Patrol's sweetheart baby

Xie Jinbai had a dream.

In the dream, the sky and the earth are covered with snow.

The wind is wrapped in heavy snow, roaring like a dragon in the mountains.

A blue carriage was driving on the mountain road.

The wind was loud, and the snow was even worse.

The snow-covered rocks on the top of the mountain rolled down and rushed down the mountain, completely burying the blue carriage driving on the mountain road.

Xie Jinbai opened his eyes in a cool suffocation.

"Crackling-"

In the yard, the sound of firecrackers rang out lively.

The dream just now was really too ominous.

With calm eyes, Xie Jinbai put on his robe, and called the guards to bring in a basin of hot water.

"My lord, Happy New Year!"

"My lord, Happy New Year!"

Xie Jinbai went downstairs wearing the light and warm pomegranate blanket. In the yard, Xiaodouzi and the others were happily setting off firecrackers.

Huo Sheng held a lantern in his hand, stood on the wooden ladder, and hung the lantern.

Ge Zhou supported him from below.

Seeing Xie Jinbai coming down the stairs, everyone greeted him one after another.

Tomorrow is the New Year, and everyone in the yamen will start to rest from the [-]th New Year's Eve.

Some went home to celebrate the new year, and some like Ge Zhou and Huo Sheng had settled down in private houses in the government office, and they even spent the new year in the government office.

Xiaodouzi and the others had always been afraid of Xie Jinbai. This time Xiaodouzi mustered up his courage, stepped forward, and asked boldly, "My lord, when will Xiaotang come back? Will he return to our Fufeng County during the Chinese New Year?"

Ah Shan also put down the firecrackers in his hand, obviously waiting for Xie Jinbai's answer.

After all, Huo Sheng has better eyesight than a few children, and he saw that Xie Jinbai's expression was not quite right, so he hung the lantern in his hand under the eaves, "Young master lives in Chun'an, so the New Year is naturally going to be reunited with his family You guys, don't patronize and play, help sweep the snow at the door."

Huo Sheng ordered Xiaodouzi and the others to sweep the snow.

Xiaodouzi and Ashan were disappointed when they heard that Tang Xiaotang might not come back for the New Year. Hearing that his father asked them to sweep the snow, they had to pretend to get the broom. After a while, they started playing in the snow again.

Since the Chinese New Year was coming soon, Huo Sheng rarely started scolding, but ordered them to be more serious.

Everyone in the government office was immersed in the happy atmosphere of the New Year.

"My lord... are you going out?"

Ge Zhou's eyes fell on Xie Jinbai's flaming crane blanket, and he asked hesitantly.

Xie Jinbai's crane felt is too eye-catching, he rarely wears it in the government office on weekdays, he only wears it when he goes out, so Ge ​​Zhou will ask this question.

"Yes. Please ask Master Ge to prepare me a BMW that is resistant to cold and good at running on mountain roads."

Xie Jinbaiwu gave Gezhou orders in a low voice.

Huo Sheng asked in surprise, "Tonight is New Year's Eve, do you want to leave the city?"

Xie Jinbai didn't intend to say more, and only responded with an "um".

Ever since waking up from the dream, the cool suffocation in Xie Jinbai's chest has been lingering.

Xie Jinbai finally decided to go out of the city in person.

According to the agreement, Tang'er should come back today at the latest.

Ge Zhou went out to find someone to hire horses.

"grown ups--"

A yamen servant hurried into the inner courtyard, saying that there was a messenger outside asking for an urgent matter.

Xie Jinbai ordered the yamen servant to take the messenger to the side hall to wait for him, then turned around and told Huo Sheng, "If Master Ge finds a horse, lead the horse to wait for me at the back door."

"Yes, my lord."

Xie Jinbai walked into the side hall, and there was a messenger in armor waiting inside.

Seeing Xie Jinbai, the messenger came forward, "Hi, may I ask that you are Xie Huaiyu, magistrate of Fufeng County, Mr. Xie?"

After confirming Xie Jinbai's identity, the messenger took out a bright yellow silk from his bosom, "Xie Jinbai, magistrate of Fufeng County, received the order—"

Xie Jinbai knelt down to listen to the order.

