The imperial brother kneels and begs me to marry my daughter-in-law

"How is it? Has Zhou's army retreated?" Lin Xiu retreated for a long time and did not see Zhou Guo's large army retreating. As soon as the soldiers who went to inquire came back, Lin Xiu grabbed their arms and questioned them.

The soldier was out of breath, with a look of joy on his face: "It's back! I've seen the big troops back. It seems that they should have retreated completely, and there are no pursuers!"

"That's good! That's good!" Lin Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and she quickly walked towards the Shunshui city wall: "You tell the soldiers guarding the gate to prepare to open the city gate for our army immediately!"

"promise!"

Lin Xiu walked up to the city wall, and she really saw dust flying in the distance. Although she couldn't see how many people there were, she could tell from the color of the armor that they were soldiers of Zhou State.The situation is dangerous this time, and it is not easy for Zhou Jun to escape.But fortunately, they are all back, as long as they enter the city gate of Shunshui, they can fight back when His Majesty's reinforcements arrive!

Soon, Lin Xiu saw a person riding a horse approaching the city gate first.Lin Xiu took a closer look: "It's Rufeng! Quick, open the city gate for General Rufeng!"

Riding on a horse, Rufeng left the large troops behind her far away. She looked anxious, and as soon as she arrived at the city gate, the gate was already opened. Without hesitation, she quickly entered the city, dismounted and asked, "Where is the national teacher?"

"The national teacher is on the city wall!"

Rufeng rushed to the city wall, without a moment's rest.

"National teacher! National teacher!"

Lin Xiu heard Ru Feng calling her, and greeted her with a smile on her face: "Why did you run so fast, and didn't you follow the big team?"

"National teacher..." Rufeng suddenly stopped talking, with tears in his eyes, not knowing how to speak.

Lin Xiu's expression froze instantly. For some reason, she suddenly panicked, as if she had a strong premonition that something serious had happened.

"Rufeng, why do you have such an expression? But... something happened?" Lin Xiushang still had a glimmer of hope, she stabilized her mood, hoping that things would not be as bad as she thought.Suddenly, as if she had a heart-to-heart connection, Lin Xiu asked, "Why did you come back alone? Aren't you with Shu An? Where is Shu An?"

Rufeng lowered his head and choked with sobs, clenched his hands into fists, not knowing what to say.Lin Xiu panicked for a moment, Rufeng came back, the big army came back, what about Shu An, maybe... Her voice was trembling, and she still asked persistently: "Speak up! What happened, where is Shu An?"

"Princess she..."

"What's up with her?"

Rufeng was cruel, "The princess was taken away by Wu Kai."

Lin Xiu instantly felt as if the world was spinning, people were a little unsteady, her mind went blank, Shu An was captured by Wu Kai...

"It's all my fault! I fell into the enemy's tricks! The princess was taken away to save me. She was fine! National teacher, please punish me!" Rufeng knelt down in front of Lin Xiu, crying .

But Lin Xiu felt that she couldn't hear anything, and she didn't want to hear anything. Her mind was full of what Xiao Shu'an had to endure when he was kidnapped by that villain Wu Kai, and whether she could come back alive!

The large army at the city gate had already entered the city, with the sound of horseshoes and the sound of people, but Lin Xiu's world was completely silent.She seemed to be unable to hear everything in the outside world, and her mind seemed unable to turn. She had never felt this way before.She tried to force herself back to her senses, and kept murmuring: "I'm not yet sad, I'll find a way to save her. Save Shu'an...I'm going to save Shu'an."

As she spoke, her eyes circled blankly in the same place: "Save her... save her... find a way, find a way, I will find a way, I will definitely, Shu'an is waiting for me, waiting for me."

Lin Xiu kept patting her head with her hands, but she couldn't think of a solution, but God knows why, her IQ seemed to evaporate, and only Shu An was crying and waiting for her to rescue her, only Wu Kai would bully Shu An, The scene of beating Shu An.She can't think of anything!

"Ah!" Lin Xiu kicked the city wall vigorously one after another angrily: "Why! Why! Why can't I think of a way! Why am I a pig at the critical moment! I'm a waste!"

After venting vigorously a few times, Lin Xiucai stopped panting heavily. At this moment, she was already in tears, and she seemed to be unable to feel the stinging pain of her toes.Her whole body seemed to be numb, including her thinking.Rufeng knelt in front of Lin Xiu, deeply repenting, at this moment she wished she could replace Xiao Shuan.

Chen Yunjian climbed up the city wall and saw that Lin Xiu was in a daze, her hair was messy, and her eyes were empty, as if she couldn't notice anything outside.When Chen Yunjian was on the battlefield, he saw the matter of Rufeng and Xiao Shuan, but he had no time to take care of it, he had to lead the army to retreat first.Looking at the situation in front of him, he probably knew what had happened.

"National teacher, no matter what happens, let's go back to the room and say that there are too many people here." Lin Xiu didn't move and didn't answer, Chen Yunjian stretched out his hand and pulled Lin Xiu away.Lin Xiu let her pull her away, "Rufeng, you come too, don't kneel."

"Okay." Rufeng also knew that she needed to explain things clearly, so she immediately got up and followed.

After arriving in the room, Chen Yunjian asked Rufeng to explain the ins and outs of the matter in detail, and Rufeng followed suit.After hearing this, Chen Yunjian had mixed feelings in his heart. He looked at Rufeng seriously and said, "I don't know, Rufeng, you have experienced so many unpleasant things. This matter... can't be completely blamed on you. After all, people are not grass and trees , I can only blame Wu Kai for being too despicable to use this incident to provoke you."

Lin Xiu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly murmured: "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have spared the lives of those two people for the so-called national interest. I should have let Rufeng kill them both. I stopped I told Rufeng not to let her kill people. I told her to kill her later for Zhou Guo’s benefit. Rufeng’s vengeance has not been avenged... How could she get out of this matter? Blame me for being too selfish and cold-blooded, if that Killed them all day. Rufeng’s vengeance will be avenged, so there won’t be such a big reaction. It’s my fault, everything is my fault..."

"National teacher, don't say that. You are also for the state of Zhou." Chen Yunjian persuaded Lin Xiu.

"National Teacher, I don't blame you. You have given me a lot of strength to regain my strength. It's me who has been wallowing in the past and never letting go." Rufeng didn't blame Lin Xiu in his heart, maybe he did at the time, But after going through so much, she no longer blames Lin Xiu for blocking her back then.

Lin Xiu didn't answer the words of the two of them, so she didn't know what she was thinking.The atmosphere in the room was heavy, and no one spoke for a while.

"Shu An said that she is waiting for me to rescue her." Lin Xiu murmured.

Rufeng said softly: "The princess said at the time...she was waiting for you to save her, but if Wu Kai used her as a hostage to threaten you to harm Zhou Guo's interests, then..."

"Then what?" Lin Xiu asked without emotion.

"Then leave her alone, the princess said... she will kill herself."

Hearing this, Chen Yunjian walked to the window irritably and sighed.Lin Xiu didn't speak, and her sanity began to gradually recover.No matter how sad and broken she is, she must calm down now, she is not qualified to be sad yet.Lin Xiu forced herself to calm down, thinking of all ways to save Xiao Shu'an.

However, it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, they are very passive now, Xiao Shu'an is in Wu Kai's hands.Lin Xiu was constrained, unable to implement any schemes.

"Shu An is fine for the time being." Lin Xiu said, comforting the two of them, and also comforting herself: "Wu Kai deliberately kidnapped Shu An, and even found out what happened to Zhao Duan at that time, and he knew more details than us. Explain that he It took a lot of effort, he won't hurt Shu An now. He must blackmail me with Shu An. "

"What does he want to hold?" Rufeng asked.

"The city, the land, and the surrender of the state of Zhou." Chen Yun said briefly.

"Then... shall we agree?" Rufeng asked.

Chen Yunjian didn't answer, but turned to look at Lin Xiu.Now that His Majesty is not here, Lin Xiu is the person with the highest authority, so it is up to Lin Xiu whether to agree or not.This is a very difficult choice. Wu Kai's appetite will not be small. Chen Yunjian guessed that Wu Kai wanted Shunshui City, the strongest city gate in Zhou Kingdom.So how should Lin Xiu choose?

Yu Guo, Lin Xiu is the national teacher, he should put the interests of the country first and the interests of the people first.In private, Lin Xiu is Xiao Shu'an's son-in-law and her husband. She should put the safety of her wife first.But if you can only choose one, how should you choose?

Chen Yunjian and Rufeng looked at Lin Xiu, Lin Xiu didn't answer, but asked: "General Chen, you send someone to find out how Wu Chu's fight is going. Also find out where Helian Ding is, and what else is there?" How long will it arrive, and when will Zhou Guo's reinforcements arrive?"

"Okay, I'll send someone to investigate." Chen Yunjian immediately went out to make arrangements.At this time, I am not afraid of doing things, but I am afraid of having nothing to do.As long as there is room for effort, that's fine.

Lin Xiu didn't know how much time had passed.She was in the room thinking about everyone and everything that could change the situation.She tried to sort everything out, wanted to see more clearly, wanted to find out if there was a gap she could manipulate.But it seems that there is nothing, but she doesn't give up, thinking over and over again, even though her mind is numb, she still doesn't want to give up, she is afraid that she didn't work hard enough, didn't work hard enough, and finally failed to rescue Xiao Shuan, she couldn't bear the consequences .

The food was served in front of Lin Xiu again, Lin Xiu still said: "I don't have an appetite, let's take it away."

The person who came did not leave, but touched the back of Lin Xiu's head and said, "Eat something, you will have the strength to think of a way to save the princess when you are full."

When Lin Xiu heard this, she looked up and saw Lin Zhong. Since Lin Zhong joined the army, Lin Xiu rarely saw him.In order to avoid suspicion, Lin Xiu didn't see Lin Zhong much this time, but when she saw Lin Zhong at this time, Lin Xiu burst into tears.As if grabbing a life-saving straw, Lin Xiu had never felt such a need, such a desire to rely on Lin Zhong, she grabbed Lin Zhong's hand and said:

"Ah Zhong, help me, help me save Shu An. You are very skilled in martial arts, you must have a way, right? I don't know what to do. I have nothing to do. I..." Lin Xiu broke down in tears, Lin Zhong, a big man, also had red eyes. He patted Lin Xiu's head lovingly and said, "It's okay, Xiu'er, I'm your elder brother, and I'm here. I will definitely help you rescue the princess, but you have to first Eat your meal, and then rest for a while, you have been suffering like this, your brain is frozen, and you can't think of any way."

"Yeah. I'll eat, I'll eat right away." Lin Xiu quickly picked up the rice, gobbled it up, and almost choked herself.Lin Zhong quickly handed Lin Xiu a glass of water, and patted Lin Xiu on the back with loving eyes.

Lin Zhong understands that now he is the only person Xiuer can trust and rely on.His appearance made Lin Xiu willing to be vulnerable for a short while. He understood that Lin Xiu didn't necessarily believe that he could save the princess, but he was her only hope now. Other than that, Lin Xiu had no hope. people and things.

Thinking that Lin Xiu has been a national teacher for so long, no matter what happened, big or small.Even if she knew about the Wu-Zhao Alliance, she never panicked, because she knew she was a military adviser, and when she panicked, the army panicked.But now, she's just a weak woman who can't do anything to save her own wife.Lin Zhong understands that although Xiu'er is weak, she is definitely not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.But... there is no one who is not afraid. What Lin Xiu fears most is losing the princess.
