The snow in the north of the Saibei, only one heavy snow, is enough to cover the northern land with a thick and soft white robe that is thousands of miles wide. The town is better, the country fort is like in the wilderness, the birds are gone, the people are gone, and there is a depression0

The wind was howling, blowing through the streets and alleys of Kaiyuan City, blowing down the snow on the eaves, snow foam fluttering all over the sky, and the occasional passer-by shrunk their necks and hurried by.

Since the beginning of winter, there have been several good snowfalls, for the farmers who are digging in the field, this is a good thing for the snow trillion year, and the north plan has the saying that "winter snow is a granary, and spring snow is not as good as chaff". However, it is conceivable that for the families who depend on animal husbandry for a living, it is a disaster field. They even live in felt tents and shacks, and can they still drive their animals into warm houses? If the livestock freezes too much, the day will not be good.

However, after the first two wars, repeated small-scale clean-up has formed a separation zone of hundreds of kilometers around the border village in northern Liaoning, which is already a no-man's land. Now that it is snowing so much, even if the mad nomadic tribes want to take risks, they will not be able to trek through the heavy snow without horses and legs and rob again.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the officers and soldiers of the guard station frequently dispatched to block and attack the green forests in their defense areas, and it was impossible to completely eliminate them, but all the locks of a certain scale were wiped out with the full cooperation of Xu Tai, Liang Haoyao and other people who were familiar with the green forest thieves everywhere, and the vitality of Liaodong was greatly damaged, and it was difficult to cause great harm.

Early in the morning, the officers and men of the Liaohai Zhongwei and the 30,000 guards stationed in Kaiyuan City assembled and set out to drive into the wasteland and launched the winter coin training slogan, the horns sounded, the horses neighed, the armor was sonorous, and the flags were flying.

In the backyard of the Governor's Palace, the snow is like a plain, a pine is covered with snow, like a huge umbrella cover, Xia Tao's legs are slightly bent, squatting on the horse, and he is standing under the tree. On such a cold day, he actually only wore a pair of calf nose pants and a strong muscle, allowing the cold wind like a small knife to whistle around his body, still with his tongue against the roof of his mouth, his eyes slightly closed, and he stood there motionless.

His body is like an iron casting, his breathing seems to have stopped 0 outside the muscles, bones and skin, and inside to practice a breath, Xia Shi from the outside to the inside, wind and rain are not rough and hard, so that his internal and external martial arts have reached a higher realm, his spirit and spirit, even his martial arts, have grown like galloping.

He has rarely practiced for an hour now, most of the time he just quietly tied the horse, occasionally practiced the knife technique, but also stroked the knife for a moment, and slowly cut out a knife, the knife cut extremely slowly, as if he was careless, but only a few knives down, more tired than he practiced the knife for two hours.

In his early thirties, it is a good time for a man's mind, physical strength, and spirit to reach the peak state, Xia Qi is now able to use the sword of Luo Kedi's original power of heaven, but he can't do it like Luo Kedi's weightlifting and ease.

Finally, Xia Shi let out a long breath and slowly retracted his posture, and the two pro-soldiers who were waiting not far away immediately sent them up, one put a cotton robe on him, and the other handed him a hat.

After the Sakura incident, Xia Shi no longer stopped receiving the women who were offered by the ministry. Sometimes, if you don't accept gifts, you will be blamed, but Sakura's matter, everyone also hints at understanding, only that this prince cherishes his life, for fear of mixing in a female assassin again, so he is as good as a stream, and no longer gives women to entertain the governor.

There were only two Ross girls left in Xia Shi's mansion, and these two girls were also promised to the two generals in the army through his peace.

It's not that Xia Shi is hypocritical, it's been ten years since he came to this world, he has become famous, married a wife and had children, he has completely integrated into this world, and he is no longer the police academy student who longed to be a civil servant one day, but now he is the grandfather of the Ming Dynasty, the husband of his wife, and the loving father of his daughter!

Ten years of life and death have changed a lot of tools, even if an ordinary person lives in a strange place for ten years, he will gradually forget many tools, knowledge, experience, experience, obsession, interest and even himself. Like do you remember your life ten years ago? Maybe there is only a vague image in your mind, but if you go back to it, you can still remember a few details, and it is possible for you to live according to the model of ten years ago today?

The current Xia Qing is like this, living in the present, it also becomes the present, and all aspects of his life are gradually changing, including his ideology. This era is completely a man's world, a successful man's world, and women are one of the most common concoctions at banquets and pillows.

But they are actually not Qinglou women, they have to be kept at home after they have been stained with their virgin bodies, a pair of blonde and blue-eyed Yanmars, it is really not a matter to keep them at home, Xia Tao can hardly imagine what it would be like to let them get along with several of his wives and concubines. Moreover, regardless of customs and habits, they are not different from each other, he is no longer a hairy young man in his early twenties, and for women, he not only needs beauty in appearance, but also needs spiritual comfort and communication, and these two Russ women can't even understand Chinese......

