Early in the morning of the second day, when Qin Wan opened his eyes, it was already light outside. When he regained his composure, Qin Wan saw Yan Chi beside him as soon as he turned his eyes.
Yan Chi was still asleep, and his sleeping face was not as usual, so unfriendly to strangers, Qin Wan raised the corners of his lips, and couldn't help shrinking into Yan Chi's arms. With this movement, Yan Chi woke up, and he He turned around and hugged Qin Wan, and kissed her hair twice, "Why did you wake up?"
Qin Wan smiled and said, "Today is the first day of junior high school, and I have to visit my aunt."
Although it is in Bailuzhou, Qin Wan still wants to behave, Yan Chi smiled and said, "Auntie doesn't think about it, let's sleep more."
Even though he said that, Qin Wan still struggled to get up. During the two days when Yan Chi came back, she was tortured a lot. When the brocade quilt fell down, she could see traces all over her body. Wan Lao returned to his arms, "Really don't worry, my aunt was drunk last night, I'm afraid she hasn't got up yet."
Qin Wan blinked, "What? Auntie is drunk?"
Qin Wan was very surprised, obviously couldn't remember what happened last night, Yan Chi looked at her like this and thought of Qin Wan's drunken state last night, so he couldn't help but kissed her on the tip of the nose, "Last night, but It's not just my aunt who is drunk."
Qin Wan thought about it for a moment, "I... why can't I remember clearly, am I drunk too?"
Yan Chi smiled and went to kiss Qin Wan, Qin Wan pushed him away after recovering, "I'm really drunk? What did I do? I can't remember anything about last night, I did What shame? I thought I would never drink plum wine again!"
The more nervous Qin Guan was, the more Yan Chi laughed, and shook his head after a long while, "No, you were just a little drunk, and I brought you to rest later, there is nothing else besides you, just you..." Yan Chi paused , "It's just that you are in a daze, always sleepy."
Qin Wan blinked, "That's it?"
Yan Chi nodded, "Yes, that's it, you will be in a daze outside."
Qin Wan was relieved after hearing this, "That's good..."
Yan Chi said "Mmm", and a sly gleam flashed in his eyes, "So it's not that you can't drink in the future, but I will watch you when I'm with you. If I'm not here, you are Not even a drop of alcohol."
Qin Wan responded, "Naturally, I'm not strong enough to drink."
The smile on the corners of Yan Chi's lips was always big. Now that Qin Wan has come to his senses, he can't tell her how tightly she shivered him last night. Although drinking is not a good thing, if you see Qin Wan occasionally in the future, it will be like that. Drunk state, as far as he is eating honey.
Yan Chi hugged Qin Wan, and rubbed against each other on the bed for a while before getting up. Qin Wan was so dizzy from drinking last night, and when he got up in the morning, he also made up the rewards for Fu Ling and the others. Not long after, Wutong Garden came People invited the two of them to go over.
Yan Chi and Qin Wan left the Hanyu Hall together, and when they arrived at Wutong Garden, the table in front of Lu Youxin was already full of breakfast.
"Knowing that Guan'er drank a lot last night, I didn't call you early in the morning. Today's breakfast is very light and delicious. Come and taste it."
The two of Yan Chi were seated, and Lu Youxin joked about what happened last night. Qin Wan couldn't remember many details. This was so rare for her that she silently made up her mind that she must drink less in the future. , After finishing their breakfast, the three of them moved to the main hall to talk.
Yan Chi said, "I wanted to stay here for a few more days, but the military situation in Shuoxi is urgent, and I can't wait anymore, so I plan to enter Jianzhou City this afternoon."
Lu You was stunned, "Are you going to leave later?"
Yan Chi nodded, "We still have something to do in Jianzhou, I'm afraid we will stay for a day or two."
Lu You wanted to say something but didn't say anything, he just sighed, "Forget it, your business is a big one, so Auntie won't keep you anymore, but we don't know when we will see you again after this farewell, you and Guan'er, but Just be careful."
Yan Chi and Qin Wan responded in unison, Lu You thought for a while and then turned and went into the inner room. Not long after, he took out a brocade box from inside.
"Here, it's Lu's property in Qianzhou, Jianzhou, and Dingzhou. I don't know how to help you right now, but wars always need money and food, and the people below will also need money. Lu For so many years, the others are gone, only these yellow and white things can be taken out, I will give you all these things, how to use them, you can arrange it yourself at that time, if it is not enough, write to me early, Lanzhou Jinzhou also has many industries.”
