Just that outfit made Pei Liao dumbfounded. Although Pei Liao is a big old man and doesn't understand women's jewelry, the white fox fur wrapped around this woman is still made of the best cloud brocade, soft and slippery, and the embroidered patterns on it prove that this woman is definitely not small.

If it was a spy, it would be absolutely impossible to dress up like this, and he would look so beautiful that it was clearly eye-catching.

"My lord, we went to the front to check, there are only two sets of footprints, and there is no one else nearby." A soldier came over and said.

"My lord, what should I do?"

"Don't make a noise yet, check it out."

In the face of this sudden, beautiful woman, Pei Liao always felt that something was about to happen, so he asked his subordinates to search the five-mile range to see if there would be any other findings, and then personally carried the woman into the camp, ready to wait for her to wake up and ask again.

A brazier was lit in the tent, and it warmed up in a moment, but Pei Liao looked at the unconscious woman and felt a little like a dream.

He had never seen such a beautiful woman up close, with snow-white skin and a luxurious body, and she was proud of her family at first sight. But he couldn't figure out more and more, where did this woman come from, if it was from Xichu, then it was impossible to cross the Gobi Desert for nearly a thousand miles with just this woman and a guard!

Just as he was thinking, the voice of his subordinates came from outside the tent: "My lord, the guard is awake." ”

Pei Liao stood up, walked to the door and looked back at the woman who was still sleeping with her eyes closed, and then lifted the tent door and went out. When he came to another camp, he saw the man who looked like a guard looking at him vigilantly, and his expression was full of apprehension.

"You ......"

"What about the princess? Is the princess in your hands? Just as Pei Liao spoke, the man who looked like a guard spoke at the same time, but what he said made Pei Liao and everyone present feel their hearts skip a beat.

Princess? That beautiful woman is a princess?

Walking in front of the man, Pei Liao looked solemn, stared at him and said, "What princess are you talking about?" ”

With a shock, the man seemed to be about to burst out, and the previous weakness disappeared without a trace, as if his body contained endless explosive power, and a roar came out of his mouth: "What happened to her?" That's the princess, the princess of Chu, the princess of your king of Chu, you dare to touch her? Where is her, if you dare to disagree with her, I will desperately ...... you all"

Before the remaining two 'killed' were finished, the entire camp was already stunned.

"Princess Chu? That woman is the princess of Chu, it's impossible, right? ”

"What, it's actually the marshal's woman!"

"Princess Chu? How could the marshal's woman come here? ”

The last time the King of Chu faced the Southern Wei Dynasty, the Princess of Chu secretly went to the front line, saved many wounded soldiers, and even treated countless people who were infected with the epidemic.

Many people know about this, but there are not many people who have seen Princess Chu with their own eyes, even Pei Liao. Although he has been fighting with the King of Chu, he is not a personal guard, it is impossible to get along with Nalan day and night, and it is impossible to see the marshal's woman. The last group of people who followed the marshal, such as Yuan Xing and Yong'an, are still following the marshal now, otherwise this woman can be recognized at a glance if she is real or fake.

But even so, Pei Liao didn't dare to be careless, if this beautiful woman was really the princess of Chu, he didn't dare to offend in the slightest.

Moreover, Princess Chu is obviously in the capital, why did a good man come all the way to the front line with an escort? Looking at their appearance, not only did they travel for a few days and nights, but they were also afraid that they would encounter some problems along the way. Even, Pei Liao thought of a more serious problem, there was only one princess of Chu who was left to guard, and she was from the direction of Western Chu, why didn't she bring more of her subordinates? Could it be that something happened in the capital that forced Princess Chu to leave the capital and go to the front line to find the marshal for help?

"Send someone to Shuyang City immediately and inform the marshal of this! 100,000 urgent, no delay! ”

After giving this order, Pei Liao also made another decision, wait until dawn the next day, wait for him to ask clearly, if the princess of Chu is really in a hurry, then he is ready to personally escort the princess of Chu to Shuyang City to see the marshal.

Regardless of whether her identity is true or false, or if there is really an urgent matter, when he sees the marshal, he can be completely relieved.

Otherwise, if anything is delayed, Pei Liao will not be responsible.

……

In Shuyang City, Nalan Ye had just returned with his troops.

The 100,000 troops from Puning County had been killed and wounded by him several times, and only about 30,000 remained, retreating hundreds of miles away to survive. I'm afraid that it won't be long before he will either lead his troops to attack again and completely exterminate them and take prisoners, or he will be defeated and flee directly before he can do it.

In a bad mood or not, Nalan sat in the city lord's mansion at night, ate something casually, and continued to study the next step.

The military affair ruined his plans, but it had already happened, and he couldn't dwell on one point and immediately came up with other alternatives. Way. It's just that it wasn't his first choice after all, and by the end of a few days, he had fought three more times with the North Vietnamese army, and the 170,000 army he led had only more than 160,000 left, and after all, there were still more than 8,000 dead and wounded.

There are no immortals in war, it's just that Nalan Ye wants to minimize it. After all, everyone who followed him was a comrade in life and death, a useless position, and they had experienced a battle of life and death, without their dedication and heroic killing, he would not have been able to create his current prestige.

Fortunately, the migration of Shuyang City went smoothly.

