In the evening, a troop of cavalry escorted a carriage on the wide streets, the autumn wind at the end of September was already beginning to show coldness, and the city of Handan had just experienced a great battle, and there were few pedestrians in the city of Handan in the evening.

At present, apart from the few shops with oil lamps, all that remains is the sound of horseback marching in the streets.

Hearing the sound, a shopkeeper who was still open hurriedly came out to see if there was any business coming to the door, but when he saw the slowly moving horse team and quickly retreated, it was obvious that the battle in front of him frightened him, but then he did not feel afraid, and the people who had been with him for several days knew that the army in the city was a benevolent army and would never bully the people.

The chariot and horses walked with open fire, and everyone who saw them looked at the bright armor and tall horses, and they all wondered who was in the carriage.

In the midst of speculation, it was quickly concluded that the person in the car should be the unicorn sung in children's songs these days. When I think of the unicorn, I naturally also think of the nursery rhyme: 'Handan unicorn, can write and martial arts, the five tiger generals under his command, the long live army of a hundred battles, and fight the moths and thieves to protect the people'

This nursery rhyme first appeared three days ago after Jiang Qi opened a warehouse to release grain, since the Qin and Han dynasties, the people like to protect the officials of one side, or the heroic deeds in their hearts into songs and songs, even if the words are not rhymed.

Naturally, Jiang Qi laughed in embarrassment when he heard it, but despite this, the singing of the ballad also showed that Jiang Qi was recognized by the people.

It's just that the people of the whole city are happy and excited, but there is a family that can't be happy, when the Han army breaks the city, the family is already panicking, especially in the past few days the city is everywhere to check the yellow turban first evil, but has not been to his home, this situation makes the head of the family even more uneasy, and he can't sleep well for several days.

Until this afternoon, they were surrounded by a group of elite soldiers outside their house.

In the face of the murderous Han army, his hanging heart finally let go, and he could sleep well, but he knew that maybe this was the last sleep in this life.

"Master Jun, may I ask you what are you doing here?" , Earlier, seeing that the Han army was surrounded and did not enter, the housekeeper who got the order was still bold enough to inquire about the situation, hoping to get an answer.

However, the answer he got was a cold sword blade, and the leader directly pressed the sword and said sharply: "Go back 、、、、、、"

"Master Jun, what is this for, come to Master Jun to drink wine." In order to find out the truth, the butler hurriedly smiled and stuffed a money bag into the commander.

The butler, who originally thought that he could get the news through the money strategy, was disappointed, but saw the commander sneering and checking the money bag and said, "Someone! This person openly bribed the marquis of this army and dragged him out to beat twenty military sticks! As he spoke, he threw the money bag in the butler's face: "Do you think that I am a greedy person for money?"

The righteous and awe-inspiring person is Li Ji, who was promoted to the military marquis of the Yue Cavalry Battalion because of a blessing in disguise, and has been with Jiang Qi for almost a year, of course he knows what he can and can't do, and he will not ruin his future for this hundred big money.

When the half-dead butler who was beaten by the 20th army was carried into the mansion and said the words 'Yue Cavalry Battalion' in exchange for half his life, Wang Wen's eyes were black and he almost fainted.

"Sir, sir!! Father 、、、、、、, "The head of the family has no idea, and even if he is frightened, several concubines and children hurriedly surround him and greet him."

"Master, what the hell is going on?" , Since a few days ago, his own master went against the norm and locked up Lan Xiang and his son Wang Bin, who had been in control of the backyard for many years, the eldest Zhao turned over and became the master, and he was a lot happier these days, and now he looked at these days as if he was ten years old.

"It's over, it's over, the Wang family is over! It seems that the bitter fruit planted sixteen years ago is now time to be repaid, but it is a pity that it has affected you. Wang Wen hugged his youngest son, who had just turned five, on his lap and said to himself with tears in his eyes.

"What is the matter with the master, is it the matter of Young Master Bin, is it like this, and the Han army is only punished for evil?" After the fall of Lanxiang, Webster, who got a lot of benefits, took the opportunity to add fuel and vinegar to the fire, hoping to completely defeat Lanxiang's mother and son.

"If you can keep the old and young in the family, even if the family is bankrupt, but no one will let my family go easily, he wanted to kill me six years ago, but I didn't expect it!!" Wang Wen closed his eyes painfully and said.

"Six years ago? Don't! What the master said was 、、、、" Zhao reacted in surprise.

"Yes, it's Qi'er who is back, maybe it's time to call General Qilin now, sixteen years ago, I was confused and listened to the words of the demon woman, and abandoned the mother and son, but now I regret it." Wang Wen said bitterly.

"You can't be wrong, sir! Young Master Qi is still a teenager, how could he come back to take revenge, and besides, the master doesn't have to blame himself, Young Master Qi was indeed born different, and the master 、、、、" Wei comforted.

