Although I don't know what deal was reached between my grandmother and Xiao Hong, Man Yun dared to guarantee that Xiao Rui and the others definitely didn't know what Xiao Hong did in advance.

Just looking at Xiao Tan's coffin face as if she was painted with black paint after receiving the letter, you can know the cold autumn in one leaf.

And now that she is about to leave Luojing, Mrs. Xu gathered her daughters-in-law to arrange things, and when it came to the arrangement of the six rooms, she couldn't help but secretly stab Xiao Hong in front of people, and generously sent Yandi to his wife's grandfather's house.

After returning from Wulianghai, Zhou Manyun never got along alone with her mother-in-law again. Mrs. Xu, who knows well, is also guarding against her, and every time she is summoned, she will be surrounded by a bunch of daughters-in-law in the open, and there will be a group of secret guards in secret.

In the eyes of others, most of the fault for the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law becoming cold is still on Man Yun, if she hadn't left home ignorantly and followed Xiao Hong north, and with the support of her mother's family, Naqiao would not have been beaten by Mrs. Xu.

Man Yun occasionally thinks that if Xiao Hong is simply an unknown concubine in the Nuanlian Courtyard or even a concubine born in the outer room, she can also directly provoke her husband to ignore his mother-in-law, how far can she hide. It's a pity that all this can only be thought about enjoyable.

What if this is already the case?

Zhou Manyun could only pretend to be deaf and dumb and be a fool, and laughed at any cold words that passed his ears.

"Xiaoliu is busy with official business in Youzhou, and there is no one around to take care of him...... It would be good if Hong'er could accept a noble girl from Youzhou as a concubine, but it's a pity that ......", Mrs. Xu sighed regretfully, her eyes turned on Man Yun's body with light resentment, and she wanted to speak as if she had been wronged by her daughter-in-law.

Accepting concubines and maids is really common in the Xiao family. From Xiao Ze to Xiao Yu, who just got married a few years ago, they are all enjoying the blessings of Qi people. A few years ago, Jing Guogong personally promised his daughters-in-law, and they would be rewarded for adding to each room, no matter if they had one or the other. In this way, the women in the backyard and the children they gave birth to are both property added to their own nursery. So most of the concubines still feel Manyun's stubbornness.

Qin, who is the eldest sister-in-law, kindly tugged Man Yun and asked her to come forward and say a few good words.

Zhou Manyun smiled shyly, but he didn't shake his body and didn't move his feet.

"Forget it!" , Mrs. Xu sighed in annoyance. said: "Little sixth daughter-in-law, this time you also have to go to Beijing with your mother, it's inconvenient." It's better for my mother to send someone to send Jin He and Yuwan to Xiaoliu to Youzhou! Jin He and Yu Wan are the beauties that Mrs. Xu gave them the previous time, and Xiao Hong left them before he had time to enjoy them.

"Mother! It's better for the daughter-in-law to go to Youzhou to serve her husband! Anyway, she was a shameless jealous woman who had already done it, Zhou Manyun simply roared out in front of the concubines.

"Man Yun, don't worry!" , Mrs. Xu said with a gentle smile. "You don't want those cheap maids to give birth to a concubine for Hong'er before you, my mother understands. Before sending them to Youzhou, you can pour them decoction as you like. ”

Fill the medicine as I wish, temporary or permanent? As long as Xiao Hong has no children in the future, is it a disaster caused by the jealousy of his daughter-in-law?

Man Yun couldn't help but sneer in his heart. She is very strange about Mrs. Xu's attitude now, looking at this mother-in-law's posture is not to prevent her from having children, but to not want Xiao Hong to have children at all.

"Man Yun, don't think about running to Youzhou on your own in private. My mother has already told you several times. If you make a fork in the road, maybe Xiaoliu will misunderstand. ”

This has been emphasized many times. Or rather, threats many times. If you dare to leave in private, forget it, your daughter-in-law eloped with someone.

This is not only Manyun, but all the concubines here can understand it. is kind-hearted, and he has also persuaded Man Yun in private, it is better to wait for Xiao Hong to send someone to pick him up. After all, women must always have an upright reason to go out in these years, especially when they are daughters-in-law, they must be more cautious.

Just last time. If Man Yun hadn't led troops to rescue Yunzhou City on his return trip, maybe Mrs. Xu would have directly counted her eloping with her cousin Du Huan all the way.

Du Huan had left Yunzhou before the Chinese New Year, and at that time he said that he would urge Xiao Hong to help her wife who was imprisoned as soon as possible, but this was delayed for three months as soon as possible.

However, it has finally arrived. Man Yun, who knows in his heart, is not in a hurry. Only bowed down to the mother-in-law Yingying, who was on the top, and a few words were turned over and over with pear blossom tears in her mouth, secretly waiting for the sound of coming in from outside.

Sure enough, halfway through the grievances of Man Yun singing and begging each other, Xiao Tan handed in the news in the outer courtyard.

