Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Last Barrier to Protect the Capital
Moreover, there was no one in the carriage, so it didn't matter how bumpy it was, so the overall speed increased a lot.
On the sixteenth day after leaving Tongyuan City, they arrived at a city, and just looking at the city gate, it was very majestic.
Ning Yao rode on the big horse, looked up at the high city wall, and had to admire the wisdom of the ancients in her heart.
In the past, it was usually Duan Yunqian who spoke to Ning Yao first, and Xiao Junyi was silent on the side.
But after more than ten days of getting along day and night, Ning Yao likes to follow Xiao Junyi, and Xiao Junyi is also used to seeing things she is interested in, so he explained one or two out loud: "Here, it is the last barrier to protect the capital, inside is Jizhou City, out of Jizhou, across the Min River, it is the boundary of Xijing." ”
Ning Yao nodded: "No wonder, the city wall here looks very imposing at first glance." ”
Qingfeng said proudly: "Miss Ning Yao, then you haven't seen the city wall of our Fenglin Pass, it is stronger than here, a few of us, and our son-in-law, they all carried the stone and repaired the city wall by themselves." ”
Ning Yao smiled and said, "If I have the opportunity in the future, I must go to Fenglin Pass with you to have a look." ”
Ye Ming's mouth was fast: "After the next year, won't Xiao Gongzi still have to follow the general to the border?" Miss Ning Yao may be able to go along. ”
Along the way, everyone likes to get along with Ning Yao, she is not as delicate and pretentious as a noble girl in the capital, nor is she like a small family of a civilian woman, she has changed the definition of a weak woman in everyone's mind, and they all think that if Ning Yao is a man, she will be able to become a good brother with them.
Speaking of next year, after talking about it, Ning Yao remembered the purpose of her coming to Xijing, I really don't know, how to get along with them after arriving in Xijing?
Putting aside the unknown future, Ning Yao nodded to Ye Ming: "This can be had!" ”
Then he asked: "In other words, if the foreign thieves hit here, Xijing will be in danger?" ”
Duan Yunqian was speechless and held his forehead: "Ning Yao, standing next to you is the most wise and martial major general in our Nanjing, you said in front of him that foreign thieves hit the outer edge of the capital, is this really good?" ”
Ning Yao also felt that she had changed the topic, as if she had said the wrong thing: "Hehe, I'm just making an analogy!" Jun Yi won't mind, huh? ”
The more they get along, the more casual they are, and Ning Yao's names for Xiao Junyi and Duan Yunqian have been removed.
Xiao Junyi still had that cold expression, looked ahead, and said confidently: "There won't be that day!" ”
At this moment, he never thought that one day, he would personally lead his troops to break through the last barrier of Xijing.
Duan Yunqian agreed: "Yes, as long as the Xiao family army is here, there will be no day, let's go to the city, in another four or five days, we will be able to get home, Ning Yao, when the time comes, I invite you to go to the best restaurant in the capital and eat the most expensive dishes!" ”
Along the way, when she was in the wild, Ning Yao was eating in Zhangluo, so Duan Yunqian felt that when she arrived in Xijing, she should also treat her to delicious food as a landlord.
"You don't have to wait until you return to Xijing, this Jizhou city gate, there are so many people coming in and out, it must be a prosperous big city, here, you can invite me to eat delicious food first!"
was about to arrive at his own chassis, Duan Yunqian was also in a good mood, and laughed: "Okay! Then after we enter the city, we will find an inn to stay, and take you around this Jizhou city, let's go, drive! ”
