"The side courtyard is fluttering, and the boundless realm is even more vast."

Heavy snow for several days, inside and outside Xiliang City, covered in silver makeup, vast and indescribable. On the official road outside the east 'gate', a convoy of trains is traveling. In the middle of the procession, a carriage heavily guarded, carved lacquered vermilion, embroidered beaded curtains, although the body of the car is quite dusty, as if it has experienced a long journey, but it is still difficult to hide the image of wealth.

Outside the city, a few pedestrians who were struggling to travel against the wind and snow saw it, and they all cast curious and surprised eyes.

However, in the team a little far away from the carriage, among the two horses surrounded by the unobtrusive "guards", a crisp voice like a yellow warbler suddenly came out, Gu Rouzhang, who was dressed in men's clothes and covered with a "colored" face scarf, controlled the reins with one hand, rested the horsewhip on the mane 'hair', spread his hand to catch a snow 'flower', and said with emotion, "I didn't learn very well, and the predecessors 'chanted' oh Biansai's poems also remember these two sentences." At that time, I was curious about the so-called boundless boundlessness, what kind of vast method is it? When I arrived at my grandfather's place in Youzhou, I thought that the ice and snow in Youzhou were already very lonely. But along the way, there are often no traces for days or even half a month, and only then do you know what the so-called absolute domain is; Seeing the ice and snow on this road again, I know what it means to be vast. ”

Wei Changying, who was also dressed as a man and covered his face with a Xuan 'color' scarf, sighed lightly and said, "When I left Beijing before, I was really reluctant to be light. At the beginning of the road, I thought the road was not very difficult to walk, there was a carriage in the horizontal and vertical, I held him all the way, how many bumps can I bear? However, since I left Gyeonggi, I realized how wise my mother-in-law is! Along the way, even I feel that I can't stand it, if I really bring Guang'er with me, I really don't know if I should send Guang'er back to the imperial capital at that time, or should I take the risk of taking him on my way? ”

In the end, he hasn't started a family yet, Gu Rouzhang is relaxed, not like Wei Changying: he was worried about his husband when he was in the imperial capital, and he was about to meet his husband, and he was worried about his son...... Along the way, the first half of the guard Changying was worried about Shen Zangfeng every day, but nothing would happen to him; In the second half, he said that Shen Shuguang was going to have a good time in the imperial capital, and the people who accompanied him were almost calloused.

Because they have been together all the way, they are familiar with each other a lot, Gu Rouzhang joked with her and said, "Sister Wei, you have been talking about this for half a while, and now Brother-in-law Wei is in Xiliang City in front of you, can't you distract your mind?" It is impossible for Mrs. Hengzhu Su to treat her grandchildren badly, you like children so much, it is better to ...... Gave birth to one with Brother-in-law Wei in Xiliang? ”

"Sister Gu, you have this mouth!" Although she said that she had become a mother, she was ridiculed by Gu Rouzhang in front of the 'guards' in front of her, and even in the corner of her eyes in the wind and snow, you could see several 'guards' turning their faces slightly sideways - obviously smiling, under the face towel, Wei Changying still blushed, and said angrily, "What are you talking about!" I see that you are thinking about Biansai all the way, isn't it just a drop by to visit the two Gu Gongzi, and you want to pick a husband who is talented and good-looking? ”

Gu Rouzhang actually nodded, and said seriously: "If there is really someone here who can get into my eyes, why not get married?" When the time comes, I will go into battle with him to kill the enemy, even if I die on the battlefield, I am willing, maybe there is still the possibility of achieving a good story for the ages! ”

"Sister Gu, you're talking nonsense again! Xu is about to see the two Gu Gongzi, you are too happy in your heart. Wei Changying had to stop her—although she didn't bring this master to Xiliang, but ran away, and she also had a brother and a clan brother in Xiliang. However, now that neither Gu Yiran nor Gu Xinian have seen her, Wei Changying can't help but take some responsibility for her, lest Miss Gu, who has been more and more open-mouthed since she entered the Xiliang Realm and is not afraid that the Gu family will send someone to arrest her back, has become more and more out of proportion, and what rumors have spread out of control...... In the end, it is not good to 'hand' the Gu family.

