Chapter 2

"When did my father say we're leaving?" Song Wuyi put his arm outside the railing, feeding the small fish in the pond.

Qingyun read to him the book in his hand, and when Song Wuwu asked this question, he closed the book, took the fish food from the hand of the little maid next to him, and fed the fish with him on the railing.

"Wen Su said that His Highness was writing a letter to King Shen last night, and you can leave within two days after calculating the time." Qing Yun said, "Your Highness asked me just now, do you want to bring those little Sis by your side with you?"

Song Wuxin sprinkled the last bit of fish food in his hand and watched the aquatic plants swaying at the bottom of the pond. "Too many people are too annoying, I'll just take one with you"

Qingyun looked at him and smiled, Song Wuyi's eyebrows were somewhat similar to Mu Wang's, and the eyes of their father and son made people feel at ease, but Song Wuyi was different from Mu Wang in that his eyes were somewhat wild. Qi, seems to hide a lot of danger.Qingyun took the book that was just placed on the table again: "There are three or four pages left, I will go to lunch after reading."

Song Wuxin hummed and asked him to continue reading.He was lying on the bench, with his arms pillowed, the sunlight was not blocked at all, and it hit his face straight, reflecting deep and shallow shadows. He just closed his eyes like this, and the wind was blowing beside him.Qingyun sat on another bench and read to him. He knew that Song Wuyi must be listening. His voice was soft and soft, not as if he was reading, but as if he was telling a story.

The next morning, Tang Wan came to bid farewell to Song Li with Song Li in her arms. Song Wuyi watched her mother approaching from a distance, hurried down the steps to meet her, and took Song Li in her arms to hug her.

"Didn't mother and uncle go to Luoyubu to see the newly mined ore? Why did you come back so early?" Song Wuxin said while walking.

Tang Wan's steps were smooth, her posture was dignified, and she had a gentle smile. Even though she was dressed plainly, she still looked a little more stunning than the girls next to her.

"Your uncle is still here. I heard that King Shen asked you to go to Liji, so I rushed back to see you off. Qing semester is over, and you should relax. King Shen not only called you, but also Mu Yan's two sons. , Shuodong’s youngest daughter is here, you happen to know each other.” Tang Wan said: “Your father can’t watch you all the time now, you have to be careful with yourselves. It’s fine to play around at home, but don’t do it outside. Make others unhappy, Qingyun, remember to watch your son carefully, don't cause any trouble."

Qingyun answered beside him, and Song Wuwu hugged him for a while, his arms hurt a little, Song Li really grew up a lot.Song Wuxin put Song Li on the ground and asked Sanyi to lead him away.

In fact, there is nothing to give away, Song Wuyi didn't bring many things, Tang Wan gave a lot of instructions, Song Li grabbed Song Wuyi's clothes.

"Brother, come back early. My husband taught me to recite a lot of poems. I will recite them for you when I come back."

Song Wuwu looked at her with a smile and said yes.Song Li whispered something in his ear while he was bending over, Song Wuyi laughed and said hello.

The coachman was leading the horses in front, and they were getting farther and farther away from Changqing Palace.Song Wuxin took out a small light green stone from his arms and waved it in front of Qingyun's eyes.

"Does it look good? It's just right for you. Before I left, my mother gave it to me. I picked this color and it happened to be a jade pendant for you. My mother said it was just mined from Pinglang Mountain. If I was in a hurry, there was nothing to give me." , and put a stone in my arms.”

Song Wuyi laughed while talking, and Qingyun beside him also laughed.

"My lord is interested, what did the lady tell you before leaving?"

After leaving Changqing Palace, the two of them were not so restrained anymore. Song Wuyi didn't dare to laugh out loud in Changqing Palace. Qingyun could feel that he was really happy this time.

"You said Song Li, Wen Su told her that the candied haws are sour and sweet, and they are delicious. She asked me to bring her candied haws when I came back. I guess it was because my mother was here, so I dared to tell me secretly." Song Wuxin said, "It's still early, have you brought the book I put on the bed, read it to me now"

Qingyun responded and took the book out of the box next to it.Song Wuyi is actually not playful at all, he is very measured in doing things, he plays when it is time to play, but he is never ambiguous when it comes to business.King Mu really wronged him too much, but fortunately, Song Wuyi never cared about these things, saying that he would forget the next day.

The carriage drove for a day, Qingyun ordered the driver to retreat first, and took Song Wuyi into the inn.The servant outside the door brought dinner and hot water, and Qingyun and Song Wuyi ate together.Song Wuyi was probably hungry, and he had almost eaten the four or five dishes in front of him. Qingyun had been reading to him in the carriage, but he didn't hear him say he was hungry.In fact, it's not that Song Wuwu doesn't like reading. On the contrary, he's very interested in everything in books. It just doesn't like looking at densely packed words, like countless ants crawling on his head.

