Volume 2 Northern Xinjiang Journey Chapter 138 Divine Decree

Li Yuejiao thought that she was hiding it well, but when she heard Xue Zhen's questioning, she knew that he had already found out, so she couldn't help but smile and continued to help him change the medicine, and asked, "How did the prince find out?"

"I heard you." Xue Zhen said very bluntly, "There was movement on the roof last night, it should be her."

Li Yuejiao's hand to change the medicine stopped, looked at Xue Zhen with a round mouth, and said in surprise, "Can this still be heard?"

Xue Zhen was amused by her appearance, and nodded slowly, "I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, so I can hear - is there something going on?"

Li Yuejiao hesitated.

Xue Zhen's injuries are still serious, and she is only speculating about the old marquis, and he can fight for his own life, so he faces his loved ones......

His body bones are even more irritated now.

Thinking about it, she didn't speak immediately, but changed the medicine for him, stared at him and took the medicine, then looked into his eyes, and said seriously:

"Now, the Son, do you believe in me? If you don't talk about my mother, but after we have experienced life and death together, what is happening now, will the son of the world believe me?"

When Xue Zhen heard her say this, he was quite peaceful, but she was apprehensive.

Chen Sanniang has to say something to make Li Yuejiao so nervous?

He had the heart to ask, but after a pause, he didn't ask the question, but still nodded and said solemnly:

"I believe Madame."

In just four words, he said as heavy as Mount Tai.

Li Yuejiao's expression was a little more relaxed, and she said with a smile:

"Since the prince believes me, don't ask about Sanniang's affairs, wait until Sanniang comes back next time and there is new news, and some things are confirmed, I will naturally explain the matter to the prince and the plate, okay?"

Xue Zhen stared at her for a long time, and finally nodded slowly:

"Okay."

Li Yuejiao smiled, stopped talking, and began to pack her things.

Xue Zhen looked at her figure, and his heart was even more worried.

*

Because of Xue Zhen's body and the difficulty of walking in the snow, their group walked very slowly.

In a blink of an eye, on the tenth day of the lunar month, Li Yuejiao finally returned to Anhua County again.

On the day of entering the city, it has been snowing heavily for four days in the area of Anhua County, and before the snow falls, it is swept up by the strong wind of the northern Xinjiang and raised between the heaven and the earth, so that at a glance, there is only a white expanse between the heaven and the earth.

Xue Zhen's body is now in good condition, and he looks good but is particularly afraid of the cold, but he still asks people to go to the river first.

In such weather, the craftsmen naturally could not start work, and only some people with guns and sticks stayed in the temporary wooden sheds erected before the water conservancy, including Li Yuejiao's "Karakuri Pavilion".

The huge waterwheel loomed in the dim white expanse, like a monster, and it could not be seen at a glance, showing a different grandeur from the wind and the sun.

"It's not slow." After walking along the river for a long time, Xue Zhen roughly counted the water conservancy and bridges that had been built, and exclaimed, "Fortunately, it will not delay next year's spring planting."

Li Yuejiao was a little skeptical: "In such weather, why are the people guarding it? Could it be that someone can't destroy it?"

Thinking about the destruction of the waterwheel bridge before, Li Yuejiao felt that with ingenuity, as well as the forces of the six clans behind them, they could do anything.

Xue Zhen relieved her doubts: "Tap water conservancy is the most important thing for farmers, and it is reasonable for them to worry about wind and snow damage."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Yuejiao: "But Madame is also reasonable, it is said that these water conservancy projects were built by the imperial court, and the guards should also be sent by local troops, otherwise only these people will be right. It's just that the situation in Anhua County is special now...... I'll arrange it."

Li Yuejiao didn't understand this, but she was relieved when she heard Xue Zhen's attention.

After their carriage had made a round by the river in the wind and snow, the donkey carts of the maids and maids behind them, the guards on horseback, and the donkey carts of Du Sun also followed, and the people gathered into the city.

Because of the city gate at the city gate, the wind is slightly lighter, and the snow is not rolled up, so it is natural to see things much more clearly.

And because of the previous war, the guards on the gate of Anhua County are now extremely strict.

The little official on the city gate saw that it was the general Zhenbei and his wife coming, and immediately nodded and greeted, and hurriedly called the city gate official in the city wall house behind him.

It's just that before Xue Zhen could ask the city gate official about the recent entry and exit of the city gate, someone rushed out of the wind and snow in the urn city.

In addition to several lieutenants of Chang Feng and Xue Zhen, there was also Qin Le, who was wrapped in thick cotton clothes, and regardless of other people's eyes, he just rushed to the front of the car and was about to lift the curtain, and asked:

"Senior sister! Is my sister there?"

Before Li Yuejiao could put on her cloak, she had already moved to the side of the car.

As soon as the sisters met, Li Yuejiao immediately felt a lot of grievances in her heart.

On that day, he was assassinated outside the city and saved the grievances of Zheng Xiaoxi, who was seriously injured; was pulled on the horse by Xue Zhen and galloped all the way back to Beijing's grievances; Xue Zhen was arrested, and his father's life and death were uncertain; I don't know if my plan can succeed, I can only wait for the grievances....

When she was at home before, she didn't show it because she was worried about the health of her father and grandmother.

But now that she saw Qin Le, the grievances that she had suppressed finally burst out completely.

It was Li Yuejiao who threw herself into Qin Le's arms regardless of it, buried her head on her shoulder, and cried and called:

"Senior sister."

