Chapter 192 New State
Li Xunchuan said softly: "As soon as possible, I know you are worried about Uncle Zhou and the others."

Zhuo Ran smiled: "Okay."

Li Xunchuan lowered his eyes: "Do you want to drink more? Your hands are still a little cold."

Zhuo Ran shook his head, Li Xunchuan put down the water glass, took off his shoes and socks and went directly to the couch, Zhuo Ran lay down and gave him the quilt, Li Xunchuan directly hugged him into his arms.

"I think you've really changed a lot." Li Yanchuan tried to convey more warmth to Zhuo Ran, he stroked Zhuo Ran's arm, "But Xiaqiu, we said before that we would go back to Yuzhou first, now we're going to Yongzhou, let’s send a letter to Mr. Wei to tell him to be mentally prepared. To be honest, I’m not sure that Yongzhou will be able to strip Nie Hanshan, because this person is definitely not as simple as the rumors say.”

Zhuo Ran nodded: "I know. From the beginning, his words were reasonable. In many ways, he can completely get rid of my thoughts, and he can also use things to bind me. It seems to be a very simple way for him. I have There are ways to keep yourself sane, but rarely enough.”

"I can tell." Li Yuchuan said, "Although you were holding up your spirits when you came back, I knew something must have happened to you, but I wouldn't ask if you didn't tell me. But you don't have to be afraid, I'm by your side , I believe that everything can be resolved smoothly. Nie Hanshan has status in Yongzhou, and those ancient Qiang people who have been favored by him naturally trust him, but this is not a good thing for us. If he reveals something when he returns this time, Let's not act rashly. He invites you to go, and I will wait outside. If there is any danger, I will lead people to rush there immediately. "

Zhuo Ran smiled when he heard the words, and said: "He Xi is surrounded by a cloud of masters, and he himself is also very good. Didn't the Lord Hou forget to stop you there last time?"

"How do you know?" Li Yanchuan lowered his eyes, "You..."

Zhuo Ran paused for a moment, but she never met Li Yanchuan's eyes. She thought for a while, but she was so sleepy that she couldn't think of a word, and asked Li Yanchuan to take advantage of the loophole.Li Xunchuan knew what Zhuo Ran meant, he didn't say any more, he just hugged him tighter, Zhuo Ran touched his arm, feeling a little out of breath.

"It's pretty good as it is now." Zhuo Ran sighed, "An extra day of rest is a day, I don't want you to be in danger for me again, although I feel distressed about your injury now, there is nothing I can do about it. But when I go back to Yongzhou, I am also afraid that you will be in danger again, this battlefield is one less time, I just hope you can be well."

"I've always been fine." Li Yuchuan smiled in a low voice, "It's just a few minor injuries, don't worry about it. I know I can't make you worry about me too much, so I will try to minimize my injuries, you have to trust me."

"I believe in you." Zhuo Ran said softly.

Li Xunchuan's fingers slid onto Zhuo Ran's neck, and he slightly raised his head to look at the deep tooth marks, feeling a little distressed, but he never touched them.Zhuo Ran held his finger and gave a soft "hmm".

"Sorry," Li Yuchuan said, "I didn't do it on purpose, and I won't bite you again in the future. It may have been a brain twitch at the time, and it shouldn't be like this."

Zhuo Ran shook her head and said: "It would be nice if you hug me more, but Chi Yue, I want to be with you all the time, this kind of pain is actually not pain, I have seen more uncomfortable feelings, you just need to Do one thing, just be with me, and be safe."

Li Xunchuan kissed Zhuo Ran's forehead: "How could I fall in love with you?"

"Shouldn't..." Zhuo Ran gently pushed him away, "Is it love?"

Li Xunchuan smiled: "Yes, I love you."

"Me too." Zhuo Ran climbed onto Li Yuchuan's shoulders, "Why would I fall in love with you? If it weren't for you, I might have left with Master long ago. These days are all earned by me. I don't expect too much. Much, just want to be with you, I want to be with you forever."

Li Xunchuan inexplicably remembered what the doctor said that day.It is not easy for Zhuo Ran to survive until now, they can no longer have their own children, and it is impossible for them to grow old forever, but Li Yanchuan has been numbing himself all this time, telling himself that these things are not important at all, and Zhuo Ran was wronged by others. He doesn't recognize the definition at all, he wants Zhuo Ran to be with him, he is the one who decides Zhuo Ran's life and death, he doesn't believe in the so-called god of death, he only believes that as long as he is here, Zhuo Ran will not leave him easily.

