Chapter 65 The dragon and the phoenix

In the battle of "Xifeng Ridge", although Ji Dian was severely injured and Yin Feng was stabbed, the "Flame Palm" destroyed the strength of Yin Feng and Wu Yun, and Chen Wenqi himself was also greatly injured. The external injuries to the right arm and back, although they did not hurt the muscles and bones, were red and swollen, and pus and blood flowed out; the most serious was the internal injury, which was fatally hit by Yin Feng's meteor hammer that day, and because of the failure to resist, all the internal organs were shocked, not only the true qi dissipated, but also the organs also oozed blood. According to the results of several military doctors' consultations in the General Military Office, the prescription of the white-haired mother-in-law Zhu Yiyun is relatively stable and appropriate, while stopping bleeding and building muscles, while promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, the prognosis effect is relatively optimistic. However, it may be necessary to recuperate for several months without strenuous activity.

Therefore, after Xia Yao and Chen Wenqi discussed, they wrote four copies of the recital to the imperial court. Because the Mongols refused to abide by the contract, they regained the three cities of Jingzhou, Pingluo, and Lingzhou and the areas under their jurisdiction by force, annihilating more than 23,000 Mongol troops (including the "new annexed army") and capturing (including surrendering) more than 6,000 (including 5,000 of the "new annexed army"), and the enemy chieftain Abahai was defeated and killed by himself; our army suffered more than 12,000 casualties. Peng Chuanjun and four other generals of more than 1,000 generals were killed in battle, and the promotion and reward of meritorious soldiers in this battle and the posthumous pension of the fallen soldiers will be announced to the imperial court after the approval of the military department, the official department, the household department, and other yamen. Second, Chen Wenqi, the minister of the Qin Mission and the deputy envoy of the Imperial Mission, was seriously injured and could not return to Beijing to pay the decree for the time being, but the cold winter was approaching, and the expeditionary force lacked the necessary equipment such as clothing, so it was planned that Lu Wan, a member of the military department, would lead the expeditionary force to return to the DPRK in advance. Third, after this battle, the garrison army was reduced a lot, and the three cities that had just been recovered had to be garrisoned by soldiers and horses, so it was planned to transfer 8,000 soldiers from the expeditionary force to stay in Ningxia, and after the soldiers and horses requisitioned by the imperial court arrived, the remaining soldiers would return to their original structure. Fourth, in order to show the benevolence of the Celestial Empire, the Mongolian prisoners of war who were captured (surrendered) in this battle are willing to be taken to the border for release by taking a pledge of repentance, and those who are resolutely refused to make a confession of repentance will be filled into the camp of Zhuangding in the army; the officers and men of the "new attached army" who were recruited by the former imperial court to guard the three guards of the Hetao and were later held hostage by Ximen Feng, Leng Wubing, Xiahou Shuang, and others to defect to the enemy, except those who have defected to the enemy and betrayed the country with all their hearts, are exempted from the crime of "rebellion", and are dismissed on the spot, and allowed to return to their hometowns and reunite with their families.

More than a month later, the court herald came to Phoenix City to read the emperor's decree. In addition to being "very gratified" by the "great gratification" of the three guards of the Hetao as scheduled and "deeply deploring" the defeat of the dead soldiers, Zhu Youzhu also clearly "approved" the Ningxia General Military Palace's recitals, and at the same time, the chief soldier Xia Yao and the staff general Qin Sen chose an "appropriate time" to return to Beijing to report on their work, and jointly planned the promotion (posthumous award), reward, and bereavement of the brigadier soldiers with the Yamen of Yousi.

For many days after that, Xia Yao proceeded to adjust the deployment of Ningxia Zhuwei and select temporary local officials according to his order; Lu Wan, Qin Zong, Lu Jianqun, and other generals came to say goodbye to Chen Wenqi, and so on.