"What do you know about a woman, I found someone to calculate after the last time Qi'er came back from the dead, Qi'er's life is rare to see in a hundred years, and it is born with the Rui Beast, which can be described as unspeakably expensive, and it is light to pay homage to the marquis. And its natural eyes, it is the ancient sage only have, now only a mere age, is already the commander of the forbidden army, this rebellion is likely to be sealed, the view of the past dynasties only the champion Hou can be compared. Wang Wen said with a sigh.

"Mother, who is Qi'er?" Listening to the words of the adults, a little girl in a white Confucian skirt, who was about eight or nine years old, pulled the sleeve of her mother in front of her and asked.

"Xing'er, don't talk nonsense, that's Xing'er's big brother." Mother Zhang whispered to her.

"Oh, isn't it that good-looking little Taoist priest a few years ago?" Wang Xing'er asked happily and loudly.

"Apricot、、、、 recognize?" In the originally quiet house, Apricot's voice sounded very loud, and everyone looked back at the mother and daughter, who usually rarely attracted the attention of others.

Of course, Xing'er's words attracted Wang Wen's attention, perhaps because he felt that his limit was approaching. Then he beckoned to him even more unprecedentedly and let him pass, you must know that except for Wang Bin, the other children Wang Wen didn't care much.

Seeing her father who rarely spoke to her, Xing'er looked at her mother timidly, and only after receiving encouragement did she slowly walk over and say obediently: "Father、、、、、"

Not to mention looking at his well-behaved daughter, Wang Wen still felt a little guilty in his heart, and after touching his daughter's little face, Wang Wen smiled, and smiled very easily.

With a smile, he looked around at the five sons and six daughters in the house, and the children were all very handsome. Of course, the handsomeness of the children is also inseparable from his genetics, twenty years ago, Wang Wen relied on a face to fascinate thousands of girls, including Jiang Qi's mother, and now Jiang Qi's face that fascinates people and does not pay for their lives has also been inherited.

Seeing that the eldest of his children was fifteen and the youngest was five years old, Wang Wen had the idea of exchanging his life for the lives of his children at this moment. Now he understands the meaning of a home, and at this moment he is completely enlightened.

It's a pity that everything is now a foregone conclusion, Wang Wen knows that even regretting it will be useless, so he decided to face everything. Then the word was passed down, so that all the houses, young and old, would gather in the main hall where only great events occurred in the clan, and no matter what happened tomorrow, at least they could have a meal with the family today.

Although the atmosphere in the clan is not right these days, the people do not dare to speculate, with Wang Wen's orders, in the evening, rows of uniformly dressed maids carrying plates of delicious meals, into the main house of the mansion, which is as tall as a palace.

At this time, the palace-like main house was already filled with more than 200 people from the royal family, and such a battle would only happen during festivals or ancestor worship every year.

However, today's atmosphere is obviously wrong, and even the ladies sitting in the front row are secretly touching their tears. Only when he can't see sadness, Wang Wen, the head of the family who is gray in middle age, is uncharacteristically talking and laughing with several old brothers in the clan.

As the lights came on, Wang Wen, who was slightly drunk, got up and raised the wine cup and said to the clansmen: "You clansmen may know a little bit about it, since my father died three years ago, the position of the head of the family was passed to Wen, Wen thanked all the uncles and brothers for their support over the years, and I can only express my gratitude here with this wine." ”

"Of course, over the years, the head of the family has done something indebted to the family, and he has lived up to your expectations. But rest assured, Wen Yi has escaped for a long time, and now he will bear all the faults, no matter what the consequences are, it will not affect everyone. If Wen is gone, the position of the head of the family will be handed over to the second brother Jing, I hope you will take care of your family for the sake of the same clan. After speaking, Wang Wen raised his head sadly and drank the wine in the bowl.

Hearing Wang Wen's words, several concubines on the side cried, and the sound of talking about each other buzzed for a while. There are those who are sad and those who rejoice.

At this moment, there was a sudden burst of applause on the steps outside the lobby. As the applause approached, a young man over eight feet tall and dressed in a splendid scribe's robe stepped up the steps to the high platform.

As the young man approached, everyone present in front of the candle flame could see his appearance clearly, his knife-like face, straight nose bridge, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, which couldn't help but make people feel a sense of déjà vu. Soon everyone reflected that this person's face was actually sixty percent acquainted with the current head of the family, Wang Wen, when he was young.

However, the momentum between the young man's eyebrows, as well as the fortitude under his beard, are not possessed by the feminine Wang Wen. Of course, as soon as I saw this person, his identity was about to be revealed.

It's just that soon, the people of the Wang family, who were still looking at the person with curiosity, quickly withdrew their necks. Because behind him was a group of fierce and vicious Han troops.

