Some people say that Shao Si Ming is still alive, but he is hiding in the mountains.

Some say she died, leaving not even a body.

Either way, M Mohammed didn't want to believe it.

However, with the death of Emperor Taizu and the Great Secretary Lin Shubai one after another, the sudden turmoil took away everyone's ability to think, and she was even more coerced into her hell, and she no longer had time to think about the short-lived girl.

Until today.

"Mother?"

Stroking his little daughter's soft hair, Muhammad snapped back to his senses and looked at his wrinkled palm.

What's wrong with you?

Why do you suddenly remember what happened so long ago, why do you suddenly remember......

"Mu Rongyin, do you want to go home?"

Mu Shi was shocked, and those eyes suddenly appeared in front of him.

It belongs to the girl.

Clear and clear eyes.

No matter how dark it was, only her eyes seemed to be untainted by anything.

It's like ...... It's like you don't belong to the same world.

The sudden feeling was strange and familiar, familiar enough to take her back nine years ago, to see the moment when the girl in the fire drew her sword.

It was Muhammad's first encounter with the power of the world's top cultivators, and almost as soon as she saw that back, she understood how stupid and ignorant she and the noblewomen who had laughed and ridiculed the young girl were.

The county lord of Zhaoyang never participated in the tea party and poetry party of the nobles of the capital, let alone chanted poems with them to make calligraphy and painting and made tea, and was ridiculed by the nobles as a freak without the slightest upbringing and daughter's family ability.

The girl never clarified and never participated in these tea parties in order to prove her ability, so that the claims that those Zhaoyang County Lords who flowed out of the palace actually knew these skills were self-defeating.

After all, if it will, why not show it?

But why did she show it?

On that day, when he saw the girl's back and the flames soaring into the sky around her, even from so far away, he could feel the momentum that seemed to destroy the world, and Mu suddenly understood.

The girl was not in the same world as them in the first place.

At that time, almost everyone around Mu said that the county lord of Zhaoyang agreed to the emperor's eldest son's marriage for the position of queen, but when he saw her sword, Mu realized that this matter was ridiculous.

If Shao Si ordered Lin Baoyue to have that intention, he could even easily destroy the entire palace.

So what does the position of the queen count for her?

And the girl who saved her children......

Mu Shi looked at Gui Li and suddenly clenched his chest, everyone said that being able to marry Chunhuajun was the marriage of the vase princess, but only the people in this small courtyard understood why the girl agreed to this marriage contract.

The young woman took a deep breath. After leaving Guiyang City nine years ago, she had never seen a woman like that who seemed to be burning.

Until today.

Until one day her son walked into the house and carried the girl back.

She saw such a woman again.

But what will happen to the girl who returns to the capital for her and her children? Do you still want to be the same as nine years ago, just watching everything happen?

She......

"Big brother?" At this moment, the voice of Gui Li's surprise interrupted Muhammad's thoughts, and Muhammad raised his head in a daze, looking at his son's tall back in the morning light.

"Big brother, what did you see?"

I saw Guichen, who was originally sitting on the steps and watching, and stood up at the corner of the wall near the courtyard door.

That corner...... It was where the girl used to sit.

A premonition suddenly surged in Mu's heart, and he suddenly ran out of the kitchen without bothering to wipe his hands, and Gui Li followed behind with wide eyes and shouted, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

Mu Shi had not run for many years, and when everyone was beautiful, he had to pay attention to his demeanor when he was beautiful, and he had to pay attention to decency when he was the eldest lady, but at this time, looking at his son who rushed down the steps in the morning light, Mu had only one thought in his heart.

To hell with it!

The morning breeze brushed her already wrinkled cheeks, but M Mohammed felt her heart beat faster than at any other time in her youth.

However, her pace is still not as fast as her grown son.

Mu stood still and looked at his son, who was crouching down in front of the corner, raising his hand in a daze to touch a scratch in the corner, and watching Guichen's fingertips touch the ...... carved deep in the corner Handwriting.

"It's her ......," Muhammad breathed heavily.

"Hmm." Guichen squatted on the ground and stretched out his hand to touch the ravine on the wall bricks, "Mother, I actually saw it just now." ”

This corner was where Ying Baoyue used to sit in his house before, and he had been resisting looking at it these days. But just now, a beam of sunlight pierced Guichen's eyes, and he turned around and seemed to see something in his blurred vision.

