C12

She gathered up her courage and stepped forward. The soldiers standing guard outside the door saw her and shouted, "Where are you from? This is the barracks. Go and beg somewhere else."

"Little brothers, I'm not a beggar. My husband is joining the army at your place. His name is Nie Rufeng, we're here to find him."

The city guards remained unmoved, waving their hands to allow her to leave.

Since she had already reached the military camp, if she could not see the child's father, then she would not have wasted so much time and effort.

After dawdling for nearly two hours, the few generals became a bit impatient when they saw that she was still not leaving. "Our general is out hunting. It looks like he'll be back soon. You should leave quickly, lest you displease the general."

Su Zhi did not say anything as she brought the two of them to sit by the side of the road.

The soldiers guarding the city wall wanted to expel her, but they were interrupted by the sound of rapid horse hooves. They thought to themselves, "Not good!"

The general is back!

The sky was filled with rolling sand, flying sand and flying rocks. A thousand elite cavalry soldiers trod on the dust and shattered the wind as they rushed over from the other side of the road.

The long rainbow, Jinguo Tie Ma, Zhang Chi, well-trained.

Su Zhi quickly covered the two children in her arms and waited for the group to approach with narrowed eyes.

"The general is back! Open the gates!"

The huge pulley made a dull noise, and with a loud bang, the bridge that connected to the moat was laid flat on the yellow ground.

The leader of the soldiers split into two groups and made a path. In the middle of the path, a man wearing silver armor and riding a plagiarist slowly came out.

He was a burly man with a narrow waist and broad shoulders. He held a long sword in his hand and used a dagger to protect himself.

Although his expression could not be seen, the murderous aura around him could not be concealed. It was as cold as ice and as stable as a boulder.

"Cough, cough, cough."

The sandstorm was so strong that Su Zhi could not help but cough. That person had excellent hearing and looked at her with the side of his eyes.

The moment she was stared at by him, Su Zhi felt the air pressure around her freeze.

This man's aura was really strong. He did not get angry, but his gaze was sharp. Looking at him directly, her entire body felt numb and uncomfortable.

"Who is here?"

The soldier guarding the city hurried forward to explain, "General, this person said that he is a family member of the army, so this servant did not dare to let her in presumptuously, and is afraid of being a spy."

Su Zhi calmed down, endured the numbness in her legs and approached the troop, trying to give a brief introduction of her origins.

"My wife, Su Zhi, is the wife of Nie Rufeng. My husband hasn't returned to the army for half a year, and his family is suffering from a drought. I brought two children with me to seek my husband's approval."

That person didn't say anything. Immediately, a guard behind him came forward and explained, "General, that Nie Ru Feng …"

He raised his hand to interrupt the guard, and then looked at Su Zhi, whose face was covered in dirt and clothes were in tatters. As he looked down, he coincidentally saw the small bean bun looking around with its big round eyes.

The kid didn't seem to be afraid of living, and when he saw that someone was staring at him, he didn't show any weakness and looked back. Seeing that there was a golden tiger with white foreheads behind the man's horse, it grinned and patted him with its two short hands, as if it was praising him.

A Jin quickly pulled down the hem of her dress, trying to distract her.

The man's ice-cold brows softened. After he shifted his gaze away, he said, "Let them in."

"Yes, sir!"

With the command from the general, no one disobeyed. Su Zhi entered the army camp very smoothly.

They were taken to a barracks, where a general brought them new clothes, not the best of which, but much better than the clothes they were wearing.

After running for so many days, it was time to wash up.

She didn't dare to trouble others too much and went to the kitchen to boil water and bathe. Since she was in the military camp, she didn't dare to see too many doctors and women.

Only after she had washed up and put on the simple and generous female attire did she dare to go out and ask the little general about Nie Rufeng.

Now that she was in the military camp, it wouldn't be difficult for her to meet her husband.

The general, who had been questioned, had not noticed Su Zhi previously. He only knew that the general had let in a woman with a disheveled appearance to look for a wife, but he had not expected her to be so beautiful and moving after she had been dressed up.

However, Su Zhi could still see through a plain, unadorned set of clothes. It was extremely elegant, with a light breeze, and a faintly discernible fragrance.

A few of the generals blushed as their Adam's apple bobbed up and down. They could only shake their heads and say that they weren't familiar with each other before leaving in a hurry.
