Chapter 1: Returning Home

The rain stopped in the afternoon, and it fell again in the evening, crackling on the eaves of the Peach Blossom Temple, the lights in the room jumped, the closed door was opened, and the figure of a girl rushed out and ran into the heavy rain-

"Second Miss!"

A girl in the house screamed and chased out, the door opened, and the lights poured out in the room, shining the rain like a thousand threads, and the girl who ran out before seemed to be standing in a big net.

It was raining heavily, and she was only wearing a small cyan skirt, no small shirt or outer robe, which soon got wet and stuck to her body, and her figure was slender.

The girl in the room rushed out with a cloak to catch up, wrapped her in her arms, and shouted anxiously: "Second Miss, what are you going to do, your illness is not cured yet!" ”

Chen Danzhu turned her head, her eyes were like chaotic stars, her face was full of rain, and she looked at the girl she was holding: "Calm down." ”

The girl was even more panicked: "Miss, I'm Ah Tian, what is meditation?" ”

Miss has a nightmare? How did she fall asleep and suddenly get up, then yell, run out of her clothes, and now call her strange name.

Chen Danzhu shook her head vigorously, her long black hair was misty in the rain, and she shouted, "What year is it now?" What year is it? ”

The maid Ah Tian was frightened, hugged her tightly and replied, "It's been built for three years, and it's been built for three years." ”

Three years after it was built, it was three years after it was built, Chen Danzhu inhaled to calm himself down, and hugged the maid Ah Tian: "Ah Tian, don't be afraid, I'm fine, I'm just, now, I'm going home." ”

Ah Tian said: "Miss, it's raining heavily now, it's getting dark again, let's go back tomorrow, okay?" ”

No, when I go back tomorrow, my sister will leave, Chen Danzhu raised her eyebrows and shouted: "Can't you understand what I said?" I said now I'm going home, get ready for the horses! ”

Although Chen Danzhu is only fifteen years old now, she rides a horse-drawn bow and shoots arrows every day, and she has strength, she flicked her shoulder, and Ah Tian stumbled back.

Miss Chen Er has a stubborn temper, and the maid Ah Tian knows best, she doesn't dare to stop it anymore: "Please wait a moment, Miss, put on your clothes, I'll go and call people up and prepare the horses." ”

The Peach Blossom Temple is located on the mountain, and you can't ride horses, and the Taoist Temple doesn't have horses, and the male servants of the Chen family escort the chariots and horses are all under the mountain.

Chen Danzhu didn't run into the heavy rain in his underwear anymore, signaled Ah Tian to go quickly, and he went back indoors, took off his soaked clothes, and wiped them with a dry cloth.

She couldn't remember where she had left her clothes ten years ago.

Ah Tian was anxious, panicked and funny, and wrapped Chen Danzhu in the quilt: "If you do this again, you will be really sick." ”

Chen Danzhu remembered why he came to Peach Blossom Temple this time, not because the world said to recuperate, but because he wanted to go to the army like his brother and brother-in-law, and was scolded by his father Chen Liehu, and ran away from home to come to Peach Blossom View in a fit of anger.

Peach Blossom Mountain is Chen's private property, Peach Blossom View is a family temple, Peach Blossom Mountain is the only way to enter Beijing, there are mountains and rivers and people come and go, she likes to be lively and often come here to play.

It's just that this time when I come, and when I go back, it's the corpse of a family.

Chen Danzhu took a deep breath, Ah Tian dressed her, the footsteps outside the door were chaotic, and other maids and servants rushed over, carrying lamps and hats, and the sleepiness on their faces had not yet dissipated.

I don't know why Miss Chen Er is making trouble in the middle of the night, or going home when it rains heavily, maybe she is too homesick?

Miss Chen Er is too arrogant and says nothing at home.

Mrs. Chen died of dystocia when she gave birth to the second lady, Mrs. Chen's grief no longer continued, Mrs. Chen was frail and sick and had long been at home, Mrs. Chen's two brothers were not good at meddling in the long room, and Mrs. Chen cherished this little daughter, although the eldest lady took care of her, the second lady was still raised recklessly.

They gathered around Chen Danzhu and put on clogs, and braved the heavy rain to go down the mountain.

The servants had already been notified to go down the mountain first, and when Chen Danzhu and his party came to the bottom of the mountain, the scorching oil torches and horse guards were all ready to go.

"Second Miss, it's raining too much." One of the guards shouted, "Get in the car." ”

Chen Danzhu had already grabbed a horse: "It's too slow to ride, I'll ride a horse, and the others will stay here." ”

Ah Tian was also busy catching a horse, as Chen Danzhu's maid, horseback riding is a necessary skill, and she can follow back.

The guards didn't say anything anymore, and ran in the direction of the city with Chen Danzhu in their arms, leaving the others and Peach Blossom Guan behind.

