Time is like an arrow, and it has been thirteen years in a flash.

However, it is said that there is a big mountain in Jindi, called Beiyue Mountain.

Although the mountain is not very high, it stretches for dozens of miles, and the mountains are full of trees, and it is very dense.

In the afternoon of this day, in the depths of the mountain, in an open field, two children were playing.

The older one was a girl, who looked to be seven or eight years old, and very handsome.

The youngest was a boy, about five or six years old, and he was also very handsome.

After playing for a while, looking at the westward setting of the sun, I heard the girl say to the boy:

"Williams, we're going home."

The boy was extremely reluctant:

"Why are you in a hurry to go home? I'm not ready yet. ”

It turned out that the boy was trying to break a tree stick and tried to bend it, but because of the small force, he failed to do so several times.

The girl came over, looked at it, and said:

"What are you doing with all this stuff all day? Didn't Dad say it, let you study hard in the future and take the exam for a big official. ”

The boy pouted:

"I don't want to study, I don't want to take the exam, I just want to be a hero like my father."

The girl glared:

"You don't listen to me, see if I don't tell Dad, spank you!"

As he spoke, he snatched the stick from the boy's hand and threw it aside.

The boy cried:

"My sister is not good, my sister bullied me!"

The girl snorted:

"You're five years old, and you're still crying, so people don't laugh at you!"

The boy rubbed his eyes and muttered:

"I'm not afraid of people seeing. Besides, it's just Mom and Dad and the two of us here every day, so how can anyone come! ”

Girl said:

"Why didn't anyone come? Look, isn't that someone coming? ”

The girl said, gesturing with her hand.

The boy stopped crying and looked in the direction his sister was pointing.

I saw two horses on the mountain road coming slowly.

Boy Ichraku:

"I told Daddy to go!"

After speaking, he turned his head and ran to a grass house halfway up the mountain.

The sister shouted:

"Slow down, don't fall!"

He followed closely behind and ran towards the grass house.

The boy ran to the courtyard, and saw that when the door of the grass house opened, a young woman came out, who looked to be twenty-six or seventeen years old, with a high nose, deep eye sockets, a red mouth, a slightly dark face, and a slender figure.

When the boy saw it, he shouted:

"Mom, someone's coming!"

Before the young woman could speak, a man of about thirty years of age came out of the door, not very tall, but very strong, with two black mustaches on his upper lip, and his eyes were bright, and he was very handsome.

The girl also cried out:

"Dad, look, someone is coming!"

When the two children hadn't seen anyone for a long time, they were very excited.

The young woman put her arms around the boy, the man pulled the girl, and the four stopped to watch.

But he saw the two horses getting closer and closer, and after a while they came to him.

But when he saw the two big men turn over and dismount, one of them laughed and shouted:

"Brother! Younger sister! You two are hiding so quietly! I'm afraid I forgot my brother a long time ago! ”

The man was startled, let go of the girl, and went up early:

"Second brother, third brother, are you? I miss my brother! ”

The three big men hugged their waists and beat their shoulders, so they didn't make love.

The young woman stood on the side with her two children in her hands, smiling slightly.

One of the big men suddenly turned to the young woman:

"Look, you see, we only care about making out with our brothers, but we can leave our big beauty out in the cold!"

The other laughed:

"Oh my God, the beauty is getting more and more beautiful! gave birth to two children and is still so glorious, but the old brother is envious to death! ”

The young woman laughed and said:

"How about the two brothers just making fun of the little sister?"

The first laughed at the other:

"You owe it! How can an elder brother talk to his brother-in-law like this? Hey, this is my brother's daughter, right? Didn't Mo carve out a mold with her mother? ”

Another way:

"There's a handsome boy here, but this one is half of you!"

Several people laughed and entered the house together.

The boy ran before and after, excited.

A few people sat down, and the young woman waited for the tea early, and said with a smile:

"The two elder brothers are also full of glory, and their majesty has not diminished!"

