Fly the wrong branch and become a phoenix

Walking on the bluestone road in Quanshan Town, Gu Mengyu frowned, worried, but still did not relax his vigilance, looking around through the cracks in the bamboo hat.

He couldn't stop worrying, Bokang had lost too much blood and fell into a coma, Gu Mengyu couldn't be sure how long Bokang could last, and he couldn't just watch Bokang die in front of him like this.So, despite the danger, he went down the mountain.

After walking for half a way, Gu Mengyu still didn't find anything unusual. Gu Mengyu's eyes fell on an old woman enjoying the shade under a big tree not far away. There, there was also a big yellow dog lying on the ground, sticking out its tongue to enjoy the coolness.One person and one dog outline the tranquility and peace of the village.

Seeing a stranger approaching, the big yellow dog got up suddenly, and growled at Gu Mengyu in a low voice, warning.

"Rhubarb, sit down." The old woman patted the big yellow dog's back with a big cattail fan, and said with a kind smile, "The visitor is a guest, so don't be rude."

"Hello, old lady." Gu Mengyu bowed slightly, the lowered hat made it impossible to see his face clearly.

"The voice sounds like a young man's, it's really nice, like a yellow warbler in the mountains, hehe..." The old woman smiled into a flower, serene and kind, "Young man, what do you want to do in Quanshan Town? "

How like a grandma...

Gu Mengyu felt very sad, he really missed the Empress Dowager, he wanted to throw himself into the arms of the old queen to tell his grievances, and wanted the old queen to avenge his man and son.

However, he was also very aware of a cruel fact that even if the Empress Dowager knew what happened to Qin Yulin and his son, she would probably not do anything to Qin Musen.After all, Yulin and Yun'er are gone, and Qin Musen is the only one in her lineage...

Putting away some confused thoughts, Gu Mengyu asked in a low voice: "Excuse me, old man, does Deyuan live here?"

"Look for Deyuan." The old woman pointed at the east end of the village with her big cattail fan, and said cheerfully, "Their house is at the east end of the village. Whenever you saw a high fence and a big tile-roofed house in the past, it was their house." Yes, it's easy to find."

"Thank you, old lady." Gu Mengyu bowed again, and after expressing his thanks, he walked towards the east of the village.

The old woman looked at the head of the village and shook her cattail fan, and said with emotion: "This kid Deyuan is promising. He left home when he was young and went away for many years without hearing from him. This time he not only brought back a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law, but also a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law. Made a lot of money and built a big house. If my son is half as capable as him..."

With Gu Mengyu away, the old man's nagging gradually disappeared behind him.With a trace of hesitation, Gu Mengyu stood outside the high fence that the old woman said.Looking at the closed door, he still raised his hand and knocked.Compared with the unknown danger, Bokang's situation worried him more.

"Who is it?" A female voice came from the door.Even after many years, Gu Mengyu recognized Ming Lu's voice immediately.

"Squeak..." the wooden door opened, her plain face didn't change much, it was still so pretty, only the tall and straight belly reminded her of the fact that she is now a married woman.

"Who are you looking for?" Ming Lu asked with some doubts when he saw the man in rough clothes who was covered by a bamboo hat.

"Minglu, it's me." Gu Mengyu raised his head and pushed the bamboo hat up.

"Dian..." Ming Lu squeezed her lips tightly. She was smart enough to guess from Gu Mengyu's attire that some unusual event must have happened. Her big eyes flashed with joy and worry, and she hurriedly Turn sideways to let out the door, "Come in."

Gu Mengyu walked in the door, Ming Lu looked around the door pretending to be innocent, then closed the door and put the latch on it.

Looking at Gu Mengyu who was dressed in coarse cloth and had a haggard face, Ming Lu felt distressed from the bottom of his heart, and did not rush to ask, and led him into the main room: "Sir, sit down quickly, and this servant will heat water for you. By the way, let's cook first!" Young Master must be hungry, right? Ah, Deyuan is digging up the soil in the backyard, and this servant will call him to come over and say hello to you."

Ming Lu was obviously a little excited, and didn't know which one to do first.

"Minglu, don't be in a hurry." Gu Mengyu was afraid that Minglu would get too excited and her fetus would move, so she said softly, "Call Deyuan here first."

"Yes." Minglu walked quickly to the backyard, and after a while she heard a voice calling for Deyuan.

Taking off the bamboo hat and putting it on the table, Gu Mengyu's eyes showed helplessness and guilt. Looking at Minglu with a big belly, he really couldn't bear to drag Deyuan into it, but Baikang was on the verge of dying, and he really needed help. .Until now, Gu Mengyu hated her ignorance in daily life, if only she knew a little bit about medical theory...

