The cold moonlight shrouded the Canine Militant Tribe. The night outside the fortress was destined to not be peaceful. The white dog was wandering in the darkness to protect its master's home. To the people of the dog tribe, the white dog was a part of their family. The poor family would first give the white dog some food.
The white dogs were supported by their masters, who would also go out to hunt for prey, but this year was different. Today there was an early frost, followed by hail, which caused the grass on the prairie to fall and the loss of livestock to be incalculable.
Every storm was a painful disaster for these tribes who had been grazing and raising livestock in the Western Regions.
This year's disaster was especially severe. All of the clans tightened their belts and started living their lives.
The Zerom tribe was no exception. They asked for help from the great kang. They did not receive help, but instead received heavy soldiers from the great kang instead. This year, they also went to the border of the Great Kang to plunder, as usual. Originally, this was nothing much, as there were incidents like this every year, and this year, Canine Jong did not make any large plundering or invading raids.
Great Kang refused to help, which put Chun Rong in a difficult situation. They wanted to rob the hundreds of carts that delivered food to Great Moon. However, other than leaving behind the corpses of their own clansmen, there was nothing else they could do.
When the two hundred thousand strong soldiers delivered the food, they also surrounded and besieged the dog. At this moment, the food had already been returned to them by the men from the Big Moon branch, and they had no chance at all.
Yue Chanjuan thought that once they reached the Canine Militant, they would definitely meet the Wolf King, Tiefeng. However, she didn't know that at this moment, he didn't have the time to meet her, and was worried about the siege of the imperial army.
Not to mention, there were two hundred thousand elite warriors stationed outside of Jade Gate Pass. No one would think that those twenty elite soldiers were just bored and wanted to experience the bitter cold outside.
Four hundred thousand strong soldiers. This was a rare occurrence in the northern border of the Forbidden City. It wasn't that there hadn't been one before, it was just that it was very far away. Therefore, he didn't dare to underestimate them. He didn't know if Great Kang intentionally destroyed the Canine Militant.
”Your Highness, may I ask if Your Highness has rested?”
There were already two servants assigned to wait upon them in the room, but Zhong Ao Shuang was worried. She personally guarded the outer chamber, setting up a temporary bed to guard Yue Chan's outer chamber.
The room was divided into two floors. Inside was Yue Chanjuan's bedroom, and outside was the temporary berth made up by Zhong Ao Shuang. Two servants slept on the floor in her bedroom.
The floor was covered with a thick blanket and a cotton pad. Yue Chanjuan also knew that most of the ordinary people here lived in the felt house and slept on the floor with a blanket. This was their habit.
The bed in the inner chamber was also temporarily made up. Perhaps it was to get used to the princess of the great karma, so that Yue Chan Juan could sleep on the floor, instead of directly laying a blanket on the floor.
”Third Prince, may I ask what you think of this place?”
Zhong-Ao Shuang was still wearing his leather clothes. He still couldn't get used to wearing the clothes of the Huns, but his clothes had become so dirty that he had to take them down to clean them. He could only wear the clothes of the Huns first.
”I'm here to deliver the white dog to Your Highness. Please take it inside, Mr Zhong.”
Zhong Ao Shuang opened the door and saw Tie Fu standing outside, holding a few furry bundles of items in his leather jacket.
