When Lin Feng returned to his house, it was already very late.
In the sky, there is snow.
He went straight to the backyard room and saw Bai Yuyao working as a female worker under the oil lamp.
By the light, she was piecing together pieces of old fabric. These are the scattered rags that the mother-in-law and crown princess Wang specially asked people to go to various houses to beg for. After re-washing them, they were given to Bai Yuyao to make Baijia clothes.
Baijiayi is prepared for children. I hope that children will receive the blessings of hundreds of families and have fewer illnesses and disasters in the future.
Bai Yuyao is quite proficient in female embroidery, and she is very deft with every stitch.
Lin Feng walked over, sat down next to Bai Yuyao, and said with a smile: "Yao'er, it's already very late. Even if you use an oil lamp, the light is dim. It's very difficult to use your eyes at night. If you want to make clothes, do it during the day. , don’t be in a hurry this moment and a half.”
Bai Yuyao said: "Don't worry, husband, there are still a few more injections and it will be over."
Lin Feng nodded.
He sat aside and quietly watched Bai Yuyao move the needle. Today's Bai Yuyao is a little plumper, but even more charming. Especially after pregnancy, there is a touch of maternal tenderness.
While moving the needle, Bai Yuyao glanced sideways at Lin Feng. When she saw Lin Feng looking at him foolishly, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "What are you doing looking at me?"
Lin Feng said: "It looks good!"
Bai Yuyao said angrily: "I watch it every day. Is there anything good to see?"
Lin Feng said: "Even if I watch it every day, I never get tired of it. My Yao'er is like an immortal descending to earth."
Bai Yuyao's charming face had a touch of shyness, and she felt happy inside, but she said: "My husband is really a talkative person."
After a pause, Bai Yuyao continued: "I heard that my husband had a conflict with the people from the Yan State's mission today, and even killed Shi Hu, a warrior from the Yan State. When something happens, your husband should not rush to the front every time. , it would be bad if I get hurt. It’s okay if I don’t ask for anything from my husband. As long as my husband is safe, that’s fine.”
Lin Feng said: "Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion."
The two of them were talking, and after a short while, Bai Yuyao sewed up a scrap of fabric and put the child's Baijiayi aside for the time being.
Lin Feng said: "One more thing. Tomorrow morning, I will set off south for a trip to Jinling in the Kingdom of Jin. I estimate that I will stay in the Kingdom of Jin for a while. I am not at home, so you have to take good care of yourself."
Bai Yuyao raised her brows and was stunned for a moment, and then there was a look of reluctance on her charming face.
She was used to Lin Feng being around.
Don't want Lin Feng to leave.
Bai Yuyao didn't ask any more questions. She nodded solemnly and said, "My husband is going to Jin this time. Please take care of yourself."
Lin Feng explained: "Don't worry, my mission this time is on behalf of Great Qin, as an envoy of Great Qin, so you don't have to worry."
Bai Yuyao said: "My husband will leave early tomorrow morning. I will pack up and prepare a change of clothes for him to go south. After all, it is a long way from Xianyang to Jin."
Lin Feng put his arm around Bai Yuyao's waist and said with a smile: "Stop working and talk to me."
Bai Yuyao stopped, feeling a little depressed, but she still forced a smile, chatting with Lin Feng, and even told Lin Feng to put safety first after arriving in Jin.
The two chatted and the time passed by unconsciously. At the end of the night, Bai Yuyao looked at Lin Feng and said, "It's late at night. My husband has to leave tomorrow, so I'll rest early. I'm pregnant and can't serve you. I'll ask Qinghe to serve you."
Qinghe is Bai Yuyao's personal maid.
According to today's rules, a maid as a dowry is equivalent to a concubine. When the mistress is unfit, she will serve on her behalf.
Lin Feng said: "No need, you are enough."
Bai Yuyao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but a smile appeared on her face.
Lin Feng was so kind to her. All the maids in the world were serving people. Even most women in the world cannot even see their husbands at night after becoming pregnant.
Not to mention someone like Lin Feng, who has been sleeping with her every night since she was pregnant.
There is no other man like this in the world.
Lin Feng helped Bai Yuyao take off her clothes, and the two fell asleep hugging each other.
A night without words, the next morning.
