Chapter 33

"What's the matter?" Liu Xiaogou couldn't wait to ask when he saw Chu Lingmei coming out.

Chu Lingmei shook her head.

"The sheriff is not willing?" Liu Xiaogou raised his eyebrows and asked.

"That's not true, he... is very good." Chu Lingmei was neither close nor far away to him, and she didn't really know him. These two words might be suitable for him.

"agreed?"

Chu Lingmei: "Yes."

"That's fine, let's go, and enter the county tomorrow." Liu Xiaogou said happily.

Early the next morning, from outside the city gate, Chu Lingmei saw a group of people walking out slowly, carrying some people covered with white cloths, some of them didn't even have white cloths, and they just covered them up.She didn't know the situation, so she told Liu Xiaogou: "Get dressed and go ask, give them a military tent, and let them camp one mile away from us."

"it is good."

Chu Lingmei happened to meet Li Gong, and called him over: "Uncle Li, you go and let them get angry, let Yun Sheng go to the county to carry wine, just tell the county guard, hurry up."

When Li Gong heard this, he hurried to go.

In Kyojo

In the biting cold wind, a man in thin clothes stepped onto the high platform step by step from outside the imperial palace, his hands were empty, his clothes were barely there, and the gauze seemed to be thin. It can be said that he only brought a human body.

"Your Majesty." The man saluted the young eunuch, "Is Your Majesty here?"

"Yes." The little eunuch bowed softly, "You'd better show the jade token first, so our family can let you in."

"Excuse me." The man said.

Eunuch Wang immediately said: "No trouble, no trouble, how can you be called trouble?"

As he spoke, he led the way for the man and brought him to Ye Yu Palace. He consciously opened the thick cotton curtain, and the man entered in a smooth manner.

"Did Wang Jing call you over?" A voice came asking immediately.

The man immediately replied, "I came by myself."

"Come here." The man inside said softly, "Little Ye Zi."

The man heard it, walked behind the screen, squeezed in through the opened curtain, and huddled in a corner by the bed, where there was still a person sitting.

That person was Li Shouqian, and Xiao Yezi was Taifu Yeling.

Ye Ling noticed that Li Shouqian's complexion was not right, and said delicately, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

"Chu Lingmei." Li Shouqian only said three words, with a questioning tone.

Ye Ling said solemnly: "I poisoned his rouge."

Li Shouqian smiled and rubbed Ye Ling's head: "I didn't ask you this."

"My people sent back the news, but they didn't succeed." Ye Ling said, "Chu Lingmei is cunning, she may have discovered something, and I tried my best."

"I don't blame you either, Chu Lingmei is cunning, I didn't think to get rid of it so easily, but, Xiao Yezi, he will have a better time in the future." Li Shouqian smiled, his eyes were dark.

Ye Ling said: "Your Majesty, I have a plan."

"Oh? Xiao Yezi has another good idea, tell the widow quickly." Li Shouqian covered Ye Ling with a quilt, and said, pressing Ye Ling's chest with his hand.

"Your Majesty, why don't you... get closer, how about it?" Ye Ling held Li Shouqian's hand on her chest and smiled sweetly.

Prime Minister's Mansion

Xu Huahua ordered: "Pick all the plums that have fruit in the yard, and don't pick the small ones, and then go buy... a jug with a blue smoke pattern on it."

"Miss, how can there be such a flagon?" Juan'er asked.

Xu Huahua said, "This one belonged to General Chu...that day."

"This..." Juan'er was at a loss for words. She had seen such jugs at her mother's house when she was a child. Usually, the glaze was cracked during firing, and there was something mixed in, or the jug was broken during production.Right now, this is just not losing the function of holding wine.

"Xiaoyun, have you seen this?" Xu Huahua turned around holding the wine jug and asked Xiaoyun. Xiaoyun drew a few strokes, and Xu Huahua became anxious: "Stop! Nod or shake your head."

Xiaoyun shook his head upon hearing this.

Xu Huahua was a little disappointed, she put the wine bottle on the table, and lay helplessly beside it, staring at it.

"Miss, why don't you make one yourself?" Juan'er asked.

Xu Huahua: "Can I do it well?" What if it's too ugly, too fragile and I can't save Xiaowan...

"Miss, you can find a potter and learn from it. I believe the lady will be able to learn it." Juan'er said.

Xu Huahua said happily, "You're still the best at talking, that's fine, you can let Xin Yu go and inquire, and if there are any masters, go and invite them, and you will be rewarded with a lot of money."

