Chapter 835 Leaving Beijing
Chu Yuexi disappeared.
Not only was he missing, more than a hundred people from the Silver Lin Guards who went in with him were also missing.
There was also Doctor Bai, who was nowhere to be seen.
As for the 2,000 Chu soldiers who were waiting outside after the order, seeing that more than 100 people from Chu Yuexi had gone in for several days without sending any information, Vice General Fang became worried and sent 20 of his most capable soldiers to look for him. .
Several days passed, and there was no news about the twenty soldiers who entered.
Only then did Deputy General Fang realize the strangeness and danger. He did not dare to send anyone in anymore. He hurriedly sent a letter to Chu Jingqi Feige.
After Chu Jingqi got the letter, she went to the palace to discuss the matter with the emperor.
When he came back, the moon was already over the treetops.
Xia Zihan was pretentious and didn't even eat dinner at night. When Chu Jingqi came back, he saw that the food on the table was still steaming and didn't move at all. He sighed and pulled her to sit down at the table. He filled a bowl of soup and fed it to her.
"Don't worry, master and Chu Yuexi will be fine," he said.
Xia Zihan's heart tightened, and he frowned and said, "Why don't you worry? More than a hundred years ago, the Miao people coveted Dasheng. The ancestors of the Ao family sent troops to encircle and suppress them. More than 500 people entered, and they disappeared overnight. There is no trace of him, my brother is only over a hundred people, I’m afraid..."
She didn't say the following words, but the result...
She was afraid that her grandmother had finally adopted an heir, but she couldn't let anything happen. What if something happened, what would happen to Qinghui and the child?
What about her grandmother?
Her grandmother couldn't take any more stimulation.
"Let's hide this from Qinghui and my grandmother first, tell the emperor, and even the people in the Second Prince's Palace." Xia Zihan warned worriedly.
She was worried that after Qinghui found out, she would be impulsive and go find Chu Yuexi herself.
She was even more worried that her grandmother would be irritated when she found out, and then... the Chu family would be in chaos.
Chu Jingqi took a mouthful of soup and picked out one of her favorite crystal dumplings for her to eat. He said, "Ao Tianchen already knows, but he deliberately keeps it from outsiders because he is worried that it will cause panic among the people, and he is also worried about Qinghui. Will do something impulsively ”
"That's good. Have you guys discussed how to save Chu Yuexi?" Xia Zihan is most concerned about this. "If you go, I will go too. Don't refuse yet. My master and Chu Yuexi both Missing, now, I am the only one who knows something about Gu insects. If you take the risk to find Chu Yuexi, I don’t worry. Even if you don’t take me, I will secretly follow you alone. ”
Chu Jingqi put down the bowl and spoon, hugged her, sat on his lap, and kissed her on her fair and slender neck, "Don't worry about me. If you go, I will worry too. I will be distracted. Ayu, be obedient." , you just stay at home and take good care of our son, I promise, nothing will happen to me.”
"No." Instead of waiting anxiously at home, it would be better to fight side by side with him. If we die, they will die together.
"I'm not a delicate girl, and my martial arts skills are no worse than those of the secret guards around you. Aqi, just take me there. I won't hold you back."
"Silly girl, who is worried that you will be a hindrance?" Chu Jingqi rubbed her hair, tied her hair into a bun, and messed it up, "I just don't want you to take risks with me, what if... son? Do it?”
"With father here, mother here, and the second and third children here, they will grow up safely." Xia Zihan said with red eyes.
She drank half of a bowl of soup and couldn't eat it anymore. Chu Jingqi ordered the maids to clear the table, then hugged her daughter-in-law and leaned on the big pillow on the bed to talk.
"The emperor's intention is not to publicize this matter first, and let Ao Tianchen and I secretly find the person first. If we don't find the person, something must have happened to that person. The emperor will send another 100,000 elite troops to bombard the Miao territory. It would be better if the person is found and the person is fine, but this filthy bunch in Miaojiang must be destroyed, otherwise, Dasheng will still be persecuted by them in a few years. "
The emperor said that as big as Da Sheng, he could not defeat a small Miao territory.
Dasheng's hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers could flatten a small area in Miao territory even if they trampled on them. He didn't believe that the Miao people were so capable that they could eat up all of Dasheng's hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers. .
The Miao people can harm them unexpectedly only by relying on the poisonous insects and witchcraft they are familiar with. As long as we are not afraid of their poisonous insects and witchcraft, we will definitely be able to wipe out all the Miao people.
If possible, the emperor planned to go there in person. The emperor was very interested in annihilating the Miao people.
More than a hundred years ago, his ancestors wiped out all the Miao people, and the remaining scattered people were driven into the mountains and forests, and they dared not come out.
More than a hundred years later, the Miao people became deceitful again. The emperor also wanted to learn from his ancestors and beat the Miao people so boldly that they dared not come out. However, Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen tried their best to stop them. .
"The matter is urgent. We will set off early tomorrow morning." Chu Jingqi said.
"Then I'll tell the maid to pack things." Xia Zihan stood up from his arms, put on her shoes and got off the kang, "I also want to tell my parents, let's go together."
And the children...
Thinking of the child, Xia Zihan felt reluctant to let go, and her heart ached with depression.
The child is only more than four months old, which is when he can understand what adults are saying, but she...can't stay with the child and watch them grow up.
Compared with being separated from her children and letting Chu Jingqi take risks alone, she would choose the latter without hesitation. As for the children, she believed that Zhuo would take good care of them and would not treat them badly.
Xia Zihan was determined to go with Chu Jingqi. Chu Jingqi tried to coax her for a long time, but he still couldn't get rid of her idea.
Seeing her holding a small bun in one hand and crying silently, Chu Jingqi reached out distressedly and took her daughter-in-law and son into her arms.
"Since you can't let go of your son, why don't you go?" He coaxed softly.
Xia Zihan shook his head, sniffed, and said firmly, "No, my son will stay at home, and my mother will take good care of him. But if I let you take risks alone, I will be too worried at home to eat, sleep, and be out of mood." To take care of your son, instead of taking care of both ends, it is better to leave your son to your mother and I will accompany you to Miao territory.”
Seeing her unwavering attitude, Chu Jingqi lamented a little, hugged the child, and the couple went to say goodbye to Chu Xuanyu and Zhuo.
"We will leave tomorrow morning and we will not come here. The child... I will ask my mother to take better care of her from now on." Xia Zihan's eyes were red. She looked at her little son who was grabbing her by the collar of his clothes. She was extremely reluctant to let go. Tears were shed.
Mrs. Zhuo couldn't bear to see this scene, and her eyes were wet. She took the child from Xia Zihan and said with a tight throat, "Don't worry, I will take good care of my two grandsons. You don't have to worry about the family affairs. It’s all about me and your dad.”
