Chapter 627: Fanwai Saibei
The grassland in the early spring of Mobei is still extremely cold, and the withered yellow pasture grass is covered with snow, and there is no vitality at all. The cold wind mixed with snow foam drilled into the neckline of the person.
From the south side of the steppe came a long procession, and immediately the knights were wrapped in thick leather robes to protect them from the cold, and their heads were covered with amphorae, and only a line was exposed under their eyebrows, and they marched slowly on the steppe.
Suddenly, a cacophony of sounds broke the silence of the grassland. The knights in front of them put their hands on the pergola and looked into the distance.
On the horizon in the distance, a yellow wave is surging, spreading in all directions.
"Yellow sheep, it's yellow sheep!" Immediately, the knight's eyes lit up.
The horns sounded, and the knights dispersed, forming a semicircular arc and whistling forward.
A carriage at the back of the cavalry opened a curtain and a young and handsome face peeked out, looking at the cavalry whizzing away. Ask one of the generals next to him, "What happened?" ”
"Back to the prince," the general replied, "the Tartar cavalry have gone hunting, don't worry, Your Highness?" ”
"Hunting?" The people in the car frowned, "Lone still thinks they are going to fight with people!" Is it worth so many for the hunt? ”
"The prince doesn't know," the general continued, "a flock of yellow sheep has appeared more than ten miles ahead, and it seems that there are thousands of them!" If they were to be driven and encircled, it would take at least a few thousand cavalry! It looks like a war. ”
"Hmm......" The person in the car nodded, his eyes scanning the surroundings, "Didn't our people go?" ”
"Lord Wang," the cavalry general said, "General Wu has already ordered us to protect the prince well, and not to move around, and to engage in military law in violation of the order." ”
The cavalry left behind were all dressed in red robes, which were very different from the gray-clad leather cavalry that hunted yellow sheep.
"Well," the person in the car bowed slightly, and asked again, "What about Miss Liu?" Why can't you see her? ”
"Miss Liu...... Miss Liu, she was called by the Tartar lord. The general hesitated and replied.
The people in the car were very unhappy when they boarded, "Why did Yun Xi get mixed up with her again?" Call her back to me. ”
"Yes!" The general answered, ordered some horsemen to ride away.
Seeing their figures gradually blur, the car closed the curtains.
This person is Zhu Qiyu, and after he led his troops to escort King Sain Polo out of Gubeikou, he met a large army of Zerat cavalry led by Ashi Timur and Yuan Qi'er. The two sides joined forces and marched in a northwesterly direction.
Zhu Qiyu walked on the endless grassland for the first time, and walked for more than a month, but he had not yet reached the station of the Urat people. When asked how far Sain Polo was, the high-spirited prince laughed and said that he would continue to walk northwest to a large and boundless lake. They spent the winter there in the winter. At this rate, it will take about a month. Zhu Qiyu was blindsided when he arrived, and after walking outside this desolate fortress for so many days, he already felt crazy, and he couldn't imagine that he would have to walk for many more days.
"Is this going to the end of the earth?" Everywhere you look, there are barren and inhabited fields, which are not comparable to the prosperity and prosperity of Kannai. And every day is nested in the car bumpy forward, a few days after a sore back, if you really reach the destination, it is possible to fall apart. He really didn't know how he had come these days, and what made him feel comforted was that Liu Yunxi had been staying by his side, talking to him to relieve his boredom, and making his journey less difficult.
She told him her real name for the first time, and she was not surnamed Liu, but Li, called Li Xi'er.
He felt that this name was better than Liu Yunxi, but why didn't he use his real name? Liu Yunxi smiled and did not answer. People didn't want to say it, so he didn't ask again.
In this vast wilderness in the north of the desert, Zhu Qiyu felt that he had been abandoned by the whole world, and he even wondered if his emperor brother Zhu Qizhen was looking for an excuse to throw himself in this barren land and ignore it. If Liu Yunxi hadn't been comforting him, he really didn't know if he could endure it, after all, he had never suffered like this before.
"If I can return to the capital again, the imperial brother will put me in the edict of Jinyiwei, and I am willing." In Zhu Qiyu's eyes, the darkest and most terrifying place in Jingshi is also better than the bleak wilderness outside the Saiwai. He was a little envious of the birds that occasionally flew through the sky, and if he could, he would also like to put on a pair of wings and fly away from this place that does not belong to him.
"I'm afraid I'm going to camp in the wilderness again tonight." Zhu Qiyu shrunk his neck, since he left the capital, he had never slept well. At night, it was as if the air was frozen, and when I inhaled it into my nose, it was cold from the inside of my skull to the bottom of my heart, and my hands and feet were numb from the cold. Some people go to sleep at night and never wake up in the morning. He didn't know if he would be like that.
"I heard the British minister Zhang Fu say that he had conquered Annam when he was young, and it was an evergreen place all year round, with no winter and no snow. If only my future fiefdom were in a place like that. He used to think this when he woke up in the night.
