What is Yuan Zhize going to give me? I turned around again and turned back in confusion. Yuan Zhize got up and took out two packages from the cabinet behind him and put them on the table. "These two burdens should be yours, right?"

I was shocked, oh my God, isn't this the burden that Yuan Zhao and I lost on the road? I hurriedly stepped forward to confirm, yes, these two packages are ours, there are some scattered silver taels in them, and Yuan Zhao and I have changed clothes. These things were already left on the road by us when we escaped, how could they be here with Yuan Zhize now?

"These things were found by the nearby mountain people when they went up the mountain to find the whereabouts of your senior brother, and it is said that there are two dead horses with their throats cut..." Every time I think of Yuan Zhao, my eyes feel like they have been burned by fire, and they are hot.

"You check first to see if anything is missing. Yuan Zhize patted me on the shoulder and whispered. With tears in my eyes, I checked all the belongings, the silver, the clothes, and even the Shoushan stone I bought for the old lady.

Seeing me nodding, Yuan Zhize let out a long sigh of relief: "It's good that I didn't lose it, I've always been worried that those mountain people will see the money and secretly leave something." "Lord Wang, is there any news of my senior brother?" I asked tremblingly, holding back my sadness.

In fact, this sentence I want to ask every time I see Yuan Zhize, but I don't dare to ask, in addition to worrying about the reasons that affect his handling of military affairs, I have always fantasized about the day when I and Yuan Zhao will reunite, although I know that this probability is very small, but how much I hope that Yuan Zhao suddenly appears in front of me, as if nothing has happened. I was afraid to hear from him, I was afraid that the harsh reality would shatter this dream I had woven completely.

"The mountain people have searched all the surrounding places, and the sentry battalion has sent cavalry to search for them, but to no avail. Yuan Zhize sighed and said slowly. "No... My senior brother is not dead, he must still be alive, he must be alive..."I muttered, I felt as if I was numb, and my mind was full of Yuan Zhao's shadow.

"No, you're lying, my brother isn't dead! We said we were going to live, we said we were going to live, we said we were okay..." I couldn't hold back my grief anymore, and let tears pour down my eyes.

Seeing that my emotions were a little out of control, Yuan Zhize grabbed my shoulders and shouted to me: "Xiaoxiao, you calm down first, listen to me first, listen to me first... Don't cry!" Yuan Zhize's roar stopped my convulsions, and I held back my tears and looked directly at the man in front of me. "Xiaoxiao, you believe me, your senior brother is indeed not dead!" Yuan Zhize said word by word with a firm gaze.

"Really? You know my brother's whereabouts, right?" Yuan Zhize's words rekindled hope in my heart, but disappointingly, Yuan Zhize did not say what I wanted him to say, but shook his head slightly. "I see, you're just comforting me, aren't you?" I asked him with a wry smile.

"That's not right!" Yuan Zhize denied: "Do you think, since you haven't found your senior brother's body, it means that he still has hope of being alive, right?" "That's right, Yuan Zhao is not necessarily dead, maybe he is still alive, why am I so stupid, as soon as I came up, I thought that he must have said goodbye to this world?"

I stopped making a big noise, Yuan Zhize leaned over, held my hand and said sincerely: "Maybe he was just injured and is now hiding in a secluded place to heal, maybe he thought you had returned to Chang'an, so he bypassed Hanzhong and is now on his way to Chang'an, maybe he just wants to joke with you, he is by your side, maybe you wake up tomorrow morning, you will find him sitting in front of you..."

Yes, it would be nice if it was really like what he said, I fantasized about the scene of waking up tomorrow morning to find Yuan Zhao standing in front of my bed, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of my mouth. "That's right. Yuan Zhize stood up and said: "Never give up lightly, until the last moment, you can't give up hope!" Looking at Yuan Zhize's resolute eyes, I felt that the anxiety in my heart had been wiped out in an instant, and I added a bit of calmness, Yuan Zhao, no matter where you are now, you must come on! I prayed silently in my heart.

"Yo, why did I prepare so much food, I can't eat so much!" Yuan Zhize opened the lid of the tray, a large box of delicate snacks came into my eyes, seeing Yuan Zhize's sad look, I wiped my tears and said with a smile: "It may be a supper prepared for you and His Royal Highness the King of Chengdu." Yuan Zhize nodded thoughtfully and said, "That kid Zhiyu drank too much at noon today, and he didn't rest in the afternoon, and now he has already gone to sleep, so what should I do?"

Yuan Zhize turned his head to look at me as he spoke, I smiled and shrugged helplessly. "If you don't eat with me, it's as if the king invited you to eat. Yuan Zhize came up with a proposal. "Then how can I, a flat-headed commoner, be on an equal footing with the prince? Yuan Zhize waved his hand and said: "It just so happens that I am also bored, seeing that you are very energetic, just talk to me, otherwise I am worried that I will fall asleep." ”

Yuan Zhize said and sat back in his original position, looking at me happily, he was very warm, and I also wanted to see how he handled official business, so I didn't shirk it anymore, he only ate a few pieces, then took a delicate piece of yellow paper from the cabinet and began to write something. I was bored, so I pulled one out of the pile of papers on the table, held it in my hand, and saw that it seemed to have some names recorded, and then a bunch of numbers in capital letters.

"Lord Wang, what is recorded on this?" I couldn't understand the piece of paper in front of me, so I asked Yuan Zhize for advice. "This is the loss of the military horses of the Southern Barbarian Roads this time. Yuan Zhize replied without raising his head. "Then what are you doing here, statistics?" I glanced at the yellow paper written by Yuan Zhize, as if it was not counting the number of casualties, but as if he was writing an article.

"Wouldn't that be much easier, just find someone to add up the numbers at will. "Then you're in...""I'm writing a chapter for the emperor, reporting on the battle situation, and by the way, summarizing the battle situation." I nodded in understanding. "No, isn't it the king of Chengdu who led the expedition this time? Why didn't he write it?" I suddenly felt that something was wrong, why wasn't it the king of Chengdu who wrote it?

"He?" Yuan Zhize raised his head, with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "What do you think he will write if he is allowed to write?" I thought about it, and it is estimated that the stunned king of Chengdu will definitely not be able to write anything good, and when I think of this, I can't help but laugh out loud.

Yuan Zhize guessed through my thoughts, lowered his voice and jokingly said: "If my father read his summary, it would be strange if he didn't die of anger." "I was shocked, how could such a joke be made, maybe it could be exchanged for a charge of punishing the Nine Clans, so although Yuan Zhize smiled happily, I still didn't dare to echo it.
