Chapter 1319

In the dark room, Chen Qiao sat cross-legged on the bed, staring straight ahead.

Just now, Chen Qiao had listened to the conversation between Li Lizhi and Fu Lan in the courtyard verbatim.

At first, when he just made this decision, Chen Qiao really did not expect that Li Lizhi would say such a thing, but because of this, the guilt in his heart became stronger.

The wind outside the house was getting stronger and stronger. Chen Qiao got off the bed, walked to the door step by step and opened the closed door from the inside. Suddenly, a gust of wind carrying the cool breath of the summer night rushed into Chen Qiao's room. in the room.

The clothes on his back were blown up by the wind, and Chen Qiao stood at the door, letting his clothes and hair be messed up by the strong wind, but he never closed the door and went back into the room.

"Boom—"

A flash of lightning flashed in the distance, followed by a burst of thunder that shook people's eardrums.

All of a sudden, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the lightning and thunder became closer together.

In a short while, the unusually heavy rain fell in a hurry. The big raindrops fell and hit the originally dry floor. It didn't take long for them to gather into small streams.

Soon, a rain curtain was drawn under the eaves. Chen Qiao looked at the rain curtain outside the door in a daze, sighed softly, closed the door again and returned to the room.

On the other side of the yard, Li Lizhi was sitting by the window without any sleepiness, looking at the pouring rain outside the window in a daze, wondering what she was thinking.

The candle in Fu Lan's room was still not extinguished. She looked at Yao girl who was already asleep on the bed, and let out a slight sigh.

Under the rumbling thunder, everyone in the general's mansion finally fell into a dream.

When Chen Qiao woke up the next morning, he had already heard the heavy rain outside, and the bright sunlight fell on his room through the window, exuding a strong heat.

Chen Qiao frowned and sat up from the bed, washed and changed and walked out of the room.

After a night of heavy rain, even though today's sunshine was extremely blazing, some rainwater from yesterday still remained on the ground, and there were still round drops of water on the banana trees planted in the yard, rolling down to the ground drop by drop.

Standing outside the door, Chen Qiao took a deep breath, stretched his waist and walked out of his yard.

"Qiao Lang is up?"

In the Pengwu courtyard, Li Lizhi and Fu Lan were playing with their children. There was a circle of slowly flowing streams around the spacious gazebo with gauze curtains in the middle, and the wide eaves of the gazebo just covered the circle of streams. huddled in the shadows.

The width and depth of the stream are just right, just right for half-sized children like Brother Han and the others to play and enjoy the cool air in it.

Chen Qiao walked between the two of them and sat down, the clothes on his body were opened more with Chen Qiao's movements.

Li Lizhi smiled and shook her head, then poured Chen Qiao a cup of herbal tea, "It's almost noon now, does Qiao Lang still have breakfast?"

After drinking the herbal tea from Li Lizhi's hand, Chen Qiao looked at Li Lizhi amusedly, "You know I'm late, but you still come to make fun of me."

Li Lizhi shrank her neck and said nothing more.

Compared to Li Lizhi's business as usual, Fu Lan looked preoccupied.

Thinking of what Li Lizhi and Fu Lan said in the yard last night, Chen Qiao suppressed the smile on his lips, and looked at the two seriously.

"I have something to tell you." Chen Qiao said in a deep voice.

Hearing Chen Qiao's words, Fu Lan and Li Lizhi looked at each other first, and then Li Lizhi looked at Chen Qiao with a smile and said, "Qiao Lang is not in a hurry, wait for lunch later, the children are going to take a nap Let's talk later."

Knowing that Li Lizhi was worried that the children would make trouble when they heard it, Chen Qiao didn't insist on it any more, just nodded and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Fu Lan sighed inaudibly, then got up and walked to the children, and together with the children, they soaked their feet in the stream.

"Fu Lan, this is..."

Chen Qiao moved closer to Li Lizhi and asked in a low voice.

Li Lizhi also looked in the direction of Fu Lan, curled the corner of her mouth, and gave Chen Qiao a sideways look, "Qiao Lang is probably the only person in this world who can make sister Lan show such an expression."

Hearing this, Chen Qiao was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled helplessly.

"Sister Lan felt that Qiao Lang was hiding something from us last night, that's why she looked a little unhappy today."

With that said, Li Lizhi looked back at Chen Qiao again.

"Qiao Lang, although Sister Lan and I want you to stay in Chang'an City and stay by our side, no matter what you want to do, we will support you." Li Lizhi said to Chen Qiao.

Speaking of this matter, Chen Qiao remembered that Fu Lan had also told him earlier that he would go back to Dongnu Country for a while.

"Sister Lan also told me about this matter."

When Chen Qiao asked about this matter, Li Lizhi nodded in response.

"However, because Qiao Lang has been busy with other things since he came in, Sister Lan procrastinated and did not leave."

Chen Qiao frowned and nodded. If Fu Lan really wanted to go back to Dongnu Country, it might be a better decision for him to choose to go to Yunzhou City at this time.

Attract all the potential dangerous factors that may cause danger to them to your side, and then no one will bother you whether it is Chang'an City or Dongnu Country.

"I just ask Qiao Lang." Li Lizhi looked at Chen Qiao with a serious expression.

"You ask." Chen Qiao said.

Li Lizhi took a deep breath and said, "Is what Qiao Lang is about to do dangerous?"

Although he didn't want Li Lizhi to worry, Chen Qiao was even more unwilling to lie to her.

Seeing that Chen Qiao nodded as she expected, Li Lizhi couldn't help but sigh after all.

After lunch and finally coaxing the children to sleep, Chen Qiao returned to the Pengwu courtyard together with Li Lizhi and Fu Lan.

"I have something to tell you."

Unexpectedly, before Chen Qiao opened his mouth, Fu Lan had already said a word.

Hearing this, Chen Qiao and Li Lizhi's eyes all focused on Fu Lan for a moment.

Looking at the two people in front of her, Fu Lan took a deep breath, and said in a gentle tone: "A few days ago, Dongnvguo wrote to say that Shanxiangguo is not doing well, and wants me to go back as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation."

Hearing this sentence, the remaining two fell silent immediately.

Fu Lan's eyes wandered back and forth between the two of them, seeing that the two of them had been silent for a while, she continued: "Besides my mother and queen, the closest person I have been to since I was a child is the Shanxiang Kingdom, and besides, the Dongnu Kingdom is now It is true that there is no one else who can preside over the overall situation, I can't drag it on any longer."

"When do you plan to leave?" Chen Qiao asked.

"If you are ready, you may be able to set off in three or four days." Fu Lan said.

"In such a hurry?" Li Lizhi looked at Fu Lan in surprise.

Fu Lan nodded and said: "Shan Xiangguo's body won't last long, I'm afraid I won't be able to see her for the last time if I go back too late, and I'm even more afraid that the East Women's Congress will fall into chaos because of this."

After another long silence, Chen Qiao finally nodded.

"Okay, I get it." Chen Qiao looked at Fu Lan and said, "Just do what you should do, and don't worry about us."

Fu Lan pursed her lips, and continued, "I might take Yiyatou and Yaoyatou back together. As for Brother Yu...let him stay in Chang'an City."