It is said that Chen Wenqi has been in bed for more than a month, and the external injuries on his arms and back have faded from redness and swelling, and have gradually healed and scabbed, but the recovery of internal injuries is slow, and he cannot get out of bed and move. Shen Lingshan has been waiting carefully day and night, but she can't be replaced. Chen Wenqi was moved, firstly, he was afraid of the difference between men and women, and secondly, he felt sorry for Shen Lingshan, so dirty and heavy work such as stripping and changing dressings was resolutely not allowed to Shen Lingshan to do it himself. At this time, Li Yuan and Ren Si had already returned to Shuozhou with their mother and daughter, and Xia Yao arranged for him to be a clever and capable soldier to take care of his daily life.

One day, Shen Qing came to visit Chen Wenqi after handling official business, and couldn't help but be very happy to see that Chen Wenqi's wound was basically healed and his complexion had improved greatly. When it came to internal injuries, Shen Qing took the initiative to propose to infuse Chen Wenqi with true qi to help him gradually open up the closed veins and speed up the treatment of internal injuries. Although Chen Wenqi knew that this method was indeed twice the result with half the effort for the treatment of internal injuries, he did not want to consume the internal strength of others, so he did not agree at first, but seeing Shen Qing's sincere persistence and Shen Lingshan's persuasion, he had no choice but to "be respectful rather than obey his fate".

Although Shen Lingshan and Chen Wenqi are lovers, so far, the two have only held hands when their affection is strong. Seeing that Shen Qing wanted to help Chen Wenqi get through the veins, he said to the two: "I'll go outside to protect the Dharma for you." Without waiting for them to reply, he retreated to the door with a red face and sat on the threshold on the threshold to be on guard in case anyone inadvertently entered.

Shen Qing slowly helped Chen Wenqi up and gently took off his shirt for him. Suddenly, Shen Qing's hand stopped moving. Immediately after, his heart trembled, his body trembled, and his brain went blank for a moment, no, it was just a moment, and then it set off a violent wind and waves: he saw a pendant on Chen Wenqi's bare chest. This pendant is one of the people, things, and things that he has dreamed of for 18 years. Eighteen years ago, this pendant flowed south with the swaddling clothes floating on the river, merging into the turbulent Yangtze River, and disappeared from his world with his Ji'er. I thought that I would never see each other again in this life, but now it suddenly appeared in front of me, close at hand and within reach. He had no doubt about the uniqueness of this semi-heart-shaped hollow phoenix jade, except for the hollow dragon jade that he personally wore on his wife Han Mei's neck, there was no second jade bi in this world that was the same. However, is the person with the jade bi around his neck in front of him Ji'er, who has been separated for 18 years and whose life and death are still unknown, or the boy next door? His heart was beating "suddenly", and perhaps the truth would be revealed in the next time. He swallowed his saliva to moisten his dry throat, ready for a heart-to-heart exchange with the jade-bearing man.

"General Qin, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Wenqi's voice seemed to come from outside the sky, so faint, so distant. It wasn't until Chen Wenqi gently pushed that Shen Qing suddenly realized that he instantly dispelled the idea just now, and when they meet, they can't be abrupt!

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. General Chen, you will relax your body, and I will begin to breathe into the True Qi now. Shen Qingqiang calmed his mind, sat cross-legged behind Chen Wenqi, pressed his palms against the Shentang acupoint on Chen Wenqi's back, and slowly poured his true qi into Chen Wenqi's body.

After a long time, Shen Qing's head began to sweat, and his internal strength was a little weak. Chen Wenqi felt his hands trembling slightly, and said, "General Qin, rest for a while, don't be in a hurry." ”

Shen Qing retracted his internal force, let go of his palms, helped Chen Wenqi lie down, and asked, "How do you feel?"

"Thank you General Qin, I feel a lot more comfortable. Chen Wenqi thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

"That's good, from tomorrow onwards, I will spend your True Qi once a day, so that the internal injuries will heal faster. ”

"In this way, it will be hard for General Qin. Chen Wenqi said apologetically and did not refuse his kindness.

"It's nothing, it's just a gesture. After Shen Qing finished speaking, he remembered the previous incident again, and although he decided not to ask each other again, he still couldn't help but want to look at the jade bi again, so he said, "General Chen, I ...... it."

"General Qin, if there is anything you can say. ”

"I ...... I want to see the jade around your neck. Shen Qing said embarrassedly.

