Yuan Zhao asked Duota for help and quickly made a set of suitable armor for Yuan Nan'an.
The craftsmen of Northern Qiang have superb skills. Although time is tight, Duota still selected the best black gold iron.
Jin Wan personally supervised the production and polishing of the armor, striving to ensure that it could protect her vital parts while not hindering her speed and flexibility.
In addition, Dota also specially forged a handy long sword for her.
The sword is slender all over, with a sharp blade and faint ripples carved on the blade. It emits a cold luster under the light, like a stream of light in the middle of the night.
The handle is wrapped with a special rope, which is non-slip and durable to hold, and is just right for a swordsman like Yuan Nan'an who is light and extremely fast.
By the time the armor and sword were delivered, Yuan Nan'an was already making final preparations.
Huo Yan sent the elite troops brought by Mo Yu to garrison outside Xiaoyue City, ready to go as soon as she was ready.
Yuan Zhao personally sent her out of the city.
I left home early today, and Yuan Qiyu and Yuan Zhizhi were not awake yet.
Yuan Nan'an didn't want to make the farewell scene too heavy, so he didn't bring them out.
Only Dota came out with Yuan Zhao.
When Yuan Zhao saw his daughter wearing armor and a sword at her waist, standing in the cold wind at dawn, he felt a mixture of emotions.
Time flies by very fast——
Yesterday, she was still the soft and gentle little girl who always liked to follow behind her. Now she is as tall as a pine tree, wearing armor and holding a sword, ready to gallop on the battlefield.
The armor was still brand new, and the sharp sword had not yet been stained with the blood of the enemy.
But she knew that when they met again, there might be a few more knife scars on the armor and the sword would be covered with bloodstains.
And Yuan Nan'an... will also grow a lot.
Yuan Zhao reached out and personally fastened the straps of her armor, then patted her shoulder gently.
"Nannan, promise your mother that the most important thing is to protect your own life and come back safely."
Yuan Nan'an stood straight, looked at Yuan Zhao with firm eyes, and held Yuan Zhao's hand.
"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely not joke about my life."
Her voice was sonorous and powerful, full of pride and determination.
The wind and snow were blowing, and the morning light dyed the sky a light golden color.
Yuan Nan'an jumped on his horse, holding a spear, looking heroic.
She gently lifted the reins, and the warhorse's front hooves rose into the air, neighing.
The elite soldiers who had gone into battle with her followed closely behind, their armor gleaming in the morning light.
Yuan Zhao stood where he was, watching their backs gradually walk away until they disappeared into the vast sky and earth.
Dota stood beside her and saw that she looked depressed, so he comforted her.
"Huo Yan and I already know the route for the food shipment. We have made all the necessary arrangements along the way. There won't be any major danger."
Yuan Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
She didn't really want to ride in a carriage, so she said to Dotta,
"I want to take a walk."
Duota was stunned when he heard this and was about to say that he would go back to the palace first.
But Yuan Zhao was one step ahead of him. He looked at him and asked, "Do you want to join us?"
Dota tightened his hands hanging at his side again and again, and the astonishment on his face could not be hidden, obviously he was not expecting it.
He nodded woodenly, his voice a little hoarse.
"good."
Jin Wan tactfully asked everyone to step back, leaving space for the two of them, and just followed from a distance behind.
The dim morning light gradually shines on the snow-capped mountains in the distance, and the sky appears a light pink.
There was silence between the two for a while, and finally Yuan Zhao was the first to ask the question that had been buried in his heart for some time.
"You..." She looked forward, "Did you dream anything while you were asleep?"
Dota shook his head in denial, "No."
Yuan Zhao took one look at him and exposed his lies.
"You dreamed of something completely different than what's happening now, didn't you?"
Duota's body stiffened slightly, and he stopped and looked at Yuan Zhao, "A Zhao... you know everything?"
Yuan Zhao smiled slightly and shook his head, "I know a little bit. Zhizhi told me."
Dota looked at her smile and felt inexplicably relieved.
Fortunately... Fortunately, he was the only one who experienced those things.
The two continued walking forward, and Yuan Zhao couldn't help but ask, "Is it miserable?"
Dota was silent.
She curled her lips and chuckled, feeling that this question was a bit redundant.
Judging from the ending she knew, and considering that these things were enough to change Dota, it was tragic enough.
She suddenly stopped, and Dota also stopped.
The two stood face to face, Yuan Zhao stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder.
"Don't take it too seriously, it's just a dream."
"Look at me now, and the children, aren't we all fine?"
There was a smile on the corner of her lips, and when she faced him, her eyes were no longer as cold as before, but also had some warmth like before.
Dota stared at her, and it took him a while to realize that she was comforting him.
Although Jin Wan was far away behind him, he could still guess a little from the expressions and actions of the people in front of him.
He looked at his king's expression and couldn't help but sigh.
Since returning to Xiaoyue City, the king has been suffering from nightmares every night and has been unable to sleep.
He only left Jin Wan to serve in the outer palace every night, and Jin Wan could always hear the king calling "A Zhao" in his dream.
He didn't know what the king was dreaming about, but the low moaning was extremely painful to listen to.
At the beginning, Jin Wanbairi would also suggest that Duota go to the Star-Picking Palace.
But Dotta remained silent, drowning himself in government affairs.
He only slept for one or two hours every day. When he really couldn't sleep, he would quietly go to the Star-Picking Palace without disturbing anyone.
Just sitting on the wall, with snow falling all over me.
Jin Wan wanted to talk about it with Yuan Zhao several times, but he always suppressed it.
