My years as a soldier

Li Muyun himself did not expect that he was locked into the house by the Zhao family just like that.And this level lasts for several months.The day Li Muyun was imprisoned was still Zhongqiu, but in such a short time, there was snow falling in the courtyard outside.

Li Muyun never thought that the Zhao family would really tear up their face and imprison herself so abruptly.Although he knew that Zhao shi didn't care about him at all in his heart, but he was willing to believe that the former mother would still choose to endure in order to maintain the superficial mother-child relationship, and she would never tear her face.After all, he is still the legitimate son of this family, and the eldest son of King Su.

But this time, Zhao's performance was extremely tough. At first, Li Muyun thought she was angry and overreacted.But afterwards, after half a month, Mrs. Zhao still didn't let go, and instead more than doubled the number of servants who guarded his door every day. It wasn't until then that Li Muyun faintly felt that things had become a little strange. same.But Li Muyun really didn't know what was the difference.

When the first clear snow fell in Chang'an City, Mrs. Zhao went to Li Muyun's room to see him.The woman didn't know what happened to her, but when she entered the door, her face was gloomy and cold.

The other party acted so calmly, Li Muyun was a little at a loss.He was used to seeing people hypocritical, and suddenly one day, the hypocritical people were no longer hypocritical, and instead he panicked.

"Mu Yun, I just want to ask you, if I let you out, do you still want to leave Chang'an?"

Zhao's face no longer had a smile on her face, and her tone of voice became flat, but the words seemed extraordinarily true and sincere.Li Muyun was a little stunned, he looked at Zhao's face, and even thought of his childhood intentionally or unintentionally.But no matter how real the past memories are, as long as the friendship is fake, the memories themselves will no longer be precious.

Li Muyun sighed softly, his mind was filled with Hu Jiuzhang's appearance again, he wanted to see the snow in the Tianshan Mountains, and the ice in the vast sea...

"think."

Li Muyun answered sincerely.

"I want to leave Chang'an, mother. I don't need to be a royal son, but I want to leave Chang'an."

Mrs. Zhao stared at Li Muyun's black eyes, with a trace of surprise in her eyes, but hidden behind the surprise was an inexplicable pain and determination.

"Muyun... Mother is not joking. Tell the truth, why do you suddenly want to leave, and who made you think this way? Also, what did you know about what you said to your mother that day? It's been closed for half a month, so tell your mother the truth."

The bewitching tenderness filled Zhao's face again.

Li Muyun subconsciously turned his face away, not to look at the gentle face that once belonged only to his mother in his heart.

"I just want to leave. I've stayed in Chang'an City for 21 years, and I'm tired of it. I want to go outside and have a look."

Li Muyun's voice turned cold several times, and the warmth on Zhao's face disappeared without a trace.

"Then don't blame your mother for being strict. Mu Yun, you should reflect on yourself in your room. When you change your mind, mother will let you out."

After Zhao shi finished speaking, she turned around and wanted to leave, but Li Muyun took a few steps to catch up.

"Does father know about this?" There was a bit of urgency in his tone.

"What about your being grounded?" Mrs. Zhao turned her head, but there was no emotion on her face, "The prince doesn't know. Mu Yun, now the palace is in charge of me, the mistress. I am your mother, and you are my mother." The son who was brought up with one hand, this point will not change no matter what."

After Mrs. Zhao finished speaking, she left the house without looking back.And Li Muyun stood where he was, watching the door of his room being shut to death by two pairs of thick big hands from outside the corridor, the indescribable disgust on his face, even that handsome and gentle face, changed because of the strong disgust. Terribly cold.

Something must have happened outside.But what is it?

And Hu Jiuzhang who was kicked out of the mansion, how is he doing now?Where is Zhang Si?Will Zhang Si kill Hu Jiuzhang in order to silence him?

Li Muyun had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't escape from this door.

With his frail body, if he tried to force his way in, he would be pushed to the ground by the servants at the door before he could take a few steps.It's definitely not a good strategy to rush in. After experiencing the experience of being blocked from leaving the city once, Li Muyun would not do such a thing that is obviously asking for trouble.What's more, it's late autumn now, every year when winter comes, King Su Li Cong will return to Chang'an from the northeast, and he doesn't believe that Mrs. Zhao really dared to do anything to him.And as for Hu Jiuzhang...