"Miss, you don't have to do it..." Juan'er thinks that Xu Huahua is worthless, Xu Huahua is willing to do such a wine jug that no one wants, Juan'er always feels that...Chu Ling's treatment of Xu Huahua...almost What.

Xu Huahua whispered, "I think so." After a while, she said to Juan'er, "Juan'er, just let me do it."

Juan'er was silent for a long time, and finally answered.

Wanxi County

The sun was so poisonous, and the only weeds outside the city gate were buried in the sand listlessly to rest. The army complained again and again, and some even passed out due to heat stroke.

Chu Lingmei brought a team of people into the county to help, Zhang Changshou and Li Gong took people to other county towns, the sky was covered with yellow sand, almost no grass grew, the burning flames shot straight into the sky, the air was full of dust and smoky atmosphere.

The most frightening thing is the rotten and smoky smell. Last night, there were only a few lights at most in the dead of night. Now the house has collapsed, leaving only ruins and walls. , when approaching, there were cries, shouts, and constant curses, all whistling crazily, flamboyant, and struggling in the smoke-filled place, as if swearing the last words when the road is at the end of the road and the end of the road.

The corpse wrapped in the roadside cloth was making its last sound in this world, while the people on the side were still blaming each other and cursing constantly.

On the street facing the city gate, corpses were strewn all over the street, and people who were dying were leaning against the wall helplessly, their eyes were empty and cloudy, and they said something from time to time, looking ferocious and terrifying.

What Chu Lingmei was stepping on were crushed and charred white bones, a little whiteness was exposed from the charcoal-like joints, and traces of blood oozed out.

"What..." Chu Lingmei looked at this shocking scene of purgatory on earth, her eyes filled with tears. She hated to see people suffer, no matter who they were.

"Xiao Chu, move to the bar." Liu Xiaogou said in a deep voice.

"...Okay." Chu Lingmei said hoarsely, blinked a few times to hide her tears, and walked towards the Guangyun warehouse next to the county mansion.

The Guangyun warehouse is not big, it is a granary, and a small warehouse is built next to it to store some wine and meat, but most of them are kept by the common people after the brewing is poor. According to Xiaoman, the county guard, the county guard will drink some from time to time, saying It was brewed for him by the people themselves, and they were reluctant to throw it away. They always felt like they had picked up such a treasure that they couldn't be persuaded.

One day, he finally had a bad stomach from drinking, and felt that he was getting old, so he gave up drinking, but Ding Shao still kept the rotten wine and refused to throw it away. A few servants built a small wine cellar under the granary. He said it was a waste of money, but everyone knew what he was thinking.

Chu Lingmei looked at all kinds of wine jugs and wine barrels in the dusty cellar, and suddenly couldn't stand it anymore, and said to Liu Xiaogou: "The wine cellar is very dusty, I'll go outside for a while." After speaking, she quickly ran away After going out, she felt like a deserter, at least in her heart, she was escaping. Today she saw with her own eyes one after another slender and plump corpses outside the county seat burned into a thin layer of ashes before her eyes, imagining that every day on the ground Every inch of land used to be a lively, lively and kind person. She was in great pain, and she felt powerless to deal with such a situation.

"What's the matter, wasn't it quite capable when you came here?" Liu Xiaogou sat next to Chu Lingmei and asked softly.

Chu Lingmei swallowed her vibrato: "No...it's okay, it's just that the situation is worse than I thought." Seeing that Liu Xiaogou was silent, Chu Lingmei said to herself, "It's just a little worse, it's okay." After finishing speaking, she said to herself He walked to the cellar without hesitation.

"Chu Lingmei." Liu Xiaogou suddenly stopped her. Chu Wan couldn't hold back her tears at the moment. She didn't dare to turn her head and said, "I'm fine." It's just a little ashes, and when the ashes are gone, the tears will be gone.

"We are all here." Liu Xiaogou shouted behind him, Chu Wan was walking forward without looking back, and finally ran.

"General Liu, what's wrong with General Chu?" The soldier who was taking the lead in carrying the wine looked at Chu Lingmei's back and asked Liu Xiaogou. Liu Xiaogou calmly said, "He's fine, he'll be fine. You move the bar first."

"Yes."

Chu Lingmei couldn't find an open space, so she found a corner, squatted down next to a child, and then leaned back, the whole body collapsed, her legs were straight on the ground, her back was bent, and her neck and head were leaning against each other. Looking up at the wall, looking up at the night sky without light spots, she sat like this all night.

