lord and beauty

The author has something to say: Babies also understand what I mean, [wink eyebrows], I want that one, the one with five horns, cute and cute, little starfish.

Fortunately, Jiang Beimu didn't know what he was thinking, so he just gently held the baby in his arms and talked to him softly.

Sitting aside, Tan Qiu stretched out his hand and gently pulled the tiger hat on the baby's head. The baby swayed according to the movement, then turned around, stretched out his hand slowly, and asked Tan Qiu for a hug, and said vaguely Sentence: "Mother."

Tan Qiu was immediately elated, picked up the baby in his arms, took the time to secretly glance at Jiang Beimu, but saw Jiang Beimu's complexion, he seemed to hesitate to say something.

Although the baby hadn't seen the two of them for a while, and was a little cautious at first, Tan Qiu and Jiang Beimu held the baby while the other broke a branch, and taught the baby by gesturing in the muddy field of the courtyard. Literacy.

For a while, it was fun. Today, the sun is shining brightly, the snow has disappeared, and there is a rare warmth in the wind, like a piece of tulle sweeping from Tanqiu's cheeks all the way to the tip of his hair, bringing an inexplicable itching in my heart. But it was extraordinarily carefree, holding such a baby in her arms, so soft, Tan Qiu was so beautiful.

"Is the master going to take Zheng'er to the grassland to see in the future? After all, his grandfather was born there, so it can be regarded as half of his hometown." Tan Qiu saw Jiang Beimu patiently drawing patterns on the ground, and his mind went through many twists and turns. , couldn't help asking.

"Although the grassland is vast, there are many tribes, and different tribes are incompatible with each other, and conflicts often occur." Hearing this, Jiang Beimu replied, stretched out his hand and tapped a branch on the mud, thinking for a moment, " And now I don't know where the Quan Rong tribe's tribal stronghold is, and I have hardly been there, and there are no people in the Quan Rong tribe that I know well, so it's meaningless to go there."

Tan Qiu recalled that Jiang Beimu seemed to have indeed said that his father did not take him to live in the grassland, and he probably didn't communicate with the Quanrong people much, so it was really not good to take him rashly.

Tan Qiu said "Oh", blinked his eyes, suddenly thought of someone, and hurriedly said: "Isn't that Samu just from the Quanrong people? He should know the current situation of the tribe."

"Let's talk about it." Jiang Beimu just dealt with the words casually, and then reached out to touch the baby's cheek, and the rough fingertips gently rubbed the smooth and tender skin, making the baby giggle.

Tan Qiu hesitated for a while, and said carefully: "Master doesn't seem to like grasslands very much?"

Jiang Beimu's hand caressing the baby's cheek paused for a moment, his expression dazed, and he didn't answer Tan Qiu's words. Seeing this, Tan Qiu was in a bad mood, so he hurriedly shouted, "I just asked casually, and it's pretty good here in Jiangnan." Well, our Yuan Dynasty has a vast land, and there is no scenery, but Jiangnan is very good, supporting people."

"I just want to." Jiang Beimu didn't care about Tan Qiu's haste, but murmured: "If you can't go to the grassland, it's better not to go. The tribes may have a good talk one moment, and the next moment Fighting and fighting for the sake of aquatic plants, in the face of survival, there is no friendship at all."

"The tribes are fighting, and the surrounding towns will also be affected." Jiang Beimu sighed softly, withdrew his hand, took a deep look at the baby and stood up, Tan Qiu looked up slightly, Jiang Beimu was tall and bright A shadow cast from below shrouded Tan Qiu's body, and there was an unknown sense of oppression in the invisible.

"I was only a few years old at the time. The tribe entered the city in order to seize the winter food and grass. Fortunately, my mother and I were rescued by a Han Chinese caravan and escaped all the way out of the city. It's a pity..."

"After the turmoil, my mother and I returned to the city. That scene is unforgettable in my life."

"The city is in a mess, the streets are full of corpses, some are barbarians and some are Han, and some are seriously injured and dying. I have never seen such a bloody scene. My mother is lucky. My father just left the city and went to the grassland. , maybe he's all right."

Hearing this, Tan Qiu already understood most of it. Jiang Beimu didn't need to mention the rest of the words. He could guess that mentioning the old things in this way was nothing more than exposing scars. Tan Qiu secretly regretted and wanted to say something wrong. He started the topic, but he hesitated seeing Jiang Bei's expression on his face.

"My mother and I found my father's body in the house. Maybe he had just passed away. A dagger pierced his chest. The ground was covered with disgusting blood. There were three other beards lying in a pool of blood next to him. People were all killed by having their throats slit.”

"I don't know who killed my father. It may be Hu people or Han people."

"It doesn't matter anymore."

Jiang Beimu's voice became lower and lower, and finally turned into a soft sigh.

"Then don't go to the grassland, let's stay in the south of the Yangtze River." Tan Qiu didn't know what to say to comfort Jiang Beimu for a while, after all, the pain of losing a loved one would feel pale to be soothed by any words, so he pursed his lips and said softly .

The baby also sensed the seriousness of the atmosphere, but he was ignorant. He could only raise his head and blink his small eyes at Tan Qiu, obediently calling: "Mother..."

Tan Qiu responded softly, and rubbed his face against the baby, but saw that Jiang Beimu was still immersed in the memories, and wanted to speak, but suddenly saw a beautiful figure walking from the door out of the corner of his eyes.