Chen Wenqi took off the jade bi, handed it to Shen Qing, and said, "General Qin thinks this jade bi is a little strange, doesn't he?" When his father handed over the jade bi to him, he was also surprised by this shape, so he thought that Shen Qing was just like himself.

"Well, it's a little. Shen Qing prevaricated.

Rubbing the phoenix jade, Shen Qing seemed to feel the breath of his beloved wife Han Mei and smell the milk fragrance on his beloved son Ji'er, the corners of his eyes were a little damp, his breathing was much heavier, and he couldn't help but let out a dull "hum" sound in his throat.

Shen Lingshan, who was protecting the Dharma outside the door, always paid attention to the movements inside, and when she heard a muffled snort, she thought something had happened, and hurriedly walked into the room, and saw Chen Wenqi lying on the bed peacefully, and "General Qin" was also sitting on the edge of the bed, and her heart was settled.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the jade bi in Shen Qing's hand, and hurriedly touched his neck with his hand, and at the same time exclaimed: "Hey, this is not my ......"

Halfway through speaking, he stopped, and it turned out that his hand had already touched something on his neck. Then he asked curiously, "General Qin, what is this in your hand?"

Shen Qing stretched out his hand and said, "This is your brother-in-law's pendant, be careful." ”

Shen Lingshan took the jade bi and looked at it, and shouted in a lost voice: "There is such a coincidental thing in the world......? And...... It's exactly the same? No, it's different, it's a phoenix. ”

After speaking, he put the jade bi into Shen Qing's hand, turned around and ran out.

"Virtuous brotherβ€”"

"Miss Yangβ€”"

Chen Wenqi and Shen Qing didn't know what was going on, and shouted at the same time.

After a while, Shen Lingshan's face was flushed and panting and ran back, snatching the jade in Shen Qing's hand with her right hand, turning over with her left hand, and holding a piece of jade with the same shape, I saw that she put the two pieces of jade together, and immediately put together a seamless heart-shaped jade, a dragon and a phoenix flew towards each other, implying that the dragon and the phoenix were auspicious!

The dragon and phoenix combined, and the three people in the room were dumbfounded and surprised.

Shen Lingshan and Chen Wenqi were two young, and they thought this thing was too incredible. One of the two is in Wuchang and the other is in Huangzhou, separated by a hundred miles, the two families have never had any contact, the two have never known each other, why are the ornaments so identical, and they are all together? Is this the fate of the legend? No, among these two pieces of jade, there must be a little-known story, when to return home, you must ask your father and mother to tell you a careful understanding.

The most shocked of the three was Shen Qing. He was not surprised that the two pieces of jade were so perfect when they were put together, but that the person wearing them suddenly appeared in front of him. Looking at Chen Wenqi and Shen Lingshan, who were like golden boys and girls in front of him, Shen Qing couldn't help but take them into his arms and talk about his feelings after a long absence.

However, after all, he has experienced the hardships of life and death, family ruin, and has endured the torment of 18 years of separation of his wife and bitter lovesickness. He conjured up a scene he had never seen before: the swaddling clothes floating on the surface of the river, pushed to the shore by the wind and waves, passers-by picked it up and took a look, the baby was dying in the swaddling clothes, and there was no way to return to the sky, but the jade around the baby's neck was very cute, and the passers-by took off the jade and threw the swaddling clothes into the river...... Wu Yun's steel fan opened and closed from time to time, even cutting with thorns, and the junior brother and sister were finally defeated, together with Ming'er and Xuemei, they were taken to the capital by Wu Yun and Liang De, and handed over to Liang Fang, and the Jiaolong jade on the junior sister was also searched by Liang Fang......

Shen Qing slowly calmed down, thinking about everything that was happening in front of him. The appearance of two pieces of jade, after all, is not a bad thing, eighteen years of clueless searching, has never found a trace of the family, through these two pieces of jade, maybe you can find the whereabouts of your relatives. Suddenly, he remembered that when he was searching for the missing Chen Wenqi a few days ago, Shen Lingshan had said that she had learned the family swordsmanship from her mother, so why not try it today? If she really used the swordsmanship, she would be her own daughter.

