Tens of thousands of troops invaded the Sword Valley, and even if the Sword God was reborn, there was no way he could withstand it.

Qin Xiao knew that the two methods mentioned by the princess would indeed bring disaster to Sword Valley, but no matter which method was used, it would be extremely difficult for the prime minister or even the saint.

In today's world, there are only a handful of ninth-grade grandmasters. As the princess said, it is absolutely impossible for these few grandmasters to go to Sword Valley to kill for the sake of the Prime Minister's personal enmity.

As for mobilizing troops and horses to fight in Sword Valley, given the current situation, it is simply a pipe dream.

Xiling, which lies between the Tang Empire and the Wutuo Khanate, has now become independent. Li Tuo even recognized the traitor as his father and Wutuo Khan as his godfather. Under such a situation, the troops of the Tang Dynasty did not need to leave the Kunlun Pass, they only had to step into it.

The boundaries of Xiling will be blocked.

Li Tuo in Xiling was supported by the Wutuo cavalry, but on the other hand, the Tang Dynasty could not even dispatch a single troop to attack Xiling.

And if you really want to enter Xiling, you can't just mobilize a troop of troops at will. After all, the Wutuo Khanate is known as one hundred thousand cavalry. Once they reach Xiling, Li Tuo asks the godfather of the Han Dynasty for help, and there will be a large number of Wutuo cavalry reinforcements immediately.

If the Tang Dynasty wanted to confront the Wutuo people, it would inevitably need a powerful cavalry to fight them.

And this is exactly the crux of Datang's current situation.

"The princess said that this matter is not a bad thing for me. Does she think that the Prime Minister will support the recovery of Xiling?" Qin Xiao asked.

The princess nodded and said: "His purpose of conquering Xiling is to go out and destroy Sword Valley. Although it is not for the people of Xiling, it will eventually be helpful to your plan to regain Xiling. If you get his support, regaining Xiling will be just around the corner."

"

"Which troops do you think he will mobilize to get out of seclusion?"

"The Shence Army is guarding Kyoto, so it is naturally impossible to transfer it to Xiling." The princess said slowly: "Except for the Shence Army, the two strongest troops in the empire are the Four Northern Towns and the Southern Army. But these two

No one dares to mobilize the troops. There is Murong Tiandu in the south and the Tusun people in the north. As long as they find an opportunity, they will never miss it."

Qin Xiao frowned and said: "These two troops cannot be mobilized, and the Tang Dynasty will not have other troops to fight against the Wutuo people."

"So we can only recruit and train a new army." The princess said: "Once the prime minister is truly determined to avenge his son at all costs, he will naturally fully support the recruitment and training of a new army to regain Xiling." She sighed and said: "

If this is the case, he will definitely amass money, increase taxes, and build a legion only to recover Xiling and attack Sword Valley. This may take several years." He glanced at Qin Xiao and said calmly: "

However, he wants to recruit and train a new army, but it is not your turn to take charge of it. In his eyes, you have already stood with me, and of course he does not want the military power to fall into your hands."

Qin Xiao smiled lightly and said: "This is of course. If he is really willing to recruit a new army to regain Xiling and promises me to cut off the heads of Li Tuo and Fan Ziqi with my own hands, I won't mind just being an ordinary person."

Soldier."

"You are very tolerant." The princess smiled disdainfully and said coldly: "Although the assassin is from Jiangu, you were at the scene when his son was killed, and you had a conflict with Xiahou Ning at that time. You

Do you think he will let you go easily? Qin Xiao, this prime minister never blinks when he kills people. If you were really an ordinary soldier without the protection of a saint, you would die without knowing how.

"

Qin Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "In this way, the Xiahou family and I have forged an intractable feud."

"I'm just curious now whether the Prime Minister will really wait patiently and plan to recruit a new army." The princess pondered for a moment before saying to Qin Xiao: "If he wants to train a new army, it won't be easy for you.

Practiced."

"That's okay." Qin Xiao said magnanimously: "He wants to train troops to fight in Xiling, but I can't ask for it, so as to save myself the trouble."

The princess smiled brightly, her charming face was even more beautiful, and she said softly: "It's good that you think so. But even if he wants to train soldiers, I will try my best to recommend you to the saint after I return to the capital."

"Are you leaving soon?" Qin Xiao was on a trip to Hangzhou and dared to compete with Xia Houning. Although he had a brave temperament, it was also because he had a big backer like the princess behind him.

Jiangnan is the territory of the princess, and with the support of the princess behind him, Qin Xiao is really confident.

He knew that with the princess behind his back, he would get twice the result with half the effort when doing things in Jiangnan.

But She Yue will return to Beijing soon. Without the princess by her side, if she really wants to start something in Jiangnan, it may not be so smooth. She suddenly loses a big supporter, but she still feels a little regretful.

The princess saw that Qin Xiao seemed a little disappointed, a trace of tenderness flashed in her eyes, and asked softly: "Don't you want me to leave?"

"Well, I don't want to." Qin Xiao replied naturally, but after he said it, he felt something was wrong.

It's just that his answer came from the bottom of his heart. Who would want the big supporter behind him to leave suddenly, so he was sincere. There was a warm color in the princess's eyes, and she said softly: "It's not up to me, even if I want to stay, saint.

.... The saint would not agree. But even if you really have to go to Jiangnan for business, you will always have to return to Beijing frequently, and you can still see me after returning to Beijing."

Qin Xiao nodded. At this time, someone had already come in and lit a lamp. It was getting dark. Qin Xiao stood up and said, "Princess, if there is nothing else to do, I will leave first."

