The snow in the north, only one heavy snow, is enough to cover the northern land with a thick and soft white robe that is thousands of miles wide.
The towns are better, and the village forts are like being in the wilderness, with birds and people disappearing, and there is a depression.
The wind was howling, blowing through the streets and alleys of Kaiyuan Castle, blowing down the snow on the eaves, snow foam flying all over the sky, and the occasional passer-by shrunk their necks and hurried by.
Since the beginning of winter, there have been several good snowfalls, for the farmers who are digging in the field, this is a good thing for the snow trillion year, the north is known as "winter snow is the granary, spring snow is not as good as chaff" saying.
But it is conceivable that for the families who depend on animal husbandry for a living, it is a disaster.
They even live in felt tents and shacks, and they can drive the cattle into warm houses, but if the livestock freeze too much, it will not be easy.
However, after the first two wars, many small-scale clean-up campaigns have formed a separation zone of hundreds of kilometers around the border village in northern Liaoning, which is already a no-man's land.
Now that it is snowing so much, even if those mad nomadic tribes want to take risks, they will not be able to trek through the heavy snow without horses and legs and rob again.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the officers and men of the guard station frequently dispatched to block and attack the green forest bandits in their defense area nearby, and it was impossible to completely eliminate them, but with the full cooperation of Xu Tai, Liang Haoyao, and other people who were familiar with the green forest bandits everywhere, they were wiped out, and the vitality of the Liaodong bandits was greatly damaged, and it was difficult to cause great harm.
Early in the morning, the officers and men of the Liaohai Zhongwei and Sanwanwei guards stationed in Kaiyuan City assembled and set out to enter the wasteland to start winter training.
The trumpets sounded, the horses neighed, the armor was sonorous, and the flags were flying; after a great deal of reduction, only about half of the officers and men of the guards were now left, and although the number of soldiers had been sharply reduced, all of them were elite soldiers, and their morale, military spirit, military discipline, and military law, as well as their overall combat effectiveness had been greatly improved.
In the backyard of the Governor's Palace, the snow is like a plain, a pine is covered with snow, like a huge umbrella cover, Xia Xun has slightly bent legs, squatting on the horse, and is standing under the tree.
On such a cold day, he was wearing only a pair of calf nose pants and a strong muscle, letting the cold wind like a small knife whistling around him, still with his tongue against the roof of his mouth, his eyes slightly closed, and he stood there motionless.
His body seemed to be cast in iron, and his breathing seemed to have stopped.
Practicing muscles and bones outside, practicing a breath inside, Xia Xun from the outside to the inside, wind and rain hard training, so that his internal and external martial arts have reached a higher realm, his spirit and spirit, even his martial arts, have developed by leaps and bounds.
Most of the time, he just quietly tied his horse steps, occasionally practiced the knife technique, and also stroked the knife and pondered for a long time before slowly slashing a knife, which was extremely slow, as if careless, but only a few knives down, more tired than he practiced the knife for two hours.
In his early thirties, it is a good time for a man's mind, physical strength, and spirit to reach the peak state, Xia Xun is now able to use the sword of Luo Kedi's original power of heaven, but he can't do it like Luo Kedi's weightlifting and ease.
Finally, Xia Xun let out a long breath and slowly retracted his posture, and the two personal soldiers who were waiting not far away immediately sent him, one put a cotton robe on him, and the other handed him a hat.
After the Sakura incident, Xia Xun no longer stopped receiving women from various departments.
Sometimes, if you don't accept gifts, you will offend people, but everyone understands Sakura's matter, and only said that this prince cherishes his life, for fear of mixing in with a female assassin again, so he will be as good as a stream, and will no longer give women to entertain the governor.
There were only two Ross girls left in Xia Xun's mansion, and these two girls were also promised to the two generals in the army through his peace.
It's not Xia Xun's hypocrisy, it's been ten years since he came to this world, he has become famous, married a wife and had children, he has completely integrated into this world, and he is no longer the police academy student who dreamed of being a civil servant one day, and now he is the grandfather of the Ming Dynasty, the husband of his wife, and the loving father of his daughter Ten years of life and death have changed a lot of things, even if an ordinary person lives in a strange place for ten years, he will gradually forget many things, knowledge, experience, experience, obsession, interest and even himself.
Just like do you remember your life ten years ago, maybe there is only a vague image in your mind, but let you go back to it, how many details can you remember, and you may still live according to the pattern of ten years ago today Xia Xun is like this now, living in the present, he will also become the present, and all aspects of his life are gradually changing, including his ideology.
This era is completely a man's world, a successful man's world, women are one of the most common concoctions at banquets and pillows.
But they are not Qinglou women, once they have touched their virgin bodies, they have to be raised at home, a pair of blonde and blue-eyed Yanmar, it is really not a matter to keep them at home, Xia Xun can hardly imagine what it will be like to let them get along with several of his wives and concubines.