Under the coercion and intimidation of the city supervisor Dongping, the North Vietnamese who were not willing to leave their hometowns gradually began to move their families, and now fifty percent of the people have registered and reported, and the first batch of departure time is staring at five days later, hoping that Guan Dongping will be able to take away seventy percent of the people by then, and the rest will be easy to do.

Nalan Ye didn't care what means Dongping used, as long as he could achieve his goal. Although such a method is somewhat disgraceful, it can also effectively reduce the casualties of the people. And give them a hope of survival, they will not think about resisting, which is very beneficial to the smooth occupation of Shuyang City.

"Marshal, General Pei is here, saying that he has something important to ask to see the marshal!" Just then, the guards came in to report.

"Pei Liao? At this time, what is he doing in Shuyang? Nalan Ye was a little puzzled, he arranged for Pei Liao to stay in charge of the military quartermaster, although there was a problem with the recent winter clothes, but he knew that the responsibility was not Pei Liao, so he didn't blame him.

But Pei Liao blamed himself very much, and personally took the blame for this, and came to Shuyang from Shuyang, just to severely punish his own negligence. Nalan Ye was originally going to punish him, after all, someone must be responsible for the mistakes of the military quartermasters, and Pei Liao's inspection was unfavorable, which was considered secondary responsibility, so he was given ten military sticks and fined for three months, and he gave up.

has already been punished, why did Pei Liao come to see him? Nalan Ye was just about to ask, but after thinking about it, it was better to go and see it directly.

Who knows, before Nalan Ye had time to leave the camp, Pei Liao's anxious voice came from outside: "Marshal, why is it not well...... It's urgent, I really have something urgent to see the marshal, 100,000 urgent......"

"General Pei, wait a minute, the marshal hasn't spoken yet, you can't go in." The guards on duty would not let him in.

Nalan Ye finally frowned and shouted, "Pei Liao, come in!" ”

The tent door was immediately opened, Pei Liao rushed in, and his head was still covered with snow foam, and he immediately knelt on the ground: "Marshal, my subordinates have something important to report, and I ask the marshal to retreat ......left and right."

"Something to say!" Nalan Ye said in a deep tone: "Pei Liao, Ben Shuai ordered you to be on duty, but you left your post without permission, if you can't say a reason, Ben Shuai will never spare you!" ”

Hurried along the way, but Pei Liao took the woman who was suspected to be the princess of Chu, and it still took a day and a half of effort to rush from Shuyang to Shuyang. It seemed that because of the running along the way, the woman became weaker and weaker, and even developed a high fever this morning. Pei Liao was afraid that something would happen, so he sped up more and more, who knew that he encountered an avalanche halfway through, but fortunately he hid quickly, otherwise he would really be buried by the snow.

It's a pity that the two horses didn't escape, Pei Liao could only carry the woman on foot, but fortunately, after the last twenty or so roads, he finally arrived in Shuyang, and he was already tired and about to lie down.

But Pei Liao didn't dare to rest at all, and was about to see Nalan Ye directly, and he couldn't even wait for the report in a hurry.

"Marshal, subordinates ......" Glancing at Yuan Xing and Yong'an standing behind Nalan Ye, Pei Liao finally said: "The subordinates brought Princess Chu!" ”

"What did you say?" Nalan Ye was shocked, almost thinking that he had misheard.

"The subordinates said that Princess Chu was outside, and ...... The princess seems to have had an accident, so she came all the way to the border. Now that the princess has a high fever that does not go away, her subordinates are in a hurry to ......"

I only felt that the wind around me moved, and Nalan Ye had already rushed out, and as soon as Pei Liao paused, he saw Yuan Xing also rushing over: "You said that Princess Chu is here, just outside?" How did the princess come here, and what happened? ”

Yuan Xing didn't wait for Pei Liao to answer, as soon as he finished speaking, he opened the tent door and rushed out, followed by Yong'an. In the blink of an eye, Pei Liao was the only one left in the tent.

Outside, Nalan Ye saw a woman half-squatting in the snow, whose face was covered by a fox fur. In the cold snow, because in the barracks, she was the woman Pei Liao brought, before she was identified, a group of soldiers surrounded her from afar, neither came forward to ask, nor dared to let her leave.

She lowered her head, her small white chin faintly exposed, and the hot breath that exhaled came from the big air, making her appear more and more fragile and helpless.

"Qingluan!" Nalan Ye looked at the figure, small, slender, and her whole heart shrank at once, and she instantly rushed over and hugged her in her arms: "Qingluan, Qingluan, why are you here?" ”

The small body was in his arms, and the face raised his head, but his eyes seemed to be closed, his face was flushed, and he looked at him weakly: "Na, Nalan night...... I ......" Before she finished speaking, she seemed to have no support, and fell limply into his arms.

……

In the tent, Nalan had been sitting for two hours at night, and Luo Qingluan finally woke up quietly.

"Qingluan, you're finally awake......" Nalan Ye was worried and immediately clenched her hand.

The military doctor had already come, and said that the princess of Chu was suffering from the wind and cold, and the fatigue along the way, so she fell into a coma. However, there was another thing that shocked Nalan Ye, he didn't understand why Luo Qingluan appeared in the barracks at this time, and looking at her appearance, it didn't look like she secretly followed him to help.

After all, she is already pregnant, counting the time, it will already be more than three months, and Luo Qingluan will not care about her body. What happened to make her come to him so embarrassed at the expense of traveling long distances?
