Chapter 422: Reason
The wild goat meat is really delicious and abnormal, the taste is still second, the effect of the heat is extremely significant, after the two of them ate a few pieces of fragrant mutton, their bodies were already warm, although the haggis soup simmering on a low fire still needs a long time to drink, but Song Nan and Liu Yuerong already feel very satisfied.
Liu Yuerong's cheeks were also flushed, and fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose.
"What does the young lady think? Still chills? Song Nan asked with a smile.
"It's much better, it's warm in the chest and abdomen, thank you very much."
"That's good, eat enough and sleep, last night was too cold, didn't sleep well, although it is daytime, but the heavy snow covers the mountains and there is nowhere to go, fortunately, we have enough mutton to eat for several days, there is fire, water and caves, we can only eat, sleep and eat."
Liu Yuerong smiled and said: "It's really ugly, what does it mean to sleep and eat, eat and sleep, that doesn't happen...... Have you become a pig? ”
Song Nan laughed and said: "What's wrong with being a pig, when did you ever see a pig have troubles?" Sometimes it is much more comfortable to be a carefree pig who eats and sleeps than to be a human being, and the only thing you need to worry about is not to eat yourself too strong, otherwise you will be the first to be knifed. ”
Liu Yuerong glanced at Song Nan, Song Nan's heart suddenly had an inexplicable throbbing, she didn't think that Liu Yuerong looked like before, and she couldn't compare with those at home, but Liu Yuerong had her own taste, and her delicate facial features formed a tasteful face, especially at this moment, Song Nan suddenly felt that she was so beautiful.
Liu Yuerong obviously saw Song Nan's gaze, and hurriedly turned her head and said, "Aren't you going to sleep?" I'll clean up the bamboo tube, and you go to sleep on the straw. ”
Song Nan said: "Don't you sleep together?" After speaking, I felt that this sentence was a little sick.
Liu Yuerong blushed and said, "No need to ...... I was well fed and warm, and I didn't want to sleep yet. ”
Song Nan yawned and sat on the straw bunk, stretched his waist and said, "Then I'm going to sleep, I didn't sleep for half a night last night, and it took me a lot of strength to deal with this sheep; If you are tired, you can rest, and you don't need to rush to tidy up those things. ”
Liu Yuerong snorted, picked up a bundle of long grass from a corner, and hung it at the entrance of the cave, Song Nan looked at Liu Yuerong busy with his head on the pillow with his hand, and asked with a smile: "What is that?" ”
Liu Yuerong pursed her lips and said: "When you went out to help me find medicine in the morning, I was bored here alone, so I made a straw curtain, weren't you very cold last night?" I think it's because of the cold wind at the entrance of the cave, and it would be much better to hang this straw curtain. ”
Song Nan raised his big finger and praised: "It's really smart, I just didn't think about it, don't say it, as soon as this curtain is hung up, it will be much warmer immediately; Outside there is heavy snow, the bonfire inside is warm and fragrant with mutton, and there are warm beds, not like a cave in distress, but like a cave...... Ahem...... Say no more, sleep. ”
Song Nan flattened his body, lay down on the hay and closed his eyes, and fell asleep after a while; Liu Yuerong stood at the entrance of the cave and was stunned, Song Nan almost said the word cave just now, she listened to it in her ears, although she knew that Song Nan liked to joke with words, but she was not annoyed at all, she sat down slowly, quietly held her cheeks and pondered, Song Nan in her sleep occasionally turned over and made a dream sound, Liu Yuerong suddenly thought a little shyly: If you can live here without a man for the rest of your life, away from the troubles of the world, it may not be a pleasure.
"What are you thinking, this person is a court official, an enemy of his brothers, and he is the sister of a thief, how could that happen."
……
The terrible wolf howl woke Song Nan from his dream, and Song Nan got up and found Liu Yuerong nervously snuggling up to him, holding a short knife in her hand and looking at the grass curtain at the entrance of the cave; Song Nan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Liu Yuerong's face turned pale and said, "There are wolves outside, I'm afraid." ”
Song Nan hurriedly got up, took the short knife and slowly walked to the grass curtain and gently lifted a corner, it was already dark outside, and the wolf howls in the valley under the cliff came and went, as if they had found some prey, but it was not near the cave. ”
Liu Yuerong was a little settled in her heart, but after Song Nan sat down, she still unconsciously leaned towards Song Nan's side, and Song Nan said, "How long have I been sleeping?" ”
Liu Yuerong said: "It's already midnight. ”
Song Nan said: "I slept soundly this night, the snow outside has stopped, we can find a way to get out of here tomorrow." ”
Liu Yuerong was stunned and nodded slowly, and after a while, she suddenly asked softly, "Who is the little county lord?" Who is Su'er? ”
Song Nan was stunned and said, "How do you know about them?" ”
"You said the dream talk about their names."
