In late autumn and winter, on the outskirts of Chang'an, a group of people and horses walked slowly against the biting cold wind. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This team is not small, there are thousands of people, and there are countless fierce beasts accompanying them, which seems to be quite powerful. It was the Wild Wolf Army who traveled a few months ago.

Although the long journey was unbearable and people complained, everyone was still excited when they saw that they were going home.

Although this trip to Jiangnan was not completed, it did not complete the general's expectations, but it still gained a lot, in a few months, the beast fought the vanguard, the wolf army was behind, the local garrison swept the tail, and completely became a line of operations, from the waterway to the land, and then from the land back to the waterway, sweeping away a large area of Jiangnan evil forces, but also seized countless goods.

Everyone has made a lot of meritorious contributions, and those who have a heart have calculated, and after this trip, the small soldiers have advanced to the rank of captain, and the officers and soldiers at the rank of captain are promoted to two or three grades, similar to the sons and daughters of high-ranking cadres such as Cheng Chumo and others, and they can even be promoted to two or three official ranks in a row and become middle-level army managers.

Moreover, because the original idea of the Wild Wolf Army was to train scout troops, when they settle down, they will soon become the object of competition among various guards, and the future will be very good, even if they are the lowest-level auxiliaries, with this qualification, they can become low-level officials such as low-level guards in border towns after mixing for decades, and they will be mixed with grades and get rid of the official ranks that do not enter the stream. Not to mention the auxiliary soldiers, even the ordinary government soldiers can't mix with this treatment, most of them are retired after working all their lives and finally leading a foreign commander or something.

Not to mention, along the way, Bailiyun, who doesn't care about money, has all kinds of personal rewards, every time he checks, there will always be some corners leaked to them, and after a few times, everyone makes a lot of money, even if he directly resigns from military affairs and goes home to buy a few acres of land as a small landlord.

However, unlike the jubilant troops, the leader Bailiyun had a sad face and borrowed wine to dispel his sorrows. He drank a lot of alcohol, and he couldn't get drunk no matter how he drank, so he was even more upset.

Why is that?

said that after exterminating the remnants of the Xiaoguo Army that time, Bai Liyun directly took a cadre of generals to the Xie family to prepare for a marriage.

In his mind, just like Qin Qiong said, he doesn't lack anything now, his status, money, title, and rights are all there, and he is in the prime of life, so there is no reason to fail.

When these people see money, they will use money to smash people. The five surnames and seven hopes are now mixed poorly, and occasionally do some business to buy and sell daughters, Rao is so that everyone is still flocking to it, no way, the quality of other people's daughters is good, not to mention this so-called reputation, just the talent is fascinating. But even if it is a woman with a fifth surname, it can only be done with a dowry of 1,000 taels of gold, and it is the eldest daughter of the in-law, at most 10,000 taels.

Although Xie Xiaoyue is beautiful in Bailiyun's eyes, this is just a lover's eyes. In fact, she is just a concubine of a broken family, and she used to have a father who loved her, but the problem is that his father is dead.

Lao Tzu is not short of money, he smashed tens of thousands of taels of gold, I don't believe you Xie family will not let go. With such an idea, Bailiyun was very excited to come to Xie's house.

However, reality gave him a mouthful.

Xie Xiaoyue actually died, and just yesterday, he was a step late.

Bailiyun was suddenly stunned, and he was a little overwhelmed by what to do, and he was stunned.

The subordinates around him didn't know what to do, they were all big bosses, and they didn't have an idea, so they had to do their job as a guard, and surrounded Bailiyun to guard around.

Or Yaozu understood the reason, and hurriedly went to find someone to ask clearly, and after several twists and turns, he found a Xie Xiaoyue's maid Xiaoju, and only then did he know that there were twists and turns.

It turned out that Old Man Xie had just passed away, and these Xie family children could no longer hold back the desire in their hearts, and they couldn't wait to immediately remove the thorn in the eye of Xie Xiaoyue, who was in charge of the family's wealth, and marry him quickly, not to mention that he could earn a rich dowry.

After thinking about it a few times, the Xie family screened out the youngest son of the Du family who gave the most money from countless suitors and was ready to marry. Only then did I know that Xie Xiaoyue had already secretly agreed that she had fallen in love with someone else when she was in Chang'an, and it was said that she was still a big official. But the remaining juniors of the Xie family are very snobbish, they don't care if you are a big official or not, like many Jiangnan people, although the Xie family is down, they can't look down on these emerging nouveau riche under the management of the Li royal family, let alone Li Shimin's subordinates who are plotting to usurp the throne.

