Chapter 200 Finding a Husband in the Borderlands
In the valley battle four months ago, Mu Lingzhi escaped death and suffered injuries all over his body, but he still thought about what Yu Ruyan said to him when he left, which made him hold his last breath in his heart and leave his last breath survived!

She said, Mu Lingzhi, I'll wait for you in Zhuangzi, you must come back to me...

Yes, she was waiting for him, how could he be willing to die? !
That night, he didn't know how many big Wei killers he killed, and he didn't know how many swords hit him.He was just fighting bravely with red eyes...

After being fatally stabbed by Si Rong, he fell into the rushing stream, a wave swept him away, and he completely lost consciousness...

He was rescued at the lower end of the river by two hidden guards who returned to the valley, and was later brought back to Daqi by Chen Yiqing who rushed to rescue him.

Because Xie Yuhan was pregnant, Chen Yiqing originally stayed with her at home.However, because of the battle with the Great Wei a year ago, Chen Yiqing, like Mu Lingzhi, did not dare to take that ambitious Sima Rong lightly, so he kept his subordinates paying attention to the movements on the border of the Great Wei.

Recently, he discovered that after a year, Wei's soldiers and horses began to move around again.

In the first reaction, Chen Yiqing thought that Wei was going to use troops against Qi again, so he hurried to the border to stand firm.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the border in person, he discovered that Wei's soldiers and horses were acting strangely this time. Judging from their movements, they looked like they were going to attack Daliang.

So, he quietly sent a message to Mu Lingzhi, asking Daliang to beware of Wei.

After Mu Lingzhi received his summons, he immediately dispatched secret guards to check the border. However, before the secret guards came back, he was ambushed by Sima Rong in the valley...

Chen Yiqing brought him back to Daqi, who was dying and had only his last breath left, for rescue.

Mu Lingzhi was injured too badly this time, especially Sima Rong's last knife in the chest almost killed him.

When he woke up, it was already three months later...

As soon as he woke up, he immediately asked the dark guard to go to Qingyun Villa to pick up Yu Ruyan.

After the two hidden guards rushed to Qingyun Villa, what they heard was that everyone in the Zhuangzi was saying that Yu Ruyan was pregnant with Yue Yu's child and was raising the baby in the Zhuangzi.Later, when they saw Yue Yu guarding Yu Ruyan's side all the time, the two hidden guards couldn't help being shocked...

Thinking that their master almost died because of her, but she was pregnant with someone else's child in a blink of an eye, the two hidden guards felt very sad and angry.In the end, instead of taking Yu Ruyan back, they returned to Daqi and told Mu Lingzhi, who was recuperating, that Yu Ruyan was pregnant with Yue Yu's child...

The moment Mu Lingzhi heard the news, he collapsed...

He had doubts, he didn't believe that Yu Ruyan would forget him so quickly.

But later when he thought of Yu Ruyan in the valley, he kept thinking about Yue Yu and Qingyun Villa.He thought desperately in his heart, perhaps, for her who had lost her memory, Yue Yu was the first one to give her warm care by her side, so Yue Yu occupied her heart before him, leaving no room for her to come again contain yourself...

Hearing that she was pregnant, Mu Lingzhi was so sad——

He thought that he had no fate with her after all.

She couldn't conceive a child with herself for so long, but with Yue Yu, in such a short period of time, she could conceive a child as she wished.

All of this may be destined by God!

After Chen Yiqing knew about Yu Ruyan, she was afraid that he would not be able to bear the blow, so she came to drink with him, and asked him hesitantly, if she hated Yu Ruyan and Yue Yu in her heart?
Hearing this, Mu Lingzhi stared blankly at the full moon outside the window, and couldn't help but think of the way Yu Ruyan drank in his heart on the last night in the valley...

Feeling pain in his heart, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, his expression remained calm, he gritted his teeth and suppressed the trembling in his voice, and said, "I have disappeared for more than three months, and even the treacherous Sima Rong thought I died in the valley... I think she thought I was dead after all, so she was with Big Brother..."

Just like the time when Yu Ruyan wanted to leave with Yue Yu.In this world, anyone who robs Yu Ruyan from him, he can fight him desperately, put the sword up to his neck, even a small knife is no exception.

But facing Yue Yu alone, he couldn't be as tough as facing other people because of the guilt he had felt towards him in his heart over the past decades, and what the Daliang royal family and his father owed him to him. Snatch her from his hand.

What's more, now she is pregnant with his child...

"If I really die in the valley, I really hope that after I die, she can be with Brother Da. With him by her side to accompany and take care of her, I can feel at ease."

