"... Dad, my child is gone; Dad, he killed my child; Dad, I hate him; Dad, I wrote him a letter of divorce... Dad, why, why didn't Brother Ning tell me that he was going to marry the princess... Dad I am so sad… "

In the dark room, Zhao Qihua lay in Zhao Geng's arms, crying hoarsely.

General Zhao looked at his daughter who was kneeling in front of him, crying with her face on his knees, and felt great pain in his heart. His daughter has always been flamboyant, pure and proud, when will she be so vulnerable and sensitive? When he saw his daughter appearing here, he couldn't believe that the thin woman in front of him could be his flamboyant and smiling daughter.

Who made her like this? !

Zhao Geng's heart was burning with anger, his eyes were red.

"...Father, I hate them so much...Father, what should I do...Father, brother Ning doesn't like me anymore..."

Hearing his daughter's repeated crying, General Zhao had tears in his eyes, gently stroked her head, and said in a hoarse voice: "Qihua, don't be afraid, there is daddy here, daddy will vent your anger on you, and anyone who bullies you will hurt you." Die badly... "

The sobbing woman never raised her head, as if venting the grievances of the past two years in front of her doting father, crying so disregarding her appearance, until her body couldn't bear such intense emotions, and finally she fell on him arms.

"Qihua, Qihua!" General Zhao cried out in fright.

At this time, a person just came in, General Zhao saw him, and immediately shouted: "A Cong, hurry up and hug Qihua to the bed." Then he shouted outside: "Come on, hurry up and invite the doctor... Wait , go ask the imperial doctor to come over!"

There was a panicked response from the servant girl outside the door, and then the footsteps walked away chaotically.

Lin Cong originally came to see General Zhao for business today, but he didn't expect to be stopped by the maid as soon as he arrived at the door, saying that the young lady and the general were inside. Before he had time to be happy to hear the news of Miss, he heard General Zhao's roar, hurried in, and carried the person who passed out in General Zhao's arms directly to the bed inside.

Soon, the imperial doctor came in a hurry.

Because General Zhao's condition was erratic, when he was the most ill, he stepped into the gate of hell several times, and the time to return to Beijing was delayed again and again. Chu Baning was worried, so he sent two imperial physicians to take turns guarding the general's mansion. With General Zhao's illness, he had to postpone his return trip to Beijing again and again. When the emperor heard about his situation, he was quite understanding and asked him to return to Beijing when he recovered. He was not in a hurry to announce him back. General Zhao has been stationed in Tongcheng all his life. Even though he has already taken over his responsibilities at this time, he is still a respectable general, and the emperor is willing to give him some grace.

General Zhao was supported by Lin Cong into the room, and then sat on the stool brought by the maid.

The imperial doctor took Zhao Qihua's pulse, thought for a moment and said to General Zhao: "General Zhao, Miss Zhao didn't recuperate her body in time after the miscarriage, and the journey was tiring, and she didn't have a good rest, so her body couldn't bear the coma. The old man drove first. Give her some medicine to recuperate her body, but the most important thing is to let Miss Zhao relax and recuperate, so that her emotions can no longer be so ups and downs... "

General Zhao looked stiff, and said lightly: "Physician Sun, I'm sorry to trouble you, go and prescribe medicine."

Physician Sun responded and went down.

After the imperial physician left, General Zhao's expression became completely gloomy. He stared at the maid beside him, and asked, "Xiaolu, why did Miss become like this? Her child..." General Zhao couldn't continue, he had been like this all his life A daughter, how can her daughter become like this without making him sad as a father? Especially, his grandson...

"Master, Miss is really suffering..."

Xiaolu sobbed, and immediately told what happened in the past two years, and in the end, she was sobbing.

With a "boom", General Zhao angrily threw all the things on the table to the ground, still not relieved.

"Okay, okay you Sun family, can you bully my daughter like this!! It would be better if Qihua divorced that man, otherwise this general doesn't mind being a bad guy, so I will kill them directly!"

Zhao Geng was so angry that his face was red and his chest was bulging. At the end, he couldn't help coughing. Lin Cong hurried forward to pat his chest, fearing that his condition would recur again.

