Hidden Sky Light

It has been four or five days since the **** of grain and forage left Beijing, Qu Bianying tightened the reins, letting the horse slow down, and called out, "Fan Yu."

In the carriage, Fan Yu lifted the curtain on the car window and looked at her with gentle eyes, knowing that she was going to say goodbye here.

After a moment, the carriage stopped.

The **** team was still on their way. Qu Bianying led the horse and Fan Yu walked on the side. This was a fork in the road. In order to **** safely, Ziyiwei divided into three roads here.

The two parked on one side of the fork, surrounded by escorted grain trucks, one after another, with Ziyiwei escorting them on both sides.

In the sound of the carriages and horses, Qu Bianying said first, "Fan Yu, I will deliver it here, all the way to Linbei, you should be more careful."

Fan Yu nodded, "Okay."

Qu Bianying put her hands behind her back, her ears were a little red, as if she didn't know what to say, but she wanted to say something. After a while, she squeezed out a sentence, "Actually, with Shi Huaiyuan here, this journey is also safe..."

Qu Bianying looked at him.

Fan Yu knew that she was...

Fan Yu said softly, "Bian Ying, you have to be more careful."

Hearing this sentence, Qu Bianying laughed again, "Fan Yu, you are caring about me, aren't you?"

Fan Yu's face also turned red.

Fan Yu was always like this, and Qu Bianying had expected that he would bow his head soon. But this time, he bowed his head, but instead of bowing his head, he answered in a very soft voice, "Yes."

Qu Bianying was slightly startled.

Fan Yu did not look up.

The sound of carriages running over grain continued to be heard around, and Ziyiwei stepped forward, "General, everything is ready, you can leave at any time!"

"I know." Qu Bianying responded.

Only then did Fan Yu look up.

Qu Bianying just turned to look at him, "Fan Yu, after the new year, my grandfather will come to Beijing..."

Fan Yu: "..."

Qu Bianying hesitated, "You can meet my grandfather."

Fan Yu: "..."

Qu Bianying said hesitantly, "He, he wants to see you."

Fan Yu's face was completely red, "Well."

Hearing that he agreed, Qu Bianying smiled like a breeze, "I still have nine older brothers!"

Fan Yu: "..."

Qu Bianying jokingly said, "I won't let them come if you're kidding me!"

Fan Yu sighed.

With the same curve and side Ying in one place, each moment does not know what to say in the next moment.

But the next moment, Qu Bianying jumped on a horse with a smile, dressed in military uniform, and tied a ponytail. He was more heroic than all the purple-clothed Wei Erlang by his side.

"Let's go, Fan Yu." Qu Bianying tightened the reins, ready to go.

Fan Yu nodded, looked at her seriously for the first time, and said softly, "Pay attention to safety, Bian Ying, I, I will miss your safety..."

Qu Bianying was stunned.

The translation is, I will miss you...

Fan Yu was also stunned.

The corners of Qu Bianying's mouth rose to an unknown place, "Will you marry me, Fan Yu? If you marry me, I will come back safely."

Fan Yu looked up at her.

She laughed again, "Just kidding you!"

Fan Yu was slightly startled.

She rode on a tall brown horse, dressed in purple armor, and in the cold wind of the twelfth lunar month, she seemed to be independent, and she had an indescribable appearance of proud snow.

And he stood tall and straight, and also looked up at her, with a clear-cut and unparalleled elegance.

This in itself is like a beautiful picture.

No need for any extra embellishments either...

In the beautiful picture, she smiled and turned around. The wind picked up a strand of hair in his ear, and the sound of horse hooves also fell into his heart.

"General!" Shi Huaiyuan happened to greet him from the back of the team.

Qu Bianying passed him by, "Shi Huaiyuan, **** the food and grass, and take care of Fan Yu!"

Shi Huaiyuan: "..."

Fan Yu lowered his head and chuckled.

When he looked up again, the sound of horses' hooves and the figure of the purple-clad armor disappeared into the ice and snow in front of him...