"Master!" De Yuanfei, who got the news, entered the room and knelt down on one knee after yelling.There was still some dirt on the rolled-up trousers, and his face was darker than seven years ago, but his face was rosy and very healthy.

Deyuan, who was kneeling on one knee, did not bow his head. He held his head high and his chest upright, like a general who is ready to obey orders.There are doubts in the eyes, but they are more calm and joyful, and there is a trace of dignity.

"Deyuan..." Looking at Deyuan's clear eyes, the big stone in his heart fell to the ground, Gu Mengyu knew that Deyuan was still the loyal Deyuan seven years ago, he has not changed!

"Daddy, Daddy." Interrupting Gu Mengyu's words was an immature child's voice, a five or six-year-old boy ran in bouncingly, with a soaring claw on his head, very cute.

"Who are you?" The little boy stood beside Deyuan, tilted his head and asked Gu Mengyu who was sitting, "You are so good-looking, you are almost as good as your mother."

"Nianen, don't be rude!" Deyuan frowned, and pushed his son down, making him kneel beside him, "Quickly salute the master."

"Get up, there's no need to be polite." Seeing the little boy, Gu Mengyu thought of Qin Yu, and his heart ached, as if a big hand was ruthlessly tearing at his heart.

"Nianen, go to the kitchen to play with your mother. Daddy has something to do here." Deyuan saw the deep pain in Gu Mengyu's eyes, and his heart sank suddenly. The master has always been carefree, but now he is dressed like this, so Heavy sorrow, what happened?

"Deyuan, I'm here to find you this time..." The fists in his sleeves were clenched tightly, Gu Mengyu said despite all his reluctance, "It's because Bokang was seriously injured and his life is dying, and I need your help."

"Master, where is Bokang now? This subordinate will go pick him up right away." Deyuan stood upright, just like his posture when he was a guard in the palace.

"At the foot of the mountain to the west of the village, there is a cave, and Bokang is in the cave." Gu Mengyu stood up, picked up the bamboo hat and put it on her head, ready to lead the way.

"Master, you should rest. The subordinates in the cave know that, so I will go to pick up Brother Bo. The subordinates will take a small path and come back so that no one will see them." After Deyuan finished speaking, he bowed slightly and strode away from the main room.

Deyuan's understanding warmed Gu Mengyu's cold heart, and he sat down slowly. The hunger in his stomach and overdrawn physical strength made him feel a little weak, but his worries about Baikang made him feel weak. And no matter what, I couldn't calm down.

"My lord, let's wash your face first." Ming Lu entered the room with a washbasin in his hand, his big eyes full of pity were a little moist, "The rice will be cooked soon, you first drink some tea, and use some pastries as a cushion."

Nianen followed behind his mother, holding a tray with a pot of tea and a plate of pastries in his small hands. He put down the things in his hand and looked at Gu Mengyu with some excitement: "You are the benefactor that parents often say? My name It was because of you that you took it."

Xiao Nian'en smiled innocently, shook her head and said: "I am thinking of my kindness, of my benefactor's kindness. Well, that's what my parents said."

"Nian En is really smart, very cute." Touching Nian En's head, Gu Mengyu's hands trembled a little. Although his son is older, he is actually very cute. Just like his father, he always spoils himself...

The son always likes to say "because you are my mother", so no matter how much he messes around, the son is still tolerant and pampered like an adult.

The thick sorrow is like a mist, lingering around Gu Mengyu's body, the desolate eyes tell his longing and pain, even Nian En can feel this sorrow, he stares blankly at this benefactor who is very good at seeing, his eyes are full of tears. Gradually flushed, tears in the eyes.

The master's haggardness, exhaustion, and sadness all showed distress, even though she really wanted to know what happened, but if the master didn't say anything, she couldn't ask.Resisting the tears that were about to fall from her eyes at any moment, Ming Lu pulled Nian En and said in a low voice: "My lord, please sit down for a while, and this servant is going to cook."

It didn't take long for Deyuan to leave, but it took only half a stick of incense, and he had already returned home through the back door when the food was served.Holding the comatose Bai Kang into the room, Deyuan's expression was very solemn.

Looking at the blood-soaked Bai Kang, Ming Lu covered her mouth in disbelief. In her impression, Bai Kang was cold and reticent, vicious, and powerful. Many people in the palace were afraid of him. Nature is no exception.

Such a strong man now looks so pale and comatose, so fragile, Ming Lu really can't get used to it for a while.
