Chapter 147 Snowstorm, this year

There was heavy snow all over the sky, and many people were anxious to leave the city, crowding at the city gate.

"How can someone still be riding a horse in this horrible weather? Aren't they afraid of freezing into a block of ice?"

Someone laughed jokingly, and many of the people who were waiting had nothing better to do than to go look for the man riding a horse.

Sure enough, a shadow was running towards them in the heavy snow.

The chestnut horse was particularly conspicuous in the white snow, and the person on the horse was wrapped in a silver-white fox fur. It was difficult to see clearly from a distance, but when you got closer, your face could be recognized at a glance.

"It's Concubine Su!"

"She wants to die? Is she going to leave the city?"

"He's probably going to complain to Prince Yong."

"Complain?"

When someone asked, those who knew the inside story began to talk about it, adding fuel to the fire and telling what happened in Fengyun Building today.

"This Concubine Su has suffered so much injustice from the Pei family. Who else would support her except Prince Yong? Let alone snow, even if it's a knife, she has to go to Prince Yong to make the decision for her, right?"

This is the truth.

It's normal for a beautiful woman to be a little spoiled, not to mention that Prince Yong has spoiled her to the point of lawlessness.

Therefore, after Su Rui left the city through the other gate, no one talked about it anymore.

Su Rui, who was running in the wind and snow, had no time to care about what others said.

The biting wind and snow had already chilled her whole body, and she was almost numb from the cold after just a short while.

She could only tighten the fox fur coat, trying to leave only her eyes exposed, but she did not dare to slow down at all.

She was too slow to react.

She forgot that there was a snowstorm that year.

She only remembered that one year the snow was particularly heavy. In her soul state, she could not feel the cold, but she could see the snow in the yard accumulating layer by layer at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Marquis Yong'an also became extremely busy. Once when he came back, she happened to float beside him and heard him and Liang say that the snow disaster was particularly serious and many places had suffered major disasters. Apart from Shengjing, Yanzhou was the worst hit. Due to insufficient preparation and blocked roads, many people and military camps suffered casualties, and the leader would definitely be severely punished.

At that time, she was in a soul state and could hardly tell the year. In addition, since it had nothing to do with her, she didn't remember it very clearly.

Seeing that winter came faster this year than in previous years and the snow fell earlier, I had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but I couldn't remember what it was.

It was not until Yue Heyun shouted that she recalled the widespread wailing outside the Yong'an Marquis Mansion that year.

The snow disaster happened this year.

Su Rui was not sure whether Yun Ji was the commander of Yanzhou at this time in his previous life, but he was now. If this snowstorm caused large-scale casualties among the people and military camps in Yanzhou, the blame would fall on him.

Queen Lin, the Lin family has been silent all this time, not letting him develop, but waiting for an opportunity to act.

This is the best opportunity!

One strike would reduce Yun Ji to ashes.

But she couldn't send anyone to deliver the message.

Even if Zhuiyue and others are around, there is no guarantee that the Lin family and Queen Lin will send experts to secretly watch them.

It is not safe to send ordinary people, and the news may leak out easily.

If we send Zhuiyue and others, even if they are very skilled in martial arts, they are not invincible.

She had to go by herself and let many people know that she was going.

It's just right to take advantage of Pei Yan to make this happen.

If something happened to her on the way, everyone would know that it happened on her way to find Yun Ji, and the Pei family was involved, so they would definitely investigate thoroughly to exonerate themselves.

Even if the Lin family suspected that her trip might not be because of Pei Yan's matter, they would not leave any handle for themselves for a small fry like her.

But she had to be quick.

Being one step faster means being one step ahead in preparation. Perhaps, this is the only step that is missing.

…

The news of Su Rui rushing out of the city soon reached the Lin family.

At this moment, Empress Lin was chatting with Prime Minister Lin in the study. Upon hearing the news, she paused while throwing the chess pieces and asked, "Is he heading towards Yanzhou?"

The visitor nodded.

Lin Shoufu also raised his eyes and asked, "Nuannuan, do you think this girl didn't go there because of Pei Yan's matter?"

"This girl from the Su family may look delicate, but she has a very strong temper. Pei Yan is no match for her. Even the Pei family wouldn't dare to offend her at this moment. She knows this best."

In such weather, rushing to Yanzhou in the wind and snow must be about something more important.

"What about the others?"

The reporter thought for a moment and said, "There's news that Miss Tang went to Prince Yong's mansion a while ago and handed something to him at the gate. Prince Yong looked unhappy at the time. Not long after entering the mansion, he rode away from the capital. He hasn't sent any letters back to the capital recently."

"It seems that the young couple has had a conflict." Prime Minister Lin said with a smile, as if he was joking about an interesting thing between the younger generation.

Queen Lin felt that this matter was not that simple, but at the moment there was indeed no loophole.

"Keep watching and be careful."

The visitor withdrew. Prime Minister Lin looked at his daughter, who now had a few gray hairs on her temples, and said with a smile, "Don't be so nervous. They are just two little kids who are still wet behind the ears."

"A proud army will surely be defeated. This is what my father taught me." Queen Lin dropped the chess piece in her hand.

Seeing the changes in the chess game, Prime Minister Lin's eyes were filled with satisfaction and approval. "I am old now, and I will listen to you. Is Hong'er coming to the capital soon?"

"It will probably arrive in a few days."

"That's good. This time, we must not make the same mistake again."

…

On the training ground.

The snow fell heavier and heavier, and it was swept away again and again.

However, the troops led by Chen Duo were not afraid of the severe cold and snow, and still practiced shirtless on the training ground.

The soldiers in the barracks joked that they were made of iron and were not afraid of either cold or heat.

And now, there is one more team.

That was Yun Ji and his guards.

Although he was not shirtless like Shen Duo and the others, his training was not vague at all.

Originally, Yun Ji was the commander and did not need to participate in such daily training. The same went for the guards, whose duty was to protect Yun Ji.

But it’s not impossible for them to follow, but it will make things difficult for the people below them.

However, Yun Ji had already given orders that since he had just entered the barracks, he should encourage himself and others did not need to follow him.

The other troops were naturally happy about it. After all, it was cold and uncomfortable to train outside in such terrible weather.

But Chen Duo is a competitive person.

There was no way he would retreat during Yun Ji's training, so how could he be worse than these show-offs from the capital?

So, even though it was cold, he still chose to go shirtless.

Even many soldiers in the army had turned blue in the face and moved slowly due to the cold, but instead of letting them go down to rest, he immediately glanced over and silently scolded them.

The soldiers all had the utmost faith in him and obeyed his orders without hesitation, no matter how hard they tried, they persevered.

Chen Duo was actually a little worried, wondering whether he should let his brothers put on their clothes for practice.

But they always go shirtless. If they wear clothes now, they will lose to these fancy guys.

"Even the prince's concubines can't ride into the camp!"

The shouts rang out outside the military camp, facing the training ground, and everyone instinctively turned to look.

I saw a chestnut horse crossing the checkpoint and rushing straight inside, with a man wrapped in fox fur sitting on it.

The snowy wind blew away her hood, revealing her dazzlingly beautiful face.
