Chapter 117 Something unusual happened when I got home
When the first snow of winter started to fall all over the sky, Mr. and Mrs. He Zexu came back.
When they arrived at Yuncheng, the two of them took a short rest, ate something, fed the horses, and then continued to set off.
"Dad, General Zhuo doesn't seem too happy." On horseback, Xiao An turned around and looked at Zhuo Yan who was standing at the city gate to see him off, then turned around and said.
He Zexu heard this, but did not turn around to look: "How about you stay here to coax him?"
"No, I miss my mother and brothers and sisters. I want to go back early." Xiao An immediately refused.
He Zexu immediately laughed when he heard his son say this. Yes, he also missed Sanniang, Xiaole and Ruyi.
His subordinates either seemed unhappy or unhappy.
Returning to Beijing this time, he wiped out the rebels and relieved the crisis in the capital. His father rewarded him for his merits, and Zhuo Yan was named a third-rank general.
At that time, the boy was quite happy, and he was quite happy on the way to the fiefdom, until he was ordered to lead his troops to garrison in the Yuncheng camp, and he immediately became virtuous.
Zhuo Yan told him that he wanted to be by his side, but he said no, and said Zhuo Yan, you are now a general, a general, so naturally you have to be in the military camp.
Then, the boy asked if he could not become the general. He immediately responded that the general was appointed by the emperor. If he did not want to do it, he would be disobeying and disrespecting the emperor's order.
When a heavy hat was buckled down, the boy became silent.
He Zexu was actually quite pleased at that time. Look, the people he brought out were not interested in becoming generals regardless of their character!
However, he couldn't be soft-hearted and take this boy with him, because this boy could hear Sanniang's voice.
Originally, it was nothing for Zhuo Yan to know that the current Mrs. Gu was his wife in Broken Soul Valley. He Zexu knew the character of Zhuo Yan very well.
As long as he is told that the princess's identity cannot be exposed, it will not be revealed even if she is beaten to death.
However, He Zexu does not dare to take any risks now, because once Sanniang's secret is revealed, Sanniang will face unimaginable dangers in the future.
Her blood can detoxify hundreds of poisons. When Wei tried to cure his eyes, his father used his imperial power and paid tens of thousands of dollars but failed to find a doctor who could cure his eyes.
However, a few drops of Sanniang's blood allowed him to see the light again.
Therefore, Sanniang’s rare blood,
The next morning, the eager father and son arrived in Malaysia.
Just as the city gate opened, the city defenders saw Xiao An and his son and rushed forward to say hello.
"Did something happen?" Xiao An, who was most familiar with Dama City, immediately asked nervously as he looked at the gate of the city and the number of defenders on the city tower that doubled as before.
Hearing his son ask this, He Zexu felt very ashamed. He only thought about meeting his wife and children sooner, but he didn't notice anything unusual!
"Go back to the eldest son, nothing happened. Madam told me to do this." The city guard told him quickly.
After hearing this answer, Xiao An glanced at his father, and both father and son saw worry in each other's eyes.
He quickly entered the city and went straight to the government office.
When he arrived outside the government office, He Zexu paid careful attention. It seemed that the guards guarding the government office were the same as before, one on each side.
But when you enter the government office, you can feel the difference from the past. There are many more secret guards.
Apparently, something happened while they were away!
"Dad, brother? Are you back?" Xiao Le was the first to see it and shouted happily.
When He Zexu and Xiao An saw Xiao Le, they lost the excitement they expected.
"Where's your mother?" He Zexu asked.
Seeing the expressions on his father's and eldest brother's faces, Xiao Le was stunned and couldn't think about what was going on. He raised his finger and pointed in the direction: "Mom is in the study."
When He Zexu and Xiao An heard this, they rushed to the study.
Wei Zijun, who was thinking about something in the study, suddenly heard rapid footsteps outside, followed by a familiar call: "Mother?"
Immediately afterwards, the eldest son Xiao An appeared in front of him, and then the children's father.
"You're back? Why didn't you tell me first?" Wei Zijun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the father and son were back safe and sound.
Seeing his son rushing over first, He Zexu could only pretend to be calm and walk in.
"Are you exhausted? Have you had breakfast?" Wei Zijun checked his son from top to bottom and then from bottom to top to make sure he was not injured before looking at the father again.
"Mom, what happened? There are too many people at the city gate." Xiao An asked anxiously.
"After breakfast, can I talk to you again?" Wei Zijun asked.
"Let's talk first, otherwise we won't be in the mood to eat." He Zexu also spoke.
"Xiao Le, close the door." Wei Zijun knew that if he didn't tell them now, they would really be in no mood to have breakfast.
Xiao Le turned around and closed the door after hearing this, and then walked to his parents' side.
He Zexu sat next to Wei Zijun, but Xiaoan and Xiaole did not sit down. Mother had something important to say to them.
"Xiao'an, Xiaole, you have grown up, there are some things that you should know." Wei Zijun explained his identity, why he fled his hometown, and why he asked Ruyi to wear men's clothing.
Anyway, she said everything she thought she should say.
This was the first time for the two children to hear their mother talk about her hometown and origin. They frowned and gritted their teeth as they listened.
"So that's it." The two children were equally shocked.
However, He Zexu, who had already known it before his two sons, heard that Sanniang's clan members actually decided to give her to the prince of Yangli Kingdom? It was because of the special blood in her body that could save Yangli's family.
The crown prince's life was so angry that veins popped up on his head.
"Don't look at me like that. I planned to tell you last time, but you didn't want to listen." Wei Zijun looked at her husband's eyes and reminded her quickly.
It's fine if I don't mention this, but when I mention He Zexu's expression, it becomes even worse, as gloomy as the bottom of a pot.
Yes, of course he remembered it. Sanniang told him that thing at the teahouse that day, and then continued to say it, saying that he didn't need to say it.
"It's enough for your grandfather to know about this. You must remember it and don't let it slip in front of your sister." Wei Zijun warned worriedly.
"Well, don't worry, mother, my son understands." Xiao An immediately expressed his position.
Don't tell your sister so that she won't be scared.
He Zexu's face was as dark as water. Qi Qinsheng, the crown prince of Yangli Kingdom? Okay, I will remember you.
"Mom, daddy and I are back now. We have everything under our control, so there is no need to worry." Xiao An felt sorry for her mother.
"Okay, now I have told you everything I should tell you. Can you go have breakfast?" Wei Zijun asked.
Grandfather actually wanted to say that he couldn't eat now, but he was afraid that she would be worried, so he still had to have breakfast.
Breakfast was quickly finished, and the first thing I did when I put down the dishes was to look at the pictures...