Gu Rouzhang was about to speak, when a 'waiter' guard leader rode in from the outer circle and announced: "The fourth prince Daoxi Liangcheng is already in front of him, and the wind and snow are getting worse, so please ask the young lady and Miss Gu to go back to the carriage and prepare to enter the city." ”

It is thousands of miles away from the imperial capital to Xiliangcheng, and the people who come to trek through mountains and rivers along the way, no matter how good the carriage is, the bones of the people who sit down on this road are about to fall apart. Especially the season of their westward journey is unfortunate, it is from autumn to winter - the so-called Hu Tian is snowing in August, and it will be September when he leaves, you can imagine the difficulties on this road, otherwise Wei Changying would not be glad that he did not forcibly bring Shen Shuguang.

Therefore, although Wei Changying and Gu Rouzhang are all beautiful girls, they can't stand it halfway, they believe that they have learned martial arts, and after practicing riding for a few days, they let the 'girl' take the robes that were originally brought to Shen Zangfeng, Gu Xinian and others, change each of them into a set of men's clothes, and ride a horse from time to time to adjust.

Today, because they knew that they could arrive in Xiliang City early in the morning, the two of them were in a good mood, and they had been riding on horses since the morning, so as not to be blocked by the team of people surrounding the carriage in the carriage, and they could not see Xiliang City for the first time.

This meeting was full of interest, and suddenly heard the 'waiter' guard pass Shen Zanghui's words and reminded him, so he saved the team and was not far from the 'gate' of Xiliang City. There may be people in front of the city gate...... Don't lose decency. They all turned their horses' heads and came to the side of the carriage, because both of them were agile men, and there was no need for the carriage to stop, one left and one right, and the coachman gave up some position, and jumped directly from the saddle to the wheel.

Gu Rouzhang stretched out his hand to open the car curtain, but Wei Changying took the first step to hold down, buttoned the curtain first, and said in a loud voice: "Sister Deng family, we are coming in, do you go behind the screen to avoid the wind?" ”

I heard a young woman's slightly hoarse voice coming from the car, and said: "Thank you two sisters for your kindness, I just asked someone to take the fox fur, this will be put on, you come in." ”

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Wei Changying and Gu Rouzhang entered one after the other, although both of them moved quickly, but there was still a gust of wind carrying the snow in, blowing the melted 'spring' meaning from the charcoal basin inside, and it was cold for a while.

Deng Wanwan, who was sitting in the innermost, squinted her eyes slightly, and the white fox fur she was holding was like a pile of snow, which was extremely warm when she looked at it, but she couldn't help coughing a few times when she was pounced by the wind and snow. Wei Changying hurriedly called Zhu Yan, who was guarding the 'door': "Quickly press the curtain." ”

Zhu Yan hurriedly said: "It's already pressed." ”

"Ahem...... Cough...... Thank you Sister Wei, my body is really useless, I stay in the carriage every day, and I actually feel the cold. However, the two elder sisters have to go outside every day to ride a horse for a while, and they are getting better and healthier. Deng Wanwan covered his 'lips' with a handkerchief, coughed a few times, and smiled.

Gu Rouzhang said bluntly: "If you stay in this carriage all day, you will get sick." It's easier to go out for a walk, but it's a pity that you are too timid to learn to ride a horse...... Fortunately, I'm about to enter Xiliang City, and I'll take you around when I turn around, and I'll be fine soon. ”

Wei Changying smiled and said, "Do you still need to go around?" Didn't you forget that there is still a person lying behind the screen, which certainly surprised us along the way, but after getting out of the car, the idea of bending is a little wind and cold, and what you say is also hand-to-hand to get rid of the disease! ”

The three of them all laughed, for no other reason: lying behind the screen was the only disciple of the famous doctor Ji Qu in the sea, Duanmu Xinmiao. The eighth lady of the Duanmu family is not only lying behind the screen, but actually lying down after leaving Gyeonggi...... For the sake of it, no one expected that she would be seasick.

At the beginning, Duanmu Xinmiao still relied on his identity as a doctor, and took 'medicine' to suppress it 'privately' so that others would not see it. But the farther away from the imperial capital, the more difficult the road became, and the more bumpy the carriage became. Finally, one day, Duanmu Xinmiao couldn't bear it, and vomited in the car, and after vomiting, he was really dying-scared Wei Changying hurriedly sent someone to tell Shen Zanghui, and stopped marching for a day to let her rest.

Originally, Wei Changying was a little afraid to take her and continue to go, but Duanmu Xinmiao didn't know whether it was annoyance or other reasons, so she was very persistent. After all, he is a disciple of Ji Quai, and although motion sickness is uncomfortable, Duanmu Xinmiao is not completely helpless. It's just that this method was unwilling to use it in order to hide people's eyes and ears, and now that everyone knows about it, she no longer cares about any face...... Directly take a dose of soothing soup 'medicine', well, fall asleep.

