Chapter 254: Back to the Border City
Xiao Yilin moved his arm, his eyes doted, and asked, "Did you sleep well?" ”
Jing Yi nodded, "It's not bad, you don't feel cold at all at night, you're like a big heater." ”
Xiao Yilin smiled happily when he heard this, he couldn't see his facial expression with a mask, he could only see his smiling eyes.
Then he leaned closer to Jing Yi and whispered in his ear: "I will be a stove for you in the future." ”
Jing Yi was also happy in her heart, and whispered: "Thank you." ”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and many words were silent.
Tuoba Liansheng has been secretly paying attention to Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi, and now seeing the actions of the two people, he feels that he has got the truth. This Xiao Yilin just likes men. This An Lehou is Xiao Yilin's friend.
It seems that this young man is also very affectionate towards Xiao Yilin, otherwise he would not risk his life to come to Xiao Yilin alone.
Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi both stood up, shook the sand on their bodies, and moved their legs and feet.
Xiao Yilin said to the others: "Now that the sandstorm has stopped, let's eat something and hurry on the road." Return to Langyue City one day earlier and rest assured one day earlier. ”
The group quickly ate some of the dried fish they had stored, drank some water, and fed the horses some of the forage they had collected from the oasis. The horses were fed before they could be taken on their way.
Everyone packed up and went on the road again, Xiao Yilin was still a horse with Jing Yi, the two of them walked in front, and Jing Yi showed everyone the way by the way.
Now except for Jing Yi, everyone else can't tell the direction clearly, so they can only follow Jing Yi's guidance.
They walked for another three days, and finally saw something other than the desert on the edge of the sky, which was a poplar tree growing on the edge of the desert.
Jing Yi pointed to the distance and said happily: "Brother Xiao, look, we have finally walked out of the desert." ”
Everyone cheered with joy as they saw the sight in the distance, and then everyone urged the horses to speed up their horses' movements.
The scenery in the distance was getting closer and closer, and gradually there were some wild grasses on the ground, and they also saw more and more trees and wild grasses in the distance, and they finally walked out of the desert alive.
After walking out of the desert for a distance, Xiao Yilin and the others found a place with more grass and stopped. Although people have eaten in the past few days, the horse's forage has been eaten, and now there is finally grass, Xiao Yilin and they got off the horse and let the horse eat some grass first.
By this time, it was autumn, and the grass had turned a little yellow. The weather in the Northland will soon cool down. It's already cold in the morning and evening.
Everyone also sat on the ground to eat something and take a break. When you go out of the desert, you don't need to save what you eat, you can eat it open. But there is not much to eat, that is, to cushion the stomach. On the way, they should be able to catch some game to eat. When you return to Langyue City, you can have a full meal.
After the horses were full, Xiao Yilin continued to hurry, in order to avoid encountering the remnants of the Northern Yan army, Xiao Yilin and they were very careful, and finally arrived at Langyue City two days later.
The soldiers standing at the head of the city and defending the city saw Xiao Yilin and them from a distance, and also saw the military uniforms of the Jin Kingdom they were wearing.
When everyone got closer, everyone finally saw Xiao Yilin clearly, and the soldiers at the head of the city shouted, "The marshal is back, the marshal is back." ”
Some soldiers hurriedly went to report to Yuan Zhenchuan and them.
When Xiao Yilin and the others arrived at the gate of Langyue City, Yuan Zhenchuan and other soldiers came out of the city to greet them.
Everyone knelt down in front of Xiao Yilin's horse, "Welcome His Highness back to the city." ”
Xiao Yilin waved his hand, "Everyone get up, let's go to the city." ”
When everyone heard this, they all got up and followed Xiao Yilin into the city.
Yuan Zhenchuan said beside him: "Your Highness, this time thanks to An Lehou for looking for you. We've sent no less than ten teams to look for you, but none of them have found you, and now there are two more teams that haven't returned. ”
Xiao Yilin said: "They went to me to take risks. It's too dangerous in the desert. The two teams that have not yet returned are probably more than lucky. If it weren't for An Lehou's thorough preparation and knowing how to identify the direction this time, we don't know if we would have come out alive.
But the adventure was worth it. Mo Kun was killed by me, and Tuoba Liansheng was captured by me. ”
Everyone was pleasantly surprised when they heard this, this Mo Kun died, and the eldest prince of Northern Yan was also captured by them, and it seems that this war will end soon.
Yuan Zhenchuan said: "Your Highness, you are the nemesis of Beiyan." These Mo Kun are dead, and the Great Prince of Beiyan has been captured by us, and it is estimated that they Beiyan will soon ask for a truce in peace talks. We will soon be able to return victorious. ”
Xiao Yilin nodded, "Then you guys should prepare first." And immediately sent a letter to the capital saying that I had returned, so as not to worry about the saints. Tuoba Liansheng, I will take him back to settle first. Let's go back and clean up first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow. ”
Yuan Zhenchuan said: "This road is tired, it is necessary to have a good rest. I will arrange everything, and tomorrow I will wait for you and An Lehou to receive the wind and vacuum. ”
Xiao Yilin took Jing Yi and Tuoba Liansheng and his own soldiers back to the Shuai Mansion in Langyue City.
In the past, Xiao Yilin lived in this handsome mansion when he was guarding the border pass. Although this marshal mansion is not as big as the palace in the capital, it is not small, and there are many courtyards, which should be there.
Xiao Yilin did not arrange Jingyi in the courtyard where he lived this time, but arranged it in the courtyard next to him.
Xiao Yilin felt that the little girl would soon recover as a daughter, and he had to think about the little girl's reputation. Xiao Yilin sent a few maids to serve Jingyi. There was no eunuch here, and he wouldn't send a man to serve the little girl.
As for Tuoba Liansheng, he also let people guard him, but he will ensure the treatment he deserves. After all, Tuoba Liansheng is the great prince of Northern Yan. He will have to use Tuoba Liansheng to negotiate conditions with Beiyan in the future.
Xiao Yilin asked the little girl to prepare bath water and clothes, and asked the kitchen to cook some delicious and restrained meals, and he and the little girl would eat together.
Xiao Yilin personally took Jing Yi to the courtyard where she lived, and after entering the room, Xiao Yilin said, "Jing Yan." You take a shower and change your clothes first, and we'll have dinner together later. ”
Jing Yi nodded, "Brother Xiao, you don't have to take care of me, you can hurry up and clean up." Especially your beard needs to be shaved. ”
Xiao Yilin touched the old beard that had grown on his face and said with a smile: "This beard really has to be shaved off, otherwise I will be much older." I'm so much older than you, so I'm not even older than you. Others will think I'm not worthy of you. ”
Jing Yi smiled: "Even if you are an uncle, I don't dislike you." Go clean up and we'll have dinner later. I'm starving. ”
Xiao Yilin smiled: "Okay, I'll see you later." ”
Jing Yi entered the room where she lived, and under the leadership of the maid, she entered the bathroom next to the bedroom, and hot water was already placed in the large bathtub. There are also several wooden barrels next to it, with cold water and hot water.
Jing Yi sent the maid to wash her hair and take a bath by herself.