"General, don't be angry. The Sun family dared to bully Miss like this. Didn't it mean that Miss was unaccompanied in her hometown and thought she was easy to bully? Now that Miss is back, you also know their evil deeds, so you can vent your anger on Miss. "

After hearing this, General Zhao calmed down a bit, and when his eyes shifted to his daughter who was so thin and out of shape on the bed, his heart ached so much that he could only sigh faintly.

After a long time, General Zhao said quietly: "A Cong, I am not a qualified general, let alone a qualified father."

Lin Cong glanced at him in surprise, and asked in a low voice, "Why did the general say that?"

"You see, because of my selfishness, I have been procrastinating not to find a marriage for Qihua, which made her grow up into an old girl in a daze. King Su couldn't see it, so he gave the order forcefully, so I had to Seriously consider Qihua's life. But... look at what husband I found for her? If I hadn't nodded and agreed, Qihua wouldn't have married and was missed by the Sun family all her life... "

"General, you were also doing it for the sake of Miss..."

"What's so good? At the beginning, I complained that King Su didn't miss the old love, so he didn't consider Qihua. But I also knew in my heart that Qihua's marriage should not be delayed any longer. King Su made this decision just to make me make up my mind. An order that is close to humanity. No matter how much he is a big man, he will never want to miss a woman's life, and he also treats Qihua like a younger sister in his heart... It's just because my father didn't fulfill his responsibilities, and instead wanted to make it ridiculous. The responsibility is shifted to others. And you, A Cong, you have been with me for more than ten years, and I treat you like my own son, but you are now twenty-five years old, and you have not married a wife... "

Lin Cong smiled and said, "General, why did you start a family while the North Vietnam was still alive? I don't know when this life will be lost on the battlefield. Marrying a wife will only drag down my wife and children..."

"A Cong, don't lie to me. If Lao Wei hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that your heart... If I had known this, I might as well marry Qihua to you, at least you wouldn't do that to a woman." Things that are not as good as animals."

"General!" Lin Cong turned pale with shock.

General Zhao waved his hand and said, "I'm tired, you should go out first."

Lin Cong glanced at the thin woman in the bed, and General Zhao, who seemed to be a few years older, sighed softly, and went out.

***********

Chu Baning returned to the mansion with his brother-in-law from Beijing and a military adviser who came uninvited.

On the way, Lu Shaohua ignored Chu Baning's cold eyes, walked beside Ananda, and asked Ananda gently about his life in Tongcheng for the past three years, occasionally touching his sister's head affectionately, and sincerely said something considerate. If you are concerned, that good brother's appearance has successfully made a certain man's eyes darken, and the late spring has also turned into a cold winter's moon.

Wen Liang shook his body, and carefully stepped back a few steps away from the prince who created the cold air. In his heart, he admired this young man of the Lu family. Facing the attack of the prince's cold air, he could still talk and laugh calmly, without any disobedience. People are so admirable.

When they returned to the mansion, before the few people reached the hall, they saw a few maids and nuns moving slowly like snails in the corridor leading to the hall, and all of them looked nervous. Taking a closer look, I found that there was a small figure in front of the maids and nuns. The little man is a small ball, walking unsteadily, looks like a tumbler, a fat baby from a distance, very funny, obviously the road is not stable, the little man still stubbornly refuses to be helped by others, If she had to insist on walking by herself, the maids and nuns behind her all felt like they were on the verge of a formidable enemy.

Seeing the people coming, the little tuanzi took a few steps on trembling legs, almost unable to hold on anymore, and finally stretched out a pair of chubby hands to hug the pillar beside him, with big black eyes He looked at a few people cutely.

The picture of the chubby bun hugging the pillar finally amused the people present, and everyone burst into laughter.

"Father, Mother, Wen, Uncle." The little bun looked at the people cutely, then looked at a stranger who appeared between them in doubt, tilted his head, and jumped out word by word in a soft voice: " No, I know, yes, uncle."

Ananda came over, took her chubby hand, and said with a smile, "Chuchu, he is an uncle, not an unknown uncle."

The little bun looked at the smile on his mother's face, then turned his head to show a shallow smile to Lu Shaohua, with someone supporting him, with a small hand behind his back, he called softly: "Uncle."

Lu Shaohua glanced at Chu Baning who was standing with his hands behind his back, and then at a small hand held by Ananda, who was holding a serious bun behind his back, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. Obviously that little chubby tuan'er is only over a year old, but that stern and pain-inducing look is amazing? I was completely blinded by that cute look.

