Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter

Chapter 502: Chapter 501: Xue Rufeng, Beiqi’s Fierce Battle in North and South_1

The head of the Wang family was overwhelmed by fear and contracted a cold, from which he never recovered.

Wang Ronglin assumed the role of family head amidst the crisis.

Xue Rufeng hastily went to the capital of the Nanqi Kingdom and aided the young emperor to implement personal rule using the power of the Thousand-Mechanism Pavilion.

Moreover, he disguised himself and assumed the role of a distant relative of the Empress Dowager, boldly becoming an advisor to the young emperor, helping him manage major state affairs.

The young emperor successfully gained the recognition of the officials, reclaimed his rightful power, and secured his throne.

The situation between the North and South Qi changed abruptly. The once weak and docile Southern Qi court suddenly stood firm, refusing to compromise any further with the North Qi.

The King of Beiqi, Xia Houchun, was so furious that he dispatched his heavy-armored troops to attack the South Qi.

The soldiers of Nanqi vowed to resist to death, standing solid against the fierce first wave of attack from the North Qi at the cost of their own blood.

Xue Rufeng sent a letter via carrier pigeon, requesting reinforcement from the Lin family’s army.

The Lin family’s military leaders received the secret report and quickly dispatched the border defense troops from the northeast battle lines to provide support. They attacked from both sides, severely hitting the Beiqi’s heavy-armored troops.

The King of Beiqi, Xia Houchun, finally calmed down after this battle, ordered the retreat of his troops, and was no longer as arrogant as before.

The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, and the young men who were undergoing external training were unaware. Only Lin Qingluo, through messages sent by birds, had a rough understanding of the intensity of the battle.

The young men traveled along the border to the north, and then turned to the west. After more than half a month, they finally arrived at the border where Beiming and Fengqi were connected, the Northern Territory Mountains.

Beidi was bitterly cold. Even during the warm spring seasons in the Qilian Mountains, the Northern Territory Mountains were still covered in white snow. Deep snow filled the continuous mountains.

The mountain roads were rough, and it was slippery in the snow which made it difficult for the horses to walk.

The Lin family’s brothers took the initiative to dismount and, treading in knee-deep snow, led the horses that the Little Prince and Lin Qingluo were upon along the mountain stream, advancing with difficulty.

Wang Meng and Mo Canglan also dismounted from their horses to help Shitou and Feng Yi guide the horses.

Shitou, being light-weight, stubbornly remained on his horse, refusing to come down.

Feng Yi, who had grown up in the south, was not accustomed to the cold of the North. He was wrapped up like a dumpling and walking was troublesome.

Fortunately, the horses that the two young men rode were carefully trained warhorses from the Lin’s Residence, which were able to move stably even on the rugged mountain roads.

“The Northern Territory Mountains are high and perilous. They seem even steeper and more difficult than the Qilian Mountains. No wonder my second brother’s letter hasn’t been delivered for several months. The government officer who delivered the letters, I guess, would hardly make a trip once a year or half a year.”

Lin Jinlong, holding the reins of a horse in one hand and carefully walking in the snow in front of the group, broke the trail.

“Fifth Brother, be careful. It seems there’s a hollow ahead. Pay attention to your feet. Don’t fall off.”

Lin Qingluo, riding on Lightning, widened her eyes to help her brother watch the road.

She actually enjoyed playing in the snow quite much and didn’t need special care.

However, since her brothers insisted on doing so, she had to go along with them, sitting obediently on the horse, enjoying their care.

“Alright.”

Lin Jinlong looked ahead carefully, his steps becoming even slower.

“Qingluo, wrap your cloak well. The wind in the north is bone-chilling. Be careful not to catch a cold.”

Lin Jinyun led Yellow Jujube and his own horse, following behind. While keeping an eye on the Little Prince, he was always alert to his sister. Seeing her with her cloak open and billowing in the wind, he furrowed his brows and softly reminded.

“Okay, Fourth Brother, I know. I will wrap it up right away.”

Lin Qingluo turned her head and responded with a sweet smile to her brother.

The knot in Lin Jinyun’s heart instantly loosened, as if there was a small furnace in his arms, warm and comfortable.