Xiao Hong brought a handwritten letter from Youzhou to Lu Harrier. said that he was wounded in the war and was seriously ill, so he begged his mother to allow his daughter-in-law Manyun to go north to serve the sick.

The pear blossom rain suddenly poured out, and Zhou Manyun fell to the ground, his fragrant shoulders trembling gently with the cry, looking pitiful. In fact, Man Yun secretly met Uncle Lu who sneaked into the city last night, and asked him to send the letter in front of the concubines, purely deliberately to get a satisfactory result in front of everyone.

"Xiao Hong wants you to go...... You can go!", Mrs. Xu's sigh revealed her resentment towards her son.

The simple convoy to Youzhou to the north set off two days earlier than the large number of people and horses who went to Luojing, although they still had to spare the two women who were shoehorned in, but Man Yun still hid the flowers that bloomed in his heart and embarked on the trip.

If it weren't for the illness mentioned in Xiao Hong's letter, she would have to walk through the streets and alleys laughing.

On the first day of April, the convoy arrived in Xingxian on the border of Yunzhou.

"The scenery of Yongjie Temple in Julan Mountain in Xingxian County is unique, and the evening bell of Lanshan that rings when the moon rises is a must. Today is the New Year's Day, and since the sixth grandmother has arrived, it is better to go and see it! Lu Harrier, who was fighting the outpost all the way, talked to a strong man dressed as a local mountain man in front of him for a while, and turned the horse's head to repay Zhou Manyun very seriously.

The day is approaching dusk, and at this time, if you can't go up the mountain, you have to live in the monk's temple?

Man Yun looked at Xingxian County, which was already in sight, and was suspicious, but then carefully looked at Lu Harrier's tense black face, and agreed with kindness. The person who spoke to Lu Harrier was obviously supposed to stay in the local army scout, and he was unwilling to let her enter the city, probably for his own reasons.

The mountain temple is quiet and elegant, and the guest house is clean and bright, but in this way, Lu Harrier's eagle eye still picked out many faults at once, pointing east and west, making Xiaoqiao and others turn around in front of and behind the house.

The bored Zhou Manyun was led by Lu Harrier, who had made a cameo appearance as a housekeeper, to see the scene, but he didn't go far. The one-armed uncle disappeared at the bend of the trail.

"Really, I'm a fool who can't even know the way back?" , Zhou Manyun sighed lightly and raised his arms towards the tall poplar tree on the side of the road, "Come down!" ”

A purple-black shadow was like lightning, and it rushed into her arms in one fell swoop, making Man Yun's arm sink.

"Amethyst is fat!". Also, it killed in the monastery! Glancing at the little blood stains and bird feathers still on the corner of the mink's mouth, Zhou Manyun smiled sweetly and bent his eyebrows.

If the amethyst is there, that person should be there. At the beginning, Amethyst was a member of the army, so that she could protect Xiao Hong from being poisoned even if she was not around.

The amethyst in his arms was heavier than before, his whole body was fatter, and his fur was as smooth as a mirror, which showed that the extensive military camp life was much more comfortable than the confined court.

"Over there?" Out of the corner of Man Yun's eyes, he glanced at a corner of the eaves that had appeared not far away. smiled and asked the little thing in his arms, and happily spread his hands.

Amethyst wagged her furry tail and ran forward, a new silver thread wrapped around her neck.

Approaching the door, the little mink who was only willing to lead the way ran to the roof, and consciously performed the duty of vigilance, and by the way, he said goodbye to the silver that he had not seen for a long time.

The light and shadow of the dark room illuminated by the setting sun were scattered, and the open pane dragged out a strip of bright color diagonally across the back of the man sitting cross-legged on the futon on the front wall.

Even if you can hear the movement in the room, the person who sits firmly and participates in meditation still does not move. The wide gray monk's robe is cold, if it weren't for the black hair that is full of vitality like a waterfall. But it is very much like the Taoist monk with a broken wall map on the front.

"Pretending to be a ghost!" , Zhou Manyun, who couldn't hold back the smile at the corner of his mouth, couldn't help but snort.

After spitting out a few words, she closed the door of the room, trotted behind the man with her skirt, and rested a jade hand on his shoulder affectionately.

A large hand quickly clasped his wrist and tugged at his elbow. Man Yun took advantage of the situation and the soft body that had fallen across the young man's knees.

His eyes sparkled with starlight. Xiao Hong lovingly reached out and stroked his wife's red cheeks, and asked with a smile: "Is the female bodhisattva a special monk who has come to turn a poor monk?" ”

"Phew! Garrulous! A pair of plain hands raised, left and right bows, up and down. twisted his face and chest angrily, "Xiao Xiaoliu! If you really want to be a monk, I promise! ”

Reaching out to twist it is fake, and with just one hand, you can feel that he is different from the fattened amethyst, but it is genuinely reduced.