A big Han Dao:

"Hugh Ti Huti! We're old, we're useless. It's a good time for brothers to be in full swing. ”

That young man was Long Zixi, and that young woman was Zhuo Ermei.

The two who came were Qin Xiongjie, the second eldest of the three heroes of the Qin family, and Qin Shijie, the third eldest of the three masters, but the two of them were more than forty years old, although their heroism had not diminished back then, but their sideburns had turned white.

It turned out that Long Zixi and Zhuo Ermei were not dead, and everything that happened in Baocheng thirteen years ago was a trap carefully designed by the princess.

236

Let's say that Long Zixi saw the old man and had mixed feelings:

"The younger brother only said that he will die here in this life, and he will never see a few brothers again! Come to think of it, hey, it's like a dream! ”

Qin Xiongjie said:

"Isn't it! You guys are hiding it well, and it took us a few years to find out the truth! ”

Long Zixi smiled:

"It's not that the younger brother deliberately hid it from his brother, but it was to cover people's eyes and ears at that time, so he had to do this."

Qin Shijie said:

"It's a secret, it's just that you're better at nothing than anything! Tell me, how have you been doing in the past ten years? ”

Long Zixi said while greeting the two of them with tea:

"It's all well arranged by the princess. Since the accident in Baocheng, Zhuo Ermei and I have secretly come here, which is where my father lived in seclusion.

"We got married the following year and had these two children.

"My father passed away five years ago, and there are only four of us left, raising a few horses, planting some vegetables and vegetables, and hunting some game, but we are also safe and happy.

"It's just that I often think about my brothers, and I also think about the princess......

"Speaking of the princess, she is really kind to us, if it weren't for her clever plan back then, I'm afraid we would have been ghosts a long time ago!"

Qin Xiongjie said:

"That's it, the princess really didn't say anything to her friends. Hi! Otherwise, the princess is really unpredictable! ”

Qin Shijie said:

"We only know that you two are okay later, but we still don't know a lot about the situation back then, so you have to tell us what happened?"

Longzi West Road:

"All of this is because the princess has long suspected that Lu Yixiang is a spy, but she has not exposed him. It was through him that he made a good game, not only allowing the younger brother to see his younger sister, but also keeping the younger brother and Zhuo Ermei, as well as the younger brother's sister safe and sound for so many years. ”

Qin Xiongjie was taken aback:

"Huh? It turns out that the baby girl really didn't die? That's a strange thing. ”

Zhuoermeidao:

"Why, you really don't know? It can be seen that this plan must also hide that Yin Qiu! ”

Qin Shijie said:

"Hey, and no one told us, how would we know? All we said was that the girl really had a cold and died! But what's going on? ”

Longzi West Road:

"We have to start from the beginning. Did the two elder brothers remember that the princess said that Father Yu Shi suggested to King Xuan that he should give Zhuo Ermei to Prince Po Ding? ”

The two nodded:

"Of course I do."

Longzi West Road:

"There is really no way to explain this. Also, Yin Qiu has to track down the baby girl, which is also very tricky. As for dealing with the younger brother, I have to put the younger brother to death. These three things are entangled together, and the two brothers think, how can they completely have a game? ”

Qin Xiongjie thought for a while and said:

"Unless Yin Qiu catches all three of you, or all three of you are dead."

Longzi West Road:

"Exactly. All three of us were caught by Yin Qiu, so it was unavoidable. Then there is only one way, and all three of us die. This is the princess's plan to do everything. Now that I think about it, although it is dangerous, it is really clever! ”

Qin Shijie said:

"It's rare for Yin Qiu to believe this result, this is easy to doubt."

Long Zixi nodded:

"Not bad. That's why the queen is clever. Although she has long suspected Lu Yixiang, she has never exposed him, just to use him.

"Let him see or hear the news of the death of the three of us with his own eyes and give a real witness, Yin Qiu will naturally be easy to believe.

