After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 171 Ning Youbei's Comfort
He Dabao, Wu Dagang, and Wang Liangcong all followed Qu Chu for a long time.

Like He Dabao, when he was 14 years old, he was rescued by Qu Chu, who had just entered the barracks, and has been with Qu Chu since then, only obeying her orders.

Like Wang Liangcong, since Qu Chu entered the barracks, he has observed her silently, and then recommended himself to her side to assist her and dedicate his loyalty to her;

Like Wu Dagang, after Qu Chu entered the barracks, he had several fights with her, and every time he was beaten down by Qu Chu, he followed her.

Later, because Qu Chu had saved his life twice on the battlefield, he was even more devoted to Qu Chu...

How could these people, with so many years of affection, be like ordinary soldiers...

……

Qu Chu sat there until Xu time.

……

Qu Bingyu has been very busy recently, besides taking care of the big and small affairs of the General's Mansion, she also has to prepare her own dowry.

It's not that Qu Chu doesn't prepare for her, but that Qu Chu is really not good at these.

Some time ago, Qu Chu was bored and followed Qu Bingyu to help her prepare the dowry, but after following for two days, Qu Chu consciously didn't care.

Not only was she not interested, she couldn't be of much help.

……

Before Qu Bingyu was about to have dinner, she suddenly thought of Qu Chulai.

She asked the maid beside her, "Has Ah Chu left? She didn't say hello to me today."

Usually at this time, Qu Chu returned to the Chu Palace.But before she left, she would definitely say hello to Qu Bingyu.

The maid replied: "I don't know, I haven't heard that the general will stay for dinner."

Qu Bingyu was still worried.

"I'd better go to the front yard to have a look."

It was already dark, and candles were lit everywhere in the General's Mansion.

Qu Bingyu walked to the front yard.

From a distance, Qu Chu's study was pitch black.

Qu Bingyu didn't stop there, but walked to the door of Qu Chu's study.

"Ah Chu, are you in there?"

Qu Bingyu asked several times, but there was no movement in the study.

Just when Qu Bingyu thought that Qu Chu had already left, Qu Chu's hoarse voice came from the study: "I'm here".

Ah Chu is still there?

"Why aren't the lights on?"

Qu Bingyu pushed the door open and went in, and lit the lamp in the study.

After seeing the bright light, Qu Bingyu was startled.

"Achu, what's the matter with you?"

Qu Chu's eyes were red, the kind of bloodshot red caused by trying to suppress emotions, and the temperature of the whole body was also several degrees lower.

"nothing".

Qu Chu's voice was hoarse and dark.

Qu Bingyu grew up with Qu Chu, how could she not know that something happened.

But Qu Chu didn't say that there was naturally her reason.

Qu Bingyu didn't say much, and sat down beside Qu Chu silently, grabbing her arm as she did when she was a child.

This was the second time Qu Bingyu saw Qu Chu suppressing his emotions like this.

The first time was when Qu Chu knew her identity.

Twelve years ago, Qu Quan, an old man in Tianshu, knew that his life was approaching, so he called Qu Chu and Qu Bingyu to him, told Qu Chu her life experience, and then entrusted Qu Bingyu to her.

That night, Qu Chu also stayed silently in the dark like now, without speaking or moving.

Qu Bingyu, who was only 13 years old at the time, also sat quietly with Qu Chu, holding her arm.

……

When Ning Youbei walked into the study, what he saw was Qu Chu and Qu Bingyu sitting quietly.

What's the matter?
Ning Youbei didn't wait for Qu Chu to come back in Chu Palace, so he came to the General's Mansion to look for her. He didn't expect to see such a situation.

Ning Youbei walked up to Qu Chu, "Ah Chu".

Qu Chu looked up at Ning Youbei.

Looking at Qu Chu's scarlet eyes, Ning Youbei became anxious all of a sudden, and held Qu Chu's face with both hands.

"Achu, what's the matter?"

Qu Chu's distracted gaze gradually gained focus, and she fixedly looked at Ning Youbei.

Ning Youbei called "Achu, Achu" a few more times.

Qu Chu's heart slowly calmed down, she turned her head to the side, and looked at the letter on the table.

Ning Youbei let go of Qu Chu's face, and hurriedly went to get the letter on the table.

After reading it, Ning Youbei knew why Qu Chu was sad.

He put the letter on the table, leaned Qu Chu's head on his chest, and patted Qu Chu gently with one hand.

Qu Bingyu quietly left the study.

At this time, she believed that Ah Chu needed King Chu's company even more.

Qu Bingyu felt a little sad.

It's not that Qu Chu and her are separated, but that Ah Chu is so strong that his company can't comfort her.

……

In the study

Qu Chu rested his head on Ning Youbei's chest, and muttered to himself:

"I was thinking a few days ago that I should write to General Fan and ask him to clean up Wu Dang, so that Wu Dang's temper would not get worse and he would not accept discipline. I didn't expect it to be unnecessary."

Ning Youbei gently stroked Qu Chu's shoulder.

"If General Wu knew how sad you are now, he would definitely show it off everywhere. Said the general treated him very well."

"Yes," Qu Chu murmured, "If he knew how sad I was, he would definitely be even more arrogant."

"So, even if you are sad, you can't let him know, lest he be proud."

Ning Youbei spoke endlessly along Qu Chu's lines, but strangely calmed Qu Chu's mood.

Qu Chu's thoughts gradually came back.

"Well, you can't get used to him. I just wonder if he thought of me when he left?"

"You are his savior, and he has no wife, child, or other relatives, so he doesn't want you or anyone else."

The two of them talked about each other like this, but Ning Youbei's hand kept stroking Qu Chu gently.

And Qu Chu never said that Wu Dagang should not be prevented from going to the Nanyi border, because that is the mission of the soldiers.

……

Qu Chu withdrew his head from Ning Youbei's chest.

"Let's go back."

This was the first time Qu Chu said the word "go back" when she returned to Chu Palace. She didn't realize it, but Ning Youbei recognized it.

He said softly, "Okay, let's go back."

Qu Chu stood up, and Ning Youbei held her hand.

Qu Chu did not refuse.

The two walked out of the study holding hands like this...

……

Seeing the backs of the two leaving hand in hand, Qu Bingyu felt happy for Qu Chu.

Ah Chu finally found someone she could trust and rely on.

Qu Bingyu and Qu Chu grew up together, and the relationship between the two is very good, but Qu Bingyu knows very well in her heart that as Qu Chu becomes stronger, her relationship with Qu Chu is no longer at the same level.

Qu Chu regards Qu Bingyu as someone who needs her protection. In fact, Qu Bingyu is indeed living under Qu Chu's protection.

But it wasn't Chu Chu's fault.

Although Qu Bingyu was good at medicine, she didn't make use of her strengths, and didn't strive for any value for herself.

Instead, he has been living under Qu Chu's wings.

But Qu Chu was different.

She does not give in, does not admit defeat, and uses her super fighting power, firm will and learned skills to win a piece of sky for her.

The unequal status of the two destined Qu Bingyu not to be Qu Chu's reliance.

Now, Qu Chu can finally let go of his defenses in front of the King of Chu, trust him and rely on him, which is very good.