Yan Chi frowned when he heard this, "Auntie, there's no need...it's not this far yet."
Lu Youxin smiled, "Silly boy, if I have reached this point, how can I still have time to give you money? You are a person who is going to do big things, you take these things first, and if everything goes well, you don't need them anymore, but Once you encounter something, it is better for your aunt to help you than you and others to mediate."
Yan Chi's brows were still frowned, and Lu Youxin sighed when he saw this, "Let's put it this way, I've thought about what you said that day, and I think it's very reasonable, it's impossible for Lu's children to stick to those words In the future, the Lu family has gone downhill, and the children of the Lu family may depend on you to take care of them in the future. My aunt now, out of emotion and reason, hopes that you will be safe and healthy, and make contributions. So, my aunt is not all out of selfishness. These things are handed over to you."
Most of the Lu family's property is in the south, and the few places Lu Youxin mentioned can be said to have taken up Lu's general property. Once Yan Chi really uses up everything, one can imagine how much turmoil the Lu family will have. After pondering for a while, he finally took the brocade box, "In this case, I will accept the things first, and I won't use them unless it is absolutely necessary."
Only then did Lu Youxin smile happily, "Of course I hope you will never reach this point. It is never easy to use soldiers to fight wars. My aunt always wants to help you a little bit more."
As he said that, Lu Youxin looked at Qin Wan again, "Actually, it might be best for Guan'er to stay in Bailuzhou, but you two have a deep love, and Guan'er can endure hardships, so I won't say anything, Guan'er, you Follow him all the way, and you must take care of your body, you are not as strong as her."
Qin Wan responded again and again, and took out two prescriptions from his sleeve pocket, "These two prescriptions are for my fifth cousin. His illness needs to be taken care of. These two prescriptions are suitable for long-term care. I can't see a doctor for him after I leave today, but I can take this prescription first and then find a famous doctor."
Seeing this, Lu Youxin was very grateful, and sighed, "In fact, I have decided on the matter of the fifth room. I didn't say anything when I saw you didn't ask. This matter... I... don't plan to tell the government the truth. Jing Cheng made a mistake first, and finally It was a big mistake for him to make such a situation, but Jinghe has harmed someone in the end. I plan to let him take the fifth brother and his wife to leave the Lu family in Lanzhou, and find a place to live in Huzhou or Jinzhou, so that they can recuperate well in the future. "
After leaving Lu's ancestral house, Wufang will fade out of Lu's direct line, which also means that Lu's family business has nothing to do with Wufang.
Qin Wan sighed, "Auntie can tell right from wrong, so it's great."
The three of them talked for a while, and it seemed that it was almost noon before Qin Wan and Qin Wan returned to the Han Ou House. Once back in the Han Ou House, Qin Wan ordered to pack up. Although Fu Ling and the others were surprised, it was not unexpected Fortunately, they didn't salute much, so they packed up in a short time. The chariots and horses were the ones they had gone south before, but now there are many more guards, and the team is even bigger.
Not long after, Qin Wan and Yan Chi ordered someone to load up the salute carriage, and went to Wutong Garden to bid farewell to Lu Youxin.
After this farewell, they will leave Bailuzhou.
Qin Wan wanted to go to see the White Deer, but it got dark early in winter, so they had to enter Jianzhou City early, so he had to feel a little regretful in his heart, thinking that he could come again next time, but when they arrived at Wutong Garden, Lu Jingxiu and Lu Jingyun Talking in front of Lu Youxin, suddenly seeing Yan Chi and Qin Wan coming, they were quite nervous.
Lu Youxin greeted her, "It's been cleaned up so soon?"
Qin Wan smiled and said, "The sun is setting to the west. If we don't leave, we won't be able to enter the city before dark. Let's say goodbye to my aunt."
Lu Jingyun's mouth widened, and she probably didn't expect Qin Wan to leave today.
Lu Youxin sighed, "Okay, then I'll take you there!"
In this way, the group of people was about to head towards the east gate again. Lu Jingxiu and Lu Jingyun stood in place. Lu Youxin looked at the two of them and said, "You don't need to talk about it. I'll discuss this matter when I come back later..."
Lu Jingxiu stood with lowered eyes, no longer the spirit of the past, only Lu Jingyun said softly, "Then we have to leave today."
