The silly and sweet spring of crossing

"Thank you, Lord Yan." After Liu Huaiyan handed the invitation to Yan Ming, he didn't stay any longer and left the palace.

Yan Ming went down to court, returned to his office, and asked about He Lanyuzhi's movements, but was told that there was no news.Jin Yun sent Jin Fan to intercept He Lanyuzhi, but he didn't know when He Lanyuzhi would come back, and Jin Fan also acted on his own.After seeing He Lanyuzhi, he had already written everything in a letter for someone to send back, but the journey was far away, so he hadn't sent it to the capital yet.

He Lanyuzhi and Qiu Baichen stayed at the border for a few days, and the army only had enough food and grass to support it for less than ten days. If there was no food and grass, and people were exhausted, if Jin Fan came by then, He Lanyuzhi might also be captured without a fight.

"We can't hold on anymore, Yuzhi, what are we going to do?" He Lanyuzhi didn't hide the current situation from Qiu Baichen, Qiu Baichen was rarely anxious, he looked at Helan Yuzhi, He Lanyuzhi also Looking at him, although the description is already a little haggard, the eyes are firm.

"There will be a way. I have already found a helper. It stands to reason that I should be here today." He Lanyuzhi was also very anxious. The other party did not come at the scheduled time, which made him very anxious.The army can't last much longer.

Qiu Baichen knew that he was comforting himself, and of course it was impossible to pretend that nothing happened and go on with the days of eating and drinking.He thought about what he could help He Lanyu, but it turned out that there really wasn't much.

However, one thing seems to work.

"Otherwise, I'll go back and buy food and grass." Qiu Baichen said, this is probably the only thing he can do for He Lanyuzhi now.But after he finished speaking, he thought again, even if he could go back quietly, with so much food and grass, it would be as difficult as climbing the sky to transport things back with his own strength.Besides, the palace will be closely monitored now, and if they are alarmed, there will be problems instead.

"I don't want you to take this risk." He Lanyuzhi looked at Qiu Baichen, he was tempted by Qiu Baichen's proposal.As long as Qiu Baichen enters the city with a good disguise, he should not be discovered, and in Dachu, he still has support. If Qiu Baichen can go back and get along with the other party, it is also possible to bring food and grass back.

It's just that this is an adventure after all, not afraid of ten thousand but just in case.

"Isn't it an adventure to stay here with you?" Qiu Baichen smiled, wanting to appease He Lanyuzhi, the two remained silent for a long time.After all, because time was urgent, He Lanyuzhi agreed to Qiu Baichen's proposal, and asked someone to escort him, pretending to be an ordinary businessman and returning to Dachu with the caravan.

"Be careful." In the evening, He Lanyu sent Qiu Baichen off, reluctant to part but finally had to say goodbye.Qiu Baichen needs to detour to another city, enter through the city gate tomorrow morning, then rush back to Xinfang City, buy food and grass, and then return the same way.

"Be careful too." Qiu Baichen put on his hood, got on his horse, turned and left without looking back.

On He Lanyuzhi's side, the military drills have been stopped. Everyone is on strict precautions, consumes less energy, saves food and grass, and must survive no matter what.

In order to boost morale, He Lanyuzhi and the soldiers explained some of the reasons why they failed to return to Dachu this time.He took out the name of the Qing emperor and explained to everyone that the little emperor is now held hostage by the prime minister and the general, so he was labeled as a traitor.The soldiers didn't believe that they came all the way to Rong country to fight for the country, and how they became rebels when they came back, so they also held their breath in their hearts.

Several generals under He Lanyuzhi were so angry that they wanted to fight directly, and they arrested Jin Fan to vent their anger.However, there is He Lanyuzhi on the top, as long as Helanyuzhi doesn't give an order, they can't do anything, which stifles this group of young and energetic generals.

The time of separation is getting longer and longer, and the matter is getting more and more urgent.Qiu Baichen stayed up all night, pretending to be a merchant, and entered through the gate of Yunxiao City early in the morning with his pass, without arousing any suspicion along the way.After entering the city, Qiu Baichen settled down the caravan, and as soon as he sat down, a person rushed over.

"See Wangfei." The person who came was the Lord of Yunxiao City, named Yunliang, who was in his forties, tall and burly, with a bit of foreign blood, because his eye sockets were deeper and his nose was taller.

Yunxiao City is an important border defense town, and the Yun family has been stationed in Yunxiao City for hundreds of years, with the Yun family army under their command to protect the city.The lord of Yunxiao City is directly appointed by the emperor, and all orders must be issued by the emperor himself, and no one else can give them orders.

The prime minister's hand can't reach here yet.

Once Qiu Baichen entered Yunxiao City, he was safe for the time being.

"You are welcome, General Yun. I would like to thank General Yun for his help this time." Qiu Baichen said with a smile, and Yun Liang nodded.

"It's urgent. My side is already prepared. Why don't we just leave today." Yun Liang said.

