"Li Qing's house."

Li Shi Min called out.

Li Chunfeng hurriedly turned his head when he heard that.

When he saw that it was Li Shi Min, he quickly cupped his hands and said,"Greetings, Your Majesty."

"No need for formalities."

Li Shi Min raised his hand and asked,"I saw you looking into the distance just now. What are you looking at?”

"I'm checking the weather recently," Li Chunfeng replied.”

"Have you seen the weather recently?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.”

Hearing Li Shiming's question, Li Chunfeng's eyes narrowed.

Previously, he had made a mistake in predicting the weather and was almost punished by Li Shiming.

Now that Li Shi Min asked, if he answered wrongly, Li Shi Min would not let him off.

"The weather has been clear for the past few days. Even if it rains, it's just a drizzle."”

Li Shiming was stunned. What kind of weather was this? Couldn't it be more accurate?

"Then you can measure the weather in the north.”

Li Shi Min decided to get to the point.

Li Chunfeng was taken aback. How could he test the north from so far away?

However, since Li Shiming had asked, he couldn't possibly say that he didn't know.

Fortunately, he had been to the north a few days ago and found that the weather there was not bad.

"The weather in the north has been pretty good recently. It's sunny and windy. Even if it rains, it's just a drizzle."”

To be safe, Li Chunfeng gave an ambiguous answer.

"Is there no possibility of a snowstorm?" Li Shiming frowned.”

"A snowstorm?"

Li Chunfeng was stunned.

Who told Li Shiming that there would be a snowstorm?

Someone must have said it before, or else the other party wouldn't have asked such a question.

"Judging from the weather, there shouldn't be any, but I can't guarantee that there won't be any accidents."”

Li Shi Min's face darkened.

Saying this was equivalent to not saying anything.

"I want an accurate answer."

"Probably not," Li Chunfeng said.”

"Are you sure?" Li Shi Min stared at him.”

" My observations are rarely wrong," Li Chunfeng said." For example, I'm sure it won't rain today."”

Li Shi Min subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Pa!

At this moment, a bean-sized drop of rain landed on his cheek.

Li Shiming touched his cheek and looked at Li Chunfeng."Is this what you mean by it won't rain?”

Li Chunfeng was about to speak when he realized that the rain had started to fall.

His face instantly darkened.

What was going on?

He had just boasted that it would not rain, and now it suddenly rained. Wasn't this a slap to his face?

"Your Majesty, it could be an accident. As the saying goes, unpredictable things happen. It's normal for mistakes to happen occasionally.”

"Humph."

Li Shi Min snorted and turned to leave.

He now realized that not only were the civil and military officials unreliable.

This Li Chunfeng was equally unreliable.

He truly didn't know whether he should let Li Jing continue his pursuit of the Turkic army or stop.

Not long after Li Shimin left, the rain stopped.

Li Chunfeng looked up at the sky and cursed,""F * ck, are you playing with me?"

After returning to the Dew Palace, Li Shiming pondered for a while and sighed,"Forget it, let General Li continue to pursue. I don't want to let go of such a good opportunity.”

"However, as a precaution, I must remind him to pay attention to the weather. Once he discovers that something is wrong, he must immediately stop chasing.”

Deep in the desert north.

In order to pursue the Turkic army, Li Jing had only brought ten thousand cavalry.

After three days of continuous pursuit, they arrived at a desolate grassland.

At this point, all the soldiers were extremely tired. Some of them had not drunk water for a long time, and their lips were already cracked.

Raising his head to look at the depths of the grassland, Li Jing said,""After running for three days, everyone is tired. Let's rest for the night. We'll continue the pursuit tomorrow.”

"Yes."

Hearing this, all the soldiers dismounted.

As soon as they got off their horses, many of them lay on the ground motionless.

After chasing for three days and three nights, they had run out of strength.

"Get up quickly. You can't sleep. You have to replenish your food and water as soon as possible.”

Li Jing walked to the side of these people and shouted.

Hu ~

At this moment, a bone-chilling wind suddenly blew across the plains.

The setting sun in the distance was gradually covered by dark clouds.

"General, bad news. It seems to be snowing.”

At this moment, someone exclaimed.

"It's really snowing."

"What should we do? This place is deserted. Without food and water, we won't be able to live for long.”

Li Jing looked around and found that snowflakes were falling rapidly from the sky and soon covered the ground.

"Everyone, get up and return to Youzhou Province immediately.”

There was no village in front of or behind them. If they continued to stay, once the snow got heavy and froze the road, they would definitely die.

But no matter how Li Jing shouted, no one got up.

They were too tired.

"General, we really can't walk anymore. Let us rest for a while.”

"Yeah, I'm too tired."

Li Jing looked at the soldier lying on the ground. Although he was anxious, he had no choice.

"Alright, then rest for an hour. After that, we must leave this place immediately.”

Li Jing knew very well that in this grassland area, once there was heavy snow, if he did not leave in time, he would be trapped to death.

Li Jing was tired from running around.

He then sat down on the ground.

But as soon as he sat down, he fell asleep in a daze.

After an unknown period of time, a voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"General, wake up."

Hearing the sound, Li Jing opened his eyes and found that his eyelashes were already frozen.

Looking around, it was already covered in snow.

Over ten thousand soldiers were huddled together, shivering.

"Why didn't you call me?"

Li Jing looked at the soldier who came to call him and shouted angrily.

"General, we just woke up."”

Li Jing slowly stood up and looked at the endless snow.

He suddenly knelt on one knee.

"It's over. The snow has blocked the way. We can't move forward or retreat.”
