The fifth princess knew what the queen meant and laughed, "My brother is safe, so my cousin and cousin's wife are also safe. What's more, my cousin's wife's title has the word 'safe' in it, so she will definitely be protected because of it."

At the border, the people who worried the queen the most, besides Qin Peiyou, were He Yanxiu and Su Yujin.

Seeing the Fifth Princess comforting her, the Queen smiled and nodded, "I hope so."

"By the way, I heard that Miss Su has returned to the capital. I wonder if she will be free these days. Can you come to the palace and talk to me?"

Since I can't see my son, maybe I can feel more comforted if I see my future daughter-in-law.

"I also heard that Miss Su returned to the capital a few days ago, but I heard from the Empress Dowager yesterday that because of the war at the border, Miss Su went to the horse farm to work and had left the capital."

The Fifth Princess smiled and sighed, "This Miss Su is so concerned about her business. She must be someone who can't sit still."

Are you just concerned about the business she runs?

Did she also have the idea that if she could run the horse farm well and keep sending war horses to the border, the border war could be settled earlier, and the people she cared about could come back earlier? But she didn't know if her You'er was among the people she cared about.

The queen smiled but didn't reveal her feelings too much. She just said, "No matter what you do, this hardworking person will never be bad."

"Mother, you are absolutely right." The Fifth Princess agreed.

The snowflakes outside were still fluttering, falling on the roof and on the ground, soon turning the entire field into a world of ice and snow.

There are many plum blossoms planted in the Queen's Courtyard, including red plum, white plum, winter plum... countless.

The weather is cold, and the branches of various plum trees are already covered with flower buds of all sizes. At this time, they stand on the branches together with the crystal clear snow, some are as bright as fire, some are pure white, and some are as orange as gold, which is truly a beautiful sight.

I really hope the children can come back earlier and stay in the warm house with her, drinking steaming tea and looking at the beautiful scenery outside.

The queen thought so and took another sip of tea.

At this time, Su Yunruo also took a sip of water.

However, she was riding against the cold wind at this time, and the water in the water bag on her waist had already become ice-cold. After it entered her mouth, Su Yunruo felt her teeth chattering.

The cold air from inside out made her shiver.

"Miss, do you want to take a break before you go?" Xiangqiao, who was accompanying her, suggested.

"The sky is so gloomy, I'm afraid it will snow tonight. Let's hurry forward now and see if we can find a suitable place to rest."

As Su Yunruo spoke, she urged the others to drive their horses forward.

Seeing her young lady's determined eyes, Xiang Qiao stopped dissuading her. However, when she saw Su Yunruo's cheeks exposed to the outside were already red from the cold wind, Xiang Qiao felt very distressed.

"We have all the personnel to transport the horses to the border, and there are officials escorting them along the way. We have done this several times before, and everything went smoothly."

Xiang Qiao said hesitantly, "Miss, you don't have to..."

You have to go there in person.

To suffer such hardships and endure such sins.

"That's true." Su Yunruo replied with a smile, "It's just that I haven't seen Sister Jin for nearly half a year. I really miss her, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to go see Sister Jin."

"And Miss Lu, I wonder if everything is okay at the border..."

Su Yunruo hesitated to speak, and ultimately did not mention anyone else.

Xiang Qiao blinked when she heard that.

Is there really no one else?

However, Xiang Qiao did not ask, but just looked at Su Yunruo with suspicion for a long time.

Su Yunruo was already feeling guilty, and now she noticed that Xiangqiao's gaze was quite meaningful. She didn't even dare to look at Xiangqiao, and just touched her nose and said, "Everything I said is true."

"I didn't say that the young lady was lying." Xiang Qiao said with a playful look on her face.

Why did the lady start to refute herself?

Why do I feel like there's something fishy going on here?

Xiangqiao giggled.

Su Yunruo knew that she had been tricked by Xiangqiao, so she reached out and tapped her forehead, "You are really getting bolder and bolder, you even dare to make fun of your master."

"It's boring to travel, I just want to make you laugh." Xiang Qiao made a face and handed the warm sleeve to Su Yunruo, "Put this on, at least your hands won't get cold."

Su Yunruo has been making a living outside since she was young, and her hands have been covered with frostbite since childhood, so her hands are very afraid of cold.

It is very rare that she can persist in traveling in such cold weather.

"Thank you for being so careful." Su Yunruo smiled and put on the warm sleeves to cover the gaps at the cuffs, and then urged the others to hurry up. ——That night, Xueyue Mansion was just like usual.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

He Yanxiu and Qin Peiyou finished their meeting with Duke Dingguo and others and returned to their room together.

Qin Peiyou was still thinking about what Duke Dingguo had just said, so he did not go back to his room directly, but went to He Yanxiu's room first.

He Yanxiu poured Qin Peiyou a cup of tea.

Qin Peiyou took it and thought for a moment, "Just now, Duke Dingguo mentioned that the great wizard from Xijinyun State has recently performed a magic trick. Any soldier who has been treated by the great wizard will have infinite power, be invulnerable to swords and guns, and be invincible in battle..."

"Is there really such a magical thing in this world?"

Qin Peiyou felt very confused.

"Whether there is one or not, we will know tomorrow when we go to take a look." He Yanxiu said, "The spies reported that the army of Xijinyun Kingdom has gathered near Xuefeng County. It seems that they are going to make a comeback. In order to test the enemy's current military strength, General Cheng will lead an army to ambush them. Then we will know the enemy's strength."

"Yes." Qin Peiyou nodded, "In that case, I will go with you tomorrow."

Take a look and see if such a magical thing really exists.

"You can follow, but you can only follow from a distance. Let Commander Zou stay by your side." He Yanxiu said.

At this time, the Xijinyun Kingdom was retreating step by step, and was fighting like a trapped beast. The closer it got to this point, the more unsure they were about what sinister things the other side would do.

It is his duty to protect Qin Peiyou, and there cannot be any mistakes.

As expected, he was still not allowed to follow.

But being able to have him follow me is already good enough. I really can't ask for too much, and no matter what the reason is, he has to take care of himself.

"Okay." Qin Peiyou agreed readily.

After saying that, he reached out to take the teacup on the table.

The tea in the cup had been drunk up, and the kettle next to it was also empty.

"Someone come here." He Yanxiu waved at the door, "Go and get another pot of tea."

"Yes." The guard at the door hurriedly picked up the teapot and hurried away. Perhaps because he had never done such personal work, his movements seemed a little flustered.