There were traces on the wall in that corner.

Then he saw it, and saw the handwriting left by the girl on the wall.

Guichen's heart was beating violently.

It was the girl who used to inadvertently draw on the wall with her hand when she was thinking about things, and it left scratches over time.

And it was at this time that he found out.

That's two words.

And those two words she wrote on the wall of his house were.

"Freedom."

She had a great desire to be free.

But for their sake.

gave up her freedom.

Gui Li, who chased the door out of the door, stopped abruptly, stood behind his brother and followed the sliding of Guichen's fingers, staring at the blurred handwriting.

The young man's fingers still had blood blisters left by the skipping rope, and the blood blisters grazed the mottled ravines on the wall, one after another, as if there were still youthful wishes and temperatures.

Guichen suddenly let out a loud roar, jumped up from the ground, and then rushed back to the house, Ping Pong began to collect things.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Gui Li's body was full of excitement, and he turned back suddenly.

There was a pause in the room, and Guichen appeared at the door with a bundle of hemp rope on his body, looking at Gui Li fixedly.

"I'm going to Nanchu."

What?

Gui Li's eyes widened in astonishment, although Gui Chen had said that he was going to Nanchu very early, but what was he going to do all of a sudden?

At this moment, she saw the hemp rope on Guichen's shoulder, and Guili suddenly understood something, and the brother and sister looked at each other quietly in the courtyard.

"Big brother, you ......"

Gui Li looked at Gui Chen and asked quietly.

"Are you going to chase her?"

Guichen's shoulders shook, but the next moment he looked at his sister and spoke seriously.

"No, I'm going to chase my dreams."

That unknown girl awakened his dream.

"I'm going to Nanchu to attend the Beginner Ceremony." Guichen looked at his sister and laughed, this was the first time he had laughed in half a month.

The boy's smile did not have the slightest haze in the sun.

Guili looked at her brother's smile and was stunned, but the next moment she remembered something, "Wait, big brother, but you're not a cultivator yet!" ”

Guichen had already turned around and walked into the house, saying as he went, "There will always be a way, I'll talk about it when I get there." ”

When did his eldest brother become so crazy, Gui Li looked at Mu Shi behind him, then looked at Gui Chen's back, and said with a complicated expression, "Big brother, do you really want to leave this house?" ”

Guichen paused, turned to look at Mu Shi in the courtyard, he bit his lip and his eyes were full of apologies and struggles.

Mother and son looked at each other quietly, and the next moment, without waiting for her already grown son to speak, Mu suddenly smiled.

"Chen'er, you can go."

Mu Shi looked at his son, who had grown up, and the pain that had accumulated in his heart for half a month seemed to dissipate in an instant.

The world, and people, is subject to change.

She can change too.

Mu Shi walked up the steps and reached out to touch Guichen's cheek, "You just go, leave me alone, my mother can ...... herself"

At this moment, there was a sudden knock at the door, and Mu Shi and the others turned around, only to find a dusty young man standing at the gate of the courtyard.

"Are you ......" Guili was startled, and suddenly looked back at the stranger at the gate of the courtyard, saying that he did hear the sound of carriages just now, but their family never came, and Guili thought it was passing by.

But he didn't expect the carriage to stop at his doorstep.

"This son, ...... are you" Gui Li was about to continue asking, but he didn't expect his mother's trembling voice to come from behind him.

"Sixteen...... Sixteenth brother? ”

Sixteenth brother?

Both Guili and Guichen were stunned, and looked stiffly at Mu Shi, who was walking towards the entrance of the courtyard in disbelief.

The young man in the cloak at the entrance of the courtyard also had some red circles in his eyes, and he bowed and looked up at Muhammad.

"It's been a long time, Seventh Sister."

Seventh sister?

Mother's brother?

It was the first time since Guili and Guichen saw Mu's mother's family, and they didn't know how to react for a while.

Mu Shi trembled as he walked towards the young man at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the carriage at the door as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

"You, why are you here?"

The young man took out a bloodstained strip of cloth from his bosom, his eyes solemn.

"I received a letter from Her Royal Highness the princess at home, and my father sent me to ...... after reading it."

The man's voice paused, and he looked firmly at the young woman, "Let me take you home." ”

Her Royal Highness the Princess?

