The annual holiday has not yet passed, and the village is still as lively as usual.

When Ruixue heard the news, Zhao Fengnian had already brought Qi Qilu to the gate of the courtyard.

Qiqilu was silent all the way, and when he saw Ruixue, he curled his mouth and burst into tears.

There was no longer the stinky monkey-like appearance before, he took a few steps forward, and simply plunged into Ruixue's arms and cried loudly.

It made Ruixue a little bit at a loss, thinking that he was a child, with no relatives and no reason, and suffered such a crime again.

Just narrowly escaped, vulnerable, normal.

She raised her hand and patted him on the back, coaxing softly.

"Okay, okay, didn't you always say that you are a man, why are you still crying. Others should laugh at you later."

Qiqilu sobbed a few times, then stopped crying, and looked up a little embarrassed.

He said pitifully to Ruixue, "Thank you sister for saving me."

His eyes were pure, with a little worry that shouldn't be shown at his age.

Rui Xue stroked the braid on the back of his head, not knowing how to comfort the child.

Looking up, he saw Zhao Fengnian standing opposite him, and nodded to him with a smile.

He patted Qi Qilu and said: "It is King Ning who protects you well. He is the one you should thank. If one day you can return to your hometown, don't forget it."

Qiqilu's eyes flickered, and his heart was extremely conflicted.

Zhao Feng coughed young, interrupted the conversation between the two, and said to Xiao Liu who was following Rui Xue.

"Take him to wash, change into clean clothes, and watch him before you go back."

Ruixue frowned slightly, and understood what Zhao Fengnian said. Even though Qi Qilu was still a child, he was still a child who stood up to the little prince of Beique.

She was soft-hearted and saved him for a while, so they couldn't treat him like an ordinary child.

What I said just now was a bit superfluous.

If he grows up and really returns to Beique, he will always be an enemy of Dalan.

The hand on Qi Qilu's shoulder froze involuntarily, and he looked at Zhao Fengnian with a guilty conscience.

Qiqilu's sympathy has also turned into worry about the future.

Since Zhao Fengnian dared to bring Qi Qilu to the village, it should mean that he has resolved the threat.

Will not bring dangerous people or things to my side.

Smilingly said to Zhao Fengnian: "Happy New Year, my lord."

Zhao Fengnian was stunned for a moment, then he also laughed: "Happy New Year, Wanwan."

Jing Feng followed behind the two of them, a bit blindsided to see when his general spoke to them in such a soft voice.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have wondered if his general had been possessed by something dirty.

He coughed uncomfortably.

Just as Zhao Fengnian was about to hold Ruixue's hand, he couldn't help taking it back.

A layer of frost hung on his face, and he turned his head to look at Jingfeng.

That look clearly questioned Jingfeng, you better be busy.

Jingfeng raised his brows, suddenly felt something was wrong, hurriedly took out a letter from his bosom, stepped forward, and handed it to Ruixue.

"Ma'am, this is the letter Miss Gu Fu entrusted me to bring to you, please keep it."

Ruixue was a little surprised: "Gu Jingjue?" She took the letter and looked at it, and there was indeed Gu Jingjue's handwriting on the envelope.

Turning around and going back to the house to read the letter, Zhao Fengnian took a step forward, but in the end he couldn't keep up.

Looking back at Jingfeng, his face became even darker.

"follow me."

Hua Luo walked towards the house where he lived before, Jing Feng brushed the broken hair on his forehead, and followed.

In the room, Jingfeng told Zhao Fengnian what he saw and heard in Gu's mansion verbatim.

Some worried: "General, now headed by Prime Minister Zuo, many people are staring at General Gu, why don't I go back to the north with him, so you can rest assured."

Zhao Fengnian shook his head: "No need, no need for doubters, no doubts about employing people. I have already made an appointment with Jiang Huai, and he is like this now because he sees that I am weak and wants to find a way out."

The new clothes were crumpled from riding a horse.

"Besides, the Northern Territory is not what they imagined. Temporarily attracting Gu Chengyun can be infiltrated. The strength of General Gu Can lead the army is not inferior to mine, and now only he can go to the Northern Territory to make the people in the Northern Territory less Got a little harassed."

Can't go back, Jingfeng is obviously a little bit disappointed, not because of himself, mostly because of Zhao Fengnian.

Zhao Fengnian tidied up his clothes and raised his head to meet Shang Jingfeng's slightly disappointed gaze.

"You don't have to follow me every day. If you really want to go back to the north, there is no way."

Jing Feng was a little flustered: "I didn't mean that. Is the general really willing to be trapped in the capital? If you want me to say..."

"To shut up!"

Zhao Fengnian was rarely angry, "Don't even think about this kind of thing in the future."

Jingfeng didn't dare to say any more, pleaded guilty and left the house.

Zhao Fengnian naturally knew what Jingfeng was talking about, if he really wanted to leave, the Holy One couldn't stop him.

But so what, it caused a shock in the court and was labeled as rebellious and rebellious.

Even if they go back to the northern border, without Dalan's financial and material support, how long can the soldiers and civilians guarding the northern border withstand the Beique people's iron cavalry.

When the mountains and rivers are broken, how can he be worthy of the ancestors who founded Dalan's country.

There are some things, not that Zhao Fengnian can't do it, but that he can't do it.

He knew that Jingfeng and his personal guards who had followed him for many years felt aggrieved and unfair because of his current situation.

But as the prince of Da Lan and the general of the northern border, he couldn't just focus on the present.

Rui Xue took Gu Jingjue's letter back to the house.

Rong Niang was a little nervous and stared at her with wide eyes.

"King Ning is here, my business, don't worry about it."

Ruixue looked up at her and waved her hand.

"Don't worry, he's not a talkative person. He doesn't know who you are even if he can't even meet you."

Rong Niang breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.

"I'm just afraid of causing trouble for you. After all, King Ning's current situation is not that good. I think it's better for me to leave the capital earlier."

Ruixue shook the letter in her hand towards Rongniang.

"Gu Jingjue is going to the north with her father."

"Really." Rong Niang came over and read the letter with Rui Xue.

"Otherwise, I won't go to the capital of the northern border, and change to a place where I can stagger with her, so as not to meet her and cause trouble again."

Rongniang said worriedly, wanting Ruixue to make up her mind.

Ruixue patted the back of Rongniang's hand: "How can we do that? It's been planned a long time ago. Besides, the shantang in the north is almost ready. If we change the place, wouldn't all our previous efforts be in vain. I Where else do you go to find someone who can take good care of you?"

Rong Niang was a little anxious, and she couldn't care less about reading the rest of Gu Jingjue's letter.

"Why don't you let her take care of this philanthropic hall, and I'll go somewhere else."

Ruixue tugged on Rongniang's sleeve to tell her to calm down.

"Why are you panicking? She didn't mention Shantang at all. She came to me because she had something else to say."
