Su Qinghou had been talking in front of his wife's grave for an unknown amount of time. At this time, Xiao Lianqin's figure also entered the cemetery.
She felt very unhappy when she saw her master sitting in front of her mother's tombstone, feeling dejected.
Xiao Lianqin first kowtowed a few times in front of his wife's grave. Strangely enough, some flowers in front of Qilan's grave actually swayed slightly and bent their stems towards Xiao Lianqin, as if they were nodding, as if they were bowing to thank her.
Could it be that Qilan Quanxia was aware that she was grateful to Xiao Lianqin for her loyalty to her husband and for taking good care of her husband?
Xiao Lianqin stood up, regained her female voice and said to Su Qinghou: "Master, I have summoned everyone in the South Courtyard. They have been waiting for a long time. The total number of people in the South Courtyard back then was 1,960.
Ten people. After the master disappeared, Gu Lingfeng surrendered again, and more than 400 people were unwilling to work for the Beifu so they left. The disciple has now ordered people to release the wind, the southern territory has been recovered, and the master has returned. These old troops will come back after hearing this.
Qu Wuhui will be able to arrive tomorrow, let him take a good look at his injuries to Master."
To be honest, Su Qinghou was seriously injured this time.
The right chest was almost collapsed by Linghu Zanghun.
When he abolished Gu Lingfeng's martial arts before, he could barely hold on.
Su Qinghou said softly to Xiao Lianqin: "Lianqin, how old are you and are you from the South Academy? I can't remember it."
Xiao Lianqin said: "Master, I entered the South Campus when I was nine years old. When I was nine years old, because my father was beaten to death by the landlord, my mother was seriously ill, and my family was very poor, I disguised myself to steal money from rich families and give it to good friends.
Healing a disease. One time, the disciple was caught by mistake. The rich man tied him up and paraded him in public. He also put the disciple in a pig cage and drowned him in a pond. The master happened to pass by, asked the reason, paid the rich man money and rescued the disciple, and then
He then took his disciple back to the South Campus. He also asked a doctor to treat my mother. Knowing that the disciple liked to disguise himself, he also gave the disciple a book on disguise collected in the South Campus. The master is as kind as a mountain to his disciple..."
Su Qinghou said: "So that's it. Lianqin, you are really a great gift from God to me, Su Qinghou."
Xiao Lianqin hurriedly said: "Master's words are serious. Master saved my disciple's life, and my achievements today are all thanks to Master. Master's great kindness will be difficult for me to repay in my lifetime."
Su Qinghou leaned against his wife's tombstone. He felt very tired. Now in front of this beloved disciple, this Su Qinghou who was always strong and unyielding in front of outsiders, and whose expression remained unchanged even when Mount Tai collapsed, no longer concealed his inner fragility.
Already.
No matter how powerful he is, he is still human after all.
A person with seven emotions and six desires, who eats, drinks, and poops all the same.
He then said to Xiao Lianqin: "Lianqin, after experiencing such a thing, Master feels very tired and even unable to do his job. Over the years, I have done many things, some right and some wrong. Whether it is right or wrong, everything
Let future generations comment. In short, Master has made up his mind. After the Linghu clan is destroyed, if Master is still alive, Master will find a quiet place to retire."
Xiao Lianqin said emotionally: "Master, no matter where you go, please let the disciple follow you and serve you. The disciple will sew clothes for you, cook for you, and talk to the master... Master, doesn't he have a bad memory?
I'll help you remember..."
After hearing Xiao Lianqin's words, Su Qinghou said no more. He stretched out his hand and held Xiao Lianqin's hand tightly. A warm and gratified smile appeared on his face.
…
The largest gathering hall in the south courtyard was filled with people from the south courtyard. It was completely dark.
Since the hall was full, people from the south courtyard were standing outside the hall.
There were more than a thousand people inside and outside the hall.
Excluding the female relatives, servants, young and old, there are still more than 600 people in the south courtyard who can fight.
After constant consumption, Nanyuan still has such strength, which shows its strong strength. No wonder it can stand in the world for hundreds of years.
Long Zhanmo, deputy general manager of the south hospital, and Huang Douzi, Su Qingmu's brother-in-law, stood at the front. Now that Gu Lingfeng and Xiao Lianqin have not shown up, they have become the leaders.
All of them were very excited at this moment because they already knew that Lin Yi had led his people through a brutal and bloody battle to regain the southern border. Moreover, Senior Brother Gu, who had always disappointed them, finally stepped back from the brink and led his people to rebel against the enemy in public.
And the most exciting news is that Xiao Lianqin is not dead yet and is back.
They had previously received an order from Xiao Lianqin, asking everyone from the south courtyard to gather in the gathering hall.
So Gu Lingfeng dragged Yi Yingning out of the house, but Yi Yingning didn't see anyone.
They have been waiting for almost an hour, but Xiao Lianqin has not shown up yet, and neither has Gu Lingfeng.
Just when everyone was getting a little anxious, they suddenly heard a voice shouting: "The Marquis is here!"
When everyone heard this voice, they even thought that they had heard it wrong.
Su Qinghou has been missing for more than two years, and there are various rumors.
Some said that Su Qinghou actually died from serious injuries, some said that Su Qinghou was crazy, and some said that Su Qinghou saw through the Jianghu affair and went overseas.
After more than two years of expectation, Su Qinghou has not come back, and there is no news about Su Qinghou. This has made people in the South Campus feel cold. They no longer have any hope that Su Qinghou will come back again.
But now they heard three words - Lord Marquis is here!
At this moment, everyone in the hall turned their attention to the outside of the hall.
Everyone outside the hall turned their attention to a corridor, because the sound came from that corridor.
Then, under everyone's gaze, Su Qinghou's figure appeared in the corridor.
He was as before, dressed in clean silver brocade clothes and looking majestic.
It's like he never left.
Only this time he was no longer followed by several disciples, but only one person, Xiao Lianqin.
Xiao Lianqin said loudly again: "Master Hou is here!"
So the people in the courtyard separated from each other, and a "corridor" emerged.
Just like back then.
Then Su Qinghou walked into this "human corridor".
At this time, everyone seemed to wake up from a dream and burst into joy. Many people cried with joy.
"Master Hou, you are finally back!"
"Master Hou, we thought you left us alone..."
"Lianqin, you're back too, haha, great, great!"
People were excited, shouting, crying, and telling Su Qinghou and Xiao Lianqin from both sides...
In the past two years or so, Nanyuan without Su Qinghou has been like a person who has lost his soul and turned into a walking corpse. Su Qinghou is the soul of Nanyuan. Without Su Qinghou, Nanyuan has become a zombie.
It already exists in name only.
Now, South Campus has a "soul" again!
Although Su Qinghou looked calm, he was also very excited. He nodded to people frequently.
Su Qinghou walked into the hall, and everyone in the hall also made way. Su Qinghou walked to the chair where he sat and sat down.
A maid brought a cup of Su Qinghou's favorite tea.
Xiao Lianqin stood beside Su Qinghou.
Su Qinghou picked up the tea bowl, used the lid to gently remove a few tea leaves, took a sip, and then put down the tea bowl.
Then he raised his hand to signal the jubilant people to silence.
Soon, there was silence inside and outside the hall.
Everyone's eyes turned to Su Qinghou.
Su Qinghou asked Xiao Lianqin beside him: "Are Lin Yi and Jin'er arriving soon?"
Xiao Lianqin said: "My subordinates reported earlier that it will only take a cup of tea at most."
Su Qinghou nodded and said, "Then I will finish this bowl of tea."
