Chapter one hundred and forty-two
Xuan Xuan...
In the dark, Bai Mei whispered the man's name softly.
In fact, identity can never be exposed, and relationship can never be admitted in public. What's the matter?
Didn't she tell Anping Yongyan that the intelligent child was not her beloved flesh and blood?
Didn't she tell the world that Anping Yanxuan, the person who knocked on her heart, would turn her feelings into nothingness?
The taste of happiness, as long as you know it.
The road to go, the direction to choose, as long as she is not lost, it is OK, without marking on the circle.
Jing Jun is a smart man.
Bai Mei thought that he was right. She needs to accompany Xuanxuan she identified and try her best to take care of her and Xuanxuan's children. However, she also has to bear other responsibilities she should bear.
It doesn't matter.
Don't worry.
Bai Mei said to himself.
Take your time, there will be a better way to get rid of everything.
She opened her eyes, and their sparkling eyes were brighter than the silent stars in the sky.
Crossbow
When the emperor travels, whether it is to play, hunt or go to war, he has to put on a great style.
Very lively, horses and chariots, ostentatious flags and deafening morale. Even if it has left the city, it is still the same in the wild with weeds.
Bai Mei hated the emperor's personal expedition. He hated it very much.
In good condition, she can't take advantage of so many people's eyes, and she has to be respectful in front of people.
The emperor's chariots and horses are in the middle, and good soldiers and generals are crowding round.
Bai Mei rode on a horse, followed at the end of the team, hanging his head, wilting as if he would fall asleep on horseback and fall to the ground the next moment.
Ningde caught a glimpse, restrained his horse, slowed down, approached the faint Bai Mei, and softly reminded: "Wake up, His Royal Highness Bai Hou, it is shameful to fall."
Bai Mei didn't lift his head, but he was still jumping at the horse and coping with the response: "It doesn't matter, if you start to travel, you can help me whip this horse... I can't fall."
Ningde looked at Bai Mei in surprise. Seeing her crumbling, she couldn't rest assured: "If you are really sleepy, go to the carriage to have a rest?"
Bai Mei yawned greatly: "It's okay, it's quite comfortable to fall asleep immediately..." At some point, he slowly fell down and climbed the horse's neck as if he were going to sleep like that.
Ningde was in a hurry to reach out and push Bai Mei awake, but she heard a strange voice saying to her: "It doesn't matter, let her sleep, she won't fall."
Ningde looked back, and a girl in blue, about 16 or 17, rode on a shiny black horse and smiled at her.
"You are..." Ningde has some doubts.
The girl bent her lips, but her eyes were very complicated and looked at Bai Mei, who slept without any image at all: "Subordinate Lan Ling is the master's attendant... At the beginning, in order to learn to sleep on horseback, the master tied himself to it with a rope for several days and nights without coming down... The general need not worry about her."
"..."
"Nothing, even if it falls, no one will die." Lan Ling saw Ningde's dubious eyes and added: "It is better to eat several times and suffer several injuries. Keep a long memory so that the host will not either sleep endlessly or think about sleeping all day long without even looking at the occasion."
"..." Ningde nodded and saw Lan Ling's sword and soft whip around his waist. He asked, "Do you know martial arts?"
Lan Ling still smiled shallowly and nodded: "How can you follow your master to the battlefield if you can't fight?"
"How long have you been with her? Have you ever seen the artillery and crossbowmen she trained?" Ningde couldn't help asking curiously: "It's a strange name. I've never heard of it before. I didn't hear about it until your majesty ordered to transfer troops..."
Blue Ling nodded again: "Why didn't the general ask the master directly? But it doesn't matter. Jiang Cheng's army has already taken a shortcut and is heading this way. About the afternoon after tomorrow, the general will be able to see crossbowmen, but the artillery will probably be much later..."
Bai Mei held the horse's neck and slept soundly.
She is not worried about what will happen to her army at all.
The so-called crossbow artillery... is Bai Mei's greatest achievement in the past five years. She has always been confident that these two armies, which have actually surpassed the times long ago, will bring surprises to friends and nightmares to enemies, at least in the short term. This is the capital she can rely on from another world.
Isn't it?
The man who coordinated the crossbowmen was Xiao Dongxi, who Bai Mei got out of the palace five years ago.
Although Xiao Dongxi appeared cowardly and timid at first, he was just a disguise for survival. After only two years around Bai Mei, he showed his crisp temper in the house, which was quite liked by Bai Mei.
