Chapter 16: Farewell

Along the way, following the marks left by Linfeng, Ji Liren finally found Linfeng and them almost ten miles away from the small village. He pretended to sleep all the way with the song, and only cheered up when he saw Ruan Ruan, who had been sleeping peacefully. Tao Ziyi covered the curtain and helped Sui Ge change the dressing in the carriage.

"Is there anyone following you on the road?" Ji Liren vigilantly searched around the area, but did not notice any danger.

Lin Feng said respectfully: "No." Just now we found that there were almost no people in the village, and the only few people who found us leaving had been solved by me and Ziyi. ”

Ji Liren nodded with satisfaction.

By the time the dressing is finished, it will be about the end of the day.

There was silence everywhere, and Tao Ziyi accompanied Ruan Ruan in the car before falling asleep after a while. A bonfire was lit outside the carriage, and he slept on the ground in the wind. They were tired from running all the way tonight, and Ji Liren asked Linfeng to rest first, and he kept vigil on the tree alone.

Sui Ge stepped out of the carriage lightly, and the cold wind of the night made her shiver, and the next second a wide robe was draped over her shoulders.

"It's cold at night." Ji Liren's good-looking eyebrows wrinkled again, "It's almost dawn, you can rest quickly, and you have to hurry tomorrow." ”

With the song, I found out that Ji Liren likes to frown very much. When she didn't know him before, she had heard a lot of his deeds. Everyone said that Ji Liren was a serious general, strong in martial arts, upright, and would never allow his subordinates to be disrespectful to the people, so the soldiers under his command were the most popular among the people. Coupled with the repeated victories and indestructibility of the Northern Army, the Northern Army can be described as the most high-profile tough army in the dynasty. Ji Liren's father-in-law was the former general of Zhenbei, a generation of patriarchs, and the emperor of the dynasty also had to give him three points. Even though the old general died of illness a few years ago, the emperor still let Ji Liren's son inherit his father's throne, rewarded the fief and gave him a tiger talisman, and his status was on par with the prince. Sui Ge thought that he was no different from an ordinary local tyrant and inferior gentry, who knew that in such a materialistic era, this general really had the demeanor of a general.

Seeing that Sui Ge had been looking at him wordlessly, Ji Liren thought that there was danger, and instantly asked solemnly, "What?" What's wrong with this area? ”

Sui Ge blinked a pair of big smart eyes, smiled at the corners of his mouth, and said, "Yes." ”

"Where?" Ji Liren was murderous, lowered his voice, and did not dare to act rashly.

Sui Ge also followed his example and whispered: "There is a general who is too nervous, and it is very inappropriate. ”

Ji Liren was stunned for a while before he realized that Sui Ge was teasing him, and he reluctantly put away his killing intent and shook his head.

Sui Song couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Ji Liren looked at her silently and smiled, and said, "You laughed again." ”

Sui Ge felt that he was much more relaxed, and pointed to the high branch with a smile, and said, "I am not a stone. I want to go there and sit down. ”

Ji Liren was already very accustomed to hugging her tonight, and at this moment, he didn't need to say anything, the beauty automatically withdrew her soft body into his arms. Smelling the fragrance on Sui Ge's body, Ji Liren led her to sit firmly on the tree in the blink of an eye.

"Why don't you sleep?" Ji Liren has always been very concerned about her injury, after all, everything started because of him, if he didn't find Yin Dongsheng to check the corpse, she wouldn't be injured. Ji Liren shook his head, wanting to shake off the unstoppable guilt in his heart.

Sui Ge glanced at him, as if he could read him, and said, "You are so strange, I told you a long time ago, and my injury has nothing to do with you." And I'm not as weak as you think. ”

The two looked at each other, and wordlessly set their gaze back to the mountain top in the distance. The forest is cold and deep at night, and the howls of wild beasts such as wolves can occasionally be heard.

"It's strange that I've talked so much to you." Sui Ge shook her feet gently like a little girl on the tree, "Maybe one day I can be friends with you." ”

Ji Liren raised his eyebrows.

