As expected, the snowflakes became heavier and heavier, and in the end, it snowed heavily.

In just a short moment, the snow on the ground had already flown past his ankles, but the goose feather snow still had no intention of stopping.

Yun Xiao stood in the tent and looked out through the window. She had not retracted her gaze for a long time.

It was so far away from the battlefield that Yun Xiao could faintly hear the sounds of weapons colliding on the battlefield between the two armies. From this, it could be seen how intense the confrontation between the two armies was this time.

Seeing Yun Xiao standing by the window without saying anything or laughing, Liu’er frowned worriedly and slowly walked forward, “Princess, go in. It’s cold here.”

Yun Xiao just shook her head. She wanted to stay here and watch Rong Jin return.

The intensity of this battle meant that this battle would soon end.

After an unknown amount of time, Yun Xiao seemed to hear the sound of the army returning. She ran out anxiously, her eyes filled with unconcealable anticipation.

When Liu’er saw Yun Xiao’s appearance, she immediately chased after a piece of mink skin, put it on Yun Xiao, covered it with an umbrella, and followed Yun Xiao closely to the entrance of the barracks.

Running all the way to the entrance of the barracks, Yun Xiao could clearly feel the tremors on the ground, which meant that the army was getting closer and closer to her.

Yun Xiao paced at the door with one foot deep and one foot shallow, as if this was the only way to calm herself down.

Time passed bit by bit, and a thick layer of snow had already appeared on Yun Xiao’s body. Liu’er gently swept away the snow on Yun Xiao’s body.

Right at this moment, Yun Xiao saw a dark army not far away moving in this direction.

Yun Xiao looked at the darkness, and Gujing Wubo’s eyes immediately landed on the blood-colored figure at the front of the line, unable to move his gaze away.

Two tears suddenly dripped down from the corner of her eyes. Yun Xiao immediately raised her hand to wipe it away. Her gaze was still fixed on the tall figure riding on the horse without blinking.

The figure was getting closer and closer. Yun Xiao could already smell a faint fragrance of magnolia flowers in the smell of blood. Yun Xiao’s eyes flashed with joy that she had never felt before.

Rong Jin looked at the woman who couldn’t control her emotions for a moment. She cried and laughed for a while. A trace of emotion flashed through her pitch-black eyes. She hugged the petite figure tightly in her arms and whispered, “I’m back.”

This sound seemed to suck all the strength out of Yun Xiao’s body.

Yun Xiao leapt into Rong Jin’s arms tightly. Smelling the faint fragrance of magnolia flowers mixed with the rich smell of blood on his body, Yun Xiao felt that she had never felt at ease.

The army returned one after another, and neither of them interrupted the two figures who were hugging each other tightly.

Yun Xiao waited until her mood had almost calmed down. Only then did she leave Rong Jin’s embrace slightly. Her eyes filled with faint joy landed on the pair of black eyes. She said softly, “Husband, I have not let you down.”

Rong Jin stared at the palm-sized face. He felt the surge in his eyes becoming more and more intense. He then moved closer and tightly clasped Yun Xiao’s lips. After lingering for two times, it took him a long time to stop.

The two of them separated. A faint blush appeared on Yun Xiao’s cheeks. Rong Jin hugged Yun Xiao’s waist and walked towards the military camp. His gentle voice sounded like the best in the world. “You did a good job.”

If it weren’t for Yun Xiao sending her winter clothes over at the right time, this battle would have been very tragic.

As for their troops, because they had prepared their winter clothes earlier, they were so effective in the war that under the heavy snow and goose feathers, they killed the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty unprepared, and finally ended up with a miserable defeat in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Even so, Rong Jin still didn’t dare to let down his guard. He instructed the soldiers to keep an eye on him and wait in a tight formation. If the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty launched an attack, they could retaliate immediately.

Yun Xiao looked at the sky that was still drifting with snow and whispered, “I wonder how long this snow will last.” She hoped that it could last for a while longer, so that they would have time to rest.

“I don’t know. However, after a snowstorm, the two armies will still not be able to escape a battle.” Rong Jin actually hoped that this battle would end as soon as possible. Otherwise, as long as the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were given time to catch their breath, he didn’t know what methods Zhou Jingyan and Xiao Yuqi would use to counterattack.

Rong Jin had never forgotten that in his previous life, when the two of them had formed an alliance, he had almost lost to the two of them. The reason why he was able to win the battle was because he thought that all the people he cared about had died. There was nothing left for him to worry about at this time, so much so that he would put himself to death every time during the war.

Because of this, he could only win this war. However, in this life, he had worries. He could no longer use the desperate methods of his previous life to fight. He had to consider it for Yun Xiao and the others.

However, Rong Jin was very glad that with Yun Xiao by his side in this life, he would not become a machine that could only kill people.

“At the very least, we can recuperate a bit.” The soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty had suffered many casualties in this battle, so it was naturally good to buy some time for those soldiers to recover.

Rong Jin nodded. He didn’t comment on this matter.

