In the coldest days of winter, with raging winds and flying snow, the North is left with nothing but coldness and desolation.

Xie Yunsong and his group stood at the camp in the northern border. The sentry, wrapped in a thick cotton coat, looked out from the watchtower, and when he saw that there was no movement, he relaxed.

When he looked out again, the sentry saw several blurry figures approaching. The sentry stood up and looked carefully, until he saw that the person coming was General Yunhui who had been away for more than half a year, the chill and sleepiness disappeared instantly.

The sentry was startled and shouted: "Open the door! Open the door quickly! It's General Yun Hui! The general is back——"

For a moment, the long-depressed Northern Territory was in an uproar, and many soldiers rushed out to welcome the return of General Yun Hui.

Bai Zhiyuan had a smile on his face. Looking at the Northern Border soldiers' admiration and love for Xie Yunsong, the pride in his heart was beyond words.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Lu Zhiling and Cheng Tiankuo, who had heard the noise, hurried out.

When he saw that it was really Xie Yunsong, Lu Zhiling saluted excitedly. Xie Yunsong helped him up, and Lu Zhiling said in a trembling voice: "General, you are finally back!"

"Yes," Cheng Tiankuo echoed, "The general has been gone for more than half a year, and we soldiers in the northern border have been looking forward to his return day and night. Today, we finally got our wish."

Xie Yunsong glanced at the soldiers who surrounded him and said, "When I was away, you all worked hard to guard the northern border. Now that I am back, I will continue to lead you to recapture the northern border, and we will strive to return home as soon as possible."

The snowstorm was raging, and the wind was biting, but as soon as these words came out, the soldiers in the North suddenly felt their blood boiling, and someone in the crowd began to shout: "The general is mighty--"

With someone taking the lead, everyone started shouting, "The general is mighty—"

For a moment, the shouting was deafening, and even Bai Zhiyuan was shocked.

Lu Zhiling calmed down at this time and said, "The general wrote to you earlier, saying that he had arrived in Youzhou and encountered an assassination attempt in Youzhou. Is the general injured?"

Xie Yunsong said: "It's just a minor injury, it's fine now."

Lu Zhiling: "Seeing that the North was about to be hit by a blizzard, I was worried that the general would be delayed by the blizzard, but I didn't expect that the general would rush back before the blizzard hit."

Cheng Tiankuo replied, "Yes, I was also worried about the slippery roads in the snow, but I didn't expect the general to arrive so soon."

Xie Yunsong also acted very cold in the face of his subordinates' concern.

Bai Zhiyuan knew that he had a cold personality, so he stepped forward and said, "General Xie and I saw that the weather was not right and a snowstorm was about to fall, so we rode as fast as we could without stopping, and finally returned to the northern border before the snowstorm."

Lu Zhiling and Cheng Tiankuo then asked Bai Zhiyuan about his well-being. Bai Zhiyuan answered their questions one by one without any impatience.

Several people stood in the camp and chatted for a long time.

Just when I was getting excited, a female voice suddenly rang out.

"Yunsong, you're back. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Bai Zhiyuan looked back, unable to hide his surprise. This person was none other than Shen Zhiyi, the female doctor who was driven back to the capital by Xie Yunsong.

I just don't know why she returned to the North again.

Shen Zhiyi was wearing a turquoise long skirt with delicate cloud patterns embroidered on the hem and a milky white cape, which made her look very charming. In this military camp full of men, she looked even more charming.

Now standing in the wind and snow, she looks even thinner and more beautiful.

When Xie Yunsong saw Shen Zhiyi, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by boundless indifference.

Before Bai Zhiyuan could figure out why Shen Zhiyi was here.

Lu Zhiling was a little embarrassed and explained, "General, Shen, the doctor, has just arrived in the Northern Territory. I really didn't have time to send you a pigeon. I shouldn't have made the decision to let Shen stay, but now the Northern Territory is raging with snow and wind, and Shen is a woman, so I couldn't bear to drive her away. So I could only discuss with the brothers and let her stay for a few days. I will make a decision after reporting to the general, but I didn't expect the general to come back so soon."

"I was so happy when I saw you just now that I forgot to report this matter. Please forgive me, General."

Although most people were unaware of the affair between General Yunhui and Shen, Lu Zhiling had followed Xie Yunsong for so long that he knew the truth to some extent. Since Xie Yunsong could drive Shen away without mercy, he must have his reasons. He really shouldn't have kept Shen Zhiyi this time, but Shen Zhiyi was so pitiful and had nowhere to go, so Lu Zhiling felt sympathy for her.

After Lu Zhiling finished speaking, he observed Xie Yunsong's expression and secretly glanced at Bai Zhiyuan's expression. Fortunately, both of them were very tolerant people and did not show any anger.

But Lu Zhiling was still uneasy. Everyone in the camp knew that Shen Yinu loved his general, so she was a love rival of Rong'an County Lord. Now that the love rivals met, they were naturally jealous.

Just when Lu Zhiling didn't know what to do, Bai Zhiyuan said, "Miss Shen, you have come all the way from Shangjing, and encountered such weather. It is only natural for you to keep her. General Lu does not need to blame himself too much."

Lu Zhiling felt relieved when he saw that she really had no intention of blaming him.

Cheng Tiankuo said at the right moment: "Look at us, we are so happy to see the general coming back that we actually let him stand in the wind and snow."

"Come on, General. I have ordered people to clean your and the county lady's tent every day. I don't know when you will arrive. These days, it has been clean and tidy."

Xie Yunsong then frowned, glanced at Shen Zhiyi, and without saying a word, took Bai Zhiyuan's hand and slowly walked towards the tent under the gaze of everyone.

Seeing this, Shen Zhiyi's eyes flashed with jealousy and anger, but soon calmed down. She sneered in her heart and said to herself: "Bai Zhiyuan, I'll let you be proud for a few more days, and soon you will also taste the taste of being abandoned."

As she thought this, a strange smile appeared on her lips. Then, ignoring everyone's gazes, she walked towards her tent step by step.
