Chapter 177
After Li Xunchuan finished speaking, he was silent for a long time, and Shang Luoqiu was also silent.Xiao Qijing searched for the person named Zhuo Ran in his memory, and Beili did not know the news from outside. Emperor Chongwen announced to the world that Zhuo Ting's daughter Zhuo Ran was dead, so how could she be Li Yuchuan's sweetheart again.

Li Junyi only heard them say their name, Zhuo Ran's word was Xiaqiu, and she felt that she should be a gentle woman. Li Yunchuan, Xiao Qijing and Shang Luoqiu were all silent, and she didn't know whether she should ask more questions.

Li Yunchuan didn't want to say that Zhuo Ran was Nan Xiang.Zhuo Ran didn't want this identity, he didn't want it either, and if Bei Li knew about it, he wouldn't want it either.People from the royal family shouldn't be involved in these matters, Li Yanchuan just wanted to stuff Zhuo Ran into his arms, and no one else would want to take her away.

Shang Luoqiu finally broke the rather embarrassing atmosphere, he said in a deep voice, "What kind of power does this Zhuo Ran have, that he can trick Emperor Chongwen into surviving?"

"It's not a lie," Li Yanchuan thought for a while and said, "Emperor Chongwen agreed, she is staying in Yongzhou now, and I will take her back to Beili after I deal with these matters."

"I've also heard the rumors about Zhuo Ran." Li Junyi looked at Li Yuchuan, "It was rumored that she had some relationship with Emperor Nanhuan before. Is this true?"

Li Xunchuan didn't speak.Xiao Qijing leaned back on the chair, he thought about it carefully, and said, "Why didn't you just bring her back this time, since you've already left Gaodu anyway, don't you worry about leaving her somewhere else?"

Shang Luoqiu snorted softly and said: "Isn't it that I haven't figured out what to say? If we don't want to bring the girl back, this kid has to think about how to coax his wife and then go on coaxing us. I definitely don’t want to bring people back.”

"I haven't." Li Yuchuan said in a low voice.

Li Junyi smiled and said: "It's a good thing that Ah Yan has a sweetheart. In the future, the family will have someone in charge. Don't worry about us embarrassing her. We will naturally like what you like. Don't treat Ah Yan badly." People, if you want to find her, bring her back and let us take a closer look."

Xiao Qijing echoed: "In any case, she is a talented woman from Yongzhou, both talented and beautiful. Don't bully her just because she is the champion. That Zhuo Ran is indeed a little young, so you should treat her well and don't make her wait too long .”

Li Xunchuan hissed softly, touched his earlobe, and said, "But I still have a lot of things to do, Xia...Although my wife is young, she is sensible, and she can do without me."

Shang Luoqiu glared at Li Yanchuan, and he was ashamed for Li Yanchuan: "You are not ashamed, you are still a wife and daughter-in-law, and the girls didn't even say they want to marry you, so you take advantage of others, Li Yanchuan, why are you so cheeky? thick?"

"She has been mine for a long time." Li Yuchuan immediately regained his energy when he said this. He sat upright in an instant, his voice raised a few degrees, and he said, "Everyone in my family likes her, so I naturally want to marry her early. She came through."

"Heh." Shang Luoqiu snorted softly, and he immediately poured cold water on Li Yuchuan, "Your arm injury was there before you came back, didn't you tell Zhuo Ran that you will go back to Yongzhou to find him?" He is still dragging his sick body, see if Zhuo Ran will beat you to death first."

Li Xunchuan raised his eyebrows: "You won't ignore me if you kill me, right, Master."

"Who did you learn your back-talking from?" Shang Luoqiu frowned, "I don't understand Li Yuchuan, Zhuo Ran is a talented woman from Yongzhou, how could they stand an uneducated rough guy like you who is full of dissatisfaction?" Half the bottle is dangling, but the mouth is still sharp all day long."

Li Junyi couldn't help covering his lips and chuckling, and Xiao Qijing also laughed when he heard the word "rough guy". He looked at Li Yuchuan, maybe he was busy on the road these days, and he went directly to the battlefield when he came back. Li Xunchuan was wearing a big robe, his short beard was not shaved, his hair was disheveled and out of shape, and his sitting posture was bold and flamboyant. He really looked like a rough guy.

"You can't say that about Master." Xiao Qijing forced himself to stop laughing, "Our Aunt looks pretty good too. I only saw Zhuo Ran briefly in Gaodu last time. Auntie has good eyesight. Zhuo Ran is really good-looking. , It matches our Aunt very well."

