Because of Beibei's words, Chu Yunning blushed, squinted at Beibei, Beibei pretended not to know, looked at her blankly, and suddenly moved his gaze down to stare at Chu Yunning's flat abdomen.

"It's so cold today. Chu Yunning saw that something was wrong, and immediately got up to leave, but Emperor Mingwen reached out and grabbed her arm, and the smile was still on his lips: "

Where to go, it's snowing heavily. ”

There was a stove burning in the tent, so she didn't wear a thick hat, and at this moment, Emperor Mingwen's big hand was holding her arm, and she could even feel the blazing heat coming through the palm of her hand.

Chu Yunning took two steps back, shook his head blankly, and stammered a little when he spoke; "Just ...... Just take a look. ”

Emperor Mingwen withdrew his hand when he heard this, bent down slightly and touched Beibei's head again, "How is today's calligraphy practice?"

"Uncle Huang, today has not yet begun. Beibei was quickly distracted and turned to practice calligraphy.

The awkward atmosphere gradually eased.

After a while, the voice of Vice General Li came from outside the curtain: "Your Majesty, Xihai has sent troops to Tanglin." ”

Emperor Mingwen squinted at Gonggong Mo, and Gonggong Mo quickly lifted the curtain to let Vice General Li in.

Vice General Li came in with a layer of snow on his head, and after entering the door, he didn't squint, and he didn't even dare to raise his head, so he took out the 800-mile urgent document from his arms and handed it over.

Remember https://m in a second.

didn't wait for Gonggong Mo to take the documents and hand them to Emperor Mingwen, and didn't forget to give Vice General Li a teachable look.

Emperor Mingwen read the document, it was written by Hui Lu, and after reading the content, Emperor Mingwen laughed three times: "Okay! Vice General Li, you will go and order the soldiers and horses immediately!"

Vice General Li was slightly stunned, looked up at Emperor Mingwen, and after his eyes touched Chu Yunning again, he quickly lowered his head: "General Shu Mo is stupid, I don't know what the emperor means?"

"After tolerating Tanglin for a long time, today is just the right time to take revenge!" Emperor Mingwen said in a deep voice.

When the words fell, Adjutant General Li was shocked and said: "Cheng, Cheng, the last general will go and order troops." ”

Vice General Li was excited, he had fought Tanglin once a while ago, but he hadn't enjoyed it yet, and now he finally had the opportunity to fight in a dignified manner.

Waiting for the people to retreat, Emperor Mingwen turned his head to look at Chu Yunning: "After waiting for so many days, I finally waited for this opportunity, I sent 50,000 people to block the people of the West Sea near Nanyang, and the prince of Nancheng declared that there were 200,000 troops, but in fact there were only 100,000, and it was more than enough to fight him!"

"Then I'...... too"

Emperor Mingwen shook his head: "You will stay in the tent, accompany Beibei well, and strive to come back on Chinese New Year's Eve." ”

Chu Yunning saw that his face was firm, and he couldn't refuse, so he had to nod.

The drums outside the camp were bursting, and the morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted.

......

Tanglin

Across a long river, it is impossible to see the form of the opposite bank, and there is a layer of mist on the surface of the river that obstructs the view.

Last month, a sneak attack from the southern end made a mess of the military camp, and now Tanglin has been on increased alert, and not even a fly can fly in.

Suddenly, a guard came to report.

"Shizi, more than 200,000 troops have been gathered on the Xihai side to go to Nanyang City. ”

When the words fell, Nancheng Wang Shizi's face suddenly sank: "What did you say?"

The curtain outside was raised, and Shen Bi didn't even have time to come in with a cold face, and said angrily: "How could the monarch of the West Sea be so stupid, he can believe such words, and he really sent troops to attack Nanyang." ”

"What's going on out there now?" asked the prince of Nancheng.

The guard said: "Back to the world, the soldiers and horses of the West Sea have already arrived at Nanyang City and set up camp. ”

"Stand down. The prince of Nancheng waved his hand irritably, and said to her again: "Now I hope that there will be no movement at the southern end, otherwise it will ......."

Otherwise, the southern end will attack, and he will not have so many soldiers and horses to resist for the time being, Shen Bi bit her lip tightly, and she suddenly had a premonition.

The South End will definitely come!

And it's coming soon.

"If the south end comes...... Shen Bi's thoughts were a little confused, and he squeezed out a smile and looked at the other party: "Maybe it won't come, it's easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it's almost the New Year in half a month." ”

She always remembered the record of Emperor Ming Wen in the history books, writing that he would suddenly stand in the year.

