Jiangzhou, the seat of Ba County.

The Great Qian Empire implemented county administration, and the prefecture belonged to the highest power center of the county, which was equivalent to the largest county.

Lingfeng inquired all the way, and finally arrived in Jiangzhou.

The city of Jiangzhou is majestic, rarely seen in the world's spiritual wind, and there is a sense of humility in psychology.

At the gate of the city, he was in trouble and had no identity guide.

The city gate official was a careful and cautious person, and when he asked that it was Li Wenfeng's brother, he personally 'escorted' him to the Li Mansion.

It turned out that Lingfeng's elder brother was already the Jiangzhou Left Protector, second only to the real power military attache of the Jiangzhou County Lieutenant.

The county lieutenant of Ba County and Jiangzhou is the supreme military commander, and the left and right guards are equivalent to the deputy commanders.

In front of the Li Mansion, Lingfeng looked up at the word 'Li Mansion' on the black plaque and thought thoughtfully.

The tall gate and stone steps, four mighty guards in armor and swords.

Lingfeng's mind has caused an impact, Brother Bai Ding back then was already a mighty general, what would it be like now?

The gate officer walked up the stairs and humbly reported to the gatekeepers.

The guards at the gate looked at the spirit wind, and one of them entered.

Half a stick of incense passed, and Lingfeng heard the sound of chaotic footsteps coming from the door of the mansion.

Soon, six people came out of the door.

The first was the guard who entered the house to report, and as soon as he left the door, he stepped out of the way, revealing an old woman behind him.

The old woman has mottled silver hair, wears a somewhat untidy dress, has a kind round face, and has many deep wrinkles between her eyebrows, which is full of the vicissitudes of time.

"Erlang, Erlang."

As soon as the old woman saw the spiritual wind under the steps, she immediately lost her voice and shouted, and rushed down the stone steps with her steps.

"Mother." Lingfeng called sadly, and he moved his body to support the mother who rushed to him.

The four people behind the old woman were all women, and they all screamed and chased after the old woman when they saw her pounce.

The guards also rushed forward, and there was a lot of chaos in front of the house.

Lingfeng supported his mother and was soon surrounded into the door.

The house was even more busy, and many men and women came out, looking at Lingfeng curiously.

Lingfeng's mother looked excited, happily hugged Lingfeng's right arm, and some people affectionately shouted 'Second Master is good'.

Lingfeng was in a mixed mood and nodded casually.

Walking through the wall, the hallway, and entering the spacious and elegant hall can be quiet.

Mother sat Lingfeng down and looked at Lingfeng lovingly.

Lingfeng also looked at his mother sentimentally, he hadn't seen her for nearly ten years, and her mother was much older.

"Erlang, you're back, my mother thought I'd never see you again." The mother looked at it for a moment, choking back to tears.

"Mother, Lingfeng is not filial, and it took so long to come back." Lingfeng's nose was sour and tearful.

"Erlang, will you go back this time?" The mother sat down to wipe away her tears and asked.

"Mother, the child can only come back for two months this time, and he has to go back after two months, but please rest assured, I can come back to see you in the future." Reiwind replied gently.

Mother nodded and said bitterly: "Erlang, since my mother and your brother came to Jiangzhou, we have sent people to Tianjianzhuang to see you three times, but Tianjianzhuang will not let you see you.

Your brother said that Tianjian Village has an order from the emperor to confer holy gold, and the princes and ministers do not dare to make trouble there.

Your brother has no way to inquire about your situation, and my mother feels uncomfortable. ”

Lingfeng said gently: "The rules of Tianjian Village are strict, and the child is also homesick, but now it is much better, and the child is qualified to come back to visit relatives." ”

The mother nodded and said, "That's good, the boy is ambitious in all directions, and my mother doesn't ask you to be by your side often, and you can be content if you see each other a few times a year." ”

Lingfeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Mother, isn't the eldest brother often at home?" ”

Mother nodded and said, "Your eldest brother led troops to suppress bandits, and often went out on expeditions, so he has been able to stay at home for half of his time in the past few years, and now he lives in Beppu." ”

Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, and said, "Living in Beppu, does the eldest brother have a lot of places to live in Jiangzhou?" ”

The mother raised her hand, and the women standing in the hall immediately walked out silently.

