On the day of departure, there was a lot of delay because of Mu Yang.
The reason is that Mu Yang insisted on bringing his small canoe with him, but Hui Chaoge kept everything simple and kept as much as possible, and brought Mu Yang's canoe with him if there was no room left.
Mu Yang was very unhappy, holding the wooden boat and yelling, "This is something I made with my own hands, it is my child, are you going to throw my child here?"
Wen Yantong was speechless, "Your child is a rather ugly wooden boat with bumps and holes?"
Mu Yang was furious, "I won't allow you to talk about my child like that!"
Wen Yantong let out a long sigh, turned around and called out, "Young Master, you can solve it, my head hurts."
Chi Jingxi came from the side, glanced at Mu Yang's wooden boat, and said, "Take it, and tie it to the roof of the carriage."
Wen Yantong was surprised, but Chi Jingxi actually agreed.
Mu Yang was very happy, and happily handed the wooden boat to the servants, and left after seeing the wooden boat tied to the carriage with his own eyes.
Wen Yantong was very puzzled. It stands to reason that Chi Jingxi shouldn't have indulged Mu Yang like this. "Why did the young master agree to bring this wooden boat back to Chaoge?"
Chi Jingxi looked at it and said, "Mu Yang has been here for six months, and the only thing he took away was this thing. You can't ask him to come here for nothing."
After hearing this, Wen Yantong understood a little. When leaving this time, everyone brought something as a souvenir of their visit to Yibei.
Mu Yang only brought a wooden boat, although he made it himself, but in his words, it was made of Yibei wood, so it was considered Yibei's wooden boat.
No matter what, I think that in the future, I will never have the opportunity to step into this land again.
Things were almost packed, Wen Yantong changed into men's clothes before leaving, and when he went out, he found that everyone was already there.
A Guan took her sweaty BMW that Cheng Xin had given her by the hand, and waited quietly.
Chi Jingxi finally took off her silver armor and put on a dark black silver embroidered robe, her long hair tied high, secured by a mahogany hairpin. He looked up at Wen Yantong, a smile slowly appeared in his eyes, and he waved to her.
Wen Yantong happily walked over, "Young Lord, are we leaving?"
Chi Jingxi nodded slightly, "Are you used to riding a horse? Why don't you take a carriage."
Wen Yantong said, "I'm used to riding, I came to Yibei on horseback."
After she finished speaking, as if she wanted to prove herself, she grabbed the saddle and climbed up. Chi Jingxi was watching, and suddenly reached out to support her waist, and pushed her onto the horse's back easily with all her strength.
Wen Yantong looked down at him, "Young Master, get on your horse quickly, too."
Chi Jingxi said, "If you're tired, tell me, I've prepared a carriage for you."
Wen Yantong replied, "I know."
After helping Wen Yantong onto the horse, he walked to the side of the horse's back, leaped up neatly, and took the horse rope for half a circle.
The people behind them were already ready, and they all looked at Chi Jingxi, waiting for his order.
Mu Yang was still stuffing food on Fu Zixian's horseback, Fu Zixian said, "Didn't we bring a lot?"
Mu Yang murmured, "I hid these things secretly, you can't ask Wen Yantong to find them out, or you'll snatch them from me!"
Fu Zi offered, "Why put it here?"
Mu Yang patted him on the shoulder, "Wen Yantong will never come to suspect you."
Wen Yantong, who witnessed everything beside him, was silent: Can't you stop hiding things in front of my face
Chi Jingxi glanced at the Yibei people on both sides of the road, then looked up at the warm sun above the sky, and finally raised his hand and gave an order, "Let's go!"
Mu Yang just hid the last pack of snacks, got on his horse, and blew a loud whistle.
Then everyone started to move, walking out along the street, mighty and mighty. Followed by the people of Yibei City, they sang a dialect song that Wen Yantong could not understand, the tune was long and lingering, and many of them shed tears.
