Knowing that Lin Qingwan was going to Hongzhou instead, Lin Yubin was a little worried, it was also the front line, so she came back from Youzhou and went to Hongzhou, she was always a little uneasy in her heart.

Lin Qingwan touched her head and smiled: "I only hope that there will be no war in the place where you will live in the future, if I can avoid you from leaving chaos in the future if I run around now, it will all be worth it." What's more, this is no longer for anyone, in his position, for his government, now this is my responsibility. ”

Lin Yubin rested his head on her lap and asked in a low voice, "Then what can I do for you?" ”

Lin Qingwan stroked her hair and said with a smile: "There are so many things you can do, if you have a heart, you can always find it yourself, and my aunt will no longer make up her mind for you." ”

Lin Yubin's eyes were red, and then she really felt that she had really grown up and was about to leave her aunt's wings, she was a little reluctant to lie on Lin Qingwan's lap and didn't move.

Lin Qingwan patted her shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, it's not too early, go back to sleep." ”

"I'm not going back, I'm going to sleep with my aunt tonight."

Lin Qingwan smiled, "It's okay." ”

At night, the aunt and nephew were lying on the bed, because it was hot, Bai Feng lowered the curtain to isolate the insects and opened the window.

The night breeze gently blew the light veil, and Lin Yubin felt a coolness, Lin Qingwan had already pulled up the quilt to cover her, and she couldn't help but open her eyes and look to the side.

The moonlight sprinkled on Lin Qingwan's face through the light veil, making her expression softened by three points, and Lin Yubin asked in a low voice, "Auntie, is my father still watching us from the sky?" ”

Lin Qingwan was stunned, she didn't expect Lin Yubin to still remember this, she was young at that time, and now that seven years have passed, she thinks she has forgotten.

Lin Yubin always kept this matter in mind, looked at Lin Qingwan with blazing eyes and said, "Even if my aunt goes to the border pass, my father will bless my aunt to be safe and sound, right?" ”

Lin Qingwan smiled and bowed, "Yes! ”

Lin Yubin lay back on the pillow and said blankly: "But I always feel that my aunt was lying to me at the beginning, how can a person be in heaven when he dies?" ”

Lin Qingwan couldn't help but chuckle, "Then you ask now, do you believe it or not?" ”

Lin Yubin pulled up the quilt and covered his face and said, "I believe it, so that my aunt will always have my father to protect her, well, and my uncle!" ”

Lin Qingwan chuckled, your uncle won't protect me, he is estimated to have been reincarnated with your aunt now, and I don't know where my childhood sweetheart is at this time.

"You have to take care of yourself after I leave," Lin Qingwan patted her hand and said: "If you have something, discuss it with Mingjie, how filial you are to the old lady, it is normal for the old man to be eccentric, you don't have to mind too much." ”

Lin Yubin responded in a low voice.

Lin Qingwan whispered again: "As for Kang'er, you don't have to be too strict, just take him the same way I take you, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, you just need to ensure that he grows up healthy and happy, and the rest is as fate would have it." ”

"Doesn't my aunt want him to take over the Lin family in the future?"

Lin Qingwan smiled and said indifferently: "Your grandfather wanted to divide the clan a long time ago, but we are the descendants, and only the side branches are separated, and there is no reason for the descendants to leave, so they have been reluctant to be the patriarch." If you can do a good job of your cousin, why not change the position of patriarch to them from now on? ”

Lin Yubin was silent.

Lin Qingwan touched her head and said, "You are a smart child, and you are empathetic, and you know how to be considerate of Mingjie, so you should also be considerate of your own children in the future, right?" ”

Lin Qingwan nodded thoughtfully.

"The most important thing to build a family is a straight word, and the rest, just follow the fate." Lin Qingwan saw that she had been preparing for Kang'er's enlightenment after the age of three in the past few days, for fear that she would help her sprouts, so she only mentioned it today.

She knew that she asked Kang'er to follow the surname Lin, and the information revealed was too much pressure on her.

Lin Yubin took a while to realize that her aunt was comforting her, she couldn't help but hug her waist, leaned on her arms and said, "Auntie, Yubin can't bear you." ”

Lin Qingwan has always raised her as a daughter, and she herself was reluctant, so she patted her shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, I will come back safely." ”

Lin Yubin's nose was sour, buried in her arms and did not speak.

The aunt and nephew said the words of companionship, and when Lin Qingwan woke up, Lin Yubin was still sleeping soundly.

Recently, she still let the child eat her own milk, so she always can't sleep well at night, although she handed the child to the nurse last night, but she always can't sleep well, and she just slept at this time.

Lin Qingwan quietly got out of bed, took her coat and went to the outer room to change.

She shushed and asked Bai Feng to be quieter, and then instructed Ying Yan, "Don't wake her up, let her sleep more." ”

Ying Yan said worriedly: "Grandma, if the eldest lady can't send you, she will definitely be sad when she wakes up." ”

Lin Qingwan smiled, "It's not life and death, what's sad?" Tell her that I will come back in as little as two months, or as little as half a year. ”

Hongzhou is much closer to Suzhou, when she wants to go back to Beijing, she can go around to Suzhou first, although it is a little troublesome, but can she take the opportunity to go home to see, right?

This time there was no rush when I went to Liaoguo for peace talks last time, and Hongzhou was quite rich, so Lin Qingwan brought Bai Feng and them all.

Just streamlined the luggage, and the group drove to Hongzhou simply.