"So, if you say you hate, you don't hate. If you say you don't hate, you still hate... Everything, let him go."

"Right now, I'm just thinking about how to break Sima Rong's situation, solve the danger of Liang, and avenge the valley!"

Mu Lingzhi deeply buried the depression and pain in his heart.After the wounds on his body healed, he and Chen Yiqing started to lead troops to attack Wei's lair...

Because their actions were too sudden and swift, they actually defeated Dawei and captured the old emperor alive, but the news had not yet spread to both sides of the battle between Daliang and Dawei.

Yue Yu, who was the first to get the news that Mu Lingzhi was still alive, was filled with joy——

Tomorrow morning, the news about Mu Lingzhi's survival and his capture of the Great Wei Emperor will surely spread throughout the world.Then, in the final battle between Daliang and Wei, don't think too much, Daliang's chances of winning are much higher immediately.

In the hearts of Daliang people, Mu Lingzhi is their god of war and patron saint, especially in the eyes of the generals brought out by him, he is like a god.Therefore, as long as he heard the news that he was not dead, it was the greatest encouragement for the soldiers.

When the two countries are at war, morale is of course the most important thing when the situation is evenly matched.

On the contrary, Wei Wei, who had always held a high chance of winning, this time heard that Mu Lingzhi was not dead, and took down their capital and captured their old emperor alive with lightning speed. There is no need to fight anymore, Wei's army is already weak and has no fighting spirit!
As for the prince, Sima Rong, after learning the news that Guo Po's father was captured.He has no other choice but to lead the troops back immediately to save the country and save his father.

Moreover, even if he insisted on fighting Daliang regardless of Wei and his father, Daliang would not be afraid.Because Mu Lingzhi will lead his troops back to Daliang soon, and attack Wei's troops with the King of Liang from behind.

At that time, the history of his disastrous defeat a year ago will have to repeat itself...

Of course Yue Yu knew the importance of this news, so after getting the news, he sent the news to King Liang without stopping.

But Yue Yu was most happy for Yu Ruyan.

If she knew that Mu Lingzhi was still alive, she might be very happy.

Before he had time to tell her the good news, Yu Ruyan had already told him that she had dreamed about Mu Lingzhi.

Looking at the tear-wet pillow cover and the tear stains on her face, Yue Yu felt very heartbroken.

Raising his hand to help her dry her eyes, he said with a smile: "This time, Big Brother brought back the best news in the world for you, don't cry!"

Hearing this, Yu Ruyan looked at Yue Yu who stretched his brows in a daze, and was startled——

Since the war between the two countries, Yue Yu Qingjun's eyebrows have never stretched, and he has been worried that the country of Daliang will be breached all day long.Sometimes, I heard from the maidservants that he had difficulty falling asleep at night, tossing and turning in bed, coughing all night...

It's been a long time since I saw him so happy, so Yu Ruyan couldn't help but asked curiously: "Brother Yue, what good news can you tell me? Could it be that Daliang and Wei have stopped fighting?"

Yue Yu smiled gently, and with a smile in his clear eyes, he said joyfully: "This war has come to this day, even if Da Wei wants to retreat, our new emperor will not let him go so easily. So, this is indeed the case. A piece of good news!"

"And the best news is——your husband, Mu Lingzhi, is not dead, he is still alive!"

Before Yue Yu finished speaking, Yu Ruyan was shocked!

She looked at Yue Yu in disbelief, and the expression of shock on her face was even more shocking than when she found out that she was pregnant with a child!
"...He, he, he is still alive! Great, great..."

It took a long time for Yu Ruyan to recover from the shock, she was so excited that she cried and laughed at the same time.

Just now, she was deeply saddened by seeing his tragic death in her dream, but now, hearing the shocking good news that Yue Yu brought her, Yu Ruyan was so happy that she was overwhelmed, she burst into tears with excitement.

She couldn't believe it and asked Yue Yu repeatedly: "Brother Da, is he really alive? Where is he now? Will he come to Qingyun Villa to pick me up..."

Seeing her overwhelmed with joy, Yue Yu was also happy for her in his heart, and smiled gently: "He is the God of War in Daliang, the patron saint of the people, and it would be so easy to die there!"

"He is now leading troops to attack Wei's lair. According to news, he has successfully captured the capital of Wei and captured the emperor of Wei. Presumably, he will return to the court in a short time. When the time comes, naturally I will come to pick you up...Leave!"

Thinking of her leaving, Yue Yu's eyes darkened slightly, and a lot of reluctance and sadness arose in his heart!

Although she knew that from the beginning to the end, she only had Mu Ling in her heart, and he would never be able to enter her heart again.And after losing her memory, she even forgot his hurt and love for her before, and treated him as her own brother wholeheartedly...

