What is happiness? The answer is actually quite simple. For the three mothers, happiness is to sit on the wooden bed and listen to Fang Yu tell this bizarre historical story.

No, in the rainy afternoon, after lunch--in fact, it's just a few birds in the trees, the two little babies lie on the wooden bed, holding their cheeks, and Yu Yan lies on her husband's lap, quietly listening to his endless talk.

"Good. Students, friends, guests, ladies and gentlemen, the story I want to tell today is why a person should cover the white cloth when he dies. Six eyes looked at him in unison, only to see him smile triumphantly and clear his throat, "But before I tell this story, give me a little reward." ”

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly leaned down and pecked Yu Yan's soft lips.

Yu Yan smiled. In fact, she had expected her husband to do this, and she could have dodged - but why should she dodge? He was her own husband!

Therefore, when his lips touched his lips, Yu Yan suddenly hugged his neck and kissed him fiercely.

Yu Yan squeezed hard, his lips were deformed, and both of his nostrils were blocked, almost breathless. Just as he jumped up, walked in front of his father and mother, and gave the two adults a slap with a flick of his hand.

"Men and women are not allowed to fight!"

Fang Yu almost burst out laughing, it seemed that he would have to restrain himself in front of the children.

Yu Yan looked at him angrily, but her eyes were full of smiles: "Do you want a reward?"

"No, no. He rubbed his lips and smiled wryly.

"Then you still don't say it?"

Fang Yu coughed dryly and said, "This matter has to start with Wu Zixu." ”

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Wu Zixu persuaded King Wu to kill Gou Jian, but King Wu was unwilling at that time, and later King Wu listened to the villain's slander, and after a long time, he was estranged from Wu Zixu, and finally gave Wu Zixu a sword to let him commit suicide in public.

When Wu Zixu was dying, he confessed to his subordinates to gouge out his eyes and hang them on the city wall, because he wanted to see with his own eyes how the state of Wu perished.

Sure enough, as he expected, the state of Wu was really destroyed by Gou Jian, and before he died, King Wu regretted that he did not listen to Wu Zixu's advice, so he ordered the ministers around him to cover his face with a white cloth after he died, because he himself did not have the face to see Wu Zixu underground.

Zhengzheng tilted his little head and asked, "Father, what kind of person is Wu Zixu?"

Fang Yu touched his little head and said with a smile that Wu Zixu had been shackled with hatred since his father and brother were killed. With hatred, he came to the country of Wu, and used his wisdom to make a small country like the country of Wu gradually begin to become stronger. In the end, he led the elite division he built to attack the capital of Chu, whipped the corpse of King Chuping, and avenged the revenge of his father and brother.

Suddenly, Zhengzheng jumped off the wooden bed and said solemnly: "Father, I also want to take revenge!"

Yu Yan smiled and asked, "Xiao Zhengzheng, who bullied you?" tell your mother. Mother avenges you. ”

"No, the child will take revenge on himself. ”

Looking at his serious appearance, Yu Yan felt funny: "What revenge?"

"I'm going to get revenge for hiding in the dung bucket!"

Fang Yu couldn't help but laugh. Yu Yan smiled: "Those who can bend and stretch for the sake of their careers and endure are the strongest people." Do you want to be the strongest person you can be?"

Fang Yu followed his wife's words and continued: "Forbearance does not mean being afraid. Hiding does not mean cowardice. Someday, we'll definitely fight back. ”

At this moment, I suddenly heard a few neighing horses outside. In the mist of smoke and rain, a woman staggered on horseback and galloped, and behind him, four or five horses were in hot pursuit, and the men on the horses shouted and held large knives, with the intention of killing the fleeing people as quickly as possible.

The woman staggered and fell off the horse, and the people behind her immediately slapped the horse and chased after her, without saying a word, her hand rose and fell!

Four or five big men chasing a weak woman must not be a good person. Thinking so, Yu Yan then picked up a few stones and raised her hand-

"Whoosh" a few times, four or five big men screamed, covered their wrists, and the big knife fell to the ground with a "bang".

"Who are you to dare to stop it?" the leader shouted angrily.

Yu Yan didn't answer and asked: "Who are you who dare to commit murder in broad daylight?"

Seeing that the person who came turned out to be a woman, the leader was taken aback. In this wilderness, there are people, and besides, it is a woman. He was a little weak-hearted, and he looked around to make sure that there was no one else around but her, and then he was relieved.

Yu Yan gently helped the woman up, brushed away the hair on her forehead, wiped the dirt off her face, and revealed a pretty face.

"Woman, save my life. The woman pleaded weakly.

"Don't panic, just sit down and talk slowly. ”

"If you dare to meddle with your grandfather's business, can't you be tired of it?"

"If you don't want to die, get out of the way as soon as possible!"

Seeing Yu Yan's handsome appearance and soft figure, the leading man sneered: "In the wilderness, there are such beauties! ”

"Is the Lord Wang in your mouth Wang Jixun?"