Early in the morning, when Lin Feng opened his eyes and prepared to get up, he found that his side was already empty.
Bai Yuyao had already gotten up early.
Lin Feng got up and put on his clothes, but Bai Yuyao came in and said with a smile: "My husband is up, I have prepared a change of clothes for the trip south, as well as some dry food for the road, and some money, in case my husband needs it. The morning breakfast is also ready, husband, please prepare to eat."
"Okay, let's eat together."
Lin Feng smiled and nodded in agreement.
He washed up and had breakfast with Bai Yuyao.
Today's weather seems to be extremely cold. Although the snowflakes are not big, there are gusts of cold wind, and the ground is completely white.
When Lin Feng was about to leave, Bai Yuyao walked to the door personally. Although the last time Lin Feng traveled from Yongning County to Xianyang, the couple were separated, but the distance was not too far and they were both in Qin State.
This time, Lin Feng wanted to go to Jin Kingdom, which seemed to be far away.
Bai Yuyao was extremely reluctant to leave.
Lin Feng wore a big cloak and walked to the carriage with Gao Xiaoyu. He stopped, looked at Bai Yuyao at the door, and said with a smile: "Yaoer, as soon as I arrive in Jin, I will write a letter and have it sent back. You Don’t worry about it.”
When Bai Yuyao heard Lin Feng's words, her spirits perked up, as if she suddenly gained energy. With a smile on her face, she said: "I am in Xianyang, waiting for my husband's letter to be sent back."
Lin Feng said: "Take care of yourself, I'm leaving."
He got into the carriage, Gao Xiaoyu quickly got on the carriage and drove away himself.
The carriage drove away. When it was far away from the street and the back of the carriage could not be seen, Bai Yuyao returned to the house feeling a little disappointed. After all, once Lin Feng left, he didn't know when he would return.
The carriage galloped all the way, running over the broken snow on the ground. When it reached the city gate, Gao Xiaoyu reined in the horse and stopped, saying, "Sir, there are the emperor and Wang Tang at the city gate."
Lin Feng lifted the carriage door curtain, looked forward, and saw a group of people at the city gate.
Astonishingly, it was Ying Jiuxiao, Ying Yuqian and Wang Tang.
Lin Feng quickly got off the carriage, with a smile on his face, and stepped forward to salute.
These people are all his elders.
Ying Jiuxiao was wrapped in a big cloak, and he smiled and said: "Lin Feng, I am going to the Jin Kingdom. I wish you immediate success. However, you have no weapons, so it is inconvenient after all. I will give you a sword."
He waved and Ying San handed over a sword.
Ying Jiuxiao took it and said: "This sword is called Chun Lei. It was made by Lu Shenfeng, the forging master of the Xia Kingdom a hundred years ago. It cuts iron like mud and is extremely sharp. This sword traveled to the Great Qin royal family and is now given to it as a gift. for you."
Lin Feng took it and looked at it.
The Spring Thunder Sword was four feet long. Lin Feng held the hilt of the sword and applied a little force, and the blade came out of its sheath with a clang.
A cold light suddenly appeared.
Lin Feng unsheathed his sword, flicked it with his fingers, and the sound was as crisp as a dragon's roar, echoing endlessly.
"A good sword, a really good sword."
Lin Feng returned the sword to its sheath and wore it on his waist. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandfather. I'm sorry."
Ying Jiuxiao smiled and said: "This Spring Thunder Sword is prepared for you. Although you have a heavy responsibility when you go to Jin State, I still say that your safety is the first priority in all actions. Even if you are here, I will I am not afraid of the siege from the Four Kingdoms."
Ying Yuqian echoed: "Xian son-in-law, what my father said is right, safety comes first."
Wang Tang said: "In short, don't show off."
Lin Feng responded one by one, with a bright smile on his face, and said: "I will act according to the opportunity. What's more, I am going to Jin this time and have already contacted the Xie family of Jin. There shouldn't be any big problems."
Ying Jiuxiao said: "Okay, it's getting late. It's freezing cold. Go early and come back early."
"Grandfather, I'm leaving."
Lin Feng bowed and saluted, then saluted Ying Yuqian and Wang Tang one by one, and got into the carriage.
At this time, Yingwu had already followed.
