Gu Immortal Returns

"The witch is also my enemy. She was killed a few days ago and will never appear again. You can rest assured."

After hearing what I said, Xiuhe couldn't control it anymore and choked up.

I said to Xiuhe: "Now that the witch is dead, I think your hatred with her is over. I will bring someone with me. Are you willing to go with her?"

Xiuhe looked at me, and I took Xiuhe outside the courtyard.

Zeller is waiting in the courtyard.

When he saw me bringing Xiuhe out, he didn't expect that there was another Gu Immortal hiding in this mansion.

Zeller looked at me, "How could that be?"

"I never thought before that the princess actually hides the Gu Immortal. They are all pitiful people. Let her follow you in the future!"

Zeller said: "Okay, I happen to be going back to the wasteland. Are you willing to go to the wasteland with me?"

Xiuhe nodded, Zeller took out the magic weapon and said to Xiuhe: "Come in!"

Xiuhe turned to look at the room and said, "Thank you princess for your kindness, Xiuhe will never forget it!"

Xiuhe then knelt on the ground, kowtowed towards the room, stood up and flew into Zeller's magic weapon.

Seeing Xiuhe leave, Zeller put away the magic weapon and said

"Don't worry, the princess is fine. If she leaves, she will no longer damage the princess's body. The princess's body will gradually recover."

That afternoon, Zeller left Baiyun City.

After a few days of conditioning, Lingyu's body gradually improved. Now that the miko's matter has been resolved, I can finally live in the sunshine without having to worry about the miko.

A few days later, my brother returned to Baiyun City.

Tell me that Mrs. Xu's health began to improve when the Xu family heard the news about my return, and everyone was very happy.

My brother also knew what happened in Baiyun City after he left.

My brother felt even more sorry for Ling Yu. The day after his brother came back, Ling Yu hosted a banquet at the mansion for the officials and their families from Baiyun City and all nearby towns.

Firstly, it was to celebrate my return, and secondly, it was to celebrate Lingyu's initial recovery from a serious illness.

After the banquet, I stayed with my brother and sister-in-law for a few days, and then my brother allowed me to leave Baiyun City.

The second brother doesn't want to stay in Baiyun City for a long time. Mrs. Xu is very worried about me and will not feel completely at ease until she sees me.

My brother sent someone to see me off in Shengjing.

When I left, I went to see Aunt Bai, the woman who rescued me. Lingyu bought a small yard for Aunt Bai in the city so that Aunt Bai no longer had to live in the woods.

But Aunt Bai was not used to the life in Baiyun City, so she insisted on returning to the woods.

Lingyu did not take back the courtyard and planned to take Aunt Bai back to Baiyun City when she became inconvenient in the future.

Aunt Bai knew that I was leaving. Although she was reluctant to leave, she knew that I did not belong here. She had nothing to give me, so she made me a little bunny made of hay and gave it to me.

After more than ten days of turmoil, I finally returned to Shengjing.

Everyone in the Xu family had received the news a long time ago and came to the gate of Shengjing early in the morning to wait for me.

The elder brother also waited with Zhang Zirou at the door.

I looked away from the carriage and when I saw my brother and Mrs. Xu, tears flooded my sight again.

After two months of separation, it felt like I had been away for several years. Looking at my brother in the distance, I finally felt like I was finally home.

In order to celebrate my return, Mrs. Xu held a banquet in Xu's mansion.

The imperial concubine specially sent jewelry in order to ease the relationship with the Xu family.

Mrs. Xu had all the gifts sent by the adults that day delivered to my room.

From that day on, my world suddenly became quiet, and I still stayed with Mrs. Xu every day as before.

In order to prevent me from being bored in Xu Mansion, my brother sent craftsmen to repair the garden of Xu Mansion and planted many rare plants in the garden.

In the third month after I came back, it was reported that Zhang Zirou was pregnant.

This is a happy event. I prepared good things and had them delivered to Qing'an City.

