Chapter 34 Ambush from All Sides
34. Ambush on all sides

Situ Yuze left Chengxi Hall and headed back home.

When I came home, I saw my mother sitting in the living room quietly and gracefully, always doing embroidery.

"Mother, I'm back."

"Ze'er, where have you been? You have been racing all morning, and it's late for lunch. Mom is waiting for you, go wash your hands and eat. Sister Yun, bring your lunch!" Mrs. Situ was very gentle and treated her servants very well. gentle.

"Mother, I met someone today, which is related to the marriage my father arranged for me, so I went to confirm her identity. Maybe soon, Situ's family will have a wedding." Situ Yuze answered very flatly, as if not Happy and don't care.He washed his hands and helped his mother to the restaurant for dinner.

"Oh? Really? Ze'er, have you found the girl your father chose for you? Didn't you say that her family is very arrogant and hasn't come to get married for so many years? Ze'er, don't our Situ family need to be wronged My mother knows that you are filial and doesn’t want to go against your father’s last wish, but my mother also doesn’t want my child to be wronged by an inexplicably arrogant young lady. If you don’t like it, we can withdraw the engagement.” The mother always protects her son It's in nature to make things difficult for your wife.

This Mrs. Situ seemed to be quite helpful to Yu Yujing, and she wanted to withdraw the engagement every now and then.

"Mother, I just found out today that her parents died under the random gunfire of the enemy shortly after saving her father. She was too young when she was sent home, and no one knew the details of the engagement, so they sent people to look for her now. It's a pity that this girl has no parents since she was a child, so let's not embarrass her, and take her into the house according to father's wishes." Situ Yuze worked as a mother in a gentle manner.

"Ze'er, what kind of girl do you want to marry, and how many do you want? My mother doesn't object, but are you happy? You haven't married yet. If you let her in now, she will be your legal wife, the daughter-in-law of the Situ family. , your original spouse—are you sure that just because the parents of this girl saved your father, you will repay her like this and take care of her for the rest of your life? Do you know that girl well, are you sure she deserves this kind of treatment from you?" Mrs. Situ's worry is not No reason.

Situ Yuze fell silent.

"Ze'er, mother thinks that there is no need to rush this marriage. The other party has waited so long to find relatives. We are the man, so there is nothing to worry about. You can slowly pay attention to the girl you like. If you find your sweetheart, of course The girl you like is the most important. As long as we marry the Yu family, it will not be considered a breach of the contract, why should we take the promise so seriously?" Mrs. Situ continued to persuade her son earnestly.

She knew that this son worshiped his father since he was a child, and his father taught him both civil and martial arts. He would definitely carry out his father's last wish with [-]% sincerity.But as a mother, she had to be selfish for her son, and she couldn't tolerate a girl she had never met like him.

"Well, mother, I'll think about it again. By the way, I'll go back to Chengde tonight. It will be the anniversary of my father's death in a few days. I'll go back to worship my ancestors." Situ Yuze followed his mother's advice and didn't think about getting married for the time being.

"Back to Chengde? Are you taking your mother with you?" Mrs. Situ's eyes brightened.

"Mother, you are not in good health, so don't rush on the road. I picked a few horses today. I originally planned to go back overnight. It is inconvenient to take you with me. Or if you want to go, I will ask Adjutant Shen to help you buy a ticket. Tomorrow night Back?" Situ Yuze didn't expect his mother to go back together, which disrupted the plan a bit.

"Oh, in that case, mom won't go. If you're not around, mom will be nervous going out alone." Mrs. Situ was a little disappointed.

Situ Yuze put down the bowl and shook Mrs. Situ's hand: "Mother, for so many years, you have kept your father's spiritual tablet at home. It doesn't matter whether you go to Chengde or not. Your son can do it for you. The same goes for you staying with your father at home."

"okay."

In the afternoon, Situ Yuze and a small group of guards he selected had an early dinner and rode out of the city.

The military career Situ Yuze liked since he was a child is just like riding a horse to his heart's content.Where he can ride a horse, he doesn't like to ride a car.

Going north along the official road in the suburbs, after running for more than ten kilometers, it was close to the main railway line. The horse team galloped along the official road not far from the railway, along the mountain shadow of the setting sun.

When they entered Baoding Road, it was completely dark. Situ Yuze's horse team stopped to rest for a while, rested their horses, and continued on the road.Slow down and go to the post station of Situ's house in the suburbs to change horses, then return to the official road and run wildly all the way.

When it was less than two hundred miles away from Chengde, Situ Yuze changed horses for the second time.

At around three o'clock in the morning, a group of people entered a national pagoda tree forest.

Neither of the two people who went in head-on could make a sound, and the horse neighed and rolled off the horse, and then the horse also fell.

The few people galloping behind reacted quickly and pulled their horses, but couldn't help but rushed to the edge of the forest.

The moonlight has faded, and the morning light is coming.

Situ Yuze reined in his horse and walked around the edge of the forest, looking into the forest, alerted that there was someone on the tree.

He quietly took out his pistol, and under the moonlight, he instantly raised his hand and fired a few shots at places he thought possible.Sure enough, he hit a masked man in black and holding a long, thin-bladed machete and fell down from the tree.

"Young commander, the Japanese!"
