Seeing a familiar silhouette suddenly emerge in the darkness, Xiaopang moved a few steps in a panic and exclaimed, "Why are you here?"

"I'm the warden, why can't I come?"

It is indeed embarrassing to be caught red-handed for the big brother's claim, and the little fat hung his head guiltily, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

The warden slowly paced to Luo Ying and said to her coldly: "This person is indeed not your father, I know where your father is, but you have to be mentally prepared." ”

"Is it?" Hearing this, Xiaopang suddenly realized a little bit of something, and he stopped talking.

Luo Ying kept crying bitterly, but she also listened carefully to what he said: "I, the prison warden, was not conscientious enough, your father was replaced on the first day he was arrested, this person is a deaf and mute man who can't speak. I didn't notice it at the time, but later I found that it was getting more and more wrong, so I had to send someone to investigate, and sure enough, on the nearby Xiulan Mountain, I found a white silver fir in the corpse wilderness, which Li Zongming was afraid of leaking the trick and killed him with his own hands. ”

"What about Luoying's third brother, he was also replaced?" Xiaopang couldn't help but ask anxiously.

"No, he was forced to take poison, he was insane, and he had already ignored people. ”

"Alas, if we could have guarded it more tightly that day, the emperor would have been able to open up and redress their grievances and release them!" Fat sighed regretfully, and slammed his fist into his palm.

"Who said no, but I never thought that Li Zongming was such a ruthless person, and he couldn't prevent it in time!"

"What did we do wrong, why did he hate the Bai family so much?" Luo Ying hugged her arms and sat in the corner of the wall and screamed, her voice had become extremely hoarse and desolate from crying.

"Your father did nothing wrong, the wrong way is dangerous in the world, and it is difficult to distinguish between traitors, Li Zongming is just looking for the time to get out, and he happened to see the availability of the Bai family! He, a capable person who mixes with officialdom, has not been crossing the river and demolishing the bridge for a day or two!"

The more he said it was very sympathetic, the more Luo Ying cried.

"Brother, don't say it, Luo Ying can't bear so much anymore!" Xiao Fat was distressed when he saw Luo Ying curled up in the corner.

The warden put his hands behind his back and looked at her thin figure with mixed feelings, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "Now there is another matter, which is considered a pity for me, an outsider, if you want, I will personally take you to visit his resting place." ”

A long, long time before Luo Ying raised his eyes and looked at the unknown place in the distance.

Although Xiulan Mountain is not a famous mountain and river, it is located on the south bank of the Yangtze River, with green mountains and beautiful waters, and it is also a precious and pleasant scenery in the eyes of the people of Yingtianfu. I hope that Master Bai can rest here in peace and can also end up in a clean and peaceful place.

The sky was already inked, and when the three of them rushed to the loess Longtou land in the back mountain, they could still see the Ji Wen on the tombstone with a trace of afterglow.

For now, she was grateful to the prison chief for finding her father's resting place.

After thanking him, he hurriedly rolled up his sleeves to remove the weeds by the grave for his father, the spring grass was deep, Luoying looked at the new young weeds that were vibrant and swaying in the wind, and naturally gave birth to a sense of vicissitudes.

"Wildfires can't be burned, and the spring breeze blows and grows. The poet has already planted a seed of hope for the departed.

Is the life in their rhizomes the life of their father born from the mud? This fragile and strong green friend, can you tell me that my father is doing well under the Nine Springs?

Luo Ying held the cold weeds and kept calling in her heart, Daddy, can you hear it? The spring breeze is blowing, and Luo Ying has come to see you!

The little fat saw Luoying pulling the grass carefully, but she sobbed faintly from time to time. Then you should be in a hurry to pull it out with the past, and by the way, you should also come closer, and say some comforting words. But the warden instantly grabbed the little fat who was about to leave, and said in a low voice: "Let her be quiet by herself, don't say much." ”

Xiao Fat snorted, so he had to retreat back and said, "Brother, there are poplars here, there are cemeteries everywhere, it's better not to stay for a long time, let's persuade her to go back, I'm afraid she will be too sad and will affect her body." ”

"Huh?"

