Night.

Xiao Mansion is different from the past, because there are a few more children, so Xiao Yu ordered the maid to prepare a lot of delicacies, sugar porridge lotus, lion's head, crab roe tofu, Jiangmi button meat, salted duck, etc., all of which are famous dishes in Jinling City.

Xiao Yu personally divided two chicken legs for Ran Ran and Li Mu, and seemed to mention it casually: "When do you plan to return to Chang'an?" ”

"The return date has not been decided, maybe I have to stay in Jinling for a few days before going somewhere else." Su Jiu saw that Lu Zhi had no appetite, so he sandwiched a chicken soup dumpling for him, "Try it, it can be regarded as a famous spot in Jiangnan." ”

"Thank you, sister." Lu Zhi smiled well-behaved, and An An ate the soup dumplings in parts.

Xiao Yu looked at the behavior of the two of them and frowned secretly.

After dinner, Su Jiu was about to take Ran Ran and Li Mu to take a bath to relieve fatigue, when Xiao Yu suddenly sent someone to invite him.

She stepped into the study in the front yard, the fire glowing with a pale golden glow, and her father was sitting behind the bookcase, writing with a pen.

"Daddy."

She whispered softly.

Xiao Yu put down the last stroke, put the brush on the blue and white pen mountain, and said: "It stands to reason that I shouldn't say these words, it's just that your mother and father are far away in southern Xinjiang, and there is no way to mention you." ”

"Daddy laughed...... Su Jiu stepped into the threshold, stood behind him, and carefully sorted out the bookcase for him, "In my heart, there is no difference between you and my biological father. In the future, I will also provide for you in your old age. ”

The sentence "pension to the end" made Xiao Yu's nose sour inexplicably.

He said, "Then I'll be blunt." Lu Zhi likes you, I can see it. But Xiaojiu, you are now Xiao Tingchen's queen, how can you spend time with him as a foreign man? Even, I don't exclude his liking. You tell me honestly, after living in Jinling for a few days, do you still want to go with him to other places to enjoy the mountains and rivers? ”

was reprimanded by Xiao Yu with a straight face, Su Jiu was helpless.

She had to tell the story of how she and Xiao Tingchen made a deal with the ghost prison.

Xiao Yu was a little relieved when he heard that Lu Zhi's time was short.

He bowed slightly, and said: "But he is a foreign man after all, and Xiaojiu should still be careful to avoid it." If you want to play in the mountains or something, don't continue. In this way, you will stay in Jinling until Xiao Tingchen pacifies the ghost prison and comes to pick you up in person. ”

Su Jiu couldn't cry or laugh.

She secretly glanced at the letter paper on the bookcase, expecting that his father must be writing a letter to Xiao Tingchen.

She pursed her lips, and suddenly shook Xiao Yu's arm coquettishly, "Daddy, how can you regret agreeing to someone else's business?" If you're really worried, join us. ”

Xiao Yu couldn't stand her little daughter's coquettishness the most.

He had to keep a straight face, "I'm leaving, who will take care of this ancestral mansion?" ”

"Please take care of the housekeeper. Daddy has been here for many years, and it is time to go out for a walk and see the scenery of other places. In addition, with the company of Burning Ran, our journey will not be boring! ”

The girl's voice is sweet and soft, revealing harmless coquettishness.

Xiao Yu finally smiled, and poked her forehead helplessly, "...... you"

After all, Xiao Yu refused to go on a tour with them.

In the afternoon of this day, Su Jiu called Lu Zhi alone, and the two of them took a carriage to the mountains on the outskirts of the city.

The top of the mountain is facing the water.

A lonely tomb stands here, the ancient plum next to the tomb is rugged and stout, and the posture is like looking at the Jinling City in the prosperous Qingping in the distance.

Lu Zhi watched Su Jiu clean the grave and offer incense to worship, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Whose grave is this, worthy of my sister to sweep the tomb herself?" ”

"The one sleeping here is the former head of our academy. He is a very strange person, obviously living a poor and miserable life, but he has the ambition of having thousands of mansions and sheltering the poor people in the world. is obviously a talented man who can top the high school list and has a bright future, but he sacrificed his life just to save those few children who are not cockfighting lackeys...... Such a person is very powerful and worthy of admiration, isn't it? Su Jiu asked with a smile.

Lu Zhi was silent.

He didn't like Su Jiu to praise other men in front of him, that would more clearly contrast his meanness and selfishness.

Su Jiu walked to his side and overlooked the mountains and rivers with him.

"The mountains and rivers of the Central Plains are really beautiful. The scenery of the homeland is even more moving. I would like to turn into a swallow, even if it flies south in winter, when the grass grows and the warbler flies, I still remember the direction of my homeland when I return from spring......"

The girl's voice was soft and graceful.

Lu Zhi looked at her sideways, Twilight jumping on the tip of her nose and face, and even the strands of her hair were dyed pale gold.

The spring breeze passed, and her blue skirt flipped and swirled, like rippling blue waves.

And her eyes are so bright and joyful, as soon as she bumps into it, she will indulge in half her life.

Lu Zhi somewhat understands why Xiao Tingchen and Xie Rongjing, two men, would spend ten years or more loving her.

He lowered his head gloomily, "Sister, I know that I am deeply guilty, obviously I provoked the war, but when I was about to die in the ghost prison, I left my country and the people behind and ran to the Central Plains alone to enjoy the mountains and rivers......"

Su Jiu touched his head and chuckled, "What Central Plains, here, is also your homeland!" ”

Lu Zhi was stunned.

Su Jiu burst into a sweet smile, "Xiao Tingchen is not a person who kills innocents indiscriminately, he will definitely solve this dispute completely in the shortest possible time and with the fewest casualties." Most of the people in the ghost prison are the descendants of sinners exiled there in the Central Plains. But woe to the children, they should not bear everything for the fault of their elders. Lu Zhi, wait, it won't be long before the Ghost Prison and the city wall of the Central Plains will be completely smashed. One family in the world is the great same. ”

The girl's tone was very firm.

She firmly trusts Xiao Tingchen, and after experiencing so many tortures together, what she can hand over to him is the trust of life and death.

The sunset at dusk is warm.

At this moment, Lu Zhi was very envious of Xiao Tingchen.

After a short period of envy, those dark obsessions in his heart gradually shattered and disappeared, and he no longer dreamed of the territory of the Central Plains, nor did he think of being able to marry the woman next to him as his wife.

He raised his eyes and looked into the distance, three or two white cranes flew up from the sandbar in the center of the river, and swept leisurely into the distant sky with the water of the river.

The sunset is like a rao, and the green mountains are dyed.

Su Jiu said that such a beautiful place is his homeland......

He smiled, "If you have to meet your sister, you have no regrets in death." ”

……

At this time, the ghost prison.

The tall and majestic city walls have no end in sight, dividing the world into two distinct parts.

The display of Dayong's army is neat and solemn.

Before the battle, Xiao Tingchen took the lead, and there were fierce generals such as Kaiyuansheng, Xie Rongjing, and Xiao Weihua around him.

Not far away, Sikong Chen, Su Runmo and other Wenchen sat firmly on the Taishi chair, gently shaking the feather fan and talking and laughing.

The tall gates slowly opened.

The ancestor of Chonglou personally led the army, and he was slowly coming with Buddha beads.

Xiao Tingchen's thin lips hooked lightly.

Today is the day of a decisive battle.

Even if he gambles everything, he will take the ghost prison!

，

Today, I visited the wide and narrow alleys, Qingyang Palace and Du Fu's thatched cottage, the thatched hut of Du Gongbu is really dilapidated, and I remembered the "Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind" written by him, "There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy".
