It was raining heavily.

Mo Zhu held an umbrella in one hand and Ye Chen in the other hand, and entered Wuhua Pavilion.

"Uncle Beauty! Is my aunt awake?" Ye Chen stood on the first floor, raised his head to ask, his voice clear.

"Baby, guess." Nangong Heng's joking voice came from above.

Ye Chen shook his head and sighed: "I can't guess! Uncle Beauty is so bad!"

The stairs were a little high, Ye Chen climbed up with some difficulty and ran to the edge of the bed. Seeing Ye Ling still lying with her eyes closed, her little face was disappointed: "Why haven't my aunt woken up yet... I've been sleeping for a long time!"

Nangong Heng picked up Ye Chen and smiled: "I'll wake up tomorrow."

Ye Chen rolled his eyes to Nangong Heng: "Uncle Beauty, you always lie to me!"

Ye Chen played with Nangong Heng for a while, and Mo Zhu sent him back to Songfengju.

At noon, Mo Zhu brought a bowl of hot noodles.

"The third young master said that today is the master's 16th birthday. She is still asleep and the whole family needs to eat longevity noodles." Mo Zhu said to Nangong Heng.

Nangong Heng nodded, looking at the bowl of noodles, but he didn't have much appetite. He missed the noodles made by Ye Ling. If Ye Ling was awake, they could make longevity noodles together...

However, Nangong Heng still ate the bowl of noodles. After eating, he looked at Ye Ling and said, "Xiao Yezi, there is still a long time today. If you wake up, I will make you longevity noodles."

Chongming City, northern border.

Ye Ying and Song Qingyu arrived here at the end of August.

One is Ye Sheng's eldest daughter, the other is Song Feng's only son. Several generals in Chongming City, regardless of whether they recognize Ye Ying and Song Qingyu's abilities in their hearts, they are at least obedient on the surface, and that's enough.

The Beihu army in Pu Xuecheng has been provoking for several days.

But Ye Ying ordered that the enemy would not move. He let the Northern Hu people shout wildly, Chongming City was as quiet as this. Ye Ying and Song Qingyu focused on training troops in the city, and ignored the Northern Hu people at all.

On the eighth day of the September 19th, a group of people from Beihu crossed the Mingxue River and approached the north gate of Chongming City. The leader, a sharp arrow, shot the flag of Nanchu flying high above the city gate!

The people of Beihu laughed out loud!

"Nan Chu's grandson used inconvenient tricks to steal ten cities from your Grandpa Beihu. Now he has a genital to fight with his grandpa!"

"The people in Nanchu are all girls! They have fine skin and tender flesh, everything, but they just don't have any seeds! Hahaha!"

"This is called a turtle shrouding head! As the commander of Nan Chu, there will be no good ending! Ye Sheng is dead, Yun Yao is dead, and the widow and Princess Zhan is almost dead! Another real lady comes, and she is still a man who has not married and has a son with a wild man! You guys, when will she die?"

"I think it's better to choose a day than a day! She has the courage to come out today, so let's let her reunite with her father today! Hahahaha!"

"Nan Chu's ladies! I'm so grown up! Grandpa is waiting here!"

...

The soldiers on the north city tower of Chongming City were all so angry that they heard the humiliation of the "women" by the Beihu people. They really wanted to go out and fight to the death with the Beihu people!

Unfortunately, Ye Ying ordered that he would not move!

When General Wang saw Ye Ying, she was sitting at the stone table in the yard reading a book. She was slender, cold, quiet and calm, as if this was not a border, but the Jingwang Mansion Garden in the capital.

"General Ye!"

This title that once belonged to Ye Sheng was formerly Ye Ling, but now it has become Ye Ying again.

Ye Ying raised his head, put down the book, and asked with a faint expression: "General Wang, what's the matter?"

"After crossing the river, the barbarians of the North Hu shouted outside the city! The words were dirty and sarcastic, and they were extremely unpleasant! They said that we were all turtles! When will General Ye plan to fight back?" General Wang looked angry.

Ye Ying stood up: "When will the Beihu army cross the Mingxue River and come to attack the city, and when will it fight? Before that, don't pay attention."

General Wang frowned: "Why do we have to wait until we are passively beaten before taking action?"

Ye Ying shook his head: "The provocations of the Beihu people over the past few days are intended to anger us. When we can't calm down, we take the initiative to cross the Mingxue River and fight Puxue City."

General Wang's expression was condensed, and Ye Ying said, "Chongming City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Once we send troops across the river, we will be trapped in the North Hu's trick. The most taboo and impulse in war. Now we can't help but want to fight the North Hu people. We can't hold on to the army, and wait until they can't help but cross the river to attack the city. The initiative is in our hands."

"General Ye is right!" General Wang nodded and sighed in his heart. They thought that Ye Ying would be eager to show off just as he became the chief general, but she did not expect that she was so calm.

General Wang reported to Ye Ying the latest information on Beihu Puxuecheng found by the spies. After the report was completed, he was about to leave and go to admonish the soldiers and stabilize the morale of the army. He hurriedly approached after the footsteps.

"Report!" A spy rushed in, "Report to the general that the hundreds of soldiers from Beihu who were crossing the river today were all assassinated when they passed by Mingxue River when they returned!"

"What?" General Wang's expression changed, "Assassination?" After the words fell, he looked at Ye Ying subconsciously.

Ye Ying shook his head slightly: "It was not what I arranged."