Shen Qing stood up and said to the two children who were still surprised: "You guys talk first, I'll come when I go." "Then go out and go.

Although Chen Wenqi and Shen Lingshan were surprised, they didn't know the origin of Yubi, and they had nothing to say for a while. Shen Lingshan brought the phoenix jade bi to Chen Wenqi's neck, and said slightly shyly: "I didn't think we would ......" Before he finished speaking, he heard Shen Qing shouting softly outside the door: "Miss Yang, you come out." ”

Shen Lingshan was very strange, General Qin, what is he looking for me? She glanced at Chen Wenqi, and when she saw Chen Wenqi nodding slightly, she looked at Chen Wenqi and smiled, got up and walked outside.

Shen Qing held a sword in each hand and said to Shen Lingshan: "A few days ago, I heard that Miss Yang said that she had practiced the family swordsmanship from Lingtang, and Qin was happy to see the hunt and wanted to ask for a few tricks, I wonder if the girl can teach her?"

Shen Lingshan was originally a delicate and transparent woman, hearing that he wanted to fight with him for no reason, she was stunned at first, and immediately thought of Chen Wenqi's words that Chen Wenqi guessed that his father should be by Grandpa Xia's side, could it be him?

Just thinking about it, Chen Wenqi inside said: "Brother Xian, what are you still doing in a daze? General Qin is going to instruct you on your swordsmanship." ”

"Oh. Shen Lingshan took Shen Qing's sword, walked to the next stand, she knew that the other party would not strike first as an elder, so she put on a starting gesture, "General Qin, there is an arrogance." ”

After speaking, starting from the first style of the seven moves of the sword sword technique and the phoenix spectrum, the seven moves and forty-nine styles were used one by one, and Shen Qing also used the sword to launch a "confrontation" with Shen Lingshan. It's very wonderful, the two sword moves are different, but each sword, but "just right" to make up for the loopholes of the opponent's sword moves, although it is a battle, but it seems to join forces against the enemy, you attack and I defend, you defend and I attack, complement each other, complement each other.

The more Shen Lingshan "fought", the more excited she became, she didn't expect that there were still two kinds of interdependent and complementary swordsmanship in the world (her uncle Han Ming also learned the seven strokes of the phoenix spectrum with Han Mei, so she didn't know that the sword swordsmanship and the combination of the phoenix and the phoenix were combined), and she forgot the original intention of practicing the swordsmanship for a while, and after finishing the last style, she unconsciously started from the beginning, so that she "fought" with Shen Qing more than a hundred times before and after.

Shen Qing saw that the sword technique she used was like a cloud, and knew that she was not a three-trick two-style trick that she had learned secretly, and since then he has confirmed that she is his daughter. Although he recognized the woman, he saw that she was tired of it, so he accompanied him to "fight" all the time.

Chen Wenqi vaguely saw the scene of the two "fighting" through the gap in the door, and he also knew the pros and cons of this set of swordsmanship, and applauded and said: "Luan and Feng are combined, and the momentum is really extraordinary." ”

Shen Qing and Shen Lingshan stopped when they heard this, and returned to reality from focusing on swordsmanship, the father and daughter stood together so close for the first time, like a dream, and they didn't know where to start with a thousand words.

"Congratulations to General Qin, no, congratulations to uncle, congratulations to Miss Shen, congratulations on your father-daughter reunion. Miss Shen, why don't you call Daddy?" Chen Wenqi reminded in the back room.

"Daddy, are you really my daddy?" Shen Lingshan muttered with tears streaming down her face.

"Kid, I'm the dad you're looking for. Shen Qing was also in tears, and replied with a snort.

"Daddy, my daughter is looking for you so hard. Shen Lingshan threw down the sword and plunged into Shen Qing's arms, crying loudly.

Shen Qing hugged Shen Lingshan tightly, and she couldn't cry.

"Daddy, my mother is looking at each other every day, and my uncle is looking around every year, looking for 18 years, looking for thousands of miles, but there is no news of my father, we ...... We're all desperate. Shen Lingshan said while crying.

