Night.

The army of Long Xiguo called for battle outside, and the noise made the city unpeaceful.

Chenguang sat in the courtyard, holding his cheek with one hand, and was quietly stunned by the intrusion of various noises.

Si Qian stopped in the distance and stared at her thin back for a while.

Huo Wu walked over from behind, holding a cloak in his hand, and was picked up by Si Qian when he passed by Si Qian.

"Go and tell the kitchen to cook a bowl of lotus seed osmanthus soup for His Highness to calm his nerves, His Highness is too draining these days." Si Qian said to her.

Fire Dance glanced at him, answered, and turned away.

Si Qian walked behind Chenguang with the cloak, draped the cloak over her body, and whispered:

"Your Highness."

Morninglight didn't respond to him immediately, she still held her cheek with one hand, staring at the dark sky in a daze. Autumn is very hot during the day and windy at night, which is the difference between autumn and summer, and the difference between morning and evening is huge.

The autumn wind blew away a lot of moisture, and even the skin of the morning sun became dry, and she felt annoying, and the scolding outside the city was even more irritating, all of them scolded her for being "not human".

Chenguang is indeed not a person, if she was told in a factual tone, she would not deny it, but they were obviously scolding her when they shouted like that, she didn't hate their scolding, but hated being scolded, she didn't like to be bullied.

Seeing that Chenguang didn't respond and he didn't withdraw his gaze from the sky, Si Qian stopped talking, and he stood quietly beside her.

After a long time, Chenguang came back to her senses, and she glanced at Si Qian. She didn't fully enter her own world when she was out of her mind, she knew that Si Qian was coming, but she didn't have time to pay attention to him for a while. She glanced at Si Qian and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"It's cold, Your Highness go back to your room." Very rarely, Si Qian said something to her that had nothing to do with official business.

Chenguang was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "I can't sleep if it's so noisy." ”

"Your Highness will catch a cold."

Chenguang glanced at him: "Xiaoxi would say this kind of thing, are you fake?" ”

"Is Your Highness worried about Chang Xi?" Si Qian asked softly following her words.

Chenguang shook his head slowly, denying: "No." ”

"Your Highness, rest assured, Chang Xi will definitely defend the southwest, and before long, Long Xiguo will definitely be owned by His Highness." Si Qian whispered, his voice soft and pleasant, and very firm.

Chenguang glanced at him.

At this moment, a violent autumn wind blew, so strong that it even blinded the eyes of the morning light, and the moths that kept flying around the candlelight on the table failed to suppress the gust of wind, but were suppressed by the strong wind, and the wings in flight lost their balance, and they were planted straight into the candle flame next to them and burned.

Chenguang was stunned for a moment.

She watched the moth that had just been revolving around the candlelight bury in the fire and quickly burned, as if it had become a new candlelight, and her heart suddenly jumped.

She looked up and looked at the sky without blinking.

Because the gust of wind just now was too strong, and the cloak draped on Chenguang's body was blown down, Si Qian bent down to pick up the cloak on the ground, and once again draped it on her back, this time kneeling down on one knee and tying the thin rope in front of her.

The morning light was silent, and seemed to be startling again.

Si Qian tied her cloak, got up from the ground, and looked at her.

After a while, Chenguang suddenly stood up and held out his hand to him. Si Qian was slightly stunned, holding her hand, and seeing Chenguang stepping on the stone bench and wanting to stand on the table, he held her up and helped her stand up.

Standing on the stone table, Chenguang looked at the stars in the night sky, feeling the autumn wind getting stronger and stronger.

Huo Wu walked over from behind, looked at her suspiciously, and glanced at Si Qian again.

Si Qian looked at Chenguang's back without saying a word.

About half an hour later, Chenguang suddenly turned around and instructed Si Qiandao:

"Let people find the bronze bird and tie it to a high place, and measure the direction of the wind."

"Yes." Si Qian didn't ask, answered softly, and stretched out his hand to her.

Chenguang took his hand, carefully got down from the stone table, and became lazy again, she rubbed her eyes and walked into the room, and said:

"Go to sleep."

……

The bronze bird is a bird that can see the direction of the wind, even if it is thousands of miles away, it can also be judged by the rotation of the bird's head. In the high flat far away place, stand five zhang pole, make a plate on the rod, make a three-legged black on the top, connect the two feet to stand outside, one foot is tied down and turn inward, the wind comes to turn, look back to it, the bird's mouth is a flower, and the flower is occupied.

The bronze bird in Chenguang's hand has a long history and a long history, it is said that it was brought into the desert from the Fengming Empire when the Fengming Empire died, and it has been stored in the Holy Son Mountain.

Chenguang has been measuring the direction of the wind with the copper bird in Zuo'an City, judging the wind speed according to the shaking of the leaves.

Si Qian led the army of Fengying Kingdom to defend Zuo'an City, and Xue Ling led people to attack the city several times, but they all returned in vain.

It wasn't until the morning light was enough that she came down from a high place and sat in the conference hall of the temporary mansion, staring at Long Xiguo's map with her hands on her cheeks.

Si Qian stood in front of the map and looked at it for a while, pointed to a basin not far from Zuo'an City, and looked at the morning light with an inquiring gaze:

"The terrain near Jiping Village is more suitable."

Chenguang thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's too obvious, Xue Ling is thoughtful and not easy to be fooled." ”

Her gaze swept around Jiping Village, and finally fixed on a certain place on the map, which was farther away from Zuo'an City, she suddenly stretched out her finger and pointed to that place, and said to Si Qian in a sure tone:

"Wanping Mountain, Wanping Mountain."

Si Qian looked at the direction of her finger and muttered for a while, then nodded:

"Yes, I chose Wanping Mountain."

"It's like a little bit." Chenguang said to him with a smirk.

"Yes." Si Qian's eyes swept over a touch of softness as he looked at her.

……

Xue Ling led the army of Long Xiguo to launch a fourth onslaught on Zuo'an City.

This time the onslaught was harder than any before, and Zuo Ancheng was finally torn open by them.

The contest of strength between the two sides made the gap between the military strength of the two countries clear at a glance, and soon, the army of Feng Yingguo was defeated again and was forced to withdraw from Zuo'an City.

The army of the Long Xi Kingdom pursued closely, and after continuously piercing the defense of the Feng Ying Kingdom army, when the autumn wind was the tightest, the Feng Ying Kingdom army was chased to Wanping Mountain.

The Feng Ming Kingdom army fled into Wanping Mountain and quickly occupied Wanping Mountain.

Wanping Mountain is overgrown with weeds and dense trees, the army of the Feng Ming Kingdom hid in the mountains and quickly set up defenses, refusing to come out, the army of the Long Xi Kingdom could not attack it, so they could only be stationed at the foot of the mountain and confront the army of the Feng Ming Kingdom.

Although Long Xiguo's army won many battles, Mu Han still did not dare to relax, she warned Xue Ling:

"The Phoenix Lord of the Phoenix Kingdom is scheming, and he must not be taken lightly."

Xue Ling responded in a deep voice.

He was not complacent just because he had won a few small battles, on the contrary, he was very cautious.
