In order to meet Leng Yu earlier and prevent him from being deceived, only she knows the hardships along the way.
They traveled day and night from the capital to the Western Regions, a journey that would have taken half a year, but they only took three and a half months.
After arriving in the Western Regions, they inquired about the location of the military camp along the way, but the snow was too heavy and the road was too slippery, so their horses needed horseshoes. Therefore, they were a day or two late.
But the delay of one or two days made her miss Leng Yu. Perhaps if she had arrived here a day earlier, all this could have been avoided.
The more she thought about it, the more irritated and anxious she became.
When they arrived at the place where Leng Yu left, there were only messy horse hoof prints left, and no sign of people.
Looking at the direction where the horse hoof prints disappeared, Ah Hou shouted to the soldiers behind him:
"Brothers, everyone split up and search."
After receiving the order, everyone quickly divided into several small teams and dispersed.
Luo Lan sat on the horse, looking at the endless snow, feeling a chill in his heart.
Leng Yu, where are you?
Leng Yu, where are you?
She called out to him over and over in her heart, but there was no response at all, and he wouldn't hear her.
She suddenly spurred her horse and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Gee!"
She slapped the horse's back and prepared to run forward. Seeing this, Ah Hong was about to follow her, but was stopped by her.
"Don't follow me. Split up and look for it. Whether you find it or not, you must rush back to the barracks at night."
Leaving these words behind, she tightened the reins of the horse again, bit her lip hard, her eyes suddenly focused, and she was carried by the horse and galloped away...
Her horse carried her and ran on the snow for a long time, but the snow kept falling and the footprints in the vast sea of snow had long been obliterated. Where could she find Leng Yu?
She walked and walked in the snow based on her feeling. After a while, the horse was exhausted. In addition, the weather was too cold, and the horse actually lay directly on the ground and could not move.
At this moment, from afar, she saw a group of people galloping in front of her. Those people... were Chu people?
Where are they going? Will they go after Leng Yu?
Thinking of this, her breathing became heavy and rapid, and her teeth began to chatter uncontrollably.
Looking at the horse lying motionless on the ground, she hardened her heart, tightened her fur cloak, and followed the direction the Chu people left.
These Chu people, led by Le Tu, were searching for Leng Yu's body in the snow.
It turned out that after returning to the Chu military camp, Letu secretly told this matter to his father, the current king of Chu. He immediately asked Letu to bring back Leng Yu's body without telling Xina, in order to suppress the morale of the soldiers of Daning.
Tule took a dozen Chu people with him and searched for Leng Yu in the snow according to his memory.
Luo Lan struggled forward in the snow. The flying snow had dyed her hair white. Her fiery red fox fur and white hair made her look like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.
At this moment, she had only one thought in her mind, which was to find Leng Yu. She would find him at all costs.
At this moment, one of the Chu people who were riding forward turned back and saw the woman struggling to catch up with them. He hurriedly called out to Le Tu,
"Little Prince, does the person behind you look like Princess Sina?"
When Letu heard this, he tightened the reins of his horse and looked back with a frown.
The woman who was walking towards him in the snow, one step deep and one step shallow, was none other than his cousin, Princess Sina.
Princess Sina is his aunt's only daughter. He knew from childhood that his aunt never married and spent all her life in the ancestral hall, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures. However, she has a daughter. He has never figured out where Sister Sina came from, or where his aunt picked her up?
Although this question has always accompanied him throughout his childhood, his father and mother did not allow him to ask about it or mention it in front of outsiders.
Over the years, his father and mother have doted on Sister Sina, even more than their own son. He also treats Sister Sina as his own sister, and no matter what happens, he will not go against his sister's wishes.
This time he told his father that Xina did not allow him to take Leng Yu's body back. It was also the first time he did something against Xina's wishes because the matter was of great importance.
Just as Letu was looking into the distance, the woman in red suddenly fell down. He quickly turned the reins of his horse and ran over there.
Luo Lan, who had just crawled out of the snow, had no time to wipe the snow off her face before she saw the Chu people on horseback running towards her.
She quickly took out several silver needles from the operating room. Once these Chu people approached, she could use these silver needles to save her life.
But before the Chu people came to the front, they heard the leading man shout:
"Sister Sina, why are you here? Where's your horse?"
Luo Lan was stunned by Le Tu’s words. Her brows tightened. That person called her Sister Sina?
After thinking for a while, she suddenly realized that these Chu people must have recognized the wrong person.
It seems that there really is a woman in Chu State who looks similar to her.
In that case, why doesn't she take advantage of the situation?
Thinking of this, she deliberately lowered her voice, coughed hard twice, and then replied in a hoarse voice:
"Where...where are you going?"
Letu rode up to her, dismounted, and looked her up and down.
"My father is so partial. Why did he give you such a beautiful fox fur coat and not me? I will definitely ask him for an explanation later."
In order to avoid being discovered by the Chu people in front of her, she couldn't say too much to them, so she frowned, raised her hand to pull at her cloak, and asked again:
"Where are you going?"
Letu hesitated for a moment, then said:
"Sister, Leng Yu is dead. Even if she showed mercy to your men, he was still our enemy. What's the point of keeping his body here in the vast snow? It would be better to take him back and whip his corpse on the battlefield to boost the morale of the Chu people and destroy the prestige of the Great Ning Kingdom."
Luo Lan only heard his first sentence. She could only vaguely hear what he said afterwards. When she heard that Leng Yu was dead, her tears fell like beads from a broken string, blurring her vision.
Leng Yu is dead?
He said Leng Yu was dead, was that true? She didn't believe it, Leng Yu wouldn't die, he wouldn't abandon her.
He will definitely not die...
She repeated this sentence countless times in her heart...
Seeing her crying, Letu hurriedly comforted her:
"Sister, don't cry. He's just an enemy from a foreign country. Why should you shed tears for him? At worst, I can whip his corpse three days later and find him a good feng shui site to bury him properly."
"Take me to him."
