Chapter 67: The Dignified Lady and the Cold and Ascetic General 31



The Xiliang spy sitting nearby did not look relaxed, but rather looked even more solemn.

He had dealt with Jiang Chen for several years and always felt that he shouldn't fall so easily.

But he watched him eat the poisonous insect with his own eyes.

Adoli patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come on, drink!"

The southern barbarians deserve the name of barbarians.

We are going to attack the city tomorrow, but we are still eating and drinking here today.

No need to worry about getting drunk and making mistakes.

If Adole knew what this person was thinking, he would probably sneer, saying that the southern barbarians drink more wine than water.

Drinking just a few bottles of wine is just like peeing.

Jiang Chen looked at the city that was already half empty, rubbed his brows and planned to go down the city wall.

But when he turned around, he suddenly froze on the spot. He watched her slowly walking towards him, and was actually a little greedy and unwilling to take his eyes away.

When Qingyin approached, Jiang Chen asked in a hoarse voice, "Why didn't you leave?"

Qingyin was about to speak when Jiang Chen held her hand and gently brought her into his arms.

If he hadn't considered that she was pregnant, he would have really wanted to rub her into his bones and blood.

Qingyin climbed onto his shoulders, raised her face and kissed him, "Husband..."

Jiang Chen held the back of her neck with his palm and kissed her back hard.

When Changfeng brought Qingyin over, he hid in the corner, fearing that Jiang Chen would see him.

Suddenly, he heard a faint panting sound and couldn't help but secretly stick his head out.

Before he could even stick his head out, a pair of large hands covered his eyes. "How dare you peek into the general's affairs? You're so bold!"

Yingzhu pulled Changfeng away for a long distance, and couldn't help scolding him, "Didn't the general ask you to send your wife back to the capital? Why did you send her here? Do you know it's very dangerous here?"

Changfeng didn't dare to say anything.

He doesn't want to either!

If he had known this would happen, he would definitely not have shown his loyalty.

Qingyin's whole body went limp from the kiss, and just when she was about to suffocate, Jiang Chen gently kissed her lips, ending the long kiss.

Qingyin's legs were a little weak as she hung on Jiang Chen's body.

"Promising!"

After saying that, Jiang Chen picked up Qingyin with a smile on his lips.

Qingyin was held in Jiang Chen's arms, with her hands hooked around his neck and her face buried deep in his arms.

Smelling the cold pine scent on the man, she felt at this moment that the uneasiness she had been feeling for days had dissipated.

Jiang Chen carried Qingyin to the temporary resting room on the city wall. He carefully placed her on the couch and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Qingyin shook her head lightly, "No, the baby has always been very well behaved."

Jiang Chen then turned his gaze to Qingyin's belly.

That night, he had been staring at it for a long time.

Still feeling that he hadn't seen enough, he slowly covered it with his hand, his eyes and heart softening.

Qingyin couldn't help herself and finally secretly touched Jiang Chen's head with her hand, "Be good..."

Jiang Chen: "..."

Qingyin withdrew her hand guiltily, "Well, my hair is a little messy."

Jiang Chen didn't look at Qingyin again, as if he accepted this lame excuse.

He stood up and poured her a cup of tea. When she took it, he said, "I'll ask Changfeng to take you back to Beijing later."

Qingyin tightened her grip on the cup and asked softly, "Can I not reply?"

She has Xiaoqi, and Xiaoqi can protect her.

That's why she didn't leave.

Jiang Chen looked at her deeply, and after a long moment, he slowly shook his head. "The Southern Barbarians have mobilized their entire nation's forces this time, so this battle is bound to be extremely dangerous. Furthermore, Xiliang is eyeing them covetously."

What he didn't mention was that the national treasury had long been empty after so many years of tug-of-war with Xiliang.

In the final battle, if a mysterious person had not donated a large amount of food, he would not have been able to seize the opportunity to defeat Xiliang in one fell swoop.

After that, the gold, silver and treasures promised by Xiliang had not been delivered to him. His spies found out that Xiliang had secretly transported those gold, silver and treasures to Nanman.

Therefore, this battle is likely to be disastrous.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen's eyes were filled with determination, and he coaxed: "Let's go back to the capital, okay?"

Qingyin opened her mouth slightly, wanting to refuse, but couldn't bear to make Jiang Chen worry, so after a long time she murmured "Hmm."

Qingyin followed Changfeng and went around from the other side.

I hadn't noticed it before in the government office, but now I'm shocked to realize that the four words "devastated" are a true portrayal of the situation.

The cold wind was howling, and Qingyin realized that it was already early winter.

She wrapped her cotton coat tightly around her body, but as if she felt something, she looked up.

It just happened to fall into a pair of bottomless black eyes, stirring up ripples.

Qingyin sniffed, and before anyone could react, she turned around and ran towards Jiang Chen, lifting her skirt.

Jiang Chen looked at Qingyin who was about to step onto the stairs. Without thinking too much, he jumped down from the city wall. Then he hugged Qingyin and landed steadily beside her with a tiptoe.

Qingyin lay in his arms and said in a muffled voice: "I won't leave, please don't chase me away, okay?"

Jiang Chen looked at the top of Qingyin's head for a long time before he softly replied, "Okay."

The woman in his arms smiled instantly.

Changfeng watched this scene from afar and almost cried.

He never thought that one day he would see the general lose his composure.

It's so rare.

It's really rare.

She knew how to hide her tracks, so she immediately asked Changfeng to find her a set of men's clothes.

She also asked Xiaoqi to give her a beard.

She had dressed almost like this when she was in the capital before.

But she forgot that her army delivering food would arrive soon.

So, when their eyes met, Shopkeeper Xue bowed to Qingyin without thinking, "Boss, why are you here?"

The boss had only sent a message asking you to leave as soon as possible, but he didn't say that he was coming too.

If he had known his boss was here, he would have set off earlier.

When Changfeng heard the word "Dongjia", the smile on his face began to crack.

He must have heard it wrong.

How could Madam be the owner of this mysterious caravan?

You know, it was this mysterious caravan that delivered a large amount of food and medicinal materials last time.

Moreover, these people did good deeds without leaving their names and left after delivering the gifts, leaving him with no way to express his gratitude.

After the war, some people wanted to investigate the caravan, but were stopped by the general.

Changfeng knew that the general wanted to protect them.

After all, being able to bring so much food and medicinal materials at once requires both financial resources and capabilities that cannot be underestimated.

Some people who are short-sighted will naturally be concerned about it.

Qingyin was also a little confused. How could she have forgotten about this? If she had known this, she would not have worn this standard beard.

In the tent.

Jiang Chen took off his armor and sat behind the desk. He then looked at someone who hadn't dared to look him in the eye since he came back. "Tell me, what's going on with the boss?"

Qingyin twitched the corner of her mouth, "Well, is it possible that Dongjia is another name of mine?"

"continue."

The man picked up the military book on the table and his eyes fell on the words marked on it.

Continue what?

Qingyin's face was full of question marks.

Even without looking up, Jiang Chen could guess Qingyin's expression. He turned a page before continuing, "Edit."
