A tall young man in the crowd, this is Bai Sheng's son Bai Qi, the current head of the Bai family, there are twenty eight this year, and he has followed Bai Sheng to learn the art of war and tactics since he was a child, and his attainments are quite profound.

The Bai family has a total of seven sons, Bai Qi ranks sixth, and the rest fight with Bai Sheng on the battlefield, five brothers are dead and one is disabled, and the middle-aged man in the crowd who is in a wheelchair and has two strands of long hair is Bai Ting, ranking fourth.

If it weren't for Bai Ting blocking the knife that slashed at the key point for Bai Sheng on the battlefield, Bai Sheng would not be standing here now.

"Why are you crying for me here? Our Bai family's face has been lost by you!"

A break from the cry stopped, and a gray-haired old woman separated from everyone and came to the front of the people with the support of two maids, her eyes were like torches, looking at everyone, "Our descendants of the Bai family have been in the army for generations, life and death are ordinary things, you have only been locked up for a few days, and you are just crying here, following the example of the village woman, and putting the face of our Bai family." ”

This old woman is Bai Sheng's wife, Liu Lao Taijun, who was once named Mrs. Command, and is also a heroine, who fought on the battlefield with General Bai in her early years, and is also a heroine.

The old woman naturally had a kind of awe-inspiring majesty in her.

The daughters stopped crying, and the eldest daughter-in-law stepped forward and said, "Mother, it's the daughters-in-law's fault, please punish your mother." ”

Mrs. Liu shook her head, "You're right, it's the Bai family who is sorry for you, let's go, don't let people laugh at us here." ”

A group of people helped them out and slowly disappeared into the street.

The Bai Mansion was sealed, and now that a large group of people had no place to live, Bai Sheng came to Liu Lao Taijun and asked, "Mother, where are we going now?"

"You are the head of the family, you have a decision, and after your father is gone, the burden of the family will depend on you. Mrs. Liu said earnestly.

Bai Sheng nodded heavily, "Returning to my mother, this capital is no longer a place where our Bai family can stay, I am ready to take everyone back to my hometown, where there are still some clan relatives who can help us, where we can farm, and we can also do some small business to make a living." ”

"Just do as you say. Mrs. Liu sighed and took off a fork from her head, "You take it and buy it, hire a big car, and we will go back to our hometown tomorrow after your father's execution." ”

"Mother..."Bai Ting, who was in a wheelchair on the side, stopped talking, and the others also had red eyes at the same time, but this time no one cried.

On October 28, the 35th year of the Qin calendar, Bai Sheng, the general of the Qin State, was beheaded at the mouth of the vegetable market for the crime of treason, and a generation of famous generals fell.

At that time, it had just entered the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it was snowing heavily in the sky, and it was blowing one after another, and the blood on the ground was quickly buried.

People on the street rushed to tell each other, saying that the heavy snow falling from the sky was to avenge the grievances of General Bai, and for a time many people complained about General Bai, and some good deeds even planned to incite people to march to protest.

However, as several rumors were arrested by the black-clothed guards, the rumors were self-defeating.

After the Bai family received the body of General Bai and buried it, they hired a few big cars to leave the capital and go to their hometown of Zoucheng.

On the long street, many people who had previously received the favor of General Bai came to see him off.

"Mrs. Liu, this is five hundred taels of silver, please be sure to accept it, if it wasn't for General Bai's righteous insistence, my son's grievances would never be revealed. ”

"General Bai, it was you who led the troops to destroy the Qili Mountain bandits and rescued my family, you must accept this gift. ”

"Mrs. Liu, this is a little bit of the heart of everyone in the Black Flag Army, please don't shirk. ”

Meng Yi also led the horse, Liu Lao Taijun led Bai Qi, Bai Ting and other daughters-in-law got out of the car to greet them.

Mrs. Liu said: "General Meng, the old man wears a guilty body, and he still asks you to send him off, I really don't dare to be it." ”

"Old sister, what are you talking about, I have come to plead for you. After a few days of hard work, Meng Yi looked much older, he knelt down in front of Mrs. Liu with a puff, and was heartbroken, "It's all my incompetence, I didn't ask the emperor to take back my life, I'm ashamed of Brother Bai." ”

Mrs. Liu sighed, helped Meng Yi up with her own hands, shook her head and said: "General Meng, I don't want you to do this, you must not blame yourself, it is Bai Sheng's life as it should be." ”

"Hate those traitors and thieves. Meng Yi's eyes widened angrily, "Old sister, don't worry, as long as I don't die for a day, I will definitely avenge Big Brother Bai." ”

Mrs. Liu was silent, and the Bai Pavilion next to her said earnestly: "Uncle Meng, I don't know whether to say a sentence or not. ”

Bai Ting is known for his resourcefulness, and he went to the battlefield with Meng Yi back then, and Meng Yi was very convinced of his words, and said at the moment: "There are no outsiders here, please say it." ”

"Now the lord is mediocre, favors the traitorous ministers, and the people of insight choose to leave to protect themselves, and now the court is full of tigers and wolves, Uncle Meng, you might as well disarm and return to the field, stay away from right and wrong, this court is no longer a place to stay for a long time. Bai Ting said.

Meng Yi shook his head and sighed, "The old man doesn't know, but he has received the great favor of the emperor and can't get out, as long as I am in the court for a day, I will not let those chaotic ministers and thieves do anything wrong..."

"Uncle Meng, you are now the pillar of the country, you must take care. ”

Meng Yi has been sending the group out of the city for more than ten miles, before he and the Bai family said goodbye, and when he left, he left a wooden box full of silver with him, saying that this was a piece of heart from some courtiers in the court, and asked him to send it.

As the sun sets, the shadow of the carriage is stretched for a long time, and the sand and dust on the ancient road are flying, making it more and more desolate.

On the side of the road, several women in tattered clothes chased after the motorcade with their children in their arms and begged: "Please ask the adults to reward the stuttering!"

These women were yellow-skinned, malnourished, and skinny.

Their lips were full of tears because they often gnawed at the bark of trees, and their eyes were full of despair, like a pool of stagnant water, and only when they looked at the child in their arms did their eyes glow with love.

"Excuse me, you leave some food for them in the car. ”

Mrs. Liu stuck her head out of the window and ordered Bai Qi on the carriage behind.

"Yes, Mother. ”

Bai Qi led several servants to distribute food, and the beggars on the side of the road hurriedly knelt down and thanked him.

......

A little girl of seven or eight years old was guarding a straw mat on the side of the road, and a pair of legs were showing off on the side of the straw mat, which had changed color, and a few nasty flies were flying around the straw mat.

The little girl held a sign that read "Sell your body to bury her father", and whenever passers-by passed by, she would cast a pleading gaze.

It's just that everyone is too busy to take care of themselves these days, and who cares about her.

"Please have mercy on me, sir!"

As the convoy passed, the little girl pounced.

"Bai Ting, you take a few people to bury the girl's father, and let the child go with us. ”

"Yes, Mother. ”

The young man who had been following from a distance saw all this, his heart moved, and he secretly thought to himself: "Since you promised the old man to protect his descendants for five years, you can't always be in the dark forever in these five years, so it's better to play a betrayal of your father, blend into the Bai family, and protect the Bai family for five years, which can be regarded as a favor for the old guy." ”

The young man had made up his mind, changed his clothes with a beggar on the side of the road, dressed as if he were called Hanako, unfolded his body, crossed the convoy on the side of the road, and went around to the front.
