Chapter 229 Returning Home

"Why are you so nervous?"

"You're still talking about me." Shen Yu said, "When you met my grandmother, weren't you so nervous that you were covered in sweat?"

Xie Tingzhou touched her forehead. She was not sweaty, but she was better than him.

"Does it still hurt?"

Shen Yu frowned and said, "You didn't ask if it hurt. I was so nervous that I forgot about it. But when you asked, I remembered it again."

Shen Yu's period was seven or eight days late, so she arrived two days before.

Her menstrual period has always been irregular, perhaps because of the busy schedule for months. This time it came so violently that her face turned pale in pain.

Except when she was sick, Xie Tingzhou had never seen her in such a depressed state. He went to see a doctor on the way, who only said that there was no cure for the disease and could only be taken care of slowly.

Xie Tingzhou arranged her hair again and said, "Go back and find a doctor to take a look."

Xie Guangzong was impatient to wait and kept coughing outside.

"Let's go, if we don't get down, my father will cough to death." Xie Tingzhou lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, turned around and took Shen Yu off the carriage.

Xie Guangzong's body, which had been leaning forward, instantly sat upright.

Xie Guangzong was actually nervous, but as an elder, if he wanted to leave a good impression when meeting for the first time, he had to keep his airs firmly on his shoulders.

"Shen Yu has met the prince." Shen Yu was wearing women's clothes today, so she was doing a woman's blessing ceremony.

Xie Guangzong cleared his throat and said, "No need to be polite. You have worked hard all the way."

He looked Shen Yu up and down, and the first word that came to his mind was: beautiful.

It is about 70-80% similar to the portrait, and more agile than the portrait. Especially these eyes, the portrait cannot depict such an agile grace.

It seems that Mrs. Lu is much more honest than him.

Xie Tingzhou took a step to the side, just blocking Xie Guangzong's sight.

Just when Xie Guangzong was about to curse, he remembered that the airs he had finally put up must not be destroyed in one day.

So he said: "It will take a few days to reach the Royal Capital, but once you enter the territory of Beilin, you don't have to rush. Just walk slowly. I will pick you up when you get to the Royal Capital."

Shen Yu was blessed again and was supported by Xie Tingzhou into the carriage.

Xie Guangzong originally had many questions to ask him, but after waiting around and seeing him not coming down, he called for Chang Liu to come over.

"Let me ask you, Changliu, is that your Crown Princess?"

"Yes." Changliu nodded, "The prince brought it back by himself, can this be wrong?"

Xie Guangzong touched his beard and said, "Didn't you say that she is a woman who can mount a horse and kill the enemy? I see how delicate she is, and she can fall down when the wind blows."

Changliu didn't understand that the Crown Princess looked a little strange today, so he said honestly: "She is not like this on weekdays. She can really mount a horse and kill the enemy."

Changliu thought that he could just praise the Crown Princess more, so he exaggerated a little, "When we met the bandits in Jiangzhou, the Crown Princess could cut people in half with one knife."

Chang Liu said and gestured, "That's it, Kua Cha - just two halves."

Xie Guangzong shuddered, thinking that ordinary people couldn't bear such a daughter-in-law. She looked soft and weak, and would always praise and attack others.

Only someone like Xie Tingzhou, who has a withdrawn personality and doesn't follow the usual path, doesn't believe in this evil.

He said "Oh" and asked again: "You guys are later than I expected. What's going on? There's trouble on the road."

"No, that's because the Crown Princess fell ill on the road."

"What disease?"

Changliu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't know, it's just that my stomach has been hurting for several days."

Xie Guangzong nodded and roughly guessed it.

His backyard was full of concubines and concubines. Twenty-eight of the thirty days in January, the concubines would call him to their house with the excuse of having a stomachache.

"Then you stopped?"

Changliu said: "The prince wanted to stay in the county for a few days and wait for the prince to recover before setting out on the road. The prince did not agree, so we slowed down."

"This kid." Xie Guangzong spat, "He doesn't even care about danger when he has a wife."

Changliu defended Xie Tingzhou, "The prince does not do anything that is uncertain."

It is safe once you enter Beilin territory, and no one dares to act rashly.

At night the army was stationed, and they rested at the post.

After Xie Tingzhou settled down with Shen Yu, he went to Xie Guangzong's room.

"father."

Xie Guangzong put down his crossed legs and said, "Here we come."

"How many days have you been waiting for us?"

"Who is willing to wait for you?" Xie Guangzong looked towards the roof, "If you don't come in two days, I will take you away."

Xie Tingzhou said "hmm" and said without saltiness: "Next time you lie, it's best to let the Wan Qingyun Guards have a unified tone. Although it is not easy to implement when there are more people, it is not as embarrassing as being exposed in person. "

"Hey." Xie Guangzong slapped his leg, "You know it's embarrassing to expose me, but you still insist on exposing me."

Xie Tingzhou finally smiled, sat down opposite Xie Guangzong, turned over the tea bowl and poured a cup of tea for Xie Guangzong.

Xie Guangzong waved his hand, "I won't drink anymore. I'm getting too old and can't sleep after drinking tea at night."

Xie Tingzhou seemed to have never felt the word old from Xie Guangzong.

Now if we look closely, we can see that Xie Guangzong has some white hair on his temples.

Xie Tingzhou said: "Father, it's been a hard journey coming from the royal capital."

Xie Guangzong leaned forward suddenly, startling Xie Tingzhou, and leaned back, avoiding Xie Guangzong's hand that reached out to touch his forehead.

"What are you hiding from?" Xie Guangzong said, "I'm just going to feel if you are burned out. This is not something my son can say."

The two father and son were together for only half a moment.

Xie Guangzong remembered the past.

He had many children and had been a father many times before Xie Tingzhou came. Therefore, Xie Tingzhou's arrival was not much of a surprise to him, but just an accident.

He had been fighting outside for many years and neglected to discipline his children. His children were raised by their mother and teacher.

Xie Tingzhou was an unexpected child, unexpectedly hardworking, and unexpectedly knew what he wanted.

In fact, his physique was more like his mother, not as strong and sturdy as Xie Guangzong, so he never thought that he could ride a horse to fight.

He was the son who looked least like Xie Guangzong and most like Xie Guangzong.

Xie Guangzong looked at Xie Tingzhou in front of him. When he brought him back from the village, he was still a skinny baby, but now he can carry the whole Beilin.

"Didn't you encounter any trouble on the way?"

Xie Tingzhou said: "We encountered a gathering of bandits in Jiangzhou. The Qingyun Guard suffered heavy losses. Didn't they send pigeons back to the capital?"

Xie Guangzong said: "Of course I know. I asked the back."

Xie Tingzhou took a sip of tea and said: "With your army approaching, how dare the garrison in Pingzhou move? The journey was smooth."

Xie Guangzong snorted twice, "You know your father's good, right?"

"You seem very anxious." Xie Tingzhou said.

Xie Guangzong touched his chin unnaturally, "Well, I have sent an urgent letter to Shengjing, reporting the news that you will succeed the King of Beilin."

Xie Tingzhou paused. He had expected this result long ago, so it was not too unexpected.

Xie Guangzong said: "By the way, I will also pass on the news that you will marry your principal wife, but you have to clean up the mess yourself."

Marrying Shen Yu, who the court wanted to attack, as the Queen of Beilin was a formal declaration of war against Shengjing.

I'm afraid many people will be completely restless.