The child on the side huddled in the corner with his arms folded, not daring to make a sound. Chu Lingmei looked at him and asked, "What's wrong with you, come here." The child seemed to be frightened, and the scarf was wrapped in a scarf, but There are walls behind, where is the road?

The child's limbs were hugged even tighter, and he looked at Chu Lingmei with big, ignorant eyes, which were wide open, as if he was terribly frightened.

Seeing that the child was so afraid of her, Chu Lingmei was inexplicably angry. She smiled and walked over, wrapping her surroundings with a sinister smile. The child did not move, as if giving up struggling.

"Little friend, why didn't you come over?" Chu Lingmei asked with an evil smile. Seeing that he was not moving, just waiting for her, Chu Lingmei was furious and yelled at him, "Why didn't you come over?! Xu Huahua, why don't you come over?" So afraid of me??!"

Seeing that the child was still not moving, Chu Lingmei laughed, grabbed the clothes on his shoulders, pulled them over, and hugged him tightly.Maybe it's because this child misses Xu Huahua so much... But upon closer inspection, there seems to be no resemblance. Chu Lingmei hugged him for a few seconds and immediately tore him away. Looking at the child, she wished she could rub him into her own flesh and blood.

"Chu Lingmei! What are you doing!" Liu Xiaogou's voice came, still so cheap.Chu Lingmei didn't move.

Liu Xiaogou stepped forward, pulled Chu Lingmei and the child away, and said to the child, "Are you okay, can you stay for a while?"

The child ran away as soon as he heard it. Chu Lingmei wanted to catch him, but Liu Xiaogou grabbed his wrist. Chu Lingmei yelled at him: "What are you doing?!"

"Crack!" Liu Xiaogou slapped Chu Lingmei hard, and shouted back: "What are you doing?! You go here to do these things because you are unhappy? Chu Lingmei, have you forgotten your vow?!"

Chu Lingmei's mind was heavy just now, but now she is finally sober. Her vow...is Anmin to save the world...to avenge the Chu family...it is...Xu Huahua...

"Then why are you yelling?!" Chu Lingmei's temper had not yet come down, she continued to yell at Liu Xiaogou, Liu Xiaogou slapped Chu Lingmei again: "Are you enough?!" Chu Lingmei lost her balance and fell down On the ground, looking at the bones and ashes on the ground, he finally calmed down.

"Sorry, I... didn't want to be serious..." Liu Xiaogou looked at Chu Lingmei on the ground, and then at his hands, feeling very guilty. Even if Chu Lingmei did something wrong, she really shouldn't punish him like this privately .

Chu Lingmei collapsed and buried her head in tears.This is the first time she has cried so embarrassingly since she grew up so big, because this is the first time she has shown such a side in front of her partners. "I'm sorry... I... can't do anything... I can't think of anything... Forgive me..." Chu Lingmei cried and whispered.

Looking at Chu Lingmei like this, Liu Xiaogou finally realized that his general was not the strongest person, and his general was also fragile because of sentimentality. Chu Lingmei, who had always been their pillar, was actually only 19 years old.

The last time Chu Lingmei asked him to arrange, even though he faced only nine people, he was still very nervous. That was the first time Liu Xiaogou approached Chu Lingmei. It turned out that he was full of confidence in front of everyone. He pretended.

Liu Xiaogou always thought that he was only 22, but Chu Lingmei was only 19 years old. He led troops to fight when he was 15 years old, and he showed no timidity in front of everyone.

"General, it's okay." Liu Xiaogou said warmly, half kneeling in front of Chu Lingmei who was hugging him, looking at him.

Chu Lingmei asked him, "Where's the child?"

"Run away." Liu Xiaogou replied simply.

"I'm sorry, I... shouldn't be like this." Chu Lingmei lowered her head and said.

Liu Xiaogou said softly: "I'll go find that child tomorrow, and what you have to do is apologize to him."

Chu Lingmei responded, hugged her knees with her hands, buried her head on her knees, and remained motionless.

Seeing him like this, Liu Xiaogou opened his arms, knelt on the yellow sand, and hugged him.

His general, in need of comfort.need their trust and support.

Chu Lingmei hugged herself for a while, and when she realized that Liu Xiaogou was hugging her, she let go of the shackles that bound her, moved her body carefully, and hugged him tightly.She murmured unconsciously: "Grandson."

"Eldest nephew, Uncle Liu is here." Liu Xiaogou said softly, the voice was right next to Chu Lingmei's ears. What was different was that she felt that she was no longer alone, and she didn't have to cry nervously behind her back, because she had such a group of people , they are all her pillars.
