Chapter 1484 That Family
After leaving Tongcheng, the carriage galloped all the way.

"get off!"

After galloping on the official road for half an hour, Huahua jumped off the carriage and opened the curtain.

The road was very bumpy, and Zhou Wan's legs felt weak after getting out of the car, her chest and abdomen felt distressed, and she wanted to vomit.

"go!"

Huahua glanced back, and said to the man on the shaft, "Go ahead and find a place to destroy the carriage!"

"Countless!"

The man raised the reins, "Drive!"

The carriage went away, Huahua took Zhou Wan all the way south along the wilderness.

As the night was dark, Huahua found a forest and brought Zhou Wan in.

"It's here tonight. By the way, do you have cultivation?" Huahua found a pretty good place, with dense trees on both sides, just for shelter from the wind and rain.

"A little bit!" Zhou Wan squatted down slowly, so as to suppress the boredom in her chest.

"Tonight will suffer, but tomorrow will be able to light a fire!"

That night, the two stayed up in the woods all night.

Before dawn on the second day, Huahua took Zhou Wan on the road.

After walking not too far into the mountain, Huahua searched around and found a tree stump that had been broken off at the root.There were traces of cutting with axes on the tree stump, Huahua looked carefully, "This is it!"

Zhou Wan became more and more frightened as she walked, "There are no roads in this place, can there be anyone inside?"

"Have!"

Huahua pointed to the front and said, "Look, what do the mountains in front look like?"

Zhou Wan stopped, raised her head and squinted her eyes, "Like..."

She blushed suddenly.

"Mount of embarrassment!"

Hua Hua said, "Just follow that mountain range."

"You haven't been here either?" Zhou Wan suddenly discovered this matter.

"We haven't been here before, but we know this place."

eccentric!
Zhou Wan is a smart person, otherwise she would not be loved by her grandfather.Huahua's actions made her feel that the place was very mysterious.

Could it be some... a hermitage?

wrong!

Who is okay and lives in seclusion in the mountains?

And Zhou Qin said that her brother-in-law is about to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.In the whole world, is it possible that the land of the king needs to live in seclusion in such a place?Wouldn't it be better to go directly to Chang'an?
Moreover, the land of Shu is under the control of the false emperor at the moment, wouldn't it be dangerous to stay here?
Zhou Wan thought as she walked, and almost tripped over the vines on the ground.

Huayan quickly supported her, frowned and said: "There are beasts in this mountain, don't be distracted."

"There are still beasts?" Zhou Wanyue realized that this place was not simple.

Living in seclusion in a place where there are ferocious beasts is clearly a desire to be isolated from the world.

who is it?

Could it be... a certain Gao Shi?
Or a foreigner with astonishing cultivation.

Zhou Wan was thinking wildly while following Huahua in the mountains.

That night, they lived in the mountain nest.

The bonfire was burning, and two hares were roasting on it.

"Huahua, is there someone there?" Zhou Wan tentatively asked.

"Yes." Huahua turned over the rabbit, "Want to know?"

"Yes!" Zhou Wan said happily.

"I do not know either."

cut!
After eating roasted rabbit later, the two sat by the fire in a daze.

In the sky, the stars are shining brightly.

Zhou Wan stared blankly at Xinghe, and suddenly asked, "Huahua, have you met brother-in-law?"

"Your Highness?" Huahua raised her head.

"Yes." Zhou Wan said: "They said... my brother-in-law came to the Zhou family first, and he looked silly, like a country boy. He wanted to marry my sister, but the family said it was a wishful thinking of a toad wanting to eat swan meat. But Somehow, Ah Weng and uncle agreed."

"Isn't it good for a country boy?" Huahua's background is also ordinary, so she is a little dissatisfied.

"No, no, I don't mean to look down on the people in the country." Zhou Wan shook her head, "The aristocratic families have followed the rules for many years, and marriages can only be in this circle... That is, marriages are not just marriages..."

"Pull contacts." Huahua said disdainfully, "Isn't it tiring to live like this if you treat the life of your children and grandchildren as a bargaining chip?"

