Chapter Twenty-Seven: Fine Snow

Hou Cong raised his eyes and saw the white clothes riding next to Mochang's carriage looking back at him.

The two looked at each other, Hou Cong's legs clamped the horse, and Murong Xing followed, and they came to Baiyi together.

"Your Highness." The white clothes called Mo Chang through the window. Ling Xiao lifted the curtain. Murong Xing said the matter of Xixue City again, "Do we remember, when we were fighting in Xixue City, there was a school in the city to study and learn skills for poor children, and the land and house were originally donated by rich and noble families, with dozens of acres. It's just that there are fewer and fewer children, and many places are empty. The locals respect the sages and do not bother. Because the inn booked for His Highness was not far from there, his subordinates took people to investigate, and found a house in a small courtyard that had been deserted for a long time, and there were more than a dozen corpses that had been dead for a long time. ”

Mo Chang looked at Hou Cong, "Li Andu was brought to Datong by Master Jian, what was he doing?" ”

Changkong interjected beside him, "If you can appear at the banquet attended by the old scholars of the township, then it is likely to be Mr. Teaching." ”

Hou Cong found everything very interesting, "Then he is the one in the know, so there is no need to tell him." ”

Everyone knew what he meant. Then the laughter and laughter dispersed, and everyone was busy with their own things. Hou Cong beat the horse and walked with the white clothes, and went to snatch the reins in the hands of others with one hand.

"What do you have to do?"

Because he couldn't get it, he "had to" cover other people's hands together, and he had the right to hold the horses for others, but fortunately, the horse in white was obedient, rubbed his face with Hou Cong's horse, and walked side by side with his kiss and greasy, and was really abducted out of the team.

Hou Cong just giggled, and Bai Yi felt more and more weird about him, so he reached into his sleeve with his backhand and found a handkerchief soaked in potion for him.

Hou Cong couldn't help but itch, so he said it, in fact, it was also boring, "The big river in the fine snow city crosses, let's go to the shore and take a look." ”

Bai Yi turned his head and shouted to the team, "Your Highness, the big river in the fine snow city has crossed, let's go to the shore and take a look!" ”

Mo Chang personally lifted the curtain this time and smiled extraordinarily brightly, "Listen to you!" ”

Hou Cong looked at the back of the white cloth, and left him with the horse ass in the white cloth, thinking about torturing and torturing Yuan and a few other people - hmph, the white clothes are so simple, it must be these bastards who gave her the idea to let her play with herself!

The officials of the city received the official document and went out of the city gate to greet the team of Hou Cong and others. The team does not live in the official post and does not go to the banquet, so as not to be carefully made by Chengguo in advance to know where to settle down and make arrangements. Mo Chang ordered Wei Yao to stop the carriage, come down to comfort the local officials, greet them a few words, and walk into the city gate with them.

This neighborhood is the place where the Chengguo army attacked all the way north from Dajiang, and it is also the place where he was defeated by Hou Cong and captured by the white-clothed clothes. Mo Chang asked about the school, and the official really liked this kind and handsome prince, so he walked for several miles and talked for a while.

"We are in Snow City, and the people are simple. The people of the country will come to do business late, and natural safety and peace are the first priority. It's not a micro-minister bragging, our school is also the most genuine in the world. The people who live in the local area, regardless of how many generations they have lived in, respect the scholars and love the children, so the number of children attending the school is sometimes high and sometimes small, but they all take it seriously. The official seemed to be eager to send a caravan to invest money here to do business after Mo Chang returned to China and took the throne, and boasted vigorously, "Your Highness, and General Xiaohou, the last time you came, you were fighting a war, and you didn't enjoy the local scenery well." Our fine snow city, it's not just a big river crossing, an underground cave with food and clothing, Huayue Longyin, that's everything, you must see it, you must stay for a few more days. ”

"Oh? Do you still have dragons here? Mo Chang heard those words and glanced at Hou Cong.

The local official was more serious, as if he was being suspected, but he was very close to the people, busy waving to the familiar people on the side of the road, and then explained, "Now we don't want to report auspiciousness, but we have dragons here, otherwise, how can it still freeze and snow in this season?" ”

Hou Cong and his entourage have really only heard of this place freezing and snowing at this time, but they don't know what it has to do with the existence of the "dragon". The official talked for a long time, but he didn't mention a single piece of evidence, Hou Cong looked at Li Andu, who was dozens of feet behind, and lowered his head slightly, thinking about something.

The officials said goodbye and went back, and Hou Cong and his entourage also settled down in the inn that Murong Xing had set. The duty table of the errand was lined up, who lived with whom and lived close to it was also arranged, the luggage and weapons were packed up lively, Hou Cong had his hands behind his back, and Dugu was accompanying him to watch all this.

"Where's the white clothes?" He asked.

Dugu Zheng didn't have to think about it, "The first value is hers, and at this moment she is arranging Her Highness." ”

"What about Yuanyou?"

"Your Highness is also arranged."

Hou Cong squinted at Dugu Zheng, "Did you listen to me in Baiyi?" ”

"It's too much, which one do you ask?" Dugu is smiling.

