Listening to Duan Peng's words, Bai Mu suddenly remembered something.

When he was still in the gourd valley of Liaodong, the lord Jiang Chuan once told him one thing: pay attention to a young scholar named Liu Yong.

At that time, he did send someone to inquire, and later learned from Hai Dongqing's mouth that they had indeed robbed and killed a young man who was traveling alone, and that the soldier's luggage at that time was a few books in addition to a few clothes.

After the lord Jiang Chuan knew about this, he also sighed that human life is like grass, and a useful talent was killed by these horse thieves, which is really sad and lamentable.

Unexpectedly, I heard this name again today.

Is it a coincidence? Or is it just a person at all?

If it is a person, is it necessary to bring this woman looking for relatives into Beijing?

In troubled times, it is normal for people to die. If you don't tell her, there is always a glimmer of hope. If you tell it, then so many years of seeking will be meaningless, and then it will be another disappointment and sadness?

Bai Mu was also a little hesitant for a while.

Seeing that the commander was silent, Duan Peng didn't say anything, just stood straight aside and waited.

After a while, Bai Mu finally spoke: "Take it." I'll tell Your Highness in person when I get back. ”

Whether it's or not, there's always going to be a nobody. Bai Mu remembered that His Highness had said that there were a few letters that had not been sent among the relics of the scholar.

When the time comes, when she arrives in the capital, let the woman see those letters, and she will know whether it is or not.

Duan Peng saw that the army commander agreed, and immediately saluted, and went back to arrange for someone to pick up Chen Jiaying to come to Xiong'an County.

…………

Since the two bandits of King Guo Yan and the One-eyed Dragon were completely annihilated by the official army, Chenjiazhuang has returned to its former calm and stability, and no bandits have ever harassed it again.

The farmers of Chenjiazhuang also began to slowly forget the bloody scenes of the day, and put themselves into the work day after day.

However, everyone's hearts seem to be more steady, and their voices seem to be more cheerful.

Only Chen Jiaying, since the unit left, has been thinking about what the lieutenant promised him.

She had a strong instinct that this time she would most likely hear from her brother.

But as time passed, there was no more news from the officers and soldiers. This made her hopeful heart slowly cool down again.

Finding her brother has become a spiritual pillar for her to live in this world.

If she is disappointed again, how will she continue with her life in the future? Is it to continue to live in this conservative and isolated mountain village for the rest of your life?

A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and there is still no news from the official army.

On this day, Chen Jiaying, like every day in the past month, would take the maid across the bridge to look at the road in the distance, hoping to see those gray figures representing hope.

But for a long time, until the sun above her began to deviate from the middle sky, and the Zhuangzi behind her was already full of smoke, Chen Wannian's voice calling for her daughter to come home for dinner came, and she still didn't see those gray figures.

"Miss, go back. Those officers and soldiers may just say it casually, and they don't take it seriously at all. If you wait like this, when will it be the end? ”

The maid behind her looked at the young lady who had lost a lot of money these days, and comforted her distressedly.

But when she heard these words in Chen Jiaying's ears, she was even more disappointed in her heart.

She didn't want to believe that the official army would lose her words, but the facts made her have to believe it.

I don't know how long I stood there, Chen Jiaying finally sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "Shuang'er, let's go back." No more tomorrow. ”

The maid Shuang'er saw that the young lady had figured it out, and her heart was also relieved, but when she was about to speak, she suddenly pointed to the distant road and shouted: "Miss, miss, someone is coming!" Someone's coming! ”

Chen Jiaying, who was already planning to give up hope completely, hurriedly turned around and saw a team of knights galloping towards him.

As the distance narrowed, she also saw clearly that the people on the horse were wearing the gray military uniform she had been looking forward to all this time, and her originally gloomy eyes lit up in an instant.

The knights galloped at a gallop, and when they approached a beautiful reined horse, they all stopped in an instant.

When the first knight jumped off the horse quickly, he strode up to Chen Jiaying and saluted, "Miss Chen, meet again." ”

Chen Jiaying, who came, also knew him, called Wei Dayong, and should also be an officer.

"Lord Wei, the folk girl is polite." Chen Jiaying endured the joy in her heart and saluted.

"Miss Chen, I'm not an adult, just a small squad leader." Wei Dayong smiled, and then said, "Miss Chen must be in a hurry." Our unit has been suppressing bandits for the past month, so the captain has never had a chance to report the girl's matter. Yesterday, our captain had already told our army commander about you, and the army commander thought of your search for your brother and promised to take you to Beijing together. The troops will return to Beijing tomorrow, so the captain sent a few of us to pick up the girl. ”

Wei Dayong concisely explained the meaning.

When he heard the news at first glance, Su Ri had always been the result of his heart's hope, but Chen Jiaying was still a little excited and couldn't believe it for a while, and she lost her mind for a while, and she was stunned and didn't speak.

It was the maid behind her who woke her up.

"Good, good, great! That's great! Wei, squad leader Wei, thank you so much, thank you, Lord Lieutenant, thank you! ”

Thinking that it wouldn't be long before she could know the news of her brother, Chen Jiaying spoke a little incoherently, two lines of tears slid down her cheeks, her body trembled, her hands trembled, and she wanted to bow and thank Wei Dayong while talking.

Wei Dayong, who was in a hurry, hurriedly said: "Miss Chen, I can't help it." We don't like that. If you really want to thank you, then wait until you find your brother before thanking our Highness. ”

The maid Shuang'er behind him also hurriedly supported her young lady and kept comforting.

Chen Jiaying's emotions calmed down, wiped her eyes, and said a little embarrassedly: "Let you military masters laugh." He also invited several military masters to Zhuangzi to rest and eat. ”

Wei Dayong shook his head and said, "Miss Chen, time is pressing, we have to leave tomorrow." If the girl wants to go with her, please go back and pack your bags, and we'll leave later. If the girl has not yet eaten, she can bring some dry food on the way to satisfy her hunger. ”

Chen Jiaying was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect the time to be so urgent.

But he didn't understand it soon, and immediately nodded and said, "Minnu understands." I'm going back to pack my bags and say goodbye to my dad. Several military masters also invited them to drink saliva in the village. ”

Wei Dayong was also relieved to see Chen Jiaying so cooperative, nodded and led the horse to follow Chen Jiaying into Zhuangzi.

When Chen Laocai knew that Chen Jiaying was going to follow the official army into Beijing to seek, the whole person was stunned, his lips trembled for a long time, and his hands trembled, wanting to say something, but in the end he said: "Girl, Dad will get you something to eat on the road." ”

He knew that this fairy-like, kind-hearted, and capable girl was not something that he, a little Zhuangzi, could keep.

The day he came, he knew.