It's just that he didn't expect that Yin Qiu was still not at ease, so he went to the Bao Mansion that night to personally investigate the truth.

"Fortunately, Hong Degongzi and Brother Hua rushed back in time, otherwise it would be really difficult to say.

"Also, it's a pity that the boy who looks like me died for his younger brother, alas."

The two Qin brothers thought back to the events of that night thirteen years ago, and they still couldn't figure it out.

Qin Shijie said:

"So, where did the kid go? Besides, did you follow us all the way? If you're a fake with us, why haven't we ever found out? ”

Longzi West Road:

"Otherwise, how could the princess say that this plan was only 50% sure.

"It's really difficult to implement this plan, especially it's actually difficult to prevent Lu Yixiang from discovering the flaws.

"The one who is with you, of course, is the fake me.

"Let you go your separate ways and meet at the Chunlai Tavern in Camel Xizhuang, this is the delicate thing about the princess.

"The princess had already calculated that it was already dark when we arrived at Camel Xizhuang, and after we met, we couldn't talk much, so I put on makeup again—of course it wasn't really me, how would you find out?

"None of you have noticed that Lu Yixiang has not had as much contact with me as you, and it is not easy to find out, plus that young man already looks very similar to me, and after being injured, his flesh and blood are blurred, which makes it even more difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.

Yang Pu glanced at Lu Yixiang when he checked the corpse, and asked him for confirmation.

Lu Yixiang naturally firmly believes that I am dead. With him testifying, it is naturally difficult for Yin Qiu to doubt it anymore. ”

Qin Shijie sighed:

"I kind of get it. What we did for Lu Yixiang was that we went to see the children all the way, but in fact, it was really the first way to meet the children.

"No wonder the princess didn't explain where to hunt in advance, so that Hua Dining would see the tips when she arrived. Yes and no? ”

Long Zixi shook his head:

"Not really. The princess expected that if this was the case, it would be difficult to deceive Yin Qiu. Yin Qiu must arrange people on both sides to follow and deal with it.

"Actually, I didn't go to see the child on either way, but I left Huadining halfway, and the other four of the 'Five Elements' led me to meet the child secretly. It's all laid out in detail in the bag. ”

Qin Shijie said:

"Who? The four of you said 'Five Elements'? Didn't they protect Shen Hou and return to Xishen Kingdom? ”

Qin Xiongjie said:

"Brother is still so naïve? I figured it out, that was what the princess said on purpose, and said it to Pinyixiang, yes or no? ”

Long Zixi nodded and said:

"Exactly. In fact, these obvious arrangements cannot deceive Lu Yixiang, and there is no need to deceive him, on the contrary, it is for him to pass on the news to Yin Qiu.

"It's just that there is a section of false self that he can't know, not even you. Only the princess, Brother Hua, and I know. ”

Qin Shijie said:

"Needless to say. Let Zhuo Ermei commit suicide, it is also the princess's careful arrangement. This princess really makes me admire it so much! ”

Long Zixi sighed:

"It's not all like that. Later, the princess told me that there was still something unexpected.

"First, I didn't expect Yin Qiu to really kill us; Otherwise, how can you be unguarded and let you be injured?

"According to the princess's original plan, it was to let the fake me fake suicide after hearing the news of the child's death.

"Second, I didn't expect Yin Qiu to take the initiative to come to the door, and it almost broke the big thing.

"The third is ......"

When Long Zixi said this, he glanced at Zhuo Ermei and said with a smile:

"Let her speak for herself."

Zhuoermei said:

"Well, the princess didn't tell me the truth at first, but I took it seriously.

"I was just thinking about that, yes, one to die.

"If no one was looking at me, I'd be dead!

Later, fake blood for self-use in pretending to commit suicide.

"However, it is true that I passed out a few times.

"I don't know why, although I know it's fake, I'm afraid that Brother Long is really dead?