"Luoying is pregnant, and it is Li Abao's child. ”

"But is that the young general Li Abao, who has just emerged in recent years and is deeply loved by the emperor, is Li Zongming's only son?"

"Exactly!"

"What a bad fate! I don't know what kind of creation the two of them will have now! I only heard that General Li is still fighting to defend Anqing, I wonder if he will be able to return safely this time?" When the prison warden heard this, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.

"Brother, I still have something to ask for. Chubby's gaze shone in the dark night.

"What's the matter?"

"I want to take some coiling and go to the north to find Bao!"

"Silly boy, do you know the route taken by the army, the mountain roads over there are like weaving, the water streams are scattered, and you are not afraid that wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards will take your thin little body away?"

"What's there to be afraid of! Ah Bao is my best friend, and so is Luoying, why do I help them, why are I worried so much? Besides, I'm in my early twenties, and it's a good time to go out and explore the landscape, if you're afraid of this, how will you be a man in the future?"

It seems that my younger brother has really grown up, and he already has his own opinions on doing things, and he wants to stick a knife in his friend's ribs.

This is a good thing! The warden curled the corners of his mouth and said happily: "Since you think so, I will arrange for you to make arrangements for the silver and softness, and you can choose the time to set off!"

As he spoke, he patted Chubby's shoulder, and his face showed indescribable relief.

That night, Xiaopang sent Luoying home, and after settling down, he packed his luggage and set off immediately.

It is also fortunate to say that he has the intention of sharing weal and woe, and only walked out of the border of Ying Tianfu that night, and met Ah Bao's team who had returned triumphantly all the way. As soon as Chubby saw this tragic state of depression, he could also imagine what Po had experienced.

It's just that it is even more joyful to see each other as close friends, and Xiaopang decided to hide all the news that spoils the atmosphere in his heart and never say it. After greeting each other, they marched together in the direction of the Forbidden City.

In the past few months, Xiaopang has already accumulated a lot of things he wants to say in his heart, interesting, resentful, current affairs, gossip, especially about Luoying's pregnancy, he really wants to say it now, but Li Zongming is in prison and has committed a capital crime, but Xiaopang does not dare to mention it at all.

"Bao, do you know, what's wrong with Luoying?" a big smile appeared on the chubby face to show Bao.

"What's wrong with her?" Bao immediately looked nervous.

Chubby said in surprise: "She's pregnant!"

"What? are you serious?" Po was surprised and couldn't keep his mouth shut.

"Of course I didn't lie to you! However, when you go back to see her later, you have to pretend that you don't know, and she insists that I keep it a secret from you!"

"This girl. Ah Bao lowered his eyebrows, shook his head and smiled faintly, but he didn't know how happy he was in his heart. I never thought that this day would come so quickly, so suddenly, and it was such an unprecedented feeling to form my own flesh and blood with her.

"By the way, when will you two be able to drink the wedding wine? This is not yet the door, there are children, when the time comes, do you have to do two wedding drinks together to compensate us?"

"Of course, don't say two, I can afford to make up for three or four!" Bao agreed to beat his chest.

"Okay, that's it!"

Chubby has been deliberately avoiding heavy topics, and the two of them talked and laughed all the way, and soon arrived outside the south gate of the majestic and cold Forbidden City.

"I won't send you away! If we get together another day, we will definitely not get drunk and not return!" The evening wind stirred the flags and roared, and Xiaopang raised his voice and smiled at Bao, and the hand on his shoulder refused to let go.

"It will be!" Po smiled happily, and there was an indescribable calmness in his smile.

Chubby didn't want to think about it, so he just smiled silently and watched him move on.

At this time, the Forbidden City Gate slowly opened with a deafening friction sound, and countless rolling orange-yellow light paths shot out from it in an instant.

In the interplay of light and shadow, only a deep and decisive black back remains.
