After leaving the An family ancestral mausoleum, the queen wanted to meet Xu Qingling, so An Huajin sent her to Xiuling Mountain.
Although the queen had never met Xu Qingling, An Qichen and Xu Qingling had been engaged for a long time. She had always known that An Qichen later died in battle, and Xu Qingling died in love and was rescued by An Huajin. After concealing it, she thought Xu Qingling was dead. Thinking of that time,
, she couldn't help but sigh with discomfort in her heart. Now that she knew that she was alive and had given birth to such a smart An Yining, she was so happy that she could no longer simply describe it as joy.
When the queen met Xu Qingling, the two of them cried sadly again.
Chu Xiyun was a crybaby. When she saw the Queen and Xu Qingling crying, she thought of the old King Nanyang and couldn't help but cry too.
An Huajin sat aside and watched the three women crying together, and reluctantly hid from the door.
Chen Bing saw An Huajin standing in the cold wind, walked over to her, and bowed her hands in greeting, "Little princess, why are you standing here blowing the wind? You have caught the wind and cold."
An Huajin rubbed his eyebrows and said, "They are so capable of crying."
Chen Bing said, "The old prince passed away, and my wife cried when she thought about it. She has cried several times."
"How is my sister-in-law's health? I see she has lost weight again." An Huajin asked.
Chen Bing said, "It's okay. I just miss the young master so much. The old prince is gone again. Although she is not sick, she is getting thinner and thinner."
An Huajin thought for a while, "The conspiracy of the Battle of Yuxueling has been made public, Ning'er's identity has also been made public, His Majesty has issued an edict to abdicate, and my aunt has reconciled with him and returned to Nanyang.
I think my sister-in-law doesn’t have to live here anymore, so I plan to take her back to Nanyang Prince’s Mansion so that I and my aunt can be companions.”
Chen Bing nodded, "Madam, are you willing to go back?"
"Let me advise, it shouldn't be difficult with my aunt here. My sister-in-law can't really live here for a long time and never go out for the rest of her life." An Huajin looked at Chen Bing, "If my sister-in-law is willing to leave and return to Nanyang Prince's Mansion, there is no need to stay here.
The troops are ready, General Chen, what are your plans?"
Chen Bing said, "I heard that Nan Qi and Nan Liang raised troops from Mobei? What are the little princess's plans?"
"I will counterattack Southern Qi and Nanliang in a few days," Anhua Jin said.
Chen Bing nodded, was silent for a while, and said, "Originally, if Madam was unwilling to come out of here, I made up my mind to protect Madam, but if Madam is willing to return to Nanyang Palace, I won't be needed, so I want to go to the battlefield with the little princess.
I wonder if the little princess can take me in? After all, I have been isolated from the world for eight years. I am not as good as before. I have been away from the Nanyang Army for too long, and I have long been unfamiliar with the way of transporting troops. But as an ordinary soldier, I can still contribute.
”
An Huajin said, "General Chen is so humble. Even if you have been here for eight years, your military books have not been abandoned. When you return to the Nanyang Army, you can pick them up immediately."
Chen Bing said, "I heard that the young princess has so many talented people now that she doesn't dare to entrust her to the big ones."
An Huajin smiled and looked at him, "General Chen, actually, I have no objection to you being with my sister-in-law."
Chen Bing was stunned.
An Huajin said, "My brother is in heaven, and he must also hope that my sister-in-law will live a happy life. If you can accompany my sister-in-law throughout her life and give her happiness, my brother Jiuquanxia will also be happy."
Chen Bing's face turned pale, "Little princess..."
An Huajin looked at him, "I speak from the bottom of my heart. General Chen doesn't have to feel guilty. I just hope that my sister-in-law has a good life."
Chen Bing lowered his head, and after a while, he raised it. Although his face was still a little pale, his expression was calm, "I don't dare to think too much about Madam, Madam only has the eldest son in her heart, and even if I are willing, Madam won't be willing.
”
In eight years, he has gotten to know Xu Qingling very well. An Qichen is her life. She is living now just for An Yining. If she had not had children, she would not have wanted to live long ago, let alone choose him to marry.
No matter who it is, she is afraid that she will not be willing to marry him.
Her heart had already died with An Qichen.
An Huajin was silent for a while after hearing this, and sighed, "General Chen, are you sure?"
"Sure." Chen Bing met An Huajin's eyes, "I don't want to tarnish the relationship between my wife and the eldest son. The little princess must never mention this again in the future."
"That's alright." An Huajin stopped. Since Chen Bing could see clearly, she didn't bother to do anything. She thought for a while and said, "General Chen, if my sister-in-law returns to Nanyang Palace, you should also go back to Nanyang Palace."
