Over the past few days, the shopkeeper has become familiar with these two guests.
Mainly because the two of them were very generous with their actions.
The shopkeeper actually made some money.
This is a difficult thing during times of war.
"Where are they now?" In the inn, the woman in front of the shopkeeper suddenly stood up and asked the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was a little confused.
He just told me some news, why was this female guest so excited?
"Of course Wei Gong and the others went to the Cangzhou Yamen Office. As for the soldiers, they should all be staying at the school grounds in the north."
"Do the guests know them?" the shopkeeper explained and asked with a smile.
"I don't know, my wife likes to yell and yell." The male guest and the shopkeeper nodded slightly.
The shopkeeper nodded and left.
"Zhao Chen, I want to see my father and mother." The woman said to the male guest in front of her.
These two people were Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang who had disappeared for a long time.
Zhao Chen looked at Li Ruoshuang. He knew that he and Li Ruoshuang had disappeared for so long and everyone was worried.
But Zhao Chen is worried that if the news that he is still alive is known to Li Tai, what means will Li Tai use to deal with him next time?
Forget about dealing with himself, Zhao Chen is not afraid.
But what Zhao Chen is thinking about is that his daughter is still in Chang'an. If Li Tai threatens him with his daughter...
"Go ahead, but don't let others know." Zhao Chen nodded.
Li Ruoshuang wanted to go see her parents, and he had no reason to stop her from going.
Li Ruoshuang's face showed joy.
She knew what Zhao Chen was worried about.
Otherwise, they would not have been so low-key these days, and even Cheng Yaojin and the others did not say hello when they met face to face.
Chang'an is now under Li Tai's control. They still have daughters and friends in Chang'an. If the news that Zhao Chen is alive reaches Li Tai's ears.
God knows what will happen!
"Then I'm going, don't worry, no one will know." Li Ruoshuang held Zhao Chen's hand and comforted her.
…
Li Jing and Hongfu Nu stayed at the Cangzhou Yamen Office.
Many officials in Cangzhou simply put up their seals and disappeared. They were also afraid that the Goguryeo army would attack Cangzhou.
If that were the case, they would all have died under the sword of Goguryeo soldiers.
Many Cangzhou officials no longer have much confidence in their own army.
After all, since the war broke out, it seems that the Tang Dynasty has not won a single victory.
What's more, the emperor is now seriously injured.
"Madam, have the soldiers settled down?" Li Jing asked when he saw Hongfu Nu coming in.
"Everyone has settled in. They are very well-behaved. They started training as soon as they settled in, and no one left the camp!" Hong Fu Girl said.
Li Jing sighed slightly when he heard this.
The changes that the Xuanjia Army has today are actually mostly due to Zhao Chen.
If it weren't for him, even if the Xuanjia Army was the most elite cavalry in the Tang Dynasty, they would not be as disciplined as they are now.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival military parade, they were all shocked by the power of the Xuanjia Army.
But where has Zhao Chen gone now?
"Are you thinking about Zhao Chen again?" Hongfunu brought a cup of hot tea.
Cangzhou is already in the north, and it is already September. The wind is blowing on the body, which is inevitably biting.
"Hey, that guy has a lot of clever ideas. I already knew it when we were in Chang'an."
"I also thought about accepting him as a closed disciple. If he had agreed at the beginning and joined the army earlier, maybe this wouldn't have happened."
"I don't know what happened to him and where he is now!" Li Jing put down the tea cup and said a few words.
In front of him was the topographic map of Cangzhou City.
The emperor has led the army back to outside Cangzhou, and the Goguryeo army is following behind. The battle in Cangzhou is inevitable.
It is also time to prepare in advance.
Hongfu Nu didn't speak, she didn't know what to say.
Regarding Zhao Chen, they are still just guessing.
Zhao Chen's life and death are unknown, so it's useless to say anything.
"Dang-dang-dang-" A knock on the door sounded outside, interrupting Li Jing's train of thought.
"Who is it?" Hongfu Girl saw this and asked.
No one said anything outside.
Hong Fu Nu frowned, but didn't take it to heart.
"I believe they will be fine..."
"Dang-dang-dang-" Hongfu Nu turned her head to talk to Li Jing. Before she could finish her words, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.
"Who!" Hong Fu Nu looked annoyed, walked to the door of the room in a few steps, and opened the door suddenly.
"Why do you keep knocking on the door? You..."
"Mother!" The person standing at the door suddenly raised his head and called out to the red cat girl.
When Hong Fu Nu heard the voice, her whole body trembled slightly, and she swallowed back all the words she was about to scold.
"Old man, come here quickly." Hongfunu and Li Jing, who were looking at the topographic map of Cangzhou in the room, shouted.
Li Jing frowned, put down the candlestick in his hand and walked to the door.
"Father!" Li Ruoshuang shouted.
Li Jingren was stunned in the distance.
"Girl, it's really... it's you!" Li Jing's voice contained a hint of disbelief.
Although he has always believed that his daughter and Zhao Chen are still alive, he just believes it.
Without seeing anyone, his heart would never fall to the ground.
but now……
Li Jing felt his nose was a little sore.
He only has a daughter like Li Ruoshuang. If something happens to her, what hope does he have in the future?
Fortunately, my daughter is standing in front of me at this moment.
"Quick...come in!" Li Jing quickly stepped aside and let Li Ruoshuang walk into the room.
At this moment, Li Ruoshuang was wearing a black robe, which was why he didn't see any shadow on the door just now.
Hong Funu wiped her eyes and took Li Ruoshuang's arm to walk into the room.
"It's time to finish eating. If you don't have any, mother will make some for you. You have lost a lot of weight these days." As soon as she sat down, Hongfu Nu made preparations for Li Ruoshuang.
Li Ruoshuang grabbed Hong Funu and shook her head.
"Mother, my daughter came here after dinner to talk to you and her father. She will go back later." Li Ruoshuang grabbed Hong Funu.
Li Jing also shook his head with Hong Fu Nu.
"Where have you and Zhao Chen been these days, and how is he doing now?"
"Your father and I both heard that Zhao Chen was poisoned by Duangchangsan, and we were all worried to death." Hong Funu and Li Ruoshuang were talking, tears streaming down their faces.
Seeing Hongfu Nu crying, Li Ruoshuang couldn't help but shed tears.
Thinking about the situation at that time, she was also panicking at the moment.
"Zhao Chen is fine. He was indeed poisoned by Duangchang Powder, but he knows medical skills, so he is fine."
"Later, he was worried that if the news that he was not dead would be revealed to Li Tai, Li Tai would deal with him behind his back, so he never showed up."
"He is also in Cangzhou now, and he agreed to my coming to see you two today." Li Ruoshuang explained to the two of them.
Hongfunu and Li Jing were relieved when they heard that Zhao Chen was okay.
But when he thought about Zhao Chen saying that Li Tai was behind the plot, Li Jing's expression immediately darkened.
What Zhao Chen said personally has completely different meanings from the rumors outside.
"We still have to listen to Zhao Chen's arrangements and don't spread the news that he is still alive. Otherwise, those of us in Chang'an will suffer."
"Especially the little ones at home." Li Jing said with an extremely cautious look on his face.?
