Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 302 Arriving at the border town

They finally entered the city just as the city gate closed. Su Ying had been tired for a day and felt like her whole body was falling apart.

But the effect of evening primrose was only for a few hours, so she did not dare to slack off at all. Situ Jin took her to a quiet courtyard.

Su Ying rushed into the kitchen. Mu Ying was about to step forward to help, but she saw Situ Jin waving his hand towards him.

Su Ying took out the medicinal herbs and said behind her: "Help me light a fire."

The person behind didn't respond, but there was already a rustling sound. She crushed the herbs and took out the medicine jar. When she turned around, she saw that the person sitting by the stove making a fire was actually Situ Jin.

She was slightly surprised and shouted: "Why is it you?"

Situ Jin took the medicine jar from her hand and placed it on the fire, jokingly saying: "The woman sings and the husband follows!"

Then he pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Madam, come over here and sit down!"

Situ Jin took her hand and held it tightly. The two looked at each other quietly, with deep and deep affection in their eyes. Su Ying's cheeks turned red when he looked at her, and she whispered softly: "Why are you looking at me like this?" I?"

Situ Jin looked at his face that was reflected in the firelight and became more and more beautiful, and said softly: "How great would it be if we could just live like ordinary people, where you cook and I light the fire?"

Su Ying looked at him with a smile: "But you were born as a prince and have great responsibilities on your shoulders. How can we be like ordinary people? But husband, I will always be by your side. No matter what happens in the future, I and I Rui'er will always be with you!"

Situ Jin said with emotion: "A war made me see clearly the countless lives and deaths. I never felt that war was so cruel before. I just felt that this world has always been about the weak and the strong. With fighting for rights and some fighting for interests, this It's all a struggle between people. But since you and Rui'er came to me, I dislike war less and less. A war will destroy countless families and leave countless relatives."

"No one knows what will happen in the next second. The only thing we can control is the present moment." He looked at Su Ying steadily, with tenderness in his eyes: "And the person I want to accompany you most is you. The only person I want to see the most is you."

Su Ying smiled sweetly and leaned her head gently on his shoulder: "I wish to win the heart of one person and stay together forever."

Situ Jin gently leaned his head against hers, the smile in his eyes bright and warm.

Until the morning light shone brightly on the horizon, Su Ying finally made pills from evening primrose. She packed the pills carefully and told Mu Ying: "Hurry up and send them to Yancheng. Tell Luoluo that the effect will take effect three days after taking it, giving her more life." Pay attention to Shen Yu's condition, I have informed the military doctor about the acupuncture method so that she does not have to worry."

Su Ying had been busy all day and night, and her body was already sore and weak, so she fell asleep.

When she woke up again, the sky had darkened. Su Ying touched the empty bed next to her.

He stood up and opened the door, and saw Situ Jin talking to Mu Ying in the courtyard, with solemn expressions. Hearing the noise behind him, he turned around and saw Su Ying waking up. He gave Mu Ying a few instructions and turned around. Walking towards Su Ying: "You're awake, but are you hungry?"

Su Ying nodded. Seeing that his face was still serious and not relaxed at all, she couldn't help but asked worriedly: "Husband, what happened?"

Situ Jin thought for a moment and decided to tell Su Ying.

"The border city was originally the fiefdom of Prince Su. Since his death, the Ministry of War sent several ministers to take over the affairs of the border city, but they all died on the way to take office due to various accidents. After the beginning of the Northern Liao Dynasty, there was also a movement in the Western Region. With the intention of invading the border town, his father sent the four emperor brothers to check the authenticity of the border town. The father was afraid that his brother would get into trouble on the way, so he detoured to the Western Region on the pretext of taking over the military affairs of Lincheng. No one who knew about this In order to avoid being suspected, the emperor only brought a few guards."

"But the emperor's brother has been missing since he entered the boundary of the border city. My father sent several groups of people here but could not find any clues. It was not until the war in Beiliao ended that my father sent someone to pass the news to me. Unexpectedly, we I came to the border town and I didn’t receive the news until just now.”

Su Ying was startled. No wonder they met the Sixth Prince of the Western Region in the deep mountains. It seemed that something must have happened to Situ Jing, otherwise he wouldn't have disappeared quietly from the border town for no reason.

And why did the Sixth Prince of the Western Regions get into trouble near the border town? Prince Su was always cruel and ruthless. He must have hidden private soldiers when he was stationed in the border town, otherwise how could he dare to blatantly force the palace in the capital.

Su Ying thought for a while and asked: "Then who is in charge of the border town now?"

Situ Jin ordered someone to bring the food, and while they were eating, he said:

"Back then, this side city was given to Prince Su because the Queen Mother asked the late emperor. The officials Prince Su brought to the border town were all carefully selected by the Queen Mother. The original lord of this side city was named Li Yu. He was the first A general under the emperor, when the border city fought in the Western Regions, the emperor was still the prince. The battle was quite tragic. Almost all the generals around the emperor were killed in the battle. Li Yu also suffered a lot in order to save the emperor. Seriously injured."

"As a result, he could no longer go to the battlefield. The late emperor was grateful for his life-saving grace. After ascending the throne, he made him the lord of the border town. Later, Prince Su came to the border town. Not long after, Li Yu took his family out for fun. After being attacked by a pack of wolves, the whole family died on the border between the border town and the Western Region."

Su Ying paused while holding the food with her chopsticks. After Prince Su arrived, the family had an accident. With Prince Su's personality, Su Ying suspected that this was no accident.

"Didn't my father suspect that Prince Su did this?"

Situ Jin's eyes lit up: "My lady is so smart. That Li Yu has an upright character. The late emperor mentioned it to his father many times. With Li Yu in the border town, the Western Regions would definitely not dare to set foot in the border town."

"He was guarding the border town, but something happened to him there. Of course, my father was suspicious of this. After Li Yu's accident, my father sent people from the Ministry of Justice to investigate, but no problems were found. The scene of the accident looked like a wolf. Group attack.”

Su Ying asked in confusion: "There is no mountain range connecting the border town with the Western Region. How could this wolf pack suddenly appear on their way to play? Besides, if they knew there was danger in that place, why would Li Yu take his family there?"

Situ Jin smiled slightly: "This matter is the strangest part of this case. But at that time, people from the Ministry of Justice investigated for several months and found no other clues. Later, the matter was dropped. My father originally wanted to send someone to Others were the lords of this city, but Prince Su recommended his aide Zhou Wei. Not long after his father ascended the throne, there was no force to compete with the Queen Mother, so he had no choice but to use Zhou Wei, which left the hidden danger today. "
