Ye Donglan fell into the memory, raised his chin, and slowly started to talk.

"We have known each other for a long time, when I was still in the army."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and glanced at Jiang Shu. Seeing that Jiang Shu was staring at him energetically, he continued to preach.

"I don't know if you remember that year when I rushed thousands of miles to rescue the besieged Youyang."

That time, it was winter, there was heavy snow, the sky was full of white snow, and there was nothing on the ground except horseshoe prints. The snow on the mountain road was trampled by horses a lot, and there were some signs of melting.

Youyang City is close to the residence of the Abu people in Mobei. The Abu people live as nomads and are always simple and kind.

But their kindness and simplicity caused them to go hungry in winter. The new leader was finally disturbed by the status quo and decided to raise troops. He was the first to besiege Youyang. Not daring to act rashly, the city defenses were lax, and they almost lost the city to the Abu people for a while.

When Ye Donglan was in danger, he was ordered to bring five thousand fine riders to rescue Youyang from the military camp on the edge of the desert.

After successfully repelling the Abu soldiers, Ye Donglan didn't enter the city, so he asked the soldiers to rest in place, and Ye Donglan wandered around by himself.

The governor of Youyang City was frightened, and quickly rearranged the city's defenses.

Ye Donglan didn't look carefully, but walked slowly towards the hillside outside the city.

On the hillside, he picked up a girl.

The girl has a thin body and is wearing a red cloak. The fur collar on the edge of the cloak is whiter than snow. Her face is red from the cold, as if she has been lying here for a long time.

He hesitated again and again, but still couldn't bear it, and took the girl back, but suddenly asked Youyang's governor to open the door.

Inspector Youyang introduced Ye Donglan in very well, and when he got closer, he could clearly see a beautiful lady in his arms, who looked like a fairy

"Ask the people at the post station to boil a pot of hot water and send some more quilts."

Ye Donglan took him directly to the station, invited a doctor to see him, and took good care of him.

The next day the girl woke up and introduced herself that her name was Wan Xiang. She was originally a woman from the Abu tribe. Because of the war, she lost her father and her mother remarried, and she has been displaced all these years.

Ye Donglan's heart was moved with compassion, listening to what Wan Xiang said,

"I was passing through Youyang. Seeing the chaos at the gate of Youyang, I dared not approach. I was walking along the path in the forest. I didn't expect to faint on the path.

"During the war, the girl's family should seldom come out to show their faces, so as not to encounter troubles, and if they lose their lives, the loss will not be worth the loss."

Wan Xiang bent her lips, and her pair of light-colored copper kernels seemed to be filled with sadness, "It doesn't matter whether I lose my life or not. My parents are dead, and my own life is meaningless. It's better to..."

Ye Donglan hesitated for a moment, and told Wan Xiang many things about his youth and frivolity. When it came to his parents, his heart was also rarely heavy.

"My condolences." Wan Xiang said,

Wan Xiang listened very seriously, and did not forget to comfort Ye Donglan.

Ye Donglan smiled comprehensibly, "I may die someday after galloping on the battlefield all day long, so it's a good thing that I don't have any worries.

Wan Xiang pursed her lips tightly, not knowing what to say.

The next day, Wan Xiang had almost recovered, Ye Donglan took Wan Xiang out from Youyang, and started the return journey with the army.

On the way, Wan Xiang was attracting butterflies all the way, and the butterflies in winter flew around Wan Xiang, Ye Donglan also found it novel.

Wan Xiang took out a handful of incense powder from her cuff, and said that she made it herself. Ye Donglan saw that she was quite experienced in blending fragrances, and later asked someone to send her to Yangsu, where there were many flowers, and opened the incense powder with one hand. Xiangge.

"She is also a legendary woman."

Jiang Shu couldn't help admiring.
