Chapter 35 Extra Story [-]: Sand City

Half a month later, Murong Bo received a memorial form from Murong Li.Murong Li suspects that Donghu has colluded with other forces, and the ultimate goal may be to rescue the imprisoned deposed prince Murong Shen, and use Murong Shen's name to split the Dayan regime.Murong Bo was strengthening the defense of Donghu City, suddenly, overnight, Donghu made a massive attack, and at dawn, they even crossed the Great Wall of Yan.Both the court and the Chinese military were surprised, and Murong Bo issued another edict to Murong Li.

Murong Li's fiefdom is the border town west of Dayan, originally it had nothing to do with Donghu, but when he received the imperial decree, he just sighed.

At night, when I returned to the palace, Xiangxiang hadn't fallen asleep yet, and was embroidering the children's clothes stitch by stitch.Murong Li sat down at the table, and Xiang Xiang quickly got up to pour water for him.He said, "Sit down, it's not like I don't have long hands!"

Xiangxiang laughed and said, "I like to take care of my husband, my children, my siblings, and my parents. It has nothing to do with whether the prince has long hands or not."

Murong Li took the water she handed, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.Xiangxiang said: "Why did the prince come back so early today?"

Murong Li thought for a while, but still said: "The grandsons of Donghu are making trouble again, I want to go there."

Xiangxiang was slightly startled, and said: "Now the land of Liaodong... is not under the rule of the prince."

Murong Li said, "En."

Xiangxiang was silent, and finally said: "My lord... These words should not have been said by my concubine, but now my lord is already a side-by-side king, and His Majesty the King of Yan has nothing to seal and no reward to the lord."

Murong Li said: "I know. But when the family and the country are in trouble, everyone is responsible, let alone my surname is Murong."

Xiangxiang nodded and said, "I'm preparing the luggage for the prince."

Murong Li held her snow-white wrist, and suddenly reached out to caress her belly.Xiangxiang didn't move, for a long time, he said: "I wanted to watch the birth of this little boy, but after this trip, I don't know when I will come back."

Xiangxiang's soft palm covered the back of his hand, making his palm stick tighter to his abdomen: "I will take good care of him, the prince doesn't have to worry."

Murong Li took her into his arms, gently pressed his lips on her forehead, and said: "This king will definitely come back as soon as possible, and wait for my triumphant return."

Xiangxiang nodded, and Qingsi left a wisp of hair fragrance on the end of his nose.Murong Li was a vigorous and decisive person, since he decided to obey the imperial edict, he set off that night.Han Xu accompanied the army, Zhou Zhuo and Yan Qing were in charge of defending Pingdu Pass.

Mayi City at night is brightly lit, and the three armies leave the city at night, and the people all over the city line the road to see each other off.Xiangxiang followed Murong Li all the way to the outside of the city gate.Murong Li patted her hand lightly, and said: "I'm going back, I'll be back as soon as I finish fighting."

Xiangxiang nodded, her clear eyes were shining like stars in the golden red light of the torch.She said softly: "My lord, take care." Murong Li suddenly understood why the ancients chanted so many dramas and poems about parting.

The cold moon was like a hook, and the wind was loud. He rode his horse and turned his head for the first time in his life.

Xiangxiang stood there and smiled at him. Although it was night, she was dressed very neatly.Princess Xun's dress made her beautiful and extravagant, her long hair was tied up by a crown of beads, and there was a light and plump lip balm on her moist lips.Murong Li felt strange that in this life, he could notice a woman's makeup.

Yurou stood beside the old lady of the Han family, silently watching the man suddenly turn his head back immediately.That woman from a tofu shop really took over everything from this man just like that.She lowered her gaze, a little sour.

When the army left the city, even the light of the torches could not be seen, Xiangxiang returned to the palace in a carriage.The children are still asleep, but she has no sleepiness.She sat at the table and continued to embroider the little gown. The candles were ignited bit by bit, and the sky turned white. She suddenly realized that she had been sitting all night.

Xiao Xuanxuan's laughter and Cui Shi's voice came from outside.Xiangxiang opened the door, caught the daughter who rushed in without any surprise, and followed her son quietly.Xiangxiang patted the heads of the two children, because Murong Li often went out, they didn't feel any difference, they still played as usual.Xiangxiang washed her face and made breakfast for the two children.

Yurou got up in the morning, and Han Xu was getting dressed.Murong Li took Guo Yang and Zhou Zhuo to Liaodong and ordered Han Xu and Yan Qing to guard Pingdu Pass.He said: "After the prince leaves, the princess is alone in the mansion. You can go and visit when you have time."

