Zhao He glanced at the black iron box in confusion. Since this thing is very important, shouldn't Madam keep it by her side? When it comes to safety, there is no place safer than this yard. But why would Madam put this thing away? In an unoccupied yard? Although Zhao He was a little confused, he still followed Xiao Jiang with the box in his arms.
Two quarters of an hour later, Xiao Jiang came back and handed the key to Shen Wan.
After Shen Wan and the others finished cleaning up, Song Heng and the others also had dinner. When he came back with his son An in his arms, he had already fallen asleep.
Shen Wan put the boy on the bed and covered him with a small quilt. She knew that Song Heng must have a lot to ask him, so in order not to wake up the boy, she motioned for him to go to the outside room.
When they got to the outside room, Shen Wan sat on a chair leisurely, waiting for Song Heng to ask her.
Song Heng sat down on the chair next to Shen Wan and looked at her for a while before frowning and saying, "You've lost weight."
She looked thinner than when he left the imperial city. She was probably worried about Zi Ling's affairs, and also because she couldn't eat well or sleep well because she was traveling these days.
"Really?" Shen Wan touched her face and felt that her face seemed a little smaller. "You have lost weight too." Not only have you lost weight, you have also become haggard and old.
There was a period of silence, and after a while Song Heng finally said, "You shouldn't have come to the north, let alone brought Zian with you."
"Although I am very happy to see you and Zian." He added.
Hearing those words he added later, Shen Wan felt a lot more comfortable. She said, "I'm here for Zi Ling."
Song Heng frowned and said: "Zi Ling should have been taken to Manzi's camp now. I received your letter and expected that Manzi would disguise himself as a Xiling citizen and enter and exit the border from the west. I even sent Qiao Mu to lead the people. We went to intercept Zi Ling on the road from Xiling to the North Territory and rescue Zi Ling, but there were too many people coming to rescue him, and I sent Qiao Mu to bring too few people, so I had to give up the rescue."
"Have Qiao Mu and the others seen Zi Ling?" Shen Wan asked.
How could she be so stupid? At that time, no Northern Territory people would disguise themselves as people from other countries and exit through other gates. Every town was strictly investigating Northern Territory people, and I am afraid they were not so careful in investigating people from other countries.
Song Heng: "I saw it."
"I am responsible for what happened to Zi Ling. If I hadn't thought poorly and found a few people to follow Zi Ling when he came in and out, I would not have given Barbarian a chance." Shen Wan blamed herself.
Song Heng looked at Shen Wan who was blaming herself and comforted: "I don't blame you for this. No one expected that Barbarian would do such a despicable thing. You have done a good job."
He saw her reconciliation with Zi Ling. She regarded Zi Ling as her own son. If something happened to Zi Ling, she should be as sad and worried as anyone else.
Shen Wan glanced at Song Heng in surprise. She originally thought that if something happened to Zi Ling, he would complain to her. After all, she was not Zi Ling's real mother, but she didn't expect that he would not complain. Instead, he comforted himself.
Song Heng then said: "You can take An An to rest for two days and then return to the imperial city! We can't stay here for long." I'm afraid there will be a big battle in the next few days, and he won't be able to take care of them. Moreover, if the city is destroyed, they will If you stay in the city, you won't have time to run away.
"I'm here to save Zi Ling. I won't leave until I save him." Shen Wan said the purpose of her trip, "Although you may think I'm talking nonsense, I really have a way to save Zi Ling." Ling. I brought An An here not to cause trouble for you, but because something happened to Zi Ling. I was worried about leaving An An in the imperial city, and I didn't dare to let him leave my sight, so I brought him with me. of."
