Xu Ziming wiped away his tears, "There is indeed another matter, adults don't know yet, but I don't know if this matter is important." ” "What the hell is going on?"
Cheng Muyou's voice was short and short.
"My lord, do you remember the story I told about the third lady of the Taiwei Mansion and Han Gongzi?"
"I remember, you also suspected that Han Gongzi was the real murderer behind the scenes."
Xu Ziming's face was covered with a layer of frost, "I lied to my lord, in fact, Han Gongzi is not surnamed Han, his Han name is Li Derang, it is the Duke of Chu who is now the ruler of the Liao State, and the third lady is the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao State."
(Note: It is inevitable that the names of real people will collide, and the author has changed the names of the two here.) ） Cheng Muyou was shocked, "So you were a helper of the Xiao family back then?"
” Xu Ziming nodded heavily, "My real name is Xiao Lu, and I am a helper in the Taiwei Mansion, that is, the mother of the Empress Dowager Xiao, and later due to the need for soldiers in the imperial court, I went out with the army and participated in the first battle between Song and Liao," he swallowed his saliva, "My lord, I was also present in the battle of the Yin Soldier Tank, I should have been buried in the Yin Soldier Tank with the three thousand soldiers, but after a rain of arrows, I only injured my hand, and the rest of my body was fine.
Luckily, I was taken in by a family to recuperate from my wounds, but after my injuries were healed, I could not return to my homeland because I was a deserter, and there was only one way to die when I returned.
Luckily, the family took pity on my situation and adopted me as an adopted son.
Since then, I have lived in Hejian, married and had children as a Han Chinese.
As for what happened next, the adults already knew.
It's just that if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes yesterday, I would have always thought that Li Derang was behind this matter, because there was also a red line in the belly of the disciple who bullied the third lady, but now it seems that Li Derang is not the only one who will make this kind of evil art, that Qiaoyun is also a snake whisperer. ” "Li Derang" Cheng Muyou read out these three words, "The dignified Duke of Chu and Liao should not come to the Great Song Dynasty in person to avenge the soldiers who died in the war, unless there is a bigger conspiracy behind this matter." ” "It's just my conjecture, Qiao Yun is dead, although we suspect that she is revenge and killing, but we can't find more conclusive evidence, but it's a pity that Master Shi and them are still nowhere to be found."
Xu Ziming shook his head and sighed.
Cheng Muyou looked out the door, "Tomorrow, I regret that I will lead someone to conduct a comprehensive search of Liaoyang County, if I can't find anyone, I'm afraid" His eyes were deep, and there was endless sorrow inside.
Outside the green gauze tent, a maid was gently shaking the feather fan in her hand to dispel the heat of the room.
She shook the fan too intently, not only afraid that the wind would not bring coolness, but also afraid that the wind would startle the sweet dreams of the people in the tent, and she did not notice that a slender figure was already standing behind her.
"The Queen Mother is asleep?"
The man whispered the words.
Hearing this, the little maid was startled, the fan fell to the ground, and said "The slave should die", turned around to kneel, but was stopped by the man raising his hand, "Don't wake up the queen mother, wait for her to wake up, and tell her that I have come to ask for peace." ” After closing his words, he walked out of the dormitory, the little maid picked up the fan, looked at the back of the side lying in the gauze tent, and muttered in her heart: The Queen Mother slept so sweetly this night, she didn't wake her up with such a big movement, and she didn't know what kind of sweet dream she was having.
The green yarn was flying, like the man's fluttering robe, and there was a dark fragrance hidden on it, unlike the swingers and rough men she had seen.
Xiao Wu raised the corners of her mouth in her dream, she was only sixteen years old that year, and it was the best time in a woman's life, but she was used to seeing the flattering faces of those wild bees and butterflies, and she actually had a little contempt for men in her heart, so even if there were countless ministers under the skirt, none of them could really be seen and remembered by her.
That night was a good day with a clear wind and a bright moon, she looked at the full moon hanging at the end of the grassland, and suddenly gave birth to a sense of ambition in her heart, only hating herself for giving birth to this daughter, unable to make meritorious contributions and fight on the battlefield, thinking of this, her chest was already overflowing with a tragic feeling, she pulled the reins, rode a horse on the grassland, and relieved the long-suppressed pride and ambition.
But as he ran, a rabbit suddenly sprang out of the grass in front of him, and like a whirlwind, it burrowed between the horse's hooves.
The horse was suddenly frightened, galloped like an arrow, ran for a while, and then stopped, its hind hooves rubbing the roots and dirt below, and the horse's back became more and more frenzied, raising up clouds of gray sand, trying to lift the man on his back from the height.
Xiao Yu stroked its mane and whispered softly to soothe, but it didn't work at all.
The horse went berserk, spewing white air from its nostrils and neighing incessantly, apparently taking its owner on its back as an enemy of the world, and looking desperately manic.
Xiao Wu felt that she was about to lose the reins, her body was turned up and down, and if she continued like this, she would be shocked out and die tragically under the horse's hooves.
She was so panicked that her face turned white, there was no one here, only her and a mad horse, but how to do it.
Just when it was called that the earth and the earth should not be called spiritual, Xiao Wu only felt that the horse's back sank, and then leaned on her back, she didn't have time to turn back, but she could smell the faint lotus fragrance on that person's body.
"Brute, it's cool in autumn, what are you dry?"
The man said this carelessly, and patted the horse's buttocks, which was strange to say, and the horse was going mad, and when he slapped it like this, he fell silent, and the four hooves paced gently and slowly on the turf, and after a while, he bowed his head and ate the grass.
Xiao Wu and the man sat back to back on the horse, smelling the dark fragrance on his body between their noses, and their hearts were beating like a drum, "dong dong" kept beating.
Finally, she made up her mind, gathered the messy hair in front of her forehead and turned her head, "Thank you Gongzi for rescuing, little girl Xiao Wu, dare to ask Gongzi's surname." ” The person behind him was wearing a green robe, holding a pot of wine in his hand, and when he heard her question, he didn't look back, but only put the wine into his mouth, "It's just a nobody, why is the name enough, the girl wasn't surprised, right?"
” Seeing that he had covered it up, Xiao Wu felt discouraged, quite unpleasant, thinking about those princes and princes, who were not scrambling to report their names, for fear that she would forget them in a blink of an eye, but this person actually hid herself, which really made her feel uneasy.
"I'm fine, I grew up on horseback, this kind of thing, it's happened a lot."
I was not happy, and I was a little angry when I said it, and Xiao Wu was rejected for the first time, and she felt that this taste was quite useless.
The person behind her seemed to hear the change in her tone, smiled loudly, and handed the wine jug over, "The girl said that she was fine, but her body was shaking badly, take a sip of wine, and calm down." ”
