Lord please be gentle

Chapter 67 71 I'm back!

Putting down the tea bowl, Xiao Mei stood up and saluted Dugu Wan. "Thank you, Mr. Dugu, for your hospitality!"

"Miss Xiao, please do not be polite." Dugu Wan hurriedly got up to return the courtesy, with a modest smile on his handsome face. "Please just treat this place as your own home. If you need anything to eat, tell the servants. If there is something that is not well received, please correct me."

Xiao Mei was not relieved by the friendliness in his words, on the contrary, she faintly showed nervousness. "Am I going to be here long?"

Dugu Wan was slightly taken aback, probably surprised by her sensitivity. "Miss, worry too much. How long you stay is Miss Xiao's freedom. It's just that the current situation is turbulent, and there are turmoil outside. It's really inconvenient for you as a weak girl. Until you find a proper shelter, please live in a humble house temporarily. Although the Dugu family The power is weak, and it is not considered a famous family in the government and the public, but fortunately, the soldiers are self-respecting, and no one can control them at will. The girl lives here, it is safe."

"Thank you, Mr. Dugu, for your kindness. My daughter is not a person who doesn't know good and evil, so of course I appreciate your love." Xiao Mei hurriedly followed his words and continued: "It's just that my husband is deeply surrounded by Jin Yiwei, and his life and death are unknown. It's hard to be at ease. Please send troops to rescue Dugu as soon as possible!"

"This... of course!" Duguwan said happily. "Chen'er has already personally led an army of [-] to Shura Valley, and we will know before dawn."

Xiao Mei's eyes lit up, knowing that what she said to Nangong Yu had an effect, the Nangong family and the Dugu family did not want Jun Moxin to fall into Situ Xian's hands.As long as he can repel Jin Yiwei's army, relying on Jun Moxin's skill, he shouldn't have much problem in escaping.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mei's whole body was lifted. "I want to go to Shura Valley!"

For her request, Dugu Wan did not agree to her request, but she persuaded her patiently: "The soldiers in the Shura Valley are in turmoil, and it is the time when the two armies are fighting fiercely. You rush over there, and your swords and guns have no eyes. If you fall into the opponent's hands Instead, it became a bargaining chip for them to hold us back. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to wait here patiently and wait for the situation to become clear before going forward."

Xiao Mei is a quick-tempered person, she is often careless and careless, and will always make many mistakes.Therefore, she especially likes and admires men who are slow, wise, and connotative, and Jun Moxin is the best representative of them.Duguwan happened to belong to this type, so she naturally liked it.

"Young Master Dugu is right, but Jun Moxin is my husband...uh, it's my husband. In times of crisis, I can't abandon him. Besides, he's lost his mind, and I'm afraid he accidentally injured Dugu Jun. He and I Husband and wife are united, and it might be helpful for me to warn him." Just thinking of Jun Moxin's bloodshot eyes made her feel like a needle pricks her heart.At this time, she could no longer worry about who had more important status in his heart, she or Ling Feixue, and only wanted to save him from the fire pit first.

Seeing the anxiety and worry in Xiao Mei's eyes, Duguwan was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Then... alright!"

*
No matter what purpose Dugu Wan has, Xiao Mei is grateful for his understanding and tolerance.After all, it was not a wise thing to let her go back to Shura Valley at this time, what he needed was a hostage, not a useless dead person.

She believed that Duguchen brought her back to Dugu Mansion mostly to use her as a hostage to force Jun Mo to submit.If they can catch Jun Moxin.Now, Jun Moxin has become the target of the two major political enemies, the Prince Regent and the Nangong family. Xiao Mei, as Jun Moxin's newly married wife, naturally bears the brunt of it, and her social status has also risen. She has become the target of the two factions.

Under such circumstances, Duguwan still agreed to let Xiao Mei go to Shura Valley to find Jun Moxin, which was enough to make her feel grateful, and her impression of Duguwan immediately improved a lot.

Dugu Chen has already led [-] Dugu troops to Shura Valley, and when Xiao Mei left, Nangong Yu accompanied her.

At this time, it was almost midnight.Nangong Yu followed Dugu's lieutenant Jing Jun and led an army of [-] to Shura Valley.I don't know if it was because of the unhappiness that happened between the two of them in the carriage when they came here, on the way back to Shura Valley, Nangong Yu rode the horse and did not ride in the carriage with Xiao Mei again, nor spoke to her again.

so good.Xiao Mei was so anxious that she really didn't have the energy and mood to deal with Nangong Yu.For this person, in addition to her previous dislike, she has more contempt and hatred.

