Xiao Hechuan took a deep breath and hugged Chen Zhiyi tightly in his arms. He still felt uneasy. If it weren't for Chen Wu...
He would never see Zhiyi again.
I can never say sorry.
"Promise me, big brother, that no matter what danger you encounter in the future, don't act rashly, okay?"
Chen Zhiyi: "Yeah, I'll listen to my brother."
"No matter where you go in the future, tell me, okay? I will always be Zhiyi's big brother."
Shen Zhiyi continued to nod and hugged his eldest brother's waist.
[The eldest brother's embrace has the familiar smell of a male mother. Although Xie Zhuo's chest is also very solid and strong, they are different. The smell and feeling are different. The eldest brother is the eldest brother, and Xie Zhuo is Xie Zhuo. 】
Xiao Hechuan smiled when he heard that and rubbed his head against her neck.
Xiao Hechuan asked her, "When do you plan to return to Beijing? Didn't you want to cancel your engagement with the Xiao family? Did you change your mind? Do you want to be the lifelong fiancée of your elder and second brothers?"
It would be best to cancel the engagement. Now the five brothers are going crazy for Chen Zhiyi.
It would be best to break off the engagement and play fair.
[I forgot that I still have some things to deal with! 】
[And why is my national fortune not improving? Isn't the main storyline finished? 】
"Brother, let's go back to the capital tomorrow!"
Chen Zhiyi raised his head from Xiao Hechuan's arms.
Xiao Hechuan rubbed her head and said, "Okay."
The night wind was chilly and Chen Zhiyi sneezed. Xiao Hechuan untied his cloak, wrapped Chen Zhiyi around him again and held him in his arms.
In the darkness, Xie Zhuo's eyes, as sharp as a ferocious beast, looked at Chen Zhiyi and Xiao Hechuan.
Next to him, Wen Tingjun was also awake.
Miss Shen’s condition was not very good. These days, Miss Shen had not slept well and had not eaten much.
He cooked the meal himself, and Prince Li and the Crown Prince even specially invited the chef from the imperial kitchen from the capital, just to coax Chen Zhiyi to eat more.
Wen Tingjun saw that Xie Zhuo was not asleep like him.
Wen Tingjun was happy for Chen Zhiyi. Now that Chen Zhiyi's worries were resolved, she would also be happy. If she was happy, she could sleep well.
Early the next morning, Shen Zhiyi, the prince and others returned to the capital.
The weather is very good today, the sky is clear, the weather is sunny, and it is neither too cold nor too hot, which is very suitable for traveling.
That morning, Chen Zhiyi, nine men, and two little sisters returned to the palace in a mighty procession.
This time, the emperor was waiting in the Golden Palace again.
"Why haven't you come yet?"
"Will the Crown Prince and Xie Zhuo stand me up again?"
The emperor had received the prince's letter and knew that Shen Wu had died in order to save Shen Zhiyi.
Emperor Junlin was in a very heavy and sad mood, and rang the funeral bell to mourn Shen Wu.
In the past ten days or so, the emperor has not urged the prince to return to the palace.
As soon as the Emperor finished his complaints, the young eunuch reported it.
"Report! Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Princess, Prince Li is back in the palace!"
"Thank you, General Zhuo! Thank you, Deputy Marshal! Prime Minister! Military Advisor Xiao, the number one scholar has entered the palace! Miss Chen Zhiyi has returned to the palace! Master Wen, the third son of the Xiao family, the second son of the Xiao family..."
The young eunuch read out everyone's name and his mouth was dry.
After entering the Golden Palace, everyone paid homage to the emperor.
"Greetings to the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
Emperor Junlin: "Everyone, stand up!"
As for Chen Zhiyi, he hid outside the hall like a coward.
She didn't dare go in.
Then, Xie Zhuo, Xie Wanzheng, Xiao Fuguang and others reported the news of the war with the State of Yan.
"Emperor! Chu Xiyue colluded with the Yan people! She made a musket! She helped the Yan people kill their own people. This musket is the evidence!"
"I, Wan Zheng, King Li, Xiao Fuguang, and a hundred thousand soldiers are witnesses!" Xie Zhuo said in a sonorous and powerful voice and presented his musket.
Chen Zhi thought: [Now the heroine can’t turn things around, right? 】
Emperor Junlin was so excited that he stood up from the dragon throne.
This sound! !
It appeared again!
Emperor Jun Lin looked left and right, at the sky, at the ground, outside, and around him, but he didn't see Chen Zhiyi.
I don’t know where that weird woman is hiding. I can never see her.
However, Emperor Junlin discovered it.
This woman is indeed quite capable.
She said last time that Xie Wanzheng came back to the palace to ask me for a marriage, and that’s right.
She was also right when she said that Xie Zhuo almost lost the battle.
If Chen Zhiyi and Xie Wanzheng had not gone to Licheng in time to pass on the correct information, this time, the 100,000-strong army would have been completely wiped out!
Moreover, I will also lose three great generals: Xie Zhuo, Xiao Fuguang, and Xie Wanzheng!
I almost lost my kingdom!
Then, Chu Xiyue and Yan State commander Yan Xun were carried up by the guards.
One of them was a spy and the other was a prisoner of war, and neither of them had a good ending. I have suffered a lot in the past half month.
The first time Chen Zhiyi saw Chu Xiyue, he couldn't believe it.
[Is this the heroine?] This is actually the heroine? If it weren’t for the tattered black skirt that Chu Xiyue was wearing, I wouldn’t have recognized that this was Chu Xiyue! 】
Chu Xiyue broke a leg, broke an arm, and lost an eye.
Chu Xiyue's body was covered with wounds from explosions and she had been severely tortured. Those wounds could not heal. Her body was covered with tattered and bumpy flesh. Her clothes had turned into rags and could barely cover her body.
When Chu Xiyue was carried in by the guards, her only remaining eye suddenly saw a familiar figure.
"Chen Zhiyi??? Chen Zhiyi!!"
Chu Xiyue screamed, her eyes were vicious and her face was distorted.
