The fiery clouds on the horizon seemed to ignite the entire sky.

Pinching the small note stuffed into the palm of his hand, Xie Ci and Gu Wan glanced at each other, panicking in their hearts.

Gu Wan was worried that the words of the tiger and wolf would teach the children badly, while Xie Ci was worried about messy things such as "female freshman, hugging the golden rooster", "sister of the same year, everything is comfortable".

The two hurriedly opened it to take a look, but fortunately, they were very serious.

"Xiaosi is a stubborn child, he loves to drill the horns, Yuan Niang, you have to comfort him more and mention him more. No matter how much hatred there is, no one matters. ”

"Don't be too reluctant, just do your best and be worthy of your heart."

is different from Xie Er's sister-in-law's vigorous and resolute weekdays, this thin hairpin flower is as beautiful and graceful as a trickle of water.

Imitation under a dim yellow lamp, fine reminders.

Both breathed a sigh of relief.

Xie Ci picked up the penny, a little embankment, the small boat swayed along the current, and went to the heart of the river, he glanced at Gu Wan, and explained carefully: "The second sister-in-law just loves to make fun of me, don't bother with her." ”

The autumn sun has been dyed a little cool, the river breeze is swaying across the water, Xie Ci's clothes are flying in the hunt, it may be a little unbelievable to say it, Gu Wan is a little like a pillar to him.

In times of despair, a little light.

Xie Ci will never forget the hands that shook him in the high fever of prison, and split a crack in his feverish and chaotic mind.

He stumbled and escaped death with her support.

In the heavy snow, he couldn't hold on several times, but because there was another person by his side, he finally gritted his teeth and survived.

He didn't know if he should complain about his second sister-in-law, since she said those words, he and her have not always gotten along as naturally as before, and a little bit of a loss, occasionally he would flash a thought, if he knew her well before, took her to play together, and didn't say those bastard words on the wedding night, then, wouldn't it ......

Xie Ci is ignorant of the truth, but he is not a fool, he has never eaten pork and has seen a pig run, he actually understands what Xie Er's sister-in-law means.

But there are no ifs for everything.

She didn't like him.

Making such a joke will make him feel that he has tarnished the relationship between the two.

"I'm sorry."

Gu Wan stood on the bow of the boat, he looked up at her slightly, and the golden sunset cast a halo on her body.

He is not afraid of death, he is afraid of exhausting his strength to die, but he cannot achieve his long-cherished wish of revenge.

But with Gu Wan by his side, he settled a lot at once.

He whispered, "Don't pay attention to the second sister-in-law's nonsense. ”

Fortunately, Gu Wan didn't care, she was surprised: "What are you sorry for, what is this?" ”

The wind brought her voice, and she smiled, picking up the messy dispersion of the wind with one hand, and her voice was loud and crisp.

Xie Ci couldn't help but feel light, and he said, "Hmm! ”

After thanking for a while, he suddenly remembered something: "When this matter is over, I will go to pick up your mother and your brother." No, it's better to write a letter to the second sister-in-law when you go back, and when the family is stable and you can free your hands, you will hire a dart bureau to go back to Zhongdu. ”

Xie Ci said, I feel that it has been too long, and the future is uncertain, it is safer to write the second sister-in-law of the trust.

Gu Guan: "......"

Damn, I didn't mention it, she almost forgot about it.

The original owner didn't have many relatives, but his mother didn't die, and he had a half-brother. After defecting to the Zhongyong Mansion, she met her first love, talked for a while, and decided to remarry, but the original owner refused to follow and continued to stay in the Xie family.

As for why the original owner was in prison and didn't see her to take care of it, it was because the stepfather of the original owner was also a scumbag, and as soon as something happened to the Zhongyong Mansion, he divorced his wife and kicked his mother out.

encountered two scumbags in a row, and the second one was inquired by Mrs. Xun and persuaded her not to marry, but she still wanted to marry.

Gu Wan didn't know what to say, anyway, when he inquired about the Xie family, he heard this story of Chen Shimei by the way, the mother and son are currently living in a small village in the suburbs, and they are plummeting but they have food and shelter.

She scratched her head, "Okay, then you write." But don't worry, you must tell the second sister-in-law, three years and five years is not too late, there is no big deal, just wait for me to go back and take care of it, anyway, safety is the best. ”

When it came to this love-brained mother, Gu Wan was speechless, but it was not appropriate to care about it, and finally thought about it.