Lu Youxin frowned when he heard that, Qin Wan looked at Lu Youxin suspiciously, and Lu Youxin said, "These two children suddenly said they want to join the army, but I haven't made up my mind yet."
Qin Wan was slightly surprised, Lu Jingxiu was just fine, why was Lu Jingyun... Thinking about it this way, it suddenly dawned on her that it must be Lu Jingxiu who had this idea, and then Lu Jingyun wanted to follow, but it's just good, how could they think of joining the army
Yan Chi was also a little surprised when he heard the words, he turned his eyes to look at Lu Jingxiu, his unfathomable eyes were a bit cold.
"Join the army? Where are you going to join the army?"
Lu Youxin smiled wryly, "They're going to Jinzhou..."
This is where Lu Youxin hesitated. After listening to Yan Chi's words, she no longer thought that the children of the Lu family could not become officials, but if they were to join the army, they should also go to the west. But for some reason, Lu Jingxiu and the two actually went Jinzhou.
Yan Chi heard the words and said calmly, "Jinzhou is stationed in the north, and now the imperial court is going to rear its troops again. It is indeed a good place to go."
Lu Youxin was even more helpless when he heard this, "They are children, and they are not going to Jinzhou."
The meaning of these words is clear, but Yan Chi smiled, "Auntie doesn't need to force it. A good man has his ambitions everywhere. No matter where he goes to join the army, he has made a choice and can bear the result. Today's Great Zhou is about to be chaotic, maybe heroes will emerge in troubled times maybe."
Lu Youxin didn't think that Lu Jingxiu could become a hero. In her opinion, it was better to let Lu Jingxiu go to Shuoxi to help Yanchi.
But Lu Jingxiu didn't think so, and Yan Chi didn't seem to have any intention of soliciting.
As soon as Yan Chi finished speaking, Lu Jingxiu raised his eyes, and he looked at Yan Chi, trying not to be afraid.
The four eyes met, Yan Chi's eyes were calm, Lu Jingxiu's fists clenched in his sleeves were still clenched unconsciously, and he quickly lowered his eyes, "Borrow His Royal Highness Prince Rui's good words."
Yan Chi withdrew his gaze noncommittally, "Since you are young, you should practice more. After you have experienced a lot, you will know the right way."
Yan Chi's words sounded like an elder's, and Lu Youxin couldn't stop nodding when he heard the words, "Yes, yes, that's exactly the reason."
Yan Chi stopped talking, and walked out holding Qin Wan's hand. Lu Youxin sent the two of them out while talking, and soon walked out of Wutong Garden. Still stayed in the distance.
Lu Jingyun looked at Lu Jingxiu, "Fifth brother, are we really going to Jinzhou? To go to Jinzhou is to join the court, but now, my aunt obviously wants to help Prince Rui, and Prince Rui is a rebel who the court has announced to the world. We Otherwise, why not go to Shuoxi?"
The more Lu Jingyun spoke, the lower her voice became, but Lu Jingxiu stood there quietly and did not answer any more.
…
…
After seeing off outside the east gate of Bailuzhou, Yan Chi and Qin Wan got into the carriage and headed straight for Jianzhou City.
The sun was slanting westward, and the first day of the new year was a sunny day, but even so, the weather was still cold. The snow on the road to Jianzhou City had not yet melted, and the wind was extremely cold.
In the carriage, Yan Chi was hugging Qin Wan, and Qin Wan was hugging Mrs. Tang, Qin Wan said, "If the children of the Lu family really join the army and join the imperial court, one day it will be difficult for you..."
Yan Chi touched Qin Wan's cheek and said with a smile, "Don't say that day hasn't arrived yet, even if it does, it's fine, don't worry."
Qin Wan responded, then lazily leaned on Yan Chi and closed her eyes to fall asleep.
The carriage drove slowly all the way, and it was still bright outside the gate of Jianzhou City. Yan sooner or later made an arrangement, and the carriage entered Jianzhou City and went straight to a private house in the south of the city.
This house has two entrances, occupies a large area, and is also very elegant. It is very suitable for them to live in Jianzhou City for a while.
The two of them entered the main courtyard together, and Fu Ling and the others removed the salute from the carriage, tidied up a bit, and then the two sat down to talk.
"When do you plan to meet Yao Zhifu?" Qin Wan asked.
Yan Chi said, "I'll deliver the letter tonight, and it's best to meet up tomorrow."
