In late autumn, the capital city still has a bit of after-autumn heat, but the outside of Shuoyang Pass is already covered with white grass and yellow clouds, and it is desolate.

A group of seven or eight people rode tall horses and came galloping far from the direction of the Jingbei Army's garrison.

The sky was getting dark, and the night wind carried a biting chill, blowing in and out.The leader was dressed in a black outfit, and his black cloak with gold trim was blown flying by the wind.

"Call-"

Xiao Lingfeng reined in his horse and stared intently at the mountain restaurant in front of him.

Seeing this, Xiao Qi behind him also stopped.He looked up at the gloomy sky, took the reins and took two steps forward: "My lord, I'm afraid there will be a snowstorm at night and it will be inconvenient to travel, why don't we take a rest here, and we will enter the city tomorrow morning?"

Just as Xiao Lingfeng had this intention, he raised his hand, and the subordinates behind him also got off their horses. Their movements were neat and neat, and they looked like well-trained soldiers.

Lifting the curtain to enter the door, but no waiter came to greet him. The shopkeeper was leaning against the counter, dozing off bit by bit.

"Shopkeeper, here's a visitor!" Xiao Qi knocked on the counter with his fingers and called loudly.

The shopkeeper's Yoyo woke up, but didn't move.He raised his eyelids and glanced at Xiao Qi, his eyes clearly thought he was noisy.

Seeing that the shopkeeper's airs are not small, Xiao Qi looked back at his prince who had already taken his seat, turned his head and shouted at the shopkeeper: "Hurry up and treat me well!"

The knife in his hand hit the counter with a loud bang.

The sword that had beheaded the enemy's head and drank blood on the battlefield was full of evil spirits. The shopkeeper was frightened, and quickly put away the impatience on his face, and went forward to serve the order diligently.

Not long after, Xiao Er lit up two braziers and brought them to keep warm.The wind and snow are rising outside, but inside the shop is warm because of the newly added brazier.

Several small altars of aged spirits were brought up.

Seeing that the prince did not object, Xiao Qi took the wine and slapped Kaifeng Ni directly, and took some wine bowls.Alcohol is banned in the army, but if you want to keep warm and fight the cold, it doesn't hurt to drink a little.

Just about to pour wine for the brothers, a sneer came.

"You men from the Central Plains, are you so stingy when you drink alcohol?"

"The reputation of the Jingbei Army spreads far and wide, and I thought that all the men in the Northwest were bold men with one as ten, but I didn't expect..."

A bearded man in a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat raised the wine jar in his hand and drank the wine in it. The wine dripped down the corner of his mouth and wet his beard. He looked really sloppy.

The man wiped his face with his big hand, held up the wine jar and shook his head like a protest: "Drinking wine is like a woman, bitch."

The man sat near the corner, covering his figure with the shadow of the candlelight.Xu Shi deliberately restrained his breath, but Xiao Lingfeng's subordinates failed to notice his existence from the beginning.

Realizing this, Xiao Qi's mind rang alarm bells: This person is dangerous!

As soon as the big man finished speaking, several of Xiao Lingfeng's personal guards had already pulled out their sabers with a "shua", and the blades were half an inch out of their sheaths, showing a bright and cold light.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the hotel lobby, which was originally not very spacious, seemed even more cramped.

"You!" Xiao Qi was anxious, he put the wine jar heavily on the table, and stepped on the long bench opposite the big man to argue with him, "You are so bold!"

"Xiao Qi!" As soon as he started speaking, he heard his prince knock on the table and said in a deep voice behind him, "Don't be fierce and brave."

As soon as Xiao Lingfeng spoke, Qinweimen put away their knives and sheathed them, but they still had an angry look on their faces.Xiao Qi gave the big man a hard look, and came back reluctantly to continue pouring the wine.

The big man over there still didn't stop, he glanced at Xiao Qi, and said with disdain: "Chicken."

Then he skipped over Xiao Qi and looked at Xiao Lingfeng, although he didn't say anything, but if he wanted to say something, he specified that it was not a good thing.

Xiao Lingfeng held the wine bowl calmly, not as knowledgeable as this big man.He hurried back from the station today, but he actually had another purpose, and he absolutely didn't want to make any troubles at this moment.

