After the next dynasty, the fake Xu Zhaohua and Zhou Sheng Cuobai were sent back by Xu Songchen with some silver, it was a cold winter, several people discussed the next thing in the warm pavilion, Xu Zhaohua and all the people Cuobai also told everyone what happened during this time, everyone sighed for Su Qinfeng's encounter, but this is also helpless, it is inevitable that such a thing will happen on the battlefield.

"Sister, you're finally back." Xu Songchen looked at Xu Zhaohua and said with a doting face.

"Brother, I heard that I am about to have a sister-in-law, is this news true?" Xu Zhaohua said to Xu Songchen with a smile, Xu Songchen also smiled and patted Xu Zhaohua's head: "I know so soon, you little clever ghost." ”

"Who is it?" Xu Zhaohua asked curiously, and Zhou Shengcuobai also waited for Xu Songchen to say it.

Jiang Heng saw that Xu Songchen's face was flushed, and he knew his brother's temperament, so he said for him: "Since you have already gone to the Linghuo Domain, you must have heard of this person for a long time, and it is the left protector of the Linghuo Domain." ”

"Grid?" Xu Zhaohua was a little surprised, although he had only seen the appearance of Ge Tie Hammer once, but when he was in the Linghuo Domain, he heard from others that this was a talented and beautiful woman, and her brother married her, which was a perfect match.

Looking at Xu Songchen and nodding, Xu Zhaohua and Zhou Shengcuo looked at each other and smiled.

Next, when everyone began to discuss the next plan, someone outside the door reported that the ghost lady was waiting outside the palace gate, although Xu Zhaohua was a little surprised why the ghost lady would suddenly visit, but he still hurriedly arranged someone to pick her up.

When Mrs. Ghost came to the Warm Pavilion, she saw that the group was all saluting first, Xu Zhaohua took into account that Jiang Heng and Wei Cheng and her brother didn't know Mrs. Ghost yet, so they specially introduced her to them, and the three of them had heard the name of Mrs. Ghost for a long time, and they were very happy to finally see me today.

Xu Zhaohua saw that he was happy and asked people to prepare tea, just when everyone was happy, a palace maid on the side suddenly rushed over, and attacked Xu Zhaohua and Zhou Shengcuobai, when Xu Zhaohua and Zhou Shengcuobai had not reacted, Xu Songchen picked up the teacup in his hand and threw it at the assassin, taking advantage of the moment when the person dodged to fight back and make him fall to the ground. Everyone was in an uproar, Mrs. Ghost held her breath and grabbed the armrest of the chair, Zhou Sheng Cuobai asked Xu Zhaohua worriedly if she was frightened, and saw that she shook her head and let go of her heart.

Xu Zhaohua walked in front of the palace maid who was assassinated and asked, no matter how he asked the other party, he never said a word, after seeing the clues on her face, Xu Zhaohua tore off the human skin mask on the palace maid's face, it turned out that this person was Xianyue, Zhou Shengcuo was shocked, thinking of the last time Xianyue seriously injured Xu Zhaohua, he still had palpitations, and immediately called Jinyiwei to come in and take Xianyue down.

Xu Zhaohua saw the ghost lady's nervous expression and immediately stopped him: "Cuobai, forget it." ”

"Crispy, she has been stabbed again and again, and it is so easy to capture her now, and now she has to be removed!" Zhou Shengcuobai said.

Xu Zhaohua shook her head, everyone didn't understand why she did this, at this moment, when she hesitated to tell them the facts and explain, the ghost lady spoke first, she stood up and knelt in front of Zhou Sheng Cuobai, Zhou Sheng Cuobai saw this and hurriedly helped the ghost lady up: "Ghost lady, why are you doing this, please get up quickly!" ”

"Your Majesty, this is the first time I have called you Emperor, and now I just want to ask you for one thing." Mrs. Ghost's move made the scene quiet suddenly, and Zhou Sheng Cuobai was also a little at a loss, Mrs. Ghost's attitude towards him was originally ignorant of him, but now what's the matter, what is the big deal that can make her like this?

"The emperor promises you, get up quickly!" Zhou Shengcuo said as he helped the ghost lady.

