I Built a Territory in Ancient Times

Children are also back. He sat up and looked around, as if he was in a cave.

"How long have I been sleeping?" Ming Yu asked, his voice hoarse.

"It's been one day and one night." Xie Yixiu noticed his strangeness, brought water and gave him some to drink, and Ming Yu felt much better.

"Thank you!" Ming Yu whispered.

Xie Yixiu was stunned. He had never seen Ming Yu lose his temper before. The Ming Yu he saw was all flamboyant and comfortable, exuding a sense of vigor from the inside out, and he felt very comfortable when getting along with him. Like the feeling of spring breeze. Instead of being so lost and cautious now, it doesn't seem like him anymore.

"No need to say thank you!" Xie Yixiu softened his voice and said, "It is the minister's responsibility to protect the prince comprehensively."

At this moment, he suddenly had a clear understanding. In any case, he must protect this young man, not because of his identity, but because of the ripples that he had accidentally left in his heart.

Ming Yu nodded, his identity should not be lost, if he really fell into the enemy's hands, not only the officials and people of Liangzhou, but also the entire Dayan court would be embarrassed.

"Understood, this kind of thing will never happen again in the future, even if it is for the country and the people, you must keep this useful body and never fall into danger lightly." Ming Yu pursed her lips and whispered.

Seeing that Ming Yu had misunderstood what he meant, Xie Yixiu opened his mouth and finally swallowed the words in his heart. Just keep silently guarding him like this, there is no need to trouble him.

"Your Majesty should know that your identity is not like an ordinary person. Being a lord is related to the country's society, so..." Xie Yixiu glanced at Ming Yu and saw that he nodded silently, but he couldn't say anything more.

He changed the subject, "My lord couldn't move or speak before, but what's the reason?"

Obviously nodding with lingering fears, that feeling is really uncomfortable, like a ghost pressing the bed. If you can see and hear, you can't move, you can't speak, and you're trapped between square inches.

"I don't know what kind of drug it is. It's like this for a few hours after drinking it. Only after the effect of the drug wears off, can I move freely." Ming Yu recalled.

Xie Yixiu listened to his description. He frowned and thought for a while. Only then did he say: "In the territory of Suixi, there is a plant called Achnatherum splendens. Even if the cattle and sheep eat it, they will be paralyzed and unable to move. What the lord said should be the medicinal juice extracted from this plant." He After speaking, he looked at Ming Yu up and down again. "How is your lord feeling now? Is there any discomfort in your body?"

Ming Yu felt the condition of his body, except that he was a little hungry, there was no other change. He told Xie Yixiu truthfully, and Xie Yixiu repeated the inquiries several times to confirm that Ming Yu's body was indeed fine, and then he really felt relieved.

"I have roasted the fish, and it is simmering on the fire at the moment. The lord doesn't dislike it, and will you eat some?"

When he heard that there was something to eat, Ming Yu's eyes lit up, he nodded again and again, got up and sat by the fire, then looked at Xie Yixiu eagerly.

When Xie Yixiu saw that his bright eyes were like some kind of small animal, he could not help but slightly hooked his lips, so Ming Yu who was waiting to be fed was too rare.

He walked over, sat down side by side with Ming Yu, and grilled the fish on the wooden shelf with fire before handing it to Ming Yu.

Ming Yu took it, and a fragrant smell came directly over. At the moment, regardless of whether the temperature was suitable or not, he just tore off a piece and threw it into his mouth. He exhaled directly.

"My lord, be careful of the heat." Xie Yixiu reminded.

"It's better than being in Dayan when I'm outside. I don't need to be called the prince, just call me Ming Yu or Xiao Shishi." Ming Yu said vaguely, and then he added, "My father and brother are like this. call me."

There are many inconveniences when going out. If it is not good to reveal your identity because of the title, it is better to change your mouth earlier to avoid revealing flaws. Moreover, the two of them depended on each other in the tiger's den. If they still made some politeness, they would not be exhausted all day long. Like him, in front of the people he was close to, he never acted like a prince.

Ming Yu, Ming Yu, these two words went back and forth in Xie Yixiu's mouth several times, but Xie Yixiu still didn't call it out, he just said kindly, "Okay."

Ming Yu is very happy, how can he care so much, his stomach has long been screaming when he smells the aroma of the food, and now the first task is to fill his stomach first. I have to say that Xie Yixiu's skill in grilling fish is really nothing to say. The crispy skin and the juicy fish made him almost swallow his tongue.