"So, what did you all say about me?"

Dugu Zheng's eyes rolled, "I said less, and Yuan said more." ”

"Count yourself smart, your ban is lifted, and you can buy bright clothes to wear!"

"Master Xie!" Dugu was betraying Yuan You, and there was no uneasiness in his heart. Anyway, Hou Cong and Bai Yi are getting better, and they don't need any military advisors.

Hou Cong watched the people below finish their work, and then deliberately went to find Fluorescent and checked the big kite that he entrusted her to guard closely. The female soldiers all smiled and promised, "We will definitely let Miss Yuwen fly a kite!" "We're all ten times more reliable than Yuan, absolutely no problem!" Hou Congyi was happy and rewarded each of them with a satin coin.

When he arrived at Mo Chang's room, he found that Bai Yi was not there. "Where did she go?"

It was Ling Xiao who accompanied Mo Chang to play chess, "General Xiaohou asked about Baiyi?" She and her brother went shopping on the street. ”

"This is out? Is it not worth it? What to buy? What kind of clothes are you wearing, can't you freeze? How much money did you bring? Horseback riding? ”

This series of questions makes Ling Xiao answer.

Cuizhu looked at the window, and turned around at this time, "General Xiaohou, don't worry, I'm back." ”

Hou Cong flew over in an arrow step, just in time to see the little brother and sister coming back in the afterglow of the sunset, talking and laughing, looking up to see him, and waving at him. The two of them rode horses, dressed in white and wearing the moon-white cloak given by Mo Chang, and they had to admit that the things Mo Chang chose were very good-looking.

There was something on his back behind Changkong - a white flower cloth bag on a blue background, a long place, looking at the shape, looking at the hanging tassels - why, carrying a piano on his back? Going to the street to buy a piano?

"Cut! The two of them know what elegance is. ”

Hou Cong learned the piano when he was a child, but he couldn't play it well. I never remember that Bai Yi talked about the qin music and qin music, could it be that he wanted to curry favor with Mo Chang with this elegance? You said you like yourself? Could it be that this is the reason why I have been cold to myself recently? Could it be that after you can't get your own body, you feel vulgar? - Vulgar? Not really, although it is indeed inferior to Mo Chang's literary style.

And, the dead monkey like Changkong, the demons dance wildly, it's almost the same, playing the piano?

Thinking wildly, Cuizhu raised his hands in the light of the sun, "Your Highness, come and see, it's snowing." ”

There were no clouds in the sky, the trees were lush and green, the pedestrians on the street were not strange, and in the red light, there were tiny snowflakes.

"Sure enough, it's Snow City!" Mo Chang and Ling Xiao also came to watch, and the tiny particles of snow fell flutteringly, landing on the faces of the long blank clothes raised downstairs.

Hou Cong said in a low voice, "Cuizhu is idle? Go and say something, let Hui Niang and the inn cook. After a while, let's leave a few people to guard, and let's go and see the big river. ”

The ingredients for dinner were sent by local officials, and after checking that there was nothing wrong, they quickly arranged for dumplings with sour soup, fish and meat in sour soup, meatballs in sour soup, and noodles in sour soup. Hou Cong was a little unaccustomed to eating at first glance, so he asked Qingsong to ask Bai Yi if he ate well, and if he didn't like it, he would open a small stove for her. Qingsong came back and said, "Bai Yi and His Royal Highness have drunk the wine, and I have eaten most of the sour soup balls." ”

"Humph! Just let this damn girl go crazy! I'm also worried about it for nothing! ”

The dusk in the Snow City is particularly long, and it is already 2 o'clock after everyone has finished eating, and the glow is still shining, and the sunset is like a melted gold nugget, still sinking in the west, but it has not been able to sink completely. The topography is also quite special, half of the city is undulating hills and mountains, and even the streets in it are zigzag up and down; To the south, the other half of the city entered the Pingchuan River, where the war was fought in the nearby town of Dumb Springs. The troops on both sides were also on the plains.

Because of the snow, the air was a little cold. And they all put on their clothes. The slight snow particles were still floating, everyone watched quietly, Murong Xing took the lead and walked to the big river, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded on the stone road. The city was filled with smoke, twilight, and snowflakes were flying, all wrapped in a large patch of pink and orange.

Faced with this scene, naturally no one was talking. Everything is quiet.

Li Andu explained to Jia Fang, and it can be regarded as an explanation to everyone, "Because the terrain here is undulating and complex, and there are caves and glaciers underground, there are often no clouds and snow." The snow particles were like small mirrors, refracting and refracting the glow and the setting sun, leaving a few quarters of an hour longer than the others. ”

So that's the case, the others nodded on the horse, and Changkong also said, "Captain Li is worthy of being a scholar, and he understands a lot." ”

Hou Cong came to Bai Yi's side again, "What are you buying the piano for?" Do you want to be a reader? ”

"It's not."

"Do you want to curry favor with Mo Chang?"

"It's not."

"Don't let me ask a question, you can say a word."

"Oh, for you."
