My son sleeps lightly

There is no time left for injuries, everyone's heart is hanging, Changling is the home of the soldiers and their fortress, even if they travel day and night, everyone still stares and heads in one direction.

Xiao Chong suddenly understood Ye Lan's words, he doesn't need a direction now, everyone's expectation should be his direction.

Eleven days, it took them a full eleven days to reach Changling.

As long as there are military newspapers being delivered continuously, it means that the people in the city are fine and the situation is not out of control.

For eleven days, Changling sealed off the whole city, the enemy could not enter, and the people in the city could not come out, their food reserves might not be enough.

The army and the people are united and stick to it.

Di Hong asked people to collect all the remaining food in the city, and opened a porridge stall every day, and everyone ate and slept together, without exception.

In fact, it is also clear that even if they surrender, with the atmosphere of the Luo Beicheng army before, everyone will not end well, it is better to fight like this, everyone believes in Xiao Chong.

As long as they come back, there is hope.

Sure enough, Xiao Chong lived up to expectations, the soldiers he led were all fought back and forth at the gate of hell, and they put life and death aside, especially when protecting their family members, they were invincible.

On the other hand, the garrison in Luobei City had been exhausted mentally and physically after several days of siege. They were terrified when they saw the reinforcements falling from the sky. Crying to surrender.

The soldiers who thought they would have to fight hard got a surprise and breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Chong asked the whole army to take a ten-day holiday to reunite with their relatives.

……

The atmosphere in the Xiao family's courtyard was not at all relaxed, Xue Rui stayed outside, and glanced into the hall from time to time.

Yun Chen stood opposite him, seeing his sneaky look, he thought it was a spy sent by him, so he simply turned his head.

"I think," He Hui said, looking at the crowd gathered in the hall, "the time should be ripe."

Ye Lan looked up at him, everyone here knew what he meant.

Everyone reacts differently.

Some are anxious, some are eager to try, and some are calm and expressionless.

Ye Lan scanned the crowd before looking at Xiao Chong, "Are you ready?"

he asks.

Xiao Chong also looked at Ye Lan, the corners of his mouth slightly pursed, "Yes."

Di Hong clapped his palms twice first, followed by Cheng Yuan, and then everyone began to smile.

The day they've been waiting for is finally here.

Everyone looked at Xiao Chong expectantly, only Xiao Ao lowered his eyes.

Cheng Yuan looked at Xiao Ao deeply, making Di Hong on the side also surprised, but they didn't speak, and no one wanted to spoil the atmosphere at this time.

As soon as Xue Rui heard the movement, he immediately realized what it was and laughed.

Yun Chen narrowed his eyes, "Do you know what it is?"

"Of course, you want to know too?"

Yun Shen ignored it.

"You give me two hangs of money, and I'll tell you."

Don't think about it.

"Stingy!"

Xue Rui stretched out his hand to grab Zhu Xiaodao who was passing by, "I have a top-secret information, do you want to buy it?"

Zhu Xiaodao rolled his eyes, "Don't even think about it."

Xue Rui had to lament that the world is so cold, for the sake of two dicks, these people are not even interested in national affairs, so they really deserved not to be promoted.

……

At night, the moon quietly climbed up the treetops, and the cold light shone into the window, eavesdropping on the whispers under the window sill.

It was rare that Ye Lan changed Xiao Chong's medicine this time. Ye Lan looked very excited, and while helping Xiao Chong sprinkle the medicine powder on the wound, he said, "This time, I am finally the one who was injured."

Xiao Chong looked at Ye Lan and questioned the relationship between the two for the first time, "Second Young Master," he looked at Ye Lan with some dissatisfaction, "Do you really want me to get hurt?"

"Almost," Ye Lan was naturally joking, but he liked Xiao Chong's pouting expression, like a child, "Anyway, I'm happy when you are being played around by me."

Speaking of this, Ye Lan began to miss Xiao Chong when he was a child. He was short, with small hands and feet, and he followed behind him with a bookcase about the size of a person on his back. He was clumsy and cute. How can you grow up like this now?"

What link went wrong?

Xiao Chong curled his lips and ignored this, "Ah, follow me to see my mother in a few days."

"Who are you seeing?" Ye Lan's hand trembled, and the medicine powder sprinkled Xiao Chong's shoulder.

"My mother." Xiao Chong repeated again.

Ye Lan dipped her hands in the powder, and secretly stuffed it back into the medicine bottle, "It's too early to say that now."

"Is it still early?" Xiao Chong turned his head to look at Ye Lan, "We have done everything we need to do."

Ye Lan frowned, "Who is with you, what have you done?"

"Second Young Master really want me to tell you?"

"Shut up!" Ye Lan poked Xiao Chong's wound maliciously, making Xiao Chong's arm tremble, "I, what should I say when I see her?"

"Hmm..." Xiao Chong thought for a while, "Second Young Master, didn't you say that you are the most sociable, and you want me to teach you?"

"I don't need you!" Ye Lan snorted, and then thought, it seems that no one else has this concern except herself.

