In the imperial study of the Luoyang Imperial Palace.

Yang Tong was sitting next to the bookcase, boredly flipping through the folds in his hand, looking out of the door from time to time, a month ago he learned that the Zhang family had returned to the Hongxing Courtyard from the Turks, and he didn't even go to the early court, so he secretly changed his clothes and entered the Hongxing Courtyard, and saw Sister Zhang, who he thought about day and night.

Knowing her various experiences in the Turks, Yang Tong was so excited that he couldn't wait to join her in appreciating the desolation of the Loess Plateau, the magnificence of the grasslands, and her thrilling adventures and encounters.

Especially when Zhang mentioned that Zhen Mingku would bring back a mysterious guest he knew when he came back, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and immediately guessed that this mysterious guest was his sister Fulin, who had been married to the Turks for many years, and was so excited that he screamed and jumped, how could he have a trace of stability as an emperor, and immediately sent people to Hangu Pass, guarding the important transportation arteries in the west, and as soon as Zhen Mingku entered the customs, he quickly came to report, and he went out of the city to greet him.

It's a pity that more than ten days have passed, and there is still no news of Zhen Mingku's suffering and his blessing sister.

Wang Shichong ignored his opposition, ordered the blockade of the water and land roads west of Hangu Pass, in order to prevent the influx of refugees into Luoyang, anyone who wants to pass the blockade, it is not so easy, according to Wang Shichong, Luoyang is already a refugee trouble, public security chaos, if you do not stop the influx of refugees, lest the spies of other forces mix into Luoyang, plotting against evil.

"Could it be that he was blocked out of Hangu Pass and couldn't enter the customs, so he didn't return for a long time?"

Yang Tong muttered to himself, couldn't sit still anymore, and shouted, "Someone!" ”

A man with a whisk in his hand and a robe on his father's robe pushed open the door and walked in.

"Bring King Xuan to the palace for an audience."

The father-in-law did not receive the order, did not say a word, lowered his head and walked straight towards Yang Tong, and when Yang Tong realized that the father-in-law was wrong, the father-in-law suddenly rushed to him, covered his mouth, and revealed a familiar face.

"Don't shout, it's me."

Yang Tong looked at it calmly, his expression was stunned, the man in front of him gave him a familiar feeling, his eyes were sharp, his expression was resolute, with a hint, compared to three years ago, he was much stronger, and he had a more calm and solemn atmosphere, although the change was not small, but he could still recognize the iconic scar on his face at a glance, who was Zhen Mingku?

I haven't seen each other for three years, and the two of them have changed a lot, he is no longer the young man who was clamoring to see Zhang's bath, and he is no longer the second child of the blacksmith shop who was so thin that he could be blown down by a gust of wind.

Yang Tong looked excited, and couldn't hide the surprise of seeing Zhen Mingku again.

Zhen Ming knew that he recognized himself, let go of the hand covering his mouth, and as soon as he let go, Yang Tong couldn't wait to ask: "Brother Zhen, where is Sister Fulin?" Did she come back with you? ”

Zhen Ming was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then realized that Yang Tong must have learned the news from the Zhang family, and asked with a smile: "How many days has your sister Zhang been back?" ”

"It's been more than a month, why did you come back, how did you get in, there are Wang Shichong's guards everywhere here, you take me to see Sister Fulin."

"Shhhh

……

Yang Tong followed Zhen Mingku, out of the imperial study, there were two unconscious guards lying on the ground at the door, along the way, Yang Tong was secretly surprised, how could this Zhen Mingku, how could this Zhen Mingku, know the terrain of this palace so well, even he, the little prince who had lived here, was not as familiar as him.

How did he know that Zhen Mingku only needed to open the offline satellite map on his mobile phone to find the map of Luoyang Palace, although it was a little different from the reality, but it was not far from ten.

Zhen Mingku took him all the way to avoid the patrolling guards, and arrived at the side of the imperial city wall, and in a bush by the city wall, there was a sleeping woman, Zhen Mingku walked over and picked her up.

"Lead the way to your bedchamber."

……

Yang Tong sat next to a dragon couch in the East Palace's Yangxin Palace, holding one of Ma Niu'er's hands tightly.

He had been sitting on the edge of the bed for an hour, just looking at Ma Niu'er's sleeping face, motionless, as if he was in a daze.

In his impression, Fulin was still the way she looked when she got married when he was seven years old, just turned fifteen years old, with a lovely baby fat on his face, but he was already a very beautiful beauty embryo, with a graceful and plump figure, a white complexion like clotted fat, and a language like a warbler swallow out of the valley, he was the most beautiful person in his heart.

Now that almost ten years have passed, he can't recognize her a little, and her pretty face is still delicate and beautiful after being carved by the wind and frost outside the plug, which makes her more mature and more charming.

Still, he could recognize her at a glance.

Zhen Ming sat on the side yawning, really bored, and couldn't help but say: "Look slowly, she is now out of her mind, and she may not know you when she wakes up in a while, don't make a fuss and scare her, don't rush to recognize her, think about something that can make her remember you, take her to some places where she once lived, and see if you can remind her of the past." ”

Yang Tong stood up at this time, stretched out his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, and looked back at Zhen Mingku: "Brother Zhen, thank you, I thought I would never see my sister Fulin again in this life, do you know why she became like this?" Although she married into a wild land, she is a Turkic queen after all, so she won't have to do rough work no matter how she says it, right? ”

Zhen Ming bitterly saw him take a bite of "I", as if he had the prestige of the emperor, which made him a little unaccustomed, since he had contact with Yang Guang a few times two years ago, he has never had a good impression of the emperor, and he knows that no matter who he is, once he sits in this position, he has to learn a lot of tricks and tricks, and gradually loses his human taste.

I haven't seen him for three years, Yang Tong has obviously matured a lot, but fortunately, he still called him Brother Zhen, so that he wouldn't feel that he was too strange, and sighed: "When your sister comes to her senses, let her tell you, I'll go first, if she wakes up and keeps clamoring to find me, you say that I will come to see her in a few days." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Yang Tong to ask again, he turned around and walked out of the gate of the dormitory and disappeared into the night......

……

After three years, Luoyang Street has not changed much, but it has become more and more depressed and declined, and many shops have closed down, but the pawnshop and grain store are doing prosperous business, and the shops are repaired as new as new.

The more troubled the times are, the more prosperous the business of these necessities of life that is related to food, clothing, housing and transportation.

The signboard of the Five Grain King, where the Zhang family often went to buy soybeans, still stands, and has been replaced by a larger gold-lacquered signboard.

At the gate of the Yihong Courtyard, the lanterns were colorful, and the rich officials of Luoyang did not make the interest in eating, drinking and having fun slightly because of the chaos in the world, and it seemed that they wanted to take advantage of the defeat before the defeat, squandered all their wealth, and became more and more drunk and dreamed of death.
