In the winter of the following year, Sun Ce, who had been fighting endlessly, returned to Wu County for the time being.

The person who brought this news was Ling Tong, who was already eleven years old. The little boy was a miniature version of Ling Cao, walking freely in the streets and alleys of Wu County, secretly searching for the Sun family who was loyal to his father. The sound of the wind that adults can hardly detect.

In the name of gratitude, he came to the pharmacy every now and then for a meal, and after two years, he became an acquaintance of the pharmacy.

This would squat on the stool, motionless like a perched young eagle, only the sharp eyes could not stop turning left and right: "Where is your husband?"

Ji Yan frowned and glanced at him: "Sit upright, didn't your father teach you the etiquette of being a guest?"

Ling Tong stretched his waist, leaned half of his body on the table, touched the tip of Ji Yan's nose, stared at the impatient eyes of the other party, snorted and let out a laugh: "I don't think those young masters of aristocratic families are as poor and fastidious as you are." .”

As soon as the voice was cut off, the clothes behind the neck were pinched, and the whole person was twisted like a wild/cat and was lifted and thrown down.

Li Yinzhou let go of his fingers, and wiped the footprints on the bench in distaste: "Then you will be a guest at home, and don't hang around in front of me all day long."

I'm afraid that Young Master Gu, who is so talented in writing, can poke your father's image into a hornet's nest with the pen.

Can't beat Ling Tong, who is tall and burly, and can't deal with a little bastard?

Ling Tong was not at all afraid of the pen and ink of literati and poets, and simply sat and half lay on the table leg with his pillow on his head. He was more naughty than his father at a young age.

Only then did he point out his intention: "I am running errands for the general. The general and Zhou Lang are going to marry sisters from the Qiao family as concubines, and they have made an appointment to hold a banquet at the end of the month to entertain their subordinates. He said that the marriage was calculated by the husband, so he also Please come to the house as a guest!"

Sun Shangxiang then stepped through the door, her forehead still covered with a thin layer of sweat in the cold winter months.

Hearing this, he showed doubts: "Ah Yin helped brother count?"

What Ling Tong said was that in the past when Zhu Shen came to invite him, Li Yinzhou accidentally predicted that Sun Ce would marry Da Qiao.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Shen actually had a serious chat with Sun Ce during the casual chat at the beginning, and this marriage was made possible by accidental mistakes.

However, Sun Ce has a big picture in mind, and he would never make a special trip to attack southern Anhui for the sake of two women. After all, Er Qiao is just a spoil to show off his achievements. With these old sayings, it sounds like a predestined romantic affair.

Li Yinzhou thought of the real Mrs. Sun at that time, and his knuckles stiffened: "I said it casually, but I didn't expect it to come true, but it was you."

He turned his eyes slightly, and his eyes suddenly cooled down: "You, a child from an ordinary family, how can you help me?"

General Sun delivered the letter? "

Ling Tong saw that this posture was not right, and knew that he had made too many mistakes and offended the other party, so he retracted his legs and sat cross-legged in embarrassment: "My father voted for General Sun, and I will run errands with him."

He looked at Sun Shangxiang secretly, but saw that she was clasping the medicine box tightly with her hands, her brows were frowning, as if she was thinking.

I asked Li Yinzhou to take it as a piggyback, and the purpose of this time is to let Sun Shangxiang go home in a legitimate way.

"After playing for two years, it should be enough. If I continue to play, I will become a wild girl. Her brother loves her, and the Lu family also protects her. It makes me, a mother, afraid to speak."

Ling Tong didn't dare to repeat Mrs. Sun's heartbroken statement.

Things are most troublesome among women.

He could only bite the bullet and take out the invitation card, quietly put it in front of Jiyan, twisted his eyelids and hinted that he would help persuade him.

Jiyan pushed him away with only her elbow.

"No delivery."

……

After Ling Tong was kicked out by Ji Yan, Li Yinzhou discussed the matter with Sun Shangxiang.

Sun Shangxiang was lying on the table wearily, his eyes flickering in the candlelight: "My brother married a concubine, my sister-in-law must be very sad, I will go and accompany her."

Li Yinzhou also had this plan.

Marrying a concubine is not an important matter at all, just take a sedan chair home.This kind of fanfare is to show off Sun Ce's illustrious military exploits over the years, and on the other hand, he is getting closer to his subordinates and drinking a glass of wine together.

But in Mrs. Sun's eyes, it is inevitable to misunderstand it as doting on Xinhuan.

The child he delivered with his own hands will soon be six years old, and I don't know what little Sun Ru looks like now.

