Chapter 461
Chapter 461
The convoy entered a valley, and the sound of fighting suddenly came from outside the box.
"It's better to take action."
Shen Ruzhou's eyes were bright, looking out through the gap in the box. Mo Ru raised his sword and dropped it, and a Northern Liao soldier fell. "Beautiful, I didn't expect Mo Ru's martial arts to be quite high."
Beixiu Yan followed: "Mo Ru is the most valued minister of the King of Southern Xinjiang, so naturally he is not an ordinary person."
While he was talking, Mo Ru had already dealt with Beiliao's people. He strode to the box, cut off the copper lock on it with a knife, and invited Shen Ruzhou and Beixiu out to a banquet.
It was already evening, and everyone did not dare to delay, so they hurried to the Northern City.
The governor had already been waiting at the city gate. When he saw Beixiu Yan, he immediately ran over and said, "Prince Regent, you are back. I am waiting for your decision on city defense matters."
"Let all the generals come to the Governor's Mansion to discuss matters." Beixiu Yan gave the order with a stern look on his face.
As soon as he came back, the governor had a backbone, and his frown relaxed a little, "I'm going to greet people now."
Seeing the governor running away with his official robe in hand, Mo Ru couldn't help but sigh.
"I heard earlier that the governor of the Northern Territory ignored business and only drank and had fun every day. It seems that the rumors are untrue."
Hearing this, Shen Ruzhou couldn't help laughing and said: "The governor is not diligent, it's just that the Northern Liao soldiers came to the city, forcing him to brace up and deal with it."
"He's full of energy. After patrolling the city defenses during the day, he didn't forget to send women to King Wu Cheng at night. He was so busy that his feet didn't even touch the ground." Fang Cheng didn't know when he came and said with a smile.
When Shen Ruzhou saw him, he hurriedly asked about his brother's condition. Fang Cheng said, "The young master has woken up and his injuries are gradually improving. Miss, don't worry."
"That's good." Shen Ruzhou covered his chest with his hands and breathed a long sigh of relief.
She jumped off the carriage and said to Bei Xiuyan: "Your Majesty, I'll go see my brother first, and then I'll change your dressing in the evening."
"Go ahead, I will be waiting for you at the Governor's Mansion." Bei Xiuyan nodded in agreement, and the coachman took the carriage and went straight to the Governor's Mansion.
Shen Ruzhou followed Fang Cheng around a corner and saw the largest inn in the north. Many injured generals in the army were placed here to recuperate.
Shen Ruzhou stepped into the restaurant hall and unexpectedly saw Xiao Chenyan holding a wine jar and drinking. Next to him, two women in gorgeous clothes were diligently picking up vegetables and handing out fruits, chatting and laughing with them.
Shen Ruzhou couldn't help but snorted and went straight to the backyard.
Xiao Chenyan had been hungover for a day. Although his eyes were blurry and lifeless, he still recognized Shen Ruzhou at a glance. He raised his hand and knocked his head violently to make sure that he was not hallucinating.
"Jun Wu, was it Shen Ruzhou who just passed by?" Xiao Chenyan turned around and asked, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Yes, it's Miss Shen." Jun Wu replied affirmatively, "Your Majesty, Miss Shen is fine and is back fine."
Xiao Chenyan was surprised and happy, and murmured to himself: "She's back, she's back..."
After saying that, he got up and went to find Shen Ruzhou, but his drunken body was completely unresponsive, and he collapsed on the ground after taking only two steps. Jun Wu hurriedly stepped forward to help him, "My lord, don't worry, I will go right away." Prepare the hangover soup."
"Hurry, go quickly." Xiao Chenyan urged impatiently, his eyes always looking at the direction Shen Ruzhou left, looking for that slender figure.
Shen Ruzhou is not dead, she is back well. Xiao Chenyan's eyes flashed with brilliance, and the corners of his lips were full of smiles. He looked completely different from the decadent and lost look just now.
Shen Ruzhou hurried to the backyard, opened the door, and saw his father and brother there. He shouted happily: "Dad, brother, I'm back."
"That's great. You brothers and sisters are all safe and sound. God bless you." Shen Mu shed tears of excitement when he saw that his daughter, whom he had missed for many days, came back safely.
Shen Ruzhou hurriedly stepped forward and pulled his father to sit down, saying comforting words, "Dad, my daughter is fine, not even a hair is missing. Don't worry."
Shen Chumu was too injured to get out of bed, but he still restlessly reached out and patted Shen Ruzhou on the shoulder, and said carelessly: "As expected of my Shen Chumu's sister, well done."
Shen Ruzhou didn't expect Shen Chumu to be so energetic even after being injured. He clutched his shoulders in pain and acted coquettishly with his father, "Dad, look at my brother. He's been so harsh. It seems he's going to recover soon."
"Isn't it too much for you to accuse me in front of dad right after you came back?" Shen Chumu said and laughed, looking much better.
Shen Mu looked at the bickering pair of children with eyes full of love.
"Thanks to the regent's rescue this time, you can come back safely. As a father, I must go and thank you personally."
Shen Mu stood up as he spoke, and Shen Ruzhou said from the side: "If father wants to express his gratitude in person, he will have to go later. The regent is currently dealing with official duties and has no time to attend."
"Then let's go there tonight." Shen Mu took Shen Ruzhou's hand and asked her how she escaped from danger.
Shen Ruzhou told the whole story roughly, and before he knew it, it became dark.
Shen Mu calculated that the time was almost up and took Shen Ruzhou towards the Governor's Mansion.