Usually he would consult Liang Qiu about this kind of thing, but Liang Qiu was so excited that Liang Si's fingers moved recently that his mind was out of order. Ask He Hui, he must shake his head gently at himself, and then he will be concerned,

"Shall I help you think about it?"

Useless.

He Hui looked at Ye Lan innocently, even if he really couldn't figure it out, he didn't have to look at it so disgustingly, "I see," he had an idea, "Chang Qin has a lot of experience among us, after all, he just met Ye Lan." People who lived in-laws."

He Hui really came up with a good idea.

Ye Lan crossed her legs and stared at Chang Qin all afternoon, and Chang Qin finally said, "Well, that's how I stayed with the boss of the Su family all afternoon."

waste time!

Ye Lan breathed out, nestled in the chair, and read Shen Chu's letter.

According to what he said in the letter, Ye Cang was slightly injured and returned to Luobei City for recuperation. The specific situation has yet to be confirmed.

As long as he knows that his brother's life is safe, Ye Lan doesn't care about anything else.

His only worry now is Xiao Chong's mother.

"Brother, don't worry, Mrs. Xiao is very good," Ye Xi sat beside Ye Lan, "Why are you so afraid of her?"

"What do you think?" Ye Lan's tone was not kind.

"Then let me tell you something, okay?"

"Ok?"

Ye Xi mysteriously leaned against Ye Lan's ear.

"what?!"

"I also heard from Xiao Ao." Ye Xi shrugged his shoulders, "Mrs. Xiao already knew about this."

"Eh?"

"So you don't have to worry so much. In fact, Xiao Chong is really caring. He has already paved the way for you."

Ye Xi nodded, as if very satisfied, "It's our own parents..."

She still wanted to say that Ye Lan had already disappeared.

Ye Lan went directly to ask Master Xiao Chongxing for the crime, okay, this matter is still hidden from me, and I am easy to bully! ?

When Ye Lan pushed the door open, she was dumbfounded.

I saw Mrs. Xiao sitting in the room, and Xiao Chong was serving her tea.

Ye Lan opened her mouth, quickly restrained herself, and saluted in a dignified way, "See Mrs. Xiao."

Mrs. Xiao frowned, "You really are a good-looking talent."

Ye Lan raised her head cautiously, quite shyly, it was rare for Xiao Chong to see Ye Lan like this, poking his head out to take a closer look, as if looking at a scene.

Mrs. Xiao waved to Ye Lan, "Come on, let me take a closer look."

Ye Lan didn't hesitate, and stood in front of Mrs. Xiao, "Madam, I didn't expect..." Ye Lan changed her words, "I should visit you first."

"There's no need for this." Mrs. Xiao shook her head, "I wanted to see you a long time ago, but," she sighed, "I couldn't think about it at that time, but now," she patted Xiao Chong who was standing by, " Chong'er is happy, and so am I."

Mrs. Xiao and Ye Lan's mother are not of the same type at all. As expected, women in the Central Plains are much gentler.

Ye Lan felt emotional for a while, then looked at Xiao Chong, who still had a smirk on his face.

Xiao Chong was not like this before.

Ye Lan recalled the past, Xiao Chong always turned his face upside down, like a little adult, much calmer and more serious than himself, when did he become like this?

It looks better when you have a straight face, but now this one is too smoky.

Xiao Chong didn't know Ye Lan's mental journey, he only thought that Ye Lan was also looking at him, and smiled more happily.

After eating with Mrs. Xiao and the two of them were left in the room, Ye Lan grabbed Xiao Chong's face and rubbed it vigorously, "You look good like you used to."

"What was it like before?" Xiao Chong was puzzled.

"That's it." Ye Lan puffed his face, the corners of his eyes and mouth were drooping, "like this."

Xiao Chong suddenly realized, "Is that so..."

He tried to straighten his face, but nothing seemed right.

In the end, he failed in his attempt, "Second Young Master, I can't do that now."

"why?"

"When I saw your face, I couldn't help but want to laugh." Xiao Chong also pinched his own face, "I can't help it no matter what."

Ye Lan stopped, looked straight at Xiao Chong, "You did it on purpose."

"What on purpose?"

Ye Lan didn't answer his question, she pressed Xiao Chong on the bed with all her teeth and claws, making the bed a mess.

……

The people who were forced to stay in Liangqiu's side finally returned to Changling. Most of them were seriously injured. Xiao Chong gave them and their families a very generous pension.

Apart from this, he really couldn't help them any more.

Liang Si's illness didn't seem to be making any progress, but the doctor who had taken care of He Hui showed him that it didn't matter about the limbs at all, as long as the patient regained consciousness, everything would be back to normal.

But when will I be able to recover this consciousness?

Liang Qiu didn't know, and he didn't care, he took care of Liang Si all day long, just like Liang Si took care of him back then.

Occasionally calling Liang Si's name, he seemed to be able to respond.

Sometimes the eyelashes trembled slightly, and sometimes his fingers lightly tapped off the bed, but it seemed that there was still a long way to go before he was truly awake.

Every time Ye Lan saw Liang Qiu guarding Liang Si's bed, she always felt distressed.

