Xiang Hongxi stood on the imperial city of Nanxi Pingcheng, looking at the Dongyu army searching for the Nanxi Chen clan in the palace, he felt a lot of emotion, this battle was finally over, he won, he really won.

When he and Jiang Bangfeng rushed to Shaoguan, Jiang Zhennan had already died, but Jiang Zhennan also beat the Nanxi army in Shaoguan not lightly, and the appearance of him and Jiang Bangfeng caught the Nanxi army by surprise, and they took Shaoguan in one go.

After he saw that Dongyu's morale was high, he persuaded Jiang Bangfeng to continue to go south, directly approaching Nanxi Pingcheng, along the way, the defenders of Nanxi City either surrendered, or abandoned the city and ran away, almost they attacked Nanxi Pingcheng, the capital of Nanxi without much effort.

His lifelong dream was finally completed, and Xiang Hongxi's heart was excited and excited at this moment, but at the same time he was deeply sad. This battle was won beautifully, and there were no regrets in this life, but Wu Chengan was thrown in the Dongjiang River, and Wu Chengan was still blowing a cold wind on the river, waiting to go to the battlefield to establish meritorious deeds, but this Nanxi was destroyed, and he didn't know it yet.

This time he won a complete victory, Wu Chengan missed all the exploits perfectly, and Jiang Zhennan died in Shaoguan again, how should he follow Xiang Hongxuan to restore his life? How will Wu Chengan tell Xiang Hong about this battle?

Thinking of this, Xiang Hongxi regretted his impulsiveness a little, he should have thought more thoroughly, the dream has come true, but if Xiang Hongxuan knows that he won this battle, he is afraid that he will be like King Xian and King Qing in the future, and he will be panicked all day long.

Suddenly, a soldier walked up to the city wall, he came to Xiang Hongxi's side, and whispered: "Lord Supervisor, there is a noble lady of Nanxi who wants to see you." ”

Xiang Hongxi frowned, what Nanxi noblewoman, Nanxi has destroyed the country, isn't that a captive?

"Presumptuous, a woman who destroys the country, why do you come to see this king."

Seeing that Xiang Hongxi was a little displeased, Xiao Bing approached him a little closer, and whispered again: "Your Highness, this woman said that there is a treasure for you." ”

Xiang Hongxi raised his eyebrows, since ancient times, when the city was broken, the nobles were all taking money and jewelry to save their lives, this is the custom, do not take nothing. In such a time of chaos, a woman can still persuade the enemy to ask for a meeting, and it seems that the family is quite rich.

"When nightfall comes, you will quietly bring the woman to the king's tent."

.....................................................................................................................

Ling Xi got up excitedly, she walked quickly to Aunt Yan's side, and asked eagerly, "Is Nanxi Kingdom really destroyed?" ”

"Yes, Queen Mother, just now the slave maid went to the Feiyu Hall to deliver pastries to His Majesty, and I saw that Uncle Guo was preparing to meet His Majesty, and Uncle Guo told the slave maid." Aunt Yan whispered.

Ling Xi thought that Xiang Hongxuan had finally gotten what he wanted, he should be very happy, but soon she felt uneasy in her heart, in the past, Xiang Hongxuan would tell Ling Xi as soon as possible, but Nanxi was destroyed and Ling Zhu returned

Chao, Xiang Hongxuan didn't tell her, what was Xiang Hongxuan worried about?

"Did my brother say, when will An Guohou return to the court?"

Ling Xi walked outside the house, it was already the beginning of April, and I was afraid that when Jiang Zhennan came back, it would be summer. After this battle, even if Jiang Zhennan doesn't retire, he won't go to the battlefield again, Ling Xi thinks so.

Aunt Yan looked at Ling Xi with a look of expectation, she lowered her head silently, and said in a low voice: "Queen Mother, please mourn, the Marquis of Anguo died in the battle of Shaoguan." ”

As soon as Aunt Yan's words fell, Ling Xi suddenly felt that the sky was dark, and with a bang, she fainted outside the door, and Aunt Yan immediately walked to Ling Xi's side, picked up Ling Xi, and shouted.

Ling Xi only felt that her head was a little heavy, and her body seemed to be out of control, unable to move. It's pitch black all around, what's wrong with her? She seemed to remember what Aunt Yan said, Jiang Zhennan died, died on the battlefield of Nanxi, Ling Xi's heart was colic, she was very uncomfortable, really uncomfortable.

She vaguely heard someone talking in her ears, but she couldn't hear what they were saying, and suddenly she seemed to hear Xiang Hongxuan's voice, and there were bursts of heat in her palms, and there was a clear call to Xiang Hongxuan in her ears.

Ling Xi slowly opened her eyes, Xiang Hongxuan was sitting in front of her bed, holding one of Ling Xi's hands tightly, and Xiang Hongxuan looked at Ling Xi with a smirk like a child.

"Queen, you finally woke up, scared to death."

When the palace people in the house saw that Ling Xi had woken up, they knelt down one after another, and said in unison, "Congratulations to the queen mother." ”

Ling Xi frowned, and looked at Xiang Hongxuan in confusion, the news of Jiang Zhennan's death was not a happy event. Aunt Yan seemed to see Ling Xi's doubts, she immediately stepped forward and said, "Queen Mother, you are happy, the imperial doctor has just checked your pulse, and you are already 2 months pregnant." ”

Xiang Hongxuan waved his hand, and the palace people in the house all got up, and he said happily: "The palace people of Qingfeng Yuan have worked hard to take care of the queen, and each of them will be rewarded with ten taels of silver." ”

Ling Xi subconsciously stroked her belly with her hand, she looked at Xiang Hongxuan again, as if she didn't believe Aunt Yan's words, Xiang Hongxuan's hand also covered the back of Ling Xi's hand, and he said softly: "Queen, it's really careless, I don't know if I'm pregnant, and why did the queen faint outside the house today?" ”

Xiang Hongxuan's words made Ling Xi a little difficult to answer, how should she tell him, saying that she knew about Jiang Zhennan's death and was so frightened that she fainted?