Mu Shi looked at the strip of cloth in the man's hand, trembling and stretched out his hand to take it, and after reading the handwriting on it and the emblem of the royal family on the blood seal, at this moment, she finally burst into tears.

At the last moment of leaving, the girl had arranged all her paths.

What qualifications do you have to stop?

The man at the gate of the courtyard held Mu Shi's shoulder, "Although this matter is undecided, my father said that since someone from the royal family has spoken, the Mu family can get rid of the restrictions, and it will be worth it to bring you back no matter what the price is." ”

The Mu family is not without strength, but they are trapped in the loyalty of the monarch and the ministers and cannot make a move.

But now, the girl has cut it with her own hands.

Guili looked at his mother's trembling shoulders, looked at his brother who walked to his side, and suddenly spoke.

"Big brother, I'll go with you."

The thirteen-year-old girl's eyes were firm, "I'm going to Nanchu too." ”

Muhammad turned to look at his little daughter, who had suddenly grown up.

"Mother, you and your uncle should go back." Guili watched his mother kneel down and kowtow.

"You've done enough for us."

"In the future, please think only about yourself."

"My daughter is not filial and wants to go out and have a look."

Guichen looked at his sister as if he had known her for the first time, but the next moment he took a deep breath and knelt down beside her.

"Return, have you thought about it?"

"Don't underestimate me." Gui Limu didn't squint, "I've been bored after staying here for thirteen years, are you allowed to go out and I am not allowed to go out?" ”

Guichen smiled bitterly, "This journey is not a joke. ”

"Of course I do." Gui Li said to him like a bicker, but the next moment the little girl lowered her eyes slightly and spoke softly.

"I want to see her again."

Guichen was stunned for a moment, and the next moment he knelt on the ground and looked at his mother, kowtowed three times and looked up.

"Mother, my sister will be handed over to me, you can go back with your uncle with peace of mind."

In the morning light, the boy was still the same boy, but his gaze was as firm as that of an adult man.

Muhammad took a deep breath and felt proud from the bottom of his heart. She wiped away her tears and nodded, looking at her other daughter who had walked behind her to return to her home.

"Wen Ning, what about you?"

The little girl who was holding the bean dustpan shook her shoulder, and at this time she was exactly as tall as Guichen Guili who was kneeling on the ground.

Guichen looked at this woman with a complicated expression, and rescued the six-year-old girl who came to his house later.

The child should have had the same mixed feelings for the woman as her sister, and she should ......

However, at this moment, Xu Wenning's hand holding the dustpan tightened, and his gaze moved from Guichen's face to Mu Shi.

"I ...... I won't go to Nanchu. ”

Guichen was shocked, and looked at the little girl in disbelief, "You ......"

"Honestly, I ...... I want to go," Xu Wenning bit her lips, but she looked down at her tiny hands and feet.

In the days after returning home, she already knew who that sister was, and she understood where the woman told her to go that day was far away. If she could see her again, she would do her best to go.

But she hasn't forgotten what her sister said that day.

"But now I'm going to pull my brother's back." Xu Wenning hated more than ever why his hands were so small and his legs were short.

With her, Guichen and Guili may not be able to catch up with their sister at all.

"My sister is very fast." Xu Wenning looked up at Guichen, tears oozed from the corners of his eyes, but he tried hard to wipe them away with the back of his hand, "When I grow up a little more, I'll chase you." ”

"Hmm." Guichen knelt on the ground and looked at the little girl in front of him, "Let's chase her first, she doesn't want to run away alone." ”

"It's an appointment." Xu Wenning burst into tears and laughed, stretched out his little finger and pulled the hook of Guichen.

Guichen smiled and pulled the hook with her, and then Mu walked up to the three of them and stretched out two hands to Guichen and Guili respectively.

Guichen Guili stood up holding his mother's hand.

Mu Shi looked at his daughter, who was about to be taller, and his son, who was taller than her, and smiled and spoke.

"Go and do what you want."

Then she stretched out her hand to Xu Wenning, "I'll take you home to meet your grandfather." ”

The morning light hit the faces of the four, and everyone had tears in their eyes, but there was also a smile on their faces, bright and without the slightest haze.

On this day, as night fell, a carriage left the homecoming courtyard.

A brother and sister stood side by side at the empty gate of the courtyard, watching their mother and little sister's carriage leave.