At the same time, Lin Shi and the others also set off for the capital, and they all went out from the West City Gate, but Lin Qingwan and they had to leave first.

When Lin Shi and the others escorted the goods to the West City Gate, Lin Qingwan had already left and disappeared, but only from the discussion of the vendors at the city gate, they knew that Lin Qingwan was gone.

They were not worthy of Lin Qingwan going to Hongzhou, and thought that they were going to the same capital as them, so they ordered the caravan to speed up and wanted to enter Beijing with her, so that there would be some care on the way.

When they hurried and hurried, they couldn't catch up, and they didn't see Lin Qingwan's convoy again after inquiring, so they realized that they were not going the same way.

But they didn't take it to heart, thinking that they would always see it when they got to the capital.

As soon as the eighth uncle died, whether it was Lin Shi or Lin Twelve, they all wanted to repair the relationship with Lin Qingwan.

She is in charge of the mutual market, and they will have to live by her face in the future.

Lin Qingwan didn't know that someone was trying to please her, at this time she was sitting in the carriage reading the letter, and Yi Han was sitting aside.

She smiled and said, "This time, Mr. Yao also accompanied him, it seems that our painting is worth it." ”

"Isn't the county lord distressed?" Yi Han frowned and said: "That's the sage Lao Tzu's picture, it's hard to find." ”

"It's not mine, where does the distress come from?" Lin Qingwan put away the letter and said with a smile: "What's more, this picture is priceless in the hands of people who know how to appreciate it, and in my case, it is just a painting of great value." ”

"Even if the other party is a traitor?"

"Who said that traitors can't have artistic accomplishments?" Lin Qingwan smiled, "Although this Lord Song is not upright enough, he is still wronged by saying that he is a traitor." ”

Yi Han didn't speak.

"I don't know if Mr. Yao is willing to go through this experience."

Yi Han thought for a while and said, "Actually, I can sneak into the Chu State and hand over the painting to Mr. Ji." ”

Lin Qingwan shook her head and said, "If no one convinces him, it's useless to give him a painting." ”

"The county lord shouldn't go in person, right?" Yi Han looked at her suspiciously.

Lin Qingwan smiled and nodded: "I still cherish my life very much, Yao Shi went and was found to be able to live, but I have no hope of living, so don't worry, I won't go." ”

Yi Han breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't want to get out of danger again.

When Lin Qingwan arrived in Hongzhou, Min Shangshu and Yao Shi of the Ministry of War had already arrived first, and Zhong Ruying's adjutant general personally came to pick up Lin Qingwan.

Lin Qingwan hurriedly asked, "How is your general?" ”

The adjutant general turned sideways and said, "The general is waiting for the county lord in the big camp, and the county lord will know when he arrives." ”

Lin Qingwan and Yi Han glanced at each other, and they were both relieved, the deputy general said so, then it is estimated that it will be fine.

She followed the adjutant general to the camp, now it is the stage of war preparation, martial law in the camp, Lin Qingwan looked all the way, and saw that everyone's morale was okay, so she was more relieved.

As soon as they arrived near the main tent, there were more soldiers on guard, Lin Qingwan followed the deputy general to the main tent, and the soldiers standing at the tent door glanced at Lin Qingwan before going in to report.

Zhong Ruying quickly brought someone to greet her, "My sister is finally here!" ”

Zhong Ruying opened the curtain and couldn't help but smile when she looked at her, "I've been counting on my fingers since the day Min Shangshu came, and today I finally waited for someone." ”

Lin Qingwan looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "It seems that my sister is fine." ”

Zhong Ruying stepped forward and grabbed her hand, led the person into the main tent, and said with a smile: "It's just a scrape, it's not a serious injury, just rest for two days." ”

In the main tent, a group of people were discussing around a map, and when they saw Lin Qingwan coming in, they all stood up and saluted.

Lin Qingwan returned the salute.

After finishing the salute, Min Shangshu clasped his hands and smiled: "Lin Shangshu is not harmed. ”

"Min Shangshu is polite," Lin Qingwan looked at Yao behind him, and bowed again: "Since I came back from Youzhou, I haven't come to see Mr. Yao yet." ”

Yao Shi hurriedly returned the salute, "The county lord is polite, I should come to the door." ”

"Okay, okay, let's not be polite," Zhong Ruying said with a smile: "Since my sister has arrived, let's start, the envoys of Shu have been waiting for a long time." “

Among the people present, except for the court officials brought by Min Shangshu, only Zhong Ruying's subordinates were there.

Min Shangshu and others have already learned Lin Qingwan's skills, and they will not despise her, and Zhong Ruying's subordinates will naturally not embarrass Lin Qingwan because of Zhong Ruying's trust.

So it's less run-in and goes straight to the topic.

Zhong Ruying was assassinated when she went out to inspect, she reacted in time, only stabbed once, and was blocked by the heart guard, only scratching her chest.

But the luck on the side of Shu was not very good, one of the generals was stabbed to death, and two generals were seriously injured.

Although the Assassins were all ambushed in the end, the losses on both sides were somewhat large.

And Xiang Shancai commanded people to repel the Liang army, forcing them to withdraw from the Chu capital, the morale of the other party was high, and Zhong Ruying led the troops to retreat by being injured.

In order to preserve strength.

Although Liang and Shu were allied before, they fought their own battles, you fight from west to east, I attack from east to west, and how much territory is counted as each.

But at this time, it is possible for the Chu State to break free, and of course it is impossible for the two countries to fight separately, so they plan to unite their forces together, and even the battle plan must be together.
