"Your Majesty, are you sleeping?" Concubine Gan stood up, and the brocade quilt slid down the curve, revealing a body like a white jade sculpture. It was her turn to sleep tonight.
Listening to the crisp sound of sparks coming from the charcoal stove, Ye Qing knew it was Nan Ke Yimeng. Thinking of the dream, his heart jumped wildly. Looking at Concubine Gan holding the lamp, he breathed a sigh of relief and pondered again, feeling that something big was about to happen. He settled in the darkness.
After calming down, he shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just had a dream..."
Looking outside the tent, the cold wind is howling, and there are shadows and snowflakes. A little further away, dozens of guards are standing motionless in front of the tent like nails, giving people a slightly chilling feeling.
Farther away, several officials were directing the movement of stacks of documents.
Concubine Gan took a breath when she saw Ye Qing lying on the couch staring at the ceiling, as if he was deep in thought, or listening to the howling wind outside.
"I want to go to the Yellow River embankment to have a look." Ye Qing stood up and said.
"It's so far, I'll go with you."
"You are tired from leading a patrol during the day. Please rest more." Ye Qing pushed her back on the bed, comforted her softly, and then put on his clothes and went out.
Concubine Gan... or Cao Baijing looked at his back, sighed slightly, and transmitted the message to the side of the tent.
As soon as Ye Qing went out, Zhou Ling, who was farther away, immediately woke up and stood up quickly. In just a few steps, there were guards gathered, hundreds of them, following Ye Qing, quietly waiting for orders.
Ye Qing was always amiable and approachable almost every day he met, but there was a faint aura about him that was awe-inspiring.
Ye Qing suddenly ordered: "Go to the river embankment"
"Yes" Bai immediately mounted his horse, wearing leather armor and a large cloak, and left the camp.
After running for a while, they arrived at the embankment of the Yellow River. Ye Qing looked at the dim sky, pressed the cold hilt of his sword with his hand, and got down. The snow squeaked under his thick boots, and he led everyone up the embankment.
There had been no one here for a long time, and it was covered with feet-deep snow. It was cold and gloomy. Ye Qing was filled with thoughts, and he stared at the night sadly, listening to the rustle of the heavy snow falling on the ground, and finally sighed for a long time.
Ye Qing walked up and down, leaving a series of deep footprints in the snow until he reached a high place, and then he lowered his head and looked up.
A sheet of silver, the Yellow River is frozen, solidifying waves, extending endlessly in the field of vision. Connected to the mountains beside the river, the entire Northland is covered with cold frost.
This winter has been cold and cold. Since the beginning of winter, the heavy snow has almost never stopped. Sometimes it is light and sometimes it is heavy. Snowflakes are everywhere in the distant villages and near the outline. All the ditches are flattened. Occasionally, the snow stops and the pale sun moves slowly. In less than half a day, the heavy snow falls.
A thick cloud layer came over again, and everything turned into a snowy world again.
A feeling of loneliness made him remain silent for a long time.
At this moment, a ray of light penetrated the snowflakes and fell among the guards in the distance. A girl in a silver-white fur robe was revealed in the red light of the torch.
The guards all saluted: "Your Majesty"
When Little Empress Mi nodded her head and came to the river, she only glanced at the frozen Yellow River below and said nothing. She just stayed close and stuck behind Ye Qing, holding her waist with her hands, conveying her body temperature and support.
Ye Qing didn't need to turn his head, he could tell by the touch and breath behind him, but it was Empress Mi who apologized a little: "I woke you all up."
"It's okay, husband, what did you dream about? Is there an economic problem in the rear?" Queen Mi asked softly.
"...No, according to the statistical account books for this year sent by the Queen Mother a few days ago, food and cold-weather clothing can still be guaranteed, but the inventory of spiritual stone resources has dropped below the red line, and subsequent production will have to wait until the spring of next year to support the second raid. This is all
It’s something that’s expected.”
Empress Xiao Mi bit her lip and asked, "That is it?"
Ye Qing knew her character, so he could only tell the truth: "I dreamed of a yellow dragon lying here. When I ride on it, it will fly to the sky and circle around Jizhou's outer nest several times. The wind and snow will not block my sight, and I can see the entire China.
Dadi... basically understood what was going on, but when I called the dragon down, it didn't listen to my command and kept heading west... westward."
Queen Xiao Mi frowned: "West...is it Chang'an, or the Western Regions?"
"It's Chang'an. I saw the red air covering my sight. I ordered it to open up, and I saw a shadow connecting Shu and Chang'an."
"Boo!" The snow exploded with a sound. Ye Qing's eyes flashed and he stopped talking. Seeing that Queen Mi was worried, he smiled and comforted: "Of course, this shadow is also compared to the brightness in Luoyang and other places to the east...
…”
When Ye Qing said this, he turned around again by the river and cast his eyes towards the military camp in the distance. The flames of flames flashed in his field of vision.
"Bang" the gate of the military camp opened from the inside. Amidst the sound of horse hooves, several magicians hurried out and rushed towards here, looking anxious.
Ye Qing remained silent. Empress Xiao Mi secretly had some guesses and stopped asking questions. She waited for them to come up and asked her subordinates: "What's the matter?"
She hurriedly chased Ye Qing out. She was wearing only a mink fur coat with a vacuum inside. Standing in the snow, she showed off her graceful curves. However, these magicians did not dare to look at them. They just bowed and said: "Your Majesty.
, Qi Niangniang, this is a secret report from the West Road insider..."
"Liu Yan has personally led the delegation to Chang'an to congratulate the puppet emperor on the New Year, hand over the Shu land, population register, sacrifice to the ancestral temple, and prepare to participate in the Temple of Heaven sacrifice in Xijing tomorrow..."
