Chapter 524: Under the Nest
It was dark, and there was silence everywhere, so quiet that you could hear the sound of snowflakes falling to the ground, and Xian Yi saw that Flawless was asleep, so she took the food box out of the room, and softly closed the door and left.
The cool breeze blowing on the water was chilling to the bone, making her body tremble involuntarily. Turning the corridor, a dark shadow leaned on the edge of the railing and looked up at the snowflakes, the long figure was hidden in the shadows that the corridor lamp could not illuminate, and the facial features were blurred, but Xian Yi already knew who the person was.
As soon as the footsteps retreated, the corridor was a must-pass place, and she couldn't retreat.
Yu Chenghao turned his head, his dark eyes stared straight at Xianyi, and Xianyi lowered his head, wanting to pass by, but he reached out and clasped his arm and grabbed it.
"Xianyi, you're avoiding me. ”
"Nope. The insincere words made Xian Yi obviously lack confidence, she shook her hand, but although Cheng Hao didn't use force, she still couldn't shake it off.
"You let go!" The tone was a little quick, Xian Yi turned around to push the man, but Cheng Hao didn't move at all under the push.
"Who's that man!"
With a sudden jump in his heart, Xian Yi raised his head and glared at him fiercely: "Which person!"
"The person in your heart, even if you have never heard of it, but still hide it in your heart, who is he?"
"I don't know what you're talking about!" Xian Yi let go of his hand and took two steps back, then stood still, but still stared straight at her, not avoiding it at all.
"With this effort, it's better to think about why no one noticed that Childe went out last night, and why he was drugged and didn't know. ”
Yu Chenghao exhaled lightly, turned his head, and looked at the snow curtain: "Gong found a clue in the dining room, it seems that the people of Guiyunzhuang can't stay in this garden, Brother Huo will go to negotiate with Xu and let their people withdraw from this garden, and they will also pay special attention to their diet and daily life, but Gongzi's meals have always been separated from us, and they are all handled by you personally, but why do you also make mistakes, you sent food over yesterday, have you met anyone?"
Xian Yi was shocked when he heard this, and said: "I met Xu Yu on the road, he asked about the situation of the son, and said that Leng Qiuzhi rushed back from outside Danyang in two days, but the food box has always been in my hand, and he has no chance to contact it at all." After saying that, Xian Yi thought for a long time, then opened the food box and leaned under the corridor lamp to take a closer look.
"What is here?" Yu Chenghao came to her side to look at the food box with her, and found that there was a little powdery thing in the bamboo strip gap on the top cover of the food box, so he asked Xian Yi to hold the box lid, and he lightly buckled the back of the box with one hand, and caught it below with the other hand, and when the box lid was removed, he found that there was some pale yellow powder falling on his palm, he took his hand and put it under his nose to smell, his face changed, and said: "It's mandala powder, after eating it by mistake, it may produce hallucinations, Gongzi woke up today with dry lips and hoarse voice, thinking that it is a complication!"
"No wonder Childe doesn't remember how he got out, he must have seen some hallucination, and walked out unconsciously. Xian Yi lowered his head, carefully recalled the scene when he met the promise, but he couldn't remember that he had any inappropriate actions to touch the food box, Yu Chenghao saw her distressed, smiled far-fetched, and said: "Forget it, everything has happened, we are powerless to undo it, promise his people should pay great attention in the future, it's late, you are tired for a day, go back to the room early to rest." ”
"Childe can't leave anyone at night, so I'll go and put things away, and I'll wait in his room tonight. ”
Xian Yi turned around to leave after speaking, but was pulled by Yu Chenghao's hand, seeing that her eyebrows were tired, Yu Chenghao said distressedly: "Come for me tonight, you go to sleep." ”
"No need, I can't sleep at all if my son is not well, guarding him, but my heart is a little more stable. ”
"You have to take care of your body, too. The tone was a little more anxious, he knew that although Xian Yi was short-tempered, but her mind was very delicate, she followed the son every day to take care of the diet and daily life, boiling soup and delivering medicine was very hard, but she never heard her cry that she was tired, and she was always afraid that she had not done enough, not good enough, so that others were very distressed, and she learned the strong temperament of the child, and never showed her vulnerability in front of others.
"I'll be with you. After Yu Chenghao finished speaking, he reached out and took the food box, and regardless of Xianyi's objections, he took the lead towards the dining room.
The wind and snow became heavier and heavier, and the road was only half cleared, but the soldiers were already too tired to do it, because the landslide happened suddenly, and now the 30,000 horses were blocked in the middle of the road and could not advance or retreat, and there was no place to camp without sheltering from the wind and snow.
