"Xiaoyue."

Xue Chengyi, who has always been selfless, was a little moved when he saw Chen Yue. This was the first relative he saw after being imprisoned.

Xue Chengyi patted Chenyue on the shoulder and said softly:

"Go and pay homage to your Uncle Ma first."

"Um."

Chen Yue walked to the coffin with red eyes, knelt on the ground respectfully, kowtowed three times, and murmured:

"Dad, my son has taken you home.

Don’t worry, both Ling’er and the child are fine~”

Prince Liang, who fought on the battlefield and killed countless people, was very sad at the moment.

Two years, exactly two years, he finally took back Uncle Ma's body.

He still remembered the scene where Ma Congzhi held up the door of his house that night. If Ma Congzhi hadn't forgotten his own life, Chen Yue would have died in the bloody storm that night.

People cannot be resurrected after death, so all Chenyue can do is take the old man's body home for burial.

Chenyue talked softly about every detail of the past two years, how Ling'er was doing, how the children were doing, and how the family was doing.

Although Chenyue has not been back home for two years, he has always exchanged letters.

Chenyue kept chattering, as if he wanted to pour out all the words in his chest.

Ma Congzhi seems to be his father-in-law, but he has actually grown up watching Chen Yue and has an extremely deep relationship with him.

The white horses around them all bowed their heads silently, and the tips of the noses of the strong men felt sore.

They rarely see such a tender side of Chen Yue. The wars in various places are like a heavy burden on Chen Yue's shoulders. Who can understand the pressure in the heart of King Liang?

Xue Chengyi was also silently looking at Chen Yue's kneeling back. He chose Chen Yue to be the son-in-law of their Xue family. He had never regretted it.

Chenyue knelt on the ground for a long time before getting up. He waved gently, and Xu Luo led people to carry away the coffin very wisely.

The coffin will be transported back to Beiliang around the clock and sent back to Liangzhou for burial.

After watching Chen Yue finish all this, Xue Chengyi said:

"Xiaoyue, come with me for a walk?"

Chen Yue wiped the corners of his tearful eyes and nodded heavily:

"Anthracene!"

…

The winter wind was light and chilly to the bone.

Chenyue and Xue Chengyi walked slowly on the slope. The trees on both sides of the road had long become bare, without even a single branch or leaf.

The two walked side by side for a long time, without speaking in a tacit understanding.

Xue Chengyi breathed heavily, as if he was feeling the taste of freedom. He had not walked so freely for a long time, let alone seen such a vast sky.

But every step Xue Chengyi took was very heavy.

Chenyue knew that Xue Chengyi had suffered a lot in the past two years, so he kept following him, for fear that he might fall or something.

Xue Chengyi also knew that fighting in Chenyue was not easy, and he might have been on the verge of death several times.

"well."

After a long time, Xue Chengyi sighed and said:

"Xiaoyue, I know you are filial and I know you love your father-in-law.

But how can a man be limited to one family? You should focus on the world!

The army is now at its peak, how can it stop because I killed someone? Xiaoyue, you did something wrong this time~

well."

This Master Xue has a really upright temperament. After being away for a long time, he was not happy to meet again.

When the two met, Xue Chengyi did not ask about the current situation of his father, Xue Leihan, and Xue Qianqian. Instead, he directly talked about the war.

After being imprisoned for two years, his vigorous and resolute character has not changed at all.

Chenyue seemed to have known for a long time that Xue Chengyi would ask this question. He glanced at the capital in the distance and murmured:

"All the hundreds of thousands of southern expedition troops have retreated, and only one Daliang Dragon Cavalry remains in Tongzhou City.

Uncle Xue, we have retreated.

The reason why you came back is not because I, Chenyue, only care about my own selfishness, but because of the situation."

Xue Chengyi was stunned, his face was full of shock, and he couldn't think straight.

Didn't we just win a battle? The army was only one step away from the capital, so how could it suddenly withdraw?

A bad premonition suddenly appeared in his heart, something must have happened in Liangdi!

Chen Yue, who looked a little haggard, murmured:

"The Yan army marched south in large numbers, and Shuofeng City was captured.

Zhu Tianhe, who defended the city, died in battle, and the entire army was able to repel the Yan army at the cost of almost annihilation.

We really can't fight here in Gyeonggi Province.

At this time, the Yuwen family proposed to exchange the father-in-law, and I naturally agreed."

"This, there is such a thing!"

Xue Chengyi was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He didn't expect that such a big change had happened in Liangdi. No wonder Chenyue wanted to withdraw his troops.

Zhu Tian still knew him well. He was an old man in the Liang Army. He had made great contributions to the establishment of the Liang Army through many years of fighting in the south and north, and now he died at the border like this?

Almost all the defenders in the city were wiped out. Ever since Xue Chengyi met Chenyue, the Liang army seemed to have never suffered such a big setback.

Xue Chengyi couldn't help but his eyes turned red: "They are all good men~"

Xue Chengyi couldn't help crying when he thought of the vast corpses at the border.

Chen Yue said with a bitter look on his lips:

"Thankfully, the Yuwen family proposed the exchange, otherwise we would have had to withdraw our troops in vain.

Now that the border war situation is getting more and more intense, our army needs to rush back to aid Liangdi. If what happened in Shuofeng City happens again, hundreds of thousands of Yan troops will march straight in without any hindrance.

At that time, the country will be lost."

Xue Chengyi now understood the critical nature of the situation, and there was no other way to retreat back to Liang.

Although he had been imprisoned for two years and did not know much about the wars in various places, he still understood the difficulty of the Liang army fighting on both sides.

The Liang army was no more than a two-pronged army. Even though they had hundreds of thousands of soldiers in armor, who among the Yan Rong troops in the Long Dynasty was easy to offend?

All in all, the base of the base is still too thin.

Thinking of this, Xue Chengyi suddenly reacted and said worriedly:

"If news of Shuofeng City's defeat reaches the Central Plains, Yuwen Xingchen will definitely realize that you have to withdraw.

If they send troops to take advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, won't they be causing a big mess?"

Although Xue Chengyi didn't know much about military tactics, he also knew that the retreat of hundreds of thousands of troops was by no means an easy task.

Once the Yuwen family made a desperate move and sent troops to chase them, they might really be defeated.

"Don't worry, I have already made arrangements."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Chenyue's lips: "By the time the Yuwen family reacts, our troops will have been completely withdrawn~"

Xue Chengyi felt relieved now. He had never doubted Chen Yue's ability to lead troops in war.

Chenyue rubbed his cheeks, cheered up, and said in a deep voice:

"Uncle, don't worry about the troop withdrawal. I would like to ask you to leave for Liangzhou immediately. I have prepared the entourage."

Xue Chengyi was stunned:

"Are you in such a hurry?"

A trace of solemnity flashed across Chenyue's face:

"Mr. Xue has been seriously ill for many days. I'm afraid..."

Xue Chengyi's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around and left:
