Li Yanzhao is now able to walk on the ground. However, due to the slight loss of blood at the time of the injury, he still felt weak. In addition, the cow mother washed her face with tears every day, and Li Yanzhao, who felt ashamed, couldn't face this sad mother. So he stayed in the house all day and didn't go out, but during this time, he asked Liu Jiwen to transport back the big box full of copper coins stored in the county government, and then asked Liu Jiwen's wife to go to the street to buy some daily necessities and send them to the cow's mother......

These days, in addition to recuperating from injuries, I listened to Liu Zhongkang teach Qiao'er. It made Li Yanzhao, who was used to seeing swords and armor, feel a little bored. However, his weak body, coupled with the guilt of his mother, made him feel like he was in captivity. All I can do every day is to teach Qiao'er how to learn words, or play with her and throw pots. After a few days, Li Yanzhao, whose wounds were gradually healing, also felt more and more that this kind of leisurely and tranquil life began to have fun. Those little things began to fill his life, and gradually made him begin to occasionally forget those swords and swords, and sacrifice his life to fight.

Only occasionally when he was in his own right, he would look at the ceiling, thinking about the thrilling battles on the battlefield before, the indomitable progress, and the blood and tears that were destined to be unforgettable. These things haunted his mind, and they accompanied him every night in the dead of night.

Finally, one morning, Qiao'er read aloud in the study room of the main hall, accompanied by Liu Zhongkang's error correction prompts that sounded from time to time. Li Yanzhao walked to the window and laboriously opened the window to look out, but it was sunny outside, and Liu Zhongkang's little grandson was playing with Niu Erzhuang's younger sister in the courtyard. Liu Jiwen had already carried a hoe to take care of his own field, but Liu's wife was watching the two children in the courtyard, with a doting smile on her face.

Li Yanzhao took a step and slowly walked to the courtyard. When Liu Zhongkang's youngest grandson saw him, he hurriedly ran up and called him Uncle Li, pestering him and begging him to make him a few more Kong Ming lanterns for him. Li Yanzhao also touched the child's head with a smile, and said softly: "Be good, wait for your uncle to do it for you at night, okay." ”

Liu Jiwu's wife saw that her child was entangled with Li Yanzhao, so she hurriedly stepped forward and reprimanded a few words, and apologized to Li Yanzhao again and again. Li Yanzhao didn't care at all, and hurriedly comforted her. Then he was about to walk out of the courtyard, but the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open, and then the cow mother walked in with a basket.

When the cow mother saw Li Yanzhao, her expression was instantly stunned. After that, my eyes were red and swollen, but I couldn't help but cry. Li Yanzhao was also stunned for a moment, and then knelt straight down in front of the cow mother......

Seeing this, Ji Wu's wife hurriedly carried the finch back to the house. And Niu Erzhuang, the young sister who was only eight or nine years old, stayed in the courtyard and looked at the two of them helplessly. I didn't know what to say for a while, but I called out timidly to my mother, and then shrank behind the well platform and stopped making a sound.

Li Yanzhao said to the cow mother who was crying silently: "Erzhuang...... He died to save me...... And he ...... The only ones who can't let go are you and his sister......"

Hearing Li Yanzhao mention her son, Niu's mother cried even more sadly, and he was also on the ground at the moment, and the nail of his right hand was tightly pinched into the flesh in her own palm.

"I have been with Erzhuang for many years...... Brotherhood. Li Yanzhao said as he spoke, and tears couldn't be suppressed: "Erzhuang and I are like brothers, and he died to save me...... If you don't give up, you can treat me as a ...... in the future Be your son...... I will do what I say and I will treat you...... Like a biological mother...... I beg you to mourn ......"

Li Yanzhao couldn't hold back any longer, and he sobbed while crying, looking at the godless eyes of the cow mother in despair, and suddenly felt that he was extremely sinful. But the cow mother was already wailing: "My son...... I didn't even see him for the last time...... I didn't see it...... Dad, how am I going to see you in the future! ”

For a while, the two people in the courtyard hugged their heads and cried. Their cries came into the inner room, and Qiao'er's reading in the study also stopped. Soon after, Liu Zhongkang walked briskly into the courtyard. Seeing the two of them crying bitterly, Liu Zhongkang also had a sad face.

"Erzhuang's motherfuck...... People can't be resurrected from death, so mourn. The old man's son is also in the army, and I don't know if he can ...... this time Can you come back......" Liu Zhongkang said as he spoke, his eyes were also red, and his voice was unconsciously choked.

After some persuasion, everyone persuaded the cow mother to return to the house. Liu Zhongkang and Li Yanzhao sat on the well platform in the courtyard, listening to the sobs that sounded from time to time in the west wing, and their expressions were also extremely sad. Li Yanzhao held back the sadness in his heart, turned his head to Liu Zhongkang and said, "Ji Wuji is a natural person, and he will definitely be fine...... Don't worry......"

Li Yanzhao reluctantly said this, and even he didn't believe it very much. In this battle, the losses of the various armies were almost unprecedented. There are a total of five generals and generals above the rank of 100 generals of the Guangwu Army, and the casualties have reached three so far. Not to mention those lower-level officers and soldiers.

When Liu Zhongkang heard Li Yanzhao's words, his expression not only did not show any relief, but became even heavier. The look of worry on his face made Li Yanzhao's heart ache faintly. He thought about it, then got up and said to Liu Zhongkang: "That's it, Uncle Liu, you stay at home for a while, I'll go to the county mansion and ask the prince about the recent battle report, there is news of Ji Wu, please stay for a while......"

After that, Li Yanzhao went out, and then walked slowly in the direction of the county government.

He has just recovered from his serious injuries, and although he can now walk on the ground, he must be careful in everything, and he cannot walk quickly. Otherwise, the wound that has not yet healed will still be painful. Li Yanzhao couldn't accept his current state. The person who once galloped on the battlefield on horseback can now not even speed like the wind, which makes him feel a strong psychological gap. He walked for a while, then sat down on a small stall selling steamed buns on the side of the road, asked for a bowl of white porridge and two steamed buns, and ate them. He didn't eat in the morning, and now he has walked a long way, which makes him feel hungry even more.

After hurriedly eating these meals and paying the money, Li Yanzhao got up and continued to walk slowly in the direction of the county government. Although there are still many people along the way, the county town is still as lively as before. However, the faces of walking passers-by seem to have a faint haze. The soldiers who patrolled the city everywhere in the past have long been replaced by the county guards and officials.

Li Yanzhao paced to the gate of the county government and saw that the guards in front of the gate were all old acquaintances who had taken care of him. At this time, when he saw him coming, he also looked surprised and happy. After saying hello, Li Yanzhao took out two copper coins from his arms, stuffed them into the hands of the two guards, and said that he had taken care of himself for so long, and he would accept it with a little caution. The two guards shirked twice, and when they saw Li Yanzhao's resolute attitude, they also accepted it with a happy expression.

Li Yanzhao made it clear to the two that he wanted to enter the county government to meet the king. The two also understood that the relationship between him and the prince was relatively close, so a guard opened the door and led Li Yanzhao inside to report. The other man remained dutifully standing guard outside the door.

Before arriving at the inner hall, Li Yanzhao looked over, but saw that Taishou was still alone in the hall after reviewing the official documents after a few cases. The guards stepped forward to report when they entered, and saw Taishou hurriedly stand up, and then shouted: "Please Yanzhao enter!" ”[.]
