The new crossbow arrows developed by the Shaofu Supervisor in Beijing have secretly arrived in Jinyun City in the past few days and were assembled for Youyun Sixteenth Cavalry.

The new crossbow arrows have greatly improved in terms of power and range compared to the previous crossbow arrows, and are lighter and easier to carry.

Such weapons can be said to be very intimidating to the Tatar tribe's rangers. Although they are assembled in secret, there is still an atmosphere of joy among the sixteen riders these days.

Except Xiao Yunyue.

It is obvious to the naked eye that Xiao Yunyue has been in a very bad mood recently. Although he still handles military affairs as usual every day and often patrols the border with others, if there is a task to face Xiao Yunyue directly recently, everyone will avoid it if they can.

Seriously speaking, Xiao Yunyue is very businesslike. He will never cause trouble for you, get angry at you, or vent his emotions on innocent people for no reason.

But once Xiao Yunyue catches an oversight that shouldn't have occurred, just wait to be scolded by him.

Even when patrolling outside Jinyun City with his people, Xiao Yunyue rarely tolerated the provocation from Tata'er's rangers. He is also extremely talented in archery and has amazing arm strength.

During the last patrol, a long arrow shot from a drawn bow connected two Tatar soldiers together and nailed them directly to the ground from their horses.

Therefore, recently even the Tatar tribe's rangers rarely come within five miles of Jinyun City.

Fan Wuzhao knew the reason for the dark clouds hanging over Xiao Yunyue's head, but Nanguan knew even more.

Normally, a letter sent by his master to Shengjing would be answered within five days, but seven days have passed and Xiao Yunyue still has not received a reply from his sweetheart.

Xiao Yunyue knew that honesty was the cornerstone of trust. Although he had calmed down all the turmoil, it was difficult for Yuan Miaoyi to hear any rumors.

But if by chance Yuan Miaoyi hears about this in the future, his concealment now will become a hidden danger that shakes trust. So even though he hesitated again and again, he still explained the whole matter to Yuan Miaoyi in the letter.

While waiting for the reply, Xiao Yunyue felt anxious rather than in a bad mood.

No matter what, Xiao Yunyue always felt that part of this matter was his fault. He failed to be more determined and distanced himself from Fan Ruyi before the incident happened, which made Fan Ruyi have thoughts in his heart that he shouldn't have.

Xiao Yunyue didn't know if Yuan Miaoyi would be angry because of this matter, but in his opinion, even if she was angry, it would be better than her being sad. He didn't want Yuan Miaoyi to be sad where he couldn't see it.

Yuan Miaoyi, who was far away in Shengjing, had indeed received Xiao Yunyue's letter early and learned about the incident in the letter. She was not in a hurry to reply to Xiao Yunyue.

Aunt Cui looked at Yuan Miaoyi, who was sitting upright and practicing calligraphy. After serving her a cup of tea, she said carefully: "Girl, aren't you going to reply to the young marquis?"

She has never interfered with the affairs between Yuan Miaoyi and Xiao Yunyue. Aunt Cui sticks to her duties, let alone peeking into the letters written by Xiao Yunyue. She knew about this because Yuan Miaoyi took the initiative to tell her.

But the way Aunt Cui looked at her girl didn't seem to be angry with the young Marquis. However, in the past, Yuan Miaoyi would reply immediately after receiving the letter from Jinyun City, but this time there was no response. "Are you angry with the young marquis? From the slave's point of view, the young marquis is innocent in this matter."

Aunt Cui said that the folk customs in the border areas are indeed more tough than those in the capital. There are many young ladies in the capital who admire Xiao Yunyue, but I have never seen one who dared to devote herself to him.

Yuan Miaoyi shook her head with a smile, and signaled Grandma Cui to put away the four treasures of the study, and then she said calmly: "It's a wonder that a young man with such talent, talent and appearance doesn't have the admiration of a young lady. How can I Are you so angry that you won’t reply to him because of this?”

There are many people in the capital who admire Xiao Yunyue. Not long ago, Princess Jianing turned the inner palace upside down because of him.

Aunt Cui was a little confused after hearing this. In her eyes, Yuan Miaoyi had always been calm and tolerant. Since she had already figured it out, why did she let Xiao Yunyue wait like this: "What about you? "

Yuan Miaoyi picked up the teacup, took a sip and said, "I know this well, so there is no need to say anything more. I will reply to the young Marquis in a few days."

In fact, Yuan Miaoyi was still happy that Xiao Yunyue could be so honest with her. She was tired of hiding things from her past experiences. And Xiao Yunyue's lack of defense against her was actually what Yuan Miaoyi, who longed for sincerity in her feelings, needed.

However, Yuan Miaoyi frowned slightly, and it was difficult to completely control things in relationships by reason.

She had to admit that even though she knew that Xiao Yunyue had handled this matter very well, Yuan Miaoyi felt strangely sour at the thought of a woman recommending herself to Xiao Yunyue.

For Yuan Miaoyi, this was an extremely unfamiliar feeling, just like when she realized she was attracted to Xiao Yunyue for the first time. It was an emotion she had never felt before.

In her previous life, Yuan Miaoyi once heard one of her sisters say that most people who are virtuous or generous and can live in harmony with their concubines are not that fond of them. If you truly love someone, you will never tolerate someone sharing it with you.

Yuan Miaoyi had been noncommittal about this statement before. The urgency of the power struggle often made her feel like she couldn't breathe. She must remain absolutely calm and rational in this kind of fight. She does not need this kind of emotion that will disturb her heart.

Even after coming to Dayan, Yuan Miaoyi had never thought of trying to have this kind of emotion before. This kind of uncontrolled emotion will make Yuan Miaoyi, who has always been following the steps, feel uncomfortable and dangerous.

It wasn't until she truly fell in love with someone one day that Yuan Miaoyi realized that her sister's words were true.

Not only to share it with her, but also to have someone covet the person she loved, it already made her feel sour in her heart.

Yuan Miaoyi didn't reply because she wanted to slowly digest this inexplicable emotion in her heart. She didn't want to appear so unreasonable in front of Xiao Yunyue.

There was another part of the reason. Yuan Miaoyi rested her chin and thought that she couldn't let herself be jealous for a moment. She already knew from Yuan Lingheng that there had been no major events in Jinyun City recently. Since nothing major happened, let Xiao Yunyue be anxious for a few more days.

Although Xiao Yunyue was anxiously waiting for his sweetheart's reply, he still couldn't slack off on military affairs. The use of spies to counter-insurrection under Yuan Miaoyi's reminder not long ago has been perfected and gradually implemented.

The new type of crossbow arrows is the best opportunity. At this time, I am afraid that Ba Lihong outside the pass has received the news from the spies in the city that the Sixteenth Cavalry of Youyun has been equipped with new weapons. (End of chapter)
