Chapter 1239
"I'll ask Chu Lin to send someone to your other courtyard to teach these people the rules and martial arts." Xia Zihan thought for a while and then said.
Dou Da just nodded repeatedly, "Then I'm welcome."
"Follow me, you don't have to be polite."
In the afternoon, there were indeed two more people in Dou Da's courtyard, a man and a woman. They were both sent by Chu Lin to train Dou Da as guards.
After a few guards moved into the other courtyard, the family felt more human, and Dou was no longer as scared as he had been when he was alone in the Liu family's empty room.
And just after Dou Da's matter came to an end, something happened in the Northwest.
Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen, two young generals who were famous in the Great Sheng Kingdom, besieged the Zhao family and actually lost.
After receiving the news, the emperor was very angry and sent two more generals with 50,000 troops to the northwest.
When the Dragon Boat Festival came, the war in the northwest became more and more intense. Two of the five cities robbed by the Zhao family were recaptured by Chu Jingqi, but there were three remaining. The two led thousands of troops, but there was still no chance. Break through.
Mrs. Zhuo was worried that her son, who was fighting in the northwest, had not eaten in the past few days. Tonight, he only drank half a bowl of wonton noodles, and Chu Xuanyu ate it while watching.
In just a few days, Zhuo lost a lot of weight.
In the past, Zhuo was not worried when Chu Jingqi went to fight, but this time it was different. This time, Chu Jingqi attacked people from the Zhao family.
Not long ago, Chu Jingqi was seriously injured by a dead soldier of the Zhao family, and almost went to see the Lord of Hell. So, on the surface, although Zhuo advised Xia Zihan not to worry, in fact, she was also worried.
In the past few days, the news of the defeat came, and Mrs. Zhuo became even more worried. Chu Xuanyu tried to persuade her, but she didn't listen to a word.
It was Princess Qinghui who persuaded Mrs. Zhuo to look better.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, on June 6, the hottest time in summer, another battle report came from the northwest.
This time, it was good news. Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen outflanked the county where the Zhao family was located. When all the Zhao family members fell into a strange disease and the officers and soldiers had no one to command, Chu Jingqi led thousands of people to do it in one fell swoop. After entering the city, the Zhao family's people were forced to retreat again, and Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen finally recaptured the third city that was taken away by the Zhao family's people.
After the emperor received the good news, he was in a very happy mood. He even ran to the palace, hugged Chu Cong's belly, and talked to the daughter inside, which made Chu Cong roll his eyes at him several times.
However, before the emperor could be happy for long, news came from the south that Le Ying had escaped.
The letter was written by Chu Yuexi himself, and it was sent by a flying pigeon, so there were only a few words and no details.
But after a few words, the emperor was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Seeing that his expression was wrong, Chu Cang hurriedly pushed out his big belly, sat down next to him, and said, "Is there something else? Your Majesty, tell me, maybe I can give you to the Emperor." Think of a way?”
Not wanting to see the emperor's sad face, Chu Cong wanted to share something with the emperor, so he didn't think about women not being able to interfere in government affairs. But Chu Cong felt that the emperor was like the highest elder in a big family. Now, something happened at home. As his wife, she should contribute to the family. This was a matter of course. ”
The emperor carefully hugged his wife and told her, "Le Ying escaped."
Who is Le Ying? Chu Cong had already learned her identity from Xia Zihan, and he also guessed that she was the one who gave the emperor his head drop. Therefore, Chu Cong resented Le Ying very much, and even thought of the emperor eating it. She had gone through two months of suffering, and she wished she could catch her personally and then kill her.
Who would have known that Chu Yuexi went to catch Le Ying, but missed her, and she didn’t know when Le Ying left.
He couldn't have gotten the news in advance that someone was going to arrest her and left on purpose, right?
When Chu Zong thought about this, he became worried.
She was worried that Chu Yuexi and the others would not be able to catch Le Ying. In the future, wouldn't Le Ying be able to bow down to the emperor at any time if she doesn't let him go?
"Your Majesty, don't worry, she can escape Monk, but she can't escape Miao. One day, she will be caught." Chu Yuexi advised.
The emperor hummed, "I'm not in a hurry."
He was just worried that there was such a person who knew how to bow his head in the dark, cursing him, and he felt it was really scary.
The emperor sent a letter to Chu Yuexi, asking him to continue looking for someone. If he didn't find someone, he should not come back for the time being.
When Chu Yuexi received this letter, she had just left Wuzhi Peak.
After receiving the emperor's secret order, Chu Yuexi divided his troops into five groups and hunted Le Ying everywhere. He even drew a portrait of Le Ying and posted it on the gates of the government offices in various counties. He also offered rewards to anyone who could report Le Ying or catch Le Ying. The imperial court rewarded him with two thousand taels of silver.
As soon as this notice was posted, the entire southern city was boiling.
You know, two thousand taels of silver is enough for a family to eat and drink for a lifetime, and a reward is only two thousand taels of silver. If they are really lucky and meet Le Ying, then they will not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.
So, for a while, Le Ying became a rat that everyone shouted at. She had to wear a mask wherever she went. Otherwise, if she was recognized, she would be hunted down.
Not long after, Chu Yuexi received news that Le Ying had appeared in the southwest, but she was too cunning and the people who discovered her did not catch her and let her escape.
When Chu Yuexi got the news, she even took people to the city mentioned by the messenger at night. As a result, after going there, she searched everywhere but couldn't find it. Le Ying had already escaped.
Half a month later, he received news again, saying that Le Ying appeared on the way to the Northwest and was injured by someone who met her. She was said to have injured her arm, but she was allowed to escape again.
"Boss, this girl's route is to the Northwest. There is a war in the Northwest right now." A boy next to Chu Yuexi said worriedly.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place. Currently, there is a war in the Great Northwest. There is chaos and dust flying all over the sky. Maybe at some point, I will be stabbed and die in the Great Northwest. Therefore, there is a place where the entire Great Northwest is. The most chaotic place in Shengguo is also the easiest place to hide. It’s a good place. Le Ying would choose to go there because she knew that the people there were busy fleeing, so who would help us arrest people? Moreover, most of the people there had fled, and the ten rooms were empty. She just went there casually. Wherever we go, it will be difficult for us to find people," Chu Yuexi analyzed.
If he was forced to have no other choice, he would probably choose to go to the Northwest. Only in the Northwest was there a place for survival. In other places, she would not be able to stand out at all. If she did, she would be discovered. .
