Chapter 280: Yanzhou

But because of the relationship between the heat and mosquitoes, the palm beads can't sleep at all. She sat on the threshold with a large fan and looked up at the starry sky, and from her angle, she saw the brightest star in the north.

The aunt of the family was a little strange when she saw that Zhangzhu hadn't slept yet, and she walked out with a wooden basin.

"Aren't you sleepy, girl?"

"It's hot, and some can't sleep."

The aunt said, "Yes, it's almost the autumn equinox, and the weather is still so hot." ”

"Auntie, do you have anything else to do, I can help you, please don't be polite."

However, the aunt said: "It's nothing anymore, by the way, are you going to Yanzhou City?" ”

Zhangzhu did not shy away from it, she nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Where are you from?"

Zhangzhu replied, "The capital." ”

"Well, that's a nice place, but why don't you take the boat by water instead of by land?"

It's not because she suffers from seasickness, so she has to go by land. She smiled and said, "It's still quite troublesome to only take the water route, and there are a lot of accidents on the water, especially in this weather." ”

The aunt said, "That's true. ”

Zhangzhu felt that the family had a lot of free houses, and half of them were built with tiles, which was a good family in the village, but why was the aunt the only one at home, she asked her doubts. The aunt's face, which was still smiling, suddenly became solemn.

"I'm the only one in our family, and when the Jin people came in that day, I happened to go back to my mother's house, which is more than ten miles away from here. When I returned, there was no one left in the house. My mother-in-law, who is in charge of the house, as well as my son, daughter-in-law, and my grandson, who is only two years old......" The aunt couldn't cry anymore when she said this, and she scolded fiercely: "Those animals, the two-year-old children, they didn't let go." ”

The cry of losing her family is very clear in her heart, and she comforted: "If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing." ”

"But I'm still alive, why am I still living in this world and suffering."

The aunt obviously looks very calm, but is it also disguised?

"Is it sin? I used to think about it this way, but then I didn't think it was all like that...... It's also an honor for them to take a good look at the world instead of them, you are okay and alive. At least there is one more person in your family in this world. ”

The aunt felt a little strange when she heard Zhangzhu's words, and it was inconvenient for her to ask what she wanted to ask.

"When was that?"

The aunt said calmly: "Last year, the eighteenth winter month. ”

"Huh? It's not been a year in the past, is the golden man so rampant? It's already very close to Yanzhou City. Who is the general who is guarding here now? ”

The aunt said: "It seems that the surname is Zhuo, and I have never seen it." If General Xie was still around, those golden people would definitely not be so rampant. They didn't dare to break into the customs at all. Even General Wei has never been so powerful before, we just want to live a few days of peace. ”

Zhangzhu couldn't think of a general she knew or heard of surnamed Zhuo, and it seemed that he was temporarily transferred to fill Wei Gan's position. However, when she heard someone mention her father, she felt a little kind.

"Auntie, have you seen General Xie?"

"I seem to have seen it once, when my son was still young, he passed through the village with his people, and because he was very powerful, the people in the village respected him. In order to thank him, the villagers gathered a lot of food and meat to give to them, but General Xie did not take any of them, and asked us to tell them if we had any difficulties. In the past, we had to travel a long way to fetch water in our village, but later General Xie's subordinates helped us dig the pond on the opposite side to make it easier to use water. Why do such good people ...... It didn't work out well. ”

She knew that her father was not only good at fighting, but also wanted to be sympathetic to the people, love the people like a son, and had been loved by the local people since a long time ago.

"The court said that General Xie betrayed the intelligence of Da Chu to the enemy country, so he caused a murder. What does Auntie think about this? ”

When the aunt heard this, she immediately angrily defended: "How is it possible, how is it possible!" General Xie hates those murderous Jin people the most, how can he have dealings with Jin people, this is simply slander. ”

"But the above says that the evidence is conclusive......" This is what Xun Shao said to her.

"Something must be wrong, definitely!" The aunt looked indignant.

"The above things are really unpredictable, this world is not peaceful, auntie must take care of yourself, and you must live well."

The aunt said: "Yes, this world is not good, and human life is not worth anything at all." ”

Zhangzhu continued to look up at the brightest star, she suddenly remembered Chu Yuanzhen, a few days ago, Xun Shao said that they were trapped in Changxing City and would soon be arrested, and now that so much time has passed, what is the situation on their side. Chu Yuanzhen, don't be caught, I still want to repay your kindness! The palm bead silently made a wish to the brightest star.

After staying in this family for one night, Zhangzhu did not sleep well. The next day, when she was on the road, she sat in the car and was a little drowsy. I don't know how long it took before I heard the leap student exclaiming, "God, we have arrived, we have arrived, we have finally arrived." ”

Hearing the exclamation of Runsheng, she rubbed her eyes, and she saw the continuous city in that area. She finally came to the place where her father had guarded, where she wanted to look for the traces left by her father back then, and find the truth that was hidden back then.

However, when they entered the city, they ran into trouble.

"Where are you from, and what are you doing in the city?"

Liao Kai said: "A few officials, we are businessmen, and we go to the city to do business. ”

However, the soldiers guarding the city gate did not seem to be happy, someone lifted the curtain and looked into the car, and let Zhangzhu get out of the car, and they also turned the car through to make sure that there was nothing to hide, and after a lot of interrogation, they let them into the city.

It doesn't seem to be going well.

Yanzhou City is bigger than Shoufeng, and the street market here looks more prosperous than Shoufeng, and it seems that it is still what I remember when I was a child.

Runsheng took the palm beads to find an inn to live temporarily, and after running around on the road for some time, he was finally able to settle down. Zhangzhu took a happy bath in the room, lay down on the wide and flat bed, she looked at the top of the tent, and kept asking herself what step to take next. Maybe she should take some time to get to know the local customs first, and then ask about the events of the year along the way. In short, step by step, impatience is taboo.
