Chapter 55: Brothers

The Yellow River, several pontoon bridges across the river, there are soldiers and horses to the south to the north to cross the river, now spring is coming, the Yellow River thaws, there will be a large amount of ice on the river surface, the safety of the ships and pontoons is in danger, so the team that is crossing the river has significantly accelerated the speed.

On the south bank, Baimadu, the palace tent, and the Son of Heaven Yuwen Weicheng cheered, because he saw his grandfather, who lifted him up and turned around in place a few times, which made the little guy laugh again and again.

The status of the Son of Heaven is noble, even if he is a young emperor, he is not something that courtiers can play with, even if this person is the ancestor of the Son of Heaven, but if he does it in a place where there are no outsiders, it will not cause any criticism.

Chi Shun, the Duke of the State of Xuan, was reunited with his family at this time, his wife Wang and two daughters were there, because there were no outsiders, so red tape was waived, and the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren were reunited like ordinary people.

Wei Chi Shun saw that her family was healthy and healthy, and the little girl Wei Chi Mingyue, who had just been widowed when she got married, was no longer bitter and relieved.

The Wang family has quietly revealed to Yu Chishun that Wang Xin, the nephew of Concubine Shu, pursued Yu Chi Mingyue, and Yu Chishun has no opinion, after all, her daughter has sacrificed too much for the family, and it is not bad to have a good home in the future, and the other daughter...

"Sanniang, don't think so much about unhappy things, Thorn Lang is still young, you can't live without A-Niang."

Hearing this, Wei Chi Chi nodded and replied in a low voice, "Yes, father." ”

Father appeared here, of course, not to welcome the family, Wei Chi Chifan knew where his father was going next, and he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, and tried his best to control it so that he didn't cry.

The daughter's duplicity, Wei Chi Shun can understand, but the things that should be faced have to be faced: Yu Chi Chi Fan and Yu Wenwen will probably never meet again in this life.

Yuwen Weicheng drilled into his grandfather's arms, pulling his ancestor's beard under his jaw to play, he still didn't understand what was going on outside, he only knew that the weather was hot, and he wanted to go back to the 'cool' Yecheng.

In fact, the palace in Xiyang City is also very cool in summer, Yuwen Weicheng doesn't understand why he doesn't go back to Xiyang, and now he sees his grandfather doting on him, and he is more and more energetic: "Grandfather! When will Thorn Lang return to Xiyang? ”

Wei Chishun smiled: "It's soon, it's fast..."

"Then will the grandfather go to Xiyang with the Thorn Lang?"

"Yes, yes."

Yuwen Weicheng was very happy to hear this, stretched out his finger, Wei Chishun was stunned for a moment, and then also stretched out his finger, and 'pulled the hook' with his grandson as an agreement, Yu Chi Chifan watched silently from the side, without saying a word.

The embarrassing atmosphere did not last long, and Cui Zishu, the secretary of the Prime Minister's Mansion, asked to see him outside the tent, and after Wei Chishun went out, he learned that it was the prime minister who had been invited.

Wei Chishun and Wei Chi are half-brothers, and the relationship has never been very good, but at the most critical moment when the family is facing, even if Wei Chishun has resentment in his heart, he has to come to a 'brother together, and its profits are broken'.

A couch was carefully carried onto a wide carriage, and Prime Minister Wei Chi lay motionless on the couch, until the couch was placed in the car, and Cui Zishu led Yu Chishun to arrive.

Seeing Cui Zishu make a look, the attendant who was originally serving Yu Chi in the car retreated, leaving only the two brothers of Yu Chi in the car, and there was no second person within a radius of ten steps outside the car except Cui Zishu.

Wei Chi, who looked haggard, opened his eyes, reached out and grabbed his brother's hand, and after a while, he looked at Yu Chishun and said, "Brother, the matter of Henan, please." ”

"I know, don't worry."

Wei Chishun held his brother's hand with both hands, and said softly, promising that he didn't need to be impassioned, just use his heart, although the brothers have an estrangement, they may not be both prosperous, but they will definitely lose both, Wei Chishun knows the seriousness of the matter.

Wei Chi nodded, closed his eyes again, at this moment, the person he can trust most is not Cui Zishu and other henchmen, but his half-brother, and the current situation in Henan, it is only more appropriate to let Wei Chishun preside over the meeting.

Wei Chishun looked at his younger brother, and saw that his younger brother had obviously lost weight, his face was haggard, and his spirit was not good, but it was gratifying that Yu Chi's illness was finally getting better.

The wind chill did not deteriorate into tuberculosis, God forbid!

"Brother." Wei Chi opened his eyes again, looked at Wei Chishun, and then said a message with a wry smile: "I just got to report that Shaoling's more than 100,000 soldiers and horses have suffered all casualties." ”

"What!" Wei Chishun was shocked by the news, and wanted to say something more but didn't know what to say.

Wei Chi was seriously ill before, and had to return north with the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother, and ordered someone to bring the letter to Yecheng, so that he could immediately lead the troops south and take over the army stationed in Shaoling, but as a result...

Wei Chi looked at the roof of the car and continued to smile bitterly: "Not long ago, there was an outbreak of epidemic in the army, and six or seven out of ten soldiers contracted the disease and were about to retreat, but they were attacked by the enemy at night and suffered heavy casualties..."

"This.... It's only early spring, and most of the epidemics only break out in the summer, how can it...."

"Things have happened, it's useless to say more, now that our army is in Henan, I'm afraid it's going to go on the defensive."

Wei Chishun was a little distracted when he heard this, the more than 100,000 army was finished, which meant that he could only organize defense instead of attacking, and he had to hold the front line of Yingzhou no matter what, protect Luoyang's flank, and avoid the situation from continuing to deteriorate.

For Wei Chi Shun's question, Wei Chi did not answer immediately, this illness almost killed him, several times he had a fever and fainted, unconscious, but thanks to his strong body, he finally survived.

In order to avoid the fatigue of the carriage and horses aggravating his condition, the team going north did not travel fast or slow, and finally after arriving in Yingzhou, Wei Chi survived, his condition did not deteriorate, and his mind often remained clear, and now he arrived in Baimadu, his condition was getting better and better.

Wei Chi, who had just recovered from a serious illness, lost a lot of weight, his spirit was not good, his body was very weak, and he could not command the battle, so he wanted to hand over Henan to Yu Chishun, and he and the Son of Heaven returned to Yecheng and rested in the mansion.

I don't know how long it took, Wei Chi opened his eyes, grabbed Wei Chishun's hand tightly again, and said, "Brother, your son-in-law is very powerful, be careful." ”

"I know, don't worry about Henan, go back and recuperate."

Wei Chishun and Wei Chi talked again, and soon got out of the car, he looked at the carriage that was slowly leaving, and then looked at the family members who were getting on the bus on the other side, only to feel that his mouth was full of bitterness.

On his shoulders, he carries the heavy responsibility of the family on one shoulder, and the slightest carelessness will ruin the family; Carrying his daughter, son-in-law and grandson on one shoulder, that family affection will be gone forever in the future.

The two burdens were too heavy, and Wei Chishun was a little out of breath, but even so, he still had to face the things he had to face.

The entourage brought the mount, and after Yu Chishun got on the horse, he whipped south, followed by a large number of cavalry under the black pressure, which was a large southward Youyan Xiao horse, and was about to follow Yu Chishun to gallop in Henan.