But all of a sudden, in the frost splashed by the horse's hooves, there was already a concern.

***

Linbei Camp.

From the appearance of Wu Sutai, the situation around Linbeiguan became tense.

In the past few days, Yu Ya has also come from the central camp to discuss with Shen Ci in the back camp on the opposite side. Wu Sutai first let Arik command the army to test, and then the army pressed the border to start a large-scale attack on Linbei and offend Yan Han. border.

Between Yan Han and Barr, there is bound to be a battle, it's just a matter of sooner or later.

The Linbei Garrison Office had received the emperor's hand letter yesterday.

Linbei's food, grass and all military supplies have been prepared and will be transported to Linbei by Fan Yu's supervision. Baal invaded, and the emperor asked the Linbei garrison to fight back and expel Baal.

In the main tent, Shen Ci, together with Yu Ya, Zhou Shijun, Guo Zixiao and the main generals of Lin Bei, took a close look at the combat terrain map near Lin Bei.

Shen Ying is also among them, "In the name of the caravan, I have traveled in Echo Valley, Yin Lianshan and other places, and I have seen the deployment of the Baal people in these places, because they are mixed in the Baal caravan, so Baal may not necessarily be After careful study, these places don’t seem to be checkpoints, but in fact, Barr has stationed a lot of troops, because the terrain is complex and difficult to detect, I guess, this should be their food and grass reserve…”

Others do not know the identity of Shen Ying, only that he was sent by the DPRK to join the army, and he is very familiar with the situation in the area of ​​Baer.

Yu Ya hugged his arms, "It is very possible that when Tan Jin was still there, Wu Sutai would try to avoid confrontation with Tan Jin, and also used the practice of sacrificing a large number of elites in the army, and burned the Linbei garrison in the back. It was the granary that drove Tan Jin and Lin Bei's garrison to a dead end. That time, it was General Liu's commander-in-chief raid that solved the urgent need. Wu Sutai doesn't fight unprepared battles. . This time he is replaced by a general, he is not familiar with the general's tactics, and he is bound to be more cautious."

Shen Ci also said, "Hoarding food and grass is to prepare for a protracted battle. General Yu, I remember you said that Wu Sutai's style of play is fast, steady, and accurate, so all he wants to fight is a sure battle? "

Yu Ya nodded, "Yes, although Wu Sutai is Barr's big cloud, he is very cautious and never rash. He is more secure than the generals next to him."

Shen Ci sighed, "That's interesting. He is so cautious with his soldiers, he doesn't fight unprepared battles, his tactics are firm, and he doesn't rashly advance, but this time he even prepared food and grass in advance. What's his recourse?"

When Shen Ci said this, Yu Ya, Guo Zixiao, Zhou Shijun and others also reacted.

Yeah, why didn't think of this.

Shen Ci looked at Shen Ying, and Shen Ying just looked up at him.

Shen Ci suddenly thought, Chen Xian!

Chen Xian must have A Ling's handle and leverage in his hands, so Chen Xian or Wu Sutai is sure that this time Chen Xian's return to Beijing will turn the capital upside down, and Yan Han will have civil strife, so he has no time to care. More likely, the other party even calculated that if something happened in Beijing, he would give up Lin Bei and directly lead his troops back to Beijing to rescue him thousands of miles away.

Therefore, in Wu Sutai's view, when this battle is at a critical moment, there will be rumors of civil unrest in Yanhanjing. The main generals and elites of the garrison in Linbei will come to the rescue, while at most there will be only some old and weak soldiers left in the border pass in Linbei. Wusu Tai Cai thought that this battle would definitely be won, and he hoarded food in order to drive in as soon as possible while the garrison returned to Beijing for rescue.

Wu Sutai's ambition is not in Linbei at all, but in a wider area south of Linbei. So Wusu was too patient to let Arik test him, because what he wanted to test was not only his tactics, but also his temperament, judgment, and a series of comprehensive reactions.

Wu Sutai is a tough one.

Shen Ci took a deep breath.

