The small border town near the Southern Wei Dynasty was the place where Nalan Ye led his troops to station.

At this time, it was not as dangerous as it was in the capital, and the drill team was orderly, some patrolled, some on duty, and some on defense, and there was no bloodshed and cruelty after the battle.

Nalan Ye was flipping through the military newspaper in the camp tent, although the Southern Wei side had obviously increased its troops recently, it had reduced the sneak attack on the Western Chu side. He sent spies to investigate, and the Southern Wei side, like them, practiced and assembled every day, and showed no signs of attacking. This made him ponder, but also somewhat doubted.

It has been like this for the past half a month, and since he can't see any signs of action in Southern Wei, he will also focus on defense.

Looking at the sky, the sun was rising outside, and it was the best morning of the day, Nalan was calm and slowly walked out of the tent. Along the way, soldiers and soldiers greeted him, and looking at his tall and vigorous figure, they all showed admiration and admiration.

Since Luo Qingluan left, there were no more personal soldiers around him, and when a soldier saw Nalan Ye, he immediately came up to curry favor: "Lord Wang, where are you going?" Do you want to be served? โ€

"No," Nalan Ye said in a deep voice, "I'll just walk around." โ€

It's boring, and the soldier is not discouraged, but smiles: "Okay, Lord Wang, my subordinates won't bother you, I'll go over there to see Xiao Wang's side, how are the recruits being trained?" I've got to supervise him. โ€

Looking at the energetic appearance of the soldiers under his subordinates, Nalan Ye smiled slightly and walked forward with his hands in his hands.

Along the way, there was more and more greenery, and there were more and more trees on both sides. The camp is stationed outside the city, surrounded by forests and a variety of flora and fauna. Looking at the dense forest in front of him, Nalan Ye thought of Luo Qingluan.

It would have been nice if she were.

Recalling the meal Luo Qingluan made for him, if he was in this forest, then he must have been blessed again.

As long as it is from her hands, no matter what kind of snakes, insects, rats and ants, it seems to be able to become a supreme delicacy, and if it is some large animals, such as wild boars or fish and birds, it is a sumptuous delicacy.

Strongly missing Luo Qingluan, Nalan also longed to be able to return to the capital immediately, but now this idea is just an idea, he must be stationed here until the Southern Wei retreats.

There is no end but not for a long time, once he also said to Luo Qingluan, as little as three months, more than a year. Now a month has passed, and there is no sign of the Southern Wei retreating. Nalan Ye couldn't help but feel more and more solemn in his heart.

Just as he was thinking, a voice came from behind him, and Nalan Ye looked back at it, and a soldier hurriedly ran over, hugged his fists and said, "Marshal, General Yuan is back." โ€

Yuan Xing?

Nalan Ye's heart moved, and he immediately turned around and rushed back to the barracks.

He sent Yuan Xing to bring the dried prey to the Chu Palace, which was to bring Luo Qingluan a gift and a piece of his heart. It will take at least three days along the way, why did Yuan Xing come back so soon? Could it be that something is going on?

Sure enough, Nalan Ye returned to the camp tent and immediately saw Yuan Xing's relieved look: "Lord Wang, you are really fine!" The subordinates were really worried about death. โ€

Nalan Ye frowned: "What did you say?" โ€

He's naturally fine, and there hasn't been any war recently, so how can anything happen.

When Yuan Xing told Luo Qingluan what he told him, and also talked about the recent movements in the capital, he heard that Nalan Ye's heart sank. Who spread such a ridiculous rumor? It was even said that the soldiers of Western Chu were attacked by the Southern Wei Dynasty, and he was also seriously injured, and his life and death are unknown.

