Yu Yalan understood the situation and its rationale, but she still couldn't help but feel anxious and worried.

The war to seize the throne in the capital has come to an end, and the civil unrest will gradually stabilize.

When the third prince successfully ascends the throne and becomes emperor, he will gather and control the power inside and outside the court. North Zhili will have half a million soldiers and horses. No one can predict what changes will happen by then.

Although Song Xi had already reached an agreement with the third prince, using the Song family's secret assistance to help him plan for the throne, when the third prince officially ascended the throne, he would have to rectify the case for Song Haocang and his son.

But at the time of the agreement, Song Xi had not yet invaded the Three Jin Dynasties, and the conflict between the two sides was not as tense as it is today. The third prince was cunning, greedy and aggressive by nature. What should he do if he breaks the agreement and goes back on his word?

Which emperor can tolerate a powerful vassal king perching on his side? Countless dragnets may have been set up in the capital!

There are also the Tatars who have been watching eagerly, waiting to reap the benefits, and they will definitely use all their strength to fight against the odds.

If these two parties suddenly unite, won't Song Xi have to face unknown dangers and attacks?

The expedition party always suffers more. After all, logistical supplies can easily become a drag and weakness. The third prince with the home field advantage does have a slight chance of winning. The combined power of the capital can indeed compete with the Song family.

To defeat the Tatar and imperial armies at the same time, the only way to ensure victory was to use artillery. However, both Song Xi and Yu Yalan were reluctant to abuse firearms. War with cold weapons alone required careful planning and deployment.

There is not much time left for them now, and the preparations the couple can make are very limited.

Lack of preparation meant more variables, and Yu Yalan, who was always used to making decisions before taking action, became even more flustered.

After Song Xi listened to his wife's analysis, Qingjun's face showed a bit of helplessness.

"Good Lan'er, you are so concerned that you are in trouble. When did I say that I would send out troops immediately? If I want to go to war, I will definitely be an oriole preying on the mantis. I can't let anyone take advantage of it! This paragraph

I will order people to train troops and prepare for war as soon as possible, but the specific arrangements will have to wait and see the situation in the capital. Let the Tatars and the third prince decide the outcome first, and then it will be time for our Song family's army to officially debut."

"I have a way to solve all your concerns. Your worries will not happen in the end. I will make the most comprehensive arrangements this time so that you and your child can wait for my return in peace and calm!"

In fact, it's not just Yu Yalan who is worried, Song Xi also has different worries in her heart.

Whenever he leads his army out to fight, the northwest will fall into a state of weakened defense. All parties will not miss this rare opportunity, and various temptations and provocations will emerge in endlessly.

Especially Qinxi, Longxi and Xifan are all bordering Shu. How could Huayang Hou, who has been vigorously deploying troops, remain indifferent?

If it hadn't been for the inability to deal with the power of the Shenwu cannon, I'm afraid they would have taken advantage of it and attacked northwest.

The Song family will place two cannons at each frontier checkpoint in order to make up for the chain problems caused by the deployment of troops. All major forces dare not act rashly, for fear that this mysterious weapon will blast over their heads one day.

However, if force is not enough, there are other methods. A weak female member of the Yu family cannot have any flaws. Princes from all over the country have racked their brains for this, and they will not hesitate to try one or two methods regardless of whether they are good or bad.

So far, no one's plan has been successful, but Song Xi is very worried about the situation of his wife and children.

If we really want to go to war, we must first ensure the safety of Yanzhou and not let the wife and children in the villa face the slightest threat.

Yu Yalan felt much relieved after hearing this, and couldn't help but chuckle and joke after hearing her husband's thoughts.

"You said that I care about you, but you are not like that? Those people's plots and tricks can't hurt me. If there is any accident, I will hide in the space! Yu'er will not leave my sight. There is a white wolf.

With the eight puppets guarding us, we, mother and son, will be safe and sound."

The couple who cared about each other convinced each other, and then looked at each other and put down their worries.

The two hugged each other tenderly and discussed the follow-up arrangements word by word.

"Dad, mother, let's have some snacks!"

Xiaotuanzi walked in with cheerful steps, a bright smile on his cute little round face.

Biyun behind him was also carrying a lot of hot tea cakes, and one could tell at a glance that they were freshly baked treats.

"Master Fu'an, the young master is a little hungry after finishing his studies. He asked the slave to prepare some tea and snacks. After that, he said that he wanted to enjoy it with the masters, so the slave sent the things over here."

Xiaotuanzi cheerfully added a few words: "Mom and baby should eat more, and daddy should also eat well to be healthy!"

Song Xi picked up her son with a smile on her face, and praised her with admiration: "Yu'er is so good! Don't forget to share the snacks with your father and mother. Our Yu'er will definitely be a good brother, and we must help our mother more in the future."

Take care of your brothers and sisters, okay?"

Xiaotuanzi nodded vigorously, his big black grape eyes sparkling.

"Okay! I want to take my younger brothers and sisters to learn how to read, eat and have snacks, and also take them to play with Baibai, Huhu and Lei Lei!"

The white wolf and the little white tiger who followed closely behind heard his words and couldn't help but whine twice in response.

Hai Dongqing, who was dozing by the stove with his neck curled up, also opened his eyes and leaned over while cooing.

The little white tiger was a birthday gift given to Song Yu when he was one year old. The white wolf has used spiritual power to enlighten it and now it is regarded as the guardian spirit beast of Xiaotuanzi. Although it does not have any magic power or supernatural powers, its actual combat ability is very powerful.

Yu Yalan specially asked Little White Tiger to accompany her son to grow up, so as to prevent the child from feeling lonely and boring due to lack of playmates.

The guardian spirit beast can also protect the son's safety at all times and prevent any accidents or injuries that may occur when there is no time to take care of it.

"Have the three of them been fed? Why are they all coming to the study together now?"

Upon seeing this, Biyun thought about it and replied with a smile: "I have already fed it, and it must not have been digested yet. The next time I feed it will be around the same time. The white wolf and the little white tiger are following the little ones."

It seems that Lei Lei has been here since the young master came in."

Yu Yalan turned to look at Haidongqing, stroked its head and said with a smile: "Are you quite good at hiding? I haven't noticed you for so long since I came in. I can't get so close to the heater next time. Be careful if the fire changes.

to your feathers!”

Haidong Qing Lei had a good attitude in admitting his mistake, and nodded humanely to show that he would not do it again. Then he rubbed his fur head against her hand and cooed like an eagle, as if to please the beautiful and gentle hostess.
