Chapter 662: The Heart Returns

King Wu Yan really didn't know that Wang Xiao didn't plan to break through again.

In his opinion, the Chu army's escape to Dezhou City was no different from being in the Snow Shelter, that is, the city was taller, but it was still surrounded by his own army anyway.

It was a pity that he lost Qi Renfeng and 10,000 horses, but it was not more sad than Uncle Wu's death.

In short, this trip blamed Li Baibo for having a bad idea.

The Great Rui Dynasty did this and looked forward to the future, and there were too many scholars, otherwise the Chu Dynasty might have been wiped out long ago.

Thinking of Tang Xiaoshuang being released from the city by Wang Xiao for no reason...... Although Wu Yan did not suspect Li Baibo of colluding with Wang Xiao, he still decided not to listen to Li Baibo again. Genius)

Because of the first battle in Texas, the morale of the Swiss army was much lower, so he ordered a two-day rest, and at the same time sent Wu Tong to lead the right wing of the old battalion to take Linqing Caocang first.

Li Baibo only rested for more than an hour, and as soon as he heard the military order at dawn, he came to vigorously oppose it.

"Wu Shuai, let me tell you the truth. This year, the grain from Jiangnan has really arrived in Texas. I asked the ghost loach to trick you into going to Linqing, and let them use the sediment to wrap the grain out, but in fact, the grain is still in Dezhou City......

Now that Wang Xiao and the Chu army are in Dezhou, and there is plenty of food and grass, we must immediately attack the city with all our strength, and we must not give them time to rest, otherwise it will be difficult to capture the city......

It was wrong for me to lie to you before, but this time what I said is true. Our army is not as good as the other party's food and grass, and a stalemate is not a solution, otherwise there will be no shortage of people and horses, and there will be no food and grass......"

Li Baibo persuaded until his throat smoked, and King Wu Yan only had one sentence: "Invite Li Junshi out, don't let him get close to Ben Shuai's big tent again!" ”

Yesterday's hard fighting lasted from early morning to late at night, and the soldiers were already exhausted, but today the commander ordered a rest and recuperation, and the entire Swiss army camp no longer moved.

Inside and outside the city of Texas, in addition to the traces left on the battlefield that have not been cleaned up, it can also be called peaceful.

This situation was expected by Wang Xiao.

"Rest assured, the rebels will not attack the city again in a day or two."

Making this judgment, Wang Xiao talked with the two brothers for another morning, discussing the layout of Texas' city defense, the next strategic planning and many other things.

From the beginning of the layout, to last night's battle, to the post-war settlement. He neither slept nor ate, and when he came out, he leaned against the wall and yawned, thinking...... Who should I meet first?

Oh, let's go see Daddy first.

Walking to the house where Wang Kang was, I heard that Wang Kang was still sleeping, Wang Xiao was about to leave, but he heard a sentence from the house: "Come in." ”

This house is not very spacious, it is a temporary rented house, which is naturally not comparable to the environment of the Wang family, and the beds and trousers are also very bad. If it weren't for the hardships he suffered along the way, Wang Kang would definitely not be able to get used to it.

At this time, he sat on the bed, leaning on his body, his half-white hair was not combed, and he looked a little embarrassed.

"After going for so long, you still know to come back." The first sentence is to reprimand with a straight face.

Wang Xiao also knew that he was afraid that he would never want to hear any good words from his mouth in his life, this era pays attention to strict fathers, Wang Kang is obviously deeply poisoned by this kind of thinking, no matter what he thinks in his heart, he has to reprimand a few words.

Of course, Wang Xiao didn't care about this, smiled and said: "The child is outside, and he misses his father very much." ”

"Don't give the old man a sloppy eye." Wang Kang really scolded again, "You asked the boss to do this time, right?" Fengtianzi went south, you can figure it out! ”

Wang Xiao didn't think that Wang Kang could have any opinions, and when he heard the words, he was at a loss again, and wanted to be vague.

Wang Kang let out a long sigh and said: "The ancestral career of my Wang family is in the capital, and I have been protected by the imperial court for several generations, living and working in peace and contentment, enjoying leisure and wealth......

