Chapter IV: Visiting Relatives (I)
The groggy Ji Zhan had a long dream, in the dream there were Yiren, there was a lovely son, and there was also his father Ji Ang, the family was happy, the son was five years old, jumping around all day, looking at the son who was playing, the Yiren with needlework and the father who drank tea, the family was happy, and I felt that I was the happiest person in the world. When he came back from talking about business, he found that his mansion had been on fire, and the people passing by were panicked, avoided it, and hurriedly dodged, only a few family members were struggling to put out the fire, "Yiren, father, son, where are you?" ”
He cried out heartbreakingly, the most important people who lived in this courtyard, he couldn't lose them even if he lost everything, his tears were dry, his voice was hoarse, but now there was noise everywhere, no one responded to him, he fell into despair, hugged his head and cried.
"Yiren, father, son" Ji Zhan woke up from his dream.
Frightened, cold sweat.
Everything in the dream is like a bolt from the blue, very real.
Am I not dead? How can it appear here, the first thing that catches your eye is a large room, the room is neatly placed, the decoration is antique, the owner of this room is a person with extraordinary taste, there are some neat bamboo slips on the desk, and there are ink stains on the four treasures of the study, it seems that it has just gone out, a painting on the wall has attracted the attention of Ji Zhan, which is drawn by ink, a general rides a war horse, holding a war knife, majestic, and rushes to the other party's thousands of troops. Ji Zhan seemed to hear the howling cold wind and the sound of fighting on the battlefield, and the aftermath lingered, and he couldn't stop for a long time, everything was like a scene in the picture, real and illusory.
"Crunch", the door opened, and a person came in, Ji Zhan looked at his figure, feeling familiar and unfamiliar, probably because of the angle, until he walked in front of him, Ji Zhan understood, isn't this the prince of Shaohao Kingdom in the prisoner car?
"It's you, don't wait, can I not die because of you?" Ji Zhan said in surprise.
"That's right, it's me, how do you feel when you wake up?" Mo asked idly.
Ignoring the difference between the scene in the dream and the reality, and forgetting his injuries all of a sudden, Ji Zhan looked around his body and found that his body was not probable, but his head was still a little dizzy, and it hurt a little if he moved a little.
"Okay," Ji Zhan said, "weren't you in the cage last night?" How did you get out? ”
"I am the crown prince of Shaohao Kingdom, and after I was arrested, the king wanted to kill me on the spot, but because of Daji's temporary displeasure, he sent me to the bitter cold land of the Arctic, where I was tortured to death. I didn't expect it to be fulfilled I bought off the jailer who guarded me, and asked him to help me bring the letter out, my father arranged for someone, and was supposed to do it near the teahouse, but because I was afraid of hurting the innocent, and then because of your intervention, it made this matter more troublesome, in order to ensure your safety, I asked my subordinates to listen to my instructions to do it, but I didn't expect that in the middle of it happened that the three of you brothers fell out, I saw it in my eyes, and after you were injured, I felt that the opportunity to do it came, so I handed over the people under it to come out, Kill your eldest brother Fan Liang in one fell swoop, and when he saw you injured, he rescued you by the way" Mo said with an expressionless face.
In his opinion, saving Ji Zhan is the same as picking up garbage, but it is indeed true.
Ji Zhan looked at everything in front of him, and felt that Mo Wait's leisure was not bad, at least he didn't harm him secretly, although it was nothing for Mo Wait's leisure to save him, but he was grateful to the person in front of him from the bottom of his heart, if there was no such person, then he might have been exposed to the wilderness now.
"Thank you for saving me, I'll give you back the chance to do so." Ji Zhan said.
"No need, you take care of your body first, and then talk about it when you get better." With that, he turned his head to leave.
"Hey, where are we now?" Ji Zhan asked anxiously.
"Nanzhan City" waved his hand and left without looking back.
Nanzhan City, known as the richest city in the south, has reached an advanced level of economy, mainly based on agriculture, and is a production base for wheat, and hundreds of thousands of people in the country can see that wheat is completely self-sufficient. At the same time, it is also the capital of Shaohao Kingdom. Myself have been to this place before.