"The tongues of several of them were cut off!" the spy continued.

Ye Ying frowned: "Okay, I understand. I don't need to care about the bodies of the Beihu people. I will go and investigate and report it if I have any letter."

"Yes." The spy turned around and left in a hurry.

General Wang looked a little surprised: "Who did it?"

Ye Ying shook his head: "I don't know, but I think it's not an enemy. This will have no effect on our side, but it can shock Beihu. There is no need to worry too much."

General Wang left, Ye Ying took the book back to the room, his face slightly calmed: "Uncle Mute!"

The mute slave jumped in through the open rear window, bowed slightly, and saluted Ye Ying.

"You made it?" Ye Ying said with certainty.

The mute slave did not deny it and nodded.

"Uncle Ya, if you act like this again and act impulsively, go back to Xixia!" Ye Ying frowned.

The mute slave waved his hands repeatedly, walked to the table, picked up the pen, wrote a line of words, and raised it to Ye Ying: "They scolded you, and they even said that the master was a wild man!"

The other mute slaves didn't care. But the Northern Hu barbarians shouted and humiliated Ye Ying in public, and even said that Baili Su was Ye Ying's wild man? Is it unbearable! Looking for death! Cut your tongue! Let them go to the underworld and can't even speak!

Ye Ying was speechless, shook her head and sighed: "It's fine this time, I don't have to pay attention to it next time."

The mute nodded, but his eyes showed that he would not spare those people lightly next time. He did not care whether Nan Chu won the battle or not, but could not tolerate someone bullying Ye Ying, even if he had ulterior motives, he would not be able to yell and scold him!

Lord Pu Xue City will be Gui Peng, the son of Gui Hao.

Gui Hao's lifelong military service was finally trapped in Ye Ling's hands. Not only did he lose all his reputation, but he also became a waste.

Gui Peng ordered people to provoke for several days, but Chongming City never responded. There was some movement on that day, and all the Beihu soldiers crossing the river were dead.

The Northern Hu army was still angry because Ye Ling was deceived to ten cities last year and wanted to fight back. Gui Peng did not order troops, but only sent people to continue provoking them. This time something happened.

The generals of Beihu all came to find Gui Peng, and they just wanted to hit him!

Gui Peng's plan was to lure the enemy across the river, which would be very beneficial to them and his chances of victory would be much greater. But now, Ye Ying was not trapped, and the Northern Hu people could no longer hold back. Gui Peng was temporarily suppressing it, but it would not take long.

The war is about to break out.

In the evening, Song Qingyu came to find Ye Ying, who was eating noodles.

"Is there something wrong?" Ye Ying asked with a faint expression.

Song Qingyu shook his head and raised the wine pot in his hand: "It's okay. I asked for a good wine from Uncle Wang. Do you want to drink it?"

Ye Ying nodded: "Sit down."

Song Qingyu poured wine and handed Ye Ying a cup. Ye Ying drank it all. The spicy wine entered his throat and the aftertaste was mellow.

"Today is my little sister's birthday, I'm sixteen years old." Ye Ying put down the wine glass, and a soft light flashed in her eyes.

Song Qingyu knew.

Before Ye Sheng could get into trouble and Ye Ling was a little girl, Ye Sheng would give birth to Ye Ling on this day every year. As a senior brother, Yun Yao would be called to eat birthday noodles together, and he also prepared a birthday gift for Ye Ling.

Song Qingyu raised his glass but did not drink it, and his expression was slightly sad: "Two years ago today, I was seriously injured when I was attacked and became a living dead."

On the eighth day of the ninth lunar month, this day also has a different meaning for Song Qingyu, not just Ye Ling's birthday.

Two years ago today, Song Qingyu and Yun Yao died at the same time. Yun Yao's soul was reborn with Song Qingyu's body and became the current Song Qingyu.

On the same day, Yun Yao, who was dying, asked Nangong Heng to take care of his family for a year. Nangong Heng pretended to be Yun Yao, retreated to Beihu and was awarded the title of King of War.

Last year, Ye Ling and the hairpin married Yun Yao, who was pretending to be Nangong Heng. That night, Nangong Heng pretended to die and escaped, and Ye Ling became a widow.

At this moment, Song Qingyu remembered the past, as if he had been a different life. And his life was really a different life.

Ye Ying thought she was not familiar with Song Qingyu.

Song Qingyu knew that this was his junior sister, but he didn't dare to recognize her.

The two of them didn't talk anymore, just drank silently, immersed themselves in their thoughts.

After drinking all the wine, Song Qingyu stood up and said goodbye.

Back at the residence next door, Song Qingyu, who had already eaten, asked someone to cook another bowl of noodles and bring them over.

Ye Ling's smiling face appeared in Song Qingyu's mind and murmured: "Little junior sister, happy birthday."

Chu Jingjing Palace.

As night fell, heavy rain did not stop, lights were lit on the second floor of Wuhua Pavilion.

Ye Ling was still the same, lying on the bed and was still asleep.

Nangong Heng was bathing, his ink hair drooping his shoulders, his strong long arms were placed on the bathtub, squinting his eyes slightly, and the heat was filled with mist. He was recalling the beauty of laughter and fighting since he met Ye Ling this year.

The water was almost cold, and Nangong Heng stood up from the bathtub, and the water droplets slid down his chest. He straddled his long legs, walked out of the bathtub naked, and took the bath towel from the back of the chair next to him.
