After the army entered Thousand Fragrance City, the common people welcomed them.
"Prince!"
In front of the crowd, Prefect Liu Heng bowed to Li Luo with Liu Lingxi.
"Are you the prefect of Thousand Fragrance City?"
Li Luo asked.
"Prefect Liu Heng, I've seen the prince!"
Liu Heng nodded and replied.
Li Luo looked at Liu Heng, then looked around at the people around him with glowing eyes, and said,
"You've done very well!"
"I, the prince, hereby assure all of you that I will definitely drive the invading Nanyun enemy army back to their hometown!"
"I will take back the cities and territories we lost!"
"Drive away the Nanyun enemy army and recapture the cities..."
Hearing Li Luo's passionate voice.
All the common people present knelt down to Li Luo and cheered excitedly.
They believed that with their most proud Beiliang army here, with the prince here, they would surely drive away the enemy and recover their lost land.
They had no doubt about Li Luo's assurance.
Li Luo's mighty image when he previously fought and killed the two generals of the Black Cavalry Army alone was deeply engraved in the mind of every citizen of Thousand Fragrance City.
Liu Lingxi looked up at Li Luo on the warhorse, her eyes shining.
This prince of Beiliang was indeed as legendary.
He was very different from other noble sons.
She could see that Li Luo was very close to the common people.
Not like other nobles who always acted condescendingly towards the commoners.
At this moment, Li Luo won the hearts of the entire Thousand Fragrance City.
A prompt sounded in his mind from the system.
【Ding!】
【Gained five hundred thousand prestige!】
Li Luo was overjoyed. He didn't expect that his heartfelt words
would gain him the support of the entire five hundred thousand citizens of Thousand Fragrance City.
"Prince, you’ve travelled long distances and fought hard battles. Please come to my residence to rest first.”
Liu Heng suggested at this time.
Li Luo nodded.
The Black Cavalry Army of the Nanyun Kingdom had already occupied ten other counties outside Thousand Fragrance City.
Although he had just led the Bei Liang Iron Cavalry to defeat the vanguard of the Black Cavalry Army invading Thousand Fragrance City.
But that was just the vanguard of the Nanyun Kingdom's westward advance.
According to his subordinates' intelligence.
This Nanyun invasion was led by Nanyun Kingdom's Grand General Murong Liao, who personally led four hundred thousand Black Cavalry troops here.
Before long, this place would become a battlefield again.
And his father and Gao Shun's troops were also rushing here.
Li Luo immediately ordered the Bei Liang Iron Cavalry to rest in place and quickly clean up the battlefield outside the city.
And sent a Beiliang army to begin organizing the evacuation of civilians from Thousand Fragrance City...
Not long after Li Luo entered the city.
Li Beixiong's troops, and the troops led by Gao Shun, also arrived at Thousand Cloud City.
Not only did they capture the other cities occupied by King Qi, they also brought 300,000 more troops.
These 300,000 troops were all the forces of King Qi before his death.
Now, they had all surrendered to Beiliang.
In the prefect's residence, Beiliang King and Li Luo sat in the main seats.
Below were five of the Seven Heroes of Northern Liang sitting.
They were discussing how to deal with the Black Cavalry Army of the Nanyun Kingdom.
After all, the enemy was coming fiercely.
The Black Cavalry Army was no ordinary army.
Plus, the enemy general was the legendary God of War General Murong Liao.
In the hall, Prefect Liu Heng waited beside Li Beixiong.
While his daughter Liu Lingxi personally served tea to the generals present.
The gentle and graceful Liu Lingxi exuded a unique temperament.
Giving those present an impression of soft beauty, composure, cultivation and grace.
Especially since Liu Lingxi was born with natural beauty.
"Your Highness, my prince, have some tea!"
Liu Lingxi gently poured a cup of fragrant tea for Li Beixiong and Li Luo, then politely retreated to the side.
Liu Lingxi was worried that the maids in the mansion might accidentally bump into the Beiliang King.
So she took the initiative to serve them herself.
Li Luo took the tea handed over by Liu Lingxi, nodded slightly, drank it with a calm expression, and took another look at Liu Lingxi.
He had also heard a little about Liu Lingxi's reputation as a talented woman in Beiliang.
It was said that she could compose poems at the age of seven, paint at the age of nine, and was able to read the classics of the Hundred Schools of Thought fluently at the age of twelve or thirteen. At the age of seventeen she began to travel the country.
It was said that the number of talented scholars pursuing Liu Lingxi was countless.
But he didn't know why she still hadn't married.
When Li Luo first saw Liu Lingxi, he was also surprised by her scholarly temperament.
The rumors were not false.
Liu Lingxi was indeed a talented woman.
The temperament revealed in her every move and gesture was not something ordinary young ladies could compare with.
"Oh oh..."
Li Beixiong took the tea, looked at the knowledgeable and gentle Liu Lingxi, and was more and more satisfied the more he looked.
As the prince, how could he not have heard of Liu Lingxi's reputation as a talented woman?!
"Master Liu, is your daughter married?"
Li Beixiong's eyes flickered as he looked at Liu Heng next to him, asking with a lecherous face.
Seeing Li Beixiong's change of expression, Liu Heng and Liu Lingxi were a little caught off guard.
But the five generals seated below were long accustomed to their prince's ways.
The five immediately laughed strangely and turned their eyes to Liu Lingxi and Li Luo.
Li Luo rolled his eyes at his old dad. His face was also strange.
What's with his old dad?!
Could it be that spring had arrived and his dad was having spring fever again?!
Could his dad have taken a liking to Liu Lingxi?
Want to take another wife?
Li Luo thought back.
His dad should take another wife indeed.
After all, he had never seen his own mother since birth.
Although he was a transmigrator, his memories were only restored when he was one year old.
His dad said his mother died in childbirth.
Her grave was built on the hill behind the royal palace.
He still went to pay tribute every year.
Since his mother died, his dad had never taken a concubine.
Many times, Li Luo even suspected that the reason his father did not take concubines was because he might have problems down there and was afraid of people finding out...
Liu Heng came back to his senses and hurriedly cupped his fists and said,
"Uh... Your Highness, my daughter is not yet married..."
When it came to his daughter, Liu Heng couldn't help sighing.
He had introduced many outstanding young talents to his daughter, but she didn't like any of them.
While other families’ daughters were married and raising children at fifteen or sixteen.
His daughter was already twenty-three years old now, and it would be even harder for her to find a good family later.
Liu Heng was also very worried.
When Liu Lingxi saw Li Beixiong leering at her, she was a little panicked.
But her face did not show any abnormality.
An unpleasant thought came to her mind.
If it was really as she thought.
What should she do?!
If she did not compromise, she was afraid it would implicate her father...
"Not married yet?!"
"Ahahaha..."
"Great!"
"I like her!"
Hearing that Liu Lingxi was not married yet.
Li Beixiong was overjoyed, slapped his thigh, and was more and more satisfied with Liu Lingxi.
With Li Beixiong's words.
Li Luo's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at his dad!
His dad really got spring fever!!
And took a liking to Liu Lingxi!
Li Luo couldn't help taking another look at Liu Lingxi.
This girl was a few years older than him... Calling her auntie wouldn't be bad...
As long as his dad liked her it was fine...