"My lord, someone came to look for it, and said it was from Xiaohezhuang, and I want you to go and see it yourself."

Mei Xiang stood outside the courtyard, dutifully bowing her head and waiting for Jiang Beimu's reply. Without the publicity she showed Tan Qiu a few days ago, it didn't matter to Tan Qiu. After all, he doesn't deal with Mei Xiang now, so there's no need to go there Targeting her is a waste of my time, as long as she doesn't mess with me.

Jiang Beimu was brought back to his senses by Mei Xiang's words, and he just nodded slightly, "Understood, let's go right away."

Mei Xiang leaned over, her eyes glanced over Tan Qiu seemingly unintentionally, she turned and left with a puzzled look on her face.

Jiang Beimu stretched out his hands to straighten his clothes, turned around and started to leave, when he suddenly thought of something, he stopped and asked Tan Qiu, "Do you want to go with me?"

Tan Qiu was startled for a moment, then blinked and froze on the spot, unable to react for a while.

This seemed to be the first time that Jiang Beimu took him there by himself, instead of sticking to him by himself.

After Tan Qiu came to his senses, he jumped for joy, wishing he could nod his head and fly over immediately, but before he could speak, he suddenly felt his clothes tighten.

"Mother...Mother..."

A weak voice came from his bosom, Tan Qiu looked down, and saw the baby's big watery eyes looking at him pitifully, his small hands tightly clutching the skirt of his clothes, and with great force, both hands They were all squeezed into little buns.

"Accompany...accompany"

Tan Qiu was at war between heaven and man for a while, who could refuse a soft little dumpling to play with in your arms acting like a baby? !

One side is his own man, and the other side is his own son.

This is really frustrating.

"Nurse isn't here, so you can stay with Zheng'er well." Seeing this scene, Jiang Beimu didn't ask too much, so he said to Tan Qiu, "It can be regarded as making up for me."

After saying that, seeing Tan Qiu nodding his head in response, Jiang Beimu felt relieved and turned to leave.

"You little thing." Tan Qiu stretched out his fingers to pinch the tip of the baby's nose, pretending to be vicious and said: "For disturbing your father's beautiful scenery, you should spank|ass!"

The baby didn't understand, he only knew that Tan Qiu stayed to play with him, and he just grinned silly.

Tan Qiu liked it more and more, hugged the baby and kissed again and again.As soon as I put down here, I saw Ruan Yue sneaking over from the edge of the courtyard. She poked her head out and looked around the courtyard. Seeing that there was no one else but Tan Qiu and the baby, she felt relieved and waved to Tan Qiu to signal He comes near.

Seeing this, Tan Qiu carried the baby to the chair and sat down first, then got up, clapped his hands, and walked towards Ruan Yue.

"What are you doing sneaky?"

Ruan Yue looked around with lingering fear, and saw that there was no one behind her, so she leaned forward and said softly to Tan Qiu: "In the past few days, some people in the mansion have become more active, and they were driven by that plum fragrance."

"How do you say it?" Tan Qiu couldn't understand Ruan Yue's riddle, glanced at the baby in the yard from the corner of his eye, saw him strolling around the yard, and felt a little relieved.

"I heard from them that there will be some arrangements in the mansion next month. It seems that it is because of the master's birthday."

"Birthday? The master didn't tell me that." Tan Qiu stroked his chin, a little surprised, but was it really Jiang Beimu's order to organize the birthday banquet in the mansion?

It doesn't look like it.

"I don't know the specific situation." Ruan Yue's voice was weak, she turned her head and looked back, and continued: "But son, think about it, after the birthday, the master will be in his thirties, and the mistress of the mansion is vacant, and ..."

Ruan Yue's voice became lower and lower, and she said in a low voice: "It is said that our master has some relationship with that city lord's mansion. Doesn't this mean that a mistress in this mansion will become a favorite? It is hard to guarantee that there will be no people who are quick-witted. You may not know these things. I understand, but I still have to remind you that at that time, when you eat at the banquet, eat as little as you can, who knows whose hands it will go through?"

"That's it?" Tan Qiu raised his eyebrows, obviously not understanding why Ruan Yue was so sneaky. "What's there to cover up?"

Ruan Yue pursed her lips, stomped her feet, and said bluntly, "I'm here to deliver something to the young master! It just so happens that you and the master have gotten closer these few days?"

"Since the master does not reject your approach, there is probably hope for things. I don't know what will happen next month. I came this time to tell you that now is the best time. You should just go all out and find a way to let the master I'll give you the status of being the head of the family, even if you don't give me a title, I'll ask for the internal affairs first!"

Tan Qiu blinked, not knowing how much Ruan Yue listened to what she said.

Ruan Yue didn't dare to stay longer, so she hurriedly stuffed a small piece of paper into Tan Qiu's hand, and said in a low voice: "It's that thing, sir, I'll talk about it when the time is right. I just took time out, so I have to go back first. Otherwise they will get suspicious."

After saying that, Ruan Yue hurried away along a hidden path.

Tan Qiu weighed the paper bag in his hand, thinking about Ruan Yue's words, and suddenly realized.

Ruan Yue is asking him to be the overlord, but even if he becomes the overlord, can Jiang Beimu really marry him obediently?

And... Looking at his body, no matter what, this overlord should also be Jiang Beimu.

Tan Qiu touched the paper bag, hesitated again and again, put it in his arms first and put it away, turned around and went back to the small courtyard, but he was shocked when he didn't see the baby.

"Zhenger!"