"I wonder how Yiren and his son are doing?" Ji Zhan looked out the window and muttered.
"Where has the lord gone? I haven't seen him for three days," one woman said to her maid.
"Madam, you are not well yet, don't get out of bed, my lord has gone to Wushan." The maid saw that the lady was about to get out of bed, and hurriedly explained.
"What are you going to do in Wushan? Didn't know I just had a baby? The woman said slightly angrily.
"Madam, the lord went to ask for a name for the little son, and the lord said that the name is a big thing, and you must ask the master for a name in order to be lucky in your life. So after you gave birth to a little boy, I set off. The maid explained.
"Is it?" the woman looked into the distance, her eyes looking straight into the distance, as if thoughtful.
In a house, a man packed his luggage and prepared to travel far away, this person was the husband of the woman in the distance, Ji Zhan, after a short period of recuperation, he was almost fine, and he packed his luggage and prepared to say goodbye to the prince of Shaohao Kingdom.
I happened to see Mo Waitian passing by his window, so he hurriedly stopped him and told him about it.
Mo Xian knew that he was in trouble, and he didn't keep him, but just arranged a carriage for him, and arranged for the coachman to send him to his destination before he could come back.
Ji Zhan was very grateful for Mo Wait's arrangement, and he already owed Mo Waitidle a great favor, so he couldn't accept this affection, but because of Mo Wait's persistence, Ji Zhan could only give up and left in the carriage.
Because Wushan was located in the middle of the Shang Dynasty and Shaohao Kingdom, it was also close, so it took less than a day to arrive, and Ji Zhan arranged for the coachman to go back.
"Wushan, I'm here," Ji Zhan said excitedly, the target of this trip is Wushan, and he came for his son's name.
The second brother's family seems to be here, although the second brother is gone, but the matter of being entrusted with loyalty, integrity must still be talked about, besides, it is appropriate for brothers to help each other.
Ji Zhan looked at the three big characters of Wushan County on the city gate in front of him, he was very worried in his heart, and the soles of his feet were like a thousand catties of boulders, and he couldn't move anymore, looking at the people in Wushan County, but it was difficult for him to move his feet, the second brother was killed by Fan Liang because of himself, and now Fan Liang is dead, and the second sister-in-law has finally taken revenge, but leaving orphans and widows, who will take care of it.
Thinking of this, Ji Zhan couldn't help sighing, Jiajia has a scripture that is difficult to read, and she also has a family, and now all she can do is to compensate her second sister-in-law's family financially, so that she is more down-to-earth. After all, although I have the heart to do such a thing, I am not strong enough.
Jianzhan saw a person coming towards him, so he stopped and inquired, wanting to know the whereabouts of the second sister-in-law Ying'e, but unexpectedly, this person didn't know where the second sister-in-law was, and he didn't know that there was such a person at all, which made Ji Zhan really angry.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Zhan stopped a fruit seller, but the vendor didn't know that there was such a person, although Wushan County was not big, but it was more troublesome to find someone, Huan in peacetime, Ji Zhan had no interest in staying for a long time, mainly because the second brother was unfortunately killed because of protecting himself, and he was obliged to see his family. Give them some material compensation, otherwise how will they survive as orphans and widows?
Ji Zhan stopped as he walked, asked fifty or sixty people, and walked about half of the county, but no one knew that there was such a person, which made Ji Zhan wonder very much, what the hell is going on. It's impossible for no one to know, there must be some ulterior secrets in this. I inquired carefully, and since I couldn't ask on the spot, I secretly inquired inside.
Ji Zhan happened to see an inn in the distance, and it was not far away, so he stayed, and after he was full of wine and food, he returned to the guest room to rest, Xiao Er pushed open the door and came in, "Guest officer, you need to eat something,"
"Give me some potatoes and steamed buns," Ji Zhan said.
"Okay, please wait a minute" Xiao Er finished speaking and went out to prepare.
