"Yan Qingying, you've stumped me."
When I heard his words, I somehow seemed to return to that dark, quiet stone chamber like an ancient tomb, and I seemed to hear my mother's calm and haggard voice slowly saying those words.
She said she was stumped by her father.
She said that she had passed her life no matter how difficult it was, and she had passed her life even though she was stumped by such a person, which made her life difficult and she could not solve it.
Thinking of this, my throat choked up.
After being silent for a long time, I whispered in a hoarse voice: "Why should your Majesty suffer?"
He said lightly: "I thought I had tasted all the five flavors of life, but I only realized that it was like this until today."
“…”
"But I'm willing to accept it."
I smiled bitterly and shook my head gently.
"I don't know whether Your Majesty is stumped by me or by yourself, but you still have to solve this problem."
He breathed a sigh of relief: "Of course."
"Then I--"
"But I'm here to tell you that we should leave."
When I heard this, I suddenly felt nervous: "Are you leaving?"
"good."
"Is it the side of Sekikyo? Are you ready-"
"No need to ask more questions, you'll know if you go."
"……oh."
I nodded, and he took a step back. I stood up and gently wiped the corners of my eyes with my fingers. The tears that had just shed had not dried up yet. At this moment, I felt the other hand reaching out and gently wipe my wet cheeks.
"Luckily, this time, you didn't cry for me."
My fingers froze and gently put them down.
He felt that I didn't want to speak, so he didn't say anything more. At this moment, someone was looking for him outside. He walked out and explained to the servant a few words, and then someone came in to serve me wearing thick clothes and was really going to go out of the camp and leave.
I thought that he should have transported away the things that need to be transported away two nights, so this time we were counting as lightweight and simple travel. I could hear that there were only a few teams of cavalry left around to protect us, and Qimuge was finally "released" out, so he took me on the horse.
When he sat behind me on the back of the horse, he also said to me: "I have been so suffocated these days."
I smiled and said, "I feel wronged."
"Ms. Yan has been doing well these two days?"
"I know it's okay, you see."
"Then I'll be relieved."
I smiled, and he carefully helped me sit upright, looked left and right, and then said, "Miss Yan, where are we going?"
"I just asked the emperor, but he won't tell me."
"..." He was silent for a while, and said "Oh" softly, and did not ask again. After handing over the camp to the soldiers stationed here, the entire large army began to move forward.
These days, I can say that I have walked back and forth on the grassland for countless trips. Although my daughter was praised by the Iron Cavalry King as a person born on the horse, I am not. I had just rested for two or three days, and when the horse ran, it was immediately like I was about to be distracted.
Although it was uncomfortable, the large army began to advance and could not stop it by just speaking, so I could only grit my teeth and endure it.
Fortunately, Qi Muge's riding skills are pretty good and he also protects me very much.
It was fine two days ago, and the weather was not bad. On the third day, it started to snow. If such snow was almost negligible on the grassland, but because of the fact that we were speeding on the horse's back, the small snow foam hit the face, which continued to bring about fine pain.
Pei Yuanhao sent me a thick cloth towel, which surrounded my entire face. Because I didn’t have to look ahead, my eyes were almost covered, and only one nose was left to breathe outside.
This time we walked was not as anxious as we were when we talked to him before, but I guess the journey and distance were almost coming.
Qi Muge sat behind me and suddenly whispered in a low voice: "We are about to arrive in Shengjing."
I let out a soft "um".
He was silent for a while, and then said, "This time, I really want to attack Victory Beijing, right?"
In fact, at this time, I realized a little bit that he was still a person from Shengjing after all.
Thinking of this, I also fell silent.
Qimuge said: "It seems to be true."
"Qi Muge, what did you think?"
“…”
"Do you still have relatives in Shengjing?"
"No more, I'm only alone."
"Oh." I thought about it and said, "If this time, it wasn't the emperor and the Iron Cavalry King who had agreed to the matter between them and let the Iron Cavalry King fight Dongzhou, I'm afraid he would take you to attack Shengjing."
"I know, everyone in Wuwei knows it."
"Then, what do you think?"
I heard him laugh behind him and said, "Ms. Yan wants to ask us, will we feel unhappy when we attack Shengjing?"
After all, I am still a person on the grassland. I speak more straighter than me. I am just trampling around the bush, but it seems a bit redundant.
He said: "If you want to say it's unhappy, of course it's still unhappy."
