In the early morning of the second day, Young Master Yu took Shangguan Mo into the carriage under the protection of a group of men, and waited for Mr. Zhuang outside the inn.
After about a stick of incense, Young Master Yu finally looked forward to Mr. Zhuang's figure, but there was another person behind him, squinting to take a closer look, that person was the charming and charming Ying Qi. Even in this raging cold weather, he was still half-open in his dark red clothes, revealing his firm and fair chest.
When he approached, Young Master Yu asked, "Are you going with me?"
Ying Qi squinted, her fingertips curled a strand of hair, which inadvertently brushed across the raised collarbone, seeing Young Master Yu secretly swallowing her saliva.
With a sigh: evildoer.
Ying Qi keenly caught the subtle movements of Yu Gongzi's Adam's apple, hooked the corners of her lips and said, "Not welcome?"
"Where is it?" Yu Gongzi lowered his eyes slightly uncomfortably, I said no, will you go back? "I'm just surprised that Miss Shangguan will send you out. It's really hard to guess." Young Master Yu has personally experienced Yingqi's skills. For Shangguandan, this person can be said It's not too much of a second life.
"My family is faint, and my mind is often twitching, so you don't have to be too surprised." After speaking, Ying Qi tilted her head and looked at Zhuang Wu and said, "Dan Xiao promised to keep Mr. Zhuang's life safe, and he will do what he says. , And I am the only person in the world that she can trust and entrust." After squinting, he said to Young Master Yu: "It's your luck, but you don't have to be grateful, and don't eat this kind of thing."
Young Master Yu: "..." With a black line on your forehead, can you stop your self-righteous assumptions, who should be grateful to Dade? ?
"Then invite the two of you to the carriage at the rear, and we'll set off from here."
After Young Master Yu finished speaking, Mr. Zhuang, who had already approached, handed over a copy of the exercises. Yu Gongzi's eyes paused for a moment, and suddenly there were circles of surprise rays of light. This was Shangguan Mu's [Spring Yin Art]. Sure enough, Shangguan Dan did what he said.
This [Chun Yin Jue] was last night when Shangguan Mu was suppressing his illness for Young Master Yu, Zhuang Wu changed his face to look like Shangguan Mu, swaggered to the [Sihai Escort Bureau], and took it out of the dark grid in an open and honest way. At this moment, after Young Master Yu took the [Chun Yin Jue] from his hand, Zhuang Wu took a step back and went to the carriage behind.
Shangguan Mo sat upright and elegant, but his eyes looked out uncontrollably. At the end of the road, pedestrians kept appearing, but there was no such bright figure as Chunhua.
Seeing this, Young Master Yu paused, but he ruthlessly lowered the car curtain. He knew that Shangguandan would never appear here.
... ... ...
In this place outside the inn, the seasons change, and the winter and spring come, and two and a half years have passed in a flash. At the end of the road, on the Qingshiban Street full of refugees, Yan Xuhuan came with three or four escorts on horseback. Men and women in ragged clothes, young and old, on the road, saw her and moved away from the road far away, so that she could pass freely.
"Miss, who is here, do you want you to pick it up in person?" After more than two years of experience, Ampipi, the stalker, has been promoted to a escort, always following behind Yan Xuhuan.
"The future lord of the world." Yan Xuhuan blinked and said to Ampipi seriously.
When Apipi saw the eldest young lady's stunned appearance, she looked like I believed you, what about the future master? Why don't you just say, it's the emperor's old man who came here
"Don't doubt, be sure to believe it." After saying that, Yan Xuhuan smiled and nodded to An Pippi.
This time, Apipi was even more unconvinced, looked away from his eyes and looked up at the sky.
"Ninth Young Master, look." A slightly sharp female voice sounded.
The man who was called Ninth Young Master was watching two beggars on the street fighting for a nest. Hearing the voice of his entourage, he followed the direction he pointed out.
I saw the refugee pedestrians who were still noisy and messy in front of them, and they retreated to both sides very consciously and admiringly. Looking at the passageway that was cleared away, there were several Jianghu tourists dressed in black and red costumes, and a young woman was at the head.
With the spring flowers as the appearance, the autumn moon as the god, the warm jade as the bones, and the ice and snow as the skin, the misty mist hides the dark eyebrows in the distant mountains, the eyes are clear like water with summer light, and the red lips and white teeth are scattered with poppies. The beauty is like a flower across the clouds, and suddenly comes into view with the spring breeze.
