That's all, I can still be with her after all.The candlelight flickered and extinguished, Xiao Jingyi closed her eyes and listened, her steps faded away.

……

Yi Mo chuī extinguished the candle and exited the west chamber, stepped lightly away from the small courtyard, closed the door and was about to leave, when a frightened bird flew into the air and made a low cry in the bamboo forest in the direction of the official road.

This official road leads directly to Yuzhou, and the city gate has already been unlocked, presumably it will not be a detainee, she waited for a while, the sound was quiet, guessing that wild animals startled the birds, she didn't pay much attention to turn to the third house courtyard.

"Young Master, Yuzhou City is ahead." The secret guard sent to investigate rode back to report, Ling Sheng and others reined in.

The dark guard paused for a moment, and then said: "Now, let's get the key to the city gate, and this subordinate will go and call the door." The leading dark guard clasped his fists in salute, tightened the reins of his horse, ready to go, and only waited for an order.

Ling Cheng waved his hand to stop it, "It's late at night, don't disturb the people." He looked around sideways, got off his horse, and said calmly, "Let's rest here for tonight."

After the answer, the official voice fell, and the brigade went deep into the bamboo forest and settled here.

The guards picked up dry branches, piled them in the open space, knocked the fire with stones, and ignited the fire with the help of pine wood.

Surrounded by horses and guards, led by the brocade robed man, sat around the fire.

A faint cry of an ape can be heard from the distant mountains, like whimpering or whispering, making the night walkers flustered.The guards were vigilant and took turns patrolling the surroundings. Ling Sheng remained unmoved, stretched out his hand to warm the fire, looked up at the dense bamboo leaves covering the sky, brushed off the cold dew on his robe, and smiled lightly, "Since I ascended the throne, I have This is really the first time that the sky is covered and the earth is a hut.”

Xiao Ruoshuang kept warm from the side, wondering what strategy the young Huangdi Xu would propose to govern the country and the people, but he didn't expect to hear his next sigh: "Miss Ruoshuang has worked hard tonight."

For what happened tonight, Xiao Ruoshuang had a little bit of admiration for the little emperor, she shook her head and followed closely: "Young master, you don't need to bother, women have long been used to traveling all over the world."

Ling Cheng nodded, flattened his sleeves, closed his eyes and said nothing.

"Auntie, are you still awake? I'm bothering you." Before Yi Mo could enter the door, Aunt Jing went out with an oil lamp to greet her.Yi Mo helped her old man back.

Jing's house is also a main room and two wing rooms, except that one wing room is stacked with the old farm goods of the old man to dry, and there are only two rooms to live in. Recently, Yi Mo told Jing Yi about Xiao Jingyi's illness and Tang Wan's family situation , Jing Yi discussed with Aunt Jing, and he went back to the cottage to reserve a room for Yi Mo.

Yi Mo felt more and more grateful for the mother and son, and fell in love with Jing Shi at first sight.

Jing's stature is not tall, but she has a dexterous mind and a kind appearance. The demeanor of a southern woman makes Yi Mo miss her own mother even more.

"It's okay, I don't sleep much when I'm old, and I don't sleep much. The collar of Yi'er's coat was worn out. I asked him to change it during the day, and I just mended it. It just so happens that you come back, girl." At this time, the two had entered In the wing room, Mrs. Jing put down the oil lamp, and took Yi Mo to sit by the bed. Seeing the girl's worried face, she thought about it: "Is that little girl better?"

Yi Mo felt grateful, and replied softly: "Sister Wan said that she still needs to be raised." Jing Yi brought her to live in Jing's house for a few days, Mrs. Jing was kind and kind, and she never saw her.On the contrary, Yi Mo treats this elder like a mother.

Mrs. Jing patted the back of Yi Mo's hand, and comforted softly: "The climate here is cloudy and cold, and it's uncomfortable to be outside. Your little sister is going to be healthy, and she will be fine in a few days."

Emo nodded.Xiao Jingyi's illness is a combination of injury and illness, and Tang Wan, who is proficient in medical skills, also said the same... Yi Mo recalled herself, she was also so impatient when she first entered the cottage earlier, the shoulder injury was delayed because of it, it's good As far as her ability to adapt is fair, she will get used to it within a few days.

Thinking of this, Yi Mo's heart palpitated for a while, Xiao Jingyi's skill was far superior to her own, she was so weak, and she was seriously injured before, so it was normal.

"Don't think about it, it will get better." Jing Shi got up, carried the mattress in the bed, spread it on the felt, smoothed the corners of the mattress, and said at the same time: "It's night, go to bed earlier."

"Ma'am, I'll do it myself." Yi Mo got up to take over, spread out the quilt, and helped Jingshi to sit back, with a look of shame on his face, "The younger generation lives here, and I am ashamed to take care of you so much."

Jing looked at her softly, her eyes lingering between her brows and eyes, "you are always so born... Yi'er hits it off with you, auntie sees you as kind, if you don't mind taking it here Just be at home."

"Thank you, ma'am." Yi Mo smiled gratefully, having been away from home for many years to appreciate the family affection, ripples appeared in his heart straight up to the tip of his nose.

Mrs. Jing gently caressed Yi Mo's face, thinking about the girl's life experience she had heard from Jing Yi, her heart ached, "Stupid child. The military camp is where my daughter's house can stay. I have suffered for you all these years."