There were so many of them, and there was only one person in charge of the spoon in the inn, even if they cut a piece of mutton and baked a few cakes, they didn't arrive so quickly.

While waiting for the interval, Xiao Lingfeng glanced at the several subordinates who were still on guard and Xiao Qi, the captain of the personal guard who looked unhappy beside him, and couldn't help sighing in his heart.

It has been seven days since he wore the book. At first, he was not familiar with the body of the original owner, and showed many flaws.

Unexpectedly, none of these wooden subordinates noticed, not only did not notice, yesterday Xiao Qi even lamented in front of him in a foolish way, "My lord's temper has really improved a lot recently".

In order to maintain the character design, Xiao Lingfeng took a risk to keep his expression on his face, and didn't directly attack him to give him a headache.

He smiled wryly from the bottom of his heart, rubbed the rough wine bowl with a chip in his hand, and recalled the whole story of his wearing a book.

Xiao Lingfeng, whose real name is Xiao Linfeng, is an ordinary undergraduate national defense student who is about to graduate.

Before passing through the book, he was inspecting the internal affairs of the new students on behalf of the instructor. He did not expect to find a novel, so he confiscated it.

Originally, I promised to return it to my junior after the military training was over, but I didn't expect that when I opened my eyes, I got into the book.

Fortunately, the book was quite interesting. Before passing through the book, he roughly read it and remembered the main plot and the ending of the book, so things were not too difficult.

In this plot novel, his current identity is King Jingbei, the god of war in the Dajing Dynasty. The blackened Zhuang Qingyue borrowed a knife to kill someone and died on the battlefield.After his death, Zhuang Qingyue disturbed the situation and turned the Dajing Dynasty upside down...

Thinking of this, Xiao Lingfeng felt quite helpless in his heart.

He originally wanted to stay away from Zhuang Qingyue to avoid this disaster, but no matter how he analyzed the plot of the original book, he had an inextricable connection with this person, and it was simply...unavoidable.

After struggling for several days, Xiao Lingfeng finally changed his mind.Since it is unavoidable, then take the initiative to attack and be friends with the hero, maybe there will be a little more chance of survival?

Calculating the timeline, at this time, Zhuang Qingyue's family was exiled by his unlucky younger brother on the throne because of trumped-up charges of corruption, and they should arrive in Shuoyang City tomorrow.

Xiao Lingfeng's trip to the city was precisely to take advantage of this great opportunity to take Zhuang Qingyue away first and keep him with him.In this way, he can not only get closer to him, but also try his best to prevent him from becoming black.

Just as he was thinking, a gust of cold wind suddenly hit, blowing away the warmth in the shop in an instant.With his back facing the door of the shop, Xiao Qi couldn't help shivering.

Xiao Lingfeng looked up.

A jade-white hand lifted the heavy curtains of the inn to block the wind.Then, a young man in a white coat walked in.

Perhaps the wind and snow came in a hurry, but this man was unobstructed, his brows and eyes were already covered with a layer of fine snow, and he became a beautiful person of ice and snow.

According to the book, the male protagonist is a rare romantic figure in the world.Xiao Lingfeng only took one look, and he was sure that this young man who looked extremely cold was the unparalleled son Zhuang Qingyue in the book.

Caught off guard, he and Zhuang Qingyue met their eyes.Concealing the momentary daze, Xiao Lingfeng politely nodded towards Zhuang Qingyue as if nothing had happened.

Immediately lowered his eyes, doubts flashed in his eyes: "Why is he here?"

There is no such plot in the book.

I didn't expect to be forced to take a rest when encountering wind and snow, but I could also get some unexpected gains.

Xiao Lingfeng raised his head and swallowed the liquid in his throat, and called the shopkeeper to come over.

"Is there any more mutton soup?"

The shopkeeper replied tremblingly: "There are still more, and I will deliver them to the guest officer."

Xiao Lingfeng waved his hands, and turned his gaze to Zhuang Qingyue who was seated sideways to him: "Give that young master a bowl to warm up."

The shopkeeper let out a hey, and turned around quickly.

Xiao Qi's eyes widened when he heard this, with undisguised surprise on his face, when did his prince become so warm-hearted?

