Chapter 179: White Hair Can't Be Replaced by Snow
"How dare you!" Yan Xingchuan was furious when he woke up. He stood up and walked out, "Prepare the horses, we're leaving now."
It was already past midnight, and a cold wind was blowing outside, making people shiver.
Yun Kui, the commander of the Yanyun Guard, was about to speak to persuade them, but Yun Gang pulled him back and told him not to do so.
Yan Xingchuan fell ill when they set out from Yunzhou City, and the weather was not good. It was a cold winter day and it rained coldly for two days. He was in a hurry to travel, so his illness could not be treated and kept recurring.
On the way, because the illness was quite serious, they rested for two days, so they originally had some free time and only arrived in Pingzhou City at noon today.
This time the illness was indeed quite serious, so they advised Yan Xingchuan to rest for two hours in Pingzhou City and take some medicine, so as to avoid falling ill before reaching Xianyang City.
Yan Xingchuan thought about it and felt that resting for two hours would be fine. However, he ended up resting until this time. Looking at the time, he felt angry and anxious.
Yun Kui couldn't help but said, "Master, we can set off now, but your illness has just improved. It would be better to take a carriage."
Yan Xingchuan glanced at them coldly: "Didn't I tell you to wake me up in two hours if I don't wake up? What are you doing? What? Do you have the choice to listen to my words or not?"
Everyone inside and outside the house knelt on the ground:
"My Lord, please forgive me."
Yun Gang sighed inwardly, what a stubborn guy! I told him not to talk about it, but he still insisted on bringing it up. Is he afraid of getting scolded?
They were worried about their master's health and it was true that they were thinking about their master, but Yan Xingchuan was determined to go to Xianyang City, so if they did this, they would be going against their master's wishes.
Yan Xingchuan's expression was stern: "Could it be that even you, the king, cannot be trusted?"
This was a serious statement, and everyone's faces changed drastically: "We absolutely have no such intention."
Yun Gang immediately explained, "My Lord, this matter was decided between me and the Commander. My Lord is seriously ill today, and we are worried about whether he can reach Xianyang City safely, so we made the decision without authorization... Let my Lord rest."
"The time is just right now. The master's health has improved a lot and he can hold on until he reaches Xianyang City to meet Princess Wang."
"When we decided to stay and rest for a while, I and the commander sent two people to Xianyang City. If Your Majesty hasn't arrived before Princess Wang leaves, we will stop them. Your Majesty, don't worry, there will be no accidents."
"It's a good time to set off now. We'll be able to reach Xianyang City before noon tomorrow. By then, Princess Wang should still be here."
After hearing this, Yan Xingchuan felt a little relieved: "Then let's get ready and set off now. This will not happen again."
"yes."
Yun Kui and Yun Gang both breathed a sigh of relief. They immediately asked people to prepare horses and sent people to negotiate with the Pingzhou City garrison to open the city gate and let them pass.
About half an hour later, a group of people rode out of the city and quickly disappeared into the night.
When the garrison general saw that the people had left, he ordered the city gates to be closed.
The guards nearby asked him, "Where is the King of Northern Yan going at this hour of night?"
"Silence." The garrison general's face turned cold. "Where the Lord is going is not for you to inquire. Keep your mouths shut. Not a single word of what happened today can be revealed. Anyone who reveals the Lord's whereabouts will be charged with treason."
The governor of Pingzhou City is still Cui Qiye. The conduct of all officials in the state has been investigated, and those who are not lacking in virtue will remain in their original positions. However, the army guarding Pingzhou has been replaced by the Northern Yan Army, and the original Pingzhou army has also been incorporated into the Pingzhou Army.
When the garrison general said this, everyone's faces changed, and they quickly responded with "yes", not daring to discuss it anymore.
But I'm still very curious.
Why is the King of Northern Yan still traveling so late at night? What is he going to do?
Is there a fight in Xiangzhou?
......
Yan Xingchuan and the Yanyun Guards rode their horses at night. Although it was dark and windy, making it difficult to walk, they had been marching and fighting for many years, and they often traveled at night, so their speed was not slow.
By the time the sky started to brighten, the journey from Pingzhou City to Xianyang City was already halfway completed.
And as the sky grew brighter, snowflakes fell from the sky with the cold wind, scattering all over the sky and earth.
It's snowing...
“It’s snowing…”
Cui Si stood under the porch, stretched out her hand and caught a snowflake.
The light and cold snowflakes fell into the palm of her hand and soon melted into a handful of cold ice water.
She tilted her hand slightly, letting the handful of ice water slide down her palm and drip onto the brick surface of the corridor.
Yesterday she took a pill and felt warm all over. She went to bed early and woke up early. When she woke up this time, it was just dawn.
But I couldn't sleep anymore, so I put on my cloak and sat under the corridor. I never expected that it would snow.
Did it snow on the eighth day of the first lunar month in your previous life?
She didn't remember anything, but she only remembered that on the ninth day of the first lunar month, there was a light snow on her way to get married. She even joked with Yan Xingchuan, "If we get wet in the snow together today, we will surely grow old together in this life."
She swore so confidently that they could grow old together that she even dared to change other people's words.
"If we are drenched in the snow together today, we will be able to grow old together in this life..." Even if we don't end up together, if you and I are drenched in the snow together today, we will be able to grow old together in this life.
This sentence is not good after all.
"Why are you up so early, ma'am?"
Seeing that the door was half-open, Song Lu stood up and went out to look. He was shocked to see Cui Si wrapped in a cloak sitting on the porch next to a beauty.
"Don't worry." Cui Si smiled. "I slept well last night and woke up early. I didn't know what to do in bed, so I came out to take a look. I saw it was snowing, so I watched for a while before going back. I'm afraid I have a lot of things to do today. Do you want to sleep a little longer?"
Song Lu shook her head repeatedly, blew the cold wind twice, wiped her face, and was already awake: "I won't sleep anymore. Madam, you want to watch the snow. I will accompany you to watch the snow. Madam, what do you think of the snow today?"
"Thoughts? How can white hair be replaced by snow?"
"Huh?" Song Lu scratched the back of his head, not understanding.
Cui Si smiled and shook her head: "You should read two more books tomorrow."
Song Lu stamped his feet: "You dislike me too?"
"How could that be? I, your master, just think that you can be better." Cui Si blew in the cold winter wind, and the few strands of hair that were not completely covered by the hood of her cloak fluttered in the wind.
She narrowed her eyes, a smile tinging her brows, "But it doesn't matter if Song Lu doesn't learn."
You worked hard for most of your life in your previous life, so just live a peaceful, comfortable and happy life in this one.
"The most important thing in life is to be happy..."