But even knowing that there is no chance between him and her in this life, Yue Yu still wants to see her every day.

With her in this village, he felt a little bit of home here, and he was no longer alone here alone...

He lowered his eyebrows to hide the disappointed expression on his face, and seeing Yu Ruyan's appearance that he was about to go down the mountain to find Mu Lingzhi, Yue Yu hurriedly said: "Now he is busy with the battle, so he probably will be very busy. And he The place is also very dangerous. You are pregnant, so you must not take the risk of going to the front line to find him, it is better to stay here and take care of the baby, and when he finishes his work, he will come back to pick you up!"

Yu Ruyan saw Yue Yu see through her thoughts at a glance, and a blush rose on her face.

Yes, after learning the news that Mu Lingzhi was still alive, she couldn't stay still for a moment, and wished she could go down the mountain to find Mu Lingzhi immediately.

However, after listening to Yue Yu's words, and looking at how she looks now with a big belly, for the safety of the child in her belly, she really shouldn't rush down to the front line to find him in this turbulent time.

Suppressing the disappointment and helplessness in her heart, Yu Ruyan pondered for a while, finally nodded her head in response to Yue Yu's words, and said: "Brother Da Da is right, now that there is a lot of chaos outside, it is really inconvenient for him to lead troops to fight. I...then, I have to continue to bother Big Brother, and bother in Zhuangzi..."

As soon as she was in a good mood, Yu Ruyan showed the shyness of her little daughter on her face, she was completely different from the grieving look before, which made Yue Yu feel even more sad.

After that sutra, Yu Ruyan completely settled down, and while raising her baby in Zhuangzi with peace of mind, she happily waited for Mu Lingzhi to come back victorious and come to pick her up...

She often thought sweetly in her heart, thinking of Mu Lingzhi's surprise and shock when she found out that she was pregnant with his child, imagining his happy and surprised appearance, Yu Ruyan's heart was really sweet as honey!

……

The battle between Daliang and Sima Rong was indeed as Yue Yu expected——

On the eve of the battle between Liang and Wei, news came that Mu Lingzhi was still alive.

This news immediately shocked both sides of the war——

Xiao Dao, who has just ascended the throne, has such a strong attitude when facing the invasion of the Great Wei this time. Despite the dissuasion of the ministers, he insists on the imperial conquest. In addition to trying his best to preserve the thousands of miles left by his father, there is another very important reason It was because he wanted to kill Sima Rong on the battlefield to avenge his imperial brother.

Now that he suddenly learned that Mu Lingzhi was still alive, and bravely broke through the capital of the Great Wei Dynasty and took the old emperor alive, he solved Daliang's dilemma in time at the last moment!

While Xiaodao was excited and happy, it was indeed as Yue Yu expected, he was not willing to let Sima Rong who wanted to retreat so easily!

Thinking of the poisonous hands he had done to his imperial brother and sister, thinking of how he was rushing into his territory like a jackal and tiger.This hatred of the country and the family, how can he let him go with a temperament that distinguishes between love and hate with a small knife!
Therefore, when Sima Rong also heard the news, was in chaos, and wanted to send troops back to protect the country and save people, Xiaodao opened the city gate first, led an army of 30 troops, and rushed to the Wei army camp that was already in chaos...

In less than three days, the army led by Xiaodao wiped out more than 50 soldiers and horses of the Wei invaders, and successfully drove the Wei invaders out of Daliang territory.

Just like a year ago, Great Wei suffered another disastrous defeat, and the cunning Sima Rong also escaped again...

Hearing the news of Daliang's victory from the foot of the mountain, Yue Yu was relieved, and Yu Ruyan was even more delighted. She thought joyfully, now that the battle is over, Mu Lingzhi should come to the village to pick her up, right? !

From then on, Yu Ruyan stood at the gate of Qingyun Villa with her big belly every day, waiting for Mu Lingzhi's arrival, just like when she just came to Zhuangzi.

This time, her heart was full of joy and joy, she was no longer as sad and anxious as before, and her heart was full of joy of reuniting with him!

However, after waiting day after day, the child in her womb grew older, the maple leaves in the back mountain were all red, and the war was over for a long time, she still did not look forward to Mu Lingzhi's return.

Gradually, her joyful face was stained with anxiety again. She couldn't figure out why Mu Lingzhi didn't come to the villa to pick her up when everything was stable.
In the end, she couldn't help but ask Yue Yu to go down the mountain to help her find out about Mu Lingzhi.

When she walked into Yue Yu's study room, he was staring at the letter in his hand in a daze.