Because Yunxiao City raises the army, it goes south every year to buy food and grass.Just at this time, the rice in the south had been harvested, and it was almost time to buy grain and grass in Yunxiao City, so Qiu Baichen led the team to Xinfang City.

"Okay." Qiu Baichen originally followed Yunliang's convenience, and the two agreed. Qiu Baichen took the token of Yunxiao City and led the team to buy food from Yunxiao City to Xinfang City.

There are strict party members everywhere in Dachu, but if there is any trouble, it will spread to the capital.Qiu Baichen's team passed through various cities, big and small, and their news was also collected and sent to the capital.However, this is the time for shopping in Yunxiao City. Yunxiao City has always been a very independent place, and no one can touch it, not even He Lanyuzhi, so Yan Ming didn't take this matter to heart. .

Qiu Baichen had just learned how to ride a horse, and started to trek long distances. Every day when he took a bath, he could see the inner thighs turned red and the pain was terribly painful.When I go to bed at night, my whole body is sore and limp, and I really miss the comfortable days before.

However, thinking of He Lanyuzhi who was far away in Rong country, he didn't feel uncomfortable, he just wanted to be faster, so that he could go back and join him.

The team hurried forward and arrived at Xinfang City in a few days.Qiu Baichen took the token and connected with the people in the house. He collected the income from the lamp shop, which should be enough to buy food and grass.There are people from the prime minister in the palace, so although there is a lot of money, it is not easy to move, and it is easy to alarm Yan Ming. The money in the lamp shop has always been stored in one place, and outside the palace, Qiu Baichen will not take it away. Personally know.

At this time, Qiu Baichen began to rejoice that he had money, and since he had the mechanism of joining, his money has been overflowing.However, he didn't have the time to celebrate anymore, so he left Xinfang City directly and continued southward to buy grain and fodder at the place where Yunxiao City usually buys grain and grass.

Because before coming here, Yunliang had sent a letter to say hello, explaining the quantity, so Qiu Baichen can directly check the receipt after coming.

On the way here, Qiu Baichen didn't encounter any accidents. Although the inspections at some checkpoints were stricter, there were no surprises.The status of Yunxiao City in Dachu is very special. This city is strictly guarded. In the previous dynasties, it was independent with an army, and it was almost independent financially. They guard the border well and don't provoke them.

The escort team returned to Yunxiao City. Qiu Baichen still wore the clothes he had when he came here. His skin was tanned a lot, and he was used to riding horses every day. He looked more masculine than before.Facing the mirror, Qiu Baichen would also admire his figure and look at the newly contoured abdominal muscles.

He was in a much more relaxed mood than before, and the journey went smoothly, and he returned to Yunxiao City smoothly. Qiu Baichen planned to resettle quickly when he entered the city, and went out to find He Lanyuzhi, but just after entering Yunxiao City, he saw a familiar person.

"..."

He only felt that his eyes were sour, his throat was blocked and he couldn't speak, and he almost cried out.Qiu Baichen got off the horse quickly, ran towards the man in front, and hugged him tightly.

"Why are you here?" Qiu Baichen asked, "Where are the others here? How are you doing recently? Have you encountered any difficulties?"

"Not yet, I'll come over and have a look first. There are a lot of people here, let's talk slowly when we go back." He Lanyuzhi patted Qiu Baichen on the back to comfort him, and the two returned to the City Lord's Mansion of Yunxiao City together.

"General Yun." He Lanyuzhi greeted Yunliang when he saw Yunliang.

"Let's eat first, the princess has worked hard." Yun Liang said, "I have already arranged people, and I will send the food and grass to the army as soon as possible."

Yunliang has already prepared lunch. Yunxiao City is on the border and eats a lot of meat, but the city week also focuses on the development of agriculture, and various Central Plains dishes are also available.This time when Qiu Baichen came back, he specially asked the cook to cook some southern dishes. Although it wasn't authentic, He Lanyuzhi hadn't eaten it for a long time. Qiu Baichen was also busy on the road and didn't eat anything good, so he was very moved.

After dinner, Yun Liang went to arrange the delivery of food and grass, while He Lanyuzhi and Qiu Baichen returned to the guest room. As soon as they entered the door, He Lanyuzhi hugged Qiu Baichen in his arms, bowed his head and kissed him.

"I miss you." Qiu Baichen hugged He Lan Yuzhi back, and He Lan Yuzhi reached out to touch his waist.

"You've lost weight." He looked at Qiu Baichen's face, it was sunburned, it was much darker, and his face was a little smaller.Although I often disliked his round face before, it is hard to avoid feeling distressed when I see him thinner.

The two stayed together for a while, the current situation is not as dangerous as before, and He Lanyuzhi also waited for someone to respond, everything is on the right track, so there is no need to worry too much, and only then can you feel in love with each other.

"Sleep here tonight and leave tomorrow." He Lanyu said, "Since we want to go to Qingjun's side, then we will really go to Qingjun's side."