So they're strangers who don't know each other now?

Ji Liren didn't want to ask these boring questions, he glanced at the carriage next to the bonfire and asked, "It's not a way to go on like this." ”

Sui Ge looked in his direction and nodded, "I know, that's why I can't sleep." Nguyen Nguyen, can't follow us. ”

Ji Liren looked at Sui Ge with some surprise in his eyes. His original idea was to let Suige and the others go back first, and let Yin Dongsheng help them arrange a safe place to avoid for a while, and when his side of the matter is over, she will be safe.

"Will you help me?" Ji Liren needs to confirm her thoughts.

Sui Ge looked at him strangely: "Didn't you keep instigating Yin Dongsheng to ask me to help?" ”

Ji Liren laughed, his voice low and magnetic. Ji Liren always has a serious face on weekdays, even if he doesn't treat his subordinates, it is difficult to get any expression from his face. In Ziyi's words, it's just a stone-faced you, and it's in vain that he looks a little handsome.

A sentence came out of the song unexpectedly: "If you go to be a male prostitute, you must be very profitable." Instantly made Ji Liren's laughter fall to the freezing point.

After making up their minds, Sui Ge took advantage of the fire and lay down on a simple desk made of wooden boxes next to the fire, preparing to write a letter to inform Yin Dongsheng of their condition. Unexpectedly, as soon as he wrote a word, he put the pen on the paper with the song.

Ji Liren, who was grinding ink, was confused, "What's wrong?" ”

Sui Ge looked at him expressionlessly and said, "I said, you come and write." ”

Ji Liren didn't react for a while, and frowned again.

Sui Ge gritted his teeth and said, "I can't write your words." ”

Even though Sui Ge's words were very strange, Ji Liren only looked at her twice, did not make fun of her or blame, and obediently picked up the pen and wrote briefly what happened tonight.

“…… Investigate the people behind this cottage, the bandits and gentry, can do such a big deal so arrogantly, there must be an official behind him. In addition, investigate the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, which has dealings with the cottage, and the motive is not pure, and it is probably a family. Ji Liren finished writing the last word and asked Suige, "What other information do you need to tell?" ”

Sui Ge glanced at the carriage, his eyes were full of tenderness, and said: "Help me take care of Ruan Ruan, give her an identity, and don't let outsiders know my relationship with her." After a pause, she added, "My weakness, please help me take care of it, remember." ”

Ji Liren glanced at her deeply, listed every word in the letter as she requested, and then folded it and put it in the envelope.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and some small beasts had already come out to forage for food, and the cicadas were singing and playing a song up and down. The morning dew drenched their hairs, and the air smelled unusually sober.

Sui Ge returned to the carriage, half lying beside Ruan Ruan, brushed the hair from her face behind her head, bent over, and gently imprinted a kiss on her forehead. Ji Liren happened to see this scene when he opened the curtain and wanted to tell her something, and then he silently lowered the curtain again and did not disturb the song again.

By the time Ruan Ruan and the others woke up, it was already hourly. The sun's rays are gentle and soft, and the breeze is gently blowing, which is very comfortable.

Sui Ge wiped Ruan Ruan's face with a handkerchief soaked with stream water, and then helped her change into a clean set of clothes. After fastening the belt, she took Ruan Ruan to sit on the dead wood on the side, looked into her eyes seriously and said to her: "Ruan Ruan, you will follow Sister Ziyi back to Uncle Yin later, Niang Niang and Uncle Ji still have some important things to do, and they will not be able to go back to accompany you later." ”

Ruan Ruan blinked her big watery eyes, looked at Sui Ge, and then looked at Ji Liren not far away, and asked, "Niangniang doesn't want Ruan Ruan?" ”

Sui Ge hugged Ruan Ruan in his arms, so soft, so pitiful, "Fool." Have you forgotten what your mother said? ”

"Nguyen Nguyen didn't forget! Ruan Ruan will always be Ruan Ruan, and Niang Niang will always be Ruan Ruan's mother. ”

"No matter what happens, Niang Niang will never leave you, remember?"

