Just as Song Yao said, five days later, it started snowing heavily again.

The snow that fell before has not melted yet, and it is snowing so heavily today. This is undoubtedly adding insult to injury for Song Yao and the others.

Fortunately, Xiao Chi went to find Han Ji, otherwise they would definitely be on the road now.

The snow lasted for two days before it stopped.

However, there was thick snow on the road and they could not set off. They had to wait until the snow melted before they could set off.

It took four or five days for the snow to melt.

So on the morning of the sixth day, Song Yao and the others packed up and set off.

It was the time when the ice and snow were melting, and the temperature outside was really low. Even though they were sitting in the carriage, they still felt very cold.

It was so cold inside the carriage, not to mention Song Mingxuan and the others who were driving the carriage outside.

As expected, an accident happened.

At noon, because the weather was too cold, three horses remained motionless no matter how they drove them.

When this happened suddenly, the other carriages had to stop.

Seeing that the horse refused to move, Song Mingxuan turned to Song Yao and the others in the carriage and said, "Ayao, the horse won't move. What should we do?"

When Song Yao in the carriage heard this, she came out to check the situation.

She also urged the horse, but the horse still stopped and refused to move. Then she saw that the horse's hair on its back was all covered with frost. She reached out and touched it, and the hair was hard.

When I touched the horse's back again, it was cold.

Song Zizhou got off another carriage and came to Song Yao's side and asked, "What's going on?"

Song Yao sighed, "These horses must be too cold and refuse to move."

Although they knew that horses had thick skin, it was useless in this kind of weather even if they were very resistant to cold. It was really too cold.

Now everyone is in trouble.

Song Mingxuan said, "We can't put clothes on horses either."

"I don't know what to do." Song Yao's face was full of helplessness.

Suddenly, several screams were heard behind them!

The three of them looked at each other and hurriedly walked to the back of the carriage.

As a result, when I went over, I saw a horse fell directly to the ground, and the carriage behind it also overturned. Everyone in the carriage screamed.

Seeing this, Song Zizhou and Song Mingxuan hurried to rescue the people in the carriage.

Song Yao went to check on the horse, and just then Old Man Xu came over.

He walked over to Song Yao, took a look at the horse, and then said, "This horse must have frozen to death!"

Song Zizhou and Song Mingxuan had already rescued the people in the carriage. After hearing what Old Man Xu said, everyone showed an incredible expression!

Yuan Shao asked, "Will this horse also freeze to death?"

Yuan Jizhong said, "The horse is dying. What should we do on this trip?"

Chen Sheng's grandfather, Chen Laodao, said, "Horses can indeed freeze to death if the weather is very cold."

He had raised two horses before, and the temperature at that time was the same as it is now. The next day, when he went to the stable, he found that one of the horses was dead.

This made him very sad.

"Oh no, a horse behind us has fallen down!" Song Jingmo's voice came from behind them.

Song Yao and the others looked at each other and hurried to the back to check the situation.

As a result, the horse in the carriage driven by Song Jingmo also fell to the ground, dying.

Old Man Xu hurried to check the situation. No matter what, the horse was a life, so he asked Song Jingmo and others to get a quilt to cover the horse. Then he asked everyone to quickly light a fire to keep the horse warm.

However, Old Man Xu was just trying it out, and it was not certain whether he could save the patient.

The people around thought it was ridiculous when they saw Old Man Xu had two mattresses covered on the horse.

Old Man Xu ignored them and continued to ask them to make the fire bigger.

In this way, a fire was burned on each side of the horse, and thick blankets were covered on the horse.

The horse, which was originally dying, actually recovered a little after this operation.

It seemed to know that everyone was rescuing it, so it lay on the ground without moving.

During this time, some people were warming themselves by the fire, and some were eating.

Half an hour later, the horse recovered.

But the other horse was not so lucky. Yes, the horse that fell to the ground before was dead.

Xiao Yan was also worried, so he said to Song Yao, "Ayao, why don't you hurry on! Otherwise, these horses will surely freeze to death. We need these horses to get to Fengzhou. If they all freeze to death, we won't be able to move forward."

Song Qian, who was standing nearby, echoed, "Yes, it's freezing cold now. If we continue on our journey, not only will the horses suffer, but we will suffer too!"

E Yu said, "Why don't we stay a few more days until it's not so cold and then continue our journey."

Chen He said: "It's mainly because it's too cold now. The other horses are also cold. If we continue on our journey, a few more horses will surely die!"

After hearing what everyone said, Song Yao didn't want to let any other horses die, so she went over to ask Han Ji for his opinion.

Han Ji naturally hoped that they would keep on traveling, after all, they were all criminals being escorted to Fengzhou. However, Xiao Chi had warned him before that no matter what Song Yao said, he had to agree.

He was just a small general, and he dared not disobey Prince Heng's words.

There was no choice but to agree to Song Yao's request and let them rest here for a few days, and then continue their journey when it was no longer so cold.

After Song Yao left, Sun Changqing, who was standing next to Han Ji, said, "General, do we really want to let them stay here for a few more days? They are all exiled. We have already made concessions so many times. This is the limit. We can't indulge them anymore!"

Han Ji looked at Song Yao's back and sighed, "Prince Heng and Prince Jing are both in their team. If they weren't here before, we naturally couldn't be so indulgent. But now they are both here. Whether it's Prince Heng or Prince Jing, we can't offend them. Besides, Prince Heng has already warned me before, I don't want to get killed!"

Sun Changqing was also afraid of Xiao Chi and Xiao Yan. Now after hearing what Han Ji said, he no longer dared to say the same things as before.

"Then Prince Heng and Prince Jing are going to follow them all the time, right?" Sun Changqing looked at Han Ji and asked.

Han Ji glanced at Sun Changqing and asked, "Don't you see a problem?"

Sun Changqing was a little confused and shook his head, "What's the problem?"

Sun Changqing snorted and laughed, "Prince Heng came here to get Song Yao's forgiveness. In other words, if Song Yao forgives him, then Song Yao will be Prince Heng's Consort in the future. So, no matter whether it is Prince Heng or Song Yao, we cannot offend them. Well, the emperor didn't say when they will arrive in Fengzhou. As long as they are still heading to Fengzhou, we don't need to worry too much."

Now that Song Yao didn't agree to Xiao Chi, she would be a criminal. If she agreed in the future, she would be the princess. If they treated her harshly, she would inevitably take revenge on them later.

So now Song Yao and the others cannot be offended.

After Han Ji said this, Sun Changqing understood.
