Sick Man Turns Out to be a General

0When he opened his eyes, he saw little friend Xun Er lowering his head as he approached his face, reaching his hands out to pinch his nose while the twins lay on his chest. As he slept soundly, Mu Chen suddenly realized something, no wonder he felt as if there was a huge boulder pressed down on his chest, so it was these little fellows.    

    

Seeing him open his eyes, Xun Er happily let go of his hand, and started rubbing his neck, "Father, you're finally awake, I've already counted twice on my ten fingers, if you still don't wake up, I won't bother with you anymore."    

    

Xun Er turned around, and as he angrily spoke, he gave Mu Chen a few kisses on the face before sitting up and clapping his hands in a dance. Mu Chen, on the other hand, was looking at the twins who were sprawled on his body.    

    

He immediately became afraid to move and reached out to hug the child, but the child was very cunning. Before his hand could even touch the child, he was hit by a small, fat hand.    

    

Mu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Just when he was worrying about what to do, Shen Jingli brought in a basin of water.    

    

Looking at him being "bullied", Hen Jingli started to laugh. She purposefully ignored his words, allowing the few kids to flip over his body, showing him a martial arts scene.    

    

"Hurry and pick them up, I still need to report to the palace later." Mu Chen reached out and hugged Xun Er, preventing him from teasing his two younger brothers. Xun Er twisted his body and kicked his feet, but still laughed happily.    

    

Probably hearing her brother's laughter, the twins laughed, too, reserved and cheerful, waving their arms and legs like small rowing boats.    

    

Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Jingli took the two children down from Mu Chen's body and had them lie down on the bed to play with Xun Er. Xun Er had the appearance of a big brother, even if his two little brothers pulled on his hair and pulled on his ears, they would not scream out of pain.    

    

After Shen Jingli helped Mu Chen wash up, he let Xun Er come down to wash up. After that, Mu Chen held onto Xun Er as they each carried a child out the door.    

    

"Did you say in the letter that Mu Jing was injured? Ningyi's production was dangerous, and his body was injured, so I did not dare to tell him. " Yang Ningyi had always been worried about Mu Jing. Upon knowing that Mu Chen had returned, she would probably come to ask about Mu Jing's matters.    

    

When he thought about Yang Ningyi's situation during this period of time, if something were to happen to him, he was afraid that Yang Ningyi wouldn't be able to think straight.    

    

"Yes, a little, but it's all right now." Not wanting to make Shen Jingli worry, Mu Chen explained it in a concise manner. In any case, Mu Jing's injuries were already healed, and no matter how dangerous the process was, it was all in the past. There was no need to bring it up again, it was extremely worrying.    

    

"Really?" Shen Jingli was a little doubtful, but he did not pursue the matter any further. In his heart, he was thinking the same as Mu Chen, no matter how dangerous the past was, it was still a thing of the past. There was no need to bring it up again and again, so he worried the people he cared about.    

    

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Mu Chen said.    

    

When they reached the parlour, they handed the twins to the nurse and sat down with the two children to eat breakfast.    

    

After finishing breakfast, Mu Chen went into the palace to report back. Just as he left, Yang Ningyi brought her child with him.    

    

Seeing that he had come over, Shen Jingli was not surprised, he had long expected that if news of him returning to the residence were to spread, Yang Ningyi would definitely come to him to look for news of him.    

    

Before Yang Ningyi could say anything, she invited him to the front hall of the Sunset Courtyard and had the servants serve tea before she hugged Yang Ningyi's child. Although it was hard to bear the baby, it was raised well the day after tomorrow.    

    

"Did you get the baby's name?" Shen Jingli played with the drum, and when the little baby heard the sound, she giggled and reached out to grab the drum. Shen Jingli teased him to bring it to his side, but when he was about to grab ahold of it, he raised his hand, making it impossible for him to grab it.    

    

Seeing that his son was having fun, Yang Ningyi took out a handkerchief and wiped the saliva off the corner of his mouth, "He's called Kang Kang, I hope that he will be healthy again in the future."    

    

When the child was first born, it was like a cat cub, a small ball, but he didn't even dare to hug it. Later on, he found a healthy and milkmaid to take care of it, and a good cook to help take care of it. After a period of recuperation, the child's health improved a lot, and he also grew a lot stronger.    

    

As parents, they all hoped for their children's health and happiness. Shen Jingli looked at Kang Kang, who started to drool again, and once again shook his drum in front of him. Kang Kang was still full of energy, but when he saw something interesting, he once again reached out to grab it.    

    

Yang Ningyi had long noticed his appearance and knew what he wanted to ask and was worried about, but he did not say anything. In any case, when he opened her mouth to ask, would answer and if he wanted to ask, Shen Jingli would not take the initiative to say it.    

