"Little Yangzi, who is it?"

By the time the cripple exited for the second time, the surrounding noise had already dissipated, so the sentence asked by ASUS was extremely clear in the lonely night, and even had a slight sense of oppression.

The cripple Xu had never seen Asus's unpredictable appearance, but at this moment, instead of the nervousness of silence from others, with a little joy of seeing the old man again, he walked by Asus's side one foot deeper and one foot shallow, and pulled a person out with a little resistance.

"That's him, little Yangzi. Back then, his father and mother both went, and he was reprimanded by the village chief for making a mistake, and ran down the mountain in a fit of anger. Speaking of this, the cripple sighed a little, "When we all thought that this child had fallen to his death halfway, after all, the people of Huzui Village, God determined that they couldn't go down the mountain, and no one dared to look for ......."

Sighing, the cripple turned his head, patted the shoulder of the young man who was half a head taller than himself, and said with a smile: "Who knows, this kid is actually a big one, and now he also knows that Yijin has returned to his hometown!

After saying this, the cripple seemed to want to verify it, and leaned closer to the young man, almost to his chin, wanting to take a closer look: "That's right, it's this face, exactly like his father! Xiao Yangzi, isn't it you?! I'm your Uncle Chen! When you were punished by the village chief, I gave you two hot eggs." ”

The old man was chattering, and the soldiers who had drunk the water he had sent just now couldn't help but sweat for him.

I hope that the Second Highness will read that the old man is innocent and ignorant of the old man, and will not care about this person's rudeness and ignorance.

However, ASUS's mind did not focus on this mediocre-looking cripple, but instead moved his inquiring gaze to the young man in front of the cripple.

"What's it called?"

"Gu Yang. ”

The young man's low voice came, but his face was as pale as an ancient well, but if he looked closely, he could actually see that he was forbearing, as if he was suppressing something.

"Is he really?" said ASUS's voice again.

But it was the cripple who answered his words: "I can't be wrong, I can't be wrong! My old Chen never talks nonsense! You see, Xiao Yangzi is surnamed Gu! That's right! I have good eyes!"

There is a joy in the words that is incompatible with the surrounding atmosphere.

"But really?" asked Asus again.

The voice was much softer than before, but the impatience contained in it made everyone else around him shiver.

Only the cripple still rejoices.

"Not really. The young man raised his head with unwillingness in his eyes, "I didn't make a mistake, and I shouldn't have been punished." ”

Everyone didn't expect Gu Yang to say this, even Huashuo and the cripple didn't expect it.

What ASUS didn't expect was that this teenager was not afraid of himself.

And what the cripple didn't expect was that the young man's heart knot was still there.

"Little Yangzi, the village chief has said, if you don't care about you when you're young, punish you just for fear that you will be crooked, Zuo is just a chicken, and if you eat it, you must not tell nonsense. "The cripple is earnest.

"I didn't steal it. I didn't kill the chickens either. I've said it many times, and when I went, there was a lot of chicken feathers over there. That's all I have to say, it's my business to do it or not, believe it or not it's your business. I, Gu Yang, have nothing to do with you anymore. ”

The boy's voice was low, with little emotion.

But the people around him who knew him well understood that this was a sign of his anger.

The more angry, the more unwilling, the calmer.

"This ......"

When the cripple heard this, he suddenly didn't know how to speak.

He hadn't seen this kid for a long time, and he didn't know what kind of character he was now, but it was certainly not the way he would shout out when he was dissatisfied before.

"It's just such a small thing, it's worth risking your life to run down the mountain?" Asus looked at the boy, still distrustful in his eyes.

The boy didn't flinch, let alone shy away - "I didn't want to live." ”

However, he still survived.

God has given me a fate, and since I have survived, I don't want to have anything to do with these people anymore.

If it weren't for the fact that the army had to record the real household registration information, he would not admit that he was from Huzui Mountain.

This time he went up the mountain, if it wasn't for the military order, he wouldn't have wanted to go up the mountain.

"Oh, it's a fiery one. ASUS scoffed.

There was still no emotion on the young man's face, like a piece of wood.

At this time, a trembling voice came from the side, but it was the cripple who shouted: "Son, when will you go to sleep! ”

The sound was hoarse, but it was like a spring that broke through the ice floes on the surface of the water and rushed out of the flowing life.

"Hey!mother!I'll come back when I'm done!" the cripple replied to the old woman who was leaning against the door of the room behind him, and then turned his head to look at the young man, "Do you want to go to see your Chen Po, since you left at the age of twelve, she has been chanting, has been worshipping the Buddha and praying for scriptures, hoping that the Bodhisattva will protect you, it's been eight years......"

