Chapter 494: Farewell
"Oh?"
There was no surprise with the gentle look.
"Let's talk about it specifically."
"I guess she's already sent the others on her way to the north, and she's staying in the capital just to get our attention. The subordinates believed that the defense line along the way should be strengthened and the people should be found. ”
Wen Tu's fingers rubbed back and forth against the hilt of the sword.
His gaze stretched out from the window to the dark sky, and he seemed a little absent-minded.
"Your Excellency?"
"I know."
He said leisurely.
"Just do as you say, after this time, you and those scarlet people can retire from the rivers and lakes, or you can live according to the identity I arranged for you before, and you don't have to follow me anymore."
"Your Excellency?"
Beishui shook his head.
"My life was given by adults back then, and now it is given back to adults, I will not leave!"
When he said this, Wen Tu didn't persuade him any more, a person who didn't even care about his own life anymore, it was unrealistic to say how much he cared about the safety of others.
"Then let's go, find someone."
"Yes, sir!"
Just after the two of them quietly left the inn, Shangguan Li, who had basically visited all the places where there were acquaintances in the capital, went to the Criminal Department.
"County ...... Princess Jing'an. ”
Gao Yong looked quite happy when he saw her.
Shangguan Li waved his hand.
"I'm not used to Lord Gao suddenly being so polite, so it's the same as before."
"The princess is a temperamental, but the etiquette system of the court cannot be abolished."
What he said was serious, and Shangguan Li didn't want to refute it. He smiled faintly.
"Actually, I came this time to see Yu'er, is he still in the Criminal Department?"
"I guess the princess is going to come to visit the little boy in the next few days, come with me."
When Gao Yong saw Shangguan Li, there was no one left and right, and now it is convenient.
I saw him go around the back of a standing cabinet, and gently wiped the vase on the standing cabinet, accompanied by a "click" sound, and a passage appeared on the wall.
Follow the passage and go inside, gradually changing from dark to light.
Shangguan Li heard it clearly, and there was a faint sound of practice coming from inside.
Walking out of the passage completely, the sky light poured in, accompanied by the sound of dripping rain, a little boy stood under the eaves, holding a wooden sword and practicing profusely.
"Uncle Gao, Yu'er doesn't need to eat delicious food, if you are really afraid that I will be bored, why don't you send me some medical books, I can learn more skills, and I can help my mother as soon as possible."
Hearing the movement behind him, Shangguan Yu said without looking back.
Shangguan Li's heart was warm, and his eyes were a little sour, but there was a bright smile on his face.
"Really? If Yu'er is so busy, the mother will come back next time. ”
"Mother?!"
When Shangguan Li said the first word, the little boy turned his head suddenly.
By the time she finished speaking, Shangguan Yu had already thrown the wooden sword and rushed into her arms.
"Mother, you finally came to see me."
Shangguan Li hugged him tightly.
This is the first warmth she has had since she came into this world.
Gao Yong on the side wiped the corners of his eyes, and then quickly retreated, not disturbing the scene of the reunion of mother and son.
"Come, let me see how many months we have had, where has there been any changes?"
Although Shangguan Yu was a little reluctant to get out of her arms, when he heard this, he obediently let go of the hand that was tugging at her sleeve.
He took a step back and smiled so hard that it warmed his heart.
After a few months, the dumplings have grown a lot taller and stronger.
After the two reunited for half an hour, Shangguan Li's expression suddenly became serious.
"Yu'er, my mother has something to tell you."
The mother-in-law who was smiling just now suddenly changed her face, although Shangguan Yu was a little scared, but after nearly a year of training, he was no longer the little milk bag that would only hold his mother's sleeve and cry before.
There was a hint of fortitude on the little face.
"Mother, tell you."
Tuanzi is so sensible, Shangguan Li touched his head with some distress and said slowly.
"My mother is going to do a very dangerous thing now, and she may not even be able to come back."
Shangguan Yu's face suddenly turned pale.
"Mother's ......"
"Although it is dangerous, my mother must go, otherwise my mother may regret it for the rest of her life. After thinking about it for a long time, my mother decided to tell you about it, although you are still young, but you are smart and wise, and these things will be known sooner or later, so my mother doesn't want to hide it from you. ”
Shangguan Li reached out to wipe away the tears oozing from the corners of Xiao Tuanzi's eyes.
"Don't be afraid, although it is dangerous, my mother is not the one who is slaughtered. Are you willing to believe in your mother? ”
"Hmm...... Well! ”
Shangguan Yu sobbed violently, then nodded heavily.
"Yu'er believes in her mother, she will definitely be able to come back safely, since it is something that must be done, Yu'er will definitely not stop her mother, because that must be what her mother wants to do."
Shangguan Li smiled slightly,
"Okay, then Yu'er is waiting for me here, and I will definitely come back to pick you up."
With that, she stood up.
"Mother!"
A small hand suddenly took hold of her.
"You bring this."
Seeing Shangguan Li stop, Shangguan Yu hurriedly took off the thing hanging around his neck.
It was a thin and soft red string with a crystal clear, quite beautiful bead strung on it.
Shangguan Li knew this bead, she picked it up from the crystal palace in Arova, and later gave it to the ball.
"Since Yu'er has had this, everything has been going well. It must be the mother who is protecting Yu'er behind her back, and now Yu'er is giving it to her mother, and Yu'er must also protect her mother! ”
Shangguan Li's eyes were slightly hot, and he took the necklace and put it around his neck.
"Okay, then our Yu'er must protect her mother well."
When she came out of the secret room, Gao Yong was waiting for her.
"Princess, is the border not optimistic?"
Facing Gao Yong's sincere eyes, she nodded quite frankly.
"The situation is critical now, and I don't have that much time to explain to you one by one......"
"I know."
Knowing that she was in a hurry, Gao Yong's speech was fast.
"County Lord, don't worry, I will definitely take care of the little boy."
Shangguan Li paused, and then put the hooded raincoat on his body.
"Thank you."
After saying that, he rushed into the rain.
She didn't go back to the Silent Hall, nor did she go anywhere in the city, but turned around and galloped out of the city.
Horses were already prepared at the gates of the city, and she recognized them as one of Tianquan's men.
As he handed the reins, he suddenly whispered.
"Please, princess, you must bring the prince back safely."
Shangguan Li turned over and got on the horse, splashing water and splashing.
"Got it, drive-"
The best horse neighed, and as he lifted the rain curtain and followed the official road, a bolt of lightning rushed out.
