Ning Xi sat in front of the bamboo window, looking at the dark sky outside, feeling uneasy.

"Tongzi, help me see what's going on with Cheng Guiyi?"

Tongzi has been online for the past few days, but he seldom comes out to read gossip. He still prefers the modern plane, where there are a lot of gossips.

[Host, wait a moment, Tongzi will show you a light screen. ]
Ning Xi quickly saw the situation in Yongzhou through the light screen.

After a long time no see, Cheng Guiyi seemed a little haggard.

A soldier in armor outside hurriedly sent an urgent report, "Prime Minister, Bingzhou's army is only [-] kilometers away from Yongzhou!"

Cheng Guiyi coughed and put the written letter on the side of the desk.

"Order to go on, soldiers from all sides are stationed along the river, don't act rashly."

"Yes!"

After the soldiers left, Cheng Guiyi summoned Cheng Qi.

"Is there any news from your Highness?"

Cheng Qi has been in charge of the queen's news post, and has lost contact with the queen for a while.

"Master, General Qin has joined His Highness, and they took a group of elite boats into the deep mountains of Penglai, accompanied by members of the Liang family."

"The mountain is closed, and the news of His Highness has been unable to spread for a while."

Cheng Guiyi took a deep breath, and in his mind was the man in the light yellow dress, who poked his head with the end of a red ink pen and asked him how to approve the paper.

In the past, she was always suspected of being the idiot queen.

Now that I think about it, it would be nice to be an idiot queen, so she wouldn't have to go to the mountains to suffer.

Hundreds of miles away from Yongzhou, in the tents stationed along the way.

The military doctor carried the medicine box and walked towards the largest tent. When the doctor felt the pulse of Queen Bingzhou, he sighed.

"Your Highness, you are tired from the long journey and are not acclimatized to the environment. You need to rest for a few more days."

Ning Yuan's long hair was tied up, if not for her pale complexion, she would have looked heroic.

She waved her hand, "Needless to say, you just prescribe the medicine."

She was in a hurry to march, but she just wanted to take Yongzhou down earlier, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

At this moment, a man in a white robe came in, and seeing her reading the military book, he couldn't help frowning.

"Your Highness, you need to rest now."

"Yuan Qing, I know this king's body myself, so you don't need to say more." Ning Yuan glanced at the national teacher Yuan Feng.

Yuan Feng sat in front of the screen and sighed softly, "Yongzhou's reality has not yet been found out, so why are you in such a hurry?"

Ning Yuan smirked, "I'm not afraid of the idiot Wang Jie, but just worried about the Prime Minister of Yongzhou. His wisdom is well-known all over the world."

"This time, this king intends to catch Yongzhou by surprise."

Yuan Feng smiled faintly, "Your Highness, marching in a hurry is not an easy task."

Ning Yuan laughed wildly, "Just wait and see."

……

The storm came quickly, and the rain fell on the roof with a crackling sound.

Ning Xi closed the window, and Wei Yi, wearing a coir raincoat, delivered food cooked by the villagers.

When she heard the sound, she quickly opened the door and saw Wei Yi who was almost drenched.

"Miss, it's time to eat." Wei Yi took out the bamboo basket he was holding in his arms, which was well covered and not much wet by the rain.

Ning Xi went up and untied his coir raincoat, "You change your clothes first."

Wei Yi nodded, took out the clothes from the bag and changed them neatly.

He turned and saw the Queen was still looking at him.

Wei Yi's face suddenly became hot, "Eat quickly, otherwise the food will be cold."

"Let's eat together." Ning Xi sat down and took out the wooden bowl containing the food from the basket.

The rice is covered with a thick layer of oily red bacon, and the rich aroma is tangy.

Ning Xi sniffed, it was so fragrant, and felt that the smell was stronger than that of barbecued meat.

Wei Yi hung up his rain-soaked clothes, turned to Ning Xi and said, "I've already eaten, you can eat."

Ning Xi didn't believe it. According to his nature of thinking about her beforehand, how could he eat it first.

"Sit down, how can I eat so much? Do you want me to waste food?"

Wei Yi knew the queen's temper well, so he had no choice but to sit there, but what he picked up with bamboo chopsticks was coarse grain steamed buns.

Ning Xi picked up a piece of fat and white bacon and held it up in front of him, "Do you want me to feed you?"

Wei Yi looked embarrassed, and subconsciously opened his mouth.

Next, he tactfully picked up the bacon and ate the steamed buns.

Ning Xi was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a layer of crispy rice under the rice, which tasted crispy and fragrant, especially delicious.

"Here, give you half."

Two people shared a bowl of bacon rice on a rainy night.

Wei Yi took the rice cake and couldn't help laughing out loud, the Queen is so kind.

An oil lamp was lit inside the house, and the figures of the two were cast by the window.

Qin Wu stood on the opposite side of the bamboo building, looking at the house where the queen lived. The kid hadn't come out yet.

That's all, as long as the queen is happy.

The shower in the mountains stopped quickly, and Ning Xi and his party continued on the road after the rain stopped.

According to the guidance of the elders in this tribe's village, they still have three or four days to go to the next tribe.

According to the coordinates provided by Tongzi, Ning Xi made some adjustments to try to reach the destination as quickly as possible.

As they went deeper into the mountains, there were more ferocious beasts, and several people in their group had already been injured.

Not far from the next tribal village, the hired guide said a little nervously: "We really can't go on the next road. They don't like to trade with outsiders. I advise you to go back."

Those who lead the way are very sorry for their lives. If they didn't give them a lot of money and have such a large group of people, these few guides would never agree to come here.

Ning Xi frowned. She had also learned about it in the local chronicles. Rushing into the tribe's territory would most likely put her life in danger.

But it's all here, it's impossible for her to lead people to retreat.

A group of people continued to move forward, but they did not expect to be attacked by bamboo arrows where they could see the tribe's house.

The people on Ning Xi's side defended, and the opponent did not attack while attacking, but tied up the wounded.

Qin Wu asked the guide to communicate, and Ning Xi saw more than a dozen men wearing leather skirts with strange characters painted on their upper bodies came out.

The leader was a muscular man with a stern face, looking warily at the people on Ning Xi's side.

The guide negotiated for a while before the other party released him.

"The leading man is the son of the patriarch, named Batu. He said that the transaction is fine, but he can't stay for a long time. You have to leave the village immediately if you change something."

Ning Xi nodded. She was just bringing people over to purchase survival supplies, so she didn't need to stay in the village to rest.

She said to the person who led the way: "Please tell them not to do anything again, otherwise we will not be polite."

When following Batu and others into the tribe, Ning Xi tugged at Wei Yi's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure you can capture Batu?"

Wei Yisi thought: "The battle can be won, but he knows the mountains well. If he wants to escape, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch him."

Ning Xi nodded thoughtfully, she is so powerful, it would be great if she could recruit Batu, the journey will surely be smoother.