Yurou also thinks this is very necessary, after all Xiangxiang is the princess, and her husband works under Murong Li.If Xiangxiang still has prejudice against her because of what happened last time, it will be bad for her and Han Xu.She is a princess, so she understands etiquette, so she prepared a gift and went to the palace to meet Xiangxiang.

Xiangxiang doesn't have any prejudices against her, anyway, she is married to Han Xu now, even though she is a concubine, but Han Xu... probably won't have many women around her.When the two women met, there was a lot of greetings.Although Yurou was a little bitter, she didn't dare to offend her, and she always talked with her carefully. As long as she put down her arrogance, her speech and conversation were still very decent.Xiangxiang has cultivated Xiaojiabiyu's gentle temperament in the palace all these years, and has cultivated a bit of calmness. Now that Yurou has lowered her figure, the two of them can still talk.

Seeing that she really didn't care, Yurou came here often.Once the relationship is established, Murong Liruo will come back, and if the bad feeling towards him disappears, maybe he can become Han Xu's regular wife.Now she doesn't think about him anymore, she has lost hope and is calm instead.

Xiangxiang's belly gradually grew, and Murong Li still sent a special messenger to send letters from home back and forth.Xiangxiang dried a lot of dried fish for him every time, and the reply gradually exceeded [-] words. After all, there are two children, and the more things to write, the more words will naturally be added.Murong Li's replies were concise and neat, but they often included other things. Most of them were jade from Liaodong, and sometimes he painted landscapes;

The battle reports from Liaodong will not be sent back here. Xiangxiang doesn't know how the battle is going.All she knew was that her younger brother and husband were on the battlefield where "how many people fought back in ancient times".She didn't believe in gods and Buddhas before, but later she even ordered someone to build a small Buddhist hall, enshrining Guanyin Bodhisattva, praying to Buddha every day, only hoping that her relatives will be safe.

After Murong Li arrived in Liaodong, the Donghu soldiers were instantly defeated and retreated in the direction of Yilu Mountain, all the way to the Great Wall.Seeing that it was just a small fight, Murong Li naturally led his troops to chase and kill them. However, these Donghu soldiers were not afraid of death, and they still attacked repeatedly, and each time they were small groups of soldiers.Murong Li was a little impatient with being dragged on, seeing that more than four months had passed, Pingduguan, Xiangxiang's pregnancy should be nearly seven months.These Donghu people look like they can't kill them all.He ordered one person's head to be exchanged for five taels of silver, and the soldiers under his command formed their own formations and hunted down the invading barbarian everywhere.Guo Yang wanted to make meritorious deeds, but Murong Li was eager to return home.In the entire barracks, he was the one who killed the most enemies.Murong Li also felt strange - this kid is very hardworking.

On this day, Donghu came to harass again.Murong Li cursed, and led a strong force to chase beyond the Great Wall, the enemy soldiers fled in all directions, Guo Yang and several lieutenants chased at the forefront, Zhou Zhuo followed Murong Li around.

Murong Li chased after him for a while, but still felt something was wrong, he said: "Stop chasing, go back to camp!"

Zhou Zhuo and others all stopped, but Guo Yang still rushed forward.Murong yelled: "Guo Yang!" Guo Yang turned a deaf ear as if his eyes were red.Murong Li had no choice but to move forward on his horse, the further he went, the more wrong it became.Murong Li said angrily: "Guo Yang is back!" Before he finished speaking, there was an earth-shattering shout of killing all around, and countless soldiers shouted loudly in Xijing accent: "Catch Murong Li alive, reward ten thousand gold, and seal ten thousand households!"

Murong Li's heart sank, he's from Xijing.How could people from Xijing appear here?

Zhou Zhuo was also taken aback: "My lord, we have been tricked!"

Murong Li still used him to say that for more than four months, the Donghu people advanced and retreated like this, just to make him take the enemy lightly and advance rashly.And Dong Hu had long colluded with Xi Jing, and the bait for these four months was to catch him first.Behind, is the entire Great Yan Kingdom.

Murong Li's face sank like water, the general of Xijing this time is really a formidable opponent.He said: "Don't panic, get off your horse and sneak in the grass. If there is such a big commotion, our people will come over soon."

