As soon as the enemy leader's men raised their swords above their heads to kill them, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance, causing panic among their troops.

Xu Jiuan saw that the expected knife did not fall, opened his eyes, and in the distance, Zhu Wu was rushing over with the army, and Xu Jiuan immediately woke up the others.

"Quick, our reinforcements are coming, brothers, let's hurry up." He said hoarsely for a long time.

The enemy army began to panic, what to do now, there are not many of them now, and suddenly found reinforcements for a long time, and they were all scared in their hearts.

Just when they were all scared, Zhu Wu had already come to them with reinforcements, and Zhu Wu's soldiers quickly helped the injured people here for a long time, and then began to fight with the enemy army.

After a long time, he settled the wounded soldier and began to join the war, he was really red-eyed, and he didn't feel the slightest pain from the injuries on his body.

Because the enemy army was just in the joy of victory, and there were not many people in it, they were beaten by Zhu Wu's army, and the enemy army began to retreat one after another, and the initial winning situation turned into losing.

Seeing that the enemy was invincible to Zhu Wu's army, he hurriedly began to withdraw his troops and flee, and the leader of the enemy army did not lose his previous arrogance, and fled on horseback.

Zhu Wu saw that the enemy army had withdrawn, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers not to chase him, and when he turned around, he found that Xu Jiuan was lying on the ground covered in injuries.

Zhu Wu did not waste time, and immediately asked the doctor accompanying the army to treat the wounded, and Xu Jiu'an really put down his heart at this moment, and lay on the ground exhausted.

"Thanks to you Zhu Wu, I thought I was going to confess here today." Xu Jiuan spoke.

"Okay, don't talk anymore, rest well, you're so badly injured." Zhu Wu opened his mouth to comfort.

After listening to Zhu Wu's words for a long time, he stopped talking, conserved his strength, and after the military doctor bandaged him, he went to treat other wounded people.

Jiu'an's nervousness was relieved, he was unprecedentedly relaxed, and finally picked up a life.

After the military doctor bandaged all the wounded soldiers, Zhu Wu sent people to take care of the wounded one-on-one, and he personally took care of Xu Jiu'an.

He had food and drink fed to the wounded to maintain their strength, and then he collected the bodies of his dead brothers and buried them on the spot.

After doing all this, Zhu Wu ordered to prepare to return to the station, but because the station was too far away, they had to rush back overnight.

The group walked in the direction of the station, the road was not close, and the situation of the injured that Zhu Wu considered also slowed down the pace of progress.

In the capital, Pei Yuetong's situation is getting worse and worse, and everyone dare not tell Pei Yuetong's true situation to Xu Jiu'an, for fear that he will be distracted on the battlefield.

Originally, Xu Jiu'an and Pei Yuetong exchanged letters once every ten days, but because Pei Yuetong's situation was very poor, they cut off the correspondence, and Xu Jiu'an had a lot of things on the battlefield recently, so he also forgot about this stubble.

The Empress Dowager felt sorry for Pei Yuetong, her husband was not by her side when she went to the battlefield, she finally became pregnant with a child, and she accidentally lost it, so she came to see Pei Yuetong every once in a while.

She really loves Pei Yuetong, and seeing that Pei Yuetong is now delirious, her heart hurts, and she has been tracking the news for a long time. Beauty Nest

Pei Yuetong is now trapped in her own world, and she has no feelings for everyone, and the Queen Mother doesn't know if it's a curse or a blessing when she sees Pei Yuetong like this.

Xu Jiu'an and his party walked all night, and because there were wounded in the group, they stopped and stopped, knowing that the dawn broke before they saw the appearance of the camp.

At this time, they increased their speed and arrived at the camp, and began to return to the tent to rest, Zhu Wu and Xu Jiu'an slept in a tent to take care of him.

Originally, someone in the army sent a letter to the emperor about Xu Jiu'an's situation, but because Xu Jiu'an was delayed for a long time on the way back, his latest news did not reach the capital in time.

Originally, the Queen Mother also tried to use Xu Jiu'an's letter to awaken Pei Yuetong's memory and let her come out of her own world, but now that Xu Jiu'an was seriously injured, she did not reply in time, and her plan could only be put on hold.

At this time, in Jiu'an's camp, the soldiers were recuperating, leaving a few people on patrol, Xu Jiu'an was in poor health, and the road was bumpy, so he fell asleep.

Zhu Wu saw that Jiu'an had finally fallen asleep, so he closed his eyes with peace of mind and began to rest, and for a while there was thunder in the camp.

In the capital, Pei Yuetong ignored everyone, and all the ladies in the palace took turns to come and see it, but they couldn't make Pei Yuetong's condition better.

Everyone is at a loss, after all, Pei Yuetong is now in favor of Pei, not to mention that she is still the goddaughter of the first emperor himself, and the empress dowager is also very good to her.

Therefore, the families of the officials in the capital also came to visit one after another to see if they could help Pei Yuetong out.

For a while, Pei Yuetong's house was very lively, but as the owner, Pei Yuetong's condition did not improve, but worsened a little.

Later, the Empress Dowager had to give an order, saying that no one should disturb Pei Yuetong and let her recuperate in the mansion, and she thanked Pei Yuetong for everyone's kindness.

In this way, in Pei Yuetong's house, a few quiet days finally passed, and every day the imperial doctor would come over on time to check Pei Yuetong's pulse, always paying attention to the changes in her condition, because the queen mother was heartbroken by this matter.

The Empress Dowager was already sick and not in particularly good health, plus she had been worried about Pei Yuetong's body during this time, worried that her child was gone, she would think more heavily and pay less attention to her body.

But the Empress Dowager has no choice, because Pei Yuetong is in this situation, she doesn't know what to persuade her, because Xu Jiu'an is now missing, and there is no exact whereabouts of all matters at the border, and Pei Yuetong is now gone, because of physical reasons, the child is gone, so the Empress Dowager doesn't know what to advise.

The Queen Mother has not been well because she has been infected with the wind chill since she left the palace last time, alas, now because she has been worried about Pei Yuetong, she is also worried every day, so her health is getting worse and worse.

"Queen Mother, are you worried about the princess again?" Concubine Xian still came to chat with the Empress Dowager today as usual, and took care of her by the way.

But as soon as she came in, she watched the Queen Mother keep looking at the scenery outside the window, in a daze, with no expression on her face, and she didn't know where her thoughts were going, but the sadness on her face was very real.

Concubine Xian doesn't need to guess to know who the Empress Dowager is worried about now, Pei Yuetong has been worried about her since the child is gone, the Empress Dowager has been very worried that she wants to go out of the palace to see her, but the Empress Dowager's health is not good, so she didn't go out.

"You're here." The Empress Dowager didn't feel strange when she saw Concubine Xian coming, Concubine Xian has been doing her best to take care of her by his side in the past few days, and she also saw it in her eyes.

And Concubine Xian is also close to her, although Concubine Xian knows that she is worried about Pei Yuetong now, because her situation is really worrying now.
