Lie Zhanhu stepped forward, his eyes like a torch and a knife stayed on January for a moment, and after confirming that the person in front of him was not threatening, he slowly stepped forward, "It was Tong'er, Ah Fang hasn't returned for a long time, I'm really not at ease, there is nothing to do at night, so I came out to take a look." ”

Bu Tong looked up at the dark sky above his head, and suddenly said other,

"I'm afraid it's going to snow, and there are three days before the Xia Yuan Festival, if this first snow falls, the girls and ladies will go to put the river lanterns It must be very beautiful,"

Turning his head to look at Lie Zhanhu, "General Lie, time will only cover up something, and it will not melt away with it, after this incident, don't you want to change anything?" ”

Lie Zhanhu looked at Yun Fang, who was swaying on January's shoulder, and suddenly, the high-spirited general looked sad, "Ah Fang is my only relative, why don't I want to enjoy the joy of family, it's just that the siege of Kyoto that year, Xi'er died in front of me, that's the little sister I grew up with, but I can't do anything, the people of Beiliang want to exchange the twelve cities in the northwest for a return to Kyoto, I can't agree, no one knows, how much I want him to return to his side, but the twelve cities on the border, How many soldiers' bones are piled up, that's the backbone of Kyoto City, I can't, I can't change ......"

Yun Fang was on January's shoulders for too long, and finally couldn't help but wake up, Bu Tong turned his head slightly,

"In January, let go of the cloud commander, and he'll be home."

The deserted foot of the city, the empty street, the heavy inky black sky, Bu Tong sighed leisurely,

"This environment is rendered, and if you don't feel a little sad, I'm really sorry for God's good intentions."

Yunfang stood unsteadily, sat down on the ground at once, saw that he was fine, and retreated to the dark after a salute in January, Lie Zhanhu looked at the people on the ground, and finally bent over to help,

"Ah Fang, go home."

"If you don't go home, I don't have a home," Yun Fang pushed Lie Zhanhu away with the strength of the wine, and muttered while breathing heavily in his mouth, "I don't have a home, you don't want me anymore, mother, father, uncle, you don't want me anymore." ”

Lie Zhanhu was stabbed in the part of his heart that had not healed for a long time, his brows furrowed slightly, he knelt down heavily in front of him, stretched out his hand and pressed Yun Fang's shoulder, his voice trembled faintly, "Ah Fang, I'm sorry." ”

This kneeling also startled Bu Tong and Chun Tao, and they resolutely took half a step back in unison, not daring to disturb this moment of breaking through the previous suspicions.

Yun Fang was half awakened by Lie Zhanhu's movements, and he knelt down in front of Lie Zhanhu after climbing a few cymbals, and suddenly began to cry, crying for a long time, and began to speak in bits and pieces, "Uncle, in fact, I know that you are right, the responsibility on your shoulders is the people of the whole country, I have always known that you are right, but you are my only uncle, my mother left me, how can you put up with me......"

Seeing this, Bu Tong breathed a sigh of relief, pulled Chun Tao, who was staring wide-eyed, and suppressed his voice to the lowest,

"Chun Tao, let's go back."

Chun Tao nodded, the two of them were like kittens walking silently, lifting their skirts and sneaking away, it was already a little late, the curfew began, for unnecessary trouble, the two chose a shortcut in the alley to go home.

"Looks like you really don't have a long memory,"

Tang Xuanlin's voice suddenly sounded, and with the help of the dim lantern, Bu Tong noticed that this was not the alley where he met a group of thugs, how did he come here again, and looked back at the figure walking slowly behind him, although he couldn't see it really, but he also smirked there,

"Xuanlin, you're here. It's a bad day, and I can't see the road clearly, so we won't be walking here again. ”

Tang Xuanlin approached, he couldn't see his face clearly, the flickering candle flame could only see the silver thread embroidery on his chest, and his voice was warm,

"Tong'er, I'll escort you home."

I'm here to escort you home.

Bu Tong's heart gushed out a warm current, straight to the atrium, the previous life of himself, thought that he could do the next grand cause, revitalize the family, but in the end no one can protect it, watching them leave one by one, the frustration and regret, can not be expressed.

And now, there are people who stand beside them in the cold wind of hunting, saying that they want to "protect you".

Bu Tong suddenly realized that he was just a girl in her twenties, and now she was stuffed in Bu Tong's 16-year-old body, and she was not invincible.

It was nice to have someone to protect me.

Tang Xuanlin tentatively stretched out his hand, and finally pinched Butong's soft little hand under the cloak and held it in his warm palm.

"In the future, I will protect you in the palm of my hand like this, and no one can make you unhappy for a moment."

