Chapter 1836: Falling apart

Tong Xinyan hooked her lips and smiled, and said: "Grandmother knows that we will go back sooner or later, so she often tells Ah Mu about some things in the capital, so Ah Mu is very yearning for the life in the capital, and she is even more curious about her aunt and mother-in-law who she has never met. ”

Lin Wan held Zhao Simu's little hand and said softly: "Amu is so well-behaved, my aunt and mother-in-law will definitely like Amu very much." ”

Zhao Simu nodded happily and said, "Great-grandmother misses her aunt very much, and Amu also wants to see her aunt soon." ”

Lin Wan smiled and nodded, and sighed softly: "Auntie too, aunt also wants to see auntie's mother soon." ”

Tong Xinyan also sighed lightly and said slowly: "For more than two years, we have lived a stable and peaceful life in Lianbi City, and we have cut off contact with the outside world. City Lord Qi occasionally comes with some news about you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but City Lord Qi is afraid that his grandfather and grandmother will worry, so he always only picks up good news and says. If there is any bad news, it will be hidden for a while, and only after the danger has passed, will come and tell us. We always thought that you were in Xiling Kingdom, until you returned to the capital, saved the emperor, and accompanied Princess Huixin to Beichen Kingdom, we knew that you had already been exiled to Nanyue Kingdom, and you also suffered a lot of crimes in Nanyue Kingdom. When my grandmother learned of this, she shed tears for several days, and if she hadn't known that you had come back safe and sound, she would have been worried that she would have fallen ill again. Knowing that if you go to Beichen Kingdom, you will definitely face many dangers, and my grandmother is always at ease, and she is worried every day. We have been hiding from her old man about your disappearance in Beichen Kingdom, and she still doesn't know about it. Thankfully, you came back safely, otherwise we wouldn't have known how to explain it to our grandmother. ”

Lin Wan bit her lower lip, smiled bitterly, and said in a low voice: "It's all my fault, I made you worried." However, fortunately, all the dangers have been passed safely, and the capital is not as chaotic as before, so people are panicking, everything will be fine, and we can finally be reunited as a family. ”

Tong Xinyan nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, Jing'er also wrote that next month, she and Biyun will take their children back to Beijing together to attend the enthronement ceremony of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and your wedding." The second uncle had already written a letter to Ming and Ming Yi, and they would also come back from Jiangnan Academy to participate in the scientific expedition next spring. I already left at the end of last month, but I'm afraid that I will return to the capital one step ahead of me. ”

Lin Wan nodded happily, she didn't know what to say, her heart was full, and her eyes blurred unconsciously.

When passing by the barracks of the Eastern Qi army, Lin Wan got out of the carriage and went to meet Qi Ruying, the general of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, and also met her good sister Qi Moyan.

Qi Moyan took Lin Wan's hand and asked a lot about what happened to Lin Wan in Xiling Kingdom, Nanyue Kingdom and Northern Chen Kingdom. Although Qi Moyan also knew some general situations and knew that there must be a lot of dangerous processes, he didn't know what had happened.

If you want to talk about the experience of the past two years in detail, I am afraid that three days and three nights will not be enough. Therefore, Lin Wan only picked out some more interesting ones and told Qi Moyan to listen to.

Qi Ruying also sat aside and listened quietly, admiring Lin Wan's experience and the things Lin Wan had done. After Lin Wan and Qi Moyan finished talking, Qi Ruying took Qi Moyan out and talked to Lin Wan about business.

Lin Wan saw Qi Ruying so solemn, he didn't know what he was going to say, and he couldn't help but look pale, stood up, walked in front of Qi Ruying, knelt down on his knees, kowtowed his head in a proper manner, and said respectfully: "Uncle Qi, my grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, and the entire Zhao family, in such a critical situation, came to join the Eastern Qi army, you took them in at the risk of breaking with the imperial court, and took them in on the charge of rebellion, Wan'er's great kindness to you will never be forgotten!"

Qi Ruying hurriedly got up, helped Lin Wan up, shook his head and said, "Wan'er doesn't have to be like this, my father and your grandfather have been friends of life and death for many years, no matter what the circumstances, naturally they will not sit idly by and ignore the Zhao family." What's more, without the help of you and His Royal Highness the Prince, and without the support of King Dongli, even the Bicheng and Dongqi armies would not be able to hold out now, but I am afraid that they would have been used by King Ning and King Ning to use the Xue family to disintegrate and fall apart, and the Eastern Qi army would have to bow their heads to the court for help because of the problem of military salaries and military rations. ”

Lin Wan stood up, smiled slightly, and said, "Uncle Qi, the Apocalypse is about to succeed to the throne, and the barrier between the Eastern Qi army and the imperial court no longer exists. No matter what time it is, Tianqi will never doubt the loyalty of the Eastern Qi army, let alone forget the help of the Qi family to us. ”

Qi Ruying smiled and nodded, and said, "Wan'er, what I want to tell you is exactly this matter." At the beginning, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left the capital, because he was worried that the imperial court would be unfavorable to Lian Bicheng and the Eastern Qi army, in order to prevent the Eastern Qi army from being subject to Zhou Tianhong, he had ordered someone to hand over the military talisman of the Eastern Qi army to me. Now that the matter has passed, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to take power, the Eastern Qi army naturally no longer has any worries, and will definitely be loyal to the imperial court wholeheartedly. Therefore, this talisman will naturally be returned to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. After speaking, he took out a pair of eagle-shaped talismans from his sleeve and handed one of them into Lin Wan's hands.

Lin Wan didn't shirk either, carefully put it away, and nodded in response: "Uncle Qi, don't worry, I will definitely hand over this talisman to the hands of the Apocalypse." You will also be conveyed to him your determination to serve the court. ”

Qi Ruying nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I will ask Mo Lin and Rong'er to escort you back to the capital together to participate in the enthronement ceremony of His Royal Highness the Prince, the gift of your wedding to His Royal Highness the Prince, my second brother has also been prepared, you will naturally know when you arrive in Lianbi City." ”

Lin Wan had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask, nodded, and said, "Thank you, Uncle Qi, it's really good to have Brother Mo Lin and Sister Rong'er accompany us to the capital, and we won't be lonely along the way." ”

Qi Ruying laughed, nodded, and said, "Okay, it's not early, you should hurry up, your grandfather and grandmother are waiting for you in the City Lord's Mansion, before dinner, you should be able to go to Lianbi City." ”

Lin Wan bowed to Qi Ruying and said, "Uncle Qi, Wan'er has taken her leave." If there is a chance in the future, Wan'er will definitely come to see you again. ”

Qi Ruying smiled and nodded, waved his hand, didn't say anything more, and watched Lin Wan walk out of his military tent.

After Lin Wan said goodbye to Qi Moyan, he returned to the carriage and continued to move towards Lianbi City.

Zhao Simu had eaten the pastry and had fallen asleep in Tong Xinyan's arms. Bing'er left Lin Wan some to eat, and after Lin Wan finished eating, he leaned on Bing'er's shoulder and fell asleep.