However, the boy was indifferent, and still stood wooden.

"Alas...... That's it, that's it......" The cripple sighed, finally gave up the persuasion, turned around, walked a few steps in a hurry, took his barrel, and continued to walk deeper and shallow feet to the door of his house.

"Eight years in the West Mountain Army?" Asus raised an eyebrow.

"Yes. The boy responded.

I don't know if it's because Fang Cai has received a lot of benefits from the villagers, thinking about giving back to this young man from Huzui Village, or because of the comradeship that has been fighting side by side for many years, some veterans next to him also slowly spoke.

"When Gu Yang first came, because of his young age, General Zhou didn't want to come, and he accepted it because he knew that he had no relatives at home and was homeless. ”

"yes, we've watched him grow up. ”

"Every time he went to suppress bandits, he rushed to the front, as if he was dying. ”

"yes, yes, I remember the last ......"

“……”

All of a sudden, everyone spoke.

Hua Shuo looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly smiled and patted the young man's shoulder: "The temperament is quite strong, there is a kind." ”

After that, he turned around and walked in the direction of the entrance of the village, without looking at the young man again.

It's just a dusty mess.

I can't fight these soldiers for this worthless little pawn.

After that, he will start to suppress the bandits, and he will have to let these people carry the knife for him.

Hua Shuo, who turned around, didn't notice that the corner of the lips of the old man in a long shirt surnamed Gu curled in the place behind him.

And the young man named Gu Yang looked at the place where the cripple disappeared after he left, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

The soldiers all thought that although the young man was hard-mouthed, he still had feelings for these villagers.

But I don't know what the boy thinks:

Chen Ping, an old guy, is becoming more and more able to talk nonsense.

It was late, and the crescent moon had already climbed into the middle of the sky.

After the cripple left, except for the two old men, there was no one in the village to come and go.

In order to avoid affecting the rest of others in the village, after asking the place and name of the two old men, Zhou Yang asked the two to go back and let everyone camp outside the village and prepare for repair.

Looking at the soldiers behind her, Mama Mei said to Hua Shuo beside her: "Your Highness, there is a problem with that person." ”

"It's just a small shrimp, and it can't afford any strong winds and waves. ASUS said dismissively.

"A thousand miles of embankment collapsed in an anthill. Your Highness, you can't help but guard against it......" Mama Mei dissuaded again.

"Is Your Highness still afraid that he will shoot me with an arrow?" looked at the bow that the young man was carrying behind his back, Asus sneered.

No matter what Zhou Yang wanted to do when he buried such a chess piece, whether it caused his anger, or what the reason was, as long as Guo Ping's previous everything was arranged according to his own requirements, then he was not afraid of anyone, whether it was this young man or Zhou Yang.

These people, he didn't pay attention to at all.

Mama Mei wanted to say something more, but when she saw Hua Shuo's expression, she swallowed it alive and turned into a sentence, "That Mama will go to rest first, and Your Highness will go to bed as soon as possible." ”

Huashuo was irritable in his heart, and he wished that Mama Mei would leave quickly, so when he heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand.

Although Mama Mei retreated, she was still not at ease, so she called a person who was busy setting up a tent next to Huashuo and whispered something.

When Luan Ge and Zhao Yi arrived, they were bumping into this scene.

Looking at the only woman in the crowd from a distance, she turned sideways to Zhao Yi: "Ah, is that person the woman next to Concubine Su?"

"It's her. Zhao Yi nodded.

Although he is not as good as Luan Ge's farsighted eyesight, the place where Mama Mei is is facing the fire that has been erected, so the faces of the people around him are illuminated clearly, and Zhao Yi can recognize it at a glance.

At this moment, Mama Mei was instructing the guards beside Hua Shuo to pay attention to the young man named Gu Yang, and was talking, but suddenly stopped and looked not far away.

It was pitch black, there was no fire, and there was no human figure, and from a distance, there were large fields, and even the paths dotted between them were empty by the moonlight.

Mama Mei couldn't help frowning.

"Mama, what's wrong?"

The guard, who was listening to her, saw her stop suddenly, and suddenly looked to the side, and couldn't help asking.

"How do I think there's someone over there. Mama Mei thought for a moment, but still opened her mouth.

"Is there a villager who hasn't rested yet?" the guard asked, remembering the enthusiastic people, is this time to deliver quilts?

"The village is over there, and it's not from this side that they're coming out. Mama Mei glanced at the guard and thought he was stupid.

