Chapter 128 She just misses him a little bit

"What's wrong?"

Lei Yu immediately turned his head and looked north along Shang Ruyi's line of sight. He saw nothing but vastness on the grassland and nothing on the distant horizon, which almost merged with the gray sky.

She looked back at Shang Ruyi: "There's nothing."

"..."

"What did you see?"

Shang Ruyi frowned, stretched out his hand to rub his eyes and looked for a while, then murmured: "I seemed to have seen a few people just now."

"people?"

Lei Yu turned around to look again, only to see a few pieces of grass blown by the wind, whistling and flying into the sky. The grassland was still vast and there was no trace of anyone.

Lei Yu said: "You are wrong."

"..."

"The Turkic Yazhang is hundreds of miles away from here. They shouldn't send people here so quickly. Besides, if they really have troops coming, our people must have discovered it long ago."

Hearing what she said, Shang Ruyi thought about it and said with a smile, "Maybe I'm dazzled."

Continuing along the way, they indeed met no one. Until the evening, the destination they finally arrived at was indeed the vast flat land with the sweet water well in Shang Ruyi's memory. It was even the place built during the last northern inspection tour.

The iron nails and wooden stakes left behind when the huge tent was built are still there.

So, we set up a tent on the spot and settled down soon.

At this time, there were already a lot of voices complaining around. It would be fine if it was just the officials, but this time the emperor also brought the family members of some officials with him on his tour. Most ladies and ladies from aristocratic families have never lived in such a harsh place.

However, the ground is uneven, and rats are often infested. There are no houses with carved pillars, and only simple tents can provide shelter from the wind and rain. Especially, winter comes earlier on the grasslands than in the Central Plains. At night, even the bed is covered without a brazier.

It's cold.

It wasn't until late at night that the complaints around him gradually subsided.

However, although the voices of complaints subsided, Shang Ruyi still couldn't sleep. Along the way, he had too many things to worry about. Even if he was stationed now, I'm afraid trouble is still to come.

After all, Yu Wenye has not arrived yet.

I wonder where he is now? Is he with Princess Crescent Moon?

What are the two of them doing at this moment?

Just thinking about it made her chest feel more and more stuffy, so she simply got up and got dressed, ready to go out and take a breath.

But just when she opened the tent, she saw Tu Sheer and Mu Xian sitting around the fire in front of the tent, the two of them muttering something - along the way, they also became familiar with each other.

.

Just listen to Tu Sheer complaining: "Where did your young master go? When will he come?"

Mu Xian smiled and said: "What do you mean by our young master? Isn't he your uncle?"

Tusheer pouted: "Whose uncle would leave his wife behind? You can't even see her!"

"..."

Mu Xian seemed to be a little unreasonable, and he turned his eyes away in a sly manner, just in time to see Shang Ruyi standing at the door of the tent, and said hurriedly: "Young Madam, why are you up?"

Tu Sheer also rushed forward and said, "Miss, what do you want?"

Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "I can't sleep, so I came out for a walk."

Tusheer said: "It's so cold, what's the point of walking? You'd better go back to the tent and sleep quickly, so as not to catch a cold."

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Mu, who was standing aside, laughed and said: "I understand. Did the young lady think of the days when she went to the grassland before, couldn't sleep, and wanted to come out and visit her old place again?"

Shang Ruyi glanced at Tu Sheer again: "Look, you've been with me for so long for nothing."

Tusheer ignored her taunts and hurriedly ran into the tent, took out a blanket and put it on her, saying: "It's windy here, be careful of catching a cold."

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but laugh.

She obediently wrapped her blanket tightly and sat next to the fire. The heat of the flames made her somewhat cold mood finally feel a little warm. She took a deep breath and looked up again. In fact, it was so late and the scenery was early.

It's gone, but the dazzling galaxy above our heads is still the same as it was more than ten years ago, as if the time that passed by was just a blink.

Mu Xian said: "Young madam, is this place the same as before?"

Shang Ruyi said: "What can be different?"

"..."

"What's different is that it's always just people."

Seeing her cold eyes even though she was looking at the flames, Tusheer said softly: "Miss, do you miss Mr. Shang? Don't be too sad."

Shang Ruyi laughed bitterly in his heart.

It has been so many years since her father passed away. The overwhelming grief that almost overwhelmed her at first has long since subsided.

She just missed him a little.

Feeling that his emotions were contagious and making everyone around him feel depressed, Shang Ruyi stood up with a smile and said, "Okay, I'll go for a walk over there. You can go do whatever you need to do."

Tu Sheer immediately said: "I will accompany you."

Shang Ruyi said: "I want to walk alone. Don't follow me. Go to bed early."

"But--"

Tushe'er was still hesitant, so Mu Xian also advised: "Madam, it's getting so late, it's better to let the younger one accompany you, so as not to be in danger."

Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "With such a big camp, and there are guards patrolling nearby, there is no danger. I want to be alone, so don't follow me."

After hearing what she said, the two of them couldn't say anything else. Tusheer could only tell her to be careful again and again, and then let Shang Ruyi leave the camp alone.

As soon as I walked out, I felt a gust of cold wind blowing, almost blowing away the blanket on my body.

Shang Ruyi hurriedly crossed his arms with both hands and wrapped the blanket tightly.

Although it was cold, the cold wind made her head clearer than before. Stepping on the dead grass on the ground, accompanied by rustling sounds along the way, she unknowingly reached the edge of the camp, which had not yet had time to repair.

On the fence, only a few thick flagpoles stood on the ground, and the flags rustled in the low wind.

Shang Ruyi slowly walked to a flagpole and leaned against it. When he looked back, countless bonfires in the camp were still burning, dyeing the vast sky above his head orange-red.

This reminded her of how she often saw situations like this when she lived in Turkic Yazhang when she was a child.

At that time, her father would even take her to attend Turkic people's evening drinking parties. It was called a drinking party, but there were no rules. It was just a group of people carrying wine jars, drinking heavily, and singing loudly.

The singing sound even floated further than the firelight.

Unknowingly, the songs in her memory flowed out of her mouth. She sang softly, as if she had returned to that time again.

But just as she was singing to herself, there was a sudden sound of footsteps next to her.

Shang Ruyi immediately shut his mouth.

"who?"
