Chapter 295 Qi Shuyan's Sweetheart
Everyone in the Qi family knew that the second branch was arranged to go to Tianshan County.
Because this matter was also initiated by Qi Yanzhou.
But they didn't know that Qi Shuyan was behind it.
Especially the fact that Tianshan County had been taken.
Qi Yanzhou looked at Qi Shuyan who had done a lot of things in secret, and said with a smile: "Big brother is worthy of being the big brother."
"Although I gave up martial arts and turned to literature, I am still a member of the Qi family."
After Qi Shuyan finished speaking, he asked Qi Yanzhou directly.
"Is the rumor that you want to change the dynasty true or false?"
"False, Big Brother should be very clear about my abilities. I have no problem fighting in battles, but I don't have the ability to manage the court."
"I know your abilities very well, but you don't seem to know your own abilities. If you can manage Southern Xinjiang in an orderly manner in a short period of time, you have the ability to manage the world. It depends on whether you want to do it or not."
Qi Yanzhou clenched his hands on the table into fists, his eyes dark and unclear.
"Brother, do you think the Qi family should seize the world?"
Qi Shuyan picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip.
He put down the teacup and said with a smile, "It's not about should or shouldn't be, it's about wanting to or not wanting to."
Qi Yanzhou answered affirmatively: "I don't want to, but if you want, I can help you."
This answer was within Qi Shuyan's expectations.
If Qi Yanzhou wanted to overthrow the tyranny and ascend the throne himself, his attitude towards the emperor would not be like it is now.
Qi Shuyan has no interest in power either.
Otherwise, with his intelligence, he is fully capable of staying in the capital and becoming a high-ranking official.
Instead of running to a remote and cold place to become a small official.
"I don't want to either, but Beichen will have to establish a new emperor sooner or later. What are your plans for the future?"
Qi Yanzhou knew that Qi Shuyan was asking about the new emperor.
"The Emperor Star has appeared, and Huaixuan and the Imperial Astronomical Observatory are on their way to find it. If they find it, I will do my best to assist him in ascending the throne. After the success, I will make Tianshan County a fiefdom and retire after my success."
After telling him his plan, he asked Qi Shuyan.
"Brother, what do you think?"
Qi Shuyan hadn't thought it through yet, "We'll talk about the future later."
He looked at Ye Chutang and said apologetically, "Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry that I couldn't attend your wedding banquet with A Zhou."
Ye Chutang raised the corner of his lips, "Don't feel sorry, brother. When we get to Tianshan County, Azhou will hold another one."
Qi Shuyan thought that their wedding was forced by the emperor.
After the ceremony, there was a frame-up and house confiscation incident, which made the wedding incomplete.
It is indeed necessary to hold another one, otherwise it would be too unfair to Ye Chutang.
He smiled and said, "I'll help you when the time comes."
After that, he asked about Ayi Na's situation.
"Sister-in-law, Ayi Na's soul has returned to her place. She should be alright, right?"
Ye Chutang shook his head. "I don't understand witchcraft. I can only say that her body is fine now. But whether she can recover or not, we have to wait until she wakes up to tell."
After saying that, she stretched out her hand.
"Brother, you've been in the dungeon for too long, your body is damaged. Let me check your pulse."
Qi Shuyan's face was pale and his spirit was very bad. He was trying hard to hold on.
He knew that Ye Chutang was a good doctor, so he immediately stretched out his hand in front of her, palm facing up.
After feeling his pulse, Ye Chutang said, "It's not a big problem. Just take some medicine and rest for a few more days."
She wrote a prescription and the instructions for taking it and handed it to Qi Yanzhou.
"Azhou, go to the pharmacy and get five prescriptions."
Dalizhou is not big, and the shops are relatively concentrated, only one street away from the post station.
Not long after Qi Yanzhou left with the prescription, he came back with the medicine.
He took the medicine to the kitchen and gave it to Aunt Xu.
When he returned to the lobby, he asked Ye Chutang, "Atang, how many days will we stay in Dalizhou?"
If you stay for a long time, you have to go to the inn and book a few rooms.
Ye Chutang thought for a moment and said, "Let's decide after Ayi Na wakes up."
***
Before lunch, Ye Chutang went to see how Ayina was doing.
The confusion in her eyes had faded a lot, but her mind was still confused and her memory was distorted.
This is the sequelae of soul separation syndrome.
It is unclear whether it can be recovered and how long it will take.
But Aina is no longer in serious condition.
Amyra is still not awake.
After lunch, Ye Chutang said, "Let's rest for another night and set off tomorrow morning."
Dali Prefecture is in chaos now, and the government is busy dealing with the aftermath of Suolang and has no time to take care of the exile team.
Qi Yanzhou nodded.
"I'll go to the inn and get a few rooms so that Big Brother and Ayi Na can have a good rest."
