19 Chapter 19

It was even quieter, and the East Palace suddenly became lively.

Jianning quickly gathered people, walked in the firelight, and walked into the hall to report: "Your Highness, the people are ready. ”

Before Li Wenjian could speak, Liu Yi beside him persuaded: "Your Highness, the palace gate has been banned, and opening the palace gate at this time will definitely cause panic." Your Highness thinks twice. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu looked up at Li Wenjian, his eyes were full of tears, and the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, like fine lines climbing on the glass that was about to break, if he shook his head, she would suddenly shatter.

"Go ahead." He nodded at Zhao Yu and motioned for Yin Ning to take her out of the palace.

Zhao Yu's hanging heart finally let go, held back his tears, bowed deeply to Li Wenjian, turned around and ran out of the Chengming Palace.

Li Wenjian looked at her through the palace gate, Jian Ning was a martial artist, her steps were wide, she followed very hard, and she almost trotted to follow her pace.

The skirt swayed in the night breeze, the firelight faded away, and her figure disappeared completely, before he sat back in his chair and said slowly: "Father, Queen Mother, I will explain there." ”

Everyone looked at the direction where the brigade Yu Linwei disappeared in surprise, looked at each other, and guessed Zhao Yu's identity.

It was a thrilling night for Zhao.

The vast capital was shrouded in darkness, and the silence was like a cemetery. In the deathly silence, the iron hooves of the war horse stepped across the long street, waking up countless people. Many people got up in their clothes and lay on the lattice, looking through the thick night, only to see two fiery dragons speeding through the long street.

Out of the city, Yu Linwei divided into four teams of people and horses along the direction of Xuejia Village to the White Horse Temple and scattered to find people.

Yin Ning led a team of men and horses to send Zhao Yu back to the village first.

Several families close to Zhao's family were all screamed.

The people of the Lin family heard someone call the door, and opened the door tremblingly, and before they could ask, they saw two people as tall as the door gods standing at the door, with iron armor flashing with cold light, which made people can't help but be frightened, and Aunt Lin, who has always been spicy, made a false noise: "You, what are you doing?" ”

The door god's voice was as cold as ice, and he said, "Please follow along." ”

The little grandson of the Lin family hid behind and cried in fright. The child's mother trembled with fright, hurriedly covered the child's mouth, trembling and about to speak, when she suddenly noticed that Yu Linwei's broad hand stroked the big knife on the side of her waist, her throat rolled slightly, and she swallowed back into her stomach what she wanted to say.

No matter how unwilling they were, it was useless, so they could only resign themselves to following these people.

But he didn't expect to be pulled to the courtyard of Zhao's house.

The courtyard is lit up with firelight, like bright day, and it lasts for a long time.

One after another, other families were pulled over, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing what was going on, and gathered together to whisper and discuss.

At the same time, a dark horse bursts in from the night.

This man is also dressed in iron armor, but his form is more complex. With his arrival, a Yu Linlang pressed a long knife, ran quickly to the outside of the courtyard, and clenched his fists at the people on the horse: "General, several families near the Zhao family are here." ”

Yin Ning nodded, did not speak, and neatly turned over and dismounted.

Then he bent down and stretched out his hand to Zhao Yu on horseback: "Miss Zhao, it's here." ”

Zhao Yu took his hand and jumped off the horse, and followed him into the courtyard where he had not returned for a long time.

Aunt Lin raised her head boldly, and saw that in the team of Yu Linwei who was fighting with open fire, a person strode in, he was tall and long-legged, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his stride was even more calm and arrogant than a talented person.

Then she noticed that behind him, there was a woman with her. Because her figure is too slender, she can see it clearly when she gets closer. Seeing her face clearly, Aunt Lin gasped.

The woman's skin was brighter than snow, almost glowing in the firelight, and her eyebrows and eyes were slender and beautiful, like a pearl.

The fairy portrait at the temple fair is less than one-twelfth of the people in front of him.

Zhao Yu has not returned for ten years, and her home is not the same as when she was there.

The house has been renovated with the best kapok tiles, which are breathable and rain resistant; The yard was neatly kept, with a newly woven fence separating the yard from the path outside; There was a chicken pen in the corner, and the little chicks raised by the grandmother were frightened and were flapping their wings to fly out of the chicken coop......

The irises in the corner of the wall are green, and the small courtyard is thriving.

Their days are getting better and better.

"No, she has a good temper and has no enmity with anyone."

The people of the village have experienced the chaos of war and have a natural fear of those in iron armor. Aunt Lin endured her fear and tried to recall the bits and pieces of getting along with Grandma Zhao.

"Yesterday at noon, a nun came to the village to make a fortune, and the aunt of the Zhao family gave her alms." Aunt Lin said tremblingly.

I really can't ask for any useful information. Everyone said that the grandmother of the Zhao family was kind, never grudged with others, and almost cut off contact with her relatives, and she had not moved for so many years.

The kidnapper will not abduct an old woman of this age, and there is no grudge against anyone, where did that person go?

Xuejia Village to the White Horse Temple is a smooth road, and it is impossible to get lost.

Will someone kidnap grandma to blackmail herself? Zhao analyzed calmly and quickly dismissed the idea. Not to mention that she is humble and has no coercion value, and the most important thing is that two days have passed, and no one has looked for her.

"Miss Zhao is relieved, she is not a grudge with others, and she will be able to find it soon." Yin Ning said.

That's it, which makes Zhao Yu even more anxious. She would rather her grandmother be kidnapped.

took risks to tie her up, most of them asked for something, and grandma's safety was sufficiently guaranteed; Now there is no news at all, which is even more frightening.

"I'll go to the White Horse Temple to have a look." Zhao Yu's heart was in turmoil.

