I was a prince in ancient times

Running on the road is actually a very boring and boring thing, and there are not many pedestrians on the official road in winter. After walking for a few days, Xie Anlan became a little tired of this endless progress.

Looking at Lu Chengjia who was sitting quietly reading a book, Xie Anlan felt even more bored.

The back naturally tilted back, the back of the head fell on the opened page, and fell down, the book and the person landed on Lu Chengjia's lap.

"Your Highness?" His long eyelashes trembled, suppressing the inexplicable throbbing in his heart.

"How long will it be? I'm tired." Xie Anlan rested her pillow on Lu Chengjia's lap, looked up at that flawless face from bottom to top, squinted her eyes and rubbed comfortably.

Drunk lying on the lap of a beautiful woman, it's a pity that there is no wine.

Lu Chengjie's fingertips trembled slightly, he pursed his lips tightly to hide his unnaturalness, and looked down at the person on his lap tenderly.

The heart that had been on the clouds for several days finally came to fruition at this moment.

Stretching out his hand, he gently pulled out the book under Xie Anlan's head, and carefully arranged the long hair scattered on his legs, "I will pass Jiazhou soon, and I will arrive in three days."

The voice is soft and soothing, which makes people feel a lot less irritable.

"It's three more days." Xie Anlan frowned, he didn't want to stay in the car for a moment.

He has never even been on a long-distance bus, and being able to endure seven or eight days in a carriage is already his limit.

However, the name Jiazhou sounds familiar.

"Jiazhou is the place where grandfather cut off the enemy army." Xie Anlan became interested.

This was the place where Yongchao's life and death were directly established. Thinking about it, I still have some longing.

I want to see how Tianjian ruined the enemy's reinforcements, and how Duke Lu won the victory.

Hearing Xie Anlan directly address Grandpa as Grandpa, my heart trembled, the corners of my lips curled up, and I couldn't deny that I was in a good mood, "Yes, Your Highness wants to go and have a look?"

"Naturally." When it's here, I always feel guilty if I don't go to see it.

Besides...

Xie Anlan's eyes fell on Lu Chengjiao's slightly smiling lips, and he smiled knowingly.

What's more, he wanted to take him to relax on this trip, so it would be good to have a look.

Some things, some people should try to let go.

People always have to face life and death directly. Instead of living in the past and being unhappy in the past, it is better to be more chic, live in the present, and be drunk today.

"What is Your Highness looking at?" Lu Chengjiao asked Xie Anlan's gaze.

"I'm looking at you." Xie Anlan didn't shy away.

"What's interesting about me?" Lu Chengjie smiled.

"You look good, it pleases my heart and my eyes." Xie Anlan supported his head with his hands, and looked into his eyes.

Seeing the warm eyes on the opposite side flicker a little flustered, he raised a triumphant smile.

After Lu Chengjie was a little flustered, he saw Xie Anlan's smile, paused, and said with a smile, "Your Highness is also pretty, disturbing my heart and making me miss you."

Xie Anlan's face turned red instantly.

He thought that Lu Chengjie was a reserved person, but he didn't expect to be more straightforward than a modern person like him.

Facing Xie Anlan's familiar face, Lu Chengjiao smiled slyly.

She thought that His Highness had already gotten used to it, but she didn't expect that she and him were just like each other.

The carriage quickly drove into Jiazhou, and when it reached the foot of Tianjian, Xie Anlan, who had never been involved in the march, finally gave his first order, "Stop here for a while to reorganize the army."

Huo Sen, who has always been strictly disciplined, raised his eyebrows when he received the sudden news.

He was on guard against Xie Anlan along the way, for fear that something would happen to Xie Anlan along the way.

Fortunately, after walking for seven or eight days, Xie Anlan kept to himself and gradually made him let go of his guard. As a result, he was relieved in the morning and worried in the afternoon.

"General Huo, the princess and I want to take a walk here, it won't waste too much time."

As soon as Xie Anlan got out of the carriage, Huo Sen, who was dressed in military uniform and with a solemn expression, rode up to him and hurriedly explained.

When Huo Sen saw Lu Chengjie and looked at the sky streams on both sides of the road, he suddenly understood, nodded in agreement, but still said with a serious expression, "The half-hour rectification time, please don't delay it."

Xie Anlan waved his hand to show that he knew, and he also understood Huo Sen's character along the way, so he didn't care about him.

He led Lu Chengjie to the foot of the Tianjian, which was not visible to the top, on both sides of the road. Looking up at the steep and steep Tianjian, he couldn't help feeling, "How do I climb up here?"

"Use the hook rope to climb up step by step." Lu Chengjiao replied.

Xie Anlan rolled his throat. In the ancient times without any protective measures, it might not be easy to climb up.

Lu Chengjie seemed to have guessed what Xie Anlan wanted to say, "After the first group of people climb up, tie the ropes, and the rest will be much easier."

As he spoke, he gestured twice again, "Look, isn't the road in the middle of the Tianjian very narrow? Grandpa took advantage of this back then, thinking that the cavalry from the Grassland Department couldn't cross the Tianjian in large numbers. Prepared a heaven and earth net."

"How did they see it so high?" Xie Anlan measured it with his eyes, at least several hundred meters, and there were lush trees as sightlines.

"Invisible, judged entirely by the sound and the trembling of the treetops."

