The next day, when a few faint rays of morning light slowly broke through the mist, and the sound of cicadas chirping gradually became a tune, it was the beginning of an ordinary day in the mountains.

It's just that the door of the room on the east side of the village is closed today, and there are two more guards outside. Others saw it by chance, and they couldn't help but have a little speculation in their hearts. The second boss deliberately reminded everyone not to meddle in their affairs and cause trouble. The brothers in the stockade also saw each other, and they were silent, and they never dared to mention these things again.

By noon, the sun was getting stronger. The early summer has arrived, the summer in the mountains is strong, and the open space in the back mountain is even more scorching by the sun. Although the men who practiced below were all sweating, no one complained. It's just that if there is a big boss on the side, they can't wait to take off their clothes and go into battle shirtless.

"Dad, have you and Your Highness been in this mountain these days?"

In the distance, Ye Ziliang frowned, looked at the people in the training camp, and nodded.

At the beginning, the two fled in a hurry, and Gao Xun was still in a coma, unable to move, and it was difficult to go far. They did not stay away from Yongzhou, but went out of the city first and hid on Tianyin Mountain.

In the Immortal Valley of Tianyin Mountain, Mr. Ye and his junior sister, who have disappeared from the rivers and lakes for a long time, have lived here for a long time.

Due to the inconvenience of his identity, during the period of recuperation in the valley, His Royal Highness's body was personally taken care of by his uncle. And after His Royal Highness woke up, although he didn't mention the past, he asked him to secretly investigate the death of Gao Zheng that year.

A few days later, on the outskirts of the southern forest of Yongzhou City, he accidentally found Liu Chang who was dying.

This little doctor who used to be in the Tai Hospital, Ye Ziliang was particularly impressed by his appearance as a roe deer. Now that he was covered in blood, his hands and feet were ruined, and if he hadn't been noticed by the painful groans he had been passing by, he would have been hard to identify.

When the emperor was killed, he was no longer in the palace, but Liu Chang, who was also a person from the Tai Hospital, might know something.

Ye Ziliang faced him, and as soon as he mentioned the word "Lu Liren", the man seemed to have been greatly stimulated, intermittently, and unclearly revealed what he had done in the past.

Ye Ziliang listened like this, and when he saw his empty eyes and blurred flesh and blood, he sank his heart. He didn't dare to rashly bring outsiders back to the mountains, and after the night was getting darker, he wandered around the city and outside the city for a long time before he went back to tell Gao Xun truthfully one by one.

Later, a war broke out in the north, and His Royal Highness was not fully injured and insisted on going to Qizhou.

With the help of the human/leather mask made by Mr. Ye, the two hid all the way, and under the cover of the war, they finally found this temporary place to live.

As for whether what Liu Chang said was true or false, whether His Highness believed it or not, she didn't let herself go to investigate later, so it was unknown.

Only this way, His Royal Highness's increasingly deep thoughts, he also saw it in his eyes. Ye Ziliang came back to his senses, looked at his daughter beside him, sighed, and said:

"Ah Ying, in the future, this cottage, the brothers in this village, will be handed over to you and Sima Jing."

"Then you and Your Highness—"

He raised his eyes to the neatly arranged figure in the distance. When there is no way out, this is hard work, and Xu is also the only turning point.

"Now that the mountains and rivers are broken and the sea is flying, Your Highness, you can no longer hide in the mountains like this."

Wherever their eyes fell, the people in the training camp no longer only punched and made their efforts as before. There was a shortage of horses in the village, so Gao Xun asked Jing Yuan to make a wooden gun, and Sima Jing personally practiced and supervised every day, training everyone to whip knives, shoot on foot, and occupy the ranks of the array.

Gao Xun often stood aside to monitor, and at this moment she turned her head and inadvertently saw a pair of faintly shining eyes on the side.

"Want to learn?" Gao Xun half-squatted down beside her and asked with a smile.

The people around him nodded in response, but they seemed to come back to their senses, and slowly added a little shyness, and slowly lowered their shoulders.

Gao Xun looked away in understanding, and his voice was low: "Have you ever regretted the injury on your leg?" ”

"Regrets?" Jing Yuan raised his head and shook his head in a daze, "I never thought about it." ”

Gao Xun's eyebrows moved slightly, as if a drop of ink was dotted, and the color of his eyes became darker.

She didn't answer anymore, glanced at the figure in the distance, changed her tone, and said lightly: "Jing Yuan, you are not from the Yuan Kingdom. ”

She tilted her head, met the puzzled gaze on the side, and raised her eyebrows:

"Yuan is the name of the country, and even if it is the Son of Heaven since ancient times, he will not take this country name into the name."

Jing Yuan's eyes widened slightly, and he shook his head again:

"I, I am indeed a person of Dayuan, but I can't read, this name, this name, was given to me by someone else later."

She stroked her hands helplessly, looked at Gao Xun, and showed a little anxiety in her shock:

"Big boss, I don't know if there is such a statement, so am I, should I change my name?"

"What's the change," Gao Xun shook his head and sneered, "Now that the capital of the country is dead, how can there be those rules." ”

She lowered her face, her thin lips pursed slightly, and she seemed to have a bit of self-irony in her pretense of calmness.

In the evening, when the twilight was getting thicker, Gao Xun knocked on the door of the house on the west side with a bowl.

"Your Highness."

Song Yuyan opened the door and called softly. His eyes fell on the bowl of turbid soup in her hand, and she froze, paused, and still welcomed the person outside into the room.