The princess nodded slightly, and before Qin Xiao could turn around, she suddenly said: "Wait a moment!"

Qin Xiao cupped his hands and said, "What else do you have to say, princess?"

The princess thought for a long time and finally said: "You can stay in Changmingyuan tonight. You don't know much about many situations in Jiangnan. Before I return to Beijing, I will make some arrangements for Jiangnan. Some things need to be done."

I'll tell you." Before Qin Xiao could speak, he shouted loudly: "Here comes someone!"

A maid immediately walked in outside, and She Yue ordered: "Take Mr. Qin to Guanyue Pavilion to rest." Then she said to Qin Xiao: "If you need anything, just ask the maid to prepare it."

Qin Xiao didn't expect that the princess would let him stay overnight in Changmingyuan. He heard that the princess had already given her instructions, but he also thought that if the princess really wanted to return to Beijing, there were still many things to ask him in Jiangnan to stay here.

It is reasonable to summon him at any time.

Anyway, I have been living in the Governor's Mansion recently. Although the conditions in the Governor's Mansion are not bad, compared with the environment of Changmingyuan, it is naturally far inferior.

Following the maid through the courtyard, we came to an elegant courtyard. Birds were singing and flowers were fragrant. The courtyard was full of flowers. There was a large stone platform beside a rockery, and there were several stone piers around it. It was both a scenic spot and a good place to rest.

There is also a hanging flower tree in the corner, which is called Guanyue Pavilion. It is very elegant to watch the moon under the hanging flower tree.

The room seemed to have been tidied up a long time ago, and there was no shortage of anything. There was even freshly brewed tea in the teapot.

The lights were bright, and as soon as Qin Xiao sat down to rest, someone brought wine and food, which were very exquisite, delicious and delicious. After the meal, two maids came in carrying buckets. They were very familiar with the situation in the house and went directly to the house.

Behind the screen, hot water from the bucket was poured into the tub, and another maid brought clean clothes.

Qin Xiao thought that this was where the royal family lived, so it was natural for them to be well served.

Thinking about it, I really hadn't taken a shower for several days. When the maid came out, I went to close the door, but I was surprised to find that the door didn't have a latch, which I had never seen before.

He thought in his mind that maybe when the nobles lived here, there were heavy soldiers guarding the surroundings, so there was no need to bolt the door. However, it was really surprising to see the door without a bolt for the first time.

I also thought about when I was taking a bath. Even if the maid suddenly came in, I would not be the one who suffered. There was nothing to be afraid of. I just closed the door. After bathing, I put on clean and soft clothes. The brocade was silky and felt indescribably comfortable against my body.

.

Xiahou Ning was assassinated by Jiangu's disciples. This news will be reported to Kyoto soon. Shen Yaoshi's goal has been achieved. Qin Xiao doesn't know what the purpose of Shen Yaoshi is in doing this. But after all, this is between Jiangu and Xiahou.

There is no need to get involved in the grievances of the family. How they fight is their business. It is fine to stay out of it. As long as the little sister-in-law is safe and sound, it will be fine.

Although it was getting late, it was not time to rest yet. Qin Xiao took the time to practice the [Ancient Intention and Qi Jue], which lasted for two days, and more than an hour had passed. Then he thought about the True Sword of the Heart taught by Master Shen, how to use internal force to poke.

After poking a little bit, the sword energy could not be revealed from the fingertips.

He knew that the inner sword skill was profound and unpredictable, and if he wanted to learn it successfully, he would not be able to achieve it in a short period of time.

At this time, the whole Changming Garden was already quiet. Qin Xiao yawned and stretched. He went over to blow out the lights and went to bed. This wooden bed was wide and big. Royal relatives knew how to enjoy it and spread out their limbs.

, relax all over, knowing that Changmingyuan is heavily guarded, so I don’t have to worry about assassins sneaking in in the middle of the night, so I can have a good sleep with peace of mind.

In a daze, he didn't know how long he had slept, but suddenly he heard a "creak" sound. He became extremely alert and opened his eyes immediately, but did not act rashly. He deliberately pretended to be asleep, but out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the door was being opened.

Pushing it open gently, a figure walked in from outside the door.

After the figure entered the door, he turned around and closed the door. There is a moon tonight, and the moonlight shines through the window paper, so that the room will not be dark. In addition, Qin Xiao's eyesight is very good. Although he can't see the man's face clearly, his body outline

But he could vaguely see clearly, and vaguely noticed that the figure was plump and voluptuous. When he walked towards him lightly, his waist twisted, and he was clearly a woman.

Qin Xiao was a little surprised, thinking to himself how a woman could sneak into his room in the middle of the night. This was really unbelievable.

He half-squinted his eyes and saw the figure slowly walking to the bed, only three or four steps away from the big bed. The woman stopped, as if thinking about something. After a short moment, he saw her arms raised, and her hands started to move.

Take off the gauze on your body.

The thin gauze fell from the mature and attractive body, and then one piece of clothing fell off. Soon, the outline of an exquisite, convex, plump and mature body was completely revealed. In the dimness, the skin was dazzlingly white.

, her plump breasts are like mountain peaks, standing stubbornly and proudly.

Qin Xiao was horrified. Before he could think about it, the plump body had already come closer and went directly to the bed. Qin Xiao could no longer remain indifferent. He sat up suddenly, grabbed the woman's arm, and said in a deep voice: "Who is that person? Why did you come in?"

?”

"I'm Mei Niang...!" The woman's breath was like orchid, her voice was as low as a mosquito's ant, she seemed to be just speaking with her breath, her snake-like arms had already hooked Qin Xiao's neck, and her plump and hot body was pressed against her.