This boar!When it falls into her hands one day, she will not only ride on him and sing the improved version of Conquest, but she will flatten him until he is colorful, and then throw him into the pigsty to fall in love with a sow.In her opinion, a breeding pig like him should only be paired with a sow.

Thinking resentfully all the way, the woman gritted her silver teeth secretly.But as soon as she thought of Jun Moxin again, the resentment in her big eyes turned into worry again——I don't know what happened to him!

*
When Nangong Yu and Deputy General Jing Jun led an army of [-] to Shura Valley, the war was over!

The Duhu army definitely deserved its reputation. To deal with the Jinyiwei army, which is known for its rampant domineering, it pays more attention to combat efficiency, low-key and domineering.As long as troops are dispatched, the Dugu Army never says defeat.

Dugu Chen was directing his subordinates to clean up the battlefield, weapons, horses, arrow feathers... He never refused to come, and took everything into his pocket.

Over the years, because the emperor Situ Huang of the Tiansheng Dynasty was neglecting government affairs, the power fell into the hands of the eunuch Qi Zecheng and the regent Situ Xian, and the government became increasingly corrupt.Although the Dugu Army is stationed in Licheng, far away from Bianjing, the core location of the political struggle, it still develops quietly and never misses any opportunity to expand its strength.

In tonight's battle, Jin Yiwei was about to be driven away, and the regent King Situ Xian was clearly offended.Therefore, there is no need to deliberately disregard suspicions, and simply pack all the spoils into private pockets, as a military reward from heaven to the Dugu Army.

Xiao Mei jumped off the carriage, ran to Duguchen in three steps at a time, and asked anxiously, "Where is Jun Moxin?"

Although Jun Moxin is not the only person she cares about, it is Jun Moxin who she cares most about.

Duguchen was cleaning up the battlefield under the headquarters, when she heard Xiao Mei's questioning, she turned her head, but her face was full of indifference. "How do I know!"

"Why don't you know!" If it wasn't for that guy sitting on the tall horse, Xiao Mei who was standing on the ground would have slapped him on the head. "You arrived first! Didn't you see Situ Xian's subordinates leading an army to besiege Jun Moxin when you came back?"

Duguchen shook his head like a rattle, solemnly: "I really didn't see it! When I arrived, Jun Moxin had already disappeared!"

"It's gone!" Xiao Mei was even more anxious, grabbing the hem of his robe, wishing to drag him off the horse. "Where did he go!"

"Hey, what are you doing! Men and women don't know each other!" Duguchen is not a gentleman who does not see evil and does not touch evil, but when he saw Nangong Yu approaching with a gloomy face, he quickly confessed himself. "Don't touch me! Let go first!"

Not only did Xiao Mei not let go of him, she even clenched her tighter, as if she would never give up if he didn't speak clearly.

"What are you doing, let him go!" Nangong Yu came over, pushed Xiao Mei away extremely rudely, and finally freed Dugu Chen's crumpled robe hem. "Jun Moxin was captured by the Prince Regent's people, it's useless even if you keep pestering Brother Dugu!"

"Ah!" Xiao Mei was startled, almost stunned. "impossible!"

"How can it be impossible!" Nangong Yu got angry and said in a hurry, "Jin Yiwei dispatched thousands of troops, you really think Jun Moxin is a god!"

Xiao Mei was so choked that she couldn't speak, but tears flowed down her face.She didn't pay attention to Nangong Yu anymore, but ran to the high slope by herself, put her hands around her mouth, and screamed: "Jun Moxin, where are you? I'm back! I'm back! I'm back!"

In the silent valley, in the silent night, the heart-piercing screams of the woman echoed over the lonely Shura Valley, echoing for a long time.

*
The night was dark, and the dawn seemed far away.

Xiao Mei shouted loudly, but did not get a response from Jun Moxin, but called out some other people.

First of all, the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family came after hearing the news.With bulging bags on their backs, their faces were terrified, like sparrows in a frying pan.

"Is my sister-in-law crazy?"

"The devil has fallen into the devil's path!"

"His eyes are terrible, blood red like a devil!"

