Chapter 56 Pursuit
To Li Ying's surprise, even though they sent hundreds of servants to search the entire Lingshan Mountain the next day, they didn't even find Li Xuan's shadow.

Li Ying's heart sank more and more. Could it be that his younger brother was really devoured by wild beasts, not even his bones remained?
Although she told herself over and over again that it was impossible, brother could not die so easily, but after she came out of the mountain, she was still as if she had lost her soul, with powerless eyes, and she was forced into the carriage by Hsinchu and returned to Li's Mansion .

"Ying'er, your brother still doesn't want to go back?" Zhao Minyi asked strangely when he saw that there were only Li Ying and Xinzhu in the carriage.

"mother……"

Looking at Li Ying's bloodless face and pale lips, Zhao Minyi was startled: "Ying'er, what's wrong with you, what's wrong?"

"Mother, Xuan'er is gone."

"Disappeared?" Zhao Minyi thought that Li Xuan had gone somewhere as usual: "When he comes back, mother will give him a good beating."

"No mother, Xuan'er has disappeared for two whole days!" Li Ying finally told the sad news.

Zhao Minyi hasn't reacted yet: "Ying'er, didn't you say yesterday that Brother Ni refused to return to Lingshan Taoist temple?"

"That's what I lied to you... Brother, he has been missing since yesterday morning. I sent people to turn Lingshan upside down, but there is no sign of brother!" Li Ying finished speaking in one breath. Soft, almost fell to the ground.

"What did you say?!" Zhao Minyi's eyes widened in disbelief: "Then where did Xuan'er go?"

"I just told Ah Fu that I would go for a walk in the mountains to get some fresh air, but who would have thought that I would come back after I went, mother, brother, I will..."

"Yes, yes!" Zhao Minyi shook his head desperately: "Xuan'er, I will be fine, I must be playing naughty with you."

Even though Zhao Minyi said that, Li Xuan saw that your hands were trembling consciously.

Before Li Ying learned about this, she was calmer than the seven mother and boy: "They want to scare themselves first, maybe I'm in Lingshan after all, but I went somewhere else?"

"Xuan'er is not only practicing martial arts, but also studying. I also see that I don't have any friends. Where can I go? I can always search the capital city. I know that I have to find the year of the monkey!" Zhao Minyi stomped his feet slowly.

"Report to the officer first." Li Ying was the first to make the decision.

The eight people went to the government to report to the government. Li Xuan's drawing skills were so good that he drew Li Huan's appearance on Baliang, and the officials posted Mei Shan's portrait in various conspicuous places in the city.

"Father, is that really useless?" Li Xuan looked at the portraits of Li Xuan hanging everywhere in the small street, feeling confident.

"It's useless and useful, let's try it out. If that scumbag was in the capital, I would feel ashamed, and if he said yes, he would blow me out. If I were in the capital, there might be no other clues. "

In the next few days, Li Xuan arranged staff everywhere in the capital, such as inns and martial arts halls, where Li Huan might appear, but there was no news of them.

On the seventh day of Li Huan's disappearance, Zhao Minyi and Li Xuan couldn't wait to live anymore.

"Father, that's the way to wait."

"What did he say?"

"You...you go to the palace to beg the Empress Dowager, and ask you to help find a way."

"Nonsense, use that kind of private matter to bother the Empress Dowager."

"Li Ying, Xuan'er, am I his biological son? I've been seeing you for seven days, and you can see that he's taking it easy!" Zhao Minyi suppressed it for seven days, and at that moment all the anger he had accumulated was directed towards Li Ying. Ying threw her head down.

"Of course you should be slow about what he said, but it's useful to be slow." Li Ying actually fell asleep or fell asleep after eating and drinking for a few days, but I was willing to show it.

"That's what he said! It's useless!" Zhao Minyi almost pointed at Li Ying's nose and cursed.

"Okay, dad, mom, let's stop arguing..."

Li Xuan was about to persuade the fight, when Hsinchu suddenly ran back and passed on: "Master, madam, there is no one here with a portrait of Master to ask to see you!"

Li Ying's eyes lit up: "Take your time, please come back!"

Very slowly, a farmer's woman dressed as a man walked back to Li's residence: "I have seen Mrs. Li, I have seen my wife and eldest sister."

After Zhao Minyi got busy, he asked the portrait of Li Huan in the peasant woman's hand, "He has seen your son?"

