C286 (1/2)
The hot spring was at the top of the mountain. Ye Jinsu followed Ning Yunqi and rode for a while until they saw a trail of melting snow in front of them. As he went deeper, he could actually see balls of hot air.
There was indeed a spring here. The hot spring that emerged from it was shockingly hot. This area was covered by a white mist.
Ye Jinsu dismounted from her horse. She could still see a Silver Fox running through the mist and disappearing into the snow. In the area near the hot spring, there were even some green grass.
”This place is remote and hard to find. I haven't discovered it before.” Ning Yun hid behind her as she spoke. Ye Jinxiu turned her head and saw the dense cluster of trees and branches behind her. If it wasn't for the footprints being still there, she probably wouldn't have been able to find her way back.
Very deep indeed.
Ye Jinsu ran over to grab a handful of spring water. It was very pleasing to the eye.
This was a cliff with a broken mountain on the left. Not only was there a spring on the ground, there was also a spring on the mountain. However, the water was rather small, flowing down along the rocks. From the rocks to the places where the spring water had been poured over the ground, there were green sprouts growing out of them.
It was a rare sight to see such a green in this weather.
Ning Yunyin raised her head to look at the top of the cliff and suddenly said, ”I'll take you up.”
As Ye Jinsu was puzzled, Ning Yunyin held her in her arms. In the blink of an eye, he was already at the top of the cliff.
This area was made of rock and was completely barren of trees. The moment Ye Jinsu landed, she looked down at the entire horse farm from here. Not only that, he could even see the entire capital city.
Ye Jinsu's eyes lit up.
Red wall and white tiles, this scenery is really beautiful.
Ye Jinsu looked at the small square shaped city in the distance and suddenly fell silent. He could still see the outskirts. He could also see the snow-white mountains and rivers outside.
This was the place that Ning Yunyin wanted to own.
She lowered her eyes, only to hear Ning Yunyin sitting down at the side. ”Take Lingshuang back,” she said.
Ye Jinxiu turned around and looked at him with a puzzled expression. He knew that there was no place for the Ye Family to raise horses.
”Father ordered me to send the troops, so you take care of Lingshuang yourself.” Ning Yunxiao gazed at the scenery at the foot of the mountain as he spoke. From here he could feel the heat rising from below, warm and damp.
Ye Jinxiu was a little surprised, ”When did it happen?”
Why didn't she have any news?
”Today.” Ning Yun said in a low voice. Just now, before he came here, he had received the decree in the great hall.
Ye Jinsu's expression froze and she became speechless for a long time. Then, she suddenly laughed, ”You should go and fight. Why did you give Lingshuang to me? I'm going to have to get a stable back. It's a lot of trouble. ”
”If you bring it back, you can ride it anytime you want. There's no need for you to ride it back here.” Ning Yunyin said. The reason he didn't mention this earlier was because he was thinking that if Ye Jinsu wanted to ride a horse, he would have to come here.
At that time, he could come over and see her as well.
However, since he had already gone to fight, he might as well not let her go through so much trouble.
Ye Jinxiu lowered her eyes and nodded. She could be considered to have agreed.
She was silent for a moment. Neither of them spoke, but something was always tacit. Silence spread between the two of them. The tranquility caused Ye Jinsu to feel uneasy in her heart.
”Why did the Emperor send you out at this time?” Ye Jinxiu turned her head to look at him and asked in the end.
Ning Yunliang smiled and started to analyze the situation with her, ”Two months ago, the king of the Western Lion Kingdom passed away. His fifth son became the king, but it is said that his fifth son holds political power. Now that he has ascended to the throne, he has begun to harass our borders and infiltrate our capital secretly. ”
”The Emperor naturally cannot tolerate his presumptuous behavior.”
Ye Jinsu frowned slightly.
”You know that's not what I'm asking.”
”Why does the emperor want you to go? There are so many generals, can't others do the same?” Ye Jinsu frowned. With the current situation, the Qi King had just suffered a setback and the Emperor was about to send Ning Yunyin to fight at the border.
Wasn't this oppressing him?
”The imperial edict cannot be disobeyed.” Ning Yunyin only spoke indifferently.
He had a look of indifference on his face.
”How long will it take?”
”One year.”
