Hand Medicine Fragrance

Chapter 265
"Bah," Zhao Yuanzhen hurriedly put the jujube tea to her mouth, "gargle, it's Chinese New Year, what are you talking about?"
After speaking, he slapped his mouth, turned his face and rinsed his mouth with tea soup.
Chai Sujin drank the jujube tea with a smile, "I don't mind it, but you care about it?"
"Naturally, I have to worry about it. Now that my son is on your body, how can I be careless?" Zhao Yuanzhen said.
Chai Sujin chuckled, "It's only been a month, what does he know?"
"It's only been a month..." Zhao Yuanzhen sighed, stretched out his hand to hold Chai Sujin's hand tightly, and fixed his eyes on her, as if he wanted to engrave her in his eyes.
"What is this for?" Chai Sujin asked with a smile.
Zhao Yuanzhen sighed softly, "It's only been a month, but I want to leave you. I heard that a woman is pregnant in October. It's very hard, but I...can't stay by your side and let you go through it alone. You...will blame me ?”
Chai Sujin shook her head repeatedly.
"Even if you don't blame me, how can my son not blame me?" Zhao Yuanzhen sighed.
"If you come back victorious, he won't blame you. Not only will he not blame you, but he will also be proud of having such a powerful father." Chai Sujin said.
Zhao Yuanzhen nodded, "It's inevitable, but thinking about separation, thinking that I can't be by your side when you need it, I don't even know if I can see my son's birth with my own eyes..."
"Don't think about it so much," Chai Sujin raised his hand and caressed his handsome and unparalleled cheeks, "You know we are here, waiting for you to come back, waiting happily for you to take us into the house, that's good gone."
Zhao Yuanzhen lowered his eyes, lowered his head and kissed her smooth forehead, and then moved down the bridge of her nose to enclose her lips.
Her lips are moist, with an intoxicating mellow fragrance.
"People who are concerned are happy, and I am happy." Zhao Yuanzhen said slowly in her ear.
"Why am I not? My child and I are also the happiest." Chai Sujin murmured, "The current separation is just for the sake of being able to stay together forever in the future, so that no one will be able to separate us in the future."
"Yes, I will do my best to come back as soon as possible." He held her tightly in his arms.
Chai Sujin shook her head, "No, I want you to do everything you can to return safely and triumphantly."
After the New Year's Eve banquet, Princess Changming and Duke Ding never appeared in front of people again.
Ding Guogong didn't even return to his own Duke's Mansion, and stayed in the Princess Mansion every day.
Even the maids around the princess couldn't help complaining that they were going to panic when the Duke was here.Almost everything about the princess is taken care of by the Duke.
The princess wants to drink tea, and the Duke cooks it himself.The princess wants to go for a walk, and Duke Ye personally supports her.The princess wants to rest, and the Duke personally takes care of changing clothes...
The princess could hardly leave the Duke's sight for a moment.
During the annual vacation, the imperial court had nothing to do, even if there were some urgent matters, the Duke of the State also moved to the Princess Mansion to take care of them.
Now Ruan Qing is very familiar with the roads of the princess mansion, entering and leaving is like being in the Duke's mansion.
"The Holy Majesty said that you can marry my sister only after you defeat Ma Wenzhao and drive away the Chu army!" Brother Xuan yelled when he saw Zhao Yuanzhen, "Didn't the Holy Majesty tell you to move to the Princess Mansion? of!"
Zhao Yuanzhen nodded, "Brother Xuan taught me the lesson."
Brother Xuan couldn't help but tremble with a humble attitude, and looked up and down suspiciously at him with wide-eyed eyes.
When I saw him before, I just thought he was extremely cold and serious.
Looking at him now, it is clear that he is still unsmiling, why does he feel so different from before?
"Then you... why don't you hurry up? Staying here is an eyesore..." Brother Xuan's words were not polite, but his tone was obviously weaker.
Zhao Yuanzhen nodded, "Leave after I finish reading for Yuanchu."
"Yuanchu? Who is Yuanchu?" Brother Xuan looked around.
The maids gave him winks one after another, looking at the princess' belly.
Brother Xuan frowned slightly, was suspicious for a moment, and shouted loudly: "Yuanchu? My nephew's name is Yuanchu?"
"Keep your voice down!" Chai Sujin rubbed her ears, "I'm not deaf, it's just my baby name."
Brother Xuan nodded, with astonishment still on his face, "At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, it sounded like a boy's name, what if it was a girl's name?"
The maids frowned at her one after another.
But Zhao Yuanzhen interjected: "It was originally a baby name for girls. I just hope that there will be a daughter first, so that someone who can be called a father will love her well."
Brother Xuan rolled his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Shhh! Read it quickly, and leave when you finish reading!"
Zhao Yuanzhen really moved a little bit, and sat beside Chai Sujin, holding a book of gossip and miscellaneous notes, reading in a slow tone.
His voice is very nice, even brother Xuan who doesn't like him calms down for no reason and listens to his soft voice.
Seemingly tireless, he read one book and changed another.But he didn't say anything about leaving.
Until brother Xuan couldn't sit still, he was still reading.
"Is it over?" Brother Xuan stared.
"For a long time in the future, I won't be able to stay by their mother and daughter's side, so now I will spend more time with them before they leave Beijing." Zhao Yuanzhen said slowly with lowered eyes.
He is such a cold and hard person, what he said is indeed a bit of pleading.
Brother Xuan's heart was sour, and he felt a little guilty, "Then...then you read it, I, I will come to see my sister some other day."
Brother Xuan walks away with his hands behind his back.
Only then did Zhao Yuanzhen put down the book, and held Chai Sujin's hand affectionately.
Chai Sujin looked at him helplessly and shook her head.
Brother Xuan came out of the princess mansion, and said with emotion to the young servant beside him: "I really can't see that such a cold person surnamed Zhao has such a tender side. With such a delicate mind, he knows that before leaving The child in my sister's womb reads books, which is really rare."
The young man was leading the horse, startled, and paused in his steps.
"What? Didn't expect it?" Brother Xuan kicked him lightly.
The boy scratched his head, "It's too early to start reading now, isn't it?"
Brother Xuan was taken aback, "That's right, it's only been a month now, so the baby hasn't formed yet in the womb, right? It's strange to hear him reading!"
The little servant chuckled, pursed his lips and remained silent.
"You're fooling me! This guy!" Brother Xuan turned his head and complained in the direction of the Princess Mansion, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
She can carefully observe his mood, knowing that he doesn't like him, but she doesn't want her sister to be in trouble, so she leans down to resolve the unpleasant conflict with her brother-in-law, just to make her happy and at ease.
