Except for Yaya, the remaining five children were also brought into the military camp by Chu Yi. The girls could be trained to work in the kitchen, and the boys could be trained to be soldiers.

Although the war in the north has stopped, we cannot do without strong soldiers. Without strong soldiers, there will be no strong country, and without a strong country, there will be no good life for the people. The Northern Zhou Dynasty will still not surrender.

Even in the future, enemy countries will still covet and attempt to annex Daqi.

Therefore, Chu Yi never dared to slack off when it came to strengthening the army. This was his idea, as well as the idea of ​​Chu Heyi and Xie Lin.

Several children moved into the military camp. Although they still needed to do things, after half a month, their complexions became much rosier and they even grew taller.

Chu Bian and Qiao Wanwan were both very happy.

And their wedding had already been decided and would be held as quickly as possible.

In Chu Ni's opinion, as long as the bride is Qiao Wanwan, it doesn't matter when the wedding date is. They are engaged anyway. In his mind, even if he hasn't seen Qiao Wanwan for many years, she is still his wife-to-be.

As for Qiao Wanwan, she had already reconciled with herself a long time ago. After the reconciliation, she still had Chu Ni in her heart. Since God allowed them to reunite and Chu Ni still had her in his heart, she would no longer refuse to become his wife.

When the general got married, all the soldiers came to drink and even the people of the whole city appointed representatives to send their blessings. It was very lively.

On the wedding night, Chu Ni drank a lot. He suddenly thought of something that scared him, so he asked Qiao Wanwan: "If I don't go to Huanglin Village on the day of your wedding with Zhao Lin, what will Wanwan do?"

Qiao Wanwan did not answer but asked, "If I have to consummate my marriage with Zhao Lin for Yaya's sake, will the general despise me for not being a virgin after he finds me?"

Chu Yi thought about it seriously, and then answered solemnly: "I won't despise you. I can only admire your noble character of selflessness."

After this answer came out, Chu Yi was no longer afraid.

What he was afraid of was that Qiao Wanwan would take it as an insult, causing her to collapse completely; but if Qiao Wanwan did not take it as an insult, then it would actually be the same as him saving someone on the battlefield and losing a leg or an arm.

It may hurt, but I won’t think it’s not worth it.

As they did not need to offer tea to their parents-in-law the next day, the couple tossed and turned for half the night before falling into a deep sleep, and woke up late the next day.

After washing and changing clothes, Chu Ni put a hairpin on Qiao Wanwan, and the couple went into the study together to write letters to their relatives in Shengjing City to tell them about their happiness.

"Oh, I still owe the doctor twenty taels of silver. I have to pay it back later." Qiao Wanwan remembered that it cost a lot of money to treat the two children's broken legs, but she had forgotten about it recently because of her busyness.

Fortunately, the doctor was kind-hearted and willing to give her credit. She asked Chu Yi: "Do you have any money? Lend me twenty taels first."

Chu Yu smiled and asked Ding Sheng to bring a small box full of banknotes and a lot of jewelry. "These are all Madam's. Madam, you can use them as you like."

Qiao Wanwan held the small box and smiled, "My dear husband, please don't regret it. I will spend all these banknotes."

She wanted to build a university hall and a Salesian church in the north to provide a home for children who had lost their parents and to provide opportunities for poor children who wanted to read and learn to read.

Qiao Wanwan described her thoughts vividly, and Chu Yi circled her, "Madam, what you think is exactly what I think. The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess will definitely be happy to see it come true. I will write a letter later to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to send more silver."

Qiao Wanwan took his hand and smiled.

Looking at Qiao Wanwan in the mirror, Chu Yi's mind suddenly flashed the image of the girl who chose to jump off the city wall out of despair in the past - although he did not see it with his own eyes at that time, this fantasy has always existed in his mind. It is his nightmare, and he feels sorry for her day and night.

But now, Qiao Wanwan has completely changed. The Qiao Wanwan who left her fate to others and let others control her joy, anger, sorrow and happiness is completely gone.

It turns out that some roads must be taken, such as the road that Qiao Wanwan has walked from Shengjing City to the northern border over the years, which is the necessary path in her life.

The news that Chu Yi escaped the assassination attempt, was not seriously injured, and was successfully rescued had already been sent to Shengjing City, but it was still halfway and had not yet arrived.

However, the news that Chu Yi had been assassinated, his whereabouts were unknown, and even his body had not been found, had spread throughout Shengjing City.

The queen, who was in Princess Pingyang's mansion, also learned the news first. She smiled, but her smile was calm.

Instead, she stood up from the couch and sighed, "Master Lingxu said before that the Crown Princess and Princess Cheng are twins, and it turned out to be true. The Crown Princess has only been back in the palace for a short time, and her eldest brother, the general, has already gotten into trouble. I wonder who will be the next one to get into trouble?"

No one dared to answer.

The Queen didn't mind. She continued, "Speaking of which, the general shouldn't have gotten into trouble. The North is peaceful now, but he got into trouble. If there wasn't an evil spirit living in the Crown Princess' body, affecting the fate of Daqi and her loved ones, how could the general have suffered such a disaster?"

Although no one responded, the news spread throughout the princess's mansion and almost everyone was talking about it.

The queen was strolling in the princess's mansion, and when she heard these discussions, the smile on her face widened.

It is not enough for Chu Yi to get into trouble. Someone else must also get into trouble. Only then can Chu Heyi be trapped in the rumors of the twin flowers again and never get up. Then it will be much easier to kill Chu Heyi.

Once Chu Heyi dies, the prince will suffer a severe blow. With his weak body, he will not be able to bear it and will definitely collapse.

The Duke Zhenguo Mansion will be reduced to an empty shell and will no longer be able to serve as a strong backing for the Crown Prince. How can the Crown Prince remain firmly on the throne?

But how can we take both approaches at the same time and prove that Chu Heyi will affect the national destiny of Daqi and the fortunes of our relatives?

At first, the Queen focused her attention on the fetus in Princess Pingyang's belly. After all, the child had not been born yet and was just a piece of flesh in the mother's body. It was not growing on the Queen's body, so the Queen had no feelings for it.

Besides, what if she loses this baby? The princess can still have children in the future if she wants!

But as soon as she arrived at the princess's mansion, Xie Lin sent two maids who were skilled in martial arts to take care of Princess Pingyang, so that she could not harm the fetus in the princess's womb. The princess did not get into trouble at the same time as the first-rank general of the court.

If something happened to these two people of prominent status at the same time... Yes, Princess Pingyang and General Chu must be in trouble at the same time.

The queen thought of Nanny An, who had not been listening to her much recently and was unwilling to run errands for her, but because of this she gained the trust of the two maids.

So, the Queen asked Li Chaoyun to make ginseng soup, secretly put poison in the soup, and then asked Li Chaoyun to invite the maids to come and give the ginseng soup to the two maids sent by Xie Lin to drink.

The Queen did not participate in the entire process. Presumably, the two maids would not be on guard against Nanny An as they were against her.

"Empress, the two maids have already drunk the ginseng soup prepared by me. Now they are suffering from abdominal pain and diarrhea. I'm afraid they will have to stay in the toilet for a long time." Li Chaoyun came to report.

The Queen finally had the opportunity to have dinner alone with Princess Pingyang. After the servants checked the food the princess ate and confirmed that it was non-toxic, the mother and daughter began to eat.

When the princess wanted to drink the soup, the queen brought it to her and blew it cool for her. In the process, she secretly put the poison hidden in her fingernail into the soup, stirred it evenly, and then gave it to the princess.

This medicine will only cause the princess to have a miscarriage and will not cause any harm to the queen's body.