“…”
"If it were really good, the king would have done it long ago."
"That--"
"But now that's the case, we have nothing to say."
“…”
"We will not help if the emperor wants to fight. If he loses, I will naturally protect Miss Yan's conscience."
I wanted to look back at him, but I couldn't move on my horse, so I had to give up. After a while of silence, I smiled and said, "No matter what, I will entrust you with my safety."
"Don't worry, Miss Yan."
In the following time, neither of us spoke again. I wonder if it was because we had to hurry up in the last journey, the team kept moving forward and did not stop. Finally, in the evening of that day, we heard a team in front of us back to pick us up and informed that the camp had been temporarily built.
Our speed has finally slowed down a little.
I asked Qimuge: "How far is this place from Shengjing?"
Qi Muge was silent for a moment and said, "It's less than ten miles."
"So close?"
I was a little surprised.
Pei Yuanhao stationed the temporary camp less than ten miles from Shengjing City. Obviously, he did not intend to station here for a long time. Judging from the previous negotiations with the Iron-Faced King, they planned to fight and decide quickly.
I don't know when I plan to start.
After walking for a while, I finally arrived at the camp. I listened to the voices here, and it seemed that there were not many people stationed.
But before, there were several groups of people leaving the camp, so why did it look very small?
However, just as we got off the horse's back and my legs were so paralyzed that I was almost unable to stand firm, I heard a sound of footsteps coming from the front, which was very heavy. At first I heard it, I knew that a tall man was coming over.
He walked up to us, stopped for only a moment, and said, "I pay homage to the Emperor."
This voice is a little familiar, but also a little unfamiliar. I hesitated and frowned. At this time, Pei Yuanhao stepped forward, as if he had helped the man up, and then said, "Since I am in the army, my dear minister doesn't have to perform this great gift."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The man turned to me again and said to me: "Miss Yan, it's been a long time since I was there."
“…”
I hesitated for a while before tentatively saying, "General Tu Shuhan?"
He said "yes".
I suddenly opened my eyes wide in surprise and said to him: "You, how could you-"
Halfway through the words, I stopped by myself.
Of course he might be here.
Since Pei Yuanhao had always asked him to be responsible for the Flanger cannon in Longnan and Huo Liancheng, obviously, he should have a good understanding of the Flanger cannon. The attack on the victory of Jing was an extremely important move for Pei Yuanhao's entire game. It was impossible that he had to send a general over like fighting with those tribes before.
Wen Fengxi is in Jiangnan and Pei Yuanfeng is in Xichuan. The only thing he can do in the north is Tu Shuhan.
It seems that it was the time when people in Longnan lost their fortunes and delayed their period before, when Tu Shuhan came here. No wonder Pei Yuanhao did not blame them for their loss of fortunes and delayed their periods.
But for those two days, I was stuck in the tent and couldn't meet him.
After understanding this, the shocked expression on my face slightly eased, and I whispered: "I didn't expect to see the general here."
He looked at me for a while and said, "I didn't expect to see Miss Yan again-"
Only then did I realize my appearance.
I don’t look in the mirror after I get blind, so the whitening of my hair actually has little impact on me. But every time I see an old friend, I will hear the other person’s first sigh, which inevitably makes me feel a little ugly and even more embarrassing.
I just smiled: "This is, I encountered some changes."
"ah……"
It is rare that even people like Tu Shuhan feel a little emotional.
At this time, Pei Yuanhao on the other side probably didn't want someone to stare at me like this, and said, "I'll talk about these things later."
Tu Shuhan hurriedly turned around and said, "Prince forgives me."
Pei Yuanhao was not angry with him, and just asked, "How was the arrangement?"
Tu Shuhan said: "The people at several places have been arranged. Just wait for the emperor to arrive here, and the minister will be ready to issue military orders."
“…”
"I don't know the emperor--"
"I will leave this battle to you, and naturally the entire army should obey your command."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After saying that, I heard that he had issued some order. After a while, several horses came out of the camp. After seeing Pei Yuanhao, they got on the horse again. Tu Shuhan said, "According to the instructions given to you before, you must arrive at the place you should go on time and convey the orders of this general. We are anxious, don't delay the time. Those who violate the orders will be killed!"
"yes!"
He heard the answers of those few people, and then rode his horse out.
My heart suddenly jumped.
Chapter completed!
