When Qin Huaiyu and the others found Li Zhi, they saw a person with red eyes and a lost soul.

Li Zhi absentmindedly followed Qin Huaiyu back to the station, and along the way, his mind was full of the familiar Qianying who bent down, gently picked up the little girl, and kissed her and giggled. Then a handsome man walked out from the side, and the two of them went down the mountain with their children.

Her Jiaoyan will no longer bloom for him, she already belongs to another man. She was his wife, her mother. Thinking of this, Li Zhi's heart felt like it was being caught.

Qin Huaiyu didn't know what was going on, but he knew that something must have happened. Because his military tent was too far away from Li Zhi's camp, Qin Huaiyu never had the opportunity to talk to Li Zhi alone during the hunt.

Li Shimin also noticed that Li Zhi was different, but Li Zhi has always done what he should do, and it seems that it is normal that people can't find fault with it.

Everyone thinks that Li Zhi has changed, but like Li Shimin, they still think that Li Zhi is normal.

On this day, Xiao Yan deliberately went out of the palace to see her because Xiao Ying, the wife of the British princess, was pregnant again, and at this time, Xiao Ying was also six months pregnant. The two sisters met, and Xiao Ying taught Xiao Yan a lot of precautions for pregnant women.

Recently, Xiao Yan has been very worried, Li Zhi is still a human during the day, and he is always drunk alone when he returns to the palace at night.

In the evening, Xiao Ying told Li Zhen what he said, and Li Zhen listened thoughtfully. Because Qin Huaiyu had said about Li Zhi's change after the hunt, no one knew the reason at that time, so there was no way to persuade him.

His Majesty the Emperor wanted to personally conquer Goryeo, Qin Huaiyu and others had already marched north with the vanguard army, and Li Zhen was one of the officials who assisted the prince in staying behind. had the opportunity to contact Li Zhi alone, and when he heard this, Li Zhen's heart moved, and he had a plan to find out.

The next day, after dealing with the things at hand, seeing that it was still early, Li Zhen rarely did not go home immediately to accompany his daughter-in-law. He had been wandering around the yard, and the others thought he was thinking about things, so no one bothered him when people came and went.

After a long time, Li Zhi also walked out of the duty room, Li Zhen hurriedly greeted him, and said with a smile: "Your Highness hasn't seen you for a long time, do you have time for us to have a drink?" ”

Li Zhi's harem is now only Concubine Xiao, and she and Li Zhen's wife Xiao Ying are the best cousins, so Li Zhi is still very close to Li Zhen. Due to Wen's reasons, Li Zhen was very indifferent to him some time ago, but now that he heard that Li Zhen was invited, Li Zhi readily agreed.

The two renovated a table of wine and food in the side hall, and talked about the military and the people while drinking. Li Zhen suddenly said about the battle ahead, Qin Huaiyu led 10,000 elite soldiers to make rapid progress, and he had already left Lu Longsai. Wen Zhonglian's headquarters is also the vanguard of the whole army, although it is the first time to lead the troops into battle, the precision and care is no less than that of the veterans of the army, and it is very effective in opening up a channel for the guidance of the whole army.

Wen Zhonglian is Jiu'er's brother and has the best friendship with Jiu'er, and Li Zhen's mention of him made Li Zhi immediately think of Jiu'er. He immediately thought of the day when the delicate girl opened her arms and called her "mother", when Li Zhi froze on his mount and did not fall off his horse until the three of them were gone.

I don't know how Jiu'er got out of danger, but she survived after all. Li Zhi didn't dare to look for her, he didn't know what would happen after finding her. Will her father be able to keep her alive? Can I still make her the crown princess?

The moment he saw that she had a husband and a child, Li Zhi felt betrayed, and at that time he wanted to rush forward and kill them all. However, reason soon overcame impulse, and now she is not the same person she used to be, they are two people. Princess Jin has died, and now she is a woman with a husband and children.

I can't bother her anymore, so that at least she can live in peace. But why does it hurt in his heart just thinking of her?

Li Zhi drank cup by cup until Li Zhen held down his hand to raise the glass again. Just now, when Wen Zhonglian Li Zhi's expression changed drastically, Li Zhen was a little surprised.

Li Zhi looked at Li Zhen with drunken eyes, and saw him and said solemnly: "Your Highness, you can't drink anymore, your appearance is definitely not what Jiu'er is happy to see." ”

Hearing Li Zhen mention Jiu'er, Li Zhi hurriedly said, "She's dead, dead." Jingyang, don't mention her again, just let her live in peace. ”

Hearing this, Li Zhen was shocked, he thought that Li Zhi had seen something related to Jiu'er, but he didn't expect Jiu'er to be alive. If you think about it, you can understand Li Zhi's hardships, and how to deal with it is really not easy to do.

persuaded Li Zhi, and saw that he was indeed a little drunk, and he didn't seem to realize his gaffe. Li Zhen decided to pretend that he didn't know, he wanted to go back and discuss it with his father first.

On the mountain that day, Li Zhi met Zhang Wenyi.

The reason why she didn't die was because when she was tortured inhumanly by Li Shimin, she had long had the idea of dying with him. It's just that Li Shimin threatened her family, so she always forbears.

After the first day, she had hidden the multi-purpose blade under the pillow mat in case of emergency, but she did not expect that the illness would come suddenly and ferociously. When she regained consciousness again and saw the old nun with the Dharma name Huifa and the four Wuni, she had a premonition that something might happen, so she secretly took out the blade and held it in her hand while no one was paying attention.

