Chapter 1178

"Everyone, you are not allowed to tell anyone in the General's Mansion what happened before."

In the camp of the Black Dragon Army, Chen Qiao said to everyone in a serious manner.

"Yes!"

Along the way, Chen Qiao had reminded them no less than five times before and after, and everyone naturally remembered it in their hearts.

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will also restrain the soldiers in the camp." Xin Zhicheng said to Chen Qiao.

Hearing this, Chen Qiao nodded reassuringly, and then led Zhuo Anmi out of the Black Dragon Army camp, heading towards the general's mansion in the city.

By the time the two of them strolled back to the General's Mansion, a thin layer of snow had already fallen on both of them.

It was the first time for Zhuo Anmi to see snow. When he stopped at the gate of the General's Mansion, he couldn't help but stretch out his small palm to catch a small handful of snow. It's a pity that the snow was not too heavy today, so it fell The snowflakes on Zhuo Anmi's hands quickly melted into a puddle of snow water.

Seeing this, Zhuo Anmi hastily passed her hand in front of Chen Qiao, "It's gone! It's gone!"

Chen Qiao stroked Zhuo Anmi's head, brushed off the snowflakes on his head, and said, "Snowflakes will melt away. How about we come out to see the snow when it snows heavily?"

Zhuo Anmi thought for a while before he understood the meaning of Chen Qiao's words. He looked at the water stains in his hand with regret, then touched his clothes a few times, and then raised his hand towards Chen Qiao. A face full of smiles.

"it is good!"

"I'm going to take you to meet my family now. You can't be afraid of them, and you can't make them feel scared." Chen Qiao squatted down and looked at Zhuo Anmi and said.

Zhuo Anmi nodded solemnly to Chen Qiao.

"General!"

Leading Zhuo Anmi into the General's Mansion, Butler Wu was the first to see Chen Qiao who had come back, and excitedly greeted him with his fan propped up.

Chen Qiao showed a warm smile towards Butler Wu, "Anyway, I'm covered in snow anyway, and I don't care about it for a while, so I don't need to hold an umbrella anymore."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Hearing what Chen Qiao said, Steward Wu immediately put away the umbrella again, and hurriedly ordered the servants of the mansion to report to Fu Lan along the way.

"Isn't Changle in the mansion?"

After entering the main hall and sitting down, Chen Qiao asked a question.

Hearing this, Butler Wu couldn't help but sighed, and said: "Originally, after the general left, Madam came back to live, but a few days ago, His Majesty's dragon body suddenly went from bad to worse, so the Second Madam persuaded Madam to go back to the palace."

"What did the imperial doctor say?" Chen Qiao asked, while wiping his hands with the hot handkerchief that Butler Wu handed over.

Butler Wu took a look at Chen Qiao, and finally just shook his head, "The imperial doctor said that at most, it will only be another year."

Hearing this, Chen Qiao sighed heavily.

"Dare to ask the general, this is..."

After coming in, in fact, Butler Wu had already seen Zhuo Anmi, but because of Chen Qiao's questioning earlier, he didn't bother to take care of Zhuo Anmi, and it wasn't until Chen Qiao finished asking, that Butler Wu asked cautiously. One sentence.

Chen Qiao glanced at Zhuo Anmi, chuckled and said, "This is my savior."

Just after hearing what Chen Qiao said, Steward Wu had a blank expression on his face for a moment, and after he came back to his senses, he looked at Zhuo Anmi who was sitting beside him in horror.

"Save, save... my savior?!"

Butler Wu asked in disbelief.

Looking at the expression on Butler Wu's face that seemed to be slashed by someone, Chen Qiao couldn't help laughing, "Yes, but you can't tell other people in the mansion, otherwise if this word reaches Changle and Fu Lan I'm afraid the two of them will worry for a long time again if they hear the words in their ears."

Hearing Chen Qiao's words, Butler Wu finally came to his senses, and quickly responded, "Yes, this old slave knows what to do."

Butler Wu's voice had just finished speaking, and there was already a sound of messy footsteps outside the door at the other end.

Before Chen Qiao got up to meet him, the door of the main hall was already pushed open. The first to bear the brunt were Girl Xi and Girl Yi. The two little girls rushed straight into Chen Qiao's arms with smiles on their faces, and hugged her tightly. Long time no see father.

"Grandfather! Xi'er misses you so much!" said girl Xi, her head buried in Chen Qiao's neck.

The boys fell behind. Although they really wanted to hug Chen Qiao, they had no choice but to stand aside when they saw that Chen Qiao had been occupied by two girls.

"Okay, okay, you're already a big girl, why are you still in such a bad shape?"

Fu Lan was the last to enter the main hall. She looked at Chen Qiao who was hugged tightly by the two girls with a smile on her face. Although she said the reprimand in her mouth, she did not mean to blame at all.

Zhuo Anmi stared blankly at the scene in front of her. After a while, her eyes turned red as if thinking of the time when her parents were together.

"Husband, is this child...?"

Naturally, Fu Lan also saw Zhuo Anmi, so she couldn't help asking.

Hearing Fu Lan's voice, Butler Wu wanted to say something, but after thinking about Chen Qiao's previous order, he swallowed the words back.

Girl Xi and Girl Yi hugged Chen Qiao for a while, then reluctantly withdrew from Chen Qiao's arms.

"I'll talk to you about this child alone later."

After saying this, Chen Qiao glanced at the sky outside, touched his stomach that had started to protest and said, "It's getting late, let's eat first."

"That's good." Fu Lan nodded, and didn't ask any further questions.

After dinner, after finally sending the children away, Chen Qiao took Zhuo Anmi and Fu Lan to the study.

After sitting down in the study, Fu Lan glanced at Zhuo Anmi, who was sitting next to Chen Qiao, with a hint of suspicion in her eyes, "Husband, is this child..."

"Don't think about it!"

Seeing Fu Lan's expression, Chen Qiao knew what Fu Lan was thinking, so he interrupted Fu Lan's guess with a smile.

"This child's mother has passed away. As for his grandpa..." Chen Qiao glanced at Zhuo Anmi who was lowering his head and twirling his fingers, "I don't know where he was taken."

Hearing this, Fu Lan couldn't help but frowned, and continued to ask: "What's going on?"

After that, Chen Qiao told Fu Lan everything from discovering Zhuo Anmi to bringing Zhuo Anmi out of the cave, but concealed that he was attacked by another host.

"Other hosts?!"

After hearing what Chen Qiao said, Fu Landang's eyes widened.

Chen Qiao nodded, "According to what the system told me, the other host is even stronger than me, but I didn't get to meet that person this time either."

Hearing Chen Qiao's words, Zhuo Anmi couldn't help but looked up at Chen Qiao suspiciously, but he didn't open his mouth to expose Chen Qiao's lie, but remained silent and listened to the two talking.

"Then this child..."

Fu Lan looked at Zhuo Anmi very distressed, she really couldn't imagine what kind of a terrible life this child, who was barely seven years old, led in the past few years.

"His grandfather is also a host, but because he lost to that person, the system was forcibly stripped off, and he doesn't know where he was taken by that person right now." Chen Qiao said.

"It's really hateful!" Fu Lan said angrily, "What does other people have to do with him? Why do you want to hurt other people for no reason!"

Chen Qiao sighed lightly and shook his head, "I felt pity for this child, so I brought him back to Chang'an City, and wanted him to live with Brother Han and Girl Xi."

Naturally, Fu Lan would not object to Chen Qiao's decision, but seeing that Zhuo Anmi was following Chen Qiao all the time, she still had some doubts whether Zhuo Anmi could stay with Brother Han and the others.