"Killing so many people, I'm scared to death! Cousin, you can stay away from him in the future, in case you are unconscious and accidentally hurt you..."

Xiao Mei waited for half a night but did not see Jun Moxin, but when these four live treasures arrived, she was in a terrible mood.She coldly looked at the bulging bags on the four brothers and sisters, and said coldly: "The gold, silver, pearls and jade that you carry on your back are all rewarded by him!"

Mentioning this, the four brothers and sisters all burst into forced smiles. "That's right, the devil's generous reward, don't dare to lose it!"

Because of Jun Moxin's kindness, they stopped gossiping about him, and expressed their concerns and offered advice.

"Thanks to the help of Mr. Yu and Mr. Dugu, it will be a matter of time to find my cousin and son-in-law!"

"The Dugu army is famous all over the world, and even Jin Yiwei fled after hearing the news!"

"Cousin, Mr. Yu and Mr. Dugu are so benevolent, they must not bear to see us displaced and starving."

"The whereabouts of the devil are unknown, Shura Valley has just been washed with blood, we are homeless, and we have to beg the two young masters to take us in temporarily!"

"Shut up!" Xiao Mei rubbed her painful head, annoyed. "Where's Yu Chan?"

At that time, Yuchan, Nangong Yu and others arrived in the study room almost at the same time, but they were arrested before Nangong Yu, master and servant.Among the chaotic army, it is not known whether it is life or death.

Seeing Xiao Mei's question, the brothers and sisters of the Wen family looked at each other and couldn't answer, even Nan Gongyu and others couldn't answer.

I had to send people to search for the location of the secret room, but it was almost razed to the ground, and even most of the entire Shura Hall collapsed, and the night was broken and the walls were left, showing a trend of decay.

Shura Valley is gone.Due to internal strife, foreign enemies invaded, internal troubles and foreign aggression, this is a devastating blow.

The whereabouts of Dao Feng and Jun Moxin are unknown, Gu Youming and Wu Ruyi are missing, and Gongsunyan is also missing.The key figures in Shura Valley were either missing or seriously injured, and all of them disappeared without a trace.Only the Shura Hall, which was mostly collapsed, stubbornly guarded the empty Shura Valley, leaving only empty and silent desolation in the night.

The soldiers sent to look for Yuchan returned and reported: "I have searched everywhere, but there is no trace of Miss Yuchan, and I found the corpses of several maids. After identification, none of them are Miss Yuchan, and I didn't see Lamei either!"

What does this mean?At least Yuchan is still alive!
Xiao Mei bit her lips, but her nasal cavity felt sour.After a long time, she barely controlled her emotions and asked, "Where's that lowly maid Lamei!"

If she can catch Lamei, she vows to cut her into pieces.

"I didn't find it either! They seem to have disappeared together!"

After pondering for a while, Xiao Mei had no choice but to accept a cruel fact. "No Yuchan and Lamei were found inside the maid's body, which means that they were both taken away! The ones who took them away...may be Wu Ruyi and Gu Youming, or someone they sent!"

It is impossible for Situ Xian's people to know the relationship between Yuchan and his sisters, only Wu Ruyi and Gu Youming know.Gu Youming was chased and killed by the blade, and his life and death are also unknown, so he probably has no ability to cause trouble.Therefore, Wu Ruyi is the most suspected.Besides, Lamei is from Wu Ruyi, so she was taken away together.

Looking at the empty and lonely valley, Xiao Mei felt for the first time the desolation of being empty.Earth-shaking changes have taken place here, her new home collapsed in a blink of an eye, the life and death of her newlywed husband is unknown, and even the closest maidservant, Yuchan, disappeared, and she was homeless again.

*
"Trash, all of them are trash! You have brought tens of thousands of people, but you still can't catch Jun Moxin, are you all dead! You, and your trash, can all find a piece of tofu Killed!"

After hearing the news of the defeat, Situ Xian was so furious that he scolded Song Xiangren, the coach who led the troops, bloody.

With Situ Xian's monstrous anger, Song Xiangren drooped his head and dared not argue.Zhuo Ke next to him also shrank his head, not daring to make any noise.

It wasn't until Situ Xian scolded enough that Song Xiangren said tremblingly: "Jun Moxin has fallen into the devil's way, his martial arts are amazing, even Daoist Wuhe was severely injured by him, and he led his subordinates to fight in blood. All died on the battlefield to live up to the lord's entrustment, but the sudden arrival of the Dugu army disturbed Junmo and let him escape. Seeing that there was no hope of dying, the humble officer led the army back to ask the lord to accept the crime!"

