Jiaochu

The letter written by Ye Lingxi is still on the way, and there is a bloody fight in the north.

Beautiful flowers bloomed in the ice and snow, but they were the hot blood of the soldiers.

The smell of death filled the cold air, like shards of glass pricking people's faces. No one knew whether the sun would emerge from the clouds tomorrow, and whether they would survive until then.

The black unicorn swept across the battlefield with lightning speed. The oppression and fear brought by this name were like a sharp sword hanging over everyone's heads. It psychologically broke down some people's defenses, especially those who had just entered the battlefield. The new recruits on the battlefield saw the black shadow that came and went like a ghost in the wind and snow, and it was like seeing the King of Yama. They didn't even have time to scream, and their throats were sealed with a sword.

Yan Fei's first face-to-face confrontation with Black Qilin was three days after the attack was launched. The opponent was dressed in black armor and fully armed, with only a pair of eyes exposed, exuding a cold aura of death.

The armor looks very heavy, but the opponent is extremely fast.

Facing the rumored black unicorn for the first time, it would be a lie to say that he had no emotions at all. To be honest, he felt a little unsure, and he was at a disadvantage at first. He almost got a sword from the opponent that penetrated his shoulder blade. Quickly adjust his condition and fight with all his strength. The stronger the opponent is, the stronger his blood will be stimulated, and the more he fights, the braver he becomes.

When the reinforcements arrived, Yanfei was covered in wounds, and the black unicorn disappeared into the night like a ghost. When the military doctor came to bandage him, Ye Lingjue also came over and suggested that he return to the city to recuperate so as not to lose his life.

Yan Fei said nothing with a sullen face.

When the battle report arrived, Ye Lingjue left first.

After bandaging the wound, he took out two peace charms from under the pillow and put them in his arms, then put on his armor and went on a patrol.

It was night, and there was a loud thunder on the ground.

"Brother Yan!"

Ye Lingxi suddenly woke up and quickly touched the bracelet on her hand. She was relieved that it was not broken. When she looked out the window, her expression moved slightly. She stood up, put on her cloak and walked out.

Then Hehe and Lingdang also came out and saw a figure standing in the middle of the yard. They both breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that the person is still there.

Hehe went to the house and brought a hand stove to warm Ye Lingxi's hands. Lingdang asked what happened. She looked at the night sky without saying a word. The two of them also looked up at the sky. The stars and moon were without light, as if they were blocked by layers of dark clouds.

The bell said it was going to rain.

However, the dark clouds moved away, and the moonlight revealed a strange blush, which startled both Hehe and Lingdang. Ye Lingxi frowned and stared at the blush.

The dark clouds moved again, covering up the moonlight.

"Princess, why has the moon turned red? Did I see it wrong?" Lingdang couldn't believe what she saw with her eyes. She would rather believe that she was confused because she didn't wake up.

He He said: "I must have seen it wrong. How could the moon be red?" There was uneasiness and confusion in his voice.

Ye Lingxi looked away and turned back to the house, and the two of them immediately followed. She found a brocade box, opened it and took out a brocade pouch, which Xi Mu asked Saoxue to give to her in Linlang Pavilion when they first met. She said that she could open it when she thought about it clearly and had the answer in her mind.

She opened the brocade bag and saw a note inside. She took out the note and read it, then put the note into the incense burner and burned it. He He and Bell don't know why.

"I'm going to go to the south."

Hearing this sentence, the two of them were shocked. Ye Lingxi looked resolute and could not change. Lingdang said she would go too. Ye Lingxi said she would go alone and asked the two of them to stay, and told them not to mention this matter to anyone, including her mother and concubine.

The next day, Ye Lingxi first went to Si Tianjian, and then went to the imperial study room with Shangguan Yuan to pray for the soldiers on the front line.

Ye Lanchen had no objection to Shangguan Yuan praying for blessings, but he did not agree with Ye Lingxi also going to retreat. Shangguan Yuan said some reasons. In summary, Ye Lingxi had good horoscopes and was a princess with golden branches and jade leaves. Praying for blessings would get twice the result with half the effort.

Ye Lingxi knelt on the ground and begged. If he didn't agree, he would have to kneel down for a long time. Ye Lanchen didn't know who was following this stubborn temper. He asked how long he would be in seclusion. Shangguan Yuan counted with his fingers and replied. One month.

Ye Lanchen thought about it again and again, and finally decided, leaving Shangguan Yuan to talk alone for a while. After Shangguan Yuan came out, he said to Ye Lingxi: "Weichen really offended the emperor this time. The emperor thought it was the princess who was instigated by Weichen." She comforted, "When the battle is won, my father will definitely be richly rewarded." Shangguan Yuandao said, "Has the princess really decided?" She nodded.

At noon, she asked Ling Dang to find Xiao Anzi, saying that she would go into seclusion to pray for blessings, and gave Xiao Anzi some instructions. Xiao Anzi advised her not to be impulsive and to think twice. If the prayers didn't work, she might get burned. She had made up her mind. Seeing that she could not be persuaded, Xiao Anzi took out a peace charm from his sleeve and handed it to her, saying, "The slave made this by himself. Please don't dislike it. The last time the princess was sick, the slave made it, but the slave knew it." Because of my low status, I have never dared to give it to the princess. Now the princess is praying for the frontline soldiers. This is a great act of kindness, and I want to do my part." She accepted the peace charm.

In the evening, she came to bid farewell to her mother-in-law, and then went to talk to Ye Jinnian for a long time. The little guy seemed to know that she was leaving. He looked at her with a pair of dark eyes and stretched out his hand for her to hug. This little guy usually All the time I fell asleep.

……

The next day, Hehe and Lingdang took Ye Lingxi to Sitianjian with their luggage. After the master and servant said goodbye, they watched Ye Lingxi enter the building. The door of Sitianjian was closed. Lingdang couldn't hold it back for a moment and squatted down. After crying on the ground, Hehe also wiped his tears with a handkerchief and persuaded Lingdang not to cry. A month later, the princess came back.

Neither of them mentioned anything about the southern border to anyone.

But both of them were very strange. There was obviously a war in the north, so why did Ye Lingxi go to the south?

When it was getting dark, a carriage was still speeding on the road. The dusk light flickered the last light among the trees, and disappeared on the horizon after a while.

The driver was a "young man", about fourteen or fifteen years old, with handsome features and clear and determined eyes. He was none other than Ye Lingxi, who was disguised as a man.

The person sitting in the carriage was none other than Shangguan Yuan.

She originally planned to go alone, and if she works hard, she should arrive in the next four or five days, but the other person insists on coming together. If she doesn't agree, she will talk to her father about praying again.

So, the two of them hit the road together.

In order to keep their whereabouts secret, the two did not hire a driver.

Shangguan Yuan was originally driving the carriage, but the speed was a bit leisurely, so Ye Lingxi took over and directly increased the speed by more than twice.

"Princess, I think it's getting late, so we should find an inn to stay first." Shangguan Yuan's calm voice came from the carriage.
