Volume 1 The hustle and bustle of Fanwai 1 Facing each other north and south (Luoyuan Jing× Mengbi)

There was a continuous sound of Jin Ge hitting each other, and the nose was filled with a disgusting and heavy smell of blood.

Almost using the last bit of strength in her body, she swung the long sword in her hand, which was already a little curled, and stabbed it fiercely into the body of the person in front of her.

The moment the sword entered the flesh, blood gushed out, splattering on her face, the only temperature she could feel now.

She actually had some nostalgia for such a temperature.

Because only in this way can she truly feel that she is alive.

But this body has reached its limits...... She looked at the Dongyi people in front of her who were constantly approaching her with a knife, her eyes began to darken, her consciousness began to blur, and even the pain caused by countless knife wounds on her body began to gradually dissipate.

The sword in his hand still maintained the state of piercing into the body, but it seemed to have a thousand catties and could not be pulled out again.

So this is the battlefield...... Is this the end of it? My whole life.

Meng Bi clearly felt that his consciousness was gradually leaving his body, and the voice in his heart kept telling him: "It's over, it's all over, let's die like this-"

She was so exhausted that she didn't even have the strength to keep her eyes open.

In a trance, she seemed to have fallen into a dream, and everything from the past poured into her mind like a marquee.

Legend has it that before a person dies, he will see the past of this life in that brief moment.

Sure enough, am I going to die? Meng Bi thought to herself.

As the daughter of the Meng family, she can die on the battlefield, and she has no regrets.

She watched her own birth in her dreams—her father was anxious to circle outside the house, and her mother's cries of pain kept coming from within. When the clear child's cry sounded, the father wanted to rush in, but he was frightened by the words of the midwife, and he didn't know whether to be happy or worried: "It's a little young master—no, no...... Oh my God, it's twins! Twins! Madame has a child in her belly! "I am glad that the child was born, and I am worried that the lady will suffer more. Her birth caught her family off guard.

The scene shifted to her gift of catching Zhou - she didn't even look at her daughter's rouge hairpin ring, but she had to grab the handsome seal with her brother, and she didn't giggle until her brother sensibly let go of his hand.

Then came the fifth birthday of her and her brother - they were enlightened, and the elder brother had to go to school every day to learn martial arts with his father, while she could only practice as a female worker with her mother in the courtyard of the back house. She was very angry, every time she secretly changed her brother's clothes, and ran to the school field to mix in the crowd to practice martial arts with them, but she didn't know that every time she was recognized by her father and brother, but they have been conniving and acquiescing...... It wasn't until she was twelve years old that few people in the family were her opponents, and she became the only woman in the family who could practice martial arts with the men, and she no longer had to wear her brother's clothes.

Then it was on the eve of her father's command to go to the city, and no matter how much she pleaded with her father and coquetted her mother and brother, they would not allow her to go into battle with the army. The reason, of course, is unanimous, the battlefield is the line of life and death, it is too dangerous for one of her daughters' family, and she has no experience at all. But wasn't my mother also a female general in the past? Isn't the Third Highness, who is also inexperienced, also with the army? With the fiery unwillingness in her heart, she bought off a soldier, and then disguised herself as a man to follow the army to the city of Zaoyi instead of him.

But......

After seeing the endless sea of corpses and blood, Meng Bi only felt disgusting from the river and the sea, and there was an inexplicable fire burning in his chest.

With a father who has experienced a hundred battles, and a third highness who is brave but brave when he first enters the battlefield, Tianqi has won many battles, and the Dongyi people have been defeated and retreated, but the people around him who get along day and night have decreased one by one.

Every time she came back from the battlefield to repair, when she saw the Dongyi army again, she only had one thought in her heart - kill them, kill them all.

Originally, she still thought that Tianqi and Dongyi obviously had no deep hatred, Dongyi came to loot materials for a living, and Tianqi had to send troops to expel in order to defend the land and the people...... However, when she went to the battlefield and saw her compatriots die tragically under the sword, she just wanted the other party to pay for her blood debts.

Perhaps this is the battlefield - corrosive, emotionally numb, people who want to stab their swords into each other's bodies, longing for the gushing blood to stain their armor and clothes.

