Chapter 29: The Little White Flower (29)

Return to the border city.

At this time, the solemn atmosphere was far from being comparable to what it had been before, with heavy snow all over the ground, and a few scattered passers-by walking on the street, all of whom were in a hurry, occasionally talking, but also expressing their sorrow about the current war.

And to the coldest of the seasons.

Beiran's attack became more and more ferocious, and because of the heavy snow blocking the road, even if there was the eldest princess in the previous dynasty, the cycle of grain and grass arrival was still longer and longer.

The only good news is.

There is not much grain and grass left in Beiran.

But blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, Tulu has the heart of breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat, either to capture the border city in one fell swoop and go to people to keep food, and then the food will naturally be sufficient, otherwise it will not be able to be attacked for a long time, and the people of Beiran will starve to death.

Nobody wants to die.

Therefore, the morale did not need to be boosted, and every Beiran soldier was red-eyed and attacked with the determination to die.

The soldiers on the front line are becoming more and more struggling, countless people are dying every day, holding and collapsing are only between the first line, and this torture is day after day.

The contest between the two sides is also becoming more and more turbulent.

this day.

Yin Cai, Si Jing and the Wang family brothers and sisters came out of the tent, due to the cold weather, Wang Shan's dark skin also showed a little ruddy, and grinned: "Great, that Beiran leader even killed and ate his two concubines, which means that they have no food and can't last long." ”

He was elated.

But he didn't get a response, and after a while, Wang Yue thought about it and said: "Brother, there is not much food left in our military camp, haven't you seen that General Zhou has changed from eating rice to drinking rice soup?" ”

Because the proprietress opened an inn.

The four of them are indispensable for eating and drinking, but the food they hoard can afford the four of them, and they have recently closed their doors and closed their businesses.

Wang Shan was quite surprised, his smile faded, he rubbed his hands, and said with some anxiety: "No, the grain and grass will be sent after all, no matter what, it has not yet reached the point of eating people." ”

After speaking.

He laughed dryly.

Si Jing looked in the direction of the granary, and said in a heavy tone: "Beiran has not yet reached the point of exhaustion, Tulu killed the concubine, mainly to boost morale, but the problem is that the grain and grass that the imperial court should have sent ten days ago have not yet arrived." ”

Spent five years in the border city.

She knows very well that many soldiers who go to the battlefield don't really understand the righteousness of the family and country, but more just to eat and live.

For a bite to eat, they can die on the battlefield.

But in the same way, if they can't even manage the food, they don't need to be called in by Beiran, and they will collapse internally, so the importance of timely supply of grain and grass is self-evident.

Fortunately.

There is enough food at this time, and with Yin Cai staying here, she doesn't actually need to do anything, but in the eyes of others, even if the emperor's niece is still here, it is impossible for the court not to send food.

It's a reassuring pill.

Therefore, although there are some complaints about the untimely supply of grain and grass, no one thinks about the bad side, let alone to the point of panic.

Now it's about stamina.

In the past, Beiran was a small group of cavalry who ran away after the battle, and the enemy was dark and I was clear, so they naturally had an advantage, but now they are fighting a protracted war, there are city walls, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is impossible for Beiran soldiers to invade on a large scale, it depends on who can consume whom.

Soon after.

Wang Shan and Wang Yue were still young, but they were light and agile, and often played the role of scouts in the army.

But unlike usual.

They saved a Central Plains woman by chance this time.

On the road.

Listening to the descriptions of the two, Si Jing and Yin Cai both "chuckled" in their hearts, and after looking at each other, Yin Cai asked without a trace: "Do you two know, what is that woman's name?" ”

"It seems to be called Bai Ru."

The brother and sister replied in unison.

Si Jing was stunned for a moment, looked at Yin Cai in disbelief, clenched her fists, gritted her teeth and said: "She is not dead, it is really retribution in the world, I can finally avenge my mother and brother." ”

It was reported before that Tulu killed the concubine.

Both of them guessed that one of the two unlucky concubines might be Bai Ru, but now it seems that they guessed wrong.

After all that is said.

She left the three of them behind and ran towards the inn quickly.

Wang Shan and Wang Yue looked confused, and while running behind, they listened to Yin Cai's brief explanation of what happened, and while they were shocked, they couldn't help but regret their actions of saving Bai Ru.

The group felt after the inn.

Si Jing pushed the door in a menacing manner, and as soon as he entered, he saw the proprietress and Bai Ru sitting opposite each other, the two were talking before, and when they heard the movement, they looked back with a surprised face.

This is where the effort comes.

The three people behind also caught up breathlessly.

When everyone didn't know how to react for a while, Bai Ru suddenly cried, ran with broken steps, knelt in front of Si Jing, and cried: "Second Miss, I can't stand you and Mrs., you kill me." ”

After speaking.

She cried even more earth-shatteringly.

Si Jing took half a step back and said in disgust: "What are you still playing, do you think I will let you go like this?" ”

If it weren't for the woman in front of him, his father would not have rebelled in the Central Plains and died tragically on the battlefield with the notoriety of a traitor, his mother would not have died in depression, he would not have been passed out, his brother would not have died, and Aunt Qing would not have gone away.

The culprit is in sight.

She could barely suppress the anger in her heart, and after kicking Bai Ru away, she was about to find a sharp weapon to kill her.

"Oops!"

Unexpectedly, the proprietress suddenly rushed forward, and while stopping Si Jing, she persuaded: "Xiao Jing, I heard what Miss Bai said just now, but I can't blame her alone for this matter." ”

Hear the words.

Si Jing was even more angry, looking at Bai Ru's eyes with hatred, but she was stopped by the proprietress, so she could only grit her teeth and say: "Aunt Gong, she is a liar, wherever she goes, she will be unlucky." ”

thought of the great changes in the family since Bai Ru appeared.

She trembled with anger, and while glaring at Bai Ru fiercely, tears couldn't stop flowing.

See this scenario.

Bai Ru came up crying, adding fuel to the fire and said: "Thank you for your kindness, but I am a cheap life, if I die, if I can make the second lady dissipate, then let her kill me." ”

That being said.

Her posture was very suspicious, she had been hiding behind the proprietress, and if she had taken a step further, she would have been caught by Si Jing.

As soon as the words of weakness came out, the proprietress stopped her and responded: "What is a cheap life, who is not raised by a father's mother, if there is any misunderstanding, it is good to say it, I don't think you two are bad people......"

"She is!"

Si Jing was almost mad with anger, when she was a child, Bai Ru used such a pitiful method to deceive her father, so that her mother couldn't speak, and died early before she was forty.

She no longer chased, but after standing still, she said hatefully: "You think I can't do anything about you, okay, you wait, even if this border city is demolished, I can't spare you!" ”

The voice fell.

She turned to go to the barracks to gather men.