"Spare the moon." The ghost lady still didn't get up, and her whole request really made Zhou Shengcuobai even more puzzled, couldn't this Xianyue be using some kind of witchcraft, why did Su Su say that she let her go Now even the ghost lady said the same, not only that, but the Xianyue, who was guarded by the brocade guard, also looked at the ghost lady blankly, not knowing why.

"Why?" Zhou Sheng Cuobai asked.

"She's my daughter." The ghost lady only said this sentence and everyone immediately understood why, seeing that Xianyue didn't seem to know, so she was very curious about the reason.

"How is this possible? I didn't have a mother when I was a child, and I grew up in a green building. Are you kidding? Xianyue said in disbelief.

So the ghost lady stood up and walked in front of her: "There is a black butterfly mark on your shoulder, do you know that it is only from the Linghuo Domain, when you were twelve years old, you were beaten by the old bustard in the green building, and a masked man saved you; When you were fifteen years old, you were asked to sing, but you weren't too good at it, and the next day the people who were yelling for you to sing the day before were gone, and you ......."

"Enough! I don't want to hear it anymore! Slim Moon covered her ears and shouted, "Why? Why are you telling me this? She originally thought that she was helpless in this world, and she understood the truth of surviving in the cracks when she was a child, and now she has gone through so many years of ups and downs, being bullied, abused, and being made difficult, she came over alone, and now suddenly a person came out and told her: I am your mother, you are my daughter.

It wasn't good news but disaster for her, and she didn't want anyone to see her what she was.

"Yue'er, it was my mother who didn't protect you at the beginning, but now our mother and daughter meet in this way, turn back, you can come back again, obedient." The ghost lady wanted to go and wipe the face of the moon, but the moon dodged it.

"Looking back, I can't go back."

"Yes, you can turn back, from now on, our mother and daughter will live in seclusion in the Valley of the Medicine King, and never come out again, my mother will love you well, sing to you and coax you to sleep, make new clothes for you in the spring, fan you in the summer, and cover the quilt for you at night in the winter, yes, these can be."

At this moment, Xianyue couldn't cry, she had fantasized about these pictures countless times in her mind, and now there was really such a person who said these words to her, she looked at Zhou Sheng Cuobai, and the ghost lady also looked at Zhou Sheng Cuobai, Zhou Sheng Cuobai nodded to them, and then the mother and daughter hugged each other in pain, as if the things they had experienced over the years could flow into each other's hearts with these salty tears. Xu Zhaohua gestured to the line of brocade guards guarding the house, and they went down, and everyone was also happy for this scene of mother-daughter reunion.

Then everyone continued to discuss the next plan, Xianyue saw it and joined their discussion, Xu Zhaohua smiled, which showed that Xianyue had defected to Dongqi's camp after what happened just now, and Xu Zhaohua was not to blame in the past, and now they have become people on a front.

With the addition of Xianyue, everyone suddenly saw the current situation a lot more openly, and Xianyue told them that Sui Chen and Zhou Shengchenmo's next plan was to attack Dongqi again on a rainy night, and also said that she found that Sui Yue did not practice witchcraft, everything was a plan of the two Sui brothers, in order to capture Xu Zhaohua to threaten Zhou Shengcuobai, which was the same as Xu Zhaohua's conjecture.

"I can pretend that nothing happened, and return to Sui Chen's side again to find out the news, so that this side can also know myself and the other." Slender Moon suggested.

At this time, the ghost lady hesitated, this is indeed a good way, but the danger in this is unknown, and now she can finally reunite with Xianyue, in case the matter is revealed, then Xianyue will be in dire straits, and her life is very likely to be threatened. Xu Zhaohua also hesitated, her worries were the same as that of the ghost lady, no one could guarantee that things would be foolproof, in case something went wrong, she couldn't explain it to the ghost lady.

"Okay." The ghost lady finally said this word, she thought about it, if she didn't do this, Dongqi would be in danger again, when will the world be peaceful, and she and Xianyue can return to the mountains and forests with peace of mind. Xu Zhaohua looked at Mrs. Ghost, she has always been grateful to Mrs. Ghost, and she doesn't know what virtues she cultivated in her previous life to be fortunate enough to meet Mrs. Ghost as her master in this life.