The thanks, written down one by one, and finally he said to Gu Wan seriously: "I will take care of them." Just like sister-in-law Daming them. ”

Gu Wan sighed: "Okay, thank you." ”

Xie Ci pursed his lips and shook his head, no, "No thanks." ”

Compared to what you did for me and for the Xie family, it is not worth mentioning at all.

……

The river breeze blew the boat to the passenger ship parked in the middle of the river.

A hook rope was thrown down from the passenger ship, and the bow of the boat was snapped with a "click", and then the rope ladder was lowered.

Gu Wan's resignation was the latest batch, and as soon as he went up, he heard the boss of the boat shouting, "Prepare to start the boat!" ”

The bamboo raft boats were pulled into a string and swayed to the shore, the iron anchors were on the water, and the sails were raised.

The red of the sunset contrasts with the darkness of the twilight, and the side of the ship rows through the sparkling water, looking south.

The evening boat that Xie Ci and Gu Wan took will go south down the river to tomorrow daytime, and will be diverted to the west, and a few days later the waterway will be transferred to the land route and go straight to the northwest.

The sky has turned dark, and the figures on the wharf by the big river soon turned into small black dots, and in the darkness, I saw the sound of poplar leaves and flowing water on both sides of the wind blowing.

As soon as the boat moved, the noise and warmth on the boat when he said goodbye were also stripped away, the river breeze blew cold all over the body, Xie Ci and Gu Wan raised their eyes and looked into the distance, but the small pier was soon no longer visible.

The people on the deck left in twos and threes, and the large cabin of the passenger ship was bustling and noisy, but the rear deck was very quiet, and Xie Ci still held the small note in his hand.

Second sister-in-law Xie earnestly admonished him, all about him.

There was only a little residual red left in the sky, reflected on the nose bridge and cheekbones of the two, and Xie Ci looked at it several times, and finally he said: "However, I want to disappoint my second sister-in-law and mother-in-law." ”

His vocal cords had been injured, and his voice was a little hoarse, especially at the moment, as if the bow of a cello was rubbing through.

With a little sad song.

"I'm going to avenge my father and brother, and I'm going to avenge them."

Xie Ciqi's long, thin figure was backed by light, and it was dark.

- In the blink of an eye, it was the late autumn of the year, and he had grown a lot taller, and he was almost seventeen years old.

His sleeves were tightly tied, and his waist was equipped with a slender sharp knife, and when he said this, the warmth between his eyebrows faded, and finally revealed a kind of hatred!

Except for Gu Guan, everyone didn't know his plans.

The father and brother's voice and smile are vivid, and in the end, they ended up being scolded by the people in a different place.

"I want to find out."

"I hope to overturn the case for my father and brother."

"If not, I'll kill them all!"

If someone frames him, he will kill him, and if he is a traitor, he will kill a traitor, whether it is in the army or in the court.

The enmity of father and brother is overturned, and the sky is not shared!

Thanking him and turning back, the evening breeze stirred his long hair, and he said word by word: "I want them to pay for their blood debts!" ”

When he was at home, he hid half of it, otherwise, neither his mother nor his sister-in-law would agree to him going out.

But he'd rather die than live!

Gu Wan understood him, and before going out, he had already told her in private, so she was not surprised, "You must be able to!" ”

"One person counts short, two people count long, let's work together, maybe we will be able to find out soon."

"Hmm."

Gu Guan's tone slowed down and relaxed, with a little briskness, as if this was not too difficult, Xie Ci's heart tensed and the string couldn't help but loosen, he looked down at the small note in his hand, and folded it and put it in the inner pocket of his body.

The two of them turned around and walked briskly down the narrow gangway to the cabin on the second floor.

The boat ticket includes rice, and a kid carries it up and distributes it one by one, although the two have eaten, but they have experienced the previous days of starvation, no one wasted it, and the coarse tea and light rice also sat down and ate again.

The hatch was closed, Gu Wan pushed the window open, noticed that there was no situation, and asked thanks, "If we go west, then where are we going?" ”

To go west to west, there is always a specific location.

In other words, where and where do you want to start with Xie Ci, and what are the goals or clues?

Speaking of this, after a pause, he put down the wooden chopsticks, and after a while, he said, "Suzhou." ”

The sunset finally dissipated, the dark red disappeared, and his eyes were as deep as the dreary twilight, and he said slowly, "At the beginning, the twelve generals also pointed out that my father and brother were collaborators. There are also six of them, who are my father's henchmen. ”

His voice was hoarse.

Otherwise, the "evidence is not conclusive" so quickly.