Zhou Zhuo and the others followed the order, the grassland outside was like a sea, if people were submerged in it, it would be difficult to distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, and there was nowhere to aim the bow and arrow.Murong Li and others hid in the deep grass, dodged and killed the enemy soldiers all the way, and approached the Great Wall of Yan all the way.

The other party quickly discovered their intentions and ordered them to shoot arrows in the direction in which they were fleeing.Murong Li used the corpses of the enemy soldiers as a shield to block the rain of arrows. Seeing that he was about to escape, there was a sudden smell of tung oil, and Murong Li's face changed.The semi-dry grassland in autumn is a natural fire ground.For a moment, the surrounding area was filled with smoke and fire.Murong Li quickly tore apart the burning clothes, and used soil to extinguish the flames on Zhou Zhuo's body next to him. The two of them had blisters on their hands, but they didn't dare to stop a step, and rushed forward in the thick smoke.There was another wave of arrows in front, Zhou Zhuo was hit by an arrow, Murong Li held a long halberd, and while cutting the arrow feathers, he said angrily: "Don't fucking pretend to be a grandson for me!"

Zhou Zhuo wiped the plaster off his mouth and said, "Don't worry, my lord, this subordinate is also the uncle of the Xijing dog!"

Murong Li nodded, gritted his teeth and waved the hot iron halberd, and joined his men. Seeing that they were about to escape from the encirclement, the Xijing people began to shout loudly: "Grab Murong Li!"

Murong Li snorted coldly, plunged his halberd into the ground, leaped into the air with his strength, and drew a beautiful arc in the air. In an instant, he was behind the archer, and then the halberd swept across, causing the archer to fall down.Zhou Zhuo and the others got a chance to breathe, and they all rushed over.Under the banner of the Xijing Army, a man who looked like a general shook his head and sighed: "Zonghu returns to the mountain, I missed a good opportunity. Four months of hard work have come to nothing."

The deputy general next to him said: "General, there are still people in the encirclement of our army!"

The man said: "Little fish and shrimp, what's the use of it."

Murong Li glanced at the soldiers rushing over, and said sharply, "Where's Guo Yang?"

Several generals were burned black, and some had been shot by arrows, but the injuries were not serious.No one spoke, and Guo Yang's whereabouts were self-explanatory.Murong Li glanced at the people who were still rushing to kill in the formation, and after a long time, said: "Today, even if the person trapped in the formation is my own son, I will not let you turn around and rescue them." After a pause, he said : "But it's Lao Tzu's brother-in-law who got caught in it!"

Among the crowd who had escaped from the dead, there was a sudden burst of laughter, Murong Li also smiled, the direction of the long halberd was the Jing army, which was overwhelming and overwhelming, still imposing like a rainbow: "Get that boy out for me!"

Zhou Zhuo led more than a hundred remnants of his troops and rushed towards the dark Jing army. The Jing army fell silent, and Murong Li rode his horse and fled eastward.Suddenly, a roar erupted from the Jing army: "Shoot Murong Li! Shoot Murong Li!" The ordering flag repeated the same action crazily. Everyone didn't understand why he didn't return to his own barracks after he had already escaped from the encirclement. , but turn back and kill?
After Murong Li attracted the attention of all the Jing troops, he rode his horse and galloped towards the southeast.Jing Jun completely gave up on Zhou Zhuo and the others, and chased after him frantically, Zhou Zhuo shouted desperately to no avail, his lieutenant grabbed him, and after saving Guo Yang, he dragged the two of them away and shouted: "General! Go back to the camp and lead the troops, and then rescue the prince is the most important thing!"

Guo Yang was still in a daze. At the moment when he was deeply trapped in the enemy's line, surrounded by swords, spears and halberds, he thought he was going to die.At that moment, I didn't even panic anymore, I just felt sorry, parents, sister, nephew and niece, and... and that person, tried everything, but couldn't make a difference.Even when the knife and gun were scratched on his body, he couldn't feel any pain. He just felt that I was going to die.Just died.But it was still that person who turned around and rescued him. After being shocked, he came back to his senses, and he had been dragged and submerged into the grass.Turning back again, I saw the man galloping away on horseback, hit by three arrows, and disappeared from sight as fast as thunder.

Guo Yang just felt his mind go blank, oh my god, what happened?Guo Yang was dragged by his companions all the way, fled back to the camp, and then he suddenly felt frightened—he might have killed Murong Li!This thought was like a heavy hammer, suddenly making him pale.