Speaking of Wuhe, Situ Xian seemed to be even more angry. "Ha, I boasted that he was still Jun Moxin's junior uncle. I originally thought that even if he couldn't beat Jun Moxin, he would be able to draw a tie. I didn't expect it to be so useless! The loss-making king even sent [-] elite soldiers over there. In addition, Gu Youming bribed Nei Ying to pour heat poison into Jun Moxin's tea, otherwise... he would be defeated by Jun with three tricks!"

Hearing that Situ Xian was quite annoyed at Wu He, Zhuo Ke rolled his eyes and took the opportunity to say: "I don't know if I should say something or not!"

"Speak up if you have something to say, don't hold back!" Situ Xian slapped the table hard.

Zhuo Ke was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said: "I see that Taoist Master Feng and Jun Mo are fighting hard, and it seems that he has lost the wind. He wanted to lead the army to help the battle, but Dao Changsheng is so strong that he won't allow us." As a result, he was seriously injured. When Jun's thief's qi shield was broken and our thousands of horses were fighting bloody battles, he actually... actually hated me for not helping us. He just watched from the sidelines and let Jun's thief go. !"

Because Wu He was Situ Xian's favorite, he was afraid that he would speak ill of himself and his immediate boss Song Xiangren in front of the regent. If Situ Xian became suspicious, both his and Song Xiangren's lives would be lost.Therefore, Zhuo Ke took advantage of Wuhe's serious injury before he had time to report it.

Sure enough, Situ Xian was originally disgusted because of Wuhe's "uselessness". Now when he heard that Wuhe was very happy, but also narrow-minded and ruined a major event, he suddenly became very angry.

Just at this time, someone came in and reported: "My lord, Master Qingfeng is asking to see you!"

"No!" Situ Xian flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "Tell him, this king will give him a chance to make meritorious service and atone for his sins. If he can get Xue Bodhisattva to be the regent princess, this king will make him the head of the country. If he can't do this Let him not have to come to see this king in the future!"

*
At dawn, the spies finally brought back news that someone saw Jun Moxin heading towards Mount Li.

Hearing this news, Nangong Yu and Duguchen exchanged glances, and they both saw seriousness in each other's gazes.

As a native of Licheng, when it comes to Lishan, everyone knows it.However, very few people have actually entered Lishan Mountain, and none of them have really come back alive.

Lishan is towering and steep, but that's not what stops people from climbing it.The world only keeps it secret because its owner is Snow Bodhisattva.

Snow Bodhisattva is famous and powerful, but so far no one has seen her true face.It is rumored that she is a fairy-like figure who lives in the Snow Lotus Palace in Lishan and lives a fairy-like life.But she hated being disturbed by outsiders, so anyone who entered the forbidden area of ​​Mount Li would disappear mysteriously, and no one was alive or dead.

After a long time, Lishan became a place of death shrouded in a mysterious and terrifying atmosphere. People talked about it, and unless they were tired of life, they would never approach it.Even within a radius of dozens of miles around Lishan Mountain, few people set foot on it, except for birds and beasts, there are few people.

Hearing that Jun Moxin was going in the direction of Mount Li, it seemed a bit unexpected, but it was reasonable.

Jun Moxin was hunted down by the Prince Regent Situ Xian regardless of the cost, and there were only ruins left in the Shura Valley, so he could only flee to places that ordinary people dare not set foot on.Mount Li is undoubtedly his best refuge, but the Snow Bodhisattva, who has made the world's eyes change, has not seen that he can do anything to him.

To fight against thousands of troops with one's own strength, except for Jun Moxin, there is no one before or after.So can Snow Bodhisattva, the legendary dragon who sees his head but never tail, defeat him?

This is an unknown suspense!

"Going to Mount Li is dangerous, and many people will get in the way." After thinking about it, Nangong Yu said to Duguchen: "Lend me a hundred elite soldiers, and I can let Zheng En accompany me!"

It is rare for Duguchen to stop laughing, and said seriously: "I, Duguchen, have always regarded my brothers as brothers and sisters. How can I let you go into danger alone at a critical moment? It is too small to look down on me, Duguchen. Could it be that I am the one who is greedy for life and afraid of death? A careless person who doesn't care?"

