In the study room of the General's Mansion, eunuch Ma Fang was talking to Jing Tianlie.
"This is the elixir that the king has refined for the general. It can cure your injuries."
Ma Fang took out a box with two pills in it, one for Jingtianlie and one for Jingfeng.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Eunuch Ma."
In the battle at Jade Buddha Pass, both Jing Tianlie and Jing Feng were seriously injured. ??
"You're welcome, General. Your Majesty values your Majesty very much. Once you recover from your injury, Your Majesty will still be of great use to you."
Jingtianlie was overjoyed and said: "Thank you very much, I will swear allegiance to Daxia to the death."
Just as he was talking, a soldier rushed into the room and shouted: "General, the old lady is here."
The soldiers suddenly broke in. Jing Tianlie was about to have a seizure, but when he heard that the old lady had arrived, Jing Tianlie immediately got up and went out. When he walked to the door, he turned back and said: "Forgive me, my mother is here, excuse me!"
Ma Fang was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile: "General, if you please, it's time for our family to go back."
Jing Tianlie endured his temper and sent Eunuch Ma out.
When they arrived at the door, they saw several carriages, led by a man in black, who was the secret guard Cuiyu who used to protect Jing Heng.
"Father-in-law, walk slowly."
Jing Tianlie sent Ma Fang away first, then turned to the old lady and bowed to him: "The child is unfilial and has hurt his mother."
When the old lady saw Jing Tianlie, tears fell from her eyes. The expression on her face was both happy and sad. Her lips trembled a few times. She raised her hand and then gently put it down.
The old lady took a look at the mansion and entered the gate with the help of Sun Hongyan.
Cuiyu bowed to Jingtianlie and said, "My subordinates pay their respects to the general."
Jing Tianlie patted Cuttlefish on the shoulder and said, "You did a good job!"
Cuttlefish bowed and said, "I don't dare to take credit for things that are part of my job."
After Jing Heng's death, Cuiyu lurked in the capital and worked for Jing Tianlie.
When Long Chen cleared out the secret guards, Cuiyu escaped.
After the empress released Jingtianlie's family, Cuiyu had been secretly guarding them. After leaving the Jade Buddha Pass, Cuiyu acted as a vanguard to explore the way.
Jing Tianlie caught up with the old lady and helped him into the study to sit down.
"Hongyan, get out."
Sun Hongyan exited the study.
"The child is unfilial! He has made his mother suffer!"
Jing Tianlie knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
The old lady burst into tears and said: "Our Jing family has been loyal for generations, but you have become a traitor. How do you want me to see your father!" >
Jing Tianlie kowtowed and said: "Mother, the rabbit will die and the dog will cook. The empress is afraid of the power of our Jing family, and there is nothing we can do about it!"
The old lady said angrily: "Why didn't the Holy One take action against the Gongsun family? Why did he only take action against you?"
Jing Tianlie remained silent.
In the final analysis, it was not that the empress was trying to kill the donkey, but that Jing Tianlie was too arrogant and domineering. Not only did he support his troops and respect himself, he also dared to coerce the empress to marry the princess to the Jing family.
These are the actions of sycophants and traitors. How can the empress swallow her anger?
I didn't take action against Jing Tianlie before because no one could replace him.
Later, Long Chen appeared, and the empress immediately supported Long Chen and killed Jing Tianlie.
"That's it, the deal is done. It's useless to talk more. Since you have become a rebel, you should do it thoroughly!"
"When you get to Xixia, you will use the power of Xixia to counterattack the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and save face for my Jing family!"
This old lady is also a ruthless person, not the kind of loyal and loyal woman.
Jingtian Lie worshiped: "My child will definitely avenge his shame and swear not to be a human being until the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is destroyed!"
The old lady nodded and said, "Call my grandson over. I want to meet him."
Jing Tianlie immediately called Jing Feng over to meet, and the family was finally reunited.
News of the reunion of Jingtian Lie's family soon spread to the Red Flame Army, causing the sergeants to feel homesick, and some soldiers secretly considered returning to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Xixia Palace.
Ma Fang entered Shi Le's room, where Monk Kongji was drinking and eating meat with Shi Le.
"Your Majesty, Imperial Master."
"How is Jing Tianlie?"
Shi Le cut a piece of meat with a knife, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.
"Jing Tianlie's family members are here, his mother and wife are here."
Ma Fang reported.
Monk Kongji nodded slightly: "Eastern Zhou Dynasty really released him. Now that Jingtianlie's family is here, he can fight for our Xixia with all his heart."
Shi Le felt a little strange and asked: "Why did the empress release her family members? If it were me, I would definitely kill them all."
