Madam Chai tilted her head slightly. She did not look like a young woman who was already a mother. Instead, she looked like a young girl. What was even more amazing was that her posture did not give people the slightest bit of ill will. Instead, it gave people a strange kind of charm and temptation.
Hsu Fengnian took the lead in riding his horse slowly. He said softly, "If Madam Chai is betting that my Beiliang will win so that the Sima Family can have a place in the future Beiliang or the Li Yang Dynasty, then I can tell Madam Chai that you don't need to place your bet. You don't need to bring your entire family to this murderous gambling table. If there is really a day when the war ends, I will definitely not treat the Sima Family unfairly. No matter what, I still remember that there was a stubborn little girl who cut her own hand just to get Hsu Fengnian to sign his name … "
Hsu Fengnian then turned his head to Madam Chai, who was riding side by side, and smiled happily. He said, "I'm a little proud. I don't want to say anything to those Beiliang men. I don't want to make them feel unbalanced. Take Cao Wei for example. I'm more handsome than him, my martial arts are better than his, and the most important thing is that I'm taller than him. If I were to provoke him, it would be too unkind. But Madam Chai is a woman, so there's no harm in saying it. "
Madam Chai said softly, "Your Highness really doesn't treat Chai Dongdi as an outsider."
Hsu Fengnian raised his hands and begged bitterly, "Madam Chai, please let me go."
Madam Chai held her belly and laughed.
Xu Fengnian glanced at them from the corner of his eyes, intentionally or unintentionally.
The mountains were rising and falling.
Hsu Fengnian actually had no distracting thoughts in his mind. He was reminiscing about the past, but he was also reminiscing about the past.
Madam Chai suddenly straightened her back and looked towards the direction of the new city, muttering: "I am staking everything on this one throw. I want to obtain an official position for the Sima Family. Of course, I am not lying. Who doesn't want their family to be able to hold the position for generations to come? I, Chai Dong Di, am only a woman who lives in daily life, but I have also read books. My vision is a bit more far-sighted than that of ordinary rural women. Since I have married into the Sima family, I want to be worthy of the Sima family. The Prince said that not only Beiliang, perhaps the Western Regions in the future will also be a place like a paradise. There will be private schools and the sound of studying everywhere. Every family will have elderly people enjoying their old age in peace, and every family will have a woman who can peacefully take care of her husband and children. Life like this was really good. Just thinking about it makes me happy. "
Hsu Fengnian nodded.
Madam Chai suddenly smiled and blinked her eyes. She turned her head and said wittily: "I am a woman … whose looks are passable. No matter what I think of the Prince, I still want to be liked by men. Especially those men who don't want to pounce on me the moment they see me. If he is always a gentleman, he will feel disappointed in his heart. Just like how the Prince said that he is proud of himself, he can only say these things to some women. I can only say these things to the Prince. "
Hsu Fengnian was speechless.
When he was young, when he was drunk and whipped a famous horse, he only thought about how to pretend to be heroic.
When he really matured, he actually went upstairs alone most of the time.
There was no one beside him, and he went upstairs alone.
Madam Chai looked at the young King's side profile and asked softly: "Will Beimang attack Beiliang again with the power of the whole country?"
Hsu Fengnian hesitated for a moment and said: "It was supposed to be like this, but now there are signs of internal strife in Beimang. The Murong and Yelu families might split. Of course, I will do my best to add fuel to the fire. However, the possibility of this is not high, and I can't have high hopes. I can only plan for the worst. Gu Jiantang took the initiative to attack earlier because he saw this clue. He was afraid that the Yelu family would take over the Beimang court and use the two Liao provinces as a breakthrough point for the army to invade the south. Otherwise, with Gu Jiantang's temperament, he would never act so quickly. Madam Chai, you have heard these words, but don't tell others. "
Madam Chai nodded and said: "Of course, I know the severity of this matter."