Moreover, whether it is customs and habits, they are different from each other, he is no longer a hairy young man in his early twenties, for women, not only requires beauty in appearance, but also needs spiritual comfort and communication, and these two Ross women can't even understand Chinese, so they can't taste this freshness, and helping them find a home that can be pinned on for life is also a piece of heart to get along.
The winter is cold, he has to practice, and his physical energy consumption is large, and the dishes in the Northeast are just right for his age and today's environment.
Large pots of steamed buns, large pieces of venison, in short, whether it is a staple food or a dish, each one embodies a big character.
Xia Xun came back from outside, bathed in hot water, devoured his meal, washed up, changed into a robe, and went out of the room, he was going to walk around the city to see if any houses had collapsed due to heavy snow.
He has now faded out of the military and political circles in Liaodong, at least on the surface, although Zhang Jun and Wan Shiyu, Zhang Xitong, Mo Ke and other officials in charge of the military, politics, education, justice and other systems still report to him in detail, but he mostly just listens, and this kind of report has always remained at the dark level, and he needs these people who he has supported to really stand up and stand alone.
So he's seeing more and doing less now.
Xia Xun wore a sable fur hat and a sea dragon skin robe, and walked out leisurely.
The material of this robe is the finest sea dragon skin, which looks silvery-white from a distance, but when you look closer, it is a shiny black fur, which is very expensive.
Xia Xun is long and jade, handsome and extraordinary, and has naturally developed a kind of majesty after being in a high position for many years, and with such a robe, it adds a bit of grace and temperament.
Such a character is certainly unique in Liaodong, where the folk customs are rough, even when he arrives in Jinling, there are few nobles who can compare.
"Ministry, someone is here."
The guards were assembling, Xia Xun had not yet gone out, and a personal soldier reported to him, Xia Xun said "oh", and looked at it in a flash, and saw a man wearing a sheepskin jacket, sheepskin pants, felt boots and leggings, and a man wearing a dogskin hood was striding towards him, his eyelids and eyebrows were covered with a towel on his face, and the frost condensed by the breath was white, like Santa Claus.
The corners of Xia Xun's mouth couldn't help but smile: "Xu Jiang, it's you, it's snowy and cold, the road is not easy to walk."
The person who came was Xu Jiang Xu Xiaoqi who he had collected under the door in Daning, Xu Jiang had been following him for many years, and now he has become a member of his secret spy team, Xu Jiang hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Xu Jiang greeted the Guogong" and then replied with a smile: "It's still done, when I went out of the customs, I still felt that I wanted to rush to the Guogong, and I didn't expect that the dog climbed the plow and ran faster than the horse, and this road was like flying." ” Xia Xun said with a smile: "The dog can't carry a large team of people and horses by climbing the plow, but it is very fast to send three or five messengers."
You're from the gate, but what's the matter?"
Xu Jiang said: "Guogong doesn't have to worry, there is nothing to worry about in the customs, just because Guogong has been away from Jinling for a long time, and he is here to report on some things that need you to decide, and the other is to bring you a letter to Guogong." ” Xu Jiang said and untied his leather robe, took out a tightly tied letter from his inner pocket and presented it to Xia Xun with both hands, Xia Xun did not go back to the study, and immediately opened the letter It seemed that at first the corners of his lips were just a faint smile, but his eyes swept down line by line, and when he saw the end, he seemed to be stunned, stared at it with wide eyes and looked at it twice, and suddenly laughed loudly and jumped suddenly.
Xu Jiang was stunned, followed by Xia Xun and laughed a few times, and walked forward excitedly, all the way, all the way to the dance, the excitement was irrepressible, Xu Jiang touched the back of his head, puzzled, I really couldn't think of what was written in the letter, Xia Xun was so happy.
"Budo" Ming'er was overjoyed and surprised to hear the good news, Xia Xun couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ran out of the second door dancing, the mood of joy had just calmed down, and there was a shout in front, Xia Xun looked at it, but it was Ding Yu, and there was a girl next to him, both of them were dressed in winter fur, the mysterious one was like iron, and the white one was like snow, reflecting the handsome man and woman, quite eye-catching, carefully looking, this handsome girl is still a little familiar.
Ding Yu hurriedly greeted him and said curiously: "Ministry, what are you doing here?"
"Oh" Xia Xun said calmly: "Oh, this is a fitness and health practice, similar to the Five Birds Opera."

Hmm, didn't you lead the team to train the troops, why did you get here?"
he said, quietly tucking the letter into his sleeve.
"I was supposed to go, but she came and told me."
Ding Yu glanced at the girl with an embarrassed face, suddenly bent his knees, knelt in front of Xia Xun, hugged his thighs and begged: "Ding Yu is in trouble, the ministry must save me" To be continued:
