At dusk, when Yue Wushuang came over again, she brought someone in.

"Master Shen, this is Chen Qi, he is the one who rescued you." After introducing Chen Qi to Shen Xixi, Yue Wushuang walked to the table and set out the dishes and chopsticks.

After a good sleep, Shen Xixi felt that she had some strength now. When she saw her savior, she held her hand on the bed and bowed down, "I can't repay the kindness of saving my life. Please accept this little lady's bow."

Seeing this, Chen Qi quickly stepped forward to stop him, "I can't, the girl is still injured."

Yue Wushuang on the side set the dishes and chopsticks, and walked to Shen Xixi to support her.

"To be honest, I came here this time because I have something important to ask of you." After looking at Shen Xixi's pale and beautiful cheeks, Chen Qi stepped aside and sat down, resting his palms on his knees.

Seeing his restraint, Shen Xixi spoke softly, "Mr. Chen, speak as soon as possible."

"This..." Looking at Yue Wushuang, who was still busy, Chen Qi stopped talking.

He knew that Miss Yue was a good person, but the matter was so important that the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Helping Shen Xixi to sit up next to the pillow, Yue Wushuang stood up straight, "Master and Brother Chen will talk first. There is still soup simmering in the kitchen. Wushuang will go get it."

Nodding towards Shen Xixi, Yue Wushuang opened the door and went out.

After Yue Wushuang left, the room became quiet.

"Mr. Chen, if you want to know something, you might as well just say it." After pondering for a while, Shen Xixi spoke first.

"Miss Shen, do you know the people in the carriage?" Taking a deep breath, Chen Qi spoke out the questions in his heart.

"...Xi'er doesn't understand what Mr. Chen means." Shen Xixi's eyes flashed when she heard the carriage, and she looked at Chen Qi with inquiry in her eyes.

The man in front of him was extremely tall and muscular, with a dark complexion, a loyal and honest face, and was wearing black armor.

Thinking of what her second uncle said in her ear before he died, Shen Xixi lowered her long eyelashes slightly.

"Girl, don't worry too much. Chen can't speak. The person in the carriage is very important to me. I hope the girl can tell Chen what she knows." Knowing that Shen Xixi had doubts, Chen Qi hurriedly explained.

"Mr. Chen, don't worry. Xi'er didn't think much about it. I just want to ask you something before answering." Seeing the person in front of her blushing and looking at a loss, Shen Xixi said softly.

"Girl please."

"What is your relationship with that person?"

"To be honest, as far as Chen is concerned, the general is his biological father." Thinking of the general, Chen Qi's tone lowered with sadness.

"Sir, what do you want to know about that person?" Infected by the other person's sad mood, Shen Xixi's voice became very soft.

"What on earth did the general go through outside, and why did he die so tragically?" Chen Qi clenched his fists, with a frightening chill in his eyes.

"Sir, do you know this?" Suppressing the moisture in her eyes, Shen Xixi put her hand under the pillow and took out the black token and tiger charm.

"This...is this?" Looking at the tiger charm and token in Shen Xixi's hand, Chen Qi's eyes widened in disbelief.

"My Shen is Shen Yu's Shen." Shen Xixi's lowered eyes slowly raised and met Chen Qi's shocked eyes, Shen Xixi's voice was cold and firm.

"My subordinate, Chen Qi, meets the eldest lady!" For a moment, Chen Qi remembered what the general had said before about the Shen family far away in the capital, and thought of Shen Xixi's identity.

"Sir, there is no need to be polite. Get up quickly. Today, Xi'er is no longer the eldest lady." She raised her hand to signal the other party to stand up, and Shen Xixi sat back up again, leaning on the backrest.

"The general said that you will always be the eldest lady of the Shen family." Looking at the thin figure of the woman on the bed, Chen Qi spoke seriously.

Because of his responsibility, the general devoted his life to them. As a deputy, sometimes after training, he heard the general talk about things outside.

He knew that the general was from a noble family and had an older brother whom he loved.

Three years ago, when he learned that the Shen family was in trouble, the general went out of the valley once, hoping to bring back his brother's only flesh and blood.

When the results came back, there was only one person.

After inquiries, we learned that the legitimate daughter of the Shen family was missing and her whereabouts were unknown.

Over the years, the general would go out for a period of time every once in a while, just to look for his brother's daughter.

Now, the eldest lady has been found, but the general...has left.

Thinking of this, Chen Qi's eyes couldn't help but moisten.

"Miss, do you know who killed the general?" Chen Qi raised his head to fight back tears, his eyes firm.

The general must not be allowed to die in vain.

"Marquis Ding'an, Fu Minghe, his son, Fu Youxing, and a woman, Lin Zhixi." Shen Xixi clenched her teeth tightly as she squeezed the token in her hand, hatred bursting out of her eyes.

The Fu family owes her life, and she will take it back one by one!

"Brother Chen, the lady just woke up and is still very weak. It's better not to get too excited." Outside, Yue Wushuang waited for a long time. Seeing that the two of them were not finished yet, she couldn't help but remind her.

Seeing that the sky is getting darker and darker, if we wait any longer, the dinner will be cold.

"Miss, please have a good rest and leave the rest to us." After being reminded, Chen Qi came back to his senses.

Looking at Shen Xixi's increasingly pale face, I felt filled with regret.

The girl was delicate and seriously injured, so she deserved a good rest.

"It's okay, Brother Chen, Xi'er has one more thing to ask of you."

"Miss, please speak."

"The Black Iron Army has been here all along. I wonder if we can check the situation outside?" Counting the days, the team sending off the bride should have reached the Qushui area.

The barbarians are fierce and bloodthirsty, and I don't know if he can handle them.

"Don't worry, Miss. After the disaster of the Shen family, the general has cultivated our hidden stakes in the outside world. In the past, the general was responsible for contacting us. This time, the general told me before leaving." Chen Qi answered softly after hearing what the young lady meant.

"There is no news about the general before. I have contacted my friends in Pingyang, but there has been no reply, so I sent people to check under the cliff from time to time."

"Because the hidden stake at the foot of the mountain betrayed his second uncle." As expected, the partner Chen Qi mentioned was Xiao Mu.

"what?"

"They betrayed the second uncle and directly handed the second uncle into the hands of the enemy." Thinking that she had left the second uncle to Xiao Mu's care that night, Shen Xixi's heart seemed to be torn apart by countless big hands.

Excruciating pain.

"You bastards, how could they..." Chen Qi was furious as his chest kept rising and falling.

I never expected that it would be broken into the hands of my own people.

"Brother Chen, Xi'er wants to know where the Hu people are stationed in Qushui Realm. Fu Minghe is in the wedding party. He colludes with the Hu people to murder Dayu." Looking at Chen Qi steadily, Shen Xixi's tone increased. , word for word.

She had never understood before, what exactly did Fu Minghe want to gain by colluding with the Hu people?

Until Fu Minghe came to Yuxi Temple.

Shen Xixi understood Fu Minghe's ambition.

I also know what Li Wanrou's words before her death in her previous life were about to ruin things.

Fu Minghe wanted to use the Hu people to gain control of Dayu!
