Chapter 208 Awakening
After Zhou Yu cleaned up the kitchen, Zhuo Ran came back, but he looked a little unhappy, but Chang Yinyu smiled.Zhou Yu frowned and said, "Yike, what's wrong with you?"

Chang Yinyu shrugged his shoulders: "What's wrong with us?"

"Ran'er looks so unhappy?"

Zhuo Ran said softly, "It's just that it's a little cold outside, and I feel a little uncomfortable. Don't worry, Uncle Zhou."

"It's fine as long as it's okay, the medicine is almost ready, and you can drink it later."

"Thank you, Uncle Zhou." Zhuo Ran said, "Uncle Zhou and Yike should go and rest too, I'll go and see Sister Fu."

Zhou Yu nodded: "Okay."

***
Zhuo Ran searched around but didn't see Fu Sisi, so she went to the back room.Fu Sisi sat on the edge of the bed, took Tian Wuruo's hand and lowered her head, Zhuo Ran called out before she realized it.

Fu Sisi looked back and got up immediately: "Xiaqiu, why are you here?"

"Just now Lord Hou went back to Beili, I wanted to come over to see you. How is the situation of the Celestial Master?"

Zhuo Ran supported Fu Sisi to sit down, and said: "If you have any questions, Sister Fu can go directly to Mu Heng. She is my very good friend, and Sister Fu can trust her."

Fu Sisi nodded: "Thank you, Xiaqiu."

"My own people don't talk about this." Zhuo Ran said softly, "Is the food okay? The Celestial Master can't eat now. Uncle Zhou will cook the porridge and deliver it in a while."

Fu Sisi said: "Xiaqiu, I..."

"Sister Fu, if you continue to be so polite, I'll leave immediately." Zhuo Ran cut off her words, "Since I said nothing, then sister Fu, don't keep worrying about that matter, I'm fine now."

Fu Sisi nodded: "Okay..."

"Sister Fu," Zhuo Ran said, "What's the situation with you in Gaodu? Liudacheng and Yan Chengxuan were originally on the same side, why did they suddenly turn against each other?"

Fu Sisi said: "After Lord Hou and General Ye Ji left Gaodu, the people in the Six Great Cities gradually revealed their true nature. Yan Chengxuan rearranged the Six Departments, and naturally they were people we were familiar with before. The Six Great Cities knew that Yan Chengxuan was suppressing them. Looking at them, they did not involve political affairs, so they turned their eyes to the direction of the garrison. In fact, Yan Chengxuan had handed over all the city defenses to them, and the boundaries between the six major cities and Gaodu were becoming increasingly unclear. Yan Chengxuan did not let the six The people in Dacheng were separated from the Tianzhou garrison, presumably for this reason, he did not take precautions, and let Wu Xiuting take advantage of the loophole."

Zhuo Ran smiled, and she said: "Yan Chengxuan is spoiled, how can he understand these things. But Wen Rongxi is so smart, why didn't he remind him a little bit, could it be that even Wen Rongxi was instigated?"

"Xiaqiu, do you know that Wen Rongxi..."

Zhuo Ran raised her eyebrows: "What?"

"Wen Rongxi is a modest gentleman after all, but Yan Chengxuan has such thoughts about Mr. Wen. Not to mention whether Wen Rongxi will give him advice, I think Wen Rongxi has a lot of intentions to kill Yan Chengxuan." Fu Sisi said, " Moreover, after Lord Hou left, he imprisoned Wen Rongxi in the palace, and he hasn't released her yet..."

Zhuo Ran said: "Master Hou and I have known about this for a long time. According to Yan Chengxuan's temperament, how could he be willing to let Wen Rongxi worry about other things for him. It's okay now, the matter has come to this point, and Yan Chengxuan has no reason to continue to treat Wen Rongxi. Well, it depends on what Yan Chengxuan and Wen Rongxi plan to do... But Sister Fu, how did you think of going with Yanzhi?"

Fu Sisi said: "At that time, I didn't know what to do. Just me and Tianshi must have no chance of winning. I was thinking of taking a gamble, but I didn't expect that Rouge would coincide with my thoughts. We tried to get in touch and discuss it. I found that Rouge is actually quite good, but it is a pity that the person I met was not a good person..."

Zhuo Ran paused, and said, "Yanzhi, is Yanzhi really dead?"

"Wu Xiuting carried her away at the time, so I had a premonition that something was wrong, but there was nothing I could do. Rouge wanted to die with Wu Xiuting, and she didn't want to live, so she chose that way..." Fu Sisi sighed "She told me before that she wanted me to bury her and her child together, as long as she wasn't in Gaodu, but now that I think about it, I didn't do it..."

