The Jin Dynasty won the battle of Yongcheng.
To be precise, Shanzhou and Tongzhou gathered together at Jiuyou Mountain Stronghold and won the victory.
In this way, Zhao Zhongliang's wife and children as hostages lost their meaning.
After Zhu Chuanming and Mrs. Zhao discussed it, they decided to send them back to Yecheng, and Luo Qingqing led a small team to escort them.
Mrs. Zhao and her two children were all well-educated and well-mannered. In front of the people from Jiuyou Village, they did not look down on them just because they came from a family of officials.
They stayed in Jiuyou Mountain Village for a few days. It couldn't be said that they got along well with everyone, but they did get along well with each other.
When Mrs. Zhao and others left, many people in the village were reluctant to see them go.
Jiuyou Mountain Stronghold is not far from Yecheng.
Luo Qingqing led the team in front, and Zhao's servants followed behind carrying sedan chairs and driving carriages.
Zhao Yuanyi would occasionally rush forward to talk to Luo Qingqing.
When he was in the mountain stronghold, after seeing Luo Qingqing's martial arts, he always wanted Luo Qingqing to teach him.
Zhao Yuanyi said excitedly, "Luo Qing, when we get to Yecheng, can you stay for a while and teach me martial arts?"
A few days ago, Zhao Yuanyi mentioned to Luo Qingqing that he wanted Luo Qingqing to go to the prefectural yamen to teach him martial arts, but unfortunately Luo Qingqing refused.
Now he had to settle for the second best and wanted Luo Qingqing to stay in Yecheng for a while longer.
Luo Qingqing didn't say anything.
Zhao Yuanyi said again: "Your brothers in the village are all in Yecheng now. It's the same whether you are in the village or in Yecheng. Besides, Yecheng is much more fun than the village."
Luo Qingqing smiled but didn't answer.
She wanted to stay in Yecheng.
Her goal is to become Xiao Jiuchen's right-hand man.
Xiao Jiuchen is not in the mountain village now, and it is very likely that he will live in Yecheng in the future. There is no point for her to stay in the mountain village.
But this matter depends on whether Xiao Jiuchen is willing or not.
As the leader of the stronghold, if Xiao Jiuchen insisted on forcing her back to the stronghold, she would have no choice.
That day, Xiao Jiuchen said that he loved her, but she couldn't tell whether it was true or not. She came to Yecheng this time and wanted to take the opportunity to have a good talk with Xiao Jiuchen.
Zhao Yuanyi persisted and said, "Luo Qing, if Village Master Xiao doesn't agree to let you stay in Yecheng, I will go and plead for you."
Luo Qingqing nodded perfunctorily and changed the subject naturally, changing the topic.
Everyone talked and laughed along the way and soon arrived at Yecheng.
After Luo Qingqing sent Mrs. Zhao and others back to the prefectural government office, she politely declined the Zhao family's invitation.
She asked people about the temporary camp of Jiuyou Mountain Village and others, and then said goodbye to the Zhao family.
Luo Qingqing led a small team out of the Zhao family's gate and was about to go to Jiuyou Mountain Village to identify where the others were stationed.
At this time, a group of horsemen came running from the street corner towards the prefectural government office.
The leader had an imposing bearing and a clear gaze.
He rode his horse against the wind, with an air of triumph and success surrounding him.
Luo Qingqing took a closer look and was stunned.
Xiao Jiuchen sat high on his horse's head and called out with a smile, "Little Luo Qing."
There was a strong sense of joy in his voice.
Luo Qingqing stood there and smiled slightly, "Brother Xiao, why are you here?"
Xiao Jiuchen reached out to her.
Luo Qingqing hesitated for a moment, then reached out and shook his hand.
Xiao Jiuchen exerted force with his arms, and Luo Qingqing was lifted onto the horse's head, sitting steadily in front of him.
Xiao Jiuchen smiled and said, "Master Zhao said you would escort Madam Zhao back, so I rushed over."
He slapped the horse's rump and the horse started running down the street.
Xiao Jiuchen turned around and told his confidants behind him: "Take these brothers back to the camp first."
Xiao Jiuchen took Luo Qingqing and headed straight out of the city.
The open fields outside the city already have the scent of autumn.
Xiao Jiuchen took Luo Qingqing off the horse and found a pot of wine from the saddle.
The two of them sat on the ground, watching the sunset gradually set in the west.
Xiao Jiuchen took a sip of wine and handed it to Luo Qingqing.
He said with emotion: "Xiao Luoqing, Lord Zhao and Lord Zhang have submitted a petition to the court, asking the court to grant me an official position. If all goes well, I guess I will be an official soon."
Luo Qingqing smiled and congratulated: "Brother Xiao, congratulations."
Seeing Luo Qingqing still holding the wine jar, Xiao Jiuchen asked curiously, "Why don't you drink?"
Luo Qingqing looked at a faint mark on the edge of the wine jar and felt unhappy in her heart.
Does this guy really think that everyone doesn't mind his saliva?
He had already drunk from the jar, so how could he let her drink?
She really couldn't bring herself to eat it.
Luo Qingqing handed the wine back to Xiao Jiuchen and said, "I've been riding for a long time and I feel a little dizzy."
Xiao Jiuchen took the wine jar and squinted at her, "Xiao Luoqing, do you think my thoughts are dirty, so you think I am dirty as a person? You are disgusted with me."
Luo Qingqing quickly shook her head, "No, it's normal to admire someone. But, Brother Xiao, if I were a woman, would you still admire me?"
The question that had been accumulating in her heart for a long time was finally asked. Luo Qingqing looked at Xiao Jiuchen nervously and apprehensively.
Xiao Jiuchen burst into laughter and said as he laughed, "Xiao Luoqing, you can't be a woman."
Ever since the Dragon Boat Festival, when Xiao Jiuchen rescued Luo Qingqing from the water, and after his verification, Xiao Jiuchen has never doubted her identity.
Luo Qing is the real man.
Luo Qingqing persistently asked: "What if I really am a woman?"
Xiao Jiuchen tilted his head back and took a sip of wine, which flowed down his knife-like jawline.
He looked into Luo Qingqing's eyes and said seriously, "Little Luo Qing, the person I like is you. You are not a woman. If you were a woman, I would not like you."