Such a man shouldn't be too bad, right?
Maybe killing his sister in the previous life was really not what he wanted... Maybe he was too prejudiced because he didn't want to see him all the time?
Brother Xuan sat on the horse and let out a long breath.
Since my sister has done this for him, what reason do I have for not accepting him?
Zhao Yuanzhen stayed in the Princess Mansion until the Shangyuan Festival.
After New Year's Eve, the Holy Majesty imprisoned the envoy of Chu State, and this attitude has already been expressed.
The troops stationed around the capital were also reorganized, and part of them were dispatched to follow Zhao Yuanzhen to the border after the fifteenth day.
The day of parting is approaching day by day.
But in the princess mansion, everything is as usual.
In the morning and evening, you can see a couple walking hand in hand.
The white snow and the red plums are all a little warmer and warmer by the reflection of this pair of Bi people.
The Princess Mansion seems to be an independent existence in the world, it does not welcome guests, and visiting relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year is all abandoned by the Princess Mansion.
The bustle of the outer courtyard, the housekeeper's wife alone dealt with the courtesies of the Princess Mansion, and did not dare to disturb the inner courtyard with these matters.
Neither of them mentioned it clearly, and they clearly avoided the matter of parting on purpose.
But on the day of Shangyuan Festival, the atmosphere between the two became inexplicably sad.
"I made a rabbit lamp." Zhao Yuanzhen said, "Although it is not as good as those sold by craftsmen, the rabbits painted on it are lifelike. Yuanchu will definitely like it."
"How could anyone praise himself like that?" Chai Sujin smiled and shook his head, "He didn't say he liked it."
"Look, I'm going to save this lamp until after he is born, and I'll ask him in person, I'm sure he likes it." Zhao Yuanzhen said seriously.
Chai Sujin nodded, "Why don't you do it every year? It can't be said that the more you do it, the better, he will really like it?"
"This one has a different meaning. It is the first one I made for him. Although he is still in the womb and cannot be seen yet, this lamp will guard him." Zhao Yuanzhen said.
The voice fell to the ground, and there was a sudden silence between the two.
Rabbit Lantern will watch over his son and his wife for him when he is not around.
Parting is unavoidable after all.
Chai Sujin hurriedly lowered her head, her vision blurred involuntarily.
Zhao Yuanzhen stepped forward, hooked her chin, and raised her head.He put his rough hand on her cheek and wiped away the tears on her face, "Don't cry, I will be back soon."
Chai Sujin shook her head, "Who is crying? Sand got in the eyes!"
Zhao Yuanzhen nodded, "Yes, the curtains of the gauze cabinets in the Princess Mansion should be replaced! The sand was blown in!"
Chai Sujin raised her hand to beat him.
Zhao Yuanzhen took her hand gently, "Protect yourself, I will keep Ruan Qing in the capital, you can use him with confidence."
"Take him with you. When you are going on an expedition, it is most important to have someone trustworthy by your side." Chai Sujin shook her head and said, "I am in the capital, what will happen? Brother Xuan, my cousin, the Holy Majesty is in the capital."
Zhao Yuanzhen shook his head, "I can't stay by your side personally, letting my cronies stay and guard you is the only thing I can do for you."
He didn't say, don't refuse.
But it was all in his eyes.
Chai Sujin could only nod, "Okay."
"Tomorrow..." Zhao Yuanzhen said, then stopped talking.
These days of staying together, these few days of being inseparable, it seems that both of them are used to it.
Tomorrow he will go to the place outside the capital to garrison troops, and lead the soldiers and horses sent to him by the Holy Majesty to go to the frontier in person.
Maybe there will be a delay of two days in the place where the troops are stationed, but he will not be able to come back after leaving the capital, so he must quietly rush to the border as quickly as possible.
After such a farewell, the return date has not yet expired.
This life has gone through hardships, and the two of them seem to have experienced too many twists and turns to be able to stay together.
Although they have not been together for a long time, only more than ten days, it seems that they have been together for a lifetime, and the feeling of staying together has been melted into the bones, but now they want to separate each other from the bones.
"Are you leaving tomorrow?" Chai Sujin asked with downcast eyes.
She didn't dare to look at him, for fear that she would cry if she saw him.
"You are not a crying person. I have never seen you shed a few tears in my previous life." Zhao Yuanzhen said softly, "Don't cry now, so as not to make Yuanchu worry about mother. Who said that the short separation now is just To stay together in the future?"
Chai Sujin nodded, "I know, it's just to do what you should do. Now that you do it, you will have expectations in the future. I know..."
Zhao Yuanzhen held her tightly in his arms, "I will come back as soon as possible..."
Chai Sujin replied sullenly, "Don't forget to promise me."
……
He put his arms around her, reciting her favorite poems, and coaxed her to sleep.
She has been tossing and turning in his arms, unable to sleep soundly for a long time.
The sky seemed to be almost dawn, and the servant girl's anxious footsteps came and went back and forth outside the window.
Chai Sujin didn't move for a while, she seemed to be fast asleep.
Zhao Yuanzhen leaned down slowly, and planted his hot and attached kiss on her cheek, forehead, and lips.
He turned over, stood beside the bed, and took another deep look at her.
The door squeaked softly.
A gust of cold air blew in, and was quickly blocked out.
"Master, Ruan Qing has been waiting in the outer courtyard for more than half an hour." The servant girl hurried forward and said in a low voice.
The footsteps hurried away.
Chai Sujin, who was fast asleep on the bed, suddenly opened her eyes.
She jumped out of bed barefoot, quickly came to the window, and stretched out her hand to push the window open.
The cold wind was blowing into the warm room, she couldn't help shivering, but her eyes were looking at the neat and quiet path in the courtyard.
It was not yet bright, and the lights under the porch cast shadows on the path.
The bare branches cast long shadows on the road, but the tall and tall figure had long since disappeared.
"Princess, are you awake?" The servant girl hurried forward, "Duke Ding just left..."
Chai Sujin waved her hand, "I know, it's okay, I just took a look..."
"Princess, it's cold outside. When Duke Ding left, he told the maidservants not to wake you up." The servant girl whispered.
Chai Sujin's fair cheeks were a little red from the wind, and her hands fell on her flat stomach, where she could not feel anything yet, but a new life was pregnant.
Originally, he shouldn't have been asked to come to this world at this time. Although his parents both have incomparably noble identities, he should have come here in an upright manner, instead of bearing the bad reputation of being unmarried and pregnant...
"I'm sorry..." Chai Sujin murmured.
"What is the princess' order?" The servant girl hurriedly stepped forward.
