With the sound of wind and snow, Sister Yan fell asleep for an hour before waking up.

Maybe it's because I'm too tired along the way, or maybe I've settled down a little after returning to the vast world.

Sitting on a low couch covered with soft animal skins, goat's milk was hot on the fire and white smoke was rising.

Glency opened the curtain first to see that she was awake, and then walked in and poured her a cup of hot goat's milk first, "Sister Yan, you are awake." ”

"Well, what time is it? ”

"It's the end of the Shen time, why don't you sleep for a while, sister. ”

"No, we traveled day and night, but I wasn't asked to sleep, where is your brother?"

"He's still in the tent. ”

Sister Yan got up and tidied up, went out with Granxi, and walked straight to Granwang's tent.

"The grasslands are very wary of foreign forces, and our manpower is not easy to move, I want you to help us search for what forces are active on the grassland. ”

Gran Wang said, "Now that the forces of all parties have infiltrated, the people of your Emperor's Mansion and the people of the Xie family are operating in the grassland, and those people are all shrinking, I will ask the leaders of the other tribes to see the forces on their side." ”

Gran Xi said, "These people are not moving now, they must be holding back, brother, you have to investigate carefully." ”

"My sixth brother has lost his trace in the grassland, but the situation here is different after all, he is not so easy to control, if you find any movement, you must tell me. ”

Grancy heard this and said sadly, "I rushed to find Brother Xie Liu, and I didn't stop him from coming to the grassland, because I didn't think it through." ”

Sister Yan said, "Thanks to you this time, otherwise the conspiracy of the Jin Kingdom will succeed, my sixth brother makes a decision, I don't blame you, I believe I will be able to find him soon." ”

Then he turned to Gran Wang, and said, "There is another matter, the Ministry of Works has only made a rough plan based on the records, and I want you to have them take them to the Niuyang River to have a look." ”

"Are you so sure that other people will be moved by you?"

"No matter what they think, we are well prepared and we don't fall into a passive situation. ”

"Then I'll pick a few people to take them." ”

As he was talking, someone came to report that the envoy of the Jin State was leaving.

Gran Xi said, "These cowards, they looked amazing a few days ago, as soon as Sister Yan came, they couldn't sit still, let's go, I hate them when I look at them." ”

Gran Wan glanced at her helplessly, "I'll go and see." ”

"Let's go too, I'll see what they want to do." ”

"Then I'll go too. ”

The three of them went out and saw that the Jin people were already packing up, and the sky was dark, but they didn't want to stay anymore.

Seeing Gran Wang, those people also stopped to say hello, "Chief Gran, there have been many disturbances these days, so we will leave today." ”

"It's getting late, and the snow hasn't stopped, so why bother leaving at this time." ”

The leader said, "We are on a mission, we can't just think about our own well-being, thanks to the kindness of the leader of Gran, we still have important things to do, and we have to leave early." ”

That Zheng Wei, with a vegetable-looking face, stood behind everyone with a cowering face when he saw his sister's face, it seemed that he was frightened, Zhang Ling, Gran Xi and others were very relieved.

Sister Yan stood on the side, too lazy to talk to them, just looked at their anxious expressions and didn't seem to be fake, and wondered in her heart, these people should stay and monitor their movements now, and if they suddenly want to leave, they must have some other plans.

The leaders of the Jin Kingdom were also afraid that Sister Yan would not go well and do something amazing, so they paid great attention to their words and deeds, and did not dare to offend her in the slightest, let alone attract her attention.

Wait for the group to leave.

Sister Yan instructed the officials of the Ministry of Works to follow the people of the Grawang tribe to the scene to investigate.

Zhang Ling and the others were also eager to try, so Sister Yan asked them to go together.

After arranging everyone's tasks, Sister Yan assigned people to investigate Xie Liu's whereabouts and explore the follow-up actions of the Jin Kingdom.

Zhang Ling and his entourage set off overnight, but fortunately, the wind and snow slowly became less and no longer in the way.

See many settlements along the way.

One of the students asked, "How can the Gran tribe be one of the major tribes, how can we not see many people?"

The big man who led them said with a smile, "The grassland is mainly nomadic, and when everyone gathers together, the water and grass are not enough to distribute, and a tribe is scattered into many settlements, echoing each other from afar, which is convenient for survival." ”

"I see, sure enough, the grassland people also have their own survival wisdom. ”

"The leader asked us to take you to see the Niuyang River, there are several tribes living along the Niuyang River, but although they occupy the riverbank, the Niuyang River only flows for two seasons, and they are also difficult to endure in the other two seasons, so there is no completely good place in the grassland. ”

"And how did you survive?"

"You Central Plains people don't have a saying, the mountains don't turn and the water turns, then we will turn the people if the water doesn't turn, find out the law of the water flow, and follow the migration. ”

Everyone in the Chu State was thoughtful.