"Xiaqiu..." Li Yanchuan said softly, "I want to tell you something."

Zhuo Ran nodded: "You say."

"I..." Li Yuchuan paused, "I don't want a child, just the two of us, okay? In the future, as long as the two of us are together, okay?"

Zhuo Ran was stunned for a moment, then she said: "Chi Yue, why?"

"There is no reason," Li Yuchuan said softly, "I just thought, if you have a child, you have to watch him grow up, it will definitely be a distraction, and you don't love me like this, I don't want him to distract you, so I would rather not have him. Besides, our family, with my sister and children, is already very good, so I think it is enough for them to be happy, and the two of us are more relaxed and happy than them."

Only then did Zhuo Ran smile: "Chi Yue, there are three types of unfilial piety, and the greatest thing is to have no descendants. You are a champion, how can you think so."

"Also," Li Yuchuan said, "I heard that giving birth to a child will be very painful. I don't want you to suffer, so I can't. Although I am a champion, we have Boye now. We can regard him as our own child. Really You don't need to live by yourself."

Zhuo Ran pinched Li Yanchuan's cheeks: "I didn't realize it before, why are you so cute?"

"No." Li Yuchuan squeezed the troublesome hand, "What I said is true, in this matter, you just listen to me, okay?"

Zhuo Ran nodded lightly: "Okay, I promise you. Emperor Chongwen and Concubine Lan don't want Boye to go on the road of no return, so just come with us, it will be more free."

"Don't you want to be an emperor?" Li Yanchuan asked in a low voice, "Isn't everything we are doing now just to make you an emperor?"

Zhuo Ran said softly: "I've been thinking about this for a while. If we succeed in the end, that would be the best. I will definitely look for new characters, people who can not start wars, people who can control everything Man, I... don't want to be emperor, I never thought about it that way from the beginning."

Li Xunchuan touched the back of Zhuo Ran's neck, and heard her continue: "Whether it's Master or Uncle Zhou, what they want is to make me happy. As long as I get my father's name right and complete what Master told me, I will be considered a success." Retired, so it's good, I don't think it will affect us, we have a long time."

"You're right," Li Yunchuan said, "You're right."

Zhuo Ran curled up in his arms and said softly: "Of course you are right, Chi Yue, I'm sleepy..."

"Go to sleep." Li Yanchuan coaxed, "We will return to Yongzhou after dealing with these matters."

***
I thought it would take a few more days for the news from Tuzhou to arrive, but I didn't expect Zhuo Ran to send me a letter so soon.Wei Zhuang thought that something happened to Tuzhou, but it turned out that He Xi was dead and Tuzhou was now completely taken down.

Meng Weidao opened his eyes wide: "It's so fast!"

Wei Zhuang smiled and handed the letter to Meng Weidao for him to read, and said softly, "Yes, I didn't expect it to be so fast. However, Nan Qing said that she and Lord Hou planned to go directly to Yongzhou, and if they could handle the affairs of Yongzhou well, they would naturally Faster."

"Nie Hanshan..." Meng Weidao frowned, "The matter of Nie Hanshan may be even more difficult."

Wei Zhuang said: "But Nan Qing didn't ask us to help, so let's hold back for now."

"Now we don't have the ability to help Nan Qing. Gu Zhao and I have temporarily brought up the matter of the new school grounds these days, and I think we will be able to help after a while." Meng Weidao said, "There is still a letter for Wei Xun Yes, I'll send it to him right now."

Zhuo Ran sandwiched the letter to Wei Xun, Meng Weidao squeezed the letter and said, "Master Wei, let's look at other things, I'll go to Wei Xun."

"it is good."

Wei Xun's wounds are healing well, and he can still get out of bed and walk around in the past few days, and his movements have become more flexible.It's just that it's cold outside, so Meng Weidao didn't let him go out. He's still nestling in the room looking at the things that Gu Zhao brought him.Although Wei Xun was a little bored, but Gu Zhao saw his ability, and sometimes he would ask his opinion.

