Chapter 291 Dad Died at the Hands of This Man
Chen Wan narrowed her beautiful black eyes, looking as if she was seriously recalling the plot.
"I know him? Who is it?"
Madam Shen wondered aloud.
All the generals she knows are under her husband's command, so the people who will go on the expedition in the plot are her husband's subordinates?
But her husband has so many talented people and generals under his command that she couldn't guess who it was for a while.
"Let me guess, I guess it's Pei Lin!"
The one who spoke was Chen Yaoxing. He looked at Chen Wan with an expression of great confidence, but he still asked, "Isn't that right, little sister?"
Shen Wan nodded.
[Yes, second brother guessed correctly, it is Pei Lin.]
Mrs. Shen: “…”
It was so easy to guess, but she didn't guess it. Compared with Yaoxing, she is really too stupid.
Before she could think further, Shen Wan's inner voice continued to sound, telling the story seriously.
[In the original plot, at this time, he had already fallen in love with the heroine and completely became a sharp sword in her hands, serving her at her beck and call, going through fire and water for her.]
The turmoil at Dingbei Pass is a great opportunity to gain military merit and prestige. For a military commander, it's a great opportunity. Su Haitang certainly doesn't want to give this opportunity to outsiders.
[So, she whispered to Xiao Yelin and recommended Pei Lin, who was obedient to her every word.]
Pei Lin pursued Su Haitang openly and openly, making no secret of his desire for her. This made Xiao Yelin feel disgusted and angry, and he hated Pei Lin from the bottom of his heart.
[However, when this kind of dislike is encountered by Uncle Seven or other close associates of the Shen family, it seems to be insignificant.]
[Between two evils, choose the lesser one. After careful consideration, Xiao Yelin finally chose Pei Lin.]
He appointed Pei Lin as the commander-in-chief of this campaign, and specially assigned Pei Lin's uncle, Deputy General Pei, as his deputy commander to assist in the battle.
【If you want to talk about major events, there really are some. 】
[The enemy's leader this time is Duochen Heli, the Third King of the Northern Di. He is treacherous and cunning, with ruthless tactics. Compared to him, Pei Lin seems a bit immature.]
Not only did he nearly die several times, but due to strategic errors, he also caused heavy casualties among his soldiers. Even his uncle, Lieutenant General Pei, died in the battle trying to save him.
[Finally, Dingbei Pass fell, and the Northern Di invaded en masse, wantonly slaughtering civilians along the border and capturing two cities in a row. The Yun Kingdom suffered heavy losses.]
Having said this, Shen Wan's inner voice suddenly stopped, and her expression became inexplicably sad.
Noticing the change in her mood, Mrs. Shen and the two brothers felt a tightness in their hearts, and a bad premonition emerged.
Shen Yaoxing asked worriedly, "Little sister, what's wrong with you?"
Everything was fine, why don't you continue?
And he looks so sad?
Chen Yaoxing was not sure whether she was sad for the soldiers who died tragically, or was thinking of something even worse.
If there is something worse, what is it?
Hearing his voice, Shen Wan came back to her senses, her eyes red.
[I just suddenly thought of Duochen Heli...]
[In the original plot, Dad died at the hands of this person.]
boom……
These words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the minds of Mrs. Shen and the two brothers, leaving their brains blank.
How could this happen???
As soon as this thought came to mind, several people instantly thought of Shen Yuanhong's ending in the original plot.
Chen Wan once said that in the original plot, Shen Yuanhong was eventually betrayed by treacherous officials and captured by the enemy. Afterwards, he was killed and his head was hung on the city gate.
It seems that the person who captured Shen Yuanhong was Duo Chen Heli.
Unexpectedly, this time, Shen Yuanhong would confront this person so soon.
Mrs. Shen was so angry that she looked at the two brothers with trembling lips. She wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be blocked by cotton and she couldn't make a sound.
My vision went dark and the whole world fell into silence.
"Mother, little sister..."
[Wu…]
In a trance, she heard the two brothers' anxious shouts and Shen Wan's crying. Then, her arms suddenly became lighter, and the little baby in her arms was quickly taken away, and she fell into a pair of strong arms.
[Big Brother…]
Chen Wan hugged Chen Mu's neck with tears in her eyes, looking pitiful.
She had been held by Madam Shen, but unexpectedly, Madam Shen suddenly felt dizzy and almost dropped her to the ground. Fortunately, the eldest and second brothers had good tacit understanding. One of them quickly hugged her while the other caught Madam Shen.
It’s not that she was frightened by the sudden situation, but after thinking about the plots involving Shen Yuanhong, she felt very upset and emotionally fragile.
"Don't be afraid, as long as big brother is here, I will never let my little sister get hurt."
Chen Mu thought she was frightened, so he reached out and gently touched her head to comfort her.
Although he looked normal, Shen Wan inexplicably felt that something was not right with his mood.
【oh. 】
Shen Wan responded obediently, not bothering to comfort him, and turned to look at Shen Yaoxing.
【Second brother, how is mother? 】
"It must be due to stimulation. It will be fine in a while."
Shen Yaoxing hugged Madam Shen with one hand and pinched her philtrum with the other. After hearing what Shen Wan said, he looked up and replied.
[Second brother, help mother to go to bed and rest.]
"Yeah, okay."
After hearing her words, Shen Yaoxing let go of Madam Shen's philtrum, bent down and picked her up, walked a few steps to the bed, put her down, and pulled the quilt over her.
"Brother, please put me next to Mom. I want to check her pulse."
Seeing that Mrs. Shen had not woken up yet, Shen Wan couldn't help but feel worried and wanted to confirm the situation in person.
"good."
Chen Mu also walked over, but he did not put Chen Wan on the bed. Instead, he still held her in his arms and sat beside the bed.
"Is this okay?"
【Well, I'll try.】
Shen Wan didn't understand why her elder brother was holding her and wouldn't let go, but she didn't ask. She grabbed Mrs. Shen's wrist and carefully took her pulse.
"How is it? Is Mom okay?"
As soon as she put her hand on him, Chen Yaoxing asked impatiently.
【Yeah, it’s nothing serious.】
[Mother has been very busy lately, sleep deprived, and also stressed out. She was so angry and emotionally unstable that she couldn't handle it for a moment and passed out. She will wake up soon.]
"Second brother, I'll prescribe some medicine. Please have someone prepare it and boil it for mother to take."
[My mother's health isn't very good and she needs some recovery.]
"good."
In less than five minutes, Chen Yaoxing copied the prescription, arranged the preparation and decoction of the medicine, and returned.
He looked at Chen Wan, and his expression no longer showed the evil and unruly look of the past, but only solemnity and seriousness.
"Little sister, Mom's medicine will be ready soon. Let's discuss Dad's matter now."
Shen Wan nodded and responded to him in her heart.
[That's exactly what I was thinking.]
[Now that I'm here, this time, I absolutely cannot let Dad go down the path of the plot.]
