Xiao Rong: “…………”

He looked at Qu Yunmie woodenly, and Qu Yunmie also turned slightly and looked at him with his eyes open in the dark bed.

Qu Yunmie's eyes were straightforward and simple, which made Xiao Rong's heart tremble.

The two looked at each other quietly. After a moment, Xiao Rong smiled and said, "It seems that the king doesn't like being guarded. Well, then the king can sleep like this. It is already very safe around the king's tent. I will order the guards to keep a close eye on the door and not let anyone in or out. I think nothing will go wrong. What do you think, King?"

They all knew what the other party meant, so Qu Yunmie also knew that Xiao Rong had rejected him and he was unwilling to stay.

Qu Yunmie didn't necessarily want Xiao Rong to stay, but since he didn't want to, Qu Yunmie nodded, and then Xiao Rong left. He walked so fast that he even forgot to blow out the lamp at the door.

Qu Yunmie put his arms behind his head, looked at the place where the light was reflected, listened to the conversation between Xiao Rong and the guards outside, and then his eyes became confused.

Why did Xiao Rong live and eat with him the last time he was injured, but this time his injury was more serious than last time, but Xiao Rong was unwilling to live with him anymore?

Qu Yunmie looked up and found that he was suffering from insomnia again. ……＊

Qu Yunmie ordered Yuan Baifu and Jian Qiao to bring back those grave diggers within two days, but one day passed, two days passed, and still nothing happened. …

Yuan Baifu himself ran out to catch people, and Jian Qiao sent his trusted subordinates out, while he himself hid in the military camp and did not dare to hang around in front of Qu Yunmie.

Little did he know that Mr. Xiao, whom he most admired, was speaking well of him.

Xiao Rong: "Two days is really too much. Those people have been running for seven days. The area around Yanmen County is so big. Moreover, it will take a lot of time to bring them back to the military camp from Yanmen County."

Qu Yunmie was not convinced: "If you let me chase them, I can catch them back on the first day."

Xiao Rong: “…”

He was silent for a moment, then looked at Qu Yunmie with a fake smile: "Yes, then why didn't the king go after her on the first day?"

Qu Yunmie: “…………”

It's just like shooting oneself in the foot.

Xiao Rong was still sitting leisurely, and after the doctor came once in the morning and confirmed that Qu Yunmie no longer had signs of fever, Xiao Rong allowed him to move around a little. He could get out of bed and walk around, but he was not allowed to leave the king's tent.

Ever since Xiao Rong said that, Qu Yunmie never returned to that bed. Xiao Rong looked at him who was unable to sit still, and secretly curled his lips, while saying in his heart that he deserved it.

He was drinking the tea that Qu Yunmie had made for him. Xiao Rong didn't like brewed tea, but Qu Yunmie's was pretty good. Besides, the weather was getting cold, so a sip of hot tea could warm up his whole body.

Thinking about the increasingly cold weather, Xiao Rong couldn't help but ask, "When did it snow in Shengle in previous years?"

Qu Yunmie replied: "October, generally speaking it is mid to late October, but sometimes it is earlier."

Xiao Rong asked: "When it snows, the weather will become icy and unbearable?"

Qu Yunmie was throwing sweet dates into the teapot. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Rong.

Xiao Rong: “…”

What are you looking at? I live in the era of global warming, and I am from the south, okay? How do I know what changes will happen after the snow falls?

Qu Yunmie couldn't understand what he was thinking, but he could see that Xiao Rong's ears were starting to turn red, and he felt that he had lost face again. ... I don't understand, face, just lose a little, look at how many times he has lost it.

After a moment of silence, Qu Yunmie explained, "The cold weather is one thing. After the snow, the ground becomes muddy and difficult to walk on. The snow water seeps through the shoes and socks, freezing the soldiers' legs. After freezing, it is difficult to get up again. Those who cannot get up in the snow eventually die in the snow."

Xiao Rong was stunned for a moment and didn't ask any other questions.

If natural disasters could be so easy to resist, they would not be called natural disasters. Even if there is coal and various warming measures, they are actually only for those who stay indoors. People outside are still very cold and still have to struggle to survive in the ice and snow.

In the quiet atmosphere, Xiao Rong lowered his eyes and suddenly said, "So we must end this war before the end of October."

Qu Yunmie listened and frowned: "I'm afraid it won't be easy."

Xiao Rong looked at him in astonishment: "After going through the conspiracy, does your Majesty still find it difficult?"

Xiao Rong had no other intention in asking this question. He did not doubt Qu Yunmie's ability, but he thought that after suffering a severe loss, Qu Yunmie should be furious and did not want to care about anything else and only wanted to defeat the Xianbei. Qu Yunmie had the ability to do so as long as he no longer cared about other things.

Qu Yunmie: “…”

Very good, now he is the one who is embarrassed.

Qu Yunmie said unhappily, "I am of course very angry to be plotted against by such a villain, but I cannot take the lives of all the soldiers to avenge myself."

This time Xiao Rong was really shocked. Good fellow, you sounded quite righteous, but didn’t you do the same thing in the history? You found it difficult to defeat the Xianbei, and you became impatient, so you led your troops to attack regardless of the consequences, which led to the loss of the hearts of most generals.

Xiao Rong was fully prepared for Qu Yunmie's quick battle and had also made a series of plans, but who knew that he suddenly changed his mind.

Looking at Qu Yunmie strangely, until Qu Yunmie felt uncomfortable, Xiao Rong burst out laughing. He stood up with the teacup in his hand, and then sat down next to Qu Yunmie. He sighed leisurely, with the corners of his mouth still curled up: "When a soldier has been away for three days... you should look at him with new eyes. I would like to thank the king on behalf of all the soldiers. When facing a great humiliation, the king still values ​​his own soldiers the most. This is a wise leader who is truly worthy of people's loyalty."

Qu Yunmie listened calmly, his expression did not change at all, but Xiao Rong stared at his movements of throwing dates. If Qu Yunmie kept throwing dates like this, it would not be called tea soup, but date soup. …

Smiling silently, Xiao Rong moved his butt and rubbed it towards Qu Yunmie a few times to shorten the distance between himself and Qu Yunmie. He deliberately lowered his voice so that Qu Yunmie would have to listen to what he said seriously.

"But the king should also have faith in his soldiers. You should know that if the commander is humiliated, the king will be humiliated, and the subjects should commit suicide."

Qu Yunmie's expression changed. He was about to say something when Xiao Rong stopped him. "Of course, that was the rule in the past. Now every soldier is your man. Their lives are precious. Instead of using them to show your integrity, it is better to use them to kill more Xianbei people. Your Majesty, General Qu's era has long passed. Now is your era. Your injury is something that no one who is proud of being a member of the Zhenbei Army can tolerate. With this morale, there is no worry that we will not be able to recover in ten months."

Qu Yunmie thought for a moment and nodded: "I hope so."