Shen Qing's nose was sour, tears flowed straight down, and he also choked up and said, "Over the years, my father has been looking for you everywhere." ”

"Daddy, your daughter has been here for a few months, why didn't you recognize your daughter earlier?" Shen Lingshan said complainingly.

"It's my dad who is bad, it's my dad who is not good, and I've wronged my Shan'er. Shen Qing gently patted Shen Lingshan's back and said apologetically.

Chen Wenqi said with a smile in the back room: "Miss Shen, you have never told your uncle that you are looking for your father." ”

"No, I know. When you talked to Mr. Xia that day, I was in the inner wing, and I heard your conversation clearly. Shen Qing wiped away Shen Lingshan's tears, took her hand, and returned to the house.

Shen Lingshan calmed down a little at this time, and when she heard that her father was in the wing room at the time, she said coquettishly: "Daddy, since you heard us talk, why didn't you come out to recognize Shan'er? Grandpa Xia is too, why don't you let our father and daughter recognize each other?"

"Alas, it's also because Daddy and your Grandpa Xia are too cautious, afraid that you are a spy sent by Liang Fang and Liang De brothers to spy on our whereabouts. Shen Qing replied embarrassedly. There is another doubt that has not been spoken: I didn't have you when I was separated from your mother.

"Daddy, don't you want to think about it, if the people sent by Liang Fang and Liang De brothers are together, how can they be with the eldest brother, and the eldest brother still trusts 'him' so much?" After speaking, he looked at Chen Wenqi, although tears were still hanging in his eyes, his face was full of sweetness.

When Shen Qing saw her expression, his heart couldn't help but sink, and secretly said that his daughter's fate was really bitter, and she had just found her father, maybe she would ...... again

At this time, he didn't have time to think too much, and said with a guilty face: "But we don't know General Chen either." General Chen is not strange. ”

"What's the strange thing about understanding?" Chen Wenqi smiled generously.

"Daddy, you really don't know much about Big Brother. The eldest brother has long been the rival of the Liang Fang brothers and the 'Lingnan Eight Murderers'. Shen Lingshan then talked to her father about how Chen Wenqi controlled Hao Huai and Dou Danxue, and how he was not afraid of being implicated and advanced and retreated with him.

After hearing this, Shen Qing stood up and bowed to Chen Wenqi, and thanked: "Thank you General Chen Gaoyi." ”

"Uncle, the little nephew and Ling Yan are married to Jin Lan, don't call General Chen General Chen, just call me 'Wen Qi'. ”

"yes, Daddy, it sounds really awkward to call me that. He's my eldest brother, you're your junior, so just call him by his name. Shen Lingshan echoed.

"That'...... Okay, I'll take care of it. Shen Qing readily agreed.

Shen Lingshan was still immersed in the joy of finding her father, she remembered that Grandpa Xia had asked for a "token", so she said to Shen Qing: "Daddy, is this jade bi a token?"

Shen Qing nodded: "Of course, this piece of jade was personally worn by your father on your mother's neck." ”

"If I knew this, my daughter would have taken it down, didn't our father and daughter recognize each other a long time ago?" Shen Lingshan said regretfully. Suddenly remembered Chen Wenqi's piece of jade, and hurriedly asked: "Daddy, why is it so coincidental, the eldest brother's piece of jade and the daughter's piece can just be put together, and it is seamless?

Shen Qing knew that this was not the time to tell the truth, so he said vaguely: "This...... Oh, your grandmother gave your mother this piece of jade to marry, and your mother should know its origin. As for Wen Qi's piece, I ...... Haven't seen it. Hey, Wen Qi, when I tried my sword with Shan'er just now, how did you know that it was Luan Feng combined?"

The jade on the neck and the jade of the righteous sister are perfectly combined, and the sword spectrum given by the father is the family swordsmanship of the righteous sister's father and daughter, which is by no means a coincidence. What is the origin? Chen Wenqi was a little puzzled, but he didn't understand what he was puzzled about. At this time, Shen Qingxiang asked, just to find out the truth. He took out the sword book from the pillow, handed it to Shen Qing, and said, "Uncle must know this sword book, right?"

