Thinking of this, the War King's eyes darkened. Happy days are short-lived after all.
He asked Xianghe and Chunhe to take Yuebao and Xibao, and the War King pinched their noses. "Yuebao, Xibao. Grandpa is gone. You must be obedient."
King Zhan greeted Yuebao and Xibao.
He squatted down and hugged Dabao and Erbao, "Dabao and Erbao, can you write a letter to grandpa?"
"Yes." Dabao and Erbao said at the same time.
"Grandpa, I will draw a picture of my sister for you."
Dabao nodded and said, "Then I'll write a letter to tell Grandpa what my sisters did every day? And also tell Grandpa and Grandma what they did every day?"
The War King touched the heads of the two little guys, stood up and walked outside.
Yuebao and Xibao pouted and looked at Zhan Wang pitifully. After Zhan Wang left, they both burst into tears.
The War King did not stop, for he was afraid that he would not be able to bear to leave.
Indeed, he was reluctant to leave because he had something to worry about.
But I had to leave.
Dong Qi's group needs him to take charge. This group of people are born rebellious and may not listen to Gu Beiheng.
He must help Gu Beiheng to subdue these people.
After passing through an Aquarius Gate, I saw Qin Wan standing opposite.
The War King moved his mouth but didn't say anything, he just moved aside to let Qin Wan pass first.
"I came to find you." Qin Wan said softly.
The War King raised his eyes to look at Qin Wan, waiting for Qin Wan to tell him what was going on.
Qin Wan hesitated for a few breaths, and finally said only one sentence. "Take care of yourself. Don't let the children worry about you."
The War King couldn't help but ask, "Wan'er, are you worried about me?"
Qin Wan walked over without saying a word, brushing past the War King. She reached the other side of the Aquarius Gate and paused. "Come back after the battle. The children's home is also your home."
The War King silently replied in his heart: Wan'er, my home is where you are willing to be.
He didn't dare to say it out loud, but just looked at her eagerly. "Wan'er, us?"
Qin Wan didn't say anything else and turned away.
The War King looked at the empty Aquarius Gate in disappointment and turned away. He almost reached the gate and took a deep breath to hide his disappointment.
"Mo Yuan, you must come back safely." Qin Wan stood at the door of Aquarius Gate, holding onto the wall with his hand.
Zhan Wang quickly ran over and hugged Qin Wan in his arms. "Wan'er, can you wait for me?"
Qin Wan hesitated for a moment, but still hugged Zhan Wang with her backhand. Zhan Wang held her tightly in his arms and nodded gently.
"Help Bei Heng recapture Dong Qi. I will pray for you every day and bless you to return safely."
"Mo Yuan, this is what we owe Bei Heng."
War King felt a warm current in his chest and nodded seriously.
He cleared away the depression in his heart. Nothing could make him happier than Qin Wan telling him that he must come back safely.
"Wan'er." King Zhan couldn't help but kiss Qin Wan on the forehead.
Qin Wan released the arm around Zhan Wang and handed him a purse. "Here is the Shurangama Sutra, written by me. I've placed it before the Buddha for three days. You must carry it with you for safety."
"Okay. Tie it for me."
Qin Wan lowered his head and tied the purse to his waist belt.
They still had to part, but the War King's mood was different. Now he knew that someone cared about him and was waiting for his return.
Finally, he placed a kiss on Qin Wan's cheek and turned away again.
When they arrived outside the courtyard gate, Gu Beiheng and Su Qi were directing the servants to put things away.
"Dad, I'll let Long Tianer go with you."
The War King shook his head. "Besides Chi Feng, I have other secret guards. Long Tianer and the others are your secret guards. They will follow you."
The War King rejected Gu Beiheng.
He seemed to be in a bad mood and his face was still cold.
Su Qi handed the box to Zhan Wang and told him what was inside. "Dad, we'll wait for you to come back." Seeing Zhan Wang's expression, she knew that Qin Wan and him had made no progress.
