Chapter 17: Daughter's Grievance

Two bowls of hot noodle soup were placed on the table, and a mouthful of hot soup was put down, dispelling the cold, the muscles and veins around her body were activated, and her mood was much better.

The two faced each other and ate half a bowl of noodles, and Lu Changfeng said: "Tomorrow I will go to a few towns outside the city to inspect, the scenery outside the city is also very good, do you want to go and see together?" ”

Manyue just slipped a mouthful of noodles, raised her head, her mouth was full and she couldn't speak, and chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed: "I'm going." After eating, she didn't go back to the post house, but went back to the Sword Pavilion first, and Liu Anan was still there.

Liu Anan opened a pair of walnut eyes and called her: "Barbarian girl, you are back." ”

"Why are you crying again?"

She frowned, pinched the handkerchief in her hand, and looked aggrieved: "I don't want to, I just can't help it." ”

Manyue's curiosity was aroused, and she didn't listen to it earlier, but now she wants to know what she and Lu Changfeng said, "That, what did you say to Lu Changfeng in the afternoon?" Say okay first, if you feel sad, don't say it, don't cry. ”

Liu Anan shook his head and said no.

She was a young lady of the official family before her death, and her rich and noble parents loved her, because she was the only daughter, and she was cared for everywhere, so she developed a timid and crying soft character. After she married Lin Zeyuan, the deputy general under General Lu, her life was also harmonious and harmonious, without much turmoil.

It wasn't until Lin Zeyuan learned the bad news of the Lu family's annihilation, that he accidentally bumped into someone delivering news to Beirong's spies, and when he dug deeper, he found out the identity of the traitor who betrayed General Lu. Lin Zeyuan first went to find Lu Changfeng, but Lu Changfeng was far away on the frontier at the time, and he could only slowly collect evidence and wait for Lu Changfeng to return to Shengjing.

That day, they were having dinner, and the kitchen man served a bowl of soup, and she didn't pay much attention. Unexpectedly, Lin Zeyuan began to vomit blood after drinking the bowl of soup, she had never seen this scene, she only knew to call someone to ask for a doctor...... Now that I think about it, I only remember the blood on my hands, and Lin Zeyuan's hoarse words that night: "An An, I can't stand you, I can't protect you......"

He coughed a few times, and blood gushed out from his throat again: "Tell General Lu that Zhao Yuan, it's Zhao Yuan-"

When the doctor came, he was already out of breath, and she was so frightened that she grabbed his hand and called out to her husband, and it took a long time to cry.

On the second day, before she had time to buy a coffin, the officers and soldiers arrested her, and the cook in her house went to report to the officials, saying that she had fornicated with a Taoist priest and poisoned her husband. She never knew any Taoist priests, and the government knew it as soon as they checked, but they didn't even check it, and hastily sentenced her to be hanged and hanged.

"Poor my father, I should be at an age when I should enjoy my life, but I have suffered this disaster in vain, and I don't know what is happening now?" As she spoke, two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks.

That's right, she is the only daughter in the family, and she is also the palm treasure of her father's love. As a result, he was executed on the charge of fornication, and his body was thrown into a mass grave to be eaten by wild beasts, and he didn't even leave a whole corpse, and the most painful thing was the old man at home.

It's really a drama, the two of them disappeared overnight. Manyue was stupid, and she didn't know how to comfort people, so she had to pat her on the shoulder like a torturer: "You, don't cry, not only Lu Changfeng will help you, but I will also help you." ”

Manyue thought that if something happened to her one day, what she was most worried about was the master.

Snow fell outside the door again, clouds and mist were in the sky, and there was no moonlight on earth. Zixiu came out of the post house with an umbrella, holding a lamp in one hand, and his cloak hung loosely on him, looking a little funny.

He entered the Sword Pavilion and saw Manyue, with a relaxed smile on his face: "I guess you are here, sister, it's snowing, it's time to go back." ”

On the way back to the post house, Manyue wore Zixiu's cloak and had a whim: "Brother, if you become a ghost one day, what do you miss the most?" "Is it like Liu An'an, who misses his parents the most at home, and wants to take revenge the most, or something else?

"Naturally, it's you."

"Why?"

He smiled, his sister still didn't grow up, "Because you are my only relative, disobedient and love to cause trouble, which man dares to marry you." But it's okay, even if you become an old girl, no one will dare to bully you with your brother. When you have a sister-in-law, we will go back to Mengzhao, and we will go fishing on the glacier in the winter, and go kite flying on windy days......"

