Xiaocao and his group had more than 100,000 people, so naturally they sent a message to the Dingbei Army early on.
However, when they arrived at North City, they were greeted by Mu Bei's deputy general, who was naturally familiar with Xiao Cao.
Xiaocao was deeply respected by the entire Dingbei Army, but the previous message did not mention Xiaocao, only saying that there were hundreds of thousands of reinforcements. When they suddenly saw Xiaocao, they were very surprised and extremely excited. It took them a while to think of Xiaocao's current identity. "Your humble general pays his respects to the princess." He was extremely respectful. As for the others, there were so many of them that he ignored them all.
"No need to be polite, General."
"It is a great blessing for Northern Frontier that the princess has come. But why didn't the princess mention it in the previous message? We should have prepared a place for her to stay in advance." There are many more doctors in Northern Frontier now than before, but in terms of prestige, no one can compare with Xiaocao. Even if she cannot save too many people alone, her presence is, to a certain extent, like another Mu Bei, like a stabilizing force. Therefore, the deputy general was really excited, but was afraid of neglecting Xiaocao.
"In the current situation, there is no need to care about these things. I have cleaned up the place and I don't have time to live there. Are we still fighting today?"
"Liuqi is desperate now, and the frequency of attacks is very high. The prince has not returned to the North City for nearly ten days."
This also indirectly explains why he was the only general who led people out to greet them.
Xiaocao nodded without saying anything more.
Unlike the previous life, there is actually no clear boundary between the two countries. The front line of the battle with Liuqi is dozens of miles long. Beicheng is the last bottom line, extending to both sides. Each place is heavily guarded. During non-war periods, the Dingbei Army patrols forward. Of course, the rear is also heavily defended, and patrolling soldiers can often be seen. Before this line, the people of Qi Dynasty had evacuated many years ago, so even if there were villages before, they are now vacant.
In the past, a small group of cavalry from Liuqi broke through from other places and rushed into the rear of Beicheng to plunder, but this situation has not happened for many years. Beicheng and Jiangcheng naturally did not dare to come, after all, it was impossible for them to even break through the city gate.
It was quite cold in North City at the moment. Xiaocao was dressed in furry clothes, but she had a good physique and was not wrapped up like a ball. In comparison, Wei Tingyu was dressed thicker. Moreover, he brought the wheelchair he used before, added carbon inside the seat, and covered himself with a blanket so that he was warm all over. This was Xiaocao's request.
However, this deputy general had glared at Wei Tingyu many times, and his dislike for Wei Tingyu was clearly written on his face. He had also sent Mu Bei back, but the time he stayed was not long. However, at that time, there were signs that he wanted to marry Xiaocao as the Princess of Dingbei County. Xiaocao was Mu Bei's savior, so naturally they were willing to do so, but they were intercepted in the end!
Although they didn't know the specific reasons, in the eyes of these people, Wei Tingyu was a million times inferior to their prince. This kid had the appearance of a pretty boy and looked weak. It was bad enough that he couldn't take care of the princess when he came to the Northern Frontier. Instead, it was a good thing that the princess came to take care of him, fearing that he would be unwell. The deputy general almost vomited when he saw this.
If the princess was their queen, the entire Dingbei Army would hold her in the palm of their hands.
The deputy general didn't think Xiaocao had a bad vision, but thought that the pretty boy surnamed Wei had deceived her with sweet words.
Princess Anguo was devoted to studying medicine and had a simple mind, so she was easily deceived.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and naturally, he disliked Wei Tingyu more and more, especially when he thought about how he had tried every means to get information from the people below about the trouble that had occurred in the matter of their prince's successor princess. If it hadn't been for this kid intercepting him, perhaps their prince would have married the princess long ago, and maybe even had a little prince.
Along the way, the gaze was so strong that it was impossible for Prince Wei to pretend not to notice it. The two of them had no intersection before, and it was not difficult to guess why the deputy general treated him like this. However, because of this, he just glanced at the other party lightly and ignored him completely. Because of this, he almost made the other party explode.
The general had a bad temper to begin with, but because Xiaocao was present, the deputy general tried his best to control his temper. You have to know that when he glared at Wei Tingyu, he did it behind Xiaocao's back.
After entering North City, they still settled in the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion, the same courtyard where Xiaocao and the others had lived before. However, at that time the "owner" of the house was Pingjin Hou, and now it is Mu Bei, although Pingjin Hou still lived there when he was in North City.
The people in the house seemed to have approved of Mu Bei, which made Prince Wei a little unhappy.
According to Xiaocao's idea, they should go to the hospital immediately. This time, Wei Tingyu and the deputy general are on the same side. They are exhausted from the long journey and need to rest for half a day.
After much persuasion, Xiaocao finally agreed. Even so, after tidying up a bit, he also asked someone to find out about the situation over there.
The deputy general had already sent someone to inform Mu Bei, taking this opportunity to bring the prince back to have some rest. Forget about the others, since the princess is here, the prince will definitely come back. It's perfect.
The fact was just as the deputy general had expected. In the afternoon, Mu Bei and his men came back at full speed. There were several generals who came back with them, and among the soldiers there was Fan Wuguo.
Even though he knew Xiaocao didn't come for him, Mu Bei couldn't help but feel excited.
Compared to Mu Bei who seemed timid, Fan Wuguo was different. He rushed directly to Xiaocao and asked, "Sister, why are you here?"
"You can come, but I can't?"
"No, it's just that the emperor and your family let you come here, which is a bit unexpected, and..." Fan Wuguo's eyes fell on Wei Tingyu, and he didn't continue to use the wheelchair at this moment, "It's like boiled chicken, don't fall ill and become a burden."
Many people agreed with Fan Wuguo's words, but they still had to maintain their image in front of Xiaocao, so they did not agree with him, but their eyes were still bright.
Xiao Cao reached out and patted Fan Wuguo, "What are you talking about?"
Fan Wuguo begged for mercy with a playful smile, "Sister, I was wrong, I was wrong."