With the arrival of the Han army, the sound of needles falling to the ground could be heard in the quiet for a while, only a girl was not afraid, but jumped to the beautiful woman next to her and said: "Mother is the eldest brother, the eldest brother, the eldest brother is as good-looking as the little Taoist priest a few years ago, but the beard is a little scary!" ”

In the silence of the scene, the girl's voice spread to all corners like thunder, so frightened that the beautiful woman hurriedly covered her daughter's mouth, for fear of being heard.

Of course, it was too late, how could Jiang Qi not hear it in such a quiet environment, but Jiang Qi was not ready to investigate, just glanced at the little girl with pink carved jade, and walked towards Wang Wen, who was already sluggish.

After getting closer, Jiang Qi took the wine cup from Wang Wen, who had not yet come back to his senses, and said, "I just heard what Wang Weng said." reminded Qi of the thorn of Qin's Jing Ke, and he really had a bit of a wind and a bleak atmosphere! ”

"Qi, Qi'er、、、、、" Hearing Jiang Qi's words, it took a long time for Wang Wen to come back to his senses, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

"Wang Weng, it's a bit inappropriate to call Qi like that! You can call Qi a general, or you can call Jiang Gongzi, as for the title just now, you are not qualified! Jiang Qi smiled and turned to the people present: "I forgot to introduce, under Jiang Qi's character Boxiao, now the captain of the Han Yue Cavalry, I take the liberty to disturb today, I hope you will forgive me." He bowed as he spoke.

"Why is the eldest young master so polite, everyone is a family!" Seeing that the atmosphere was very embarrassing, Zhao on the side hurriedly came out to play the round.

"Haha、、、、 this lady is really good at laughing, how dare Qi be called the eldest young master! It's not my Luoyang Jiang family, is it! Wang Weng? Jiang Qi laughed and said: "Fortunately, God still has mercy on Qi, although he can't be the eldest young master of the Wang family, but he has a good mother, and now Qi is also the eldest grandson of the Jiang family." ”

"Okay, let's get down to business, Qi is not here today." After the sarcasm was finished, Jiang Qi sat down on Wang Wen's food table, picked the food on the table with a chopstick, skimmed it and said: "It is worthy of being the first in Handan, with a meal worthy of a January meal for an ordinary family of three!" But that's it! You're not satisfied! ”

As he spoke, Jiang Qi changed his words, threw down the food chopsticks with anger and clapped his hands. With the sound of clapping hands, soon two pro-soldiers walked in carrying two large boxes of things.

Jiang Qi got up and patted the vermilion wooden box gently, and said, "Wang Bin is the eldest young master of your family!" Where are the people? ”

Looking at Jiang Qi's angry face, Wang Wen unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat on his back, he was a little at a loss at the moment, or the Zhao family next to him replied: "The master knows that the son of a son has committed a big crime, and before the young master arrived, he has already arrested him and his mother!" ”

"Yes, the whole family can testify, all the things committed by that son of evil were instigated by his mother, including driving away the young master and his wife back then!" , another concubine Wei also took the opportunity to add fuel and vinegar to the vinegar and said, that posture is completely to be pushed away, of course, she knows that the purpose of Jiang Qi's trip is completely to use the topic to play.

"Really? Wang Weng really doesn't know? Although he didn't understand the world, Jiang Qi would never feel that the second daughter in front of him was a good person, and finally looked straight at Wang Wen and said.

"Hold, 、、、、、" After Wang Wen swallowed two sentences, he finally looked at the murderous Han army and plucked up the courage to say: "Qi'er! As a father, I know that I was sorry for your mother and son back then, and what is there to be a father today, even if you die, as long as you let go of the clansmen, no matter how you say that I am also your father, my life is enough to pay it back! ”

"Haha、、、、 Wang Weng may think too highly of himself, don't talk about your grievances with me, I have cleared them up ten years ago. But the pain suffered by my mother and sister in Handan can be repaid with your life? For Wang Wen's righteousness, Jiang Qi kicked the sturdy pear wood box in front of him in anger to vent. Then the unlucky wooden box couldn't stand Jiang Qi's strength, and it was torn apart with a 'bang', and the bamboo slips inside flew to the ground.

Seeing that Jiang Qi, who was still gentle and elegant just now, suddenly turned his face, Wang Wen, who finally mustered up his courage, instantly sat down on the ground.

Then Jiang Qi picked up a bundle of bamboo slips on the ground and put it in front of Wang Wen: "Do you think Qi is a personal vendetta today?" Not to mention anything else, it is the evidence of your son Wang Bin colluding with the Yellow Turban Army to capture the city and kill the people, and your family can be beheaded all over the house! ”

"But 、、、、、 Qi is not so vicious."

Saying that, Jiang Qi clapped his hands again, and when he heard Jiang Qi's signal, a personal soldier walked in with a wine jar in his arms.

