Chapter 106 He Must Call Me Dad
Sapphire chose 30 people to accompany him.

Although there are not many people, they are all elite cavalry.

On the battlefield, one counts as ten, and one counts as a hundred.

Jing Yannian led the people away with a resolute gesture.

There was no sign of relaxation on his face.

Taking advantage of the darkness, a group of people left the Great Summer Camp and went away without a sound.

There is only a stream of smoke and dust, slowly falling.

……

When Xiao Yuzhuo woke up, it was already dark.

There is light yellow candlelight in the room, and there is a faint fragrance of pine wood.

The maids walk and talk softly.

Perhaps because she was afraid of disturbing her rest, the newborn baby was not by her side.

Xiao Yuzhuo pressed the head of the bed and sat up slowly, "Mei Xiang."

As soon as she opened her mouth, she was shocked, her voice was too hoarse.

A slender figure is reflected on the screen separating the inside and the outside.

"Bamboo fragrance?" Xiao Yuzhuo called out again.

Zhuxiang and Meixiang didn't hear it.

But there was the sound of footsteps hastily turning around the screen.

Xiao Yuzhuo looked at the slender figure beside the screen in astonishment.

The man also looked at her deeply, "You, wake up."

His voice was deep, with an indescribable charm, full of too complicated emotions.

Xiao Yuzhuo grinned at him, "It's so late, why is Prince Yue still here?"

Li Tai's face sank, "I'll take a look at my son."

"Your son?" Xiao Yuzhuo raised his eyebrows, only then did he see that he was indeed holding a small baby in his wide sleeves.

"Being kind is not as good as raising him. If I raise him, shouldn't he call me daddy?"

Li Tai walked forward slowly while speaking, and bent down beside the bed.

"Let me see." Xiao Yuzhuo reached out to take the child, but Li Tai avoided it.

Xiao Yuzhuo looked at him suspiciously.

"The midwife said, you shouldn't sit for a long time now, and you shouldn't be tired. You just woke up, so you'd better lie down." Li Tai smiled and hugged the swaddling baby tightly.

"My lady is awake?" Zhu Xiang and Mei Xiang looked around the screen.

"Madam, drink some ginseng soup to nourish your body?" Ju Xiang came forward with a lacquer plate.

King Yue took a step aside with his baby in his arms.

Both Mei Xiang and Zhu Xiang looked at him with piercing eyes, as if they wanted to go forward to grab the swaddling baby, but they didn't dare to do it.

"Don't dare to bother the lord, why don't you ask the lord to hand over the child to my maid?" Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly after holding the bowl.

"Holding your own child, how can it be troublesome?" Li Tai squinted and smiled, looking down at the little face in his arms that was not as big as a fist.

Xiao Yuzhuo laughed, "The prince has many concubines, if you are in need of a child, you can do it yourself, why should you hold other people's child and not let go?"

Li Tai's face sank.

"I have already thought of a name for him. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, so his nickname is Chongwu, Jing Chongwu." Xiao Yuzhuo said with a smile.

Li Tai frowned.

Zhuxiang hurriedly stepped forward to snatch the child.

Li Tai dodged away, "Hands and feet, and hurt the child again."

Xiao Yuzhuo held the ginseng soup, but looked at Li Tai intently.

"I have ordered someone to go to Wancheng to find a nanny. The nanny will arrive tonight, or tomorrow morning at the latest. You don't have to take care of the child..."

"His Royal Highness King Yue!" Xiao Yuzhuo interrupted him before he finished speaking.

She was clearly smiling, but her eyes were extremely cold, "When I gave birth to this child, I almost died, but now this child is my life, if His Highness wants to take this child away from me..."

She stopped talking with a smile.

For the rest, I believe that if she doesn't say anything, King Yue will understand.

King Yue looked down at the baby in his arms.

He couldn't help frowning.

Everyone in the room was deadlocked, as if no one wanted to take a step back.

After a long time, King Yue sighed softly, "I was too hasty."

He suddenly turned around and walked outside.

Xiao Yuzhuo's master and servant were taken aback.

Zhuxiang rushed forward even more violently, following him step by step.

But he turned around and went outside, placing the child on the newly made pine rocker.

He stretched out his hand to tease the child, and left without hesitation.