"Cough, cough, ninth son, ninth son wake up." Seeing the demented master's face, the servants immediately lowered their voices when they saw Shangguan girl approaching. "Shangguan girl is here."
"Miss, look, there's another fool!!!" An Pippi stretched out his head and whispered quietly to Yan Xuhuan.
"cousin."
What? The eldest miss calls this fool a cousin, is it really a family
"cousin."
Well, it's really a family, and Apipi is still complaining about the stinky stinking problem at this moment.
"Is this journey okay?" Yan Xuhuan asked casually when he saw that he had traveled a long distance and his eyebrows were tired.
"There are many dangers on the road, and some of the people who are close to you have been damaged. If you don't come here again, if you think about it, even if this life is about to be explained, it can be said that I have lingering fears." Jiu Gongzi's expression returned to normal, Qi Yu is so proud, even a half-blind man would know at a glance that this person is indescribably precious.
"In this case, please follow me back to the house, and use the banquet to catch the wind and shock you." Yan Xuhuan made a gesture of invitation, then turned the horse's head to lead the way, and the escort who followed consciously broke the back.
In the mountains and forests five miles away in [Anxian], a 3,000-strong garrison army was stationed at this time, all of them wielding martial arts, many of whom were masters. This time, the old emperor can let the ninth prince lead the imperial army to come here, and he has already announced to the world that the ninth prince is the future prince. I think that as long as the ninth prince moves the gold and silver property in the Shangguan family's treasury back to Beijing, he will officially go to Zhao to establish the prince. .
A few months ago, the old emperor who was in the palace received a secret letter, and he had the intention to establish a new prince.
Yan Xuhuan didn't care about their rivalry, but he also sighed secretly how many good sons, who did not die under the barbarian iron cavalry, but died in the strife of their own people.
The mountains and rivers are shattered at the end of the day, but their desires grow wild regardless of the situation. Domestic sales, internal friction, and internal security, after a circle of tossing, they finally reach the outside world. It's no wonder that in the original plot, the barbarian iron cavalry swept the north and south of the river, and the army pressed against the capital.
Not long ago, General Xu Da was lured into underestimating the enemy and led his army deep into the enemy's belly. He was captured alive with dumplings wrapped and beheaded in public in front of the two armies. The morale of the army gradually faded, and the barbarian iron cavalry rampaged and divided them. Yu Gongzi gave up the frontier defense outside the fortress and led the army to retreat to the [Barbarian City].
If the [Barbarian City] is destroyed, the country gate will be lost, and if it retreats again, the people of the city will be handed over to the enemy's iron cavalry.
The surrounding vassal states responded to the barbarians outside the Great Wall one after another, constantly attacking and harassing, all wanting to take the opportunity to drink a cup of soup and eat a pot of fat in this chaos.
At night, in the mountains and forests outside [Anxian], the sky was red with torches. From an underground palace with a unique cave, the gold and silver keys opened the two doors one by one, and a box of gold and silver was lifted out from the inside. Jewelry, the amount of which is huge, the treasury of the Sheng Dynasty cannot be compared with it.
Even the ninth prince, who is the prince, can't help but be stunned when he sees these seemingly inexhaustible money. In the past, I deeply felt that I had an endless supply of silver taels, but at this moment, the girl standing in front of me slapped myself invisibly.
What is rich, this is rich, and rich is low-key, rich with connotation.
Possessing huge wealth, but not showing the slightest pampering and superior attitude, but just like an ordinary person, running around the rivers and lakes in the wind and rain, earning some pitiful little money hard.
If it were his brothers and sisters or himself, he would never let these treasures out of sight for nearly two hundred years, and they would have been squandered long ago.
Sure enough, the people of the Shangguan family's direct line could not be compared with these mediocre people. It's no wonder that the three emperors were able to hold back their eager hearts and let the money be buried in the ground until Shangguan Dan handed over the secret letter, and the father emperor sent himself to dig it.
With this money, the Ninth Prince's confidence increased. Whether it was salary, food and grass, refugee resettlement, or after the war, he had a lot of confidence.
Apipi slumped on the ground with his soft legs and watched, but the more he looked at it, the more his heart ached. It was silver, white silver, golden gold, they gave off a strong light and stabbed his eyes.
How could the eldest lady give away so much money for nothing
Is the eldest lady stupid? Is there something wrong with the brain? My God, my heart hurts.
