On the battlefield outside the Great Wall, it was approaching October, and it was already snowing heavily and frost was falling from the sky.
There has always been a saying that "the north wind blows the white grass on the ground, and the snow is flying in August". Such a harsh environment with cold weather, broken flags and mute drums is not good for the recruits from Yanbei who fled to gather together. It is said that most people find it difficult to adapt.
But marching and fighting is more than just fighting and fighting with the enemy. Sometimes you not only have to face natural disasters from heaven and earth, but also have to travel across mountains and rivers to overcome various dangers and dangers.
War is inherently cruel. It is a game of life and death with no winner or loser.
Murong Fuzhi wanted the new recruits to go to the Northern Expedition for training in order to let them know that the hardships they experienced on the battlefield were far more severe than those they experienced during the hard days of training.
And what they will face and experience in the future is far more than that... ?.?????.???
On this day, a light cavalry galloped from the cold wind desert and stopped outside the Yanbei military camp.
"Stop whoever comes!"
The soldiers outside the camp hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
The leader wiped the snow off his face, and his appearance could still be vaguely discerned on his cheeks that were red from the cold.
"This general is You Tanzhi, the deputy general of the Xiaoqi Battalion. Why don't you report this to the prince quickly?"
"You...General You?"
The soldiers immediately recognized his identity and hurried back to the camp to report.
Not long after, Murong Fu and Wei Liangcheng, who was left in the camp, came to greet him in person.
"Your Majesty, it's too late!"
You Tanzhi, accompanied by hundreds of personal guards behind him, knelt down to pay homage.
Murong Fu stepped forward to help him up and said with relief, "Thank you for your hard work!"
The group returned to the coach's camp.
There is a brazier inside the tent for baking, which is in sharp contrast to the extremely cold weather outside.
Even though You TanZhi has great skills, he couldn't help but feel his lips chapped due to the cold wind and snow that came along the way.
"Your wife is going to give birth soon, otherwise I wouldn't have called you all the way to help. Sese won't be angry with me as a master, right?"
Murong Fu looked at You Tanzhi who was surrounding the brazier and joked.
You TanZhi smiled and said, "Originally, when the Northern Expedition went out, this disciple should have accompanied the army, but it was only thanks to Master's consideration that I was able to stay at home with my wife and children for more than half a year. Both Sesu and I are very grateful to Master for his kindness."
Murong Fu said, "Sure enough, after staying with your talented girl for a long time, even her words are so pleasing to the ears!"
You Tanzhi scratched his head, not daring to accept these words casually.
Murong Fu stopped talking and got down to business.
"You have also seen the climate here. It is difficult for the soldiers to adapt to the environment here, and Yelu Yanxi's military support for our army has also been delayed. Rather than relying on others, it is better to rely on ourselves. Next, we need You form a new army to intercept the enemy's food, grass and baggage."
"Don't these Liao people like to hunt grass and valleys? Just leave them nowhere to hunt, and try not to leave any flaws."
You TanZhi nodded slightly, indicating that he was already very familiar with this kind of thing.
Afterwards, Wei Liangcheng explained to him the affairs in the army. Murong Fu put on his fur clothes, got on a fast horse, and left the military camp alone.
After wandering around day and night for several days, Dragon City was already in sight.
At this time, a snow camel ran towards him in the distance, the camel bell tied around its neck jingled, and he saw a pink and jade-like little girl standing on the hump of the camel, waving to him.
Murong Fu jumped off the horse, tapped his toes on the ground, and rose up again, landing firmly on the hunchback, and took advantage of the situation to hold the little girl who was about to fall down in his arms.
"Qing'er, why are you alone outside the city?"
Looking at the lovely daughter in front of him, Murong Fu's heart almost melted with her.
Xue Qing reached out and touched the beard at the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile, "Qing'er knew that daddy was coming back, so he rode the little white dragon outside the city and waited for daddy every day!"
Little Bailong is the snow camel under his seat. Murong Fu bought it as a gift to Mu Wanqing in White Wolf City that day. Later, he was attracted by this little girl and followed Mu Wanqing behind him. If Mu Wanqing saw that she was lovable, he gave it to her generously.
Among the girls, except A'Zhu, only Mu Wanqing has a unique fondness for Xue Qing. Speaking of which, she and A'Zi had an extraordinary encounter at the beginning. Looking back now, although there are more Embarrassed, but Mu Wanqing still had a different kind of emotion towards Ah Zi, and even liked her daughter a little more.
Therefore, when the little girl begged her, Mu Wanqing agreed without hesitation, even though the snow camel was given to her by Murong Fu.
Murong Fu pinched the little girl's cheek and said dotingly, "My young son is still the best, let's go home!"
"Dad, it's hard for Qing'er to wait for you. When you go to the city later, you will buy candied haws for Qing'er to eat."
"Okay, I'll buy it for you!"
"Qing'er wants two, one for himself and one for daddy."
"Hahaha, then buy two!"
…
When they returned to Prince Yan's Mansion, the girls realized that Murong Fu had not stopped for a moment in order to rush on his way, so they came back one day early.
When they saw the little girl eating candied haws in Murong Fu's arms, the girls couldn't help but feel funny, thinking that they had been doing nothing all day, but today they were not as patient as this little girl.
Azi, in particular, couldn't help but stamp her feet. If she had known that her brother-in-law would be coming back today, she should have gone to wait outside the city and dragged her brother-in-law into the woods, and then came back when she was full.
Now that’s it, there are more wolves and less meat, when will it be your turn?
Murong Fu handed the little girl to A'Zhu, and after saying hello to the girls, he went to see Li Qingzhao first.
In the elegant and chic boudoir, full of scholarly atmosphere, Li Qingzhao was sitting on the bedside, reading a book.
Because of the cold weather in the north, the house was filled with stoves, but at the same time, I was afraid that my wife would be stuffy, so I opened the door for ventilation.
Li Qingzhao, who was nine months pregnant at this time, was wearing a wide shirt, with a high bulge in her abdomen. There was always a trace of fatigue between her eyebrows. She would fall asleep even while reading occasionally, and her body was not as good as before.
During this period, Li Qingluo and Li Gefei also came to visit her for a while, and now they are back, waiting to visit again before Li Qingzhao goes into labor.
After all, Li Qingzhao was pregnant with Li Gefei's little grandson, and although this little grandson was not close to Li Qingluo, she loved the house and Wuxia, and she was full of expectations for the little life that was about to be born.
Li Qingluo felt a little depressed when she thought that her grandson, who she brought up, was no longer close to her grandmother.
Fortunately, now another grandson was about to be born, and she decided to take good care of him this time.
When Murong Fu came to see Li Qingzhao, she unknowingly fell asleep while reading. Murong Fu couldn't bear to disturb her, so he just looked at her haggard face and felt very distressed.
