Chapter 280: Retreat

Although it was winter, it had been many days since the news of Zihuai's death came, Xiao Jiu naturally knew that Chu Yinghan was in a hurry, and he didn't endure the pain all the way.

Along the way, he recalled the past with Zihuai, and secretly cried, he has always been bright, but he has never been accompanied by his wife and children at home, and now he is leaving, I don't know how the people in his house live.

Non-stop, I finally rushed to Jiangdu, everything in Jiangdu was quite stable, no one revolted, and there were no bandits. The general's mansion was not as defeated as imagined, although it was a funeral, it was also reasonable and orderly. Hearing that Chu Yinghan was coming, Mrs. Zihuai greeted her, with no unnecessary grief on her face, but a slight tiredness in the corners of her eyes.

Chu Yinghan looked at the mourning curtain on the door and grieved, frowned tightly, and his wife hurriedly knelt down and said: "Emperor Ying atoned for his sins, when he came back for his husband, he had been delayed for many days, and he died of poisoning, and the concubine wanted him to walk decently, and he was buried!"

Chu Yinghan was also silent, waved his hand slightly, and said, "I'm sorry for you!" Mrs. Zihuai reddened the corners of her eyes slightly, but she endured it, without losing her dignity at all, and said lightly: "Emperor Ying is not like this, it is his duty to protect the family and defend the country, and besides, his person, Yi Bo Yuntian, said to me when he came back last time, after this time, find a quiet mountain stream, and take me and the child to live for a long time, now it's good, it's really quiet!"

Chu Yinghan saw that she was desolate, and couldn't help but reddened the corners of his eyes, only glanced at the Bailian in the hall, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I will definitely take care of you for him!" Mrs. Zihuai said with a wry smile: "Emperor Ying doesn't have to bother, he is waiting for you to come back, and then he will move to the mountain stream to live, he has a wild temperament, if no one talks to him, it will be lonely to come!"

Chu Yinghan was taken aback, "Are you going to guard the tomb?" Mrs. Zihuai smiled slightly and said: "When I was born, I was also guarding in the mansion, but I changed places, and my life must be lived!"

Mrs. Zihuai bowed again and said: "Then the concubine is relieved, thank you Emperor Ying!" I didn't dare to say more, my intuition was sour, and I was angry, I couldn't break through my chest, and hurriedly said goodbye. When he left, he didn't go back to his chariot, but returned to Xiao Jiu's chariot. hugged Xiao Jiu tightly, covered the tears in his eyes, and hugged him for a long time before he said sharply: "Go back to the palace!"

Unexpectedly, when the Western Barbarian King heard the news, he personally sent a letter and retreated to rest, presumably Tuoba Gu made a lot of contributions, but the Western Barbarian customs were too different from the Northern Chi, and the new prince had to live in the Beichi Palace for a long time.

Nanshang has always been strong, and he really sent troops, but the heavy soldier talisman was also in Chu Yinghan's hands, so it was just an egg to hit the stone, Chu Yinghan was immersed in it, and it was completely handed over to Li You to deal with, and he went to the Fengyin Hall every day to accompany him, Xiao Jiu was sick, and Zhiyuan also moved back to the Fengyin Palace, although the family was together, there was always an indescribable sense of restraint.

Zihuai's death, Chu Yinghan's mood was always depressed, but Xiao Jiu was still sick, he had been forbearing, but he was interested in the Bodhisattva Sutra she copied, and he used a ponytail pen to transcribe it every day. Sometimes Xiao Jiu fell asleep and woke up, and saw him transcribing by candlelight. I don't know how to persuade him, so I can only rely on him.

After another four months, just after Chinese New Year's Eve, Tie Chuang came good news, the Nanshang Yu Party was finally cleared, and now the merger of the four countries has become a reality, just asking the four countries to share the same system, it will take time, Chu Yinghan has no intention of taking care of it, only let Zeng Xiaosheng and Li You manage. Fortunately, the two of them are dedicated to the people, and nothing will go wrong.

When he woke up this day and night, Chu Yinghan copied under the lamp again, Xiao Jiu's internal injuries were almost healed, and he couldn't bear it, so he got out of bed and walked to him gently, took the pen in his hand and said: "People can't be resurrected after death, so don't mind so much!" Chu Yinghan saw her get up, and hurriedly took a cloak and put it on for her and said: "It's just spring, and I don't wear some clothes!"

Xiao Jiu didn't say much and clenched his hand tightly, with comfort in his eyes. Chu Yinghan smiled bitterly and said, "These days, I am always thinking about the old couple's house, you said that if we go out, where should we choose?" Xiao Jiu was slightly stunned, and said with loss: "Now that the four countries have just been merged, their Chinese characters and systems have to be adapted, you want to escape at this moment, Li You must not kill you, and if you leave, what will happen to this continent?"

Chu Yinghan said in a deep voice: "Zihuai has already had the intention of retreating, but he doesn't say it. I think it was because I didn't have a powerful henchman by my side at that time, and he was very tired during that time, maybe he was self-hypnotizing like me at the moment, and if I stayed up for another day, everything would be over!"

Xiao Jiu sighed lightly, only held him tightly and listened softly. He only paused for a moment, and then said: "Sometimes maybe we think too much about our position to be firmly bound in this strange circle, maybe I am not so important, if I thought that Zihuai was not important earlier, let him go, at this moment he must be drinking around drinking and listening to the piano, teaching his children archery and dancing knives! Xiao Jiu, did I do something wrong?"

Xiao Jiu sighed lightly and said solemnly: "No matter what your original intention is, the situation on this continent seems to have changed greatly, but no one in the people has anything to discuss, this is the purpose of what you do, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and live a healthy life." It doesn't matter if the four countries merge or not!"

Chu Yinghan was stunned and said with a wry smile: "You're right, if I had realized the Tao earlier....." Halfway through speaking, seeing that she looked tired, he comforted again: "It's okay, go to sleep quickly, tomorrow the witch doctor will come and see, if it is really the same as what Ji Yu said, we can also be regarded as a blessing in disguise, then King Xuan is extremely cunning, and I am not sure that I will be able to find that witch doctor!"

Xiao Jiu shook his arm and said, "It's okay, I feel a lot more clear these days, it must be good!"

Early in the morning of the second day, the witch doctor came to chant, Xiao Jiu did not feel a headache, but in the end, he leaned over and retched. Chu Yinghan's face sank, and he hurriedly went to help, panicking in his heart, afraid that the witch doctor would never be able to find it again.

Seeing this, Ji Yu probed, but laughed again, the smile was hidden behind the black veil and was very weird, which made everyone in the hall frightened, and before she could ask her, the witch doctor finished chanting, but he knelt down with one hand and said: "Congratulations to Emperor Ying, the virtuous queen has been pregnant for more than three months!"

Xiao Jiu was shocked, these days he only cared about observing Chu Yinghan's mood fluctuations, but he forgot to diagnose his pulse, and finally achieved it after looking forward to it for a long time, his eyes were full of excitement to see Chu Yinghan, and it was the first time he had seen him smile heartily in so long.
