Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

Not to mention earning that much money, even if she didn't, Li Mengyue would not let herself down.

What's more, she is now in the late stage of pregnancy and has four babies, so she must be careful, otherwise it will be too late to regret.

The teleportation function is worthy of the word teleportation. Li Mengyue arrived at the villa in the blink of an eye.

In addition, the system reported Xie Ruiyuan's location to her, so Li Mengyue did not take any detours and went straight to the study.

When Xie Ruiyuan got up in the morning, someone brought him an urgent report that the garrison on the northern border had encountered a landslide.

Fortunately, it was daytime and the soldiers were on training. As soon as something went wrong, Xie Qichen arranged for the soldiers to evacuate. In the end, there were no casualties among the soldiers, but the barracks were directly covered by heavy snow.

The 300,000-strong army suddenly had no place to live, not to mention food and other supplies, all of which were buried under the snow.

He originally thought that with the food, cotton-padded clothes, honeycomb coal, and earthen kangs that Li Mengyue had provided, the troops stationed in the north would have a much better life this year. They would no longer have to endure hunger, nor would they have to worry about the weather being too cold and getting frostbite on their bodies, nor would they have to rest poorly at night.

But what he didn't expect was that after solving the material problem, an avalanche unexpectedly occurred.

In fact, this is understandable. After all, there has been heavy snow on the northern border for a whole month. Judging from the heavy snow in Qingshan Prefecture, you can know how heavy the snow is in the north, and he believes that it will only be heavier than that in Qingshan Prefecture, not smaller.

With such a heavy snowstorm, the amount of snow accumulated within a month cannot be underestimated.

The key point is that in order to conceal their presence, the garrison location chosen by these 300,000 troops is a place surrounded by mountains on three sides.

The reason why he chose that place was because of its geographical advantage of being easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, the snow was too heavy and an avalanche occurred.

However, he also learned from the secret report that no soldiers were injured or killed, which made him feel fortunate. But this meant that he had to transport supplies to the north again.

Not to mention that he cannot raise so much food and grass now. Even if he does, it is impossible to transport it to the north in a short time.

According to past transportation experience, it would take at least one month to transport from the capital, and it would probably take one and a half months to transport from Qingshan Prefecture to the north. Moreover, the entire journey would have to be accelerated, and there could not be any accidents, and there would not be enough rest time.

Besides, some of the food and fodder will be consumed in the process of transporting it. After all, both the people involved and the horses need to eat and drink, so the amount of food and fodder consumed will not be a small amount.

Even if the food and grass were successfully transported to the north, more than a month had passed. How could an army of 300,000 survive without food or water?

The key point is that the secret report he has in his hand now was delivered to him by Xie Qichen at the first opportunity after the incident happened, with someone rushing on horseback for 800 miles. More than a dozen horses died on the way.

In other words, more than half a month had passed since the incident at the northern border military camp. He really couldn't imagine how the soldiers had held on for more than half a month, or perhaps they had already given up and the garrison no longer existed.

This is not the worst. Once the Beimo Royal Court learns that something has happened to the northern garrison, it will definitely send troops directly to capture Beiling City.

Beiling City, as the first city on the northern border, blocked the cavalry of Beimo. As long as Beimo sent troops, Beiling City would surely fall in the absence of garrisons.

At that time, the cavalry of the Northern Desert will continue to advance into the inland hinterland. The infantry of the Great Zhou will be no match for the cavalry, so the cavalry of the Northern Desert will be invincible and will attack the capital directly.

Even if he was good at deploying troops, without a single soldier under his command, he could not stop the Northern Desert Cavalry from killing indiscriminately and bringing devastating disaster to countless civilians.

Even if his personal guards and the people from the Hades' Palace could fight one against a hundred, they would not be able to kill all the Northern Desert Cavalry, and the country's destruction was inevitable.

This is not what he wants to see. He wants the people of the Great Zhou to have enough food and clothing and live and work in peace and contentment under his protection.

Considering the urgency of the matter, Xie Ruiyuan didn't want to delay for a moment.

"Come here, prepare the horses."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Xie Ruiyuan, where are you going?"

The sudden voice startled Xie Ruiyuan. Not to mention his great martial arts skills, he also had secret guards. It was impossible for the newcomer to enter his study.

But now the voice that appeared out of nowhere made his vigilance reach its peak, but he relaxed again in an instant because he was so familiar with the speaker's voice.

"Ayue, Ayue, you are here."

Xie Ruiyuan was just worried that he wouldn't be able to meet Li Mengyue before leaving, but who knew that he would see his beloved the next moment.

But when he was about to explain to Li Mengyue, his face turned ugly.

"Nonsense, it's snowing so heavily, how can you just come here casually?"

"What do you mean? The child hasn't even been born yet and you've already started to have second thoughts. I don't even have the freedom to come to the villa anymore."

"Ayue, you know that's not what I meant."

"I'm not a worm in your stomach, how can I know so much?"

When Xie Ruiyuan heard this, he knew that Li Mengyue was angry. While continuing to apologize to Li Mengyue, he helped Li Mengyue sit on the chair.

After Li Mengyue sat down, Xie Ruiyuan saw Li Mengyue's expression and knew that the other party was joking with him.

So he asked seriously, "Where is Qing Ning? How could I let you go out in this weather? And Canren, I sent them to your side to protect your safety. Now that they are nowhere to be seen, it seems I have to replace them."

"Xie Ruiyuan, if you replace the person, I will never let you go."

"But they can't even do their most basic duties. What's the point of keeping them? If you really don't want to, how about I send more people?"

Hearing that Xie Ruiyuan was going to send someone to her, Li Mengyue shuddered all over. Thinking of what Xie Ruiyuan did when Canren came to protect him, she was too tired to complain.

You should know that in order to protect her safety, Xie Ruiyuan arranged more than 30 people to protect her, both openly and secretly.

With so many people focusing all their attention on her, she felt suffocated.

Later, she found Xie Ruiyuan and strongly demanded that he withdraw his men. Xie Ruiyuan then reluctantly withdrew his men, leaving only a broken blade.

She didn't want to live the suffocating life she had before. It would be enough to have Canren protecting her in secret, and Qingning would take care of her daily diet and daily life.

"No, I'm very satisfied with the two of them, don't add any more."

Seeing that Li Mengyue was indeed very resistant, Xie Ruiyuan stopped mentioning the matter, but he still kept a grudge against Canren and Qingning in his heart.

Poor Canren and Qingning, they were obviously working diligently and did not dare to slack off for even a moment, but because of Li Mengyue's willfulness, they appeared on Xie Ruiyuan's blacklist and had to be punished.

Even though Qing Ning had been driven out by Xie Ruiyuan, she could not deny that she was Xie Ruiyuan's subordinate in the past.

Xie Ruiyuan said he would punish her, and she would definitely not be able to escape.
