Ruoxiu may be right, I am the eldest son in the family, Xuanba is frail and sickly, and my mother is naturally more attentive.

Li Xuanba muttered to his mother in his sleep, I leaned on Ruo Xiu very uncomfortably, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Ruo Xiu's slightly shaking hand, and then I remembered - I am like this now, Xuanba is sick like this again, if Xiu is busy alone, he will definitely be tired.

I got up and settled down, and helped Ruo Xiu to say, "Let's go back." ”

Ruoxiu smiled, then helped me in turn and said, "Hmm." ”

We walked out of Xuanba's room, and we didn't go far before we bumped into Li Zhiyun, who was sitting alone on a rockery, holding a wine jug in his hand, and was still pouring wine into his mouth, and no one was watching.

I took a few quick steps forward, he squinted his eyes, and said vaguely, "Big brother...... The eldest brother ......" screamed twice, climbed down from the rockery, but stood unsteadily and fell to the ground.

Ruo Xiu hurriedly walked over and helped him up and asked, "Did you break it?" ”

Li Zhiyun shook his head, pointed to the wine jug on the ground and said, "It's broken......" After speaking, he laughed twice, and then leaned on Ruoxiu and fell asleep.

Ruoxiu shook his head, hugged Li Zhiyun and looked at me, I nodded lightly, and asked her to send Li Zhiyun back to Mrs. Wan.

Ruoxiu didn't worry about me staying alone, and said, "You go with you, let's walk over slowly?" ”

I knew she would have to worry if she didn't do what she said, so I walked slowly by her side.

When Mrs. Wan saw Li Zhiyun's appearance, she hurriedly apologized to me and said, "There is a young man, Zhiyun is too young and doesn't understand the rules, please ......."

I saw that Mrs. Wan's eyes were also red, and I quickly waved my hand and said, "He is free and easy by nature, and he is not formal. ”

Ruo Xiu also said: "It's okay, he is also sad and can't solve it, so he borrows wine to eliminate his sorrows." ”

Mrs. Wan hugged Li Zhiyun and lay on the bed, then turned back to me and said, "Son, you still have to mourn, don't hurt your body." ”

I nodded and said, "Jiancheng knows, Mrs. Xie cares." ”

Because of my mother's funeral, I closed my door and didn't care about what was happening outside. Sanniang came to me crying, saying that something had happened to Chai Shao.

In fact, since that day Ruoxiu told Sanniang's mother about the adult's illness, she rarely goes to the teahouse again, the girl is sensitive by nature, although she has a straightforward temperament, but when she encounters life and death events, she never speaks easily to people, these days are also a kind of torture for her.

After I vomited blood in the mourning hall, she also came to see me, didn't say a word, just cried in front of me. I couldn't even comfort myself, let alone how to comfort her, but when she came back, her mind calmed down a lot, and she probably finally accepted her mother's departure.

But grief has no plan, maybe just like me. I have Ruoxiu, two people cry opposite each other, and it can be regarded as a comfort to each other. She must have no choice but to go to Chai Shao.

Ruo Xiu listened to her words and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

Sanniang stopped crying, calmed down a little before replying: "Luo Khan of the Western Turkic Department came to the court and expressed his willingness to surrender. The emperor ordered Chai Shao to go to the Western Turks with the order of Luo Khan to collect grain, grass and troops, but he ...... After he went to the Turks, he ...... It's missing! ”

I thought for a while and said: "The emperor is simply crazy, the Turks are good at fighting immediately, but the Eastern Expedition relies on water warfare, even the soldiers of the Central Plains are not suitable, let alone the Turks?" ”

I said Sanniang while making a gesture to cover my mouth, and as soon as my voice fell, she said, "Big brother, you ......"

Ruoxiu waved his hand and said, "What your eldest brother said is not bad. ”

Sanniang said: "The emperor has sent someone to investigate, but I'm worried that it is not a person." ”

I asked, "Who is it?" ”

Sanniang pursed her lips and said, "Yu Wenshi and." ”

I was stunned for a moment and said, "How could it be him?" ”

Sanniang said: "There is no good person in their Yuwen family. Big brother, can you help me? ”

I thought for a while and said, "Yuwen ......" suddenly remembered Yu Wenhua, who had disappeared in Zhuo County before the accident, and felt guilty in his heart, "Big brother heard that Yuwen Shi is humble and gentle, and has the style of a gentleman, so he should try his best to investigate, don't worry." ”

Sanniang looked at me unhappily and said, "Big brother, don't you help?" ”

I touched her head and said, "When did the eldest brother say that he wouldn't help?" As long as you open your mouth, the big brother can help with any big matter. ”

Sanniang grabbed my sleeve, her eyes turned red, and she started crying again.

Ruo Xiu held her shoulder and comforted: "Sanniang, don't worry, he will be fine." ”

But I knew that such comfort would not help at all, because my mother's death was too devastating for her, and she would think of everything for the worst.

I wrote a letter asking Zhang Wensu and Xun Yi to find me at the place where my mother was buried.

It's autumn, and every grass and tree outside the hut exudes a bleak atmosphere, which is my least favorite season, because even the best mood in the face of such a bleak scenery can't help but add a bit of sentimentality. At this moment, it is very appropriate.

I looked at Zhang Wensu and Xun Yi who were walking slowly from a distance, and they saw me standing in front of the door from a distance, walked over quickly, and shook their heads when they saw me.

Zhang Wensu is also a person who has lost his mother, although he has always been contemplative, always laughing and scolding to comfort people, but now he empathizes with my situation, he put away his usual uninhibited attitude, and only arched his hand towards me. Xun Yi was even more direct, looking at me with a solemn face.

Zhang Wensu patted me on the shoulder, and I led them into the house.

As soon as they sat down, I said to Xun: "I wonder if Mr. Xun can go to the Turks?" ”

Xun Yiyi: "Yes." ”

Zhang Wensu said: "Looking for Wensu, is there something else?" ”

Xun Yi didn't ask what he was doing in the Turks, they already knew that Chai Shao's whereabouts were unknown.

I nodded and said, "I don't know if there is a letter from Zhuojun?" ”

Zhang Wensu took out a letter from his sleeve and said, "Childe finally asked?" Childe rest assured, Yu Wenhua is fine, this is a letter from Mr. Xu, Childe will know at a glance. ”

I opened the letter and read it carefully, and as I expected, Xu Shimo's first sentence was to thank me for helping him find his niece Xiahou Ling, who was taken away by officers and soldiers.

Looking further down, I realized that Yu Wenhua and in Zhuojun were no less than the things I encountered in Jiangdu.

He met the woman he had asked for when Yang Guang asked him what he wanted for when he asked him for a reward.

At first, Yu Wenhua didn't believe that he could find someone he hadn't found in more than twenty years so easily. But after inquiry, this woman is indeed the one Yu Wenhua and the one he knew.

Yu Wenhua led his troops to fight when he was still a teenager, and he was righteous, and he once saved a woman in a thousand armies when he attacked the Chen Dynasty.
