Chapter 226 More than half of the people in Baicheng died!
Xiangli looked at her, his eyes that were always gentle were full of indifference at this moment.
"Qianqian, you don't need me. I know how you treated Lingxiang back then."
After that, he gently held Lin Lingxiang's hand and turned it And walked forward, no longer looking at Xiang Qianqian.
The angry Xiang Qianqian could only stare at his retreating figure, but there was nothing she could do.
She couldn't stand the cold wind blowing, so she could only crawl back into the carriage in embarrassment.
The night is already dark, and there are enough firewood burning in Xiangying's two carriages.
After Taoxue took the three little ones to sleep, Xiangying secretly replaced the firewood with silver charcoal in the space.
This kind of charcoal will not produce white smoke when burned, and it will not cause too much carbon dioxide to cause suffocation when placed near the door of the car.
Fortunately, the carriage was not completely enclosed. In order to ensure the temperature, Xiangying covered the three walls of the carriage with quilts in the evening.
The children and Jin were lying on the innermost side, with Taoxue in the middle, and then Xiangying.
Qi Fengyi always held his sword and sat leaning against the door of the carriage.
It was late and Xiangying was not sleepy.
Listening to the howling wind outside, she couldn't help but put on thick clothes and go check on their horses.
In such a cold weather, the horses were led to the shed and mixed with Xie Chen and their horses.
The entire stable was also covered with heavy felt curtains. Seeing the horses resting on the ground, Xiangying felt relieved and went to the second carriage to take a look.
Lin Lingxiang and the seventh princess Xiang Rongrong slept in the innermost room, separated by a curtain. Outside were Xiangli, the Imperial Academy Master Chu, and Mr. Lin.
Xiangying secretly changed their charcoal fire to silver charcoal. This small movement made Xiangli open his eyes.
"A Ying, haven't you slept yet?" He sat up and subconsciously handed over the blanket he was wearing.
Xiangying lay on the shaft of the car and smiled at him: "I'm afraid your firewood went out, so I came to see if it's not cold, brother?"
Xiang Li hugged the blanket and smiled and said, "It's not cold. The deputy general also sent someone to visit just now. Don't worry."
Jie Chen has been here too? She didn't know.
Xiangying's expression changed briefly. Soon, she said with a smile: "Brother, you can rest, I'll go back to the carriage in front."
She was He was about to leave, but was stopped by Xiang Li.
“A Ying,” Xiang Li whispered, “you shouldn’t come back.”
Xiangying paused and heard Xiangli say: "Once we enter South Vietnam, everything will be out of our control."
The wind and snow howled, blowing over Xiangying's exposed cheeks, bringing snow particles. Touch.
She raised her fingers, rubbed them twice, and said casually: "Brother, is there a possibility that I just want to enter the palace of South Vietnam?"
Xiangli was stunned for a moment, confusion rising in his eyes.
His pupils reflected Xiangying's completely calm look.
Even the smile is so pretty.
"Just wait and see, my cheap father almost killed us, how can I make it easier for him."
As he said that, Xiangying waved his hand, put down the curtain, and turned back to himself on the carriage.
Just after standing outside for a while, her clothes were covered with frost and snow.
Hang the clothes next to the stove to bake, Xiangying took out the drone from the space.
She wanted to see how far away Baicheng was.
The snow was so heavy that it had already covered the official road.
The stealth drone was released. Fortunately, it was not affected by the heavy snow and flew forward without any hindrance.
On a dark night, the snow on the ground reflects the light, making it look miserable. The howling wind and snow slowed down the drone slightly. Xiangying used infrared detection and found that the road ahead was so long that there was no end in sight.
At this moment, a black spot quickly approached the inn where they were.
Zooming in the screen, Xiangying discovered that it was the spy soldier sent out by Jie Chen before.
The drone followed his galloping horse's hooves and flew back.
Before the horse could be tightened, the spy soldier rolled off the horse, as if he had been greatly frightened.
"Lieutenant General, no good, Lieutenant General!" He got up from the snow and rushed into Jie Chen's camp.
Xiangying quickly let the drone follow him, only to hear the spy soldier shouting in a hoarse and tearing voice: "Only half of the 120,000 people in Baicheng are dead! The city gate has been closed now!"
The flames in Jie Chen's tent suddenly ignited.
In order to centralize heating and save firewood, several captains and soldiers stayed in Jie Chen's tent.
Hearing the spies' words, everyone woke up one after another. Suan Xiucai even said directly: "Vice general, it seems we must change our route."
Why didn't Xie Chen not want to? But he had already studied the terrain, and the nearest place to stay was in Baicheng. Even if they returned the same way and rested in the previous town, they would still have to walk for two or three days.
The current supplies are completely insufficient unless he asks Xiang Ying for help.
But if he does this, Xiangying's ability will be easily exposed to others, which will bring danger to her.
Xie Chen looked solemn, staring at the road deduction on the sand table, and fell into a long silence.
The whole camp was waiting for him to make up his mind.
If you take a step back, you may freeze to death, or you may lose your way and be wiped out.
Ahead is the plague-ridden White City. The only advantage is that it can avoid the wind and keep warm.
Finally, Xie Chen made up his mind.
"Get everyone up, and we will march towards Baicheng overnight."
He wrote another letter personally, and at the same time asked the spy soldier to take his token: "Go and tell The city guard in Baicheng is ready to open the door to welcome us and give us a place to accommodate hundreds of people."
The spy soldier nodded, opened the curtain and broke into the vast snowy night.
In the Sixth Prince's carriage, Xiang Qianqian opened the curtain and saw the spy soldier coming back in a hurry, and then leaving in a hurry.
The voice she shouted just now was heart-piercing and frightened her to wake up.
The sixth prince next to him also opened his eyes and listened to the movement outside.
"Your Highness, the spy soldier has left again."
The sixth prince sat up, his eyes narrowed and he said: "It seems that Jie Chen has made up his mind to enter Baicheng."
< br>
Xiang Qianqian was startled and said hurriedly: "Your Highness should stop it. Just now the spies said that more than half of the 120,000 people in Baicheng died. How could Your Highness go to such a place with such a noble body."
In the dim carriage, the Sixth Prince There was light in his eyes, and a sinister smile appeared on the corners of his lips.
"How stupid. This is my chance. Of course Baicheng should go."
Xiang Qianqian's heart thumped and she looked at him in confusion.
The sixth prince said nothing more, raised the curtain and looked out the window at the heavy snow in the dark night.
"God is really helping me."
If all the exiled team died in the epidemic this time, Xie Chen's sin would be great, and he would not be able to escape the blame!
Even when he returned to the capital, his father wanted to give him any compensation, but he was forced to give up under pressure.
The Sixth Prince knew that his chance had finally come.
Xiangying took the drone back, put on her clothes and woke Qi Fengyi up.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Qi Fengyi rubbed his eyes.
Xiang Ying said: "Jie Chen will start the team soon. It is cold and slippery ahead. You and I will tie non-slip cotton cloth to the hooves of each horse."