"I have met Yan Zhi a few times, she is indeed a good girl, but besides the word regret, I really don't have any words to describe it now." Zhuo Ran said with some melancholy, "Many people just saw Hurry After a few days, there will be no more chances.”

Fu Sisi's words came to her lips, she thought for a while, and finally said: "Xiaqiu, that willow sacrificial wine..."

Zhuo Ran said in a muffled voice: "I know. What happened to you on the way, how could he..."

Fu Sisi slowed down, and said: "Ah Cheng was injured, the situation was up and down along the way, and it rained and snowed for a few days, and Ah Cheng got a fever. We are thinking about finding a family to see if we can find someone else." I came to eat some food, but I didn’t expect to meet a group of bandits and robbers on the way. They robbed our carriage directly. Even if I had Yan Shuihan, it was useless and I was injured. Let’s go further , Liu Jijiu was afraid that Ah Cheng would not be able to survive, so he ran out alone, trying to pawn the only valuable jade pendant on his body to buy some food and medicine, but before he joined us, he was... When we found him , he still protects those things..."

"Who killed him?"

Fu Sisi held back her tears and said: "It should be those bandits. I think his injuries are all heavy blows. They didn't want Liu Jijiu to live at all..."

Zhuo Ran clenched her fingers.She didn't ask Jiang Rulan about the follow-up at that time, because she was afraid that she would be even more sad if she knew the truth, but now she asked Fu Sisi, and after learning about it, she was not as sad as she imagined, but mostly angry and mournful, Zhuo Ran wanted Find those people and avenge Liu Yulin.

But there is no way now.It is impossible for Zhuo Ran to leave Yongzhou to find someone to seek revenge at the scene of their accident.She sighed deeply from the bottom of her heart, and said, "I was thinking about whether we could get together again, how long has it been..."

Fu Sisi took Zhuo Ran's hand and said softly, "Xiaqiu."

I have nothing to say to comfort, and I don't know how to comfort.Zhuo Ran shook her head at her and said, "It's okay, Sister Fu, I'm fine."

"But you don't look very well." Fu Sisi said, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhuo Ran said: "It's just a low fever, sister Fu don't have to worry. You take care of the Celestial Master, I will send a few attendants over in the afternoon, if sister Fu has anything to tell them."

"Then remember to take the medicine." Fu Sisi got up to send Zhuo Ran off, but was stopped by Zhuo Ran.

"I go first."

Wu Song ran out to play for a while, and when he came back, he heard that Li Yuchuan had left. He was a little disappointed, and sat down on the porch in a little frustration, kneading the snow into balls, which became bigger and bigger.

Zhuo Ran walked into the courtyard and said, "Why don't you wear something thicker, your hands are red from the cold."

Wu Song raised his eyes when he heard the words, and looked at Zhuo Ran aggrievedly: "Sister."

Zhuo Ran smiled: "Do you want to build a snowman?"

Wu Song shook his head.

"Go back to the house, it's cold outside." Seeing Wu Song standing up, Zhuo Ran wiped the snow off his clothes for him, "Your master is going back this time because there is a new battle in Beili, and he doesn't want you to meet him." It’s dangerous, so you stay here and don’t worry.”

Wu Song nodded: "Understood."

"Haven't you eaten yet?" Zhuo Ran said softly, "Go to the kitchen and find Yi Ke, and ask him to heat up the food for you."

"it is good."

Zhuo Ran went to Piange and carried Chu Yun to her room.Chu Yun grew up a lot, Zhuo Ran felt a little tired after hugging him for a while, touched his hand, felt very warm, and put him on the bed.

Chu Yun babbled and talked non-stop, Zhuo Ran lay on the bed and said softly, "What are you talking about? Shall I teach you how to speak?"

Chu Yun looked at Zhuo Ran, and reached out to grab Zhuo Ran's braid, Zhuo Ran took his hand: "What should I learn first? Mother and father? Will it be difficult?"

"Ah... um..." Chuyun sat down and began to take off his socks by himself. Zhuo Ran watched his movements quietly, but who knew that Chuyun hugged his feet and sent them to his mouth, Zhuo Ran His eyes widened.

"This can't be eaten," Zhuo Ran gently pulled his hand away, Chu Yun was a little unhappy, and opened his mouth to cry, Zhuo Ran could only let him go, "Okay, as long as you like it."

Chu Yun seemed to be sucking very sweetly, Zhuo Ran shook his head helplessly, and said, "You are a little prince, you still do this, you will be ashamed if you say it."

"Kids are like that."

Zhuo Ran turned his head and saw Mu Heng coming in with a medicine bowl, and said with a smile, "He's one year old, why can't he talk?"

Zhuo Ran straightened up and said, "I don't know either, but isn't it too early to speak at the age of one?"

