Nan Yan murmured, "I see..."

Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly asked: "What does the empress know?"

"..."

Nan Yan didn't answer her right away, but made up for the gradual melancholy on her face. Soon, her complexion sank, and her eyes became gloomy as she watched the originally sunny weather outside.

Ran Xiaoyu became more and more uneasy, reaching out to support her: "Niang?"

"..."

Nan Yan did not speak any more, but after watching for a long time, he slowly turned around and walked into the house.

Of course Ran Xiaoyu reached out to support her.

But as soon as he took a step back, Nan Yan hesitated to stop, looked back at the clear sky, and muttered, "Xiaoyu."

"The servant is here."

"You said, in this weather, when will it snow again?"

"what?"

Ran Xiaoyu was stunned when she heard her inexplicable words.

Looking back at the weather outside, in fact, at this time, if it were in the capital, the flowers and trees had already sprouted, if it was in Jinling, I am afraid that the flowers have already bloomed in the city. There is only a bitter cold place like the northwest, which is still so cold, even though the wind is there. A touch of warmth, but if there is no stove in the house, people are still shivering with cold.

Such weather is the worst.

Not only is it unsuitable for people to live in, but Nan Yan's pregnancy is even worse for her.

Why would she want to snow again?

"Manny, why would you ask this question?"

"..."

Nan Yan was silent for a while, then turned to look at Ran Xiaoyu's puzzled expression. She smiled faintly, but the smile was full of bitterness and anxiety. She sighed and turned her head and walked inside.

|

The wind was also warmer than before, blowing into the rugged gorge of Hot Moon Bend, and when it went inside, it was still cold as a knife.

After all, this place is more remote than Shazhouwei.

There is even a lot of snow.

A group of men and horses passed through the narrow and long valley road. Just after they walked over, another group of men and horses passed by on the mountain road on the other side. These people kept cursing.

"Damn, it's really troublesome. We have to patrol this mountain at this time. What's the point of patrolling?"

"That is, the emperor's old man was scared in the last battle, dare to come?"

"It's all the military division. Since he came, we have nothing good here."

"We are sand bandits, and we have to patrol all day long. Do you treat us as officers and soldiers? If we are officers and soldiers, what do we still nest in this hot moon?"

"Hmph, I don't know where he came from, so I talked to the master, and the master trusted him so much."

"I heard that there seems to be an expert behind him?"

"is it?"

"It's OK, don't talk about it. After the previous tour is over, we can go back for a drink."

The group of people scolded while walking. One of the younger sand bandits was the most unconvinced, and said, "The road ahead is still used for patrols? Who doesn't know that the ice there has melted into water on the first warm day. I accidentally fell and never got up again. Could the court's soldiers and horses come from there?"

The elder sand bandit said, "Don't complain, let's go and see, let's go and see."

Everyone walked over impatiently.

After turning a bend, I immediately felt that the wind ahead was not only bitter, but also a knife-like chill in the wind, which made each of them shiver.

Everyone turned around and saw the ice on the ground.

In the sun, a transparent blue light shone.

The leader of the sand bandits, An Yan, came forward, took a look, frowned and said, "What's the matter, this month this year, why the ice here hasn't turned into water?"

The older sand bandit behind him said: "This spring comes late this year, and the ice naturally turns slowly."

"but--"

An Yan said anxiously: "The ice here always doesn't melt, so we have to send another team to guard it."

When everyone heard it, they became impatient.

One of the sand bandits came up and said, "Big Brother, this is not necessary."

An Yan said: "What do you know? This road is exposed. The emperor and their horses passed by this road before, in case they come again—"

"But, the emperor's men and horses were ambushed by us here last time."

"..."

"I have suffered a loss, do they dare to come?"

"This is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case."

Everyone is even more annoyed. Everyone knows that this valley road is different from other valley roads. Because there is water and ice here, it is the coldest. Every winter, Wulun and the others will send people here to guard it. Almost no one wants to come over.

At this moment, a one-eyed sand bandit took a look, and then sneered: "Brother An can rest assured that there is no need to send someone to guard here."

An Yan looked back at him: "Cyclops, why do you say that?"

The one-eyed dragon said: "If you don't believe me, look at it."

After speaking, he picked up a rock the size of a person's head from the ground and smashed it on the ice.

Hearing a bang, the stone smashed a big hole in the ice.

And then, there was a cracking sound on the ice surface, and when he looked intently, several cracks quickly appeared around the big crater, and the ice surface began to up and down in several places.

An Yan said: "This—"

The one-eyed dragon said, "Although it is still freezing here now, the ice at this time has long been different from the ice in the severe winter."

"How to say?"

"In the severe winter, the ice layer is horizontal when it freezes, but after the beginning of spring, the weather becomes warmer and the ice layer freezes vertically. Although the ice layer seems to be thick, it is actually vulnerable."

"..."

"No matter how heavy the stone just now, it can't be as heavy as a person."

"..."

"A stone is like this, can people still come over?"

Hearing what he said, An Yan felt relieved.

Nodded and said: "Yes, not bad."

So he turned his head with a smile, and said to the sand bandit behind him: "Well, today's patrol is over, everyone can go back and drink."

Everyone suddenly laughed and said: "Go, go back to drink!"

"Go and go!"

So the group turned around and left.

Under the sun, the ice surface cracked more and more open, and several large pieces of broken ice floated on the water surface, dangling.

An Yan took his own people back, and was about to go to the lobby to report the results of the patrol to the master, but he was stopped as soon as he reached the door.

The gatekeeper said, "The master is no one now."

An Yan said, "What's wrong? Is there anything important?"

The little boy said: "I heard that some news came back early in the morning."

"News? Where did the news come from?"

The little girl looked into the distance, and then whispered softly: "Of course, the news from Shazhouwei."

"Oh……"