Ananda said with some embarrassment: "Second brother, this is my daughter, her nickname is Chu Chu, and her maiden name is Chu Yun." Thinking about it, Ananda also knew very well the virtues of his little bun. Excuse me.

"Chuchu, long time no see." Wen Liang held back a smile and stepped forward, touching the little guy's white and tender face to say hello, just like a wretched uncle.

The little bun tilted his face slightly, obviously he didn't like being touched by someone like this, so he said with a sullen face, "Wen, uncle, itchy." Then he tilted his head and said, "See you."

Ananda couldn't help being happy, and Chu Baning also had a faint smile on his lips.

Only those who often get along with Xiao Baozi understand that what Xiao Chuchu means is that they just met this morning. However, her expressive ability is not strong yet, so she simply skipped out word by word.

Wen Liang pinched it a few more times before withdrawing his hand, which naturally got Xiao Baozi's father's stare.

Lu Shaohua hurriedly handed the prepared gift to Xiao Baozi, which was a jade pendant. Ananda took it and tied it to the little bun's belt.

"Thank you." Xiao Baozi said politely.

Lu Shaohua couldn't help but glanced at Chu Baning with a serious face again, and thought to himself that his father would definitely cry when he saw this little bun.

All the sons and daughters of the Lu family knew about Lu Cheng's love for Ananda. He looked forward to and cared about Ananda's daughter, and always wanted to see his granddaughter, but it was a pity that his daughter would not return to Beijing, so naturally he would not be able to see his granddaughter either. That's why Lu Shaohua was asked to turn around to see his granddaughter, so that he could go back and talk to him about her granddaughter. However, Prime Minister Lu would be very sad if he knew that his granddaughter not only did not look like a daughter, but looked like a son-in-law, looking like a little old man.

"Okay, let's all go and sit in the house." Chu Baning said.

Ananda also nodded, "Second brother is tired from riding all the way here, let's go inside and have a rest." As he spoke, he was about to lead Xiao Baozi back, but who knew that Xiao Baozi didn't move.

"Mother, I'm tired." Xiao Baozi pointed to his two fat radish legs with his chubby white fingers.

Ananda smiled, and when he was about to pick her up, Chu Baning stepped forward and hugged the little fat dumpling.

Little Fatty Tuanzi glanced at her mother, then put his head on her father's shoulder, and said softly: "Father, you are so tired!"

Chu Baning's big hand patted the little guy's head, and soon, the little bun showed a quiet smile, and sat in his arms contentedly and stopped moving.

Entering the room, some maids have already prepared refreshments.

Chu Baning put the daughter in his arms on the pit, and sat in the pit with Ananda.

Xiao Baozi was playing with a small hydrangea ball in his hand, and the adults began to greet each other.

"Second brother, how long can you stay this time?" Ananda asked happily, knowing that her second brother came to see her at the request of the prime minister's father, which moved her even more. I suddenly felt that I missed the prime minister's father very much.

"Hehe, there are two days. In order to see you and Chuchu, I rushed to see you and Chuchu. I tried to compress the journey as much as possible, just to be here with you for a few days." Lu Shaohua said softly, at the end, he glanced at a certain As expected, the prince could not help but secretly smile when he saw a strange glint in his eyes.

"That's right, second brother, you can rest for two days, and my sister will treat you well." Ananda said happily.

After talking for a while, Ananda thought of Zhao Qihua, and couldn't help asking: "Second Brother, there are many bandits on the road? Are you and Ms. Zhao not injured?"

"Of course not." Lu Shaohua said easily: "When I met Miss Zhao's family, she only brought a maidservant and a coachman with her, and she was in a hurry, and there were a few people dressed as bandits chasing her. I was rescued without any hassle. However, I overheard the maid named Xiaolu next to Ms. Zhao's family say that because of her miscarriage not long ago, she was on the road without taking proper care of her body, making her very weak. That's why those gangsters became malicious and chased after them."

Hearing Lu Shaohua's explanation, Chu Baning frowned slightly, Wen Liang stroked his chin in thought, Ananda was shocked and frowned tightly.

Although Lu Shaohua didn't know what kind of friendship the Zhao family lady had with these people, but judging from their expressions, he seemed to be in a disturbed mood.