Suddenly I remembered Licheng Border Pass. If it wasn't for the proper handling of Harmiya's affairs earlier, Yan Han is really in trouble at home and abroad. Oops.

Chen Ling asked him to guard Lin Bei, that is, she could deal with it in Beijing.

He believed her.

...

In the camp, Zhao Lunchi looked at Han Guan, "General Han, are you alright?"

Han Guan Qing hmm.

Zhao Lunchi sighed, "Is it all right?"

Han Guan was lying on his stomach at first, but now he turned to look at him, "How about you get slashed and try?"

Zhao Lun was speechless.

Han Guan looked at him, "What did I say you were frowning for?"

Zhao Lunchi said in a low voice, "I don't know if I'm thinking too much. General Shen asked me to be a guard, and now he asked me to take care of an old man in the garrison. I came to be the garrison, not the closet. Guardian."

"Heh~" Han Guan laughed, "Don't look down on the guards, I'll tell you, Lao Guo and I were the general's guards earlier! Think about you as a guard, the general's combat strategy, trade-offs, you don't have to You know better than others? You've learned a lot, and many people don't even have the chance to do so. Do you think that all those who want the guard are for the general?"

Zhao Lunchi didn't think about it this way before, and now he said again, "But now he has asked me to take care of a veteran in the garrison."

Han Guan held his hand and smiled, "Based on what I know about the general, if he lets you go, this veteran must have something special. He wants to protect him, and he thinks you can learn something."

"Really?" Zhao Lunchi never thought about this.

Han Guan got down again, "Believe it or not."

Zhao Lunchi was speechless, "No, I was thinking, why did Shen Ci help me? Why help me?"

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Lunchi received a heavy punch on the head, "It hurts!"

Zhao Lunchi covered his head, and Han Guan hummed after blasting his hammer, "That's what you called the general's name! No rules!"

Zhao Lun was slightly annoyed.

Han Guan looked at him again, "Didn't you ask the general why you are helping you?"

Zhao Lun nodded.

Han Guan said seriously, "Poverty alleviation."

Zhao Lunchi was completely speechless.

Han Guan put his hand on his shoulder, "Xiao Zhao, let me tell you, what the general asks you to do, you can do it, even the guards have to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy, don't be hypocritical, ah, be obedient!"

Zhao Lunchi pushed his paws away.

***

In the blink of an eye, the end of the year is approaching, and the number of carriages traveling around is decreasing.

In the twelfth lunar month, the wind and snow are heavy. If there is a delay on the road, there is no guarantee that you will be able to return to Beijing in time for the New Year.

Ning Zi's carriage was stuck in a pit covered by heavy snow. The guards and servants tried several times, but they couldn't get them out. There were too few staff, and the servant and guard were in a hurry.

On the other hand, Ning Zi's tone was indifferent and leisurely, "It's okay, wait for the people who come and go, there will always be someone passing by, and when someone comes, ask for help."

The people around gave a sigh of relief, "Miss, wait in the carriage, it's cold outside."

Ning Zi should be fine.

There is charcoal in the carriage, and it won't be too cold. Ning Zi urged, "If you wait too long and you have spare charcoal, you can cook it on the fire."

"Yes." The guards and servants responded.

Ning Zi returned to the carriage, quietly flipping through the book.

The charcoal in the carriage made a beeping sound, and Ning Zi was wearing a thick cloak, and it was not cold, so she could read a book cleanly.

Later, there were also a few passing pedestrians, but they were not able to move much.

Ning Zi's carriage, the wood is heavy and thick, and stable, but it is too heavy.

After waiting for a while, the carriage did not come out. It was freezing cold outside the carriage, and the guards and servants were on fire. In fact, the capital is not far away, if it weren't for the heavy snow, she could have walked through this section.

"Miss, can you go forward and look for someone?" the servant asked.

"Wait a little longer, it's really impossible to go." Ning Zi responded, and the servant should.

The sound of flipping books in the carriage came, and it was already noon, and the servant was worried when he suddenly heard a series of hooves splashing.

