The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 151 Winter of Turning Point
The winter spent on the island was the most difficult winter for Yun Ruochen.

When he learned that the old emperor was critically ill, Yun Ruochen's first reaction was to rush back to the capital.

Once the old emperor dies, her cowardly Baozi father will definitely be left alone!
But just when she was packing up her bags and wanted to leave, Yun Yao fell ill, and the sickness got worse.

Yun Yao is not a very strong kid.

As a premature baby with congenital deficiencies, the cold poison accumulated in his body, making him prone to illness.Moreover, no matter how healthy a child is, he will suffer from several illnesses when he is one or two years old, which is almost unavoidable.

It's just that Yun Yao's illness came at an untimely time!
Yun Ruochen was sweating all over in the winter, worried about his father far away, and worried about the condition of his younger brother in front of him, he didn't know how to choose.

If she wanted her to leave her younger brother who was suffering from a high fever and travel far away, she simply couldn't do it!
Yun Yao's illness is not complicated, it is simply typhoid fever caused by climate change.But for a child who has cold poison in his body, the invasion of cold air inside and outside is a great harm.

Even with Nie Shen's true energy and Yun Ruochen's methods to cure the disease, plus decoction treatment, Yun Yao still has not recovered from his illness for a long time.

Anyone who knows a little bit about the way of Qi and Huang knows very well how much cold air intrusion from inside and outside affects an immature child.

Besides, on this island, even though there are many medicinal herbs hidden in the cellar, some herbs that are not easy to preserve are not available.

During the days when Yun Yao fell ill, Yun Ruochen could only accompany and take care of his younger brother with all his heart, trying to suppress his worries about the situation in the Central Plains.

Fortunately, listening to Yulou, there was a message from a carrier pigeon almost the next day, and this was also a carrier pigeon sent by Nie Shen to urge their relationship.

The old emperor also had a hard time telling his fortune. He hadn't lost his breath from the big change in spring until winter. It was said that he would wake up occasionally, but there was no improvement at all.

Zhaoyun Ruochen deduced that the chronic poison in him was very harmful to the body, and the old emperor himself was also extremely poor.Being able to carry it for more than half a year can only prove that the old man Yuan Qidi is indeed a very strong guy mentally...

When Yun Yao's fever finally subsided, Nie Shen handed Yun Ruochen a note without saying anything.

Emperor Yuan Qi collapsed!
Although he had expected this day, Yun Ruochen still couldn't accept it calmly when the facts were in front of him.

"Grandfather, he..."

She moved her lips nonchalantly, and there was a momentary blank in her mind.

Emperor Yuan Qi's clear and stern face suddenly appeared very clearly in her mind.

This old man has been in charge of the world for decades, he is self-willed, and he is the only one who respects himself. He is an out-and-out tyrant.

He is ruthless and selfish, and he is unbelievably indifferent to his own sons. He cares more about his own throne than the growth and happiness of his sons.

Not only that, but his ability to govern the country is also mediocre.Over the past few decades, not only has Daqing not become more prosperous and powerful, but there have also been natural and man-made disasters year after year. Rebels often rebelled.

Moreover, he has been obsessed with cultivating Taoism and alchemy all year round, and has delayed the issue of heirs again and again... until now, the Tianming Sect has persuaded King Cheng to plot rebellion, causing chaos in the world, and Emperor Yuanqi is definitely responsible for the unbearable situation everywhere!

But at this moment, Yun Ruochen didn't think of these things.

She remembered the scene of playing chess with Emperor Yuan Qi when she entered the palace for the first time.

Even though Emperor Yuan Qi had all kinds of bad things, but he loved Yun Ruochen from the bottom of his heart.

This is of course the result of Yun Ruochen's careful calculation to curry favor, but it is also a kind of fate!
Until now, Yun Ruochen still doesn't understand why Emperor Yuan Qi treats him so well... far beyond his original imagination.

Sometimes, she felt that the way Emperor Yuan Qi looked at her was always a little weird.It seems that he is looking through her, at... the other person in his heart...

But she will never know the answer.This little doubt, with the death of the old emperor, will be deeply buried.

The hasty parting on the night of spring hunting is the eternal farewell!

"Princess, you can't go back."

While Yun Ruochen was in a daze, Nie Shen suddenly interrupted her thoughts and said firmly.

Before Yun Ruochen recovered from her mourning for the old emperor, she learned from Nie Shen that her father and crown prince Yun Zhaochong announced his succession the day after the old emperor's visit, with the reign name Yongjia.

At the same time, King Cheng of the Southwest also issued an appeal, claiming that the old emperor was murdered by the "traitor king".

The vassal kings had their own minds and began to fall into the dilemma of supporting the new emperor or the Cheng king.Civil disturbances broke out everywhere, and northern Xinjiang was in a hurry again.

The world war is about to start!
"The situation is so critical now, why can't I go back?"

Yun Ruochen lost his usual calmness, and hurriedly asked Nie Shen back.

"Princess, don't you still understand that the son's current body can't withstand a long journey at all? And you can rest assured that he stays on the island?"

"I……"

Yun Ruochen was at a loss for words and was unable to refute.

Indeed, what Nie Shen said was true.

After Yun Yao went through this serious illness, he couldn't recover his vitality within a few months of recuperation.Children are the most vulnerable!
In this era where the probability of newborn deaths is extremely high, how could Yun Ruochen dare to be careless?

