Changzhou City Gate.

Changtian's eyes were scarlet, and he watched the friendly troops outside the city holding high the military flag of "Chu" surround the barbarians, and the two sides fought in one place. The knife in his hand tightened, and he suddenly raised the big knife and pointed it straight to the sky, "Let's kill it!" ”

The soldiers listened to the order, and rushed out mercilessly with weapons in hand, even if they knew that going out would be sent to death, none of them became deserters. The gloom and anger that had been coming for days erupted at this moment, and the knife fell in his hand, and a person's head rolled under his feet.

Suddenly, there were screams outside the city, both enemy and their own.

When Xu Jiayi hurried to the city gate, Chang Tian had already taken some of the remaining soldiers out of the city. The whole air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made Xu Jiayi retch.

"Madam, go back and rest first, we are guarding here, and we will never let a barbarian enter the city!" The man who said this was a man standing at the gate of the city with a big knife, even if the words were said to her, but his eyes were staring at the city gate, and the knife in his hand was tightly held, as if no one could walk into Changzhou City alive from in front of him.

If so, it must have stepped over his corpse.

Xu Jiayi was looking for the man who had a haunting dream in the chaotic crowd, but she didn't. But she also knew that she couldn't help them here, but would drag them down, so she could only nod and retreat to the door of the Marquis of Anping Mansion to wait for news.

Two hours later, Xu Jiayi stood at the door sweating profusely, tiptoeing in anticipation.

A black horse galloped from a distance, and the figure sitting on the horse's back, even if he couldn't see his face clearly from a distance, Xu Jiayi just knew that the person was Chu Changfeng, and she couldn't help but feel happy in her heart. Not far behind him, a group of elite soldiers followed, hurrying all the way.

The figure was getting closer and closer, closer and closer, and finally Xu Jiayi finally saw his face clearly, as well as ...... A woman snuggled in his arms. The woman didn't know if she was asleep or fainted, and leaned softly on Chu Changfeng's chest. When Chu Changfeng turned over and dismounted, he didn't forget to gently hug her off the horse.

Xu Jiayi's heart unconsciously missed a beat.

I don't know if it's because I saw Chu Changfeng again, or because of the woman in his arms.

In such a hot weather, the woman was still wrapped in a thick cloak and draperies, which were tightly covered and her face could not be seen clearly. As for why she is a woman, it is really because her posture and hair can't deceive people. To tell the truth, the moment she saw this woman, Xu Jiayi said that it was all fake if she was not unhappy in her heart.

But at the same time, she was glad in her heart, no matter what, Chu Changfeng came back alive, even if he brought back a woman.

Mama Hua, who followed Xu Jiayi out to greet Chu Changfeng, couldn't help but look at Xu Jiayi's face with some concern when she saw this, seeing her lips slightly hooked, and her light and breezy appearance, instead of feeling relieved, she was even more worried.

In this world, when the army marches and fights, how can he bring back a woman with him?!

Is it a girl who was saved on the way, or is it ......

Cuiyun stared at a pair of eyes as if he wanted to eat Chu Changfeng, and he was angry in his heart.

The three masters and servants, none of them thought in the direction of Xu Yao for a while, the woman in Chu Changfeng's arms. Seeing Chu Changfeng coming over, Xu Jiayi stepped forward and was about to talk to him, but saw Chu Changfeng's brows furrowed, "Why did you come out?" ”

Without waiting for Xu Jiayi to answer, Chu Changfeng asked again, "Is Doctor Shen in the mansion?" ”

"No," Xu Jiayi shook her head, there were many injured soldiers in Changzhou City, and the military doctors couldn't keep busy at all, even other doctors in Changzhou City went to the wounded barracks to help, and Doctor Shen was naturally there. Seeing that Chu Changfeng's face instantly became gloomy when he heard "no", and his eyes touched the woman in his arms, Xu Jiayi bent her lips and said, "You send people into the mansion first, and I will immediately send someone to invite Dr. Shen over." ”

"I'm sorry for you." As soon as Chu Changfeng's words fell, the people and horses behind him chased after him, looking like they were all elite soldiers, seeing that Xu Jiayi was saluting and asking for peace, Xu Jiayi bowed slightly and prepared to let people settle them, who knew that Chu Changfeng was signaling them to wait here, and he would come out later.

He's still leaving?

Xu Jiayi wanted to ask a few questions, but Chu Changfeng had already entered the mansion with someone in his arms.

In desperation, Xu Jiayi found someone to come over and asked him to go to the wounded barracks to invite Dr. Shen to come, and he took Mama Hua and Cuiyun back to Fengyuan.

"Mama Hua, I remember that there are still two ginseng sticks left in the warehouse that are useless, you can send them to your cousin." When walking on the road, Xu Jiayi suddenly remembered such a thing and commanded loudly.

"It was specially reserved for my wife to give birth." Mama Hua frowned a little embarrassed, in fact, Xu Jiayi had already opened the treasury of the dowry long ago, and moved out all the things that could be used in it, those medicinal materials and everything were taken to the people in the wounded barracks, and the remaining two decades of ginseng were specially set aside for Xu Jiayi by Mama Hua in her private heart.

