Killer Pretty Queen

Chapter 97

A reception banquet, only to eat everyone thrilling.Unexpectedly, in the end, under the strong support of the emperor and the general, nothing happened.For a while, many people's hearts inevitably felt a little secretly disappointed.

After the banquet was over, Xiao Li followed the general and returned to the general's mansion.

Ever since she got the news that the army was returning to the city, Mrs. Xiao had been looking forward to Xiao Li's return home as soon as possible.It's hard to look forward to this day, but it's a pity that Xiao Li has to go to the palace to return to life, and can't go home directly.And this trip made Mrs. Xiao wait for a whole day, and it was already dusk when she saw her daughter return.

The winter in Lingjiang City is not very cold compared to the border towns and deserts, but it is also very cold and windy, which makes people's faces hurt.But at this time, Mrs. Xiao, who was standing under the gate of the General's Mansion, was only wearing a large fur cape.

Xiao Li was riding on a white horse, and from a distance, she could see the figure of her mother standing under the gate, looking forward to it.At that moment, looking at Mrs. Xiao's expectant expression, Xiao Li's eyes could not help but suddenly filled with tears.

With a sudden effort under his feet, the white horse raised its four hooves, and galloped towards the gate of the general's mansion like the wind. When it came close, Xiao Li quickly rolled off the saddle, and went straight to his wife's arms like a swallow returning to its nest: "Mother... Li'er is back!"

At this time, Mrs. Xiao even stretched out her arms and hugged Xiao Li into her arms.With a smile on his face, tears in his smile, he gently supported her back with full of love, and said lovingly: "Mother's Ali is finally back! My child, do you know how much my mother has in her heart these days?" I miss you! But... now that you are finally back, it’s good to be back! It’s good to be back!”

At this moment, the general and Qin Jian also rushed over.

Qin Jian stepped forward to salute and said: "Qin Jian has seen Madam!"

But Mrs. Xiao helped her up: "Silly boy, you are all from my own family, why are you being so polite." Afterwards, she also stretched out her arms, and took her and Xiao Li into her arms.

At this time, the general has also come to the front.Seeing such a situation, I couldn't help but sigh.

However, soon, he smiled at his wife: "Ma'am, Ah Li just returned to Beijing today. I am afraid that he has suffered a lot along the way, and since he just came back from the palace at this time, I'm already tired after thinking about it. If you have anything to say, why not talk about it in detail after everyone goes in first."

"Oh, oh, yes, yes, you see, the slave family is so happy at this moment, that they forgot all about it." Madam raised her hand while speaking, gently wiped away the tears rolling down her cheeks, and then stretched out her hand Pat Xiao Li and Qin Jian on the shoulders, and said with a smile: "Let's go, if you have anything to say, let's go home first."

As soon as she returned to the hall of the inner courtyard, Mrs. Xiao couldn't wait to pull Xiao Li into her arms, looked left and right, and then pushed her around in a circle, wishing to see her whole body.

"Mother~~" Xiao Li saw her mother treating her like this, her heart was filled with sweetness, and unknowingly, she even acted coquettishly at Madam Xiao: "Have you seen enough..."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but reach out and touch her nose, smiled dotingly at her, and said, "Silly girl, how can a mother get bored of seeing her own child? Besides, don't even think about it." , Mother, how long has it been since I saw you?"

After hearing this, Xiao Li couldn't help reaching out and shaking her mother's hand, swinging back and forth: "Mother... A Li knows... Mother, she is the person who loves A Li the most in this world! In fact, during this time, A Li's I have always missed my mother in my heart. I wish I could win the battle earlier and return to my mother sooner."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao raised her eyebrows and looked at her with a straight smile, and asked, "Really?"

Xiao Li pursed her lips as soon as she heard it, and said coquettishly: "Mother...you can't...don't believe Li'er?"

But Madam Xiao suddenly stretched out her hand and pulled her into her arms.She smiled and said, "I believe...I believe it! You are my mother's daughter. If my mother doesn't believe you, who else can I believe?"

When Xiao Li heard this, she couldn't help but smile sweetly.

But at this time, the general suddenly interrupted: "Ma'am, you see that A Li has returned safely. If you have anything to say, you can talk to her at any time. It's just that these days, the old man has always been thinking about it." Regarding the battle in the border town, why not let Ali tell us about the wars of these days first. There are also Jun Ke and Xu Junshi, I don’t know what is going on with them now.”

When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she couldn't help letting go of Xiao Li from her arms, nodded repeatedly and said: "Li'er, what your father said is true, these days, his mother has seen all his thoughts. You Tell me, you, a little girl, have led soldiers to fight. But he, a great general, stays in this capital every day, how aggrieved he must be."

After finishing speaking, Madam smiled at Xiao Li and said, "Why don't you just follow the general's wish and tell everyone about the battles that the border town has experienced during this period of time? Listen."

Xiao Li saw that her parents said so.He couldn't help but suddenly put away his playful face, nodded and said: "Alright then, since Daddy misses the border town, then Ah Li should first report to Daddy what happened during these days."

After that, Xiao Li started from the north, and told the general and his wife everything she saw and heard along the way, and everything she experienced after arriving at the border town.

But seeing the general and his wife in the army, they couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing when they learned that the people had been displaced due to the war.Knowing that the lieutenant general Chen Tang and the thousands of soldiers from the border town had fought bloody battles in the Jingjun camp, but they failed to rush out and were buried in the Jingjun camp, they couldn't help but suddenly burst into tears.

