Concubine Shang Yunxiao

Chapter 40
After leaving Lijin, the capital city, the road was slightly uneven.The farther you go to the west, the more rugged and winding, and the mountains continue to stretch.The weather is cold but dry, and occasionally there are clumps of green and yellow malnourished grass, and there is not a village or a house for a long time.

It was cloudy and cold, and the wind cut people's faces like knives.The harsh environment made Yuanxi's lips crack.Lord Ye Yang saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart.Compared with the capital, the weather here is harsh, but compared to Danci, it is a heaven and a hell.Yuanxi's delicate muscles might not be able to withstand the ravages of the harsh climate, and they would quickly dry out and age.

When passing by a small town, Lord Yeyang bought a bottle of lip balm for Yuan Xi.He bought her a scarf to cover her face to protect the skin on her face.

Yuan Xi took these things and just said thank you softly.Along the way, neither of them said anything, and suddenly a wall of heart was built.

After leaving Beijing for one month, I came to the border of Anxia Kingdom.Lord Ye Yang pointed to a mountain in front of him that looked like it was about to enter Jiuxiao and said: "Princess, you will leave the border of Anxia Kingdom after crossing this mountain. Let's rest in the inn overnight and set off to cross the mountain tomorrow morning. Get down before dark."

"Does it need to be so urgent?" Yuan Xi asked.

Ye Yangjun nodded and said: "Yes. Because there will be wolves and wild beasts invading late at night, it is better to go down the mountain before sunset. So tomorrow we will rush on the road non-stop. And..." Ye Yangjun paused and said, "The carriage cannot go up the mountain. After tomorrow, the princess will spend her days on horseback."

Yuan Xi smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, I can ride a horse."

"Okay." Lord Yeyang said, "Let's go to the inn to rest." After speaking, he helped Yuanxi get off the carriage.

The waiter in the shop saw a group of military masters surrounded by a gorgeously dressed masked woman entering the shop, he did not dare to neglect at all, greeted warmly, and wiped the table and stools with a rag over and over again.

"How many rooms do you want?" Ye Yangjun said.

"Okay, as much as you want." The waiter said cheerfully.It can be seen that it is rare to see so many guests in this remote place, and the business is naturally light.But it is also an important place to go out, so there is no lack of such a place to stay.

Lord Ye Yang sat at a table in the back with Yuan Xi and Yue Yi, and Yuan Xi took off the tulle from his face.When the waiter mixed the tea, he looked at Yuan Xi in shock, his eyes protruding.It can be seen that she has never seen such a beautiful woman.

He couldn't help asking, "Master Jun, where are you going?"

"Is this what you should ask?" Ye Yangjun's lieutenant was drinking at the side of the waiter, with a bit of a vicious aura.