Seeing her coming in, he panicked, and quickly hid the letter in his hand under the rice paper, and said with a slightly embarrassed expression: "Why are you here?"

Yue Yu's actions did not hide from Yu Ruyan's eyes.

Seeing his flustered appearance, anxiety flashed in her heart, she couldn't help but took two steps forward, and said anxiously: "Brother Da, the war has been over for so long, why is there no news from Ling Zhi? He...why didn't he come to the villa pick me up?"

Yue Yu thought of the news on the letterhead just now, his heart sank, his eyes couldn't help hesitating a bit, he didn't dare to look at Yu Ruyan's probing eyes, and said guiltily: "Perhaps, he still has something to do..."

Yu Ruyan's eyes were fixed on Yue Yu's condition all the time, seeing his dodging gaze and guilty tone, her heart sank even more...

Suddenly, she pointed to the rice paper on the table in front of him and said, "Brother Bigger, do you have something to hide from me?"

Up until now, many doubts had flooded Yue Yu's heart, knowing that he couldn't hide it from her, he had to take out the letterhead and hand it to her, and said in a deep voice, "You...you can see for yourself!"

Yu Ruyan took the letter paper and looked at what was written on it word by word. The more she looked behind, the uglier her face became...

Seeing the end, Yu Ruyan felt a chill in her heart, and the letter fell to the ground feebly...

She stared blankly at Yue Yu who was frowning, and said in panic: "Brother Yue, what exactly does this mean?"

Yue Yu said in a deep voice: "Mu Ling teamed up with Da Qi this time and successfully captured Da Wei. King Liang and King Qi made an agreement to include Wu Kingdom, which was close to the south and destroyed by Da Wei, into Da Qi's territory. And the former Great Wei was included in the territory of Daliang..."

"This time, Mu Lingzhi's treatment of Daliang was originally a great achievement. Not only did he relieve the country's crisis, but he also added thousands of miles of territory to Daliang. He is indeed Daliang's greatest hero..."

"And the King of Liang really wanted to reward him well. He originally wanted to reward him with the land of Great Wei as a fief, and let him go to the fief and become king, but..."

"...But, Mu Lingzhi voluntarily begged to guard the most remote frontier for Daliang in this life—never return to Daliang for the rest of his life!"

Yu Ruyan couldn't believe it and murmured to herself: "He will guard the border for the rest of his life and never return to Daliang!? Then why didn't he come pick me up and go to the border together? Is he going to leave me alone? Big brother... I What should I do?"

Thinking that I had been looking forward to it for so long, waiting for him to pick me up with full of hope, I never thought that he would go to the remote border without a word, abandon myself, and leave alone...

Tears poured down like rain, and the hopeful heart was instantly empty.

Yu Ruyan didn't understand, he clearly knew that he was here and that he had been waiting for him, why didn't he come to see her, why didn't he come to pick her up...

However, what she didn't know was that one month ago, after the war ended, Mu Ling alone had quietly come to Qingyun Villa...

Ever since he heard that she was with Yue Yu and was pregnant with his child, Mu Lingzhi lived like a walking corpse. He turned the pain all over his body into the power of war, and led his soldiers along the way to successfully destroy the remaining remnants of Wei. The powers were wiped out one by one, and after sending the Great Wei's Imperial Seal back to Daliang, he voluntarily asked to be ordered to guard the newly opened frontier of Daliang for the rest of his life, and never enter Daliang again...

Although the pain in his heart was unbearable, when he left Daliang to go to the remote frontier, he couldn't resist the longing in his heart. He gritted his teeth and went to Qingyun Villa quietly at night to see her one last time!
At that time, he quietly lurked on the roof of the courtyard where Yu Ruyan lived, and through the distant branches, he saw Yu Ruyan sitting on the small table in front of the window, sewing children's clothes.

Seeing her suddenly after not seeing her for several months, Mu Lingzhi's heart almost jumped out.

She was a little fatter, and her body was also plump due to pregnancy. From the looks of it, she had a good life here.

Several times he couldn't help but wanted to jump off the roof to see her and talk to her.But several times he took a step and abruptly retracted——

Seeing her with a big belly, he wondered if he would frighten her if he went on like this?Will it embarrass her?What can I say to her again?

However, even if there were 1 reasons for him not to go down to see her.However, no amount of reasons could be worth the longing for her in his heart.

So, he finally decided to go down to see her for the last time, even if it was just to say goodbye to her!

However, just when he mustered up all his courage to go down, and at this moment, Yue Yu pushed open the courtyard door and came back.

