"I can't hide anything from you." Xiao Ruyue slowly sat down.
Yin Lin stood up and poured Xiao Ruyue a cup of water. Xiao Ruyue accepted it but did not drink it. She held it in her hand and played with it, "Before you left the capital, did something happen?"
"What does the Empress mean?"
Xiao Ruyue slightly narrowed her eyes, as she said loudly, "What do you think?" It meant …
Yin Lin did not dare to hide it anymore, and told the truth.
"On the day the Empress was kidnapped, the Jun Family ordered for the security of the entire capital to be under martial law, especially the Dragon Light Sect which was sealed. They even wanted to chase out of the capital at the first possible moment, but were stopped by the Mr. Tang. The Mr. Tang pulled His Majesty's needles for a long time before letting them go. The king summoned Yue Xiang to the palace before leaving the palace, but no one knew what the king and Yue Xiang had said. As for the rest, this servant doesn't know either. "
"Then what about Sister Ya Yin? Did she enter the palace? "
Yin Lin shook her head: "Miss Liangqiu has always been in Courtyard."
Xiao Ruyue gave a "En" indicating that she understood. She drank her water but did not make a sound. It was unknown what she was thinking.
After a while, Lu Yi came back with two bowls of steaming hot noodles. "Empress, it's getting late and there's no time to cook anything good. So I asked the shopkeeper for some noodles and cooked two bowls of noodles."
When Xiao Ruyue saw the food, she became energetic and started eating happily.
With another bowl, Yin Lin and Lu Yi took out another small bowl and shared the food.
When Xiao Ruyue returned to her room after eating, she was already fully dressed, and out of nowhere, she took out a book and started reading. Xiao Ruyue then waved at her, "Come over."
Xiao Ruyue ignored him and slowly walked over, she looked unhappily as she snatched his book and threw it on the table, "What?"
"Didn't you eat your fill?" "Why aren't you happy?" He was helpless.
"I asked Chong Yang to rest, and asked him to go and do something for me tomorrow."
"Mm, it's up to you."
Xiao Ruyue replied lazily. Without taking off her clothes, she collapsed onto the bed. Yuwen He was not angry, on the contrary, she undressed her.
"Yuwen He." Halfway down, the empress sat up and hugged him.
"What's wrong?"
"Yuwen He."
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "What's going on?"
"It's nothing, I'll just call you. Yuwen He. "
"Hey, he's here."
Afterwards, he did not know how many times she had screamed, much less how many times he had answered. In the end, they were all annihilated in the darkness.
Whose tears quietly fell down.
It was completely silent.
On the morning of the second day, everyone woke up early and prepared to set off.
Xiao Ruyue knew she had to wake up early, so she woke up early.
"Why don't you sleep for a while?" He was already dressed, and only after hearing Xiao Ruyue's movements did he turn around.
Xiao Ruyue pouted as she crawled up and stared at him.
Yuwen He laughed, "I've already asked Lu Yi to make breakfast for you, you will be able to eat it in a while. I'll call you when we leave. "
"Why don't you rest more? Aren't we supposed to be on our way? "
"We have to hurry on our way, so we have to make arrangements in advance." I'm fine, you rest. I will have Tang Jingzhi come over later to take your pulse. " After Yuwen He finished speaking, he kissed her on the forehead and then left.
Xiao Ruyue pursed her lips and did not say a word.
After a while, she called Yin Lin in. After a simple wash up, Lu Yi's breakfast just happened to be delivered. During breakfast, Tang Jingzhi also came over.
When Yuwen He said that he wanted Tang Jingzhi to come over and take her pulse, Tang Jingzhi was not the least bit slurred. He seriously took her pulse and after muttering to himself for a moment, he said: "I'll give the Empress two more batches of medicine, the Empress must drink it on time. It was all thanks to the strength of this little prince that he was able to remain so strong. If he were an ordinary child, he would not be able to continue staying in the Empress' womb after so much suffering. "
There was a hidden meaning in his words, but there was a hidden meaning behind them.
"Indeed, nothing can be hidden from Mr. Tang's eyes." Since he had already been seen through, Xiao Ruyue did not hide it anymore and calmly smiled, "But I wonder why big sister Ya Yin did not come?"
Tang Jingzhi's smile froze, "You …"
They already said that they'd hit the snake until it hit seven inches, but the empress's actions were really ruthless.
"She really doesn't know anything. When we left the capital, she would be busy with matters in the Courtyard. By the time she came back to her senses, we should have rescued the empress already. That is what I intend to do. " Tang Jingzhi was a straightforward person, and did not hide the matter at all.
"Yes." Xiao Ruyue smiled slightly, "I also guessed that the Mr. Tang was doing all this for Sister Ya Yin. When Big Sister Ya Yin came back to her senses, I was already safe and sound, no matter how angry she was, Mister was still far away. When she returned, her anger was almost gone. Mr. Tang has thought about it very carefully. "
Tang Jingzhi did not deny it, "Empress, Yuwen He intended to go to the Fringe City to personally supervise the battle. I'm afraid that he has already sent out the imperial edict to announce this to the world."