Song Nan began to sweat on his body, and when he woke up just now, he was dreaming of going home with the little county lord Dai Su'er Hu Tianhudi, but he didn't expect to say his dream words, and some private teasing words I don't know if Liu Yuerong heard them, which is embarrassing.
"Are they from your house?" Liu Yuerong asked softly.
Song Nan coughed twice to hide his embarrassment and said: "The little county lord is my wife, and Dai Su'er is my concubine, I must have thought of them in my dream." ”
Liu Yuerong sighed and said, "They must be very beautiful." ”
Song Nan said: "Yes." ”
Liu Yuerong was silent for a long time and said, "Don't worry, I will let you leave tomorrow and let you go back to their side." ”
Song Nan said: "Thank you." ”
Liu Yuerong said: "You have always wanted to ask me why I took you from the dungeon to the mountains, and I can tell you the answer now." ”
Song Nan smiled and said, "Listen up." ”
Liu Yuerong looked at the cave wall and paused for a moment and said: "I know that you are a senior official of the imperial court and the head of the officers and soldiers, if you are taken by your brother as a hostage, the officers and soldiers will never be able to capture the valley." ”
Song Nan frowned and said in surprise: "I heard you right, do you want the valley to be breached, do you want your brothers to fail?" ”
Liu Yuerong turned her head to look directly at Song Nan and said: "You heard it right, that's what I thought, when my brothers did something, I didn't have any objection or approval, because I don't think the government is a good person, and my fathers and fellow villagers don't have a way to live." But later, my brother's behavior was really intolerable, they didn't want their parents and fellow villagers to have a way to live, they were just for their own enjoyment, they were more vicious and cruel than the government, along the way I saw the destruction of the family, the separation of wives, and the scorched earth all over the rubble, I realized that I had harmed a lot of people with my brother and them. ”
Liu Yuerong's white nose was agitated, and she was extremely excited, and continued: "At the beginning, I deliberately stayed in Wen'an County and didn't leave, just to help my brothers, I am the sister of the rebel thief, the imperial army knows that I will take me in Wen'an, and I can take the opportunity to assassinate the commander of the imperial court, so that my brothers can have enough time to march to the south." ”
"That's why when I arrived in Wen'an, you deliberately gave porridge in a high-profile manner, and then declared yourself to let me catch you?"
"Yes, you came with the soldiers and horses of the court, I think you are the commander of the soldiers and horses of the court, although you were not at that time, but I think you are; I thought at the time, if you escort me to Beijing, I will escape halfway, and if you have any evil intentions to keep me by your side, then it will be exactly what I want, and I will have a chance to kill you. ”
Song Nan nodded and said, "Sure enough." ”
Liu Yuerong said: "Have you noticed? ”
Song Nan smiled and said: "You are not perfect enough, who will expose the identity of the sister of the thief?" Obviously, you wanted to take the initiative to be arrested, and then you followed my soldiers and horses all the way, and you were too calm and not worried about your situation at all, and there are many people with strong martial arts around me, and they can also see that you are not a weak woman who is powerless. I didn't want to shackle you, but I shackled you to make you feel safe, so you would think I was defenseless against you. ”
Liu Yuerong was stunned, sighed and said, "You are so terrible, it turns out that everything is in your hands." ”
Song Nan shook his head and said: "I just want to know what your purpose is, and I am also hesitating what to do with you, on the night of Yizhou, when you assassinated me, I stopped halfway, and since then I have known that you are different from your brother, you are sensible." ”
Liu Yuerong sighed lightly: "That's because, I followed your soldiers and horses all the way from Xin'an to Yizhou, saw so many human tragedies, listened to the words of the people cursing my brother, and watched your officers and soldiers try their best to save the people and protect the people, I know that my brother and they have committed a heinous crime this time; I don't want to kill you, I just don't want to help you do it. ”
Song Nan reached over, patted Liu Yuerong's shoulder lightly and said: "You are doing the right thing, people can not extinguish the goodwill in their hearts at any time, eliminating evil is good, not condoning evil is also good, you are a kind person." ”
Liu Yuerong shook her head and said, "I'm not a good person, because my brothers are wicked people." ”
Song Nan said: "You are you, they are them." ”
Liu Yuerong sighed and said: "The reason why I brought you out is to let my brother and them completely fail, end this nightmare, and don't let my brother and them do anything wrong." ”
Song Nan nodded and said, "I understand, you are a good woman who understands righteousness." But why don't you just let me go? ”
Liu Yuerong lowered her head and said slowly: "After all, they are my elder brothers, once the valley is defeated, they will also be captured or hunted down by the imperial court, the reason why I don't let you go is that I want to exchange you with the imperial court, let them let go of my brothers, I can't let them be beheaded by the imperial court, they are my elder brothers, my own brothers." ”
Song Nan was silent for a long time and said: "It's understandable, I can understand." ”