The elder brother planned to let Zhang Zirou return to the Xu Mansion to have the baby, but Zhang Zirou insisted on staying with his elder brother, so the elder brother had to take care of Zhang Zirou himself.

I am undoubtedly the happiest when Zhang Zirou is pregnant. I happily prepare the things the child needs every day.

I originally thought that the days would pass like this, but I didn’t expect that five years later, the wasteland suddenly attacked Shengjing and took the lead in attacking the border.

Knowing that Qingkong was going to fight the wasteland, Mrs. Xu and I were very worried. As a general of Qingkong, my brother is currently guarding the border and directing the battle with Qingkong.

In the past few days, Mrs. Xu has begun to have trouble eating.

I saw Mrs. Xu being so worried. Over the years in Xu Mansion, I had already treated all the people in Xu Mansion as my closest family members.

How can I feel at ease now that my brother is at war?

Mrs. Xu didn't want to eat, so I stayed with her.

Mrs. Xu was very anxious when she saw that I was not eating. For the sake of my body, we worked hard to eat together.

Because of the war between the two sides, his father, Mr. Xu, was very busy and stayed in the palace all day.

King Qing transported waves of supplies to the Qingkong border.

The elder brother began to raise money with Sheng Hongzhang in several towns in order to allow the elder brother to have sufficient military pay at the border.

Although my brother and the others are not needed now, they are already prepared.

At this time, the prince and King Hui also shook hands and made peace, and began to talk to the outside world in unison.

I feel that the sky in Shengjing has been dark these days. Although this war has not yet affected Shengjing, the people in the city have begun to panic.

I also started to ask Mei Hua to prepare and exchange all the valuable things that others had given me into money and temporarily store them in a safe place, waiting to be able to help my eldest brother when he is in need in the future.

The imperial concubine has not calmed down during this period of time.

She began to secretly contact the important ministers in the court, preparing to get the prince to the battlefield and personally direct the war to boost morale.

When my father was in the court, he heard someone suggesting that the prince should go to the battlefield in person. My father strongly disagreed.

The entire court instantly became a mess.

My mood has been very complicated these past few days. I am worried about the war on the border. I don’t know if I am worrying too much, but I feel uneasy.

This day I suddenly felt a pulling pain in my chest, and my whole face turned pale.

When Mei Hua saw me like this, she immediately went to see the imperial doctor.

Mrs. Xu knew I was sick and became even more anxious. I fell into a coma after lying on the bed that day.

In my dream, I saw a group of several-year-old children in front of me, holding swords in their hands, followed by the children's parents, and they were killing my brother.

These kids were shouting at me from a distance

"Mother, mother--"

I don’t know how long I was in coma. When I woke up, my brother, Zhang Zirou, and my mother were all standing by the bed.

My mother has obviously lost weight. Looking at her eyes that were red from crying, I feel even more guilty.

My mother asked me

"Ruier, you finally woke up, how do you feel?"

I said to my mother

"Don't worry, mother, there's nothing wrong with me."

The imperial doctor came over and said: "Madam, don't worry, Miss has no symptoms of any illness. Maybe she has been too worried during this period."

"How could she be okay? She was in a coma for three days."

The imperial doctor said: "Madam, there is indeed nothing wrong with the young lady's body. On the contrary, she is very healthy. As for why she was unconscious for so long, I need to continue to observe."

My mother said reproachfully: "As an imperial doctor, you can't even detect this symptom. You should go out first!"

After the doctor left, my mother grabbed my hand

"Don't be afraid Rui'er, it's okay!"

I nodded and got up from the bed.

I didn't tell my mother what happened in the dream.

I looked at my brother and Zhang Zirou and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, why are you here? I'm fine, don't worry."

My brother’s face is filled with self-blame

"During this period, I was only busy raising military funds and taking care of your sister-in-law. I didn't have time to see you, so I didn't take good care of you and made you sick."

"Brother, I'm really fine, don't blame yourself."