Chai Sujin shook her head, "I wrote a list of medicinal materials and sent it to Ji Xiang, saying that I want to use it, the sooner the better."
"What time?" The servant girl looked at the sky suspiciously, it was still early before dawn.
"Yes, send it right away, I think my cousin won't be too lazy to get up now." After Chai Sujin finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the table.
The servant girl hurried in, closed the window, and stood beside the table.
Chai Sujin handed over a few pages of paper that had been folded and stuffed into the envelope, "If my cousin has any questions, tell him to ask me."
The servant girl backed away.
Chai Sujin looked at the door curtain that the maid opened and lowered.
It seemed that Zhao Yuanzhen was outside the door, just like every morning in the past.The first time she woke up, she could see his figure.
He personally blew the soup cold, held the porcelain spoon in his slender hands, and fed her himself...
He personally tested the temperature of the water, wiped her face and washed herself...
There was a crackling sound in the charcoal basin, and Chai Sujin came to her senses, the door curtain had fallen, but the figure of that person could no longer be seen.
How can this be good?
He just left, and he hasn't even left the capital yet, right?She has already begun to miss it so much.
"Come here, please come, Uncle Zhaolian." Chai Sujin ordered.
The servant girl hurried in, "Princess, it's still early, Uncle Zhaolian..."
"Cousin is diligent, brother Xuan may still be asleep," Chai Sujin shook his head, "Forget it, bring me the recipes for the past few days."
"The meals are all arranged by the princess herself," the servant girl said in a low voice.
Chai Sujin nodded, "I still need to adjust, my taste has changed suddenly, I want to eat something else."
The servant girl hurriedly retreated.
Chai Sujin took a deep breath, she wanted to make herself busy, more busy, so that she would have no time to miss...
The sky was bright, and Ji Bocai rushed to the Princess Mansion in a hurry.
"Did you sleep well last night?" Ji Bocai asked with a smile.
Chai Sujin asked him to sit down, ordered someone to serve tea, nodded and said, "Very good."
But Ji Bocai's eyes fell on the ashes in her eyes, he smiled and took the tea served by the maid, and did not expose her, "The list of medicinal materials that my cousin asked someone to send, the amount of medicine is not small, what is it for? use?"
Chai Sujin waved her hand to tell the waiters to leave.
The door of the hall was open, and she and Ji Bocai could be seen sitting opposite each other at a short distance from the outside, but they couldn't hear what they were talking about.
"Although the war with Chu has not yet begun, we must make all-out preparations. It is still unknown what role the Shu State will play in this battle, but it is an indisputable fact that Shu and Chu have close ties." Chai Sujin Said, "No matter who the enemy is for my Da Zhou, this battle can only be won, not lost."
Ji Bocai nodded heavily, "Exactly, so this medicinal material is prepared for making 'Yangyuan Pill'?"
Chai Sujin nodded, "That's right."
Ji Bocai frowned slightly, remained silent for a while, and just stared at her silently.
"What concerns does my cousin have, why don't you just tell me?" Chai Sujin asked.
Ji Bocai breathed out slowly, "If I hadn't seen and experienced the miraculous effects of Yangyuan Pill with my own eyes, I would never have believed it. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is a magic medicine."
"It's not that magical." Chai Sujin shook her head.
"It's so miraculous. Not only do I think so, but even the Holy Majesty, Duke Ding, and the military doctors in the barracks at that time thought so. My cousin thinks that the reverence for the princess in the civilian army is groundless. Is it? In private, one or two people said that if there is no princess, the Holy Majesty will have twice as many soldiers and horses, and he may not be able to win." Ji Bocai said in a deep voice, "Yu Zhende has discovered it later, and he is thinking about Yangyuan Pill , but Liang Si and him have their own opinions, and did not hand over the Yangyuan Pill to him."
Chai Sujin lowered her eyes and listened quietly.
"Since Yu Zhende can find out, what about others?" Ji Bocai asked.
Chai Sujin looked up at him, "What happened to the others?"
"Why did the state of Chu propose Hebi and Chengchi to marry his cousin? Is it really because Ma Wenzhao likes his cousin's personal affair?" Ji Bocai said slowly.
"This is just an excuse. Of course he wants to start a war so that he can plunder benefits from Da Zhou." Chai Sujin said.
Ji Bocai shook his head slightly, "The benefits of plundering are true, but there is no need to rush to plunder the benefits at this moment. The Great Zhou has just stabilized and cannot withstand the chaos of war. Isn't Chu the same? Even with the help of Shu, the recovery of people's livelihood is even better. Hurry up, but the new regime has just been established. At this time, a wise person should vigorously develop his own national strength. Why did he take the initiative to start a war?"
Chai Sujin frowned.
Ji Bocai's gaze fell deeply on her.
"For... me?" Chai Sujin frowned.
Ji Bocai nodded, "That's right, it's really for my cousin. In order to win my cousin as queen, he really prepared four cities. The people of Chu are not lying."
Chai Sujin groaned, "Do you really want to give it?"
"Yes, Ma Wenzhao has a very long-term vision. He has an old friendship with his cousin. Perhaps in his heart, his cousin is indeed someone he can't let go of. The cousin has such amazing medical skills, which makes him flock to her. Wait until My cousin has really become his queen, and he and my cousin are our own people. At that time, if we go on a campaign, with the help of my cousin, I will be invincible." Ji Bocai analyzed with downcast eyes.
Chai Sujin laughed, "I'm so powerful, and I don't even know it?"
"Chu's army has been assembled at the border, why has it been reluctant to do it? It also needs a lot of military supplies to station troops on the border, and Ma Wenzhao is not stupid," Ji Bocai asked, "Why did he do such a stupid thing?"
"Because... he doesn't want to really start a war at all?" Chai Sujin interjected, "The reason why he has a large army is just to exert pressure, so that the Holy Majesty will give in?"
Ji Bocai nodded again and again, "In the final analysis, his purpose is still his cousin. To get her."
Chai Sujin raised her hand to support her abdomen, pursed her lips and smiled, there was a kind of maternal radiance on her beautiful face, "Then he made a mistake, he probably forgot that there is a saying that is better to be broken than to be whole."
Ji Bocai's gaze followed her hand and landed on her stomach, "Yes, he probably never thought that his cousin would make such a move, and would not hesitate to use himself as a pawn to fight against him."
Chai Sujin licked her lips, "So, my cousin will help me prepare these herbs, right?"
Ji Bocai sighed softly, "I've said so much, but you still don't understand?"
