The Ying family is gone, the Lou family has also fallen, and she Ying Caiwei now only has Xiao Jifeng as a close relative.

But when she saw Xiao Jifeng, he was going to die.

Xiao Jifeng looked at Ji Yanning in front of him, unable to speak because of surprise.

Cai Wei ......

It's been a long time since the name has been mentioned again.

Ji Yanning's tears rained down, and his hands trembled: "I'm sorry, I hurt you." ”

"How could you...... How could it be Cai Wei. Xiao Jifeng looked at Ji Yanning in front of him, whether it was from appearance or age, this was simply impossible.

Even if Cai Wei is still alive, she should be about the same age as him now.

But the woman in front of her is clearly still in her cardamom years.

Ji Yanning said: "When I was six years old, I broke my uncle's favorite calligraphy and painting, and you were afraid that I would be punished, so you said that you broke it yourself, but you were beaten by your uncle, and I lay down for half a month; when I was eight years old, I fell into the lake because of my playfulness, and you drowned in order to save me, and after being rescued, you said that it had nothing to do with me; when I was twelve years old, there was a son who spoke lightly to me, and you directly fought with him, knocked out a tooth, and was laughed at for a long time......"

Recalling the past, Ji Yanning couldn't cry: "The last time I saw you...... Before you went to the frontier, you said you would win a good battle and bring me a lot of agate and gems. ”

It's a pity that he returned triumphantly, and the Ying family has been overturned.

"Cai Wei, is it really you?" Xiao Qifeng's eyes were full of incredulity and surprise, but he didn't have much energy, and he couldn't even speak.

There are some things that only the two of them know, and it is impossible for others to impersonate them even if they want to.

Ji Yanning knelt beside him, his light-colored clothes were already stained with a lot of blood on Xiao Jifeng's body.

She raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face, and choked up: "It's me, I'm back, but it's too late." ”

Why bring her back to life twenty years later?

Why did she only see her cousin today?

Seeing her crying sadly, Xiao Jifeng rarely curved the corners of his mouth: "As long as you live, it's fine...... It's a pity that my cousin can't be with you anymore. ”

He stretched out his hand and wanted to touch Ji Yanning's face, but his hand had no strength and hung in the air.

Ji Yanning held his hand and tilted his head to not let the tears fall again.

She never thought that the first time she saw her cousin after she came to life, it would be such a parting of life and death.

She only hated herself for being incompetent, she didn't follow her mother to learn medical skills well, and there was no way to save Xiao Jifeng.

"Shaobei. Xiao Jifeng opened his mouth and called.

Xiao Shaobei didn't expect Ji Yanning to be his father's cousin, and when he heard his father call him, he stepped forward: "My son is here." ”

Xiao Jifeng turned his head to look at him: "Originally, there was nothing to tell you, as long as you live well, but now my father wants to explain one thing to you." ”

Xiao Shaobei held back his tears and said, "Father just said." ”

Xiao Jifeng said with difficulty: "My father's biggest regret is that I couldn't protect my relatives twenty years ago, your grandmother Lou clan died unjustly, but I couldn't do anything. Now...... All I ask you is to protect your cousin, no matter what, to protect her......"

Xiao Shaobei nodded: "My son knows that as long as I am here, I will do my best to protect my cousin." ”

"Cousin......" Ji Yanning couldn't hold back any longer, and threw herself on him and cried.

"Don't cry, my cousin Caiwei is the first noble girl in Chang'an, and she can't cry easily. ”

Xiao Jifeng looked at Ji Yanning and stretched out his hand again to help her wipe away her tears, but as soon as his hand was raised, it fell down again, and there was no movement.

"Cousin!"

"Father!"

Ji Yanning hugged Xiao Jifeng's body and cried, his hands clenched into fists, and the green tendons on the back of his white hands were extremely clear.

Rong Ling, no matter what, she Ji Yanning won't let him go!

Autumn nights are exceptionally cool.

The wind passed through the valley, and there was a whining sound, as if a ghost was crying, which made people feel terrible.

"My lord, here are the corpses of officers and soldiers. Li Xiaoyun's subordinates said.

Li Xiaoyun stepped forward and saw clearly the bodies of these people under the light of the torches, all of whom were wearing the official uniforms of the Luzhou Mansion Yamen.

Many of these people were killed by arrows, and an arrow pierced the throat, no different from before.

His men also searched for a bow and arrow and quiver nearby, and he gently weighed it, it seemed to be a light bow, and it was not a military one.

He suddenly had doubts about his previous thoughts, and the person who might be able to shoot through his throat with an arrow was not Dingbei Marquis Xiao Jifeng.

But who else but him?

Even Xiao Shaobei, he didn't think that there was such archery skills.

Could it be that reinforcements arrived early......

Li Xiaoyun's eyes were colder, and it seemed that this explanation made more sense.

"Continue to search, if you find someone from the Dingbei Hou Mansion, you will be killed. He said in a deep voice.

They continued to move forward, and after searching for half an hour, they finally found a fire not far away.

"Miss!"

"Miss, where are you?"

Hearing their shouts, Li Xiaoyun frowned, it didn't seem to be the person they were looking for.

Li Xiaoyun stepped forward with people, and more than a dozen guards seemed to be looking for people from the Dingbei Hou Mansion.