So I can't taste this freshness, and helping them find a home where they can strain their lives can be regarded as a part of getting along.

The winter is cold, he has to practice, and his physical energy consumption is large, and the dishes in the Northeast are just right for his age and today's environment.

Large pots of steamed buns, large pieces of venison, in short, whether it is a staple food or a dish, each one embodies a big character. Xia Qing came back from outside, bathed in hot water, devoured his meal, washed the sea clean, changed into a robe, and went out of the room, he was going to walk around the city to see if any houses had collapsed due to the heavy snow.

He has now faded out of the military and political circles in Liaodong, at least in general, although Zhang Jun and Wan Shiyu, Zhang Xitong, Mo Ke and other officials in charge of the military, politics, education, justice and other systems still report to him in detail, but he mostly just listens, and this kind of report is always connected to the dark level, and he needs these people who he supports to really stand up and stand alone. So he's seeing more and doing less now.

Xia Shi wore a sable fur hat and a sea dragon skin robe, and walked out leisurely. The material of this robe is the best dragon skin, which looks silvery-white from a distance, but when you look closer, it is a shiny black fur, which is very expensive. Xia De is long and jade, handsome and extraordinary, and has naturally developed a kind of majesty after being in a high position for many years, and with such a robe, it adds a bit of grace and temperament. The characters of this book, of course, are the only ones in Liaodong, where the folk customs are rough, and they went to Jinling, and there are few nobles who can compare to 0

"Ministry, someone is here."

The guards were assembling, Xia De had not yet gone out, and a personal soldier reported to him, Xia Shi said "oh", and looked at it, and saw a man wearing a sheepskin jacket, sheepskin pants, felt boots and leggings, and a dogskin hood was striding towards him, his eyelids and eyebrows were covered with towels on his face, and the frost condensed from his breath was white, like Santa Claus.

The corners of Xia Shi's mouth couldn't help but smile: "Xu Jiang, it's you, it's snowy and winter, the road is not easy to walk, right?" ”

The person who came was Xu Jiang Xu Xiaoqi, who was under his door in Daning, Xu Jiang has been following him for many years, and now he has become a member of his secret spy team. Then he replied with a smile: "It's okay, when you go out of the customs, you still feel that you have to rush to Guogong here, and you can't go to Kaichun?" Unexpectedly, the dog climbed the plow and ran faster than the horse, and this skill was like flying. ”

Xia Shi said with a smile: "Dogs can't climb the plow to transport a large number of people, but it is very fast to send three or five messengers." You're from Kannai, do you have any important business? ”

Xu Jiang said: "There is no need to worry about Guogong, there is nothing to worry about in the Guannei, just because Guogong has been away from Jinling for a long time, and he is here to report on some things that need you to decide, and the other is to bring you a letter to Guogong." ”

Xu Jiang said and untied his leather robe, took out a tightly tied letter from his inner pocket and presented it to Xia Shi with both hands, Xia Shi did not go back to the study, he opened the letter and looked at it, at first the corners of his lips were just a faint smile, but those eyes swept down line by line, and when he saw the end, he seemed to be stunned, stared at it with wide eyes and looked at it again, and suddenly laughed loudly and jumped suddenly.

Xu Jiang was stunned, followed by Xia De and laughed a few times, and walked forward excitedly, all the way, all the way to the dance, the excitement was uncontrollable, Xu Jiang touched the back of his head, puzzled, he really couldn't think of what was written in the letter, making Xia Qi so happy.

"Ministry!"

Ming'er is happy! Shocked to hear the good news, Xia Tao couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ran out of the second door dancing, his emotions just calmed down, and there was a shout in front, Xia Shi Dingqing looked at it, but it was Ding Yu, and there was a girl next to him, both of them were dressed in winter fur, the mysterious one was like iron, and the white one was like snow, reflecting the handsome men and women, quite eye-catching, carefully looking, this handsome girl is still a little familiar.

Ding Yu hurriedly greeted him and said curiously: "Ministry, you ...... What's going on? ”

"Oh!" Xia Shi said calmly: "Oh! This is...,"A bud's fitness and health practice is similar to that of the five poultry plays."

Hmm, didn't you lead the team to train the troops, why did you get here? As he spoke, he tucked the letter into his sleeve as if nothing had happened.

"The lowly duty was originally gone, but she suddenly came and told the elephant..."

Ding Yu glanced at the girl with an embarrassed face, suddenly bent his knees, knelt in front of Xia Tao, hugged his thighs and begged: "Ding Yu is in trouble, the ministry must save me!" ”
