Nalan Jinxiu and Mu Li hurriedly hurriedly caught up with Lige and his party, and also saw Lu Xiuya, who came to meet them in person.

Lu Xiuya hadn't changed much compared to a few years ago, and he was also shocked when he saw the body of Nalan Jinxiu with the king of Zhenbei. He obviously didn't recognize that she was the person Ji Hongye had asked to marry.

He bowed to the king of Zhenbei, and then asked him to find the coffin. He was a loyal and upright man, hated those high-ranking and powerful people in Jinling, and painfully suppressed the king of the north to sacrifice his life for the country.

"I rushed here after receiving the letter from the prince, but I didn't expect it to be a step too late. When he saw Nalan Jinxiu's face, but he was obviously in charge, he asked, "What do you call the little brother?"

Nalan Jinxiu saluted him with his hand, and said in a dumb voice: "General Lu just call me Bai Jin." ”

"I don't know what position you hold in the Xuanjia Army?"

"Medic. ”

Lu Xiuya felt a little strange, he had never heard that a military doctor could be the principal.

The steward of the Zhenbei Palace, seeing his hesitation, explained: "This is the prince's righteous son. ”

Lu Xiuya's eyes on her were a little different. The king of Zhenbei is heroic by nature, and the people he likes to make friends with are all decisive generals on the battlefield. I didn't expect this weak young man to win his favor.

He saw that Nalan Jinxiu's eyes were red and swollen, and he was obviously crying a lot just now, so he comforted: "The revenge of the prince will be avenged sooner or later, and you shouldn't be too sad." ”

The Zhenbei Wangfu is a loyal martyr, and the King of Zhenbei has been fighting for the Northern Xinjiang and Daning all his life, but in the end he ended up with such a fate, and he was not angry in his heart.

Nalan Jinxiu saluted him again, and said lightly: "Now that the northern Xinjiang is in turmoil, General Lu should go back to Pengcheng first! ”

"Why? aren't you going with us?"

"I'm going to join my brother. ”

Lu Xiuya had a particularly good impression of her in his heart. At this time, it is necessary to stay in this place of right and wrong, which can test people's hearts the most, and it seems that the vision of King Zhenbei is indeed not bad.

At this time, Lige came over, and she was still holding Xu Liange in her arms. was a person with a strong personality, but his eyes were red at this time. She looked at Nalan Jinxiu and had a lot to say, but she could only endure it because of the people around her.

Nalan Jinxiu saluted her and said, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, take care." ”

Lige knew that her trip must be extremely difficult, and besides, she was just an ordinary woman and should not bear so much. But the road was chosen by herself, if she didn't have a love song to take care of, she would probably go to Xu Jince.

"You also take care and take care of yourself. ”

There are not many people here who know her original identity, and Nalan Jinxiu was afraid that if she talked too much, she would show her feet, so she turned around and got on the horse and left with Mu Li.

Xu Jince was in Pingcheng, and now most of the northern Xinjiang has fallen into the hands of the enemy, and only the area south of Pingcheng is still in the hands of the Xuanjia Army.

If the news from here wants to get through, it will be even more difficult, and she must rush to Pingcheng as soon as possible to tell her brother the news of her father's death.

Nalan Jinxiu and Mu Li traveled all the way, and it was midnight when they arrived in Pingcheng. Pingcheng was digging trenches, Xu Jince personally went to supervise the work, and when he heard that his subordinates were coming, he rushed back non-stop.

Nalan Jinxiu is still dressed in green clothes, because of the war, there are Beiyan people and Liukou everywhere, and they can only take small roads. The road was dusty, and Rao was no matter how clean she usually was, she looked embarrassed at this time.

Xu Jince didn't know the situation in Chiyang City, and he didn't know why she came over, looking at her appearance, he felt very bad in his heart, so he asked, "What are you doing here?"

Nalan Jinxiu shook his head: "Let's go in and talk!"

"Brother, my father is dead. ”

Xu Jince's body shook for a moment, he barely stood firm on the table, and asked, "What did you just say?"

Nalan Jinxiu knew that he had heard it clearly, and she suddenly felt very sad in her heart, and she couldn't say a word. I could only look at Xu Jince, watching without blinking.

Xu Jince closed his eyes and was silent for a long time before swallowing the bloody breath in his mouth and said, "What's the matter?"

Nalan Jinxiu told him what had happened.

Xu Jince suddenly sneered, and his voice was desolate: "What do they want to do, to destroy my northern frontier in the world?"

Nalan Jinxiu looked at his pale face for a while, she held his crumbling body, and whispered, "Brother......"

Xu Jince saw her crying, reached out to wipe her tears, wiped herself and cried. As soon as he cried, Nalan Jinxiu panicked.

It is said that men don't flick when they have tears, especially people like Xu Jince, if it is not when it is painful, it is impossible for him to cry. Because he was born proud, he thought that crying was the act of the weak.

Xu Jince didn't move much when he cried, but his shoulders were shaking violently, which showed that his mood fluctuated greatly.