Zhu Xiang and Mei Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and together they carried the pine shaker into the inner room and placed it beside Xiao Yuzhuo's bed.

Xiao Yuzhuo gulped down the ginseng soup, leaned on the railing of the shaker, and looked at the little people inside.

"Lie down quickly, the lady can't sit for a long time." Ju Xiang urged.

Xiao Yuzhuo's lower body was still hurting, she didn't force herself, and lay down with a smile.

"Little Shizi is so pretty!" Mei Xiang lay on the side, looking at the little man on the bed.

Xiao Yuzhuo reached out and poked his red face, "What's so good about it? It's wrinkled. Chongwu, you finally met Auntie, but your father is not here..."

There was silence in the room.

The maids all lowered their heads.

When the wife is having a difficult delivery, it is really a matter of life and death.

If it wasn't for looking forward to seeing their children, if Juxiang hadn't said the name of the general in the lady's ear over and over again, I wonder if the lady would still have the courage to persevere?

Now mother and child are safe, but the general is thousands of miles away.

……

Jing Yannian wears the stars and wears the moon, riding his horse and galloping wildly.

There seemed to be a voice in my heart, urging him over and over again, hurry up, hurry up!

He promised Yuyu, how could he break his promise to her?

He still remembered that when he left Chang'an, she was smiling like a flower, but under her calm face was a faint fragility.

She is also a first-time mother, and she said she would be terrified.

At this time, as a husband, how could he not be by her side?
Jing Yannian was so anxious that he whipped the horse's back.

Suddenly, the horse neighed terribly.

The horse under Jing Yannian suddenly fell forward.

The horse's speed was originally fast, but the horse stopped suddenly, and his body was thrown out despite inertia.

"General..."

There was a panicked voice behind him, followed by more hissing.

Although Jing Yannian was thrown out, he rolled and stood up.

Before he could stand still, many feathered arrows shot from both sides.

He immediately drew his knife out of its sheath.

dang dang...

In the night, the invisible feather arrows seemed to be extremely dense.

He only brought twenty or thirty guards.

And the horses under them at this time were injured by the bridle rope.

Feathered arrows flew towards him, and the guards who couldn't dodge were injured.

Jing Yannian's saber technique was so fast that he was unscathed in the dense rain of arrows.

But his guards were not as relaxed as him.

Jing Yannian was anxious and wanted to turn around to save others.

Suddenly, a strange fragrance came to the nostrils.

Jing Yannian felt bad and immediately held his breath, but his movements were still slightly hindered by the strange fragrance.

puff--

A feathered arrow pierced through his right shoulder.

His right hand was in severe pain, and the long knife in his hand almost fell out.

He immediately switched the knife from his right hand to his left.

"Show the signal flare!" Jing Yannian ordered, and stood in front of a guard.

The guard quickly took out the signal flare from his pocket.

Bang - bang.

A beam of red light illuminates the quiet but menacing night sky at this time.

Taking advantage of the light of the flare, Jing Yannian quickly scanned his surroundings.

In the woodland beside the road, there are several points of cold light flickering.

Jing Yannian suddenly flew up in one direction.

"withdraw!"

He heard the man hidden in the forest say.

He curled the corner of his mouth coldly, but he flew up, and his left hand was as proficient with the sword as his right hand.

He kicked the man to the ground with a flying kick, and the knife was placed on the man's neck instead.

That person probably never thought that he would have such responsiveness in the dark.

"Savior!" cried the forest man.

The man captured by Jing Yannian slapped Jing Yannian's injured right shoulder fiercely.

Jing Yannian was in pain, and sweat broke out, but he grabbed the man even tighter with his backhand.

"After being hit by an arrow and receiving the fragrance, how can you still be so powerful? Who are you?" The man caught by him turned to ask him.

Jing Yannian rolled his eyes.

He originally thought that there was a spy by his side... Was it a mistake?
His knife was on the man's neck.

The sneak attackers in the forest seemed to be afraid and did not dare to act rashly.

The man wanted to get out, and repeatedly attacked Jing Yannian's injured right arm, but Jing Yannian remained unmoved.

I was entangled with my kung fu for a while, and suddenly I heard the sound of horseshoes all around.

Jing Yannian's expression relaxed.

"Rescue is here!" His guard whispered.