"But who is not tired?" Zhou Wan said: "From the time I was sensible, I was taught that it was the Zhou family who gave me such a life. If necessary, I should...sacrifice for the Zhou family."

"There are only aristocratic families who live such a rich and tragic life." Huahua thought of King Qin's evaluation of the aristocratic families, and couldn't help feeling that it was too correct.

Sure enough, only His Highness can detect these.

"It was only later that I found out that my family refused to agree at the beginning, but my sister said that even if my family refused, she would go to northern Xinjiang."

This was something Huahua didn't know, she raised her head and praised: "Sure enough, she is the woman His Highness likes."

"Later, as my brother-in-law became famous in northern Xinjiang, everyone in the family changed their minds one after another, saying what... My sister has a discerning eye, and she fell in love with her brother-in-law immediately."

"Has no one praised His Highness?"

"Yes, it probably means that my brother-in-law has the help of my elder sister, and this is how he is today."

Huahua sighed weakly: "A powerful family, why is it like a woman in the market."

"Yeah!" Zhou Wan blushed, "Sister wrote back and said that she never interfered with her brother-in-law's political affairs in northern Xinjiang, but only took care of the backyard and business at home, and occasionally drank tea and chatted with those officials' wives. I Only then did I know that this country! It was all brought down by my brother-in-law."

"His Royal Highness, the dragon and the phoenix, how can those people question it?" Huahua said proudly.

"They said that my brother-in-law was vicious and liked to pile up mountains of corpses. They also said that my brother-in-law was bloodthirsty, and he killed many powerful men in northern Xinjiang. Later, after the southern expedition, they even ordered that no rebels be left behind..."

Zhou Wan asked, "Huahua, what kind of person do you think brother-in-law is?"

Girlish feelings!
Huahua smiled, thinking that she had also experienced such years.

"Your Highness is very dignified."

Huahua thought of the look in King Qin's eyes, "Your Highness is very gentle with those close to him, and rarely gets angry. He is even more affectionate towards children...and he also cares a lot for the princess."

"Well! If it's someone else, after all these years, there would be at least a dozen women." Zhou Wan admired her brother-in-law very much.

"Whenever His Highness knows that the people are suffering, His Highness will always feel uneasy and even impulsive. When His Highness learned of the flood in the North, the ineffective relief of the local governments, and the displacement of the people, he led his army southward at the risk of being condemned by the people of the world. , to help the victims.”

Huahua's eyes were bright, "That time, the officials in Northern Xinjiang, from Liu Gong to joining the army, did not agree with this matter. They felt that if they were not done well, they would be denounced as treason by the world. But His Highness said..."

Huahua sat up straight, "Why did I become an official? It is for the people of the world. Now the people of the world are mourning in the flood, but you are afraid of this and that. To act as a human being, you should ask your conscience! Have a clear conscience... "

Huahua closed her eyes, "Where righteousness lies, even if there are tens of thousands of people, I will go there!"

"Where righteousness lies, even if there are thousands of people, I will go there!" Zhou Wan opened her small mouth, "Brother-in-law is indeed a great man in the world!"

So, is this the real brother-in-law?

The next day, the two set off again.

At noon, they turned over[email protected]Embarrassed Mountain, and then walked through a section of the canyon, and the eyes suddenly opened up.

This is a valley, surrounded by mountains in three directions, and there is only one passage to enter and exit.

The two stood outside the passage, Huahua stopped, and slowly raised her hand, "My name is Huahua, from Jinyiwei."

Zhou Wan didn't understand why she was like this, but she also raised her hand.

There is a small path in front, and there are more than ten big trees on the left and right sides.

Suddenly a man came out from behind the tree. The man was tall and burly, holding the handle of the knife, staring at Hua Hua with piercing eyes, "I haven't received any news that anyone is coming!"

"It's an emergency!" Huahua pointed to her chest with her chin, "I'll take the sign."

"You'd better not mistake yourself!" A man came out from behind the tree on the other side, holding a small crossbow in his hand.

"This is Taiping's new crossbow. Within twenty steps, even if you have cultivated well, you will have to suffer hatred. I know it." Huahua slowly put down her hand, took out a sign from her bosom, and gently threw it over.

