In the eighth year of Tianbao, on the evening of the sixth day of the fourth month, the magnificent sunset was reflected on the vast and boundless Yili River (now the Ili River), which inlaid a deep and beautiful golden edge for the charming river grassland.

On the north bank of Yili Water and south of Gongyue City, the season is like summer and spring, and the climate is neither hot nor cold, which is the most pleasant time of the year.

On the vast grassland, the fragrant grass, wild flowers, green leaves, and picturesque scenery on the land are intertwined with the sunset in the west, which is particularly quiet and charming.

Riding horses and humming songs, the Qarluq herdsmen happily drove their horses, cattle and sheep from the banks of the Yili River to their own tents with smoke curling from the waterfront.

Occasionally, three or two wild deer would come to the river to drink. They licked the sweet water with their heads down, and at the same time stared vigilantly at their big cute black eyes, paying attention to the wind and grass around them.

A dragonfly caught by the river, probably tired of flying, unceremoniously landed on the big horns of a male deer and rested for a while.

The stag also seemed to notice the uninvited guest on its head, it shook its head slightly, and the dragonfly flapped its transparent wings, circled in the air for half a circle, and turned away.

After driving away the mischievous tricksters on his head, the male deer craned his neck and chirped, and the sound of the deer chirping, like a bird flying high with wings, pierced through the dim and faint twilight, flew into the Tang army camp on the north bank of Yilishui.

After hearing the distant and muffled sound of deer, Wang Fei stretched his waist and walked out of Du Huan's military tent.

After assisting Du Huan in processing the paperwork for half a day, Wang Fei, who was boiling up his body every day, couldn't help but feel a little tired. The sound of deer chirping in the distance made his eyes light up, and he couldn't help but want to go out for a walk.

"Xiao Langjun, the way of civil and martial arts is relaxed. At the moment, the scenery is very good, and you are tired for a long time, you might as well take a stroll outside the tent for a while to change your mood. Before Wang Fei could figure out how to speak, the empathetic Du Huan offered to let him go out of the tent and rest for a while.

Stepping out of the military tent, but seeing the big camp in the twilight, the tents are dotted, the watchtowers are forested, and the walls are forested. The sword and shield soldiers in charge of patrolling the battalion, led by the fire commander, solemnly walked through the passage between the tents. There is also Yu Hou, who is responsible for picketing military discipline, putting on a straight face, and inspecting and inspecting all parts of the camp. The entire Tang army camp, in the vast twilight, is like a slaughtering giant beast, standing on the bank of Yili without anger.

Wang Fei stood in front of Du Huan's military tent, looking at the neat and majestic military camp and the faintly visible Gongyue City in the distance, enjoying the intoxicating scenery of the grassland in the river when the sun sets, breathing in the fresh air mixed with the fragrance of flowers, grass and water vapor, and feeling relaxed and happy.

He wanted to do a few forms of tai chi to relieve the tiredness of his brain. But before he could make two moves, Wang Fei's eyes unconsciously looked at a heavily guarded tent in the middle of the camp.

In this inconspicuous-looking tent, there lives the great princess Anice, who travels with the army. In order to ensure the safety of Anicee and avoid attracting attention, Wang Zhengjian specially explained that he should not arrange too ornate tents, as long as they were enough for the county lord of Huaiyuan. The defense should be loose on the outside and tight on the inside, so that it is neither dazzling nor omissional.

However, Wang Zhengjian also fully took into account Anice's special identity, and the various utensils in the tent were relatively delicate and fine, and the layout was also particularly considerate and thoughtful. Anice's personal maids, Mivi and Milan, and Luo Puli, who is in charge of keeping her safe, all live in this tent.

However, neither Anice nor Luo Puli was the reason why Wang Fei was haunted by this tent. The reason why his eyes were always glued to this place was because there was another person in the tent that he could not forget.

In early March, after going to the banks of the Jinman River in Santing Prefecture, Wang Fei keenly noticed that Ashina Xiaoyun's attitude towards him seemed to have changed a little subtly.

If she was deliberately alienated before, after the outing, Ashina Xiaoyun was playing with Wang Fei, and at the same time, she also increased her interaction with Wang Fei generously and naturally, and no longer cared about Ashina Wenxia's cold gaze......

Before the army set out, Ashina Xiaoyun also saw the needles and invited the friends to go to the polo field outside the west gate of Tingzhou City to play polo again.

Except for Wang Jue, who unexpectedly declined the invitation, all the friends who experienced the turmoil on the polo field that day were present.

The competition went smoothly and there were no more surprises or complications. The game was also played heartily, and the friends were very happy. Ashina Xiaoyun's goal count was the highest in the game, and she shouted happily and excitedly. Wang Fei and Gao Xiangui were both very active, but only Ashina Wenxia was always a little absent-minded.

After the game, when everyone gathered around for a picnic and rest, Ashina Xiaoyun unexpectedly announced that she was about to go west with the army!

Although a month has passed, Wang Fei still clearly remembers that when he heard the news, he was so surprised that his heart was about to break free from the shackles of his chest.

Ashina Xiaoyun even has to go out with the army?! In the next few months, you can see that delicate face like a water lotus?! The happiness that fell from the sky made Wang Fei almost suspect that he was dreaming.