Therefore, even those who were skeptical among the people suddenly believed it. The Xie family was nailed to the pillar of shame all of a sudden. The more famous the martyrs of the past generations grew, the more they were reviled and scolded.

However, Xie Ci clearly knew that his father and brother would never collaborate with the enemy!!

There was a "crackle", and the wooden chopsticks under his hand were broken into two pieces by him.

In just about 20 words, Rao is Gu Wan has already been mentally prepared, and he is also thrilling to hear.

She was silent for a long time and said, "Okay, then let's go to Suzhou." ”

……

These twelve generals and six confidants, one of them is Xun Qingbi, the governor of Suzhou, who thanked him.

Xie Ci didn't even say anything about this matter, so as not to make her sad.

He took it all alone.

Xie Ci touched the small note in the inner pocket, he took it out and looked at it again and again, before he felt a little better in his heart.

The two rested that night, and at dawn the next day, the passenger ship had arrived in Pizhou, turned to the northwest direction, and after arriving in Qinzhou, the two changed the water route to the land route and went straight to the direction of Suzhou.

It is worth mentioning that the two met Li Yi.

On the Qinzhou dock, the other party was waiting for him.

Xie Ci was the first to find this person, frowned, and the other party came down from the second floor of the tavern with a horsewhip: "Xie Ci, you and I are people who have the same disease, how can I help you?" ”

Goodbye Li Yi, the other party is no longer secretly traveling, the two guards brought the stagecoach to the post house, but they didn't see Yu Yanzhen.

Li Yi really appreciated the thanks, not for anything else, but for this person, and his willingness to take him back under his command was unprecedentedly strong.

So he asked the stand-in to lead the team on the road first, and he waited for more than half a month in this necessary way.

Gu Wan glanced at Li Yi, looked up, and sure enough, he met a pair of obscure eyes in the window on the second floor.

She snorted inwardly.

Xie Ci looked Li Yi up and down, vigilant and guarded, and coldly refused: "No need." ”

After saying that, he pulled Gu Wan on the horse, and the two of them whipped up and quickly left the Qinzhou dock.

The sound of hooves quickly faded away, "Master? ”

Li Yi raised his hand to stop, "Let's go." ”

It's useless to be in a hurry.

He smiled: "Sooner or later, he will find out that he needs me." ”

Yu Yanzhen rushed down quickly, she stared at Gu Wan's distant back, Li Yi looked over, and she immediately looked back and retracted her gaze.

"Get on the horse."

The wind blew the face, Li Yi straightened his sleeves, turned over and jumped on the horse, he was not disappointed, this long and deep young man looked ahead.

Next, he still focuses on what he is doing first.

……

Gu Wan looked back, the horse's hooves rolled up the dust, and the four horses looked west.

Only then did he slowly pull the reins.

"Let's go over there."

Although the other party didn't seem to have the intention of informing, and he secretly went out of Beijing to rob the prisoner obviously with pigtails, this Li Yi probably guessed that he was not angry, and after the two children recovered from their injuries, they would definitely go to the northwest soon, so they waited for someone on the way to the transit.

But his appearance still made Xie Ci very vigilant, and he said coldly: "These people appeared out of thin air to refer to the Xie family, with ill intentions. ”

Gu Wan didn't have any opinions, so the two went around in a big circle and went to Mingzhou first. After staying for a few days, I went to Suzhou again.

After repeatedly making sure that no one was following, Xie Ci's frowning brows were slightly relaxed.

By the time the two arrived in Suzhou, it was late autumn.

It was noon, the autumn sun was blazing, but the wind was already chilling, and the vast yellow grass and the boundless wilderness were connected all the way to the end of the sky.

The northwest scenery is rough, the post road seems to be a little rough, and the two followed the back of the dart team, and finally saw Suzhou City from afar.

The brown city wall is next to the ground, the arrow tower stands majestic, the border town is tightly garrisoned, far away, and the first refusal to set up a card inspection began, and the dart head of the dart bureau is familiar with the way to pull the team over, and rank at the end of the team.

Xie Ci was riding on a horse, Gu Wan was sitting at the back of the cart, and Xie Ci said slowly: "The person who took the white silk that day, I know him, he is one of the guards of my second cousin Xun Xun. ”

It's about the murder of the sick prisoner in the Iron Gate Temple at the beginning.

A very inconspicuous person, the number of generals and guards is as small as dozens, Xie Ci and Xun Xun are actually not familiar with each other, especially the personal guards, but one year during the Chinese New Year, the other party returned to Beijing with his brother to report on his father's work, and came to the Zhongyong Mansion to visit, he saw this person.

is such a shocking supporting role, you may not believe it when you say it, but you just remember him.