Shen Qing took it and saw that it was the sword book that his father-in-law Han Shen handed over to him back then. Since Chen Wenqi has a phoenix jade book, it is not surprising that this sword book is on him, but it is strange that the sword book does not indicate the combination of Luan and Fengbi, how did he know about it? He decided to use this as an excuse to explore Chen Wenqi's secret, so he replied: "This sword book is your family heirloom?"

Chen Wenqi shook his head and said truthfully: "Before going to the capital to take the exam, my father stuffed it into my little nephew's bag, saying that I got it by accident. ”

Shen Qing was sure that the person who picked up the swaddling clothes was Chen Wenqi's father, but whether Chen Wenqi in front of him was the baby in swaddling clothes still needed to be further identified. He decided not to tell the secret of breaking the sword spectrum for the time being, so he said: "Shan'er and I are taught by Shan'er's grandfather himself, I don't know if his old man has a sword spectrum." Could it be that the moves in this sword book are similar to those of our grandfather?"

Chen Wenqi originally planned to take this opportunity to return the sword spectrum to its original owner, but at this time, seeing that he wanted to say goodbye, he must have something unspeakable. But in any case, it is necessary to tell him the secret of the sword spectrum, so that they can save the deviation and make up for the shortcomings as soon as possible, and truly carry forward the sword technique.

"Please forgive the little nephew for bluntly saying that it is the kung fu that my uncle practiced in this Luan book, and Miss Shen practiced the kung fu in a book called Feng Book. But no matter whether it is Luan Spectrum or Phoenix Spectrum, it contains moves that have been tampered with, and the real sword technique is much more subtle, and of course it is much more powerful. ”

When Shen Qing and Shen Lingshan heard this, they were both taken aback, could it be that the martial arts they had practiced for decades were actually tricks that had been tampered with? It was simply unbelievable.

Shen Lingshan took the sword book from her father's hand, quickly flipped through a few pages, and asked puzzledly: "Big brother, this is a genuine handiwork, I don't see any traces of alteration." ”

"This is simply a falsified book, not an alteration of the authentic sword pedigree. Chen Wenqi said with a smile.

"Then, how do you know that this is a tampered version, and where is the real sword spectrum?" asked Shen Lingshan.

"You go and light the candles. ”

It was still early, and Shen Lingshan didn't know what he was doing with the candles, but seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, he put the sword book on the bed, got up and went to the candlestick in the room to take the candle, shook the fire fold, and lit the candle.

Chen Wenqi took the sword book on the bed, opened the cover, pointed to the first page and said to Shen Lingshan: "Go, put it close to the candle and bake it slowly, be careful not to burn it." ”

Shen Lingshan looked puzzled, took the sword book and leaned to the candle.

"Slightly closer, roasted from the book's brow. Chen Wenqi prompted.

"Daddy, come and see, there is handwriting on the book brow. Shen Lingshan suddenly exclaimed.

Shen Qing hurriedly took a closer look, but no, a dense fly-headed block appeared in the blank space of the sword spectrum, and the handwriting was clearly visible.

"I am Zhou Tianye, the seventh generation of the sword technique. Ancestor 'Shaanxi Hero Iron Arm' Zhou Tong ......" Shen Lingshan said in a low voice.

Shen Qing said with emotion: "I didn't expect that the swordsmanship that I have practiced for decades turned out to be ...... No wonder the master once said that this set of swordsmanship was 'not smooth enough, and the combination of the two swords was only unsatisfactory', it turned out that Zhou Tianye's seniors did it deliberately. I don't know which generation of the Zhou family brought this secret to the grave for what reason, and it was spread in a fallacious way. How did the virtuous nephew know this secret?"

By saying this, he invisibly admitted that this sword book had a lot to do with him.

Chen Wenqi told Shen Qing and Shen Lingshan what he had found in the edict, and then asked, "Uncle, is that 'phoenix book' in the hands of my aunt?"

Shen Qing groaned and didn't answer, Shen Lingshan said: "Yes, my mother's sword book is indeed 'Sword Technique Phoenix Spectrum'. But she didn't understand why this book was in the hands of her brother-in-law.

