The hot spring was at the top of the mountain. Ye Jinsu followed Ning Yunqi and rode for a while until they saw a trail of melting snow in front of them. As he went deeper, he could actually see balls of hot air.
There was indeed a spring here. The hot spring that emerged from it was shockingly hot. This area was covered by a white mist.
Ye Jinsu dismounted from her horse. She could still see a Silver Fox running through the mist and disappearing into the snow. In the area near the hot spring, there were even some green grass.
"This place is remote and hard to find. I haven't discovered it before." Ning Yun hid behind her as she spoke. Ye Jinxiu turned her head and saw the dense cluster of trees and branches behind her. If it wasn't for the footprints being still there, she probably wouldn't have been able to find her way back.
Very deep indeed.
Ye Jinsu ran over to grab a handful of spring water. It was very pleasing to the eye.
This was a cliff with a broken mountain on the left. Not only was there a spring on the ground, there was also a spring on the mountain. However, the water was rather small, flowing down along the rocks. From the rocks to the places where the spring water had been poured over the ground, there were green sprouts growing out of them.
It was a rare sight to see such a green in this weather.
Ning Yunyin raised her head to look at the top of the cliff and suddenly said, "I'll take you up."
As Ye Jinsu was puzzled, Ning Yunyin held her in her arms. In the blink of an eye, he was already at the top of the cliff.
This area was made of rock and was completely barren of trees. The moment Ye Jinsu landed, she looked down at the entire horse farm from here. Not only that, he could even see the entire capital city.
Ye Jinsu's eyes lit up.
Red wall and white tiles, this scenery is really beautiful.
Ye Jinsu looked at the small square shaped city in the distance and suddenly fell silent. He could still see the outskirts. He could also see the snow-white mountains and rivers outside.
This was the place that Ning Yunyin wanted to own.
She lowered her eyes, only to hear Ning Yunyin sitting down at the side. "Take Lingshuang back," she said.
Ye Jinxiu turned around and looked at him with a puzzled expression. He knew that there was no place for the Ye Family to raise horses.
"Father ordered me to send the troops, so you take care of Lingshuang yourself." Ning Yunxiao gazed at the scenery at the foot of the mountain as he spoke. From here he could feel the heat rising from below, warm and damp.
Ye Jinxiu was a little surprised, "When did it happen?"
Why didn't she have any news?
"Today." Ning Yun said in a low voice. Just now, before he came here, he had received the decree in the great hall.
Ye Jinsu's expression froze and she became speechless for a long time. Then, she suddenly laughed, "You should go and fight. Why did you give Lingshuang to me? I'm going to have to get a stable back. It's a lot of trouble. "
"If you bring it back, you can ride it anytime you want. There's no need for you to ride it back here." Ning Yunyin said. The reason he didn't mention this earlier was because he was thinking that if Ye Jinsu wanted to ride a horse, he would have to come here.
At that time, he could come over and see her as well.
However, since he had already gone to fight, he might as well not let her go through so much trouble.
Ye Jinxiu lowered her eyes and nodded. She could be considered to have agreed.
She was silent for a moment. Neither of them spoke, but something was always tacit. Silence spread between the two of them. The tranquility caused Ye Jinsu to feel uneasy in her heart.
"Why did the Emperor send you out at this time?" Ye Jinxiu turned her head to look at him and asked in the end.
Ning Yunliang smiled and started to analyze the situation with her, "Two months ago, the king of the Western Lion Kingdom passed away. His fifth son became the king, but it is said that his fifth son holds political power. Now that he has ascended to the throne, he has begun to harass our borders and infiltrate our capital secretly. "
"The Emperor naturally cannot tolerate his presumptuous behavior."
Ye Jinsu frowned slightly.
"You know that's not what I'm asking."
"Why does the emperor want you to go? There are so many generals, can't others do the same?" Ye Jinsu frowned. With the current situation, the Qi King had just suffered a setback and the Emperor was about to send Ning Yunyin to fight at the border.
Wasn't this oppressing him?
"The imperial edict cannot be disobeyed." Ning Yunyin only spoke indifferently.
He had a look of indifference on his face.
"How long will it take?"
"One year."
Not an uncertain answer, but a simple, straightforward year.
For a moment she wanted to say, I'll wait a year for you.
But in the end she said nothing, only knew that this battle was nothing like the last.
She pursed her lips and remained silent. After a long while, Ye Jinsu asked again, "Is it easy to fight?"
She didn't understand much about military matters, but she knew that fighting was hard to avoid getting hurt, and danger was hard to avoid. The last time Ning Yunyin had come back, she was already wounded. Who knew what would happen to her this time?
"Do you believe me?" Ning Yunyin didn't look at her. Instead, she looked at the scenery at the foot of the mountain. Her voice was somewhat muffled.
Ye Jinsu was silent for a long time before she finally gave up and said, "I believe you."
Actually, she wanted to say that there was no absolute in this world. She also wanted to say that whether she believed it or not would not solve any problems.
However, when Ning Yunyin asked him if he trusted her, she could only reply with a look of trust.
Seemingly sensing the helplessness in Ye Jinsu's tone, Ning Yun smiled. She turned her body to the side and stroked Ye Jinsu's hair, saying in a low voice, "Then, wait for my triumphant return."
Ye Jinsu pushed him away with an expressionless face.
"I don't believe it now."
How could Ning Yunyin be at ease when she said such words?
Ye Jinsu's heart was in a mess.
"Let's go down. Little Red should be anxious by now." Ye Jinsu pursed her lips and said. They had only sat here for a short period of time, but Ye Jinxiu still couldn't sit down.
Ning Yunyin was silent for a moment before answering.
A layer of black clouds appeared on Ye Jinsu's face. Even in this snow-white world, it was not bright.
When Xiao Hong and Supervisor Mu arrived at the foot of the mountain, gasping for breath. They were glad that they made it in time as soon as they saw Ye Jinsu.
It was late.
It would be dark in another two hours.
Ye Jinsu dismounted from her horse and touched Lingshuang, then said to Xiao Hong, "Let's go back and get someone to build a stable in the backyard and bring Lingshuang back."
Xiao Hong was surprised.
"In this weather, the stables have been built for at least half a month. Why is it so sudden?"
Ye Jinsu didn't answer.
Seeing that Ye Jinxiu did not want to continue, Little Red did not ask any further questions. She could feel that after the Miss came down from the mountain, her mood wasn't right.
Xiao Hong looked at Ning Wang doubtfully, only to discover that Ning Yunxiao was looking at Ye Jinsu.
His gaze seemed a little gloomy.
Little Red lowered its head and followed Ye Jinsu into the room to change clothes.
"Young Miss doesn't seem to be in a good mood. Did Prince Ning say something?" Xiao Hong asked from the side.
Ye Jinsu thought that her actions were natural enough.
She shook her head.
Ning Yunyun had already left.
Ye Jinsu looked at Lingshuang, who was in the stable, and got into the carriage without a word.
It was still snowing outside.
It was now twelve, and in ten days it would be the new year. People in the capital were preparing for the New Year's feast with lanterns and decorations. The atmosphere was already filled with the atmosphere of New Year's Eve.
The House of Ye had decided on the marriage. They planned to prepare a joyous event next spring and in May.
It was a lively scene everywhere.
Only her heart was cold.
