Traveling through time and space to become a concubine's daughter, leading the whole village to

The General of Cavalry and his family did not stay long. After a while, they rode back to the capital.

After the General of the Cavalry left with his wife and the Crown Princess, Xu Miao asked Zhou Jicheng, "I see you're all very close to the General of the Cavalry. Are you familiar with him?"

Xu Miao knew that the General of the Cavalry was the most valiant general in the Great Zhou Dynasty, commanding soldiers in the capital to protect the emperor. However, he did not know that the General of the Cavalry was so familiar with the soldiers in the Northern Frontier.

Zhou Jicheng was tearing the dried meat in his hand and handed one to Xu Miao.

"Ah Miao, try this! It's made with roe deer meat. The General's wife makes it the best. It doesn't have any earthy smell at all. If it's not made well, it will taste terrible."

"The General of the Cavalry was originally a captain of a thousand men in the Northern Frontier. General Liu was very kind to him. It was General Liu who single-handedly promoted the General of the Cavalry."

"Madam supported the general all the way to the capital."

"Their family came to Beijing for my sister, the Crown Princess. If my sister hadn't married my brother, the Crown Prince, their family would still be living in the Northern Frontier."

"Northern Frontier is considered the headquarters of the General of the Cavalry. Aside from General Liu, he has the highest prestige there."

"When I first arrived in the Northern Frontier, on my first battlefield, the General of the Cavalry tied me up like that guard did with Chun'er."

Zhou Jicheng pointed at the guard carrying Chun'er and continued to talk to Xu Miao, "The first time I went to the battlefield, I was also tied to the general's waist. I watched as fierce barbarians rode on their horses, brandishing steel knives, charging towards us. Then there was a bloody scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere, and every blow cut into flesh."

"A Miao, I still remember that war."

Zhou Jicheng said in a hoarse voice, "This is the first time I've felt that life is so fragile, yet so precious."

Zhou Jicheng paused for a moment and smiled, "After returning to the barracks, I was unconscious for three days before waking up. The military doctor said I was frightened."

"Because of this, the Crown Princess Sister has laughed at me a lot. But the Crown Princess Sister is like this. She has followed the Madam to the battlefield since she was in her mother's womb."

When Zhou Jicheng talked about the Crown Princess, he gave Xu Miao a thumbs up sincerely.

"Killing someone is like chopping a watermelon, it's just like chopping a piece of cake."

As he spoke, Zhou Jicheng waved the dried meat in his hand and gestured to Xu Miao a few times.

Xu Mingzhu...I just said that I was right to hold on to the Crown Princess, you guys don’t understand!

While Xu Miao was chatting with Zhou Jicheng, the guards distributed some of the food sent by the General of Cavalry to everyone.

They had been running all morning and had not yet had breakfast. They thought they would be hungry until noon, when they could stop to hunt some pheasants and rabbits to fill their stomachs.

I didn't expect that the General of Cavalry and his family had made such complete preparations. The carriage was filled with a lot of easy-to-carry food such as dried meat and flatbread.

They also prepared rice, flour, grain and oil for them, and even brought them a large iron pot for cooking.

The coachman cheerfully introduced these to the guards: "These are all prepared by the general's wife for you. She was worried that you wouldn't eat well on the road."

"Madam also said that there is no war in the northern border now, so you can go slowly. I can cook, and I was sent here specifically to serve you military masters."

The driver was a thin, dark-skinned man in his forties, who looked like a soldier who had fought in the battlefield.

"The general's wife has also prepared a lot of skins and quilts for you." The coachman said, pointing to a large package at the front of the carriage.

"There are leathers in here. We'll take them out and use them when we camp at night."

The guards were so happy that they shouted "Long live the General's wife!" and "How sweet of her!" They surrounded the carriage and kept shouting for a long time.

With the addition of three carriages, Xu Miao and his companions' journey slowed down. They stopped and started along the way, enjoying a leisurely journey.

Chun'er and Xu Xiaoman also got off the guards' horses and were put into the carriage.

Xu Xiaoman was fine, so he learned horse riding from the guard who started carrying him, and vowed to learn how to ride before reaching the northern border.

Chun'er had nothing to do but followed the older guard and kept calling him uncle.

The older guard was also happy to treat Chun'er as his own daughter. He would ride his horse and take her for a ride whenever he had nothing to do. Chun'er was so happy that she smiled like a flower every day.

On this day, Zhou Jicheng took Xu Miao out on horseback to hunt. In a short while, they caught several pheasants and two hares.

The further north you go, the more desolate the road becomes.

Sometimes I could run for dozens of miles without seeing a single house.

Occasionally they would come across some small villages, which were mostly populated by poor people who looked at them in a daze as they passed through the village.

Seeing this, Zhou Jicheng said to Xu Miao, "It will be better once we reach Dingzhou City. The north is bitterly cold, and there are only a few crops that can be cultivated. To fill their stomachs, most people have migrated south."

Dingzhou City is the largest border town in the northern border, an important military fortress in the northern border, and a natural barrier between the northern border and the capital.

Xu Miao had previously mentioned to Zhou Jicheng that she wanted to go to the northern border to find Hanjia Village. Zhou Jicheng told her at the time that once she arrived in Dingzhou City, she could ask for the specific location of Hanjia Village.

There are officials in Dingzhou City who are specifically responsible for managing household registration. Over the years, all residents in Dingzhou City have been registered. In order to prevent foreign spies, Dingzhou City has always strictly managed the foreign population.

Xu Miao felt okay with these scenes, and she was full of confidence in the northern border.

Seeing this desolate road and thinking of Zhou Jicheng's journey from the capital to the northern border alone, one would feel a little sad.

Then he asked Zhou Jicheng about this topic: "Acheng, when you came from the capital to the northern border alone, didn't you feel lonely?"

Zhou Jicheng quickly shook his head and said with a smile, "I don't feel anything at all. The first time I went to Northern Xinjiang was in summer."

"Although there weren't many people along the way, the guards who brought me to the northern border took me hunting and fishing when they had nothing to do."

"That was the first time I'd been away from the palace for so long. Here, the sky is vast and the ground is deep, and you can see a thousand miles away at a glance. It's completely different from the square sky in the palace."

"We traveled all the way, stopping and starting for more than two months before we finally arrived in the Northern Frontier and met General Liu and the General of the Cavalry."

Zhou Jicheng recalled the scene when he first went to the northern border. Perhaps his father was afraid that he would miss home, so he specifically asked the guards to take him out to play and make him happy along the way.

By the time I arrived in the northern border, the depression in my heart had dissipated a lot.

Not long after arriving in the northern border, there was a war in the northern border. I followed the General of Cavalry to the battlefield and had no time to think about the things in the palace.

He was busy training soldiers with the General of Cavalry, mainly because Zhou Jicheng had witnessed the cruelty of war with his own eyes and knew that if he wanted to survive on the battlefield, he had to practice hard when he had nothing to do.

He trained hard with the soldiers every day, and over time, he gradually forgot about what was happening in the capital.

If he had not been occasionally summoned back to the capital by his father, Zhou Jicheng would have almost forgotten his identity as a prince.

In addition to Zhou Jicheng's concern that the desolate scene would affect Xu Miao, Chun'er also expressed that she was particularly worried.

Chun'er was not worried about the bleak scene, she was mainly worried that she would not be able to spend the money.