Although there is no specific date, but after the New Year, Emperor Mingwen was established.

He's dying, isn't he?

If Emperor Mingwen died in the army, would the southern end be in chaos?

The prince of Nancheng had a tense face, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and then he was in a hurry for eight hundred miles outside the camp.

"Son, five hours ago, the southern end began to gather troops and horses, and was rushing to the Tanglin border with a large army. ”

Bang!

A thunderclap exploded in his ears, and Shen Bi bit his lip tightly: "What a trick to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, the southern end is simply too despicable!"

In fact, in terms of despicability, the southern end is far inferior to Tanglin's methods, allowing a group of guards with martial arts to bully the powerless old, weak, sick and disabled.

The prince of Nancheng immediately said: "Activate emergency alert!"

"Yes!"

Tanglin's tent began to be agitated, but Shen Bi grabbed the arm of the prince of Nancheng: "Shizi, this year is a cold winter, and there will be a blizzard soon, we only need to stock up on grain, grass and things to keep out the cold, as for the other party's soldiers and horses, we don't have to pay attention to it at all." ”

The prince of Nancheng fell into deep thought.

"Shizi, believe me, what they can't get by is just a bluff. ”

Shen Bi believes that the most important thing now is to preserve strength.

What's the matter, the enemy can't be the will of heaven, and the prince of Nancheng is the destined winner.

Therefore, no matter what the trajectory is, they are the ones who have the last laugh, and after a while, they said: "In order to spend this year safely, I suggest that we prepare some rice and quilts, the more the better, we have the strength to resist the cold winter, and those people outside will only starve themselves to death." ”

Then she will have a chance to fight back.

The prince of Nancheng frowned, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, so he said: "Since it is a cold winter, how should those people spend it?"

Isn't this killing someone?

"Some casualties in the war between the two countries are unavoidable, and those who are not the people of Tanglin, we just need to protect the people of Tanglin from the flames of war. Shen Bi said righteously.

The prince of Nancheng pursed his lips, didn't Shen Bi come from the south?

"Shizi, if one of the two countries has to be sacrificed, who will you choose?"

"Naturally, it's the other side. The prince of Nancheng didn't want to continue arguing with Shen Bi, and said, "How are you going to hoard rice and bedding, half of our military salary is used to buy quilts." ”

"It's far from enough, the more we hoard, and then sell it at a high price in a few days, so that we will have more military salaries. Shen Bi said.

So the prince of Nancheng planned to let people invest all their military salaries in buying things to protect against the cold.

"These must be strictly guarded, no one is allowed to come near, and the candles must be checked every day. ”

In order to prevent the same thing from happening again, the prince of Nancheng arranged for several people to guard these supplies, and several poks of clean water were placed in each tent.

The news of Tanglin was transmitted back to the south by three hundred spies, Chu Yunning just smiled, lifted the curtain and went out, and there were many fewer people in the barracks at once, and it seemed a little empty.

"Ahh Chu Yunning led Beibei to ski in the open field, suddenly sneezed and rubbed the tip of his nose: "It's so cold this year." ”

Seeing this, the soldiers passing by also sighed: "This year is indeed extremely cold. ”

"It's all said that this year may be a cold winter......"

Beibei suddenly tilted his head, "No, I had a dream last night, and a white-bearded old man said that there will be no blizzard this year." ”

"Huh?" Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows, and heard this as a joke.

Beibei didn't notice his mother's face, one foot stepped on the snow, one foot straddled the sled, and he was still holding a stick in his hand: "The old man also said that this winter is about to pass, and there will be the sun in two days, and the new year is early spring, and tomorrow is the last snow of the year." ”

"It's just a dream, you can't take it seriously. ”

Beibei shook his head suspiciously, but when the old man said it, his serious face didn't look like a fake.

Did you lie to yourself?

Hmph, at such an old age, you can still deceive people!

When it came to the evening, Beibei dreamed of the white-bearded grandfather again, Beibei pouted and was unhappy: "My mother said, you lied to me, I can't believe you." ”

"The time hasn't come yet, how can you be sure that I lied to you, your mother just doesn't understand the situation. ”

The white-bearded old man said in Beibei's ear: "Beibei, when did grandpa lie to you, do you remember when you went up the mountain to pick, did you encounter a trap, I reminded you, and I also reminded you of the five vegetable sheds." ”

Beibei nodded thoughtfully: "That's right." ”

"So, I'm not going to lie to you. ”

Seeing that Beibei was not in high spirits, the white-bearded old man suddenly said: "I don't believe that there will be a big snowstorm when you wait for dawn, and the day after tomorrow will be sunny." ”

Beibei woke up the next day, lifted the quilt and put on his clothes, and pushed the door open, the snow half a person high was in front of him, the branches were bent, and everywhere he entered the eyes was white.

