When night falls, the army camps stationed outside the city are lit with torches, and the stars are dotted with them, which is also a sight to behold in this desolate suburb. Looking down from the height of the tower, all he saw was the light of the fires.

"Tonight, the general will work hard to defend the city, it is unclear whether Qinshui is an enemy or a friend, and the remnants of Xiliang have not yet been extinguished, tonight will be a crucial night, and I hope that the general will cheer up, don't slack off, if there is a war, you can cut it first." Gu Zhen arranged Zhifeng Dao.

"The minister commanded, please rest assured that with my He Feng, I will definitely guard the key road of the Gusu country and prevent other countries from attacking." Zhifeng's popular name is He Feng, and now that he is still popular, he naturally uses his original name.

"If my father trusted you so much, I would not have destroyed the country." Gu Zhen sighed, remembering the past of destroying the country many years ago, and his heart was still painful.

As a member of the royal family, even if it is a woman, she has to take on the responsibility of recovering the country, and now that she finally sees the hope of success, she will never allow herself to slack off. Even if everything she is doing now will only make her and An Yanzhe go further and further, she can only continue to move forward.

In the camp on the other side, An Yanzhe inspected the camp under the leadership of the adjutant general. The knife he raised for the lonely man, and he didn't know if it would end up on her.

"Is there any movement from the people of the Lonely Soviet Country?" An Yanzhe asked while inspecting.

"Not yet." Ah Cheng replied.

"Those who have arranged for the night patrol must not let up for a moment. Send some more sentries to hold them close. An Yanzhe ordered.

"Yes." Ah Cheng replied, hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Will the people of the Lonely Su Kingdom really attack us at night?"

An Yanzhe was silent for a while, and replied, "If she is still the one I know, she won't." But now I'm not sure. ”

Gu Zhen's concealment and deception made An Yanzhe's heart that was originally open to her close instantly, and it is unknown whether it will be opened in the future and in what way.

"Report." A junior soldier came to report.

"Say." An Yanzhe said.

"Wine and food were brought from the city of Gusu State, saying that it was to comfort the officers and soldiers of our army......," the soldier reported.

Before he could finish speaking, An Yanzhe said: "Go back, what Gu Su sent, no matter what it is, you can't accept it."

"Yes." The soldier took the order and left.

"If you really want to treat us, why rob the city we have worked so hard to capture." Ah Cheng said, scoffing at these tricks.

"The person sent to ask for the emperor's order, is there any news?" An Yanzhe asked.

"Not yet, there will be news the day after tomorrow at the latest." Ah Cheng replied.

"Inform me as soon as there is news, before that, no one can act rashly, every move we make now may lead to war between the two countries, so be extra careful." An Yanzhe said again.

"Yes." The lieutenants replied at the same time.

In the middle of the night, several black-clothed people quietly set off from the camp and went to the city of Gusu without stopping, their figures blended with the night, and it was difficult to distinguish. When they reached the outside of the city, they threw the rope towards the tower, the iron grip at the top of the rope was firmly stuck on the city wall, and the men in black below climbed up the tower along the rope and killed the guards cleanly. There were about ten people in black, all of whom stretched out their hands, but they didn't know what their intentions were.

Several people successfully went up to the castle tower, and were about to continue to sneak in, when the originally dark castle tower suddenly became brightly lit, and many archers appeared out of nowhere where where the original defense was lax, holding bows and arrows at them.

He Feng stood in the middle of the soldiers and ordered, "Take it."

The next day, as soon as An Yanzhe got up, he heard Ah Cheng's report: "Last night, a small group of soldiers sneaked into the Gusu City Tower and were caught red-handed."

An Yanzhe, who was washing his face, threw the towel into the basin angrily when he heard this, and asked, "Who allowed them to go?"

"It seems that the soldiers are angry that the city they have worked so hard to be occupied by others first, so they want to teach them a lesson." Ah Cheng replied.

"It's stupid." An Yanzhe said, "Immediately send a military advisor to the country of Gusu to discuss this matter." ”

"The military division of the An family army was ordered by the commander to come to see the princess." Gu Zheng received a report that said.

"Is it only the military advisor? What about the main general? Gu Zhen asked.

"Only the military advisor came." The subordinate replied.

Gu Zhen smiled bitterly, and said to himself: "I thought that if he detained his soldiers, he would come to see me, but in the end he didn't come."

"Tell the military advisor that we will send those ten soldiers back intact, but if there is a next time, we will not spare it." Gu Zhen said.

Two days later, An Jiajun received an order from the emperor to return to the court. And An Yanzhe has not seen each other since the last time he met Gu Zhen in a hurry on the city tower.

"Ah Zhe, have you seen Zhifeng? How is he? Are you okay? An Yanyue heard that her brother was back, so she waited outside the gate of the mansion early, and the first question she asked when she saw him was indeed Zhifeng.