When those Wuni tied her up, they didn't notice the fists she had been clenching, and after being thrown into the deep pool, Zhang Wenyi held her breath and cut the rope that tied her hands and feet, and then cut the rope that sealed the mouth of the pig cage. Escaping from the pig cage, he crept up to the feet of the nuns, and waited until they were far away before crawling out of the deep pool.

The pool of water was cold, Zhang Wenyi was almost frozen to death, after climbing out of the deep pool, she didn't dare to stay, and walked in the opposite direction for seven or eight days before entering the mountain again, and when she entered the deep mountain, Zhang Wenyi could no longer support it and fainted. She had had a high fever for three days before entering the mountain, and if it hadn't been for an elderly couple who inadvertently saved her, she might have died.

A year later, the old couple both passed away, and Zhang Wenyi and their grandson worked together to bury them. In addition to their grandson, the old couple also had a granddaughter who was less than three years old, their son fell off a cliff and died while collecting medicine, and the daughter-in-law also died because of the difficult birth of her daughter. The girl called Zhang Wenyi "Niang" when she saw her for the first time, and everyone was surprised and felt that this was fate in the dark.

This day was the seventh day of the two old men, Zhang Wenyi was walking back after the incense, and suddenly heard the familiar voice behind her calling her. At this moment, Zhang Wenyi didn't know what kind of mood it was, whether it was resentment or something else. It was only in an instant that she made the decision to ignore his shouts.

The boy's name was Chen Ming, and he faintly heard Li Zhi's shouting, and also saw Li Zhi riding a horse. He and Zhang Wenyi walked down the mountain, and found that Li Zhi did not follow, so Chen Ming was relieved.

He asked, "Is that man on the mountain an acquaintance?" ”

Zhang Wenyi said calmly: "He saw the wrong person. ”

Chen Ming said "oh" and stopped talking, he didn't believe Zhang Wenyi's words, from the feeling that the person knew her. And Zhang Wenyi's current pseudonym is "Zhang Jiuniang", and that person seems to be shouting "Jiu'er". Is it really a coincidence?

Anyway, Chen Ming didn't want them to recognize each other.

Chen Ming is fifteen years old this year, one year older than Zhang Wenyi. From the first time they met, he fell in love with this rare beauty. The reason why he likes her is not only her beauty, but that Zhang Wenyi has a factor that makes him close, so that he unconsciously approaches her, loves him, and cares for her.

If it weren't for his sister calling her "mother" as soon as they met, he would have confessed to her a long time ago. His sister's behavior embarrassed Chen Ming for a long time, and he rarely looked at Zhang Wenyi so far. Seeing Li Zhi today, an inexplicable nervousness rose in Chen Ming's heart.

Li Zhen returned to the house and went to his father's study first, and Li Ji stayed in front of the map in the study for the past few days to think about how to fight.

Li Zhen was a little surprised by Li Zhen's arrival, Li Zhen is a sensible child, he has a long habit of thinking before the war, and he will never come back to disturb him if there is no major event.

Is Princess Jin still alive? Li Ji couldn't believe his ears when he heard Li Zhen's words. He immediately asked Li Zhen to go and find it, and he must implement the current situation of Princess Jin's life and death.

The next day, before dawn, Li Zhen set off with more than 20 generals, and according to the description of everyone during the last hunting, he first found the mountain stream, and then went down the mountain to find two new tombs on the opposite side of the mountain stream. It was past noon, and after they had eaten dry food, they drank their horses and fed them by a brook, and then searched down the hill.

Although it is a trail, it is not easy to find people in the mountains. This era is different from the modern population, and even in the mountains, most of them are villages.

During this period, the population was far less than that of modern times, and most of the people who lived in the mountains were not known for their status, except for hunters and those who made a living by collecting medicines. There are also those who flee from the famine, find a good piece of land in the mountains, and cultivate themselves in it. Most of these people are scattered all over the place, and there are some who are one or two miles away from each other, and some are seven or eight miles or even more than ten miles apart.

It wasn't until the smoke rose in the evening that Li Zhen found two thatched huts in the mountains under the guidance of the smoke.

A two- or three-year-old girl was playing in a small courtyard made of tree branches, and Li Zhen felt that she should have found the right place. Gather up the generals scattered everywhere and walk towards the two huts.

When the little girl saw so many people walking towards her yard, she called out in horror to "Mother" and turned around and ran towards a thatched hut. Hearing the girl's cry, Zhang Wenyi walked out of the stove, and she saw Li Zhen walking to the door of the small courtyard at first sight.

Hearing the little girl's cry and Zhang Wenyi, who came out later, Li Zhen suddenly understood Li Zhi's pain. She has a new family and children, and there is no way to go back to the way she used to be.

Li Zhen touched his body, he was used to being the eldest young master, and he didn't have the habit of carrying money. So he looked back at the generals and asked, "Do you have any money on you?" Take them all out, go back and give them back double. ”

These generals are all descendants of Li Ji's own soldiers in the past, and the young master does not say let them take the money, even if they take their lives, these people will not frown. It's just that these people don't have much money on them, and they all get together a little more.

Li Zhen put the money in a person's money bag, put it on the ground in front of the courtyard gate, and said, "I'm sorry to disturb me." ”

After speaking, he took the generals and left reflexively. Zhang Wenyi knew that Li Zhen had always been very close to her, but she didn't know the reason. Seeing his appearance, Zhang Wenyi also knew that he had misunderstood himself, but it was okay to do so.
