The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

"Where are you going?"

Shen Jiarou and others didn't understand what he said, they just felt it was dangerous.

Zhang Zirou and the guards immediately stood in front of Shen Jiarou and Jiang Ruofan, and Zhang Zirou spoke hurriedly.

"Master, please leave quickly. We will take care of the aftermath."

Shen Jiarou looked at the dozens of people on the other side and finally refused.

"No, let's fight together and let Fei Mo and the others send the prince consort back."

Zhang Zirou said solemnly: "Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Zirou drew his sword immediately, and Shen Jiarou also quickly swung out the golden whip bestowed by the emperor, and many people fell to the ground with one whip.

As the two of them fought together in perfect harmony, the eldest prince and others were beaten back step by step.

The furious eldest prince had a ferocious face frowned, and before he could make a move, he was hit by Shen Jiarou's whip several times in a row.

When Shen Jiarou saw this ugly man, she was furious. If it weren't for them, how could her husband become like this?

Zhang Zirou watched Jiang Ruofan being escorted out, and hurriedly reminded the eldest prince to beat her master who had no power to fight back.

"Master, retreat."

As soon as she finished speaking, the generals brought their men over. When the eldest prince saw that something was wrong, he ran away immediately.

"Princess Regent, we are here to support you."

"General Song, if we can seize this opportunity to capture a city, it will be a great achievement. We have plenty of firecrackers."

When the Song army general heard it, he immediately responded.

"Yes, Princess Regent. Brothers, let's charge and pursue the victory."

The soldiers behind him said, "Charge."

"Go ahead."

With them taking advantage of the victory, Shen Jiarou and others quickly left here.

At this time, in the Golden Palace, Ji Chenyu received an urgent message from the border.

Luo Cheng hurriedly took the victory report from the soldier who brought the report and came to Ji Chenyu to present it respectfully.

"emperor."

Ji Chenyu took the letter and opened it, he was shocked. The court officials were also shocked by his expression.

Luo Cheng was also very confused: Did something happen at the border?

General Bai couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, what's written in the letter?"

"It is said that the regent princess's husband was held hostage by the Leping Kingdom, and they demanded that we cede a city to redeem him."

When Ji Chenyu said this, everyone in the room was shocked.

"What? The regent princess's consort is in Leping?"

"Ask us to cede a city as ransom? This is too outrageous."

The court was arguing over this matter, but most people did not agree to directly cede a city to redeem the people. After all, there were tens of thousands of people involved.

Ji Chenyu was so nervous that he rushed to Fushou Palace. He also sent someone to send a letter to Anhe Palace, asking the queen mother to come to Fushou Palace to discuss the matter together.

"Your grandson pays respect to the Imperial Grandmother. May the Imperial Grandmother be well."

"Why is the emperor here? Did he just finish his court?"

Seeing that he didn't look too good, the Empress Dowager frowned.

"But what happened?"

"Grandmother, Jiang Ruofan was taken away by the people of Leping State. They sent a letter to the soldiers at the border, asking us to cede a city to redeem him."

The Empress Dowager was shocked: "What? This..."

The Queen Mother had also arrived at Fushou Palace by this time, and the palace maids immediately announced it.

"The Queen Mother is here!"

When Ji Chenyu heard that his mother was coming, he turned around to greet her and waited for her to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager before paying his respects respectfully.

"Your son pays respect to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be well."

"Emperor, why did you call us here in such a hurry?"

"Mother, Jiang Ruofan was taken to the border of Leping State, and they asked us to cede a city to redeem him."

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager looked up in shock.

"What? They were really taken away by foreigners. This is difficult to deal with. We can't cede the city. There are tens of thousands of people there. We have no choice but to send troops."

The Empress Dowager nodded solemnly: "That's right, we have to send troops. Every piece of our Dalin territory was conquered by our ancestors and must not be ceded. That would mean abandoning tens of thousands of people."

Shen Jiarou and others arrived at the border military camp after a tiring journey. Shen Feimo put Jiang Ruofan on the built bed, and Shen Jiarou quickly waved away everyone.

"Everyone, go down and prepare hot water, clean face towels, and clothes."

Zhang Zirou and others bowed solemnly: "Yes, Master."

Shen Jiarou hurriedly fed Jiang Ruofan some water and frowned when she saw his dry and chapped lips.

"Ruofan, you've suffered a lot these days. You have to be strong and hold on for the rest of this time. When you return to the capital, everything will be fine. The children are waiting for you too."

Perhaps her nagging was useful, for the half-dead Jiang Ruofan's fingers suddenly moved, and Shen Jiarou was extremely surprised when she saw it.

After she changed him into clean clothes and dried him, Jiang Ruofan looked even paler and weaker. Shen Jiarou felt distressed. When had her husband ever suffered such a crime? It was all because of those damned barbarians. She wished she could tear them into pieces.

Zhang Zirou brought a set of silver needles from Shen Jiarou, and Shen Jiarou quickly took them out to treat Jiang Ruofan, and even put a ginseng slice in his mouth to keep him alive.

"Zi Rou, go get someone to cook some watery porridge for the Prince Consort to drink later."

"Yes, master." Looking at her master anxiously treating the prince consort, Zhang Zirou felt very uncomfortable.

On the other side, the Song generals took advantage of the victory and drove the eldest prince and others directly to another city.

The eldest prince and others who were fleeing everywhere were chased like stray dogs, and even many of their weapons were lost.

When there was no one chasing them, everyone could no longer run and sat on the ground to rest and gasp for breath.

"Prince, what should we do? We just lost a city."

The eldest prince's face was extremely gloomy at the moment, and when he heard his subordinates' words, he frowned even more.

"What to do? Just ignore it." He was so angry. He originally wanted to extort a city from Dalin, but he didn't expect to lose a city instead. He really lost both the wife and the army.

Faced with such an embarrassing thing, he was very reluctant to mention it.

Dalin Military Camp

Through Shen Jiarou's unremitting efforts, Jiang Ruofan finally woke up two hours later. He opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings, but it was completely different from Leping Country, which made him very confused.

When he saw the person next to him clearly, he was surprised and happy.

"lady?"

"Husband, it's me."

Jiang Ruofan said with tears in his eyes: "Am I dreaming? I actually dreamed of you."

Shen Jiarou held his hand tightly and said, "Husband, it's really me."

Jiang Ruofan was overjoyed and held his wife's hand with all his strength. He was afraid that if he let go, he would never be able to hold on again.

Feeling his strength, Shen Jiarou's heart ached. This was probably the longest time they had ever been apart.

"You should drink some porridge first, and then eat slowly to recuperate."

Jiang Ruofan said softly: "Okay."

Zhang Zirou brought the porridge. Shen Jiarou took a spoonful, blew on it and handed it to his mouth.

"It shouldn't be that hot anymore."

Jiang Ruofan opened his mouth slightly and ate it. They fed each other over and over again, and gradually the bowl of porridge was empty.

"Feeling better?"

"I feel much better. Thank you for your hard work, ma'am."

With tears in her eyes, Shen Jiarou smiled gently and shook her head slightly.
