The car was rolling, walking dust, Chu Mubai and Shao Ziqing walked side by side, all of them standing tall and pine.

Shao Ziqing turned his head to look at Chu Mubai: "Brother Mubai is so haggard, dusty, it can be seen that the battle is hard. ”

Chu Mubai gave his hand to Shao Ziqing indifferently: "Shao Xiang is polite, just call him Mubai." ”

"I heard that the queen mother mentioned Brother Mu Bai before, and she was indeed two years older than Ziqing, so she called Brother Mu Bai high."

Chu Mubai's hand holding the reins tightened: "Are Shao Xiang and the queen very familiar with each other?" ”

Shao Ziqing had a strong smile in his eyes, looked at the side without saying a word, a piece of wood-like step dust, and said with a smile: "The queen mother is occasionally infected with the cold, Ziqing has been ordered by the emperor to take care of the queen mother for a few days, so they are familiar with each other." ”

Chu Mubai was silent for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "She was very sick at that time?" ”

Shao Ziqing nodded: "At that time, there were some accidents, the queen couldn't stand it, and she was drenched in ice and rain, so the high fever did not go away for several days." It was inconvenient for the emperor to leave the palace, so he entrusted it to Ziqing. ”

Chu Mubai smiled bitterly, and then bowed his hand to Shao Ziqing deeply: "Thank you Shao for the photos." ”

Shao Ziqing smiled warmly and whispered in front of him: "She is your sister-in-law and Ziqing's confidant, so Brother Mu Bai doesn't have to thank him." ”

Chu Mubai's hand holding the reins of the horse tighter, his knuckles were white, and he pursed his lips: "My righteous brother is incompetent, she was left alone and had no one to rely on, and she has been gone for five years, and there is no news, so don't mention it." ”

"Brother Mu Bai's words are wrong, the queen mother once told Ziqing that she regrets that she is not a man, she can go to the border, be ambitious to eat Hulu meat, laugh and drink the blood of the Huns, and avenge her father. only affected Brother Mu Bai, fought a hundred battles in the yellow sand on her behalf, suffered like a knife and cold wind, and died nine times in her life. Brother Mu Bai intersected with his life, and the queen mother was only grateful to Brother Mu Bai, so how could she be incompetent? ”

Chu Mu's throat apples rolled, and it seemed that it was a little difficult to speak: "Is that really what she said?" ”

Shao Ziqing smiled heartily: "Although Ziqing occasionally hangs a little girl, but no one has ever questioned that there are untruths." ”

Chu Mubai smiled apologetically: "Mu Bai just kept feeling guilty and blaming himself, and he was overjoyed when he heard Shao Xiang's words." ”

"Brother Mu Bai really has a true temperament, he can know such a young hero, Ziqing is fortunate to have three lives."

Chu Mubai humbly arched his hand: "Shao Xiang is famous all over the world, Mu Bai has heard of it for a long time, and he can see it today, and his name is well deserved." ”

Buchen on the side finally became impatient: "The two of you are touting each other, is there any end?" ”

Shao Ziqing pouted at him: "Drink a few cups together for a while, Ziqing will be the east, and wash the dust for Brother Mu Bai, will you come?" ”

Buchen frowned: "Don't come!" ”

"It's still like a piece of dirt, if there is really a master, there will be a kind of minion."

Buchen turned his head and glanced at him, without respect: "Then how can my master have a courtier like you?" ”

Shao Ziqing smacked his mouth, touched his chin, looked up at the sedan chair of Mo Guhan and Chu Yuehua in front of him, and sighed meaningfully: "When you return to the palace, you will know, your master, now it is not what it used to be." ”

Bu Chen also glanced at the man who was sitting in a precarious position, like the master of an iceberg, and snorted coldly without speaking.

The emperor's guard of honor soon arrived at the Maple Forest. The dead leaves have fallen, the forest is full of sorrow, and the red leaves are no longer gorgeous and like fire.

The guards and Si Le stayed outside the maple forest, and Mo Guhan and his party entered the maple forest.

Some guards have already come to do it in advance, and they have prepared all the materials needed for the memorial service.

Mo Guhan took the lead in respectfully burning three incense sticks in front of the grave, making a memorial with hot wine, burning the good news, silent for a moment, and then turned around and retreated with Shao Ziqing, Buchen and others, leaving Yuehua and Chu Mubai in the cemetery, and said coldly: "There is only time for one stick of incense." ”

Yuehua glanced at Mo Guhan gratefully, then turned her head to look at her parents' mausoleum, and stopped talking.

Mo Guhan seemed to understand her thoughts, and then continued: "The grace of your parents is as great as the sky, even if you are the queen now, you are also a child, and you will kowtow a few more times on behalf of me." ”

The idle miscellaneous people all avoided it, and Yuehua got the grace permission, so it was difficult to hold back the excitement in her heart, turned around and knelt down in front of her parents' mausoleum, kowtowed respectfully a few times, and when she raised her head, tears swelled, and it was difficult to suppress herself.