Hearing Duguchen's generous speech, Nangong Yu was very moved, but he still shook his head: "We brothers said words from the bottom of our hearts together, so I'm not afraid of your annoyance, you are different from me. Although the Dugu family is supported by your eldest brother , but his body is weak, whether he can continue his heirs is a problem. You shoulder the heavy responsibility of spreading the branches and leaves of the Dugu family, how can you take risks easily. And I have two younger brothers who can inherit the incense of the Nangong family !"

"Brother Nangong!" Duguchen couldn't help sobbing, and said in a broken voice, "You shouldn't take risks easily! How can your two younger brothers take on the important task of honoring the Nangong family? Don't forget the high hopes that Wei Guogong and the imperial concubine have on you!"

"No more persuasion!" Nangong Yu turned around stubbornly, with no room for maneuver. "I've made up my mind!"

Ever since his mother disappeared, he vowed to find her, even if what he found after a narrow escape was only a bone, he could feel at ease, otherwise he would not be able to have peace day and night.

This strong thought is enough to overwhelm other temptations. Even if he is the eldest son of the Nangong family, even if his life is in danger, he still cannot change his original intention.

"I'll accompany you to Mount Li!"

Although Duguchen really wanted to say this sentence, it didn't come from his mouth.A crisp female voice suddenly sounded from the side, interrupting the conversation between the two.

Both of them turned their heads sideways, seeing that Xiao Mei appeared beside them at some point, and he should have listened to their conversation.

Under the light of the flickering torch, her pretty face was a little too pale, but her big eyes were black and bright like crystal diamonds. At this time, her expression was calm and determined, and her words clanged: "I have the same goal as you, and I want to Find Jun Moxin!"

Duguchen touched his nose, expressing his speechlessness.

Nangong Yu's face became even more ugly, and he groaned deep in his nostrils: "You are just going to die together!"

"I am willing!" Xiao Mei choked back without hesitation.

Nostrils flaring, Nangong Yu panted for a while, and then said in a buzzing voice: "Okay, if you want to be buried with me, come together!"

*
Under Nangong Yu's insistence, Duguchen left only a hundred elite soldiers, and left Nangong Yu at the fork in tears.He took Dugu Dajun with him, and at the same time he brought along the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family.

Xiao Mei asked Duguchen to bring the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family back to Dugu Mansion to live temporarily, and make arrangements for them when she comes back.At the same time, she confessed that if she couldn't come back, let them use the gold, silver and jewelry in their bags to start a small business to buy real estate, grain fields and so on, and stop doing nothing.

Although she only met Dugu Wan once, she felt that he was a very humble and gentlemanly man.She believed that he would never refuse something that could be solved by snapping his nails.Because it is the basic demeanor of a gentleman not to refuse a lady's small request.

In Xiao Mei's heart, Dugu Wan is an out-and-out gentleman.

The four brothers and sisters of the Wen family parted with Xiao Mei in tears, begging her to come back alive.

"We four brothers and sisters in this world only have our eldest cousin to rely on. You are our backbone. Without you, we don't know how to live in the future. Even if we have a wealth of millions, we will eventually be astigmatized!" Thinking of the old Wen family by From its heyday to its decline, Wenshan was quite emotional.

Although the luggage of the four brothers and sisters is full of gold and silver rewarded by Jun Moxin in Shura Valley, if they don't have a good mind and make a living, it is probably only a matter of time before they lose all these treasures.

Wen Yu and Wen Qiu's sisters were tearful, they held Xiao Mei's arms respectively, and begged, "Cousin, can you not go!"

"No!" Xiao Mei's refusal was firm, without any room for negotiation.

Wen Qiu reminded in a low voice: "I think Mr. Yu seems to have no more love for his cousin. If he is still willing..."

"Shut up!" Xiao Mei glared at her, and Wen Qiu immediately fell silent.

Wen Yu hurriedly persuaded: "The life and death of the devil is unknown. It is too early to say this at this time. It is good for my cousin to look for it. I have tried my best. If I really can't find the devil, then I will have a clear conscience to remarry Mr. Yu." !"

Xiao Mei turned her head and left, only yelled to Duguchen: "Tell you big brother, my four cousins ​​will ask him to take care of you for now. If I haven't come back after three months, ask him to help you resettle me, thank you." !"

