"We can't leave here this time, and if we do, it's a dead end." Shen Xizhen said solemnly.

"Why do you say that?" Shen Xibin asked her.

"First, there are a lot of us, once we go out, we will definitely be able to attract the attention of others, and secondly, Emperor Guangxuan has the experience of the last time, and this time we will definitely strengthen the management of border gates, so it is more difficult for us to leave the country than to ascend to the sky." Shen Xizhen explained.

Indeed it is.

Du Qiniang was full of guilt, and hurriedly said: "Why don't you leave in batches, leave me alone, I'm old anyway, and I won't be useful anywhere, so I won't drag everyone down." ”

Shen Xizhen immediately clasped Du Qiniang's hand and said, "Mother, what are you talking about?" How could we leave you alone? Even if a few of us leave in batches, we won't be able to leave Xi Kingdom, so it's better not to leave, and we can stay together for one more day. ”

Du Qiniang was very moved, reached out and hugged Shen Xizhen's shoulder, and sighed softly.

The handover of affairs on the side of the tribute country was quickly completed, and the ceremony of celebrating the country was held as scheduled.

On that day, not only did the people of the entire Xi Kingdom celebrate together, but some neighboring countries that intend to maintain friendly exchanges with the Xi Kingdom have sent people to celebrate, including Ye Zhiqiu, the crown prince of the World Kingdom.

He finally found a reason to come, but he was told that Guang'anhou's family had mysteriously disappeared.

The mysterious disappearance is in his understanding that life and death are uncertain, so he is very anxious, but he doesn't know where to start, so he quietly asks the people around him at the celebration.

However, everyone seems to be very taboo about this, and no one dares to say it. This deepened his anxiety even more.

Although everyone refused to tell him the truth, he could also guess that this matter was related to Emperor Guangxuan, so he felt that Shen Xizhen and the others did not leave the Xi Kingdom. Rather, they were hiding somewhere, or they had been killed.

I wanted to come to see her, but I didn't expect it to be such a result, and he had to be saddened.

After staying in Xi for two days, he returned to China.

After the celebration ceremony, the contradictions on the side of the original tribute country were also immediately revealed.

After all, no one wants to live under the rule of the king who destroyed their own country, so the reaction of the local people is very fierce. Some even preferred to die rather than listen to the officials of the Xi Kingdom, and for a while, there were rumors of uprisings in various places.

These tribute people, who were dominated by the atmosphere of the dead country, became more and more noisy, and later they even openly shot and killed the officials of the Xi Kingdom. As a result, the other officials refused to be transferred there.

Emperor Guangxuan was very distressed, and he had to spend a lot of time every day to discuss with his ministers how to deal with it.

The right prime minister said: "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and we should not fight with them at this time." It is better to immediately introduce some measures to benefit the people. Let them slowly develop a sense of belonging, so that they will not make trouble after a long time. ”

"Yes, and the measures we give to benefit the people must be better than those of the original tribute country, so that they will willingly belong to us." Prime Minister Zuo continued.

Emperor Guangxuan stroked his forehead and asked, "Then have you come up with any way to benefit the people?" ”

"First, reducing taxes is the most powerful. Second, give them some preferential measures, such as reducing tuition fees. 3. Support needy households. Fourth, send additional troops over. Let them know that if you make any more trouble, I'll be tough. ”

"Uh-huh." Emperor Guangxuan nodded approvingly, and immediately ordered the relevant departments to implement it.

This finally eliminated most people's resentment.

The people of the original tribute country slowly accepted this fact.

Even if I don't want to accept it in my heart. But since the country is dead and has no ability to turn over, it has to accept the facts.

The matter finally calmed down slowly, but Emperor Guangxuan's heart was not calm at all, because the secret reconnaissance team he sent searched all corners of the Xi Kingdom and found no trace of Shen Xizhen and them.

"Could it be that the Mysterious Daoist took them away?" One of the ministers was suspicious.

"It's also possible, if he really took them away, then we can't find them no matter how we look for them." Another minister said.

The crowd was silent.

…………………….

In order to get an occasional glimpse of the sun, the people in the house take turns to walk outside the house, but usually in the morning. Because the sun has just risen at this time, not only is the air fresh and not easy to be discovered, after all, if people outside want to come to this mountain, it will take at least a few hours, even if it is slightly dawn, it is impossible to arrive so early, so it is still very safe to come out and meet the morning light.

That night, in the room exclusive to Chu Zihou and Shen Xizhen in the organ house, Chu Zihou asked Shen Xizhen softly: "Have you completed the mission you crossed over?" ”

Shen Xizhen smiled and leaned into his arms and said, "It's almost, but it's still a long way from a hundred points." ”

Chu Zihou hugged her tightly, lowered his head and said in her ear, "Then I hope you get a hundred points later." ”

Shen Xizhen suddenly realized that with the passage of time, they only had fifteen years to get along now. Her eyes immediately showed reluctance and sadness.

By then, their children would all be fifteen years old.

It dawned on her that they hadn't named the child yet.

"What's the name of our child?" Shen Xizhen asked Chu Zihou.

"It's called Chu Lingen, in order to thank fate for letting me meet you." Chu Zihou said.

Shen Xizhen was very moved when he heard it, he always put her feelings first, smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”

Chu Zihou buried his head in her black hair, smelling the good smell in her hair, and really wanted to hold her all the time like this, never separated.

"You're not feeling any sick now, are you?" After a long time, Chu Zihou asked softly.

Now that more than a month has passed since Shen Xizhen gave birth to a child, he can't help it a little.

Shen Xizhen immediately understood what he meant, and his face suddenly turned red.

"Well, it's been restored." Shen Xizhen said in a low voice.

Chu Zihou was overjoyed and pressed her on the bed, and the warm kiss fell on her forehead, red lips, collarbones, and the fullness of her chest.

That familiar feeling returned, and Shen Xizhen gently hugged his neck.

"I'll be gentle." Chu Zihou kissed her earlobe and said.

The whisper made her heart palpitate, and she buried her head in his chest shyly.

Chu Zihou gently took off her clothes, looked at her breasts that had become fuller because of childbirth, and suddenly felt a surge of blood surging down from the top of his head, and he immediately gently covered her body, slowly merging with her in her tender eyes. (To be continued......)
