The prince spared his life! The lady has been reborn to save you

In the misty white sky, two tall horse heads suddenly stretched out, and behind them, the black-armored soldiers on horseback appeared from the dense snow.

In the raging snow, the two men wore black bamboo hats and cloth scarves around their faces. The pure black scarves were stained with snowflakes. The eyes hidden in the shadow under the hat were slightly raised, but were completely blocked by the black hat edge.

The black wrap on his body was bathed in the extreme white ice, carrying a bit of bloodthirsty repression, sinister and weird like a demon from the cold realm.

Chu Yizhao stood up, his indigo-colored cloak draped over the ground, a grey fox fur collar around his neck, and a light jade-colored hairpin tied in his hair, looking elegant and noble.

She observed the two men warily, and the people on the opposite side were also looking at her.

Looking from a distance, two black dots stand opposite each other in the vastness.

Lu Lin rarely stepped forward to greet them. Instead, Lu Rui took two steps forward holding the snowball. When his head was only inches away from the horse's head, he muttered something in a low voice, but there was no response from the carriage. The wind was too loud and Chu Yizhao could not hear clearly.

She called out quickly, "Rui Rui, come back!"

Soldiers suddenly appeared in the frozen snow. Chu Yizhao almost suspected that he had seen a ghost. How dare this kid come forward?

Hearing the voice, Lu Rui obediently turned back to Chu Yizhao's side and looked at the person on the horse from a distance.

"Girl from the Chu family? Why are you here?"

Behind the black-armored soldiers appeared a chestnut horse with a high back and big eyes.

Chu Yizhao frowned.

This horse...

She seemed to have seen it somewhere...

"Chu girl?"

The snow was falling heavily and the vision was blurred. Only the outline could be vaguely made out. The man asked again uncertainly.

Chu Yizhao's thoughts were pulled back, and he looked at the middle-aged man on the horse in confusion, "Who are you?"

The man was wearing a padded jacket and official robe that symbolized his official status, a scarlet velvet cape on the outside, a velvet hat with ear protections on his head, and a pair of deerskin gloves on his hands. He had an elegant appearance and his facial features looked somewhat familiar.

Lu Lin reminded Chu Yizhao in his ear, "Master Shen Xu from the Protectorate Mansion."

Shen Xu?

How did I run into a Beijing official...

Chu Yizhao frowned slightly and then relaxed. Seeing Shen Xu dismounting and walking towards her, she bowed and said, "Master Xu."

Shen Xushen stepped forward to Chu Yizhao, his leather boots digging into the snow. "It's snowing hard, no need to be polite."

He glanced at the stalled carriage and said, "Why are you leaving the city in such bad weather?"

Chu Yizhao was slightly surprised by the familiar tone. She lowered her head and pretended to cough lightly, "I have a long-standing illness and I came out to find medicine."

From the 13th to today, "she" has been ill for five days, and this was just the right excuse for her to go out and look for medicine.

Seeing her pale face, Shen Xu did not doubt it. He said with concern, "How dare you go out in such weather? Just send someone to tell the Duke of Huguo's mansion."

Chu Yizhao saved Shen Zheng and his wife, which was also a disguised way of saving the Duke of Huguo's Mansion. Everyone in the mansion was grateful, and all the treasures from heaven and earth were given to her.

Chu Yizhao smiled and changed the subject, "Is Lord Shen free?"

"Can someone help push the cart?"

The Rongdi people are coming to visit, and their envoys have entered the three cities to protect the capital. A month ago, Emperor Yuan'an ordered the Duke of Protectorate Shen Zhichun to be the accompanying envoy, and he brought his eldest son, the Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple Shen Xu, to welcome them.

This person appears with guards, either to explore the way or to report news, the former being the most common.

Shen Xu stepped forward and kicked the wheel, shaking his head. "It's been too long, it's frozen solid, I can't push it anymore."

He looked up at the snow and wind, "This snow won't stop for a while, why don't you follow us back to the team welcoming the envoys? When the snow stops, I'll send someone to take you back to the capital."

"Is it far?"

"Not far. The welcoming team has a lot of vehicles and is stuck at the village next door due to heavy snow. I was ordered to check the road conditions. There is no need to look here..."

Chu Yizhao took the flowers wrapped in velvet. No unmanned vehicles could block the official road. One of the black-armored guards stayed to destroy the vehicle and gave the horse to her.

