The border passes and military camps were besieged by Xixia and the surrounding small countries. Even with Jiang Zhe in charge, Dayan suffered heavy losses.
"General, the casualties have been counted and settled. The enemy troops have all retreated. Vice General Guo has brought his men back."
"knew."
Jiang Zhe rubbed his sore eyebrows. He had long understood that he had fallen into the enemy's trap.
Coupled with the information from the Xixia people captured by Guo Zhao, all this is Tuoba Mingge's conspiracy.
"Tuoba Mingge..."
Jiang Zhe gritted his teeth, but he didn't expect that he would be pecked in the eye by the geese when he was hunting geese all day long. This yellow-haired boy was cunning and cunning, and he was not a simple person.
He kept his grudge against Tuoba Mingge in his heart. With so many soldiers killed and injured in the military camp, he would have to return sooner or later to take revenge.
However, the top priority now is to return home.
Jiang Zhe was worried about Sannu and his children. When the military camp became more stable, he would ride back home.
The Jiang Mansion is now shrouded in a dark cloud because Sang Nu's coffin was lost.
The guards sent by Jiang Yue all returned without success, and they didn't know who stole the coffin. People from the Jiang Mansion searched the entire city but couldn't find any clues.
After leaving the border, a gray and inconspicuous carriage was heading west.
There was a woman lying in the carriage. The butterfly birthmarks on her hands had all disappeared, and her originally blue face had turned pale.
"The master has sent someone to meet him, let's go faster."
They placed people at the border, and since Jiang Zhe was not in the house, the guards in Jiang's house were loose, so they had the opportunity to bring the people out.
This little lady was poisoned by the poison from their Western Regions. Fortunately, she still has a breath of life left, otherwise she would not be able to be saved.
"knew."
The carriage speeded up, and the woman in the carriage trembled her eyelashes a few times, but finally she calmed down.
When Jiang Zhe heard the news reported by Jiang Yue after he returned home, all the suppressed anger in his chest exploded and he kicked the person to the ground.
"What did I order you to do? If you can't even do this well, what use does Jiang Mansion want you for?"
Even if Sannu dies, he still has to arrange the funeral arrangements. What is it like now? Even the body was stolen under his nose. How can Jiang Zhe not be angry?
Jiang Yue knelt on the ground with a bang, his face turned pale with pain. He heard a crack, and his bones were probably broken by the kick.
"My subordinates were negligent and let someone take advantage of the loophole. Our brothers have already gone to find him and will definitely find Master Sang."
"roll!"
What's the use of retrieving him? He's gone. Jiang Zhe was so angry that his chest was short of breath and his eyes were scarlet.
"Go down and take charge!"
Jiang Yue had followed him for many years, and Jiang Zhe trusted him and asked him to protect Sang Nu. But now, let alone the person, even the body is gone.
Jiang Yue endured his anger and did not dare to refute at all. Jiang Zhe just asked him to accept the crime and did not say that he would kill him. Cold sweat dripped from Jiang Yue's forehead and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Subordinates take orders."
The maids and ladies in the outer courtyard all knelt on the ground tremblingly. They were no better than Jiang Yue. This was the first time they saw Jiang Zhe angry. They were so frightened that they did not dare to breathe, for fear of being angered by their master.
Jiang Zhehei looked at the whole room with a sullen face. The sheets on the bed had been replaced with new ones. Yesterday, Sannu gave birth and the bed in the room was covered with blood. Even though it was cleaned now, the strong smell of blood could still be smelled.
Jiang Zhe closed his eyes. He couldn't escape in the military camp, but he didn't know that Sang Nu was also at a critical moment of life and death at that time.
Jiang Zhe didn't know what kind of feelings he had for Sannu. He liked her face, and his obedient and charming temperament satisfied all the cold treatment he received from the eldest princess.
Perhaps in his heart, Sang Nu had always been the substitute for the eldest princess. When she died, Jiang Zhe felt sad but not heartbroken.
It was just a plaything in the first place. Without her, there will be another one.
"Wow!"
The swaddled baby was waving its arms and legs and crying. His voice was weak and he cried like a cat.
Jiang Zhe's thoughts were drawn to him. When he saw the infant child, he narrowed his eyes and walked over lightly.
"This...is the child that Sannu gave birth to?"
After asking him, he suddenly felt that his words were stupid. How could anyone else be there except Sannu?
He picked up the child. The baby's face was still red. He looked at Jiang Zhe with dark eyes and screamed in his mouth.
Those eyes were so much like Sannu's that Jiang Zhe looked dazed for a moment.
"Who is taking care of Xiao Langjun?"
After Sannu passed away, the house was in a mess, and there was no one in charge.
After hearing Jiang Zhe's question, Sister-in-law Yang stood up from the crowd.
"If you talk to the master, you are a slave."
"Have you eaten anything, little man?" Jiang Zhe looked at his son, who was as big as a cat, with a solemn look in his eyes.
Can such a small baby survive?
After all, she was born prematurely and was poisoned in her mother's womb. Jiang Zhe's original expectations turned into disgust. What he wanted was a healthy heir, not a medicine jar.
The Jiang Mansion will be handed over to his son in the future. Jiang Zhe is now in his prime, and it is more than enough to train a strong heir. Originally, Sannu's child gave him great hope, but when he saw this sick and wilting skinny monkey,
Jiang Zhe's fatherly heart also disappeared.
"The wet nurse fed him once, but the young man refused to eat, and everything he was fed also vomited."
Sister-in-law Yang looked embarrassed. The child should be breastfed after birth. However, Sannu died of poison after giving birth and did not let the child take a sip of milk.
I don’t know if mother and son are connected, but after Sannu died, the young man kept crying and wilted, and even pulled his hands towards the bed, as if he was looking for his mother.
Sister-in-law Yang did not dare to say this, and the slaves among them were all speculating in private.
Once Sannu dies, this young man may not survive.
He was born prematurely, and there is no cure for the highly toxic poison in his body. Now that he can no longer eat, he looks like he will die prematurely.
Sister-in-law Yang didn't want to take care of him, but there was no other mother-in-law except her in the outer courtyard, so she couldn't get rid of such trouble.
"Hold him down and feed him again. Let the doctor watch him in the house. Make sure to take good care of the little husband."
"yes!"
After all, he was his own son. Jiang Zhe couldn't just watch him die. The Jiang family couldn't afford to forget about an idle person.
However, he had to find out why Sannu was born prematurely.
"Let Jiang Yue come in."
Jiang Zhe's face was solemn and he tapped his fingers on the table. The sound was not loud but it seemed to hit their hearts.
The guard followed the order, and soon Jiang Yue came limping over. He felt like he had been washed by water, and his head was covered in cold sweat.
Jiang Mansion's punishment was not unfounded. He was beaten fifty times and almost lost half his life.
"Master, are you looking for a subordinate?"
He endured the pain and knelt on the ground. Not only his knees but also his butt hurt as much as kneeling on a chopping board.
“Who was the person who gave birth to Sannu prematurely?”
He didn't believe it was just a coincidence, there must be a murderer behind it.