When he heard that Xiao Li defeated the famous general Su Da of the Mirror Army with the technique of attacking with fire, and took his life in one fell swoop, the old general couldn't help praising him, and lamented that Xiao Li really deserved to be the queen of the general family, and that he acted this time It is quite a fatherly demeanor.

However, when Xiao Li mentioned that she was careless for a while and fell into Kadar's treacherous tricks, which resulted in the masters of the Mirror Army burning the food and grass of the Ling Army's 20 troops overnight, looking at the grief on Xiao Li's face, the general couldn't help stroking Xu Ertan: "So the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, and the outcome is uncertain. However, as long as you have enough experience in war, this kind of thing can definitely be avoided. It's just Ah Li...although you are more than smart, but this battlefield experience, It's still not enough!"

After Xiao Li heard this, she couldn't help bowing her head sincerely: "What Daddy taught is right! At the beginning, A Li was full of enthusiasm and thought that war was nothing more than that. As long as I can drive the mirror army away from our border and raise the prestige of my Ling army, It's not a difficult thing. It's just that after arriving, my daughter realized that all this is not as simple as my daughter thought."

Speaking of this, Xiao Li suddenly stood up from her seat, and then walked back and forth in the hall for a few steps with her hands behind her back.

After pondering for a while, she raised her head again and said, "During this trip to the border town, my daughter really understood that what this war is about is not just the victory or defeat of the two armies. As the saying goes, one victory wins ten thousand bones. It brought countless pains to the people. As a general, not only should lead the army to win the battle, win the war, but should also minimize the number of casualties in the war. In this way, it will not Add more suffering to the common people in this world."

"En." Hearing Xiao Li's words, the General nodded appreciatively, and then said to his wife with a smile: "It seems that our A Li, this trip is not in vain. At least, in the future In the past few days, the old man believed in her, and should not do such reckless things again."

However, speaking of recklessness, Xiao Li couldn't help but suddenly think of the extreme mistake she made in Zhile Palace today.

Although Dad never mentioned that matter on the way back, in Xiao Li's heart, he always felt that he couldn't let go.

However, until this moment, the general had still not mentioned that matter.And at this time, my mother happened to ask about the eldest brother Xiao Junke.

"A Li, just now, my mother heard you talking about Jun Ke's child. You said that last time, he led a thousand elite cavalry to attack the mirror army, although in the end he finally broke out of the encirclement under your catering. But your elder brother, he , is there really nothing wrong?"

After Xiao Li heard this, she knew that her mother was worried about her elder brother and wanted to hide something, but this kind of thing needn't be elaborated, it was naturally conceivable.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help sighing softly, and said: "What mother said is true. Although that time, the elder brother was lucky and fateful, and he did not die in battle under the siege of the mirror army like the deputy general Zhentang. But after the daughter rescued the elder brother, only half of her life was left! In addition, almost all of the thousand fine riders died in the siege of the mirror army, and only 47 of them returned to my border town It’s just a strong man. As a result, the elder brother has suffered a huge physical and mental injury. If the military doctor did not treat him in time, I am afraid that the elder brother would also..."

When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she couldn't help but froze, and asked repeatedly: "Then what about him now? His injuries have healed a bit?"

But Xiao Li suddenly laughed and said: "Mother, don't you know about elder brother's temper? Even if he has only a chance to survive, how can he be willing to lose his life when such a big enemy is in front of him! So My daughter just said, Eldest brother is actually a man of great fortune and destiny, he has only recuperated in the city for half a month, and he has already led my soldiers in the border city to serve as my daughter's reserve army."

Speaking of this, Xiao Li couldn't help sighing again: "Since then, the daughter is the main attacker, and the eldest brother is the main defender, but in the end, the daughter is still a bit inferior, and almost killed my 20 troops, and lost my life! Fortunately, at that time, King Mingcheng arrived at the daughter's camp in time! It's a pity that the prince was one step late, otherwise, the daughter might not have caused General Zhang to lose his life..."

Speaking up to this point, Xiao Li's face inevitably had a trace of sadness again: "Alas... That time, my daughter almost lost her piano and sword as well."

At this moment, Qin Jian, who had been standing behind her, couldn't help but suddenly burst into tears.

As for the general and his wife, when they heard this, they couldn't help but sweat for Xiao Li.Later, after learning about the encounter between Qin Jian and Zhang Laowu, he was even more embarrassed.Stretching out her hand, Mrs. Xiao pulled Qin Jian to her side, and couldn't help hugging her again, gently patted her on the back and comforted her: "My good boy, this line of work has really made you suffer!"

However, Qin Jian could only whimper and weep, which could no longer be said.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Wang Zhong, the guard who had been following the general, couldn't help sighing: "It seems that the general is really good at predicting things. Fortunately, the general asked the emperor to send a delay for the young lady. Otherwise, this battle..."

Hearing this, Xiao Li suddenly knelt down in front of the general: "Daddy is here, please accept my daughter's worship! If it wasn't for Daddy, it would be a trivial matter for my daughter to die alone, but the 20 yuan under my daughter's hand If Dajun is gone, then she will become a daughter, a crime that cannot be repaid in eternal life."

Seeing Xiao Li like this, the general couldn't help reaching out to help her up: "Ah Li! Isn't everything over now? Daddy believes in you, even if Daddy didn't make a decision in time, my Ali I will definitely think of a way to minimize the suffering and casualties."

Xiao Li could only bow her head and smile wryly when she heard this.Secretly thought, why didn't she think of a way, and even tried to sneak into the mirror army camp alone to assassinate Kadar, but in the end, she still failed.

However, fortunately!Fortunately, Dad still made that decision!Fortunately, Huangfu Haotian just arrived at that time!
