Chapter 426 Zhou Sheng Ru Gu 37
Ling Xi was looking at the account book in the next room for about half an hour before Li Qilang came knocking on the door.
Ling Xi walked out and saw that both the father and daughter had red eyes, and they had obviously cried quite hard.
She smiled: "You two should put ice on your eyes, otherwise when Eleven returns home, others will think I bullied her."
Shi Yi lowered her head and smiled shyly.
Li Qilang turned to Shi Yi and said gently, "Shi Yi, go apply some pressure on your eyes first. Your sister and I still have a few words to say."
Shi Yi looked at her father and then at her sister. Although she didn't know what they were going to talk about, she understood that there were some things she shouldn't know.
She nodded and went back to her room.
Ling Xi looked at Li Qilang and said, "Come in."
The two walked into the room one after the other. Li Qilang immediately knelt down and said gratefully, "Thank you, young lady, for allowing me to reunite with Shi Yi."
Ling Xi sat down and looked at Li Qilang with a serious look.
"Get up. You have taken good care of Qi Jinchao over the years. This is just a small matter and it is not worth mentioning."
Li Qilang stood up. Although he knew that he had done his job well and made Ling Xi very satisfied, she was willing to give him this reward.
But in Li Qilang's heart, he was still extremely grateful to Ling Xi.
When he was seriously ill and dying and had nowhere else to go, it was Ling Xi who saved him and was willing to take him in, which prevented him from dying in the wilderness.
He will remember this kindness clearly.
That's why, even though he knew Ling Xi's identity, he still worked for her sincerely.
He also believed that what Ling Xi once said about unifying the world would become a reality in her hands.
After Ling Xi asked Li Qilang to sit down, he said:
"You will stay in Xizhou from now on and be responsible for Qi Jinchao's affairs in Beichen. I will let someone else take over Nanxiao's affairs. This will also allow you to meet Shi Yi frequently. However, you must act in a covert manner and not let others discover your identity. Also, any news about Beichen must be reported to me by three persons at all times."
Li Qilang was naturally happy when he heard this.
He nodded slightly: "Yes. I obey your command."
After finishing his words, Ling Xi took Shi Yi back through the secret passage.
Returning to the private room in the front, Ling Xi had some dishes served.
"Eleven, sit down."
Ling Xi looked at Shi Yi, and Shi Yi sat down.
Ling Xi did not explain to Shi Yi what she and her father were doing. Since it concerned Li Qilang, Shi Yi would definitely keep her mouth shut and not tell anyone about it.
Ling Xi was very relieved about this.
After a while, the waiter brought the dishes. Ling Xi picked up a piece of steamed fish for Shi Yi and said softly, "Your father will stay in Xizhou in the future. If you miss him, come to Qi Jinchao to see him. Don't let others find out."
Shi Yi's eyes sparkled: "Thank you, sister."
When I returned to the palace, I saw Zhou Shengchen and Xie Chong talking about something as soon as I opened the golden gate.
When they saw them, the two stopped talking.
Zhou Shengchen came over with a smile on his face: "Where did you go? Did you ask someone to tell me that you took Eleven out?"
Ling Xi held Shi Yi's hand, and with her other hand she picked up the small gadgets she had bought and showed them to Zhou Shengchen:
"Well, Eleven must be bored, so I'm taking her to the city to have a look around, buy some fun things, eat some delicious food. Besides, letting Eleven go out and communicate with others will also be good for her."
"Someone will deliver the clothes I bought for Eleven at Qi Jinzhao in a while. When the time comes, have them deliver them directly to Eleven's yard. It would be nice for a little girl to wear more beautiful clothes."
Zhou Shengchen chuckled. Ling Xi's attitude reminded him of when she first came to the palace.
At that time, he did the same and bought her a lot of things.
As a result, now that I have grown into a big girl, I also treat others in this way.
Zhou Shengchen looked at Shi Yi again and asked, "Are you happy outside today?"
Shi Yi knelt down and bowed to Zhou Shengchen, and replied: "Thank you for your concern, Master. I am very happy. Xizhou is very lively." Zhou Shengchen nodded: "As long as you are happy."
In the following days, Ling Xi devoted himself to teaching Shi Yi.
It was not until a few months later that war broke out again in Northern Chen and Wang's army was about to go out to fight again.
The night before leaving, Ling Xi came to Shi Yi's room.
"Sister." Shi Yi was very happy to see Ling Xi.
Ling Xi sat on the bed, holding Shi Yi's hand, and said to her: "Today I came to tell you that I will go with the army tomorrow. This time, I'm afraid it will take quite a while. From now on, you will be the only one in this palace. You must pay more attention to your safety."
Shi Yi nodded obediently: "I know, sister."
Ling Xi took out a key and a token and handed them to Shi Yi.
"Here is the key to the palace library, and also Qi Jinchao's token. I give them all to you. If you want to go to Qi Jinchao to see your father, give this token to the person there, and he will lead you up."
Shi Yi took the key and token, looked at Ling Xi, and promised solemnly:
"I'll take good care of it, sister."
Ling Xi only came to instruct on these matters this time. There was no one in the palace before, but now that he has a little sister, he has to worry more.
On the second day, Zhou Shengchen and Ling Xi left the palace and went to the military camp.
When leaving, Ling Xi glanced sideways and saw Shi Yi standing upstairs, watching them walk away.
Seeing this, Ling Xi felt a warm feeling in his heart.
Ling Xi has gotten used to following Wang Jun into battle again.
However, this battle lasted for quite a long time.
Wang Jun traveled to many places, and basically after fighting in one place, he would go to another.
Before we knew it, two years had passed quietly in the battle.
Fortunately, Wang Jun wins every time.
And Ling Xi will try his best to save their lives.
During this battle, Zhou Shengchen rescued a blind boy named Xie Chen.
Military advisor Xie Chong adopted him as his adopted son.
On that day, Zhou Shengchen, Xie Chong, Hong Xiaoyu, Fengqiao, Zhou Tianxing and others were not in Wang's army.
Among Wang’s troops, only Xie Yun is still here.
Ling Xi is changing the medicine on Xie Chen's eyes.
Xie Chen’s blindness is difficult to cure, so Ling Xi has to put in more effort.
These days, she has been keeping her eyes on Xie Chen.
Listening to the cheers coming from Xie Yun's soldiers training outside, Ling Xi couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xie Chen asked curiously: "Sister Ling Xi, why are you laughing?"
Ling Xi smiled and said, "I am laughing at Xie Yun. He is the most arrogant and narcissistic among all the Wang army. Guess why there is such a loud cheering outside?"
Xie Chen's eyes were confused and lifeless. He thought for a while and guessed, "Is it General Xie Yun who is demonstrating to the soldiers?"
Ling Xi burst out laughing and complained bluntly: "He is not demonstrating at all, he is just showing off like a peacock spreading its tail, and he likes those young soldiers cheering loudly."
Upon hearing Ling Xi's description, Xie Chen couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled.
He could almost imagine what Xie Yun looked like.