The wine jar can probably hold more than ten catties of wine, and after the soldiers put the wine jar on the table, Jiang Qiqi opened the mud, and then took out a small bottle from his arms, smiled at Wang Wen and poured the whole bottle of transparent things into it.

"According to the crime, your family should be the three clans, but Qi is not so vicious, and according to the feelings, you should also leave a whole corpse. Rest assured, Qi is a doctor from elementary school, and it will never make you suffer, so please enjoy it slowly. Jiang Qi smiled strangely at Wang Wen, who was colorless opposite.

"It's all here today, so let's enjoy it together! Remember everyone to drink! Don't waste Qi's thoughts. ”

After Jiang Qi finished speaking, he got up and walked to the little girl who was talking just now, squatted down with a smile and touched the girl's face, and said with a smile: "Of course, you can get rid of it, what is the name of the little sister?" ”

"Xing'er," Wang Xing'er looked at her mother and said with some fear, she was obviously frightened by Jiang Qi's behavior just now.

"Apricot, hehe! It's a nice name, would you like to walk around the backyard with me? Jiang Qi squatted down and said.

"Mother, Xing'er, can I go with my eldest brother?" , Wang Xing'er thought about holding her mother's hand and asked.

I had heard Jiang Qi's words clearly just now, Wang Xing'er's mother Zhang seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, she knew that at least Jiang Qi would not embarrass her daughter, how could she not let go of this opportunity, and quickly nodded and agreed.

Looking at Jiang Qi's behavior, Wang Wen and several concubines hurriedly brought their children over to beg Jiang Qi, hoping that Jiang Qi could look at the love between their brothers and sisters and not embarrass their children. However, Jiang Qi ignored the people who knelt down and begged for mercy, and quickly walked out of the hall with the help of several personal soldiers.

Walking out of the lobby, Jiang Qi walked towards the northwest corner by feeling, and Xing'er, who was holding in his hand, finally asked boldly, "Big brother?" Where are you going to take the apricots? ”

"Go and see where you were back then." Jiang Qi replied with a smile.

"Has the eldest brother ever lived at home? Why didn't Xing'er know that Xing'er and her mother used to go outside the city to see the eldest mother and sister Li'er, so shouldn't the eldest brother's family be outside the city? Wang Xing'er looked at Jiang Qi with wide eyes and said.

"Oh, Xing'er still knows Sister Li'er?" Jiang Qi stopped, pulled Wang Xing'er to sit down on the railing next to the cloister, and asked curiously.

Xing'er didn't know, it was her mother who took Xing'er there, and her mother asked Xing'er to call the beautiful sister the eldest sister, and the beautiful aunt to call the eldest aunt. But Xing'er hasn't seen her aunt and eldest sister for a long time, and her aunt and sister are kind to Xing'er, not only playing with Xing'er, but also giving pastries and candy to Xing'er. Unlike a few aunts and sisters in the family, they bully Xing'er and their mother all day long. Wang Xing'er said with her chin propped up.

Although it is said that the child's words are unscrupulous, but often what the child says is indeed very credible, Jiang Qi touched Xiao Xing'er's head lovingly, thinking that what she said should have happened after she went back to Wang's house a few years ago.

Thinking that since he had this love, Jiang Qi said with a smile: "Then Xing'er can also go to Luoyang to find her sister in the future!" At that time, my sister must be good to Apricot. ”

"Is it true? Then Mother can go? Apricot jumped for joy.

"Of course, but this is a secret between the two of us, and we can't tell anyone else." Jiang Qi said.

"Father, too?" Apricot asked innocently.

"Of course, if Xing'er tells others, then Sister Li'er won't give Xing'er candy to eat." Jiang Qi frightened.

Of course, this trick to deal with children worked, and Wang Xinger hurriedly promised that she would never say it to others. After a short exchange, Wang Xing'er was no longer afraid of Jiang Qi, but felt that this brother was very good, and kept telling Jiang Qi interesting stories along the way.

Walking through the back garden where he almost died, under the light of the torches of the soldiers behind him, Jiang Qi quickly found the small courtyard where he had stayed in his childhood.

Pushing open the door of the courtyard covered with cobwebs, a musty smell came to his face, and Jiang Qi, who rushed straight away, coughed again and again.

As the soldiers lit torches in every corner, Jiang Qi's courtyard, which was originally very delicate and elegant in memory, now looks desolate.

Whether it's the weedy ground or the crumbling rafters, it shows that this place has long been uninhabited.

However, the peach tree that still grew tenaciously and the stone lock lying quietly in the corner still aroused Jiang Qi's many memories.

When entering the room that was already leaking on all sides, Jiang Qi was also pleasantly surprised to find the Keju he had played in his childhood. After an hour of leaving the home in his memory, Jiang Qi reluctantly left, and at the same time took away the last nostalgia for the Wang family.

、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、
