Chapter 115 Arrival in Beijing
Chapter 115 Arrival in Beijing
"Why haven't we seen the team yet?" Su Jinxiu asked Su Jinmu anxiously, and the latter also stretched his head to look into the distance.
"Why are you in such a hurry? According to the itinerary, we will arrive today."
"Little Wen Xi, I don't believe you are not anxious?" Su Jinxiu teased
Not in a hurry? Why not? When I heard that she was injured on the battlefield and was not yet conscious, what did Xiao Jue do? I was not satisfied that I failed to protect her.
The other three brothers were also extremely dissatisfied when they found out
"A-choo" Xiao Jue sneezed
"Your Highness, have you caught a cold? Winter is almost here. Here is ginger tea." Bai Zhi handed a cup to Xiao Jue.
"Winter is coming soon. I thought I was still in the Mid-Autumn Festival." It was a trance when I was warming up the wine. It was Mid-Autumn Festival when the war started. I didn't expect that I would lie down until winter came. It was so fast. It took a long time to get here. I wonder if my grandmother didn't take her medicine properly.
When Xiao Jue heard her say this, he simply didn't want to recall the Mid-Autumn Night. It was a cold night, a night he was afraid of. He didn't want to recall that night that made him uncomfortable. His body was covered in the blood of warm wine, red, sticky, and fishy. There was also a bloody hole in her bloodless face and flawless white shoulder that was punched by a hidden weapon. He clenched his hands tightly and sat there with a very bad look on his face.
"Xiao Jue, Xiao Jue? Hello" Wen Jiu noticed that something was wrong with him
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"It's okay, we're almost there, let's go directly to the General's Mansion first!" Xiao Jue said while holding his leg.
Wen Jiu saw it, but she didn't ask any more questions and just said "OK". She took it to heart and planned to ask Qing Long when she had time.
"Miss, Miss, I saw the eldest son, and the two sons of the general's mansion. Miss, your brother is here to pick you up," Bai Zhi shouted excitedly.
"Really? Hey, hiss." Wen Jiu was so excited that he suddenly remembered and pulled the wound.
"What's the matter? Don't worry, they are already here and can't run away." Xiao Jue helped her up. She stretched her head and looked at the people in front of her who were already running towards her. Something blurred her eye sockets, and her heart ached strangely. Her throat felt like it was being pinched, and her nose felt hot. This was family love, the family love that she had longed for in two lifetimes. She suddenly wanted to act like a spoiled child. It was really weird.
Call out
"Wine"
"younger sister"
"..."
"Brother, let's go back first," Wen Jiu's delicate voice sounded, and the three brothers outside were so happy that their hearts melted.
"Okay, let's go back to the General's Mansion." They all felt relieved as long as they woke up.
"Master Xiao, I'm sorry to you..." Wen Xi was interrupted by Wen Jiu before he could finish his words, "Let's talk about it when we get back."
The wine was not drunk for Xiao Jue, but Wen Xi didn't want him to be embarrassed now. After all, there were still those trivial matters in the Prime Minister's Mansion. It would be better to say that she was protecting Wen Xi rather than Xiao Jue!
The car arrived at the General's Mansion in a low profile. It was already past noon and the meal time had passed, but Wen Jiu was very hungry and his stomach was rumbling. Xuan Ling asked Bai Zhi to run in and tell the old lady
When Su Jinxiu and the others saw Bai Zhi, the maid, running into the mansion without caring about her image, they were surprised, but they were even more surprised to see Wen Jiu was carried down. How could she look so bad and be so thin?
The three of them came forward and argued about who should hold her, but Xiao Jue said directly, "Hurry up and go in, otherwise it will be bad if there are onlookers."
Several people followed him in dejectedly, looking around. Just like that, Xiao Jue entered the General's Mansion with warm wine in his arms. He was still thinking in his heart that as long as she was willing, he would accompany her back in the future.
"Old lady, the young lady is here. She is hungry. Is there anything to eat?" Bai Zhi ran in and frightened the old lady.
"Ah, yes, um, someone come quickly, the dishes can be served." The old lady was so happy that she was a little confused.
"Miss, you may not be able to sit at the table to eat, but you are fine. You are just too weak to eat... in bed..." Bai Zhi's voice was so low that she could hardly hear it herself.
When the old lady heard Bai Zhi say that she couldn't come to the table to eat, she rushed out. She had to see it with her own eyes. Just after taking two steps, she saw Xiao Jue walking towards Zhuo Hua's yard with warm wine in his arms.
The shout of "Stop" was deafening and full of energy.
Wenjiu smiled, it's good enough if grandma is still so energetic
"Old lady, I'm so sorry. I'll send her to rest first. I'll come over and explain everything to you one by one." Xiao Jue felt extremely guilty. After saying this, he looked at the old general again.
"You..." The old lady looked at Wen Jiu, who was even thinner than when he first came back. Except for being a little paler, his complexion was too scary, and even his lips were pale.
"Grandma, I'm so hungry, is there anything to eat?" Wenjiu reached out and grabbed the old lady's sleeve. She finally softened her heart and said yes, and asked Baizhi to bring it right away.
"Thank you grandma, you are the best."
Xiao Jue carried her in, put her on the bed, and comforted her to eat and take medicine. He would go to the palace later, and she just needed to treat him the same as before leaving the capital. The rest was up to him. Don't take anything you hear seriously and leave...
"No, young lady, what does this prince mean? What does it mean to treat him with the same attitude before leaving the capital? What does it mean to not take anything you hear seriously?" Xuan Ling didn't understand.
Wen Jiu understood, "It's nothing, just treat him with the same attitude as before. Go and urge Bai Zhi, I'm really hungry."
"Here it comes." Bai Zhi brought the delicious food, followed by several maids. It looked like a lot of food, so she invited the two of them to eat together.
The atmosphere here was not good. Everyone sat together for lunch, and no one spoke. Xiao Jue only said, "I will go to the palace first, and I will come back to explain to you. Is that okay?"
"Eat first and then go." The old general was reluctant to leave. The child was not that old.
"Then I should be shameless and wait for dinner to come back and ask for food. Things are very urgent right now. If I don't go, there will be trouble. The army should be waiting outside the city by now." Xiao Jue stood up and bowed.
"Go!" The old general also knew that he had to report to the emperor before entering Beijing.
"Junior, take your leave." Then he quickly ran out of the city to join the army.
"You...didn't see it...Forget it. I've been to the battlefield, I haven't received an imperial order, I can still defend you, I understand, I understand everything, but my dear, didn't you see it? Do you still have any manners?" After saying that, she began to wipe her tears again.
"Grandma, my sister is back now. Let's double the nourishment. You guys eat first. I'll go see my sister. I haven't seen her yet. I'll teach Xiao Jue a lesson when he comes back." Su Jinyu said and let someone push her away
"Hurry up and give it to the eldest master... No, bring the food to the yard. We'll eat there." The old lady said and followed.
"Miss, please eat slowly. Don't choke. Drink some soup." Bai Zhi reminded her carefully!
