Chapter 309: The Infatuation of a Powerful Official (94)



After the two of them talked it out, Lou Jinchuan's mood was obviously much better.

But he had a question: who deliberately concealed the information that his senior brother was looking for him?

Lou Jinchuan quickly thought of Li Yancheng.

Apart from this person, he couldn't think of anyone else who was causing trouble.

This person really went to great lengths to destroy the relationship between him and his senior brother.

Lou Jinchuan sneered in his heart.

The reason why the senior brother knew that they were in that kind of relationship was because Li Yancheng was secretly manipulating it and doing it on purpose.

When he thought of this, he instantly felt that his decision today was correct.

It would be best if Li Yancheng could understand one thing through today's events, that is, the relationship between him and his senior brother cannot be shaken by anyone. I hope he will give up and not do anything excessive again.

Otherwise, he would completely disregard the kindness that Li Yancheng had shown in taking care of his senior brother over the years and would oppose him.

Lou Jinchuan thought so, and soon, the maid came over with a steaming bowl of medicine.

Yan Xi drank it all in one gulp, then took a few bites of candied fruit and went to sleep peacefully.

When he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly thought of something and lost all sleepiness.

That’s not right. Isn’t this the medicine prescribed by Doctor Qiu?

Apart from Doctor Qiu and Mingzhu, no one knew that he was going to drink this medicine!

Yan Xi sat up from the bed and wanted to ask Lou Jinchuan for an explanation, but found that the room was empty and he was the only one left.

Lou Jinchuan went out at some point.

Damn! Having a long reaction time is not a good thing!

Although! He probably guessed that Doctor Qiu was someone this guy had planted next to him.

I'm speechless. This guy just likes to place surveillance cameras around him.

But he was used to it and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Habit is a terrible thing.

Yan Xi complained secretly and fell back to sleep.

Wait, if that's the case, then Lou Jinchuan already knows about the abnormality in his body...

When Yan Xi thought of this, he felt terrible and cursed in his heart.

Knowing that he is weak, you still demand whatever you want from him. What a beast!

But on second thought, Yan Xi suddenly lost interest and his eyes dimmed.

The medical level in this dimension is not high, and Doctor Qiu couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. Maybe he just treated it as an ordinary illness.

This is good, at least he doesn't have to worry about himself all day.

At the same time, Lou Jinchuan received a letter via carrier pigeon from the Yinzhou military camp.

The Huns provoked trouble, and his adoptive father, General Chen, was seriously injured, and he, the deputy general, was urgently needed to go back and take charge of the situation.

This matter is urgent and cannot be delayed. Lou Jinchuan must set off immediately to return to Yinzhou.

In order to handle the situation here, Lou Jinchuan repeatedly instructed his men to protect Liu Ma's family, and if that didn't work, to transfer them to a safe place to live.

As for Yan Xi, for safety reasons, he was sent back to Yanzhou. Shi Yi stayed behind to escort him back and provide him with strict protection.

The next morning, Yan Xi found himself staggering in a daze. He opened his eyes and saw that he was sleeping in a carriage. Lou Jinchuan's men were escorting him on horseback, but he didn't know where they were going.

After a quick look around, there was no sign of Lou Jinchuan.

Yan Xi frowned and lifted the car curtain.

Shi Yi, who was riding a steed, saw him sticking his head out, so he tightened the reins and turned around. He came in front of him, took out a letter from his lapel and handed it to him, saying politely and respectfully: "Master He, this is a letter from my master. You will know after reading it."

Yan Xi looked at the four words "Senior Brother's Letter", took it, opened it and took a look, his brows furrowed, and a deep worry flashed in his eyes.

"Besides this, did your master say anything else?"

"The master has asked me to protect Master He and make sure you take your medicine on time every day, get enough rest, and take good care of yourself until he returns."

Yan Xi nodded, folded the letter, and felt heavy-hearted.

The battle between the Li Dynasty and the Huns finally came.

No matter how he changed, Lou Jinchuan still followed the original plot.

I believe that after this battle, he will become famous.

By that time, it would be difficult for me to complete the task.

Yan Xi pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling a little worried.

It is now the beginning of spring. Once a war breaks out, the people of Yinzhou will definitely suffer terribly. Taxes will probably increase across the country, and the people in other places will not be much better off.

Thinking of this, Yan Xi came up with a good idea to kill two birds with one stone.

He could use the money he had earned from running restaurants, teahouses and some shops over the years to fill the gaps. In this way, the people could be relieved of their pressure and the court would have less burden.

All of this he must donate in his own name.

Having made up his mind, Yan Xi returned safely to Yanzhou and wrote a personal letter, instructing Shi Yi to send it to the heads of the many restaurants and teahouses under his name. He also wrote a memorial, ready to be delivered to the emperor at any time.

Two days later, the Xiongnu army officially attacked, and Yinzhou rushed 800 miles to report the matter to the court.

General Chen was seriously injured and died without surviving the critical period.

The general who defended the country was executed not long ago.

At this critical moment, there was no one in the court who could be used.

Just when the emperor was worried, General Chen's confidant sent a letter of recommendation, strongly recommending General Chen's adopted son Wang Qing, also known as Lou Jinchuan, as the commander-in-chief.

Some military officers, relying on their seniority, opposed the appointment of a newcomer as commander-in-chief.

General Chen's former subordinates then asked coldly, apart from the current method, who else could be the commander-in-chief of this battle.

Those people fell silent instantly.

The Li Dynasty unified the country not long ago. In the previous few decades, it had been supporting civil officials and neglecting the training of military officers. The older generation of military officers were no longer able to fight, and there were simply not enough people.

Emperor Li Dingzhou was well aware of the seriousness of the matter and had no choice but to appoint General Chen's adopted son.

As a result, the imperial court placed almost all its hopes of victory on Lou Jinchuan.
