On the day Mu Yu arrived in Fenghua Town, it was raining.

Dressed in a soaked hat, she rode on a horse and looked at the familiar mark on the door of a house.

The eldest prince is indeed here, that's right.

But as she hurried here day and night, she didn't have the courage to knock on the door. In the first sentence, what do you want to say?

"Eldest son, it's too late for your subordinates."

"Lu Zhan, are you okay in the past six years?"

The horses kicked their hooves restlessly in the heavy rain, just like Mu Yu's worried heart at the moment.

※

At the mouth of the alley in the distance, a man and a woman, holding an oil-paper umbrella, snuggled closely and walked together.

Today was supposed to be the day when Lu Zhan said that he was going to set off, but I don't know what was going on, and it began to rain continuously since last night, and it has not stopped until now.

When I got up early, Lu Zhan and Xu Miaoyun went to the hospital to say goodbye to the old doctor, but I didn't expect that after getting along in the past few days, the old doctor actually looked at Lu Zhan differently, and was a little bit of a confidant, so they stayed in the hospital for a meal at noon.

At the dinner table, due to Lu Zhan's injury, he couldn't drink, so Xu Miaoyun accompanied the whole process in order to liven up the atmosphere, and drank the old doctor's 30-year-old wine with both righteousness and enjoyment.

At this time, the woman's head was resting on Lu Zhan's shoulder, and her eyes were looking ahead with some confusion.

"Huh? How can there be a person in front of our family? ”

As soon as Lu Zhan entered the alley, he saw the figure standing on horseback.

"You wait here for a moment." Lu Zhan took Xu Miaoyun into an eaves at the mouth of the alley, stuffed the umbrella in her hand, and asked her to wait here.

"Hey~" Xu Miaoyun was about to speak out in a daze, and the man had already walked into the heavy rain on crutches.

Lu Zhan walked vigilantly to the door of his house, stood still a few steps away, and said to the man and the horse who had their backs to him, "Dare to ask who your Excellency is?" ”

Hearing this voice, the person immediately stiffened.

After a few seconds, the man rolled over and dismounted, turned and walked towards the man standing in the rain.

The man was draped in a big hat, his head was lowered, and Lu Zhan couldn't tell who it was for a while, until he knelt down on one knee in front of him, and said loudly, "Mu Yu has seen the eldest prince." ”

Lu Zhancai was surprised, but he didn't expect that the person who came was Mu Yu.

"How are you?" Lu Zhan took two steps forward to help the kneeling woman.

"I..." Mu Yu raised his head, through the rain curtain on the brim of his hat, and met the face that he had missed for six years.

When Lu Zhan left, he was already fifteen years old, his face had already grown, and he was already the handsome appearance of a handsome son. After six years in the army, Mu Yu once imagined that he would become black, stronger, and perhaps like those generals in Beijing, with a bit of ruffian masculinity.

But I didn't expect that at this moment, the man wearing a blue cloth shirt and having his hair and face wet by the rain had the elegance and easy-going of a folk scholar in his gestures, which seemed to be a little different from the boy who didn't like to laugh when he was a teenager.

Mu Yu saw the wooden crutch under his armpit, and his eyes were shocked, "Childe, your legs..."

Lu Zhan saw the shock in her eyes and said, "It's okay." ”

Then he turned around and walked back to the entrance of the alley just now, and pulled out a woman in a light purple shirt holding an ink-colored paper umbrella.

Mu Yu clearly saw that the eldest son, who had never been smiling, took the umbrella in the woman's hand with the hand that was not on crutches, accommodating the woman's swaying steps and walking slowly.

"Then... Who is it? Xu Miaoyun was so embarrassed at the moment that she was drinking, and she spoke with a big tongue.

But listening to it in Lu Zhan's heart, it is very cute.

"This is Mu Yu." After speaking, he nodded to Mu Yu, then walked over Xu Miaoyun's body, took her to the door of his house, pushed open the far door, and walked in.

It wasn't until the slightly drunk woman was sent into the house that Lu Zhan found that Mu Yu hadn't followed up and was still standing outside the courtyard gate.

Then he stood in the doorway and said, "Come in, close the door." ”

"No." Just one word, the familiar tone of the subordinate to the superior, Mu Yu almost bit his tongue.

Mu Yu led the horses into the small courtyard and tied them to the donkey in the corner of the courtyard, and then he didn't know where he should go.

Just now she saw it, and the eldest prince helped the woman who seemed to have eaten her mouth back to the house, and then went in by herself, and never came out.

"Oops~ I'll take it off myself! You let go! From inside the hut, a woman's slightly coquettish voice was heard.

Mu Yu's face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes that were originally looking at the thatched house also stared at the ground in an instant.

The eldest son... The eldest son, he...

Just when Mu Yu was still in shock, the door of the house opened, and Lu Zhan stood at the door and said to her, "You come in." ”

Mu Yu looked through the man's body, like the inside of the house, and on the bed behind him, there was a pink arch.

"The subordinates don't dare." Mu Yu bowed his head respectfully and said.

"It's okay, come in." Lu Zhan turned sideways and gave way to two steps. The courtyard was simple, and there was no main hall in the front hall, and the stone bench in the courtyard that could sit on it had now been wet by the rain.

Lu Zhan also had no choice, so he had to call her into the house, otherwise the two would have to go into the kitchen to talk.

Mu Yu entered the house, but he didn't dare to look up, just lowered his head and stood aside against the door.

Lu Zhan took her a stool and said "Sit", but Mu Yu did not move.

Lu Zhan looked back at the little woman who had fallen into the quilt and seemed to have fallen asleep, and then looked at the Mu Yu in front of him, who had been the same as himself since he was a child, so cold that no one could get close to him, and shook his head helplessly.

"Why are you here?" He thought that it should have been Lu Yun or Mu Feng.

Speaking of this, Mu Yu brushed the ground and knelt down again:

"Back to the master, it's useless for subordinates. Mu Feng fell for the tricks of the thieves, so he wrote the letter to lure the master back to Beijing. Afterwards, we searched for you in many ways without success, and we didn't find it until now, because it was too late! ”

These situations have been roughly guessed by Lu Zhan in the past few days in the town.

"It was Lu Yun who told you, I'm here, right?" At the mention of the word Lu Yun, Lu Zhan's tone became serious.

This is the voice in Mu Yu's impression.

"It's... It's the incompetence of subordinates! ”

The woman who knelt on one knee with her head bowed, rolled her cheeks twice, and the smell of blood was already spreading in her mouth.

At this moment, thinking of the ridiculous night she had with Lu Yun in order to know the news of the land war, Mu Yu didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

When she saw his intimate female companion appearing, in addition to shock, sourness, she also felt a sense of relief in her heart.

It's like running towards a goal every day, working hard, for fear that you won't do enough, not good enough, and won't be able to reach the time.

But suddenly one day, the target himself disappeared.

In the days to come, there will be no need to work hard, no need to run, no need to do useless struggles, but you can be lazy with peace of mind.