Zhou Zhuo led his soldiers back to the place where the Jing army ambush, but there was nothing but the fallen corpses.Zhou Zhuo didn't feel the pain at all, he led his men to chase along the horseshoe like crazy, and only caught a few Xijing remnants at the foot of Yilu Mountain.

Zhou Zhuo asked with red eyes, "Where is King Xun? Where is King Xun?"

Seeing his blood-red eyes, the remnant soldier was terrified and said tremblingly, "I, our general went after him..."

Zhou Zhuo chopped off his head with a knife, and immediately led the people up to Mount Yilu.After a short search, he saw Murong Li's war horse lying on the ground, with more than ten arrows in his body, he was already dead.Guo Yang trembled and closed his eyes.

On that day, the courier still sent a letter, it was Murong Li's personal letter, saying that the war was repeatedly delayed and he had to return late.Xiangxiang still dried the small fish in the sun and asked people to take them there. If you come back late, you can come back late. There are always wars in this world.

But the military report Han Xu received was completely different.The generals in the entire battalion were in a state of high tension, and the defense of Pingdu Pass was repeatedly strengthened.Then Murong Bo sent an imperial decree with Murong Li's handwritten letter inside - if something happens to me, Han Xu can be the next coach and Yan Qing will stay at Pingdu Pass.

Han Xu promoted his lieutenant Chen Zhao to take over his post, and went to Liaodong to take over the post of coach.Before leaving, he went to Prince Xun's mansion, and through the crystal curtain, Xiangxiang asked, "Is there anything wrong with General Han?"

The child is a few months old, and she is already a little tired.Han Xu said: "My lord is not here, my subordinates will see what is missing from the wangfei's side, so that someone can send it."

Xiangxiang said: "Everything in the mansion is managed by Mr. Tao, and there are no omissions. General Lao Han is worried."

Han Xu said: "As a minister and subordinate, it is right to care about the mistress. The princess is pregnant now, please rest well. The subordinate will resign."

Xiangxiang said, "General Han, please go ahead."

Han Xu saluted, took a few steps back, and walked out of the room slowly.Xiangxiang stood up, feeling uneasy for some reason.

Han Xu rushed to Liaodong, and Zheng Guangcheng and Lu Jingxi, who joined the army, handed him several letters.Han Xu unfolded slowly, all of them were Murong Li's personal letters, which were sent to the Xun Wang Mansion in Mayi City on time by a special courier, and each letter was reported safe.

He had already written the family letter for the past few months, and even asked the baby's gender during the month when Xiangxiang gave birth.Han Xu read every letter, and finally sealed Murong Li's lacquer with his own hands, and said: "As usual. Order up and down the mansion of Prince Xun, not to let the princess, the little princess, and the little prince hear the slightest bit of wind, otherwise they will not be executed." Forgive me!" That night, Han Xu was ready to lead his troops to search Mount Yilu, but before he could lead his men to search for Mount Yilu, Xijing made a massive invasion through Donghu, and the army quickly broke through the Great Wall of Yan, and the entire Liaodong fell into war.

When Xiangxiang was more than nine months pregnant, for some reason, Yurou stopped coming.Xijing and Dayan have officially started a war. Although they borrowed from Donghu, there is no difference. Although she was taken captive, she is still Princess Yurou of Xijing.Mr. Han put her under house arrest in the Han Mansion, and did not allow her to step out of the mansion again.

Xiangxiang looks like she is about to give birth, and usually there are a lot of girls and women around her, so she doesn't have the energy to care about other things.On this day, it rained for a few days in the border town that had been seldom rained. It was rare that Xiangxiang came out to bask in the sun after the weather cleared up.Xiao Xuanxuan was riding a horse. Next to the stable, an elderly woman was brushing the horse.Xiangxiang was sitting on the reclining chair next to her and was a little tired after a long time, so she asked her mother-in-law to help her up and walk around.The woman brushing the horse suddenly turned her head to look at her. Xiangxiang noticed her gaze and looked at her. The woman looked familiar, but Xiangxiang couldn't remember who it was anyway.

Seeing her staring at herself, she smiled: "You know me?"

The woman suddenly grinned, showing a strange smile, and then asked: "Murong Li was ambushed by Xijing and died, don't you know?" Xiangxiang was startled, Zhao Wu yelled angrily: "What nonsense? Where did the crazy woman come from, don't drag it out!"

The woman struggled and her long hair was disheveled. She laughed sharply: "You don't know, you don't know! Hahahaha! You made me like this, so what about yourself? Didn't you become a widow!"