Jing Yannian's expression was relaxed, his eyes darkened, and he fell backwards.

When he fell down, he saw Sapphire riding on a horse, directing reinforcements to surround him.

"General? General!" Lan Yu galloped forward and helped Jing Yannian onto his horse.

"Don't let any one go!" Sapphire ordered in a deep voice.

Jing Yannian was brought back to the army.

Liao Changsheng, who was waiting in the barracks, heard that Lan Yu had returned, and hurriedly greeted him.

"But the general..."

Lan Yu hummed, and asked the two guards to quickly send Jing Yannian into the commander's tent.

"Don't leak the news. If the army knows that the commander is injured, it will definitely mess up the morale of the army." Lan Yu ordered, "If the Turkic people know, it will be even worse."

The two guards bowed their hands and retreated.

Lan Yu cut Jing Yannian's clothes with a knife, revealing the arrow wound.

But he saw that the blood around the arrow wound had turned black, even the skin and flesh were black.

"No, this is..." Liao Changsheng frowned, "The feather arrow has been poisoned!"

Sapphire immediately pressed several big acupuncture points on Jing Yannian's body.

"Sealing the bloodline will give us some time to find an antidote." Lan Yu pushed Liao Changsheng away and walked out.

Liao Changsheng blamed himself endlessly.

If he hadn't been unable to withstand the pressure and rushed to the Western Regions to tell the general about Chang'an City, the general would not...

……

Xiao Yuzhuo suddenly sat up in shock.

She gasped heavily.

Sunlight leaked in from the window, falling on her fair face.

She still had a panicked look on her face.

She quickly turned her head to look around.

"Lady, what's the matter? Did you have a nightmare?" Ju Xiang was bending over beside the shaker, looking at her in astonishment.

Xiao Yuzhuo couldn't wake up from the nightmare for a while.

She saw Jing Yannian in her dream.

He ran towards her as hard as he could, but his body was covered in blood.

She failed to hold his hand, and watched herself being driven further and further away from him by a carriage.

He finally fell powerlessly in a pool of blood.

Seeing that her expression was wrong, Ju Xiang hurriedly knelt and sat beside the bed, "My lady? My lady?"

She held Xiao Yuzhuo's hand, and it was only when her palm warmed that she came back to her senses, "Uh, it's a nightmare, is there any news from Chang'an?"

Ju Xiang glanced at Xiao Yuzhuo, "Is the lady worried about the general?"

Xiao Yuzhuo pursed his lips and smiled, "I know, he must be fine."

"The servant girl told Mei Xiang to inquire about it." Ju Xiang said in a low voice.

Xiao Yuzhuo smiled, but did not refuse.

Ju Xiang retreated, and now only she and the little figure on the shaker were left in the room.

"Chongwu, Aniang's little Chongwu, Aniang has dreamed about your father, and I don't know when I will meet him again." Xiao Yuzhuo lay down again, facing the cradle sideways.

The person on the cradle was covered with something behind him, lying on his side facing her.

"Chongwu, Auntie said that you will not be bullied and looked down upon like your father was when you were a child...Did Aunt not do a good job?"

The little man moved his mouth, as if sucking milk.

Xiao Yuzhuo frowned, and looked down at himself.

She got up suddenly, carried Chong Wu on the rocker onto the big bed, lifted up her clothes, and lay on her side on the bed.

She wiped it with a handkerchief, and tentatively brought it to Xiao Chongwu's mouth.

Almost instinctively, Xiao Chongwu immediately opened his mouth and arched it forward, one by one, like a small fish.

Xiao Yuzhuo was a little anxious.

In her two lives, she has no experience as a mother. She doesn't know whether she should support Xiao Chongwu's head or what to do.

Xiao Chongwu was also in a hurry, and when he couldn't eat, he screamed anxiously.

"Auntie is inexperienced, don't worry..." Xiao Yuzhuo was sweating profusely, pushing himself forward.

"what are you doing?!"

A loud drink.

Xiao Yuzhuo was taken aback.

Little Chongwu immediately opened his mouth and burst into tears.

Xiao Yuzhuo raised his head and saw Li Tai staring at the screen.

Xiao Yuzhuo saw that his slightly frozen eyes were falling on her.

She looked down, grabbed a pillow and threw it at Li Tai.