Jian Ning stopped her and said, "Girl, if there is someone in this world who Yu Linwei can't find, then others must not be able to find it." ”

After a pause, he persuaded Zhao Yu: "Girl, you go into the house to rest, there is news, Yu Linwei will come back to report immediately." ”

Zhao looked up at the mountains in the night, and the shadows of the trees were clearly illuminated by the blazing firelight. She didn't insist, and she was even more afraid of causing chaos, so she turned around and walked into the house.

In the second half of the night, the sky began to rain, and the spring rain lingered, falling on the tiles.

She fell asleep on the bed where her grandmother had slept, wrapped in a quilt and falling asleep for some time.

In a trance, I saw a gray figure under the big willow tree at the entrance of the village.

She ran at her in the rain, trotting towards her, and as the distance closed, her face slowly cleared.

The under-eyes are as gentle as water.

It's her — it's grandma.

Grandma smiled lovingly at her and called her name: "Ahhh ”

She smiled like that, and Zhao's heart was as warm as spring, enough to melt the snow in the world, and enough to resolve countless grievances.

Zhao Yu wanted to answer her, but she was afraid that it was a dream, and when she woke up from the dream, she was about to disappear.

So she only dared to nod her head carefully, and walked forward in the rain as if she were walking on thin ice.

The wind in the field is stronger, and it is not at all like the warm breeze of spring. Heaven and earth suddenly changed color, roaring and roaring, rolling up dust and sand, engulfing her figure. The rain is like a knife, as if it wants to cut Zhao Yu.

She tried her best to move forward, but she couldn't get to her grandmother, the earth cracked, and the hot lava rolled in the canyon like the open jaws of a monster.

Zhao watched as her grandmother fell into the lava and turned into starlight, surging towards her like fireflies.

She reached out to grab it, spread it out again, but there was nothing but nothingness.

When I woke up, there was only one light in the house. Probably suffering from the cold, Zhao Yu was weak and weak, woke up in a daze, and saw the strange room for a moment of confusion.

She got up and put down the covers, pushed the door open, and exited.

Hearing this, Jian Ning turned around: "Miss Zhao, why are you awake?" ”

Zhao Yu asked, "What time is it?" ”

"You've only slept for two quarters of an hour." Yin Ning said.

The night was too long.

Zhao Yu leaned weakly on the handrail and sat down on the steps.

It was drizzling outside the corridor.

Yin Ning wanted to persuade her to go in, but when she saw her shrunken and delicate figure under the light of a bean's lamp, she was silent for a moment and stood silently behind her.

As the day dawned, the sound of horses' hooves could finally be heard outside the village.

Zhao Yu didn't sleep all night, heard the sound of horses' hooves, his spirit was lifted, he stood up suddenly, and looked anxiously in the direction of the return of the team, and his heart suddenly hung in his throat.

When Yin Ning saw Yu Linlang returning, he chuckled in his heart, and had a bad premonition.

Through the rain curtain, Zhao Yu saw Yu Linlang, who was taking the lead, with a solemn face. She couldn't hear what they were saying, and her fingers clenched at the pillars.

The nails snapped and snapped, and bright red blood beads appeared.

She didn't notice it.

"Miss Zhao." Yin Ning returned to the porch, looking at Zhao Yu's delicate and trembling body, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and the words he wanted to say were choked in his throat.

"My grandma is back, isn't she?" Zhao Yu looked at Yin Ning expectantly.

Jian Ning turned his head away and avoided Zhao Yu's gaze.

Zhao Yu suddenly turned around, broke into the rain, and ran in the direction of the village entrance.

Anxiety exhausted her strength, and she sat all night, and the cold rain poured down on her, and her whole body fell like a dead leaf in the rain.

"She sought charms on thousands of peaks, the mountain road was steep, and she accidentally fell into the canyon." Yin Ning said.

For a moment, Zhao Yu's whole person seemed to be frozen, motionless.

After a moment, she looked up blankly.

Through the faint light of the fire, I saw the drizzle flying. The rain and fog are misty, and the grass and trees are swaying in the wind.

The wind of dawn was cold and cold to the cheeks.

The eyes were hot, the water blurred the vision, the tears suddenly couldn't stop, and the big drops rolled down.

His chest seemed to be choked by something, and Zhao Yu couldn't breathe, so he had to let out one mournful scream after another.

"Girl, you mourn." Yin Ning squatted down and whispered comfort. The marcher was not in the habit of holding an umbrella, so he could only do his best to raise his cloak to keep her out of the rain.

The rain still fell on her through the warp and weft of the fabric.

At this moment, a figure dressed in moon-white and warm as jade walked out of the darkness.

The chaotic farmhouse courtyard was quiet for a moment because of Li Wenjian's appearance.

Yin Ning turned his head to see Li Wenjian, got up and walked towards him, and was about to salute, when Li Wenjian raised his hand to stop his movements.

Li Wenjian looked at the courtyard, and Zhao's slender and thin body trembled in the dense rain curtain.

After Yu Linwei found Grandma Zhao, the soldiers divided into three routes, and galloped back to the palace all the way to explain the matter to Li Wenjian.

An hour earlier, he had received the news.

After standing for a moment, he slowly walked towards Zhaoyun.

She looked up, he looked down, and the raindrops fell from the edge of the umbrella, ticking.

Li Wenjian stretched out his hand to her and asked her in a calm and deep voice, "Can you get up?" ”

Zhao Yu hung her head weakly, crying heartbreakingly, ten years of wandering, she finally became a homeless little girl.

Li Wenjian didn't embarrass her, holding an umbrella in one hand, squatting beside her, and shielding her from the wind and rain.