"Your Majesty, the queen mother is a little stuffy this afternoon, so I want to go to the courtyard for a walk, but as soon as I step out of the door, I fainted. Aunt Yan hurriedly explained. Aunt Yan saw that Xiang Hongxuan didn't ask, and the big stone in her heart finally landed, but she looked at Ling Xi, who was lying on the bed, a little sick, and her face was filled with a trace of sadness.

"Your Majesty, the concubines are fine, women who have just become pregnant are like this, and the concubines will be fine after a few days of recuperation." Ling Xi tried hard to get up, and it was best to get out of bed and walk a few steps to prove that she was true

The body is fine.

As soon as Aunt Yan came to Ling Xi's bed with the decoction, one of her hands immediately pressed the quilt on a corner of Ling Xi's body, and she said softly: "Queen Mother, the imperial doctor said that you have to recuperate for a few days." ”

Xiang Hongxuan also felt that Ling Xi's action just now to get up was inappropriate, he took the medicine bowl in Aunt Yan's hand, and he said with some reproach: "Empress, just listen to the words of the imperial doctor, and stay in bed to recuperate for a while." ”

Xiang Hongxuan said as he fed the decoction in his hand into Ling Xi's mouth one by one, he watched Ling Xi drink the decoction, and then said, "Uncle Guo has returned to Yicheng, when the queen is better, let Uncle Guo enter the palace to see you." ”

"Why did my brother return to Yicheng early?"

Ling Xi was shocked by Jiang Zhennan's death, and didn't think about Ling Zhu's return to Yicheng ahead of schedule, could it be that Ling Zhu returned to Yicheng because of Jiang Zhennan's death?

Xiang Hongxuan turned the spoon in his hand, was silent for a while, and said: "Guozhang has been unwell recently, so I asked Uncle Guo to return to Yicheng in advance, and the official was reinstated. And last month, the Ministry of War came to report that Dongyu had won a complete victory, and Nanxi was destroyed, but An Guohou was also killed on the battlefield. ”

Two lines of tears flowed down Ling Xi's face, if before fainting, Aunt Yan told her the news of Jiang Zhennan's death, she had no time to grieve except for shock, then now that Xiang Hongxuan told her personally and confirmed Jiang Zhennan's death, she was left with grief.

"Queen, don't be overly sad, you still have our child in your belly."

Xiang Hongxuan gently wiped away the tears on Ling Xi's face with his hand, and held Ling Xi's hand tightly with one hand, he had the impression that Ling Xi rarely cried, and Ling Xi, who looked sick and weak in front of him, made him feel distressed.

"Your Majesty, when will the coffin of Marquis An return to Yicheng? When will Cousin Wanfeng return to the court, the concubine wants to see him. ”

If she hadn't entered the palace, would Jiang Zhennan have gone to the battlefield so desperately? I don't know why she really wants to meet Jiang Bangfeng at this moment.

Xiang Hongxuan frowned, he let go of Ling Xi's hand, and said with some embarrassment: "Empress, you are pregnant now, and it is the right thing to recuperate, but don't worry, Queen, I will ask Uncle Guo to hold a beautiful funeral for An Guohou." The Jiang family is full of heroes, and I will not treat them badly. ”

Ling Xi was stunned, Xiang Hongxuan asked Ling Zhu to handle Jiang Zhennan's funeral, that is to say, Xiang Hongxuan didn't plan to let Jiang Bangfeng return to Yicheng at all, she looked at Xiang Hongxuan with some disappointment, could it be that Xiang Hongxuan was already suspicious of the Jiang family?

Maybe it was because she was pregnant, or maybe it was because it was not worth feeling sad that three generations of the Jiang family had died on the battlefield, Ling Xi's heart inexplicably swelled with irritability, and she cried: "Your Majesty, the general died fighting for the country, is it glory or sorrow?" ”

Xiang Hongxuan immediately got up, in addition to shock, there was also some anger on his face, he stared at Ling Xi and roared angrily: "Empress, do you know what you are talking about?" ”

Seeing that Xiang Hongxuan was angry, the palace people in the house were so frightened that they immediately fell to their knees, trembling, and did not dare to raise their heads, and the house fell into a dead silence.

Xiang Hongxuan didn't wait for Ling Xi to give in, and he didn't even wait for Ling Xi to confront him again, and he roared angrily,

Ling Xi lay quietly on the bed, letting her tears soak the placket in front of her, Ling Xi began to ignore Xiang Hongxuan, making Xiang Hongxuan even more angry, he knew that Ling Xi was afraid that he saw his suspicion of the Jiang family, and Ling Xi was angry with himself.

The more Xiang Hongxuan thought about it, the more angry he became, and he walked towards the door with a big stride, but he just walked a few steps, turned his head back, and looked at Ling Xi's teary eyes, he was angry and distressed, and he said loudly to a room of palace people who knelt on the ground: "You have to take good care of the queen, if there is something wrong with the queen and the prince in the womb, I will ask you." ”

After saying that, Xiang Hongxuan left Qingfeng Garden angrily, Aunt An had never seen Xiang Hongxuan so angry, and she had never seen Ling Xi hit Hongxuan so much, what's wrong? It was a joyous event, but how did it become like this?

Aunt Yan gently wiped away the tears on Ling Xi's face with a silk handkerchief, and said with some distress: "Queen Mother, don't be sad anymore, it's not good for your health." ”