You children are older and have your own ideas for doing things. The old man can't understand what you want to do, but, the prince of heaven and earth, the general order must not be disordered, you ...... Do it yourself. ”

After saying that, he took a deep look at the third son in front of him, and because he saw that his black eyes were dark, he originally wanted to say something to continue, but he took it back, waved his hand, and said, "Go ahead." ”

That is, these two words, there is no early rest or anything like that. Wang Xiao could still feel a little concerned, bowed, and withdrew.

Before leaving the house, he heard Wang Kang muttering to himself when he was lying back on the futon: "I was the most annoying and deviant, but I ended up like this one by one." ”

Wang Xiao: "......"

He originally thought that what Wang Kang was going to say was nothing more than how much property and how much silver the Wang family had in the capital, and you rebels were messing around, causing the old man to live in such a dilapidated place or something.

The old man's vision is probably only able to do business in the capital, and he can do it well. Further up the politics of the court, the world's major events, he can't understand it, and it's too late to learn when he's older.

However, the old man has his own set of ideas and living habits.

Wang Xiao originally felt that he had nothing to be sorry for Wang Kang, if it weren't for himself, even if this old man didn't die in the capital, he would have to be torn off a layer of skin when he turned around and asked for food from the thieves. But now he found that he had broken Wang Kang's concept and forced Wang Kang to live according to his advanced habits......

An arrogant modern man forcibly forced an ancient old man to live with a different concept, and thought he was doing it for his good.

And Wang Kang didn't know how to resist, so he could only reprimand him again and again, and he himself knew that these reprimands were useless.

At the same time, because of these three sons, he has also been enduring these ideas and habits being broken again and again.

In other words, ...... No worries.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly.

In addition to telling himself that he would "do better in the future", he had some other feelings.

Although Wang Kang didn't impress him today, and he didn't have any warm words, this kind of strict paternalistic discipline and his uneasy because of himself...... All of this makes people feel like home.

"yes, I'm home."

Although Dezhou City is not the capital, although there is no Wang family, Yingfu, and princess mansion here, the family is here, and they are indeed home.

So the wry smile on Wang Xiao's face slowly turned into a relaxed smile.

Then, when he stepped out of the mansion, he saw Qin Xiaozhu sitting on the threshold.

The light armor on her body had not yet been removed, and a large long knife was placed on the ground, and her figure looked a little tired.

Wang Xiao was a little distressed, so he stood there and looked at her quietly.

After a while, Qin Xiaozhu turned her head and saw Wang Xiao, her eyes were extremely complicated, there were surprises, misses, and some sadness......

Wang Xiao walked over and sat down beside her.

"Old General Qin......"

"Actually, I thought you and your grandfather were both ...... It's gone. Qin Xiaozhu said in a low voice: "These days, I look forward to your coming back every day, but in my heart, I have never been able to break this thought, I thought ...... Thought you were all gone......"

When she said this, she turned her head to look at Wang Xiao, her eyes were shining, there were tears, but there seemed to be something else.

"So, I'm really surprised to have you back."

The word surprise came out, but she cried loudly.

"Uh......h Woo...... You're finally back...... Whining...... Grandfather...... Wang laughed......"

She was sad because she finally got the news of Qin Chengye's death, and because all the grievances and sufferings of these days were released in an instant, so she cried very loudly......

In the house, Wang Kang turned over and stood up again, scratching his hair even more, his unfilial son was provoking the girl again, they were all people who were horses, and they had no sense of proportion at all!

But Wang Kang didn't go out to scold or whatever, so he had to cover his ears with a pillow.

Outside the house, Wang Xiao hugged Qin Xiaozhu, let her cry for a long, long time, and let her wipe her tears and snot on herself, and the clothes on her shoulders were wet.

"You lean over here, your fourth uncle rubbed his snot on my shoulder earlier......

The two hugged very tightly, and after a long time, Qin Xiaozhu stopped crying, and rubbed against Wang Xiao's shoulder for a while before standing up, and the whole person was sharp again.

"Let's go," she took Wang Xiao's hand and said naturally, "Let's go see Chunning." ”

The Dezhou Mansion has been requisitioned and temporarily used as the foothold of the King of Qi.

Wang Xiao was led by Qin Xiaozhu, and when he entered the mansion, he walked towards the house where Chunning was.

It stands to reason that he should go to meet King Qi first, and Empress Xu and the Queen Mother also want to meet him...... It stands to reason that it would not be proper for Qin Xiaozhu to bring him over like this.