"A wild girl is also worthy of mentioning the name of our adult! Come on, catch me back!"

Several of his subordinates responded, and pounced on Yu Yan with their teeth and claws. Yu Yan looked at them coldly, her body flashed, a sword, her body turned, a sword, her footsteps moved, she swords, and in an instant, three of the four big men fell.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the other turned around and fled, but was chased by Yu Yan with an arrow step, and a sword pierced his back.

The leader was taken aback, hurriedly turned the horse's head, and a stone flew out of Yu Yan's hand like a bullet out of the chamber, entered through the back of his neck, pierced his mouth, stared at his eyes, "cooed" twice, and fell off the horse.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" the woman kept kneeling on the ground and bowing.

"The girl doesn't have to be polite, please come into the house and say something else. ”

When the woman entered the wooden house, she was stunned when she saw a man and a child. Yu Yan smiled and introduced them one by one, which dispelled her concerns.

Looking at the furnishings of these two beds, although they are a little simple and covered with wolf skin cushions, they are also warm and comfortable. A bonfire at the door was blazing.

It was when she saw this fire that she ran desperately this way, but she didn't expect that she really ran right.

"The benefactor has lived here for some time, hasn't he?"

"It's been more than four months. ”

"May I ask the girl's name?"

"Little woman Zhang Lan. Everyone likes to call me Xiaolan. ”

Fang Yu asked, "Miss Xiaolan, who is the emperor now?"

"Zhao Guangyi. ”

Fang Yu pinched his fingers, if he didn't make a mistake, this year should be February 977. Historically, Wang Jixun was beheaded in this month.

Yu Yan asked, "Xiaolan, what happened just now, why did they hunt you down?"

"My grandfather and I depend on each other in Luoyang, and on weekdays, I don't dare to go out half a step because of Wang Jixun's lawlessness. I don't want to send someone from the palace to settle accounts with my grandfather this morning. didn't want to see me at home, so he went back to report to Wang Jixun. The wicked man is trying to rob me. Grandpa didn't let me, and I was beaten all over my body by them, and I took advantage of the chaos to run out. ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but ask, "Did your grandfather form a bond with them?"

"The words of the officials have never been formed. ”

"Then why did they go to your grandfather?"

"Just because grandpa said a word, he offended Wang Jixun. But this is not directed at him......"

"What did you say that angered Wang Jixun?"

"Grandpa said that the new emperor is coming, and the good days of the people are coming. When Wang Jixun heard this, he thought that he was cursing him, so he beat his grandfather. Poor grandpa was beaten and bruised, and now his life and death are unknown......"

At this, she couldn't stop crying.

"It's too much of a deception!" Fang Yu's chest was full of anger, like a broken lead that was about to explode*.

"Now is it, when will it be?" Anger burned in her heart, her throat, her whole body.

"Father, mother, let the child come with you!" Xiao Zhengzheng's eyes stared, as if they were about to protrude from their sockets.

"Father, mother, and children are going too! Avenge Grandpa Xiaolan!" Yuan Yuan was so angry that his little fists were clenched tightly.

Yu Yan squatted down and said softly: "Children, the front is very dangerous, you are safer here." We'll be right back, shall we?"

"No, the child is going too!" Yuan Yuan shouted, not reluctantly, "The child has to go! I want to avenge Grandpa Xiaolan!"

Zhengzheng shook off Yu Yan's hand and asked loudly: "Father, the child wants to be like you, to be a man with a sense of justice and integrity, instead of hiding at home all the time and not daring to go out!"

These words came out of Fang Zheng's mouth, which really surprised the husband and wife. All the while, they held them in the palm of their hands and held them in their mouths. As everyone knows, the actions of the two have already been deeply engraved in the depths of the two young hearts. The word justice has already taken root and sprouted.

Yu Yan wanted to say something, but was pulled by Fang Yu.

Yu Yan said the words that all parents were concerned about: "Do you really want to let them go, what if there is danger?"

"How can the flowers in the greenhouse withstand the wind and rain?"

"It's too dangerous, it's better for them to stay here. Yu Yan thought to herself, she didn't know what to do, and it would be too dangerous to take two more children.

"Don't worry, lady, I have my own measure. ”

"Then you have to keep them safe. Yu Yan told uneasily.

"Children are long, heroes are short of breath!" Fang Yu laughed and waved his hand, "If you want to go together, you can get on the horse!"

"Beware, benefactor! Wang Jixun may have gotten some rumors, and is now killing people everywhere in the city, setting fires, and committing evil deeds. ”

"Such a wicked person deserves to be punished!"

Zhengzheng sat on the same horse with his mother, and Yuanyuan sat on the same horse with his father, and marched towards Luoyang City in the mist and rain.

The drizzle was drizzling down non-stop, layers of mist were in the air, the woods were also shrouded in smoke and rain, and Luoyang loomed in the distance.
