"Why are you here?"
Li Qiao asked curiously, while not forgetting to go home.
"I have been guarding the city gate, but I have been too worried and sleepless these days. While waiting for you, I happened to fall asleep when you returned to the city. When you rode away on your horse, I woke up with a start. .”
"I asked the soldiers guarding the city and found out that it was really you who came back. I hurriedly came here to guard."
Li Chui knelt down as he spoke: "The little one didn't do his job well just now. Please punish me."
"...Get up. Where is Brother Zhu?"
Li Qiao asked impatiently.
"Master Zhu is in the house."
Li Chuimai stood up quickly and hurriedly followed his footsteps, describing the situation at home in the past few days.
"Ever since Mr. Zhu learned that you were trapped in the border town, he has been very anxious. He couldn't eat or sleep. This evening, the Seventh Prince came with Dr. Chen and gave Mr. Zhu some soothing medicine. Mr. Zhu drank it. When the young one set out for the city gate, Master Liang said that Master Zhu had fallen asleep."
Hearing these words, Li Qiao felt as if his heart was being grasped by someone. He knew this would happen!
Brother Zhu values him more than his own life. It's strange that he can't sleep these days!
He took a deep breath and immediately ran towards his home.
Li Zhui hurriedly followed and gave him a brief report on the situation in the house in the past few days.
The arrival of the Seventh Prince that day really scared everyone in the mansion to tears. After hearing what the Seventh Prince said, Tao Zhu suddenly became short of breath. After being stunned for a few seconds, he wanted to run to the door of the leisure room.
The Seventh Prince knew what he was going to do and quickly stopped him.
After much persuasion, Tao Zhu still couldn't give up the idea of going to the border town. As a last resort, the Seventh Prince simply knocked him out.
Because the Guanbao guard stated that the situation was very serious in his report, under the circumstances at that time, staying in Shengjing was the best choice. If Tao Zhu led people to leave Shengjing and go to the border town, it would only cause chaos. Who would I know if the barbarians will break into Dajing Gate.
When Tao Zhu woke up again, Chang Wuchang's report had been sent to Shengjing.
The seventh prince quickly came to the house again.
Knowing that Li Qiao was safe and sound, Tao Zhu still wanted to go to the border town. Li Qiao hurried back, and he went to the border town so that he could meet him on the way.
Without seeing Li Qiao with his own eyes, every second he felt like he was being roasted on a fire. He felt so uncomfortable.
The seventh prince did not agree to Tao Zhu's request.
Although the border town was victorious, this victory was nothing. What if the barbarians attacked again?
Even if there is a temporary truce between the Hu people and there is no danger outside Shengjing City, if Tao Zhu takes Li Qian and others to the border town like this, it will only make the family worried.
Li Qiao hasn't come back yet, and the family has to worry about him. How can the family survive?
What to do with two children?
Dad is not here, and neither is daddy. The two children are only six years old.
After a long time of persuasion from the Seventh Prince, and a group of people from his family including Shen Hua, Zhou Yun and Meng's sister-in-law, Tao Zhu finally gave up on the idea of going to the border town.
But as Tao Zhu said himself, before he saw Li Qiao, he was on top of a fire every second, and his body was burned by the flames every second. He couldn't sit still, lie down, or eat, and was anxious all over. Totally don't know what to do.
So family members, Shen Hua, Zhou Yun, Meng's sister-in-law, and others have been taking turns to accompany him. The two children have also been sticking to his side, following him wherever he goes.
After enduring this for several days, he became extremely haggard. The Seventh Prince was afraid that he would become ill, so he brought Dr. Chen over to prescribe medicine for him.
Based on the time, everyone felt that Li Qiao would not return to Beijing so soon, so Tao Zhu drank the medicine and rested.
Not only Tao Zhu was suffering, but also the entire family. The three little ones, Li Changfeng, Li Yunfan, and Li Xiaorui, already knew the meaning of being trapped in the border town, and they kept crying.
The adults had to keep an eye on Tao Zhu and take care of the three children, and at the same time they were worried.
In short, in the past few days, except for the five little guys, Li Erbaoju, brother Zhao, and twins Zhao Cong, everyone in the family has been having trouble sleeping and eating.
Even the servants are like this.
This family is actually supported by Li Qiao. If something happens to Li Qiao, what will happen to this family?
What about these servants?
If the Li family cannot survive, will they be sold again?
Li Chui was also too worried and had hardly closed his eyes in the past few days, so he just fell asleep.
After Li Zhui finished briefly talking about the situation at home, Li Qiao happened to arrive at the door of his house.
The door was closed, so he ran over and knocked on it. Li Bian, who was guarding the door, heard his voice and was so excited that he opened the door and started shouting at the top of his lungs: "The master is back, the master is back!"
This loud and loud voice immediately called out a group of nurses in the front yard.
These people rushed to the east courtyard and announced the good news to the masters of the house, so the lights in the east and east courtyards were instantly bright.