Every household wanted to give them some things, but Chi Jingxi had ordered that they only take a token amount and not take anything else.
Saying goodbye is especially important when it is confirmed that we will never meet again in this life.
Although Wen Yantong didn't have deep feelings for these Yibei people, but in such a grand farewell scene, he couldn't help being touched. Sitting on the horseback, she stretched out her hand and waved, saying a silent goodbye.
When I came to Yibei, midsummer had not yet arrived, and when I left, winter had just arrived. But what remains the same is the brilliant sun in the sky and the never-ending wind.
Chi Jingxi said that they had to rush back to Chaoge before the road was blocked by heavy snow, so they couldn't stay on the road too long. Although they didn't live and eat like they did when they came here, they were still in a hurry on weekdays.
Mu Yang is very playful, always wanting to play for a while, at this time in the past, Wen Yantong would jump out and pretend to be a bad face, scolding Mu Yang for being playful.
Once when passing a river, Mu Yang refused to leave without saying anything, but insisted on taking down his small canoe, saying that he wanted to go in for a swim.
In fact, the wooden boat never crossed the water at all, and it is not known whether it can carry people on the water. Wen Yantong felt that it was risky, so he persuaded Mu Yang to go back to Chaoge and try again.
Mu Yang was naturally unwilling, it took quite a while, and finally it was Fu Zixian who helped persuade Mu Yang to win a chance for Mu Yang.
So the crowd stopped, waiting for Mu Yang to paddle around in the river.
But just as Mu Yang put the canoe into the river, he realized that there were still two oars missing, so he turned around and yelled, "Hand over my oars!"
Wen Yantong endured it for a long time before he stopped dunking on his head, and stood beside him with cold eyes, "I don't think it will be needed."
Mu Yang said, "Why can't I use it? How can I row a boat without a scull?"
Wen Yantong pointed with his chin, "Look for yourself."
When Mu Yang heard this, he turned around abruptly, and saw that the wooden boat that had just been put on the river was now floating towards the river, sinking while floating, and the entire body of the boat was tilted.
Mu Yang screamed, "My child!"
Wen Yantong sighed, "I knew this wooden boat would sink."
Mu Yang wanted to jump into the river to retrieve the wooden boat, but fortunately, Fu Zixian, who was closest to him, grabbed him quickly with his eyes and hands, and comforted him in a low voice, "Mu Xingyi, there are skills in making this boat, not just because it looks like a boat can be a boat Well, it's a good thing you haven't gone up, otherwise you would have sunk in the river right now."
Mu Yang said sadly, "I made this with my own hands..."
Standing above, Chi Jingxi watched the wooden boat sink completely into the river before waving his hands, "Continue on your way."
"But..." Mu Yang still wanted to speak.
Chi Jingxi turned to look at him, "I'll beat you if you talk nonsense."
Mu Yang smacked his lips, thinking that the boat has sunk anyway, and he couldn't get it back, and another beating would be too worthless, so he obediently shut his mouth.
Finally, before leaving, the canoe he insisted on carrying sank in a small wilderness river whose name he didn't even know.
Stopping and stopping on the road, the weather was getting colder and colder, Wen Yantong also put on a thick jacket and a fox fur cloak.
Catch up with the cold snap, many people were sick on the road, Chi Jingxi was afraid that Wen Yantong would catch cold, so he took her horse and let her into the carriage.
When they returned to Chaoge, they happened to catch up with Chaoge's first snow fall.
People in Chaoge always celebrate the first snowfall. On this day, every household lights up red lanterns, and the streets are decorated with lights and lights everywhere.
Wen Yantong took a deep breath, and then opened his eyes to look, his eyes were full of the prosperity and noise of Chaoge.
Finally came back.
It's December, and the atmosphere of the New Year in Chaoge City is very strong. Sometimes the sound of firecrackers can be heard, and every family is thinking about how to celebrate the New Year.
