Bai Feng led everyone to travel quickly at night. Soon, less than five miles away from the west gate of Yuyi Town, reinforcements from the army finally arrived to meet the queen. Not long after entering the city, the latter in charge of the palace engaged in a battle with the enemy.
, the sound of fighting, and the sound of horse hooves followed one after another. Soon, the Shi people quickly retreated to defend the city gate, leaving no chance for the Rouran people to invade.
Murong Yan, who was injured and fainted, was sent back to Yuyi Academy and was taken care of by Tao Wuyong and his disciple He Zhong. The rest of the academy were overjoyed to see Bai Feng return. Su Qing, Ajuan and Zhao Xiaomei were all around.
When walking in and out of Bai Feng's residence, I would try my best to help him and say a few words to him.
Yue Qingling, who had been taking care of his mother while Jingjie was away, saw Jingjie coming back and immediately said that she would run back to his home to pick up her mother so that mother and son could meet each other.
Jingji wanted to reject him, but he was afraid that his mother would go crazy and get in the way, so he continued to stay with Bai Feng to work. However, in the past few months, Yue Qingling had repeatedly asked Tao Wuyong to treat his mother, and the old woman was nursed back to health by Tao Wuyong.
Nowadays, some ordinary people's consciousness has been restored.
After understanding, Jingji couldn't help but thank his benefactors, and then agreed to Yue Qingling's request. The two informed Bai Feng of their intention to leave, and then walked out of the academy together to go home to meet their mother.
After sunrise, Bai Feng, who had been awake all night, suddenly left Murong Yan and took another unknown woman out of the house. Zhao Xiaomei happened to meet him head-on and was about to ask: "Mr. Bai, are you like this?"
Where are you going?"
"When we arrive at Zhao's house, we have something important to discuss with your father." Bai Feng replied, "Is it inconvenient for your father to meet us now?"
Zhao Xiaomei was a little surprised by Bai Feng's firm attitude. She looked at the strange woman next to Bai Feng doubtfully and asked, "Who is she? Don't Mr. Bai first see how injured Sister Murong is?"
"This Miss Shen Qiongzhi, you can regard her as your companion for the time being." Bai Feng introduced the woman beside him: "I have asked Mr. Tao just now that Yan'er should be fine. Now, I have something more important.
You need to report the matter to your father."
"Okay." The little girl bowed slightly to get out of the way and watched the two people leave, her eyes blurred and she didn't know what to say.
After a while, Bai Feng and Shen Qiongzhi entered the Zhao family's residence. At this time, it was the time when Zhao Wei was worshiping God and Buddha, so the two of them came to wait in front of the Buddhist hall.
But when Zhao Wei came out of the Buddhist hall, his steps were heavy, his figure was still upright and majestic, but his expression became a little gloomy as if he had been working hard for days.
"Bai Feng, I'm very happy to hear that you have returned victorious! This will save you a lot of trouble in the future wars." Zhao Wei stroked his beard with one hand and put the other hand behind his back. After thinking for a while, he said again
: "You will definitely pass through Rouxuan and Huaihuang towns on your way back, but what's the fighting situation like on the other side of Dao Nang?"
"Master Zhao is strategizing, and I believe that with Mr. Fan's assistance, Heba's army will soon be forced back." Bai Feng continued: "Sir, in addition to reporting the battle situation on the front line, I have something to do with you this time.
tell."
"But is it related to the girl next to me?" Zhao Wei said.
"The little girl Shen Qiongzhi comes from Wuchuan Town and is originally from the Holy Land." Shen Qiongzhi said, "Dugu Qi, please ask me to bring you something you want to say."
Having said that, Shen Qiongzhi took out the token, which was a pair of very inconspicuous copper bracelets.
"Did you come from the Holy Land?" Zhao Wei took a step closer, holding the bracelet and looking at it carefully, and continued: "I actually let you stand outside the door for a long time, how disrespectful I am."
"Mr. Zhao, it's okay." Shen Qiongzhi said: "Mother-in-law, she asked me to tell Mr. Zhao that she has been waiting for you. Now only Yuyi Town is still resisting. No matter what, please hold on, Mr. Zhao."
Zhao Wei was suddenly at a loss. He shook his head in disbelief and asked, "Qi, has she always been alone?"
Shen Qiongzhi laughed at herself: "No, she adopted several daughters. Unfortunately, none of them are promising and will always cause trouble for her mother-in-law all day long."
"Hahaha..." Zhao Wei continued to stare at the bracelet. There was no pattern at all on it and the production process was not complicated, but he still couldn't let go of it: "Hahaha, okay, great! I thought she would She used to persuade me to put down the butcher knife, but now she should understand who is holding the butcher knife, right? Hahaha..."
Bai Feng saw that Zhao Wei was in a very emotional state and was afraid of causing trouble if he stayed for a long time, so he bowed and said: "Sir, if there is no order, Bai Feng will leave now."
"Wait a minute." Zhao Wei returned the bracelet to Shen Qiongzhi and said, "Miss Shen, please return this bracelet to its owner, and then say something for me."
Zhao Wei turned around, looked up at the sky with his head high, and said: "I have never regretted what I have done, but if I were asked to choose again, I would be ruthless and take Qi out of the Holy Land. "
"Mr. Zhao, this...what happened?" Shen Qiongzhi asked eagerly: "If you are willing, can you tell me the details?"
"These are things that happened a long time ago. I believe your mother-in-law must have mentioned it." Zhao Wei's slightly trembling voice revealed his true feelings. This was an emotional explosion that had been suppressed for many years: "At that time, I had nothing. For the ambition in his heart, he often travels all over the country to do business, and Qibian and I met on this business road."
"At that time, she was forced to go into exile due to civil strife in the sect, and she was separated from her family. I saw that she was pitiful, so I allowed her to travel with me in the caravan... After that, a group of people who claimed to be relatives came to find her. Seeing that Qi had no intention of refusing, I let her go..."
Zhao Wei spoke intermittently, as if he was hiding something, but Bai Feng and Shen Qiongzhi could not be aggressive on this matter, so they had no choice but to remain silent and continue to listen: "Later I heard that she was the only one left alive in the whole clan, and she was also killed. He Basheng was imprisoned in that 'Holy Land' like a rare bird and beast, and he only hated me at that time..."
"Ahem..." Zhao Wei stopped his memory with a cough and asked Shen Qiongzhi again: "Miss Shen, please, be sure to bring my words to me."
"Okay, when the war is over, we must return to the Holy Land as soon as possible, right, Brother Feng?" Shen Qiongzhi looked at Bai Feng with evil intentions, as if he wanted to use Zhao Wei's authority to force Bai Feng to make a promise in person.
"Yes, I will definitely bring the words to you later." Bai Feng said helplessly.
"Okay, with Mr. Bai's words, I feel at ease. Cough, cough, cough..." Before Zhao Wei finished speaking, he kept coughing again. This time, he even coughed up some bloody phlegm. Seeing this, Bai Feng naturally wanted to
Stepping forward to help, Zhao Wei waved his hand and politely declined: "You guys go back and have a rest? Everyone is too tired these days, and I have to go back to the house."
After finishing speaking, the three people in the Buddhist hall dispersed.