Qin Wan nodded, "I sent a letter to Xinlan, but I still don't know what she thinks, otherwise..."
Yan Chi held her hand and said, "My people have already arrived at Jianzhou Camp, so there's no need to contact Yao Xinlan right now. I'll meet her father first, and if you want to catch up with her later, it's not too late to see her again."
Qin Wan was worried that Yan Chi would not come back for the new year, so he contacted Yao Xinlan. Now that Yan Chi is back, it is not easy for their daughter's family to intervene in these matters. Qin Wan nodded, "Okay, then I don't care about it." gone."
Yan Chi hugged Qin Wan in his arms and said, "You've been tired for the past two days, just take a good rest."
Qin Wan knew what Yan Chi was talking about, and immediately blushed, the two embraced and talked for a while, Yan Chi read the letter sent by Shuoxi for a while, and the two rested.
Early the next morning, the two got up, had breakfast, and Yan Chi left the house. Qin Wan didn't ask Yan Chi what he was going to do, but just rested in the house with peace of mind. Fu Ling waited on him. "Princess, can we really see the young lady again?"
Yao Xinlan was originally Qin Chen's wife, and Fu Ling used to call her Young Madam, but she hasn't changed it yet.
Qin Wan sighed, thinking of Yao Xinlan and the Jinzhou Qin family, she felt as if they were far away in her previous life.
"I don't know. My letter has been delivered. It depends on whether she wants to see her. She is doing well in Jianzhou now. When she sees me, she just remembers the past. She used to be a crazy person." , even if I don’t see you this time, I can understand.”
Fu Ling tilted her head and thought for a while, "Miss is over a year old, right?"
Qin Wan smiled and nodded, "One and a half years old."
Thinking of Yao Xinlan's poor fate, Fu Ling sighed and didn't say any more.
So Yan Chi didn't come back until noon, after lunch, a visitor suddenly came outside the house.
When Bai Feng came to report, Qin Wan was slightly surprised, but Yan Chi smiled knowingly, "It should be that Yao Zhifu has come, you wait here, I will go to the study to meet him."
Qin Wan was naturally very happy with Yan Chi's success in mind, and immediately agreed.
Yan Chi went out to leave, while Qin Wan heaved a sigh of relief, at least he didn't run into a wall with Yao Zhifu.
Sitting in Nuan Pavilion, footsteps suddenly sounded outside again, and Bai Feng's voice sounded outside, "Please wait a moment, the villain will report right away."
The voice settled down, and then another soft female voice sounded. Qin Wan didn't hear it clearly from inside, but felt a little familiar. Just as he was wondering, Fuling suddenly let out a soft cry from outside, and then hurried footsteps towards Nuan Pavilion came, the door curtain was lifted, and Fu Ling poked her head in, "Princess! Quickly see who is coming!"
Qin Wan stood up with a jump in her heart, and hurriedly walked out. When she got out, she saw Yao Xinlan standing in the outer courtyard at a glance.
Qin Wan was startled, a warm current flowed through his heart, and he hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law—"
I haven't seen her for more than a year, and Yao Xinlan is no longer what she remembered. In the past, she loved Qin Chen wholeheartedly. Later, her suspicions became more and more serious, and she was sickly and delicate. But now Yao Xinlan is different. She is quite gorgeous. The dress is still a woman's bun, but the hairpins are exquisite, and the face is also thinly covered with powder. It is clearly the middle of winter, and she is standing beside the snow in the courtyard with a smile, but she is as delicate and beautiful as a spring crabapple Exquisite, and beside her, a middle-aged woman was holding a little girl carved in pink and jade in her arms. Qin Wan looked at Yao Xinlan, then at the little girl, and felt that his eyes were getting hot.
"Ninth Sister—"
Seeing Qin Wan coming up, Yao Xinlan also came up to meet him. She grabbed Qin Wan's hand and looked at Qin Wan. Compared with her gloomy and dejected past, now her eyes are shining, looking up and down Qin Wan for a while, and said with a smile, "No, I should be called Wangfei...Meet Wangfei..."
Yao Xinlan went down to greet her, and Qin Wan hurriedly supported her, "What is sister-in-law doing? It's driving me crazy. I didn't even know that sister-in-law was coming. If I knew, I would go out to greet her. It's cold outside, so let's go in and talk... Is it Qiqi?"