Killing Hu Jiuzhang would do no good to Mrs. Zhao, and she probably wouldn't do such a thing.I'm afraid Zhang Si...

Li Muyun couldn't wait to come to King Su, so he could only inquire about Hu Jiuzhang's situation from the servants guarding outside the gate every three days.Hu Jiuzhang was taken away by Chen Fan.Knowing this, Li Muyun felt more at ease.

The days passed day by day like this, until the end of the year, the yard was full of snow.Li Muyun had been counting the day when his father King Su would return, but seeing that New Year's Eve was approaching, there was no sign that the mansion was going to welcome King Su's return.

Early in the morning, the maid by Zhao's side came to help him change his clothes and wash his hands again. Li Muyun's tired face made it rare for him to speak on his own initiative.

"Is it possible that this year, father doesn't plan to return to Chang'an?"

"This year, the prince is involved in something in the Northeast. I'm afraid he won't come back for the New Year."

The little maid answered neatly, as if she had expected Li Muyun to ask this question, there was not even a hint of thought on her face.

"What big event can delay father's return to Beijing?"

Li Muyun was not surprised either, since his mother had already taught him the words, so he wanted to hear what the words he had been taught in advance actually said.

"How dare this little servant intervene in... the matter of the court. If the son changes his mind and leaves this room, the madam will naturally tell you all about it."

"You, stop doing this with me!"

Li Muyun sighed lightly, and did not speak to the maid again.But life always has to pass. As time passed, Li Muyun was finally allowed to step out of the room on the first day of the new year. Although there were still three or four servants around him to guard against him leaving the house, he was able to go out to catch his breath. It is already a great relaxation.

The air in winter is icy cold, but it is unusually fresh. Li Muyun couldn't help but think of the northern border.He still cared about Hu Jiuzhang's safety, but he didn't expect that he didn't see Zhang Si in the mansion along the way.Li Muyun went to Zhao's house to greet him as usual, and after he went there, he thought of ways to circle around the palace, but the more Li Muyun walked around, the more frightened he became.This year's palace was unusually deserted and dull.Zhang Si has never been seen, and even the maids and servants who are busy preparing for the New Year look a lot heavier than usual. How can there be any atmosphere of the New Year?

But when he stood in front of Mrs. Zhao and saw the woman's face again, Li Muyun was already too surprised to speak.

It's only been a few months since I've seen her, but Zhao's well-maintained and smooth face looks like she's aged ten years, with many wrinkles added out of thin air, and her complexion is also dull.

"Mu Yun pays his respects to his mother."

Li Muyun bowed to Mrs. Zhao as usual.After more than three months of confinement, he is not as harsh as before.After all, it's the Chinese New Year, and there should be some etiquette, but he has put his mind right, but there are abnormalities everywhere in the mansion.Something big has happened.Li Muyun was absolutely sure, plus this year's Chinese New Year, neither his father nor his two elder brothers returned to Chang'an, this is both emotional and reasonable, and it is not right.Every Chinese New Year, the emperor's heir would go to the palace to meet with him as usual.Doesn't father even want to leave this most important cutscene?

Zhao shi waved his hand away, but Li Muyun didn't wait for Zhao shi to speak, he had too many questions.

"What's going on, mother, why didn't father come back? Did father offend His Majesty during his tenure? Or did the situation in the court change, and the Yang family..."

Li Muyun hadn't finished speaking, but Zhao Shi had already waved his hands repeatedly to silence him.

"Muyun... the Tang Dynasty was in chaos. In the middle of winter, Anlu Mountain raised troops. Although it was said that it was in the name of attacking the traitor Yang Guozhong, it was actually against the Tang Dynasty. The traitor's army captured Luoyang, the eastern capital, last month. The prince is in Andong, and was blocked by the rebels on the northeast side. Moreover, the Holy One is afraid of the power of the Northeast feudal town, and I am afraid that even our prince will be counted on the side of the rebels."

