Chapter 028: You're Still Here

Meng Yong took a deep look at her and took it apart.

A few yellowed letters, a copper token, and a roll... Bloodstained cloth!

The two of them looked at each other and reached for the blood book at the same time.

"Why don't I read it to you?" Meng Yong smiled and tugged at the corner of it, but his eyes stared at her without blinking.

"That's for the best." Zhao Chen let go of his hand, laughed twice, and then picked up the bronze medal and played.

Meng Yong didn't care about her small movements, and thought softly through the faint light: "... In the winter of the ninth year of Yongtai, under the frequent occurrence of border troubles, Prince Wu led the Changming army to sweep the tribes of the grassland..."

His voice gradually turned low, so that people unconsciously fell into this period of years of horses and rivers-

The various ethnic groups of the grassland have invaded the border of Dachu for many years.

Whether it was to force the Great Chu to open up border trade, or to restore the tributary system a hundred years ago, its purpose was nothing more than to seek a safe way of life for the tribal people.

However, this endless entanglement, instead of achieving their goal, brought disaster to themselves.

Emperor Chu, who had just sat on the throne, was in high spirits, where was he willing to be coerced by these "barbarian tribes", and with a wave of his sleeves, he appointed his younger brother King Wu as the commander and ordered his troops to be sent to all parts of the grassland!

And Xiao Qingshan is a member of the army.

Surrounded by wars and battles all day long, he pacified one tribe after another with the old warrior king, but in just one year, most of the grassland fell under their iron hooves.

It was also at this time that he met the alien female prisoner of war, and with great emotion, he not only secretly rescued her, but also hid her.

Until the Nalan clan, the overlord of the grassland at that time, signed a submission treaty with the old warrior king after collecting all the tribes...

The war is over, and the female prisoner of war gives birth to Cui'er.

He wanted to ask the old martial king for guilt so that he could give him a name, but the change caught him off guard-

When Zhao Chen heard this, he picked out one from the letter on the ground, read it with a few glances, and then handed it to Meng Yong.

Word for word is inseparable from kidnapping, intimidation, coercion and inducement.

threatened Cui'er with her mother's life, and promised to lure her with heavy profits, the purpose was to invite Xiao Qingshan to join the organization they had built.

A non-governmental organization that claims to be a place where war and chaos in the world are peaceful, where the world is peaceful, and where the people of Li are defended.

Meng Yong's eyes were cold, and he glanced at the token that had been played with by Zhao Chen.

There are three words on it - Taipingwei!

For the sake of his beloved woman and his only child, Xiao Qingshan agreed to the other party and joined Taipingwei since then.

β€œβ€¦ In the twelfth year of Yongtai, the Great Wei invaded Hexi, and a certain commander was ordered to guard Yongchang..."

At this time, Xiao Qingshan received the first task, and at the same time, the last task.

The other party ordered him to disobey the order, lost the first town on the front line he was guarding to Great Wei, and promised that he could reunite with his family after this incident, and from then on he would live a stable life away from the battlefield.

Zhao Chen opened the rest of the letters one by one.

It is not difficult to see between the lines that Xiao Qingshan once refused this task, so these letters from Taipingwei were colder than the other, and in the end, they directly forced him with the lives of his wife and children.

"What kind of organization is this? It's too much to put on the table! Zhao Chen sneered and put the letter away, "Don't talk about threatening women and children, it's so hard to plot against individuals, Brother Meng thinks that they can harm my father?" ”

Meng Yong was silent for a long time before continuing to read the blood book: "... King Wu knows that his wife and children are lonely, although he is fearless in a hundred battles, but there is really a dilemma between the two..."

Yongchang finally lost.

not only led to a great defeat on the front line, but also opened a bloody curtain for the battle of the Chuwei border pass.

β€œβ€¦ one's own selfishness affects his comrades, his family and country, and he no longer has the shame to live in the world... Confess your sins with blood, and those who see it will be able to tell the truth... Sinner Xiao Qingshan is a masterpiece! ”

After reading it word for word, Meng Yong directly threw the blood book to her without looking at it again.

