611: Chapter 567: Sudden Heartache 611: Chapter 567: Sudden Heartache In the central command tent of the Lingwu Army, Changsun Bubai, who was discussing with his subordinates how to resist if Tujue attacked, suddenly felt a pain in his chest.
Seeing Changsun Bubai clutching his chest with a pained expression, Zhang San asked, “What’s wrong with the Military Envoy?
Are you feeling unwell?
Soone, quickly get a cup of hot water for the Military Envoy.”
Changsun Bubai shot Zhang San a glance, then looked around at all the generals in the camp.
Although Changsun Wuji was inept, he had indeed made so progress recently and was also in the central command tent, learning with the others.
Changsun Wugen and Changsun Wudiao were also nearby.
“Where is Li Xuanmin?”
Li Xuanmin imdiately stood up, “Military Envoy, I am here.”
“Go imdiately to Youde and see if anything’s wrong with her.
Then send soone to ensure her safety before you return.”
Li Xuanmin looked utterly confused.
He did not know why his future father-in-law suddenly assigned him such a task, but he dared not ask and dared not refuse, so he could only go about the task first and then ask his master Zhang San what it all ant afterward.
Could it be sothing that he should not hear was going to be discussed, and that was why he was sent away?
At that mont, Zhang San curiously said, “Military Envoy, what happened?
It seems your heart is uncomfortable.
Otherwise… why don’t you hand over the military power to and go back to rest?”
Changsun Bubai glared at Zhang San, angrily said, “What?
You want to take power now?”
“See, I’m just worried about you.”
Changsun Bubai sighed deeply and spoke softly, “To be honest, when my wife was murdered initially, I did not know, but suddenly felt a heartache, and later I found out that the mont I felt the heartache was when my wife was being murdered by the Tujue.”
“Though this kind of psychic connection is mysterious, now that I feel this heartache, I always fear that sothing must have happened to soone important to .”
Just then, Li Xuanmin ca in from outside, and Changsun Bubai hastily asked, “How is Youde?
Has she encountered any danger?”
Li Xuanmin chuckled and said, “No!
Youde said the weather will get cold soon, so she is sewing a cotton-padded jacket for .”
After saying this, Li Xuanmin’s face showed a wave of smug smiles.
Changsun Bubai gave his unlucky son-in-law a displeased look and coldly said, “You are young and full of vigor; why fear the cold weather?
Let Youde make that jacket a bit larger, I’ll wear it in a while.”
“Ah!
Then I… um… okay.”
Li Xuanmin felt like crying, wishing he hadn’t shown off.
He had thought, among the generals in the camp, many were single, and yet he had a fiancée, who was the Military Envoy’s daughter, and wanted to show off a bit.
As a result, the very display made his cotton-padded jacket vanish.
Li Xuanmin looked at his master Zhang San, hoping his master could help him, as it was the first cotton-padded jacket Youde was preparing this winter, and he naturally hoped to be the first one to wear it as her fiancé.
Is it conceivable that he, a dignified fiancé, should wear the second jacket sewn by his fiancée?
There’s no such logic in the world!
Zhang San saw the pleading look in Li Xuanmin’s eyes, nodded, and said, “I don’t have thick clothes; let Youde make the second one according to my size!”
Li Xuanmin dared not speak anymore, afraid that if he said anything more, even the third wouldn’t be his.
Just then, a soldier hurriedly ran in.
“Reporting to the Military Envoy, a war horse just ran from the east.
The decorations look like those of our Sui Army’s war horse, there are bloodstains on the horse but no rider on it.”
Changsun Bubai, sensing that sothing was amiss, imdiately shouted, “Soone, go out and search towards the east!”
Zhang San knew that Changsun Bubai was so agitated because he felt that soone very important to him had just had an accident.
Thus, he led Li Xuanmin and the Changsun brothers along with a significant number of n, even calling upon the maid team, and they all left the Lingwu Army camp, continuing their search towards the east.
And after Hei had a conversation with that war horse, the horse led the way.
Zhang San glanced at Hei and said, “Not bad!
You can even communicate with horses.”
Now, Hei was no longer Zhang San’s mount.
Because earlier, Zhang San had agreed with Hei that Hei would cover his escape from the clutches of Khan Long Bo, and afterward, Hei would be free.
In the end, their connection was nothing more than that Hei had eaten the precious horse given to Zhang San by Principal Officer Xin on the road to Mingzhi Mountain.
“By the way, Hei, now that I’m giving you your freedom, you can go wherever you want.
Also, the na Hei was sothing I ca up with on the spur of the mont.
You can change it to sothing nicer if you like.”
Hei shook his head slightly and said, “But…
I’m not good at naming either!”
Li Xuanmin, standing beside them, asked quietly, “What was your original na then?”
“My original na is Chi · Shadow of the Deep Sea Surge · Dragon Breath Extinguisher · Vortex Dominant · Dragon.”
Zhang San gave Hei a sidelong glance and said coldly, “Tell the truth.”
“Chi Er Xiao Long.”
Li Xuanmin said, “How about this?
My surna is Li, why don’t you take the surna Li too?
As for your first na, I’m not great at naming either.”
Hei felt that he hadn’t thought of a good na yet, but having a surna for now was not bad.
“Alright, I’ll take the surna Li for now, and we can decide on the na later.”
Just then, soone suddenly shouted ahead, “Military Envoy, a corpse has been discovered up front.”
The group imdiately sped up and then discovered a corpse with a twisted face lying on the ground.
It was the second son of i Fei, i Xiu.
“Is that i Xiu!?”
Everyone was curious as to why i Xiu would die here.
But what intrigued them even more was why Changsun Bubai would be heartbroken at the death of i Xiu.
However, Zhang San noticed that there seed to be sothing very important in i Xiu’s embrace.
He reached in and pulled out a blood-stained letter.
Upon opening it, the elegant small text appeared to be a woman’s handwriting.
And at a glance at the content, Zhang San’s eyes widened.
“Military Envoy, your heart isn’t hurting now, is it?”
Changsun Bubai shook his head, then looked at Zhang San with so wariness and asked, “What does the letter say?”
“You…
see for yourself.”
As Zhang San handed over the letter to Changsun Bubai, he made a gesture to Changsun Wugen and Changsun Wudiao standing nearby to move closer to Changsun Bubai.
And just as Changsun Bubai read that i Xiu was indeed his son but now his son was dead, he let out a cry of anguish and then fainted.
Fortunately, Changsun Wugen and Changsun Wudiao were close by to support Changsun Bubai.
At that mont, Bai Dushu suddenly sensed sothing and alerted, “Be careful, a powerful figure is approaching!”
Zhang San and the others imdiately went on alert.
Simultaneously, a strong figure suddenly descended from the sky and landed in front of everyone.
“Who is Zhang San?”
