Yue Tang: "Why else, he is the cousin of the former emperor and is enshrined here." ”

As for the other reasons, she wanted to see how much the monk knew.

Xue Huai didn't care about Yue Tang's temptation, and said bluntly: "All the previous Lanxi kings of His Royal Highness King Hui died unexpectedly, and only a person like His Royal Highness King Hui, who has the bloodlines of Duan, Yue, and Ke, can guard this place, so that the many forces here dare not act rashly." For the first time, there was some compelling burning in his gaze, which made Yue Tang feel that gaze was like a ray of sunlight that was not too dazzling.

"To protect His Royal Highness King Hui is to protect Lanxi." Xue Huai said this calmly, the burning in his eyes retracted, and the expression on his face returned to peace and understanding, "The general knows it." ”

Without waiting for Yue Tang to answer, Xue Huai's lips had a smile, and he said softly: "The more the general asks, the more he wants to prove that he believes in it—thank the general for trusting." ”

"Who believed?" Yue Tang sneered, and ordered the soldiers loudly, "Someone who comes, from now on, keep a close watch over this person, and report to me every move, word and deed!" ”

At the edge of the valley stream, Yue Tang looked down at the thin sheets of ice that flowed slowly in the stream.

It's still not cold enough. She said to herself.

If it was cold enough, the stream would have frozen all of it, and there would be no more murmuring of water.

Father is very fond of objects with water, the fan embroidery screen is mostly depicting water paintings and poems, even the house in the wall of the Sumeru seat has water ripples and waves, implying that the ghost sees this house also has to take a detour, take the water of the "melt and turn around" meaning. Not to mention the aggregation of the eaves at home, the rain gathers in the courtyard and walks along, taking the meaning of "water for wealth". Even the embroidered pattern of the family crest is drawn by the father himself.

She still remembers that a year ago, in the summer, she raised some bowls of lotus and put them in the house, and loved to take care of them every day, but they were stolen by the eldest brother's son and put them in the ice cellar. By the time she found the bowl lotus in the depths of the ice cellar, she had already frozen to death. She was angry to find the ten-year-old nephew theory, but she was protected by the master mother and sister-in-law, and she couldn't let her out of the half-reprimand, so the little nephew hid behind his grandmother and mother and snickered. When my father came back that night, he just laughed it off when he heard about it, and the eldest brother didn't mention it.

Yes, it was just a few bowl lotuses, and they didn't see it as her hard work or her preference, let alone her dignity.

So soon she caught and killed a deer raised by her nephew, killed and ate it, and brought a plate of delicacies cooked with venison to her nephew.

The nephew made a big fuss, the housemother and sister-in-law couldn't hold it down, and even the eldest brother couldn't hold it back when he came back, and he was going to come to her with his nephew to ask for an explanation.

But he was stopped by his father.

She didn't know what her father said, but the eldest brother not only didn't come to make trouble, but instead sent a bowl of lotus, which was more precious than the variety she had raised before.

She didn't know the reason but no one could ask, but she always felt that there was some conspiracy growing in the dark when she looked at those bowl lotuses every day, so she put the bowl lotus in a place where she couldn't see it, out of sight and out of mind.

Until the eve of her first expedition with her eldest brother, because she fell asleep under the cloister, she overheard her father's conversation with her eldest brother when she woke up—

"What's wrong with having her be your lieutenant? can let her charge for you, and when she becomes famous, you don't have to bother to take precautions, just let her marry and enjoy her success. "It's my father's voice.

"Just like the bowl lotus, it is really extremely unwise to have a big dislike with her for such a trivial matter." The father was kind and seductive, "It's just a small profit, what's the pity for her?" The fourth girl is a person who knows gratitude, and what you give her can be taken back exponentially. The more power she has to give, the better, because she will eventually marry someone and be attached to other strong people. The strong will feel tempted by her power, but in fact? When she got married, she didn't have the surname Yue. ”

The eldest brother responded cheerfully: "I see, my son has been taught." ”

My father sighed with relief: "I have seen so much water on weekdays, I should always make some progress, and I always think about what the water will be like when everything is done." Does the water rush straight through the mountain that blocks it? Does the water resist when it meets the covered stone? Flexibility and harmony, no one can compete with water. ”

"Water is both intangible and tangible, colorless and colorless, soft and hard, hot and cold. In this world, there is nothing like water. The father's voice was a little heavy, "Song'er, the goodness is like water, it is all said to others, you should know what it means to be a father." ”

The footsteps of the two gradually faded away, and Yue Tang was stunned under the corridor.

When the army set out the next morning, the eldest brother gave her a luminous cup that symbolized victory and returned, and personally poured her with water, saying that she could not drink alcohol because of the march, and that this was the clearest spring water in Yuquan Mountain, and hoped that she would drink it.

She drank it all on the back of the horse on which the soldiers looked up.

It was obviously warm spring water, but she only felt cold to the bottom of her lungs.

After that, she didn't like water so much, but she liked everything that could make it change – like snow, like ice.

The thin ice floating in front of her made her unhappy, and she lifted her foot and gently stepped on the thin ice by the stream, crushing it little by little. Then she took a deep breath and turned to look at the soldier trotting towards her. The soldier quickly saluted when he approached her, and said, "General, the city lord of Lei has been escorted to the prison and is waiting for the general's fate." ”

Yue Tang: "Strictly guarded, no one is allowed to approach." ”

Men-Guard: "Yes! ”