The tip of Zhou Manyun's nose was slightly sour, and the tears in his eyes began to flash uncontrollably.

"Manyun! I really want you to live! There are so many things I can't think of! I'm so worried that I'm about to lose my hair. Sighing deeply, Xiao Hong, who deliberately tightened his eyebrows, flattened his legs and let his wife sit firmly in his arms.

The sadness of reuniting after a long absence, as well as Zhou Manyun's tears, he doesn't like them all.

Sure enough, the emotion on Zhou Manyun's face quickly turned into confused concern in his complaint.

Like a puppy, he rubbed his cheek against Man Yun's shoulder and neck, and the man who had already led the three armies alone said childishly: "Grandma bullied me!" The mastiff who used me as a shepherd ran around! She eats meat and only gnaws bones for me. ”

Zhou Manyun laughed out loud, "Are you saying that you just decided on Yanzhou that day, and your grandmother took you to Youzhou again?" ”

Today, the reason why Xiao Hong took the initiative to attack the pseudo-Qi is well known. At that time, Mrs. Mo Zhi received from her allies that the lord of Hanguo was critically ill and had dropped out of the dynasty for several months, and that the general of the country had no time to go south to inform Xiao Hong, so that he made up his mind and pursued Youzhou with victory.

Xiao Hong nodded seriously.

"Xiao Hong! Counting the merits of the war, you let the pseudo-Qi lose the country, it's much better than just staying in Yanzhou! ”

"But with my father, I am victorious and defeated! Grandma said that the opportunity to destroy Qi should not be lost, and I will not come again, so I stupidly ran to Youzhou. As a result, the official sent by the second brother to Yanzhou had nothing to do, and sent someone to find me, so I reacted...... Later, my grandmother also came to Youzhou to tell me the truth, and I was sure that I was indeed coaxed by her. My father, eldest brother, and second brother all wrote letters to reprimand me, scolding me so much that I was bloody and embarrassed! ”

This time, when it comes to the truth, Xiao Hong really lost to Mrs. Mo Zhi. Won the military, but did not take the jurisdiction of Yanzhou, and lost in the handling of slightly immature political affairs.

Man Yun sighed and comforted: "It's okay! Grandma is seventy, you are twenty. It's normal to lose to her. ”

"Twenty-two!" , Xiao Hong still relentlessly tightened his wife's back and worked hard.

"Xiao Xiaoliu, what are you doing so stingy!" , Zhou Manyun pursed his lips and said softly: "No, you want to snatch Yanzhou back from your grandmother?" ”

"I didn't want to rob it! I told you that Yanzhou is in the hands of the Du family. What's more, my grandmother told me that she had no intention of splitting the territory, but as a Yanzhou person who grew up, she hoped that Yanzhou could really get a chance to recuperate, and she wanted to have more money to make the court pay attention to the decree on Yanzhou. ”

"Although my grandmother is a little overbearing to me, I can understand what she does." , Xiao Hong stretched out his hand to stabilize Man Yun's shoulders, flashed his eyelashes, and said in a dumb voice: "It's just ...... The reason she said when she snatched Yanzhou from me was too hurtful. ”

"What did Grandma say to you?" , Man Yun looked at Xiao Hong's eyes seriously, there was a slight pain in his eyes, and she also began to feel distressed inexplicably.

"She asked me, 'Rewarding the good and eliminating the people's troubles, loving the people like a son, covering them like the sky, and allowing them to be right, of course I should be.'" Then, she actually went on to say Xiao Xiaoliu, you are not yet a father, so naturally you can't understand the mood of being a father for the people, and I don't worry about handing over Yanzhou to you. ”

Xiao Hong's solemn response made Man Yun listen carefully with his ears pricked up, but after listening, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hey! Zhou Manyun! I was teased and ridiculed by my grandmother! I was snatched from Yanzhou by her like this shameless! Husband and wife, don't you share weal and woe with me, and continue to laugh at me? ”

"Husband, what do you think we are going to do?" , Man Yun's jade arm hooked Xiao Hong's neck lovingly.

"Get revenge on her! Let's get revenge on her together! With the conversation between the husband and wife just now, the light in the deep mountain meditation room became more and more dim and hazy, and it became more and more that the man's crystal eyes seemed to glow in the dark like a wolf.

"Revenge? She's my grandmother! Break bones and tendons! Laughing and pulling her husband's big hand into the placket, Zhou Manyun snorted dissatisfied.

The warm breath came to his face, and the soft nasal voice aroused the man's heart even more, he angrily gnawed directly on his wife's neck, and said vaguely, "So if you are willing to help me!" Man Yun ...... We gave birth to ten or eight in one go, so that her great-grandmother would be promoted to become older! The children wash three, the full moon, and the week...... Let's go up together and bring back all her family resources......"

This kind of revenge sounds like a good thing! Zhou Manyun smiled at her husband's kiss, and her heart was soft and sticky. (To be continued......)
