 "Young people should be careful about sex, middle-aged people should be careful about fighting, and old people should be careful about gaining! Look at you! You have children, and you are still acting like this! I..."

On the wide galloping road, a group of Tang cavalry in black armor were guarding a gorgeously decorated carriage, walking slowly toward the east. At the front of the team, a huge handsome flag with a Xiao character was fluttering in the wind!

Different from the majestic cavalry team, at this moment, in the carriage, the listless Xiao Han was wrapped in a thick blanket, rocking back and forth with the carriage, while enduring the old man's spitting stars flying all over the sky!

"No! I have to go to the latrine!"

Finally, Xiao Han, whose ears were disturbed, could no longer stand the old man's nagging, so he used the excuse of peeing to escape, opened the carriage curtain and got out!

After leaving the oppressive carriage and being stirred by the fresh cold wind outside, Xiao Han's groggy mind finally regained its clarity.

At this time, the outside was no longer as cold as before. The thick ice and snow had melted, the trees had sprouted, and even the land on both sides of the road had some green.

And in this belated spring day, those ordinary farmers who had been struggling for a long time quickly took advantage of this rare warm weather to bring their families and families to the battle! They were busy planting food.

Although, almost all the winter wheat in the fields had been frozen to death, and the spring planting was delayed.

But if we start replanting now, there is still hope that we will be able to harvest another crop of grain when winter comes this year!

God, after all, has left a way for the poor people to survive and has not done everything possible!

If this land is allowed to freeze for another month, no! Even if it remains frozen for half a month, then this year's land conditions will be completely in vain!

By then, those who live near Chang'an and whose families are a little better off will be fine, and those who live on a shoestring budget will probably be able to survive until next year's new grain comes.

But the poor people who are farther away from Chang'an are completely doomed. They are lucky to survive this winter!

There were even some people who had no land at home. Because they could not help the landlords farm the land, they were kicked out alive and became homeless people with no fixed abodes. They might die of cold and hunger at some point.

"Why are you willing to get out of the car?"

Just when Xiao Han was looking at the old farmer working in the fields in the distance, Liu Hongji, who was dressed in golden light armor and as handsome as an Oscar winner, drove his horse to run over, bowed down, and looked at him with a condescending expression.

asked.

"It's stuffy inside, come out and get some air!" Naturally, Xiao Han wouldn't tell Liu Hongji that he was addicted to women and had a headache from being talked about by Master Tang Seng, so he escaped to hide for a while, so he casually made up an excuse to deal with it.

"Oh~" Liu Hongji heard this and nodded in a long voice, with a look that didn't deserve a beating. It made Xiao Han's teeth feel itchy and he wanted to jump up and punch him in the eye!

"Xiaodong! Xiaodong! Where did he go? Get me a horse!"

Not wanting to pay attention to this old pervert, Xiao Han turned his head and shouted to the cavalry team, and soon, he saw Xiaodong, who was also covered in armor, riding a horse and shivering out of the team.

"Hou...Hou...Master Hou, you first...ride me first!" With great difficulty, Xiaodong fell off the horse and was suspended by the heavy armor on his body. A dog gnawed on him, waiting for him to finally stabilize his body.

, then he said to Xiao Han with chattering teeth.

"What about you?" Xiao Han took the reins from Xiaodong and looked at him in confusion.

My trip this time was a rare formal honor guard, so it was impossible that I didn't even bring a prepared horse.

When Xiaodong heard Xiao Han's question, he grinned and answered with a laborious smile: "I...I'm fine, I'm just a little cold. Let's run around first and move around."

There is no other way. Xiaodong has been in the Xiao family for a long time and has not been on such a regular trip for a long time.

As a result, Xiaodong, who is Xiao Han's personal soldier, has long been unaccustomed to wearing a helmet and armor on the road.

In addition, the weather is still a bit cold now. The steel armor was blown by the cold wind, and it was extremely cold. Wearing it on the body, it felt like being in an ice cube! It was so cold that Xiaodong's bones seemed to be cold from the inside.

gas.

"Look at how cowardly you are!" Seeing Xiaodong's trembling appearance, the nosy Liu Hongji rolled his huge bull's eyes, then took out a wine bag from his arms as if disgusted, and threw it to

Him: "Drink some wine and warm yourself up!"

"Thank you, General Liu!" Xiaodong took the wine and was immediately overjoyed! He quickly pulled out the cork and took a sip under the envious eyes of everyone!

Sure enough, as soon as I took a sip of wine, I suddenly felt a warm current in my lower abdomen, which instantly filled my whole body. It was no longer the feeling of being about to freeze as before.

"Hey? Drink less!" Xiao Han had just climbed onto the horse at this time. When he saw Xiaodong about to take a second sip, he couldn't help but stop him: "Drinking can't keep you away from the cold! It can only make you burn calories faster.

If you don’t want to get even worse from the cold soon, don’t drink it!”

"Oh..." Xiaodong heard Xiao Han's words. Although he was a little reluctant, he still collected the wine bag obediently and handed it back to Liu Hongji.

What the Marquis said was never missed! No matter how outrageous or unbelievable it was! But in the end, it would still be proven that Xiao Han was right, so Xiaodong and the others would never doubt Xiao Han's words!

He said that drinking alcohol will make the cold worse, so it will definitely get worse, and it will definitely not get better or stay the same!

"Tch!" Liu Hongji was a little dissatisfied with Xiao Han's act of ruining the scenery, especially since the wine was given to Xiaodong by himself. When he said this, it seemed as if he had intentionally harmed Xiaodong. How could he bear it?

So, Liu Hongji, who took the wine, deliberately pulled out the cork in front of Xiao Han, tilted his neck, took a big gulp of wine, and then laughed loudly like a demonstration: "Who said drinking can't keep out the cold? Look at this sip of wine.

Come down and feel warm all over!"

"Bah!" Hearing this, Xiao Han rolled his eyes, knowing that what he just said was a bit embarrassing to Liu Hongji, so he didn't bother to talk to him and just continued to ride behind the carriage.

However, seeing Xiao Han ignoring him, Liu Hongji became even more enthusiastic. He drank another sip of wine in front of him, then looked around, smashed his thick lips and made a loud noise, which attracted the attention of other people in the team.

They were all snickering secretly.

"Ahem, Lao Liu, have you ever seen anyone freeze to death?"

Finally, Xiao Han, who couldn't bear it any longer, looked at Liu Hongji, who was constantly playing tricks, with a dark face and asked.

"I've seen it before, what's wrong?" Hearing this, Liu Hongji turned around and asked in confusion.

"Then among the people you've seen who froze to death, are there some who were naked and still had a smile on their face?" Xiao Han continued to ask slowly and politely.

"Yes...yes!" After saying this, Liu Hongji's face immediately changed, from the original rosy and translucent to pale!