Everyone in the Meng family is a natural warrior...... Meng Bi silently thought in his heart, and regretted his willfulness in his life.

If he hadn't insisted on blending into the army, he wouldn't have exposed his daughter's body here, and his father wouldn't have scruples to protect himself, so he wouldn't have ......

I won't fall here.

Anyway, if my father goes because of himself, I will accompany him.

As soon as Meng Bi's eyes were dark and his body was weak, he completely fell down and fell into the boundless darkness.

But she seems to have another dream.

Tianqi won a great victory, but his father and tens of thousands of soldiers remained on the battlefield forever.

When His Royal Highness returned to the court with her class, the faces of the people along the road were filled with the joy of victory, but more regret for the sacrificed soldiers.

When they entered the palace, they had not yet returned to His Majesty, but they heard the news that His Majesty was seriously ill and dying.

Immediately after a few days of rumors, His Majesty passed away, and Princess Liyao, who had a marriage contract with her brother, took out His Majesty's edict, but said that His Majesty passed the throne to His Royal Highness, who he usually did not like to see the most and was also the least favorite of the Third Highness.

His Royal Highness must have been angry and sad. When Meng Bi heard the news, he only had this thought in his heart.

But she never expected that His Royal Highness would be ready to use the military power he had not yet handed over to rebel, and even he came to visit his brother in person, wanting to get his brother's support.

"The Meng family has only been loyal to the emperor's order for generations, and His Royal Highness is the emperor's order." The Third Highness left after being rejected by her brother, and her brother gently patted her on the shoulder and sighed, his eyes full of expressions that she still couldn't understand and couldn't understand.

But she selfishly thought that a high-spirited person like His Royal Highness should be the emperor's order...... My brother likes Princess Liyao, so he must be on the side of Princess Liyao and His Royal Highness. It must be so. She is just an ordinary young lady of the family, and she has not used the authority of the family power, she can only go to the Moon Tower to ask for fake death medicine, praying that she can save the Third Highness.

But no one gave her this chance.

By the time she heard the news of his exile to the north, they had been on their way for a long time—her brother had deliberately kept her from going out or the servants of the palace from mentioning it.

She's going to find him. Let's go to Kitahara Castle.

The road from Qiushui City to Kitahara City was extremely long, even if she carried enough entanglements and lived in the best inn rooms in the area along the way, the road was far longer than she imagined, and it was terrifyingly lonely to walk alone.

But she was not afraid, she went all the way north, and the cities she passed by became more and more desolate, and the weather became colder and colder, and she did not know where he had arrived, whether he was well fed and warmly clothed.

She didn't know why she desperately wanted to go north to meet him, she just thought...... You must see him, or she will regret it for the rest of her life.

With this in mind, she finally stepped into Tianqi's northern border city, Beiyuan City.

At that time, she had just changed into a newly purchased winter coat, which was far less elaborate than what she often wore in Autumn Water City, but it was better to keep warm and comfortable.

There are not many people in the city, but they are all talking about the newly appointed lord of Luocheng - gentle and polite, lenient and stern, handsome and extraordinary, really worthy of the royal family, and it is said that he has not yet married a wife, and he has not even taken a concubine.

They all praise him...... Meng Bi listened silently, but always felt that this was not him.

She had seen him galloping on the battlefield in Zaoyi City, and she had seen him strategizing to take the head of the enemy general from the army—that was his real appearance, the appearance of Luo Yuanjing.

She put down the tea money and went straight to the city lord's mansion.

But the Meng family token she showed to the guard was returned, and the guard said, "Miss Meng, please go back, the city lord said he didn't want to see you." ”

"Why doesn't he want to see me?"

"This ...... The city lord didn't say why, but just said that he asked Miss Meng to go back as soon as possible, so that the family would not worry about you. ”

"Then I'll wait for him here, he won't see me for a day, and I'll be in this Beiyuan City for a day."

She turned around and went to the city inn, where she stayed for five months—from the bitter winter to the spring, and every day she went to the city lord's mansion to see him.

But there is no spring in Kitahara Castle, let alone flowers...... Fortunately, he was finally willing to meet her.

She followed the guards into the city lord's mansion, where she had been here many times but had been turned away, only to feel that the wind here was a little colder than the city tower.