"What are you guys doing here!" asked someone under Li Xiaoyun.

Ji Jiu saw that the people who came were all wearing black night clothes, not from the government, but his vigilance was higher, and he said, "Who are you?"

Li Xiaoyun's subordinates immediately drew their swords and put them on Ji Jiu's neck: "Just answer honestly if you ask you." ”

"Boss!"

Seeing them like this, the guards of the Ji family surrounded them one after another, confronting Li Xiaoyun's people.

Ji Jiu glanced at them and said, "My eldest lady went out hunting and accidentally fell to the bottom of the mountain, we are looking for her, I don't know what way is in your way?"

Li Xiaoyun's subordinates snorted coldly: "Who knows if you are looking for a young lady." ”

Ji Jiudao: "Whether you believe it or not has nothing to do with me, our well water does not interfere with river water, if you want to fight our idea, I'm afraid it's not so easy." ”

They are more than a dozen people, and Li Xiaoyun is also a dozen people, if they fight, they may not be able to retreat with their whole body.

Li Xiaoyun looked at Ji Jiu and the group, and it seemed that they were just ordinary house guards.

He glanced at his subordinates, and the man removed the sword from Ji Jiu's neck.

"Have you seen anyone else here?" asked Li Xiaoyun's men.

Ji Jiu took two steps back and looked at them vigilantly: "No." ”

The subordinate continued to ask: "Do you see those dead officers and soldiers?"

Ji Jiudao: "We entered the mountain at noon, and we didn't see any officers and soldiers. ”

Li Xiaoyun's eyes were fixed on Ji Jiu, and he said, "Why do you emphasize noon? How do you know that you can't see officers and soldiers at noon?"

Ji Jiu was secretly shocked, this person was really difficult to deal with.

He asked the people from the Dingbei Hou Mansion to go first to find the prince and the eldest lady, originally the guards of the Ji family thought that they could deal with these people, but they didn't expect that they still doubted themselves.

The air froze all of a sudden, and Ji Jiu's eyes looked at the group of people in front of him, silent.

Both sides clenched their swords and were ready to fight.

Li Xiaoyun's subordinates said sharply: "What the hell are you coming from!"

"I don't know where I came from, but I have to question others. Ji Jiu's eyes were calm, and as he spoke, he directly drew his sword and pointed it at them.

The people under Li Xiaoyun also drew their swords.

"Stop!" a female voice rang out behind them.

Ji Jiu turned his head and was pleasantly surprised to see a familiar voice.

"Miss!"

The guards of the Ji family surrounded each other, and Ji Jiu supported Ji Yanning.

Seeing that her body was covered with blood, Ji Jiu asked with some concern, "Miss, are you injured?"

Ji Yanning's gaze was as silent as death, she shook her head indifferently, and then raised her gaze to look at Li Xiaoyun and his party.

Ji Jiu nervously held Ji Yanning's arm and signaled her not to be impulsive.

He had already sent someone to find Lord Cen, and in a few more hours, Lord Cen should bring people here, there was no need to clash with these people at this time, these people seemed to be not low in martial arts.

Ji Yanning lowered his head, hid his scarlet eyes, and his body trembled a little.

"The mountains are dangerous, why is the girl's house running around?" Li Xiaoyun said, his tone full of temptation.

Ji Yanning still lowered his head and did not speak.

Ji Jiu said impatiently: "Our eldest lady can do whatever she wants, and you can talk nonsense as an outsider?"

Li Xiaoyun looked at this "eldest lady" who suddenly appeared, and saw that she kept her head down and didn't speak, and her body trembled slightly, thinking that she was so frightened, so she didn't take it to heart.

He raised his hand and motioned for his subordinates to search forward.

Ji Yanning raised his eyes and looked at the back of this group of people with resentment, and the silver needles in his sleeves fell on his fingertips.

Li Xiaoyun suddenly turned his head without warning at this time, and just met Ji Yanning's fierce eyes, the hatred in his eyes was intense, and it was particularly dazzling in the firelight in the dark night.

This girl, who looks like she is only in her teens, seems to have an extremely strong hatred for him.

Ji Jiu turned around and blocked Ji Yanning, and said to the Ji family's guards, "Let's go back." ”

"Stop. Li Xiaoyun spoke.

The guards of the Ji family surrounded Ji Yanning in the middle, looking at the people opposite vigilantly.

Ji Yanning looked up at Li Xiaoyun: "What, don't let people go?"

Her voice was hoarse and indifferent.

Li Xiaoyun always felt that the woman in front of him was very strange, but he couldn't say what was strange, but according to his intuition, this woman was not simple.

"You guys came out hunting, what about the bow and arrow?" Li Xiaoyun narrowed his eyes slightly.

Ji Yanning said coldly: "Do you think I can still take care of bows and arrows with the appearance I have now?"

Li Xiaoyun was about to say something, but suddenly Ji Jiu shouted: "It seems that someone is coming over again!"

Li Xiaoyun has not seen the people of Dingbei Hou Mansion yet, although the team of people in front of him is very strange, but it seems that he can't find out the reason for being entangled with them, Cen Qingshan has already brought people to Luzhou before he came, but I am afraid that if it is slower, Zhu Jinghe may not be able to hold it.

He didn't have time to deal with the group of people in front of him.

"Let's go!"

He led the men and continued to walk towards the hill in front of him.