He was depicting the future, but Manyue suddenly missed the taste of grilled fish, "Fishing, I kind of want to eat grilled fish." ”

"Okay, when it's free in a few days, let's go to the moat and fish for a few ......"

Manyue Ji Lu Changfeng asked her to go outside the city to play, and got up early in the morning, Zixiu yawned and got her a cloak, "Go early and return early, don't stay outside all day long, and help count the money when someone sells it." ”

Lu Changfeng pulled two horses and waited for her at the door of the post house, and when he saw her come out, he pulled the reins: "I saw that you could ride a horse, so I found one for you, this horse has a gentle temperament and fast footsteps, you can ride it and try it." ”

The horse was red, with white hooves, and chewing hay in its mouth, and was tethered to the doorpost, and looked very well-behaved. Manyue walked over and touched its mane, but it didn't resist much, only let out of its nostrils and hummed a few times.

It's not like she's never seen a horse, but she's received so many things, and it's the first time someone has given her a living thing. She also had a fox before, but she didn't care much, three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, and it didn't take long for the fox to be taken away by her master.

Manyue stepped on the horse's pedal and got on the horse first, and after sitting firmly on the horse's back, he pulled the reins and drove the horse a few steps, looking at him condescendingly: "Lu Changfeng, let's go." ”

Lu Changfeng lost his mind for a moment, as if he had only seen the real her today, his spirit was flying, and people couldn't take their eyes off it, unlike what he saw in the past, just a ball of childishness.

The forest was bare because of the winter, and the heavy snow for many days crushed the branches, and the new snow buried the dead branches that had fallen to the ground, and the horse's hooves crushed through it with the clatter of cracks.

"Lu Changfeng, where are we going?" After walking for a long time, there was a white expanse everywhere, and occasionally passing by a few forests, Manyue couldn't help but ask.

Lu Changfeng looked around, estimated the distance, and said: "Liu An'an's grandfather turned out to be a merchant in a village outside the city, and later her father moved to live in the city after she joined the office, and after her accident, her parents moved back. She said yesterday that she had mobility problems and asked me to help see her parents. ”

"It just so happened that there was a waterfall near the village, and the scenery was very spectacular, so I thought I would take you there. However, you have to go to the barracks first. He continued.

Waterfall? It's true that she hasn't seen it in Mengzhao, but she has seen it in Nanxu, "I've seen it once, but that was a long time ago." ”

"Oh?" He became interested, "Is there a waterfall in Mengzhao?" "The territory of Xiao is vast, and the products and scenery are different in various places, there are many grasslands in Mengzhao, and there are many mountains and rivers in Shengjing, and it is normal that there are some things.

Manyue blinked and took a breath: "This...... I didn't see it at Mengzhao, but at my master's. "If he said that he was in Nanxu, he didn't know how to explain it, and he always had to try his best to play dumb riddles, which was really a headache.

As he spoke, a different color finally appeared in front of him, a city stood in the snow, the black iron gate was several people high, and two teams of soldiers in heavy armor stood on both sides.

Lu Changfeng rode to the city gate, and someone stepped forward to salute him, "Meet General Lu." ”

He dismounted, handed the reins to the man, and when the moon dismounted, someone else came to lead the horse for her. The purpose of his trip was not only to inspect the military camp, but also to investigate Zhao Yuan, as for taking Manyue out to play, the two did not conflict.

"The little county lord will rest for a while, and then we will set off later." After he finished speaking to Manyue, he instructed the guards to lead her around. Not long after Manyue came to Shengjing, she couldn't find anyone else, knowing that he was busy with affairs, and she didn't say much.

Manyue followed the guards to the shooting range, and several people gathered around a half-sized man, who was holding a bow and arrow, aiming at the bull's-eye. She clasped her hands and smiled, and the little fart was quite stance.

As soon as the child's hand pulling the bow was released, the sound of the feather arrow breaking through the air was heard, and the snap hit the red heart. Manyue originally wanted to go up and show her hand, but she didn't think that this kid was not tall enough to reach her shoulders, and the level of archery was much higher than her, but fortunately she didn't have time to go up and be embarrassed.

He hooked the corners of his mouth, dropped his bow on the stake, and turned to leave. Manyue stood behind him, and the moment she saw his face, she barely glared out of her eyes, "Chang, Changli Senior Brother!" ”