Yi Mo wiped his eyes, shook his head and replied with a smile: "It's an honor to defend the country."

Hearing this, Jing suddenly burst out laughing, caressing Yi Mo's cheek, facing each other in a daze.

"Ma'am?" A strange feeling flashed in Yi Mo's heart, and he called Jing Shi.

Jing wiped her tearful eyes, shook her head and stood up, told her to go back to the main room.

Watching Jing Shi go out, Yi Mo sat back by the bed, staring at the oil lamp alone, deep in thought.

☆, heroine (catch insects)

At night, the shadow of the moon whirled, and ordinary people slept peacefully in their dreams.

Yi Mo woke up and sat up, closed his eyes and listened sideways, there were faint screams and the sound of weapons colliding.He turned over and got off the ground, picked up the Wai Gua on the bamboo table, and ran out the door.

Where the foot of Crouching Tiger Mountain connects with the official road, it can be called a prairie fire.

Yi Mo raised his lightness kung fu and rushed over, seeing that it was the officers and soldiers and the civilians who were torn apart.

Yi Mo took a closer look, the officers and soldiers moved fiercely, the civilians were more than capable of advancing and retreating, the two sides fought well, and the civilians were all masters.

The officers and soldiers who appeared outside the city of Yuzhou wanted to be dispatched by Jiang Zhan, and Yi Mo jumped into the melee circle to assist the civilian side.

"Young Master, look!" Ling Cheng and others stood not far away to watch the battle. Except for Xiao Ruoshuang, there were only three or two guards beside him, and most of the rest were participating in the battle.Xiao Ruoshuang saw the woman who broke into the melee with bare hands first, and pointed it out to him.

The corner of Ling Cheng's mouth curled into an arc, not interested in waiting any longer, he raised his hand to call for the shadow guards to fight.

The dark guards joined the advancing battle, and after a while, they disarmed and overwhelmed the enemy to end the battle.

The leader of the officers and soldiers whose shoulder bones were pinched was brought before Ling Cheng, and the wolf knelt down in embarrassment and begged for mercy.

Standing by the fire in the early morning, his expression was inaccurately reflected by the fire, he lowered his eyes and said indifferently: "Who ordered you to dare to pretend to be an officer and soldier, and attack civilian houses at night?"

The kneeling man was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly raised his head, his face turned pale with fright, "Master, I have been wronged!"

Ling Cheng didn't react much, and smiled lightly, "What's the grievance, let's hear it."

The kneeling man bowed his head, kowtowed again and again, and respectfully said: "The villain is Zhao Liu, the head arrester in Yuzhou, and he came here to clean up the banditry by the order of Master Jiang Zhanjiang."

As Zhao Liu was speaking, the dark guards brought a group of officials and bandits to him.Yi Mo followed at the end, approached and recognized the leading man, lowered his head, barely suppressing his panic.

"These are all your brothers?" Ling Sheng glanced at them and asked again.

The rest of the people hung their heads in silence as if their hostility had been worn out.

Zhao Liu hesitated, and replied, "Yes, yes."

Ling Cheng seemed to sigh: "You guys are so skilled!"

Before he finished speaking, the guard beside him drew out his knife.

A cold light flashed across his eyes, and the kneeling man trembled in shock.

"Master, please spare me!" Zhao Liu said in panic, "I'll tell you the truth! All of you, be merciful!"

Ling Sheng instructed the dark guard to withdraw his knife.

Zhao Liu breathed a sigh of relief, briefly explaining how Jiang Zhan recruited killers, how he failed in one hit last time, and tonight he was asked to lead the way to attack and capture fugitives at night.

Zhao Liu bowed his head and stammered: "...Your Excellency has an order, anyone who resists and refuses to obey will be killed on the spot."

Hearing this, Xiao Ruoshuang pressed her brows.

Ling Cheng narrowed his eyes, "You were talking about sweeping up bandits before, but now you're talking about arresting fugitives. Don't you think I'm such a fool, don't you?"

Zhao Liu trembling, bowed his head eager to quibble: "My lord, my lord, spare your life, it's Jiang Zhan, it's all because of his vicious heart! He asked me to clean up the people at the foot of the mountain, and forced me to sign a life and death certificate before leaving. My lord, Jiang Zhan is ruthless." Everyone in Spicy City knows that if this battle fails, there is no way out for the dozen or so of us and our relatives and neighbors! My son, I can tell you everything I know! These brothers are all witnesses! We are really forced to survive. !"

Yi Mo heard it clearly from the sidelines, secretly clenched his fists and gritted his teeth with hatred.

"A good guy who wants to make a living, a traitor who runs amok with the common people has the guts to argue so much in front of me!" If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard to imagine how inhumane the officers and soldiers he ruled during his reign!Ling Sheng was furious. "Fortunately, you are so eloquent and boastful!"

Ling Sheng revealed his identity in a rage, but this time he didn't care to hide it. He thought for a while, pulled out the sword of the hidden guard beside him, and stabbed Zhao Liu's chest in one fell swoop.

The kneeling man stared wide-eyed, stunned.

"Swish, swish, swish" came the sound of weapons being unsheathed one after another, and fell to the ground in a blink of an eye.

Lan Shan was stained with blood.The smell of blood came to his nostrils.