With just a few words, Xie Anlan could hear the difficulty inside.

"Your Highness, there are still traces of hooks sliding here." Lu Chengjia searched for a while on the wall of the stream, and found two traces.

Xie Anlan got closer, and saw two deep and powerful hooks left on the wall behind the grass. Ten years of time did not make them disappear, but gave the grass a place to take root, thus covering up these traces .

Xie Anlan's heart was moved, she looked at the mountain grass in Lu Chengjia's hand, and said with a smile, "It would be fine if I were this mountain grass."

"Why?" Lu Chengjiao was puzzled, Xie Anlan's status was noble, why would he want to be a weed in the mountains.

Xie Anlan didn't explain, but rubbed gently with her fingertips for a while, looking very affectionate.

I don't know that the wound in Lu Chengjie's heart is like this mark, once burned, it can never be removed.

Fortunately, he is willing to be that mountain grass, rooted in these scars, until dense greenery grows.

However, there is no need to explain these words, time will prove it for him, if you say too much and do little, it will appear frivolous.

Xie Anlan had never dated anyone in his two lifetimes, but to his surprise, he found that being with Lu Chengjiao wasn't bad.

So he is willing to cherish this person in his heart.

The two strolled along the foot of Tianjian for a while, and when they saw that it was almost time, they went back.

After moving her body, Xie Anlan didn't feel so bored lying on the carriage, just a little boring.

When Huo Sen saw that the two returned on time, he relaxed and was about to ride back to his army.

"General Huo—wait."

Xie Anlan watched Huo Sen leave boredly, and suddenly had a thought and stopped him.

"What is your order?" Huo Sen pulled the horse's rein in time and stopped.

"General Huo, can you find two carpenters for me?" Xie Anlan asked with a bright smile.

He knew that this was Huo Sen's first time leading the Huo|Powder Camp. In order to avoid any mistakes, he brought a lot of craftsmen, including a few carpenters, and asked him if he was right.

Facing Xie Anlan's smile, Huo Sen just let go of his heart, and suddenly felt stabbed again.

What kind of illusion made him misunderstand that Xie Anlan was a peaceful person.

Huo Sen twitched his eyelids, nodded in response with a stern expression, turned his horse's head and walked towards the army behind him without saying a word.

After a while, he brought two carpenters to Xie Anlan's carriage.

Xie Anlan looked at the two artisan soldiers with their own tools, and narrowed his eyes with a smile, "General Huo, thank you."

Huo Sen nodded stiffly, and left without looking back.

"What is Your Highness looking for a carpenter?" Seeing that Xie Anlan was going to make something again, Chen Gui became interested. Ever since Xie Anlan made a curved carriage axle to keep the carriage from bumping, he believed that Xie Anlan had an exquisite heart. Heart, think and think better than ordinary people.

"Make something."

Xie Anlan said vaguely, wanting to call the two carpenters to the car and describe it to them in detail, but they were so frightened that they immediately knelt on the ground and said they didn't dare.

In the end, Xie Anlan had no choice but to let them stay in the front room of the carriage, and the two agreed.

Xie Anlan only gave a rough explanation, and the two carpenters knew how to do it.

Fortunately, it is not complicated, so the two craftsmen took advantage of their free time to do it.

When it was almost time to reach the destination, the two of them had almost finished things, but Xie Anlan was not happy about it, but felt even heavier.

After passing through Jiazhou, the weather became significantly colder, as if it froze people's hearts.

Thousands of refugees gathered on both sides of the official road, each of them looked numb, like a walking dead.

These are refugees who fled after the city was destroyed. They had nowhere to go, and they didn't know where to go. They all gathered blindly on the official road, begging passers-by for a bite of food.

There was a pile of dead bodies lying behind them, whether they were starved to death or frozen to death, and no one restrained them, just like that, the corpses were exposed in the wilderness.

There are people who are so hungry that they lose their human form, lying on these dead people like hyenas, gnawing their flesh and blood, until the white bones are exposed, and then they look at the people who are constantly begging on the official road with a mocking face.

Kneeling beside the carriage was a group of parents begging to sell their sons and daughters, just to get a little food to fill their stomachs.

Corpses are strewn all over the field, and the eyes are desolate.

Xie Anlan finally experienced the despair and depression in these two words.

Before reaching the battlefield, Xie Anlan felt first-hand what it means to be in chaos and chaos.

The scary thing is that he clearly saw it, but he couldn't stop it, and he couldn't save it, so he could only walk by pretending to ignore it.

When camping at night, he also saw many soldiers carrying their rations to the refugees to pick out the women they liked and make peace with them all night.

Just one meal of food is not enough to survive, but there are still many people who are willing, and there are even many scrambling for it.

There has long been no order here, and it has been reduced to hell.

"Your Highness, if you want to do something, do it." Seeing that Xie Anlan had been silent for a day, Lu Chengjia took his hand, opened his clenched hands one by one, and put a box in his hand.

"What?" Xie Anlan felt a icy coldness, and finally regained consciousness, and gently opened the box, which contained a thick stack of banknotes.

"Your Highness will entrust Chengjia's wealth." Seeing Xie Anlan's surprise, Lu Chengjia smiled.

Touching Lu Chengjiao's smile, Xie Anlan felt that there is still warmth in the world.

He let out a foul breath and said, "No, please go and ask General Huo to come over."