Wang Fei, who knew how to be more restrained and restrained than before, only after trying his best to suppress the ecstasy in his heart did he notice Gao Xiangui's full chagrin and Ashina Wenxia's cold gloom.

"Sister Wenxia has long known that Xiaoyun is going west with the army, right? That's why you're so listless when you're playing, right? Wang Fei speculated in his heart, feeling a little unbearable.

He knew how much Ashina Wenxia cared about getting the opportunity to follow Ruyi Ju Xituo. When he was about to set off, he suddenly learned that his sister, who had always been dazzling, was also going west, and he must have been extremely disappointed.

Wang Fei wanted to step forward to appease Ashina Wenxia, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know where to start.

Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard Gao Xiangui ask eagerly, "Sister Xiaoyun, why are you able to go west with the army?" Brother Fei has the will of a saint, and Sister Wenxia is following the master to protect Ruyiju, what name do you use? ”

Hearing Gao Xiangui's question, Wang Fei realized that he was so busy suppressing ecstasy and pitying Ashina Wenxia that he had ignored such an important issue.

"The personal rings of the county lord of Huaiyuan are all Sogdians, and my father is not very relieved, so he gave the king of Ming the protection and allowed me to go west with me to accompany the county lord." Ashina Xiaoyun understated.

When Wang Fei was thinking about what Ashina Yang meant by "not very assured", he heard Ashina Wenxia say coldly: "You don't understand the big food language......"

Before the Shangsi Festival, Ashina Xiaoyun chose to avoid and retreat from his sister's provocation. But at this time, when she heard her sister's bad words, she shot back lightly: "Sister, you can learn swordsmanship, and I can also learn the language of the big food." Although I don't have the talent of Izuki, I will work harder, and I ask my sister not to worry. ”

The two sisters' verbal arguments made the atmosphere cold. When Wang Fei was anxious about how to save the scene, Gao Xiangui, who was still immersed in chagrin, didn't listen to the conversation between the two sisters at all, and said to himself depressedly: "Alas, my father actually stayed in Tingzhou this time, otherwise I would have to think of a way to go to the Zhaowu Nine Kingdoms in the river to have a look!" ”

Everyone knows where Gao Xiangui's heart is, but no one says it. It was Fang Cai's embarrassing situation, but it was unintentionally resolved by Gao Xiangui's self-talk.

After the surprise, Wang Fei also secretly wondered in his heart, not understanding why Ashina Yang would agree to let his two daughters go with the army.

You must know that the western expedition to Shiguo is not a relaxed outing like going to the banks of the Jinman River, but the fatigue of going to the army in Guanshan and the fierce battle of wearing gold armor in a hundred battles in the yellow sand, and it is possible to face death and life at any time. Even if you stay in the rear far from the front line, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents. Isn't Wang Fei's encounter with being kidnapped by the Great Cannibal last year the best example?

Although he was suspicious and reborn in his heart, Wang Fei was still very happy to be able to travel west with Ashina Xiaoyun.

Therefore, after the army left Tingzhou City, Wang Fei would take Ayi Tenggena to visit Ashina Xiaoyun and Tongluo Puli at the little princess Ainisai every once in a while.

After the Beiting army set out, Anice's mood was very excited. And the long-distance march is extraordinarily long and boring, so she is also looking forward to Wang Fei's visit, and she will happily chat with Wang Fei for a long time every time.

After living in Tingzhou for a while, Anice's Chinese dialect improved, but when she chatted with Wang Fei, she still couldn't do without the Mi sisters or Ayitengna as the central translator.

Wang Fei is "Xiang Zhuang dancing the sword, intended for Pei Gong", but every time he has to accompany Anicee to chat for a long time about the internal affairs of the Great Food Country and the geography of the surrounding areas of the Mediterranean.

Through communication, Wang Fei constantly corroborates the memories of his past life and the information provided by Anice. Anice, on the other hand, was amazed by Wang Fei's knowledge, and was more willing to have a long talk with him.

After sending Anicei away, Wang Fei was able to have a little time to ride around the barracks with Ashina Xiaoyun to relax.

Wang Fei actually can't remember what the two talked about, he just felt that when he was riding a horse with Ashina, time seemed to return to the happy moment when he and Xiaoyu held hands and walked in the snow on the winter campus to find plum blossoms......

Behind the soldiers and horses in the north courtyard, several caravans such as Ruyiju followed each other, and Su Sanniang and Ashina Wenxia were responsible for leading more than a hundred warriors to protect the safety of the caravan.

However, the caravan followed the Tang army brigade, and since leaving Tingzhou, there have never been any unsightly horse bandits or small tribes who dare to attack the caravan.

Therefore, along the way, Ashina Wenxia still has more leisure, she still insists on going to the barracks every morning to find Wang Fei to practice together, it seems that the existence of her sister has not affected her mood and pursuit at all.

Ashina Wenxia was also very busy, Su Sanniang not only taught her swordsmanship every day, but also began to teach her the art of disguise and disguise, and tried to send her to listen to information.

After the sparring session, Ashina Wenxia would talk to Wang Fei about some interesting things she experienced when she was searching for information. Wang Fei, who felt guilty, would listen to her seriously every time.