With only these two choked words, she was speechless, and Qin Le already understood in her heart, so she only hugged her and said in a low voice:

"Silly girl, you ran away all of a sudden, it really scared me to death, and now that you're back, it's all right."

Li Yuejiao cried more and more in the wind and snow, so that the sergeants at the city gate looked stupid and didn't know what was going on.

Xue Zhen watched in the car, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

During these days, they traveled north, because of the common doubts between them, so it was right that the relationship eased, Li Yuejiao was happy every day, even if he occasionally fell into his unknown contemplation, the dimples on his face were like sugar.

He thought she was genuinely happy.

But it turned out that she was laughing in front of herself, but because ...... She doesn't easily reveal her true emotions in front of herself.

Come to think of it, she will only show a little different emotions when she is angry with herself.

But it's just a fleeting moment, she doesn't need him to coax and say good things, she can quickly calm down and still treat herself as usual.

It's not like now, even if Qin Le coaxes her and persuades her in a low voice, she just cries to her heart's content, and she doesn't need to calm down.

Qin Lecai didn't care what others thought in their hearts, he just hugged her and patted her lightly, and said:

"In the past few days, we have repaired a lot of bridges and water conservancy, and even the embankment has been reinforced, there has been too much wind and snow in the past few days, so let's take a good look in a few days."

"We're safe here, but just a few days after you left, there was a battle here, which was terrifying, but soon the enemy army was repulsed."

"Okay, okay, let's stop crying, it's snowing here, let's go home and cry again, okay?"

Qin Le is a very arrogant person, but today he comforted Li Yuejiao, and his words were extremely gentle.

Li Yuejiao was persuaded by her for a while, and then calmed down a little, but she was still sobbing, looking at her aggrievedly and asking:

"Senior sister, what about the sixth elder brother? How is he?"

Qin Le was stunned by her question, and said strangely:

"Who?"

"Sixth brother...... Li Yuejiao looked at her, and suddenly realized, "Didn't senior sister see sixth brother?"

"Is it Brother Zheng?" Qin Le realized who she was talking about, let go of Li Yuejiao, frowned and said, "Isn't he in the capital? He's here? When did it come? Could it be that something happened on the way?"

Li Yuejiao didn't answer her, but turned her head to look at Xue Zhen.

Xue Zhen was unhappy in his heart, so he didn't understand why Li Yuejiao looked at him for a while, and General Wen Longwen, who was full of beard, said simply: "Madam, don't worry, Brother Ling is now placed in the general's mansion, which is good

Very."

Li Yuejiao breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Wen Long would not lie to her about such a thing, she nodded and thanked her:

"Thank you, General Wen."

After she said that, she picked up the cloak from the car and put it on, and asked Xue Zhen, "Shizi, then I will send someone to the General's Mansion and take the sixth brother back?"

Xue Zhen met her suddenly cold gaze, although he understood why, he was extremely unhappy, and he couldn't laugh, so he could only reluctantly say, "I'll let Brother Zheng go to you."

"So, thank you." Li Yuejiao smiled politely at him, but soon smiled, put on her cloak, took Qin Le's hand and said, "Senior sister, let's go home."

Qin Le hesitated a little: "You better take the car back, the wind and snow are too big."

"The prince is busy with government affairs, and I am tired of sitting in the car, so it is better to take a walk."

"Don't be scared, this wind and snow is not a joke, the clouds at home, Mother Tong, Cui Qiao, three sick."

"What's going on? Does it matter?"

"It doesn't really matter, it's better, it's just coughing, otherwise why wouldn't they come to pick you up?"

The two of them held hands with each other, and talked about common things as if no one was around.

Xue Zhen behind him was congested, Du Yan was sitting next to the car because of the registration of the road, and just saw the undercurrent of discord between their husband and wife, and couldn't help but sigh heavily.

was heard by Xue Zhen, and the Hou Shizi of Anyang was even more congested, and even the words of the deputy general and the city gate official next to him rarely missed a few words.

At this time, four horses rode from behind, stopped in front of the city gate, and said sharply, "Is it General Zhenbei in the car in front? The Divine Decree has arrived! Please take the general's order!"

Even Li Yuejiao, who was acting, stopped and looked back.

When Xue Zhen heard this, he got out of the car, and saw that everyone who came was wearing the crimson clothes of the inner court guards, but his face was unrecognizable, so he asked:

"Since a few angels are here to announce the decree, they naturally stay in the general's mansion and set up an incense case, how can they receive the decree here?"

The four guards had already turned over and dismounted, dragged something wrapped in oiled paper, and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty has a word, the will does not need to be declared, the prince and his wife have seen it."

Li Yuejiao didn't want to have her own affairs here, so she had to go side by side with Xue Zhen, and the husband and wife took the order in the snow.

Xue Zhen's holy decree was opened and looked at it with Li Yuejiao.

The part related to Li Yuejiao is the words mentioned by Emperor Jianlong before, who named her a first-class lady.

But the part related to Xue Zhen turned out to be to cut him off from the post of general of Zhenbei and be fined for three years, but he still stayed in his original position, guarded the land and protected the people, and made meritorious contributions.

The same holy decree, two things in one day and one place, suddenly made Li Yuejiao stunned.

Isn't Your Majesty angry?

Didn't Xue Zhen win?

Why did you suddenly change your hexagram?