"You don't know, lord?" Yuan Xing breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, "The villain just arrived in the capital, and when he saw the princess, you don't know how anxious she was, and the subordinates thought that something had really happened to the prince." The princess ordered her subordinates to rush back immediately to check what was going on, but fortunately it was a false alarm. โ€

Nalan Ye said in a deep voice, "How is the princess now?" โ€

Yuan Xing said: "The princess is fine, but I don't know the situation of the prince, so I am inevitably a little worried." โ€

Yes, his Qingluan must be worried, he doesn't know his situation, his life and death are uncertain, but he is afraid that he will not be able to sleep and eat and sleep at night. Fortunately, she didn't have a momentary impulse, and followed Yuan Xinglai, which was a lot calmer.

"But my lord, who spread this news? Why? We are all right, everyone is safe, why are there such unbelievable rumors? Yuan Xing couldn't understand why, it was just a rumor, even if it was from the Southern Wei side, what good would it do to them.

Afraid that he wanted to investigate the movements of the Southern Wei Dynasty, Nalan Ye immediately sent a large number of spies to quietly enter the territory of the Southern Wei Dynasty, which was intended to search for anomalies, not to assassinate or sneak attack, as long as he took care of his own safety, this was the top priority.

The next day, before the spies sent out reported the movements of the Southern Wei side, some abnormalities occurred.

A soldier hurriedly came to report: "Lord Wang, my subordinates found that there was movement fifty miles ahead, a team of about 1,000 people, but it didn't look like they were going to sneak attack. And the direction in which they are moving is the Southern Wei Dynasty.

When Yuan Xing heard this, he immediately said: "Could it be the advance team sent by the Southern Wei Dynasty?" If they dare to sneak attack, they will definitely be killed by us. Lord Wang, his subordinates are willing to lead troops to battle. โ€

Nalan Ye didn't answer, a team of 1,000 people, and it was broad daylight, if it was a sneak attack, it would be too much to underestimate them. I think it's weird!

"No," Nalan raised his hand at night, stopping Yuan Xing's intentions, "Don't do it, just wait and see." โ€

Thinking of the middle of the night, this small group of troops stationed forty miles away from them really sneaked in, waving their flags and shouting, and the sound of killing shook the sky, but the attack was thunder and rain. At the cost of the lives of more than a hundred or so people, he hurriedly retreated.

But what makes people wonder is that when the other party retreated the money, he set fire to the surrounding woods, and the fire was not extinguished until dawn, and all the animals and vegetation in the forest were burned to pieces, which was miserable.

Just when everyone was puzzled, they didn't want another small army to come and harass them the next day.

The means are the same as the previous ones, they are also touch-and-go, a few false moves, and they are not in love with war, which is obviously to cause them unease. The weapons used are basically rockets, and they do not fight in close quarters. Half an hour later, the sneak attack ended, and the other party fled again. In addition to leaving dozens of corpses, it was another mess.

After three or four or five days like this, there were seven or eight small battles of this kind, and if you talk about the benefits of the other side, there are not necessarily many, and hundreds of soldiers have died. And on Nalan Ye's side, because of proper precautions, there were not many casualties. But they were tired of running for their lives, and everyone was tired from time to time.

Some hot-tempered soldiers were reluctant: "Lord Wang, this group of bastards of the Southern Wei Dynasty is always harassing, but they don't really fight, they are just shrinking turtles." If they are afraid, they or their subordinates simply lead troops to destroy them directly. โ€

In addition, there will be calm dissuasion: "No, the Southern Wei Dynasty has become more and more eccentric recently, if you can't find out their true purpose, it's better not to venture into greed, in case you are deceived." โ€

When the 50,000 elite soldiers sent by Emperor Xichu came to the border town to support, Nalan Ye finally understood what was going on. Everything turned out to be ...... Xiao Lingyu's words?

Thinking of the abnormal behavior of the Southern Wei army in the past and recently, how could a smart Nalan Ye not understand the reason? He was also a little crying and laughing, he couldn't imagine that Xiao Ningyu would do such a ridiculous act for himself, but he could also understand this plan, but he was afraid that it was not just Xiao Ningyu who laid it out.