In fact, Shen Lingshan and Chen Wenqi are both extremely smart people, and they should be regarded as double pairs of jade bi and sword spectrum, but they are in the hands of the two (in the hands of Han Mei is equivalent to in the hands of Shen Lingshan), and there must be a shocking secret in them. But Shen Qing seemed to be secretive about this, and the two had no choice but to force their inquisitive hearts, and prepared to ask their respective parents for a clear understanding after returning home.

"That's right. Since Shen Qing was reluctant to tell the origin of the sword spectrum, Chen Wenqi simply did not mention the question of its ownership, and said to Shen Qing: "Uncle, from today onwards, you will practice according to the real sword technique, I believe that in a few months, uncle's sword sword technique will be reborn." As for Miss Shen, she has to wait until she returns to her home in Wuchang Mansion and practices the kung fu of the phoenix spectrum. Oh, I almost forgot, there is also an extremely subtle internal strength method hidden in this sword book, 'Yi Marrow Gong', which can speed up the cultivation of internal strength. Miss Shen has already memorized the cultivation method, and before she has practiced the sword technique, she can concentrate on cultivating her internal strength. ”

Shen Qing said in embarrassment: "I'm afraid this is not appropriate, right? How can I ...... the sword score of my virtuous nephew?"

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Wenqi intercepted and said: "Uncle, my father said that this sword book was obtained by him unintentionally, and it should not belong to his little nephew, but he was lonely in prison, and he couldn't help but be curious. However, the little nephew swore to the heavens in prison: 'Practicing the sword technique is only used to practice chivalrous righteousness, eliminate violence and peace, help the people and serve the country, and never bully the weak or bully the good to oppress the good; Since my uncle studied under Han Shen's predecessors to practice the sword technique, and the phoenix book is in the hands of my aunt, even if he is not the heir of the Zhou family, he has a lot to do with the Zhou family. What's more, the little nephew has already memorized the moves and tips of the sword sword technique and the Yi Marrow Gong method, and it is useless to carry the sword book with him, so the little nephew implores his uncle to keep this sword book, if he meets the heirs of the Zhou family in the future, he can also make the decision for the little nephew and return it to him. ”

"When it comes to this, it would be hypocritical for me to refuse. In that case, I'll take it first. These words were reasonable, and Shen Qing had no reason to refuse, so he had to put the sword book into his arms.

"Uncle, the reunion of father and daughter should be a great joy in life. Why don't you take a leave of absence from Mr. Xia and go back to Wuchang Mansion?" Chen Wenqi was empathetic, Shen Qing found his daughter, and he definitely wanted to return to his relatives all at once. But as a "minister", he is bedridden here, and he will be embarrassed to ask for leave as the deputy of General Xia, so it is better for him to speak.

"Yes, Daddy, go back quickly, my mother wants you to wear it. Shen Lingshan echoed.

"And Miss Shen has been away from home for more than half a year, and my aunt and her old man must be very anxious, besides, if you don't take the road, how will Uncle know where the door is?" Chen Wenqi knew Shen Lingshan's thoughts, so he blocked the words first.

"When my father went back, my mother was relieved to know that I was safe and sound. I'm going to go back together when my eldest brother heals. Daddy, go back first, okay?" Shen Lingshan was afraid that her father would take her with her, so she resorted to the girl's "trick".

Shen Qing smiled, touched Shen Lingshan's hair kindly, and said, "Since your eldest brother calls me uncle, then my uncle can't slip away first, right?" and then said to Chen Wenqi: "Forget it, let's wait for the virtuous nephew's injury to heal, let's go together." ”

"That's not good, I'm afraid I'll have to take three or five months to recover from this injury. You better go first, just in time for the family reunion during the Spring Festival. ”

Shen Qing waved his hand and said: "Eighteen years have passed, I don't care about these few months, it's just decided, early Duanyang, late Mid-Autumn Festival, we will celebrate the festival together in Wuchang Mansion." ”

"It's best that Daddy thinks about it. Shen Lingshan said happily.

"Virtuous nephew, you can sleep for a while. Let's go, Shan'er, I'll take you to see Grandpa Xia and tell him the good news that our father and daughter have recognized each other. ”