************

In the evening, the palace naturally entertained Lu Shaohua who came from a long way away. Wen Liang took this opportunity to drink with Lu Shaohua. After Chu Baning said a few words, he followed them. Because of his rare indulgence, Wen Liang unceremoniously dragged him to drink together. Lu Shaohua also drank his brother-in-law's wine with ill intentions, thinking of the little bun that his sister gave birth to, which looked like the prince's death, Lu Shaohua drank it even more vigorously.

After drinking and eating, Ananda naturally asked people to carry the two drunks to the guest room to rest. Although the white face of a prince with a thousand cups was a little red, he was still walking steadily, so Ananda ignored him . After she went to her daughter's room to tell stories to her daughter after bathing and coaxed her to sleep, she went back to her room.

Back to the room, but did not see Chu Baning, Ananda went to ask someone, and knew that he was in the yard at this time.

Ananda looked up at the sky, there was only a waning moon, and the moonlight was also faint. A certain man was finally drunk and went to the yard to get drunk, did he go crazy

Ananda found the courtyard, but saw no one. Just as he was about to leave, a black shadow jumped out from under the flowers.

"Princess, you are a slave."

Ananda was startled, and subconsciously wanted to kick him. Fortunately, the man reacted quickly, otherwise he would be in pain.

Mu Yuan'er wiped off his sweat. He still remembered the heroic appearance of his own princess kicking people in the White Horse Temple more than two years ago. The man was kicked by her like that, and half his life was taken away if he didn't die. "Princess, the prince is there."

Ananda looked in the direction Mu Yuan'er pointed, and there was only a piece of grass there, nothing.

"Princess, the lord is lying on the grass now." Mu Yuan'er said with a bitter face, "I dare not pull him up." Then she looked at Ananda expectantly.

Mu Yuan'er also knew that other than the concubine, his prince hated being touched by others - as for the little princess? Although the lord is willing to touch her, he seldom hugs her, unless the little princess is relying on the princess to hold her. The prince is afraid that the weight of the little princess will make it difficult for the princess to hug her, so he will take the initiative to hug her.

Ananda asked the maid and Mu Yuan'er to stand by the corridor, and then walked over under the moonlight, and sure enough, he saw a man lying on the grass, with his hands behind his head, quietly watching the waning moon in the sky.

Ananda puffed his face, he was in a good mood today.

"My lord, do you want to enjoy the moon?" Ananda knelt down and asked.

In the dim light, those quiet black eyes moved to her face.

He looked at her without speaking. In the darkness, his eyes were fixed on her face with strange emotions.

Ananda smiled, regardless of whether the grass beneath him was dirty or not, he sat directly beside him, laying his head on his chest.

"My lord, tell me if you are unhappy, I will be a good listener~~" Ananda said softly.

Chu Baning touched her head with one hand, and said after a long time, "Qihua, she has always been a younger sister. Zijing loves her very much, but she doesn't remember Zijing anymore." Although the voice was calm, there was some resentment "At that time, my father put Wen Zijing, the second son of Lord Zhen Guogong, by my side and became my bodyguard to protect me. Because of Zijing, Zixiu also often entered the palace. The emperor also often brought the queen Zhao into the palace. Look at me, Mrs. Zhao will sometimes bring Qihua into the palace. Zixiu, Qihua and I often study and practice calligraphy together, and Zijing is like a generous and gentle brother who guards our safety. Later, because of Concubine Li’s Things happened, Zijing died protecting me, Zixiu broke with Lao Zhen Guogong and left the capital, Qihua was also taken to Tongcheng by General Zhao..."

Ananda lay on his chest, listening to his deep baritone voice, his heart gradually calmed down.

During that period of childhood, every place was interspersed with a character—Concubine Li, he must have had a hard time. But his voice was so flat and quiet, neither happy nor sad.

Ananda put his arms around his waist, and understood that he was explaining something to her through drunkenness, something he wouldn't do when he was sober.

"When I saw Qihua like that, I thought of Zijing. Before Zijing died, he was also pale and thin, and he cried very sadly, because he knew that if he died, Zixiu would..."

That's why he didn't push Zhao Qihua away for a while

Ananda sighed softly in his heart, tightened his hands, and pressed himself tightly against his chest.
