My bad father married a princess, my mother divorced me, and I became the group's favorite

"Xiaoxiao, don't tire yourself out."

Liu Yunniang said softly.

Ye Xiaoxiao raised her head and showed a bright smile.

"Mom, I'm not tired. I want to prepare some more things so that next time we encounter danger, we won't be so passive."

Liu Yunniang gently stroked Ye Xiaoxiao's hair, her eyes full of love.

"Okay, but you should also take a rest and don't tire yourself out."

Ye Xiaoxiao nodded and continued to organize the items in the space.

This experience made her discover the advantages of Yuezhu and Yuemei. Their archery skills were actually quite good, but they just lacked practice in their daily lives.

It seems that the hidden arrows prepared for them before may need to be improved.

While Ye Xiaoxiao was sorting out the items in the space, she was thinking about how to improve the sleeve arrows.

She recalled the performance of the hidden arrows in the last battle. Although it played a certain role at the critical moment, it also exposed some problems.

For example, the range is not far enough, the power is not strong enough, etc.

She decided to start with the structure of the sleeve arrow and made improvements to its launch device, which would increase its launch speed and range.

Then, Ye Xiaoxiao considered how to increase the power of the sleeve arrow.

She thought of adding some poison to the hidden arrow.

However, there are certain risks in doing so, as it would be bad if you accidentally hurt your own people.

After some thought, Ye Xiaoxiao decided to put medicine on the sleeve arrow. The medicine was just milder and could make the enemy lose their combat effectiveness instantly, but it would not kill them immediately. Even if they were injured by mistake, Yuemei and Yuezhu could use the antidote to rescue them in time.

In the future, I can help them make adjustments based on their situations.

In the process of improving the sleeve arrows, Ye Xiaoxiao did not forget to let Yuezhu and Yuemei participate.

She told them her ideas and asked them to give their opinions and suggestions. Yuezhu and Yuemei were very excited after hearing Ye Xiaoxiao's plan.

The two had never imagined that one day they would be able to fight the enemy together with the guards of the general's mansion. This was something they had never dared to imagine before.

The two men no longer had the fear they felt that night in their hearts. Seeing that the young lady had specially set up weapons for them, they became full of energy.

Outside the inn, Mo Feng took his guards to investigate the news personally. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he felt relieved.

Everyone was very tired after traveling for the past few days, so they took this opportunity to rest and prepare some new dry food.

After resting in the town for a day and preparing some dry food for the journey, they continued on their journey.

As the carriage moved forward, the next few days were calm.

However, the prosperous scenes were fading away, replaced by rolling mountains. The sky was exceptionally blue, as pure as if it had been washed by water.

Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao enjoyed the beautiful scenery in the carriage and gradually relaxed.

Yuemei and Yuezhu would occasionally point at the scenery outside the window and discuss it excitedly, adding some joyful atmosphere to this peaceful journey.

Mo Feng rode his horse in front to lead the way, always keeping alert.

The guards followed the carriage closely, not daring to relax. Although they did not encounter any danger along the way, they knew that they could not let their guard down.

Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the clouds far away in the sky, and for some reason, she suddenly thought of a person in her heart - Xiao Chen.

In my dreams, he always looked into the distance. I wonder what he looks like now? Is he still as lonely as in my dreams?

Liu Yunniang looked at her daughter's thoughtful expression and gently held her hand.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking about?"

Ye Xiaoxiao came back to her senses and said with a smile,

"Mother, I just think this place is so beautiful. Unlike the bustling capital, this place has a simple beauty."

Liu Yunniang nodded.

"Yes, although it is not as prosperous as the capital, it has its own unique charm. Behind this mountain range is the northwest."

"So fast?"

Ye Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. She thought it would take a few more days.

"Ah."

Liu Yunniang nodded and said softly,

"Mo Feng came over this morning and said that we might have to spend the night in the mountains. Otherwise, the weather will get colder. If we delay any longer, once it snows, this road will be blocked."

Ye Xiaoxiao finally understood. That's right. The further west you go, the colder it gets. Yuezhu even took out the hand warmer this morning.

The carriage moved slowly along the rugged mountain road, and the wheels made a creaking sound as they rolled over the stones.

The mountains in the distance looked even more majestic under the sunlight. Ye Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered the sleeve arrows she had improved. She said to Liu Yunniang,

"Mother, when we get to the northwest, I will definitely train Yuemei and Yuezhu well and make their archery skills even better. That way, they can help me hunt pheasants and rabbits in the future. Oh, my mouth is watering when I think about it. Tuantuan loves chicken the most. Yes, Tuantuan has been very busy these days, and I forgot about it."

When Yuezhu heard Ye Xiaoxiao asking about Tuantuan, the little fox, she smiled and said,

"Miss, don't worry. Guard Mo Feng said that the people in the mansion are watching over him. Eat well and sleep well. The little guy has gained a lot of weight from traveling these days!"

Ye Xiaoxiao felt relieved after hearing that. The space in the carriage was limited, and when she left Beijing, she put it in the back of the carriage. She almost forgot about it and didn't know if it would recognize her when the time came.

In front of the carriage, Mo Feng was observing the surrounding environment vigilantly.

As time passed, the sun gradually set and the sky was filled with a layer of gorgeous sunset.

The carriage stopped on a small hillside, and Mo Feng decided to camp here to rest. The guards acted quickly, setting up tents and making fires to cook.

Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao also got off the carriage.

As night fell, the wind howled, but fortunately there was a bonfire to keep out the cold.

Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao sat around the campfire, feeling the warmth.

Mo Feng patrolled around the camp to ensure everyone's safety. The guards also took turns on duty, not daring to slack off.

The fastest route is to go through the mountains, but there are not only wild beasts in the mountains, but it is also easy to be ambushed, so he dare not relax at all.

There were some dry food prepared in the carriage, but Mo Feng got a few fish from somewhere and had them quickly processed. He then handed them to the guards around him, preparing to have them roasted and given to Liu Yunniang, Ye Xiaoxiao and the others as a hot meal.

Seeing this, Ye Xiaoxiao thought about the modern grilled fish and felt her mouth watering. In the past few days, she had been eating dry food, dried meat and cakes every day, and her mouth had long been bitter.

"Grilled fish, Sister Yuezhu, I want to eat grilled fish. Can you help me grill it?"

When Yuezhu heard what Ye Xiaoxiao said, she was unwilling to refuse, and hurriedly asked Mo Feng for two pieces, preparing to roast them for Ye Xiaoxiao herself.