Shang Luoqiu gave him a blank look: "Even if this brat is ugly, you can praise him to the sky."

Li Junyi likes them bickering together the most. In the past, Li Xunchuan was cold-tempered. Except for a few words from Shang Luoqiu, he didn't dare to be as indifferent as he is now. This time, it was a brand new Li Xunchuan.In the past few years, Li Junyi has rarely received letters from Li Yunchuan, and only heard about him.As far as Xiao Qijing said, he has been with Zhuo Ran for a long time these years, and Zhuo Ran is very important to Li Yunchuan, and now he has become a look that the whole family is very pleased with, Zhuo Ran has contributed a lot.

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, hoping that Li Yuchuan would quickly bring him back to have a look.

"I'm almost healed now," Xiao Qijing said, "Ye Nuo was seriously injured, and the Baishi tribe will not come to the northern border in a short time. I will let Xiong Zhenghao go to the northern border to guard, and I will follow Master to deal with the big translation." Ze and Yuqiu, Ah Yang, let’s go to Yongzhou after finishing up.”

Li Xunchuan raised his eyes to look at Xiao Qijing.

Shang Luoqiu sighed deeply, he looked at Li Yuchuan, and said what he had kept for a long time: "Don't be embarrassed to tell us, we have heard about Zhuo Ran, she is now in Yongzhou and wants to follow Hanshan King made a deal. That rumor is not a rumor, but we don’t care who Zhuo Ran is at all, but Li Yanchuan, remember for me, don’t forget what you want to do, Beili is not what you want, you can do whatever you want. He is the champion, not only Li Yuchuan."

Xiao Qijing said softly: "Master..."

Li Yanchuan lowered his eyes, and Shang Luoqiu said in a deep voice: "We don't know or understand many things. You have to stand tall to see far. Now Beili is not what you thought it was. These people think about the future, don't leave endless troubles, and regret it later."

Li Xunchuan pursed his lips tightly: "I know."

Li Junyi didn't quite understand Shang Luoqiu's words, Xiao Qijing held her hand silently, and shook his head slightly at her.Shang Luoqiu sighed, and said: "The Forbidden Army followed you through life and death, and Beili will naturally not treat them badly, so don't worry about it, and take care of your injuries."

Li Xunchuan nodded.

Li Junyi saw Li Yunchuan frowned again later, and was not in high spirits when he was leaving. He wanted to ask a few more questions, but Xiao Qijing stopped him.After coaxing Xiao Ziyi to sleep, Li Junyi returned to the big tent, looked at Xiao Qijing who was arranging the roster of the forbidden army, and went to make a bed by the side of the couch, she said softly, "What did Master just mean? Is there something wrong with that Zhuo Ran? "

Hearing the sound, Xiao Qijing raised his eyes: "I forgot to tell you before, Zhuo Ran is actually not Zhuo Ting's daughter, she is the little princess of Emperor Nanhuan and Empress Yu Jing."

"What?" Li Junyi frowned, "Didn't it be a rumor?"

Xiao Qijing shook his head: "Zhuo Ran is now following Nie Hanshan, saying that he wants to use Nie Hanshan's hand to take down the Yongxin Tu Sanzhou. Ayu was worried about her and asked Xiyu and Gu Zhao to take people to protect her. Ah Xun told me secretly that night. I thought Master didn’t know, but I didn’t expect to keep it a secret. Master knows everything. I saw that Ah Xun’s expression changed when he spoke.”

Naturally, Shang Luoqiu wanted to guard Beili for Li Yunchuan.Zhuo Ran and Li Yuchuan are good friends, but she is very controversial now.What Zhuo Ran did was to win the throne. Li Xunchuan naturally wanted to put Beili into Zhuo Ran's plan, not to mention whether it was successful or not. Now, Beili still had to fight against the ten tribes of the ancient Qiang, so what was left? Can you help Zhuo Ran?If he loses by one step, Beili will fall into a land of eternal doom. Emperor Taiping is not a good person, so naturally he will not let Beili go easily.Do you want to let the whole Beili be buried with you?

But it was not easy for Li Xunchuan to meet his sweetheart, and it was impossible for Shang Luoqiu to separate the two alive.Li Xunchuan can change, he can always think of Zhuo Ran, this kind of affection is not pretended, and he is also reluctant to make Li Xunchuan sad, and he can't intervene in his affairs.Li Xunchuan has grown up, and Li Xunchuan, who was frizzy in the past, has become more mature, and he should not hold back Li Xunchuan's footsteps anymore.

But these things seemed hopeless, how could he let Li Yuchuan get into trouble again?

