Before late autumn, Jiang Pengji successfully arrived at the Chongzhou capital with more than 10,000 troops and horses and the little princess's resentment buff.
Chongzhou was more northerly than Wanzhou, and the omen of winter could already be felt.
When Feng Zhen and Qiguan Rang each held onto their fur cloaks and refused to let go, Jiang Pengji was still graceful.
"Zhengtu, is there anyone in front to receive us?"
Jiang Pengji called out to Fu Wang, who was leading the troops from a distance.
Fu Wang led the troops to clear the way. His burly and strong body rode on a tall horse. He was born with a dignified aura.
However, such an extraordinary and valiant man had now furrowed his brows into a knot.
Just by looking at his face, outsiders could tell that he had a lot on his mind.
Hearing his lord's call from behind, Fu Wang's heart overflowed with anxiety.
Jiang Pengji knew what he was anxious about.
Fu Wang seemed to miss Huijun very much. He often sent her all kinds of things through the hands of others.
Sometimes it was rouge and face powder that women liked, sometimes it was brightly colored silk satin, sometimes it was just one or two bunches of ordinary wild flowers. Occasionally, he even copied some interesting words for her. If he received something good, he would not forget to send it to her.
However, no matter how Fu Wang tried to be friendly, Huijun avoided meeting him.
What a joke. How could she let him see her appearance?
Counting from the end of April, she was almost five months pregnant. She could not use the excuse of getting fat to coax a child to fool Fu Wang.
Instead of being caught red-handed by him, it was better to continue hiding and wait until she gave birth to the child.
Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes.
The weather was nice that day. Huijun was pregnant and prepared to carry books to the courtyard to read in detail to recharge herself.
She did not want to be a burden to her Langjun. After the child was born, she still had to find a way to make a living and support her mother and son.
Jiang Pengji knew her plan. She turned around and got Huijun a precious teaching material on arithmetic.
I forgot to mention that ever since Jiang Pengji suggested the division of subjects, Cheng Cheng and Master Yuanjing forgot to eat and sleep. They referred to the "Formula of Arithmetic" that Jiang Pengji gave them and searched for ancient books on related subjects. They came up with a rough teaching material on basic arithmetic.
If Huijun learned well, he could arrange for her to learn from Xu Ke after she gave birth and learn how to manage the household affairs.
Just as she was charging, she realized that a large patch of dark clouds had descended on her head.
When she looked up, a tall and burly general stood in front of her, blocking the sun above her head.
The other party's tiger eyes stared at her lower abdomen in confusion. His whole body froze on the spot, motionless, as if someone had pressed the pause button.
At that moment, Huijun was so shocked that her soul almost left her body.
This face, she was not dead.
Huijun was so frightened that she did not even bother to put on her wooden clogs. She got up and pushed Fu Wang away, running barefoot into the house.
Fu Wang: "…"
Huijun was not as tall as Fu Wang. Not only were her legs shorter, but she also had to take care of the child in her belly, so she did not dare to run too fast.
Before she could take two steps, Fu Wang grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back.
"Mine?"
Fu Wang stared at her stomach and raised his eyebrows.
Huijun did not say a word. Fu Wang picked her up and placed her in the corridor. He then picked up her wooden clogs.
"Forget it, it's yours anyway."
Fu Wang had been in Wanzhou for some time. Although Jiang Pengji had long concealed Huijun's identity, if Fu Wang was determined to investigate, he would more or less find out something. Moreover, when Fu Wang met Huijun, she was still the empress of the Dongqing Emperor.
"I'm going to Chongzhou with the lord to prepare for the war. I'm afraid I won't be back for a few years, so I wanted to come and see you."
He did not expect her to give him such a big surprise. He was almost scared out of his wits.
Huijun did not speak. She only used her right hand to cover her stomach and her left hand to tightly grasp the teaching materials that Jiang Pengji had given her.
"I've asked the lord. You're unmarried now."
The Dongqing Emperor was completely dead, and the fourth prince, Wuma Jun, was only left with a skeleton. Huijun should be considered a widow now.
Since she was a widow, she was unmarried.
After a while, Fu Wang tried to reach out to touch Huijun's stomach. She was so scared that her whole body tensed up.
"When I come back, I'll teach him martial arts and reading. I won't let you work too hard. If you run into any trouble, take this to my former deputy general. He's stationed here now. If he sees this thing, he'll definitely help you if he can. "
Huijun looked at Fu Wang with a strange expression. He was not even sure who the child in her stomach belonged to. How dare he say that?
Fu Wang was talking to himself. Huijun said with slight awkwardness, "Fu … General Fu, what do you mean?"
"You've accepted all the things I've given you over the past few months."
After hearing that, Huijun almost could not react.
She thought that Fu Wang's first reaction when he saw her was to take something and chop her into pieces to vent his anger.
At Jiamen Pass, if she had not purposely set a trap for Fu Wang, even if he had lost, he would not have lost so badly.
She did not think that this man was really interested in her.
Fu Wang passed the token that he always carried with him to her hand. He said a few words in a hurry, then climbed over the wall and left.
Huijun was speechless.
She was wondering how Fu Wang, this uncouth man, could sneak in without a sound. Did he climb over the wall?
Thinking of this, Huijun could not help but frown.
"Lecher, you actually think that the lord's backyard is your home!"
Fu Wang liked Huijun. Knowing that she was pregnant, he changed the things he usually gave her to good medicinal herbs that were gentle and nourishing.
As for whose child Huijun was, he did not think much about it.
Cang Prefecture was located in the north, and part of it was bordered by the Mutated Tribe.
The Mutated Tribe was fierce and often killed people. The border was in constant chaos, causing women to lose their husbands and children to lose their fathers.
After many women lost their husbands, they would still bring their ex-husband's child to marry their current husband. The current husband was also generous to his stepson, and most of them treated him like his own. This was because no one knew when something would happen to them. Raising their stepson seriously was no different from raising their own son.
Fu Wang had been raised by a pack of wolves, and his adoptive father, Fu Yang, had brought him along. He had lived in such a tough environment for more than ten years.
Under the influence of what he saw and heard, Fu Wang did not feel too conflicted.
As long as Huijun was his, then Huijun's child would also be his.
He was currently preoccupied because when he left, he had sneaked a look at Huijun and found that her belly had grown a lot bigger.
Fu Wang had once seen a woman give birth, and that had been a psychological scar for the rest of his life.
There was a peasant family at the border. The husband had recently passed away, and the wife, who was more than nine months pregnant, could only manage the household and bear the heavy burden of field work. Unexpectedly, she was too tired, and her amniotic fluid broke, and she was about to give birth on the spot. At that time, Fu Wang was still living with the wolf pack. Because it was autumn, it was not easy to find food, so he could only leave the wolf pack's territory and search for prey further away. Coincidentally, he met the woman lying in the field, her legs wide open. A baby's head with fetal hair was slowly coming out of her womb. The young Fu Wang was so scared that he was sweating all over.