Mu Li was still guarding the door, listening to the crying in the house, and his heart was also in pain. He has a very special affection for Beijiang and Zhenbei Wangfu, and now that it has become like this, he is naturally sad.

When they were rushing to Pingcheng, the lord of the county cried once, and she said, "If my father had not given me the soft hedgehog armor, those arrows would not have hurt him." ”

He was very distressed at that time, and he thought that she might remember this incident for the rest of her life. She has always had a clear distinction between love and hate, and the Zhenbei Mansion is so difficult now, it is impossible for her to leave.

They once said that they wanted to travel all over the famous mountains and rivers, and it could only be a good wish. He wanted to take her away from the land of right and wrong, but he wanted to respect her mind even more, so he could only do his best to protect her.

Xu Jince finished crying and wiped away his tears with his sleeve. His eyes were still red, but there was no emotion in his demeanor. For a man his age, crying is a particularly shameful thing.

"Where have everyone else gone?"

"Father should have had a foresign before the accident, and he had already settled them and went to Pengcheng. It was Lu Xiuya who picked it up personally, so it should be fine. ”

Xu Jince nodded, then turned his gaze to her again, and his tone was a little stern: "Even if the situation is urgent, you just asked Mu Li to come over and inform me, why do you have to come here in person? Do you know how chaotic Northern Xinjiang is now?"

"I know. Nalan Jinxiu was also very sad in her heart, she felt some sympathy for him, but she also knew that he didn't need it, so she didn't dare to show it at all. I could only sniff and say in a dumb voice, "I'm a little worried about you." ”

Xu Jince's originally stern expression softened a lot in an instant. He reached out and touched the top of her head, and whispered, "Have a good rest tonight, and go to Pengcheng tomorrow." ”

"I don't!" Nalan Jinxiu's attitude was also very resolute.

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to stay here. ”

"There's a lot of tough battles to be fought here, and every day is going to be dangerous, so you don't fit to stay here. ”

Nalan Jinxiu's nose was sore, she couldn't control her tears, she choked up and said, "Father is gone, and you don't even have anyone close to you." ”

"I need you all to be well. Xu Jince wiped her tears with his hands and coaxed: "Liange is still young, and she also needs someone to take care of her, you go back and help Lige! ”

"Pengcheng didn't fight, and Lige has enough ability to protect Liange. ”

Xu Jince saw her expression and knew that it was useless for him to say more. He also watched his sister grow up when she was a child, and of course he learned how stubborn her temperament was. Especially since he came back from Jinling, he has been very stubborn.

"I'm going to be distracted if you stay here. Xu Jince decided to convince her from a different angle, but in fact, he just said it casually, and most of the time he felt that it was useless.

"I have Mu Li, and I have Butterfly Shadow, and I don't need to be protected by others at all. When Nalan Jinxiu said this, he raised his chin with some pride: "Didn't my father teach me the art of war, just hoping that one day I could assist my brother?"

"You're a woman after all, and you don't have to shoulder some responsibilities. It's too heavy......"

Xu Jince's eyes were a little dazed. The education he received since he was a child was to constantly tell himself that he was in danger of the safety of northern Xinjiang and that he should always put his personal feelings behind. He learned this from his father.

But now he began to question whether what he had always believed in was right? Northern Xinjiang was now in a deep predicament, not to mention other countries, even Daning refused to help. It seems that the sky is going to kill him in the north and kill him in the north of the palace.

Is it correct that he has always believed in being loyal to Daning, and that Northern Xinjiang is an inseparable part of Daning? He doubted and doubted what his father believed in all his life, but in fact it only showed that he was foolish and loyal.

"It is precisely because of the heaviness that someone has to share it. Since I am the daughter of the king of Zhenbei, I should bear the corresponding responsibility. ”

When Nalan Jinxiu said this, his attitude was very firm, and there was an undoubted attitude in his eyes. This made Xu Jince feel a shock in his heart, and he saw his father's shadow in her.

He remembered that when he was nine years old, he beat the child of a common man in northern Xinjiang. In fact, he was not wrong, and his father punished him anyway.

He remembered what his father said at the time: "I know that you have been wronged, but you must remember that you are the son of the prince of Zhengbei, and you should be generous enough to your subjects." ”

My father's indisputable appearance at that time was exactly the same as she was at this time. He couldn't help but ask, "You already know, right?"

Nalan Jinxiu knew what he was referring to, she nodded, she wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to express it.

"I know that one day my father will tell you. ”

Xu Jince wanted to make her identity public before, but King Zhenbei stopped him, saying that the time was not ripe. At that time, he was thinking that his body would never be buried, and she would have to know sooner or later.

"Since my brother also knows about this, then don't stop me again. ”

Xu Jince reached out and patted her on the shoulder, and finally smiled, and said, "Okay, our brothers and sisters will drive these invaders out of the northern frontier together." ”

Xu Jince didn't know that the sentence he said casually now had made Nalan Jinxiu pay for many years......
