"Ahem, ahem!"

On the hospital bed, Chen Xu looked at the roof with slightly blank eyes and was silent for a long time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Crunch!"

The door opened, and Chen Ai walked in.

He smiled and said, "Father, the military doctor told me that your body is fine, and you just need to rest well to recover." ”

Turning his head and looking at his son's handsome and upright body, Chen Xu smiled happily.

"In the blink of an eye, even Ah Ai has grown up, but you are still the same as before, and you can't lie at all."

Knowing the son is more than the father.

Chen Xu knew a lot about Chen Ai's character, and he could see at a glance that Chen Ai's words were insincere.

When Chen Ai heard this, he couldn't help but redden.

He threw himself on Chen Xu and cried: "Father, you will be fine, you will definitely be fine." ”

Chen Xu stretched out his right hand and gently stroked Chen Ai's head, a doting look flashed in his eyes.

Many times, parents spoil their young children the most, and Chen Xu is naturally no exception.

"Hey."

After a long time, Chen Xu sighed deeply.

"Many people say that I am a wolf and ambitious, and those who are loyal to the Han family all criticize me, saying that my hands are stained with the blood of loyal ministers."

"However, I have fought in all directions all my life, but I rarely have time to rest, I only think about ending this troubled world as soon as possible, so that the people of the world can avoid the suffering of war."

"Ambition, I admit, but why was I ambitious in the first place?"

"When I was in Chenjia Village, I only hoped that the life of the people could be better, that the taxes would be less, and that there would be no natural or man-made disasters."

"I just hope that if I get more food every year, my whole family will be free from disasters and diseases, and that's it."

He seemed to be talking to Chen Ai, and he seemed to be muttering to himself.

Chen Ai hugged his father's body tightly, and tears couldn't help but fall from his eyes.

"The world is impermanent."

"Bullies are rampant in the villages, the homeless people are homeless, and the people have no way to live, causing chaos in the world and smoke everywhere."

"I originally wanted to repay my benefactor, so I commanded the troops to guard Puyang, and I had a small success in fighting with the Yellow Turban."

"At that time, I was still thinking that if I could get an official position and keep a lifetime of wealth, it would not be the greatest pursuit in this life."

"However, the imperial court has been decayed, the ten permanent servants control the government and frame meritorious ministers, and the roots of the Han Dynasty have been completely rotten."

"The court doesn't need me, but the yellow scarf cherishes me."

"I struggled to move forward step by step, and when more and more people gathered around me, I couldn't stop, because if I stopped, many people would be doomed."

Chen Xu chattered and said a lot to Chen Ai.

Chen Ai listened silently all the time and didn't interject at all.

"Hey!"

After saying it for a long time, Chen Xu sighed heavily.

"In this process, how many fresh lives have left the world, how many once familiar robes have left me, and what have I gained?"

Chen Xu smiled bitterly.

Maybe in the eyes of others, he is very beautiful now, and he almost sits on the whole world.

However, when he was old, sick, and lying in bed, he realized that the results of his life's struggle were actually nothing.

"The moment my brother died, I felt tired, very tired, very tired."

"Maybe I've been tired for too long in my life, and I really want to rest, but for revenge, I don't want to rest."

"But when it was all over, I realized that my heart was empty."

Hearing this, Chen Ai finally couldn't help it.

He saved Chen Xu's body and shouted loudly: "Father, Dongwu is not destroyed, the world is undecided, you still have a lot of things to do." ”

"You have to cheer up, my Chen clan will eventually sweep the world, glorious for eternity!"

Hearing Chen Ai's words, Chen Xu shook his head.

"Sun Quan is in a safe corner, why be afraid? Once the army is overwhelmed, the Eastern Wu Shi clan will definitely surrender. ”

"I have made a promise from a white body, if your brothers can't even destroy Dongwu, they are not worthy of being my Chen Xu's son."

Speaking of this, Chen Xu paused.

"It's just that I still have some things that I can't worry about."

……

At the end of the year, Chen Xu rushed back to Chang'an under the escort of the army, and his body, which was already getting worse and worse, miraculously supported it.

At the same time, Chen Jun also received a handwritten letter from Chen Xu and rushed from Youzhou to Chang'an.

As for Chen Hu, he left the affairs of Youzhou and rushed back to Chang'an in the starry night, preparing to meet Chen Xu.

When Chen Xu arrived in Chang'an, it was already in the second year.

Due to Chen Xu's serious illness, the strategy that was originally going to attack Eastern Wu was canceled.