Old Madam Qi stopped Qi Yanzhou who was leaving.
"Zhou'er, please open an extra room so that Tang'er can have a good rest."
It's too crowded for a family to live in one room.
"Okay, I'll open another one."
Qi Yanzhou booked five upper rooms in the inn closest to the post station.
Qi Shuyan had one room, Amira and Aina had one room, Ye Chutang had one room, and the two elders of the Qi family had one room.
The remaining room was given to the National Protection Army to protect them in case of any accidents.
After making all the arrangements, Ye Chutang took his bag and went to the inn for a nap.
When I woke up, the sun was setting.
Qi Yanzhou sat at the round table in the room, reading the news from the capital.
Hearing the noise, he immediately looked towards the bed.
Seeing Ye Chutang wake up, he said with concern: "Atang, you slept for a long time today, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Except for being sleepy in the early stages of pregnancy, Ye Chutang usually takes a lunch break of at least fifteen minutes and at most half an hour.
And today I slept for an hour and a half.
Ye Chutang used his earth-related abilities too much and felt a little tired, so he slept for a long time.
She got up from the bed, stretched and said, "I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well in prison."
Qi Yanzhou poured Ye Chutang a cup of warm water.
"I'm glad you're alright. Do you want to check out the news from the capital?"
Ye Chutang sat down next to Qi Yanzhou and said, "Tell me the important things."
After that, she picked up her teacup and listened to the gossip with interest.
Qi Yanzhou said three things.
First.
After the emperor stopped being obsessed with cultivating immortals, he focused on seizing power from Eunuch Hede.
Originally, the emperor had no chance of winning.
But since the last poisoning, Eunuch De not only had his face disfigured, but his health has also been poor and he has been bedridden.
As a result, the emperor actually took back some power from him.
second.
Ye Anling is pregnant with the baby, Zen Master Shancun.
However, the emperor thought the child was his, so he issued an imperial decree to allow Ye Anling and Eunuch De to divorce.
Now Ye Anling is the emperor's most beloved concubine.
third.
The Song family was targeted by the emperor because Song Jingning spread remarks favorable to the Qi family everywhere.
Fortunately, the Song family's position in the literary world is unshakable and has not been affected.
Instead, it was the Song family's disciples in the court who forced the emperor to stop.
After Qi Yanzhou finished speaking, he asked Ye Chutang.
"Ye Anling, do you want to deal with it?"
If the emperor knew that she was pregnant with the child of the Taoist priest Shancun, he would kill her to pieces.
Ye Chutang shook his head.
"Keep her for now. She is the emperor's humiliation to Eunuch De. She is more useful alive."
After that, she asked, "Brother has already subdued the garrisons of all the states and counties in the North. Does he need to raise troops?"
There was a severe drought this year and no grain was harvested.
The treasury was also empty.
The military pay and food distributed by the emperor to various places will definitely be greatly reduced.
Whether it was Qi Shuyan or Qi Yanzhou, they had to take care of the garrisons in the prefectures and counties they had conquered.
Otherwise, the morale of the troops will be lost and all our efforts these days will be in vain.
Qi Yanzhou reached out to help Ye Chutang tidy up her messy hair.
"My brother and I have already made preparations for raising troops, so you don't have to worry."
"Is there enough silver? Do you want me to ask the 'ghost thief' to return the Qi family's property that he took away before?"
"No need, the property of Prince Chen's Mansion is only a part of the Qi family."
Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows, "A cunning rabbit has three burrows."
Qi Yanzhou smiled and scratched her nose.
“It’s just a way to survive.”
After talking about the capital, Ye Chutang asked, "What should we do next? Should we follow the plan or hurry up?"
Before, they strictly followed the exile route for two main reasons.
First, he did not want to openly challenge the emperor's authority and give others a chance to criticize him.
The second is to understand the situation in various places and subdue the garrisons.
Today, except for Uru County, the garrisons of other prefectures and counties in the northwest region have been conquered by the two brothers of the Qi family.
There is no need to follow the exile route.
Qi Yanzhou thought so too.
"Once we pass Wulu County, we will find the fastest route to Tianshan County."
If nothing goes wrong, we will definitely arrive before the New Year.
"Okay, that's decided."
Ye Chutang finished speaking and stood up, "I'll go see Ayi Na and Amyra."
The two little girls lived in the same room, right next to her.
She knocked on the door.
A weak voice came, "Come in."
Ye Chutang recognized it as Amira's voice.
She pushed the door open.
Ayi Na was not in the room. Amira leaned against the head of the bed and looked towards the door with a pale face.
Seeing that it was Ye Chutang, she wanted to stand up and salute, but she didn't have the strength.
"Don't move. You are weak and need to rest well."
