Luo Lingwei knew that she was already late, and already quite a few days late. If he did not appear in time, this war would be meaningless. Therefore, she didn't stay too long in Yian County. After reorganizing her carriage and horses, she directly took the quickest public road. After all, she didn't care about any danger anymore. Moreover, this was the only road that led from Yian County to the Fringe. A few guards took turns to drive the carriage as they changed their mounts for the carriage. Luo Lingwei brought Xiaoqing and Liu Feiyan to sit in one carriage while the others sat in another.
Just like this, after seven or eight bumpy days, they finally reached the border. After the identity was verified, the border guards brought a few people to Luo Tianhe's stronghold. At this moment, the reward from the imperial court for this great victory had also arrived, along with the superstition that had been secretly sent over by Ye Lianhe. The letter mentioned the assassination attempt on Luo Lingwei, which caused Luo Tianhe's heart to leap into his throat. He had originally thought that this son-in-law of his would be able to protect his daughter, Zhou Quan. However, this trip to the border, Luo Lingwei had almost lost her life. This caused Luo Tianhe to rethink the situation.
When Luo Tianhe heard that his daughter had arrived at the military stronghold, he didn't even have the time to put on his armor before he hurried out to welcome her. He originally thought that he only had two daughters in his life. If his daughter were to marry in the future, no matter how well she married, she would only be a woman from a wealthy family. He hadn't thought that there would be a day where he would be able to fight alongside his daughter.
Luo Tianhe quickly brought everyone to the military stronghold and introduced them to his trusted aides and generals. Luo Tianhe's heart ached as he looked at Luo Lingwei, who was covered in dust. He didn't care about what the others were thinking, directly instructing his soldiers to prepare a warm tent for Luo Lingwei to rest up in.
Whether or not Luo Lingwei declined was because she was too tired along the way. After arriving at the military tent, the moment Luo Lingwei laid down, she fell asleep. This sleep of his lasted for a day. After waking up the next day, Luo Lingwei brought Xiaoqing, Zhang Long, and the others to pay their respects to Luo Tianhe and the other generals. At this moment, everyone was having their breakfast within the army. However, it was just mixed grains, porridge, rice wine, and so on. It could ensure that one's strength would not weaken after eating it, and it could also prevent one's body from feeling the cold. In the end, Luo Lingwei was too picky with her words. She was still unable to accept military food. However, Luo Lingwei endured the urge to sweep through all the food in front of her. After all, if they showed any bad manners, people would think they despised the life in the military.
After having their breakfast, Luo Lingwei began to discuss the matter regarding the Barbarian Clan incident with Luo Tianhe. This was also the longest conversation between Luo Tianhe and Luo Lingwei over the years.
At this time, the carriage that Zhao Wei had secretly arranged had arrived. On top of the carriage were two carts of jewelry and various types of gems. He thought to himself, luckily Zhao Wei arranged everything properly in advance, or else if he encountered this kind of situation, he wouldn't know what to do. Recalling the sight of Zhao Wei being beaten to the brink of death, it caused a sharp pain in her heart.
After everything had been prepared, Luo Tianhe led two prisoners and five thousand elite soldiers with Luo Lingwei and the others as they marched mightily into the grassland. After travelling for two or three days, they arrived at the place where Luo Tianhe had defeated the two prisoners.
The barbarians had been beaten into a miserable state by Luo Tianhe. However, Luo Tianhe had warned his soldiers not to be arrogant. Otherwise, they would be beheaded in the future to receive rewards. Fortunately, these soldiers were veterans who had followed him for many years. They knew what their marshal was worried about.
After sending the two prisoners back to the side of the barbarians, Luo Lingwei and the others waited in a big tent. This tent had been personally built by Luo Tianhe's men. Although it was a temporary structure, it was extremely warm.
This place was located on a riverbank where the barbarians and the Great Xuan were at the border of the land. The riverbank had just melted. Although the Xuan King was still full of life and death at this time, the cold wind was still piercing the bones of the people at the border of May. I thought back to my original world, the Mongol plateau in May, the wind blowing across my face, still as painful as a knife.
Not long after, a mournful horn sounded from outside the tent, and the sounds of horses' hooves galloping could be heard. Luo Lingwei's expression did not change as she continued to sit beside the stove while staring at the dancing flames. Several barbarian envoys walked in one after another. The curtain was raised behind them.
Luo Lingwei turned around and saw these burly men wearing woolen coats. She revealed a faint smile and greeted them. When the few of them saw Luo Lingwei, they were stunned.
"Didn't you say that you people of Central Plains have lined up as emissaries to negotiate with us?" Why is there only one woman? " One of them coldly snorted.
"Who said that women are inferior to men?" Luo Lingwei laughed and replied.