Before she finished her words, Zhao Wu had already kicked over, she was panting until she vomited blood, and she still couldn't stop laughing wildly.Xiangxiang stood where she was, and first thought about who this person was. After thinking about it for a long time, she suddenly remembered——Yinzhi, the maid in Empress Dowager Shu's palace.I heard that Empress Dowager Shu has sold her privately, why did she come here?She quickly gave up thinking about this matter, she said so bitterly that Murong Li was dead, what happened?Murong Li's letters were sent back on time every month, how could he die?But... If this matter is not true, why are Zhao Wu and others so nervous all of a sudden?

Zhao Wu ordered the woman to be dragged out and beaten to death. Xiangxiang was watching him.Zhao Wu looked a little uncomfortable, looked away, and said: "Princess Wangfei, do you believe the words of that crazy woman?"

Xiangxiang said, "Tell me."

Zhao Wu said: "This subordinate... this subordinate does not know what the princess wants to know." When he said this, his eyes dodged.

Xiangxiang said, "Where's General Han Xu?"

Zhao Wu said: "General Han... the prince transferred him to the front line, and he is not in the city now."

Xiangxiang raised her hand to support the nursing mother Cui Shi, and Cui Shi hurriedly said: "Princess! The prince is a lucky man, and he will surely turn bad luck into good fortune. You are now in a heavy body, you must take care of yourself."

Xiangxiang stood up straight with difficulty, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "I will take care."

No one dared to speak, so Xiao Xuanxuan ran over with a whip, took her hand and said, "Mother, I'm thirsty!" Xiangxiang shook her little hand back and said, "Mother made sweet pumpkin lily soup, go home Drink." Xiao Xuanxuan cheered and ran into the house.Xiangxiang followed behind her, moving step by step.

Zhao Wu was worried and followed all the way, Tao Yizhi ordered someone to invite a doctor.Xiangxiang stretched out her hand, asked the doctor to check his pulse, and said, "Zhao Wu, is he alive or dead now? If he dies, where is his body?"

Zhao Wu hurriedly said: "Princess...you forgot, the last time I went back to Yuyang, there were also rumors that the prince passed away, but did the prince come back safe and sound?"

Xiangxiang said: "In other words, something really happened to the prince."

Zhao Wu was speechless.The doctor next to him said: "My lord, in the frontline war, we are all powerless people, and we can't help you much. What you can do now is to protect your pregnancy, and don't be moved by unwarranted things. Fetal gas."

Xiangxiang said, "I know. Dr. Lao prescribed some anti-abortion medicine."

The doctor responded again and again, and prescribed a prescription to decoct the medicine.Xiangxiang said: "Zhao Wu, if the prince is already dead, you can ask Guan Jue to meet him and send his body back to Mayi City; if the prince is seriously injured, let Tao Yizhi go and take care of him; if the prince's whereabouts are unknown, you can go there yourself Liaodong Duanmu family, please help Duanmu Zhengyang to investigate."

Zhao Wu bowed and said, "Your subordinate is heading to Liaodong right now, princess, you..."

Xiangxiang said: "Go, no matter what I do, it won't help, so take care of yourself."

Zhao Wu was silent, then knelt down, kowtowed three times, got up and went out.

The battle in Liaodong is intensifying. Although there is no war at Pingduguan, they are still preparing for battle at all times and dare not relax.Xiangxiang eats on time every day, and takes all the antinatal drugs prescribed by the doctor. In addition to taking care of Xiaoxuanxuan and Xiaojie, she usually makes some baby clothes and shoes.

Murong Li's letter was still delivered on time, Xiangxiang didn't think deeply about it before, but now she compared it carefully, and found that all the strokes have similar ends and branches, and the color of the ink ingots is also generally the same.All the letters use the same pen, the same color, and even the same shade of ink.He wrote all the letters in one sitting!For the first time, Xiangxiang carefully read his reply letter, stroked every word, then folded the letter paper neatly and stored it carefully.

On June [-]th, Xiangxiang's delivery date is approaching.The family has already hired a new nanny and stable woman, and Xiangxiang is also experienced. When her stomach starts to hurt, she asks the servants to prepare.That afternoon, I received a letter from Murong Li. It was still written in the usual crazy handwriting. I knew she was illiterate, but it was written in a very straightforward way: "If you count the days, you should give birth, right? Is it a boy or a daughter?" Huh? When you announce the good news, you need to use a red and gold-stamped envelope. I will come back later this time, and the name...you take the name first." Su Xiangxiang closed her eyes, tears fell on the paper, The ink blotted away, and she raised her hand to wipe away the water marks on her cheeks.