The middle-aged woman should be Qiqi's foster mother. At this moment, she hugged her and bowed to Qin Wan. Qin Wan quickly supported her and looked at Xiaoqiqi again.
Qiqi is the name Yao Xinlan gave to her daughter. Now more than one year old, Qiqi and Yao Xinlan seem to be carved out of the same mold, and because they are well-raised, they are like snowballs, and they are not afraid of seeing Qin Wan. Qin Wan tries Sexually wanted to reach out to hug her, but unexpectedly she threw herself into Qin Wan's arms.
"Gu... Gu Gu..."
The one-year-old Qiqi was not yet able to speak smoothly, and could not tell the difference between "cuckoo" and "aunt". Qin Wan hugged a small soft ball in his arms and was already happy. He was even more happy when he heard this. Qiqi went into the house, "Quick, let's go in and talk!"
Qin Wan brought Yao Xinlan and her daughter into the Nuan Pavilion, and put Qiqi on the couch to play, and the two of them sat on the couch and talked.
Fu Ling and the others all retreated after serving tea, and there was no one else in the room for a while.
Yao Xinlan took Qin Wan's hand and said, "I was very excited when I got your letter. My father was going to be promoted to Beijing Central earlier, but because of the Jinzhou incident, I still got involved. When I came back from Jinzhou, my father thought, Jianzhou is my home after all, so I might as well just stay here and not get promoted. For more than a year, my father has treated me very well, and my family has taken good care of me. I have a good life. When I came here today, my father wanted to come alone, because I knew that His Highness wanted to talk about business, so I insisted on pestering my father to come together. Over the past year, the world has changed a lot, and we haven't changed much... "
Yao Xinlan naturally also knew the current situation of Yan Chi and Qin Wan. Qin Wan smiled and said, "I told him that I didn't know if I could see you. He said that he met your father first, and then he saw you to catch up with you. We entered the city last night, and I thought about writing to you tonight."
The two were talking, and Qiqi was crawling around on the couch to play, but she seemed to like Qin Wan very much, and would always grab Qin Wan's sleeves, Yao Xinlan said, "I will teach her on the way. Calling your aunt, but she is so stupid, she doesn't learn well... "
Qin Wan took off the jade bracelet on her wrist for Qiqi to play with, and said with a smile, "It's already very good, I'm very happy to see her."
Yao Xinlan said casually, "I brought her here because I wanted her to meet my savior. After this meeting, I don't know when I will see you next time. I know you are going to Shuoxi. Hey, I really don't know. Thinking of it, you ended up walking with His Highness Prince Rui together."
Speaking of Yan Chi, Qin Wan naturally had a smile on his face, "It was nothing in Jinzhou at the beginning, and then I met him again on the way to the capital, and he escorted us all the way, and then she helped me in the capital. many."
Yao Xinlan smiled, "I know you are very good just by looking at your appearance, so I feel relieved. At that time, I felt that you were unusual. When I stayed in the mansion for many days, they didn't realize it. I just met Prince Rui. Your Highness, I really match you."
The two are old friends, but Jinzhou's memory is not pleasant, so no one mentions it. After talking for a while, Qin Wan asked Yao Xinlan about her future plans, and Yao Xinlan said, "I'm a widow with a child. I don’t want to, my father wanted to help me, but I refused. Qiqi is still so young, she will be wronged even if I marry anyone, I don’t want to, not to mention that I live a very good life alone now , I don’t need to think about that, maybe one day I meet someone I like again, and it’s not certain that I’ll be moved.” After a pause, Yao Xinlan said again, “I understand what you said in your letter that day, don’t worry Well, when it comes to winter, I’ve been setting up a porridge shed outside the city to serve porridge, and I’ll tell my father later that I try not to stop the people from entering the city.”
Naturally, Qin Wan would not persuade Yao Xinlan to remarry. The current Yao Xinlan is much happier than in the Jinzhou Qin Mansion.
The two talked for a while, and Qin Wan began to tease Qiqi. She had never seen such a small doll before, but now she found it very interesting when she saw it. All the bracelets and hairpins on her body were given, and a big gift was prepared, except that the pendant that Yanchi gave her was not given to Qiqi. The two stayed in the Nuan Pavilion for half an hour, but someone from the Yao residence came to invite Yao Xinlan outside. Qin Wan wanted to stay with Yao Xinlan for dinner but failed.