Monk Kongji chuckled and said: "The Empress wants to shake the morale of the army and make the Red Flame Army homesick and go home."
Shi Le frowned and said: "Near the Red Flame Army barracks
Arrange patrols and wait for the ride. Anyone who dares to escape will be shot to death!"
Ma Fang immediately went to make arrangements.
Shi Le asked: "National Preceptor, there was a Long Cheng'en in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The national power has been increasing. This is not the way to go. Should we tell the world?"
Monk Kongji shook his head and said: "Long Chengen has given the world so many benefits that it is useless to say so."
Shi Le felt a headache and said: "Then let the Eastern Zhou Dynasty's national power grow?"
Monk Kongji said: "The three kingdoms are evenly matched, and the world will maintain a balance of power. It is difficult for us to take action, but the barbarians are not among the three kingdoms, so we can let them take action."
Shi Le thought for a while and said: "Yes, Jingfeng used to be at Yanmen Pass and asked his father and son to go to the barbarian grassland after the winter."
"By the way, Imperial Master, you said you would send someone to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to explore Long Chengen's background. When will you go?"
Monk Kongji said: "The disciple of the poor monk is still in seclusion. After he comes out of seclusion, the poor monk will send him."
Shi Le cut another piece of meat and said, "Okay!"
Qiuxing Hall.
Long Chen dressed up carefully, picked up a folding fan, and said, "Xiang Ning, are you okay?"
Xiang Ning looked at the bronze mirror and said, "Sir, I'd better not go to that kind of place.
"No, if you don't go, the princess will whip me again when you come back."
In fact, Long Chen secretly went there several times, and this time he took Xiang Ning with him.
"Don't you like it very much, sir? I screamed so happily last time."
Xiang Ning made a face and mocked Long Chen in the bronze mirror.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Am I the kind of person who is abused?"
Long Chen denied it flatly.
Xiang Ning snorted, imitating Long Chen's tone and said: "Your Highness, please whip me and whip me, come on."
Long Chen frowned and complained: "Am I such a coquettish person?"
Xiang Ning nodded seriously: "Yes!"
Long Chen clicked his tongue and shook his head, saying: "Absolutely impossible. Don't tell others or ruin my reputation."
Xiang Ning pouted, finally changed her clothes and went out with Long Chen.
When they arrived outside the palace, He Wenbai and Hu Zhiheng were already waiting.
"Hey? Who is this handsome brother?"
He Wenbai had never seen Xiang Ning before, so he didn't recognize her. Long Chen smiled and said: "My maid Xiang Ning, the princess sent her to supervise me."
Hu Zhiheng smiled and said: "The general's maid supervises the general. Isn't this theft of supervision?"
Long Chen smiled and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, it will be terrible if the princess hears it."
The four of them laughed and rode towards Rouge Lane.
Embroidery Pavilion.
The embroiderer was embroidering upstairs, humming a little tune and in a good mood.
The silver needle shuttled back and forth on the silk fan. The silver needle was very fast and quickly embroidered a picture.
Boom, boom, boom.
"Come in."
A woman walked in, holding a letter in her hand, the seal was intact, with the word "ten thousand" written on it.
"Pavilion Master, there is a letter."
The embroiderer looked stern, put down her needle and thread, and accepted the letter.
The woman exits the room.
Opening the letter, Xiu Niang read it carefully, and the expression on her face suddenly dimmed.
At the entrance of Rouge Alley, Long Chen and the others entered. The place was as lively as ever.
Arriving in front of the embroidered pavilion, the parrot saw Xiang Ning and shouted: "So delicate, so delicate!"
This is considered a pass.
He Wenbai sighed: "I'm envious, brother Xiang Ning passed the test in one go."
A girl walked out and said with a smile: "General Long is here again, please come upstairs."
"You two gentlemen, please come in."
"Is this young man unfamiliar? What do you call him? Is he a good friend of the general?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "Miss Hongmei, please take care of my little brother, she is shy."
Hongmei took a closer look and knew that Xiang Ning was born as a girl. She was slightly surprised and said: "This brother is General."
Hongmei thought Xiang Ning liked girls, so she went to Xiu Pavilion to play.
Xiang Ning said shyly: "I will go upstairs with the general."
As he said that, he was about to follow, but Hongmei stopped him and said with a smile: "Upstairs is the room of the master of the pavilion. Only the general can go there. Please let this young master follow me to the backyard to play."
Hongmei wanted to tease her, so she took Xiang Ning's hand and walked inside.
After pushing Xiang Ning away, Long Chen went up to the second floor.
Open the door and go in, the embroiderer is inside.
"What are you embroidering?"
Long Chen closed the door, sat down next to Xiu Niang in a familiar manner, and naturally put his arms around her soft waist.
