Chapter 456: The Heart Has a Soul
Chunxiang learned from Jiang Gengchu about the "agreement" mentioned in the letter of the true king, and also understood the powerful relationship between them. So, Haruka decided to continue pretending not to know and not show it in front of the princess.
And Jiang Geng looked depressed, no matter how much he said good things. Chunxiang has never let go, but she just doesn't agree to marry him.
But even so, Jiang Geng will never give up. He has already identified the woman Haruka, and in this life, he will not marry anyone else except her.
Jiang Geng decided so, and said the same to Chunxiang.
And, as the other party to the matter, Chunxiang has already accepted Jiang Geng in her heart. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been unmarried for so many years. However, Haruka is still reluctant to leave the princess in her heart. In particular, the princess is now pregnant, and there are crises around her, and the prince is far away in Youzhou City, so Chunxiang is even more afraid to marry.
Chunxiang is loyal to the lord, and Jiang Geng also knows it. Therefore, although Jiang Geng was in a hurry to marry a beauty, he did not force Chunxiang. After all, it was his, and he believed that no one could snatch it away.
Anyway, in this life, he has already identified Haruka. Wait another year and a half, or even three and a half years, and he can only wait.
On the other side, after Song Yi received the letter from the prince, where could he sleep?
These days, although she is calm on the surface, she is worried about the true king of Youzhou City all the time.
Fighting is not a game, it is a real battle. Song Yi was afraid, when the real king went to the battlefield, he forgot that he was a person with a wife and children, and he also charged into battle, not taking his own safety seriously.
She didn't expect a man to stay away from Kyoto for a long time, and she still remembered what he had agreed with her before leaving Beijing. She also knows that when a war starts, it is not controlled at all, and many things will not be planned to keep up with the rapid changes.
But unexpectedly, the true king himself still remembered what he said, he said that he would find a way to come back with her to welcome the birth of a new life no matter what, and he also wanted to enjoy the joy of seeing the child at the first sight.
Song Yi knew that this was a promise given to her by the true king, and it was also his way of expressing his apology. Song Yi knows this man, he is a man who does much more than he says, and he is also a man who stands up to the sky.
However, Song Yi also knows. Men's commitments also contain dangers. The border war is stalemate, and the real king has revealed a little bit of the frontier situation in the first two family letters. Although the man didn't say it explicitly, Song Yi could already see between the lines that the situation in Youzhou City was not very good.
How could a man, as a commander, leave behind 300,000 troops and 500,000 enemy troops outside the city and return to Beijing? If this is to be known, it must be a great crime to kill the head.
Therefore, after Song Yi read the letter, even if he was reluctant, he immediately burned it. Even if Haruka asked, she didn't say it explicitly. It's not that she doesn't believe Chunxiang and Jiang Geng, it's just that this matter is very important, if the news leaks, not only Youzhou City is in danger, but even the true king will be in danger.
Song Yi lay on the bed, stroked his stomach, tossed and turned, and simply got up from the bed and came to the window.
It was already dark, and there was a bright moon and stars overhead, but Song Yi felt that he missed the true king more than ever.
I don't know, what is he doing at this time? Is it in front of the sand table, picking up the lights and planning? Or, frowning, meditating? Will she be like her, looking at the moon in the sky and missing his wife who is far away in Kyoto?
Song Yi sighed, stroked his stomach, and said in his heart, "Child, you have to bless your father with peace and security." We are reunited as a family, and we are beautiful."
Far away in the Marshal Mansion of Youzhou City, Zhu Xi had a busy day, and finally arranged tomorrow's tactics.
At this moment, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and it would be dawn again in a few moments.
These days, Zhu Xi is like this. Daily sand table drills, arrange tactics, and discuss tactics with Marshal Gao and the generals on the left and right.
The reason why he was so busy was also because Zhu Xi wanted to end the war as soon as possible and return to his wife as soon as possible.
"Sneeze" Zhu Xi couldn't help but sneeze again.
"Lord Wang, are you catching a cold?" Yin Xiaohei said.
Yin Xiaohei came in with hot water, these days, he saw the prince so desperate. He knew that the prince wanted to end the battle early, but he also understood that the Jurchens just wanted to hold them back. Otherwise, the 500,000-strong army would not have been stationed outside all the time, but it would not have fought with all its might.
Although Youzhou City is a border fortress, easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are still a large number of ordinary residents in the city, who have been trapped for a long time, and the atmosphere in the city is also very depressing.
Everyone knows that if you live in this oppressive and tense atmosphere for a long time, maybe someone will not be able to hold on and do something dangerous.
And the Jurchens are probably waiting for problems to arise within Youzhou City. After all, both the Qianchao and the Jurchens have done their best this time, and for the sake of the land is life and death, and no one has left any room left.
Under such circumstances, the imperial court sent the Zhen King to command the overseers, just to ensure that the border would not be breached by the Jurchens and Nuhachi. Otherwise, the Jurchens drove straight in, and the Qianjun Dynasty had no power to stop it.
Yin Xiaohei knew how great the pressure on the prince was, and he also understood how important it was to the society and people's livelihood of the Qianzhou Dynasty whether Youzhou City could be defended.
"I don't know what's going on, but tonight, I've been sneezing for a long time. But there is no physical discomfort, and it shouldn't be a cold," Zhu Xi said suspiciously.
When Yin Xiaohei heard this, a strange look appeared on his face.
Zhu Xi saw the expression on Xiao Hei's face and asked, "What do you mean by this expression?" ”
"Lord Wang, the servant heard that as long as someone is concerned, that person will keep sneezing. Since you don't catch a cold, could it be that someone is worried about the prince, so you will keep sneezing tonight? ”
Zhu Xi had already heard that Yin Xiaohei was making fun of him, but he was not annoyed, as soon as he came, he could have Xiaohei by his side and talk often, not only to chat for comfort, but also to mediate this depressing atmosphere; Second, Zhu Xi had already listened to Xiao Hei's words, and he could still think of himself at such a late hour, he hoped it was that person.
"Count the days, the letter I wrote has already arrived in Kyoto, right?"
The true king Zhu Xi asked suddenly, Yin Xiaohei was stunned, but he quickly thought of something and replied, "The letter from the prince has been sent away with the song that was reported to the imperial court ten days ago. Well, it's time to go to Kyoto."
"That's good. She should be very happy if she saw the letter I wrote to her," Zhu Xi said, unconsciously showing a sweet smile on his face.
Yin Xiaohei looked at the prince as if he was looking at a monster, and he didn't know why he suddenly showed such a panicked expression. Here, it's not Kyoto, but the prince can show such a sweet smile because he thinks of the princess.
Yin Xiaohei had to admit that the prince had fallen in. But Xiao Hei had to envy the prince, and then thought that he was still alone, and he was even more angry, and he couldn't wait to deduct the smile on the prince's face.
