The night was already deep, and under the reflection of the light of the candles, Qian Yuan sat silently on the edge of the bed in a strange and awkward posture, holding his mother's outstretched hand in one hand, and shaking a pu fan in the other hand to fan his mother.

After Qian Yuan was kidnapped by the Japanese invaders, Qian Zheng and Gu Chengzhi followed Yang Wen and Xu Wei to pursue for thousands of miles, and the Tan family, who was kept in the dark, soon found out, the reason is very simple, her son is her only hope now, all hope, and three days later, the Lu family had to tell the truth.

Since then, Tan has tossed and turned in agony every day, kneeling in front of the Buddha statue for long hours of time and praying sincerely.

After Qian Zheng sent someone to send back the safety news, the Tan family set off as soon as possible, and the Lu family really didn't feel at ease to follow along, and left the Huang family and Xiaomei in the food garden through Hangzhou, with only a few guards, two mothers-in-law, and two maids all the way to Nanjing.

Seeing his son who was safe and sound, Tan's tight strings did not immediately loosen, pulling his son's chattering and nagging, and he also stretched out a hand to pull his son while lying on the bed, for fear that he would lose sight once his eyes were closed.

After talking for a long, long time, Tan fell asleep unconsciously, but Qian Yuan did not leave, the right hand shaking the fan was unhurried but never stopped, and there was a smile on his face that appeared at some point.

The Lu family outside the door looked at this scene, and his heart was both peaceful and a little sour, although his sister-in-law lost his father and son, he had a filial young son, compared to it, he did not have this blessing.

"Ahem."

Hearing the cough, Qian Yuan, who was afraid of disturbing his mother's sleep, frowned and turned his head to look, his eyes were sharp and cold, and the murderous aura that had been suppressed in his heart for several months and still did not disperse, making the Lu family outside the door shiver.

Compared with half a year ago, today's Qian Yuan has lost his lazy elegance on the surface, and has a hint of sharp edge, like a half-unsheathed sword, which is extremely eye-catching.

"Uncle." Qian Yuan walked out slowly and asked softly, "Thank you uncle and aunt for accompanying my mother on this trip, my nephew is grateful......

"Is it a family to talk to two families?" Lu Shi said angrily: "It's a matter of duty." ”

Qian Yuan looked back at the inner room where there was no movement, and walked out a few steps, "Running all the way, uncle and mother will rest first?" ”

"Well, I'll go back." Lu nodded, "This house is a bit small, we will live in Nanjing for at least a month, Ming'er I will call a tooth man to ask, change to a big house." ”

Qian Yuan pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "This place is left for the guards, let's move, just choose one that is enough to live." ”

"Okay, I'll arrange it, you just have to concentrate on preparing for the exam." Lu hesitated for a while, looked out, and said in a low voice: "After all, I have followed you a long time ago, although I made a mistake, the punishment should not be too much." ”

"What?"

"He has made good arrangements along the way, and he has served thoughtfully...... Lu Shi glanced at Qian Yuan with a blank face in surprise, "It's the guard surnamed Liu, who is still kneeling outside the side door." ”

"Liu Hong......"

The scene a few months ago flashed in front of his eyes, but what Qian Yuan recalled for the first time was not the scene where he was grabbed by the Japanese and Liu Hong frantically pounced, but the scene when Liu Hong was cut off his left arm by the Japanese in the Battle of Longchuan.

Outside the side door, one-armed Liu Hong still knelt on the ground and refused to get up, he was seriously injured in the battle of Longchuan, he stayed in Longchuan Village for more than two months to recuperate from his injuries, and finally picked up a life and came back.

After that, he silently returned to She County, and escorted Tan's party to Hangzhou, and then to Nanjing, doing his best along the way.

"Squeak."

The door opened.

Qian Yuan looked at Liu Hong's empty left sleeve, snorted and walked around to the back, stretched out his toes and kicked Liu Hong's already bent back, "Straighten up." ”

Liu Hong immediately straightened his spine and whispered in his mouth, "Young Master......"