I originally thought that cold ice cubes could not be eaten, but unexpectedly, this craft is really not covered. In Ming Yu's view, men who can cook are rare in today's society. As soon as he raised his head, he bumped into Xie Yixiu, who had no time to look back, and raised the fish in his hand, "Aren't you going to eat it?"

Xie Yixiu shook his head, "Chen... uh! I've already eaten it."

Ming Yu gave an "oh", retracted his hand, and said with admiration, "Xie Jiang... Yixiu, this skill is also very good. If any girl marries you, it will be an endless blessing."

Xie Yixiu smiled bitterly, the thought in his heart couldn't deceive himself, let's go to harm the girl. From the first time he saw him, he had never imagined that there would be any big intersection. A prince from the capital had nothing to do with him, right? After a few contacts later, I learned about the gentle and tolerant temperament of the gentle and graceful young man, as well as many unique opinions, which made people aware of his infinite talents. How can such a person not attract the attention of others?

As long as he protects his territory and protects this person, it is God's grace to him.

Xie Yixiu didn't speak, the air was quiet for a while, Ming Yu joked about it, only to realize that something was wrong. Dare General Xie to make jokes casually?

He laughed a few times to ease the embarrassment. "A general like you, these things are done by themselves, and they don't seem like people who can do these little things."

Xie Yixiu naturally saw it, "When I was young, there were changes in my family, so I would do this myself when I was very young."

Ming Yu was amazed, he really didn't know Xie Yixiu's past, he only knew that he became famous in the first battle and became a respected figure in the mouth of the people of Dayan.

Originally, I wanted to hear what he had to say. However, Xie Yixiu obviously didn't want to say more, so he changed the subject and asked, "Why did you choose to go deep into the hinterland and then go north?"

Ming Yu licked the juice from his fingers. He smiled and said, "Do you understand the circuitous route? The enemy has already blocked our retreat, do we still have to fight to our death? Going around in circles, although the distance is a little longer, at least there is a chance to escape, right? "

Xie Yixiu stared at him with no expression on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Even if there was no expression on his face, Ming Yu knew that he didn't believe what he said. He sighed, it was a headache to talk to smart people, so he could only say: "That's it! I said, can't I say it?"

He had already eaten one fish, and he reached out to take another fish that Xie Yixiu handed over before he could finish it, and then he said slowly: "Actually, I want to go there and have a look. , I was thinking of going to see it.”

What's so beautiful over there? Desolate. Xie Yixiu had doubts in his eyes, he knew that Ming Yu would never have such a thought for no reason. Being able to think of going to the north at this time is the idea that has always been in his mind.

Xie Yixiu obviously disapproved. As a prince, he was always thinking about taking risks. It is not right to have such thoughts.

Ming Yu explained with a smile: "This is the current situation, and this idea has been turned over. I never dared to go there in person before. I used to think that when the guard camp can really stand on its own, I will send it. A small group of people went to see it. If this is the case, it is estimated that it will not be realized within a year or two."

Hearing what he said, Xie Yixiu began to think, what is so special about the Xiqi Mountains between Suixi and Wuliang? Otherwise, why would Ming Yu think about it.

"Xiqishan? Why?" Xie Yixiu wondered.

"Because I want to see if there is a real avenue to the sky over there." Ming Yu tore off a piece of fish and threw it into his mouth, not finding any shocking words in his words.

"Tongtian Avenue?" Xie Yixiu looked at Ming Yu's calm face, did he mean the same as what he thought?

"Yeah, Tongtian Avenue may not be suitable, a corridor leading to the Western Regions..." Ming Yu thought about it sideways, "Well, yes, the corridor over there is a long and narrow plain area, and the Xiqi Mountains block the north. The windy sand desert of Xiqi River has a long source, nourishing the oasis. What is more valuable is that this long and narrow plain leads to Xihuang and other places in the Western Regions. As long as we win that place, our caravan does not need to go far. Road, increase the relative cost, not to be restricted by the Suixi country."

Xie Yixiu stood up abruptly, turned a few circles, and thought of more and farther in his mind. If Guangming Yu said, if their Dayan Kingdom can restrain this corridor, it is not a military important place. If you advance, you can attack the rear of Suixi, and if you retreat, you can defend the gate of Dayan. Perhaps in the future, the situation of Dayan will change because of this.

They didn't know that place, they only knew that the Xiqi Mountains were cut off between Suixi and Wuliang, and there were other mountain ranges, large and small. Because these mountains were different from the lush grasslands in the south of Suixi, the land was barren and No grazing. Therefore this
