Chapter 69 was faster than he thought
Gu Zhixing has never been a person who pretends to shirk.
Su Mian didn't want to be in the same room with him, so he kept watch outside all night, Su Mian let him in, and he slept beside her frankly.
Lying down with a wash, Gu Zhixing still felt a little like laughing.
Without him, he simply felt happy that Su Mian would take the initiative to invite him in to rest.
As soon as he lay down, Su Mian felt that the temperature around him suddenly became much warmer than when she was alone just now, although she was facing away from Gu Zhixing, she was still a little nervous inexplicably.
The last time was to keep him from running alone to peek at the letters, this time ......
is afraid that he will not rest well as the commander of the army, but out of concern.
"Still can't sleep?" Gu Zhixing listened to the chaotic breathing sound of Su Mian in his ears, and said, "Why don't I tell you a ......?"
"No need!" Su Mian quickly interrupted him, subconsciously wrapped the quilt tighter, and then thought that there was only one quilt here, so he let go of his hand and pushed the quilt towards Gu Zhixing.
In the middle of the night, neither of them expected this kind of thing, and at this time everyone was resting, and it was a little troublesome for someone to make a special trip to hold a quilt.
Sensing her movements, Gu Zhixing smiled, simply put most of the quilt on Su Mian's body, and gently patted her on the back.
"How can a person who practices martial arts be afraid of the cold? Cover more so that you don't catch a cold. ā
Su Mian paused slightly, didn't say more, and wrapped the quilt tighter as she said.
"Sleep, we'll be on our way early tomorrow morning." Gu Zhixing said in a low voice.
Su Mian obediently closed her eyes and stopped talking, but her heart gradually quieted down, and she felt a little inexplicably relieved.
Obviously, she was very energetic when she was alone in the tent just now, but with Gu Zhixing by her side, it didn't take long for her to fall asleep peacefully.
Gu Zhixing deliberately relaxed his breathing, and waited until Su Mian fell asleep, then he carefully took the person into his arms.
Shake her hands again, and sure enough, it's cold.
Quietly condensed his internal strength, afraid that she would not be able to bear it, Gu Zhixing slowly warmed her hands and feet, and it didn't take long for Su Mian's face to become ruddy, and he withdrew his hand.
Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he wanted to put the person away, but he didn't expect that as soon as he moved, Su Mian seemed to notice something, reached out and grabbed his clothes, and the whole person drilled into his arms a little more.
Gu Zhixing was slightly stunned, and the corners of his lips hooked up in a small arc.
Reaching out and stroking her long silky hair a few times, he hugged the person a little tighter and closed his eyes.
A good night's sleep.
ā¦ā¦
Early the next morning, Su Mian was woken up by a voice not far away.
The 500,000 army had already gotten up to prepare, and Lu Zhe and several generals also got up early and sat together in twos and threes, intending to eat some rations to satisfy their stomachs.
"Although this Northern Yuan is not weak, compared to our Western Sage, it is still a lot worse, do you think that the lesson of the last time is not enough, and this time it is actually coming back?" A man dressed as a general said to the people around him.
"Who's to say it's not." The other nodded in agreement: "Although the emperor attaches great importance to this matter, everyone knows in their hearts that with the prince here, Beiyuan can't make any waves." ā
"Anyway...... Why hasn't the prince gotten up by this time? Do you want to send someone in and shout? The man who spoke just now suddenly realized something, and glanced at the direction of Gu Zhixing's tent a little strangely.
This person's name is Zhang Ziqing, one of the generals who accompanied him on this expedition, and his name sounds weak, but he is really brave when he fights.
Someone next to him glanced at him and deliberately asked, "Lao Zhang, why don't you go?" ā
"Me?" Zhang Ziqing shook his head: "I'm not going, if I meet the prince in a bad mood, then wouldn't I be bored......
Several big men of five big and three thick joked with each other, and in the tent, Su Mian finally opened his eyes because of the noise.
As soon as he replied to some meaning, he felt that his whole body was warm, and when he looked up again, sure enough, what he saw at a glance was Gu Zhixing's deep black eyes.
Tsk, I knew that I must have woken up in Gu Zhixing's arms......
I was already immune to this matter, Su Mian simply lifted the quilt and sat up.
"Not sleeping?" Gu Zhixing deliberately teased her.
Knowing that he was ridiculing himself, Su Mian snorted coldly, and with a bit of an early wake-up atmosphere, he deliberately said to him: "If you want to sleep, you can just sleep again, and let the 500,000 troops and generals outside just wait." ā
With that, she turned around and walked out of the tent, intending to find a place to wash.
A smile crossed Gu Zhixing's eyes, and then he got up and walked out.
A few people over there were eating dry food while discussing who was going to take a look at Gu Zhi's behavior and hadn't gotten up yet, and before they could come up with a result, they saw the two of them leaving the battalion commander one after the other, and they were all stunned for a while.