This voice, there can be at least two or three people.

The servants and guards were slightly relieved, and immediately someone waved in the official road and stopped the person on the opposite side.

The visitor really stopped, and Ning Zi heard voices from outside the carriage, followed by the voices of many people jumping off their horses, and she had found someone to help.

Ning Zi also heard the sound of footsteps coming forward. Ning Zi just reached out and raised the curtain, just in time to see the servants bowing their hands outside, "Miss, it's the Marquis of Jianping."

Ning Zi's eyes fell on Sheng Wenyu, and she couldn't help but smile, "So coincidental?"

Sheng Wenyu didn't say much, "Come down."

Ning Zi is very kind.

The carriage fell into the pit, and Sheng Wenyu helped Ning Zi get off the carriage.

Ning Zi got off the carriage and saw that there were more than thirty or forty people in the garrison with Sheng Wenyu along the way. It was not a problem to carry the carriage out.

Ning Zi watched from the side.

"One, two, three! One, two, three! Carry it again!" Someone ordered, and soon the carriage was carried out.

This is because of the heavy snow, if not, it should be faster.

"Wait, check the carriage." Sheng Wenyu ordered.

Immediately, the accompanying garrison began to carefully inspect the carriage, from the body to the bottom of the carriage, and from the front to the parking space.

Sheng Wenyu said to Ning Zi, "The pit is a bit deep, I don't know if there is any problem with the carriage, and it has been stuck in the snow for a while, so check it out."

Ning Zi nodded.

Later, the garrison who really inspected the carriage kept reaching out and knocking on the beam at the bottom of the carriage. After confirming again and again, he turned back, "Master Hou, the beam at the bottom of Miss Ning's carriage is almost broken, but because the wood is strong, it is not easy to see, and it has corroded in the snow for a long time. I'm afraid it will break if it doesn't go far, it's not safe, and the carriage should not be able to be used."

Ning Zi was surprised.

Sheng Wenyu stepped forward to take a look in person, Ning Zi was in the same place, and when Sheng Wenyu turned back, he asked gently, "Can you ride a horse?"

Ning Zi calmly would not.

Sheng Wenyu hesitated.

Ning Zi said warmly, "Don't you want to go back to Beijing? You go back to Beijing first, and you can call a carriage for me. I have someone here, and there is enough carbon and warmth, so wait a little longer."

Sheng Wenyu looked at her and said to the lieutenant, "Go."

The lieutenant should be.

Sheng Wenyu asked the lieutenant to bring someone back to Beijing. He stayed, "I'll stay and wait with you. Beijing is not far away. It's not safe to leave you alone here."

"Will I not delay you?" Ning Zi asked.

Sheng Wenyu shook his head, "No, there is still time."

Ning Zi smiled. Some people are still the same as before. They do a lot and talk very little...

Although the carriage can't go on the road, it can still keep out the cold with the charcoal heating.

Ning Zi was reading in the carriage while Sheng Wenyu looked out the window in a trance.

After a long time, the people who went have not turned back.

After noon, it seems to have cooled down again, and the charcoal heating in the carriage is much colder than before.

The servants and guards were rubbing their hands outside the carriage. Ning Zi was serious about her reading. She hadn't felt it before, but when she reacted, she couldn't help shivering.

Sheng Wenyu took off his cloak, "Put it on."

Ning Zi looked at him, he had already got up and got off the carriage, "I'll go take a look."

He must have seen her cold and the temperature inside the cloak was afraid of her embarrassment, so he got off the carriage.

Ning Zi smiled, Sheng Wenyu's temperament was steady and thoughtful, unlike Shen Ci's troublemaker. If the person in the carriage trapped here today was Chen Ling, Sheng Wenyu would still be like this, but Shen Ci would directly carry the person away, no, it is also possible to carry him away.

Chen Ling always remembered that Shen Ci carried her on her back for three days in the heavy snow. For Chen Ling, troublemakers are different.

Ning Zi smiled again.

...

By the time they returned to Beijing, it was already night, but the carriage came, and the two of them arrived in Beijing safely.