"Beiheng, Qiqi. I'll leave your mother to you." After saying this, the War King smiled from his tense face. "Wan'er said to wait for me to come back."
Gu Beiheng and Su Qi looked at the War King in surprise.
Before Su Qi could even say a word, the War King's horse had already broken into a gallop. "You guys go back," his voice carried over the wind.
"Beiheng, what's going on with Dad and Mom? Has Mom finally forgiven Dad?" Su Qi placed her hand in Gu Beiheng's, interlocking their fingers. "Do you want Dad to come back soon?"
Gu Beiheng held Su Qi in his arms and said thankfully, "Let's wait until Dad changes the minds of his men. After all, in their minds, the Gu Family Army is the Gu Family Army of Dashun."
"Qiqi. Fortunately, there was no misunderstanding between us. During the two years we were apart, I missed you every day and night."
Su Qi couldn't help but scolded, "You're the only one who's so sweet-talking. We have to leave and go back. We need to think about where we're going to settle down."
Gu Beiheng smiled and said:
"Then we need to think carefully about the location. It would be best if it were on the territory of Dashun, so that we can radiate to Daiyue, Beiliang, Nanli, and Dongqi."
Their ambitions are so great that no capital of any country can be their capital.
Su Qi looked up at the birds flying in the sky and said with a smile:
"Then go back and think about it carefully."
The two smiled at each other and went back to the house. Of course, they were not thinking about where they would settle down in the future.
The two of them had to go to the nearby county to see if there were any lepers there and bring the prescription with them.
At the garrison camp in Datian Village.
Gu Beiting has been looking through medical books these past two days.
Yun Xiaobo went to Huichuntang in Yun County to study the prescription with the old doctor.
Gu Beijing was in charge of the trade city, and Mengjiazhuang also began to implement closed management. No one was allowed to enter or leave, and everything was done in the village.
The bearded man stared at the garrison camp. Besides Xiao Teng, several other people showed early symptoms of leprosy. These people were all isolated not far from Xiao Teng.
Doctor Ariha is caring for someone with early-stage leprosy.
"Miss Ting, is there any progress?" A bearded man walked in from outside the tent, holding a food box in his hand.
Gu Beiting shook her head, a look of worry on her face. "I'm so stupid and useless."
Gu Beiting wanted to help Su Qi with something, but she found that she could not help at all. She could not help but hit her head lightly in frustration.
The bearded man held Gu Beiting's hand to stop her from hitting her head.
"Even the old doctors at Huichuntang can't help. You don't have to blame yourself." The bearded man's hands were rough, but they felt soft and warm when he held Gu Beiting's. "Come over and eat first, okay? I asked the kitchen to make some chicken soup."
Although he told Gu Beiting to eat, the bearded man did not let go of her hand.
The two of them had a good impression of each other, and even liked each other. However, Qiu Xiaoyao made Gu Beiting retreat that time, and also made the bearded man realize the gap between them.
He left the trading city and joined the military camp in the hope of making a contribution.
Gu Beiting's ears were stained pink, and she lowered her head, revealing only one pink cheek, small ears, and a slender neck.
The bearded man's ears were hot from watching this.
He couldn't help but let go of Gu Beiting's hand and murmured, "Miss Ting. Come over and have dinner first."
"Yeah. Have you eaten?" Gu Beiting retracted her hand. Her left hand, which had been grabbed by the bearded man, still had an indescribable feeling.
"not yet."
"Let's go together."
Gu Beiting opened the food box and the bearded man took the bowl next to it.
The two of them cooperated with each other to serve rice and make soup.
The food they ate was the same ordinary meal as the generals, but with the addition of a ginseng stewed pheasant soup.
The pheasant was hunted by the bearded man in the mountains, and the ginseng was fresh ginseng he had found in the forest. The pheasant soup was very delicious.
Gu Beiting and the bearded man didn't talk while eating.
After finishing her meal quietly, she looked up and found the bearded man looking at her.
Thinking about how they almost ended up together, why bother with this now? Gu Beiting's eyes darkened, "Brother Qiu, I want to ask you something."