Hearing that, Xiao Ruyue was startled, then calmly accepted the reality, "He's someone I want to live together with, wherever he goes, I'll go."
Tang Jingzhi understood tacitly, "I understand Empress's meaning. I went to check on the pulse of that Wenshansu, so the Empress must have also found out about his condition. Why would the Great General do anything to him? "
"I don't think it was the Great General who did it. From the looks of the poison, it seems to be Feng Yuting's methods. "Later on, I will think of a way to get rid of the poison in your body. Although this poison isn't fatal, it still won't be good if it remains in your body for a long time."
"Alright." Tang Jingzhi answered as he took out a small porcelain bottle that was made of Qing You and passed it over to Xiao Ruyue, "This is a pill to settle the child. The Empress can just take it after drinking warm water three times a day.
"Thank you very much." Xiao Ruyue smiled as he thanked her and personally saw her out of the door.
When the hour intersected with the hour, the party packed dry rations and water and set off.
The Great General's men had turned from three to five men into a dozen men, who knew where they came from, but Yuwen He's men had picked a few capable men to escort Yuwen Chenglian's corpse back to the capital, and there were only a few less.
Xiao Ruyue was riding on a carriage, and because they were going to rush over, Yuwen He ordered his men to make the carriage more comfortable and smooth, as it was not too bumpy when it came to running.
After finding a cool spot in the wilderness to rest and eat rations, they continued on their journey. Along the way, they would take care of Xiao Ruyue's body a few times to slow him down, but it was as if they were rushing over the whole time.
After rushing for two days, they finally arrived at the border city barracks at dusk of the second day.
The citizens of Fringe City were still enjoying their own lives. One could imagine how peaceful the arrival of the Great General made them feel. It was a testament to the position the general held in their hearts.
Vice General Yang Junda led his mount to welcome them. "This lowly general greets Your Majesty and the Empress."
Yuwen He maintained his expressionless face, "There's no need for formalities, rise."
The Great General glanced at Yang Junda, "This general didn't ask you to be the commander, why did you come back?"
"These days the Tartars have hung high on their war plates, and this general has followed the commands of the Great General and has not disturbed anyone. No one knows that the general has left the camp. "
Yang Junda's face turned serious.
The general said nothing more and led them deep into the camp, doing his part as the landowner.
Yang Junda arranged Yuwen He's group's tent near the general's area, surrounded by the army from all four sides. Thirteen and Chong Yang led their men and split into two teams, taking turns to rest and patrol.
As for the others, they had arranged everything in close proximity. A large group of people in the military camp was not too eye-catching. The military camp had always been overcrowded.
After the arrangements were made, the sky turned completely dark.
After Xiao Ruyue finished making the appropriate arrangements, she was the first one to rest. She took a shower, and then lay down comfortably.
He was too tired to move.
Yuwen He laid down beside her and heaved a sigh of relief, "Are you tired?"
"Fortunately, the carriage is very comfortable." Xiao Ruyue's voice was soft as she closed her eyes and leaned into Yuwen He's embrace.
"Did the child torment you?"
"He's still young. It's because I can't stand it. "
Yuwen He chuckled, "Mn, you rest. I'll call for you after dinner."
Xiao Ruyue then peacefully fell asleep.
This one squint lasted for less than an hour. When he woke up, he felt refreshed.
Dinner was also prepared.
In order to take care of so many people eating at the same time, the general had arranged two tables in the tent. The food was already very sumptuous, but he was still very modest when he spoke.
"Fringe City is close to the battlefield, and cannot be compared to the capital city or its surrounding areas. If you don't have a proper host, please take care of it, Imperial Brother." As he said that, he also bowed towards Yuwen He and Xiao Ruyue.
Xiao Ruyue smiled slightly and said: "Could it be that the whole world is filled with kings, or that the general has spent so much time and effort to bestow this reward to his king? What is there to say?"
When the general heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly recovered. "Yes, that's right, sister-in-law is right." Since all of these rivers and mountains belong to my brother, and what Chendi has done is only natural, I naturally do not dare to take any credit. "
"We will remember the merits of the great general. After we beat back the Tatar people, we will discuss the merits and rewards." Yuwen He said indifferently, and sat down with Xiao Ruyue in her arms.
Only then did the general sit down.
The rest of the people were just looking at them. Tang Jingzhi was the most intelligent out of old age, so he had already decided to take care of himself. He even called for Yin Lin, Chong Yang and Thirteen to go over.
As he ate, he muttered to himself, "Your Patriarch only has his beloved wife, Darling, in his eyes. The rest of you are all Elementalists, and won't be able to enter his eyes."
Yuwen He looked at him but did not refute him.
Instead, it was the Great General who gave him an extra glance, "This is the expert whose medical skills Brother spoke of, Mr. Tang, right? This general has long heard of you. "
"The general is courteous. The mountaineer has long heard of the great general's fame, and it is better to see than to hear of it." Tang Jingzhi spoke politely but silently cursed in his heart. It had been two or three days of interaction between the two of them before he finally decided to get close to him. He really did not know what the great general was thinking.
But it doesn't matter.
It was good that he liked it.