Xianyue smiled at the ghost lady: "Mother." This was the first time she had said this word in her life, and when she said it, she was startled by herself, and Mrs. Ghost also looked at her: "Huh! ”

"I'll come back safely, don't worry, our mother and daughter will have a good life." Slender Moon comforted the Ghost Lady.

The ghost lady nodded, and then everyone began to make further combat plans, since Sui Chen wanted to attack Dongqi in the rainy night, they had to come up with a countermeasure to minimize the losses. At the same time, the people who said goodbye to Xianyue also embarked on the road back to Daduan, and no one knew what greeted her, but this time she looked at the sky and felt that there was a direction in her heart.

After arriving at the palace in Daduan, Xian Yue told Sui Chen that she had poisoned Xu Zhaohua and Zhou Shengcuobai, and the poison effect would only work after a few days, and by then Xu Zhaohua and Zhou Shengcuobai would definitely die, Sui Chen frowned and said, "Why don't you directly poison them, wouldn't it be faster to get a hundred results?" Why wait so long here? ”

"Back to the prince, if it is highly poisoned by Xianyue, their corpses have already been discovered before they have time to escape from the palace of Eastern Qi, and when the time comes, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to escape from the entire palace, so I made this decision." Xian Yue explained, looking straight at Sui Chen, her heart was very nervous, and she was relieved after seeing Sui Chen nod in reluctantly belief, thanks to Xu Zhaohua who had imagined everything before she left, and taught her these words in advance, otherwise she really didn't know how to deal with it.

For the next few days, Xianyue stayed in Sui Chen and Zhou Shengchenmo as usual, but in fact, she was secretly investigating the news, using flying pigeons to send messages, and it was very smooth at first, until one day she saw a pigeon killed by an arrow in Sui Chen's hands and felt that something was wrong.

"Xianyue, where do you say the pigeons came from in this winter?" Sui Chen squinted at Xianyue, Xianyue knew that Sui Chen already knew the truth of the matter, and now it would be embarrassing for her to say this, so Xianyue didn't speak, she secretly clenched her fists and was ready to solve her while Sui Chen was unprepared, and suddenly she was knocked unconscious in front of her.

"The hand speed is quite fast." Sui Chen smiled at Zhou Shengchenmo in front of him and said, Zhou Shengchenmo patted his hand: "What should I do next?" ”

"Kill her and throw the body at the door of the Dongqi barracks." Sui Chen finally said.

Zhou Shengchen was stunned and did so, although he didn't want to be so kind to Xianyue in his old love, but now he had to bow his head under the eaves, and now he could only do what Sui Chen told him.

Xianyue's body was found in front of the barracks in the early morning of the next day, and when Xu Zhaohua arrived, her body had been covered with a white cloth.

The ghost woman also rushed to come after getting the news, she was supported by someone, and at this moment she saw Xu Zhaohua come out with red eyes and suddenly stopped, originally she was still a little uncertain, with a trace of hope, but now that hope is also shattered, her moon has not had time to call her a mother is gone. Why did God do this to her, why, why?

Xu Zhaohua walked up to Mrs. Ghost and hugged her, buried her head on Mrs. Ghost's shoulder, she clearly felt the tremor of Mrs. Ghost's body at the moment, and Mrs. Ghost's forbearance and pathos made Xu Zhaohua even more sad.

"I don't avenge Yue'er in this life, I don't want to be a person, and I don't share the sky with Sui Chen and others in this life!" The Ghost Lady shouted.

For a long time after that, Xu Zhaohua rarely saw the figure of the ghost lady, no one knew where she went, and Xu Zhaohua did not send anyone to inquire about the whereabouts of the ghost lady, she knew that the ghost lady needed to be quiet alone at this time.

The weather is getting colder day by day, and it snowed again not long ago, and you can clearly feel the crunch of stepping on the snow when you walk in the snow, and you don't need to light up the lights at night, and the snow outside reflects the sky very red, and the house is also a little bright.