Yao Xinlan said with a smile, "Now that you have special identities, my father is still a little uneasy. Before coming here, he said that he can't stay longer. It seems that they have agreed. I will leave now. We will always see each other again."
Qin Wan personally sent Yao Xinlan out of the inner courtyard, and when he left the inner courtyard, he saw Yan Chi standing side by side with a middle-aged man, who was naturally Yao Xinlan's father. Send them out of the house.
"How? It's all said and done?"
On the way to the inner courtyard, Qin Wan couldn't help asking.
Yan Chi smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's all said and done. I don't have the confidence to refuse me for the position of Jianzhou, but if the prefect Yao insists, I will have to work hard. Now he is a person who knows the current affairs. We will take the position tomorrow. Let's go to Shuoxi now!"
Things went smoothly beyond Qin Wan's expectations, thinking that he could finally go to Shuoxi, Qin Wan was relieved again.
Seeing Qin Wan relax, Yan Chi said again, "Wanwan, Shuoxi has a different look, are you ready?"
Qin Wan knew what Yan Chi was talking about, so she couldn't help laughing, "Of course I understand, but if you've been there for more than ten years, I won't be able to go anymore, don't worry."
Yan Chi felt pity and guilt at the same time, and the night before he left, he ordered Bai Feng to buy a lot of things to take with him. Although he didn't understand women's preferences, he wanted to buy something that Qin Wan didn't have right now. Wan didn't have many clothes to wear, so he had to buy some more. Those who knew it was Prince Rui's doting on the concubine, but those who didn't know thought it was some rich man who had never seen the world before buying things...
Because they were leaving for Shuoxi the next day, Yan Chi did not make Qin Wan tired that night, the two of them had a good night's rest, and everyone got up early in the morning of the second day, because Yan Chi did some shopping for Qin Wan, the team was busy. There were three more large carriages, and when the sun rose, a group of people left Jianzhou City and headed west.
Although the new year has passed, it is still mid-winter in the first month of the lunar year, and Yan Chi had to walk for half a month to ride a horse and a car for Qin Wan, and as he went west, Qin Wan gradually realized that Yan Chi's words were not true. Just kidding.
Although Jianzhou is snowing heavily, it is still the scenery of the southern country. But once you leave Jianzhou and enter the north of Qianzhou, the scenery is very different. There are few green trees on the roadside, and the thick snow on the roadside is even more so. It's appalling, and they will enter Liangzhou from the north of Qianzhou, and then enter Shuoxi from the south of Yanxing Mountain. Along the way, the snow is getting heavier, the wind is getting stronger, and the mountain road is getting steeper and more difficult. , After walking like this for seven or eight days, when we entered Liangzhou, the road conditions got better.
As the saying goes, auspicious snow heralds a good year, but there is not much snow in Liangzhou this year. Because of this, it is easier for them to travel in carriages. When they arrived in Liangzhou, Yu Qi, who had been left in Jianzhou by Yan Chi before, and Yu Qi in Guizhou Zhang Dongxuan and others from Liangzhou had already been waiting here. On this day, Qin Guan and his party arrived in Yu County, north of Liangzhou. and others.
Since Jianzhou is safe, Yu Qi will naturally go back to Shuoxi to be by Yan Chi's side. Zhang Dongxuan is valued by Yan Chi, so naturally he will not stay in Qianzhou. When everyone met, Zhang Dongxuan and others gave a big gift first, and then sat down in the main hall speak among them.
Yu Qi was the first to say, "Your Highness, my subordinate arrived yesterday afternoon, and just last night, my subordinate received good news!"
Yan Chi raised his eyebrows, "What good news?"
Yu Qi took out a letter from his sleeve, stepped forward and handed it to Yan Chi respectfully, Yan Chi opened it, his eyes suddenly became sharp!
Qin Wan looked at Yan Chi suspiciously, while Yu Qi said aside, "Princess, that thief Jiang Heying has already been executed!"
Qin Wan's heart was shocked, and only then did he understand where Yan Chi's gaze came from.
Yu Qi continued, "Our people still chased him. We had blocked him in the mountain for more than ten days before. In this weather, there is no food in the mountain. It is very easy to freeze to death. When we find him, everyone will die." He was about to freeze, and he and his subordinates' mounts were killed to eat them, so they were short of eating people."
Yan Chi frowned and glanced at Yu Qi, Yu Qifei quickly understood, and quickly touched his nose, "Princess, the villain is a rough person, and he speaks vulgarly, please forgive me."
