Chapter 272
Qi Yuanqing was well aware of the importance of this matter, and he could not pretend to be someone else, so he immediately agreed and planned to set off, but suddenly remembered something.

"Would you like to ask the little general about the matter of King Shu?"

When Qi Yuanqing talked about this matter, he always felt that it was not easy to talk to Yan Qing, but he couldn't help but say, "Since there are people who want to steal the Wen family's bottom line, none of the Wen family's family members will be able to escape. If we want to persuade the little general to take this Flag, I'm afraid this matter cannot be bypassed."

If you want to fight against the person who copied the Wen family, you must remind Yan Qing to be careful in advance.And to act on the pretext of seeking justice for the Wen family's royal family, it is inevitable to bring the tragedy of the Wen family's family to the table.

No matter what, they couldn't hide Meng Shulan's matter from her.

But if he wanted to tell her directly, even Bai Shu couldn't bear it.

Although Yan Qing is strong and aware of the overall situation, she is still a child after all. She has fought for several years and is used to seeing life and death, but it made her value the people around her more.

She only suffered the shock of the death of a close relative last year. This year, it was a happy event to return to the Northland to reunite with the two elders of the Qin family, but Yan Zhongqi was killed and the old lady Qin died one after another.

If you tell her that something happened to Meng Shulan again...

Bai Shu paused for a long time before saying: "Let's keep it a secret for now, it won't be too late to talk about it after you come back from Huxiyan's house."

"The end of the year is approaching, let the child live a passable year."

Hearing Bai Shu's words, Qi Yuanqing felt uncomfortable again.

People who guard the border are not without hardships, but the girl he watched grow up always lived a particularly hard life.

In the past, someone supported her for a whole day, and she could take a rest when she was tired.Now, she is supporting many people by herself, she can't rest, and she dare not rest.

Qi Yuanqing took a deep breath and sighed, "I hope that after this incident, she can live a more relaxed life."

Bai Shu looked at him without saying anything, but Qi Yuanqing understood everything.

For a moment, he couldn't say anything except a long sigh.

He himself did not believe these words.

Governance has never been an easy job.After this incident, the burden on her shoulders will only get heavier.

Qi Yuanqing set off overnight with a heavy heart, but at this time Yan Qing and his party were stagnant in the posthouse.

A month ago, after Yan Qing had sorted out the affairs of Jingcheng, he rushed to the Northland day and night, hoping to return to the Northland before the heavy snow fell, so as to arrange the arrangements.

It was late October at that time, and Jingcheng had already had a round of light snow, and it was freezing cold.

Qi Wei, the guard of Jingcheng, originally advised Yan Qing to stay in Jingcheng, and it would not be too late to go to Beidi for the handover of office in the spring of next year, but Yan Qing insisted on leaving.

"Wu Fang and others subdue the law. The Xueyuan rebels colluding with him will definitely take action. Before that, the city defenses must be reset and the defenses of the cities must be consolidated."

Yan Qing rejected Qi Wei's proposal in this way, "The two sides are fighting for time, and there is no room for delay. The old general Qin is old and has no successor to entrust him with a big responsibility. The trip to the north cannot be delayed. "

"Besides, it's the end of the new year, and I'm also thinking about going to spend a new year with the old man in my heart."

Speaking of this, Yan Qing's solemn expression relaxed, and he was a little more ashamed, "I'm ashamed to say that, as a junior, I never spent the Spring Festival with the second elder. Now the old lady has gone west, and this matter is a matter of course." It's a pity, so I thought that this time I happened to be on the way, at least to spend a New Year's Eve with the old general."

Having said that, Qi Wei didn't want to persuade him anymore, he just asked people to prepare fast horses, and found hunters who had been hunting in Jingcheng all year round in the Northland as guides, so that they could enter the Northland before the heavy snow closed the mountains.

It's just that although there are fast horses, the sky is not beautiful.

When Yan Qing and his party walked halfway along the road, heavy snow fell one after another, trapping them in the posthouse in front of them.

This is a post house in the suburbs. There are only a few people living here and there within dozens of miles, the facilities are simple, and the food is rough.

Yan Qing and the others were used to marching and fighting generals, so they didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but Miss Guo Jia was not picky about these things, not only made the soldiers and generals who accompanied her look at her differently, but also surprised the two maidservants who followed Guo Jia.

The only person who was not surprised by this was Yan Qing who knew the truth.

Where is the life of fleeing so easy?She may have experienced a more embarrassing situation than this.Now she is the one who stalks her to go to the Northland with her, so she naturally wants to show her determination to herself.

Although Yan Qing knew it in his heart, he still said politely, "If you stayed in Mocheng, you wouldn't have to suffer all this."

Guo Jia was wrapped in a quilt and huddled into a ball, only her head was exposed, but her mouth was hard, "I can't bear this bit of hardship, what big things can I do?"

"You understand that's not what I mean."

Yan Qing handed her a cup of hot tea, "In the past three months, although many people have been dealt with, they still haven't been cleaned up. Being forced into this situation, it's hard to guarantee that they won't take risks."

Holding the hot tea, Guo Jia didn't answer her, but asked another matter, "You should remember, right? There will be an unprecedented heavy snowfall in the Northland next year."

"remember."

Yan Qing answered briefly.

This year's snow has been heavy, but Old General Qin is still there. With him dispatching troops to assist the Beidi government to resettle the people, even though there was heavy snow, it did not cause much casualties.

But next year, in the fifth year of Qianyuan, after the death of General Qin, the temporary commander-in-chief was unable to convince the army because there were no successors in the army. Limin.

Without the help of the army, whether it is maintaining order or logistical support, it has become a problem.

Under the double blow of snowstorm and plague, the scattered Northland became a dead city surrounded by heavy snow.

Even the Xueyuan people, who were accustomed to the frost and snow and wanted to take over the northern border, would rather take painstaking efforts to attack Jingcheng than set foot in the dead city of northern land.

When she finally freed herself from the battle in Jingcheng to deal with the affairs of the Northland, the Northland had almost become an empty city with only dead bodies and plagues.

This empty city made her suffer a lot.

The plague spread from the unsealed Northland. Although she controlled the spread of the plague in time, more than half of the people inside and outside the barracks still suffered.

But when she finally found a cure for the plague and brought the situation under control, the Xueyuan people took advantage of the lack of troops in the northern border and captured the northern land and Jingcheng in one fell swoop.

She led the army back to Mocheng, and when she asked why there was no backup, she received several imperial edicts from Wen Zhemao to call her back to Beijing.

Although today is different from the past, the past is still engraved in my heart.

She had to hurry back to the Northland at this time because Old General Qin's time was running out, and she wanted to do the last bit of filial piety for the old man.

At the same time, it is also for more time to deal with the snowstorm and plague next year.
