Chapter 678 Epilogue: Cold Wind
Leng Feng and Yun Cui have lived in Hushui County for many years, but they have only met their master once in all these years.
From then on, Leng Feng and Yun Cui will live their lives peacefully.
Until the death of Yun Cui's father Yun Bowen, they turned Hushui County into one of the seven border cities of Ling State, becoming the third largest country besides Yun State and Ling State.
As a former subordinate of Chen Wang Ling Chenyu, Leng Feng easily took the position of City Lord of Hushui County.
Yun Cui didn't have too many difficulties following him, and their life went smoothly. In the second year after their marriage, she gave birth to a baby boy, and a few years later, she gave birth to two more children.
In short, after leaving Prince Chen's Mansion, Leng Feng's life was smooth sailing and he had a son and a daughter.
But when the night was quiet, Leng Feng missed the days when he followed Liu Yaoyao around.
It seemed that without Princess Liu Yaoyao, his life had become dull and boring.
It is said that one day, Leng Feng was sitting in his own yard, staring at the starry sky.
The feeling of nostalgia in my heart came up again, and I couldn't help but mutter: "If the princess was still here, our life would be so lively!"
Yun Cui came out of the house with a bowl of hot soup and joked when she heard this.
"Oh, Lord Leng Feng, are you thinking about your Princess Chen again? Look, your eyes are almost drifting to the horizon."
Leng Feng came back to his senses, looked at the bowl of soup in Yun Cui's hand, and said with a smile.
"My Yuncui is so thoughtful. She knew I was upset and brought me a bowl of soothing soup."
As he said this, he was about to reach out to take it.
Yun Cui dodged and pretended to be angry.
"I don't have any tranquilizing soup, but I do have a vinegar jar. Do you want some?"
When Leng Feng heard this, he burst into laughter and hugged Yun Cui in his arms.
"Why would I be jealous? Having you in my life is enough for me. But having said that, the princess's daring and hard-working spirit is really something I miss."
Yun Cui also laughed.
"No matter how much I miss you, our life is pretty comfortable now. Besides, if the princess really comes back and sees how well we live, she might envy us."
As they were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door, startling the two of them.
Yun Cui hurried to open the door. A dusty stranger was standing outside the door, holding a letter in his hand, saying that it was sent by someone from Prince Chen's Mansion.
Leng Feng took the letter, opened it, and his expression instantly became solemn.
Seeing this, Yun Cui asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? Did something happen in the palace?"
Leng Feng shook his head, then nodded and said.
"It's not the palace that's in trouble, it's the princess... The princess is back, and she brought Prince Chen with her, saying she wants to attack our Hushui County!"
When Yun Cui heard this, she was also stunned and didn't react for a long time.
Leng Feng had come back to his senses and said, "It seems that our little days are over. However, I am very happy to see the princess again."
Yun Cui rolled her eyes at him.
"Happy? I think you are too happy. Let's think of a solution quickly, otherwise we won't be able to defend the city gate when the princess comes."
Leng Feng chuckled.
"Countermeasures? What countermeasures can we have? You know the princess' temper. If she wants to attack the city, can we, the minions, stop her?
I think we should just surrender. Maybe the princess will leave us with an intact body for all the years we have been here."
When Yun Cui heard this, she stamped her feet in anger.
"Leng Feng, can you be serious? We have to protect this land. How can we surrender so easily?"
Seeing that Yun Cui was really angry, Leng Feng quickly put away his smile.
"Alright, alright, no surrender. Let's use the 'empty city plan' to show the princess that we haven't been living in vain all these years."
So the two of them began to make intensive preparations, arranging the city defenses while sending people to inquire about the princess's movements.
However, the one who came that day was Lin Nuoer.
It turned out that after Ling Chenyu and Liu Yaoyao disappeared, Lin Nuoer took over everything in Chen Palace, and she was even more fearless, especially with the support of Lin Qingzhou.
It was also when Lin Nuoer led his troops to Hushui County that Leng Feng realized that things in Ling Kingdom had already changed.
Emperor Mu passed away suddenly, and the throne was passed to Ling Jinhan.
Lin Nuo'er was betrothed to Song Ting, a former member of the Imperial Guard, and Song Ting was given the title of King of Zhennan.
The princess and the prince who came calling were referring to Zhennan Prince Song Ting and Qianchen Princess Lin Nuoer.
When Leng Feng heard the news, he almost fell off his chair and said with his eyes wide open.
"What? The princess is calling with the prince? When was the prince replaced? The princess is also replaced? The script is changing too fast, my brain can't keep up!"
Yun Cui was also stunned by what she heard, and it took her a long time to react.
"This Lin Nuo'er is really cruel. When Prince Chen disappeared, she occupied Prince Chen's mansion. Now she is bringing the new prince to fight us? There are all kinds of people in this world."
Leng Feng rubbed his temple and sighed.
"Yes, the world is changing fast, and we have to find a way to deal with it quickly. But then again, if Lin Nuoer leads his troops to fight us, we can't just sit there and wait for death."
Yun Cui nodded and said.
"Yes, we have to come up with a plan and not let them succeed so easily."
Just when the two were at a loss, there was suddenly a noise outside the door.
Leng Feng frowned, stood up and walked out the door, only to see several soldiers arguing with a little boy.
Leng Feng shouted, "What are you doing? Let him go!"
When the soldiers saw Leng Feng, they quickly let go of his hands and said, “City Lord, this kid insisted on coming in, and we couldn’t stop him.”
Leng Feng looked down and saw a handsome little boy with a stubborn gleam in his eyes. It was his and Yun Cui's eldest son, Leng Xiaofeng.
As soon as Leng Xiaofeng saw Leng Feng, she immediately threw herself into his arms.
"Dad, I heard someone wants to beat us up, is that true?"
Leng Feng touched Leng Xiaofeng's head and said, "Yes, but don't be afraid, Dad and Mom will protect you."
Leng Xiaofeng raised his head and said firmly: "Dad, I want to help too! I can't let you face danger alone."
When Leng Feng heard this, he was touched, but he still said it.
"You kid, you're still helping us, it's good enough if you don't cause us any trouble."
Yun Cui also came out of the house and said, "Xiao Feng is right. We as a family should face difficulties together. Leng Feng, just ask him for help."
Leng Feng nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, then you stay with us, but you must obey our orders and not act on your own."
When Leng Xiaofeng heard this, he immediately jumped up with joy.
"Great! I can finally help!"
The whole family began to make preparations intensively.
Leng Feng led the soldiers in the city to reinforce the city walls, Yun Cui was responsible for preparing food and medicine, and Leng Xiaofeng followed Leng Feng all day long to learn how to command the battle.
A few days later, Lin Nuoer and Song Ting's army finally arrived at the city of Hushui County.
I saw Lin Nuoer riding a tall horse, wearing military uniform, with a proud smile on her face.
Lin Nuoer shouted loudly: "Leng Feng, you kid, why don't you open the city gate and surrender quickly? Otherwise, when I attack, I will make sure that not a single piece of your armor remains!"