Besides, he is still from Zisha Hall, and Wei Zhuang and Meng Weidao also respect him very much.

"Why is Master Meng here?" Wei Xun was about to get up to greet him, but Meng Weidao directly suppressed his movements, and said, "You don't need to get up, just sit down first."

Wei Xun looked up at him, Meng Weidao sat aside, handed the letter to Wei Xun, and said softly, "This is a letter from Nan Qing, please read it carefully."

"Yes." Wei Xun took it with both hands. He didn't avoid Meng Weidao, and directly opened it to look at it.Zhuo Ran said in the letter that he had met Sai Jin, Zisha Tang's elder brother, and that Sai Jin would stay in Tuzhou, and they planned to return to Yongzhou first.If Wei Xun wanted to stay in Yuzhou, he would help him out more. If he didn't want to, he would bring someone to meet Sai Jin first when his injury got better, but the premise was that his injury was not serious.

It's just that he never explained to Zhuo Ran that his elder brother is actually a woman.Zhuo Ran didn't show any anger in the letter, he just stated the matter.Wei Xun frowned slightly, and put the letter away.

"What did Nanqing say?"

Wei Xun said softly, "Say... it depends on whether I want to stay in Yuzhou or go to Tuzhou to meet the people from Zishatang, and let me recover from my injuries."

Meng Weidao nodded: "Nanqing is very thoughtful. Zishatang is now staying in Tuzhou, and it is actually Nanqing's right-hand man, and you are also a member of Zishatang. Nanqing naturally hopes that you can try your best to play your role, so you can Think it over."

Wei Xun smiled: "I will think about it carefully. By the way, Mr. Meng, Gu Zhao told me about the school grounds. The land was chosen very well. I think construction should start at the end of the month."

"Yes." Meng Weidao said, "but at the same time, we have to find a way to deal with the garrison affairs, so that we can really help Nanqing."

"Actually, my injury is almost healed. I think I can go with you." Wei Xun said, "Master Meng, I..."

Meng Weidao smiled: "Heal the injury first, it will take a hundred days to hurt the muscles and bones, so don't be impatient."

Wei Xun nodded.

Xiqi Yuzhou.

"There has never been such a flower in southern Xinjiang." Mu Heng was very excited when he saw the red plums, "It's very beautiful."

Chang Yinyu followed behind her: "It's like laughing at the side of a bottle, and the red plum blossoms are cold at the end. [1] Southern Xinjiang is warm all year round, and there has never been such a grand scene, but now is not the time to appreciate the beautiful scenery, so hurry up Well, it's still early."

"What are you in a hurry for?" Mu Heng ran towards the red plum forest, Chang Yinyu caught up with her and grabbed her.

"What are you doing? I'll just go and have a look, can't I just get closer? The plum blossoms are so fragrant!" Mu Heng didn't break free, Chang Yinyu grabbed the man's arm and walked back, saying: "I told you, now it's not When appreciating, I am looking for you for something important, can you stop being so playful."

Mu Heng frowned: "Where am I playful? I am not playful! I just want to see what this red plum blossom looks like. Why are you like this? I won't waste time if I take a look! You pull me I've already finished watching the work!"

"You never count your words!" Chang Yinyu said without hesitation, "If I believe you again, I'll be a fool!"

"Then you are a fool!" Mu Heng said urgently, "Let go of me, let go!"

Chang Yinyu threw her on the horse's back, pulled the rein and walked forward, and only let go of the rein when he was far away. Mu Heng stared at him angrily and remained silent for a long time.

"You want to see it later, so don't delay now." Chang Yinyu explained, "My master doesn't know if I will go back or not. If something really happens to you, I will regret it."

"Hmph." Mu Heng didn't turn his head back.

"Okay, okay," Chang Yinyu said softly, "I owe you this time, and I will definitely listen to you when I encounter such a situation in the future. You can play for a few days if you want, okay?"

Mu Heng ignored him.

Chang Yinyu felt something was wrong when he first entered the Xinzhou territory.It seemed as if something major had just happened here, and the word embarrassment couldn't be used to describe it, it was a bit of dead silence after the storm.Chang Yinyu stopped Mu Heng and said softly, "Don't move yet."

"Didn't you say listen to me?" Mu Heng turned to look at him.

Chang Yinyu gave a "tsk" sound: "Look at what is in front of you."

