Vol 3 Chapter 18: Arrived in Yanbei (two shifts)

As Su Fengnuan expected, after late autumn, Yanbei had its first snow.
This year’s snow came earlier than in previous years.
Snow covered the city of Yanbei, covered the scorched mountains and vegetation of Fengkou Mountain, covered the Heishui River, and covered the entire boundary of Yanbei.
Fortunately, Xu Yunchu brought 30,000 soldiers and horses to work day and night, and prepared in advance the dry wood reserves for the people in Yanbei City for the winter. Su Zhen rushed to repair most of Yanbei City with troops and horses, and restored Yanbei City to its former appearance, with only a few follow-up improvements.
And Su Fengnuan's things are much more trivial, if the big and small things are counted as mountains, she would only shovel a half of the mountains. There are more than half of the things to be done, but the most important things are done ahead of time, and the rest will not be delayed even if it snows.
The 200,000 Jinglu soldiers and horses sent by the emperor also rushed to Yanbei on the day it snowed.
Su Zhen had long heard that Su Fengnuan said that Ye Chang asked the emperor to let Su Che reinvigorate the western border, and then dispatched 200,000 soldiers to Yanbei to practice. The emperor should have done both of these two major events. It can be seen that the words of Ye Shizi from the Rong'an Palace are very important to the emperor. At the same time, it also shows that Ye Shizi is not as clumsy as the rumors say. He expected to see Ye Chang a little bit more in his heart, thinking about Yan Bei. , He must go to Beijing to see this Ye Shizi from the Rong'an Palace.
Because of early preparations, 200,000 Jinglu arrived in Yanbei, they were immediately resettled.
When the Jinglu soldiers arrived in Yanbei, Xu Yunchu should also return to Beijing with the emperor's Yulin army. Although the snow is heavy, most of the first snow in winter cannot survive. Once the snow stops and the sun comes out, it will melt immediately.
According to Su Zhen's intention, Xu Yunchu waited until the snow stopped before leaving. Xu Yunchu meant that even if the snow didn't stop, he would leave in the snow the next morning. Today, only the Yanbei boundary is snowing, and after the Yanbei boundary, there is no snow. Although the snow is heavy, it will not delay the journey. In particular, the emperor sent 200,000 soldiers and horses to Beijing. Now there are only 70,000 soldiers and horses in Beijing, plus the imperial guards and five city soldiers and horses, which is less than one hundred thousand. There has never been such a small number of soldiers in Beijing. Once the caring person took advantage of the emptiness of the soldiers and horses in the capital to make chaos, fearing that it would be another crisis, he decided to immediately take the Yulin Army to return to Beijing.
Su Zhen also felt reasonable about matters concerning the country, and naturally did not dare to leave Xu Yunchu.
That evening, the banquet held at Yanbei Palace was also the first banquet held since Xu Yunchu came, and it was also a farewell banquet when he left the next day.
After King Yanbei got well, he also attended the farewell banquet.
King Yanbei, Su Zhen, and everyone in the Yanbei Prince’s Mansion all had a good impression of this little uncle who had experienced the same life and death with them. If it hadn’t been known that the person the lady liked was Ye Shizi from Rong’an Palace, they all I deeply feel that this uncle Xiaoguo is a good candidate, with a good family background, talents and appearance.
But what the eldest lady likes is Ye Shizi of Rong'an Prince's Mansion. Although not everyone knows, but people close to them now know. Naturally, no one mentioned any more about matching the eldest lady and this little uncle.
However, no one mentioned that the small princess should be matched to the small country uncle.
People in the Yanbei Palace knew that Su Sixuan was spoiled. Although she was not arrogant and domineering, she was as innocent as a child. Xu Yunchu came to Yanbei in these days. Whether it was talent, strategy, ability, and dealing with people, everything was revealed. Thorough and good education.
In terms of Su Fengnuan, they all felt that Xiao Guoji could be worthy of their eldest lady. Whether it was the Yanbei Prince's Mansion or the Capital Su General's Mansion, it was not bad for the Guozhang Mansion. But if it is about the small princess, the Yanbei Su family's family background is not bad for the Guozhangfu, but in terms of people, the small princess is really not suitable for other people's Xiaoguo uncle. Especially after the government's mansion has gone out twice, strict rules are well known in the world.
Su Sixuan was beaten by Su Fengnuan, and her heart that was so hot that jumped out earlier seemed to have been splashed by cold water and then another snow fell in the cold, just like the snow in Yanbei, it was sealed. , Now it can't heat up anymore.
Although she was infrequent and spoiled, but the blood of Yanbeisu's family was in her bones. The Yanbei Palace cannot be said to be unruly, but the rules are also unruly compared to the capital. What she fears most is being kept by the rules. Therefore, a spring heart stopped.
I have to say that Su Feng Nuan pinched the fire extinguishing seedlings in time, or that Su Si Xuan's careful liver trusts Su Feng Nuan very much, and thinks she is right, and even more afraid that she will be thrown away after hitting the south wall. The wolf valley feeds the wolves. She has seen how Qiuhua's wolves tear apart the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. She felt it was too terrifying.
She liked Uncle Xiaoguo to the point that she was fed a wolf, but she felt that it was not worth it, so she just let it go.