Li Junyi understood Shang Luoqiu's entanglement, but she also felt sorry for Li Yunchuan.Xiao Qijing sighed deeply, and said: "Ah Yu is also struggling, but Zhuo Ran is too important to him, he can't let down Zhuo Ran, and he can't let down Beili. Naturally, Master and I will help him guard Beili. Li, as for other matters, I will leave them all to Ah Yang."

"Ah Yan is not a person who can't distinguish between the important and the important. We just listen to him. Besides, you and Master should not think too much about things that haven't happened, and don't put more pressure on Ah Yan. He just came back, it's better You care well." Li Junyi bit the corner of his lips, he thought that Li Yanchuan would feel happy when he had a sweetheart, she changed the subject and said, "But Ah Jing, Ah Yan is going to marry Zhuo Ran, what kind of gifts should we prepare?"

Xiao Qijing smiled: "You haven't brought him back yet, so you should worry about it first."

Li Junyi thought about it carefully, and said, "By the way, what about the sandalwood hairpin that mother gave to father at that time?"

"Sandalwood hairpin?" Xiao Qijing frowned slightly, "Will it look a bit shabby? At least gold and silver, jewelry, brocade, etc., a sandalwood hairpin Zhuo Ran can fall in love with? Don't make people think that we are good in Beili Nothing."

Li Junyi looked at Xiao Qijing: "Superficial."

"What's the matter?" Xiao Qijing stretched his arms, and he tilted his head to look at Li Junyi, "I seemed to have given you a family heirloom back then, and that was the real suet jade."

Li Junyi took out the pendant hanging around his neck and showed it to him: "It is indeed a treasure, but if you don't give me this, I will follow you. Ah Jing, do you know why mother gave father a sandalwood hairpin all the time? ?”

Xiao Qijing shook his head.

"Why ask Yijun, the double-beaded tortoiseshell hairpin[1]." Li Junyi said, "The children of Beili only treat each other with sincerity. In many cases, a token is a promise. Since father accepted the hairpin, he will definitely not let his mother down." , since this Zhuo Ran is a talented woman from Yongzhou, she must understand the meaning of this hairpin. Ah Yang will give her more, and she must not like yellow and white things outside her body."

Xiao Qijing nodded when he heard the words, and said, "You are right."

Li Junyi spread out the quilt, she sat on the side of the couch, and said, "I'll go back to the mansion in a few days and give it to Ah Yang."

"What are you going to do with Ah Yan?" Xiao Qijing said, "Anyway, everyone will be brought back by Ah Yan. Let's just wait. By the way, the last time we saw that Zhuo Ran, Master and I both felt that she was sick. Very weak, looks like the kind of weak person, Master didn't realize that Zhuo Ran actually knows kung fu, and it's not bad."

Li Junyi came over and took the roster in his hand and put it on the table, she said, "I'll change the medicine for you first."

Xiao Qijing got up, and Li Junyi said: "It's good to be weak and recuperate slowly. When she arrives in Beili, we will prescribe the right medicine. Speaking of which, she is only 17 years old, which is really a bit young. Didn't our aunt deceive her?"

Xiao Qijing untied his clothes, Li Junyi found the ointment and put it neatly on the small table, she cleaned her hands, and untied the gauze wrapped around Xiao Qijing's chest.Xiao Qijing lowered his eyes: "But what Master said is not unreasonable, and Ah Yang can't devote himself wholeheartedly to Zhuo Ran. Bei Li still has his own things to do. Besides, if Zhuo Ran really becomes the emperor in the end, then Bei Li What should we do. Apart from Beili and Xiqi Yidong, what identity do we want to get along with Zhuo Ran? We have been begging for so long for freedom, do we still want to continue to prostrate ourselves?"

Li Junyi's movements were slow and light, and she said: "Let's leave these matters to Ah Yan. We can give him advice at most. Ah Jing, if it wasn't for Ah Yan, I definitely don't want you to become the king of Beili. This position It's too dangerous, I just want you, Master, Ah Yu, and our children to be safe and sound, I don't care about the rest, and I don't want to waste my mind on it."

Xiao Qijing gently held her hand: "Ping'an is not imagining, and I also think you don't have to worry about anything, but it is obviously impossible. I am the King of Beili not only to help Ah Yan, I also hope that I will I have the ability to protect you, to protect Beili, instead of being an ordinary person. So..."

Xiao Qijing pulled her down, Li Junyi bent down, he smiled, and said softly: "Daughter-in-law, you have to have some confidence in me. Ah Yu is no longer clinging to you, you are mine alone."