Among them, the most surprising was Lu Zhe.
"This, this ......" He forgot to eat the dry food in his hand, and looked at the direction in which the two of them left one after the other, thoughtfully.
The two of them stayed together again last night?
It seems that this speed is much faster than I thought......
The group of big men around was also a little confused.
Didn't Lu Zhe say last night that the prince and Miss Su had some discord recently, so let everyone be careful when talking, if it was really discordant, why did they live together last night?
A few people looked at me for a while, and I looked at you, and they all felt a little confused.
"Lu Zhe, are you sure that the prince still needs us to come up with an idea to match him and Miss Su?" Zhang Ziqing asked.
That's right, Lu Zhe was planning to brainstorm last night, and it was best to let the two reconcile quickly.
This battle will be won no matter what, and it would be a good thing if you could take this opportunity to reconcile the two of them quickly, and save yourself from worrying all day long.
ā¦ā¦
After packing up, the army continued to advance in the direction of the border.
"Lord, we should be able to reach Baisha Pass at dusk today, we can set up camp in front of Baisha Pass, set off early tomorrow morning, and we can pass through within a day."
A pioneer went to the front to explore the way and came back to report.
Baisha Pass, as the name suggests, is full of sand of different shades on the ground, although it is not as good as the desert, it is indeed a little difficult to walk.
If the sun is bigger during the day, the sun hits the sand, it looks like a white sand sea, hence the name Baisha Pass.
Lu Zhe rode his horse beside Gu Zhixing, and when he saw that there was no one on the left and right, he asked in a low voice, "You and Su Mian...... Reconciled? ā
Gu Zhixing glanced at him a little amusedly, and then replied, "No." ā
"Then ......" Lu Zhe's expression was a little suspicious, but he didn't finish his words.
Knowing what he was thinking, Gu Zhixing said, "I forgot to explain yesterday, and the people who set up the camp thought I was going to live with Ah Mian. ā
"I see." Lu Zhe nodded suddenly, and couldn't help but feel a little sorry in his heart.
And when the two of them were reconciled......
ā¦ā¦
After another day of walking, everyone arrived at Baisha Pass before dusk.
Although we can continue to move forward, we will not wait to go out, the sky will be completely dark, and it is not easy to settle in Baisha Pass, so I have to stop here and set off again tomorrow morning.
"Why don't you leave?" Su Mian stayed in the car all day, and when she saw that the large army suddenly stopped, it seemed that she was planning to rest, and she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
Seeing her jump out of the carriage, Gu Zhixing opened his mouth to explain to her.
"So, when we pass through Baisha Pass, we will be there in four days?" Su Mian raised his eyes and looked into the distance.
"Hmm." Gu Zhixing nodded: "If it's fast, it should only take three days." ā
"Oh......" Su Mian responded lightly, and Yueguang suddenly saw that a few people were preparing the tent for Gu Zhixing to sleep in tonight.
Suddenly thinking of what happened last night, and before she had time to think about it, she hurriedly shouted loudly at the people over there: "Separate me from Gu Zhixing's tent, remember to prepare another one!" ā
At this voice, not only the people who were working stopped moving, but even the people around them also looked over.
Su Mian felt that she realized what she had just said.
Wipe! Am I stupid?
How did you just say it without going through your brain!
With such a shout, wouldn't everyone know that Gu Zhixing and I lived together last night?
Oh, my God!
Gu Zhixing was also stunned for a moment, and forcibly endured the smile that came to his lips, if he really laughed, wouldn't Ah Mian be even more faceless?
"IāI'm going to feed Gale!" Sensing that the people around him were looking at his side, Su Mian stomped his foot violently and ran in the direction of the horses without looking back.
Signing off on what happened just now, Lu Zhe couldn't help but shake his head in his heart.
Although these two people have not reconciled yet, what do you think...... Seems to be coming soon?
ā¦ā¦
The border between the two countries.
A pair of black-pressed men and horses walked in a neat procession, shaking the earth slightly.
At the front of the queue was a purple soft sedan chair.
"You just said, how many people did Gu Zhixing bring?" A woman's voice came from the soft sedan chair, and just listening to the delicate voice, you knew that the person sitting inside must be a good-looking beauty.
A man in armor knelt respectfully outside the soft sedan chair, and hurriedly replied when he heard this: "Eldest princess, Gu Zhixing sent troops with 500,000 horses this time. ā
"Half a million?" The woman's voice was a little disdainful, and then she seemed to think of something, and asked, "Su Mian is following Gu Zhixing?" ā
"Yes, the third princess is also there." The man replied.
The woman in the sedan did not speak again, was silent for a moment, and then stretched out a hand, which also seemed to have a letter in it.
She said nonchalantly, "Go ahead, send me this letter to the old man in Qingteng, and let him act according to the plan above." ā