"Daddy, Auntie, Brother Mu Bai is back, he has lived up to your expectations, recovered all the lost land in Chang'an, expelled the Xiliang people for hundreds of miles, and won a great victory! Dad, Brother Mubai has avenged you! ”

Chu Mubai knelt behind Yuehua, stepped forward with two steps on his knees, stretched out his rough big hand, rubbed the tombstone, his Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was full of desperately suppressed tremors: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, Mu Bai is not filial, he has failed to fulfill his filial piety in front of the tomb of your second elder in five years, and he has failed to fulfill his responsibility as a brother-in-law, Mu Bai is guilty!" ”

Yuehua had already had a sour nose, tears were dripping, and she couldn't cry silently, if it weren't for the disparity in identity now, I am afraid that she would have thrown herself into Chu Mubai's arms and cried heartily.

Five years of heart and mind, five years of heart-to-heart ties, five years of melancholy, five years of grievances and suffering, five years of strong pretending to be indifferent, at this moment, seeing the relatives who depend on each other, finally couldn't help it, collapsed violently, and fell apart on the ground.

"Brother Mu Bai," Yuehua's red lips moved, and a thousand words were all choked in her heart, and she only called out, and then she didn't know where to start, and choked up: "Yuehua misses you so much." ”

Chu Mubai clenched the fist in his sleeve tightly, and the green tendons were faintly visible on his forehead, and he couldn't bear it: "I'm sorry, I'm late." ”

"The border is bitterly cold, and my brother Dai Yuehua suffers."

Chu Mubai pulled the corners of his lips with difficulty: "I am your brother, and I am the righteous son of my parents, the grace of nurturing and teaching, the sky is high and the sea is deep." It is Chu Mubai's responsibility to avenge his father-in-law, how can he suffer on his behalf? It's just that you were left alone, helpless, and gone for several years, and I don't know how many hardships you have suffered over the years. Every time I think about it, my heart is like frying. ”

Yuehua was blinded with tears, and carefully traced Chu Mubai's eyebrows: "Compared with the dangers and hardships suffered by Brother Mubai, Yuehuayi came to reach out for food to open her mouth, and enjoy too peace, a little suffering, what is it?" ”

"Bu Chen...... He said that you are not doing well in the Changle Hou Mansion. ”

Yuehua shook her head and smiled: "Brother is worried, Yuehua is now the queen and the queen, boundless glory, power and wealth, what is not satisfied?" ”

Chu Mubai punched hard, slammed on the stone base of the tombstone, lowered his head, and never dared to look at Yuehua: "Really? ”

Yuehua nodded, her face radiant and slightly shy: "The emperor is very good to me, although my brother is relaxed." ”

Chu Mubai was stunned for a long time, then nodded and said in a low voice: "That's good!" ”

The two looked at each other with tears in their eyes for a while, silent. Chu Mubai looked away in a panic: "I'm relieved." ”

"How has my brother been doing in the past few years?"

"I'm ashamed, if you hadn't taken the risk to recommend me in front of the emperor, my brother would still be just a firehead army with a nest of pockets, and he wouldn't even have a chance to go to the battlefield."

"General Li collaborated with the enemy and treason, and naturally the hot-blooded sons of the generals were regarded as a thorn in the side, and they couldn't get rid of it quickly. The elder brother endured humiliation and burden, and it was even harder than killing the enemy on the battlefield. ”

Yuehua groaned slightly, raised her head again and whispered: "I also want to tell my brother, now that you are a Taiping general, the emperor will give you 30,000 military power, you must know that above the court, the waves and clouds are treacherous, and I am deceitful, no more than the army is full of hot-blooded men, my brother should be careful." ”

Chu Mubai gradually retracted the complicated expression on his face, and nodded: "I naturally save it, but in fact, the army is different from the past. ”

Yuehua glanced around, lowered his head, and whispered in Chu Mubai's ear: "Especially Yuehua's second uncle, this time the emperor took the opportunity to divide his military power, I am afraid that I will offend him a lot, so be careful." Yuehua listened to the meaning of the Empress Dowager's words, she wanted to win over you and marry the daughter of her second uncle's mansion to you. Although Yuehua politely refused, you must be fully prepared and skillfully maneuver, not only to avoid a head-on conflict with the Chang family as much as possible, but also not to arouse the emperor's suspicion. ”

Chu Mubai was stunned, and he couldn't understand the intricate relationship for a while, he had been at the border for a long time, and his mind was pure, where did he know the treacherousness?

Yue Huafu said worriedly: "If Brother Mu Bai has any doubts in his heart, you can ask Shao Xiang, he is the emperor's person, and he can see the situation in the court the most seriously, and with a little allocation, he will benefit immensely." ”

Chu Mubai nodded and smiled bitterly: "Suddenly there is a feeling of 'one day in the mountains, and several years in the world'." ”

"When it's so complicated, but I pushed my brother to the forefront without saying anything, and Yuehua doesn't know if it's right or wrong?"

Chu Mubai raised his hand like five years ago, wanting to rub Yuehua's hair, but his hand froze in midair, and the person in front of him was no longer the young little girl back then, but after a country.

He smiled with satisfaction: "Silly girl, Brother Mubai is very fortunate to have the ability to stand by your side and protect you." My brother will try to make himself strong and let you have something to rely on. ”

At that moment, Yuehua felt that she was no longer lonely, and finally had hope and support.

Perhaps, as Mama Wei said, if you don't come to Jitai, everything will be fine.
