It's June.

The scorching sun hangs high in the sky, the flowers and plants in the yard are drooping, and people will not easily stand under the sun, especially a little girl with tender skin and fine flesh, who will be in danger of sunburn if she shakes a circle under the sun.

Mrs. Wen is originally from Kyoto, she has lived in Kyoto for decades, and she is familiar with the summer in Kyoto.

Even if the sun is too strong and cannot stay under the unobstructed scorching sun for a long time, the third lady Wen has long been used to it.

In the early morning of another day, when Ah Yu came to say goodbye, Mrs. Wen San left Ah Yu to talk.

She asked, "Summer in Kyoto is unbearable, and it's not as hot as the places you went to escape the heat before." Ah Su will feel that he doesn't like the summer in Kyoto, so it's better to let Ah Yu continue to go out to escape the heat next summer, okay? ”

Although the world is changing, next year's events should be planned again next year.

However, Ah Yu is getting older now, and she is no longer the little girl who was easy to coax before, and the same excuse can be used at most once, and it is impossible to use it a second time.

Instead of waiting for next year to ponder the scams, find an opportunity to make plans for a summer trip in the future.

After all, it's not every year that it's as coincidental as this year.

Ah Yu has been living with her fingers crossed recently, and she actually doesn't know the specific day General Pei was killed. I only know that the day Wen Rugu saw Pei Yin in the courtyard should be June 15. Mrs. Wen said that he wanted to go back to the other courtyard to find a very important thing, but he stayed in the other courtyard for five or six days, and there was no sign of turning back.

She looked up at Mrs. Wen San, a little strange.

Because in Wen Ru's memory, Mrs. Wen never said such a thing.

It seemed to be natural, and I never mentioned going out to escape the heat again.

"I know that Kyoto is not a place like Weizhou, but I still prefer Kyoto with four distinct seasons to Weizhou, which is full of spring all year round." Ah Yu is a nostalgic person, and there is no place more worthy of her nostalgia than the place where she grew up.

As she spoke, she seemed to think of something again, and blinked her eyes and looked at Mrs. Wen: "If my mother feels sorry for Ah Yu, it is better to let Mama Chang and them put an extra ice basin in my room." ”

"Obviously, I rarely get sick now, and even Doctor Yang said that my health is much better, but my brother still thinks that my health is not good. My brother can control the amount of ice I usually use, but he won't let me use more......"

When the little girl complained, she frowned, she felt that Wen Huan was making too much of a fuss.

Why is Wen Ning, who is still a little hairy child, can put two ice basins in the room, but she can only use one, which is too unreasonable.

Mrs. Wen looked at Ah Yu carefully, the little girl in front of her was full of vitality, without the slightest reluctance, obviously she really thought that her current life was very good.

Of course it's very good.

The people she cared about were still with her, so she had no regrets.

Mrs. Wen patted Ah Yu on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Your brother did that, it is indeed a bit excessive, when he comes to his mother, his mother will talk about him for you." ”

She paused, not wanting to give up so easily, so she said again: "Speaking of which, Ning'er has not been far away since she was born. By this time next year, Ning'er will grow up, and our family will go out to have a good time, okay? ”

Ah Yu looked at Mrs. Wen's expectant eyes and swallowed the words in her mouth.

If you want the whole family to go out and play, is that something that can be done easily?

Don't say anything else, just talk about Master Wen, who is still holding an official position in the court, unless he resigns directly, where does he get the time to go out and play. If the distance was a little closer, there would still be some possibilities, but it was obviously impossible for Mrs. Wen to go out of the distance, and it was obviously impossible to take a stroll around Kyoto.

Ah Yu thought for a while and said, "If everyone has free time at that time, then let's go out together!" ”

She is also looking forward to going out with the whole family, although she knows that the chance of this kind of thing being realized is very small.

Pei Tianyi on the other side, because of the letter sent by Pei Yin, actively abided by the doctor's instructions, and drank the medicine seriously for three meals a day, and his body, which was already in decline, improved in just a few days. By the end of May, he would be cured.

He took his henchmen and rushed to Kyoto.

