When Leng Zixie woke up again, she was in a room. She had completely changed her outfit. She was wearing a blue shirt instead of the purple she had worn all year round. She looked very different.

She touched the fabric on her body and saw that all the wounds on her body had been bandaged with medicine.

She slowly sat up and rubbed her still painful forehead. Suddenly, everything that happened before she fainted came to mind.

It was Xie Fengmian, he led people to rescue her.

Thinking of this, Leng Zixie quickly looked around. Sure enough, the layout of the house seemed to belong to men.

With a creak, the door opened.

She looked up and saw Xie Fengmian walking in with medicine.

"You're awake, how do you feel?"

Xie Fengmian still looked the same as before, but now, Leng Zixie looked at him, but her eyes couldn't help but feel red, sour and astringent.

"What's wrong? Does it hurt somewhere?" Xie Fengmian saw that her face looked bad and walked up with medicine.

Leng Zixie recalled everything she had done in southern Xinjiang, and felt like her heart was twisting in a knife.

"I'm fine. Thank you for helping me."

Leng Zixie would say thank you to him, and a flash of surprise flashed in Xie Fengmian's usually calm eyes.

"You don't have to look at me like that. After I was taken back that day, King Gu learned that I had a child, and he got angry and had a showdown with me."

Hearing this, Xie Fengmian's eyes looked unclear, "Oh, what did he say to you?"

"He has talked about the absurdity of the Holy Land, he has also talked about my mother's sorrow, and he has talked about the tragedies of every saint. Now I am glad that you gave my mother such happiness."

Hearing her words and looking at her miserable eyes, Xie Fengmian's heart was filled with twists and turns. He didn't ask any more questions and handed over the medicine bowl.

"Drink the medicine first, your body is too damaged."

Leng Ziqi took the medicine and drank it in one gulp.

Bitter, really bitter.

She wrinkled her face, and the residue from her mouth couldn't help but fall on her clothes. She wiped it with a handkerchief, but there was still an ink spot left.

"Dirty."

"It doesn't matter. I'll just change my clothes." After Xie Fengmian finished speaking, he saw that Leng Zixie had been looking at the residue on her clothes intently.

"I know you like to wear purple. I will order someone to buy it soon."

Seeing that he had misunderstood, Leng Zixie came back to her senses, and a smile appeared on her pale lips, "No need, the plain color is fine."

Hearing this, Xie Fengmian couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, but her eyes couldn't tell what it meant.

After a while, the room became really quiet. Just as Xie Fengmian was about to leave, Leng Zijie spoke.

"Where's A-Xian?"

Seeing him looking over, Leng Zixie explained, "It's the child. When he was born, I named him Leng Xian."

"Then why does everyone call him Anu?"

Hearing the faint voice, Leng Zixie was dumbfounded for a moment, then she lowered her head and remained silent.

What is there not to understand about this?

Xie Fengmian turned around and left, "It's in the yard behind you. If you want to see him, go and see him."

"What? General Gu wants to attack Ruoqiang?"

The imperial study room was full of ministers, and everyone listened to His Majesty's words in shock.

His Majesty put the memorial away and nodded, "What do you think, dear sirs?"

"Your Majesty, you must not do it. Now the western part of the border is in chaos, and the affairs in southern Xinjiang have not been settled yet. If we want to attack Ruoqiang and face foreign aggression, our Great Zhou Dynasty will definitely survive under the verbal and written criticism of the literati.

"Hu Bo blocked the exit.

"What Mr. Hu said is absolutely true. In the Southwest War, we suffered heavy losses in the Great Zhou Dynasty. In the past few years, we have recuperated and recovered a little. We cannot withstand too much turmoil."

"Yeah yeah---"

All civil servants agreed with what he said.

If Qiang is the territory of Northern Xinjiang, it is a piece of cake in the Western Region, and it is the closest to Hehuang Pass. Once the two sides start a war, the western border pass will definitely be caught in the flames of war.

"Your Majesty, I believe that what General Gu said is absolutely true. I am high above the temple and do not understand the border situation as well as General Gu. If the Western Regions and the Desert join forces, and the small countries in the middle add fuel to the flames, our nineteen-state border will be in danger."

At this time, Xu Mu stood up and expressed different opinions.

"We, the Zhou Dynasty, were also conquered on horseback. General Gu spent his whole life fighting at the border. If we can successfully capture Ruoqiang and set up border defenses in Ruoqiang, we can also prevent neighboring small countries from invading our western border and disturbing our people."

"Besides, it was the Gu King of Southern Xinjiang who broke his promise and was unable to fulfill the marriage agreement. It is understandable that he sent troops to attack Ruoqiang at this time."

As soon as Xu Mu's words came out, many generals thought it was reasonable.

The two parties immediately formed a separatist regime, and a quarrel broke out in the royal study, which made His Majesty dizzy.

"Okay, the noise gave me a headache."

His Majesty's face darkened, and the fighting in the imperial study finally stopped for a moment.

"Xu Aiqing, what did your grandfather say?"

Xu Mu bowed his fist and said, "I heard that my grandfather sighed secretly at night. The border passes have been repeatedly invaded. My grandfather has long been worried and wishes he could go to the battlefield to fight off Xiao Xiao."

"Humph, the old general is already old, but he still knows about the border war?" The civil servants headed by Hu Bo did not want to fight. After all, once the war started, they would be busy.

"Your Majesty, I also heard that Gu Fengtuo led his troops to the Holy Land of Southern Xinjiang and fought a battle at Hehuang Pass, resulting in heavy casualties. How can he be worthy of such a high-level position if he abuses his private power like this?"

"Yes, yes, there have been rumors that there was a battle at Hehuang Pass."

"I heard that it was because of General Gu's wife that they brought the Nineteenth Cavalry of Yanyun to the Holy Land of Southern Xinjiang to save her. They fought for several days. I don't know what the casualties were."

"Gu Fengtuo has always loved to use force to suppress people, especially the people of Yanyun Nineteenth Cavalry. They respect him. I see, this place is about to become his world-"

When His Majesty heard these words with a gun and a stick, there was no visible change in his expression.

Xu Mu quietly looked at it for a few times, and seeing that there was nothing unusual about His Majesty, he spoke loudly, "Master Hu, please don't talk nonsense. In the central and northwest of the border, there are Tatar invasions almost every day, and small battles continue. What's so strange about this?"

"Master Hu, I think it's time to withdraw those eyeliners of yours."

Hu Bo's face darkened, and his beard almost jumped with anger, "You---"

"Sir Xu, once a war breaks out, the people at the border will be injured. General Gu has been on the battlefield for a long time and has no sympathy. Don't you have any sympathy either?"

Xu Mu snorted coldly and said with a black face, "I think you are just used to enjoying the good things and don't want to contribute. After all, after the war begins, the Ministry of War will be busy."

With that said, Xu Mu spoke to His Majesty who was sitting on the dragon throne above, "Your Majesty, I believe that it is worth it for the Tatars who fought in the temporary war to withdraw from our surrounding areas in exchange for a hundred years of peace."

"Furthermore, since the First World War in the Southwest, our border gates have only been defensive but not offensive. In exchange, we have been repeatedly tested by southern Xinjiang, and wars are raging in the desert. If this continues, the border gates will never have peace."

"I second the proposal."

"I second the proposal."