Chen Xu had just entered Guanzhong, and before he arrived in Luoyang, Hua Tuo had already been invited from Chang'an.

Chen Xu stayed in Luoyang for a period of time, and with Hua Tuo's careful recuperation, his body began to improve slowly, but it was not very obvious.

It is precisely because of Hua Tuo's arrival that Chen Xu was able to survive this winter.

Before Chen Xu arrived in Chang'an, the Son of Heaven had already taken hundreds of officials out of the city fifty miles to greet him, and Zhang Ling, Zhao Yu, and Lu Qiling were also among them.

The Son of Heaven is also very concerned about Chen Xu's physical condition.

The Son of Heaven knew that when Chen Xu was alive, at least the Han Dynasty would not change hands, and once Chen Xu died, the world would immediately change his surname.

Therefore, Liu Feng really cares about Chen Xu's body, rather than making superficial movements.

What made Liu Feng feel at ease was that the moment he saw Chen Xu, he found that Chen Xu's complexion was much better than he imagined.

In fact, not only Liu Feng, Chen Xu's physical condition has affected many people.

Many of the retired Yellow Turban Ministries, after receiving the news that Chen Xu was critically ill, also rushed to Chang'an from various states and counties.

Almost all of these old Yellow Turbans who retired alive have a lot of military exploits, are officials in various places, and have a very hot temper.

Their arrival also made the generals in charge of public security in Chang'an feel great pressure.

For these old Yellow Turban departments, Chen Xu naturally couldn't summon them one by one, in fact, most of the surviving Yellow Turban Old Department were just children during the uprising.

Yellow turban generals like Bai Rao have also died of illness over the years, and there are few people left behind.

Some time ago, there was an endless stream of guests visiting the palace of King Qin.

Those who were able to enter and leave the palace of the King of Qin were either high-ranking generals in the army or ministers in charge of the central government.

There are also some famous people who are very prestigious among some big families, and half a month has passed, and there are fewer people who come to visit.

In order to let Chen Xu recover well, Zhang Ling finally issued an order to refuse all visitors.

The weather has gradually warmed up, Chen Xu sits on a special wooden chair, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds in the courtyard.

"The sky is beautiful."

The sky was blue, and the white clouds were like cotton piled together, one after the other.

In later generations, such a sky is already difficult to see.

"yes, it's really beautiful!"

Zhang Ling stood behind Chen Xu, a pair of plain hands gently pinching his shoulders.

At this time, Zhang Ling is almost sixty years old, but she pays more attention to maintenance, and she looks like a young woman in her forties.

For so many years, Chen Xu has often fought abroad, and the husband and wife have not spent much time together.

After Chen Xu returned to Chang'an after falling ill, he had time to accompany his wife, and Zhang Ling, Zhao Yu, and Lu Qiling accompanied him every day.

Stretching out his right hand, Chen Xu grabbed Zhang Ling, then pulled her to sit on the chair and gently took her into his arms.

"I'm sorry for all these years of suffering you."

Chen Xu pressed his face tightly against Zhang Ling's face, his long beard hung directly down to her thighs, the spring breeze blew, and the slightly gray beard danced with the wind.

Zhang Ling was like a kitten, curled up in Chen Xu's arms, letting the two of them stick their bodies as close as possible.

"It should be said that you have worked hard all these years."

Zhang Ling spoke very softly, as if she didn't want to break this warm atmosphere, and her hands quietly wrapped around Chen Xu's bear waist.

And that's exactly what happened.

Chen Xu has been fighting abroad all the year round, and although he seems to be beautiful on the surface, he has actually suffered a lot.

As a prince, he has a lot of things to worry about, and he rarely has time to rest, even when he is resting, there are things that cannot be dealt with.

Therefore, compared with several women staying at home every day, Chen Xu is indeed more difficult.

Chen Xu didn't speak, but just hugged Zhang Ling's arms harder and harder, they closed their eyes and listened to each other's heartbeats.

After a long time, Zhang Ling said: "I still remember the first time I saw you, it was when Ah Weng was seriously ill. ”

"At that time, Aung said that he would marry me to a young hero, and let me hide behind the curtain and watch you quietly."

Chen Xu smiled and said, "Actually, at that time, I found that there was someone behind the curtain, but I didn't expect to hide from a big beauty." ”

A flush appeared on Zhang Ling's face, but she still said: "Before I got married, I also fantasized about marrying a hero. ”

"He's out there, and I can hide behind him and watch silently, sharing in the glory that belongs to him."

