After rebirth, I became the stupid son of the Hou family

Li Chenglong looked at Jiang Chen in front of him and was filled with emotions.

He had led troops in wars for decades, but he never expected that at this age, he would experience such a huge disaster in his life.

He spent his entire life as a soldier protecting his family and country, but the irony is that in the end, he no longer had a country for him to stand on, let alone a home for him to settle down.

At this time, he was living in a foreign country, and his heart was full of sadness and anger, as well as the helplessness and sadness of a hero in his twilight years.

He said to Jiang Chen:

"My child, there is nothing better than a peaceful life in this world. The weather is not at the right time, good fortune is blocked, blessings and fortunes are given, fate has already been arranged, and the cycle of heaven and earth begins again and again. Grandpa is in this situation today, and all his relatives have died because of me. I I'm sorry for my ancestors, and I'm sorry for my children and grandchildren. This kind of disaster should have been borne by me alone, but it harmed my family, leaving me alone to suffer in this world. I consider myself to be completely loyal to the imperial court. , I tried my best to protect the people and protect them from the suffering of the war. I never thought that in the end, God would punish me like this, making me have no peace for the rest of my life. I can learn from the world in this life, and I have done nothing wrong, but I was punished by that treacherous little villain. It hurts people to such an extent.”

Jiang Chen held his cold and trembling hands tightly, and was instantly moved by his sad mood. He also felt the same.

Life is really unpredictable, and you never know what will happen tomorrow.He said to Li Chenglong:

"Grandpa, what are your plans in the future? Do you want to go back to Xuanwu Dynasty with me?"

The general shook his head at him and said:

"My child, in this situation, it is not the time for me to go back. If I want to go back, I also need to get rid of those traitors who have brought disaster to the country and the people, and to restore a peaceful world to the Wu Dynasty. Only then can I have the face to meet those in the Li family who lost their lives because of me. Relatives."

Jiang Chen said to his grandfather and uncle:

"Yes, there will be a day. Heaven does not hide the traitors. Those traitors who harmed you will get their retribution sooner or later. I will go back and tell my mother the good news. She needs to know that her grandpa and uncle are still alive. It will also be a comfort to her. It can somewhat ease her sad mood."

Li Chenglong said to Jiang Chen:

"When you go back, tell your mother to keep everything in perspective and don't worry about winning or losing. It's important to let her protect her body. By the way, Chen'er, do you have any plans for the future? You are planning to follow your father to join the army in northern Xinjiang. , or have other plans."

Jiang Chen said to his grandfather:

"Grandpa, I have no idea of ​​joining the army at the moment. My title of heir apparent has been removed by the dowager. Therefore, I plan to take the imperial examination to seek fame."

Li Chenglong nodded to him frequently and said:

"Chen'er has ambitions. Whatever you want to do, just pursue it boldly. Grandpa is waiting for your good news."

Li Shen saw that Jiang Chen's every move and conversation was not at all what people said.Not only did he curiously ask him:

"Chen'er, uncle thinks everything is normal with you. Didn't you have a brain problem before? When did you get better again?"

Jiang Chen said to Li Shen:

"Uncle, you are right. I had a problem with my brain before. But as I grew up, I gradually got better and better. Can't you see that I have a problem now?"

Li Shen shook his head and said:

"Now not only is it completely invisible that you were sick when you were a child, but even your conversation and behavior are better than ordinary people. Jiang Chen, I hope you go back, study hard on your homework, and strive to be on the list next year. Then. Avenging our Li family will give us more hope."

Jiang Chen's eyes were firm, he nodded to them and said:

"Uncle, don't worry, I know what to do, and I won't let you disappoint me."

Jiang Chen and Zhao Hu stayed here for a few more days and talked a lot with their grandfather and uncle, including the arrest of Zhang Zonglin from Xiliang and the current situation of the crown prince of the Xuanwu Dynasty.

His uncle urged him to go back early. He and Shopkeeper Cui were taking care of his grandfather here, so he didn't have to worry about anything.

Zhao Hu hadn't seen the two generals for a long time and insisted on staying to take care of the general.

Jiang Chen said goodbye to everyone and embarked on the road back to Xuanwu Dynasty alone.

A few days later, when he returned home, he told his mother how he found his grandfather and uncle in Xiliang.

After listening to this, Li Susu burst into tears. Mother Wang said from the side:

"Finally, we have news about the general. This is great. Madam, just cry happily. These are tears of joy. Even I couldn't help but cry after hearing the news."

Ah Fu, who was beside him, had not been with the young master for the past month.Seeing that he had brought such good news upon his return, he praised him again and again;

"Our young master is so strong. Finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. I thought you didn't have any idea where to find someone. You actually found him. Fortunately, both the general and the young general are fine. Madam Xing It’s time to let go of your worries, so that the young master can concentrate on preparing for the scientific examination from now on.”

While everyone was happy to find the general, the prince also hurried over after getting the news of his return.

As soon as the prince entered the door, he congratulated Jiang Chen:

"Jiang Chen, it's not easy. This trip to Xiliang is really not in vain. I was able to find the general and the young general. Even I feel very excited. Tell me about your thrilling experience along the way and how full it is. The harvest makes me happy too.”

After Jiang Chen gave the prince a gift, he said to the prince with emotion:

"The prince has eyes and ears in Xiliang. No wonder you knew the news as soon as I returned to the capital. It seems that Miss Xianyun is really efficient in doing things. And during the whole process of finding the general, Miss Xianyun was present throughout. She should have described it to you in detail, why should I explain it to you?"

The prince smiled and said to him:

"It is a great thing to be able to find the general. I still want to feel the joy of reunion from your description. In addition, so many unexpected things happened in Xiliang. That prince of Xiliang, is How was he killed by Zhang Zonglin? And how was Zhang Zonglin persuaded by you to only go to court? I really want to hear all these things from your mouth. Please hurry up. Let me tell you."

Jiang Chen said to the prince:

"Even if His Royal Highness doesn't come, I will go to see you. Fortunately, everything went smoothly. The general's whereabouts are finally known."

Jiang Chen told him again what happened in Xiliang during this period.

The prince said:

"Originally, Zhang Zonglin was missing at the border, and he took advantage of the troubled times in Xiliang to take back the cities we lost. But Hu Gao and Liu Gu would never do this, so they said that treacherous ministers harmed the country. We When can the general be redressed so that he and his son can be welcomed home as soon as possible?"

Jiang Chen said to the prince:

"If you want the general to return to the court, unless the prince becomes the emperor, you will never have this opportunity."