The peasant woman nodded, and Zhao Minyi almost cried with joy: "Where am I, your son... I know that your whole family is looking for me, that conscientious one..."

The peasant woman said calmly, "Master, madam, if I tell them, they will betray me."

Hearing those words, Li Ying and the others were confused: "What are you betraying? Let's talk about it first."

The peasant woman stomped her feet, gritted her teeth and said, "Their sons are good people, so I'll just bet that they are also good people!"

"If he can tell your son's whereabouts, you will be very grateful."

"Yes, yes." The peasant woman hurriedly waved her hands: "I have already received the kindness of Master Li Huan, so I can accept them again."

Li Xuan also understood what the peasant woman said, what kind of betrayal, what kindness, what favor?
What the hell did Li Huan do!
The peasant woman took a sip of her tea and said eloquently: "The woman of my family died when she was fighting with the little golden dog thief more than ten years later. Time was so kind to me, and I was a single heir for eight generations. After much deliberation, I still gave birth to that baby, and I thought it was another girl.

Who knew that it was so difficult for me to bring up that doll, and this little Jin Guo who suffered a thousand knives is here again!My son is just 17 years old, logically he has to go to the battlefield, but I have this worry in my heart, I am really afraid that if the woman dies and the baby dies, how will I live in my previous life..."

Speaking of that, the peasant woman burst into tears, Li Xuan handed you the handkerchief, and Zhao Minyi wiped away her tears, that is a miserable person.

"Come here, does it have anything to do with Li Huan?" Li Ying asked.

"Li Xiaoren, don't delay, he listened to me to continue. I was worrying about that matter. If God has no eyes, on this day, I took my daughter to this conscription station to order. The door was stopped by a big master."

"Is it Li Huan?"

The peasant woman nodded with a smile. Your teeth are bright and white against your dark skin, which makes people feel kind.

"Master Duo pulled my mother and I to the side and asked my son if he wanted to go to war. My son said he wanted to go. Master Duo asked me why. I said that there was only my mother outside the house. If I went to war, I was hungry and sick in my hometown, and was bullied by bullies outside the village, so someone took care of me. I was a relative, so I wanted to go.

I was moved when I heard this, and Grandpa was also very moved. I said that there was no way to make my baby use it for war. When I heard it, I got excited and asked Grandpa what to do.

Duo Ye secretly told my mother and I, let me take me back, and I can pretend to be my baby and go to war for my baby! "

Speaking of that, everyone was dumbfounded.

"He...he meant, I, Xuan'er, went to the frontier with Xiaojun to fight?!" Zhao Minyi almost brought it up in one breath.

The peasant woman nodded with certainty: "I specially saw off Lord Duo at the side of the street today!"

"That traitor! What a crime! Master, what should we do!" Zhao Minyi cried and cursed, tears streaming down his face.

Only then did Li Xuan recall the next scene: "Father, did he remember that when we were having dinner later, Brother once insisted on asking my husband to secretly arrange for me to retreat from the army?"

"Remember, you asked me to go, I almost flipped the table with you."

"Brother also made a noise at the time, who knew that I would be so wicked that I thought of such a cowardly method and retreated!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...that bastard, he was born to pay debts!"
"Why are they always scolding Mr. Duo, I think Mr. Li Huan is really a very good person." The peasant woman couldn't help speaking loudly for Li Huan.

Li Xuan laughed: "Auntie, what he said is right, Li Huan is a good man, but what I did was against military regulations."

"I know what military regulations are military regulations. I just know that Master Li Huan saved my mother's life." The peasant woman was very persistent about that.

"Little aunt, why didn't he come here until today?"

"Master Li Huan was afraid that it would be discovered that I replaced my baby, so he asked my mother and I to go to the city to avoid the limelight, saying that we would come back after the limelight passed. I just went back to the city quietly today. Seeing the portrait of Master Li Huan, I hurried to find it."

"Thank goodness, little aunt, he really did you a little favor, Hsinchu, bring some dishes to my little aunt."

"It is useful." The peasant woman waved her hands again and again: "I said, I can receive the kindness of their Li family again, I will burn incense and worship Buddha at home every day, and pray to God that the good man Li Huan will not be rewarded, and live in peace." return."

"Thank you, little aunt. You are worried. About Li Huan joining the army for his son, your family is absolutely tight-lipped. You want to let others know."

The peasant woman was relieved then, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Miss, he is really good-looking and kind-hearted!"