*
Duguchen left behind a hundred elite soldiers, in addition to Nangong Yu's confidant Zheng En, General Longxiang Zhou Zheng, Xiao Mei and others.After they were fully equipped, they headed towards Mount Li.

The trip to Lishan was dangerous and unpredictable, Nangong Yu didn't want to drag innocent people down, this made Xiao Mei's impression of him a little bit different.In fact, she didn't know about the close relationship between the Nangong family and the Dugu family.

Although the Nangong family has a prominent position and power, they do not have actual military power.And the friendship between the Dugu army and the Nangong family is equivalent to the solid backing of the Nangong family, and it is also the military talisman that the Nangong family holds in their hands.As the eldest son of the Nangong family, Nangong Yu would easily risk the lives of [-] Dugu soldiers.

He may not be able to give up the obsession in his heart for many years, but he understands which is more important, and will never let his willfulness hinder the future of the Nangong family.

No words all the way, just hurrying on.

Xiao Mei didn't take the carriage.Although there was a carriage, but there were luggage and some daily necessities in it, she did not take the carriage, but rode with Nangong Yu and others.

Seeing Nangong Yu's preoccupied appearance, and his usual arrogance and arrogance, Xiao Mei knew that this trip was indeed full of hardships and dangers.

"What kind of person is Snow Bodhisattva? Is it a demon or a fairy, what does he look like, and how old is he?" Xiao Mei was a person who couldn't stop talking.What's more, she urgently needs to know Xue Bodhisattva, so that she can accurately judge how to deal with it next.

Unexpectedly, Nangong Yu just rolled her eyes to answer her series of questions.

"Hey, don't be so petty and hold grudges!" Xiao Mei protested very dissatisfied. "Didn't you bully me too! I didn't care about you!"

Although she is not a person with a small belly, she doesn't care at all.Nangong Yu's behavior towards her by Meng Lang in the carriage still made her worry, but this small point was not so important compared to her desire to see Jun Moxin.Therefore, Xiao Mei decided to shake hands with him and make peace.After all, in the following journey, they need to be united and advance and retreat together to be more likely to achieve their goals.

"You go back!" Nangong Yu suddenly reined in the horse, and looked at Xiao Mei with a serious face. "If I can find him, I will definitely bring him back to meet you!"

Xiao Mei seriously doubted: "You would be so kind!"

Nangong Yu snorted coldly: "I haven't finished yet! I will take him back to meet you, and then kill him in front of you!"

Xiao Mei was furious, raised the whip in her hand and whipped it at Nangong Yu.While dodging, he grabbed her whip and pulled it hard, and she fell towards him involuntarily.

Actually, Xiao Mei's riding skills are not very good.Although he had practiced horseback riding in the police academy before, he couldn't compare with the ancients who grew up on horseback.Therefore, Nangong Yu didn't expend much effort when he captured her on his horse.

"Nangong Yu, I don't want to quarrel with you!" Xiao Mei didn't want to engage in unnecessary fights, she just wanted to find Jun Moxin as soon as possible. "I won't go back until I meet Jun Moxin! Also, I know more than you, and I'm smarter than you. Maybe I can understand many things that you can't understand!"

"Ha, you always like to brag! I've known you for so long, but I really don't see how you're smarter than me!" Nangong Yu sneered disdainfully, but didn't insist anymore. "Since you want to die with me, I won't stop you!"

"Hey, I can ride a horse myself, let me go!" Xiao Mei resolutely refused to ride a horse with him, because this guy has a criminal record. "I want to take this opportunity to eat my sister's tofu! Nangong Yu, you scum!"

"Thank you." Nan Gongyu's face was comparable to a city wall, and he didn't think he was disobedient at all. "Congratulations!"

Xiao Mei was about to faint from his anger, and kept struggling in his embrace.Nangong Yu clamped the horse's belly with his legs, speeded up, and laughed loudly: "You ride too slowly, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up!"

This is true.As Nangong Yu accelerated his speed, Zheng En and Zhou Zheng also caught up, followed by a hundred cavalrymen.All of them have superb riding skills, they are all above Xiao Mei.

Therefore, Xiao Mei swallowed back the words that scolded Nangong Yu.She couldn't slow down the entire team because of herself, she would never do such a stupid thing.

*
Duguchen brought back [-] Dugu troops, and arrived at the dormitory of his eldest brother Duguwan without touching his feet. He also brought the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family along the way.