The money that can be received immediately is the most important thing, so regardless of Xie Xiaoyue's opposition, he privately made a family affair with someone and accepted a dowry of 1,000 taels of gold. This made them very happy, because the Xie family was no longer the Xie family of the year, but they never thought that because of Xie Xiaoyue's talent, they could gain so much like the five surnamed women.

Yesterday was the day to welcome relatives, and the Xie family happily welcomed relatives and friends and held a wedding banquet. When the people who greet their relatives come, it is even more lively.

I never thought about it, I was very happy and sad, as a talented girl, Xie Xiaoyue had a lot of ideas since she was a child, she had already identified her sweetheart, how could her family practice herself like this for money. Then he had the idea of committing suicide, sent his subordinates away, stabbed a sharp knife into the abdomen, and committed suicide!

At this moment, the Xie family exploded, and everyone didn't expect Xie Xiaoyue to be so resolute, and they were embarrassed here. The Xie family is even more embarrassed, the happy event has become a funeral, not to mention the dowry, the Xie family will also be criticized, after all, Xie Xiaoyue is still very famous in Jiangnan, a well-known talented woman, was forced to death by her greedy and shameless family, is there anything more exciting to talk about?

Annoyed, the Xie family didn't even collect Xie Xiaoyue's corpse, so it was so miserably discarded in her boudoir. It was still her mother's old housekeeper who saw this and collected the corpse in grief. Because the head of the Xie family, who is also her eldest brother, was furious and did not allow Xie Xiaoyue to be buried in the ancestral grave, the old housekeeper had to find someone to handle the funeral by himself, and now he is looking for a coffin, and the person is still in the suburbs of Yizhuang, waiting for tomorrow's burial!

Bailiyun found Yizhuang in a trance all the way under the guidance of Xiaoju, and saw the old housekeeper and Xie Xiaoyue lying quietly in the coffin next to the old housekeeper.

Although he is dead and his face is pale, he can vaguely see the pretty face of the past, and Bailiyun seems to have returned to the original meeting in Chang'an.

"You're finally here! Hey, the sky has no eyes, it's just one day away! The old housekeeper shouted in pain when he saw Bailiyun.

"Hey, good people don't live long! Fortunately, she was able to meet before the burial, which can be regarded as a piece of infatuation of the young lady, presumably, she has no regrets underground! This was written by the young lady before she died, and the old slave put it away after reading it, and now I will hand it over to you, Lord Baili! The old butler sighed with emotion, and took out a handkerchief tremblingly.

"You know me?" Bailiyun took the handkerchief and said suspiciously.

"The old slave Sun Fugui is the housekeeper brought by the young lady's mother's family, and he grew up watching the young lady since he was a child. When I first went to Chang'an, I was by Miss's side, and one night, Miss and I were calculating the goods in the inn, and we happened to see Lord Baili killing dozens of assassins outside the Prince's Mansion. Later, Miss saw you again, and I secretly looked for someone to smell it, so I know adults! Sun Fugui recalled.

"Kill the assassins? It was that night, no wonder she seemed to know me at the beginning, it turned out that we had already met, and I didn't know it! As soon as he said this, Bai Liyun immediately understood, presumably when King Qin was killed, he was a guard general in King Qin's mansion, and he killed countless assassin scouts outside the mansion one night, but he didn't expect that someone would see it not far behind him. It's a coincidence, after all, it's so dark and the inn is far away, who knew it would be so coincidental!

But it's too late to say anything now, Bailiyun shook his head and opened the handkerchief.

The handkerchief was exactly the same as the one he got in Chang'an, embroidered with a green bamboo, and a thank you embroidered in the lower right corner. The difference is that in the blank space, there is an extra line of words!

"Evil, I want to know you and live a long life. The mountains are edgeless, the rivers are exhausted, the thunder and earthquakes in winter, and the rain and snow in summer. Heaven and earth are together, but dare to be with the king! The concubine has no fate, and she looks forward to flying with you in the next life, cherished! Yunlang, drinking alone under the moon, is it lonely? ”

Under Juanxiu's Xiaokai, a song of evil spirits, expressing Xie Xiaoyue's endless sorrow buried in his heart, the tears of Bailiyun were flowing horizontally, and the sentence of loneliness reminded him of his situation in another world without roots and ping, his liver and intestines were torn, and his grief was inexplicable!

I didn't expect to finally have someone who understood me, but why did he leave him so quickly?

Clenched the handkerchief tightly, Bailiyun looked at Xie Xiaoyue's pale face in the coffin, his eyes were red, he caressed Xie Xiaoyue's face, and said in a hoarse voice: "How can you not be lonely when you go?" (To be continued.) )