The man on the left took the sign, looked at it carefully, raised his head and said, "The sign is correct, why are you here?"

Huahua pointed at Zhou Wan, "This is Wangfei's younger sister. The false emperor wanted to accept her as his concubine, so I brought her here to avoid the false emperor's pursuit."

"excuse me."

The man on the right drew his crossbow.

"Good talk!"

Immediately, the two followed into the valley.

There is a row of wooden houses in the valley, more than ten men came out after hearing the sound.

Zhou Wan saw the fields... dozens of acres of land stretched forward, and there were even more than a dozen sheep, accompanied by a few cows, leisurely looking for food.

On the field ridge, two men and women in their 50s turned their heads when they heard the sound, and they were so excited that Zhou Wan was a little surprised.

"Are you going to let me out? The old man said that Sanlang is not such a cruel person, or you are acting as a domineering person. When the old man sees Sanlang, he will definitely... The old man didn't say anything."

A man drew out half of the horizontal knife, "The so-called Sanlang is not what your family can call directly."

When the woman saw that it was two girls who came, she was secretly delighted, "I don't believe it, is it that Saburo sent me to serve me? Saburo! He has been a good and filial boy since he was a child."

Zhou Wan: "..."

Huahua: "..."

Two men came over, and the man who had blocked Hua Hua stepped forward and said something in a low voice.

"Penson!"

"Tian Zhe!"

The two men clasped their hands.

"Jinyiwei, Huahua!" Huahua also cupped his hands like a man.

Zhou Wan Fu body, "Zhou Wan."

"Meet the lady!"

People salute.

Huahua said: "The false emperor became angry from embarrassment, and he will definitely claim Yizhou. Mrs. Zhou will stay here first. By the way, this place still has to be kept secret at this moment?"

Peng Sen nodded, "Yes."

Zhou Wan felt that this was a place isolated from the world, and the girl was a little flustered, "How long will it be kept secret?"

Won't trap me here for the rest of my life?
The girl has read many novels, some of which have such things written about them.

Peng Sen glanced at her, "Probably... a hundred years!"

"Hundred years?" Zhou Wan slowly looked at the two men and women.

Who are they?

At this time, two men came out of the room, about 30 years old.

"Guard Peng, but brother sent someone here?"

Peng Sen turned his head and said coldly: "You deserve to wait?"

Saburo!

Brother!

Zhou Wan looked at the two men and women, then at the two men...

They all look like farmers, and their hands and feet are rough. It can be seen that the fields here are cultivated by themselves.

According to rumors, King Qin lived in a village in Yuanzhou for more than ten years.

Later, someone went to search, and after learning that King Qin was dating Zhou Ning, the Zhou family also sent people to Xiaohe Village, but that family had long since disappeared.

It is said that the male host Yang Ding lost miserably in gambling, owed a lot of debts, and took his family away in the middle of the night.

Zhou Wan asked; "Are they..."

Peng Sen said, "That family from back then."

Tian Zhe said with a sneer: "It means His Highness is kind and affectionate, otherwise, according to the evil behavior of this family who abused His Highness in the past, they should be cut into pieces."

It was them!
Zhou Wan felt relieved.

"You stay here for the time being, and come out after Shu...is settled down." Huahua wanted to go back in a hurry.

"it is good!"

After sending Huahua away, when Zhou Wan came back, she saw the old woman yelling.

"Boss, boss, hurry up and chop wood!"

"Second brother, go and have a look at the set you made yesterday, is there any beast? Hurry up, I haven't seen any meat in half a month."

"Husband, there is an air leak in our house, hurry up and fix it..."

"Why don't you go?"

"You are a man!"

"Should men work?"

"I cook and serve your grandpa every day. Why, it's not hard enough?"

"The old man has to farm every day..."

"What do you want?"

"You bitch, if you hadn't provoked me back then, how could this old man be so mean to San Lang? If it weren't for that, today this old man can enjoy the blessings with San Lang..."

"It wasn't you who spoke first, saying that the man hasn't come in two months, and the money is gone, so why should he raise that unknown child..."