"I can only say that that young man is too much like Brother Long."

As he spoke, he glanced at Long Zixi affectionately.

Qin Shijie smiled:

"That's God taking pity on our two brothers, not letting you die, if you died thirteen years ago, how can we taste your cooking skills today?"

Everyone laughed.

Zhuoermeidao:

"That's it, you see, just talking patronizingly, the little sister forgot all about cooking. You continue to talk first, and the little sister will go and prepare. ”

Qin Shijie said:

"It's okay to have a mess of food or something, just enough wine. You married me, we haven't drunk the wedding wine yet! ”

Zhuo Ermei smiled:

"This is natural. It's just that it's all Brother Long's own wine, and the two generals will drink it. ”

With that, Zolmei got up and went to cook, beckoning the girl out to help.

It turned out that the girl's name was Zhilan.

237

Ryuzixi continued:

"At that time, only the princess, my younger brother and Hong Degongzi, Hua Dining, and Huo Yunqi knew the truth.

"The princess said, let the little brother and I retire from the rivers and lakes, without her news, you must not show up in the rivers and lakes again, everything will wait for the prince of Gongnie to be called the queen.

The younger brother didn't want to cause trouble to the princess, and knowing that his sister was safe, he didn't have any other worries, so he really lived in seclusion here.

"Little brother, only a few of them know about this place."

Qin Xiongjie said:

"By the way, after talking for a long time, where did your sister go? What now?"

Longzi West Road:

After the younger brother went to see her, he took her back to Baofu, and Bao Hongde recognized her as his daughter. She was just over a year old at the time, and she didn't know what happened now. ”

Qin Shijie slapped his thigh:

"So it was her? That's a big beauty! Don't be angry, brother, that little girl is more different than Zhuo Ermei and the princess, and she is really rare in the world. Only one and rarely laughs. Everyone calls her Ice Beauty. ”

Long Zixi was puzzled:

"How did the two brothers know her?"

Qin Xiongjie said:

"That time you ...... Hehe, after I found out that it was a fake and you had an accident, our brother stayed in Baofu.

"Not long after, the son of Baojun Hongde got drunk once and told us that when he was young, he once went to the countryside to do ridiculous things, and he didn't expect to leave a baby girl.

Now that woman came to the door, she had to accept her as a concubine, but she liked the baby girl very much and named her Baoxi.

"At the time, we thought it was true, but we just laughed.

"Now that I think about it, isn't it just an excuse for Prince Hong De?"

Qin Shijie said:

"That Bao Xi does not shy away from everyone in the house, and treats his subordinates kindly. Therefore, most of the people know her, and we see each other often. It's just, where you want to get her, it's your sister! ”

When Long Zixi heard this, he got up and went to see Bao Xi, and thought about the princess, Hua Dining, the Fang family brothers and others, and hesitated in his heart.

Suddenly I remembered:

"Brother Qin, how is it?"

Qin Xiongjie sighed:

"My brother has fallen ill since he injured his lungs, and he died ten years ago.

Hearing that Qin Yingjie died of his injuries, Long Zixi remembered his many benefits back then, and his heart was sad, and he was speechless for a while.

After a few more moments, Zhuo Ermei brought the food and drinks.

There weren't many greens, but there were large plates of wild boar, rabbit and pheasant.

Four adults and two children eat and talk together.

Zhuo Ermei suddenly said:

"By the way, what happened to Miss Drowley?"

Qin Xiongjie said:

"She's fine. After you faked your death, she didn't know the truth, and she committed suicide several times, but she was rescued.

Later, when she learned the truth and knew that she could not come to you, she stayed in the Bao Mansion as well.

"Later, Hong Degongzi was the master and married her to the Hua Dining brothers, and now she has given birth to three children."

Zhuo Ermei remembered that this little girl was sincere to herself, and now she had a good result, and she couldn't help but be happy.