"I understand, what my cousin means is that when I made the Yangyuan Pill earlier, I have attracted the attention of all parties and made up my mind. Now I should keep a low profile and disappear in the capital, and disappear in the princess's eyes." Under the halo." Chai Sujin smiled, "The so-called big tree attracts the wind, my cousin is doing it for my own good and thinking of me."
"After Liang Yue reminded me, I told my majesty to block all news about Yangyuan Pill, and no one was allowed to talk about it anywhere." Ji Bocai raised his eyes, and there was a distant reflection of her in his eyes, " Now, don't get caught up in the fire."
He shook his head slightly, his face full of disapproval.
Chai Sujin smiled, "Cousin is missing something."
Ji Bocai looked at her with raised eyebrows.
"Now that Da Zhou is going to fight, the result is the most important thing. In order to win in the end, no matter how big the risk is, it is worth it. How can there be eggs under the so-called full nest? If I lose the battle, I must be the fish of others. Only Only by winning can Da Zhou be his own master. Only then can I be my own master." Chai Sujin said with a smile.
Ji Bocai pursed his thin lips, and didn't speak again for a long while.
"My cousin won't understand this truth. I'm talking too much when I say it. My cousin is worried about me, I understand." Chai Sujin said softly, "Thank you, cousin. Brother Zhen is at the border. I am fighting, and I am in the capital, so I can only do my best for him. I also ask my cousin to put the overall situation first and help me a lot."
Ji Bocai's face was clear, no smile could be seen, and he sat for a while, then he stood up suddenly.
"Since my cousin has already thought it through, let's do as my cousin wants."
After he finished speaking, he bowed his hands and turned away.
Chai Sujin looked at his leaving figure in astonishment, and curiously asked the maid who walked in, "Why do I feel that my cousin is a little angry? Do you think so?"
The maids didn't dare to talk, and changed the topic happily.
"Earlier, the princess ordered that Uncle Zhao Lian should be invited. Now that the sky is bright, Uncle Zhao Lian must have already got up, but do you still want to invite him?" the servant girl asked beside Chai Sujin.
Chai Sujin nodded, "Cousin has already agreed, the prime minister will come forward, and the procurement of medicinal materials will not be a problem, then the next preparations will start. Go invite Uncle Zhao Lian, there are still many things to tell him to do."
The maid hurriedly bowed and retreated.
But when Brother Xuan came, it was already noon.
"Is the Princess Mansion far from the Earl's Mansion? Why do you want to come here, and it will take a long time?" Chai Sujin looked at him and asked.
Brother Xuan took off his cloak, threw it aside, pouted, his face full of displeasure.
"Who messed with you?" Chai Sujin frowned slightly, "Duke Ding is no longer in the capital? Who are you having trouble with?"
"Still talking! It's because of him!" Brother Xuan immediately stared.
Chai Sujin was slightly surprised, "Can he still mess with you when he's gone?"
Brother Xuan snorted heavily, "It was agreed earlier that I will help him when he goes to the front to fight. Didn't the Holy Majesty say that I have no experience in leading troops to fight? Isn't experience cultivated slowly? Now Good opportunity, I know he is powerful, if I learn more from him, won't I have experience?"
He rolled his eyes, leaned on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, displeased all over his body.
Chai Sujin was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "So you want to go to the border with him?"
Brother Xuan took a quick look at Chai Sujin, "Sister, you don't have to worry. It's okay if I go to the border. This is my brother-in-law, and my master is there. I won't be in any danger."
"Nonsense!" Chai Sujin scolded coldly.
Brother Xuan's face immediately sank, "Why are you just messing around..."
"It is precisely because of your relationship with Ma Wenzhao that you cannot be asked to go to the frontier," Chai Sujin said.
Brother Xuan quickly jumped up from the chair, "Is my sister still afraid that I will betray Da Zhou? Are you still worried that I will stand with Ma Wenzhao? Am I stupid?"
"Have you forgotten what you said just now? Tell me, this is your brother-in-law, and the other is your master!" Chai Sujin's voice was also full of coldness.
It is rare for the siblings to be so cold-eyed.
Brother Xuan pouted and stared at her, "That's what I said, but so what? Could it be that I don't care about my sister and the child in my sister's womb, but instead help Ma Wenzhao?"
"Since you won't help him, will he care about your old relationship? If you fall into his hands, how will you tell Zhao Yuanzhen to deal with yourself? How will you tell me to deal with myself?" Chai Sujin asked.
Brother Xuan frowned and pursed his lips, panting heavily, and clenched his two fists hanging by his sides tightly.
"You don't have to be angry," Chai Sujin slowed down, "The way to help Da Zhou fight against the intruders is not just to go to the front line to kill. Now there is a place that needs your help. If you can do it well , is also a great achievement.”
"I'm not doing it for fame and fortune! I'm just doing it to increase my knowledge and experience, so that people won't say that I got the status of earl for nothing because of my sister..." Brother Xuan muttered softly.
There was still anger on his face, and his cheeks flushed even more amidst the muttering.
Chai Sujin sighed slowly, "It turns out that the crux is here..."
Brother Xuan shook his head, "No... sister, don't think too much, I..."
Chai Sujin nodded again and again, "I understand, this is your pride as a man at work, right? When you want others to mention Zhao Lianbo, they give you a thumbs up to praise your ability. You don't want to call People say, you are just a spoiled dude who relies on nepotism."
Brother Xuan blushed and did not speak.
Chai Sujin sighed softly, "It's a good thing that you have grown up. It's also a good thing to have such a competitive heart. Our parents in heaven are also relieved to see you now."
"I'm afraid I can't be relieved. I have such a heart, but I have nothing to do. Now that I am so old, I still want my sister to take care of me, and I rely on my sister's reputation everywhere. I am nothing... I said I would protect my sister , but..." Brother Xuan lowered his head, his face was full of dissatisfaction and stubbornness.
Chai Sujin smiled slightly, "Now there is an opportunity. Not only can you contribute to Da Zhou, but it is also a great opportunity to exercise your talents and experience. I'm afraid that others will not do their best. If you can't do this well, you must know this The matter is related to my wealth and trust, but also to the lives of the frontline soldiers and generals, and the key to whether Da Zhou can take advantage of the disadvantages."
Brother Xuan's eyes lit up suddenly, and he looked up at Chai Sujin, "Really? Are you bluffing me?"
"Why am I bluffing you? It depends on you to worry about this matter!" Chai Sujin said.
Brother Xuan immediately walked a few steps closer, sat down next to her, leaned his head forward and said, "Quickly tell me, what's the matter?"
"Do you still remember the effect of Yangyuan Pill?" Chai Sujin asked in a low voice.