After Song Wuyi finished eating, he got up to take a shower, Qingyun gave him a new robe and put it on the hanger, the boy at the door was about to take the dirty clothes down for washing, but Qingyun didn't let him take it.Song Wuyi didn't like strangers touching his things. When he was in Changqing Palace, the little maid who washed his clothes hadn't changed. Now that he was out of the house, Qingyun could only wash him for him. Song Wuyi loved to be clean. Clothes are not dirty, and washing is effortless.

The sky was much darker, Song Wuyi lay down by the window to watch the moon after taking a bath, Qingyun brought him tea, and he drank it under the moonlight.

"Help - The Dead Are Risen"

The fire outside suddenly lit up, and the street was in chaos, with adults and children fleeing in all directions.Shouts filled the space, the sound of shelves being overturned, and the sound of dogs barking.Song Wuyi and Qingyun looked at each other, then flew out of the window, two figures stood in the middle of the street, one green and one white, facing a disheveled, bloody woman, grabbing the people on the side of the road and biting them crazily. The man's hands and feet were torn apart, and the pieces of flesh fell beside the lunatic. When the lunatic looked up and saw the two, she rushed over to bite them.

Song Wuyi put the folding fan on her chest, stepped on the woman's arm, and kicked her on the head in mid-air. The moment the lunatic turned around, Qingyun knocked her out from behind and probed her. His breath, he is indeed a dead man.

Qingyun dragged the woman along and rushed back with Song Wuyi. Before he could step through the door, he saw the shop owner grabbing a child by the collar and throwing it out, cursing.

"I didn't learn well at a young age, so I came here to steal things..."

The boss was about to scold, but was stopped by Song Wuyi. He stared at the child for a long time. He was dirty and there were many marks of beating on the exposed skin. Song Wuyi glanced at the shop owner. He hastened to defend himself:

"I didn't hit it. This kid often comes to the store to steal things. He has new and old injuries all the time. I've seen it many times. It really has nothing to do with me."

The child was holding the bun in his hand and gnawed, staring at Song Wuyi, afraid that he would snatch his things away.Song Wuxin called the two servants next to him.

"Take this little boy to my room, and prepare some food to send over."

Song Wuyi and Qingyun squatted on the ground and looked at the woman, her teeth became sharp, a lot of blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth, the blood vessels on her body swelled like black worms crawling on her arms, her hair was messy, But I can vaguely recognize her beautiful appearance.

The kid next to him sat there eating obediently, his eyes flicking over from time to time.

"My lord, this woman has a delicate face, she doesn't look like a country person at all, and you see, his clothes are all high-quality silk, which is not something ordinary people can afford." Qingyun lifted her clothes, mouth Said: "Sorry"

"Fold up her sleeves." Song Wuyi discovered something when Qingyun was pulling up her clothes, and asked Qingyun not to move. "This is the Lu family, the border king Lu Hong who was massacred 18 years ago, and the clothes of the Lu family have such clothes." A pattern like a star, I've heard my father talk about it before."

Qingyun searched for all the information about the Lu family in his mind, and reported it to Song Wuyi: "18 years ago, there were five cities in Potuo, Liji Mu Yanshuo Donggumo, and Gumo was one of them. The largest one has many affiliated tribes, but King Bian of Gumo tried to dominate his family and constantly waged wars against the other four cities. Together they repelled King Bian, and the descendants of King Bian were burned after this incident, none of them survived, and none of King Bian's bones remained."

"The descendants of King Bian have already been burned, so where did this woman come from?" Song Wuwu asked him back. "It seems that someone not only found the remaining descendants of King Bian, but also resurrected her"

Qingyun lowered his hand to indicate that he didn't know, and Song Wuyi didn't ask any more questions.

"Forget it, it's getting late at the moment. After the little boy finishes eating, find someone to take him to take a bath, and then tell the shopkeeper that he wants a room. Let him sleep here tonight, and give him a room tomorrow morning." He's looking for a family."

Qingyun complied, actually Qingyun's strange thing is that this child has never cried or made trouble since he entered the door, he eats food and changes clothes when he is given, he is very obedient, but he is too obedient to make people feel very strange.

The crowd on the street slowly dispersed, and the crowd who were crying and shouting just now also returned home to sleep. The corpse torn apart by the lunatic was just hanging out on the street, and you could see the gray body in the moonlight. bone.