    

Xun Er was worried that he did not know what to do and that he would be able to hurt Kang Kang, so he let go up to the Arhat Bed and wrapped the corners of it with a quilt, and even brought the twins over to play. The twins had already learned how to crawl, and An An Dong immediately crawled over to Xun Er's side as soon as she put him down, treating Xun Er like a toy and started crawling around his body.    

    

Although the ball was not as easily moved as he was, it still liked Xun Er a lot. Seeing An An An lying on Xun Er's body, he also quickly crawled over and hugged Xun Er's little fat leg. Huaixin sat at his side and played with them with a toy.    

    

Kang Kang was the youngest and couldn't climb yet. Seeing them playing together, he didn't pay any attention to him and just started crying.    

    

Upon hearing his cry, Yang Ningyi immediately became anxious. She hurriedly hugged him, patted his back lightly and coaxed him in a soft voice.    

    

When the child stopped crying, she placed him on the bed and asked Xun Er and the others to play with him.    

    

"Sister-in-law, when will Moon Lake be back?" When he heard that Mu Chen had returned, he immediately ran over to find out more information. In this period of time, he had not been able to sleep well, and his heart was in turmoil.    

    

He told this matter to Ningtian. Ningtian comforted him, saying that his dreams were the opposite, that Mu Jing would definitely be fine, and even told him not to think too much, just take care of himself, and just wait for Mu Jing to return in good health. However, still couldn't control his worry.    

    

"I heard that he came back with the army." Shen Jingli replied, "He's fine, don't worry."    

    

"Really?" Yang Ningyi asked excitedly. He believed in Shen Jingli a lot, and upon hearing him say this, she sincerely heaved a sigh of relief.    

    

"Fourteen said, he won't lie." Although it wouldn't be a lie, it was still quite crafty.    

    

"Mm, then I'm relieved." After thinking for a while, Mu Jing would return. Yang Ningyi could not hold back his happiness and after that, started to recite, "Wait until Moon Lake returns, I will definitely talk about him. I can obviously stay in the capital well, but why must I go to the northwest …"    

    

After obtaining the information she wanted, Yang Ningyi stayed for a while before taking the child back.    

    

— —    

    

At night, Mu Chen finally returned. His clothes were covered with dust and grass, making it obvious that he was about to fight. It didn't look like he had just returned from the palace.    

    

Shen Jingli coaxed Xun Er to sleep, then ordered the servants to boil some water, he let Mu Chen bathe first, then went to the small kitchen to make food for him.    

    

"Where did you go? "How did this happen?"    

    

Mu Chen squinted his eyes and leaned on the side of the bath barrel, listening to Shen Jingli's voice which came from outside the screen, low and comfortable, like the spring breeze. His tensed nerves instantly relaxed, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised.    

    

"Nothing, it's not very important."    

    

His clothes were filthy and full of the marks of a fight. He had already gone through such a fierce battle, and he even said that it wasn't important. Then, what was important in his heart?    

    

Shen Jingli knew that he did not want to say it because he did not want to worry him. He did not pursue the matter further, but handed a clean handkerchief to him and hung a set of clean clothes on the screen.    

    

After changing his clothes, he noticed the dishes on the table and raised his eyebrows. "You made this?"    

    

Shen Jingli did not cook much ever since he had arrived at the capital. Firstly, he was lazy in the first place, cooking was a complicated task that only he had no choice but to do, he did not want to do it. Secondly, the chef that the house had invited was very outstanding, the food that he cooked was much more delicious than the ones he cooked.    

    

"Yeah." Shen Jingli smiled as he scooped out the soup for him, "Do you feel nostalgic?"    

    

Yes, very nostalgic. The food he made was the most delicious one he had ever eaten, so Mu Chen sat down and took the soup from Shen Jingli. Shen Jingli also picked up some vegetables and placed them into his bowl, "Eat more, you should be hungry."    

    

"Sit down and accompany me for a meal."    

    

Shen Jingli had dinner before, and he was not the least bit hungry. After eating a little bit, he focused on cooking for Mu Chen.    

    

"Did you go with the prince today?" Mu Chen was not willing to speak directly, so he could only scout around.    

0

    

"No." Mu Chen shook his head.    

    

After dinner, Shen Jingli suggested that they go out for a walk in the courtyard. Mu Chen found a cloak for him and put it on before following him to the garden.    

    

reached out and grabbed Mu Chen's hand, walking shoulder to shoulder with him. "When do you plan to go to the Northwest?"    

    

"Isn't going to the northwest a bit too much?" The life in the northwest was very difficult, and most families wouldn't be willing to go with them. It was precisely because the Southern Zhenyi didn't want to go with the army to the border, that was why she adopted a village nun with power as her concubine. It was only because that village nun was willing to accompany him at the border and endure hardships for ten years.    

    

"No, it's good to get used to it." He was not a lady of the capital. He had suffered before, so he was not worried that he would not be used to going to the northwest.
