Chapter 464: Defending Jizhou

Chen Shulan screamed in surprise and stared at Xie Changyuan's waist, her face turning pale.

Xie Changyuan was wearing a sky-blue robe. At this time, there was a blood stain between the waist and abdomen, and there was a tear in the fabric, as if blood seeped out from inside after being injured.

Xie Changyuan followed her gaze and glanced down, "It's a small wound. It doesn't hurt."

Chen Shulan carefully reached out her hand and touched it.

As soon as Xie Changyuan's eyes moved, he pretended to shrink back a little and snorted.

Chen Shulan's fingertips trembled nervously, and she quickly dragged her weak body out of bed to support Xie Changyuan, and shouted outside: "Mommy, get the medicine quickly, and ask the master from the temple to come over and take a look, hurry up -"

Xie Changyuan saw that she was so shocked that he became a little playful. He leaned half of his body on Chen Shulan and pretended to lament: "I'm really fine. I just need to take care of her and I'll be fine."

Unexpectedly, the blood stains on the clothes were really shocking, and Xie Changyuan's voice was really weak, but it made Chen Shulan think that he was seriously injured and might be dying.

The tears that had finally been stopped started flowing out of control again.

She hated herself for being incompetent and unable to help at critical moments, or dragging others down, so she could only wait for others to come to save her, and she had no ability at all.

I hate myself even more for being so stupid and cowardly.

He was so frightened that he couldn't think at all. He didn't even notice that Xie Changyuan was injured, and even let him carry him down the mountain.

The wound must have been more serious because of this...

In the past, Chen Qingci died in front of her just to save herself. Now that her husband was so seriously injured because of her, why did she always bring danger to the people around her.

Xie Changyuan leaned against her body, smelling the faint body fragrance of her body, and was in a happy mood.

But suddenly she saw her hands gently raised, wanting to touch her wounds but not daring to touch them. Tears flowed all over her face, dripping down her chin to the ground as if they were free.

Xie Changyuan's heart suddenly tightened, knowing that he had made a big joke.

He quickly hugged Chen Shulan and comforted her in a gentle voice: "Good Ningning, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm really fine. The wound only scratched the flesh a little, and the rest was stained with the blood of others along the way."

Chen Shulan looked up at him dully, her vision blurred by tears, and she could only barely see the smile on Xie Changyuan's face.

Xie Changyuan took her hand and pressed it on his wound, and rubbed it hard a few times: "It's really okay. I see how cute you are, and I am teasing you."

Chen Shulan blinked, as if she didn't understand what Xie Changyuan said.

Xie Changyuan kissed her dirty face. Seeing that she still looked in disbelief, he pretended to take off her clothes so that she could see clearly for herself.

At this time, Aunt Liu came in with some medicine, and just in time to see him taking off his belt, she immediately said "Ouch" and hurriedly exited.

Xie Changyuan smiled and ordered: "Go and get some food and water, Master, there is no need to look for it."

Aunt Liu quickly said "yes" and left with Qing Moss, who was stupidly living, and closed the door for the two of them.

"It's all right."

Xie Changyuan emphasized again, pulled open the skirt and middle coat, exposing the skin between the waist and abdomen, and then took Chen Shulan's hand and lowered it, "Look, it's just a little scratch on the skin."

"It will grow back quickly and there will be no scars in the future."

Chen Shulan took a deep breath and pushed Xie Changyuan angrily.

Xie Changyuan was pushed back two steps and leaned against the bedpost. He also pulled Chen Shulan into his arms and said with a smile: "What about murdering your husband? Although I wasn't really injured, it was very tiring to come here non-stop. .”

"Good Ningning, please say something nice to coax me."

Chen Shulan said angrily: "You bastard!"

Xie Changyuan laughed.

... There are not many defenders in Jizhou City. Xie Zhaozhao and Xuanming arrived suddenly. In just half a day, they controlled the city gate and held the entire Jizhou City in their hands.

After Xie Zhaozhao made sure that the city defense was secure, he immediately arrived at the post house.

When he dismounted, Xuan Ming arrived just in time.

The two of them looked at each other in front of the post house, and talked about important matters while walking inside.

Xuan Ming said: "Liu Chunjun ran away and took away some of his troops. He should have gone to find Chen Wenzhuo."

"How many."

"Thirty thousand."

"The number is not large..." Xie Zhaozhao entered the hall at this time, sitting on the main seat as usual, gently tapping the armrest of the Grand Master's chair with his fingers, "But His Highness and the King of Zhongshan did not bring many people. "

Xuan Ming nodded: "And we don't know what is going on with Chen Wenzhuo. If he instigates other people on the border to attack together, His Highness's situation will be even more endangered."

Xie Zhaozhao frowned for a moment and said: "Let Xuan Jing lead 8000 people to stay and guard Jizhou City in case there is a change in the rear. You can take [-] of the remaining people and I will take [-]."

"You go and intercept Liu Chunjun, and I'll go after His Highness - has the letter to Chen Wenshuo been delivered?"

"Send it off. Your Highness sent someone on horseback before setting off, and also brought His Highness's personal token. If nothing happens, I believe Chen Wenshuo has received the message by now."

"That's good."

Xie Zhaozhao took a breath, squinted at the stars in the dark night sky outside, and said quietly: "I hope this time we can eliminate the rebellious people in northern Hebei and ensure the peace here."

Xuan Ming nodded and said "Yeah".

He stood during the entire conversation.

Xie Zhaozhao seemed to be accustomed to that position, and his speech and behavior were as natural and intimidating as a general in the army.

Xuan Ming actually felt that it was normal for her to sit and stand by herself, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Moreover, Xie Zhaozhao's expression is somewhat similar to His Highness's.

Xuan Ming couldn't help but sigh. She was indeed the woman His Highness fell in love with, and she was the one he would spend the rest of his life with. With such a well-matched match, he would be able to achieve success in the future.

"lets go!"

Xie Zhaozhao stood up with a snap, "The situation is still unclear, so we can't waste any time."

Xuan Ming cupped his hands and said, "Yes."

……

Yun Qi and the King of Zhongshan were patrolling the border and not marching, and both of them had considerations in their minds, so they did not go wrong along the way.

The King of Zhongshan was polite and respectful all the way, and introduced to Yun Qi the military training in northern Hebei, as well as the situation in the seven border cities. The guard general was quite proud when talking about Chen Wenshuo.

But with a bit of humility and caution.

"Wen Shuo is sensible and capable, but he is still young and has an unstable temper. I hope His Highness will give you more guidance in the future so that he can serve the imperial court."

This clearly told Yun Qi that the title of Zhongshan Prince would go to Luo Si and Chen Wenshuo in the future.

Yun Qi said with a smile: "The people trained by King Zhongshan are definitely not bad. I am about the same age as your literary master, and I am not much better than him. I don't dare to give you some advice, but we can exchange a few things and make progress together." .”

The King of Zhongshan said sincerely: "His Highness has both talent and virtue, and is far-sighted. He is at ease both in the military and in the court. He is truly a first-class figure in our Qin Dynasty, and no one can compare with him."

"Although Wen Shuo is also a young talent, he is very different from His Highness."