Only then did Mu Heng turn her head to look, and there was a person covered in blood lying in front of her. She was startled, and jumped off the horse to take a look, only to find that the person was dead.Mu Heng looked up at Chang Yinyu: "Xinzhou was slaughtered?"

Chang Yinyu shook his head: "Why don't I look like it?"

Before the words were finished, someone came to surround the two of them. Chang Yinyu got out of the carriage immediately, and Mu Heng hid behind him and frowned: "Are you sure you didn't go the wrong way? Why are there so many people here? Are you just playing?" ever?"

"How do I know that?" Chang Yinyu whispered.

"Who are you?"

Chang Yinyu raised his head: "Who do you care about me?"

"The general has an order, and anyone who refuses to obey will be executed immediately!"

"Wait!" Chang Yinyu frowned. He looked at the clothes of these people carefully, and he always felt a little familiar. He thought about it carefully before saying, "So they are from Xiqi."

"Take it!"

"Wait!" Chang Yinyu said urgently, "Why are you so anxious? People from Xiqi... It seems that you should be under General Ye Ji's command. Why, does General Ye Ji also want to grab the territory from my master?"

"Your master?"

Chang Yinyu smiled and said: "A few days ago, Nanqing went to Tuzhou to take down the traitor He Xi and regained the lost land in Yuzhou. He wanted to take down Yongxin and Tuzhou together, but he had no choice but to encounter some difficulties. I didn't expect that the trouble they said would have something to do with Xi Qi."

"Nanqing? Are you from Nanqing?"

A soldier walked around from behind, and Chang Yinyu knew that he should report to Ye Ji.But there is no rush, Chang Yinyu just wants to know what Ye Ji's intention is?If Ye Ji wanted to expand the territory of Xiqi, it would not be a good choice to attack Xinzhou.

Mu Heng asked in a low voice behind Chang Yinyu: "What do you mean?"

"You don't care."

Not long after, Wan Ze came.Chang Yinyu had never seen Wanze before, but she was also a heroic woman, so he didn't say much, just bowed his head and saluted lightly.

Wan Ze looked down at Chang Yinyu, got off his horse and came in front of the two of them, saying, "The general wants to see you, come with me."

"Wait!" Chang Yinyu said, "General Ye Ji is really in Xinzhou."

"Yeah." Wan Ze said, "Nanqing's people naturally want to meet up."

Ye Jishang was patrolling the city, and went to meet people directly after receiving the order.Wan Ze took the two of them to a place, and when Ye Ji stepped through the door, Chang Yinyu finally saw an acquaintance.That's someone who looks familiar. When Ye Ji went to Gaodu to meet her, Chang Yinyu saw her. He looked at Ye Ji and pulled Mu Heng to salute Ye Ji.

"No need." Ye Ji blocked his hand, "Shouldn't you be in Yongzhou? Why did you come to Xinzhou all of a sudden? Where's Nanqing?"

Chang Yinyu frowned, and said: "I...I separated from my master, and went to find Mu...to find someone. When I left, the master was preparing to go to Yuzhou, but I don't know if I will go back now or not. , Am I planning to go over from Xinzhou?"

"Ah."

"But General," Chang Yinyu said, "Why did you come to Xinzhou? Is there something wrong?"

"Xinzhou is with me for the time being." Ye Ji said in a deep voice, "I also you should know what your master thinks, she wants to have Yongxin Tu Sanzhou in her pocket, it is actually not difficult, I needed to see you at that time Master, but now is not a good time."

Chang Yinyu didn't quite understand.But he had no way to ask. After all, Ye Ji and Zhuo Ran had nothing to do with each other. He couldn't disclose any information to Ye Ji. He needed to get in touch with Zhuo Ran earlier, and the first thing was to leave Xinzhou as soon as possible.Seeing that it is not far from Yongzhou, it is only a few days away.

Ye Ji lowered her eyes and smiled: "I won't make things difficult for you, just leave after you have finished your rest."

Chang Yinyu looked at Ye Ji: "What does General Ye mean? My master, she..."

"I said that I want to have an interview with your master," Ye Ji said in a low voice, "What you say now doesn't count. I just hope you can bring the words to me. I wonder if you can help me with this."

Chang Yinyu was eager to leave this place, he replied: "It's natural."