Of course, when Shang Ge was preparing to return to Beijing, he had already written a memo for applying to return to Beijing in advance, and asked Shang Ge to help submit it to the emperor.

Not long ago, the reply from the annotation in Kyoto had been sent to Pei Tianyi.

He will take people back to Kyoto at this time, and no one will dare to say anything to him.

After five or six days of hard and rain, the original three-day journey was shortened to one day, and in this way, on the sixth day of the sixth month of June, it happened to be near the Tiger Leaping Gorge.

The heavy rain in summer is endless, if it weren't for the letter sent by Pei Yin, Pei Tianyi would probably have rushed directly across the Tiger Leaping Gorge with people at this time. Although the road in the middle of the Tiger Leap Gorge is indeed thrilling, how many years he has led his troops to fight and how many ups and downs he has experienced, how can he be frightened by the small Tiger Leaping Gorge.

"Is the general planning to wait for the rain to stop before passing through Tiger Leaping Gorge?" Pei Zhao is Pei Tianyi's personal guard, he saw Pei Tianyi let everyone rest on the spot, and even planned to find a place nearby where they could camp, as if they had a plan to stay for a long time, which was very different from the previous fire.

Before leaving, Pei Tianyi thought of what was written on the letter sent by Pei Yin, at first he had the intention of bypassing the Tiger Leaping Gorge, but then carefully studied the map, and he found that if he wanted to take people to bypass the Tiger Leaping Gorge, it would undoubtedly be a lot more distance than other roads, as little as three or five days, as much as seven or eight days, and he didn't want to waste so much time.

However, Ah Yu's heart is not easy to live up to.

Pei Tianyi shook his head at Pei Zhao, and found a nimble person among the henchmen he brought, and sent him to the front to investigate the situation. The most important thing is the situation on both sides of the Tiger Leap Gorge, whether there is a landslide, or a prelude to a flash flood.

All of them are athletic, if you want to find the most powerful one among them, it must be Pei Zhao.

When Pei Zhao went to inquire about the news, no one else was idle.

The rain was pouring down, and even in the afternoon, the sky was still overcast, as if it was approaching dusk.

According to Pei Tianyi's plan, although someone went to inquire about the news, since he had already issued an order to camp on the spot, that is, no matter what the road ahead, he had already decided not to go forward.

Looking at the Tiger Leaping Gorge in front of him from a distance, Pei Tianyi's hand unconsciously touched the crested hairpin in his sleeve, which was a gift he wanted to give to his wife in the past, but he never could give it.

I wonder what Ah Yu, who is far away in Kyoto, will be doing at this moment?

When he returned to Kyoto this time, except for the people on the throne who knew the news, the others, even his own son, did not know about it.

And the people of the Wen family naturally don't know.

Maybe this summer, he doesn't need to pretend to be someone else's identity, and he can appear in front of Ah Yu openly.

It's just that I don't know if Ah Yu will remember his appearance at that time!

Thinking about things in his heart, Pei Tianyi's eyes unconsciously revealed a little tenderness, so he was facing away from a group of henchmen at the moment, and no one deliberately stared at him, so no one knew his true feelings at this time.

Suddenly, Pei Tianyi's hand in his sleeve was stunned, and when he looked up, there was no trace of tenderness in his eyes, but full of coldness.

"Alert!"

The two words that came out of his mouth, the voice was neither high nor low, but it made the people around him stunned, and everyone was already arrayed in an instant, making a look of being ready to go, which can be described as a prohibition.

Soon, Pei Zhao had already carried a half-comatosed man back to their camp.

The person on his shoulder had broken limbs, his chin had been removed, and his whole person looked very distorted.

Pei Tianyi glanced at the man who was trembling on the ground and asked Pei Zhao, "Who is this person?" ”

It's not that he doesn't want to ask more carefully, but he just needs to start, and someone will naturally explain other things clearly for him.

Sure enough, Pei Zhao had already talked about what he was doing in Tiger Leaping Gorge at this time.

On both sides of the Tiger Leap Gorge are barren peaks, and there are many strange rocks on the mountain, although it is pouring rain, but it does not look like there will be a landslide or a flash flood. However, as long as Pei Tianyi said it, in the eyes of Pei Zhao and others, it was almost equivalent to a truth-like existence.