So, the emperor didn't say that he was majestic, how could he be the master who didn't dare to offend up and down, and even Queen Gu was the only descendant of the divine doctor who smiled when she saw it, so he slept all the way to Xiliang.

On the contrary, looking at the delicate and timid, the body is also delicate and weak, and Deng Wanwan, who was either cold or coughing along the way, persevered, although he did not dare to go to learn to ride a horse with Wei Changying and Gu Rouzhang, but leaning against the car window, he also watched thousands of rivers and mountains trekking under his feet.

…… Speaking of why Wei Changying brought these three to the westward this time, it is also a long story:

After the news of Xiliang's victory and Qiudi's Dadan Yu Mushuer's almost death reached the imperial capital, the saint was really overjoyed. It's just that...... Then the saint scolded the person who reported the victory: "There are a total of four original imperial 'attendants' who went to Xiliang, why are there only one person in the good news now, Shen Zangfeng and Shen Youjia, the general of Xiliang?" ”

The person who reported the victory explained: "Because this great victory is all because Captain Shen did not hesitate to use himself as bait and worked with Captain Shen to deal with it." The two Lieutenants Gu and Lieutenant Deng were stationed elsewhere and did not participate. ”

When the saint heard this, he said slowly: "That's fine...... The 'attendants' who went to Donghu before were all injured very lightly, and my heart was very painful. Then the saint didn't say anything, but rewarded him according to the rules...... But when these words spread, there were rumors in the imperial capital, saying that in order to let Shen Zangfeng monopolize the credit, the Shen family not only erased the credit of Gu Yiran, Gu Xinian, and Deng Zongqi in the victory, but even concealed the news of their injuries......

When the news spread, the attitude of each family was ambiguous, the imperial capital Gu family was calm, and the Rongcheng Deng family didn't care much about Deng Zongqi's life or death, so the two families who could call the shots refuted the rumors - but Deng Wanwan, who had always relied on his brother, was not at ease and found Deng Guifei to ask.

The concubine didn't know whether the news was true or not, so she asked the meaning of the saint 'privately', so she asked Yao Tao to go to the Shen family to discuss with the Shen family, wanting Deng Wanwan to go to Xiliang with Wei Changying, on the grounds that she was visiting her brother.

The Shen family knew that this was most likely because the saint was not at ease, and wanted Wei Changying to bring an eyeliner. However, the 'daughter' of a family who is not valued by the family goes to the Shen family's mulberry land, and she can't be stopped, and the Shen family doesn't want to 'mix'. So I readily agreed...... As a result, Deng Guifei suggested "kindly": Since Shen Zangfeng's injury was not light, and Ji Qu was sick and went to Fengzhou again, why not ask Duanmu Xinmiao to go to Xiliang with him?

Duanmu Xinmiao is not only the 'daughter' of the valve reading, but also the only successor of the first doctor in the country. The Shen family can let Deng Wanwan have an accident in Xiliang lightly, this master can't move casually...... Not to mention that she is afraid of the revenge of the people behind her, just say that her 'private' and 'friendship' with Wei Changying will not be easily extinguished. And Duanmu Xinmiao's most important sister Queen Mother Cai and nephew King Cai are in the imperial capital, so they are not afraid that she will be disobedient.

The Shen family sent Shen Zanghui to escort her sister-in-law to the west, and by the way, she brought these two companions - as a result, the carriage had not yet left Gyeonggi, and Gu Rouzhang, who had long been impatient to stay in the house to learn the rules, actually managed to 'female' disguise herself as a man and secretly caught up - she was not worried about her brothers, but was purely idle and bored, and wanted to go to Xiliang to have a good time.

Wei Changying sent people to send her back several times, but she rode a thousand-mile horse given to her by her grandfather, which was not even as good as Shen Zanghui's mount. If she chases her, she will run, and if she does not chase her, she will follow. There are many carriages and horses in Hengzhi Changying and his party, and it is impossible to leave the road, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to find traces.

After so many times, Wei Changying and his entourage were worried about the injuries of Xiliang's relatives, and they didn't dare to delay Chenguang, thinking that since they couldn't send her back, they asked her to hang behind her, in case something happened...... It's better to invite her into the carriage with 'sex'!

So, such a team of people was formed.