The imperial guards on duty at the city gate made a routine inspection, lifted the curtain, saw Sheng Wenyu and Ning Zi, and hurriedly bowed, "Master Hou, Miss Ning!"

"Well." Sheng Wenyu said softly.

After entering the city, Sheng Wenyu and Ningzi said, "I want to enter the palace to see Your Majesty, will you go to the post house first?"

"I'll go too." Ning Zi responded.

The carriage was heading towards the palace from the city gate. Sheng Wenyu sneezed twice. He should have given the cloak to Ning Zi while he was on the way. He got out of the carriage and caught a cold.

Right now, I sneezed twice in succession, as if my nose was stuffy.

"Sheng Wenyu, are you okay?" Ning Zi asked.

Sheng Wenyu shook his head, "It's okay, Xiaofenghan, but don't infect you, I'll go outside the carriage."

Sheng Wenyu finished speaking, got up and raised the curtain, and went outside the carriage to ride with the driver.

Ning Zi looked at his back and was really curious, how could Chen Ling like Shen Ci, and why should he like Sheng Wenyu.

Ning Zi sighed.

...

After a while, he went to the palace.

On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, the DPRK has already rested. The emperor was with the prince in Chaoyang Palace, and Sheng Wenyu and Ning Zi went directly to Chaoyang Palace.

When he arrived at Chaoyang Hall, Chen Ling was writing with Ah Nian in Chaoyang Hall.

"Why did you two come together?" Chen Ling never thought of it.

A Nian was also surprised, "Jianping Hou! Aunt Ning!"

Childlike, she stopped writing when she saw Ning Zi, she put down her pen and ran to Ning Zi's side.

A Nian was familiar with Ning Zi, and called Aunt Ning; but Sheng Wenyu was the Marquis of Jianping.

Who can refuse such a lovely child as A Nian?

A Nian rushed forward, Ning Zi picked him up and said to Chen Ling, "On the way, the carriage fell into a pit, and Sheng Wenyu just came back to Beijing to pass by, and came together."

"That's a coincidence." Chen Ling responded.

Sheng Wenyu cupped his hands, "Your Majesty, Your Highness."

"Okay, Anian, don't let Aunt Ning hug you. You are so heavy, you can't hold Aunt Ning." Chen Ling knew how heavy Anian was now.

Ning Zi was not used to holding children, so she couldn't bear the little rocks like A Nian.

Ning Zi smiled, "Your Highness, I really can't hold it anymore."

"Persistence." A Nian encouraged.

Chen Ling and Sheng Wenyu couldn't help laughing.

"A Nian." Chen Ling called again.

Only then did Anian say, "Aunt Ning, Aunt Ning, then let me down~"

Ning Zi did as she did.

"You're a rare visitor." Chen Ling and Ning Zi spoke together, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that I would have someone pick you up?"

Ning Zi smiled and said, "Grandfather asked me to come and see His Majesty. He was afraid that His Majesty would make a move, so he didn't dare to bother..."

In another place, Anian looked at Sheng Wenyu eagerly, and Sheng Wenyu also looked at him.

After a long time, A Nian suddenly said, "Uncle Sheng."

Sheng Wenyu hurriedly cupped his hands, "Your Highness, the last commander will not dare."

There is a difference between the ruler and the minister, and the other is the prince.

A Ling frowned.

Chen Ling and Ning Zi came back to their senses, Ning Zi sighed in her heart, Sheng Wenyu honestly never took advantage, but if Shen Ci would definitely stick to it, no, he is the son of a troublemaker.

Sheng Wenyu entered the palace, and he should have something to say to Chen Ling, Ning Zi stepped forward, "I accompany His Highness to write?"

She just saw it.

"Okay!" A Nian reached out and held Ning Zi.

Sheng Wenyu paced the garden with Chen Ling, "Is the journey going smoothly?"

"Smooth." Sheng Wenyu responded, "Everything is done, Your Majesty is worried."

