Chu Yin and Zuo Qian looked at each other, and they straightened their clothes and went out.

The decree officer had already entered the gate, and there were four people who came, all of them were ashamed, their teeth chattered from the cold, and they couldn't even speak.

Chu Yin hurriedly ordered someone to take him off the horse and send it directly to the commander's tent, and asked the military medical officer to come over quickly.

All four of them had frostbite to varying degrees. The military medical officer hurriedly asked someone to bring in snow in a basin. He rubbed the hands, legs and feet of the four people with the snow to warm them up. Then they changed into clean cotton clothes and drank hot ginger porridge.

The four of them sneezed hard several times before they felt alive. They cried out for pain while watching the military doctor apply chilblain ointment to themselves.

When the military doctor was busy, Chu Yin hid in the inner tent and waited until the outside was cleaned up before coming out.

Seeing her, the messenger hurriedly stood up and bowed to salute, "Master Hou, I'm sorry for being rude."

"It's okay," Chu Yin waved his hand, "Angel, please sit down."

Just now it was pain from the frostbite, but now that the body is getting warmer, the four decree officials only feel itchy and unbearable, and they always want to scratch it.

Zuo Qian already had experience, and hurriedly said: "Don't scratch it, it's easy to ooze pus if it's broken, it's even more difficult.

"After frostbite, you must pay special attention to keeping warm. If you don't pay attention in the coming year, it is easy to relapse."

Several people hurriedly thanked them.

Chu Yin knew that there must be no urgent matter in the imperial decree. If there was an urgent matter, it would have been sent through the emergency channel, or Rong An could get the first-hand information, and it was impossible to delay coming to the army for so long.

From the capital to the outskirts, the road is difficult, and experienced cavalry may take a shorter time. For ordinary people, two months may be considered a short time.

Grand Master Xu hasn't entered Beijing yet!

Holding the hot water, the decree officer said: "At this time, let's keep it simple, and Lord Hou doesn't need to set up any incense table. Let's proclaim the decree like this."

Both Chu Yin and Zuo Qian stood up, and were about to kneel down after finishing their clothes.

The messenger hurriedly waved his hand, "No need, Your Majesty said, the champion marquis has worked hard abroad, and there are some things that don't need to be formalized."

After finishing speaking, he took out the imperial decree wrapped in several layers of oilcloth from the burden, and offered it with both hands.

Chu Yin also took it with both hands, unfolded it, and it was about how to deal with Chen Qi.

After seeing it, Chu Yin showed it to Zuo Qian.

Zuo Qian laughed and said: "If it wasn't for this imperial decree, the lower officials would not even remember who Chen Qi is."

The decree official said: "Your Majesty also gave the officials and others an oral order, asking them to map out the topography of the eighteen cities in the border area and take them back to Beijing.

"Because some elders in the DPRK said that the construction of the city required too much silver, which put too much pressure on the treasury."

Chu Yin knew that Emperor Wenchang sent people to pass the decree just as a formality, in order to block those ministers in the court who were full and had nothing to do but only attacked others.

So he said: "The angels have worked hard all the way, let's settle down first.

"It's snowing, so it's not advisable to go out. After the snow stops, the angels can go around the cities."

What can you tell just by looking at the topographic map?If you don't be there, you don't know what the city looks like.

Several decree officials agreed at once.

As soon as they entered the northern region, they complained to the sky. Not only was the road difficult to walk, but the weather was also very bad.
A distance that can be covered in one day usually takes at least twice as long.

It was fine when they set off from the post station early this morning, but after half an hour after leaving the post station, it suddenly started to snow, and it was getting bigger and bigger. If there were no road signs, they would have lost their way and died of freezing and starving in the wilderness.
