Chapter 391: Cold
After Pei Heng's birthday passed, the sky really cooled down completely.
Ning Zhi felt that Xihua City was much colder than Zuozhou.
She had already put on a small padded jacket, and the leather given by Pei Heng before was also brought and made into a big puffer.
She dislikes it too much, but she doesn't like to wear it.
He wore a small padded jacket and a thick cloak.
The cloak was full of duck down, light and warm, and Ning Zhi liked it.
However, Pei Heng is a person who wants to wear armor, or it is sometimes more appropriate to wear it outside.
It's only been a dozen October, and the first snow has begun to fall in Xihua City.
Ning Zhi stood in the corridor outside the door and frowned: "Why is it snowing so early?" ”
"yes, it's cold." Mai Dong tightened her cloak: "Listen to the gatekeeper, this is the depth of winter this year." ”
"That's not good news." Ning Zhi sighed and shook his head.
Originally, there was not enough food to eat this year, and it was so cold in winter......
One can imagine how many people will die. She knew it wasn't going to happen.
Although Dajin is now said to be not starving, it is not the time to become rich.
Trying to regain the lost territory in the north is a long and extremely draining process.
The people in Xihua City may be able to save them, but what about outside the city?
What about the villages and towns below?
This winter, even if it is a warm winter, it is inevitable that some people will freeze to death and starve to death. What's more, if there is too much snow, the weather is too cold......
Ay...... It can't be helped.
I can't take care of it.
"Why are you standing here?" As soon as Pei Heng came back, he saw Ning Zhi in a daze.
The snow was already heavy, and his own head was wet.
"Huh? Coming back? I just came out. Ning Zhi came back to his senses.
Pei Heng took her hand and came back in: "Be careful of freezing." ”
Ning Zhi snorted and didn't care much: "It's nothing today, right?" ”
Pei Heng thought about it and said, "It should be okay this year, but King Song is still a little uneasy." "I remembered what I had just discussed with the generals. He's not in a good mood.
Song Qingming couldn't sit still, he actually dared to sit still first.
Their spies can't easily enter the place of the Ta people, but Jiangdong and Ningzhi's people can go in, and presumably Pei Heng will arrange for people to go in later. So with the news, Ning Zhi is not surprised.
"What does he want to do?" Ning Zhi received Ning Qi's letter before, and he didn't say anything yet.
If so, she must have received the letter soon.
"Dispatch troops and stock up on food. I guess I want to go to war. Pei Heng sneered: "Is it because you can't take care of him now in this hall?" ”
"What a fucking ambition!" Ning Zhi snorted.
Pei Heng saw her saying foul language, and pinched her nose: "Don't say foul language." ”
Ning Zhi nodded obediently: "Remember." But I said that this Song Qingming is a little interesting. It's pretty impressive. Isn't it good to be the emperor for a few more days? ”
The ambition is really big enough, everyone knows that Pei Heng has just taken Xihua City, and his foundation is unstable. The Ta people were not in a hurry to fight back, but Song Qingming came first.
Pei Heng smiled: "That's what you said so easily." ”
"However, if he wants to go to war, as long as it starts, I'm afraid that the Ta people will also take advantage of it. Where do you say he wants to fight? Zuozhou or Xihuacheng? Ning Zhi asked.
"Zuo Zhou." Pei Heng affirmed.
"Well, I think so. But now it's winter, and spring has to start the war, right? Ning Zhi asked again.
"Not necessarily." Pei Heng shook his head lightly: "Although he was arrested by us for contacting the Ta people, it may not be impossible to get in touch." In winter, the Ta people lack food, and it stands to reason that they can't fight. But what if they have to fight because they don't have enough food to eat? After all, this year is different. ”
This year, the Ta people suffered a loss at the hands of the Dajin people, who knows if they can swallow this breath?
"What's more, they are fighting very badly, and Tashi has already fallen out of favor if he loses Xihua City. If he doesn't have the ability to get it back, others will take it back and it will be their own. ”
That's what the Tatars have always done. Even if it's the throne, it's the same. Although he is the heir in line, as long as you kill him, you can take the throne.
And no one accuses you of being unfaithful or filial. Therefore, every time the throne of the Ta people alternates, it is extremely bloody and brutal.
And because of the prevalence of this atmosphere, it is the same from the nobles to the common people. As long as you defeat the heir, you will be able to inherit smoothly without being blamed. And the one you defeat is the shame.
Ning Zhi nodded: "You're right. We need to be careful. ”
"Actually, I want you to go back to the capital for a while. Come back for the New Year. But after thinking about it, Linjing is not necessarily safe. Why don't you go back to your cage for the winter? Lonely cage town relies on your third uncle, even if Zuozhou is in chaos, you won't get in the way. Pei Heng looked at Ning Zhi and said.
Ning Zhi looked back with a smile: "Do you think I can agree?" ”
Pei Heng glared: "I know that you won't agree, don't you know that it's not safe here?" ”
"Nonsense, it's not safe here, should I go? Could it be that I'm so afraid of death? Ning Zhi glanced at Pei Heng: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm definitely not going." Besides, I'm your woman, can't you protect me? Lonely cage town must be safe, right? ”
Pei Heng was speechless by what she said, and reached out vigorously to rub her cheek.
Anyway, in fact, he didn't think of it, but his own woman was distressed, and he still had to be persuaded.
As for persuasion, then it is ...... There's no way. She was right, he was most at ease by his side. Zhizhi is not a person who doesn't know the importance of the matter, she really went to war, and she is very well-behaved.
It's just that Pei Heng thought a little frustrated, it's really not that he doesn't want to get married in a hurry...... The situation really doesn't allow it.
He even looked at Ning Zhi's immature and beautiful face and thought, this is not good, their eldest son and eldest daughter really want to jump out before they are married.
Thinking of this, he himself was shocked.
This is completely crooked by the little wife...... Where did you think about this in the past......
"What do you want?" The face has changed like a palette. Ning Zhi looked at him amusedly.
Pei Heng naturally couldn't say, but said, "I'm hungry." ”
Ning Zhi looked at him silently, he was hungry at this hour, so bear with it.
However, he still pushed the snack at hand over: "Let's eat some." ”
Pei Heng was very uninterested, so he casually picked up a piece and stuffed it in his mouth.
Ning Zhi smiled, and really smiled, and snatched the second snack in his hand: "Don't stuff it, I really can't eat for a while." If I don't ask, can't I? ”
You have to allow people to keep a little secret, don't you? It doesn't hurt.
Pei Heng was completely embarrassed by her: "I'll go to the study first." ”
Ning Zhi naturally didn't stop it, go ahead, go ahead.
When he went out, Ning Zhi smiled and said, "Let's get some soup to ward off the cold for lunch." Don't call Pei Heng sick. ”
Bai Zhi sighed and went out to pass the word. It's a soup to ward off the cold, and the girl's little day is coming.
