The deputy general's heart ached when he heard this. Their military advisor was too kind-hearted. If only he had secretly killed Yuan Xin, that boorish fellow, long ago.
Nie Xun said, "I still have something on my mind …"
The deputy general said, "Military counselor, please say it."
Nie Xun said, "Do you know how to read?"
The deputy general said, "I only know a few words. I don't dare to show off in front of the military counselor."
Nie Xun's breathing quickened and his eyes became more and more tired. He forced himself to say, "Help me prepare a brush and ink and write a letter to my wife and daughter. Yuan Xin is narrow-minded and holds grudges. If I'm gone, there will only be an orphan and a widow left at home. I'm afraid they will be bullied. Even if the lord takes pity on them and is willing to take care of them, there are many troubles at the widow's door. He can't take care of them forever. "
Although the lord will take care of the widow of his subjects, it can't be compared to blood relatives.
Nie Xun said desolately, "Are you willing to write a letter for me … I want my wife to bring my daughter to the Yue family. The Yue family is a famous family in Dongqing and they only have one daughter … If my wife has two elders to take care of her, I can die in peace. "
The deputy general said, "I'm willing."
Nie Xun revealed a light smile of relief, "Thank you."
The deputy general looked at him and the seven-foot tall man couldn't help but be envious.
He asked someone to prepare a blank scroll and brush. Nie Xun couldn't take it anymore and fell into a deep sleep. He woke him up an hour later.
Nie Xun dictated and the deputy general wrote.
"I have a private seal in my bosom. My wife will know the authenticity of the letter by stamping it."
The private seal was like an identity card to the people of this era. It was unique and recognizable.
Nie Xun had a few seals. Some were used for official business and some were used for personal relationships. Only the one in his bosom was carved by him and his wife, Zhu Qingning. One was written in Yin and the other in Yang. Each had a mandarin duck and the nickname they gave each other.
This kind of private item would usually not be exposed in front of others.
The deputy general took out the private seal and carefully stamped it at the end of the scroll.
Seeing the private seal, the deputy general was secretly shocked at the relationship between Nie Xun and his wife.
Nie Xun had used up all his energy and he had a low fever. He couldn't resist the drowsiness and fell asleep again.
The army couldn't privately send documents to the outside world. Otherwise, they would be suspected of betrayal. They had to go through the official channels.
Nie Xun used to handle this kind of thing, but now he was about to kneel, so the letter naturally fell into Yuan Xin's hands.
The letter was very normal and short. Nie Xun told his wife that if anything happened to him, there was no need for her to wait for him. She could just marry herself. Because his situation was not very good, he was worried that his wife and daughter would not have anyone to take care of them, so he hoped that they would go to the Yue Clan.
"Nie Xun's family?"
"Who is Yue's Nie Xun's family?"
Yuan Xin stared at the letter and thought for a while. He finally remembered that Nie Xun's in-laws were Master Yuanjing, a famous scholar in Dongqing.
"to to Du Xin," Yuan's said., Yuan's words.
Although Master Yuanjing had not publicly surrendered to Jiang Pengji, everyone knew that Master Yuanjing had been a teacher in Wanzhou for many years.
"Even though he didn't surrender to Jiang Pengji, everyone knows he's been a teacher in Wanzhou for many years."
"If Zhu Qingning takes his daughter to the Yue family, won't he be going to Jiang Pengji?"
Moreover, if Nie Xun really died, would his Master mistreat this orphan and widow? Was there a need for them to seek shelter from the Yue Clan?
However, Nie Xun's request was reasonable and reasonable, and he was heavily injured by Yuan Xin, so Yuan Xin couldn't reject him directly, in case he was criticized for being heartless.
Yuan Xin asked the deputy general, "How is the counselor's condition?"
"Nie Xun is still lying in the Gates of Hell."
Yuan Xin didn't believe him. He called the military doctor over. The military doctor explained in detail, but the content was similar.
Yuan Xin didn't believe it, so he called the military doctor over. The military doctor explained in detail, but the content was more or less the same.
Yuan Xin didn't believe him. He called the military doctor over. The military doctor told him in detail, but the content was similar.
First of all, this letter could not pass through the hands of the lord, Huang Song. Otherwise, the lord would know that he was the one who injured Nie Xun in front of the battle and would definitely remove him from his position and capture him. Next, Nie Xun was about to die. His survival rate was very low. Yuan Xin couldn't keep his will.
After thinking about it, Yuan Xin still approved the letter.
"Send a horse to deliver the letter to the wife of the military counselor."
Nie Xun's wife, Zhu Qingning, was in Hede County in Haozhou. Hede County was not far from here. It would take five or six days to get there.
Nie Xun's condition had been worsening. He didn't wake up for long. Sometimes, he was delirious from the fever.
Yuan Xin also sneaked a peek.
Nie Xun's original appearance was stunning. The cinnabar between his eyebrows enhanced his looks.
Ninety percent of the women in the world would be ashamed of their looks. Only Wei Ci could compete with Nie Xun in this aspect.
Her appearance was leisurely and unparalleled. She would be too long if she was a bit more, and too short if she was a bit less. Her eyebrows were like green feathers, and her skin was as white as snow.
Now, his skin was dark yellow and he looked haggard. His body was thinner and he looked like a bag of bones.
His breathing was weak and intermittent. It was as if a soul-reaper was crouching beside him, waiting for him to die.
At the thought of this, Yuan Xin felt the temperature in the tent turn cold. He left after saying, "Take care of the military counselor."
Seeing this, the military doctor let out a long sigh.
After Yuan Xin left and the military doctor went out to get medicine, Nie Xun opened his eyes weakly. There was an unfathomable depth in his eyes.
"Heh …"
The corners of his mouth curled up into a mysterious smile.
Zhu Qingning had been feeling anxious for a while. Her daughter cried for the whole night. Her face was red and she was crying so hard that she was almost out of breath. She had no choice but to seek medical advice. She even invited a few mistresses who helped exorcise evil spirits to come to the mansion to check the Fengshui.
The mistress couldn't figure out the reason and could only say vaguely, "There's chaos outside. There are countless resentful spirits. The little lady is still young. She hasn't formed her skull yet. Her soul is easily infected by evil spirits … She might have bumped into something. Why don't you let me cast a spell and try? "
Zhu Qingning didn't believe this at first. But her daughter had been crying for a few days. She couldn't figure out the reason and could only believe the mistress.
After the spell, the mistress gave Zhu Qingning a few yellow talismans that could cure children's crying at night.
After Zhu Qingning put them on the child, she hung them around her daughter's room.
Unexpectedly, the yellow talismans were really effective. That night, the crying quieted down. Her daughter cried for a while before she was coaxed to sleep.
Zhu Qingning immediately prepared a lot of gold and silver for this mistress.
Although this mistress wasn't a swindler, she wasn't that magical either. She wasn't sure herself and was prepared to run away.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Qingning sent someone to give her a generous reward the next day. The mistress was so happy that she could see her teeth but not her eyes. She simply took all the credit. A few days later, a letter from home from the frontlines was delivered to the mansion. After reading it, Zhu Qingning's face turned pale and she burst into tears.
After crying, she regained her senses and immediately sent people to pack up their belongings and important items. She also prepared enough guards and horses to go north.
Because Lady Qi wasn't in Hede County, no one stopped Zhu Qingning's big move.
More than a hundred guards escorted the mother and daughter and a lot of their belongings north.
As long as they avoided the frontlines, the journey was still very safe.
Zhu Qingning grabbed the letter and flipped it over. She vaguely understood the real reason why her daughter had been crying non-stop a few days ago.
