Chapter 114 Dream
Chapter 114 Dream
In a coma, Anton-jun's consciousness was floating, as if he was caught in an irresistible dream.
In those dreams, he returned to the precious time he spent with his master and his two companions in the Sword Pavilion.
He seemed to feel again the strictness and expectations of his master when he taught Lu Linxuan martial arts, and every time the little girl was wronged, she would always comfort and bully Li Xingyun to vent her anger.
The little junior sister's bright eyes also twinkled in his dreams. Her wit and liveliness always brought a touch of ease and fun to the dull life in Jianlu.
He went up the mountain with Li Xingyun to collect herbs. Their figures intertwined in the sunlight, and their sweat and laughter intertwined to become the happiest days of his youth.
I remember that during those days, the two of them would always pester me to tell them stories before going to bed.
The scene changed, and he came to a familiar study, where the empress and Miao Luantong were, and even Li Maozhen and Nian Ling were there.
Li Zhaozhao couldn't wait to take his arm and lead him to the middle. Countless laughter lingered in his ears. Feeling the gentle touch, he gradually became intoxicated by it.
However, just as these wonderful memories came flooding back, he was immersed in the sweetness.
The scene changed again, and he was still in Prince Qi's mansion, but it no longer had the warmth of the past, and was now a sea of blood and corpses.
The empress was no longer breathing, she lay quietly in his arms with a smile, surrounded by corpses, each more familiar than the last, Yang Shuzi, Miao Luantong...
Opposite him were Li Xingyun with lifeless eyes and Yuan Tiangang who was looking at him teasingly. He suddenly felt an indescribable fear.
"No!"
Anton Jun suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his dream. His heart was beating like a drum, his breathing was rapid and heavy, and sweat had soaked his inner clothes.
Turning my head slightly, I saw a familiar face lying on the edge of the bed. Even though he had fallen asleep, the anxiety and worry on that little face could still be seen.
"Wife?"
He whispered softly, gently holding Li Zhaozhao's hand, "It's good that it's still here. It's good that it's real."
But his small action woke up Li Zhaozhao.
After seeing Anton-jun wake up, in just a moment, her eyes were like a layer of moist filter, hiding the crystal that could fall at any time, which was very adorable.
"Do you know that you have been in a coma for half a month and haven't woken up yet? Ganoderma lucidum and other medicines are useless.
Li Xingyun and Master both said that you were just overworked, but how could someone be overworked and still not get better after being in a coma for half a month?"
Her voice sounded aggrieved, and if you listened carefully you could hear that she was blaming him for his recklessness.
Although Anton was shocked that he had been unconscious for so long, he did not say anything. Perhaps he had really pushed himself too hard this time.
"Wife, I'm fine. I just need to rest for a while. Look, I'm fine now, aren't I?"
He really couldn't bear to see the empress feeling sad for him, so he slowly sat up from the bed and hugged her in his arms.
But she is not someone who can be fooled so easily. After all, this is not the first time. How could she be dismissed with just a simple “I’m fine”?
"You're at it again~"
The empress punched his chest again and again, but considering that he had just woken up and was weak, she did not dare to use much force.
I can only touch him lightly, which makes me look a little bit like a spoiled child.
"Don't ever do this again, okay?"
The empress pleaded in a low voice, fearing that Anton-jun would refuse, so she hugged him tightly with both hands.
"Really not anymore."
Gently stroking the empress's back, Anton Jun answered without any hesitation.
After hearing Anton Jun's affirmative answer, Li Zhaozhao did not feel relieved. Instead, he hugged him even tighter: "But you always say this, just trying to fool me."
"So what does my good wife want me to do?"
Anton Jun grinned, his eyes were full of tenderness, and although his tone was weak, it made the empress stunned for a moment, then she lowered her head and buried it in his arms.
"Then I'll go with you."
"I know your heart. Don't speak in anger like that." Anton Jun still stroked her gently, but his tone suddenly became serious.
Unexpectedly, Li Zhaozhao's attitude was even tougher than his: "Since you know my heart, you know I'm not angry!
Before you came here, I was the empress and the King of Qi, and I had controlled Qi for more than ten years. You shouldn't treat me like a spoiled woman."
This time it was Anton's turn to be stunned. He laughed dumbly. His ridiculous bad habits really couldn't be changed. He responded heavily:
"it is good!"