Bu Tong held Tang Xuanlin's big hand, looked at him and nodded, and suddenly realized that maybe Tang Xuanlin couldn't see his movements, so he said softly, "Okay." ”

"Xuanlin, by the Qifeng Bridge in three days, I'll wait for you."

"Okay."

……

On the second day, Bu Tong was catching up on sleep in a daze, when suddenly Jingzhao's voice sounded in his ears, "Miss, Miss, get up and dress up, there is a guest in the front hall." ”

Good familiar words.

Butong turned over in his sleep and asked,

"But the Fourth Highness is here again?"

Jing Zhao continued to pull Butong, "It's General Liehu who came to visit the mansion, saying that he wanted to meet the young master and young lady in the mansion, young lady, get up quickly." ”

Chun Tao called the washing water and twisted the handkerchief, and pressed it directly on Butong's face to wipe it, "Miss, just get up quickly, the young master has already left for the past, you are not too late." ”

Bu Tong was made like this, but he was completely awake, but he felt that his soul was not fully awake, he got up in a daze, and his voice floated,

"Brother is in the past, I'm a woman, it's not appropriate to see outsiders......"

Thinking about what Bu Tong had done these days, the corners of Chun Tao's mouth twitched, but she still pulled her up to change her clothes, "If Miss is really so noble, then it's really excellent." ”

Bu Tong knew that Chun Tao was laughing at himself, but Jing Zhao was there, and he didn't want to say anything, so he had to dress up and go to the front hall.

In the hall, Zhanhu and Bu Tingyun sat in the main seat, Mrs. Qi and Bu Yiyang sat at the bottom, and Bu Tong entered the door to greet him.

"Tong'er has seen General Lie, father, mother, brother, please forgive me for being late."

Bu Tingyun introduced, "General Lie, this is my little girl, she is a spoiled person who is stubborn and unbearable on weekdays, please don't blame the general." ”

After this night, Lie Zhanhu suddenly became high-spirited, his voice was like a bell, and he laughed loudly, "It's okay, the children of the Bu family are all so outstanding and unconventional." ”

Bu Tong committed himself to sit down under Bu Yiyang and asked in a low voice,

"Brother, why did General Lie come to the mansion?"

Bu Yiyang was also confused, "I don't know." ”

Lie Zhanhu's eyes swept over this side, and suddenly his words changed, "Nanguo Gong, Yi Yang has followed me all these years, and I am afraid that Mrs. Fushang and you are also to blame." ”

Speaking of this, Nan Guogong's face darkened half in an instant, and his tone was a little more indifferent, naturally there was no politeness in his words,

"In the end, there is only this one son in my house to inherit, and it is not as good as others, it is not wrong to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, but it is always necessary to divide people."

"Divide the people?" Lie Zhanhu squinted slightly, "Nanguo Gong was also the one who carried the sword to protect the army back then, why is he so timid now that he is so old!" ”

Carrying a sword to protect the car? Father still has such a bloody side?

Bu Tong and Bu Yiyang looked at each other, their faces shocked.

Bu Tingyun snorted, "The general is not going to say all the big words, he turned around and slapped his own face, if the general really said such a heroic spirit, then the commander of the cloud is dedicated to the army, why bother guarding the palace wall every day." ”

Lie Zhanhu slapped his thigh, and the whole person exuded a smug look, "Lord Guogong doesn't know, my nephew has decided to resign from the post of commander of the imperial guard and follow me to the western garrison, at that time, he and Yi Yang will help each other, and Lord Guogong and his wife will also feel at ease." ”

Nanguo Gong was stunned for a moment, "Isn't the palace city guard unmanned?" Your Majesty will not agree. ”

Lie Zhanhu calmed down and patiently explained, "Now that the Duke of the North is leading the troops to the king, Kyoto City must be peaceful, Ah Fang has been dedicated to the army, but he was helplessly involved by his father's old position, and now he is leaving, and he can also let the Jinyi guard of Lord Tang completely absorb the Imperial Forest Army, and take over the palace wall with a little integration. ”

It seems that yesterday's wine, Yun Fang really didn't drink it for nothing, presumably the two of them have already abandoned their previous suspicions and finished chatting about future plans.

Bu Yiyang breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Bu Tong approvingly.

The end of this visit was that Nanguo Gong relieved Bu Yiyang to continue to be the young general, and Bu Tong knew that it was time to make the next plan.

Thinking that Tang Xuanlin might send the news, Bu Tong didn't go out in the house, and happened to meet the white peony who came to visit in the afternoon.