The three of them left Xianyang City and continued walking out. However, the carriage drove forward for about three miles. Suddenly, Gao Xiaoyu reined in the horse again and said, "Sir, His Majesty Wang Yue is in front."
After Lin Feng heard this, he raised the curtain of the carriage again and saw Wang Yue in front of him.
In the cold wind, Wang Yue stood alone.
Lin Feng hurriedly got off the carriage, walked up casually, and said with a smile: "Brother, why do you have to come in person? It's very cold, especially standing in the cold wind."
Wang Yue shook his head and said: "No problem, I have nothing to do. My father and Your Majesty will see you off at the gate of the city. I have a lower status, so I have to wait further away."
There was a smile on his face. As he spoke, he took out a package from the carriage next to him and handed it to Lin Feng: "Brother Xian, this is the gold silk armor I found in the Wang family's treasury. You go The Jin Kingdom is surrounded by dangers and is very likely to face various dangers. It will be much safer to wear soft gold silk armor inside. At least most swords and guns cannot break through soft gold silk armor."
Lin Feng took it and said, "Thank you, brother."
Wang Yue said: "Brothers, you and I said thank you and left. Although my father didn't mention it too much, I know that going to Jin will be very dangerous and you may even encounter various difficulties."
"In short, wearing the soft gold silk armor will not go wrong with an extra layer of protection. Besides, you are always the center of attention wherever you go. Jin people are very proud, so keep a low profile."
Lin Feng felt warm in his heart as he listened to Wang Yue's ramble.
Lin Feng said: "I will keep your brother's instructions in mind."
A gust of cold wind blew, and Wang Yue couldn't help shivering. He said quickly: "It's getting colder and colder today. It's freezing cold. Get in the carriage quickly and go south as soon as possible."
Lin Feng cupped his hands and said, "Brother, please take care of yourself. I hope that when I come back, Xianyang will be in good health."
Wang Yue said: "Definitely."
Lin Feng put away the gold silk armor, returned to the carriage, and continued to leave in the carriage.
This way south, from Xianyang to the east, we must first pass through Chang'an and Luoyang, then turn south and enter the boundary of Jingzhou of the Jin State, and finally take the waterway all the way east to Jinling of the Jin State.
The journey is quite long.
This cannot be achieved overnight.
Lin Feng specifically asked Gao Xiaoyu to speed up the carriage. In just five days, Lin Feng, Gao Xiaoyu and his party passed through Luoyang, turned south, and took the border of Xia State to the direction of Jingzhou of Jin State.
Although the weather in Xiangyang, Jingzhou in the south, is cold in December, it is not as cold as Xianyang.
It’s December in Jingzhou this year and it hasn’t snowed yet. After all, the climate in the south is different, and the timing of snow, sometimes early and sometimes late, is not as fixed as in the north.
As night fell, the carriage drove on the official road in Xiangyang, Jingzhou, but there were no villages along the way.
Gao Xiaoyu said quickly: "Master, we are going south all the way. We are still a few hours away from Xiangyang City, and we cannot reach it in a short time. Now, it is already dark again, and we have never encountered a village, so we can only find a place to stay. Take a rest for the night.”
Lin Feng said: "It's up to you."
Gao Xiaoyu agreed and the carriage continued to move forward. In less than two quarters of an hour, Gao Xiaoyu saw a dilapidated Taoist temple on the side of the road. He stopped directly and said, "Sir, it's almost getting dark. Let's rest here."
"good!"
Lin Feng got out of the carriage.
The group entered the Taoist temple. Lin Feng, Gao Xiaoyu and Ying Wu quickly cleaned up and then lit a bonfire inside the Taoist temple. Fortunately, there is a lot of wood in the Taoist temple, so it will be no problem to keep the fire going tonight.
The three of them sat down and ate dry food, while Lin Feng listened to Ying Wu talk about some of the customs and habits of Jin.
This is the news that Heibingtai has long inquired about.
"Herodus!!"
Suddenly, the horses began to neigh.
Lin Feng, Ying Wu and Gao Xiaoyu were all on guard when they heard this. Immediately afterwards, a burst of rapid footsteps came. Lin Feng looked up, but his brows rose, quite unexpectedly.
At the gate of the dilapidated Taoist temple, a woman covered in blood staggered and fled into the Taoist temple.
This woman is Xu Liuli.