At this moment, everyone was either awake or drowsy. Not only was Tao Zhu suffering, they were also worried.
When they learned that Li Qiao had returned home, Li Dashan, Li Ershan and others from the East Second Cross Courtyard, including Li Liang Wang Guihua, Li Shu and others from the East First Cross Courtyard, all rushed out.
Zheng Qianqian and Shen Hua were guarding Tao Zhu together. Shen Hua was lying on the kang, sleeping unsteadily. Zheng Qianqian didn't sleep at all. She was sitting next to Li Changfeng and Li Yunfan, looking at them. Small face.
The two little guys had just fallen asleep, and they cried a lot before going to bed, which made him feel heartbroken.
Hearing the shouts outside, Zheng Qianqian was overjoyed and jumped off the kang. She didn't even bother to put on her shoes and ran to the door in a hurry to confirm whether Li Qiao was really back.
But before he could take two steps, Tao Zhu, who was lying on the kang, suddenly woke up and sat up suddenly.
Tao Zhu sat blankly for two seconds. After confirming that someone outside was calling Li Qiao back, he hurriedly opened the thin quilt and jumped off the kang.
Before he could stand still, Zheng Qianqian's surprised voice came from outside: "Uncle! You are really back!"
This voice seemed to have taken away all the strength from Tao Zhu's body. His body was limp, his breathing was rapid, and tears welled up from his eyes without warning.
He stumbled and ran outside.
Shen Hua was also awakened. He opened his eyes wide and looked outside.
The door curtain embroidered with exquisite patterns was suddenly opened by a big hand, and Li Qiao's familiar figure appeared in the inner room.
Brother Qiao is really back!
Shen Hua was so happy that tears came out all of a sudden. He hurriedly got off the kang and prepared to leave so that he could give up the space to Li Qiao Tao Zhu.
"Brother Zhu!"
As soon as Li Qiao opened the door curtain, what he saw was Tao Zhu, who was staggering towards him with tears streaming down his face. He felt great pain in his heart and quickly stepped forward to hug him.
Falling into the arms of his thoughts day and night, Tao Zhu cried even more fiercely. He used his hands and feet to treat Li Qiao as a big tree and tightly wrapped around Li Qiao's body.
He squeezed into Li Qiao's arms, wishing he could squeeze himself into Li Qiao's body so that they would never be separated.
Tears blurred his vision, but based on countless experiences, his lips accurately found Li Qiao's lips.
He bit Li Qiao's lip hard, and his whole body trembled violently.
Salty hot tears fell down Tao Zhu's cheeks into Li Qiao's mouth, and his heart felt so sour.
His Brother Zhu suffered a great sin. He hugged the person tightly and gently responded to the kiss of the person in his arms.
Zheng Qianqian and Shen Hua each held one in their arms and quickly took away Li Changfeng and Li Yunfan.
Realizing that he and Tao Zhu were the only ones left in the room, Li Qiao closed the door with his feet, then carried Tao Zhu to the kang.
Putting the person on the kang, he pressed his whole body on top, which made it easier for Tao Zhu to squeeze into his arms.
Even though her limbs were wrapped around his body, Tao Zhu still kept moving vigorously in his arms, as if trying to find a gap in his body to get in.
He allowed Tao Zhu to move, and the gentle kiss turned into a violent storm.
Brother Zhu wants to feel his presence, but being gentle is useless and will only make the person in his arms cry more.
As expected, his movements became heavier and Tao Zhu's attention was diverted. Finally, he was willing to let go of his mouth and kept shouting his name.
Li Qiao.
Li Qiao.
Li Qiao.
The hoarse voice full of longing penetrated into his ears and into his heart.
Tears couldn't help but well up from his eyes, and he kissed the person in his arms harder. He decided that not only would he confess his superpower this time, but also that whenever he went to other places in the future, he would definitely take Brother Zhu with him.
Brother Zhu can't live without him.
He can't live without Brother Zhu either.
Just kissing couldn't express the thoughts in their hearts. Both of them wanted to be closer to each other, even closer.
When everything calmed down, Tao Zhu finally calmed down a little.
His eyes were swollen into walnuts and extremely dry, but he couldn't bear to close them. He wrapped his legs around Li Qiao's body, held Li Qiao's cheeks in his hands and looked at it carefully.
After a few glances, he leaned over and kissed her without saying a word. It was just that the sight and kissing were not enough.
From the time Li Qiao came back to now, he has never said another word except calling Li Qiao's name.
Li Qiao felt so uncomfortable that she raised her hand to grab his wrist, kissed his lips first, and then whispered: "Brother Zhu, I have something important to tell you."
Hearing this, Tao Zhu's eyelashes trembled a few times, his swollen eyes opened slightly with only a slit left, and his tear-stained face showed a little curiosity.
Just a little bit really.
It can be seen that Tao Zhu doesn't care much about the big things he talks about, and only cares about him.

With Tao Zhu in this state, Li Qiao immediately hesitated.