If he was seriously wounded and the rumors of the defeat of the Western Chu army became a fact, then who would be the beneficiary?

At that moment, Nalan Ye directly took down the 50,000 troops in a swift manner.

These 50,000 troops are indeed a good help for him, but they must be completely controlled by him. Even if the 50,000 troops were sent by Emperor Xichu to reinforce them, after all, the rumors and the reality are very different, and he does not plan to hand over military power.

The general who came with the troops was named Ding Shan, and he had a very important relationship with the fifth prince Nangong Chen.

Originally, he thought that he could get benefits, but he didn't expect Nalan Ye to not even say anything to him, and directly sent someone to take him down. Caught off guard, he was caught without even reacting. Kneeling on the ground, Ding Shaan's face turned red and said, "King Chu, my majesty sent me to support you, why did you take me down?" Don't hurry up and teach me to let go. โ€

Nalan Ye smiled slightly, "I've wronged the general, please be a guest here for a few days, and my safety is guaranteed." โ€

Ding Shaan's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "Lord King Chu, Your Majesty is worried about your safety, so I will come to the rescue, since the King of Chu is fine, we will never have much to do, I just ask the King of Chu to put the contemptible people back, and immediately lead the army back to Western Chu, and never rush to attack the King of Chu." โ€

It's not a question of grabbing or not grabbing credit, but Nalan Ye's plan will not be leaked to others, so he doesn't say much, waving his hand, and asking his subordinates to detain Ding Shaan, closely monitor it, and wait for the situation to develop further.

After doing everything, Nalan Ye sent Yuan Xing back to the capital, and he naturally didn't want Luo Qingluan to worry about him. Tell Yuan Xing to tell Luo Qingluan what happened here, so that she can rest assured.

Some people are happy and some are worried, some are looking forward to it, and some people are worried.

The happiest person in the capital is Xiao Ningyu, who has moved out of Honglu Temple.

In order to express his gratitude to her, Emperor Xichu specially allocated a mansion for Xiao Ningyu to live temporarily, just waiting for Dongwan's army to arrive. As for the future, Xiao Ningyu will marry Nalan Ye, or Nalan Ye will really not die, Xiao Ningyu will hold Nalan Ye's spirit card to marry, which is not in the consideration of Emperor Xichu.

As long as he can save Xi Chu's safety, everything else doesn't matter to him. But in front of him, he naturally wanted to treat Xiao Ningyu as if he were at home.

Looking at the various gifts sent by Emperor Xichu, the maid Xiaohong was surprised and delighted, and said: "Princess, slave and maid, congratulations, if you can marry the King of Chu, then you will really get what you want." โ€

Xiao Ningyu smiled slightly and did not speak, but the pride in her heart was overflowing. She naturally knew that all this was a rumor and could be goofed at any time, but as long as Nangong Chen operated well and prevented all the news from reaching the capital, then he would have enough time to operate slowly.

When the 100,000 army was sent and besieged by three sides, Emperor Xichu did not agree to her request.

Although this move is a bit of a danger, but in order to get Nalan Night, she doesn't care about it.

Slowly picking up a delicate pearl hairpin in front of her, Xiao Ningyu smiled at the mirror. The pearl light of the pearl hairpin reflects her snow-white skin, don't make her face more delicate, and a hint of smile on her lips makes Xiao Ningyu look more confident and proud.

Nalan night, Nalan night, apart from her Xiao Ningyu, who else can do this to him?

If he could know his hard work and treat her well, it would not be in vain for her to take such painstaking efforts.

Xiaohong suddenly remembered something, and said to Xiao Ningyu: "Princess, although His Majesty Xichu has promised you, the princess of Chu ......"

This woman ......

Xiao Ningyu snorted lightly: "How smart is she Luo Qingluan?" As long as the order of the Emperor of Western Chu was given, would she dare to disobey? Aren't you afraid that the whole family will be beheaded? Now Nalan is at the border at night, but he has no time to protect her. โ€