Luo Yuanjing still looks like that Luo Yuanjing, the man who likes to wear white clothes after taking off his armor and robes, but between his eyebrows, he no longer has the arrogance of the young man he used to have, and the whole person is still smiling gently, smiling very strangely.

"You...... Is it the Third Highness? She tentatively spoke, still reluctant to face the reality.

"Don't you recognize?" Luo Yuanjing smiled faintly, and his hand, which was accustomed to using swords, was holding a cup of hot tea at this time.

If it weren't for the long, striking scar on the back of his left hand, she would have almost thought she had mistaken someone.

She had been chatting with him for a long time, but it was all about her in Beiyuan City in the past few months.

He and His Second Highness governed the city of Beiyuan very well, and were deeply loved by the people in the city. Next month is his eighteenth birthday, and many sons of Tianqi's families have their own children at his age, but he is still alone.

Isn't the Third Highness planning to start a family yet?

She almost asked about his current situation, but she never had the courage to ask this sentence, for fear that Luo Yuanjing would smile and pull out a woman to introduce to you: "This is my wife who has not passed through the door." She didn't know what kind of feelings she had for him, maybe she just liked it. It may not be like a father or mother, but at least ...... It's more than my brother's love for Princess Liyao, after all, my brother is only secretly silently working for the princess, but he is going north thousands of miles for him.

Fortunately, he didn't, he just looked at her and said slowly: "You should go back, this place doesn't belong to you...... Don't come back again. ”

"Why?"

"Luoyuan Jing belongs to Beiyuan City, and Mengbi is not."

He belonged to Kitahara Castle, and she wasn't.

She didn't know how she left the City Lord's Mansion, only remembered the last words she said to him: "I'll leave tomorrow." ”

But on the second day, she waited at the gate of the city from the sunrise to the west, and she did not wait for him to come to say goodbye, but the second highness came and gave herself a lot of things.

It turned out to be wishful thinking on his own. She thought to herself, only to feel the pain of piercing her heart, more painful than when the white knife enters and the red knife comes out on the battlefield.

She smiled, and after a few words of farewell to the Second Highness, she spurred her horse away, and never looked back with a ruthless heart—so she never saw the white figure standing on the tower of the city for a long time.

"General Meng......"

Someone forced the warm liquid into her throat, and the consciousness of her limbs gradually returned, trying to tear her out of the dream.

She slowly opened her eyes, and there was a familiar top of the camp in front of her.

"I ......" Meng Bi said with difficulty in her hoarse voice, "I am ......"

"You've been asleep for more than half a month, but fortunately you're awake—" The medic on the side was just a little girl of fifteen or sixteen, twisting a veil full of blood, and seemed to have some palpitations, "I feel that the blood in your body was about to run dry at that time, if it weren't for some blue blood flowers, you would have died." ”

It is an excellent hemostatic herb, but it only grows in the perennial cold Kitahara Castle.

Kitahara Castle.

"Ah...... That's nice. She couldn't help laughing, but she touched the wound, and she gasped in pain.

"General!" The medic took the gauze and wrapped her a few more times in a hurry, "Don't move, although the blue blood flower sent by Beiyuan City a few days ago has arrived again, but you can't help but spend so much attention to your body!" ”

"It was sent by Kitahara Castle? Isn't it Autumn Water City? She was startled in her heart, and then a little joy that was almost irrepressible welled up.

"Of course not—this flower only grows in Kitahara City, where can there be so many in Qiushui City? This Beiyuan City is so far away from our Nanchuan City, but we have to send this blue blood flower every month, it's really good......" The medical soldier took out one, mashed it and put it on her, and didn't forget to break the thoughts, "The general's temperament leaves a hole on his body from time to time, and the bleeding does not stop, but it makes people annoyed to death." ”

"Your temperament, from time to time, you leave a hole on your body, and the bleeding does not stop, which can be annoying to death."

The words of the person next to him coincided with the words of the person in his heart.

Meng Wei was stunned, and suddenly laughed, laughing and laughing and crying, but it scared the medic a lot.

She suddenly understood something.

Mengbi belongs to Nanchuan City, and Luoyuan Jing belongs to Beiyuan City.

The north and the south look at each other, and the two are happy.