Seeing Xiao Lingfeng's motionless appearance, Xiao Qi lowered his head and thought for a long time, but he couldn't figure out the meaning of the prince's move.

When Zhuang Qingyue next door heard Xiao Lingfeng's order, she was no less surprised than Xiao Qi.

He carefully looked at Xiao Lingfeng's expression, but that slightly cold face didn't make him see anything other than calmness.

"Thanks a lot," he said.

The shopkeeper acted swiftly, and a steaming hot mutton soup was served quickly.

Zhuang Qingyue stared at the huge bowl of mutton soup in front of her eyes, her brows were slightly frowned.

He doesn't like to drink mutton soup. He thinks the mutton will have a smell if it is not handled properly.

But this is what Xiao Lingfeng ordered... He turned his head to look at the powerful and scheming God of War prince at the next table, and fell into deep thought.

It stands to reason that he has never shown his true appearance to others, so it is impossible for Xiao Lingfeng to recognize him.

But would the majestic Prince of the Great King Dynasty be so kind as to give a stranger mutton soup for no reason?

It was hard not to make him vigilant.

Zhuang Qingyue pressed her wrist pulse quietly, she had just suffered an internal injury, if Xiao Lingfeng suddenly got into trouble, he might not be able to withstand a single palm.

"Young master, are you not used to mutton soup?" Xiao Lingfeng asked hesitantly seeing Zhuang Qingyue staring at the soup bowl in front of him.

"That's not the case." Zhuang Qingyue sighed, "I met this...a chivalrous man by chance. The chivalrous man is so generous and caring, it reminds me of my relatives and friends at home, and I feel a little moved."

The shopkeeper also seemed to think that it was indecent for such a young man in white to hold a sea bowl to drink soup, so he kindly sent a small bowl with a spoon.

Zhuang Qingyue raised her hand to take out a bowl, and took a sip tentatively by taking advantage of the misplaced cover.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he was a little surprised.Unexpectedly, in this small rural inn, the mutton soup is even more delicious than that made in the restaurants in the capital.

He looked at Xiao Lingfeng, and suddenly felt that the prince of Jingbei was not as hateful as the rumors said, and the smile in his eyes was a little more sincere.

"Heh." The bearded man in the corner opened his mouth again, "It's true, there are all these girls, it's an eyesore!"

He looked at Zhuang Qingyue.

That delicate snow-white face was half hidden under the same snow-white fox-fur cloak, making him even more noble.

He was obviously a man with a cold face, but when he squinted at him, he had an aura that was not inferior to that of a woman.

No one paid any attention to the provocation of the big man.

Zhuang Qingyue was sipping soup, Xiao Lingfeng at the next table was drinking, and the people brought by Xiao Lingfeng were all focused on filling their stomachs.

The big man was bored, so he had to drink angrily, knocking the wine jar loudly.

After finishing dinner, Xiao Lingfeng went upstairs first.Xiao Qi simply arranged night shifts, and followed him into the guest room, intending to make his bed as usual.

"Not busy." Xiao Lingfeng used to do things by himself before, and was not used to being waited on like this, so he raised his hand to stop Xiao Qi's movements at this moment.

He signaled Xiao Qi to close the door, and then ordered: "That young man in white, keep an eye on him."

Xiao Qi was startled: "Does he have a problem?"

After finishing speaking, he made a suddenly realized expression, and thought: No wonder the prince wants to send him mutton soup, he must have seen that this person appeared here alone and behaved suspiciously, and he was trying to test it!

"He...isn't really a problem." Xiao Lingfeng didn't know what he was thinking, but just told him, "But the bearded man's eyes flickered while eating, which is really suspicious..."

Eyes flickering?That's right, that man looks down on other people's faces while despising the boyishness in white clothes. He is really a disciple!Not at all as friendly and polite as our prince...

A light flashed in Xiao Qi's mind, as if he understood something.

He looked solemn, and immediately made a fist towards Xiao Lingfeng: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this subordinate will let the stone stare at that big man! As for the young man in white, this subordinate will personally protect him for you!"

Xiao Lingfeng had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was right to protect Zhuang Qingyue?