This is a secret decree calling Xie Jinbai back to Beijing.

It turned out that Canglan, a neighbor of Dongqi, had been restless since last autumn.

Since the twelfth lunar month, Cang Lan's cavalry has harassed the Beiye border from time to time.

Just a few days ago, the Canglan cavalry suddenly assembled their forces and launched a fierce offensive against Beiye.

Beiye is the barrier to the north of Dongqi. If Beiye is breached and Canglan cavalry tramples on the capital Yingyang, it will only be a matter of time.

Cang Lan's attack is menacing. In the few fights in recent years, Dong Qi always loses more than wins.

The Uncle and the Queen Mother believed that the war was costing the people and money, and the Canglan barbarians had just spent the winter. The grasslands and pastures were covered with ice and snow, and there was nowhere to graze them.

Since they want money, it's okay to give them. The two sides signed an armistice agreement for a period of peace.

Of course, the uncle and the queen mother were not really worried that they would waste people and money. They were just worried that if they really lost the battle, the Canglan cavalry would come straight to Yingyang, and their glory and wealth would be a thing of the past.

Ji Yunqing, Grand Tutor Xie Yan and others advocated fighting with all their might.

Since the old country of Nansang was destroyed, Ruan Ling has been in internal strife. Compared with the old country of Nansang, the national power has long been incomparable.

On the contrary, Cang Lan has become more and more powerful due to the annexation of the tribe in recent years.

Ji Yunqing, Xie Yan and the others all intend to destroy Cang Lan Yu Weishi, and besides, there is no reason for being bullied at the door of the house and directly paying compensation to seek peace, which is too much for others to destroy their own prestige.

Ji Yunqing has never elaborated in such detail in a secret edict, but the few words about Cang Lan and the situation in the court are enough to make Xie Jinbai instantly understand the current situation of Dongqi's internal and external troubles——

The emperor has not yet ruled personally, Canglan on the border is staring at him, and Ruan Ling is not restless.

Ji Yunqing's secret edict was to call Xie Jinbai back urgently to discuss countermeasures.

In fact, with so many civil and military officials in the imperial court, how did Xie Jinbai, a local county magistrate, get his turn to go back and discuss countermeasures?

To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than the fact that the emperor can't trust those people, he only trusts the Fourth Young Master Xie who walked side by side with him, that's why this secret edict came about.

If it was someone else, they would be very happy to receive this honor.

Xie Jinbai accepted this secret edict, but her heart was quite heavy.

Staying away from the court made him almost forget that it was also in this year, at the end of the year, that he took the initiative to ask Ying to oversee Beiye. It took several years and several times of life and death before he retreated to Canglan outside Beiye.

"Sir, obey the order."

After the messenger finished reading the imperial decree and handed it to Xie Jinbai, he hurriedly bowed his hands to help him up, "My lord! Please get up quickly."

"Master Xie, the matter is urgent and there is no delay. Please, Sir Xie, hurry up and prepare for one or two. The little one is here waiting for you."

"Sorry, I still have some private matters, and I can't get away for the time being. Please give me half a day."

"This……"

The messenger also knew that the county magistrate's identity was not as simple as an ordinary local official, but the fourth son of the Taifu's family and a close friend of the young emperor, so he hesitated for a moment, and gave him extra accommodation, "Okay Let's go. The little one will go back to the post station first and wait. Please thank you for taking the time."

"Thank you."

Xie Jinbai bowed his hands and apologized, the messenger was so flustered that he didn't dare to say anything.

Xie Jinbai went out of the side hall and came to the courtyard, just as Ge Zhou came back from the outside, "My lord, this subordinate has already tied the horse to—"

"I see, thank you."

Xie Jinbai hurried towards the back door.

Staggered past, with a gust of wind.

Master Ge looked worriedly at the figure of Xie Jinbai striding away, "It's rare to see an adult in such a hurry, what's going on?"

Huo Sheng shook his head blankly, "I don't know."

Xie Jinbai took Gezhou's BMW tied to the stake at the back door, and got on the horse.

From Chun'an to Fufeng County, the long and narrow Fufeng Mountain is the only way to go.