Ruan Ruan nodded heavily and said, "Well, remember." ”

Sui Ge tucked Ruan Ruan's clothes, helped her straighten her combed braids, and said, "Niangniang promised you, at most, it will not be more than a month, and Niangniang will come back." ”

Ruan Ruan touched Sui Ge's cheek with his hand, and said childishly: "Ruan Ruan is waiting for Niangniang." Niangniang should take care of herself and don't be in pain. Ruan Ruan kissed Uncle Yin and bought osmanthus cake with money, waiting for Niangniang to come back to eat at home. ”

Sui Ge smiled and touched the little hand that the small glutinous rice ball put on his face.

Tao Ziyi looked at the mother and daughter who were saying goodbye with emotion on the side, and said, "That's it?" Our Ruan Ruan is really obedient, and the song is really amazing! ”

Ji Liren listened to her words and corrected: "She is not from your family. ”

Tao Ziyi glanced at him. This general is really exquisite!

Ruan Ruan trotted all the way to Ji Liren, and the little man looked up at the tall Ji Liren, and beckoned to him with a slight smile.

Ji Liren immediately half-squatted down and looked at the little man.

"Uncle Ji, I'll hand over my mother to you." Ruan Ruan said solemnly: "Please help me protect my mother." ”

Tao Ziyi and Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh on the side. Sui Song didn't say anything, but the expression on his face was also very pleasant.

Ji Liren looked back at Ruan Ruan and replied seriously: "Definitely." The man's word is out, and the horse is difficult to chase. ”

Ruan Ruan tilted his head: "What are the four horses chasing?" ”

Tao Ziyi and Linfeng burst into laughter instantly.

Ji Liren smiled, touched the villain's head, and said dotingly: "I will definitely protect your mother." ”

Sui Ge said nonchalantly on the side: "I don't need your protection. ”

Seeing this, Ruan Ruan made a whispering gesture to Ji Liren. Ji Liren obediently knelt on one knee and put his ear to Ruan Ruan's mouth.

The villain said mysteriously: "Uncle Ji, I like you." Ruan Nguyen wants a daddy, can you be my daddy? ”

Everyone didn't know what Ruan Ruan said, but they could clearly see that the corners of Ji Liren's mouth had been rising, and he was obviously in a very happy mood.

Ji Liren also followed Ruan's example, and whispered to her: "Uncle Ji will work hard to be your father this trip, thank you for your support." ”

Ruan Ruan covered her mouth with a grin. Then she returned to Suige's side and told her a bunch of instructions like a little adult, nothing more than to let her take care of her body and cherish herself.

Ji Liren also told Tao Ziyi and the others in detail what happened last night, and handed over the letter written in the early morning to her, and asked her to hand it over to Yin Dongsheng in person. Ji Liren instructed Linfeng to send Tao Ziyi and Ruan Ruan back safely first, and then then go to Luoyang to meet them, and Linfeng promised. Before leaving, Tao Ziyi packed all the medicines that he wanted to change with the song one by one, and only after explaining in detail to Ji Liren again could he be relieved.

After everything was ready, Tao Ziyi and the others left first. Before leaving, Ruan Ruan still cried into a little tear, but after all, he still left with purple clothes in his arms. Looking at the carriage moving away, Sui Ge suddenly felt empty in his heart.

After coming here, she and Ruan Ruan have been dependent on each other, and later met Yin Dongsheng and them, Ruan Ruan had a better life, but she has never left Ruan Ruan for so long, and I don't know if Ruan Ruan can adapt. It was only at this moment that she felt empathy for those mothers, who all over the world were so concerned about their children.

Ji Liren asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

Sui Song's eyes were a little moist, but after all, he didn't let his feelings overflow, and after taking a deep breath, he began to stabilize his emotions. She said firmly to Ji Liren: "Let's go." Solve the case early, let Yin Dongsheng go to the emperor to sue the emperor as soon as possible, and let the self-righteous Yuwang pig be broken into ten thousand pieces. ”

Ji Liren was speechless.

She really hated that King Yu.