Zhao Chen stuffed the things back into his arms, leaned on him as if he had no bones, and muttered: "This person is also awkward, everything that should be done has been done, how good is it to keep your life and take Cui'er and them incognito?" Why bother being aβ€”"

Meng Yong brushed her away, and people didn't feel a little more lonely: "Instead of being idle, you might as well think about it, when will their group of people who set up a trap to harm the old martial king attack you for the sake of peace in the world." ”

"Thinking about it!" Zhao Chen frowned and sighed: "I can't even think about it, feel sorry for my father!" ”

Seeing the panic on her face, Meng Yong couldn't help but ease her expression and said softly: "The person who killed Cui'er must have nothing to do with Taipingwei, just wait for us to go out and chase and investigate." ”

She was still scared: "But what if people notice it?" Won't I die sooner? ”

"You're still there." Meng Yong bent down her beautiful eyebrows and smiled at her: "I will do my best to help you." ”

Zhao Chen stroked the cold hair that suddenly stood up, and said with a dry smile: "Brother Meng is really a person who promises him, just because of the oath he made when he was apprenticed, he is willing to accompany me in such a riskβ€”β€”"

"Helping you is not only for the sake of your teacher, but also for the people you respect."

He looked up at the sky at the mouth of the well, and the emotions in his eyes swelled suddenly: "The white horse is howling in the west wind, the spear is in trouble, even if you don't have the opportunity to see the demeanor of the old martial king, you should always do something for it." ”

"So..."He looked at Zhao Chen, word by word: "No matter who killed him, he will be investigated to the end." ”

Zhao Chen couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.

The other party's emotions are so real that she can't find the slightest suspicion, but her intuition tells her that this person can't be trusted!

I can't be trusted, but there is a place where I can use each other...

Use each other to make things happen!

Squeeze out the value of the other party!

It's not too late to tear down the bridge after crossing the river!

Moved suddenly floated on her face, she held the other party's hand tightly, and nodded vigorously with red circles in her eyes.

Meng Yong didn't withdraw his hand, but shook her back.

Some kind of alliance seems to have been quietly reached at this moment, except for two pairs of eyes full of emotions and looking at each other, each of them in the depths of each other's inreachability, hiding a crackling little abacusβ€”

"Your Highness?"

"The owner?" Two voices came at the same time.

After the two above got a response and confirmed that they were at the bottom of the well, they quickly lowered the rope down.

Seeing this, Zhao Chen hurriedly clinged to him, and firmly grasped the belt around his waist with his intact hand.

"What are you doing here?" Meng Yong asked helplessly.

She said seriously: "When I came down, I just didn't hold on tightly, my hands were pierced, I must hurry up this time!" ”

…… The bad memories in front of the Guogong Mansion made him stagnant for a while.

Silently tied Zhao Chen carefully with a rope, he persuaded himself in his heart for a long time, and then hesitated to tear her hand away and directly took her into his arms.

Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment, and the next moment he hugged him with peace of mind, rubbed his little head left and right a few times, and found his chest that was neither soft nor hard and buried his head in it.

The chest that had been smashed before hurt again, which made Meng Yong want to let go, but it can be seen that she looks comfortable and is about to fall asleep, and she stopped it again, pulled the rope a few times, and signaled the people above to exert force.

finally tossed up, and it was already waning outside.

Under the strange gaze of the other two, Meng Yong tore away the small thing that was still glued to him, and then asked lightly: "Did the person run away or killed?" ”

"The slave is incompetent, and he was escaped by the other party!" Su Yan retracted his eyes and stared at Zhao Chen, covering his injured arm and bowing his head in shame.

Zhao Chen dragged his feet and moved into the distance, glanced at the pair of master and servant, and asked in a low voice: "Where are you injured?" It doesn't matter, right? ”

Yingchun was stunned, shook his head and said: "I'm not injured, my subordinates have always been according to what you said, the most important thing is to protect yourself, otherwise if you work hard, you may be able to keep that old man." ”

"It's okay, just run." Zhao Chenhun said nonchalantly.

But he secretly said in his heart: It's better to run, it's better to runβ€”β€”!
