Resisting the Wind and Splendor

The situation in the war in southern Mongolia quickly became clear.

Because of Yuwen Shu's defection, Yelü Han not only lost reinforcements to the Daganlu League, but also a portion of the Khitan army in the Wuerqin League fled to the Daganlu League to surrender after hearing about Yuwen Shu's defection.

Urchin League is isolated and helpless.

The Northern Cavalry, the Chu Family Army, and Prince Jin's personal guards joined forces to besiege Yelü Han. In less than half a month, Yelü Han's army suffered a crushing defeat, and he eventually fled with his personal guards.

Yelü Xiu of the Sulan Alliance was killed by the Qin family army ten days ago, and the Sulan Alliance is now under the control of the Qin family army.

The battle finally came to a complete end in the summer of the following year.

That day, Chu Yueli met someone she hadn't seen for six years.

"Uncle Zhengnan!"

The moment the title was uttered, tears welled up in Chu Yueli's eyes. Overwhelmed with emotion, she almost burst into tears.

Chu Zhengnan returned with Ning Anran.

Ning Anran and the Ming family army from the southern border rescued Chu Zhengnan and the surviving Chu family army from the Molang Mountain. Afterwards, they rushed to the Sulan Alliance to lend a helping hand to the Qin family army.

Today, with the army victoriously joining forces, Chu Yueli finally has the opportunity to meet Chu Zhengnan.

Ning Anran walked over and put her arm around Chu Yueli's shoulder. She originally wanted to say a few words of comfort with a smile, but unexpectedly, as soon as she opened her mouth, she couldn't help but let tears roll down her cheeks.

"Thank you, Ali."

"Aunt Anran, why are you thanking me?" Chu Yueli wiped away her tears.

Ning Anran wiped away her tears, laughing and crying at the same time: "If it weren't for you helping me to pull myself together that day, perhaps I wouldn't have lived to see Zheng Nan again today, I would have already..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but Chu Yueli knew.

Back then, Ning Anran shut herself off in the small courtyard of the Earl's mansion, never stepping out of the gate, just like a living dead person.

There was absolutely no sign of life in her eyes.

When Chu Yueli first tried to persuade her to come out, she was even a little scared, afraid that she would deliberately let herself die on the battlefield.

After all, for someone who has no will to live, dying is an easy thing.

Back then, the only thing that kept Ning Anran alive was her sense of responsibility.

She feared she wouldn't be able to face her husband after she died.

Looking back now, the past six years seem like they were spent in darkness every day, and I don't know how I got through them.

This time, we've finally made it through.

From a distance, Miao Yucui watched them with a constant smile on her face.

For some reason, while I was laughing, I tasted a salty flavor on my lips.

It's salty, bitter, and astringent.

Chu Zhengnan felt a pang of sadness when he saw her back.

He glanced at Chu Yueli before walking up behind Miao Yucui and softly calling out, "Sister-in-law."

"Mm." Miao Yucui nodded, but did not turn around.

She thought she was strong enough, and in fact, she had been very strong all these years.

Therefore, she didn't want anyone to see her vulnerable side.

"Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry, that day...that day..."

"What does this have to do with you? You're on different paths, and there's no way you could go back to save them."

“Sister-in-law, I know where my eldest and second cousins ​​are buried.”

"What?" Chu Yueli, who had just arrived, felt her legs go weak and she almost lost her balance and fell down.

Fortunately, Lu Beimo was standing right beside her, and with a quick stretch of his long arm, he immediately pulled her into his embrace.

“I know they are buried in the mountain streams of Urchin League.”
