Shen Xizhen immediately saw what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Master, his old man's methods are much better than ours, so don't bother to guess." ”

Chu Zihou smiled and leaned over to kiss her forehead, and said softly: "Well, anyway, we just need to know that his old man has been secretly helping us." ”

Shen Xizhen nodded.

In the blink of an eye, night fell.

The carriage had reached the outskirts, and suddenly a whirring wind blew all around.

Shen Xizhen, who was good at observing the heavens, asked Chu Zihou to help her open the curtain, she quietly observed the night sky for a while, and then said to Chu Zihou in a tone that couldn't be lighter: "Within three days, we will face a life-and-death duel, and the shape is very severe. She said as she looked at Chu Zihou with tenderness. Since she knew the severity of this duel, she also knew how low the chances of her and Chu Zihou would survive, but she didn't feel afraid, because at the moment he and the child were by her side, she was already very satisfied, so it didn't matter if she would die the next moment.

Therefore, she wanted to look at him so tenderly in all her moments of life, give him courage and love, encourage him to fight, and encourage herself to fight for him and her children.

Chu Zihou read love and courage from those tender eyes, he took a long breath and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't let you have anything to do with the child." With that, he leaned over and kissed her on the forehead again.

Shen Xizhen closed his eyes happily, feeling that he was the happiest person in the world at this moment.

When they arrived at the palace, it was early afternoon, and more than a dozen important ministers were quietly waiting in front of Emperor Guangxuan's bed. And there are dozens of palace maids in Kunyi Palace who are taking care of Huayue Ballad. Jiang Weibai was also there.

At this time, Jiang Weibai was more than five months pregnant.

"King Qingping and Guang'an Hou are back, and they are still taking their newborn child with them." Someone reported that the ministers immediately looked at each other. Some were happy, and some frowned slightly, but no matter what kind of thoughts they had, Chu Zihou had already strode in.

The ministers hurriedly nodded to him.

And Shen Xizhen also walked in slowly with the child in his arms.

Originally, Chu Zihou wanted to hold the child, but Shen Xizhen took into account the face of his manly husband and insisted on not letting him hold it, so he walked in empty-handed.

Watching the return of these two legendary characters who are loved by the people of Xi Kingdom. Everyone's hearts have been set up a lot. At least, even if Emperor Guangxuan has three longs and two shorts, there are still two of them. As long as the two of them are still there, Xi Guo doesn't have to worry about not having a peaceful life.

"Has the emperor never woken up?" Chu Zihou asked softly, walking up to Emperor Guangxuan and looking at him carefully.

"Back to King Qingping. The emperor has been in a coma. Someone replied.

Chu Zihou glanced back at Shen Xizhen. wanted to see what Shen Xizhen thought about this, but Shen Xizhen just smiled and didn't say anything else, and Chu Zihou understood what she meant-she told him not to reveal his inner thoughts, now is not the time.

Therefore, Chu Zihou said: "I understand, what did the imperial doctor say? ”

"The imperial doctor couldn't say the cause of the disease, only that it looked like an evil spirit."

"Did you invite a wizard to exorcise evil spirits?" Chu Zihou asked again.

"Please, all the most powerful wizards in the Xi Kingdom are invited. But it still hasn't improved. ”

Chu Zihou turned his head to look at Emperor Guangxuan lying on the bed, and the others couldn't see his expression clearly at the moment. But Shen Xizhen knew that his heart was also at war with heaven and man at the moment.

That's right, Chu Zihou's heart is also struggling, indeed, now is undoubtedly a very favorable time for him, but he doesn't have the slightest sense of glory, since ancient times, heroes don't fight opponents who have no ability to fight back, so he doesn't disdain to fight against Emperor Guangxuan at this moment.

So he stood up: "I know, I'll go back to the prince's mansion first, and I'll wait for the emperor with you at night." ”

"Yes." The ministers replied in unison.

Chu Zihou took the child from Shen Xizhen's arms, and the three of them left the palace together.

"Sure enough, he is an extraordinary person, and even his attitude and method of dealing with problems are so unconventional." The ministers could not help but admire their steadfastness from the bottom of their hearts.

On the way back to the prince's mansion, Shen Xizhen stretched out his hand and put his arm around Chu Zihou's waist and said, "Husband, there is something I only tell you now, I hope you don't get angry." ”

"What's the matter? Just say it, I'm not angry. Chu Zihou had a vague premonition that something was wrong.

In normal times, Shen Xizhen has never hidden it from him, and if it will hide it from him, it must be a relatively big and sensitive matter.

"Queen Mother Gina, she ...... Passed away last month. Shen Xizhen tried to speak in the softest tone possible.

The body holding it suddenly stiffened.

Shen Xizhen hurriedly looked up at him: "At that time, you were still on a mission on the side of the Gongguo, I don't want you to be too sad because of this......"

Chu Zihou let out a long sigh.

In fact, he already had this premonition, but because no one told him the truth, he also had a fluke mentality, thinking that he would still be able to see his mother when he got home.

But in the end, I still left regrets.

Tears flowed down like a river that had burst its banks.

Shen Xizhen reached out and stroked his heart, and said softly, "I know your heart will hurt, so let's cry happily." ”

Chu Zihou hugged her and cried bitterly.

His cry woke the child.

Shen Xizhen hurriedly coaxed the child to go.

When they arrived at the prince's mansion, Xiang'er and Pepper greeted them.

And Chu Zihou had already wiped away his tears and walked inside in great strides.

He walked to Queen Gina's room and knelt down with a thud, tears streaming down his face again.

Nearly 20 years of nurturing grace, for him to stay alone in the empty house in northern Xinjiang for 18 years, such a great mother, but he left before he had time to repay her filial piety, and he walked so desolately.

He couldn't hold back the guilt in his heart and cried.

Shen Xizhen came to his side, knelt there with him, held his hand tightly, and said nothing.

She waited for him to slowly calm down.

But after Chu Zihou cried bitterly, he stood up and said to Shen Xizhen: "Let's go, let's go to the grave of my mother and put incense on it." ”

"Okay." Shen Xizhen immediately took a carriage with Chu Zihou to the cemetery of Empress Dowager Gina.

After burning incense and worshipping, Chu Zihou held Shen Xizhen's hand and said, "You are still in confinement, I will take you around like this, will you hate me?" ”

Shen Xizhen shook his head.

"Let's go, I'll carry you down the mountain." Chu Zihou said.

Without waiting for Shen Xizhen to agree, he carried her on his back.

Shen Xizhen was not polite to him, and lay on his generous back with peace of mind, and he carried him down to the foot of the mountain. (To be continued......)