Xie Jinbai rode out of Fufeng County and galloped all the way towards Fufeng Mountain.

After walking for about an hour, Xie Jinbai was stopped by a group of soldiers patrolling the mountain on the mountain road.

"Young master, the mountain rocks collapsed in the valley ahead due to the heavy snowstorm, and the road was buried by the rocks and heavy snow. The snowstorm is still falling, and this road is extremely dangerous. You should go back the same way, and wait for the snowstorm to subside. Let's get on the road again."

Xie Jinbai's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words "the rocks collapsed".

Xie Jinbai reined in the reins, and asked in a deep voice, "Excuse me, this soldier, do you know when the rock collapsed, and was anyone buried in the snow?"

The soldier hadn't answered Xie Jinbai's question yet, and he heard someone shouting not far away, "Ghost, ghost~~Ghost~~ah! Help, help~~~"

The shouts continued intermittently in the wind and snow.

The faces of those soldiers suddenly sank.

Fuck!

Yelling and yelling in the mountains on a snowy day, I'm afraid it will take too long!

"Young master, it's the New Year's Eve, so don't let it get you out of your mind and go to Huangquan Road."

After the leading soldier finished speaking to Xie Jinbai, he led the team cautiously into the mountains.

Xie Jinbai followed behind.

Seeing that Xie Jinbai didn't listen to persuasion, the soldier didn't say any more.

They have already kindly warned, if someone rushes to Huangquan Road, what can they do?

"Ghost, ghost! Officers and soldiers, my lord! Ghost! There are ghosts!"

In the snowstorm, a villager with a quiver on his back, dressed like a hunter, scrambled and scrambled to ask for help from the mountain patrol soldiers who were advancing on horseback.

The soldiers didn't believe in being ghosted in broad daylight.

The soldier got off his horse and helped the hunter up, "What happened?"

"That, that, yes, there are ghosts, ghosts!"

Orion pointed forward, trembling all over.

Soldiers would not believe in such a thing as encountering a ghost in broad daylight.

The soldiers got off their horses one after another, led by the head of the soldiers, and walked forward.

The Orion pointed forward, "Right, right there! Just, just, yes, a ghost grabbed my foot and ankle! My lord, I, I really didn't, I didn't lie!!"

The soldiers lowered their heads and took off their scabbards together, using the scabbards to sweep away the snow on the road.

It has snowed heavily in Fufeng County for several days in a row, and the snow on the mountain road is particularly thick. Even if the snow is barely swept away, there is still snow underneath.

"Really, really! Right there!"

The Orion was still trembling.

"Ah! It, it,, it caught me again!"

Orion screamed loudly.

The head of the soldier approached Orion carefully, with one hand on the big knife at his waist.

The wind and snow are blowing on the face, charming eyes.

But in the snowstorm, there was indeed a pair of blood-stained ghost hands holding Orion's ankles.

"Who is playing tricks?!"

The soldier cut off his head with his knife.

With a sound of "clang", the sword in the soldier's head was hit by a snowball flying in mid-air, and his head was deflected.

Xie Jinbai, who got off his horse, walked over with big strides, and said coldly to the soldier, "Idiot. It's a human, save him!"

The soldier said angrily, "Who are you? How dare you be rude to me!"

Even several other soldiers stepped forward in dissatisfaction, staring at Xie Jinbai with hostility.

"I am the county magistrate of Fufeng County. Someone is buried in the snow. I ordered you to rescue the person quickly. There must be no mistakes."

Those soldiers heard that this was the county magistrate of Fufeng County, and hurriedly saluted Xie Jinbai, not daring to do it again, and used their scabbards to dig up the snow on the road to save people.

Because of that dream in the morning, Xie Jinbai is still restless.

Those hands just now, with jade bracelets on their wrists, looked like a woman's hands.

This did not make Xie Jinbai breathe a sigh of relief, but the uneasiness in his heart expanded.

The Orion heard that the person buried under the snow was not a ghost at all, so he hurried to help save the person.

Many people are powerful.

After everyone digging desperately, gradually, a slender figure wearing a crimson cloak was revealed.