He made up his mind and was going to close the shop in a few days to accompany Sun Shangxiang home. He was about to habitually ask Ji Yan to take care of the house when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the young man's handsome profile in the light of the lights. His pupils were extinguished.

At this moment, he had a sudden feeling that Ji Yan was already 12 years old.

The 12-year-old Sun Quan has already experienced the cold eyes caused by the death of his father and the downfall of his family. The 12-year-old Lu Xun took over the burden of the family alone. Now the same 12-year-old Lu Ji has become famous all over the world. Everyone knows his filial piety. fame.

In this turbulent era, 12-year-old children understand what responsibility is.

So he took back what he said, bowed his waist and sat next to Ji Yan, tilting his head to look at her at the same level: "Do you want to go?"

In that day, Sun Ce will definitely invite many celebrities and distinguished guests.The exchange of cups and cups at the banquet is about mutual knowledge and experience. Voices from all corners of the world gather together, bringing the scenery of mountains, rivers and rivers thousands of miles away to this place.

banquet.

It is undoubtedly a great opportunity to broaden their horizons for the children of poor families.

Hearing this, Ji Yan didn't show any sudden surprise, the candlelight in her eyes was still flickering: "Gong Ji also said that he would attend together, I..."

Only in front of such an occasion did he suddenly realize the disparity in status and status between himself and Lu Ji.

A teenager's self-esteem is like a thin layer of porcelain, so cold that he can't stand thousands of miles away, but also so fragile that he can't withstand a single blow.

It must be carefully held and warmed.

In Li Yinzhou's mind, the lonely expression that the young Sun Quan occasionally showed appeared in Li Yinzhou's mind.

Fortunately, he is not alone, and fortunately Jiyan also has her own friends.

So he didn't say much, stretched his body and walked away, only said: "Then go ask Gong Ji for advice, maybe he also really wants you to go with him."

--------------

Ten days of effort passed by in a flash.

Probably because of Lu Ji's persuasion, Ji Yan's eyes no longer had the hesitation of that night, they were as clear and clear as a mirror that does not attract dust, and the light refracted inside can almost be seen.

Li Yinzhou felt relieved, and was just about to accompany Sun Shangxiang to see his wife, so he simply let the two teenagers accompany him.Anyway, with Lu Xun and Gu Shao taking care of him, nothing would happen.

It's rare for the youngest daughter to come home, but Mrs. Sun is not busy seeing each other. She is planning this banquet, and she must make sure that nothing is missed.

This is indeed an unprecedented feast, the five-color silk silk is thrown under the blue sky, the brilliance of the colored glaze covers the rising stars, and the endless stream of guests give in with each other. It's all romantic.

In the following decades, Li Yinzhou only saw another grand event comparable to it, even grander and more prosperous than today.The annals of history entered a new era from that day, but few of the elegant guests gathered tonight witnessed it with him.

Amidst the hustle and bustle of voices, Sun Ce was surrounded by stars and the moon. Even on such an occasion, he still held a sword, leaned irregularly on the desk, raised his glass and sniffed gently under the tip of his nose.

Across the sea of ​​people, he glanced at new visitors from time to time, laughed and drank a big gulp of wine from time to time, smashed the remaining jade cups on the ground, and then jokingly snatched away the wine cups belonging to others from his congratulatory hands .

He looked very drunk.

Zhou Yu stood by his side, rolled up his sleeves leisurely, and occasionally turned his head to chat with him, his joy was very faint.

Just like the moon surrounded by clouds, it is hidden behind the colorful galaxy, covering the whole body with brilliance.

……

Step by step away from the faint noise

In the tide, the small courtyard where Mrs. Sun lives alone seems to be a forgotten world. In the independent courtyard of Laomei, where Yishu moved from Jiangdu, the rustling north wind sifted through, and swaying shadows fell.

Occasionally, a sparrow looking for food swooped and circled in the mid-air for a week, and soon it was blurred into an invisible ink dot with empty disappointment.

Li Yinzhou seemed to have walked into an ice cellar, and he put his hand under the tip of his nose.

Sun Shangxiang stepped into the courtyard door first, her lips moved a little stiffly: "Sister-in-law, are you there?"

A thin figure vaguely reflected in the coffin of the window separated by scattered plum branches.

She couldn't hold back any longer and flew over, calling back, "Ah Yin, come quickly."

Li Yinzhou raised his steps and wanted to follow, but in the silence of the ground, he vaguely heard the sound of a collapse coming from mid-air.

Like an unbroken string, plucking with a touch of anger.

A piece of plum fell silently on his shoulder.

Almost subconsciously, he bowed his waist, and then a small black arrow suddenly pierced through the wind, flashing by his ear with an afterimage.