Some of the baby's fetal positions are not correct, and Mrs. Wen is sweating profusely during the delivery, and Xiangxiang bites the bit to maintain her strength.Outside the room, Xiao Xuanxuan wanted to come in, but Cui Shi stopped her, and Xiao Jie started to cry.Xiangxiang asked the midwives to be quiet, and raised her voice and said, "Xuanxuan, take your younger brother out to play, and let the guards follow you while riding a horse, and be careful not to fall. Mother is fine. When you come back, mother will give birth to a younger brother or younger sister." .”

Xiao Xuanxuan was a little hesitant, and asked, "Mother, are you really alright?"

Xiangxiang smiled and said softly, "It's okay, let's go play."

Xiaoxuanxuan agreed, and turned to lead Xiaojie, Xiaojie said: "Sister, let's wait for mother here."

Xuan Xuan said: "Okay." Xiao Jie said: "Shut up, lest mother think we are afraid."

Xuanxuan nodded vigorously, the siblings stood in the corridor outside the door, Cui moved a small stool for them, and silently accompanied the child.

Xiangxiang's pregnancy went well. At midnight, the baby was finally born, and everyone waiting inside and outside the room breathed a sigh of relief with a loud cry.Xiangxiang's clothes were wet with sweat, but she still stretched out her hand, wanting to hug the child.Wen Po wiped the child and handed it to her, saying, "Congratulations, Princess, you are a big fat boy."

Xiangxiang kissed the monkey-like child, closed her eyes, and passed out.When she woke up again, she said to Tao Yizhi: "Send a good news to the palace and Liaodong, let's report a letter." envelope."

Tao Yizhi looked at her, she was still there, turned around and went down.

Han Xu has always been in Liaodong, he is calm, not easily angry or impulsive, even though he was provoked by Xijing soldiers in every possible way, he still advances and retreats with restraint.Xi Jing borrowed a way from Donghu to go out, and it is impossible to live in Donghu for a long time, so procrastination is the best tactic.

In the evening, he returned to the camp, and the deputy commander reported: "General, Ma Yicheng has sent good news that the princess gave birth to the little prince safely."

Han Xu took the red-stamped envelope, slowly held it in his hand, and asked, "Is there any news from Hero Duanmu?"

There is no news from Duanmu Zhengyang, Yilu Mountain is now full of Xijing troops, and there is no news from Murong Li.Dayan didn't know whether he fell into the hands of Xijing people, logically, no matter whether he was alive or dead, Xijing people would definitely announce the news.But no, now Xijing neither hung up his body nor proposed a condition for him to be exchanged.Duanmu Zhengyang took Zhao Wu's men and a few disciples to search secretly on Yilu Mountain, but there was no news, he even ventured into the Xijing Army, and no one knew Murong Li's whereabouts.A big living person seemed to just disappear suddenly.

Duanmu Zhengyang knows that no news is not necessarily good news. According to Guo Yang, Murong Li was injured by an arrow, his horse was dead, and his sword and sword were lost.

Lan Zi took Murong Ke to search under Mount Yilu, and suddenly saw a person.Lanyou couldn't believe her eyes: "Little dried fish!" Xiangxiang turned her head and smiled at her: "Lan..." She almost called Mrs. Lan, but fortunately she changed her words immediately: "Sister Lan."

Lanyou took a few steps forward, pulled her and said, "Aren't you pregnant?" Xiangxiang said, "It's already been born, more than ten days ago."

Blue glaze said angrily: "Then why are you here? Didn't I send someone a message saying that I'm already looking for it!"

Xiangxiang said with a smile: "I know my sister will try her best to find it, but I can't give up if I don't come and see for myself. Although I may not be able to help, but now the child has a wet nurse, so it's good to come and see .”

Lanyou took her hand, wanted to say something more, opened his mouth, but stopped.After a long time, she said, "You don't want your own body anymore?" Xiangxiang said, "It doesn't matter to me. I'm always in the carriage when I'm on the road, which is similar to confinement."

Lanyou was startled, then turned her head and said: "Ke'er, tell that Zhao Wu that their princess is here, let him come and pick her up!"

Murong Ke agreed and turned to leave. Xiangxiang said, "Ke'er, I'm just here to take a look, don't tell him."

Blue glaze said: "Xiao Yugan, it's dangerous for you to come here like this! What if you can't find him?"