Bai Peony seems to have gained some weight, his face is ruddy and shiny, and he is very good-looking, and when he came into the door, he saw Bu Tong lying on a bamboo chair in the courtyard fiddling with a small charcoal stove, and he laughed out loud, "It's cold outside in winter, I'm afraid it's going to snow these days, and the sun is pressing, why are you sitting in the yard blowing the wind?" ”

Butong beckoned her to sit,

"It's not cold for me to guard the charcoal stove here, and the ladies in the palace love fluorescent jewelry, so they all asked someone to send some for me to make, so I have to make more fluorescent agents."

Bai Peony stepped forward and sat down opposite her, stretching out her hand to bake the fire, "In the end, Tong'er is so idle now, I have come all the way, and the people on the street are about to fry, and they are all discussing one thing." ”

Bu Tong raised his eyes curiously, "But what's the change?" ”

Bai Shaoyao smiled, "Yun Fang, the commander of the imperial guard, asked His Majesty to resign today, and asked to be removed from the post of Grand Commander to go to the border, His Majesty actually agreed, and then ordered Tang Xuanlin, the governor of the East Factory, to take over the Imperial Forest Army and guard the inside and outside of the palace wall. ”

"By the way, that Lord Tang also asked for the establishment of the North and South Divisions, saying what kind of interrogation and detention place, the people are discussing it, saying that the situation is about to change, and it is rumored that this new overseer is ruthless and ruthless, and he is quite methodical, I am afraid that the future will be sad."

Bu Tong rarely heard Bai Peony say so many words, and squinted at her with some strange eyes, like a thief kitten,

"Sister Peony, it seems that you are also paying a lot of attention to the changes in the situation."

Bai Peony lowered her head and smiled, "Being in Kyoto, how can you ignore everything?" ”

That's right, when you are in the game, how can you get out and leave at will?

Just chatting and making jewelry together, the two spent an afternoon, but it was also relaxed......

On the second day, news came from outside, Sun Qingshan of the Ministry of War was dismissed, and the Zhenguo Gong was convicted of rebellion, exiled from his home, and the emperor's list was posted on various main roads. ”

Bu Tong unhurriedly packed up the imperial list and took it aside, and continued to turn back to tie his river lamp,

"What is a Sun Qingshan and Zhenguo Gong, this is just the beginning of ......"

The next yuan festival is coming as scheduled, during the day, His Majesty wants to lead the harem to worship the sky in the city, the martial law outside is very crowded, Bu Tong looked at the heavy clouds in the sky, and sighed,

"I'm afraid it's going to snow today."

Chun Tao brought a light-colored and slightly pink cloak, "Miss, I'm afraid you want to go out by yourself tonight, there are many people outside, and Chun Tao will be separated not far away, you put on this cloak, if it really snows, it won't freeze." ”

Bu Tong smiled, "Okay." ”

Brother Mo will also accompany his future sister-in-law to release the river lantern today? Bu Tong had nothing to do, and walked to Bu Yiyang's yard, but heard Bu Yiyang say angrily, "They are so careless about people's lives, aren't they afraid that Your Majesty will blame them!" ”

"What's going on?" Bu Tong walked into the door and saw Yun Fang and Bu Yiyang standing under the tree together, tall and jade, handsome and chic, these two people are also very eye-catching in modern times, "This is a good festival, so irritable." ”

Bu Yiyang "snorted", Yun Fang saw Bu Tong's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to salute quickly,

"The day before yesterday, thank you Ah Tong for your help."

"Wait," Bu Yiyang followed, "What happened the day before yesterday?" Have you seen that? ”

The party said that he didn't want to explain, and Bu Yiyang's eyes widened, "I don't even know when the relationship between the two of you is so good!" ”

Bu Tong changed the topic, "What are you talking about, my brother is so angry?" ”

Yun Fang smiled and said, "It's the Yin of Kyoto Prefecture, in the past two days, the victims have entered the city one after another, and they have sent people to intercept them five miles outside the city. ”

Bu Tong was surprised, "Only intercepted, not placed?" ”

Yun Fang nodded heavily.

No wonder Bu Yiyang is angry, such a careless act of disregard for human life is really a "parent official" in the capital.

Yun Fang comforted Bu Tong, "Ah Tong rest assured, just wait another day, Your Majesty will return to the dynasty early tomorrow morning, and I will play Your Majesty to inform the truth." ”

Bu Yiyang smacked his lips, "Tsk, Atong?" Shouting so intimately? ”

Bu Tong ignored him, nodded at Yun Fang, and looked up at the clouds that were getting darker and darker.

"I'm afraid, those refugees can't wait for tomorrow."

A heavy snowfall is coming......