! I am going to send troops, and the female relatives of Nanyang Palace also need someone to protect them. You should stay in Nanyang Palace, guard the house, and protect your aunt, sister-in-law, and cousin! They are more important."
She thought that although Chen Bing would not have anything to do with Xu Qingling, he would definitely be happy to stand aside and watch her for the rest of his life.
"That's fine. I'll listen to the little princess." Chen Bing nodded.
An Huajin estimated the time and felt that the three of them were almost done crying, so she returned to the room. Unexpectedly, the three of them were still crying. She stood at the door for a while, and then entered the room when she heard that the crying had subsided. "Cousin, where have you been?" Chu Xiyun asked with red eyes.
"Go out for a walk." An Huajin naturally wouldn't say that you were crying too hard, so I hid out.
The queen turned her head and exposed her, "She must have disliked us for crying so much that she hid away."
An Huajin coughed and said, "No, I just want to talk to General Chen."
The queen looked at her suspiciously.
An Huajin told her plan, "I want my sister-in-law to go back with us."
She looked at Xu Qingling, stepped forward, and held her hand, "Sister-in-law, Ning'er's identity has been made public. Now that my aunt is back, please follow us back to Nanyang Palace! You are the only one here, and it is deserted.
I have returned to Nanyang Prince’s Mansion, with my aunt as my companion. If you have nothing to do, you can drink tea, chat, and enjoy flowers.”
"Yes, don't stay here anymore, go back!" the queen said, "I also like someone to talk with me."
Xu Qingling had no intention of leaving since she moved in. Now when she saw An Huajin and the Queen saying this, she looked at them and said, "I have never thought about going out."
"Then think about it now." The queen said, "I have never thought before that after entering the palace and becoming a queen, I can one day go home with that faint king and Li. Isn't this coming back? People grow up in this life.
Very, Ning'er is still young, you can't waste yourself by hiding here, look at how thin you are, you still have to watch Ning'er marry and have children, and indulge in grandchildren, all that Qichen couldn't see.
Help him take a look. When he gets old in the future, he can talk to him when he goes down there."
Xu Qingling was persuaded, "Okay, I'll go back."
The queen was happy, "Then you pack up quickly, we will leave tomorrow. Little An'er can't stay with us for too long, she has to prepare to send troops."
Xu Qingling's face changed slightly, "Isn't it dangerous to send troops?"
"It's not dangerous, sister-in-law, don't worry." An Huajin smiled, "Even if it's dangerous, it's for Nanliang. They should be afraid of me."
Xu Qingling's face was still a little pale, "Sister, I'm really scared, you..."
Back then, before An Qichen went to the battlefield, he smiled and said to her, just wait, I will definitely beat up Nan Qi and Nan Liang so that they will not dare to come again. It is true that Nan Qi and Nan Liang have not dared to come again in the past eight years, but he
Didn't come back either.
"I will be safe, and I will avenge my father and brothers." An Huajin held her hand, "Sister-in-law, believe me."
Her tone is not serious, but she has a calming power that makes people believe.
Xu Qingling nodded unconsciously, "Okay, I believe you."
So, Xu Qingling began to order people to pack things, and at the same time asked An Huajin, "What about General Chen?"
An Huajin looked at her, "Sister-in-law, General Chen will follow you back to Nanyang Palace. After I send troops, he will guard Nanyang Palace and protect you."
Xu Qingling pursed her lips and said, "Sister, when you come back after victory, choose a marriage for General Chen! In the past eight years, he has been delayed because of me and Ning'er."
An Huajin opened his mouth and said, "Sister-in-law, in fact, my brother Jiuquanxia also wants you to live a happy life. He definitely doesn't want you to live a lonely life like this. Why don't you... not consider General Chen?"<
/p>
She didn't want to open this mouth, and was impatient to be someone else's matchmaker, but recently the job of matchmaker seemed to be on her head. In addition, only her identity could open this door, and she could bring it up like this with Chen Bing and Xu Qingling. Xu Qingling shook her head, her eyes clear and firm, "Sister, it's impossible for me. I only have your brother in my heart, and I can never let go of anyone else. General Chen is a very good soldier. I'd better not miss him. I don't want to wrong your brother, even if
Under the Nine Springs."
An Huajin thought to herself that Chen Bing was indeed a sensible person. She nodded and said without saying more, "Sister-in-law, in this case, General Chen's marriage will be decided by himself in the future!"
She thought that Chen Bing probably didn't want to marry either.
Xu Qingling nodded, "That's fine. After you come back victorious, I will also advise General Chen. Sister, you don't have to think that I am lonely. I have Ning'er, I have you, and now my aunt is back, and my brother is here too.
The Prince of Nanyang has joined the Nanyang Army. I have so many relatives, so I am not alone."
An Huajin nodded and stopped talking. Since my sister-in-law thinks this life is good, then so be it!