Xiangxiang looked into her eyes and smiled: "If I can't find it, I'll go back." Lanyou was stunned, and Xiangxiang said: "I have been here, I have seen it with my own eyes, and I know whether he is here or not. Anyway, I will go back and take good care of the children."

Blue glaze took her hand and said, "Let's go, follow me."

Xiangxiang said: "I'm walking slowly, take Ke'er to find it. I'm looking around."

Lanyou wanted to say something more, but when she saw Fufeng following her from afar, she just nodded and said, "Okay." She turned around and walked for a while, then turned back, and saw Xiangxiang going door to door asking the nearby residents if they had seen him. Such a person.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of October, Yilu Mountain was covered with heavy snow, Duanmu Zhengyang searched for it for a long time but found nothing, so he had to bring his disciples down the mountain.When Lanyou wanted Zhao Wu to pick up Xiangxiang, she found that Xiangxiang had disappeared. She seemed to have never been here before, and she went silently without knowing where she went.

But at this time, Xiangxiang was climbing the mountain, and Yilu Mountain was snowed heavily to the knees, and some places even reached her waist. A single woman going up the mountain at this time would almost never return.She walked with the utmost care.The terrain of Yilu Mountain is not considered dangerous, but the snow-covered mountains make it difficult to see clearly.The unknown terrain covered by heavy snow is simply a natural trap.

Xiangxiang used wooden sticks to explore the way all the way, and climbed for about ten days before reaching the mountainside.It is said that Murong Li's war horse fell and died here.But now the snow is covering all traces.Xiangxiang stood in the snow for a long time, and Fufeng followed her silently.Murong Li asked him to protect her, and he protected her, but this woman stumbled along the way, and there was nothing that needed his protection.

The mountains are white-headed, heavy snow falls one after another, and the shoulders are covered with fragrance. As far as the eye can see, the sky and the earth are boundless.

"Murong Li—" she shouted loudly, the snow mountain shook, afraid of causing an avalanche, she didn't dare to speak out again.Murong Li's tears seemed to be frozen as well, she sat in the snow as if exhausted, and murmured: "If you don't come out, I'll go back."

After an unknown amount of time, a voice suddenly came from behind, saying, "What are you calling me for?"

Xiangxiang's body tensed up, and it took a long, long time before she turned around.Behind him, Murong Li was wearing a black fur, covered in wind and snow, on the boundless snow field, it was as vivid as a hallucination.

Xiangxiang stood up suddenly, and suddenly flew over, hugging him all at once.Murong Li was knocked back a step by her, and then scolded fiercely: "Damn it! If you don't stay in the mansion well, why are you running here? If you don't make trouble, your feet will itch!"

Xiangxiang felt that she was really cheap. She wanted to laugh when she was scolded like this, but she held back.She softened her voice, and decided to say some sweet words of love to coax this bear-like man: "Murong Li, I miss you." Her tone was as gentle as water.

Murong Li glared: "I just gave birth, can't I bear it? Didn't I give you a pair of jade signs!"

Xiangxiang was so angry that she loosened her arms around his waist and ignored him any more.Murong Li is also angry, you don't want to wait for the royal residence, so why don't you go where there is any danger!If you dare to go up the mountain in such weather, you will become more and more courageous!Damn, the clothes are soaked, and the hands are so cold!When he turned his head and saw Fufeng, he was even more angry: "I told you to look at her, how dare you just look at him like that! One or two dead people."

Fufeng was used to being scolded by him, so he ignored him.Murong Li walked forward with Xiangxiang in his arms, and stopped at the edge of the cliff.He pushed aside the snow and grass, and a long and narrow crevice unexpectedly appeared on the edge of the cliff.Xiangxiang stretched out her head to look curiously, Murong Li went in first, turned her head, and hugged her in too.The entrance of the cave is very narrow, covered by vegetation and heavy snow, outsiders can't find it at all.Xiangxiang thought to herself, no wonder Duanmu Zhengyang didn't find it.

It was dark inside, but warm.Murong Li put Xiangxiang on the cushion of unknown animal fur, and stretched out his hand to take off her shoes and socks.That foot was soaked in snow and water for a long time, and it was like ice.He held the three-inch golden lotus in his big rough hand and kept rubbing it.Xiangxiang reached out to touch him, and asked, "I heard that the prince was injured, is he better now?"