Qin Wan smiled and said, "You can do as usual, these words won't scare me."
Even so, Yu Qi still didn't dare to be too presumptuous, scratched his head and sat back with a smile.
Zhang Dongxuan said, "Xiaodao also arrived yesterday afternoon. Xiaodao has been watching the stars for the past few days and nights, and found that the northern star palace is in turmoil, which is a sign of a great war. On the contrary, our west is very peaceful. Your Highness can find out more news about the north."
Yan Chi nodded, "Lin Xugui is already at the end of his battle. As for the north, the Beifu army has already begun to move south. Naturally, there will be several battles."
Having said that, Yu Qi's eyes lit up again, "Mr. Qi and General Chu have been waiting for His Highness for a long time, and now most of the generals in the battalion have been rescued, and some people can stay as internal responders, just waiting for you to arrive Shuoxi, we can take Lin Xugui with him!"
Yan Chi tapped the back of the chair lightly with his fingertips, "Although Lin Xugui has relaxed his vigilance for the time being, the Shuoxi camp is the effort of his father, and I don't want to ruin the camp just because of one Lin Xugui, so that Chu Feicheng can set up a safe one." Plans, it’s best to get things done quietly.”
Yu Qi nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, Shuoxi Daying is our family."
Yan Chi shook his head, "This time, we may not take Shuoxi Camp as our family."
Yu Qi raised his brows when he heard this, Yan Chi narrowed his eyes and said, "This time is different than usual, although the Shuoxi Camp has become the most solid fortress in Shuoxi for years, but if we want to fight against the imperial court, one fortress is not enough , if you want to become king with soldiers, you need to occupy the city."
Yu Qi and Zhang Dongxuan looked at each other, their eyes lit up, and Yu Qi hurriedly said, "What is Your Highness looking for?"
Zhang Dongxuan also said, "Liangzhou? Or Dingzhou?"
Yan Chi shook his head, "Liangzhou is in the south of Yanxing Mountain, and Shuoxi is connected to the northwest, and Dingzhou is in the north of Yanxing Mountain. It doesn't matter which one you choose at present, I want to choose Xilincheng .”
Qin Wan could not help but raise his eyebrows slightly as he listened. Xilincheng, a name rarely seen elsewhere, is not an ordinary prefecture or county in Dazhou, but a city in the east of the Shuoxi Plateau. It has been under the jurisdiction of Mengzhou for many years, although it belongs to Mongolia The boundaries of the state, but because of the different terrain of the Shuoxi Plateau and other places, it is only controlled by Mengzhou on the surface, but in fact, Xilin City is on the Shuoxi Plateau, where the people gather most, so it is just a plateau It was a huge market town, but now it has become a city comparable to Jianzhou City, and it is also a strategic location for transportation on the plateau.
Yan Chi continued, "Our family is in Shuoxi, not Shuoxi's army camp. In Xilin City, there is father's palace in Shuoxi. It is most appropriate to set up the royal banner of Prince Rui's Mansion in Xilin City. it's—"
Yu Qi said excitedly when he heard the words, "Yes! That's exactly the reason! Although the palace here has been vacant for many years, His Highness has to be called king according to the city!"
Zhang Dongxuan also laughed and said, "Your Highness is still keen. Liangzhou was chosen too far back, and the chosen state was too far ahead. The location of the west side of the city is indeed wonderful. It is near Liangzhou to the south, can conquer Mengzhou to the north, and can also attack Dingzhou. The location is excellent, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it can indeed locate the royal city."
Yan Chi nodded, asked some more questions about Shuoxi, then sent everyone down to rest without further ado.
After waiting for a while, the main courtyard has been cleaned up, and Yan Chi took Qin Wan into the main courtyard to rest.
Although the discussion just now went very smoothly, Yan Chi's eyes were a little stern. After sitting down, he was still thinking about something and hadn't recovered.
Qin Wan poured a cup of hot tea by Yan Chi's hand, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Yan Chi came back to his senses, pulled her to sit in his arms and said, "Do you want to go to Xilin City first?"
Qin Wan frowned, "I don't want it, I want to go with you."