"General. Wu Hesheng entered from outside the tent, saw Bai Shaoqing put on his armor after soaking his hands, and hurriedly walked over and said: "The wind and snow are too big tonight, I have ordered everyone to rest, and the general should also rest. ”
After a pause with both hands, Bai Shaoqing glanced up at him, then nodded, and said with a smile: "That's true, it's because I'm too anxious, it's okay, I'll go everywhere to see, you're tired all day, go to bed early, and you can have the energy to deal with it tomorrow." ”
Wu Hesheng knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he had to let go of his body and said, "My subordinates will go with the general." ”
Bai Shaoqing did not shirk when he saw this, the two of them went out of the tent and walked all the way, except for the team responsible for patrolling and guarding on the way, the rest of the people were so tired that they fell asleep.
Bai Shaoqing carefully inspected the camp tent by camp, and when he saw the soldiers who had not been covered tightly, he lightly arranged the velvet blanket for them, and also took out the ointment for the treatment of chilblains from the brocade bag he carried with him and applied it to the soldiers whose hands were ulcerating.
I heard that when he was a child, he went out with his family and encountered water bandits, and all his family members were killed, and he was the only one who was rescued by General Mo Feng and saved his life.
"What's wrong? There's something on my face?" Seeing Wu Hesheng staring at him, Bai Shaoqing couldn't help but reach out and wipe his face, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I'm a man, if it were a woman, I would have been scared away by you staring at me like this." ”
Wu Hesheng couldn't help laughing when he saw him joking, and said, "I heard that the general adopted a righteous daughter, who is very well-behaved. ”
Hearing Wu Hesheng mention Yumo, Bai Shaoqing couldn't help but have a smug smile on his face, gestured, and said while walking with Wu Hesheng: "Not to be well-behaved, it's really loved, I was adopted by General Mo and was able to take care of it, and now my daughter has a similar background as me, so it's really fateful." ”
"The general must have missed her, it's been so long. ”
"Yes. Bai Shaoqing sighed and said softly: "Thinking of her immature voice and the appearance of calling her father, thinking of her happy smiling face, thinking of her figure chasing the horse's hooves and saying goodbye behind her, she said, 'Daddy, my daughter is waiting for you to come back ......' That situation is deeply engraved in my mind, and I can't erase it......" As she spoke, Bai Shaoqing slowly lowered her head.
The man who bled and didn't shed tears on the battlefield burst into tears because of the little man who touched the depths of his heart. Bai Shaoqing took a light breath, raised her head and stood up, and sighed: "Her father died because of my capture, and I am ashamed of that child, so I must raise her well and give her a bright future." ”
"Yes! When this battle is over, when Hebodo's army rolls out of our Great Jin land, the general will be able to go back to see her. ”
Dense snowflakes hit his face with the wind, the cold touch made people sober, Bai Shaoqing did not speak, he knew how cruel survival on the battlefield was, no one could guarantee that he would not be harmed, but he also knew that as long as there was a slight opportunity, he would not give up his life, because his life also carried a promise to another person.
However, things in the world are impermanent, Bai Shaoqing at this moment does not know what kind of heavy blow he will encounter in just two days, the blow is fatal and irreversible, because if it can be recovered, he will not hesitate to give up his life to save a qiē, but if there is no if, it will be like a sharp arrow with a bow, and it will never be able to turn back, and there are some things that we can never grasp.
The gates opened, and the procession entered the castle of Nagano in an orderly manner.
Huo Yuanyuan and Fu Mu waited in the Changye military camp for the dragon-like team to wind in, and the scouts had already brought back the other party's documents, and Wu Feiyun personally wrote a letter, ordering five thousand people and horses of Julu to enter Changye to assist Hou Ye's food grabbing team. Huo Changyuan felt strange, the mighty Marquis Mansion and the Xiangguo Mansion have always been incompatible, how could the Xiangguo Mansion assist Baishan's grain-grabbing team at this moment? The Hou Ye did not mention it in his last letter, but the Xiangguo Mansion sent such an upright team, which made it impossible to doubt.
"Let people be more vigilant, and don't be careless. ”
"Yes. ”
Ma Chengyuan sat on the horseback, pretending to inadvertently sweep the gate of the heavily guarded barracks, and then raised his voice from afar with a smile: "General Huo, don't come unharmed." ”
Huo Changyuan stepped forward with Fu Mu, waved his hand, and said, "General Ma has worked hard all the way, Young Master Feiyun is so generous this time, and sent so many people to help, which really makes Huo at a loss." ”
Listening to his implicit insinuation, full of doubts, Ma Chengyuan only smiled, jumped off the horse and bowed back: "General Huo is polite, it is the responsibility of all our Jiuyuan soldiers to resist foreign enemies, although they are different in their orders, but the goal is the same, Young Master Feiyun received the letter from Hou Ye this time, and he ordered us to come without delay, saying that he would do his best to assist Hou Ye and Nagano soldiers, although we are few people, but we will never drag everyone back." ”
"So...... "With a wave of his hand, the 5,000 soldiers and horses swaggered into the hinterland of the Nagano military camp, and the remaining 5,000 soldiers and horses had already divided into two ways and went straight to Xiaochi Town, which was going to meet the Baishan team!
