Time passed quickly, and Zhou Yunxi's belly grew bigger day by day.

Counting the days, the child in the womb is already in July, and in a few more days, it is time to give birth.

"Although the battle reports are all good news, the matter of the prince and Lin Qing coming back has not been decided for a long time, if this drags on, I'm afraid the time will be very tight, right?"

Xiling Ying teased the parrot that Zhou Qian didn't know where to catch, and her expression was a little sad.

"If you get back from the border, it will take less than a month." Zhou Yunxi smiled, he hadn't gotten any bad news during this time, which made Zhou Yunxi's heart finally settle down, "According to the current situation, as long as there are no other mistakes, it will be okay to come back before I give birth." ”

These words made Xilingying's face come alive.

It has been more than half a year since Lin Qing went out with the army, and it looks like it is coming to the end of the year, and if he doesn't come back, I'm afraid that even the festival that Da Chu has always valued the most will have to miss.

When the matter of coming back before was inconclusive and speculative, Xiling Ying had not thought about it, but once there were signs of returning to Beijing, Xiling Ying was full of thoughts about Lin Qing's return to Beijing.

For six or seven days in a row, what Xiling Ying dreamed of at night was Lin Qing riding a tall horse and stopping at the Northwest Hou Mansion, showing her a gentle and affectionate smile.

But every time I woke up, I clearly realized that there was no one around me, and it was just a dream. Such a gap made Xiling Ying suddenly understand the reason why Zhou Yunxi was depressed and difficult to rejoice some time ago.

I have to admit that Xilingying's big temperament makes her a little slow to react to some things. In other words, when I realize it, it will be much later than others.

"Didn't Master Hou enter the palace today? I heard that it was because the neighboring country handed over the surrender letter, and was willing to cede the land and withdraw the army, and only begged Dachu not to continue fighting. ”

Xiling Ying said that there was indeed something going on, and it was precisely because of this news that Xiling Ying would go to Qinhou Mansion again and chat with Zhou Yunxi.

In other words, I want to get an answer from Zhou Yunxi. The military report to the palace will come back faster than the letter from home.

"That's true."

Zhou Yunxi nodded, of course she got the relevant news, but it was not the news from Qin Fengyi's side, but the news from Yuan'er beside Liu Yue.

Of course, this is naturally what Liu Yue meant,

"No wonder you're so sure the world will come back." Hearing Zhou Yunxi's answer, Xiling Ying's eyes suddenly lit up, "As long as Emperor Chu accepts the request of the neighboring country, this war will be over, and they can return to Beijing as soon as possible!" ”

"There is still a lot to do, that is, the emperor should respond to the request of the neighboring emperor, and Feng Yi and Lord Lin will continue to delay for some time." Zhou Yunxi did not agree with Xiling Ying's words, "Moreover, the neighbors have always been insidious and cunning, although they handed over the surrender letter, but what kind of calculation they made, whether they secretly had other plans, it is not yet known." ”

"I've handed over all the books, can I still regret it?"

Xiling Ying also knows a little about the war, and in her opinion, since she handed over the surrender letter, she was afraid of being beaten. Since you are scared of being beaten, how can you regret it?

Wouldn't that be too much—

"Won't you be beaten worse after you regret it? No one would joke about such a thing, right? Xiling Ying had a stunned look in her eyes, "Even if the neighboring emperor is sinister and cunning, and his stomach is full of bad water, it won't be like this, right?" ”

"Haven't you heard of the word 'deception'?" 67

Zhou Yunxi raised his eyebrows, although his face did not show mockery, but it still made Xiling Xuan dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say.

Of course, Xiling Ying has heard the word 'deception'.

"Didn't you say that the letter of surrender sent back was stamped with the seal of a neighboring country?" Xiling Ying was silent for a long time and finally spoke, "If there is no national seal, it's just that, maybe it's really a fraud, but since the national seal is attached, how can there be no room for regret?" ”

"What is on paper is actually the most useless."

Zhou Yunxi said softly, his face was much more solemn than before.

She looked at the leaves blown off by the wind, and the smile on her face faded.

"If nothing else, the emperor and Feng Yi and Lord Lin will not have any differences in their plans." As he spoke, Zhou Yunxi turned his head to look at Xiling Ying, his eyes were serious, "The neighboring country is useless this time." ”

"Can I go back to Beijing that month?"

Xiling Ying did not have the slightest doubt about Zhou Yunxi's words, for Xiling Ying, if she wanted to understand Chu Ci and Liu Yue, Zhou Yunxi was the fastest channel.

After all, the relationship between these people has always been very good, although Chu Ci and Liu Yue are now high, one is the emperor and the other is the queen, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor and the queen still take care of the princess of the Qin Marquis Mansion in every way and maintain it in every way.

In addition to Zhou Yunxi's life-saving grace, it is by virtue of past friendships.

And since the relationship with Zhou Yunxi has improved, Xiling Ying has clearly felt that Zhou Yunxi is really easy to get along with, and he really has no bad intentions.

There is not the slightest thought of power.

Such a person is indeed easy to make people feel close.

"Winning and chasing is the fastest." Zhou Yunxi smiled and did not change his initial opinion, "From the border to the capital, even if it is eight hundred miles expedited, it will take twenty days, and during this time, it is impossible for the two of them to do nothing." ”

"That's right."

Zhou Yunxi's words made Xiling Ying nod in agreement, after all, Lin Qing's style of acting was mostly the same as his ordinary performance, and it was something that people wanted to stay away from.

"If they come back late and don't have the baby just in time for the birth, how will the child be named?" Although Xiling Ying agreed with Zhou Yunxi's words, since the war has not ended, everything is still up for debate.

"If it's too late, there's still the child's grandfather." Zhou Yunxi naturally considered this possibility, so the expression on his face did not change much at this time, only a little dim, "Master Hou is now in the capital, and he is not worried about no one naming him." Besides, can't I give my child a name? It doesn't have to be Qin Fengyi back. ”

These words took on a bit of a taste of anger, and also made Xiling Ying purse her lips and smile, and looked at Zhou Yunxi's eyes with a little more urgency.

Such a look made Zhou Yunxi cough lightly, but Xiling Ying did not restrain because of this, but also 'tsk' twice. In this way, Zhou Yunxi couldn't hold back, and glanced at Xiling fiercely,

Xiling Ying was not annoyed, but still stared at Zhou Yunxi with such playful eyes, and looked at her for a long time, until Zhou Yunxi felt that she was not in herself, and when she was about to say a few words to her, Xiling Ying withdrew her gaze.

But in this way, Zhou Yunxi's words that came to his lips could not be spoken, so he could only hold them alive.