Xu Zhaohua stood in front of the window and looked at the snow scene, suddenly felt a pain in his stomach, and then he couldn't stand up in pain and could only sit on the ground, Zhou Sheng Cuobai, who heard the movement, ran out of the inner hall and saw this scene, and hurriedly hugged Xu Zhaohua to the bed, his eyes swept over a pool of blood on the ground, and he immediately felt extremely panicked, and hurriedly called the imperial doctor to Xu Zhaohua for treatment, and he waited anxiously outside the hall.

After a long time, the door finally opened, the imperial physician walked out from inside, Zhou Sheng Cuobai hurriedly greeted Xu Zhaohua and asked about Xu Zhaohua's situation, the imperial physician shook his head and knelt down and said: "The minister's crime deserves death, the prince has been stillborn for a long time, the minister is powerless, I hope the emperor will forgive the sin!" After speaking, he kowtowed heavily, Zhou Sheng Cuobai staggered back a few steps, and the words of the imperial doctor echoed in his mind and ran towards the hall.

After entering, he saw Xu Zhaohua, who was extremely weak on the bed, Zhou Shengcuo's white heart hurt as if he was hanged, he walked to the bed, at this time Xu Zhaohua turned his face sideways, her child was so absent for no reason, before she could see that he was gone, she didn't even know how much he would come to her, she didn't deserve to be a mother.

"Crispy, it's not your fault." Zhou Sheng Cuobai comforted, in fact, his heart was also very uncomfortable, but now that Su Su needs him, he can't let her see his vulnerability, he has to give Shu Shu a solid arm to rely on.

"Cuobai, Cuobai..."Xu Zhaohua called Zhou Sheng Cuobai's name over and over again when she didn't say anything else, she was not the Xu Zhaohua who was mythologized in the eyes of the world at the moment, she was just a mother, a mother who had lost her child.

"It's okay, crispy."

"Cuobai, do you know, the imperial doctor said that he is a boy and has already been formed, but I couldn't find out because of the Gu poison, and because of the Gu poison, our child will be stillborn, I regret it, I hate it, I resent."

Zhou Shengcuobai hugged Xu Zhaohua into his arms, and the night passed like this.

Xu Zhaohua's body is recovering day by day after giving birth, but his daily mood is also depressed and he has lost many smiles. Zhou Sheng Cuobai proposed to Xu Zhaohua to go outside the territory early one morning, Xu Zhaohua refused at first, but he couldn't withstand Zhou Shengcuobai's persuasion and reluctantly agreed.

Just as the two of them were about to pack up their things and leave, there was news from the front that Sui Chen had begun to lead his troops to attack Dongqi again, Xu Zhaohua looked at Zhou Sheng Cuobai and waited for his decision, Zhou Sheng Cuobai just nodded, and then continued to pack up the things he was going out to carry.

"Cuobai, let's not go." Xu Zhaohua said.

Zhou Shengcuobai looked at Xu Zhaohua with a doting face: "It's okay, let's go, there is an uncle on the front line, I am very relieved." ”

Xu Zhaohua knew that no matter what he said to Zhou Shengcuobai now, he couldn't change his decision, so he had to go with him, and he was always worried about the things on the front line, and it seemed that he could only go back after returning from the outer regions.

Then the two of them lightly loaded on the horse, Xu Zhaohua was protected by Zhou Shengcuobai in his arms, the two of them had a horse, and they stopped and stopped along the way to pass through many places, but there was no accident that it was a white expanse, but the snow scene outside was very good, when walking on the street, Xu Zhaohua looked at the bustling crowd and felt a little better, Zhou Shengcuobai saw a smile on Xu Zhaohua's face, and he was relieved a lot.

After walking for a while, Xu Zhaohua felt thirsty, and Zhou Shengcuobai hurriedly asked her to wait on the spot to find out where there was a teahouse. , finally found a return, found that Xu Zhaohua had long ceased to wait here, and after seeing that the horse had already been ridden away, Zhou Sheng Cuobai realized that he had fallen for Xu Zhaohua.

At this moment, Xu Zhaohua was riding a horse and was galloping to the way to the Eastern Qi military camp, when she was laughing there, she suddenly remembered that she was still safe here, and she could laugh, but those front-line soldiers were fighting to the death with the invulnerable soldiers in Daduan at the moment, and they couldn't laugh at all, so they immediately came up with a plan to lead Zhou Shengcuobai to the battlefield by himself.

