Chapter 1997: Reunion with an Old Friend (Jing Kong Side Story)
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Last night, after taking the purification, my back was already sore. Today I took the kids to offer incense all day, and Gu Jiao felt for her husband. She consciously put two boxes of Xiao Taotao back in the drawer.Unexpectedly, her husband somehow came with determination, walked over, opened the first aid kit, and took out the Xiao Taotao she put back.
One box, two boxes, three boxes.
That’s right, he boldly added another box!
Gu Jiao: “…”
Do you have some misunderstanding about your own stamina?
The couple spent an indescribable enchanting night, the movements didn’t stop until dawn.
And the couple who were supposed to visit the Duke Residence on the second day of the Lunar New Year couldn’t get up this time.
…
The three little kids are considerate children, rarely bothering their parents, and usually bother Uncle Shangguan Qing. Now that Xuanyuan Xi is back, the three have turned to bother him.
Xuanyuan Xi once again experienced the despair of being dominated by little kids, dragged out of the bed at dawn by the steamed bun troop led by Xiao Yang.
Children really have abundant energy.
Today, the three wanted to ride horses.
Mainly because Xiao Yang wanted to ride, and she cast votes for all three, Xiao Cong’s objection was invalid.
Xuanyuan Xi took the three little tails to find Little Shiyi.
Little Shiyi wasn’t in the stable at the moment, it went to tease Hei Fengwang, but ended up being chased all the way by Hei Fengwang, falling onto the frozen lake directly doing a split!
Hei Fengwang is the same age as Gu Jiao, twenty-four this year, which is already old age for a warhorse.
Ordinary warhorses start aging at sixteen, their backs sagging and muscles shrinking into weakness, yet these signs seem not to appear in Hei Fengwang.
It remains strong and robust.
Little Shiyi was beaten severely.
After spending a year outside thinking its wings were hardened, coming back it realized it was naïve.
Little Shiyi felt aggrieved.
However, if closely distinguishing, differences could still be noticed.
In the past, Hei Fengwang chased and beaten it without a hitch, now after beating it still gasped at the spot for a long time.
Little Shiyi stood up with its messed up mane, approached Hei Fengwang, and rubbed its head against it.
As if asking, hey, are you alright?
Hei Fengwang proudly walked away.
Its back, after all, was not as erect as when it was young.
In the past seven years, countless warhorses from various countries challenged its authority, it was never afraid of challenges, defending the honor of Hei Fengqi with absolute strength, creating its own legend.
It walked in the cold and fierce snowfield, though panting heavily, still elegant in its steps, composed in its posture, carrying an innate aura of massacre and kingly majesty.
Little Shiyi silently followed behind, mischievously stepping on its footprints.
Hei Fengwang looked back.
Little Shiyi stared blankly at it, grinning widely, smiling!
Hei Fengwang silently withdrew its gaze, continued to proudly march forward.
…
In the first month of the year, the Imperial Palace was immersed in a joyful Spring Festival atmosphere, but suddenly one day, a message from Zhan Country’s border broke this atmosphere.
The western territory of Zhan Country was breached, over a dozen cities fell!
“Did Liang Country do it?” Gu Jiao asked the messenger guard.
Zhan Country’s western territory actually borders Yan Country, yet Yan Country didn’t do such a thing, nor would it, leaving only Liang Country.
Liang Country is located in the southwest of Zhan Country, relatively farther than Yan Country, separated by a long waterway.
The guard hurriedly said, “Wrong, wrong, it’s not the western territory, it’s the eastern territory!”
“Cheng Country?” The battle to defend Yuegu City eight years ago was still fresh in Gu Jiao’s memory. “How could Cheng Country fight with Zhan Country?”
Has Yuan Tang gone mad?
Two years ago, the emperor of Cheng Country passed away, Yuan Tang succeeded to the throne.
He had offended Prince Bo, and had a fallout with the mother clan of Consort Rong, the Rong Family. His situation in Cheng Country wasn’t as peaceful as it seemed, where did he get the resources to meticulously attack Zhan Country?
Moreover, Yuan Tang had no reason to do so.
The guard braced himself and said, “Seems like… it’s not Cheng Country’s army, it’s Wei Country’s!”
Gu Jiao felt two questions arise from the depths of her heart: Why is Wei Country attacking Zhan Country? How did Wei Country’s army smoothly enter Cheng Country?
The guard further said, “Additionally, there’s another thing. The name of that Liu minister, the Shadow Division has found out, it’s Liu Yisheng.”
Despite having guessed earlier, truly reaching the moment of confirmation, Gu Jiao still felt absolutely shaken in her heart.
Zhan Country probably never imagined in their dreams that the Liu family orphan, bullied by everyone in Zhaodu like a mouse everyone wanted to beat, would come back eight years later, leading Wei Country’s forces to break through Zhan Country’s border, capturing twelve cities in one go!
