On the way to the northwest, Su Yining began to sell off various unused things.
Every time she went to a town, she would rent a shop and sell the furniture in the shop.
The Qiangongbabu bed can be taken away for one thousand taels, and the little red sandalwood tea seat costs five hundred taels!
It used to be hard to find, but now she bought it for the price of Chinese cabbage, and also bought a large number of livestock and poultry, even cattle and donkeys.
"Princess, what are we going to do with so many livestock?" Leng Yi had already come here after handling the affairs of the palace.
With a wave of Su Yining's hand, all the livestock's cubs were put into the space, followed by a large amount of grain feed, all of which were put into the space.
The secret guards felt that the princess had become special and... wild after leaving the capital, and she no longer concealed it from them. It was impossible to know how many things she had taken out and put away at her current location.
"Don't worry about it. Buy 100,000 sheep before arriving in the northwest. If there are not so many, then use other substitutes, including mules, donkeys, horses, and cattle."
The climate in the northwest is dry, cold, and windy and sandy. Many animals are not suitable for the climate there, but sheep are quite adaptable.
She has space and is not worried about whether she can feed these animals!
"Yes!" The secret guards divided into several groups according to her instructions, and began to go into the city to purchase goods. They would buy in large quantities at every place, and Su Yining would never show up.
She had long been disguised as a man, with stubble all over her face, dark skin, and a tightly wrapped headscarf, and she looked like a thin, strong woman.
What is noble status? What noble body and flesh are noble? Leave them all behind.
The emperor's pursuers passed them by many times without even noticing.
It took a month to run all the way northwest.
When Han Yunshen heard the news, he was so anxious that he was speechless. However, he was unable to do anything at all. Turks were everywhere on the northwest border, and they came back to harass them from time to time.
On one side, he wanted to protect his family and country, but in the end he chose his beloved.
When he was about to return to Beijing after settling the border issues, he received another letter from Su Yining.
Just one sentence, I'm fine, you can wait for me with peace of mind.
This sentence "Wait for me" made his heart surge.
Northwest Camp.
The soldiers at the gate of the camp were protected from the erosion of the wind and sand, and their eyes were so red that they could not see clearly. When they looked into the distance, they all had hallucinations.
"Hey, brother, do you think I'm too greedy for meat? I actually saw a herd of sheep coming towards us."
The second brother responded and his eyes widened: "Brother, it's not just you who is hallucinating, I've also seen it. Emma's sheep is so fat!"
From far to near, a mighty flock of tens of thousands of sheep slowly drove towards them.
"Quickly, go and report to the prince that the sheep have entered the palace in Beidaying!!!"
The old man didn't even care about the spear in his hand, he just started running at a speed that was almost gone.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!!! Enemy attack, enemy attack!!"
"What?" Han Yunshen was studying the terrain in front of the sand table. Unexpectedly, the enemy attacked in broad daylight?
"Come and take a look. Our Beida camp is surrounded by tens of thousands of sheep. It must be a conspiracy of the enemy!" The second son's helmet was crooked and he was panting.
Han Yunshen picked up his helmet without saying a word, put it on, gathered his troops and left the camp.
Carrying a spear in his hand, he sat astride a tall horse and squinted at the densely packed flock of sheep.
"Your Majesty, we haven't eaten meat for a long time. Do you want to..." The soldiers on the side looked at the sheep and drooled. They had not had a good meal since the prince's accident.
There are so many sheep now, if you steal a few secretly, no one will notice...
Han Yun glanced at the soldier with sharp eyes and said coldly: "What is the first article of military discipline? Recite it once!"
The soldier shrank his head and said with a look of shame: "Your Majesty, your subordinates are wrong. The first rule of discipline in the army is that you cannot take a needle or a thread from the common people, even if it is given to us!"
"If you say something like this in the future, you will be punished according to military regulations!" Han Yunshen ate and lived with the soldiers. His subordinates were very convinced of him and naturally did not dare to speak anymore.
He could only watch the goat masturbate a few times and slurp from time to time. His pitiful appearance made people feel ridiculous and helpless. It was indeed his fault as a general.
Letters requesting food from the imperial court arrived in the capital, but they were like nothing. They had not issued military pay and military rations for almost two years. If the family had a rich family earlier, everyone would have starved to death.
Han Yun knew that this was the emperor's intention. He was guarding the northwest for fear that they would rebel when their troops became stronger, but he never thought that the people here were still fighting against the Turks.
From time to time, enemy invaders come to burn, kill, and plunder. If there is no food, what can we use to fight?
The sound of horse hooves could be heard in the distance, and the tiny black dots turned into human shapes.
"who?"
"This is the important military area of Beidaying, please take a detour!"
The two soldiers shouted loudly at the figures. The people on the opposite side seemed not to hear them and drove the sheep away quickly.
"My lord, what should I do?" Could there be something hidden among so many sheep?
Suddenly, from far and near, I heard someone shouting the prince's name again.
"Han Yunshen, Han Yunshen!!!"
Han Yun was deeply afraid that his ears were hallucinating. This voice was so familiar that it was the voice of his dreams!
【Xiao Ning! She is here!】
"Drive!" He clamped his legs around the horse's belly and squeezed into the flock.
Su Yining also saw him, and she rushed to the middle of the sheep, got off her horse, and rushed into Han Yunshen's arms.
After not seeing each other for a few months, he had become thinner and darker, and his horns were more distinct.
"I miss you!"
"I miss you too!"
In the eyes of the soldier, his prince hugged a thin man, a rough man with a beard, and looked at each other affectionately...
After a brief hug, Su Yining slowly said: "Han Yunshen, please help someone catch the sheep!"
"Here, did you bring these?" Han Yun was silent for a moment. Can the meat in his mouth still escape?
"What are you still doing? Go catch the sheep and let someone build a sheepfold." Ignoring the soldiers' probing and curious gazes, he took Su Yining's hand and strode to his tent.
The moment he entered the tent, he could no longer hold back his lovesickness, and held her in his arms, kissing her hard.
"Hmm!!" Su Yining's eyes widened, and he was about to move a few times but was hugged harder.
Han Yunshen covered her widened eyes with his long and slender hands. No matter what was waiting for him next, he didn't want to endure it at this moment.
The kiss was hot and soul-eating. The atmosphere in the tent gradually became hotter and the temperature rose.
"Your Highness!!! Ah!!!" Two or three soldiers suddenly broke in and saw the Prince hugging a man and kissing him vigorously. Suddenly they seemed to understand something.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" He hurriedly backed out.
Su Yining was kissed so hard that she could hardly breathe. She looked sideways at the soldiers who ran out and was about to cry without tears.