Gao Xun entered the door and glanced at the small figure on the wooden couch by the window, and moved his throat: "This medicine, feed him when he wakes up." ”

She spoke to the silent person in front of her, but her tone was inexplicably a little stiff.

After taking Lu Cassia Ming away yesterday, this kid didn't cry or make trouble, but only stared at himself with stubborn eyes. Every time she touched the pair of eyes that were somewhat similar to the man, she couldn't help but feel a fire in her heart, and simply stunned him and sent him to this room temporarily.

As the words fell, she looked away. As if hiding a little weakness, he suddenly put down the things in his hand, and wanted to leave without waiting for a response.

"Your Highness, wait a minute." The person next to her suddenly took her hand and called her softly.

Gao Xun raised his eyes suspiciously, but still nodded, and sat down on the wooden bench. Then he saw her turn and go to the edge of the collapse, and bring a piece of clothing.

"I've re-sewed this shirt for you."

Song Yuyan half-lifted her shirt, and her gaze slowly fell on Gao Xun. Her Royal Highness has never cared about this, and at this moment she is wearing these ragged robes, and I am afraid that she doesn't know it, she paused, and said softly:

"Why don't you put this one on first?"

"Ah Xun, try to change it?"

Gao Xun remembered the night in Jiangzhou, Yiren smiled lightly, red makeup in front of the mirror, and his ears and temples were grinding, lingering a few degrees.

"No," she abruptly got up, "no. ”

She half-stepped back, leaving her hands frozen in the air and her brows lowered for a moment.

The person in front of her was not annoyed, but silently put away her clothes, Gao Xun didn't notice the sourness that flashed, looked at her eyebrows that had never been opened, and only said that she still had concerns in her heart:

"Yu Yan, don't worry, I'll take you down the mountain in a few days to see what's going on outside."

Seeing that she nodded silently, she moved her lips, and unnaturally lowered her gaze to other places, and then said slightly: "If you are idle in the room tomorrow, you can also go to the back mountain with us, where there are many people, but it is more lively." When I'm free, I'll take you around this hill again. ”

She was afraid that the person in front of her would take her own clothes and sew them again, and when she thought of this, she couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart. It would be good if she could walk in this mountain from time to time, but Gao Xun was also worried about her thin body, and she might not be able to stand the scorching sun.

Gao Yan once didn't like the women in the mansion to go out, but after Song Yuyan married into the Yanwang Mansion, she never even went to Kyoto a few times. Now that the person in front of her said this, she felt a little happy in her heart, and responded softly:

"Okay."

Gao Xun nodded, and when he saw that the night was getting darker outside, he didn't want to stay in the house any longer, and when he wanted to go out, he heard the person behind him call urgently:

"Your Highness!"

The thin back in front of her was stretched by the candlelight in the room, Song Yuyan's eyes flickered, her long eyelashes drooped slightly, and she finally spit out softly:

"The source is clear, good and evil are rewarded, don't lose yourself."

There is no reward for good and evil.

Gao Xun sneered in his heart, touched the warm gaze behind him, but his voice gradually lowered:

"I understand."

The night was deeper, and the footsteps in the porch gradually faded away, and the whole cottage seemed to fall into silence again.

"Squeak-"

The door opened slightly, and the candlelight in the room overflowed, bringing a hazy light to half of the courtyard in front of it.

"It seems that Lu Baisang is telling the truth this time, and the queen mother should already know the truth."

At the back of the courtyard, the two leaned against a wooden railing. Gao Xun half-tilted his head, staring intently at a crescent moon in mid-air, but he was silent.

When the two met that day, I looked at her appearance of wanting to speak several times and stopped, and my heart was already determined. Even so, although she has pity for her past, because of her various identities with her, there is still an indescribable estrangement in her heart.

If he hadn't led his troops out to fight back then, would he be able to dissolve the ice and start all over again?

She shook her head, laughing at her whimsical designation.

"I don't know what she's trying to do this?"

Gao Xun retracted his thoughts and thought of the man, but suddenly said coldly, "Who knows what kind of heart she has." ”

"Your Highness, after all, you are still too soft-hearted." Ye Ziliang sighed in his heart and said slowly: "If it becomes a big thing, you have to learn to be ruthless." ”

Gao Xun lowered his eyebrows and raised his eyes as if he didn't care: "You can also see that it is not me who is soft-hearted today." ”

In the courtyard, a slender silhouette swayed. Leaning over and raising his hand, the pitch-black liquid in the bowl slowly flowed down the mouth and poured into the moistened soil.

"It's a pity, I wasted the old man's medicine. Don't look at this kind of thing that costs people's lives, but it also costs a lot of silver taels, which is worth a jar of good wine at the bottom of the mountain. Ye Ziliang shook his head and sighed: "Your Highness, this place is no better than the palace, now that life in the mountains is tight, there are more and more people in the village, and you are so extravagant—"

Gao Xun listened to his chatter, turned his gaze away, and suddenly spoke again: "What's going on outside?" ”

"Uweichi has returned to the Khanate, and Qin Li is in charge. Since this person came to power, he has become more and more tyrannical, and those people outside may not have a good time. ”

Ye Ziliang's thick palm slowly stroked the wooden bar in front of him, and said in a deep voice:

"Counting it up, in the past two days, it may be time for us to leave."

Gao Xun nodded and said no more.

"Where does Your Highness plan to go first?"

She raised her eyes, reflecting the chaotic moonlight, but her gaze became sharper and sharper:

"Go south, Jiangzhou."
