Qin Qiong successfully attacked Jie Li in Hunhe, causing the Turks to lose countless supplies in one fell swoop. However, this was just the beginning. In the next period, Qin Qiong led this elite cavalry like a pack of wolves, staring at Jie Li tightly, and often took a few bites while the Turks were relaxing. This also made Jie Li not dare to divide the troops at all, let alone relax, and rushed all the way to retreat towards Yinshan.

In Dingxiang City in the rear, Zhao Deyan temporarily took over the affairs here, and Li Jing had already led his army to leave. He heard that he was going to catch up with Qin Qiong and Li Ji's army and then launch a decisive battle against the Turks. However, Zhao Deyan always felt that Li Jing was afraid that all the credit would be snatched away by Qin Qiong and Li Ji, so he hurried over.

There were tens of thousands of former Sui survivors in Dingxiang City that needed management, and Zhao Deyan only took over temporarily. After Li Xiu sent officials from the rear, he could return to Chang'an to report to Li Shimin. However, during this period, he was full of sorrow, because Yang, who should have been back long ago, had no news, and he didn't even see a guard protecting her, which made Zhao Deyan very worried about her safety.

Although Zhao Deyan and Yang had a huge age difference, and at the beginning it was just a political marriage, after a period of time, Zhao Deyan was very satisfied with Yang, a gentle woman. He had experienced the pain of family destruction and cherished his family very much. However, he did not expect that when he was about to succeed, Yang had an accident on the road, which made him unable to sleep and eat all night and couldn't sleep all night.

Queen Xiao also saw the concerns in Zhao Deyan's heart, and also guessed that her granddaughter might have encountered an accident. However, she was a smart woman, and she only hinted several times in her words, and even strictly prohibited Yang Zhengdao and the others from asking about Yang's whereabouts, so as not to make Zhao Deyan sad.

Early that morning, Zhao Deyan forced himself to inspect the public security in Dingxiang City. When Li Jing left, he left him five hundred defenders. In addition, Empress Xiao's original five hundred guards, there were barely a thousand defenders, but the food in the city was still very short of food. When it was occupied by the Turks, the city was about to starve to death. Fortunately, after Zhao Deyan took over the affairs of the city, he immediately concentrated all the food and distributed it to the people in the city to overcome the difficulties. However, the food could not last long. Fortunately, Li Xiu from the rear had sent someone to notify him that he had prepared a batch of food and grass and probably would be transported to the people today.

Thinking of Li Xiu, Zhao Deyan was also full of gratitude. It can be said that in his life, Li Xiu was the greatest nobleman in his life. If it were not for Li Xiu's recommendation, he would not have had the chance to approach Jie Li, nor would he have a chance to avenge his family. Now the Turks have shown signs of destruction of the country, which is also inseparable from him. When he thinks of this, Zhao Deyan felt an unspeakable pleasure in his heart.

At this moment, a guard suddenly rushed to report that there was a group of people outside the city, which made Zhao Deyan immediately climb to the top of the city. As a result, he saw at a glance that the young man in the head was a spirited young man, Li Xiu, who had not seen for many years. Behind him were teams of carriages, and there were no need to ask, and it was known that it must be various materials for transportation.

Seeing that Li Xiu had come in person, Zhao Deyan couldn't help but show a surprise expression. He hurriedly got off the city and opened the city gate to greet him. When Li Xiu saw Zhao Deyan, he couldn't help but jump off his horse and laughed: "Brother Zhao has been together for many years, are you okay?"

"Mr. Concubine! Little man..." Zhao Deyan felt extremely excited when he said something, and he had already become a little sobbing. If the person who understands him best in this world is probably the only person in front of him.

"Brother Zhao, everything is over, and I will bring you a surprise!" Li Xiu also stepped forward to support Zhao Deyan, and then said to him again with a mysterious look on his face.

"Surprise?" Zhao Deyan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Li Xiu's words, and then raised his head and looked at him in confusion.

At this time, Li Xiu smiled and then pointed behind him. At this time, Zhao Deyan discovered that there was a carriage following Li Xiu, not a carriage that transports goods, but a carriage that carriages, and it was very gorgeous. You could tell at a glance that it was very comfortable and could only be used for people.

Just when Zhao Deyan was puzzled, he suddenly saw the door of the carriage being opened, and then a familiar figure walked out of the carriage. When he saw Zhao Deyan, the man jumped out of the carriage and ran over and shouted: "Husband, I finally saw you!"

"Ping...Ping Mother? You...How could you come with the prince consort?" Zhao Deyan couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw Yang's family, and even asked in disbelief. Yang had disappeared for several days, and he had been worried about her safety, but he never expected that she would come to Dingxiang with Li Xiu. This was simply unbelievable.

"Haha~, it is naturally a gratifying thing for you couples to reunite, but we have been traveling for a long time, so let's talk before going to the city!" Li Xiu interrupted the joy of Zhao Deyan and his wife when they reunite. After all, it is not a solution for them to block the city gates, and the brothers who were escorting the team behind were waiting to enter the city to rest.

After hearing Li Xiu say this, Zhao Deyan woke up and didn't have time to ask Yang about his experience in the past few days. He hurriedly invited Li Xiu to the city and asked someone to arrange for the acceptance of these materials. A small part of these materials were used by the people in Dingxiang City, and the other part was sent to the front line to support Li Jing's army.

"Mr. Concubine, why are you here in person?" After arranging the above matters, Zhao Deyan remembered to ask this question. After all, there is no need to let Li Xiu go there in person in case of escorting supplies.

"Actually nothing. We received a war report before that General Qin Qiong and Qin had defeated the Turks in Hunhe, causing the Turks to lose a lot of supplies. Now the Turks are only concerned about escaping all the way, and our army is also chasing them. Dingxiang is closer to the front line and it is convenient for the dispatch of supplies. In addition, I heard that you are also in Dingxiang, so I decided to come here to take a look and arrange for someone to send Queen Xiao and others to Chang'an!" Li Xiu replied with a smile at this time.

"So that's it, but will Your Majesty really make things difficult for Empress Xiao and King Sui?" When he heard Li Xiu mention Empress Xiao in his words, Zhao Deyan couldn't help asking with concern. Although Li Xiu had promised him about this before, he was still a little worried.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty was very happy after knowing that Empress Xiao and others surrendered, so Empress Xiao and the others will definitely be properly placed after returning to Chang'an!" Li Xiu promised again at this time.

After hearing Li Xiu's words, Zhao Deyan finally felt relieved. At this time, he finally remembered the incident of Yang again and asked again: "Mr. Concubine, how did you meet my wife and the others?"