After arriving at the barracks, it was already night, Xu Zhaohua heard a lot of wine and singing from afar, and it was very strange that the soldiers saw Queen Xu coming, and they got up and saluted, Xu Zhaohua looked at these soldiers and found that there was no trace of blood on their bodies, this is too incredible, how can it be that walking on the battlefield is in this state now, strange, strange.

Su Mingtuo saw Xu Zhaohua coming, and hurriedly greeted him: "Zhaohua, here!" ”

Xu Zhaohua nodded, and then Su Mingtuo told Xu Zhaohua that they had won a great victory in the past few days, and the soldiers who fought at the big end were losing and retreating, but when Xu Zhaohua asked the reason, Su Mingtuo refused to tell the truth. In desperation, Xu Zhaohua found Sui Feng, Sui Feng was also surprised by Xu Zhaohua's arrival, he also knew what happened recently in the Eastern Qi Palace, and he didn't know how to comfort Xu Zhaohua.

"What's the matter with those soldiers?" Xu Zhaohua asked.

Sui Feng took a breath of talk, and the first thing she asked when she saw him was a question about someone else: "Ghost Madame, after Xian Yue's death, she came to the military camp and played witchcraft on the soldiers of Dongqi to make them invincible. ”

After hearing this, Xu Zhaohua hurriedly asked Sui Feng's ghost lady about her current whereabouts, and then found the ghost lady who stayed in the camp tent and stared at the sky in a daze.

"Master, do you know that those witchcraft are harmful to the soldiers of Eastern Qi?" Xu Zhaohua asked, and Mrs. Ghost nodded.

"Then why did the master do this? Do you know that I'd rather not have a victory like this? ”

"Zhaohua, Yue'er is dead, you know the pain in my heart, I swear not to be a person if I don't avenge this revenge!" The ghost lady said hatefully, and Xu Zhaohua sighed secretly: "Master, I know how unwilling and angry you are, but we really can't do this." After saying that, Xu Zhaohua left, she was going to find a way to crack the witchcraft of the ghost lady.

Thinking that Xu Zhaohua, the master of the Western Regions that day, had some eyebrows, he sent someone to invite them again. Xu Zhaohua, who had waited for a long time and had not yet waited for the master of the Western Regions, was very anxious, so he simply did not attack again in Eastern Qi recently, which made her happy, and in the end, Xu Zhaohua waited for Zhou Sheng Cuobai.

"Crispy, you're here! Are you okay? Zhou Sheng Cuobai asked anxiously when he saw Xu Zhaohua at first sight, Xu Zhaohua thought that Zhou Sheng Cuobai would blame her for saying goodbye, but he didn't expect to wait for him to be full of concern, and nodded heavily, he was all right.

After a few days, the two masters of the Western Regions finally came, and the ghost lady threatened her life to try to prevent them from cracking the witchcraft, and the two masters knew that the ghost lady and Xu Zhaohua were in a master-apprentice relationship, and she was not a bad character, so there was no way to subdue her with force and witchcraft, and the two sides could only consume it like this.

"Master, don't do this." Xu Zhaohua said to the ghost lady.

"Then you say you understand the pain in my heart, no, you don't understand at all!" The Ghost Lady said with tears in her eyes.

Xu Zhaohua took a few steps forward: "Master, I have a child." The ghost lady's expression changed, a little excited, and a little happy.

Xu Zhaohua continued: "But he died, and he died in my womb before he was born, because of the witchcraft that Sui Chen gave me at the beginning, and I also lost my own child." ”

Mrs. Ghost's expression was stunned, this change made her feel a little incredible, but since Xu Zhaohua said so, she reluctantly accepted it after looking at her much thinner face.

"But revenge for the child can't be done in this way, master, those soldiers are also other people's children!" Xu Zhaohua said.

The ghost lady slowly shed tears, and she walked in front of Xu Zhaohua step by step: "Zhaohua, I'm sorry. Now let's get those soldiers to their rescue. ”
