Chapter 121: Just Homesick
Walking out of the Zichen Palace, the concubines who were originally guarding outside the hall had dispersed, and under the purple-gray sky, the entrance of the hall was extremely deserted.
In Kyoto, the weather has begun to turn cooler in October, especially before dawn, and the cool air is humid with fog, and it is very cold on the skin.
Taking the cloak handed over by the chamberlain, the young man took the lead.
Stepping on the gray light, the footsteps are calm and leisurely, not hurried, and the momentum has begun to show grandeur.
After leaving the Zichen Hall for a long distance, someone caught up a few steps ahead and stuck behind the young man, "Lord Wang, the survey has been completed, and there is no ambush on the road, but do you want to go back to the house directly?" ”
The boy nodded, "Hmm." ”
Suddenly, the corner of his eye felt a fiery red.
The young man's face changed suddenly, and he looked sharply in that direction.
The tongue of flames in the sky looked extremely abrupt and hideous under the gray-purple sky.
It was as if it had opened its bloody mouth, waiting to swallow up those who approached it at any moment and burn them to ashes.
Clenching his fists, his nails digging into his flesh, the boy trembled, staring at the firelight, unable to move.
Wei Zi was the closest person to him, and when he saw the young man in such a state, he hurriedly covered his eyes with his hands, "Notify someone to put out the fire!" Also thoroughly investigate, what the hell is going on! ”
After finishing speaking, he hugged the stiff boy and left quickly.
At the same time, I was extremely annoyed.
The sudden fire at this hour, at this place, could never be a coincidence.
As hidden guards, guarding the safety of the prince, they avoided many ambushes, and even protected the road back to the palace of the prince impermeable.
I didn't expect there to be an omission in this!
The prince is afraid of the fire, and only the closest people around him know this, how did the news leak out?
“…… Check, there is a leak of news from Xinghua Village, if there is," the young man closed his eyes tightly, his face was as white as gold paper, and his voice was almost squeezed out of his throat, "Silence!" ”
"Yes!"
The fire in the palace was quickly extinguished, but the fire was actually not big and caused no damage.
After a thorough investigation, there are no doubtful flaws. It was a little eunuch who was too careless when he got up at night and knocked over the oil lamp. When I came back from the hut, the fire was already burning.
The little eunuch was punished for this, and the matter seemed to be over, but the undercurrent hidden under the surface began to become more intense.
King Nanling had a high fever after being frightened in the palace, and it took two full days to wake up.
The emperor was furious about this, and the entire government and the opposition were terrified.
For fear that the prince would be frightened and have a fever, this matter would burn to his head, and everyone acted with their tails clamped in the past few days.
It's not like this hasn't happened before.
As soon as King Nanling returned to Beijing, the emperor made a big move, hundreds of people were tortured, officials were dismissed, and even the top families in Beijing were implicated and fell from the clouds to the quagmire.
The king of Nanling is the emperor's reverse scale.
This point, from the moment the prince returned to Beijing, everyone knew about the ministers and nobles.
"What did you find out?" In the Nanling Palace, the young man sat at the head of the bed, his face still pale.
"Back to the prince, the news over there has not leaked, but according to the news from Xuzhou, someone is secretly probing around the Xuzhou territory, and it seems that they want to find out what happened to the master."
The young man's frowning brow loosened slightly, as long as the other side was safe and sound, he could calm down and plan.
"Since they want to know so much, send the news to them."
"What do you mean?"
"As long as someone believes in a story that is made up, it is true."
Wei Zi was stunned, "Let's do it!" ”
The prince plans to enclose the land.
Circle all the enemies in the battlefield he drawn.
Winning or losing in life and death is all clear on this battlefield.
He did not allow the flames of war to spread to Xinghua Village.
The boy looked up at the window.
The capital is cloudy, and the window is gray and gray, and there are no bright colors.
And his gaze pierced through the gray and cast far, far into the distance.
At the end of the distance, what is his little girl doing at the moment?
Liu Yusheng was already sitting on the ox cart returning home, the sun was shining overhead, and the sky was just right.
"I'm finally going home." Liu Zhixia said this.
The families on the ox cart looked at each other, and then they all pursed their lips and chuckled.
Indeed, the thought of being able to go home soon made me feel very relaxed.
In the two days I stayed here, although there were no major contradictions, the atmosphere was a little depressing.
"I guess grandparents must have been waiting for us under the locust tree early in the morning."
"Do you still have to guess this? Yes will definitely go and wait. ”
……
"I don't know if the second brother is back, he is closer to home."
"We'll find out when we get back."
……
From time to time, the two children put on a headless sentence, which has no special meaning, just homesickness.
The ox cart goes from Liangshui Village to the town, and you need to take a bus to Xinghua Village to get home.
Originally, Liu Da wanted to give more money and let people send them directly to their homes, but at the entrance of the town, he saw the old man Liu wearing a straw hat sitting on an ox cart and looking in this direction frequently.
The old man is really, the pick-up action has been upgraded, don't wait for the village entrance, just run to the town entrance and wait!
Liu Yusheng also saw the old man at a glance, stood up with Liu Zhixia's shoulder, raised his little hand and waved it vigorously, and shouted loudly, "Grandpa!" Grandfather! See I didn't, Grandpa! ”
attracted passers-by to look sideways, and then, smiled.
"Ouch! My family has arrived! Old Man Liu immediately smiled and shouted nervously, "Sit down, sit down!" Don't stand up, be careful of falling! ”
When the ox cart stopped next to the old man, the old man immediately picked up Liu Yusheng, "I knew that you would definitely come back early, and I couldn't stay at home, so I simply borrowed the ox cart of the Li family to come out to pick you up." ”
"Grandpa has been waiting for a long time?" It's almost noon, and if Grandpa comes early, he'll have to wait all morning.
"It didn't take long for me to sit here and chat with people, and the time passed in a while, hahaha!"
"Did you come out for breakfast, are you hungry?"
"Eat it, you are now a housekeeper who is better than your grandmother, and grandpa doesn't dare to foul the law." Pinching the baby's little face, the old man was happy, "Grandma made delicious food at home, just wait for us to go home for dinner, hurry up and move things over, let's go home!" ”
The ox cart is back on the road, slowly and steadily.
Liu Da moved to the front of the car to catch the car, and the old man sat behind with Liu Yusheng in his arms.
The next road was full of Liu Yusheng's chirping and little sparrow-like voices.
Listening to her grandfather's sometimes hearty laughter, she was very happy and peaceful.
With her closest family members to her, she couldn't stop wanting to speak.
I'm so happy, that kind of joy, and I want to convey it to my family.
Let them, all infected her happiness. If you want to chat with more like-minded people about "Peasant Girl Concubine, Don't Be Too Sweet", follow "Hot Network Article or rd444" on WeChat to chat with more book friends about your favorite books
