Chapter 640 A Letter Home? She's been found to be pregnant!!
Qin Ling pulled Li Yunchu, whose face was full of disappointment, away.
After leaving the house, Li Yunchu finally showed some distress: "Luo'er still won't forgive me or accept me."
"I really went too far with her back then."
"But I'm still better off than her parents, aren't I?"
Qin Mausoleum: ...
In comparison, I'm actually better than Princess Qinyu.
Ah, but he dared not say it.
He was barely surviving now, and all he wanted was for the baby in his little darling's womb to be born safely so that he and his wife could be completely free.
If we adopt ten or eight children and teach them medicine, won't we be able to enjoy family life in the future?
Qin Ling felt a surge of joy just thinking about it.
After Qin Ling and Li Yunchu left, Zhui Yu also rushed over with a letter.
"Miss, His Highness has sent a letter."
Upon hearing the sound, Li Qingluo immediately sat up.
"A letter from Shi? Quick, give it to me!"
This is Duan Rongshi's second letter!
After receiving the previous letter, Li Qingluo replied to Duan Rongshi with a brief two-sentence response.
"All is well, please do not worry."
She really didn't know how to describe the dangers she had encountered along the way, so she simply kept silent about them.
Today, she finally received Duan Rongshi's second letter.
As her unborn child grew, Li Qingluo missed Duan Rongshi more and more each day as she touched her belly.
It has been four months since they parted, but to her it felt like four years.
I wanted to go back as soon as possible, but I ended up getting deeper and deeper into trouble.
Zhuiyu presented a thick stack of letters with both hands.
Even he couldn't help but feel aggrieved for his master: "Miss, look at the letter His Highness gave you, the envelope is practically bursting open."
"This time, it wasn't sent by carrier pigeon, but rather a special person was dispatched who spent more than a month to deliver this thick stack to you."
"His Highness must be missing you terribly, but you, on the other hand, only replied with two short sentences last time."
Li Qingluo blushed with embarrassment: "Then how do you want me to report back to Your Highness?"
"They said we killed Baza in Eagle King City."
"Tell me about the several perilous encounters we had in the secret cave?"
"Tell me about the many crises you encountered on your way to Loulan, or how you were besieged there and almost couldn't make it out?"
"Not a single one can be mentioned."
"Your Highness's current situation is not much better than ours, with a treacherous court and a chaotic situation."
"What we should do is not cause trouble or distract him."
"Alright, you can go out now. Don't disturb me while I read the letter."
Zhuiyu naturally agreed wholeheartedly with the female lead's analysis.
So, with her head hanging low, she could only obediently leave.
Li Qingluo quickly opened the letter.
Upon seeing the familiar handwriting, she couldn't help but tear up.
Without hesitation, she quickly looked down.
However, the more Li Qingluo looked, the more serious her expression became.
The Chu emperor openly announced at the national sacrificial ceremony that he would launch a military campaign against the Western Regions.
He appointed Duan Rongshi as the Grand Marshal of the Three Armies, ordering him to lead the soldiers of Great Chu to reclaim all the cities that the Western Regions had seized from Great Chu!
Upon hearing this news, the people of Great Chu were filled with patriotic fervor.
Their Great Chu has been humiliated for twenty years.
Over the past twenty years, our territory has been gradually eroded and lost, and we have encountered a cowardly tyrant who only knows how to cede cities and constantly pushes forward.
The Great Chu was already in turmoil, and the people's hearts were unsettled.
The lives of ordinary people are getting worse day by day, and they are living in misery.
Within just two months of Li Qingluo's departure, Duan Rongshi had already suppressed eight rebel armies that had risen up in rebellion.
Perhaps it was Duan Rongshi's abilities as the King of Yue that gave the people of Chu a glimmer of hope.
Over the years, our land has been lost, and we are in a state of turmoil.
If things continue like this, it's only a matter of time before the Great Chu Kingdom is destroyed.
Those scholars and soldiers were all determined to restore the country, so when the conscription notice was issued and the King of Yue was appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Three Armies, young men rushed to join the army one after another, all wanting to serve their country.
In his letter, Duan Rongshi wrote that he had never expected the people of Great Chu to be even more passionate and enthusiastic than the people of Great Liang.
Moreover, they seemed to have great faith in their newly appointed general.
He didn't understand why they believed him.
Even the people of Da Liang didn't believe him, yet the people of Da Chu actually believed that this Yue King, who had appeared out of nowhere, would lead them to reclaim their land.
However, Duan Rongshi still accepted the tiger tally.
And they intend to use their true hearts to reclaim those cities for the Great Chu.
This goes against some of his initial plans.
However, he did not regret it.
As long as the people can live and work in peace and contentment in the future, even if Duan Rongshi loses something in the process, he feels it is all worthwhile.
Duan Rongshi then mentioned Mantuo City again.
He then said, "Luo'er, you must have already guessed who Lan Haiwang is, right?"
"Lanhai is a small border kingdom."
"On a small scale, perhaps no one in the Western Regions, Liang, or Chu has ever paid attention to it."
"But it is indeed real."
"It is located at the foot of Kunshan Mountain, in the northernmost part of the border between the Western Regions and Daliang."
"If possible, I will tell you the story of my grandmother the next time we meet."
Besides that, Duan Rongshi went on and on about many complicated matters.