Li Junyi pursed his lips and smiled, Xiao Qijing pinched her chin, and Li Junyi kissed him on the brow: "Actually, this is pretty good."

Xiao Qijing was full of smiles, and after Li Junyi re-wrapped him, he lay flat on the couch, Li Junyi turned off the light, and Xiao Qijing pulled him into his arms.Li Junyi pulled up the quilt, and said softly, "Master has said so much, I'm afraid Ah Yu won't be able to sleep well tonight."

Li Xunchuan was indeed not asleep.

***
Zhuo Ran didn't fall asleep either.

As soon as Wei Xun followed Zhuo Ran back, He Xi entered the mansion one step later, but they didn't meet each other. Zhuo Ran still heard someone outside saying that He Xi ordered to boil water for a bath, so he knew that He Xi had come back .

Zhuo Ran sat at the table and stared at the candle without moving. Wei Xun was very anxious. No matter how much he contacted Zishatang, he did not respond. The eldest brother sent a message to him saying that he was here in Tuzhou. There is no reason to send a message.Zhuo Ran knew that he was impatient, so she only comforted him with words for a while.He Xiding still has connections with the ancient Qiang people. Nie Hanshan said it was for these innocent ancient Qiang people to live a good life, but Zhuo Ran didn't believe that he had such a bodhisattva heart. There must be something else he didn't know. Naturally, Xi is not a kind person, Zhuo Ran listened to what he said just now, but she still understood the general meaning.

He Xi wants to lead people into Yuzhou.In fact, they had such intentions before Zhuo Ran came. Zhuo Ran happened to be the fuse. Princess Nanxiang fell into their hands. Gu Qiang was not afraid of Yuzhou, let alone Dayu.Zhuo Ran bit her lip, she needed to lure these people out completely, to Yuzhou, but whether Li Yanchuan would come to help her, although Zhuo Ran had a hunch, but Zhuo Ran didn't dare to bet, the price would be too high.

Zhuo Ran looked at Wei Xun: "Zishatang can't be contacted, maybe it's because He Xi controls Tuzhou too strictly, we don't have to do anything here, if it doesn't work, we go to Yuzhou. Wei Zhuang should have been prepared, we There is only one thing to do and two things to stop.”

"But girl," Wei Xun said, "are you really going to follow them into Yuzhou? Lord Wei and Lord Meng don't know our plan. If they really misunderstood something, they can't explain it clearly. The girl told them not to Open the door, if the girl encounters any danger, what should I do?"

"Those things are not important now." Zhuo Ran sighed and said softly, "There is Nie Hanshan in Yongzhou, and he can't let go until these matters are resolved, and Uncle Zhou and Wu Song are still in Yongzhou. If Nie Hanshan attacks them with evil intentions, I'm afraid I will die. I need to quickly, quickly settle these matters, and then rush back to Yongzhou."

Wei Xun nodded: "I will always follow the girl."

Zhuo Ran smiled lightly: "From the very beginning, perhaps the one I felt the most sorry for was the Zisha Hall."

"Girl, don't say that." Wei Xun said, "This is our responsibility, and we don't blame anyone. By the way, girl, you asked Chang Yinyu to go to Suicheng to find Mu Heng. Is it because the girl is not feeling well? If it is true these days If you are tired, you can tell me directly if you have anything to do, and you don’t have to solve it yourself.”

Zhuo Ran shook her head: "No discomfort. It's just that Uncle Zhou and you follow me, you will inevitably get hurt. Mu Heng's medical skills are superb and he is open-minded. If Yike finds her, he will be able to persuade her to come and help me. I'm just afraid that you will all be hurt unnecessarily because of me."

Wei Xun smiled lightly and said, "Young lady is very similar to Empress Yu Jing in this respect."

Zhuo Ran raised her eyebrows: "Didn't you say that you haven't seen Queen Yu Jing? How do you know that I resemble her?"

"Didn't that He Xi say that Empress Yu Jing is also so kind?" Wei Xun said, "Many people say that. When I look at the girl and think of their descriptions, I can naturally imagine the appearance of Empress Yu Jing. Girl Benevolence, I know that I have not trusted the wrong person."

Zhuo Ran couldn't help laughing, she said, "You must have suffered a lot for trusting others so easily."

Wei Xun shook his head.

Zhuo Ran looked at his face, staring at Wei Xun shyly.Zhuo Ran said softly: "You can't just look at the surface of many things. Behind the benevolence and kindness is cruelty and perversion with blood. I may have a heart of snakes and scorpions, but you happen to be a kind and simple farmer."