"Even so, the grassland is no longer able to flourish, we have limited food and water, and we don't have any medicinal herbs, so the population has been maintained as it is now." ”

Someone said, "Aren't you trying to make a change? You can also follow the example of the Central Plains to build a water diversion channel." ”

The grassland people laughed when they heard this, "Our cattle and sheep have to eat fresh grass, and it is not like the grain grown in the Central Plains, besides, everyone can only barely eat their stomachs, who has the strength to do this, in case it is not effective, isn't it done in vain?"

Zhang Ling said, "The state of Chu was only a small country to be slaughtered by others before, and countless ancestors laid the foundation, so that future generations have room to live and work in peace and contentment. ”

"We don't understand what you're talking about, but who doesn't want to live? ”

When several students heard this, they all lowered their heads and thought, these grassland people have a difficult life, and they don't have any extra energy to think about things other than survival, and all the ideals and enthusiasm are just longings after they have eaten enough.

In the world, there are so many such people, and there is nothing to be done.

These students are learning the theory of the world, and now they understand that what people in the world care about most is the survival of the second son.

Not everyone has a family and country in their hearts, but in times of crisis, there are always people who are willing to pay for their family and country, which is the sublimation of human nature.

Reading thousands of books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, and this trip comes out with the emperor, and there is no wrong choice.

All of a sudden, the forces of all sides on the grassland were appointed, and the grassland was calm and secretly turbulent.

And Chu Jing's situation is becoming more and more tense.

Since the prince and the emperor set their goals, the various institutions of the imperial court have been in full swing, but it was only after the emperor left that the cool air on everyone's backs dissipated.

The prestige of the crown prince rises day by day, like the stars and the moon.

This position is sister-in-law, the sky is sinking, Xie Ling is raised little by little, and the prince has come out step by step.

Now that everyone is scattered all over the world, the prince is in the most important position, suppressing the overall situation, and everyone can do things with confidence.

King Ye wholeheartedly assisted the prince, everyone praised his virtue, and Princess Ye also accepted this result very plainly.

Everyone's eyes were focused on foreign enemies.

Even Hezhou pays attention to the movements of all parties from time to time.

Yi Ning was awkward for a while, concentrating on taking care of Emperor Chu with Concubine Qiong, and following Concubine Qiong to cultivate her self-cultivation.

Xie Yu led the Emperor's Mansion to help the prince, so that the pattern of the prince's control of the upper and lower levels was stabilized.

When such a situation was fully formed, everyone understood that the emperor left Xie Yu to take care of the emperor's mansion, not to maintain the rights of the emperor, but to maintain the balance of forces in the capital.

This daughter of Xie Shangshu's family is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Xie Yu is basically on call at any time under the prince, and in her spare time, only He Zhou, who is also with the prince, accompanies her, thinking of ways to make her happy and relieve pressure.

The relationship between the two is also getting closer.

Although Nan Qi had long been prepared not to participate in political affairs, now that King Ye had stabilized, he was no longer as deep in the center of the whirlpool as before.

But he still can't relax, Xie Ling and Tianshen had an accident, which has made it difficult for him to settle down, and his sister Yan ignored the dissuasion, and went to the grassland thousands of miles, Xiao Geyue and some sons of generals also went to the major military camps to train, and everyone seemed to be preparing for a major event.

And he decided to be a bystander, everyone is in danger, but he is still planning a suitable path for himself, trying to fulfill himself.

When Nan Qi was in pain, he still received a letter from the eldest princess.

He never thought that this was a heartless letter.

Is she in trouble? What the hell is going on?

Now they are gone, and there is no one to discuss.

He Zhou found a time to come to him for a drink, only to find that he was wrong, and when he asked, it turned out that the eldest prince wanted to cut off contact with him.

Nanqi wanted to go to her.

He Zhou said, "You still don't have to be impulsive, just like she said in her letter, she can't have a weakness now, after you go, you can only follow her incognito, and we can't help you, in case she is caught, then can she still have a good end?"

"You're saying she's going to give up on me to save herself? She's not that kind of person, and if she did, we wouldn't have this relationship. ”

"I don't know what kind of person she is, I just know that if you go now, you will be in danger, and she may also be implicated, so you better wait. ”

Nan Qi only felt that his heart was even more chaotic, the old promise was still vivid, but now everything has changed.

"Can I just wait? I just want to be there for her. ”

When He Zhou saw him like this, he said fiercely, "This is just your idea, you think that you are good for her to be by her side, how do you know what consequences this will have on her, your idea may be a burden to her?"

Nan Qi only felt that a basin of cold water was coming down, was he selfish?

"Now that the country of Chu is in turmoil, Xiao Yan'er insists on leaving Beijing regardless of the danger, Brother Xie's life and death are unknown, the border war is about to start, and the king of Yunnan is also going into battle, can you really let go of these?"