After leaning against each other for a while, Anton asked again:
"Wife, just now you said Xingyun came here, so where is he now? Also, tell me what happened in the Central Plains in the past ten days."
Next he learned from Li Zhaozhao that, first, Li Cunxu had reached Bianzhou, and Daliang could be said to have been completely destroyed.
The former Liang State was in chaos, with each state and region being divided up among the various feudal lords.
As the second winner after Jin, Qi State seized ten states from Luoyang in the east to Jinzhou in the north. In addition to the 100,000 Liang troops it subdued, it could be said that it reaped a great harvest.
After all, in the battle of Fengxiang some time ago, among the 200,000 combined troops defending the city, 50,000 were Shu troops and 100,000 were Tubo troops.
Only 50,000 of their own Qi troops were dispatched, and together with the troops that attacked the rear army of the Liang army, there were only 100,000 troops.
Thanks to the perfect implementation of their strategy, their own casualties were not many. With the addition of the Liang army, the military strength of Qi State increased instead of decreased.
Then, during his coma, the news that the corpse ancestor of the Xuanming Sect had defected to the State of Qi and his identity had been exposed had spread throughout the Central Plains. As for whether it was Shi Yao or Zhong Xiaokui who spread the news, it is unknown.
But this just happened to be in line with his plan. They had not intended to hide these things when they negotiated with the princes this time.
Therefore, Jin State and other small princes will know about it sooner or later, and they can use this opportunity to intimidate those villains.
But there is also a disadvantage, that is, his identity as the eldest brother of Jianlu has been tied to Chu Yan, the fake Li Cunli and the Qi State.
I’m afraid it will be impossible to use these aliases to do things in the future.
The last one is Li Xingyun. This time he came to Qi mainly to visit Ji Ruxue in Fengming Town. However, he learned halfway that Zhu Youzhen would attack Qi on this day, and he also saw An Dongjun’s sword, so he came.
However, when he arrived here, Anton Jun was still fighting on the battlefield. When they met again, Anton Jun had already fainted.
After arriving here, I helped Anton Jun check his injuries and found that he was not serious. Then I left and went to do my own thing.
After he left, Anton Jun was unconscious for a few days. The empress was so anxious that she called Yang Shuzi and Nian Ling again.
But everyone came to the same conclusion: she was just too tired, so she didn't need to worry.
But she couldn't feel at ease just by talking about it, so she stayed here day and night.
After hearing this, Anton-jun felt sorry for her and fell into deep thought. Now that Li Maozhen and the other holy ladies were out in the field consolidating their new territories, he definitely didn't have to worry about it anymore.
Since everything went well, he would start dealing with Zhang Xuanling's affairs next.
The news had already been spread, but because I was unconscious, the matter has been delayed for a long time.
However, he didn't know that the empress had not told him one thing. Yuan Tiangang came here a few days ago, but at that time, he left because he took Li Xingyun here.
……
At the same time, Zhang Zifan, Lu Linxuan and Li Cunyong went to Xuanwu Mountain and did not find any trace of Huijue, so they rushed to Yuzhou to meet Li Xingyun.
But when they arrived, they found that there was a girl in purple beside Li Xingyun whom they had never seen before.
......
Li Siyuan did not find Zhang Xuanling in Xuanwu Mountain, but his younger brother Li Sizhao found him.
Later, when he was complaining to Li Sizhao that he had no one to use his power.
He also learned from Li Sizhao that they now had the help of Yelu Lagu in Mobei, but in exchange, they both had to help Yelu Lagu and help him fight for the Khan position.
Therefore, the two of them are now looking for the whereabouts of Zhang Xuanling or Xu Huan together.
However, even if they thought badly, they probably couldn't have imagined that Xu Huan and the people from the Tianshi Mansion had been brought to Fengxiang by Anton Jun before the battle of Qiliang.
By the way, in order to make Xu Huan believe that Zhang Xuanling was in Fengxiang, An Dongjun originally wanted Zhang Xuanling to give Xu Huan a token that Xu Huan could recognize at a glance, but Zhang Xuanling said it was not necessary and only wrote a poem. After reading the letter, Xu Huan actually came.
Anton said frankly that he still remembered a poem after more than ten years, and they really were a couple with a common heart.