"Speaking of which, I've never seen my grandfather look like him." Seeing the carriage gradually disappearing, Gui Li stood beside Gui Chen and suddenly spoke.

"Do you regret it?" Guichen looked sideways at his sister.

"How so." Guili looked up at the bright moon in the sky, "I'm just doing what I want, and when I want to see my grandfather, I will naturally go to see him." ”

There is nothing in this world that can stop her.

And it was the girl who taught her all this.

"Let's go, big brother," Guili stretched out his hand to take Guichen's hand, "let's go see her." ”

"Hmm," Guichen clenched his sister's hand and looked up at the bright moon in the sky as well.

He was just a son of a family who was not favored and was no different from a commoner.

He couldn't give her freedom.

But at least.

He can chase his own freedom.

He has a choice.

Be there for her.

……

……

The wind is blowing.

Just when a pair of brothers and sisters in the distance were leaving their hometown, Ying Baoyue, who was lying in a palace, quietly opened her eyes.

She turned over and sat up to look at the moonlight outside the hall, the night of the new moon had just passed, she originally thought that there was no moonlight, but she didn't expect the hook moon to be so bright.

Tomorrow should be a good day.

Well, good for travel.

"Your Highness? What happened to you? Sensing the movement of the people in the bed, the sound of the palace maid shaking and swaying was immediately heard outside.

This is really strict enough, it seems that I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at her every move on the bed.

I wish she was lying motionless on the bed.

Ying hugged Yue and sat on the bed to support her forehead, the problem was that she couldn't sleep at all so early.

At this time, Shen Shi had just passed the moonlight, and she was locked up in this palace and ordered to sleep, preparing to be packed and sent to Nanchu to marry early the next morning.

What's going on? Ying Baoyue sat on the bed and recalled everything that happened during the day, and could only sigh again, what was it.

Ying Baoyue never thought that her first meeting with Ying Hanri would end so quickly.

Yes, it has only been an hour since Yinghan rushed down in front of the main hall to slap him empty.

And at that time, when Ying Hanri's eyes widened, trembling and pointing at her and she didn't know what to say, Ying Baoyue recalled some bad memories because she saw his face, and was thinking about whether she should faint from the fatigue of the journey, so as to avoid this embarrassing first meeting.

She hasn't fainted yet.

Ying Hanri suddenly fainted.

What's going on?

Ying Baoyue's eyes widened, and with the panicked shouts of the palace doctor, the surroundings were suddenly in chaos.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”

"Your Majesty hasn't slept well these days, and now he's angry again, oops! Your Majesty! ”

"Doctor, doctor!"

Guichang held Ying Hanri, who fell softly, and looked at Ying Baoyue on the side with his chest undulating, "Come on, first ask Her Royal Highness the princess to go back to the palace to rest!" ”

Then she was taken to the original dormitory of this little princess by the palace people and guarded it strictly.

And just half an hour ago, a eunuch came to deliver the decree, saying that Ying Hanri had woken up but didn't want to see her, and told her that he had sent a letter of state to Nanchu overnight, and she would immediately leave for Nanchu early tomorrow morning.

Above.

How much does her brother want to marry her to Nanchu immediately.

Ying Baoyue sighed in her heart for the little princess who had died, and looked at the palace overhead.

In any case, she didn't expect to return to this palace after nine years, but she could only stay here for one night.

Tomorrow morning she will leave for another country to fulfill her marriage contract.

Married?

Ying Baoyue herself did not resist going to Nanchu, it is better to say that she thought about it when she rescued Guichen and left, although this marriage contract was troublesome, but she planned to go to Nanchu to participate in the primary ceremony, and this trip to harmony can be regarded as a smooth way.

However, she doesn't plan to marry anyone again.

She didn't want to hurt anyone anymore.

Ying Baoyue looked at the cold moonlight outside the palace, staying in this palace, she couldn't fall asleep at all.

This palace is called Taishi Palace, and now lives Princess Baoyue, but twenty years ago, it was the residence of the emperor's eldest son, Yingsu, before leaving the palace.

She will go to Nanchu, but she will find a way to dissolve this marriage contract.

The reconciliation between Former Qin and Southern Chu was useless, not to mention marrying the Southern Chu National Teacher, the youngest son of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

She actually wants to marry Ji Mo's son?