Murong Li patted her hand away, angrily: "I can't die!" He was still angry at her for running to Mount Yilu by herself.Xiangxiang was also angry, since she was fine, she refused to go back home, and she made herself sad and worried for so many days in vain!She lowered her head to see the wound on his body, Murong Li picked her up, warmed her in his arms, and then began to untie his belt.Xiangxiang was puzzled - what are you doing?

Murong Li was annoyed: "Don't you miss me!"

Xiangxiang was really stuck in his chest, and immediately said angrily: "No need, I'll pick it up myself!"

Murong Li also seemed to be blocked by a breath, stared at her for a long time, and finally took a look at her fingers.Xiangxiang finally couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.With this smile, all resentment disappeared.Xiangxiang pressed her face to his chest and asked, "Why didn't you go back home after your lord's injury improved?"

Murong Li said: "If you stay here, you can pay attention to the battle situation. If Han Xu can't stand it, I can help him. And if the battle ceases, His Majesty will definitely punish Guo Yang for the crime of underestimating the enemy and killing the commander. Let him Finding Lao Tzu back will be worth the effort."

Xiangxiang was slightly taken aback, Murong Li told about Guo Yang, Xiangxiang said: "He actually...just came from a humble background to Jinping, and felt that he was not worthy of the status of Princess Jinping."

Murong Li disapproved: "You brat, you're just arrogant and wanting to save face. The person you like doesn't count as fart. You have a noble family background, so you're not worthy of me."

Xiangxiang was speechless.Murong Li asked: "The third child is a boy or a girl? Have you chosen a name?"

"Boy, let's call him Murong Ao." Xiangxiang leaned against his chest and said casually when she heard the heavy snow falling outside.Murong Li was very satisfied, it was a boy's name, Xiangxiang gave him a sneaky look, what name can you come up with, that's all.

In the spring of the following year, Xijing was defeated and asked to surrender.A covenant was made with Dayan at Yuhouguan, Princess Pingyao of Xijing married into Dayan, and the fighting between the two countries was temporarily suspended.Because of his achievements in the battle, Han Xu was granted the title of Marquis of Ningyuan, guarding Yuhou Pass, and Princess Yurou was made the official wife of Marquis of Ningyuan because of the easing of relations between the two countries.Although Guo Yang underestimated the enemy and made a big mistake, he made a lot of meritorious deeds in view of his bravery in battle.General Zhengdong, who was named General of the Four Expeditions, served as an errand under Han Xu.

Murong Li left Yuhouguan with Xiangxiang, and Han Xu and his wife Yurou went to see them off.Outside the carriage, Han Xu saluted Xiang Xiang: "Princess take care."

In the carriage, Xiangxiang said softly through the curtain, "General Han cherishes it."

Fu Fengyang whipped the horse, and the carriage went one step ahead.Han Xu and Murong Li rode their horses together, in the corner of his eyes, the horse neighed, and the princess' car drove away.That was the last time Han Xu saw Xiangxiang. Since then, Marquis Ning Yuan and Princess Xun have never seen each other again.

Then one day, Han Rong, the son of Marquis Ningyuan, was naughty and broke a delicate vial that Han Xu often played with.Yu Rou thought it was a very rare treasure, but when she asked a jade craftsman to restore it, the jade craftsman said it was just an ordinary glass bottle.Looking at the picture, it looks like a small medicine bottle that is often used by the folks in Lingzhi to hold some trauma medicine.

She never knew who the person in Han Xu's heart was, and Han Xu never mentioned it.Husband and wife raised their eyebrows and respected each other as guests.The past is like a city built of sand, every inch of it is broken in the wind.

In the summer of the same year, the Supreme Emperor Murong Xuan died of illness in Yanqing Palace in Jinyang.King Murongbo of Yan recalled the deposed prince Murong Shen and the imprisoned Murong Su and Murong Qian. The six brothers had a stick of incense in front of Murong Xuanling.That night, Murong Shen, Murong Qian, and Murong Su died suddenly for no reason, and Murong Li returned to Mayi City.The Fourth Prince Murong Jian went out of the city to see him off. Although he was blind, but at the moment there were only two brothers left, one was King Yan and the other was King Side by Side, so he finally won't admit his mistake again.He smiled and asked: "Fifth brother, just helping Han Xu out like this, are you really not leading troops anymore?"

Murong Li said: "Ten years is enough. My wife and children are worried after being outside for a long time."

The general took off his armor, put his horse on the sun of Mount Hua, and herded his cattle in the fields of peach forests. He walked towards the setting sun, wore the stars and wore the moon, and hurried back to his home in the border town.

Homecoming is like an arrow.
