Ling Ruo smiled slightly and said: "But the concubine is very confident in the emperor, the emperor is the true son of heaven, God blesses, he will definitely win this battle." ”

Yin Zhen laughed at what she said, and gently scratched the bridge of Ling Ruo's straight nose and said, "According to that, if I lose, won't I greatly disappoint your trust?" ”

"If you live up to it, the concubines will be by your side." As they spoke, Ling Ruo heard the neighing of horses outside the tent, and said with a hint of yearning: "The concubine still remembers that when the emperor took the concubine to the Old Summer Palace for the first time, she rode a horse and galloped fast, like a lightning speed. ”

"I also remember that at that time, you were still in the other courtyard." Speaking of this, he suddenly said, "While there is nothing to do now, can I go horseback riding with you?" ”

Although Ling Ruo wanted to reminisce about how he felt at that time, he refused without hesitation, "The emperor is not in good health, how can he ride a horse, and besides, the army of Junggar is about to arrive at night, and the emperor should recuperate." ”

"It's not necessarily good to be in the camp tent, I'm really interested now, Ruo'er, is it okay to accompany me, and...... After today, I am afraid that I will never find such an opportunity again. ”

"But the emperor's body ......" Before Ling Ruo finished speaking, Yin Zhen had already said: "I'm fine, don't worry like this all the time, at most ride slower." ”

Seeing Yinzhen so insistent, Ling Ruo had to agree, rode with Yinzhen, and slowly ran on the flat ground with the snow all over the ground, and Suori followed behind with a group of guards.

The cold wind blew on his face, with a biting chill, and his breath turned into frost, but Yinzhen looked very excited, and after the running gradually slowed down, he said in a dumb voice: "This feeling really makes me nostalgic, Ruo'er, the first time I met you was in the forty-third year of Kangxi, wasn't it?" ”

Ling Ruo brushed his hair behind his ears and said softly: "Yes, it was also snowing like this at that time, the emperor and the eldest brother rode together on the streets of the capital, and the concubine couldn't avoid it, and was almost injured under the hooves of the eldest brother's horse, it was the emperor who saved the concubine, and you also said a word to the concubine at that time." ”

"Your life is yours, whether you want to do it yourself or not." Yin Zhen repeated the words at that time, word for word.

Ling Ruo smiled at the wind: "Yes, that's it, the concubine was still thinking at the time, this person had a good skin in vain, but he spoke so mean and rude; It wasn't until a long time later that the concubines knew that the emperor's words were actually for the good of the concubines. ”

"Mean and rude......" Yin Zhen smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I don't know how many times I've heard this kind of thing, I've long been used to it." ”

"In retrospect, the concubine should really thank Shi Qiuci, if it weren't for her, the concubine would not have pointed it out to the emperor, and she would not have had such a wonderful life."

"Isn't it wonderful?" Yin Zhen hugged Ling Ruo tightly and said, "I feel that those are all suffering, and in retrospect, the days when you can be peaceful with me are really very few. Ruo'er, if time can go backwards, I will definitely protect you and not let you suffer a little grievance. ”

Ling Ruo leaned on his chest and said softly: "The emperor has treated his concubines very well, and the concubines are very content. There is no doubt that in all dynasties, which king can make such a promise to his concubines, and which one can really do it. So, you don't need to go back in time, just cherish the moment. ”

After being silent for a long time, Yin Zhen said, "Ruo'er, are you afraid? Maybe we're going to really start a war with Dzungar tonight. When the time comes, there will be smoke and rivers of blood. ”

"I'm afraid." Ling Ruo's answer surprised Yinzhen very much, he thought that at this point, Ling Ruo would definitely say that he was not afraid, but he didn't know...... But this is also a good thing, at least he doesn't have to worry about Ling Ruo being injured in this war, "Later, I will let Sori send you back to Beijing, you can accompany me to this point, I am already satisfied." ”

Ling Ruo looked back at him and said with a smile: "Can the emperor listen to the concubine finish his words first." After Yinzhen nodded, she said: "The concubine has never been on the battlefield until now, and she has never seen hundreds of thousands of people fighting, let alone pieces of corpses. If you say that you are not afraid, it is the crime of deceiving the king. But......" she accentuated her tone, "no matter how afraid you are, the concubine will also be by the emperor's side, because the concubine said that she will live and die with the emperor in this life." ”

Yin Zhen didn't speak, just clasped his chin on Ling Ruo's shoulder, and said after a long time: "If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for." ”

Ling Ruo smiled softly and didn't speak, just enjoyed this vast world with him, and enjoyed the sunset together, and this ...... Perhaps the last of their serenity.

When Yinzhen and Ling Ruo returned to the barracks together, several groups of spies had already returned, and when the last batch returned, the Junggar army was less than ten miles away from them.

The whole barracks had been put on high alert, waiting for the war to come at any time, and no one dared to sleep on such a night, staring at the darkness in the distance with wide eyes, lest a giant beast would jump out of it at any time.

Ten Miles...... Wuli ...... Sanli ...... As they got closer, the atmosphere in the barracks became more and more tense, and Sori's palms were all sweaty, sticky and uncomfortable, but he couldn't care about it anymore.

A figure rushed from the darkness, knelt in front of Yinzhen, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the enemy army is less than two miles away from our army, but the enemy army did not march again, but camped in the same place. ”

Less than two miles, that is to say, if the sky is bright now, as far as the eye can see, you can already faintly see the figure of the enemy, and rush over with all your might, even without a cup of tea.

"Your Majesty, what the hell is Junggar doing?" It was Yun Qi who spoke, and in this war, he was one of the princes who fought with him.

Yin Zhen looked at the distance that was invisible due to the darkness of the night, and said coolly: "It's not that they are ghosts, but they don't want to attack with their tired bodies." ”

Yun Qi was fighting with the army for the first time and had no experience, but his mind turned extremely fast and said, "The emperor said that they camped...... Is it for a break? ”

"Yes, after a long day's journey, even the elite soldiers will feel tired, but we are all mentally refreshed, they can't take advantage of such a battle, and Geldan is not such a reckless person, and ...... Now that the grain and grass have been burned, he can't afford to lose, just like us. But such caution is a bit of a pity for us. Yin Zhen rubbed his hand that was a little frozen because he had been waiting for most of the night and said: "Except for the soldiers on patrol, the rest should go back to the camp, before dawn, there should be no changes." ”

Yun Qi and the others respectfully agreed, but for the sake of prudence, they still doubled the number of people patrolling and expanded the scope a little, so that if something happened, they could detect it as soon as possible.
