Gu Wan almost fell asleep with a pillow, but Xie Ci couldn't sleep.

It's not just because of these dilemmas.

The green smoke curled, and he looked at the spiritual seat written "Xie Men Xinchenggong, Zi Xiao, Zi Long, Zi Yuan" in the small hall of the house, and stood for a long time before returning to the east chamber to strip and lie down.

It's just that for a long time, he still didn't feel sleepy.

Since the family change, Xie Ci's sleep has not been very good, many days and nights, he has been tossing and turning in pain, and it is difficult to sleep.

The same is true today.

He simply got up and changed into his middle coat.

Unconsciously, the night has come, the night is as cold as water, the small courtyard is silent, he pulled out the long knife, the scabbard fell to the ground, the handle of the knife was tight, and the snow color of the knife was like a white refining, sinking like an abyss, and cold as frost and snow.

In the end, he put aside the long knife, lifted a solid wooden pole leaning against the courtyard wall, practiced the spear, shook his arm, and the long pole stabbed out, "Tuk Tuk Tuk", and left five deep plum blossom prints on the yellow wall!

The strength runs through a thousand jun, and the momentum is like a rainbow.

Xie Ci was always afraid that he was not capable enough, so he had been practicing hard for more than half a year, and he had never been willing to slack off.

Stepping into Suzhou City, the depression in my heart is more like substance, and a knife and a gun are all vented between these arms.

Hot sweat dripped down his back, soaking through the thin middle clothes on his body, and he didn't feel cold when the cold wind blew, until he found that there was movement in Gu Guan's room, and he gasped and stopped.

It was already in the middle of the moon, and the silver cold moonlight fell silently in the small courtyard, and the young man breathed like fire, his eyes were full of hatred.

Gu Wan pretended not to see it, smiled at him, she went to the kitchen to take out the steamed buns in the pot, nibbled one herself, and threw the rest to him.

"I'm sleeping, you can sleep too."

"Hmm."

This is not the first time that she has practiced at night, Gu Wan can understand him, but it's okay, her stomach is a bottomless pit at this age, and she prepared a supper for him.

With a "babbling", the door of the west chamber closed, followed by the sound of kicking and tapping and lying down to cover the quilt.

Xie Ci took the cotton bag and finally put down the long pole in his hand.

The night wind was cold, but he was hot, and he gasped as he slowly looked up at the familiar and unfamiliar surroundings.

The northwest wind is rough, the small courtyard window sill brick wall tile roof is always covered with a layer of sand, here can see the city wall, he knows that standing at the head of the city in this season, looking at the long loess.

He was born and raised in the capital, born in the best time of the Xie family, his father always thought that he was dyed with the prosperity of Kyoto, and wanted to discipline him, Xie Ci had been to the border three times.

The short is five or six months, and the longest is three years.

When he first came, his father gave him a stern lecture and made him run in circles around the school yard, which made him angry and angry, and his father pointed at him with a slender bamboo whip and said sharply: "For the general! Remember to guard against anger and anger! ”

"Calm down, don't let anger affect your emotions and mind at any time on the battlefield!"

Xie Ci thought that if it were at this moment, the old man would probably say: "Don't let hatred affect your emotions and mind!" ”

After a while, he reached out and touched his chest, there used to be a very small jade jue, it was a peach shape, he had a big temper since he was a child, he often talked back to his father, and loved to eat peaches, the eldest brother smiled and hung this cool little peach on his chest, touched his head and smiled and said: "Little four little four, touch this when you are angry." ”

Before leaving, his mother touched his hair over and over again and told him to take care of himself.

Xie Ci's heart was astringent, and he thought over and over again, and the blood that was rushing and screaming as if it was about to break through the veins finally slowly eased.

When he felt better and felt that he had regained his composure, he cleaned the courtyard with thanks, scooped cold water and poured his body on it, and then carried a cotton bag and a long knife into the room.

Just before entering the door, Yu Guang saw the dark lights in the west wing, he stood for a moment, and couldn't help but think of Gu Guan.

He and Gu Wan were not very familiar with each other before, but now they are the closest people.

recalled the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.

The red light is hung high, half of the city is happy, the young husband and wife, and the high hall worships.

And that time when he got married, it was the last time he and his father saw each other.

Taste the love of parents for their children, and have far-reaching plans.

