  Chapter 339 Their Persistence

  Ruan Youqing, who planned to hide in the city for a few days, was completely exposed to the Ruan family father and son by Ruan Youning.

   Ruan Youqing regretted that she shouldn't have followed Auntie to the west gate, and almost wanted to sigh up to the sky.

  However, father and elder brother had already come before them.

  Ruan Youqing plucked up the courage to look up at them, but as expected, they were too angry to speak.

  Ruan Ye and Ruan Lingjun never imagined that Xiao Youqing, who was so well-behaved, would actually come back after agreeing to them to leave!

   "Daddy...brother...I...can't leave..." After all, Ruan Youqing was the first to break the silence.

Ruan Lingjun frowned and didn't speak, but Ruan Ye sighed and reached out to touch Ruan Youqing's head: "Forget it, I already know what you mean. Since you're here...stay with us. Our Ruan family... You can’t get rid of this mission no matter what.”

  Ruan Youqing originally wanted to explain that he was because of them, but when he saw the various faces around them who were all moved looking at their family, Ruan Youqing could only swallow the words he wanted to blurt out.

  She might... be the most selfish member of the Ruan family...

  Ruan Ye didn't say anything more, and after sending someone to take Ruan Youqing and his party to rest, the lifeless Lao Sun and the three who followed Ruan Youqing all the way were also taken to the Governor's Mansion and imprisoned.

  They have to get rid of the Jie tribe first before they can have the energy to deal with these internal troubles.

  Ruan Youqing was indeed exhausted from the rush, so she planned to rest for a while before going to discuss the war with her father and the others.

  The fourth prince Li Han was also driven to rest.

  Ruan Youning was familiar with him, seeing that his expression was a little gloomy, he couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, we are here, and the Jie people won't attack us."

   After listening, Li Han raised his eyes to look at Ruan Youning, and then at Ruan Youqing.

   Just when Ruan Youqing thought he was not going to speak, Li Han finally said in a hoarse voice: "You Ning, you... take care of your sister. Don't let her run out. Save...something happens."

  Ruan Youning was dissatisfied that Ruan Youqing was underestimated, so he pouted and replied, "Don't underestimate Youqing, Youqing is stronger than you."

  If it was the past, Li Han would have been unconvinced and clamored for a competition. But now, Li Han's eyes were a little red and he said: "General Xinyang who defended the city with me... died. He is also stronger than me, but...he is still no match for the general of the Jie tribe. I watched helplessly. watching him die and doing nothing about it...I don't want you...to feel that way."

  Hearing the death of a familiar person, Ruan Youqing's heart was shocked.

  Xinyang...the young general who guarded the Cangmang River with her...

   It’s just that they had never met before…

  And now...there is no chance to meet.

  Ruan Youqing still remembers his elder brother Xinxiu.

  The governor of Jingbian Town.

  The two brothers, one civil and one military, are dedicated to Ningguo wholeheartedly.

  However... those in high positions ignore the lives of these loyal and patriotic people because of their own greed.

   "Young Qing!"

   Just as darkness flowed in Ruan Youqing's eyes, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind her.

   "Deyin?" Ruan Youqing turned her head abruptly, looking at the visitor with a look of shock.

  Xiao Deyin raised the hem of her skirt and ran towards Ruan Youqing. The two held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes.

   "Didn't you go to Fenglan with Mrs. Xiao? Why did you come here? And... those powerless people have already withdrawn, why are you still here?"

   Wanted to know too much, Ruan Youqing simply asked all of them.

  Xiao Deyin was no longer indifferent in front of others, and immediately after Ruan Youqing finished asking, he couldn't laugh or cry: "You have asked so many questions in one breath, which one should I answer first?"

   "I'll listen to them one by one." Ruan Youqing replied solemnly.

Xiao Deyin listened, then nodded and said: "Okay, let me tell you one by one. The reason why I came here is because I came here with my grandfather and the food. The reason why I didn't leave is because my grandfather insisted on staying in the This place refuses to leave. As the young lady of the Xiao family, I naturally want to be with my grandfather."

   "Master Xiao is here too?" After hearing Xiao Deyin's answer, Ruan Youqing immediately began to look around to see if there was any figure of Master Xiao.

   Seeing this, Xiao Deyin quickly said: "Don't look for it, my grandfather stayed with the fourth prince on the gate tower for a long time, and he was willing to come back to rest after General Ruan and the others came back."

  It turns out that Dad and the others just came back not long ago.

   "Okay, Xiaoqing, you must be tired from the hasty journey, go and rest for a while, and we will talk about everything after you have rested."

  Xiao Deyin pushed Ruan Youqing to a tidy room, but Ruan Youqing stopped and turned to look at the other party: "Deyin, go and persuade Mrs. Xiao to leave, and you will follow along."

  After Ruan Youqing spoke worriedly, Xiao Deyin shook his head stubbornly: "Youqing, do you know why my grandfather insists on staying here?"

  Ruan Youqing shook his head.

   "Then... have you heard the news from the capital..."

  「You mean…」

   "The prince... completely reversed. My grandfather felt ashamed in his heart, and felt that he was a teacher in vain..."

   "No!" Ruan Youqing took the words with a solemn face: "This has nothing to do with Taifu Xiao! It is Li Yi himself who is not good enough, and goes against the teachings of the Taifu."

Xiao Deyin smiled unusually calmly at this time: "It doesn't matter anymore. Grandpa feels ashamed that he should not leave Changzhou City. After all, the crown prince colluded with the Jie people, so he has to show his position with Changzhou." The state and the city will live and die together. Although we cannot go to the battlefield with you to kill the enemy, we... have our persistence."

   "But if you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about running out of firewood, and you have to move forward and retreat slowly..."

"Xiaoqing, we all understand these things. But... someone needs to know how to advance and retreat, and someone... has to guard the most stubborn... heart. If everyone runs away, only the soldiers are left to fight hard... It would be a bit sad .At first I didn’t agree with my grandfather’s idea, thinking that his work was useless. But now I really understand that although we can’t fight and kill the enemy with you, we can stay here until the end. We want to let The world knows that literati are not only good at reciting poems and fighting against each other. We... also have the passion to sacrifice our lives for the country and show our ambitions.”

  Ruan Youqing was a little dazed at first, but she finally understood what Xiao Deyin wanted to express.

   Taifu Xiao wants to use his life to express his patriotism and morality.

  Who said that literati only dare to stay behind others when facing enemy attacks.

   A literati with backbone can naturally guard until the last moment.

Just when Ruan Youqing was feeling emotional, Ruan Youning had already walked between the two of them, and while embracing one of them, he said, "Okay, okay, don't say anything depressing! Our Changzhou City is not so easy to break through! Mr. Xiao will definitely be able to Live a long life, at a time like this, don’t say much about whether you will die or not. It’s not easy for us to get together here, but it’s easy to talk about it. Hmm... But... Li Ange is missing."

  Ruan Youning still remembers the scene when several people in the capital had a drink and chatted happily on the day the envoy entered the capital.

  However, as soon as she finished speaking, the expressions of Ruan Youqing and Xiao Deyin became complicated.

  Ruan Youning finally realized Li Ange's identity.