"It's getting late." Mu Heng handed her the bowl, "Quick, drink it while it's hot."

Zhuo Ran took the medicine bowl with both hands, Mu Heng also sat down by the bed, and Chu Yun crawled towards her.Zhuo Ran stirred the dark brown concoction and said softly, "How is the condition of Tianshi?"

"It's okay, it depends on him whether he wakes up or not, anyway, I tried my best." Mu Heng said, "If he is lucky, he can wake up soon, but if he is unlucky, it's hard to say It's..."

Zhuo Ran sighed helplessly, Mu Heng touched Chu Yun's back, and said, "What's wrong? Don't worry, I won't let him die. You drink the medicine quickly."

Zhuo Ran frowned, swallowed the bitter medicine, tilted his head for a moment before putting down the medicine bowl.Mu Heng narrowed his eyes: "Is it so bad?"

"Then try it yourself." Zhuo Ran licked the corner of his lips, "But speaking of it, Mu Heng, do you know why he keeps drooling?"

Mu Heng raised his eyebrows: "It's normal, won't you know if you give birth to one yourself in the future?"

Zhuo Ran was taken aback for a moment, Mu Heng also paused, and said: "However...you should take care of your body first, and now you and Lord Hou don't think about the child, it's not the right time yet. .”

Zhuo Ran lowered her eyes and said in a deep voice: "In Gaodu, there is a person who is trapped by Nanxiang's identity like me. She could have lived her life peacefully and calmly, but she was involved in these things that have nothing to do with her. In the matter, even... Even if she and the person she likes are barely together, they also have a child, but in the end they end up with two dead bodies, I think, I may also... To be honest, Hou Grandpa also told me about this, and he was also afraid that I would die, so we really have no idea..."

"Xiaqiu," Mu Heng said, "what are you thinking about? Do you not believe me or my master? Let me tell you, although my skills are poor, my master is very powerful. I guarantee that he will If you can be cured, Master Hou will definitely not say that again in the future, maybe after you become the emperor, you will give birth to ten or eight children, and then you can give me one for fun."

Zhuo Ran couldn't help laughing: "You are not serious anymore."

"I'm not serious," Mu Heng said, "I'm telling the truth. Xiaqiu, you will live a long life, you will."

Zhuo Ran just smiled.

Chang Yinyu knocked on the door: "Little Junior Sister, come out quickly! The Celestial Master is awake!"

***
Today, Wu Lianyi and Habayashi Wei are indeed very tired.They used many methods and struggled with a small number of people to deal with the people from the six major cities for a long time, before they finally found the place where He Xiyao and the others were detained.

After Wu Xiuting died, many people returned to Wu Lianyi obediently. Yan Chengxuan and Wen Rongxi were also planning in the palace. With the help of Zisha and Jingshan, they got together with Wu Lianyi smoothly.

Now the palace is surrounded by people from the six major cities, forming a situation where people inside can't get out and people outside can't get in, and it's useless to fight for a long time.

Wu Lianyi sighed, and said, "Six Great Cities have been thinking about this for a long time, we discovered it a bit late."

Wen Rongxi said: "It's not too late. I've been thinking about it since Wuxiuting showed its flaws. Now only He Xiyao, Wang Jitong, and the envoy Pan Wenlei are left in the six departments. The chances of winning, so you have to outsmart it.”

"You mean to rush out of the palace?" Yan Chengxuan frowned slightly, "Yan Shu, if we go out now, it's like hitting an egg against a rock."

Wen Rongxi said: "It doesn't count. After all, the six major cities are the six major cities, and they are not a whole. Sometimes their large number is a disadvantage, so we can make full use of them."

"Want to watch tigers fight across the mountain?" Wu Lianyi raised his eyebrows.

Wen Rongxi nodded slightly: "There is internal strife in their six major cities, and I just want to know where the Tianzhou garrison will stand? They can't form several factions and want to unite and attack the palace."

"But it's not easy?" Yan Chengxuan said, "Those old foxes in the Six Great Cities, especially Marquis Wu, he has lost his beloved son now, and he will look like that in the future. How can we make him suspicious."

Wu Lianyi said: "He...he must have an idea, but it's not certain whether the rest of the people agree or not. So, Mr. Wen has to think about how to do it."

Wen Rongxi thought for a while, and said: "Don't worry, we don't move and they don't dare to act rashly. Taking advantage of this opportunity, let's discuss it carefully. We need... we need to think of a perfect plan."

Yan Chengxuan said: "Yan Shu, I'll leave it to you to think about it. The rest of us are waiting for your good news, but we must be careful."

Wen Rongxi nodded and said, "I will definitely figure out a way at the latest in the day after tomorrow."
