Chapter 14: Prologue (1)

In the middle of the night, Chu Changting had nightmares, and the dreams were full of robbers with teeth and claws, waving the big knife in his hand and rushing towards her. As soon as the picture turned, it was a blood-stained plum makeup lying on her side on the carriage and dying, blood flowing.

"Ahh Yes!!! Chu Changting woke up from her dream sweating profusely, feeling the hairs behind her stand up, she curled up tightly on the side of the bed, covering her head with a quilt, but fell into a warm embrace.

Chu Changting was frightened at first, but gradually eased down when she heard Shen Liangchen's familiar laughter, her body fell softly into Shen Liangchen's arms, smacked her lips, and then rubbed on his chest, and said softly, "Why did you run over?" ”

"I miss my wife, and my heart is itching." Shen Liangchen gouged Chu Changting's head out of the quilt, then pressed his chin against her head, and wrapped his arms around her unconsciously, "What's the matter, you have a nightmare?" ”

"Hmm. But now that I'm with you, I'm not afraid. Chu Changting shook his head in a daze, and was pressed against Shen Liangchen's chin. Shen Liangchen gently laid her flat on the bed, and then set up the quilt for her, his warm and jade-like hand caressed her tender white and delicate little face, Chu Changting paid attention to the touch of that hand that made her feel at ease and intoxicated before falling asleep again.

As always, it is as warm as jade, but there are a few thick cocoons.

"I'll keep you asleep." Shen Liangchen whispered in her ear, but there was slow nostalgia and reluctance in his eyes.

If you have worries in your heart, you will have worries on the battlefield. can no longer fight as desperately as in the past, just because there is still such a person at home who is struggling to look forward to it.

Shen Liangchen sighed softly after making sure that Chu Changting was asleep. He got up and brushed his sleeves, and once again glanced at Chu Changting deeply, deeply, deeply, he knew that this glance, he had to be enough to see the day of his triumphant return, so that he could ease the pain of lovesickness in his heart a little.

The next day, Chu Changting slept until three o'clock in the morning before waking up, and Xun'er saw Chu Changting sitting up slowly, so he went over to serve her to change clothes. Chu Changting glanced at Xun'er with squinted eyes, yawned heavily, and asked a little lazily, "What time is it?" ”

"Miss, it's noon." Xun'er smiled mischievously, waiting to see Chu Changting's reaction. Sure enough, as she expected, Chu Changting's apricot eyes, which were still half-open just now, immediately widened, and she grabbed Xun'er's hand almost frantically and asked, "Why didn't anyone call me?" Don't you need to rush today? Shen Liangchen will also call me in the future? ”

"Miss, calm down for a while." Xun'er gently stroked Chu Changting's back, "Mei Makeup said that Shen Gongzi instructed Miss to have a nightmare last night and sleep unsteadily, let you sleep a little longer, we don't need to call you." ”

“…… Oh. Chu Changting's whole body relaxed, his back leaned on the back of the bed, and his face was flushed, like a budding spring lotus, rippling with fresh morning dewdrops.

"Oh yes, Miss, there's one more thing, after Xun'er tells you, you must not go crazy again." Xun'er changed Chu Changting's jacket, slightly worried about Chu Changting's petty nature, and thought about how to properly tell her that Shen Liangchen had rushed to the extreme north battlefield overnight.

"Huh?" Chu Changting raised his little face suspiciously, and looked straight at Xun'er's somewhat evasive gaze.

"Last night, the king ordered an urgent announcement and summoned General Shen to fight in the extreme north. General Shen has left overnight......" Xun'er said cautiously, and couldn't stop glancing at Chu Changting's facial expression as she spoke, to her surprise, Chu Changting didn't have any overreaction, she first looked up at Xun'er in a little surprise, and then grabbed the futon.

She's worried.

"Miss, don't worry, General Shen has experienced a hundred battles, and he will definitely return triumphantly this time!" Xun'er thoughtfully put on shoes and socks for Chu Changting, smoothing out the wrinkles on her clothes.

"He's so annoying, Lord Yama naturally won't like him." Chu Changting pursed his lips, with seven points of certainty and three points of worry in his eyes.

After freshening up, the three of them continued on the road back to the north. Without Shen Liangchen, Chu Changting was a little obviously distracted, and he was bored all the way. Xun'er seemed to see through her thoughts, and kept telling her jokes to make her happy. Chu Changting only smiled perfunctorily, and his mind was not on it at all.

Yaohe City.

The north wind is howling, and the flag is hunting. In the vast and low sky, a golden-eyed goshawk circled and soared, drawing sharp lines in the gray sky.

Gao Che Yuchi stood on the city wall in a tiger fur, looking down at the white bones and dripping blood all over the city wall, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his curly beard trembled slightly, like the mane of a horse running on the grassland swaying against the fierce cold wind. He clenched the wolf's tooth wrench on his thumb tightly with his left hand, and then said in a low voice: "Go and grab all the food, livestock, and women that can be snatched, and it can be regarded as comforting the souls of our dead brothers in the sky." ”

Wu Yiqi bowed his head slightly and asked, "...... the city lord of Yaohe City?"

"Lock it up, and then shoot a letter to the military camp of the Northern Tianzhuo Kingdom, if you want to rescue the people and city lords of Yaohe City, give us all the food in the granary of Beihuping, and we will withdraw immediately, and we will not be entangled." Gao Che Yuchi stretched out his left hand, the goshawk landed steadily on his lower arm, his wings fluttered, a few eagle feathers fell in response, his golden eyes turned a few times, and he looked at the northern granary of the Southern and Northern Heavenly Burning Country.

"Yes." Wu slang bowed and retreated.

At the foot of the mountain, the golden banner of the Golden Armor Army of the Northern Heaven Burning Kingdom is gorgeous and dazzling, blending with the sunset and turning into a blood-like tragedy.