(End of this chapter)
"Bah," Zhao Yuanzhen hurriedly put the jujube tea to her mouth, "gargle, it's Chinese New Year, what are you talking about?"
After speaking, he slapped his mouth, turned his face and rinsed his mouth with tea soup.
Chai Sujin drank the jujube tea with a smile, "I don't mind it, but you care about it?"
"Naturally, I have to worry about it. Now that my son is on your body, how can I be careless?" Zhao Yuanzhen said.
Chai Sujin chuckled, "It's only been a month, what does he know?"
"It's only been a month..." Zhao Yuanzhen sighed, stretched out his hand to hold Chai Sujin's hand tightly, and fixed his eyes on her, as if he wanted to engrave her in his eyes.
"What is this for?" Chai Sujin asked with a smile.
Zhao Yuanzhen sighed softly, "It's only been a month, but I want to leave you. I heard that a woman is pregnant in October. It's very hard, but I...can't stay by your side and let you go through it alone. You...will blame me ?”
Chai Sujin shook her head repeatedly.
"Even if you don't blame me, how can my son not blame me?" Zhao Yuanzhen sighed.
"If you come back victorious, he won't blame you. Not only will he not blame you, but he will also be proud of having such a powerful father." Chai Sujin said.
Zhao Yuanzhen nodded, "It's inevitable, but thinking about separation, thinking that I can't be by your side when you need it, I don't even know if I can see my son's birth with my own eyes..."
"Don't think about it so much," Chai Sujin raised his hand and caressed his handsome and unparalleled cheeks, "You know we are here, waiting for you to come back, waiting happily for you to take us into the house, that's good gone."
Zhao Yuanzhen lowered his eyes, lowered his head and kissed her smooth forehead, and then moved down the bridge of her nose to enclose her lips.
Her lips are moist, with an intoxicating mellow fragrance.
"People who are concerned are happy, and I am happy." Zhao Yuanzhen said slowly in her ear.
"Why am I not? My child and I are also the happiest." Chai Sujin murmured, "The current separation is just for the sake of being able to stay together forever in the future, so that no one will be able to separate us in the future."
"Yes, I will do my best to come back as soon as possible." He held her tightly in his arms.
Chai Sujin shook her head, "No, I want you to do everything you can to return safely and triumphantly."
After the New Year's Eve banquet, Princess Changming and Duke Ding never appeared in front of people again.
Ding Guogong didn't even return to his own Duke's Mansion, and stayed in the Princess Mansion every day.
Even the maids around the princess couldn't help complaining that they were going to panic when the Duke was here.Almost everything about the princess is taken care of by the Duke.
The princess wants to drink tea, and the Duke cooks it himself.The princess wants to go for a walk, and Duke Ye personally supports her.The princess wants to rest, and the Duke personally takes care of changing clothes...
The princess could hardly leave the Duke's sight for a moment.
During the annual vacation, the imperial court had nothing to do, even if there were some urgent matters, the Duke of the State also moved to the Princess Mansion to take care of them.
Now Ruan Qing is very familiar with the roads of the princess mansion, entering and leaving is like being in the Duke's mansion.
"The Holy Majesty said that you can marry my sister only after you defeat Ma Wenzhao and drive away the Chu army!" Brother Xuan yelled when he saw Zhao Yuanzhen, "Didn't the Holy Majesty tell you to move to the Princess Mansion? of!"
Zhao Yuanzhen nodded, "Brother Xuan taught me the lesson."
Brother Xuan couldn't help but tremble with a humble attitude, and looked up and down suspiciously at him with wide-eyed eyes.
When I saw him before, I just thought he was extremely cold and serious.
Looking at him now, it is clear that he is still unsmiling, why does he feel so different from before?
"Then you... why don't you hurry up? Staying here is an eyesore..." Brother Xuan's words were not polite, but his tone was obviously weaker.
Zhao Yuanzhen nodded, "Leave after I finish reading for Yuanchu."
"Yuanchu? Who is Yuanchu?" Brother Xuan looked around.
The maids gave him winks one after another, looking at the princess' belly.
Brother Xuan frowned slightly, was suspicious for a moment, and shouted loudly: "Yuanchu? My nephew's name is Yuanchu?"
"Keep your voice down!" Chai Sujin rubbed her ears, "I'm not deaf, it's just my baby name."
Brother Xuan nodded, with astonishment still on his face, "At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, it sounded like a boy's name, what if it was a girl's name?"
The maids frowned at her one after another.
But Zhao Yuanzhen interjected: "It was originally a baby name for girls. I just hope that there will be a daughter first, so that someone who can be called a father will love her well."
Brother Xuan rolled his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Shhh! Read it quickly, and leave when you finish reading!"
Zhao Yuanzhen really moved a little bit, and sat beside Chai Sujin, holding a book of gossip and miscellaneous notes, reading in a slow tone.
His voice is very nice, even brother Xuan who doesn't like him calms down for no reason and listens to his soft voice.
Seemingly tireless, he read one book and changed another.But he didn't say anything about leaving.
Until brother Xuan couldn't sit still, he was still reading.
"Is it over?" Brother Xuan stared.
"For a long time in the future, I won't be able to stay by their mother and daughter's side, so now I will spend more time with them before they leave Beijing." Zhao Yuanzhen said slowly with lowered eyes.
He is such a cold and hard person, what he said is indeed a bit of pleading.
Brother Xuan's heart was sour, and he felt a little guilty, "Then...then you read it, I, I will come to see my sister some other day."
Brother Xuan walks away with his hands behind his back.
Only then did Zhao Yuanzhen put down the book, and held Chai Sujin's hand affectionately.
Chai Sujin looked at him helplessly and shook her head.
Brother Xuan came out of the princess mansion, and said with emotion to the young servant beside him: "I really can't see that such a cold person surnamed Zhao has such a tender side. With such a delicate mind, he knows that before leaving The child in my sister's womb reads books, which is really rare."
The young man was leading the horse, startled, and paused in his steps.
"What? Didn't expect it?" Brother Xuan kicked him lightly.
The boy scratched his head, "It's too early to start reading now, isn't it?"
Brother Xuan was taken aback, "That's right, it's only been a month now, so the baby hasn't formed yet in the womb, right? It's strange to hear him reading!"
The little servant chuckled, pursed his lips and remained silent.
"You're fooling me! This guy!" Brother Xuan turned his head and complained in the direction of the Princess Mansion, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
She can carefully observe his mood, knowing that he doesn't like him, but she doesn't want her sister to be in trouble, so she leans down to resolve the unpleasant conflict with her brother-in-law, just to make her happy and at ease.