"Beibei, stay in the tent and don't come out. Chu Yunning happened to come over, she was worried that Beibei would be buried by the snow, and she couldn't find it.

Beibei nodded and took two steps back, blinked again, and helped Chu Yunning into the camp.

"Mother, it's a big snowstorm today, and the road can't be seen. ”

"It's more than a road. Chu Yunning shook her head, she was tired and out of breath after only walking a few steps, it was only one night, and the heavy snow had already reached the root of her thighs.

Beibei said again, "Mother, yesterday the white-bearded old man said that tomorrow will be sunny." ”

"Dreaming again?" Chu Yunning patted the residual snow on his body, took off his big coat, approached the small stove, stretched out his hand to warm up, hugged Beibei aside and sat down next to him.

"Does my mother not believe me?" Beibei was anxious to prove himself, so he said: "The last time I found poison in the greenhouse, it was given to me by the white-bearded old man in a dream the night before, and a trap was found on the mountain. ”

Listening to what he said seriously, Chu Yunning suddenly stared at Beibei seriously: "Beibei, is what you said true?"

Beibei was brought up by her, she understands her son, when to joke and when not to joke, he is measured.

"Mother, it's true, the white-bearded grandfather won't lie to me. Beibei told the dreams one by one.

"And when did this dream begin?"

She didn't even know it.

"About half a year ago. "By chance he had a fever, and in a daze he dreamed of his grandfather.

Chu Yunning is a modern person, and he is more accepting of these novel and unbelievable things.

After thinking about it, Chu Yunning remembered the reply from the spy in Tanglin, Tanglin was buying grain and cotton bedding everywhere, planning to sell it at a high price, if this was the case, he could think of ideas.

So Chu Yunning couldn't wait to put on his clothes and draped in a big coat: "Beibei, you are not allowed to go anywhere if you stay here, my mother will go out to do some errands, and let Sister Bixiu accompany you."

"Mother, I still dreamed that I had an older brother who was still alive. Beibei said suddenly.

Chu Yunning's footsteps suddenly stopped, he couldn't believe his ears, turned back and clasped Beibei's shoulder: "Can you see what it looks like?"

"A lot taller than me, standing on the hillside and looking at me from afar. ”

"He's still alive?"

Beibei nodded unswervingly, Chu Yunning was surprised and delighted, Chu Er was still alive!

It was nothing short of a bonus.

"Do you know where my brother is?"

The child who has been separated for almost seven years should be very big if he is still alive.

Beibei shook his head: "The white-bearded old man didn't say it. ”

Chu Yunning's tears of excitement were about to come out, and Beibei hurriedly comforted: "Mother, don't worry, we will definitely find the eldest brother, and when I dream of the white-bearded old man at night, I will ask carefully, it's a big deal that I will be his apprentice." ”

The white-bearded old man would beg him to agree to be an apprentice every time he came to his dream, but every time he was rejected by Beibei.

For the sake of the big brother, he is willing.

"Okay!" Chu Yunning touched Beibei's head: "You do have a big brother, his name is Chu Er, and he was ...... when he was only two months old was taken away, Brother Chu'er was not raised by your mother like you, he was very pitiful, and he was not accompanied by his parents. ”

Beibei stretched out his hand and wiped the corners of Chu Yunning's eyes: "Mother, when Brother Chu'er comes back, my mother can hurt Brother Chu'er more, I won't fight with my brother or anything." ”

Chu Yunning smiled with relief: "Well, my mother hurts you together." ”

"Hee-hee. Beibei's smile was even brighter.

After rectifying his mood, Chu Yunning left the camp tent and found the cavalry to write a letter for him to rush to and deliver it to Emperor Mingwen immediately.

After Emperor Mingwen, who received the letter, saw the content clearly, his brows furrowed, and Vice General Li on the side thought that something was wrong when he saw this, and hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

The letter said that they should sell their surplus bedding and coats, and that they would not have to hoard them, but that they would exchange them for weapons or food.

If he hadn't known Chu Yunning's handwriting, he would definitely have killed the messenger directly, mistaking him for a spy from an enemy country.

After hesitating for a moment, Emperor Mingwen made a decision: "Sell the extra bedding and coats, and exchange them all for weapons, food, and money." ”

When the words fell, everyone present was stunned.

They sold the bedding they had hoarded with great difficulty?

And it's snowing hard outside, and without these things to protect them from the cold, they will freeze to death.