Wen Yantong bid farewell to Chi Jingxi and the others, and went back to his Wen's house first.
The servants in the house got the letter in advance and cleaned up all the things in the house, but no one has lived in it for more than five months, and the house lacks popularity.
When Moli saw Wen Yantong, seeing that she had turned dark and thin, she shed tears immediately.
Wen Yantong smiled and gave her the presents brought back from Yibei, and ordered the servants in the house to hang red lanterns under every eaves, and to go out with couplets and various New Year's goods.
Wen Yantong spent the Chinese New Year at Chaoge last year, and it's the same this year, but this time she doesn't plan to go anywhere else, but stays at home to celebrate the New Year honestly.
Chi Jingxi was busy dealing with the follow-up of Yibei's chaos, and had been busy in the palace for a long time, so she didn't have much time to find out about Yantong.
It is said that Mu Yang was beaten when he went back. After Mu Yuan beat him, he cried a lot. The father and son cried together.
Wen Yantong felt that he could imagine that scene, after all, neither of the father and son had a bright mind.
Fu Zixian did a great job this time, and was awarded a reward by the emperor directly, and became the Minister of the Ministry of War.
Before that, not many people in Chaoge City knew about Fu Zixian, but Fu Mingyi, the eldest son of Fu Sheng. Everyone thought that Fu Zixian was a bastard and was not favored, but this time Fu Sheng made a move to support Fu Zixian, which no one expected.
Fu Mingyi was naturally dissatisfied with this matter, and made a big fuss at home. It is said that Fu Sheng sent him to the old house in Biecheng and grounded him in the end, but Wen Yantong didn't ask what happened.
This is not quite the same as what she read in the book. Fu Zixian in the book is indeed not favored. When he finally seized power, he followed Chi Jingxi and only appeared in the public eye. Fu Zixian is the most important.
His good kung fu is not because it is impossible to develop it since he was a child. From this, it can be seen that among all the children, Fu Sheng liked Fu Zixian from the very beginning.
Regardless of the truth, Wen Yantong didn't have the time to inquire about the secrets of the victim.
When he came back from Yibei, Wen Yantong felt extremely exhausted, he lay on the bed for several days, ate and slept, and regained all the lean flesh he had before.
However, due to lying down too much, there were many aches and pains on the body, and it took several days to recover slowly.
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the year, Wen Yantong was busy with buying things for the New Year every day, he marinated some meat and dried it in the sun, and wanted to wait for the New Year's day to cook with his own hands and cook some delicious food to reward himself.
Just when he was idle at home, suddenly an imperial decree knocked on the door of Wen Zhai.
Wen Yantong was asleep at that time, when he heard Moli's report, he immediately bounced up from the bed, put on his clothes hastily and went out to greet him.
This time it was a young guard who delivered the decree, followed by a row of people carrying rewards. When he saw Wen Yantong, he smiled, "But Wen Tongtong?"
Wen Yantong was a little puzzled by the name, but he still agreed, "It's a folk girl."
The guard unfolded the imperial decree, "Minister Wen Tongtong accepts the decree—"
Wen Yantong knelt down with all the servants behind him.
"The daughter of the people heard that Tongtong was courageous, resourceful, talented and virtuous, and she made great contributions in quelling the chaos in Yibei, defeating the enemy, and curing the plague. Today, I will reward the princess with the title of Ningguang and give her a mansion , a thousand bolts of brocade, a hundred boxes of jade, dozens of rare treasures, this—”
As soon as the imperial decree was finished, all the guards knelt down and saluted together, saying in unison, "I will pay my respects to Princess Ningguang."
Wen Yantong was dumbfounded.
The author has something to say: [After Mu Yang returns home]
Mu Yang (crying): Dad, I wanted to bring my child back to show you, but I sank into the river on the way.
Mu Yuan (frightened, terrified, shattered, and frightened): What! ! !