When the telegraph master said this, he buried his forehead deeply into the cold snow, feeling frightened in his heart.
Wancheng's status as the southern capital once attracted Yuan Shu's ambition to become emperor. Chang'an City was designated as the Western Capital by Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Soon there was an ancestral temple, and the Temple of Heaven in the Western Han Dynasty was still preserved. But everyone knows the entire Han Dynasty's radiation system, from the east to the East China Sea and to the west.
In the Western Region, from Jiaozhi in the south to the grassland in the north, there is only one person with the power to worship heaven, which is a symbol of the destiny of heaven.
What surprised the messenger magician was that what greeted him was not the emperor's anger, but a chuckle with disdain: "No wonder..."
Ye Qing narrowed his eyes, and the dream became clearer. He was a great dragon, the son of destiny. He would obviously be able to sense this kind of heaven-sacrifice activity, but the information was vague, so he had the dream just now...
"Go down."
"Yes." Several magicians crawled back and heaved a sigh of relief when they rode back to the camp. They guessed that this was probably because the forces in Shu and Chang'an were weak. Jizhou could be dealt with by turning their heads after the victory, which prevented His Majesty from returning to the army in anger.
Peace returned to the snow. Queen Mi looked away, still hugging her husband, and still asked about the dream: "What happened next... Husband, please don't change the subject. My cousin told me that what you had was a nightmare."
Ye Qing was silent for a while and then said: "The Yellow Dragon followed the Yellow River and flew to the north... It was probably approaching the northern end of the Hetao, and I could faintly hear something roaring on the grassland further north."
"When I was about to go over to take a look, I bumped into a big sun and fell into the Yellow River. The water was very cold and biting... I saw under the water that the entire Yellow River was frozen in an instant. Now that I look at it, it's really like that.
."
"Dreams are not reality. They are often distorted projections. There are some metaphors in them. I can only analyze some. For example, I understood the omens from Shu to Chang'an just now, and they even took me to Hetao..." Ye Qingning
He raised his eyebrows and pressed his fingers on the hilt of the sword: "I know Murong is there, but for me, the 20,000 blood wolf army is just meager and not enough to cause any trouble."
"Some other doubtful points are unclear, such as what is the Great Sun Golden Wheel?"
"I have the body of a true dragon, but the yellow dragon that carried me up didn't listen to my command. It probably wasn't dragon energy, but it wasn't dragon energy..."
"It's the clan spirit of the big man." Little Empress Mi looked up at him, her eyes bright and clear: "I vaguely remember that there was clan spirit on the ground a long time ago. I can feel it..."
"I remember telling my husband that when you came to the soil to pull out the Chixiao Sword, I also felt it once. When you touched the Jade Seal at Hulao Pass, it was the second time... Tonight is the third time..."
She lowered her head and stared at the frozen river at her feet: "This time, it's the Yellow River... It's not a dragon. It doesn't obey your command, husband. And after it freezes, the virtual yellow dragon will naturally fall down, but it falls on the
In the Hetao area, this is a kind of warning...it is in line with my husband's judgment that the grassland has changed."
Ye Qing listened quietly and stared at the frozen thousand-mile river at his feet. A thought flashed through his mind and he narrowed his eyes and said: "You are right... I did dream of Huanglong lying in this place. Everything is consistent, except
What is the Great Sun Golden Wheel...perhaps I should ask Nuwa."
"It doesn't actually matter what the answer is. It's just an attitude. There are too many unexpected things in the world, and the numbers of fortune may not be in line with people's expectations." Ye Qing glanced at the distance and sighed silently, feeling angry and melancholy.
There was still a sense of inexplicable fear that struck my heart, so I had to grit my teeth and stand firm.
"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?" Little Empress Mi was actually Qianqian. She felt his emotional changes keenly and turned to look at Ye Qing in surprise.
Ye Qing was silent at first and looked at the guards. Although they had armor and cloaks, Ye Qing knew that they had scars from swords, arrows, guns, fires...
When the country was founded, all the bodyguards were veterans of many battles.
Ye Qing let out a heavy breath and sneered: "It's difficult to achieve anything. Originally, the world under the earth was just unified. I didn't want me to encounter such troubles here."
"Outland, the Yellow Turbans, and the Star Lord Ship are all gone. The Han Dynasty is clearly unified, but Shu still wants to collude with Chang'an. This is really puzzling."
"Chang'an, do you still have the capital to make people take refuge?"
"As for the grassland, it seems that Murong is about to become the climate. Otherwise, how could there be a dream police?"
"The Huns were divided between the north and the south, and no one was convinced by the other. How could Murong Zheng become the leader in such a short period of time?"
"After the unification of the Han Dynasty, although the green system was promulgated, it was just a red dragon spirit. I originally just wanted to be a wise king, good at governing, with a command system of Dao Xun, and a spiritual stone machine, which made the Han Dynasty prosperous. Change to Huanglong
, even the body of a blue dragon."
“I don’t want good things to go awry.”
"Your Majesty, you also know that this is a long-term journey. This means that once the golden dragon is freed from its shackles, it will rise to the top. I believe that your majesty will have a bright future not only in the lower soil, but also in the upper soil."
"Why should you take this temporary setback to heart?" Xiao Empress Mi is both a queen and a noblewoman in this world. What she said is really heart-warming.
Ye Qing breathed out. He had also been influenced by Chinese culture and was becoming more and more in line with his wishes. He smiled and said, "You are right."
"Look at this vast land, who is in charge of the ups and downs?"