Yan Chi raised his eyebrows and smiled, and then said in a long voice, "Shuoxi's camp is located on the east side of Bailang Mountain. At the beginning, the camp was built there, but it was just to attack the Rong people. Later, my father guarded Shuoxi all the year round, probably Fifteen years ago, my father's handsome army defeated the Rong people. When the emperor wanted to reward his father, he found that his father was already a prince. Shuoxi rewarded his father with a palace. The other tribal cities in Shuoxi were not considered big. Only Xilin City was the most prosperous. In the end, the palace was located in Xilin City. After the palace was repaired, the father probably only visited it two or three times. Now there are only one or two servants guarding there."
Qin Wan listened quietly, and laughed when he heard this, "Then we'll be able to tidy up the palace when we go this time, so we'll have a place to stay."
Yan Chi nodded, "Yes, the palace in Xilin City is similar to the capital city, but it doesn't have so many centuries-old trees. If so, you won't be wronged."
Qin Wan turned around and looked at Yan Chi, "I'm not wronged, let alone that I don't need to go into battle to kill the enemy, even if that day comes, I won't be afraid."
Yan Chi laughed when he heard that, "If that day really comes, it will be because of my incompetence. I will never let my own woman fight the enemy with my own hands."
Qin Wan hugged Yan Chi's shoulders, "Anyway, I don't want to go to Xilin City alone, I see that you bought me a lot of clothes and jewelry for me to see, those are nothing to me, I can ride lightly with you Let’s meet General Chu and the others. Do whatever you want, just give me a shelter from the wind. If anyone gets injured, I’m still the best doctor in Dazhou. Wouldn’t it be possible for me to help at that time? busy?"
Yan Chi listened but smiled wryly, "You haven't seen it, it's different from your autopsy."
A corpse is a dead person, and usually there is only one corpse, but war is different...
You have to watch thousands of troops and horses with white knives in and red knives out, and live people with broken arms and stomachs. After all, such a scene is different from an autopsy, but Qin Wan didn't expect it. Qin Wan blinked, " I'm naturally not as bold as you guys, but I'm not weak, and I don't want to cause you trouble, but I want to know how you came over ten years ago... "
After saying this, Qin Wan said in a low voice, "If you really think I'm in the way, then I can go to Xilin City first."
Qin Wan said that she really had selfish intentions. The last time Yan Chi went to Qianzhou, she didn't go. This time she didn't want to be separated again. She wanted to see if Yan Chi's life was true, and wanted to be with Yan Chi. True, it is true that she wants to help, but if it is really inconvenient, then she has no choice but to go to Xilin City and wait for Yan Chi.
Hearing Qin Wan's low voice, Yan Chi took a deep breath and couldn't help kissing Qin Wan's lips twice, "Of course not, I just don't want you to suffer."
Qin Wan quickly raised her head, "I'm not afraid! Since I'm with you, I'd rather suffer than choose to be separated."
Yan Chi hugged Qin Wan tightly and said nothing more, "So it's really easy?"
Qin Wan nodded happily, "I'll go tell Fu Ling to go—"
As he spoke, he was about to break away from Yan Chi's embrace, Yan Chi smiled and held her down, "Don't worry, I still want to talk to you at this moment. In the past, I didn't have to think about living in the Xilin City Prince's Mansion in the future. Later, the situation changed. We went to Xilin City, Prince Rui's Mansion is not the former Prince Rui's Mansion, so I want to talk to you more..."
Qin Wan leaned against Yan Chi obediently, and Yan Chi told the story of Xilin City, "...the people in Shuoxi are the most simple, you will know when you go there, and when you see the things of Xilin City How cheap it is, I’m afraid I will say that the things I bought before have lost a lot. Over there, it’s late at night, and it’s also late at night. There is a kind of fruit there that is extremely sweet. Every summer, the local city order will give it away. Many of the people in Shuoxi who joined the army relied on the Shuoxi army to protect them. For these people, the Shuoxi army did not dare to slack off even for a day, and they never thought that leaving Shuoxi to go to the north would be more secure. place to go…”
Yan Chi's words were long and warm, Qin Wan listened quietly, and suddenly felt that even when talking about the capital, Yan Chi might not have such a gentle tone, and he had been guarding this place for more than ten years, and his father had exhausted his whole life The place where he worked hard is his second hometown, and it is also the place he will always protect. Although the situation is difficult, maybe Xilin City is really the place where she and Yan Chi will spend the rest of their lives. It's still very unfamiliar, but just Yan Chi said that, Qin Wan felt safe and rich in his heart, and if he could be with Yan Chi for the rest of his life, what's the difference
