Yan all over the world

Chapter 117: Where is Zhao Yunxin's Judgment (1)
Stretching a little, I unconsciously looked down from the window, and saw Yang Xi pushing the packed peddler's stall to the west of the city, presumably to send the goods home first, my eyes passed by him, and stopped. Standing on the opposite side of Yang Xi, the man who passed by him couldn't help frowning slightly.

It turned out to be Zhu Neng's Baihu Suo Huaien.

Zhu Neng has gone to Yongping with my father, why didn't Suo Huaien follow?
Seeing his walking posture, he was slightly bumpy, and I gave a groan, but the guard beside me was smart and knew Suo Huaien, so he bent down beside me and said, "Princess, Suo Baihu is fighting Geng Shi , took the lead, and was hit by a stray arrow in the leg, so I didn't follow to Yongping."

I nodded, feeling a little weird in my heart, but seeing Suo Huaien's normal attitude, strolling to the pharmacy to get the medicine, and saying hello to people I knew along the way, there was nothing special about it, so I put it aside and didn't think about it.

When I returned to the palace, I met Xiyin as soon as I entered the door. I was taken aback and asked her: "I heard that you have been sent out of the city, why are you back?"

She nodded with a smile, her gaze wandered around, and then quickly returned to me, her dark eyes met me with a smile, and she said softly: "Xiyin and sister have not seen each other for a long time, I heard that sister is back, I really miss my sister, so I hurried back to the city."

At this time, the autumn wind was blowing slightly, and she was dressed in a smoky green embroidered silver thread embroidered lotus palace dress with folded branches. Her head was like cloud green silk, adorned with a few gold silk bead flowers, and a long sapphire hairpin with a slanted hairpin on the cloud temples. There are clouds on the temples of crows, brows are tactful, and eyes are shining, like a clear lake.

I looked at her in amazement, this girl is refreshing every time I see her, she always seems to be able to grow up quickly in a short period of time, and she is brighter and brighter day by day, but——I need to risk my life to miss me Rush back to Peking, where the war is imminent?Miss me needing to dress up like this?

There was quite a look of surprise on his face, and he gently stepped forward to take her hand, "Xiyin, it's rare that you are so affectionate, don't worry, I will take good care of you."

These words are from the bottom of my heart, although I understand her small thoughts, but it is also human nature for her, Mu Xin's posture of Yushu Zhilan attracts her heart, was it her fault?Because of this, I feel a little guilty towards her, because Mu Xin will never feel any tenderness towards her no matter what.

It was rare for me to hold her hand so tenderly and walk towards the inner city. She obediently let me hold her hand, but her palms were slightly sweaty. After we parted, she finally smiled and asked me: "Sister, it's really hard for you to bear such a big responsibility of defending the city alone."

I secretly laughed, this child really grew up, and he talked around like this.

Deliberately ignoring her hints, he said with a smile: "Where is I alone, isn't there your elder brother?"

When she heard my first sentence, her eyes lit up immediately, but after I finished speaking, her bright eyes gradually faded, but she remained calm. I wondered if I was too cold-blooded and heartless, so I hurriedly said in harmony: " Xiyin, I'm really alone this time, Mr. Mu...is separated from me."

Xiyin suddenly raised her head, and in panic, even her tone of voice lost her usual elegance: "Lost!"

I was startled by her unusual tone. I raised my eyes to look at her, but she turned her face away instantly, and when she turned her face back again, she had returned to a calm and breezy appearance, as if I had misheard just now. The voice was as quiet as deep water, and it was ordinary: "Mr. Mu is very skilled in martial arts, even if he encounters a small army, he can protect himself. There must be some delays, so sister don't have to worry."

I was stunned, the words that I wanted to comfort her were actually said by her first, and I didn't know how to answer the words for a moment.

But I saw her trembling body, bowed her head, she was half a head shorter than me, I saw a strand of her hair covering her face, and I saw her slowly stretch her hand into her bosom, as if she was touching something, However, he withdrew his hands immediately, and straightened his messy temple hair instead. After a while, he raised his face and smiled softly at me.

"Sister, I'm going to pay my respects to my concubine mother, and I'll visit you some other day."

I breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, she said goodbye to me, and I watched her walk steadily and leave with a graceful posture.

On the tenth day of October in the first year of Jianwen, there was heavy fog, and the fog shrouded the thick walls of Beiping City and wet the cotton-padded clothes of the soldiers defending the city.

Holding the city wall with my hand, I looked at Li Jinglong's army that was firmly besieging the Nine Gates outside the city. Beside him, Zhu Gaochi had a serious face.

In this battle, we don't want to wipe out the enemy, but we want to be safe. The city has already been prepared to be besieged, so there is enough food and grass, and there is no danger of running out of food for the time being.

But because the previous successive battles consumed a lot of food, and the army took away part of the food, so if the siege took too long, it might not be able to sustain it.

Moreover, the difference in strength is still too great.

After observing for a long time, I turned around and whispered something to Zhu Gaochi. He nodded and issued a series of orders.

"From today onwards, all men and women in the city, those over eight years old and under seventy, will go up to the city wall to watch the night, move bricks and stones, and assist in defending the city."

"Demolish abandoned buildings or non-essential government buildings and collect bricks and stones throughout the city."

"From tonight onwards, no one will go down the city wall, and they will be on duty in three shifts. If there is any movement, they will immediately sound a gong to warn."

Xiaoqi who received the order hurried down the gate, and Zhu Gaochi asked me: "Sister, these few orders can easily shake the hearts of the people..."

I shook my head: "Now there is no need to consider people's hearts, survival is the most important thing, besides, the war is imminent, it is a good way to arouse the people's support, I didn't want to disturb the people, but what I experienced on the street two days ago, I think that we might as well serve as soldiers, the people of Peiping will not disappoint us."

Looking at the movement of the dark barracks on the opposite side, I clasped my fingers tightly on the cold green bricks, and after a long time, said calmly: "If it's not tonight, or tomorrow night, Li Jinglong will definitely send troops to attack!"

Zhu Gaochi was slightly startled, and murmured: "It's coming..."

Under the city wall, along the bridle path, people have already come here with the help of people, some with baskets on their shoulders, and pushing various stones, bricks and tiles with carts. I looked carefully and found that some bricks and tiles were old. There is a gap, obviously it was just taken off the roof, and so many bricks and tiles were taken away so quickly, it must be my own house. .