She had no choice but to take Yunyao to escape, but now... Yunyao, she really can't take this child away, and she can't let go!

On the other hand, Yun Ruochen also understood that Nie Shen's use of Yun Yao's physical condition as an excuse actually meant that he didn't want her to leave the island.

In Nie Shen's mind, who owns the imperial power, and the rise and fall of the dynasty, are not more important than the people he cares about.

Yun Ruochen thought...it must be because Nie Shen swore to his mother to protect him, so he tried his best to isolate himself from the flames of war in the Central Plains, right?

However, even Nie Shen himself doubted, did he really care about Yun Ruochen because of Lianqing?

"Besides, princess, your body is just getting better, and you are adjusting your breath and practicing Qi. It's not too late to go back after your cultivation has improved!"

Nie Shen assured Yun Ruochen that he would let Tingyulou's subordinates send messages to Haidao every other day.If it really came to a critical moment, he would not stop Yun Ruochen from leaving the island.

What else could Yun Ruochen say?

Although she desperately wanted to go back to her father and help him, she really couldn't leave her brother behind.And what Nie Shen said was right, if her Qi training was forced to stop, it would definitely be difficult to improve her cultivation.

If her cultivation could not return to her peak state, her help to her father would definitely be greatly reduced.

"All right……"

After thinking over and over again, Yun Ruochen could only suppress his eagerness to return to his father's side, and persuade himself to endure, to endure...

She thinks she has a good chance of being a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, really.

The winter snow is getting colder and colder day by day, and the island has completely become a frozen world.

But no matter how bad the weather was, Yun Ruochen, Gu Che, and Ye Shenyan did not stop their practice for a single day.

Nie Shen no longer prevented Yun Ruochen from practicing qi, and even went out in the wind and snow on purpose, and found a lot of ginseng, sealwort, and fleece-flower root for her to help her practice.

Her reconstructed meridians have been forged by Tianlei's hammer and expanded to an incredible level. Practicing Qi according to her master's secret method is not just "doubling the result with half the effort", but several times!
Yun Ruochen put all his heart into Qi training, thinking of recovering his cultivation as soon as possible, he practiced almost day and night.Gu Che and Ye Shenyan felt sorry for her, but everyone knew that once Yun Ruochen made up his mind, no one would persuade her.

All they can do is to practice hard with her.

And Nie Shen was also taking care of Yun Yao attentively, continuing to "massage" him every day to get rid of the cold poison in his body.Although he could only pull out a little bit of cold air every day, Yun Yao's body finally began to improve after accumulating day and night.

From the information from the Central Plains, Yun Ruochen learned that King Cheng finally failed to hold his breath. Taking advantage of the severe cold and the Yangtze River freezing, he drove the vanguard troops across the river and began to approach the capital.

The court quickly assembled a team to fight.At this time, under the persuasion of the imperial envoy, several vassal kings finally showed a little sincerity.

The vassal kings each sent their own troops to guard the vassal land, preventing King Cheng from entering their domain, and also "symbolically" sent troops to fight a few small battles with King Cheng's army.

In any case, although these vassal kings did not fully cooperate with the court to destroy King Cheng's army, they did not vote for King Cheng anyway.For the imperial court, it is neither good news nor bad news.

At the end of winter, there is finally good news.

Not long after King Cheng's army crossed the river, they were attacked by reinforcements from the southeast and the imperial army. They suffered heavy casualties, and at least one-third of their strength was weakened.

The commander of the southeast reinforcements is Cen Zhixun, a powerful general under the command of Chu Pingan, the governor of the southeast water transport.

This person's name, Yun Ruochen, has been heard in the capital. It is said that General Cen has repeatedly made great achievements in the southeast anti-Japanese war, and he is a real general.

Moreover, the southeast army has enough food and preparations, which is really a big threat to King Cheng's army.

A few days later, another piece of news that surprised Yun Ruochen reached the island.

Zhao Xuan's figure appeared in the tent of the southeast reinforcements.

It is said that he followed Cen Zhixun's commander in action.According to reports from the spies in Yulou, Zhao Xuan participated in several military meetings at the highest level of the southeast reinforcements.

He may be a military adviser and think tank, sideways in the reinforcements.

"Brother Xuan, is he going to march and fight?"

Yun Ruochen's first reaction when he heard the news was worry.

Zhao Xuan had a congenital heart disease, and he was used to being pampered.Although he lived with them on the island, he is not a person who cannot bear hardships, but how difficult it is to march!
Can he handle it?

"Zhao Xuan, heh..."

After Gu Che learned about it, he was surprised, admired, and slightly jealous.

Obviously he was the one who wanted to fight, but Zhao Xuan got ahead of him.

Well, he knew that Zhao Xuan looked weak, but he was stronger and tougher than anyone else.Being a military advisor...is amazing.

"I can't lose to him!"

With such thoughts in mind, Gu Che practiced even harder. He often practiced until he lost all strength and collapsed on the ground before he would stop.

In this winter, the teenagers followed their own paths and worked hard towards the goal they aspired to achieve.

Then, the footsteps of spring are approaching unknowingly.

After this year has passed, Yun Ruochen and Ye Shenyan will be 12 years old, Zhao Xuan is fourteen, and Gu Che is sixteen.

Yun Yao is two years old.

They are all in a beautiful age with many, many futures ahead, but what will be waiting for them tomorrow?

　End of the year, busy as hell...work material piled up higher than mine, trust me I've been trying to find time to update...