For example, one day he ate a pastry that was very difficult to eat.
For example, he personally captured an assassin in his residence.
For example, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he and the Emperor of Chu paid homage to his mother.
The streets were filled with people carrying lanterns, but he was all alone.
He misses her dearly and longs for his wife to return home soon.
Li Qingluo accepted the letter and pressed it tightly against her chest.
After a long while, she watched it twice more.
Only then did he pick up his pen to reply:
“Ah Shi, I have received your letter. I am very happy to see your handwriting and to hear about the important things that have happened to you recently.”
"To be honest, I am currently in the capital city of Hara in the Western Regions."
“Master has been rescued, and I have also met with Nanping. If all goes well, regardless of the outcome, I will rush back to reunite with you as soon as possible.”
"As for the matter of the Great Chu's expedition to the Western Regions, since you have decided to lead the army, I will fully support you."
"The people of Great Chu regard you as the hope for saving their country. It must be because they have seen your talent and ability to suppress the rebel army that they have regained their confidence and believe that the country can regain its former glory."
“Ah Shi, I know you love the people.”
"Whether they are from the Great Chu or the Great Liang, you yourself are of both national bloodlines, so there is no need for any psychological burden."
"By the way, Shi, there's something else I wanted to tell you."
“In the Western Regions, I may have met your blood relatives.”
"We'll discuss everything in detail when we meet again. Peace, Luo'er."
Although the word count is still less than Duan Rongshi's, it is still much better than the last time.
After the ink on the letter dried, Li Qingluo personally sealed the envelope before calling Zhuiyu over.
"Send it out urgently."
Zhuiyu squeezed the thickness of the envelope. Although she was not satisfied, she did not dare to complain.
He just stared at the mistress with a resentful look, then quickly turned and left.
As soon as Zhuiyu left, Anar returned.
"Let's go, you come with me yourself."
Li Qingluo was about to lie down, but had to get up quickly.
She slowly got up and put on the fur. The wind in the Western Regions was like a knife cutting into her flesh. If it weren't absolutely necessary, Li Qingluo really didn't want to go out.
Que'er quickly came forward to help Li Qing with her clothes, while Anar waited impatiently to the side.
Until she inadvertently glanced at Li Qingluo's stomach.
Although her robes were bulky and loose, she felt that something was wrong with her body.
Could it be...?
Anar narrowed her eyes, then stared intently at Li Qingluo.
Li Qinglu noticed her strange look and quickly touched her cheek: "But where did I get Hanako?"
Anar: "It's nothing, just come out as soon as you're ready."
After she finished speaking, she got up and went outside to wait.
Li Qingluo was puzzled, but Que'er said, "Why does it feel like the Empress Dowager of Wusun's tone suddenly softened a lot just now?"
Li Qingluo: "Really?"
She's been a bit slow to react lately.
The Qin Mausoleum is said to be normal.
Many women who are about to become mothers have poor memory and reflexes.
Therefore, Li Qingluo has been forgetting things lately.
But surely she wouldn't be oblivious to a change in someone's attitude?
Little did Li Qingluo know that Anar had already guessed that she might be pregnant, and since the people around her kept calling her "girl," they assumed that Li Qingluo, like herself, had encountered a heartless man and was forced to travel alone while pregnant.
Her current situation is even worse than her own back then.
At that moment, Anar felt a sense of shared fate with Li Qingluo.
She had it tough too...
He was even threatened by himself to come to Hara City.
Never mind, I'll be kinder to her in the future.
After Li Qing landed, she walked ahead, her pace slowing considerably.
Even Li Qingluo noticed that Anar was indeed more considerate and patient than before.
When they finally arrived at the gate of the mansion, Nangong Di had been waiting for them for a long time.
"Master."
Li Qingluo went over to greet him, "How are you?"
Nangong Di had been feeling unwell throughout the journey.
Qin Ling clearly said that his injuries were all superficial and had not affected his bones, but Nangong Di remained depressed day by day.
I'm taking the medicine every day, but I just can't get completely cured.
Li Qingluo suspected that Qin Ling was a quack doctor.
Qin Ling felt insulted and jumped higher than eight zhang (approximately 33 meters).
"He has a mental illness; how can I cure him?"
"If you can't let go of your resentment, even if your stepfather came, he would be helpless!"
stepfather...
Luo Fan, far away in Rong Le, sneezed violently.
Looking at her with concern, Madam Pei said, "You are a doctor yourself, surely you haven't contracted typhoid fever yourself?"
Luo Fan chuckled, "Yeah. It's all because you stole my blanket last night, leaving me freezing outside all night."
Madam Pei blushed and glared at him fiercely: "What nonsense are you talking about? Go away, don't get in my way. I need to write to Luo'er and ask her when she'll be back."
“She’s an aunt now, and she’s been gone for several months.”
"I wonder how things are in the Western Regions, whether they managed to rescue that guy Nangong Di."
Luo Fan remained silent for a moment.
He knew about her inner conflict.
Such a peaceful waiting was not in her nature.
So he simply asked, "Jingchuan's health is usually most vulnerable in winter, but he's much better this year. He doesn't need me to take care of him all day, and he should be able to get through this winter."
"His child with Alan is now four months old. Do you want to go to Manto City?"
"If you want to go, I will go with you."