"I don't know what Yuan Qi'er called Yun Xi to do?" He lifted the curtain again and looked out, hoping that the familiar figure would appear in front of him.
————————————
Driven by the netting of the Zarat cavalry, thousands of yellow sheep were like fish in a net, and they were gathered in one place and gradually tightened.
Among the mighty and majestic figures of the knights who galloped back and forth, there were two shadows shuttling back and forth like flowing clouds, and the thick fur coats on their bodies could not hide the grace of their figures, they were as eye-catching as the jade lotus flowers blooming in the snow.
One of them wore a fiery red fur, and the other was a snow-white fur, and their faces were as delicate as flowers.
Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the galloping yellow sheep, the girl in red bent her bow and aimed at a yellow sheep, and with a sound of "boom", the yellow sheep fell down in response, and struggled on the grass for a few times before moving.
The girl in red galloped forward on her horse, leaned over like a dragonfly and picked up the yellow sheep on the ground and put it on the saddle, in a very beautiful posture. She reversed the horse's head and smiled at the girl in white, "Sister Liu, it's up to you." ”
The girl in white smiled, Yan Ruochunhua, and only told her to draw her bow and arrow unhurriedly and slowly tighten the bowstring towards the yellow sheep. She aimed at a yellow sheep that was running wildly, and the arrow in her hand was about to shoot, when suddenly a little yellow sheep appeared beside the yellow sheep, and as soon as she let go of her hand, the arrow drew a bright arc like a meteor catching the moon and flew past the side of the yellow sheep's neck. The yellow sheep was taken aback and fled into the flock with the little yellow sheep.
"It's a pity, it......'s a pity," the girl in red shook her head slightly and sighed, "It's just a little bit worse." ”
The girl in white smiled, "I haven't practiced archery for a long time, and I'm a little rusty." ”
"I don't think you're unfamiliar, are you?" The girl in red winked at her, "Seeing their mother and son together, your heart softened?" ”
The girl in white smiled and did not deny it.
"Sister Liu is becoming more and more compassionate now," the girl in red said with a smile, "I can't bear to do it when I see my prey." ”
"If I shoot the big yellow sheep, what will happen to the little yellow sheep?" The girl in white said lightly: "I can't do anything that hurts the peace of the world." ”
"Where's that prince of yours?" The girl in red said again, "Why don't you call him to hunt with you?" ”
"He doesn't know how to ride a horse," said the girl in white, "let alone bend a bow and shoot arrows." ”
"Then what do you like about him, just because of his status as a prince?" The girl in red said.
"Do you have to have a reason to like someone?" The girl in white said, "If Yang Muyun doesn't know martial arts, you won't like him, right?" ”
The words of the girl in white aroused the thoughts of the girl in red, and she sighed faintly, "The one who has no conscience doesn't know where he died?" I was stunned that there was no news from him. ”
"Miss him again?"
"Well," the girl in red raised her eyes, "Sister Liu, do you think something really happened to him?" ”
"Don't worry," the girl in white comforted her, "he has great skills, and he is clever, so he will definitely be fine." ”
"It's been so long......" The girl in red's eyes were a little moist.
"You're so worried about him, why don't you go to him?"
"I want to too," the girl in red looked to the south, "I heard that he got on the sea ship and floated into the sea, Sister Liu, do you think the person who floated into the sea will come back?" ”
"You haven't seen the sea, have you?"
"Well," the girl in red nodded slightly, "I heard that the water in the sea is as boundless as the grassland, I don't know how big it is, and I don't know how deep it is." Although there is no end to the great lake where we are stationed, there is an end to it. ”
"What if you find him?" The girl in white said, "Can he come to the grassland with you?" ”
Hearing her words, the girl in red was silent for a while.
"Qi'er," the girl in white said slowly: "I advise you to forget him, his roots are in Daming, and his family is also in Daming, you shouldn't have any intersections." Let alone...... Moreover, she already has a wife. Why do you want to forget him? ”
"Zhu Qiyu also has a wife," the girl in red said, "What is my sister following him for?" Do you want him to give you a place in his palace so that you can have a place in his palace? ”
"Qi'er," the girl in white said silently for a moment, "You won't understand my sister's thoughts." ”

This girl in white is Liu Yunxi, and the girl in red is Yuan Qi'er, they were already very familiar with each other when they were in Beijing, and this time they are like sisters together.
"How is he going to become stronger, to be the emperor?" Yuan Qi'er laughed.
"Can't you?" Liu Yun said regretfully: "As long as he is willing to rise up, how can he know that he has no chance to be the emperor if he doesn't fight?" ”
"Why don't I understand?" The girl in red's eyes flickered, "My sister has always wanted to restore the Great Xia Kingdom, do you think I don't know?" But is it worth it for you to pin your hopes on such an idle prince? ”
"Is it worth it, I'm going to give it a fight," the girl in white's gaze became deep, "At least he's willing to help me, he asked for this errand for me, and if he wants to be strong, do you think I can ignore it?" ”