Qin Shijie sighed:

"It seems that everyone is good, but the princess is not so happy."

Long Zixi hurriedly asked:

"Princess...... How is she? ”

Qin Xiongjie said:

At the end of that event, the princess married Prince Miyane, and a few years later gave birth to a boy named Ginusu.

"King Xuan died the year before last, Prince Gongnie ascended the throne, called King You, the princess really became the queen, and Yijiu was also made the prince.

"It stands to reason that the princess should be all right. However, I was very troubled when I heard about it, and I always missed the old days. ”

Long Zixi sighed:

"What's wrong with her? Alas. ”

Qin Xiongjie said: "

Don't be angry with this brother, she's upset, but it's not entirely because of you, brother. ”

Long Zixi Yileng, his heart said:

"Oh, all I said she couldn't let me go."

Thinking about it, I glanced at Zhuo Ermei, and I felt quite sorry in my heart.

Zhuo Ermei didn't care, and Waner smiled.

Qin Xiongjie said:

"That Youwang was quite good in the early years, but in recent years, he has become unconscious. is good at women, he has thirty or fifty concubines, and he still recruits beautiful women everywhere, which makes people complain, thieves are everywhere, and the world is not so peaceful.

"Do you think the princess can be happy as a queen?"

Long Zixi sighed, thinking in his heart that he didn't know how sad the princess was, and he wanted to see her.

Zhuo Ermei saw Long Zixi's troubles, and said with a smile:

"Brother Long just sighed, what? Don't ask, how did the two brothers get here? ”

Long Zixi heard Zhuo Ermei say this, and felt ashamed in his heart:

"That's what Madame said! I was about to ask my two brothers. ”

Qin Xiongjie said:

"We came to see my brother this time, but it was Hong Dejun's meaning. He, he encountered a difficult thing in life! ”

Long Zixi hurriedly asked what was wrong.

Qin Xiongjie said:

"This matter has to start with the King of You."

Now, let's tell a reason.

It turns out that this Youwang is not only a good woman, but also violent and unkind, moody, and blindly listens to the words of traitorous ministers such as Yu Shifu, Sai Gongyi, Yin Qiu, etc., ignores the government and does not ask about the suffering of the people.

Last year, Jing, He, and Luosanchuan earthquakes on the same day, King Youwang did not think about the rescue, but instead persuaded his doctor, Uncle Zhao, to take the official and rush back to his hometown.

Doctor Bao Jue, the father of Bao Hongde, heard that Uncle Zhao was expelled, hurriedly entered the court, and said something unpleasant, King You was furious and put Bao Jue on death row.

Hong Degongzi thought twice, but he had no plan to save his father.

I also heard that King You intended to execute Bao Jue, and Prince Hong De was even more anxious, so he remembered Long Zixi, hoping to use Long Zixi's road to ask for help from the queen, that is, the princess.

Qin Xiongjie finally said:

"Hong Dejun didn't want to work for you to go out of the mountain, but he knew that you and the princess were the most in love, and if you asked the princess for help, the princess would have no reason to let it go. I don't know what the Zixi brothers think? ”

Long Zixi listened to it and said immediately:

"Back then, Hong Dejun treated me and Brother Hua very well, and Hong Degongzi was even more protective of my sister and adopted her to grow up, and I always wanted to repay this kindness. That being the case, I can't say it, the little brother will go down the mountain for a while! ”

Zhuoermeidao:

"Brother Long is going, how about the three of us?"

Qin Xiongjie said:

"I go to Baocheng. Hong Dejun and the Hua brothers also miss the girl very much. And Miss Drowley, who is clamoring to come with us to see you this time. ”

The plan has been decided.

After dinner, everyone rested, and there was nothing to clean up the next day, so the horses were prepared, and the four members of the Long Zixi family rushed to Baocheng with the Qin family brothers.

Along the way, the two children were very excited to see everything that was new, needless to say.