The rain was too heavy, Chen Danzhu felt the rain pouring in through her clothes, and her face was also hurt by the rain, everything reminded her that this was not a dream.

Chen Danzhu doesn't care if it's a dream or not, even if it's a dream, she has to work hard to do it.

In front of the gallop, you can faintly see the huge city entrenched, like a glass lantern in the heavy rain.

Wu is a city that never sleeps.

Although in the past few decades, there has been a chaotic war between the five countries, and now there are three kings and Qingjun sides, and the court has accused the three kings of rebellion, and there has not been a day of peace, but for Wu State, the stable life has not been affected.

Those chaotic battles have nothing to do with them, Wu has the Yangtze River, and once the Jiangkou is stationed, it can't fly with wings, and some come here and there, and they are all quickly beaten away - although Mrs. Chen's son died in battle, but there is nothing to kill in battle, and I can only blame Mrs. Chen's son for his bad luck.

Because the army of the imperial court was approaching, just a few days ago, at the strong request of his father, King Wu ordered the implementation of a curfew, which caused a lot of complaints.

The people complained about the inconvenience of life, the officials complained that it would cause chaos and panic, and King Wu regretted it when he heard the complaints, maybe the night market will be reopened in the next few days, so that everyone can return to their usual lives-

What is there to fear from the soldiers and horses of the imperial court? The emperor has more than a dozen counties in his hands, and he does not raise as many soldiers and horses as a vassal state, not to mention that the Zhou State and the Qi State are also facing the imperial court.

In short, no one would have thought that the imperial court would really be able to fight this time, let alone that all this would happen more than ten days later, first the sudden flooding, Wu Di instantly fell into chaos, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were vulnerable in the face of the flood, and then the country was breached, and the king of Wu was killed.

Chen Danzhu took a deep breath, and the wind poured in with the rain, making her cough repeatedly.

"Miss!" Ah Tian shouted, "It's coming soon." ”

Chen Danzhu looked ahead, the glass world was in front of him, whether the city gate was closed or the curfew was curfew, it didn't matter to the guards of the Chen family.

They stepped forward to call the door, and when they heard that it was someone from the Taifu family, the guards didn't even ask, so they let them pass.

Chen Danzhu was angry and wanted to scold the guards, this is how you guard the city gate? But it's sad, what's the use of her scolding, because of its superior position, Wu Guo has been in a good position for decades, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the country is rich and has many soldiers, and the top and bottom are used to slacking.

She held the reins and galloped home against the wind and rain, near Miyagi - well, it was the general's mansion where Li Liang lived.

All the people of the Chen family were killed, the house was also burned, and the emperor demolished and rebuilt it after moving the capital, and gave it to Li Liang as a mansion.

When Chen Danzhu and his party approached, the Chen family's mansion had already been checked by guards, and they were all startled when they found that it was Miss Chen Er who had returned.

"Homesick in the middle of the night?"

"The second lady has only been out for three days this time, and it's the first time I've been homesick."

The whispers of the guards, the concierge of the Chen family were surprised, and they looked at Chen Danzhu who jumped off the horse and was soaked.

Chen Danzhu looked at the house in front of her, where did she go for three days and come back, she went for ten years and came back.

"The boss is going to sleepβ€”" the butler ushered in, "to wake up?" ”

Although it is not good for the body to disturb the boss, if the daughter misses her father and rushes back overnight, the boss must be happy.

The most important thing now is not to see his father, Chen Danzhu strode inward and asked, "Where is my sister?" ”

Mrs. Chen has two daughters and a son, the eldest daughter Chen Danyan is married, and Li Liang has another mansion and is harmonious and beautiful, in the same national capital, she can go back to her parents' house at any time, and often take Chen Danzhu over, but as a married daughter, she rarely comes back to live.

The second lady actually knew that the eldest lady was back, and the eldest lady came back this afternoon, the housekeeper was very surprised, and hurriedly said: "I heard that the second miss went to the Peach Blossom Temple, and the eldest lady came back to see if she was not at ease." ”

Chen Danzhu sighed in her heart, her sister was not worried about her father, but came to steal her father's seal.

"I'm going to see my sister." She hurried inward.

The lights flickered in the heavy rain, and a group of people ushered in.

"Azhu!" A female voice pierced through the wind and rain, "Why are you back?" ”

Chen Danzhu looked ahead, and a tall white-clothed beauty swayed in the shadow of the tree.

Chen Danzhu was stunned for a moment, and strode towards her.

"Sister!"

She threw herself over, the rain on her body and the tears on her face all sprinkled into the arms of the white-clothed beauty, feeling the warm and soft embrace of her sister.

She wished to go to Huangquan to reunite with her family, but she did not expect to return to the yang world to reunite with her living family.