The sharp blade that passed by sharply nailed into the skinny plum branch, carving more than an inch into it.

Li Yinzhou squeezed a thin layer of sweat from his palms, and suddenly raised his head.

The bleak wind swept up, pouring the cold into the heart along the tear in the clothes.

Sun Shangxiang's lingering voice came from inside the room: "Sister-in-law, where is Aru?"

Mrs. Sun's thin answer was drowned in the wind.

Li Yinzhou let out a breath of cool air slowly, tried his best to loosen his tense brows, and softly advised to the eaves: "Come down, it's dangerous up there."

Hearing this, the pair of little hands that were still resolutely fiddling with the half-human crossbow/arrow stopped suddenly, and only a pair of black and white eyes with fury and resentment fixedly stared at Li Yinzhou.

The reddish eye circles seemed to be separated from the sea of ​​blood and deep hatred, just staring at him with hatred.

Li Yinzhou couldn't help shivering.

But still held back the chill: "If you don't come down, you will be discovered by others, and you will raise a daughter who wants to assassinate the guests, and your mother will be implicated by you."

He waited quietly for a while, seeing that the girl was still indifferent, he called out her name.

"Come down, Aru."

……

Hearing a slight wave outside, Sun Shangxiang leaned out half of his body curiously: "What's wrong?"

She looked around, but saw Li Yinzhou squatting under the tree, with the girl's fair forehead exposed on his thin shoulder blades.

So he murmured: "I know how to coax children." Then he closed the window again to block out the chilling wind.

Li Yinzhou looked at the six-year-old child in front of him, and made sure she didn't hide any other weapons.

Only then did he loosen his fettered hands, stood up and looked down at her.

After squatting for a long time, he suddenly got up, and a dark scene flashed in front of his eyes before the blood supply.

The blood in the forehead surged up, bringing a throbbing pain.Li Yinzhou thought it was troublesome.

Perhaps because of rumors, the six-year-old unreasonably blamed all of her mother's misfortunes on the doctor who took away her fertility and accurately predicted the new man her father would marry.

I don't know who was instigated and stimulated, but he climbed up to the eaves and prepared to shoot him with a crossbow/arrow.

Fortunately, he was only a six-year-old child, and the missed arrow had already exhausted all his preparations.She herself has absolutely no strength to pull the bowstring, someone must have secretly helped her with a fully drawn crossbow, and she just needs to pull the mechanism.

It is also because of this that there will be no second arrow.

Li Yinzhou couldn't think of who he had formed such a big quarrel with. Among the people he offended, the only one who could ruthlessly kill him had already gone to hell ahead of time.

Looking at the tightly pursed lips of this child, one can tell that he must have been abused a lot. Perhaps it is because of the lack of paternal love all the year round, or it may be affected by rumors. This child who was born at the risk of his life was fed and raised by hatred.

Sun Ru's hostile eyes suddenly smashed into his heart like a stone, smashing the superficial calm and calm, and pouring out deep worries and uneasiness.

She is still so young, and she still has a lot of time to correct the shortcomings of her personality. Maybe as long as she grows up without waves, the paranoid hatred when she was young will turn into a joke when she looks back in the future.

As long as there is no more misfortune in her life.

……

The elder and the younger are almost leaning against each other, but their minds are separated by a natural moat.

Dark clouds piled up layer by layer, thickly depressing people's hearts.

Amid the whimpering wind, there were occasional slight crackling sounds of trampling through dry grass.

Li Yinzhou looked away, and caught a glimpse of a light yellow figure kicking away the fallen trees on the ground in the spare time of his sight, and slashing towards him.

The smiling young man squatted down silently, signaled him to be silent with his eyes, raised his hand and hit Sun Ru firmly on the head.

Tears flowed from the stubborn eyes that had just vowed to die.

The grievances of the whole day burst out in an instant——

"Wow--"

Gu Shao froze on the spot at a loss, never expecting to make the other party cry.

Two young men walked side by side behind him.

One face is like frost, and the other is as warm as spring breeze.

Sun Quan lifted up his wide sleeves in the wind, stood quietly among the swirling leaves, and frowned in distaste: "You have to provoke a six-year-old child, Young Master Gu is really going back as he lives."

Li Yinzhou looked up at the two in astonishment, never expecting that they would reunite in such a way.

He even had some grass on his head that he had rubbed against when he climbed up to the eaves.

Lu Xun stood against the light, his figure reflected in the dark cloudy sky, his expression indifferent.

Seeing Li Yinzhou's embarrassed look, he suddenly smiled.

"Zhongmou said that you and Axiang must be hiding here, so we came to find you."

The author has something to say: the ending is sweet, so I refuse to be beaten!