The guard was about to speak, but Mama Mei seemed to know what he was thinking, and blocked him with words: "It won't be a villager who just came back from the field, the sun has been going down for so long, and it makes no sense to come back now." ”

"The little man went and looked. The guard heard the sound and walked in the direction that Mama Mei pointed out.

Looking at the guard's distant back, Mama Mei sighed.

Not to mention how Zhou Yang's people are, it is because the master is there, and the guards of the prince's mansion who have not benefited from these villagers have already begun to speak to them.

Coming to Huzui Mountain, can His Highness really get what he wants?

The guard returned quickly, and sure enough, he replied that there was no problem.

"I guess I was mistaken. Mama Mei nodded, and glanced in that direction again.

She clearly felt that there were people in that direction.

"It's not clear whether the people on the mountain are friends or enemies, be careful at night, even if it's the people on General Zhou's side, you must not be negligent, everything is important for the safety of Your Highness. ”

After saying this, and repeatedly asked, Mama Mei entered her account.

Watching her figure disappear, two heads appeared in the place where the guards had checked.

"This Mama Mei is really alert. Zhao Yi patted his chest and sighed.

Su Guifei is really surrounded by everyone, who was called a ghost before, and now there is a woman who is chattering with gods.

"Maybe it's a woman's intuition. Luan Ge narrowed his eyes.

The woman is in the light, they are in the dark, and they can't hear what the woman and the guard whispered here, there is no reason for this person to hear himself and Zhao Yi's voice, let alone see them hiding in the dark.

"This woman is a little familiar. ”

Thinking back on Mama Mei's appearance, Luan Ge spoke out with a little hesitation.

"Familiar?how could it be?" Zhao Yi was a little surprised, "You only came to the Jin Kingdom a few days ago, but this Mama Mei is a mama in the palace, you haven't been in the palace, how can you be familiar with her?"

Zhao Yi secretly thought that he could recognize Mama Mei because he often entered the palace.

But then again, I don't know what's going on this year, as if I haven't seen this grandma much, but I'm afraid it's just a coincidence.

Zhao Yi didn't know that the reason why he couldn't see Mama Mei was because she wasn't in the palace at all, but was sent out by Su Yueling to do other things.

Of course, that's an afterthought.

But after hearing Zhao Yi's question, Luan Ge said: "I didn't see it this year, but I should have seen it." ”

In the first half of this year, she has been staying in the Chu Palace, and she still remembers what the mothers-in-law in the palace look like.

This Mama Mei is very special.

The bearing on that body alone is not comparable to those grandmothers and maids in the Chu Palace.

At first glance, she doesn't look like a servant, but like a master.

But no matter how you think about it, I still can't think of such a character.

After all, this Mama Mei has been by Concubine Su's side for many years, if she is really a master of life or something, how can she be in the Jin Kingdom for many years?

In this way, it must have been at least ten years ago......

More than ten years ago......

Luan Ge seemed to have a scene in front of her eyes that suddenly crossed by, like thunder falling from the sky, falling straight above her head, awakening a person's memory in her mind.

Fourteen years ago......

At that time, there was no Chu Luange, she was still Qi Mingluo.

At that time, as the eldest princess of the Qi Kingdom, she was going to marry Yan Proton Luo Tian, who had been a proton in the Qi Kingdom for many years.

Even though Yan Guo sent protons to Qi back then, there were no fewer specifications that he should have as a prince.

Whether it's the rules or the attendants around you or the servants and maids.

Among them, including Luo Tian's aunt, who was also the powerful big girl by his mother's side back then.

Yuan Mei.

It was originally a down-and-out daughter, but later because of the family's downfall, she had to send her daughter to the palace draft.

Because of the difficulties at home, it was really impossible to make up the dots, so Yuan Mei finally became a Huanyi palace maid in the Huanyi Bureau, or later because of the time when she sent the dried clothes to Luo Tian's mother, she got blue eyes because of her extraordinary bearing, and then because of her moderation, she sat on the position of the big girl step by step.

Later, because Concubine Yan was not worried about Luo Tian in other countries, she was worried that he would be wronged, so Yuan Mei followed Luo Tian to Qi Kingdom.

The past has long since turned into smoke, but when I think of everything at the beginning, I still remember it vividly.

If it weren't for the ten years of Fu Xiding, these past events became her support through the dark suffering, and she would not remember it so unforgettable.

When I saw Mama Mei, I wouldn't feel so familiar.

Even though the years have left too many traces on her, Luan Ge still clearly recognizes Mama Mei.

No, it's Yuan Mei.