After all, she is a child's disposition, and she let it go when she said she let it go.
She used to like to stick to Su Fengnuan the most. As long as Su Fengnuan is in the Yanbei Palace, she always surrounds her. Now she knows that Yanbei has many things to do after the war. Su Fengnuan is still handling everything in Yanbei with injuries. , She didn't dare to stick to her anymore, so together with Qiu Hua, she did little things within her capacity.
In addition to controlling wolves, Qiuhua also likes to cook, so Su Sixuan also became interested in cooking. With Qiuhua every day, he manages the kitchen and arranges meals for everyone in the Yanbei Palace, especially Su Fengnuan. , Xu Yunchu, Statement, Su Zhen and other people with wounds.
Due to the proper arrangement of medicinal meals for the two, although several people were extremely tired in the past few days, they have not recovered their injuries, but their injuries have not worsened and are slowly recovering.
The farewell banquet for Xu Yunchu that day was prepared by Qiu Hua and Su Sixuan. It was full of flavors, fragrances, and appetite for everyone.
Xu Yun's injury was not serious at first, but now he has recovered in a few days. Under the advice of King Yanbei and Su Zhen, he drank a few more glasses.
After the banquet, Su Fengnuan set up a warm tent in Mongjiao Tower and invited Xu Yunchu to play chess. By the way, the two discussed some more about the food, grass, and army salaries for the war in the West.
Statement to accompany.
A stove was set up in the warm tent, stating that a pot of jujube tea was boiled, while watching the jujube tea not overflow the lid, watching the two play chess, and listening to the two people’s talk about how to calculate the civil and military ministers and the Nanqi The wealthy officials and gentry in China asked them to donate food and grass to help the war in the West.
He listened with gusto, and occasionally inserted a sentence, while secretly admiring the two of them, instinctively following Su Fengnuan's side really benefited a lot, and he was even more impressed with Xu Yunchu.
The chess game was played late at night, the snow covered the warm tent, the two negotiated properly, and the conversation was nearing an end.
Su Fengnuan smiled and said to Xu Yunchu, "The snow scene in Yanbei is amazing, but unfortunately the soldiers and horses in Beijing are empty. You have to go back as soon as possible, otherwise you can enjoy the snow scene in Yanbei."
Xu Yunchu smiled slightly and said, "Let’s look for opportunities in the future! This trip to Yanbei has also benefited a lot. The people of Yanbei are simple and honest, with one mind, the military and the civilians, the old prince and the son have a good way to govern Yanbei, plus you Support, Yanbei can recover in a few years. When I am free, I will look at the snow scene of Yanbei again."
Su Fengnuan smiled and nodded, and sighed softly, "It's a long way to say it." After the words came, "Yanbei is a long way from Beijing. Take care when you return to Beijing."
Xu Yunchu nodded and asked her, "When do you expect to return to Yanbei?"
Su Fengnuan thought for a while and said, "At least..."
Before she finished her words, a mansion guard rushed downstairs in Mongjiao, with an anxious and loud voice, "Report! Miss! A group of people came from outside the city gate, calling them Ye Shizi, Prince Rong'an!"
"What?" Su Feng stood up warmly, opened the warm tent, looked down from the upper floor of Wangjiao, and asked the mansion guard, "What did you say?"
The mansion guard repeated it again, "A group of people came from outside the city gate, calling them Ye Shizi of the Royal Palace of Rong'an! Because none of the city guards have seen Ye Shizi, I have come to report to Miss Ye."
Xu Yunchu was also stunned at this time.
The statement was even more shocking. The teapot in his hand was almost thrown away, and he stood up and got out of the warm tent. He supported the railing of Mongjiao Building and looked down and asked, "You said Ye Chang is here? At this time? It's definitely Rong An. The carriage of the palace?"
Nafu Wei said, "I'm not sure, so I came to tell the eldest lady."
Su Fengnuan glanced at the sky, it was late at night, the snow was heavy, and he wondered if Ye Chang had come to Yanbei? Yes, the letter she sent him has not been answered yet. With his temperament, it is estimated that he has reached the limit and can't sit still and come to Yanbei. She immediately got off the Mongjiao Tower. Because of her injury, she couldn't use light work, so she carried her skirt and ran to the gate of the mansion. As she ran, she ordered, "Get my horse ready."
"Yes!" Fu Wei hurriedly responded, and quickly went to the stable to lead the horse.
The statement also rushed down the Mongjiao Tower. When he got down the Mongjiao Tower, Su Fengnuan was already running out of sight. He thought to herself that Miss Su's injury was not healed? Sure enough, people with martial arts are better than those without martial arts, and they can't even run, so he immediately looked back at Xu Yunchu.
Xu Yunchu naturally went down to the Mongjiao Tower, and smiled at the statement and said, "In all likelihood, Ye Shizi really came. You and I will also go to the city gate to see and welcome him by the way."
The statement nodded, and the two walked outside the house together.
The government guard brought the horse from the stable, Su Fengnuan turned on his horse and flew out of the Yanbei Palace.
The news that Ye Shizi from the Rong'an Palace arrived late at night naturally shocked King Yanbei and King Yanbei's son Su Zhen. The old prince could not help getting up late at night, and following Su Zhen, after Su Fengnuan, he went straight to the city. door.
