71. Chapter 71
Pain! Heart-rending pain!
Zhou Qingqing felt that he might not be able to live, and his eyes were full of pictures of his childhood in Jinling Mansion, where his father was wearing armor and was about to leave home. She was reluctant, and jumped forward to follow him.
But another heroic figure suddenly appeared and pulled her back: "Qingqing, follow me home!" ”
……
"Lord Wang! The Shu soldiers have retreated! ”
"Withdrawn?" Qin Zhen, who was sitting in the main tent, was a little incredulous when he heard the report.
"Yes! They seemed to be just probing the truth, and according to the news from the front, they only sent 20,000 troops this time, not 100,000 as previously rumored. ”
Qin Zhenjun's eyebrows furrowed, and he couldn't think of Feng Xiao's tricks.
At this time, someone ran in again: "Lord Wang, I received a message from the flying pigeon, and the Wuwang Mansion in the capital was assassinated." ”
"What?" Qin Zhen was shocked, "How is the princess?" ”
The soldier kneeling on the ground said, "Congratulations to the princess, the princess gave birth to Lin'er on the night of the assassination." ”
Qin Zhen was stunned for a while before he reacted: "You mean to say that the princess is fine?" ”
The soldier nodded: "Mother and son are safe." ”
Qin Zhen breathed a heavy sigh of relief, sat down on the stool, and waved his big hand: "Call Qin Luo, this king will leave for Xijing immediately." ”
When his words fell, Qin Luo had already come in: "Third brother, are you going back?" ”
Qin Zhen nodded happily: "Your sister-in-law is born, I have to go back to see her immediately." ”
"What?" Qin Luo jumped up incredulously, "Sister-in-law is born?" Girl or boy? ”
"Boy."
Qin Luo said with a smile: "Then dare to be kind, grow up in the future, let him follow me to march and fight." ”
"You're beautiful!" Qin Zhen said, "You hurry up and give birth to one yourself." After saying that, he straightened his clothes, and explained while walking outside: "I'll go back to the capital, I'll hand it over to you here, if Feng Xiao has any movement, I'll send the book to me immediately." ”
Qin Luo smiled and said, "Received!" ”
Qin Zhen walked to the door of the account and said, "By the way, there is news from Nie Jin's side." They are recruiting troops in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and when the time is ripe, they will send a letter to crusade against Feng Xiao, and they will join forces with us at that time. ”
Qin Luo nodded thoughtfully: "I hope he will be smooth." ”
Qin Zhen looked at his sister, chuckled, shook his head and walked briskly towards Ma Ying.
Two days later, Qin Zhen, who arrived at the Xijing Palace, rushed straight to the bedroom of the other courtyard.
"Qingqing-Qingqing-"
While calling and pushing the door in, what I saw was a big and a small Zhou Qingqing lying on the bed, next to Zhou Qingqing, who was pale and weak, sleeping a sound baby.
Qin Zhen suddenly stopped and didn't dare to step forward again, for fear of disturbing the tranquility.
It was Zhou Qingqing who smiled and looked at him softly: "Lord Wang, look-"
Qin Zhen walked over cautiously, with a heart in his throat, knelt lightly beside the bed, looked at the baby who was still a little wrinkled on the bed, and couldn't help crying with joy, and kissed his son on the face a few times.
Not surprisingly, the little baby was woken up by him and cried out.
Zhou Qingqing hurriedly held her in his arms and patted her to soothe, and glared at Qin Zhen who sat up with disgust: "The child was born very weak, so you can't be light!" ”
Qin Zhen looked at the mother and son and smiled stupidly.
At this time, Zhou Qingqing had already retreated from the girl's youthfulness, and had a little more mother's softness, which made Qin Zhen's eyes hot, and he couldn't help but lean down and drop a kiss on her forehead, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry for making you suffer!" When I heard that the palace had been assassinated, I was almost terrified! It turned out that Feng Xiao deliberately lured me away from Xijing so that he could attack you. ”
Zhou Qingqing was also a little apprehensive, and laughed: "He is thinking about one corpse and two lives, and he will give you a fatal blow." He said, "Fortunately, your senior brother arrived in time, otherwise it would have been his wish." ”
Qin Zhen sighed: "It's also my fault for being careless, he has just entered Shu not long ago, and he is in ruins, how can he devote 100,000 troops to attack Western Qin." ”
Zhou Qingqing looked at his self-reproachful appearance, took out a free hand, and held him: "Qin Zhen, I will be where you are in the future." ”
Qin Zhen nodded: "Okay!" ”
……
Luo's palace in Shuzhong.
