What a sin! The most handsome lazy man in the village married a crazy woman.

Chapter 433 The Princess Comes to Save Us

After a lot of effort, Shangguan Tang called everyone in the cave, slapped their faces, pricked their acupoints with needles, and tried various methods. Finally, he found thirteen people who were still breathing. Guan Xiaoniu was one of them.

Shangguan Tang placed the thirteen people next to the fire, covered them with warm quilts, boiled water on the campfire, put away the meat, took out the big bone soup, and cooked rice porridge.

The soldiers had not eaten for a long time, so it was not suitable for them to eat greasy food. Bone soup and rice porridge were the most nutritious.

"Why aren't you waking up yet?" Shangguan Tang was so sleepy that she couldn't even open her eyes. With so many people on the road, she hadn't been able to get a good night's sleep and had dark circles under her eyes.

But Guan Xiaoniu and his group had not woken up yet and were still in danger. She couldn't sleep, and she dared not sleep.

"What a nice smell." Suddenly, a weak murmur came into Shangguan Tang's ears.

Shangguan Tang was delighted and looked at Guan Xiaoniu: "Guan Xiaoniu, are you awake? Wake up, wake up!"

She stood up and walked over and slapped Guan Xiaoniu on the face.

Guan Xiaoniu was having a sweet dream when he was suddenly slapped in the face and his eyes opened instantly.

"Who dares to hit me?"

"It's me!" Shangguan Tang said.

Guan Xiaoniu was stunned, only then he realized that there was a person squatting next to him. With that haggard yet beautiful face, who else could it be but Princess Pingshan.

"Princess?" Guan Xiaoniu exclaimed in disbelief, "I am not dreaming, I actually saw Princess Pingshan! Oh my God! What a sin! I actually dreamed of Princess Pingshan. Could it be that I have developed an inappropriate delusion about Princess Pingshan, so I dreamed of Princess Pingshan before I died? Ah! I deserve to die!"

"What are you yelling about!" Shangguan Tang patted his shoulder hard.

"Ah! Be gentle, it hurts, it hurts, my shoulder is going to break!" Guan Xiaoniu grimaced in pain: "It hurts so much, it hurts so much, I am not dreaming, how can it hurt so much in a dream!"

Shangguan Tang smiled and said, "You are not dreaming. Look carefully, this is a cave."

When Guan Xiaoniu stopped shouting, he suddenly realized that this was the cave where he and his brothers were hiding.

"I'm not dead?" Guan Xiaoniu looked at his hands in surprise: "I'm still alive?"

Shangguan Tang said: "You are indeed not dead, you are still alive, you are lucky, you waited for me to come. And they are still alive too."

She pointed at the twelve people around Guan Xiaoniu and said, "Their conditions are not as good as yours. They are only hanging on by a thread. They will have to wait a little longer before they wake up."

Then he looked at the other bodies in the cave and said, "The others are not as lucky as you."

She originally thought that she and Nangong Jingxuan had made thorough preparations, and that they would continue to provide supplies during the battle and would not let the soldiers go hungry. However, now, there were still soldiers who were frozen to death or starved to death!

After Guan Xiaoniu calmed down, he finally figured out the situation. He was not dreaming, he was really rescued. It was Princess Pingshan who saved him.

He looked at the people around him with a sad look, stood up, walked towards the dead soldiers, and knelt on the ground.

"Why are you all gone?"

After Guan Xiaoniu had been grieving for a while, Shangguan Tang brought a bowl of rice porridge to him and said, "Eat something to warm yourself up."

Guan Xiaoniu was flattered and took the rice porridge: "Princess, please take care of me. I am very grateful."

Shangguan Tang waved his hand: "Don't talk about these nonsense, eat well, and tell me your stories after you are full."

Guan Xiaoniu drank the rice porridge. After finishing a bowl of it, he felt warm all over. He finally felt like he was alive again.

"The prince led us to attack the north wing and captured many cities. When we were about to pursue the victory, heavy snow fell and trapped us in Tianming Prefecture. Our army could have left Tianming Prefecture and returned to Yulong Pass, but the prince had a sense of justice and could not bear to abandon the people in the city, so he stayed and could not leave. Before the city was sealed, the prince told me that there was a granary near Yulong Pass. The food there could keep us going for a while, so he asked me to form a food-collecting team and go to the granary to find food."

"Before we found the granary, the team I led encountered an avalanche on the way. We were buried in the snow and lost our way."

After encountering an avalanche, they lost more than 20 people. The rest continued to complete the task. Not long after, they encountered a strong snowstorm, which froze more than 10 people to death. Then, there was another avalanche.

Because of these accidents, their journey was prolonged, they could not find the granary, and could not return to the correct route for a long time.

"Eight days ago, we encountered another avalanche and were trapped in this valley. It was freezing cold, we had no food, and we were completely exhausted. We could only hide in this cave."

"When we hid in, a pile of snow fell from the sky and blocked the cave. We hid there and fell asleep."

This snowstorm is terrible!

After Guan Xiaoniu finished speaking, the other twelve people woke up one after another. At first they thought they were dreaming, and it took them a while to realize that they were saved.

After they grieved for a while and had something to fill their stomachs, Shangguan Tang told them what happened in Tianan Prefecture.

"It's not just Yulong Pass that has a snowstorm, the entire Yuan Dynasty has experienced a snowstorm. As for the situation in other countries, we don't know, but I don't think it will be very good. This snowstorm is too strange, as if the end of the world has come. We must prepare for the worst."

Shangguan Tang continued, "I know where the granary is. When you feel better, come with me to find the granary. As for the bodies of the soldiers, we can bury them later!"

They simply don't have the ability to bury these soldiers now.

Guan Xiaoniu and the dozen or so people were still very weak. After talking for a while, they fell asleep. Only after making sure they were out of danger did Shangguan Tang dare to rest.

Leaving the white tiger guarding the cave entrance, Shangguan Tang lay down on a pile of leaves and fell asleep.

When they woke up, Guan Xiaoniu and his group were still sleeping, so Shangguan Tang took out rice to cook porridge.

Guan Xiaoniu woke up to the smell of rice porridge. After he had eaten his fill, he asked, "Princess, did you bring this rice from Tian'an Prefecture?"

Shangguan Tang said: "I have finished eating the food I brought from Tianan Prefecture. I found this from other granaries on the way here."

"The imperial court has been stockpiling grain in recent years, and there are granaries everywhere. It is no problem to deal with this snowstorm."

"You don't need to worry about the people's food and drink. They live better than you do. Just take care of yourself."

Knowing that the people of the Yuan Dynasty were living well and that food from Yunling Pass and Jiangcheng could be replenished in time, Guan Xiaoniu and his party breathed a sigh of relief.

After another morning of rest, seeing that Guan Xiaoniu and his group had almost recovered, Shangguan Tang took them with him on their journey.

When sitting on the sled and sleigh, Guan Xiaoniu's eyes were full of anticipation.

When the white tiger and white horse started running with the sled and sledge, they shouted with excitement.

"Wow! This is amazing! Is this a sled? So convenient! Much better than a horse-drawn carriage!"

"It's not even this fast on a horse, it's amazing!"

"When we get back, we'll build some more sleds and snowmobiles for everyone to use."