There were only two mothers and sons in the hall, and the mother whispered: "Your eldest brother married the second daughter of the county guard of Jiangzhou, and your sister-in-law is a young lady of the official family, and her temperament and temperament are not in harmony with her mother. ”

Lingfeng frowned and said, "Mother, doesn't sister-in-law respect you?" ”

"No, your sister-in-law respects me, it's my mother who is used to the previous life, and I'm not used to being with your sister-in-law, so it's better to live in each other." Mother waved her hand to explain.

Lingfeng nodded and asked, "Mother, where is my sister?" She's married. ”

The mother's expression was slightly gloomy, and she nodded: "I am married, I am married to the son of Anhan County, and I have a good life." ”

Lingfeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Mother, did my sister displease you?" ”

The mother shook her head and said: "It's nothing, your sister was married to a rich family, and then your eldest brother came to Jiangzhou to be an official, and your sister came to Jiangzhou, and Anhan County ordered the matchmaker to propose marriage, and your sister married to Anhan County." ”

Lingfeng listened to it silently, his mother was displeased with his sister's dislike and love, and he couldn't comment on right or wrong.

The mother said again: "Erlang, you asked someone to send a thousand taels of gold, how did you get that gold?" ”

Lingfeng was stunned, he remembered that it was not a thousand taels, could it be that Zhou Yan'er added gold?

"Heavenly Sword Village rewards children." Reikaze replied casually.

"What did you do? How much can I get for it? Mother asked in surprise.

"Mother, the secret of Tianjian Village, the child can't tell it." The spirit wind prevaricated.

His mentality is practice-oriented, and he is unwilling to pick medicine for gold and rush.

Mother nodded and said, "Erlang, the mother gave your brother and sister one hundred taels each of the gold you sent back."

Later, your brother borrowed another 500 taels of gold for the sake of his future in the army, and your brother used the gold to get through to high-ranking officials, encourage soldiers and soldiers, and make meritorious contributions to the bandits.

After the military merit was promoted, he was valued by the county guard and was promoted to the left guard, and your brother's nobility was due to you. ”

Lingfeng said gently: "My brother has been interested in martial arts since he was a child, and he likes to read military books and war strategies. ”

The mother shook her head and sighed, "Your brother is noble, but the gold is squandered. ”

Lingfeng smiled and said, "Mother, it's a good thing for my brother to be an official, it's useless for a child to ask for gold." ”

The mother looked at Lingfeng lovingly and said, "My mother has two hundred taels of gold in her hand, and I look forward to your coming back to start a family." ”

Lingfeng's nose was sour, and he said sadly: "Mother, it's useless for a child to ask for gold, the gold is for you, you can use it as you like." ”

Mother said gently: "Erlang, my mother has been indebted to you since I was a child, your brother and sister are both blessed and noble, my mother is old, and my only wish is to be able to see you start a family and start a business." ”

"Mother, the child is already blessed and noble, the child's home is in Tianjianzhuang, Tianjianzhuang has given the child happiness, don't think about it." Lingfeng was busy with a sincere explanation.

The mother looked at Lingfeng lovingly, and said: "Erlang, the beautiful fairy of the girl who gave the mother gold, she said that her surname is Zhou, and she has been here four times to report safety, and my mother is relieved, she is your wife in Tianjian Village." ”

Lingfeng hurriedly said: "No, that's the child's Senior Sister Zhou." ”

The mother was surprised and surprised: "It's not your wife's room, how can she bow down to me and call me mother." ”

"What? She came to bow down to you and call her mother? Lingfeng glared in surprise and lost his voice in disbelief.