"I'm still alive, but in the future, I'm probably going to die." An Yanzhe said coldly, then took a wooden box from the guards and went back to the study.

Back in the study, the furnishings in the room are still the same, but the portrait of Su Li that he painted by himself is missing. Closing the door, he opened the wooden box, which contained some picture scrolls. He opened the scrolls one by one and hung them back in his study.

Although he has been fighting abroad in recent days, he has never forgotten to miss Su Li. Before, looking at these portraits, he could only think of and would only think of Su Li. Now, looking at these portraits, do you think of other people?

"It's been almost a year, how are you doing over there? Are you cured? Are you happy with Yu Fei? An Yanzhe sat on the ground decadently, leaning on the desk behind him, looking at the paintings with his eyes, holding wine in his hand, drinking glass after glass.

"I've been not doing well lately." An Yanzhe said again, and then smiled self-deprecatingly: "But I deserve it."

The effect of alcohol, coupled with the fatigue of days of traveling, An Yanzhe fell asleep unconsciously.

On the banks of the White Nile, a dilapidated boat docked to the side, drifting in the wind. Not far from the boat, a man and a woman sat on the shore.

"How long have I been sick?" Su Li asked.

"Hmm...... Probably, a year or so. Yu Fei replied.

"That's true, it's been a long time since I've been here." Su Li sighed.

"Why do you want to be here all of a sudden?" Yu Fei asked.

Su Li smiled and said, "I made an appointment before, and I came to see him once a year."

"Do you still have an appointment with my rival like that? Alas~ It's really unpleasant. Yu Fei pretended to be jealous and said.

"I only come once a year, don't be so stingy." Su Li said coquettishly.

Yu Fei doted on Su Li's head and said, "You know, who made him have no friends?" You are allowed to visit once a year. ”

"Is he really dead, though?" Su Li asked hesitantly.

"Falling from such a high altitude, and with gunshot wounds, there is almost no chance of survival. What's more, I also sent someone to look for him at that time, but I really didn't find him. Yu Fei replied.

"But then, I seem to have seen him." Su Li said.

"Have you seen him? Where is it? Yu Fei asked in surprise.

Su Li thought about it carefully and said, "It seems to be in the hospital, it should be the time when I was sick, he came to see me."

"Impossible, are you mistaken?" Yu Fei asked.

"I don't remember exactly, but he spoke to me clearly." Su Li said, vaguely thinking of some images of An Yanzhe when he came to him.

"What did you say?" Yu Fei asked.

"Say that he lives in another world, and say that I and you live happily...... Something like that. Su Li said, because her memory was too vague, she couldn't remember the specific content.

After listening to Su Li's words, Yu Fei smiled and said, "Then thanks to his auspicious words, now you and I can really live happily."

"If only he were really alive, no matter what kind of place he lives, just be alive." Su Li said, looking at the calm water.

"Maybe it's still alive, trying to live somewhere, thinking of someone." Yu Fei said quietly, and there seemed to be some deep meaning in his words.

"Anyway, we'll come to see him once a year and bring his favorite wine." Su Li said.

"Then from this time on, I will toast my rival with a glass of wine." Yu Fei said, picked up the red wine beside him, and sprinkled it on the ground.

The moon unconsciously tilted, and there was no sound around except the chirping of cicadas in summer. Silver-gray moonlight poured into An Yanzhe's study through the window, shining on his white face.

An Yanzhe was woken up by the sound of cicadas, and it was only until what he saw just now was just a dream.

"If only it was really the same as in my dreams, it would be great." An Yanzhe sighed.

Waking up in the middle of the night is the most annoying, and it is difficult to fall asleep for a short time. Because of that dream, An Yanzhe's heart couldn't calm down for a long time, so he simply got dressed and went to Qinghe for a walk.

On summer nights, the breeze brings coolness on the water, and the person who blows it is very comfortable. It's late at night, there is no one by the river, and it is very casual to walk by yourself, there is no bustling crowd, no noisy sound, only the sound of cicadas and isolated shadows, which has a charm.

The sound of cicadas is obviously very noisy, but after listening to it for a long time, there is a different kind of tranquility, which makes An Yanzhe get rid of his troubles and distractions and walk quietly by the river.

I don't know how long I walked, and I don't know how far I walked, but when An Yanzhe came back to his senses, he found that he was listening to a dilapidated wooden boat. Not far away, there was a bottle of red wine, and the appearance and variety of red wine were absolutely impossible to appear in ancient times.

"This, it turned out to be ......" An Yanzhe picked up the red wine on the ground, picked it up and looked at it, it turned out to be the red wine he often drank in modern times, and it was also the wine that Su Li and Yu Fei took when they worshiped him in a dream just now.

"It's unbelievable that this wine can't be here, how it can be here." An Yanzhe sighed, originally he thought that he had inadvertently returned to the White Nile, but looking at the environment, it was still the same as in ancient times. So why did this wine come back here? It's incredible.