"Miss." An Pippi lay on the ground, holding Yan Xuhuan's calf and shaking violently.
"You... what are you doing?" Yan Xuhuan was taken aback by this guy, kicking her feet and trying to throw off An Pippi's claws.
"Silver!" An Pippi wanted to cry, but no one could understand my heartache.
"Don't be greedy, I'll get a ingot for you in a while."
Who wants your silver, and one ingot, are you embarrassed to say it
"Hurry up, or don't blame me for kicking you."
An Pippi let go of his hands, held his heart painfully, his eyes glued to the boxes and muttered: "Prodigal son, prodigal son..."
This move is a sunset and sunrise, after the Ninth Prince led the 3,000 Royal Forest Army to return to Beijing with a full load. Yan Xuhuan also started to prepare, and wanted to rush to [Barbarian City] to meet her dumb girl.
In the past two and a half years, I have been busy with the business of the escort agency, and supervising the construction of large sheds, providing these displaced people who have fled here, a shelter that can temporarily shelter from the wind and rain, and have no time to go.
The cooperating old man, Gao, was too old and he had enough energy to do many things, so he entrusted the full authority to his granddaughter, Gao Yujun. During the day-to-day tempering, Gao Yujun's own excellent ability made the old man Gao determined, and regardless of everyone's opposition, he handed over the right to be in charge of the family to her, and he half enjoyed the happiness.
Therefore, in the corners of [Anxian], you will occasionally see two beautiful women talking and planning all the affairs of the refugee camp. At this time, the two of them will always be followed by a handsome man, but unfortunately he wears a black and red mask, and others can't see all his face, just judge from those narrow and delicate eyes, he must be like Extraordinary.
... ... ...
A month later, Yan Xuhuan took Nannan, who had already recovered, to the outside of the frightened and desolate [Barbarian City].
"Nannan, you're finally going to see your father, and you're not happy." Yan Xuhuan felt very guilty. After all, he promised Mr. Zhuang to bring Nannan to reunite when he was healed, but it was a delay. Procrastination, during the period, the father and son can only rely on letters to understand each other's status.
"Well, I'm very happy." Nannan nodded, her eyes glowing with joy, and then she rolled her eyes and said softly, "Sister, are you also very happy?"
Yan Xuhuan pursed her lips and chuckled, pinching his tender white cheeks, and said with a stern face, "Sister is not happy at all."
"Huh? How could it be?" Nannan's little face wrinkled into a ball, "Mingming, my sister always draws the portrait of Sister Mo on weekdays. Now, when we come to see her, why are you unhappy?"
"Because, she hasn't come to me automatically after so long."
"Oh." Nan Nan nodded in understanding, but after thinking about it, he said, "But sister, haven't you come to see her all the time?"
"Well, Nannan is right, it's mine, not, I should come to see her often." Yan Xuhuan retracted her hand and led him to the gate of the city.
"Drive, drive..." When Yan Xu was about to enter the city happily, there were shouts and shouts from the side, as well as the deafening sound of hoofs.
Yan Xuhuan looked sideways, the hoofs of the horses raised yellow sand and fluttered in the sky at the source of the sound, and the cavalry regiment composed of 100 people rushed from a distance like a sharp arrow. The black armor and the red cloak became the only scenery that caught Yan Xuhuan's eyes, and the leading man was reflected in his pupils.
It was dark and thin, but more energetic, and the eyes fell like stars falling into the world.
Shangguan Mo saw her one step earlier than Yan Xuhuan, and when he was close to him, he hurriedly restrained the reins, causing the dark horse to neigh and raise its front hooves high.
Seeing this, the soldiers behind him immediately tightened the reins, "YuYuYu...". For a time, the horses roared at the gate of the city, and the yellow sand swept across the sky.
Yan Xuhuan held Nannan and stood there quietly, waiting for her dumb girl to walk towards her.
The moment Shangguan Mo landed on the horse's front hooves, he flew directly from the horse's back to the ground and ran towards Yan Xuhuan.
After a step away, he stopped, and Shangguan Mo's eyes brightened. I want to hug Yan Xuhuan tightly, but the armor is too hard, I'm afraid to slap her, I want to rub her cheeks, and I'm afraid that the dust and blood on my face will stain her... Finally, He had to stretch out his hand and carefully took her other hand, holding it half-truth in the somewhat rough palm, not daring to use force, because he was afraid that she would hurt.
The lips opened and closed silently, just wanting to tell her: I'm back.
