Chapter 207
That woman was right. She, the captain who had accompanied him through life and death, was a woman more suitable for Xue Li than a little girl like her who didn't know anything.

Xue Li keenly felt the sudden depression of the little girl in his arms, and couldn't help but lowered his head and looked at her: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Wei Yunxue shook her head and swallowed all the thoughts that came to her lips.

Xue Li did not allow her to dodge, and raised her chin slightly: "Huh?"

Wei Yunxue looked at the soft light in his eyes and suddenly shrugged her head in frustration: "Xue Li, do you think I am useless?"

Xue Li was startled for a moment, then he stroked her long hair gently, and his voice became softer: "Why do you suddenly say this?"

"I just suddenly felt useless." Wei Yunxue's head was still hunched, like an abandoned little animal, and his voice sounded a little gloomy: "After living for so many years, not only can I not help you with anything, but on the contrary I still want to trouble you with everything.”

What kind of person is Xue Li? He has been bright and thoughtful since he was a child. Without her having to say anything more, he thought about it and figured out why she was so abnormal today.

The hand stained with warm steam gently placed on her heart, Xue Li's voice was light: "I didn't marry my wife to help myself, and I don't need it."

After hearing his words, Wei Yunxue moved her head but still did not speak.

Xue Li put a little force on his wrist and hugged her into his arms again. He rested his chin on the crook of her neck and sighed softly: "Yue'er, you are already fine."

"But I feel like I'm useless and can't help you in any way, unlike that Miss Mu..." Her voice sounded even more frustrated, "There seems to be no reason for you to choose me..."

"I like you, is this reason enough?" Xue Li interrupted her with a gentle but unyielding tone.

Wei Yunxue was startled and slowly raised his head.

"No matter how good that person is, the only person I like is you. Is this reason enough?" He looked at her tenderly and patiently, gradually easing all the frustration and loss in her heart.

"A Li, can you wait for me to grow up?" Wei Yunxue was silent for a while and did not answer his question. Instead, she suddenly lowered her eyes and said softly.

There were five whole years between her and him. She knew that these five years were a time that she would never be able to cross, but if she worked harder, could she get closer to him?One day, she will become a woman who can stand beside him and accompany him to see the vast mountains and rivers.

"Okay." He didn't ask anything, just responded seriously.

After leaving the bathroom, Xue Li took her back to the inner room, brought a clean brocade handkerchief over, and wiped her long hair bit by bit.

"Go to sleep for a while." Looking at the tiredness in her eyes, he reached out and stroked her side face.

She must have not gone to rest since he left early in the morning.

Wei Yunxue moved inside and made room for an empty seat: "You should also rest for a while."

"Yes." Xue Li followed her words and lay down on his side.

The familiar faint cold fragrance lingered in his breath again, as if the lost boat had found its way, and the fallen leaves had found their roots. Wei Yunxue's wandering heart suddenly calmed down at this moment.

The incense burning in the room seemed to have a soothing component in it. She lay quietly for a while, feeling a little sleepy in her mind, but Xue Li suddenly put his hand on her eyes.

Her vision dimmed, and the slight coolness on her skin made her sober up. After blinking, she realized that Xue Li had covered her eyes.

Wei Yunxue was about to ask him what he was doing, but Xue Li suddenly said: "Wei Yunxue."

"Huh?" She responded subconsciously, then was stunned.

He had called her Wei Jiu, girl, Yue'er, and little girl before, but this was the first time he called her such a formal name.

The next second, his gentle kiss fell on her lips: "I love you."

Something seemed to suddenly explode slightly in her heart, and the overly hot love made her heart feel a little painful. Wei Yunxue put her arms around his shoulders and slowly closed her eyes: "Me too Love you."

The [-] cavalrymen who served as the advance troops of Mobei were completely wiped out in the Ulan Grassland. However, the [-] troops of the Mobei Turks stationed more than [-] miles outside the city were still eager to try and stared at Mingyue City.

The various tribes in Mobei are nomadic people. They have always lived in pursuit of water and grass. They have developed skills on horseback, especially good at riding and shooting. The Great Zhou Dynasty has a vast territory, most of which are located on vast plains. There are few mountains and hills. Due to the terrain, Restrictions, most of the armies of the Great Zhou Dynasty were infantry who were good at land warfare. This was indeed very restrictive against the Mobei cavalry who were good at riding and shooting.

But the entire city of Mingyue City is built layer by layer against the Yishan Mountain behind it. The magnificent and thick city wall winds for dozens of miles. If you want to capture this city, you will probably have to spend some effort.

Three days later, the Turkic Great Khan led a hundred thousand cavalry on a rapid march. The army pressed on the border and approached the city. The whole city was under martial law. The soldiers in each camp were equipped with armor and were ready to prepare.

War drums were beating in the city, and Wei Yunxue could hear the deafening sounds of fighting coming from outside the city across the courtyards. Xue Li gave her a death order, and she was not allowed to leave the courtyard at all. No matter how much she worried, she could only It can be pressed into my heart.

From dawn to late at night, the sound of the exchange of weapons outside the city never stopped. It was not until the evening of the second day that the shouts gradually became quieter. The frequent good news coming from the front calmed Wei Yunxue's heart. Not a lot.

I just heard the news from Lin Yi. Now more than half of the [-] Turkic army has been lost. It is in a rout and is retreating to the north. However, Xue Li is still on the front line, dealing with some follow-up finishing matters.

She hadn't closed her eyes for two days and one night, and her spirit had been in a state of high tension. Now her spirit suddenly relaxed, and Wei Yunxue was half-lying on the beauty's bed, feeling somewhat vaguely sleepy.

She was awakened by the noise of an argument that was deliberately suppressed from the study room outside the door.

Wei Yunxue stood up tiredly and looked at the sky. It was already very late. Xue Li hadn't come back yet?
Her heart suddenly jumped for no apparent reason, and she felt flustered for no reason. The arguments in the study became increasingly noisy and made her have a headache. She vaguely seemed to hear the words Guixie Valley.

Wei Yunxue squinted her eyes and listened to the conversation of several people for a while. Then her face darkened and she opened the door with a bang. When several people in the study saw her figure, they all stopped at the same time.

Her eyes swept over several people one by one, and her tone was cold: "What happened?"