That night, Yun Xiao personally served Rong Jin to bathe and change his clothes. It was to see if there were any wounds on Rong Jin’s body. When he saw a wound on Rong Jin’s shoulder, his brows furrowed tightly. When he took the medicine to bandage Rong Jin, his heart ached. However, he knew that in this kind of war, even if Rong Jin’s hand was not bad, his fists were hard to defeat, and his injuries were unavoidable.

After treating the wound, Yun Xiao leaned against Rong Jin’s embrace and asked softly, “May I know what happened to Green Orchid now?” Now, she could at least touch Rong Jin’s body, but Tie Qinglan did not even know where Rong Xun was, but she still wanted to find Rong Xun’s whereabouts.

“I’ve already received news from the Dark Guards. She is very safe now and is fine.” However, with the direction Tie Qinglan is looking for, could it be that she wants to find Rong Xun very much?

Hearing this, Yun Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. “Actually, I really hope that Qing Lan and Rong Xun can be together.” Although the two of them inevitably quarrel when they are together, this is also a way to get along. Especially, every time the two of them quarrel, Yun Xiao can feel Rong Xun’s nerves relax.

Rong Xun probably didn’t notice his change, but Yun Xiao did.

“I hope so too,” Rong Jin’s eyes, which were as black as a ghost, surged with a faint glint.

Ever since he married Yun Xiao, Rong Jin was very greedy for this kind of scene with a lovely wife and children around him. Naturally, he also hoped that his only brother would be happy.

Not to mention that in his previous life, he had personally ended Rong Xun’s life and freed him from his triumph. In this life, he hoped that Rong Xun would also be happy without the torture of Joyous Emotion Poison.

Yun Xiao stared at Rong Jin with a dry smile. The tacit understanding between the husband and wife immediately let Rong Jin know what Yun Xiao wanted to do. He shook his head and sighed. He held Yun Xiao in his arms again, “As you wish!”

…

In the temporary palace in Cangzhou City, Zhou Jingyan’s face was ashen as he swept all the memorials on the table to the ground.

However, he still couldn’t suppress the hatred in his heart.

He hadn’t expected that the hundred thousand troops sent last night would be completely annihilated! And the six hundred thousand troops sent out today had fought against the troops of West Vietnam for a day and night, and in the end, they had actually lost one hundred and seventy thousand troops!

The death toll alone was 170,000! This did not include the injured soldiers. In addition to this heavy snow, their casualties were even greater! Not only were there casualties, there were also 200,000 people who had caught a cold!

How could such an army be compared to Rong Jin’s?

Zhou Jingyan’s eyes flickered with a dense harsh expression, and his eyes were filled with embarrassment that he couldn’t conceal. He had suffered a miserable defeat in this war!

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, a trace of viciousness appeared in his eyes. He said coldly, “Someone, clean up all the things here for me.”

Immediately, a palace servant quickly walked in, tidied up the things in the room, and was about to go down. However, at this moment, Zhou Jingyan’s expression suddenly darkened.

Zhou Jingyan clutched his chest and all the pain on his body surged up. This kind of pain was almost unbearable to Zhou Jingyan. He sternly said, “Someone, hurry up and invite the Empress!” Ever since Wulan Village parted, although the poison on his body was suppressed by Xiao Yuqi, it could not be cleaned up for a while. He could only rely on Xiao Yuqi’s medicine to suppress the pain in his body.

The door to the study opened wide, and two unexpected figures quickly walked in.

Xiao Yuqi’s calm brows swept across the room. After a long time, she said softly, “Your Majesty, why are you so angry? Didn’t you just lose a match? You can win back in the future!”

Zhou Jingyan’s gloomy eyebrows landed on Xiao Yuqi’s indifferent eyebrows. He waved his wide sleeve, causing everyone in the room to go down. Only then did he look at Xiao Yuqi and coldly said, “Where’s the antidote? Take it out!”

Xiao Yuqi winked at the woman beside her who was wrapped in black. An Hua nodded and took out a bottle of medicine from her bosom and placed it in front of Zhou Jingyan.

However, the hand that she stretched out raised its dried-up skin up one by one. There was not a single piece of intact skin that made people feel numb when they looked at it.

When Zhou Jingyan’s gaze landed on that hand, his face became even paler. Such a hand that was neither human nor ghost was simply terrifying. Now, he actually wanted to eat the antidote from this hand.

However, recalling the unbearable pain in his body, Zhou Jingyan could only take out the medicine bottle and swallow the medicine inside. However, when he swallowed the medicine, his expression was extremely embarrassing. It was even more embarrassing than if he had eaten Coptis chinensis.

Xiao Yuqi admired Zhou Jingyan’s expression at this moment. A harsh expression appeared in her icy cold eyes. She had to admit that she had deliberately let An Hua carry the antidote. Now, she was willing to do anything that could disgust Zhou Jingyan.

However, what she said was completely different from what she thought in her heart. “Since His Majesty has already taken the antidote, let’s discuss how to deal with Country of Xiyue’s army. There is another matter that I think we should inform His Majesty that gunpowder is ready and ready to be used at any time.”