"This... such a big thing happened, why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Li Muyun was shocked, but there was a trace of anger in his voice.He really didn't expect that the first words he heard after seeing his concubine would be this.

When things have developed to this level, it is no longer time to care about respect and etiquette. He is the eldest son of the palace. If King Su is "trapped" in Anton like this, then next, the master of this family will be Li Muyun.And if his aloof emperor grandfather really suspected that King Su was involved in the rebellion, then whether the people in King Su's mansion could survive this year is another matter.Now the sage in Daming Palace is more vicious than the enemy when he punishes his own children and grandchildren.

Zhao Shi should have known Li Muyun would have such a reaction, but even so, after Li Muyun questioned her, Zhao Shi's eyes were still filled with helplessness and pain.Her eye circles turned red immediately, Li Muyun had never seen a mother who acted so cowardly in front of him, he was secretly surprised, but his anger would not be diminished in the slightest.He had a cold face, and the thoughts in his mind never stopped for a moment.

The more Li Muyun thought about it, the more he frowned; the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

What was blocked in Andong by the An Lushan rebels?What nonsense!At this time, how could the Zhao family, who is Princess Su, still fail to see the importance of Su Wangfu and the situation in the court?This woman usually has a lot of scheming, but when she encounters a serious matter, she is so confused that people don't know where to say it!

When Li Muyun thought of this, a wave of resentment and anger welled up in his heart, and he really couldn't vomit.

"Mother, I don't think my father was blocked in Anton, but he stayed there voluntarily, right? From the Kaiyuan period to the present, the status of the Anton Governor's Mansion has dropped by many levels. Don't you just turn a blind eye? From the beginning In the first year of Tianbao, it was placed under the control of Youzhou, and now, together with Youzhou, it was placed under the rule of Lu Ping, and it was An Lushan who served as Lu Ping's military envoy! The status of the court is getting worse day by day, but after all these years, my father's position as the governor of Anton has been kept. What role did An Lushan play in this, and what is the relationship between his father and Anlushan? Why can't you see through it?"

Li Muyun couldn't stop asking sharply.As a concubine, he cared about the affairs of the palace and her two sons more than her own life, but once she left the palace, the chaos in the world would become a big problem in her mind. A lump of paste.

"Also, why did my father keep someone like Zhang Si in Beijing? Isn't it just to keep us as a backup, inquire about the news, and keep our family safe? Any movement in Chang'an City cannot completely escape Zhang Si's hands." Those eyes and ears, Zhang Si is my father's hidden stake in Chang'an, it is for life-saving! I have walked all the way, and I have not seen Zhang Si. Since you have listened to that guy's opinion and drove Hu Jiuzhang away, what about others now? ?”

"Zhang Si...Zhang Si..."

Speaking of this, Zhao's eyes became more gloomy.

"Zhang Si is dead..."

"Dead? How did you die? When did you die?"

Li Muyun was taken aback.He was worried that Zhang Si would harm Hu Jiuzhang in order to save himself, but he didn't expect that this person would die.But the current situation...

"It was the second day after the wounded soldier was sent away. News came from Chang'an County early in the morning, saying that people from the Wangfu were asked to go to the county government to identify the body. The people from the county government said that Zhang Si took the body with him that night Someone sneaked into Jiahuifang to commit murder, and was beheaded by a bad guy named Chen Fan. There are all evidences and evidences on his side, and the palace can't defend a dead person who made a mistake, and besides..."

As Zhao shi was talking, her expression darkened a lot, but Li Muyun didn't have time to take care of her little emotions.

Chen Fan killed Zhang Si, which meant that Hu Jiuzhang should be staying with Chen Fan now.Knowing that Hu Jiuzhang was fine, Li Muyun felt relieved, but he couldn't let go of the stone that weighed the heaviest on his heart.

"Mother, I think we should prepare to flee as soon as possible. Father and two elder brothers may have participated in the rebellion of Anlu Mountain. If the Holy Majesty remembers that he still has a son like me in Beijing, I am afraid that the king of Su Palace The end is coming."