Therefore, when Pei Zhao was exploring the Tiger Leaping Gorge, he carefully hid his tracks along the peaks on one side of the mountain, and tried to find an answer on the mountain full of strange rocks.

The signs of the landslide have not been found yet, but he first found a few traces of human activity, and these traces are very clear, the heavy rain has not swept them away, obviously these traces found by Pei Zhao did not appear for a long time, and even the people who left these traces may have left from the direction in front of them not long ago, and they are still on the peaks on both sides of the Tiger Leaping Gorge, and they don't know where they will hide.

Pei Zhao carefully covered up the traces he had seen, and at the same time followed the traces found in front of him, and continued to track down, trying to find out; People who leave traces.

"I followed the traces on the mountain all the way to search, and then I saw a group of people who were trying to pry the rocks on the mountain, they were outnumbered, but I was only one, thinking that two fists were invincible to four hands, so I took advantage of the fact that he was alone, and caught the person back......"

He explained his experience during the exploration process, and even felt that it was very bland, and there was nothing to think about.

But Pei Tianyi in front of him didn't think like this.

Pei Tianyi asked people to check the person who Pei Zhao bundled in, he was probably just an ordinary person, there was no poison between his teeth, and there were no poisonous needles between his fingers. He asked Pei Zhao to put people's chins up, and found a subordinate who was good at interrogation to listen to the news from the other party's mouth.

"He is a gangster from a nearby village, and someone paid them to go to Tiger Leaping Gorge to mine stones, saying that ten catties of stones can be exchanged for one catty of coarse grain. If it weren't for the fact that the person who spent the money had not been old, weak, sick and disabled, the whole village might have gone up the mountain to mine stones. ”

Pei Liu, who was wearing a wooden mask, arched his hands and spoke word by word.

Pei Liu is Pei Tianyi's subordinate who picked up from the pile, he offended people in the past and was disfigured, and after he arrived at Pei Tianyi's side, he gave himself a new name, and after putting on a mask, he was separated from before.

"I asked them why they had to go up the mountain to mine stones on rainy days, and he said that the big merchant who paid for the stones would only stay around for half a month, and now that the half-moon period has come, if they don't mine in the rain, they won't be able to find anything as cheap as now."

Indeed, although a pound of coarse grains is not worth much money.

But if ten catties of stones can be exchanged for one catty of coarse grains, it is really too cost-effective.

Pei Tianyi narrowed his eyes, although he had been away from the court for a long time, he had never lost his vigilance.

The big businessmen who couldn't ask their names, the villagers who braved the rain to mine the rocks above the Tiger Leap Gorge, and the overly superior conditions between the two to the villagers, all told the conspiracy.

Just when Pei Tianyi was about to go to interrogate him in person, there was a sudden roar from the side of Tiger Leaping Gorge, he looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that the peaks on both sides of Tiger Leap Gorge were like tofu scum built high and high, and they fell down after the wind and rain, and I don't know if the villagers who mined the rocks in Pei Zhao's mouth could escape.

The gangster, whose limbs were broken off and only his chin was closed, happened to see the Tiger Leaping Gorge in the distance at this time.

I only heard him scream, and I fainted.

The peaks on both sides of the Tiger Leap Gorge are barren, and the fields near the village are not fertile enough. It is also thanks to the fact that after the emperor ascended the throne, he gave amnesty to the world and exempted taxes in many places, and the same is true near Huyue Gorge, so they can barely save some money.

The gangsters captured by Pei Zhao grew up eating hundreds of family meals, and even the big businessman who exchanged stones for food was also found by him from outside, his original intention was to repay the fathers and villagers in the village, but he never expected that the bones of those people who had been taking care of him in the village would be gone.

He couldn't accept such a painful price for a while, so he fainted.

However, the other people present did not know the reason, and after seeing that the gangster had just fallen asleep and was fine, they put it aside and looked at it.

The momentum of the collapse in front had stopped, Pei Tianyi and his henchmen continued to rush to Huyue Gorge, and instructed others to search and rescue the villagers buried under the rocks as much as possible, and even he himself took the lead in rummaging.