Chen Ling nodded, "I always rest assured when you do things."

Sheng Wenyu looked at her.

"On this trip to Fengzhou, have you met the old lady and Sheng Yan? Are they okay?" Chen Ling asked.

"I've seen it. Your Majesty Lao is concerned. It's all good, and I'm also thinking of Your Majesty."

Chen Ling nodded and called out, "Qi Shan."

Qi Shan took the brocade box and stepped forward, Sheng Wenyu took it, and Chen Ling smiled, "Look at what I found?"

Sheng Wenyu opened it, "Guardians?"

Chen Ling said warmly, "Does it look like the one Fang Siping and Shen Ci lost when they were in the East Palace?"

Sheng Wenyu also smiled, "Like."

Xu Shi remembered what happened earlier, and Sheng Wenyu's eyes were gentle. When he was in the East Palace earlier, he saw with Fang Siping and Shen Ci that he had a pair of precious handguards.

Fang Siping and Shen Ci came to watch, arguing that one of them would play with each other.

After swimming in the lake, I fell into the lake, but I didn't catch it.

Fang Siping and Shen Ci coaxed him for a long time.

It was all in the past, and I still remember it now.

"Your Highness still remember?" Sheng Wenyu smiled.

"Remember." Chen Ling responded.

She remembered everything about the East Palace.

"Happy New Year, meet again." Chen Ling greeted in advance, tomorrow is the New Year's Day, Sheng Wenyu is inconvenient to be in the palace, the day after tomorrow is the first day of the new year.

Sheng Wenyu said solemnly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, everything is ready, the minister will always be by the emperor's side."

Looking at Sheng Wenyu's back, Chen Ling thought that when she first came to the East Palace, she would still cry because of trivial matters, and Sheng Wenyu would quietly accompany her; but at that time Shen Ci would ask her, who bullied you, I would beat her he goes! He looked at Shen Ci, Shen Ci laughed again, go, go over the wall to eat candied haws, can't you go to Sheng Wenyu?

Sheng Wenyu looked at him angrily.

In the end, the three of them climbed over the wall, and one of them took a bunch of candied haws to eat.

When they came back, they saw Chen Xian, and Sheng Wenyu and Shen Ci stopped.

Shen Ci said to her, "Your Highness, wait here, don't go anywhere."

She should be fine.

Not long after, Shen Ci and Sheng Wenyu ran over and walked around!

Take her and run.

Later, I heard that Chen Xian was beaten, and his nose was blue and his face was swollen.

Chen Ling smiled.

***

At the end of the year, the palace is decorated with lanterns and colorful, and the taste of the year is strong.

Anian is very happy, because Aunt Ning is also celebrating Chinese New Year in the palace this year, and the New Year's Eve dinner turned out to be hot pot!

A Nian is novel.

"It's booming, isn't it, little A Nian?" Ning Zi smiled.

A Nian nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Aunt Ning is right!"

Chen Ling knew that he was the best at coaxing people.

And coaxing different people, there are different ways to coax...

Chen Ling watched it for a day today.

No wonder even Chen Xiuyuan could be dragged into the water by him, holding him for a whole day.

On one side, A Nianzheng was talking to Ning Zi that he also wanted to drink fruit wine.

Chen Ling was thinking about A Nian's skills a moment ago and didn't know who to learn it from, but the next moment he thought of Shen Ci, that's not surprising...

Just thinking of Shen Ci all of a sudden, I also think of the end of the year. I don't know what happened to Shen Ci?

***

Lin Bei's New Year's Eve, the weather is cold and the ground is freezing, so cold that people are freezing, especially when they are lying in ambush in the ice and snow.

"Is it alright?" Shen Ci looked at his father with a worried look in his eyes.

"Don't worry, the older you are, the stronger you will be." Shen Fengshi had been injured earlier and was afraid of the cold. Although Lin Bei was inexplicably ill and healed, he was also shivering from the cold.

Shen Ci was speechless, "Okay, just play two quarters of an hour! When the two quarters of an hour arrive, go to the rear."