Ye Chutang came to the bedside and took Amyra's pulse.
"The pulse is much stronger than before."
After that, she took out a brown medicine bottle from her waist and handed it to Amyra.
The bottle contains powdered western medicine that can treat pulmonary bullae.
"This is medicine that can relieve your condition. If you feel difficulty breathing, pour out some and drink it with hot water."
Amira didn't reach out to take it, and asked, "Mrs. Qi, how much silver is this medicine?"
"No need for silver, this is your reward for saving Ayi Na."
Ye Chutang stuffed the medicine bottle into Amira's hand.
"This medicine can only alleviate your condition, but it can't cure it. If you take good care of your body, you may live another ten years. If you don't take care of your body, you may die at any time."
After saying that, she pointed to the medicine bottle.
"The medicine in the bottle is enough for fifty doses. Due to its special ingredients, it will be gone once it's used up."
The medicine in the bottle is made of fifty Western medicine grains ground into powder.
An average of five times a year over ten years is definitely enough for Amira.
"Thank you, Madam Qi, for saving my life!"
She was still too weak to get out of bed, so she could only bow.
"This is a deal between us. No need to thank me. Just take a rest. I will extend your room for five days. After that, you can choose what to do next."
Amy anxiously grabbed Ye Chutang who was about to leave.
"Wait a moment."
"What else do you want? If you want to go to Tianshan County with me, I'm sorry, I refuse."
"No, I just want to repay Madam Qi and bless your child."
Blessing is also witchcraft, but it is positive.
Wizards are often invited by dignitaries to bless their unborn children.
Ye Chutang knew nothing about witchcraft and did not trust strangers.
"No, thank you."
But Amira had already completed the blessing ceremony.
She didn't know where she got the strength from, but she suddenly stood up and put her palm on Ye Chutang's forehead.
When Amira approached, Ye Chutang wanted to slap her away.
But after thinking about her merit points, she forced herself to hold back.
When Amyra's palm touched her forehead, a warm force gathered from the top of her head to her lower abdomen.
Then it slowly melts and wraps the entire uterus.
The uncomfortable feeling of the embryo squeezing the internal organs disappears.
Even the heaviness and bloating sensation caused by the advanced stage of pregnancy was gone.
It's as if... I'm not pregnant.
This feeling was very comfortable, but also made her feel a little uncomfortable.
It is a terrifying thing not being able to directly feel the baby in your belly!
When Amyra let go, her body fell down helplessly.
Ye Chutang quickly grabbed her and put her back on the bed.
"What have you done to my children? Why can't I sense their presence?"
Amira looked at Ye Chutang, who looked alert, and gave a weak smile.
"Madam Qi, don't worry. Once the child has absorbed the blessed spiritual power, you will be able to feel them again. You will no longer suffer from the pain of pregnancy, and you will have a smooth birth in the future."
After saying this, she fainted from exhaustion.
Ye Chutang looked at Amira, who looked like a fragile porcelain doll, and sighed.
"Silly girl."
She fed Amira a pill to nourish her blood and qi, covered her with a blanket, and left.
When she returned to her room, she could already feel her child's presence again.
But the hardship of pregnancy is really gone.
Qi Yanzhou saw Ye Chutang's brisk steps and seemed to be in a good mood, so he asked, "Why are you so happy?"
Ye Chutang came to Qi Yanzhou, grabbed his hand and placed it on her bulging belly.
“Do you feel it?”
Qi Yanzhou didn't feel the baby's movement and looked puzzled.
"Feel what?"
“Amira blessed the child with witchcraft, which not only ensured a safe birth but also saved me from the pain of pregnancy.
I can now feel the presence of my child, but without the burden of a pregnant belly, which allows me to speed up my journey. ”
After hearing this, Qi Yanzhou was happy for Ye Chutang, but also a little worried.
"Can Amyra be trusted?"
After all, Ye Chutang killed her father!
If she did anything with witchcraft, they wouldn't find out.
Ye Chutang could understand Qi Yanzhou's concerns.
If she hadn't obtained Amira's merit points, she wouldn't have believed in the so-called blessing.
"It's trustworthy. I'm always very accurate in judging people. If you're worried, you can ask my eldest brother. He has a deeper understanding of the witch clan."
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Qi Shuyan knocked on the open door.
"Azhou, lend me your Saker Falcon. I'll pass on a message."
Qi Yanzhou called out, "Brother, come in and talk."
When Qi Shuyan entered the room, he asked, "What kind of message needs to be delivered by Haidongqing?"
The news that Aina is safe and sound is not extremely urgent, so a simple message will be enough.
After all, Dali Prefecture is not too far from Tacheng, and if you ride at full speed, it will only take one day.
Qi Shuyan sat down at the table and said calmly, "I'm reporting to your future sister-in-law that she's safe."
