Since MO Ruyue had already said so, Wei Yi, Wei Er, and Chun Hua did not say anything else. However, the aroma of the roasted meat and sauce they ate drifted far away.
The people passing by outside the courtyard all wanted to see what was so fragrant in the courtyard.
However, the courtyard door was closed, so she couldn’t see anything.
Chun Hua, who had finished eating, quickly stewed some meat that they had bought here, added the seasonings they had brought, and made a few pieces of sauce. They could eat for two days on the road, and it was not far from the next station in two days.
They rested at the relay station for a night and left at dawn the next day. Just like that, they basically didn’t stop on the road and arrived at their destination two days earlier than expected.
Chun Hua saw that there were actually people living in such a cold place. Moreover, wasn’t there a war here? Why weren’t these people leaving?
However, looking at the cold and snowy weather, she knew that these people probably had nowhere to go. Moreover, it was easy to get out of here, but it was hard to say if they could come back.
Perhaps they would die on the way, starve to death, or be eaten by wolves, tigers, and leopards. Thinking of this, it was indeed better to live here as long as possible
This village should be the most remote village on the border, and also the last village
When MO Ruyue led two thousand soldiers past them, the hopeful looks on their faces dimmed.
At this moment, in the general’s tent, Gu Ying and the general were plotting their next move. Suddenly, a soldier came to the door and stood outside the tent to report.
“Reporting to Great General, 800 meters away from the camp, a 2,000-strong Xiliang army has arrived!”
The general had a face full of question marks. He didn’t ask for reinforcements?
Even if they did, they couldn’t just support 2,000 people, right?
What could two thousand do?
At the end of the battle, two thousand people might be able to decide the outcome, but at this time, two thousand people could not be used as a bargaining chip.
“Send someone to ask what’s going on.”
“Let me go.”
Gu Ying stood up and felt that this matter should not be underestimated. If the enemy pretended to sneak into their camp, it would not be good.
The Great General did not hesitate and nodded to let Gu Ying personally take a look. He was the most at ease.
“Bring a few more people over.”
MO Ruyue had been waiting here with two thousand soldiers. She was exhausted after half a month’s journey.
She had thought that after she arrived, she would find a soldier to inform them that she was here to look for Gu Ying. However, before they could say anything, the soldiers guarding the camp raised a row of arrows at them.
“Princess, how could they do this?”
“We already said that we’re here to look for the Prince Consort. Why don’t they believe us?
“Could it be that there was someone in the military camp who specifically went against the Prince Consort?”
Chun Hua really couldn’t understand. They had already introduced themselves, but the soldiers still had looks of disdain on their faces, as if what she said was a lie. However, what she said was clearly true!
“What do you know? This way, we can better guard against external enemies.”
“If they let in a random person who said that he was looking for someone or his fiancé, what if it was an enemy spy?
Chun Hua’s eyes widened when she heard the princess’ words. That’s true, why was she so stupid?
“Then what should we do? Are we just going to wait here?”
If they were to shoot, what would they do?
Chun Hua looked at those archers and felt that if they relaxed in the next moment, or if their hands got a little sore and let go of the arrows in their hands?
Chun Hua was afraid just thinking about it. She took a few steps toward MO Ruyue, blocking the line of sight of those who were raising their arrows.
“Don’t worry. Although we only have two thousand people here, it’s not a small group.”
As long as someone came, they would at least be at the level of a small manager. They would at least be able to understand what they were saying.
They waited in the snow for a while. At first, they were still in the mood to enjoy the snow scenery here, but after a while, they were shivering from the cold. If they didn’t take a break, they would probably freeze to death here.
The cloak and hat were not that useful. The main thing was not that their body was really that cold, but that their minds needed rest.
MO Ruyue felt like a long time had passed, but in reality, it had only been fifteen minutes. Finally, a few people came out of the camp.
The leader had a full beard and wore a wolf-skin hat. The brim of the hat was very low, and one could vaguely see his two eyes. Below the nose was a full beard.
MO Ruyue felt a sense of familiarity from this person.
She felt that she might have missed Gu Ying too much. Those people all looked like him, but when she took a closer look, none of them were him.
When the bearded general saw the 2,000-man army, his heart skipped a beat. It couldn’t be what he thought, right?!
He had just received MO Ruyue’s reply yesterday, but she did not say anything.
The closer he got to the person sitting on the horse, the more he saw that she resembled the person he had been thinking about day and night.
MO Ruyue was tightly wrapped in a cloak and also wore a mink fur hat. Similarly, only her eyes were exposed. When she got closer, those eyes looked really familiar.
“Who are you? What’s the matter?”
“Princess, its the Prince Consort’s voice!”
Chun Hua recognized Gu Ying’s voice and immediately jumped off the horse happily, not caring about the pain on her inner leg.
She looked at the crowd again and again, but she did not see anyone who was her family’s Prince Consort!
MO Ruyue looked at the bearded little leader and recalled the first time she saw Gu Ying. Wasn’t he her Prince Consort?
MO Ruyue lifted the hood covering her mouth, revealing her small face.
Before she could speak, Gu Ying walked forward quickly, and the soldiers behind him quickly followed.
“Xue Jiang, you can’t!”
The closer Gu Ying got to MO Ruyue, the more he realized that she was the person he had been thinking about day and night!
He looked at Wei Yi and Wei Er who were standing beside MO Ruyue, as well as the maidservant beside her. Wasn’t that Chun Hua? He couldn’t care less about anything else and quickly ran forward.
At this moment, MO Ruyue also dismounted from her horse.
“Yue, is that you?
“I am MO Ruyue.”
MO Ruyue also ran toward Gu Ying. The two of them met in the middle of the
two groups and hugged each other tightly.
This scene caused both sides to stare in shock.
Hey, hey, hey, is this something humans do?
They were treating the thousands of people like air!
Gu Ying snapped out of his daze and released MO Ruyue, letting her look at him in the eye. His tone was stern.
“Why are you here? Who asked you to come? What are you doing here?”
“Don’t you know what this place is? “Is this a place you can come to casually?”
“Hurry up and go back!”
MO Ruyue stretched out her hand towards Chun Hua, and Chun Hua took out a token from her bag and placed it in MO Ruyue’s hand.
“Look, I have a written order. I’m here legally.”
Gu Ying also saw that the token was indeed real.
“Then you can’t stay here either. It’s simply too ridiculous. Be obedient and go back quickly.”
“I’m not messing around. I miss you.”
MO Ruyue’s casual words successfully stopped Gu Ying from reprimanding him. His originally stern tone had changed.
“Then… Then I would stay here for two days before going back..”