But Tang Zhongyuan's capture of the capital is the most unreasonable thing in the world today, and in this case, not too many people can take care of these anymore.

Chunning knew that Wang Xiao was tired at this time, so he directly blocked these summons, and said to Queen Xu and the Queen Mother that it would not be too late to see each other in two days. In short, she has a lot of weight to speak now...... Idea: The fastest /l/z/w//o/m on the mobile phone

Wang Xiao and Qin Xiaozhu walked through the corridor and entered the hall, but saw that there were not only Chunning inside, but also Ying'er and Qian Duoduo.

Hearing the door open and the three women raised their heads at the same time, Wang Xiao was slightly ...... Helpless.

This is obviously a little different from the scene he imagined to return home, he originally thought that when he came back to see Ying'er or Qian Duoduo, he must have kissed and hugged him and lifted him high or something.

But at this time, a few eyes looked at each other, which was indeed a little embarrassing.

Ying'er and Qian Duoduo were looking forward to Wang Xiao's return, if it weren't for the current scene, they would have jumped into his arms and cried for a while.

But right now, in front of Chunning, they didn't dare to show it, so they had to look at Wang Xiao with eyes full of joy......

Chunning invited them all over, not to embarrass Wang Xiao, her idea was very simple

The horse has just returned, and there are many things to do, and it is not convenient to see Ying'er or Qian Duoduo, so let them see it first, so they can settle down. On the other hand, if the colt comes back, it will be on Ying'er or Qian Duoduo's side first...... She, the princess, will inevitably be pointed at. Moreover, according to the usual behavior of the horse, it is likely that such a thing will be done.

"My husband is back." Chunning smiled, but first moved his gaze to Qin Xiaozhu and said to her, "Look at you, you are still wearing armor, go to my side and find two light clothes to change into." ”

With that, Laqin Xiaozhu walked towards the door.

Behind them, Gan Tang wrinkled his nose very dissatisfied, and finally followed......

Ying'er and Qian Duoduo stood there, looking at Wang Xiao with blank eyes, as if they wanted to move, glanced at each other, and lowered their heads again.

Wang Xiao smiled a little self-deprecatingly, stepped forward, and took the two of them into his arms.

"Young Master...... Young master, ......" Ying'er finally cried out and buried her head in Wang Xiao's arms.

Qian Duoduo didn't dare to call "Xiaolang" in front of Ying'er, so she had to blush, and there were tears in her eyes......

In short, on this day, too many people hugged Wang Xiao and cried.

Later, Chunning came back here, Qin Xiaozhu took Ying'er and Qian Duoduo to rest, Wang Xiao looked down and saw that there were tears on his shoulders, and couldn't help laughing: "I'm afraid this dress weighs three catties......"

That being said, he actually felt warm.

Over there, Gan Tang twisted a hot towel and wiped Wang Xiao's face, Chun Ning thought about it, but said, "My husband hasn't worshiped me three times." ”

Wang Xiao is back, there are many things she wants to say and ask, but in the end...... After thinking about it, it started with the words when I first got married.

"I owe it first." Wang smiled and responded.

The two are actually not acquainted, and they separated soon after they got married. At this time, I finally got back some of the feelings I had when I first got married, and we both felt a little funny.

Next, Wang Xiao drank a bowl of porridge, and Gan Tang prepared hot water for him to take a bath, he never had to be served by anyone for this kind of thing, so Chunning set up a stool behind the screen and sat upright.

"I don't think I took a shower in more than two months." Starting from Wang Xiao's words, the two talked with each other.

It's more about the situation in the capital after Wang Xiao left, Chunning also wants to know what happened to Wang Xiao in Liaodong, but the couple both know that it is more important to communicate the situation in the customs first......

The two discussed some things quite seriously, Chunning listened to Wang Xiao's voice behind him, and occasionally heard the sound of water, feeling that this was the most stable day since leaving Beijing.

As he spoke, after a certain sentence, there was no response behind the screen.

Chun Ning stood up with some confusion, and cautiously glanced behind the screen, only to see that Wang Xiaotou was already asleep leaning against the barrel......

She stood like this for a while, still dignified and demure on the surface, but in her heart she was in trouble.

"What can I do?"
