji!

"You can call me whatever you like, but if you really plan to stay in Ruoshui City? It's best to change your name.

I don’t want to wake up one day and find your father leading troops to surround Ruoshui City.”

"Easy to say? Easy to say...haha..."

"What else? Xiaohan's current identity is Chunyu Yi, the daughter of the city lord Chunyu, and I'm pretending to be his son-in-law. Don't tell me everything with a bald mouth."

Cao Kun's laughter didn't stop for a while, but he coughed violently.

"Xiao...cough...Xiao Bi...cough..."

Xiao Bi stopped and looked at him leisurely.

It was difficult for Cao Kun to breathe evenly.

"Xiao Xiaojiu, you are such a fool, the old prince, the prince, and brother Ziqing and the others...

By the way, where are brothers Ziqing and Zirang?

You have been married for less than a year? You and Hua Xiaohan are both pregnant... and this is the situation, do they not care?"

Xiao Bi folded her cloak and said, "This is really worrying!"

Cao Kun felt a chill rising up his spine, and said with a smile: "Let's go quickly, the sun is already turning to the west..."

After the four people left? Only the Hua family siblings and Liu Xia were left in the house.

Hua Qinghan said warmly: "Xiaohan, if my parents knew that they were going to be grandfathers and grandmothers, they would be very happy."

Hua Xiaohan sniffed: "Brother? I don't want my parents to be happy? I just want them to get out of trouble as soon as possible."

Hua Qinghan comforted her and said, "Don't say stupid things. My parents are nearly fifty and they have just given birth to their first grandchild. You have to give birth to the child well."

My parents will find a way to make sure their injustice is overturned."

"Yeah." Hua Xiaohan's tears rolled down again.

"By the way, I haven't bothered to ask you yet, where are your brother-in-law and Mr. Huan? Why aren't they accompanying you and Xiaojiu?"

Hua Xiaohan wiped her tears and explained what happened in detail.

"...After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Aji followed his second brother to the Kingdom of Jin, while Xiao Bi and I set off back to Beijing.

When we arrived near the capital, we happened to meet the police who were hunting down imperial criminals. After asking around, we found out that the so-called imperial prisoner was actually my brother.

Xiao Bi saw that something was not going well, so she sent someone to the capital overnight to find out the news. Only then did we know that something happened at home..."

After listening to her story, Hua Qinghan sighed.

Xiao Jiu is really the savior of their siblings.

I saved him before, and this time I saved Xiaohan again.

His Majesty the Emperor is so determined that he does not even care about the feelings of the Queen Mother and the Empress, and does not listen to the advice of many courtiers. What will happen if Xiaohan is gone?

She has been weak since she was a child, and now she is pregnant. How can she withstand the torment?

"Xiaohan, what's going on between Xiaojiu and City Lord Chunyu? How could she suddenly become the Lord of Ruoshui City?"

Hua Xiaohan said: "I heard from Xiao Bi that last year she and her second brother came to Ruoshui City and rescued their foster father... who was the son of Lord Chunyu.

This time we originally planned to take shelter in Mohua Village for a while, but Xiao Bi heard that something happened again in Ruoshui City, so she decided to come and take a look.

Unexpectedly, she saved her adoptive father's biological daughter, my adopted sister Chunyu Yi.

At that time, the situation in Weoshui City was very critical.

Zhuge Lin, the eldest prince of the Li Kingdom, Ji Yinzhu, the eldest son of the second prince's palace of the Jin Kingdom, and the young owner of Congyun Villa, came together to propose to the sworn sister.

They all had bad intentions, and they all brought troops to threaten the adoptive father.

In desperation, my adoptive father asked me to pretend to be my adopted sister, while Xiao Bi pretended to be my husband, Shangguan Nanxiao."

Hua Qinghan did not expect that his sister's experience in recent months would be as rough as his, and even more complicated than his.

"It's really hard for you and Xiaojiu. But from my look at her figure, Yue should be older than you. I'm afraid she won't be able to pretend for a few days."

Hua Xiaohan was embarrassed to discuss the pregnancy with him, and chuckled: "Xiao Bi has been worried about this matter recently. Fortunately, Mr. Liang is here, and so are you and Cao Kun. With your help, she can also