Seeing that Mama Hua wanted to persuade her, Xu Jiayi smiled, waved her hand and said, "Send it over." ”

"Madam, there are some things that should not be said according to the identity of the slave maid, but the slave and maid still have to say one thing today. The prince came back today and brought back a woman, madam, don't be angry with the prince, it's not worth it. ”

Even if the prince brings back ten or eight women in the future, and the lady is the princess who came back from the eight sedan chairs of the Marquis of Anping, no one can go beyond the lady, so naturally there is no need to be in such a hurry to please those women.

"I'm not angry, if I do, will I let you give her ginseng?"

"It's good that Madam is not unhappy, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and when the son walks outside, there must always be someone around to serve him."

Xu Jiayi originally wanted to follow her words a few words, which made people think that she was a narrow-minded and intolerant jealous woman, but those words were repeated in her mind, but she couldn't make a single word when she got stuck in her throat, and finally didn't say anything, just paced all the way back to Fengyuan in silence.

When she was on the way, she asked Cuiyun to find Steward Chang, she had something to explain. After Cuiyun found Chang Tian, Xu Jiayi explained to him some matters related to the aftermath in Changzhou City. After he left, Cuiyun looked at Xu Jiayi without saying anything, and it wasn't until Xu Jiayi signaled her to say something straight that Cuiyun told the news she had heard.

After Dr. Shen was found, he went directly to Yaoguang Pavilion, that is to say, the girl who had just been brought back by the prince was placed there.

"Yaoguang Pavilion?" Xu Jiayi frowned slightly, and muttered in some confusion.

Yaoguang Pavilion is Xu Yao's courtyard, although the Anping Marquis Mansion is not big, but there is an empty courtyard, how did Chu Changfeng place a girl in Xu Yao's courtyard.

Xu Jiayi's doubts didn't last long, because she soon knew from Mama Lin, who was brought back, that the one from Yaoguang Pavilion was none other than Xu Yao.

When she learned the news, Xu Jiayi's first feeling was not joy, but worry. Xu Yao walked with Mrs. Chu, why did she come back now, and she covered it tightly with a cloak so that no one could look at it, something big happened. Xu Jiayi was left and couldn't be safe, and hurriedly asked Cuiyun to go to Yaoguang Pavilion to inquire.

As soon as Cuiyun walked on the front foot, Chu Changfeng returned to Fengyuan on the back foot.

The two looked at each other from a distance of two or three meters.

Chu Changfeng didn't change his clothes, and the clothes on his body were still the ones he had just come back. There was still a light sweat on his forehead, as if he had rushed over after the matter was dealt with from Yaoguang Pavilion.

The clothes on his body were barely recognizable in their original color, not even intact, with holes in several places and blood all over his body. Xu Jiayi didn't know if the blood was his, or someone else's, but looking at Chu Changfeng's still ruddy face, it should be mostly someone else's.

He did look terrifyingly tight, and his face was covered with blood, but Xu Jiayi didn't feel scared, but felt very relieved. It's just that the tip of the nose can't help but be sour, and in the blink of an eye, tears actually fall.

Maybe it's Chu Changfeng's distress, or maybe he feels wronged.

Chu Changfeng looked at the delicate and soft little girl in front of him and looked at his tearful face, his heart was soft, he raised his hand and gently wiped the tears on her cheeks, pressed the little girl's head into his chest, and said softly, "I'm sorry, I'm late." ”

So many things had happened before, and she didn't cry when it was much more difficult than this, and now that she saw Chu Changfeng's figure, she just couldn't help it. Xu Jiayi stretched out her hand and hugged Chu Changfeng's waist tightly, burying her head deeper.

"No, it's not too late......" Xu Jiayi threw herself in front of Chu Changfeng's chest, suppressed her voice muffled, sniffed, and raised her hand to touch Chu Changfeng's face, distressed. Xu Jiayi said slowly, "It's okay if you're fine." ”

Xu Jiayi knew that she was crying coquettishly in Chu Changfeng's arms in front of the public, which was really shameless. So after his mood stabilized a little, he was embarrassed to withdraw from his arms, only to find that the maids in the yard didn't know when they would retreat, leaving only her and Chu Changfeng.

"You don't know, if you don't come back, I really won't be able to hold on." Xu Jiayi touched the tears on her face and said slowly.

"It's me who is not good, it's me who is not good......," Chu Changfeng coaxed softly. He wanted to stay by Xu Jiayi's side, but in fact he couldn't, there were still many things waiting for him to do, and there were many soldiers waiting for him at the door.

Xu Jiayi shook her head with tears in her eyes, and suddenly remembered Xu Yao who was still in Yaoguang Pavilion, so she asked.

Time was pressing, Chu Changfeng only briefly said the matter, and when he heard that Xu Jiayi sent someone to send Xu Yao and Mrs. Chu to Yangcheng together, his brows frowned slightly.
