"Dye, this ......" Xia Jingyan was about to say something, but was stopped by Zhou Ranmiao.

Zhou Ranmiao took Xia Jingyan's hand and walked forward with a smile, someone in the village saw Zhou Ranmiao outside the village, and immediately attracted everyone to greet him, smiling as if he was going to celebrate the New Year.

"Young owner!"

"Young Lord, you're back!

Everyone was noisy, but there was no chaos at all, standing outside Zhou Ranmao's arm, as if there was a line in front of them, very orderly.

"The big guys have worked hard, and they haven't come back for a long time, are you okay?" Zhou Ranmiao waved his hand to signal that everyone was quiet, and then said.

"We're all good! Is it good to have a few owners? It's not easy to go to the palace to make a living, but what grievances have you suffered? An old man in the village asked, tears hanging on his face, choked up.

"Uncle Zhang, everything is fine with me, the prince is virtuous, and he is kind to Dye Mao." Zhou Ranmiao responded, glanced at Xia Jingyan with a smile, and took Xia Jingyan's hand and raised it with his fingers interlocked, so that everyone could see, "Dye Miao is still in love with the county lord's mother!" Zhou Ranmiao deliberately said very loudly.

Xia Jingyan blushed instantly, grabbed Zhou Ranmiao's sleeve and whispered "complaining": "What are you doing, there are so many people!" ”

"Why don't you call the young owner's wife?" Zhou Ranmiao deliberately teased, and took Xia Jingyan into his arms.

"Mrs. Young Owner!" Everyone shouted in unison.

Xia Jingyan hurriedly hid behind Zhou Ranmao, he was really shy.

"It is rare for the young owner and his wife to come back, so let's go and prepare food for the two of you. Ay! Dick! Don't kill a pig yet! The old man shouted again.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Everyone was lively, "When the young owner and his wife come back, then we have to set up a few tables to celebrate!" ”

"Alright, alright." Zhou Ranmiao smiled helplessly, "Then everyone is so enthusiastic, Dye Miao and Mrs. will not be polite to everyone, the hour is still early, everyone is busy first, Dye Hao takes Mrs. to visit the village, okay?" ”

"Good!" Everyone immediately made way for Zhou Ranmiao and Xia Jingyan, and Zhou Ranmiao took Xia Jingyan's hand and walked under everyone's eyes.

"Cousin." Zhou Ranmiao was about to move forward, when Gu Yun's voice came from behind.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Ranmiao turned his head.

In the past few days of traveling, Gu Yun has not spoken much, and Zhou Ranmiao thought that he must have returned to Yihe, evoking memories and being sad.

"I see that everyone in the village is working hard, it's rare to come back, if you can help, you can help a little more, cousin and the county lord go around, after a while, I will invite my cousin and the county lord to dinner." Gu Yun looked a little disappointed, but he smiled reluctantly.

"Okay, let's go." Zhou Ran responded and patted Gu Yun's shoulder, implying comfort.

Gu Yun smiled, nodded, and left.

Even Xia Jingyan noticed Gu Yun's sadness, looking at Gu Yun's back, she asked Zhou Ranmiao with some doubts: "Dyeing, what's wrong with Mr. Gu?" ”

"I haven't been back to my hometown once in a long time, and I'm homesick." Zhou Ranmiao stared at Gu Yun's back and sighed.

"Isn't that now a return to my hometown? Why are you so sad? ”

"Yan'er, you're wrong, this is not Gu Yun's hometown."

Xia Jingyan looked back at Zhou Ranmiao, and Zhou Ranmiao also looked at her.

"Yan'er, I once told you that the Nine Clans were dead, and you suspected that I was the same, I took you back to my hometown to explain to you clearly......"

Zhou Ranmiao motioned to Xia Jingyan to look around the village.

"What do you think of this place?" Zhou Ranmiao asked.

"It was peaceful and welcoming." Xia Jingyan looked at the people talking and laughing in the village and smiled.

The next moment, she couldn't laugh anymore.

Zhou Ranmiao's voice was cold: "This is a slaughterhouse. ”

Xia Jingyan's smile froze on her face, and she looked around again, there was really no trace of killing, but when she looked back at the depth of Zhou Ranmao's eyes, she had to believe it.

"Eight years ago, the appearance of this place was similar to what it is now, everyone performed their duties, lived and worked in peace and contentment, but the difference was that we people, there was no communication before, each family took care of each other, my family, my parents and brothers, compared to them were richer, that's all, we all thought that we could live this life peacefully and peacefully, until ...... In the Battle of the Four Rivers, the Zhou State was weak, and the Qi Emperor of Beijiang took advantage of the chaos to raise troops and invaded the Nanjiang Zhou State ......"

Xia Jingyan slowly looked at Zhou Ranmiao, and she saw Zhou Ranmiao's eyes with tears.

When this happened, Xia Jingyan had not yet been born, but she knew it clearly.

At that time, the four rivers were in a scuffle, the most powerful was the Dongjiang Yuan State and the Beijiang Qi State, the two countries competed with each other, and the Qi State gradually lost the enemy, so he attacked the Nanjiang Zhou State with a 100,000 army, forcing the Zhou Emperor to cut the land to pay tribute, which saved him from a war, but even if the war stopped, the border land of the Zhou State was also seriously damaged.

Could it be that Zhou Ranmao's family is included?

"At that time, the Qi army attacked, my parents and brothers did not want to let the Qi army bully, and led the people in the mountains to voluntarily form an army to go out, and also broke a deputy branch of the Qi army, but the Qi army was strong, how could a few mountain people be the enemy? My parents, after all, died tragically under the sword of the Qi army, and the brothers fled, but when the Zhou Kingdom fell, the Qi army asked the lives of my nine clans to pay for the lives of the dead soldiers, and my brothers tried their best to send me out, but they ...... but he was abused to death......"

Zhou Ranmiao trembled and clenched his fists.

To this day, they ...... Qi Jun still doesn't know that I'm alive, if they do, I'm afraid I won't live today......" Zhou Ranmiao's tears fell out of his eyes.

The one on the side is fake, but the tragic death of the Nine Clans is a bloody fact!

As long as Zhou Ranmiao mentions his parents and brothers, he will always have a heart-rending pain.

Zhou Ran's heart was full of hatred, and he couldn't help but explode.

A few words, how to express the scene of the blood splashed in Qing, which is enough to make people remember for a lifetime? But the one who destroyed the Zhou State was the father of the beloved person of the young lord of the Zhou Kingdom.

Zhou Ranmao wanted to hate, wanted to hate the Xia family, but he couldn't suppress his love for Xia Jingyan, that love had already been deep in his bones, he couldn't forget it, he couldn't control it.

Xia Jingyan is the only person who has brought him light in the past ten years.

At this time, Xia Jingyan hugged Zhou Ranmiao tightly from his waist, and Zhou Ranmiao's heart was so painful that it was about to stand still.

"Dyeing, you still have me, you still have the backer of Xia Wangfu, from now on, Xia Wangfu will be your home, and my brother and I will protect you......"

Xia Jingyan looked at Zhou Ranmao uncomfortable, and he couldn't help crying.

"Everyone in the world is afraid of the power of the palace, including the royal family of Beijiang Qi, as long as they dare to touch you, my Xia Wangfu will dare to destroy his family!"

It's annihilation again, Zhou Ranmiao was heartbroken when he heard these two words, but after all, the two words that came out of Xia Jingyan's mouth were for his own good, and Zhou Ranmiao also hugged Xia Jingyan.