After sending away the terrific peasant woman and aunt, the whole family looked at you, and you looked at him, and at the beginning they sighed in unison.

That Li Huan is really reassuring.

"Father, mother, what should we do now?"

Li Ying counted: "You mean, let me go, the child is born by the father and the mother."

"He is so heartless!" Zhao Minyi poked Mei Shan's forehead in front of Mei Shan, and gave a little face: "You must bring me back!"

"He has been away for eight days, where is he going to get him back?" Li Ying was already having a headache.

"You don't care! He has to figure out a way. If there is nothing wrong with his son, you are the only one to ask him!"

"I'll pay him for your old life, okay?"

"Mei Shan, what does he mean?!"

The two agreed, and quarreled over the matter again.

"Father, mother, stop!!!" Li Xuan couldn't help shouting out after being quarreled so loudly.

The two finally calmed down, and turned their heads to look at Li Xuan in unison.

"You don't have an idea."

"What's the idea?"

"He speaks slowly!"

"You want to investigate it yourself. If brother really regrets going to war with the army, you are also begging. If I want to stay here, then you can take me back to Beijing."

"Then... he's going?" Li Ying asked worriedly.

"Father, Nan and you, who were infected with Xiaoshui and plagued by the plague, have gone. Is there any place in the sky that you dare to go?"

"Yes, the journey here is difficult and dangerous, and there are wars, if you see Xuan'er, what should you do if you encounter the test first, it is a success." Zhao Minyi shook his head again and again.

"Mother, he treats you as an eight-year-old boy, and you will report to the Empress Dowager after you go out, and ask you to send a few personal underlings to protect you. Besides, your husband is in the army, and you will have nothing to do when you get here." Take care, you will be married."

It must be said that Li Xuan's words are very unconvincing.In the end, between being a reliable son and a reliable man, Zhao Minyi resolutely chose to marry a man.

"Ying'er, he really wants to be vague?"

Mei Shan nodded in agreement, in fact, you don't have a big selfish intention to go after this time.

You miss me, really, really miss me.

*
When Mei Shan retired from the palace this time, apart from asking for help from the Empress Dowager, there was nothing else she had to tell the Empress Dowager about - the truth that you learned from Qifang Junior Master.

Mei Shan originally thought that the Queen Mother would lose her temper or shed tears, but it was either.

It's too intense.

"Grandmother, is he interested?"

The Empress Dowager laughed and said, "Nothing? The Ai family would be pleased with anything Lian'er did for him."

"Grandma, will he blame me for lying to him..."

"How could it be? At the age of Aijia, I have long understood that the so-called wrong fate is to seek comfort. It is not only a shield for a loving person, but also a touchstone for a ruthless person. Lianer, my feelings for him are true enough, Deep enough so nothing gets in the way of me."

Li Xuan raised his head shyly, but his heart was surging.

"By the way, Grandmother, you want to go to the frontier."

The queen said with a smile: "The relationship between the two of them is getting better and better, so it's okay to separate for a moment?"

Li Xuan quickly explained: "Yes, yes, yes, you went to find your younger brother."

"Okay, okay." The Empress Dowager laughed even louder: "I'm looking for his younger brother, and his husband by the way, right?"

"Emperor Grandmother, he said, let me send you someone."

"He has made up his mind, how can the Ai family stop him? If the Ai family is for him, he has to find someone else to go here."

Li Xuan knew that the Empress Dowager agreed: "Thank you, Grandmother!"

The expression on Xiao Lian's face every time he looked at Li Xuan came to the mind of the Queen Mother: "If Lian'er knew that he went to look for me, she would be so depressed that she would be from ear to ear."

In fact, Li Xuan is also looking forward to seeing my own reaction, so it will be a surprise to me.

"But there is no point, he must guarantee his own danger, otherwise Aijia will have a way to explain to Lian'er, remember, if something really happens, one word, run away!"

Li Xuan nodded: "Ying'er remembered."

The seven grandparents and grandchildren talked for a while, and they didn't leave until Li Xuan got tired of talking before the empress dowager.

After leaving the palace, you deliberately climbed down this newly-repaired Xuanwu Gate, witnessed countless swords and swords, life and death, and overlooked a bustling capital city. Li Xuan was filled with emotion.

Facing that palace wall, you once resisted, were afraid, and wanted to escape, but now you are free to come and go, and it has even become your half home.

And it all started with one person.

Xiao Lian, wait for you!