After the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family got off the carriage, they followed the striding Duguchen, trotting panting all the way.After passing through many gates, courtyards and guard posts, he finally came to the dormitory of Duguwan, the head of the Dugu family.

Because Duguchen didn't let them stay outside to wait for the news, the four of them followed Duguchen all the way into the bamboo garden in the backyard.

It's the middle of winter, the flowers are at zero, the trees are withered, but the bamboo is still green and full of vitality.The huge bamboo garden has a well-organized layout. As soon as you step in, you can hear the melodious sound of the piano, which makes the bamboo garden more and more elegant.

When he walked up to the piano player, he realized that he was a handsome young man of 25 or [-] years old, wearing a blue ink-colored brocade robe embroidered with Chi, a hairband of the same texture tied his long ink-colored hair, and a carved piece of silk was tied around his waist. Chi Yujue is not seen wearing any weapons.The eyebrows and eyes are handsome, the pupils are as black as ink but still warm, the whole person is like a fine jade, eye-catching but not aggressive.

Slender, bamboo-like fingers plucked the strings, and the melodious notes flowed like pearls and jade, which made people addicted.However, Duguchen lacked patience, obviously not in the mood to appreciate his brother's beautiful piano sound, so he interrupted directly: "Brother, I'm here to say goodbye to you!"

He obviously just came back, but he told his elder brother to say goodbye.Moreover, he was so anxious that he couldn't even wait for his brother to finish playing the song.

Duguchen has always respected his eldest brother as a god.There was no doubt that his behavior at this time was so different from his usual behavior that it was really surprising.

"Zheng!" Duguwan stopped playing the piano, slowly raised his head, and a gleam of light flashed in his warm black pupils.His lips were pursed tightly, but no words came out.Obviously, he was waiting for his brother to speak.

Looking at the respected elder brother, Duguchen's confidence was just a little lower, and when he spoke again, he became less confident. "I brought back thirty thousand Solitary Soldiers! But I can't leave brother Nangong behind and let him go to Lishan to die alone, I'm going to accompany him!"

"Well," Duguwan understood, he slowly lowered his eyes, and while plucking the strings with his fingers, he said slowly: "You plan to go to Lishan to accompany him to die!"

"Brother, brother Nangong and I are brothers!" Duguchen clenched his fists and shouted impulsively: "If this happened to me, I believe he will also accompany me!"

Duguwan's lips curled up a faint smudge, it couldn't be said whether it was ridicule or helplessness. "You and I are siblings of the same mother. If you go to die, should your elder brother accompany you, otherwise, wouldn't you be sorry for the brotherhood!"

There were no violent words, but a simple sentence refuted Dugu Chen, who was righteous and Bo Yuntian, who wished to accompany Nangong Yu to die immediately, was speechless.

Duguchen knew that regardless of eloquence or strategy, ten of them together could not match up with his elder brother.He simply closed his eyes stubbornly, with a face full of resistance. "No matter what big brother says, I can't abandon Brother Nangong. We will live together and die together, and there will be no regrets in death!"

Seeing Duguchen's expression of seeing death as home, Duguwan didn't argue with him, but turned to the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family behind Duguchen, and asked, "Who are these four?"

Originally, the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family saw the two brothers of the Dugu family arguing, and they all kept quiet, trying to minimize their presence, for fear that one of them would accidentally become someone's punching bag, and who would let them be on other people's territory.But he never thought that even if he didn't say a word, Duguwan would take the initiative to ask about them, and he couldn't help being overwhelmed for a while, and saluted Duguwan in a hurry.

"Little man Wenshan (Wenhai) has met Dugu Shizi!" The two brothers smiled flatteringly while talking.

"Little girl Wenyu (Wen Qiu) has met Dugu's son!" The two sisters looked shyly at Duguwan while lowering their heads.

On the way here, the Wen sisters also tried to flirt with Duguchen, but unfortunately Duguchen was so preoccupied with Nangong Yu's life and death that he didn't have the mood to pay any attention to them, and even rubbed the ashes on his nose.At this time, when I arrived at Dugu Mansion, I saw that Dugu Wan, the real male master of the Dugu family, was actually gentle and handsome, and I couldn't help being moved again.

Duguwan's eyes flickered, and she looked at Duguchen with a half-smile, obviously he was asking about the origins of the four of them.