Mu Lingzhi had to stop again. He listened to Yue Yu asking the maidservants what kind of food Yu Ruyan ate in a day?Have a good rest?What did you do today...

Yue Yu asked every detail about everything, then walked into the room, came to Yu Ruyan's side, bent down to look at the clothes she was making...

Being far away, Mu Lingzhi couldn't hear what they said.But he could clearly see the deep love and concern in Yue Yu's eyes when he looked at Yu Ruyan, and Yu Ruyan also showed him the clothes in her hands with joy.

The man is handsome and unparalleled, and the woman is gorgeous and charming, staying together, they are such a good match...

Mu Lingzhi's heart ached, as if a knife was piercing his painful heart...

However, no matter what, he couldn't resent the two people in the house.

He thought, instead of living an uncomfortable life with him, maybe like now, following Yue Yu's side and living the most peaceful and peaceful life is the best destination for Yu Ruyan!

He came alone, left alone, went to the frontier, and never came back...

Neither Yu Ruyan nor Yue Yu knew that Mu Lingzhi had been to Qingyun Villa, let alone that he had misunderstood the relationship between the two, and even mistook his own child as Yue Yu's. Understand why he left Yu Ruyan and walked the frontier alone!
I thought about it all night.Early the next morning, Yu Ruyan packed her luggage and came to say goodbye to Yue Yu. She was going to the frontier to find Mu Lingzhi!
Yue Yu already guessed what she was thinking, so he didn't stop her from leaving, but said: "You are only a few months away from giving birth, and the journey to the frontier here is far away, how can you reassure me by yourself? Since it was him at the beginning Leave you in my care, and now, I am also responsible for sending you to him in good condition." After that, without allowing her to refuse, she was the first to leave the door!
In the bleak early winter, Yu Ruyan embarks on a long journey to find her husband...

In order to make her feel more comfortable when she was on the road, Yue Yu ordered people to spread several layers of thick blankets in the spacious carriage, and prepared the things she would use along the way, but even so, this It is also extremely hard for a pregnant woman who is about to give birth.

But no matter how hard and tiring she was, Yu Ruyan didn't say she was tired, she just hoped to reach the frontier sooner and see Mu Lingzhi sooner.

The further north you go, the colder it gets.Heavy snow is flying, wind and sand are all over the sky, ice and snow are everywhere, and the weather is getting worse...

After driving for a month in such a cold weather, Yue Ji's old illness broke out, but he fell ill!

Seeing Yue Yu fell ill, Yu Ruyan was very anxious, and asked the carriage to stop at an inn along the way, wanting him to have a good rest and leave after he recovered from his illness.

But close to the border, apart from the wind and snow all over the place, there is a piece of yellow sand everywhere, not to mention the inn, even ordinary residents have never seen it.

After Yue Yu coughed violently, he looked at Yu Ruyan's worried expression, smiled weakly, and comforted him: "I'm an old problem, it's okay."

He struggled to unfold the map in his arms, and after reading it, he said with joy: "In half a day, we will reach Hecheng on the border, where Mu Lingzhi is. So, let's not stop any longer, and hurry on our way." , rush to the city before dark!"

After hearing his words, Yu Ruyan's heart was beating with excitement——

Thinking of the hard work of traveling for more than a month, and thinking that she would see Mu Lingzhi soon, Yu Ruyan was so excited that her whole body trembled, and she obeyed Yue Yu's words and asked the driver to speed up to Hecheng. rush.

In the evening, they could already see the high walls and continuous houses of Hecheng, everyone was overjoyed, and the coachman drove towards the city at high speed with whips.

However, at this moment, the way forward of the carriage was blocked by someone.

Before the carriage braked to a stop, countless men in black jumped out and surrounded the carriage.

Hearing the noise outside, both Yue Yu and Yu Ruyan were startled.When they opened the curtain of the car and saw the long scimitars in the hands of those men in black, Yu Ruyan felt a chill all over her body!
In countless scary dreams, she would think of that terrible night in the valley, and the clothes of these people and the scimitars in their hands were exactly the same as those of the big Wei killers in the valley!
Yu Ruyan's whole body fell into an ice cave, and she looked at the adopted killer of Wei in shock.

The killer leader riding on a tall horse saw the terrified and desperate look on Yu Ruyan's face, and felt a little bit of satisfaction in his endlessly resentful heart, and a vicious smile evoked on his evil face!

The next moment, with a wave of his hand, he took off the black cloth on his face, revealing the evil face that scares Yu Ruyan the most.

Under the wind and sand all over the sky, a pair of eyes that were as dark as a falcon eagle shone with a satisfied cold light!
The one blocking their way was none other than Sima Rong who escaped from the knife!