Looking at the tall and strong horse, Chu Yizhao felt frightened. Her horsemanship was as bad as dog shit and she could barely ride it, but the horse's legs were up to her chest line.

There were only men around and no one could take her away.

Looking back at the horse tied to the front of the carriage, the three of them all enjoyed themselves, and the horse was fat and strong, and not too short...

Chu Yizhao was speechless. Just as she was about to ask Lu Rui to give her a ride, a horse head pushed away the black horse next to it and came into Chu Yizhao's sight, blinking its watery eyes and wagging its tail leisurely.

Chu Yizhao sighed, what a long face...

Suddenly, her memory flashed.

Isn’t this guy the jerk who sprayed snot all over Chu Yingxue at Xifu Horse Farm?

Yo, familiar horse!

Chu Yizhao smiled happily. She stroked her long face and said, "Do you want me to ride you? If you do, shut up. If you don't, speak up."

"... "

"Okay, you want to."

She turned to Shen Xu and said, "Sir Shen, I will ride away then."

Shen Xu: “…”

That seemed to be his horse.

Why don't you ask him.

The red horse was indeed obedient. When Chu Yizhao climbed on it, the horse did not move at all and carried Chu Yizhao obediently into the snow.

Lu Lin and Lu Rui rode on the same horse, so Shen Xu could only ride with another black-armored guard on the black horse abandoned by Chu Yizhao. The black-armored guard tilted his head slightly and said seriously, "Sir, look at Chi Cong, how steady he is, he doesn't look like he has fallen off you twice."

Shen Xu: “…”

The welcoming team camped in the open space at the entrance of the village. The snow was cleared and piled up to form a wall around it. Soldiers patrolled and slaves escorted them. From a distance, there were about a hundred tents, several of which were high tents with thick felt.

Chu Yizhao observed the garrisoned soldiers, who were wearing ordinary black armor but cloud-patterned military boots.

It is the garrison of the southern border.

Tsk, so heartbreaking.

Since Emperor Gaozu, the Zhou Dynasty has had three sage rulers, each with his own strengths. The previous emperor was a warrior, and his descendants, no matter how noble and elegant they appeared to be, had a warlike nature in their bones.

Wei Xingche is particularly obvious. He looks like a nobleman, but he is actually a ruthless warrior. It only took him three years to defeat the Rongdi who had harassed the southern cities for decades. In his previous life, until Chu Yizhao was detained, Wei Xingche's reputation still stood tall in the court and border, intimidating the Rongdi and making them dare not commit crimes.

Chu Yizhao followed Shen Xu into the main tent. It was warm inside the tent, with thick curtains drawn to block out the wind and snow outside.

There were three people in the tent. The one in the middle was wearing a red official robe with colorful embroidery on his chest. He had a handsome face. Although his temples were gray, his eyes were still bright. This person was the father-in-law of the Great Zhou Dynasty - the Protector of the Country, Shen Zhichun.

It was said that Shen Zhichun was handsome and elegant when he was young, and he looked like a pearl by his side. The late emperor was not fond of men and felt very sorry. When Shen Ni came of age and looked like her father, he forced Emperor Yuan'an, who was already the crown prince, to welcome Shen Ni into the palace.

Chu Yizhao thought of the Queen Mother, whose appearance was also unparalleled in the world. He could not help but sigh that the Wei family was overbearing and would not allow the beauty of the world to be taken away by the royal family.

The other two were both men with thick eyebrows and big eyes. One was dressed as a general, and his name was Chang Fangjin, the commander of Biannan. The other one was dressed in foreign clothes, with a felt hat and a turned-down collar, and a piece of lake shell stone, a specialty of Biannan, hanging around his neck. He was the younger brother of the King of Rongdi - Haze.

Ha Ze had a full beard and a rough appearance. He narrowed his eyes and looked Chu Yizhao up and down with interest, then spoke fluent Beijing dialect.

"This woman is good, and she is a perfect match for my nephew. Do you like the Rongdi tribe? Come back to the royal court with me."

As soon as these words came out, the other three people in the tent changed their expressions slightly. It was rumored that the two children of the King of Rongdi who accompanied him on this visit wanted to exchange marriages with the Zhou Dynasty. Chu Yizhao's appearance here was like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth. Shen Xu looked unhappy. How could he have forgotten this matter...

A calm voice broke the warmth in the room, "Oh... not really."