Such a man shouldn't be too bad, right?
Maybe killing his sister in the previous life was really not what he wanted... Maybe he was too prejudiced because he didn't want to see him all the time?
Brother Xuan sat on the horse and let out a long breath.
Since my sister has done this for him, what reason do I have for not accepting him?
Zhao Yuanzhen stayed in the Princess Mansion until the Shangyuan Festival.
After New Year's Eve, the Holy Majesty imprisoned the envoy of Chu State, and this attitude has already been expressed.
The troops stationed around the capital were also reorganized, and part of them were dispatched to follow Zhao Yuanzhen to the border after the fifteenth day.
The day of parting is approaching day by day.
But in the princess mansion, everything is as usual.
In the morning and evening, you can see a couple walking hand in hand.
The white snow and the red plums are all a little warmer and warmer by the reflection of this pair of Bi people.
The Princess Mansion seems to be an independent existence in the world, it does not welcome guests, and visiting relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year is all abandoned by the Princess Mansion.
The bustle of the outer courtyard, the housekeeper's wife alone dealt with the courtesies of the Princess Mansion, and did not dare to disturb the inner courtyard with these matters.
Neither of them mentioned it clearly, and they clearly avoided the matter of parting on purpose.
But on the day of Shangyuan Festival, the atmosphere between the two became inexplicably sad.
"I made a rabbit lamp." Zhao Yuanzhen said, "Although it is not as good as those sold by craftsmen, the rabbits painted on it are lifelike. Yuanchu will definitely like it."
"How could anyone praise himself like that?" Chai Sujin smiled and shook his head, "He didn't say he liked it."
"Look, I'm going to save this lamp until after he is born, and I'll ask him in person, I'm sure he likes it." Zhao Yuanzhen said seriously.
Chai Sujin nodded, "Why don't you do it every year? It can't be said that the more you do it, the better, he will really like it?"
"This one has a different meaning. It is the first one I made for him. Although he is still in the womb and cannot be seen yet, this lamp will guard him." Zhao Yuanzhen said.
The voice fell to the ground, and there was a sudden silence between the two.
Rabbit Lantern will watch over his son and his wife for him when he is not around.
Parting is unavoidable after all.
Chai Sujin hurriedly lowered her head, her vision blurred involuntarily.
Zhao Yuanzhen stepped forward, hooked her chin, and raised her head.He put his rough hand on her cheek and wiped away the tears on her face, "Don't cry, I will be back soon."
Chai Sujin shook her head, "Who is crying? Sand got in the eyes!"
Zhao Yuanzhen nodded, "Yes, the curtains of the gauze cabinets in the Princess Mansion should be replaced! The sand was blown in!"
Chai Sujin raised her hand to beat him.
Zhao Yuanzhen took her hand gently, "Protect yourself, I will keep Ruan Qing in the capital, you can use him with confidence."
"Take him with you. When you are going on an expedition, it is most important to have someone trustworthy by your side." Chai Sujin shook her head and said, "I am in the capital, what will happen? Brother Xuan, my cousin, the Holy Majesty is in the capital."
Zhao Yuanzhen shook his head, "I can't stay by your side personally, letting my cronies stay and guard you is the only thing I can do for you."
He didn't say, don't refuse.
But it was all in his eyes.
Chai Sujin could only nod, "Okay."
"Tomorrow..." Zhao Yuanzhen said, then stopped talking.
These days of staying together, these few days of being inseparable, it seems that both of them are used to it.
Tomorrow he will go to the place outside the capital to garrison troops, and lead the soldiers and horses sent to him by the Holy Majesty to go to the frontier in person.
Maybe there will be a delay of two days in the place where the troops are stationed, but he will not be able to come back after leaving the capital, so he must quietly rush to the border as quickly as possible.
After such a farewell, the return date has not yet expired.
This life has gone through hardships, and the two of them seem to have experienced too many twists and turns to be able to stay together.
Although they have not been together for a long time, only more than ten days, it seems that they have been together for a lifetime, and the feeling of staying together has been melted into the bones, but now they want to separate each other from the bones.
"Are you leaving tomorrow?" Chai Sujin asked with downcast eyes.
She didn't dare to look at him, for fear that she would cry if she saw him.
"You are not a crying person. I have never seen you shed a few tears in my previous life." Zhao Yuanzhen said softly, "Don't cry now, so as not to make Yuanchu worry about mother. Who said that the short separation now is just To stay together in the future?"
Chai Sujin nodded, "I know, it's just to do what you should do. Now that you do it, you will have expectations in the future. I know..."
Zhao Yuanzhen held her tightly in his arms, "I will come back as soon as possible..."
Chai Sujin replied sullenly, "Don't forget to promise me."
……
He put his arms around her, reciting her favorite poems, and coaxed her to sleep.
She has been tossing and turning in his arms, unable to sleep soundly for a long time.
The sky seemed to be almost dawn, and the servant girl's anxious footsteps came and went back and forth outside the window.
Chai Sujin didn't move for a while, she seemed to be fast asleep.
Zhao Yuanzhen leaned down slowly, and planted his hot and attached kiss on her cheek, forehead, and lips.
He turned over, stood beside the bed, and took another deep look at her.
The door squeaked softly.
A gust of cold air blew in, and was quickly blocked out.
"Master, Ruan Qing has been waiting in the outer courtyard for more than half an hour." The servant girl hurried forward and said in a low voice.
The footsteps hurried away.
Chai Sujin, who was fast asleep on the bed, suddenly opened her eyes.
She jumped out of bed barefoot, quickly came to the window, and stretched out her hand to push the window open.
The cold wind was blowing into the warm room, she couldn't help shivering, but her eyes were looking at the neat and quiet path in the courtyard.
It was not yet bright, and the lights under the porch cast shadows on the path.
The bare branches cast long shadows on the road, but the tall and tall figure had long since disappeared.
"Princess, are you awake?" The servant girl hurried forward, "Duke Ding just left..."
Chai Sujin waved her hand, "I know, it's okay, I just took a look..."
"Princess, it's cold outside. When Duke Ding left, he told the maidservants not to wake you up." The servant girl whispered.
Chai Sujin's fair cheeks were a little red from the wind, and her hands fell on her flat stomach, where she could not feel anything yet, but a new life was pregnant.
Originally, he shouldn't have been asked to come to this world at this time. Although his parents both have incomparably noble identities, he should have come here in an upright manner, instead of bearing the bad reputation of being unmarried and pregnant...
"I'm sorry..." Chai Sujin murmured.
"What is the princess' order?" The servant girl hurriedly stepped forward.