"yes, she said she was your fiancée." Mother looked at Reifeng and replied in confusion.

Lingfeng was stunned, his heart was beating in a panic, Zhou Yan'er came to see her mother, and she actually admitted that she was his fiancée?

What does Zhou Yan'er mean? Didn't she reject his favors?

After a while, he asked, "Mother, when did she say that she was my fiancée?" ”

"The second time I came, my mother came to Jiangzhou for a few months, that Miss Zhou quietly entered the house, and accompanied me for five days, and the last time, she also brought a girl to take care of me." Mother looked at Lingfeng and replied suspiciously.

Lingfeng nodded, wondering what Zhou Yan'er meant? Could it be to solve the marriage of the elders of the family?

"Mother, Miss Zhou is my fiancée." Lingfeng can't figure it out, can't explain it, admit it for the time being.

"That's good, my mother likes that Miss Zhou." Mother smiled with relief.

Lingfeng smiled bitterly in his heart, and said, "Mother, this mansion is very big." ”

"It's very big, the front yard and front hall of the mansion and five guest rooms, the back house has a garden, a small building and a study, the original owner of the court official, was convicted of raiding the house, the mansion official sold it for many years, and your brother only bought it for twenty taels of gold." Mother said happily that the happy mansion had saved a lot of money.

Lingfeng nodded, suddenly remembered something again, and asked, "Mother, Senior Sister Zhou entrusted a girl for you to take care of?" ”

The mother was stunned and said, "When the girl came, her face was yellow, hungry and thin, she had a severe cough, her clothes were ragged, she was a beggar who was seriously ill, and Miss Zhou only entrusted me to take care of her." ”

Lingfeng nodded, maybe it was a good deed done by Zhou Yan'er during her travels.

The mother said: "The mother accepted the girl, and after two months, the girl recovered from her illness, and the official family taboo collected the population of unknown origin, and the mother couldn't ask her original origin, so she had to be naturalized as a maid in the Li Mansion."

The girl said that she was Miss Zhou's concubine, and she must be naturalized by Miss Zhou's husband's family, and her mother could only follow her wishes and be naturalized under your name. ”

Lingfeng was unexpected, he knew that once the people of unknown origin were investigated, the government would severely punish them according to the crime of abduction.

Not only will people of unknown origin be arrested and sold, but collectors will also be imprisoned and confiscated.

"This girl's name is Yuhe, she is a scheming girl, and her background must be extraordinary." Lingfeng listened to her mother again.

He was stunned for a moment, and said casually: "Extraordinary origin? ”

Mother said: "Yuhe's original appearance is beautiful, she is small, but the scheming is deep, living in the house to admit that she is your concubine, the concubine to meet your sister-in-law, and she can also write, the mother heard that the origin of Yuhe, is likely to be the daughter of the official eunuch in distress, only the official eunuch knows how to count and read. ”

Lingfeng sighed, and said indifferently: "She is Miss Zhou's person, and the child will go back and inform Miss Zhou." ”

The mother said, "You go back and ask Miss Zhou to take Yuhe away, otherwise your brother will be difficult." ”

Lingfeng looked at his mother in a daze.

Mother said: "Mother heard from your sister-in-law that the fourth son of Lord Hu of Jiangzhou County has taken a fancy to Yuhe and has been begging your brother for it.

Your brother politely refused because Yuhe was a concubine under your name, but the fourth prince was a well-known martial overlord, and the woman he was worried about would not let go easily. ”

Ling Feng's brows furrowed, and he felt an inexplicable annoyance in his heart.

Although Yuhe is a stranger to him, the official has a long temper.

The power of the Spirit Wind is extraordinary, and mortals are weak in his eyes.

The weak arrogantly provoke the strong, and the mentality of the spirit wind cannot be comfortable.
