The commander-in-chief of Qi State helped his wife to sit on the edge of the bed. Hong Yusu looked down at the two of them vigilantly, holding the Dragon Slaying Sword.
"Master, look at how cute this girl is."
Fu Tong'er closed her eyes and kept murmuring "Master Jiu".
Zhu Dingfang, the commander of the Qi State, said, "Humph, the Ninth Master she's talking about is the murderer of our son."
"Master, she has Ran'er's martial arts in her body. I believe Ran'er likes her very much. We only have Ran'er as a child... and we have never had a daughter..."
The lady choked up again and said, "I will adopt her as my daughter... regardless of whether the master agrees or not. There are no hostages from the State of Yan here, only goddaughters."
Hong Yusu added, "Give her a mild abortion medicine."
"She is pregnant? But whose child is it?" asked the lady.
Zhu Dingfang, the commander-in-chief of Qi, said: "She is the imperial concubine of the Emperor of Yan."
"Emperor Yan's offspring?" The old woman turned her head and lowered her eyes to look at Fu Tong'er who was lying unconscious.
"Nineth Master...Nineth Master..." Fu Tong'er was still pondering with her eyes closed.
"Is it the Emperor of Yan's child, or the Regent Prince Chun's child?!"
Mrs. Zhu's expression changed instantly!
…
Hong Yusu held the Dragon Slaying Sword and did not answer.
At this time, Fu Tong'er woke up.
"You...are..." She was already a well-behaved girl, and when she spoke, the lady actually liked her again.
"She's really quiet and gentle." Wiping her tears, the lady said to the Qi commander Zhu Dingfang behind her, "Master, please ask the king to grant her a princess title. We will adopt her as our goddaughter."
Hong Yusu: "..."
This old lady is really fickle.
Zhu Dingfang stood up and said, "She is a hostage sent by the State of Yan. Now she is in our palace. Your Majesty will..."
"Master is the commander-in-chief of the three armies. I only want to adopt a goddaughter who has my son's skills in her body. Master, you can't even agree to this request?"
Zhu Dingfang walked out.
Mrs. Zhu asked, "What's your name?"
Fu Tong'er glanced at Hong Yusu beside the bed, then retracted her gaze and whispered, "Madam, it's me, Fu Tong'er."
"Fu Tong'er?" Madam Zhu was startled. "But she's the daughter of Prime Minister Fu Minhuan of Dian State and the sister of General Fu Lei, Fu Tong'er?"
Fu Tong'er pursed her lips: "Yes, ma'am."
Madam Zhu stood up and suddenly shouted, "Come here! Throw the Dayan hostage into the cell!"
Fu Tong'er was frightened, and all of a sudden——
Hong Yusu blocked Fu Tong'er's bed with a dragon-slaying sword!
Zhu Dingfang, the commander of the Qi State, walked in and said, "Madam, calm down. She is a hostage sent by the Emperor of Yan and cannot be put in the cell."
Fu Tong'er mustered up the courage to ask, "Did my brother offend you two?"
Madam Zhu cried out, "Your brother took my son to the Guizi Kingdom in the Western Regions and signed a poisonous python contract, turning him into neither a human nor a ghost!"
"I, I, don't know. I, I don't remember anything that happened in the past six months."
"Your brother deserves death!" Madam Zhu roared, lying on her master in agony. "My poor child."
"Yes, I'm sorry... I didn't know..." Fu Tong'er couldn't help crying, she didn't know why she was crying.
Hong Yusu sat down at the head of the bed, holding the Dragon Slaying Sword, and said to Fu Tong'er, who was lying on the bed: "What does it have to do with you? That's a matter between them."
As he said this, he stroked Fu Tong'er's head.
He then said to Madam Zhu, "She doesn't need to be a princess of your Qi State. Since she was sent here as a hostage by Dayan, just arrange for her to stay in an ordinary inn where hostages stay. Don't involve her in your grudges!"
Qiao'er looked at Hong Yusu from the side. General Hong really protected his young lady to the utmost.
Qi State Commander Zhu Dingfang looked at Hong Yusu for a long time and asked, "Who is General Hong to this Imperial Noble Consort?"
"Master! Take them away!"
…
In the territory of Daqi, there is a humble house and a half-thatched house.
Fu Tong'er was shivering on the cold wooden bed.
Hong Yusu was sitting on the edge of the bed holding the Dragon Slaying Sword, while Qiao'er was making a fire beside him.
"It's really like heaven and earth all the time." Qiao'er added the firewood helplessly. "Miss, you said it would have been better if you hadn't married Dayan. You were the daughter of the richest man in our Dian Kingdom, and you had the best food, clothing, and daily necessities! But you insisted on marrying King Hui, and after that, you followed Master Jiu. Master Jiu was so cruel to you even after he lost his memory, and he didn't care about you and the child at all. You should have been better off with King Hui."
Hong Yusu took off his cloak and covered Fu Tong'er with it: "Instead of saying these useless words, you might as well persuade your young lady to accept me."
Qiao'er looked up at Hong Yusu, and her heart was a little shaken.
Fu Tong'er was shivering from the cold.
The climate in Qi, by May, is as cold as the twelfth lunar month.
Hong Yusu stood up and touched Fu Tonger's head: "I'll ask the store to bring a quilt."
At this moment, a group of people rushed into the inn and shouted, "Where are the hostages sent by Yan State? Hand them over!"
Fu Tong'er was lying on the bed and felt something wet under the quilt. When she touched it, she found a pool of blood.
Qiao'er was startled and stood up suddenly: "Oh no, there are signs of miscarriage! General Hong, go find a doctor!"