Today, I finally feel it deeply.

It's a pity it's too late.

My father is gone.

On every lonely night, Xie Ci is not without remorse, this is the wife that his parents hired for him, because he was not good, and did not keep her.

He was ashamed of his parents, especially his father, who had been separated forever.

is even more ashamed of Gu Guan, because of those bastard words at the beginning.

She did not hesitate to support, and the two of them traveled thousands of miles, so that today he recalls the words of the young and formless bastard, and he is ashamed.

……

Closed the door and lay back on the bed, the courtyard rustled, and Gu Wan sighed in his heart.

Reading the book, I only know that Xie Ci is a representative of the thirty years of Hedong and the thirty years of Hexi, and don't bully the poor youth.

But only when he has experienced these things can he know how unimaginable the hardships he is experiencing at the moment.

Huh.

……

When I woke up the next morning, the morning light had already spread the branches, and the entire city of Suzhou was bathed in the autumn morning sun.

Gu Wan didn't know if Xie Ci slept last night, but he couldn't see anything on his face anyway.

It's just that his expression is two points more gloomy than before.

The closer he got to Suzhou City, the less good his mood became.

It's just that when the two were together, he faded away from grief and indignation, leaving only sadness.

The two of them locked the door directly and went to the street to settle breakfast.

Gu Wan didn't ask anything, but took the initiative to say thank you: "Yuan Niang, I'm sorry." ”

He looked up at her, his frosty rosy eyes filled with an indescribable apology, and he apologized for his own bastard words in the marriage room.

After going through all kinds of things in the world, I know how precious the hand stretched out in prison is.

Gu Wan was a little surprised, but she quickly said, "It's okay, don't care." ”

The original owner didn't blame him.

She did not regret marrying him until the moment she died.

Let her have the identity of a housewife as a home.

The stall owner brought two bowls of steaming noodles, she broke the wooden chopsticks and gave him a pair, and after eating half a bowl of noodles, she thought for a while: "Thank you, what kind of person is your uncle?" ”

Refer to the past and then judge, after all, one person should not be able to pretend for more than ten years.

Speaking of this, Xie Ci showed a little hesitation, and after a while, he said slowly: "My uncle, he has treated us very well since he was a child. ”

How good is it?

"Like a half-father."

Before Xie Xinxin was in charge of the entire Jingsui defense line and the commander-in-chief of Northern Xinjiang, he and Xun Rongbi happened to be one on the side and the other in Beijing.

When Xie Xinxin was absent, Xun Rongbi took the position of uncle on his father's behalf, and he would also be so angry by Xie Ci that he hurriedly cleaned up the mess, but he was also serious and taught Xie Ci a lot of principles of life.

Find a martial arts master for him, with a knife and a gun, and teach him how to make contributions on the battlefield in the future.

It is called the half-father, and the weight can be seen.

Gu Wan was a little surprised.

She looked at the thanks, and the young man's eyebrows and eyes were heavy, as if he was pressing a lot of heavy things, which made her feel a little heavier.

Gu Wan sighed.

No wonder he couldn't sleep last night.

However, she didn't continue to dwell on this topic, and thought to herself: "Why don't we prepare the makeup powder first, and find two suitable deputy soldiers to take it down tonight?" ”

Xun Rongbi's time is running out.

The ancients knew how to evade, and if they could hint at the future in the audit, it would really be a matter of the past few days.

There wasn't much time left for the thanks, and their preparations had to be done in advance.

Needless to say, then.

Gu Wan picked up the noodles in both mouthfuls, dropped a few big coins and pulled up his thanks, "Let's go!" ”

Gu Wan walked like the wind, pulled the thank you and went straight to the north and south streets, first took advantage of the morning market, surveyed the current situation of the outer defense of the Governor's Palace, and when the flow of people gradually thinned out at noon, they looked for and buy the makeup powder and other things that Gu Wan needed in the Fang Market.

After that, the two went straight back to the small courtyard.

At this time, a day has passed, twilight is four, Gu Wan listens attentively, the faint laughter of silk and bamboo next door has already come, and there is a faint faint fragrance of fat powder floating.

She whispered, "Let's go over." ”

……

The so-called deputy army.

A kind of military branch that has no establishment, mainly engaged in logistical auxiliary work, and the people who transport grain in wartime are also subordinate to the army.