Chai Sujin shook her head, "I wrote a list of medicinal materials and sent it to Ji Xiang, saying that I want to use it, the sooner the better."
"What time?" The servant girl looked at the sky suspiciously, it was still early before dawn.
"Yes, send it right away, I think my cousin won't be too lazy to get up now." After Chai Sujin finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the table.
The servant girl hurried in, closed the window, and stood beside the table.
Chai Sujin handed over a few pages of paper that had been folded and stuffed into the envelope, "If my cousin has any questions, tell him to ask me."
The servant girl backed away.
Chai Sujin looked at the door curtain that the maid opened and lowered.
It seemed that Zhao Yuanzhen was outside the door, just like every morning in the past.The first time she woke up, she could see his figure.
He personally blew the soup cold, held the porcelain spoon in his slender hands, and fed her himself...
He personally tested the temperature of the water, wiped her face and washed herself...
There was a crackling sound in the charcoal basin, and Chai Sujin came to her senses, the door curtain had fallen, but the figure of that person could no longer be seen.
How can this be good?
He just left, and he hasn't even left the capital yet, right?She has already begun to miss it so much.
"Come here, please come, Uncle Zhaolian." Chai Sujin ordered.
The servant girl hurried in, "Princess, it's still early, Uncle Zhaolian..."
"Cousin is diligent, brother Xuan may still be asleep," Chai Sujin shook his head, "Forget it, bring me the recipes for the past few days."
"The meals are all arranged by the princess herself," the servant girl said in a low voice.
Chai Sujin nodded, "I still need to adjust, my taste has changed suddenly, I want to eat something else."
The servant girl hurriedly retreated.
Chai Sujin took a deep breath, she wanted to make herself busy, more busy, so that she would have no time to miss...
The sky was bright, and Ji Bocai rushed to the Princess Mansion in a hurry.
"Did you sleep well last night?" Ji Bocai asked with a smile.
Chai Sujin asked him to sit down, ordered someone to serve tea, nodded and said, "Very good."
But Ji Bocai's eyes fell on the ashes in her eyes, he smiled and took the tea served by the maid, and did not expose her, "The list of medicinal materials that my cousin asked someone to send, the amount of medicine is not small, what is it for? use?"
Chai Sujin waved her hand to tell the waiters to leave.
The door of the hall was open, and she and Ji Bocai could be seen sitting opposite each other at a short distance from the outside, but they couldn't hear what they were talking about.
"Although the war with Chu has not yet begun, we must make all-out preparations. It is still unknown what role the Shu State will play in this battle, but it is an indisputable fact that Shu and Chu have close ties." Chai Sujin Said, "No matter who the enemy is for my Da Zhou, this battle can only be won, not lost."
Ji Bocai nodded heavily, "Exactly, so this medicinal material is prepared for making 'Yangyuan Pill'?"
Chai Sujin nodded, "That's right."
Ji Bocai frowned slightly, remained silent for a while, and just stared at her silently.
"What concerns does my cousin have, why don't you just tell me?" Chai Sujin asked.
Ji Bocai breathed out slowly, "If I hadn't seen and experienced the miraculous effects of Yangyuan Pill with my own eyes, I would never have believed it. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is a magic medicine."
"It's not that magical." Chai Sujin shook her head.
"It's so miraculous. Not only do I think so, but even the Holy Majesty, Duke Ding, and the military doctors in the barracks at that time thought so. My cousin thinks that the reverence for the princess in the civilian army is groundless. Is it? In private, one or two people said that if there is no princess, the Holy Majesty will have twice as many soldiers and horses, and he may not be able to win." Ji Bocai said in a deep voice, "Yu Zhende has discovered it later, and he is thinking about Yangyuan Pill , but Liang Si and him have their own opinions, and did not hand over the Yangyuan Pill to him."
Chai Sujin lowered her eyes and listened quietly.
"Since Yu Zhende can find out, what about others?" Ji Bocai asked.
Chai Sujin looked up at him, "What happened to the others?"
"Why did the state of Chu propose Hebi and Chengchi to marry his cousin? Is it really because Ma Wenzhao likes his cousin's personal affair?" Ji Bocai said slowly.
"This is just an excuse. Of course he wants to start a war so that he can plunder benefits from Da Zhou." Chai Sujin said.
Ji Bocai shook his head slightly, "The benefits of plundering are true, but there is no need to rush to plunder the benefits at this moment. The Great Zhou has just stabilized and cannot withstand the chaos of war. Isn't Chu the same? Even with the help of Shu, the recovery of people's livelihood is even better. Hurry up, but the new regime has just been established. At this time, a wise person should vigorously develop his own national strength. Why did he take the initiative to start a war?"
Chai Sujin frowned.
Ji Bocai's gaze fell deeply on her.
"For... me?" Chai Sujin frowned.
Ji Bocai nodded, "That's right, it's really for my cousin. In order to win my cousin as queen, he really prepared four cities. The people of Chu are not lying."
Chai Sujin groaned, "Do you really want to give it?"
"Yes, Ma Wenzhao has a very long-term vision. He has an old friendship with his cousin. Perhaps in his heart, his cousin is indeed someone he can't let go of. The cousin has such amazing medical skills, which makes him flock to her. Wait until My cousin has really become his queen, and he and my cousin are our own people. At that time, if we go on a campaign, with the help of my cousin, I will be invincible." Ji Bocai analyzed with downcast eyes.
Chai Sujin laughed, "I'm so powerful, and I don't even know it?"
"Chu's army has been assembled at the border, why has it been reluctant to do it? It also needs a lot of military supplies to station troops on the border, and Ma Wenzhao is not stupid," Ji Bocai asked, "Why did he do such a stupid thing?"
"Because... he doesn't want to really start a war at all?" Chai Sujin interjected, "The reason why he has a large army is just to exert pressure, so that the Holy Majesty will give in?"
Ji Bocai nodded again and again, "In the final analysis, his purpose is still his cousin. To get her."
Chai Sujin raised her hand to support her abdomen, pursed her lips and smiled, there was a kind of maternal radiance on her beautiful face, "Then he made a mistake, he probably forgot that there is a saying that is better to be broken than to be whole."
Ji Bocai's gaze followed her hand and landed on her stomach, "Yes, he probably never thought that his cousin would make such a move, and would not hesitate to use himself as a pawn to fight against him."
Chai Sujin licked her lips, "So, my cousin will help me prepare these herbs, right?"
Ji Bocai sighed softly, "I've said so much, but you still don't understand?"
