The subtle fragrance of cotton needles

Chapter 253 Northwest is also good

Mo Yuchen and Xia Zhibai looked at each other, and neither of them dared to go out to look for Xia Yanxiang.

Yue Qing checked Li Fu's pulse in the back, packed up his things, and said, "Bo Er and the Marquis are not injured. They have been very tired these days. Just make sure you rest."

After saying that, Yue Qing also went out.

After leaving the tent, Xia Yanxiang was hit hard on the face by the dusty wind. It stung a little, but she became much more sober.

After walking a few steps, Xia Yan's scent became more comfortable. She was secretly annoyed. What happened today? Why did she get so angry with Luo Xie?

At this moment, Dongfang Xujiang, who had counted the elite troops for the peace talks, came over and saw Xia Yanxiang wearing ordinary soldier armor: "Sister Yanxiang?"

Xia Yanxiang was thinking about her own things when she was suddenly interrupted by Dongfang Xujiang: "Brother Xujiang?"

"What's wrong? Why are you dressed like this today?"

Xia Yanxiang shook her head: "Nothing, I'll be back soon."

"It's not peaceful today, you should go back to your tent first! Be careful." Dongfang Xujiang nodded, but then he felt something was wrong, "Otherwise, my brother's tent is just ahead, go in and wait for a while, I'll send you back after I finish my report?"

Just as Xia Yanxiang was about to speak, Yueqing came out first: "Jiang'er, go report first, I'll take Yan girl back."

Since Yue Qing had spoken, Dongfang Xujiang felt relieved: "Okay."

After saying that, Dongfang Xujiang and Xia Yanxiang looked at each other and then left.

Xia Yanxiang turned around: "Master's wife."

Yue Qing walked forward and walked side by side with Xia Yanxiang: "Don't be too angry about what happened today, and take care of your body."

Xia Yanxiang knew that being angry was bad for her health, so she nodded obediently: "I don't know why I was so angry. I didn't control myself."

Yue Qing turned his head gently, reached out and patted Xia Yanxiang on the shoulder: "Don't be too hard on yourself. It's normal to get angry occasionally. If you keep holding it in, it won't be good for you."

"Today you should just be too concerned."

Yue Qing explained to Xia Yanxiang the reason why she lost her composure today, and Xia Yanxiang suddenly understood.

"Today's peace talks are of great importance. You are right to be cautious. That's why you got so angry when General Luo questioned you." Yue Qing continued to comfort Xia Yanxiang, "Today is really dangerous. I'm afraid you can't avoid the war later. You have to be careful."

Xia Yanxiang finally regained her sanity: "I know, I have also discussed this with Master. We will make more adjustments to the hidden weapons on the West Mountain and pay more attention to the subsequent battles."

Yue Qing nodded: "Very good. But it is a bit too dangerous for you to go out rashly today. You must be more careful in the future. Disguise is not omnipotent. What if you are discovered and no one is by your side? "

Yue Qing's tone was one of slight worry, without a trace of blame.

"I was too anxious today, afraid that something might go wrong during the talks, so I left in a hurry." Xia Yanxiang now thinks back that she was indeed a little careless at the time. There were spies around Mo Yuchen, and they might attack her.

As they were talking, the two of them had already walked to Xia Yanxiang's tent. Yue Qing raised his hand to the guard beside him, opened the tent and went in.

Li Guan was waiting inside and was extremely anxious. If Yun Wu hadn't been holding her down, she would have rushed out to find Xia Yanxiang long ago.

Seeing Xia Yanxiang and Yue Qing coming in, Yun Wu could no longer hold back and left.

"Ayan!" Li Guan rushed over anxiously, and with his uninjured right hand he pulled Xia Yanxiang up and down to check her. His eyes were red and he looked very aggrieved. "Where did you go? You just left me a letter and ran away without telling me where you were going. Did you want to scare me to death?!"

Xia Yanxiang reached out and touched Li Guan's head: "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just went to check on He Tan from a distance. I'm not injured. What's more, I have changed my appearance. I'm fine."

"Peace talks?!" Li Guan was even more anxious after hearing this. "I heard that something went wrong with the peace talks. Are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay. I just went to Xishan. Nothing happened." Xia Yanxiang concealed her relationship with Luo Xie. Li Guan had a hot temper. If she knew about it, who knows what would happen.

Yun Wu exchanged a glance with Yue Qing behind her.

Li Guan carefully observed Xia Yanxiang's expression and found that she did not seem to be lying, so he felt relieved: "That's good, that's good."

Xia Zhibai discussed the battle all night long. Luo Xie came later to report on the head count. He was still a little nervous. Xia Zhibai listened and asked him to stay and discuss it together.

Luo Xie was nervous the whole night and didn't hear what Xia Zhibai or Mo Yuchen said to him.

When Luo Xie went out to count the number of people, he realized that what Xia Yanxiang said was right. He broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that Xia Zhibai or Mo Chen would have some opinions or make things difficult for him.

Fortunately, Xia Zhibai and Mo Yuchen were focused on the war and did not say anything.

"Today's incident has caused too much trouble. According to Yan'er, the Rouran will attack us the day after tomorrow at the latest." Xia Zhibai said the last words.

Mo Yuchen nodded: "It seems that we don't have much time left for training. Tomorrow I will go and check the situation of the troops with Mr. Dongfang."

"Okay, Luo Xie, you must personally check the bows and arrows on the East Mountain and those on the city wall again. Check carefully and be careful of spies."

"Yes."

"We must win the first battle to boost the morale of the army," Xia Zhibai said with a serious expression. "Uncle, I need you to command from the tower. When the enemy is at the gates of the city, I will go out in person."

Xia Zhibai clearly felt the severity of this battle: "I just hope that the spies tonight can bring accurate information."

The atmosphere in the military camp was very solemn. Those who had left the pass only knew that the peace talks were not going well and that a war might break out, but they had no idea of ​​the severity of the war.

Xia Yanxiang knew it and didn't sleep the whole night.

When the sky was just getting light, Xia Yanxiang couldn't lie down any longer, so she got up and left the tent, leaving Yukui with Li Guan.

The weather in the northwest was too dry, so dry that Xia Yanxiang's face hurt. It was really cold when she got up in the morning, so Xia Yanxiang put on a cloak and went out.

Xia Yanxiang didn't know where to go alone, and with He Yuan following her, she wasn't worried and walked until she reached the top of the city wall.

Looking at the vast expanse of white land below the city wall, Xia Yanxiang couldn't help but murmur, "What's so good about the northwest? It's clearly a place where people's lives can be lost..."

"The capital is also a place where people can die. I think the Northwest is also good. At least you don't die at the hands of your own people." A very familiar voice came from behind Xia Yanxiang.

Xia Yanxiang turned around and saw the person she expected.