The Governor's Mansion also has a deputy army, who is responsible for assisting the Governor's Palace guards, filling in absenteeism when necessary, serving as a reserve manpower, etc., their barracks are in the back alley of the Governor's Palace, and there are also waist cards to enter and exit the perimeter of the Governor's Palace every day.

It is generally used to place the sacrifice of non-commissioned officers and is not suitable for the army, which is fat and idle, but the owners of each house will generally stuff some relatives into it.

Gu Wan and Xie Ci discussed on the way, how can they blend into the Governor's Mansion or the army if necessary?

Xie Ci was very familiar with the structure of the army, and immediately talked about this deputy army.

As long as he entered the gate of the Doge's Palace, he had a way.

"Whether you want to go in or not, let's open up this channel first!"

The Governor's Palace was heavily guarded, and she had seen it from afar.

Temporary emergency, fortunately, there is a hole to exploit that Xie Yu knows, otherwise it will be really tricky.

There wasn't much time available for thanks, but Gu Wan didn't ask.

Standing under the wall and nibbling on two buns to fill her stomach, she propped up the wall with her hand and pulled the thank you over the next door.

This small courtyard is specially rented by them, and next door is a secret prostitute, a very high-end kind.

Several large mansions have opened their own doors and built pavilions and pavilions such as Jiangnan Water Town. Red gauze lanterns, nine-curved covered bridges, each dressed as a young woman and girl of a good family, the head of the fan is in or enjoying the flowers or appreciating the water, playing the piano and painting, as if at home, the prostitutes walk around the mansion, and they can come forward to meet if they see it, of course, they don't like to engage in literary crepe and crepe directly, this Suzhou border town garrison place, many military masters do not have this patience.

On weekdays, military discipline prostitutes. Prostitutes, but not the vice-army.

After entering, Xie Ci made a difficulty, and the method was no problem, but it was a bit difficult to operate how to take people down, because in addition to the house where the errands were done, the nine-curved covered bridge was bright and shaking, and it was impossible to start.

Gu Wan couldn't help but smile, "Look at me!" ”

Xie Ci followed her into a water pavilion, he was looking at the wind, Gu Wan was pounding his face, hearing the rustling of clothes, he was lightning, for some reason, he suddenly remembered the scene in prison - she dressed him and checked the wound, and stripped him naked, including his underwear and dirty pants.

Rao is thankful mood was heavy, and at this moment, his whole body couldn't help but burn, and the blood rushed straight to the heavenly spirit cover from his whole body, and he wasted a lot of strength before he reached out to cover somewhere.

“…… Okay, no, someone's coming! ”

It was the target, and several lieutenants walked in from the Moon Gate with their helmets in one hand, laughing, and it was this corridor that they walked.

Gu Wan leaned on Xie Ci's back and stretched out his head to look, ", there's only one left!" ”

As soon as she pulled away the thanks, she spun around and flashed out.

Xie Ci saw her appearance clearly, wearing a red gauze silk half-arm skirt, a thin red gauze draped over the white collarbone, a fallen bun coiled on the sideburns, burgundy makeup delicate and charming, a red rose in her mouth, at first glance, charming and charming.

Xie Ci couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Gu Wan wanted to use him as a prop, holding his waist with one hand, and Xie Ci immediately froze.

And the young man in his twenties, who had fine skin and tender flesh and obviously walked through the back door to enter the deputy army, had no intention of sweeping it, and immediately froze, his bored expression changed, and he immediately pushed and hugged the green shirt fan next to him, "You go!" ”

He ran and pounced, and then was hugged by Gu Wan, turned into the house, and with a snort, twisted his willow waist and ran to other targets.

Gu Guan, who appeared in shock, had already pushed the young man into the house to cover the door, in the dark room, there was a faint sound, this person was shocked and struggled violently, thanked Gu Wan one after the other, and held him tightly, Gu Wan quickly took out a handkerchief and covered the other party's mouth and nose for about a minute, and put the person down intact.

Xie Ci let go of his hand and slowly placed the person on the ground.

The faint sound of clouds and rain in the small hall next door is the real owner of this water pavilion, the moonlight shines into this narrow makeup room, the young man lies silently, Xie Ci coldly looked at the familiar and unfamiliar Suzhou military uniform on his body, and finally revealed a kind of bitter hatred.