Xu Fengnian raised his horsewhip and pointed towards the distant north. With a heavy expression, he said, "After Hutou City was captured by Dong Zhuo, more than half of it was destroyed. More importantly, after the Northern Mang's armies retreated far away, this King of the South Courtyard's hundred thousand private soldiers and Tuoba Bodhisattva's elite cavalry are still eyeing covetously at the border. This is to prevent our Northern Liang from going all out to repair Hutou City. In the end, once the Great Battle of Liang and Mang breaks out, the tug-of-war between Hutou City and the Dragon Eye Plains is destined to be very tragic. It might not lose out to Azure City. "Then, with Huaiyang Pass as the core, the front line of Liuya and Fuling. After that, He Zhonghu's Left Cavalry will enter the battlefield and defend the northern part of the new city. Compared to the previous three-front battle, Beimang won't be distracted by the Gourd Gate in Youzhou. Beiliang has already used the heads of Jing Guan and Yang Yuanzan to prove that Beimang can't leave that battlefield. In this way, not only will the smoke outside Liangzhou Pass rise, but the entire defense line in Liuzhou will also bear a heavy burden. Of course, Youzhou's General Yan Wenluan and the new commander of the cavalry, Yu Luandao, will also move to Liangzhou. This will make Beimang's army unhappy and many people will die. "
Hsu Fengnian tightened his grip on his horsewhip. "Compared to my previous anger, I feel much better now. Because of this trip to the capital, I know that not everyone thinks that Beiliang's death in battle is a matter of course. There are still many people who feel injustice for Beiliang. "
Madam Chai said softly, "Is Beiliang content with just this?"
Hsu Fengnian shook his head. "It's not content. It's just that when Beiliang's people face the north and die, they realize that there are not only people who are mocking and ridiculing them, but also people who are filled with grief, indignation, and guilt. It's not that …"
For some reason, Hsu Fengnian didn't continue.
Hsu Fengnian said softly, "I, Hsu Fengnian, am Xu Xiao's son. In this life, I don't have the right to feel sorry for myself. These are my heartfelt words. I'm not lying. But I hope … "
Hsu Fengnian paused for a moment. His eyes were resolute. "Before the battle with Tuoba Bodhisattva, the Six Pearl Bodhisattva of Mount Lantuo gave me a blade and a sword. The name of the sword is really good. The name of the sword is' Loud '. Therefore, I hope that the people of the Central Plains don't expect them to be grateful. I also don't expect them to fight in the Cold. I only hope that the entire Central Plains can hear the sound of Beiliang's 300,000 cavalry marching north from the Northwest border. Hearing this heroic 'Loud' will allow them to stop pretending to be mute and deaf. "
Madam Chai pursed her lips and looked at him in a daze.
Hsu Fengnian suddenly smiled. "We're here."
As they approached the new city, Xu Yanbing and Liu Wenbao were quietly waiting for them.
Madam Chai reined in her horse. "Your Highness, I won't be going to the new city. I'll just take it that Your Highness has agreed to give the Sima family a deputy general in the Phoenix Division."
Hsu Fengnian also stopped his horse. He turned his head and said helplessly, "Alright."
Hsu Fengnian cupped his fists and sent them off. Then, he slowly moved forward.
Suddenly, Madam Chai called out softly from behind him. "Hsu Fengnian."
Hsu Fengnian didn't turn his head at all. He continued to speed up.
Madam Chai laughed loudly. "I, Chai Dongdi, will be waiting for you in the Western Region! I want to give birth to your child! "
Hsu Fengnian fled in panic.
Xu Yanbing looked at the young King who seemed to be sweating profusely. He held back his laughter and gave him a thumbs up.
Liu Wenbao also gave him a thumbs up.
But when the Prince stared at him with a murderous look, the Linyuan County Governor resentfully retracted his thumb.
But Liu Wenbao, who seemed to be ready to die, suddenly gave him a thumbs up again. He didn't want to put it down.

Many years later, in the Western Region's Feng Province, after the snow stopped, a woman's hair had turned white. She sat in a wheelchair with a warm and heavy blanket on her knees. She smiled and looked into the distance. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
In a trance, she seemed to have waited for many years.
The old woman's eyes were filled with tears as she whispered.
When she was about to die, she suddenly tried to open her eyes.
She finally smiled.
Her vision was blurry. She looked at the person squatting beside her and said in a hoarse voice, "It's a little late."
The person nodded and said, "I made you wait for a long time."
She shook her head slightly and tried to raise her hand. It seemed like she wanted to tidy up her hair.
But she didn't have the energy to do it.
So, she felt a little regretful.
The person helped her gather the blanket and said softly, "Don't worry. You are still very beautiful."
She lowered her head and moved her lips.
He nodded and said, "Okay."
She said.
Next life.
She closed her eyes.
The first time they met, he was so gentle. The last time they met, he was still like this.
Whether there was a next life or not, it didn't matter.
On the city wall, the sun was setting.
The old woman was called Chai Dongdi.
The old man was called Hsu Fengnian.
