Chapter 7 — After Reconciliation, I Was Appointed County King

In front of the main hall, the incense burner burned very loudly, the incense smoke blew into my face, making me a little nauseous. I quickly covered my mouth and held it together with difficulty. In my ear, I heard an immature child's voice: "Uncle, are you sick?" The little novice spoke with concern. I quickly suppressed the nausea and shook my head: "I'm just a little tired recently, thank you for your concern." I didn't take it to heart and went to the back yard of the temple to meet the Queen Mother. Every year during the Thuong Nguyen period, the Queen Mother also goes to the pagoda to pray for blessings. At this time, she is wearing civilian clothes, enjoying the snow in the back mountain. Seeing me, a smile appeared on the Queen Mother's face, she pulled me to sit down, and asked with concern: "Your mood is not very good, isn't the divorce going well?" My heart warmed up: "Thank you for your concern, the Queen Mother, I'm just a little tired from handling the books." Hearing this, the Queen Mother did not ask much, and changed the subject. "After you separated, your status was somewhat awkward, and it will be difficult to socialize in the capital in the future. Ai family intends to choose another girl for you, I see." How?” I was stunned. After separating, I never thought we could get married again. Just as he was about to refuse, the corner of his eye suddenly caught a flash of light. It's the assassin's sword! I reacted, my body was faster than my mind, I instinctively rushed to cover the Queen Mother behind me. The next second, a figure flashed forward, the light of a knife rushing straight in front of him. I instinctively closed my eyes, but the pain I expected did not appear. The sound of clashing weapons rang out. I opened my eyes and saw a woman wearing general armor fighting with the assassins, quickly repelling the assassins. The other person did not pursue, but knelt and worshiped the Queen Mother. "Please forgive the Queen Mother, my subordinates are late in rescuing you." The voice was a bit familiar, I instinctively looked over, facing a pair of familiar eyes. She is the niece of the Queen Mother, general Tu Thanh Hoan. Once I saved the Queen Mother's life, Tu Thanh Hoan was sent to protect me. Later, when I got married, I heard that she asked herself to come to the border to guard the border. Why did she return to the capital now? The Queen Mother hugged her chest to calm down after being frightened, and said in a cold voice: "Seal the temple for you, investigate for you to see who dared to kill you!" "Subordinates take orders." The temple immediately put a curfew. I helped the Queen Mother to the meditation room, and the royal physician followed to check her pulse and prescribe medicine. Just now when I met an assassin, the Queen Mother did not trust others, so I personally went to collect the medicine. But as soon as he stepped out of the meditation room, he encountered Giang So Uyen. She was stopped outside the backyard door, impatiently saying something to the eunuch's guard, her shirt stained with wind and snow, her pale face filled with urgent worry. After seeing me, her expression finally lightened. She held my shoulder tightly and looked up and down. "I heard that the Queen Mother met assassins at the rear of the mountain, the temple is under curfew, are you okay?" Giang So Uyen's face was full of worry, this is still the first time I've seen her. Having heard that I encountered an avalanche and almost lost my life, she had never been so worried about my safety. I quickly avoided her hand, my voice cold. "I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Lord Giang." Giang So Uyen was still uneasy, sizing me up and down, afraid something would happen to me. I went around her and found Tu Thanh Hoan who had just been protecting the Queen Mother. "The royal doctor has prescribed medicine, I want to give the Queen Mother a dose of tranquility." Tu Thanh Hoan still remembered me, his sharp eyes softened a bit. "Go." After a moment, she looked behind me again: "Who is this?" I turned my head and saw Giang So Uyen following, instinctively frowning. In Giang So Uyen's eyes, there was only the person in front of her. Seeing me frown at her, her eyes darkened. She glanced at Tu Thanh Hoan and instinctively called out to me: "Husband, I don't feel secure about you.

Wherever you go, I will go with you..." Before I could finish the words, I was interrupted. "You and I have no relationship, Mr. Jiang has dignity." Giang So Uyen choked. I didn't want to get involved with her. I was about to ask Tu Thanh Hoan to help chase people away, but as soon as I raised my head, my head suddenly became dizzy. I couldn't control it and fell straight forward. There was a ringing in my ears, someone nervously called my name, my wrist was caught by one left and one right. I don't know. Whose voice was saying: "Just hold on a little longer, the doctor will come immediately." My body seemed to be in chaos, I didn't know what had happened. I don't know how long it took before I felt my consciousness regain consciousness. At the same time, the doctor's clear voice came into my ear: "Master Giang is happy." The atmosphere was completely calm, then I realized that I was being helped into the meditation room of Queen Mother Giang So Uyen Hoan and the Queen Mother both heard the doctor's words. In a moment of silence, the doctor felt his pulse and opened his mouth again. "Having a baby is a happy thing. But Master Giang's body has been damaged for many years. If he doesn't take care of it carefully, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep it." Hearing this sentence, Giang So Uyen's fingertips trembled and finally regained consciousness. "Tac Du, this is our child."