"I understand, what my cousin means is that when I made the Yangyuan Pill earlier, I have attracted the attention of all parties and made up my mind. Now I should keep a low profile and disappear in the capital, and disappear in the princess's eyes." Under the halo." Chai Sujin smiled, "The so-called big tree attracts the wind, my cousin is doing it for my own good and thinking of me."
"After Liang Yue reminded me, I told my majesty to block all news about Yangyuan Pill, and no one was allowed to talk about it anywhere." Ji Bocai raised his eyes, and there was a distant reflection of her in his eyes, " Now, don't get caught up in the fire."
He shook his head slightly, his face full of disapproval.
Chai Sujin smiled, "Cousin is missing something."
Ji Bocai looked at her with raised eyebrows.
"Now that Da Zhou is going to fight, the result is the most important thing. In order to win in the end, no matter how big the risk is, it is worth it. How can there be eggs under the so-called full nest? If I lose the battle, I must be the fish of others. Only Only by winning can Da Zhou be his own master. Only then can I be my own master." Chai Sujin said with a smile.
Ji Bocai pursed his thin lips, and didn't speak again for a long while.
"My cousin won't understand this truth. I'm talking too much when I say it. My cousin is worried about me, I understand." Chai Sujin said softly, "Thank you, cousin. Brother Zhen is at the border. I am fighting, and I am in the capital, so I can only do my best for him. I also ask my cousin to put the overall situation first and help me a lot."
Ji Bocai's face was clear, no smile could be seen, and he sat for a while, then he stood up suddenly.
"Since my cousin has already thought it through, let's do as my cousin wants."
After he finished speaking, he bowed his hands and turned away.
Chai Sujin looked at his leaving figure in astonishment, and curiously asked the maid who walked in, "Why do I feel that my cousin is a little angry? Do you think so?"
The maids didn't dare to talk, and changed the topic happily.
"Earlier, the princess ordered that Uncle Zhao Lian should be invited. Now that the sky is bright, Uncle Zhao Lian must have already got up, but do you still want to invite him?" the servant girl asked beside Chai Sujin.
Chai Sujin nodded, "Cousin has already agreed, the prime minister will come forward, and the procurement of medicinal materials will not be a problem, then the next preparations will start. Go invite Uncle Zhao Lian, there are still many things to tell him to do."
The maid hurriedly bowed and retreated.
But when Brother Xuan came, it was already noon.
"Is the Princess Mansion far from the Earl's Mansion? Why do you want to come here, and it will take a long time?" Chai Sujin looked at him and asked.
Brother Xuan took off his cloak, threw it aside, pouted, his face full of displeasure.
"Who messed with you?" Chai Sujin frowned slightly, "Duke Ding is no longer in the capital? Who are you having trouble with?"
"Still talking! It's because of him!" Brother Xuan immediately stared.
Chai Sujin was slightly surprised, "Can he still mess with you when he's gone?"
Brother Xuan snorted heavily, "It was agreed earlier that I will help him when he goes to the front to fight. Didn't the Holy Majesty say that I have no experience in leading troops to fight? Isn't experience cultivated slowly? Now Good opportunity, I know he is powerful, if I learn more from him, won't I have experience?"
He rolled his eyes, leaned on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, displeased all over his body.
Chai Sujin was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "So you want to go to the border with him?"
Brother Xuan took a quick look at Chai Sujin, "Sister, you don't have to worry. It's okay if I go to the border. This is my brother-in-law, and my master is there. I won't be in any danger."
"Nonsense!" Chai Sujin scolded coldly.
Brother Xuan's face immediately sank, "Why are you just messing around..."
"It is precisely because of your relationship with Ma Wenzhao that you cannot be asked to go to the frontier," Chai Sujin said.
Brother Xuan quickly jumped up from the chair, "Is my sister still afraid that I will betray Da Zhou? Are you still worried that I will stand with Ma Wenzhao? Am I stupid?"
"Have you forgotten what you said just now? Tell me, this is your brother-in-law, and the other is your master!" Chai Sujin's voice was also full of coldness.
It is rare for the siblings to be so cold-eyed.
Brother Xuan pouted and stared at her, "That's what I said, but so what? Could it be that I don't care about my sister and the child in my sister's womb, but instead help Ma Wenzhao?"
"Since you won't help him, will he care about your old relationship? If you fall into his hands, how will you tell Zhao Yuanzhen to deal with yourself? How will you tell me to deal with myself?" Chai Sujin asked.
Brother Xuan frowned and pursed his lips, panting heavily, and clenched his two fists hanging by his sides tightly.
"You don't have to be angry," Chai Sujin slowed down, "The way to help Da Zhou fight against the intruders is not just to go to the front line to kill. Now there is a place that needs your help. If you can do it well , is also a great achievement.”
"I'm not doing it for fame and fortune! I'm just doing it to increase my knowledge and experience, so that people won't say that I got the status of earl for nothing because of my sister..." Brother Xuan muttered softly.
There was still anger on his face, and his cheeks flushed even more amidst the muttering.
Chai Sujin sighed slowly, "It turns out that the crux is here..."
Brother Xuan shook his head, "No... sister, don't think too much, I..."
Chai Sujin nodded again and again, "I understand, this is your pride as a man at work, right? When you want others to mention Zhao Lianbo, they give you a thumbs up to praise your ability. You don't want to call People say, you are just a spoiled dude who relies on nepotism."
Brother Xuan blushed and did not speak.
Chai Sujin sighed softly, "It's a good thing that you have grown up. It's also a good thing to have such a competitive heart. Our parents in heaven are also relieved to see you now."
"I'm afraid I can't be relieved. I have such a heart, but I have nothing to do. Now that I am so old, I still want my sister to take care of me, and I rely on my sister's reputation everywhere. I am nothing... I said I would protect my sister , but..." Brother Xuan lowered his head, his face was full of dissatisfaction and stubbornness.
Chai Sujin smiled slightly, "Now there is an opportunity. Not only can you contribute to Da Zhou, but it is also a great opportunity to exercise your talents and experience. I'm afraid that others will not do their best. If you can't do this well, you must know this The matter is related to my wealth and trust, but also to the lives of the frontline soldiers and generals, and the key to whether Da Zhou can take advantage of the disadvantages."
Brother Xuan's eyes lit up suddenly, and he looked up at Chai Sujin, "Really? Are you bluffing me?"
"Why am I bluffing you? It depends on you to worry about this matter!" Chai Sujin said.
Brother Xuan immediately walked a few steps closer, sat down next to her, leaned his head forward and said, "Quickly tell me, what's the matter?"
"Do you still remember the effect of Yangyuan Pill?" Chai Sujin asked in a low voice.
