Chapter 1: Homecoming

Next Chapter

In the depths of winter, the weather was suddenly cold, a few days ago there was a rare snow in the Daning Kingdom, but unfortunately the accumulation of snowflakes did not last long, today the sun shines, the ground is only left with some mottled white.

The snow melts, the temperature drops, and the snow condenses into ice, and if a person is not careful, he can slip out of the way.

Under the eaves are long ice picks, which look crystal clear and beautiful.

Jiang Mengyun was practicing swords, it was obviously an extremely cold day, and she was only wearing a light blue autumn shirt, and her body was steaming at the moment, and her forehead was covered with a dense layer of fine sweat. Fortunately, the maids had shoveled aside the snow in the yard, and now the open space in the middle had been completely dried, so it did not delay her daily homework.

With a long sword in her hand, she was athletic and agile, sometimes striding straight and sometimes turning over and sweeping. When it is slow, it is faintly dark, and when it is fast, it seems that a butterfly is flying, neat and chic, and the little maids who can see the onlookers applaud again and again, one by one, full of energy, jumping and clapping and cheering, simply treating this eldest lady as a master outside the world, and her eyes are full of worship.

Noisy and noisy, Jiang Mengyun was not affected, until the momentum was closed and the long sword was sheathed, she turned around with a smile and said: "Go and go, you will be blindly coaxed, you will shout nonsense, and you will be watched as if you are juggling every day!" Come, just now you have the loudest voice, Ling'er, tell me, okay, my long sword dance, what's good? ”

She casually nodded to the little maid standing at the front and asked, the maid was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, "hehe" laughed: "If you return to Miss, it looks good." ”

"......" Jiang Mengyun was speechless, and nodded with his slender fingers, and a smile bent over next to him: "You laugh, then you say, what's good?" ”

"Miss asked me?" The little maid who was ordered was also stunned, looked left and right, Ling'er didn't understand, and she didn't understand it even more. Blinking her eyes, she replied tentatively, "Okay...... Pretty? ”

"Repeated!" Jiang Mengyun pouted, and gently gave the maid's head with the hilt of the long sword, hating that iron is not steel, "Look at you all look very smart, why are you stupid like this?" I can't shoot a sycophant, I can't plagiarize a sycophant, and I can't innovate a sycophant? Go, go, go, ......."

She said, driving people out like ducks: "Today, my father and brothers are back in Beijing, although it is an urgent order from the prince, but I am afraid that they will not return to the front line for a while, and maybe they will come back to live for a few days before leaving." Don't stand still with me, go and watch, and if your mother is too busy to do so, stay there and do your bidding, and I'll go in and wash my clothes and go ahead." ”

The little maids were not afraid of her, and responded with a smile, and walked out in a swarm.

Ling'er thought about it and felt inappropriate: "Miss, the slave maid stays, otherwise if you have to add water when the water is cold, there will be no one to serve you, or ......" always said that they had no brains, she didn't admit defeat no matter what, "Don't wash it first, wipe it with hot water, change your clothes, and wait for the master and young master to come back before ......"

"Look at what you can!"

Jiang Mengyun pulled out the long sword with a "sigh", looked at the sharp sword body in his right hand, made a gesture to throw it, but held back, looked at the scabbard of his left hand, and couldn't help but throw it towards Ling'er: "On such a cold day, I don't wash it!" Oh, wipe it, you think it's so beautiful, you, don't run, you stop me, you guys can't find the dead girl in the north when you see your brothers, I ......"

Ling'er waited for her to finish speaking, she ran away screaming, and when she went out, she accidentally stepped on the ice next to her, and she was in a hurry like a monkey fist, and finally grabbed the threshold before she really sat down.

Jiang Mengyun was panting, and she seemed to be angry, but in the blink of an eye, she was ruined by her funny appearance, and laughed out loud: "Yes!" Let you run! ”

These ghosts and spirits, saying that they have no brains, are smart at this time in order to see their brothers earlier, and not to let her be left alone.

It wasn't until everyone dispersed that Jiang Mengyun turned around and entered the house. The maid had prepared the hot water before, and the temperature was just right at this time, and she didn't need to be served, so she took off her clothes and soaked in the water, and the warm water wrapped her body, and she was suddenly comfortable.

Winter is suitable for bathing, but now she was in a hurry, so she didn't soak for too long, just washed her body hastily and changed into a thicker winter shirt to go out.

The maids who come and go are busy, and the General's Mansion is rarely so lively today.

Jiang Mengyun's mood is getting better and better, she hasn't seen her father and brothers for some days, this time the second prince of Liang Guo personally marched, and he actually beat Daning Kingdom and retreated one after another, and his father was under great pressure as the head coach, but fortunately, the situation improved a few days ago, and he has won a few more games.

It was time to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but I didn't know what had happened in the palace, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince urgently summoned his father to return to Beijing immediately.

Things are a little weird, but she really can't know the truth about the things in the court, no matter how smart she is, she can only guess by clues.

Now that the queen mother is seriously ill, the emperor personally went to Taihu Xiyuan to serve the sick, leaving only the prince in charge of the country.

The crown prince is young, maybe he was frightened by the previous defeats, or maybe he couldn't fight the forces of the four princes in the court, and he wanted to find his father to come back to support him......

But in short, it's not a good thing.

The only benefit is probably to reunite their loved ones. Thinking of this, Jiang Mengyun became happy again, thought about it, and went back to the back room to take out the long sword. I haven't seen my second brother for a long time, and I must take the school exam, and if I don't have the weapons at hand, I will have to come back again.

It was not much different from her estimated time, and when she walked to the middle hall, it was already lively outside.

A little guy shouted into the door: "The master and the young master are back!" The entire general's mansion was as lively as a festival, and the three doors were opened at the same time. Her mother was dressed very ceremoniously and stood at the front to greet people, her long hair was coiled high, and she was wearing the new red jacket made a few days ago, which made her skin more and more snow-white and clear.

Although he is in his early forties, he is not old at all because of proper maintenance and affection for his father. At first glance, it's only about thirty.

The maids and maids who followed behind were all happy, and Jiang Mengyun was also smiling, just looking out of the door, waiting for someone to come in.

"We're back!" Before anyone arrived, the sound arrived first, and then the second brother Jiang Yunfeng was the first to enter the door, looked at his mother, and shouted loudly: "Mother, the child is back!" He turned his head and saw Jiang Mengyun again, and before others could react, he suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist and stabbed at her abruptly.

There was no time to greet his father and eldest brother behind him, Jiang Mengyun subconsciously turned over lightly at the fastest speed, dodged the first attack in an instant, and then moved neatly, stood and then froze, and drew his sword!