It was noon, the autumn sun was blazing, Xie Ci was wearing a bamboo hat, his face was shrouded in the shadow of the bamboo hat, from Gu Guan's angle, Xie Ci's eyes could be faintly seen, and there was a faint circle of patterns around the ink-colored pupils, and there was a faint shadow of heavy pupils.

It's very beautiful, and it has a sense of roses blooming at night.

Gu Wan knew that this was true, Xie Ci was very talented, including the sense of smell, he was super powerful in the book, his eyes were injured, but with his sense of smell alone, he remembered the taste of the person who was on his back, and then with this clue, he was finally able to restore the truth many years later.

This Xun Xun is one of the big villains, and he was quite mixed up, and was later killed by Xie Ci with a sword.

thanked the court for saving the people, but he was by no means a good man and a woman.

Unforgettable hatred and hatred, the collapse of the dynasty, should be the beginning of revenge.

Gu Wan whispered: "Let's be careful, this Suzhou is their Xun family's territory." ”

Xie Ci's ink-colored glass-colored eyes reflected the red tassels of the long knife handle in his arms, the edge of his pupils was a little dark red, and his voice was a little hoarse: "I know." ”

……

The dart head in front beckoned, and Xie Ci and a few dart masters beside him drove their horses to the front to help.

The dry cold wind was blowing slowly, blowing the sideburns, Gu Wan leaned against the fence of the cart, put the long sword on the back of the car, and gently turned its hilt.

This is the one given to her by Xie Er's sister-in-law.

She likes this sword, it is polished and polished, the scabbard of the hilt is polished and shiny, reflecting the blue sky like the sea, the golden sun is sparkling, she looks up, the sun is a little dazzling, but the unpolluted sky is extraordinarily vast, and you can clearly see the connection between the sky and the earth.

This time, although there was danger, she was not very afraid, but was a little eager to try it, and felt that it was very meaningful. Even if there is no Yu Yanzhen.

Does this count as Kuang Fu Zhongliang?

What a damn sense of justice!

She was amused by herself, and suddenly remembered that someone once said to her: "You, you, people are out, but the heart is still there." ”

Thinking of the person who smiled slightly, Gu Wan smiled.

After a while, she exhaled, picked up the long sword and buckled it back to her waist, and jumped out of the car and followed Xie Ci forward quickly.

Together, they untied the hemp rope of the dart cart one by one, opened the box, and the soldiers after rejecting the horse checked it one by one, and then let it go and move forward.

Thank you Gu Wan's current identity is a temporary dart master, and the two of them are not short of entanglements now, but in order to cover up.

After stopping three times in a row, after three rounds of big cards, the two finally stepped into the city of Suzhou.

Gu Wan had previously told him to be careful with his thanks-by Xun Xun can be pushed, this Xun father and son are not a simple character.

Especially Xie Ci's uncle Xun Rongbi, it is unknown how powerful he is, but it can be seen that he instructed his son to poison Xie Ci, and he is definitely a ruthless and vicious man.

Now that the enemy is strong and I am weak, we must be careful.

It's just that the two of them just entered Suzhou City, but they soon heard an incredible news.

Xie Ci was stunned: "You say, Governor Xun Rongbi Xun has been seriously ill since June last year?" Xun Dagongzi is dead?! ”

Xiao Er stacked up the dishes and chopsticks and said, "Yes, we have a Governor Xun in Suzhou." Since the death of Xun in June last year, Governor Xun accidentally fell off his horse and was injured when he heard the bad news, and he was seriously ill, it is said that he is not very good, and he has been recuperating. ”

Gu Wan snorted, and the pickle jar he was holding fell off: "Really fake?" ”

Xiao Er stopped doing it: "What are you lying about!" Such a big event, at that time, Governor Xun fell from his horse on the way back to the Governor's Mansion in the camp, and there were many people who saw it, and there were many people who saw it regardless of whether the eldest prince Xun was buried or buried, and you can find what you witnessed with your own eyes if you look for it. ”

Gu Wan hurriedly read the thanks.

The wind through the hall blows the navy blue curtain, and there is a wisp of thanksgiving hanging down from the bamboo hat, moving slightly with the wind.

He slowly raised his head, and the cold ink pupils reflected Gu Wan's incredible eyes.

Xie Ci's eyebrows, which had been tense since he approached Suzhou City, were instantly raised.
