Ritsu Zichuan didn't get up to chase Qingzhi, since Qingzhi kissed him in the winery, he had already decided that the two were a couple, he said at that time, 'You can only get married after revenge' was to explain to Qingzhi that the marriage period needed to be postponed, and he never dreamed that Song Qingzhi would misunderstand that he refused under his pretext.

So Qingzhi ran away with an embarrassed face, he thought it was just a girl's shyness, just give her a little space.

There are many shortcomings in Ritsu Zichuan's life, when he was young, he was not accompanied by his father, his family was broken when he was five years old, although Uncle Shen went to the prison in time to exchange for another little boy to escape from him, but his mother was still killed, and he always felt that it was his fault that he did not protect his mother.

Growing up in the mountains, there is a lack of fireworks in the world.

Later, when he met Qingzhi, both of them were not by their side when the other party needed them the most.

Ritsukogawa slowly lay down on the grass, looking at the stars in the sky, he didn't feel that there was anything to be sad about the previous missing, and it would be good to slowly make up for it in the future.

What's more, there are green branches to accompany him to complete all the things that were missing in the past.

Thinking of Aoeda, Ritsukogawa smiled slightly, he was glad that Aoeda was a tough girl, and she could help him make up for his life.

The next morning, both of them pretended that nothing had happened last night, and Qingzhi added a bowl of porridge to Ritsukochuan and asked casually, "Are you really not going to help the herd team drive away the Tibetan people?" ”

"Do you want me to go?"

Aoeda thought for a moment, "If you can help, you should go, right?" ”

After all, people always have to have a sense of responsibility, and if they are too selfish, they are really uneasy.

"You're not scared to stay here alone?"

"Fortunately, this is the farthest valley from the country of Fan."

Ritsukogawa thought carefully for a while, watched Qingzhi finish washing the dishes, and rode to the head man.

From then on, he began to patrol with the shepherds' cavalry, and did not return home, and the sheep were herded by Uncle Ha.

Qingzhi is accompanied by Aunt Ha every day, and occasionally other aunts also come to chat, or borrow a textile machine, although Ritsu Zichuan is not around, life is not lonely.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, none of the people patrolling the pastoral team returned home for reunion, and Qingzhi went to Ha's house for a year.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Qingzhi was bowing his head to make socks, and the door was pushed open with a 'pop', and Aunt Ha ran in and shouted: "Qingzhi! Have you heard?! One hundred cavalry of the Tibetan people were defeated by us! The prefectural commander wants to personally commend the young men who are the leaders of the pastoral team! ”

Aunt Ha's round face was bright and red with excitement, the news was spread by the shepherds beating horses all over several mountains, Uncle Ha immediately came back and told Aunt Ha when he heard it, and Aunt Ha immediately ran to tell Qingzhi after hearing it.

Prefectural awards? Ritsu Zichuan went to see the county magistrate of Ketuo Town, is it okay? Will anyone find out who he is?

Aunt Ha didn't notice the abnormality of Qingzhi, but still took her hand and chattered endlessly, saying that it was because the sheep in Ketuo Mountain were particularly supportive, and the young men were strong and defeated the special cavalry!

Ritsukogawa came back the next day, and Aoeda asked about the details of the battle, and he only said "The soldiers are not tired of cheating, and they are just lucky to win", which is very dragging.

A few days later, the leading herdsmen, including Meglo, went to the town of Koto, and each received a piece of cloth and a piece of silver, and according to rumors, the county order would also be sent to the imperial court to ask for more rewards.

Everyone on the mountain looked forward to it for a while, but then there was no follow-up, and everyone forgot.

Aoeda was glad that Ritsuko Kawa was sick and didn't go to receive the award.

After a few more days, official reinforcements finally arrived, and the herders returned to their homes to herd their sheep, and life was peaceful.

It was about a month later that the people in the mountains heard the news that General Zhou had personally come to Ketuo Town.

The head man was summoned to Ketuo Town to meet General Zhou, and after returning to the mountain, he went straight to find Lu Zichuan, and said with a solemn expression: "Master Lu, General Zhou wants to personally meet the leaders of the cavalry of the pastoral team, I see that you are still the same as last time, it is better not to go." ”

Well? The head man wants to take all the credit on his head? Or on the head of his own son? Song Qingzhi couldn't help but think secretly.

The head man glanced at her, and then said: "The Zhou family has been working for the Zhou State since the time of Taizu Taizong, and has always guarded the western front, how could General Zhou come to this small place in the south of us for a group of herdsmen?" Today, he even met me in person, and he mentioned General Lu in less than three sentences, which I think is really strange. ”

Ritsukogawa and Aoeda asked at the same time, "What are you mentioning?" ”

"Saying that this roundabout, scattering, and outflanking tactics is extremely clever, it is like General Lu Yuanzhong back then, asking me if I have a relationship with General Lu."

Qingzhi couldn't help but interject: "How did you answer?" ”

"I said that General Lu trained for His Majesty back then, and I was fortunate to be in it, but I didn't know that the Fan Kingdom was coming, and I was sent to be a guide for the Lu Army, and I missed the opportunity to serve Your Majesty. The general was very interested, and asked me to recount the events of that year, and after hearing that I had a son who was not yet eighteen, he personally summoned Glo, which was a rare kindness. ”

After the head man finished speaking, he looked at Ritsu Zichuan and avoided it, thinking that General Zhou was suspicious that Meglo was the only son of the Lu family who had escaped.

The head man stood up: "Young Master Li, even if Xiao'er is in danger, I will never tell your identity." But...... You and Miss Aozhi might as well stay away for a while. ”

Before leaving, he turned around and sighed: "It's a shame that the clever plan you came up with on the battlefield at that time only told me one person, and I only told everyone that it was my idea, otherwise it would ......."

Shook his head and walked away.

Song Qingzhi didn't waste any time and began to pack his luggage and prepare to run away.

She was very confused in her heart, and her biggest worry was that General Zhou Da would come to check on the melon, and then he would drag down the Chen family and Qingdou.

Where to hide now?

She was anxious, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Ritsukogawa with a look of 'I'm not bothered at all'.

Song Qingzhi was unhappy: "Lu Zichuan, let's quickly pack up and escape, that General Zhou sounds very official", after all, he is a 'big' general, "If he is suspicious, he will definitely be able to find out about us, and besides, we don't know if this leader is reliable." ”

Ritsu Zichuan laughed and said, "It's okay, you don't have to run away, I don't think the head man looks unreliable." But...... After all, the water on the mountain is inconvenient, if you want to leave, we can just go to Lishan to live for a while, and come back when the spring sheep shearing, anyway, the news has been discovered, and it is useless to live more in the mountain. ”

"Isn't it okay to go to Lishan?" Doesn't that lead the waters home?

"It's okay, someone will notify me if something is wrong, and I won't put you in danger."

"That's fine." Song Qingzhi pretended not to hear the last half of the sentence and hurriedly cleaned up.

The next day, Meglo and several other young men were summoned to the county office of Keto Town to meet with General Zhou.

The long-awaited opportunity was in front of him, and Meglo was both excited and uneasy.

General Zhou's complexion is dark, and his stature is not high, and he looks very straightforward, not like the majestic and imposing appearance that Meglo imagined.

As soon as he saw Meglo, he smiled and said, "People say that heroes have been born out of young people since ancient times, and that's true!" Don't be inhibited, sit down and talk! ”
