Fortunately, in order to treat his legs, Shen Yijia had fed him a lot of spiritual liquid. His physique had also improved a lot. Otherwise, if his injuries were on someone else, the military doctor would have shaken his head and sighed.

When he woke up again, it was already dawn the next day.

When he opened his eyes and met Xuanyuan Ce’s murderous eyes, he was stunned. “Your Highness?”

Xuanyuan Ce snorted. “You’re finally awake.”

Song Jingchen propped himself up and sat up. He realized that this wasn’t his room. He looked around but didn’t see Shen Yijia.

“Stop looking. I let that girl go back to her room to rest,” Xuanyuan Ce said angrily.

Shen Yijia’s emotions fluctuated easily because she was pregnant. First, she went into battle to kill the enemy, and then she cried because of Xiao Qirui. When she saw that Song Jingchen had fainted, she was so anxious that she almost had a miscarriage.

After Xuanyuan Ce found out that she was pregnant, he was so angry that he almost slashed at Song Jingchen with a knife.

He let his pregnant wife go to the battlefield. Was this person careless or did he not care about his daughter at all?

However, Shen Yijia still refused to leave Song Jingchen’s side. Xuanyuan Ce had no choice but to knock her out.

Although he didn’t say it, Song Jingchen could more or less guess it. He cupped his hands and said, “Thank you, Your Highness.”

His body was covered in wounds. When he raised his hand, it inevitably pulled at his wounds, causing him to frown in pain.

Xuanyuan Cel s eyes hurt. This grown man was so good -looking even when he frowned. No wonder he could charm his daughter.

“It’s good that you’re fine. Don’t let that girl worry about you again.” He was clearly concerned, but he had to put on a disdainful expression.

This could probably only be explained by the fact that his son-in-law was born to be at odds with him.

Song Jingchen shook his head to indicate that he was fine. “It’s all thanks to His

Highness’s timely arrival that Nanling was able to escape. I…”

“Alright, alright.” Xuanyuan Ce waved his hand impatiently. “I’m doing this for my daughter, not you. Don’t flatter yourself.”

Song Jingchen was speechless.

“But where did Ah Luo go? Why don’t I see her?” Xuanyuan Ce asked.

Not many people in Nanling Pass knew Ji Luo. Among the people who knew, Song Jingchen was injured and unconscious. He didn’t dare to ask Shen Yijia since she was in a bad mood.

As for You Yi and Thirty Thousand, the two of them were also seriously injured. He couldn’t find them even if he wanted to ask, so he could only ask Song Jingchen, who was the first to wake up.

“Mother went to Fengzhou.” Song Jingchen told her about them going their separate ways in Yanyang. In the end, he said, “Looking at the time, she should be able to reach Nanling Pass in about ten days.”

They could arrive early because they directly passed through the Three Gorges and walked in a straight line. Not only did Ji Luo have to take a detour from Fengzhou, but she also had to travel with the army, so it would naturally take longer.

Hearing that there was an army traveling with her, Xuanyuan Ce finally relaxed. However, when he thought about how his wife and daughter were being ordered around by Song Jingchen, he felt a little upset.

Afraid that he wouldn’t be able to help but strangle Song Jingchen to death if he continued to stay, he glared at him and left without a word.

The corners of Song Jingchen’s mouth twitched helplessly. He endured the pain and got out of bed.

Liu Jinbao, who had volunteered to take care of Song Jingchen, saw him come out and said worriedly, “General, why are you out? Your injuries…”

“I’m fine.” Song Jingchen waved his hand. Seeing that this was still the courtyard he used to live in, he returned to his room.

In the inner room, Shen Yijia lay on the bed with a pale face. She frowned, as if she was not at ease even when she was asleep.

Song Jingchen blamed himself. He reached out and stroked her brow. He coaxed her softly, “I’m here. It’s fine.”

“Hubby, don’t be afraid…” Shen Yijia muttered and did not wake up.

Although she was not injured, breaking through the 400,000 -strong army was too exhausting for her pregnant body.

Song Jingchen’s eyes turned red. He carefully tucked her in and leaned down to kiss the top of her head. “Yes, Jiajia is so powerful. I’m not afraid.”

Shen Yijia muttered something again. Her voice was so soft that Song Jingchen couldn’t hear her clearly, but her brows finally relaxed.

When Song Jingchen came out of the room, not only was Liu Jinbao standing outside the door, but Song Jinghuan was also there.

“Big Brother.”

“General.”

The two of them called out in unison.

Song Jingchen nodded. “Brother Xiao… where is he?”

Song Jinghuan pursed his lips and said, “In the front courtyard.”

“Stay here and guard your sister-in-law. If she wakes up, come and look for me immediately.” Song Jingchen turned around and went to the front courtyard.

Liu Jinbao followed closely behind.

“Duke.” As soon as he arrived at the front courtyard, he met Xiao Li, who had returned from outside. He was still wearing the bloody armor from yesterday. The blood on his face had been washed clean, but his eyes were all bruised. Actually, not only did he not sleep the entire night, but the soldiers in the military camp were also so busy that they did not sleep at all.

Song Jingchen looked at the bag in his arms.

“This is what my young master left in the military camp. I went to pack it up just now,” Xiao Li explained.

Although Xiao Qirui often lived in the military camp, he did not have much luggage. He only had two sets of clothes and a few military books.

Song Jingchen nodded. “I’m here to see Brother Xiao.”

Xiao Liqiang forced a smile. “I thank you on behalf of my young master.”

As he spoke, he led the way. Before pushing open the door, he paused and said worriedly, “I got someone to place a lot of ice inside. The Duke’s health…” “It’s fine.” Song Jingchen shook his head.

The door was pushed open, and a bone-piercing chill assaulted their faces. Xiao Li and Liu Jinbao, who was following behind, looked at Song Jingchen worriedly. He had already walked in first.

Because they had to put ice in it, the bedding on the bed had been removed. Xiao Qirui was wearing armor and lying on the cold ice.

Song Jingchen’s throat moved. He lifted his robe and knelt down.

I’m sorry..