He has always remained calm, even if Gu Wan knew that he was in a bad mood, he tried his best to contain it, and he didn't show it in front of her at all.

But at this moment, he heard Gu Wan sigh softly, and put a hand on his shoulder.

He raised his head, trying his best to suppress the violent surging emotions, and his cold star-like eyes were red and bloodshot.

Gu Guan's almond eyes were still painted with bright red eye makeup, and the peony flowers bloomed little by little at the corners of her eyes, but her eyes were clear and clear, "I want to tell you that even if I die in Tieling, I will not regret it." ”

"Because the Xie family is the best and best family in this world. Qingshan is fortunate to bury the bones of loyalty, and Tanlang is a good man. ”

She told him what the original owner was saying.

Not for love, but for a sincere reverence.

In this world, even if they die, that is, they die with a crime, there are always people who remember them, and not everyone will be blinded.

She said softly: "They have protected the country and the dynasty for 30 years, and someone will remember them!" ”

This moment.

As if he had been hit by something, his heart was suffocated and sour, and he knelt on the ground with thanks, he tried his best to endure it, covering his face with his hands, but tears rained down.

He couldn't stop crying.

……

The thank-you finally cried.

A hoarse cry came from the trembling body.

But after crying, Xie Ci quickly stood up: "Yuan Niang, I have decided, I want to enter the Governor's Palace." ”

His voice was hoarse but his eyes were extremely determined: "I want to see, is it him or not?!" ”

Xie Ci was still on guard, but he really wanted to know if his uncle, who had been like a half-father since he was a child, had any intention of framing their Xie family to death!

From childhood to adulthood, Zhenzhen was loving, and came thousands of miles to visit Mrs. Xun, is the brother and sister love with a generous background true or false?

Moreover, the most important point is that Suzhou is the place where he has stayed for three years, not only is it the most familiar, but it is also the first place where the "Lantian Collaboration with the Enemy Case" was launched, if the gap cannot be opened here, it will only be more difficult in other places.

Since he came, he was not afraid of death.

Even if this Governor's Mansion is a tiger's den in Longtan, he must break through today!

The makeup pavilion was dark, the moonlight was silent, the sparkling water was reflected on the cheekbones of the bridge of Xie Ci's nose, and his eyes were still bloodshot, but his eyes and demeanor had become firm.

It's like a tightly pulled bowstring that has returned to its proper level of tension.

tight, but not overloaded.

After the thank-you speech.

Gu Wan immediately said: "Okay! ”

In the past few days, she has seen that the thank you words are getting tighter and tighter, looking at the purse notes over and over again, and her emotions are pressed tightly, if this doesn't work, something will happen sooner or later.

Many times, people are not crushed by others, but crushed to death by themselves.

Seeing that he finally came out of a tense state, Gu Wan smiled a little, it was really in vain for her to see the right time.

Gu Wan was also very happy for him, the choice of thanks, the choice of thanks, and her tendency, she took out a delicate buckle, a silver spherical pendant, she took out the two notes in his purse, folded them into stars and put them in the buckle, closed them, "Wear it, don't look at it, look at the hair." ”

Xie Yu nodded vigorously.

Gu Wan said: "If he is a good one, we will save him, and we will not live up to him and ourselves." ”

"If not, there's nothing to regret."

A narrow road that could have foreseen all kinds of difficulties and obstacles.

With the power of one person, not two people, how can it be so easy to set off a final national case?

She finally brought him the necklace, "Uncle and cousin will bless us!" ”

She said with a smile, the moonlight and water were intertwined, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were as clear as water, at this moment, she was like a pioneer and like a close friend, smiling and slowing down her tone earnestly.

Just like the river flowing under the moon, Pingning is thick and natural.

Xie Ci held the silver ball buckle under his neck, he looked at the smiling face in front of him, and for a moment, he felt that the hot blood was surging from his limbs to his heart.

Xie Ci nodded heavily: "Hmm! ”

He clenched the knife in his hand: "If he lies to me, I'll kill him!!" ”

His heart was surging, and he couldn't help but hug Gu Wan hard, some words are really not suitable to say again, but, thank you.

It's true.

Xie Ci restrained himself from hugging too tightly, and his hands were clenched into fists.

Gu Wan smiled and patted him on the back.

Boy, rise up!