Qian Yuan said coldly: "Nine people were killed and seven were injured in the front and rear guards, three of whom were disabled...... But you came back with a life. ”

Liu Hong raised his head suddenly, "Young Master, I'm not afraid of ......"

"You are not afraid of death, and if you are afraid of death, you will not stand up in Longchuan." Qian Yuan witnessed the battle with his own eyes in the rape field, if it weren't for Liu Hongzhi at the forefront to stop the Japanese for a moment, Yang Wen might not have time to gather guards and wolf soldiers to form a formation, once they were killed by the Japanese invaders, everyone would not be able to escape.

"Remember, you still have nine lives on your back." Qian Yuan kicked Liu Hong's knee, turned his head and asked: "But the state has national laws, and the family has family rules......

After a pause, Qian Yuan looked at Yang Wen and Wang Yi who came out with him, "Tell me, how to punish it?" ”

Yang Wen hesitated: "Sign a deed of sale?" ”

"The young master will definitely be in a high position in the future, this kind of deed of sale...... How many people are willing to spend money to buy it! Wang Yi scoffed.

The corners of Yang Wen's mouth moved, I still took advantage of my feelings two years ago?

Ignoring the arguments between Yang Wen and Wang Yi, Qian Yuan calmly looked at Liu Hong, who was still kneeling on the ground, and looked at the hope on Liu Hong's face.

In all fairness, Songmingshan was taken captive, Liu Hong was responsible, but objectivity accounted for the main factor, who would have thought that the Japanese would appear in Huizhou, where there had never been a Japanese robber, and who would have thought that Xu Wei would be drunk and would turn around and draw his sword...... Accidents were the main reason for Qian Yuan's captivity.

"First, the nine brothers who died in battle, as well as the two crippled brothers, have double pensions, one for me and one for you, and you have to do your best to take care of them in their families."

"Yes." Liu Hong nodded vigorously.

"Second, I will give a piece of silver to ......" Qian Yuan turned his head and waved his hand to calm down before continuing: "It is mainly the villages near Jingde County, Jing County, and Nanling County in Ningguo Mansion, and you are all in charge. ”

Liu Hong looked up and saw the distorted look on Qian Yuan's face, opened his mouth, and finally nodded yes.

It is rare for a native of the Ming Dynasty to have such emotions, and it is rare for an ordinary person who has traveled back in modern times to have such emotions, but for Qian Yuan, who was a criminal policeman in his previous life......

No matter what the reason, no matter whether or not he finally killed the Japanese Invaders, during that period of time, he bandaged the wounds of the Wolves, explored the way for the Wolves, and purchased supplies for the Wolves...... This is the place in his heart where he can't forgive himself.

Although Qian Yuan never regrets or feels guilty, he will never forget, and he will never forget the hard-working farmers in the village, the old people who enjoy their old age, the children who frolicking in the fields, and the raging fire.

Although Yang Wen, Wang Yi, and Liu Hong may not be able to understand, Qian Yuan feels that as a time-traveler, some things cannot be integrated into this era, and some things need to be kept in his heart.

"This thing is done, let's talk about the rest of it." Qian Yuan kicked Liu Hong for the third time, "Get up." ”

Yang Wen rushed up to help Liu Hong up, Wang Yi rubbed his knees hard, and muttered: "That is, the young master is soft-hearted and changes to the master's family...... I don't chop you, but I also put you in a position like eighteen. ”

Qian Yuan, who was about to enter the door, turned his head and pointed at Wang Yi and scolded with a smile: "If it weren't for your orders, he Liu Hong would have knelt at the side door until so late!" ”

Qian Yuan was like a mirror in his heart, Wang Yi was in charge of everything inside and outside the house, Liu Hong knelt outside the side door for a few hours, but he didn't even report it, and the eight achievements were Wang Yi's idea.

Wang Yi smiled, he was in the army in the first half of his life, he saw more greed for life and fear of death, saw more abandoned weapons and fled, saw more and scattered in a hurry, and also saw more profit and forgetfulness, and now he met a master who can definitely be regarded as affectionate and righteous by the standards of this era, so he naturally wants to try his best to maintain this atmosphere.