Ying Baoyue felt crying and laughing when she thought about it.

Southern Chu National Teacher, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, named Ji Mo.

He was one of the most hated men in Yinghuyue's previous life.

I really didn't expect that she would one day have such a relationship with Ji Mo's son, should I say that it was his youngest son.

When she heard that the marriage contract was the son of the Southern Chu Guoshi, Ying Baoyue immediately confirmed with Gui Li, and the one who had a marriage contract with her was the youngest son.

After listening to her, she breathed a long sigh of relief, helpless and a little happy at the same time.

Although she didn't plan to marry, if it was Ji Mo's eldest son, she really didn't know how to face it.

Because the mother of the eldest son of Ji Mo, the national teacher of Southern Chu, is no one else.

Ying Baoyue took a deep breath.

It was her master, the Great Si Ming Lin Shubai.

Lin Shubai, the chief secretary, and Ji Mo were a lover and fiancé in their early years, but they did not get married for various reasons.

Then Ji Mo married another woman, and the master never married but had children out of wedlock, and there were a pair of children between the two.

It was Ji Mo's eldest son and eldest daughter.

Because of the resistance in his heart, Ying Baoyue didn't pay attention to what children Ji Mo and the others had after that, let alone the youngest son.

And from the information of the return, Ying Baoyue learned that Ji Mo's youngest son and the master's youngest daughter were only one year apart, and she was even worse, plus she didn't plan to have anything to do with this marriage contract at that time, so she didn't care about her fiancé anymore.

But now it's different, if you want to settle the marriage contract, Ji Mo's problem will be put aside first, and she needs to confirm what kind of person her fiancé is.

Gui Li only said that he was a young genius, but this evaluation did not play a role in Ying Baoyue. There are more young geniuses in the family.

Ji Mo's youngest son......

Ying Baoyue took a deep breath, and it was at this time that she suddenly realized something.

Teenage genius?

Imperial concubine?

Without waiting for her to think about it, Xu was sitting up for too long, a thin hand suddenly reached into the gauze curtain next to her bed, Ying Baoyue looked at the side of the bed, and the uneasy face of a middle-aged female official came into her eyes.

"Your Highness, you, are you alright? Do you want to drink water? ”

Ying Baoyue looked at her and smiled, "It's not good." ”

She's not very good.

The female officer didn't expect the princess to speak so bluntly, so she was stunned and comforted, "Your Highness, you ...... Don't think about it too much, Your Majesty is all for your good, Chunhuajun of Southern Chu is one of the six sons of the Warring States, and that is the husband that all women dream of......"

According to this female official's own understanding, even if she marries far away, this husband can't be found with a lantern, so what's wrong......

However, the girl in front of her interrupted her and looked straight at her.

"Since he said that he was the sixth prince of the Warring States, then the name of Chunhuajun should be his nickname, right?"

The female officer looked at Ying Baoyue and nodded stunned.

How? Didn't His Highness know about it?

Ying Baoyue's heart jumped, and she looked at the female officer in front of her and asked.

"Then this Chunhuajun, what's his name?"

The female officer was even more confused, but looked at Ying Baoyue's eyes and involuntarily spoke.

"Chunhuajun is the second son of Lord Ji Mo, and his name is ......"

The female officer paused word by word and said the name that everyone in the world knew.

"Ji Jiashu."

Ying Baoyue was shocked.

The sight before her eyes flashed, the bright red star on the banyan tree flashed, and the young man's pleasant voice rang in her ears.

"I am ......"

He said.

"Ji Jiashu."

……

……

"Katsuki? What happened to you? ”

In the Southern Chu National Teacher's Mansion, among a pair of teenagers who were admiring the moon under the eaves, the older one suddenly looked at his friend who was distracted.

Ji Jiashu had just recovered from the memories of the conversation with the woman named Teng Snake, and looked at the friend around him.

"Zichu, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong with me, you ask? How have you been wandering all day and night, and what are you thinking? ”

Chen Zichu, the eldest son of Nanchu Grand Sima, looked at the most prestigious son of their country's national teacher speechlessly, and then he suddenly remembered something and suddenly realized, and said with a smile.

"I didn't expect to find it, the princess of Qianqin's harmony is coming," the young man sighed as he patted Ji Jiashu's shoulder.

"Katsuki, you're about to marry that princess of the moon, are you happy?"