Compared to the previous time when Liang Si was injured, Liang Qiu is much calmer now.

He has nothing left to desire.

Those things he was obsessed with, the idea of ​​wanting to surpass his father, and his ambition to control all the underground businesses in the northern border were all forgotten. Just holding Liang Si's hand and telling him some interesting stories every day seems to be enough .

Ye Lan can't tell whether this is good or bad, but this is just like Xiao Chong who has become fond of laughing, they are themselves changed by time.

Life in Changling is comfortable, and it is easy for people to forget the ultimate goal.

But someone always reminds them.

Zhang Tao escaped...

"The city of Luobei is in chaos now. The common people know that there is going to be a war, but the city gates are closed, and no one can get out except for the delivery of supplies." Zhang Tao pursed his lips tightly and looked at Xiao Chong worriedly, " So now is really the best time."

"Does the Ye family know your identity?" Xiao Chong asked.

Zhang Tao was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Madam discovered something was wrong first, so I can only tell the truth."

Ye Lan stood up, "But the letter they sent me..."

"The letters sent by the Ye family are specially monitored, and they must continue to act." Zhang Tao replied to Ye Lan.

Ye Lan sat back on the chair and sighed softly, "It turns out that mother and the others..."

"Ma'am, they said that the second young master and miss are very good." Zhang Tao also watched Ye Lan grow up, and he quickly comforted him, "They want me to come, just want to tell you that if you really want to attack the city, don't worry about them .”

"What does it mean?"

Zhang Tao didn't want to hide it from the beginning, "He Ying has already surrounded Ye Mansion, it is very likely..."

"how come?!"

Ye Lan couldn't believe it, "He needs Ye's iron business!"

"Now, he can't protect himself, so why would he care so much?" Zhang Tao gritted his teeth when he thought of this, "He is saving the lives of the Ye family just to come when you attack the city..."

"Come and contain me." Xiao Chong knew it well.

With He Ying's meticulous mind, he found out everything clearly, and what he was waiting for might be the moment of siege.

For a lunatic like him, Luo Beicheng's safety may not have made him happy watching this farewell drama at all.

After a long silence, He Hui asked softly, "My mother, is it also..."

Zhang Tao nodded regretfully.

"I'm taking people into the city secretly!" Chang Qin stood up, but was pressed down by He Hui again, "We have to think long-term about this matter."

"At a time like this, I, who has no weaknesses, have to come." Liang Qiu swaggered into the door with a look of complacency in his eyes.

What he said is correct, among the people here, he has the least weakness, and his weakness lies there and he is still unconscious.

Everyone looked at him, Xiao Chong asked, "What can you do?"

"When I escaped from Luobei City, Liang Si left a letter for all my subordinates."

Knowing all this, Ye Lan hurriedly asked, "Didn't the letter tell them to escape?"

"Actually, that letter is not that simple." Liang Qiu raised his eyebrows, "Three caves of the cunning rabbit, I have more than one hiding place. Liangsi's letter was just for my father, making him think that my people are gone, and I have nothing to sing about." Naturally, it won’t threaten him,” Liang Qiu sighed in his heart at the long-lost feeling of controlling everything, and then explained to everyone, “If those people are my confidantes, they can decipher the secret language in the letter.” , They should all be hiding in the prostitution hall back then."

"A whore house?"

"Xiao Chong still remember?" Liang Qiu asked.

Xiao Chong thought, "Didn't it be burned there?"

"The top is burned, but the bottom is not."

Ye Lan couldn't help but think in her heart, Liang Qiu belonged to a rat, who had made so many holes in the ground.

"I just like being authentic, do you have any opinions?" Liang Qiu knew what he wanted to say just by looking at Ye Lan's expression.

Ye Lan quickly shook her head.

"You shouldn't have any objections," Liang Qiu snorted, "because the only thing they're doing these days is to beat the mouth of the tunnel under the Ye Mansion."

Zhang Tao was surprised, "Why?"

"It's right under the flower house in Ye Mansion." Liang Qiu raised his head and thought for a while, "That's how I drew it on the drawings."

"So I can still hide a few people before He Ying realizes it, but it's Mrs. He who is difficult..." Liang Qiu looked at He Hui, "Ms. He's health is too bad, I told you before, she is now Walking on the ground is a problem, and He Ying has been under house arrest for so long, and her spirit is also..."

"I know." He Hui's expression made everyone else in the room a little unbearable, and no one knew why someone as good as He Hui had to bear this.

But He Hui still shook his head, "It's okay, there will always be a way, at least mother will stay in the He Mansion, that's safe." His voice trembled, "If it really comes to the day of the siege, let's play by ear .”

"If it's true..."

"Cousin!" Ye Lan stopped He Hui, "We will definitely save my aunt!"

Even though he knew that Ye Lan was comforting himself, He Hui still nodded, "Yeah."

He is so sensible.

Ye Lan didn't know what to do, and secretly glanced at Xiao Chong. Xiao Chong's expression was indifferent. He seemed to have made a decision, "We will go to war in ten days."

The author has something to say: the countdown is about to end!