"At that time, the Yellow Turban Rebellion had already failed, and even if Ah Weng wanted you to take charge of the Yellow Turban, I didn't expect that it might succeed."

"However, marrying you is Awen's last wish, and I have no reason to refuse."

"But after marrying you, I have never regretted it, but every time you go on an expedition, I always wake up in my sleep."

"I've always been worried that something will happen to you on the battlefield."

Speaking of this, Zhang Ling's eyes were filled with tears, but she didn't wipe them away, and let the tears drip on Chen Xu.

Chen Xu listened quietly.

He also knows that several of his women have been afraid of themselves over the years.

Zhang Ling paused for a moment before continuing: "It wasn't until I matured later that I realized that what I wanted was not a hero, but a warm family. ”

Hearing this, Chen Xu couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart.

"Compared to the rest of the men, you are so good to our sisters, even if you are often out fighting, we can still feel the warmth from you."

Zhang Ling raised her head and looked at Chen Xu with some obsession.

After a long time, he stretched out his left hand and gently stroked Chen Xu's cheek, stroking his slightly pale beard and the wrinkles on his forehead.

"You are the best gift from Heaven to me."

Zhang Ling's eyes were filled with tears, but she kept smiling and smiling very brightly.

Chen Xu felt that his nose was a little sour, and said astringently: "You are also the best gift given to me by God, if it were not for you, I would not be where I am today." ”

At this time, Chen Xu couldn't help but recall the past.

Before Zhang Jiao died of illness, he married Zhang Ling to Chen Xu, and also selected tens of thousands of yellow turban elites, and asked Chen Xu to take them to hide in the mountains and wait for the world to change.

Chen Xu had already left, but he was still at ease, those Yellow Turban Army who stayed in Guangzong.

Because Chen Xu knew that in history, Guangzong would be broken by Huangfu Song, and tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers jumped into the Qinghe River to commit suicide, and all the old and young in the city were slaughtered.

At that time, Chen Xu had completely integrated into the Yellow Turban and sympathized with these people who were forced to rebel.

The kindness and sense of responsibility in his heart made Chen Xu finally change his mind and prepare to lead a part of the elite back to Guangzong and fight to the death with Huangfu Song.

At that time, everyone spoke out against it, and Chen Xu was the first to take charge of the army, and he couldn't suppress the old Yellow Turban Marshal.

At the critical moment, Zhang Ling stepped forward.

She changed her usual gentleness and weakness, and forced her to die, so that those yellow turban handsomes agreed with Chen Xu's opinion.

It can be said that Chen Xu's decision was enough to change his life.

Although Zhang Liang was not rescued in the end, although the Yellow Turban Army still died a lot, Chen Xu's behavior made him recognized by all the Yellow Turbans.

Subsequently, Chen Xu even waved his troops north and kidnapped Tian Feng in Julu.

In the case of the failure to rescue Zhang Bao, Chen Xu led 3,000 cavalry to fight for thousands of miles, and finally killed Huangfu Song to avenge Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao.

Chen Xu even made a bet with Tian Feng, and finally got Tian Feng's allegiance, so that Chen Xu got the first strategist in his life.

It was with Tian Feng's long-term vision that Chen Xu abandoned the old nest of Mount Tai and settled on Taihang Mountain.

Defeating Huangfu Song also made Chen Xu famous all over the world, completely recognized by the yellow turban in the world, and also accumulated capital for the later hegemony of the world.

It can be said that if Chen Xu hadn't gone to rescue Guangzong at that time, he would have only carried the remnants of the yellow scarf at most, and he would have survived in Mount Tai.

If you're lucky, maybe you'll defect to Cao Cao in the future and become an official.

If you are unlucky, I am afraid that you will be exterminated by the imperial court or the princes of one side long ago, and there will be no today's situation.

Therefore, Zhang Ling was forced to die at that time, but Chen Xu's entire life changed dramatically.

Chen Xu stretched out his right hand and gently stroked Zhang Ling's cheek, stroking her eyes, eyebrows, and crow's feet at the corners of her eyes.

Zhang Ling's eyes were closed, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, looking extremely charming.

In the end, Chen Xu held Zhang Ling's head, leaned down, and gently kissed her forehead.

Courtyard entrance.

Zhao Yu, Lu Qiling and Chen Ting, the three women had tears in their eyes, quietly watching the warm scene in front of them.

Zhao Yu wiped a handful of tears, pulled Lu Qiling and Chen Ting away, and left the space for the two.