With a bang, the teacup smashed on the ground, and the little maid trembled with fright, knelt on the ground and trembled: "The emperor spares his life!" ”
Feng Xiao waved his hand: "Get out!" ”
When the little girl staggered out, the man who was still kneeling on the ground was too frightened to make a sound.
A terrible ridicule appeared on Feng Xiao's handsome face: "A group of rice buckets, such a trivial matter can't be done!" ”
The man whispered: "Originally, the assassin could have killed Princess Wu, but the people in the palace deliberately burned down the house, attracted the imperial city inspectors, and ushered in a master. ”
Feng Xiao frowned: "Master? What master? ”
The man said: "According to the news reported by the escaped spies, it is a chivalrous warrior named Shen Changan. ”
"It turned out to be Shen Changan, no wonder!" Feng Xiao laughed, he waved his hand, "You go down!" ”
After his subordinates left, Feng Xiao said coldly, "Come out!" ”
Zhou Xiangxiang slowly lifted the bead curtain and walked out step by step, looking at him angrily.
Feng Xiao raised her eyebrows: "Did you hear it all?" ”
Zhou Xiangxiang clenched her fists and said angrily: "Why did you kill my eldest sister?" ”
Feng Xiao smiled: "Because she disappointed me too much." Since she likes King Qin Wu so much, I will give her a ride first, and then send your brother-in-law to reunite with her. ”
Zhou Xiangxiang took off the hairpin on her head and rushed forward in two steps: "You devil in human skin, I will kill you." ”
But her hand holding the hairpin had not yet fallen, and it had been caught by Feng Xiao. Her green hair fell, and her stubborn little face was dyed with angry red, but there was a kind of natural beauty.
Qin Zhen grabbed her wrist, his eyes fell on her face, and he hooked his lips and smiled: "It's really similar!" ”
With that, he picked up the struggling girl and walked to the inner room.
"Luo Nianzhi, you let go of me!"
"Good! Be obedient, lest you suffer. ”
"You let go of me!"
The maid outside listened to the terrible screams inside, and only lowered her head and remained indifferent.
……
Yes!
Zhou Qingqing suddenly woke up from his dream and stood up.
"What's wrong?" Qin Zhen woke up because of her movement and asked in a daze.
Zhou Qingqing said: "I dreamed of Xiangxiang, and I dreamed that something happened to her. ”
Qin Zhen sat up and patted her to be comforted: "The news from the spies, although Xiangxiang has been by Feng Xiao's side, as a maid, there is no danger of her life. ”
Zhou Qingqing shook his head: "What is Feng Xiao going to do?" ”
Qin Zhen said: "I am arranging for spies to find an opportunity to break into Feng Xiao's side and try to take Xiangxiang away." But it may be at least a few months. ”
Zhou Qingqing got out of bed past him: "I want to go and see Bao'er." ”
Qin Zhen pulled her back: "You haven't been out of confinement yet, just rest well and let the nurse take it." I guess Bao'er is sleeping soundly now! ”
Zhou Qingqing had to lie down again, and opened his eyes to look at the dark tent roof: "Xiangxiang is staying by Feng Xiao's side now, Xun'er and Ah Jin have no news, I really can't sleep well now." ”
"Don't think about it, it's important for you to take care of yourself now. I am terrified when I think of the day you were assassinated. He asked, as if he remembered something, "By the way, what's the matter with the eldest sister?" I didn't seem to see her come over in the past few days, was she frightened by the assassin that night? ”
For most of the past half a month, one is the joy and chaos of being a first-time mother, and the other is weakness. Zhou Qingqing almost threw Zhou Ranran's stubble out of the clouds, or she deliberately didn't think about what she did to herself that night. Because once I remembered it, I was so disappointed that I felt uncomfortable, and I had the heart to strangle her.
She was silent for a moment and said, "Lord Wang, after thinking about it, I still have to let Ran Ran send back to Jinling." ”
"Isn't she reluctant to go?"
Zhou Qingqing smiled bitterly: "It's up to her." ”
Qin Zhen snorted and said disapprerovingly: "Anyway, she is your sister, you can arrange it no matter what." ”
When encountering a careless man like him, Zhou Qingqing didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Perhaps, if he only knew Zhou Ranran's thoughts, it would be fine, I am afraid that he would accidentally know what Zhou Ranran did to her that night of the assassin.
She had his first child in her womb, and she wasn't sure what he would do.
But in the end, it was her own sister, even if she did that kind of thing to herself, she couldn't bear to watch her die. I only wish we would never see each other again for the rest of my life.