"Miss Xiao asked me to bring it back!" Duguchen simply relayed Xiao Mei's instructions. "She also accompanied Brother Nangong to Mount Li. Before leaving, she entrusted the four cousins ​​of her uncle's family to the elder brother to take care of them. She said that if she could not come back within three months, the elder brother would help them buy Tianfang!"

When Xiao Mei was mentioned, the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family hurriedly put on tears to show their deep feelings for Xiao Mei, because they could see that since Xiao Mei entrusted them to Dugu Wan to take care of them, they should have a good relationship with him.Although, they had no idea when Xiao Mei and Dugu Wan met and became friends.

Duguwan was silent for a moment, this moment was as long as half a year for the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family.Just when they were trembling with fear that the other party would not take him in, he finally spoke again - "Take him down!"

Everyone was shocked, and following Duguwan's gaze, they realized that Duguchen had already quietly walked a long way while they were talking, and was about to slip away.

Following Duguwan's order, more than a dozen guards with knives appeared in the originally quiet bamboo garden, and soon intercepted Duguchen and surrounded them.

"Brother, I have to accompany Brother Nangong, you can't stop me!" Duguchen shouted impulsively.

Duguwan didn't even look at him, and only ordered the guards: "Take him down, take him to the torture room, and reflect on him for three days!"

Tears welled up in Dugu Chenjun's eyes, but he did not resist forcefully, allowing the guards with knives to take him down and escort him to the execution room as ordered.But, aggrieved and unwilling, he turned around and defended: "If you were the one who went to Lishan today, I would do the same!"

"Wrong," Dugu Wan said flatly, "I won't go to Mount Li!"

Two short sentences separated the distance between him and Nangong Yu.

Dugu Chen's handsome eyes were gloomy, and he had nothing to say.That's right, my elder brother is a wise and restrained person, and he never does things like Nangong Yu willfully and impulsively.Knowing that there are tigers in the mountain, he prefers to go to the mountain. Such a stupid thing, my brother will never do that.

Although the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family are all people who eat melons, they can also feel that Dugu Wan is unfathomable from the short dialogue between the two Dugu brothers.They all looked up at the fairy-like man in front of them with reverent eyes, and when they were about to say something to flatter them, they felt ashamed in his crystal-like eyes, and felt that their small thoughts could not be concealed at all. his eyes.

While feeling uneasy, Dugu Wan spoke again, her tone was still gentle and polite: "A visitor is a guest, not to mention Miss Xiao and I hit it off right away, of course, when she is away, I will treat the four of you as a landlord."

Hearing that Duguwan was so polite, the four of them immediately beamed with joy, and hurriedly bowed and saluted again without stopping to express their thanks.

Dugu Wan listened with a smile on her lips, and there was no sign of displeasure due to the non-stop nagging of the four of them.

Xue Qihua walked over and smiled in a gentle manner: "Meals have been prepared for the four of you, and the journey is exhausting. Please go to the back hall to have a meal and drink tea to rest!"

The four of them couldn't help being overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly bowed to Dugu Wan, thanked Duguwan a thousand times, and went down to the back hall for dinner led by the two maids.Of course, the Wen family sisters did not forget to wink at him a few times, turning around every step of the way, reluctant to part with him.

When the four brothers and sisters of the Wen family left, the smile on Duguwan's face slowly faded away, leaving only a dark glint in her pupils.

"Immediately send the spy Feige to send a letter to Bianjing to report to the imperial concubine that Nan Gongyu is going to Lishan alone, it is extremely dangerous, please help the imperial concubine quickly!" Duguwan ordered.

"Yes!" Xue Qihua nodded, his eyes showed admiration and approval: "Young master has a good plan. The only way now is to force Eunuch Qi to help!"

No matter how favored Nangongying was, she was only a woman in the deep palace. As for her nephew, who was thousands of miles away, what could she do, but force Qi Zecheng to take action.

Qi Zecheng is extremely powerful, and Dongchang is full of masters. In order to please Nangongying, he will spare no effort to save Nangongyu.Even if they can't be rescued in the end, the Nangong family will think that Qi Zecheng's work is not good, and they won't blame the Dugu family.

Dugu Wan easily threw this hot potato to Qi Zecheng!
When Xue Qihua stepped back, Dugu Wan's handsome and thin face was strangely pale, coughing lightly and breathing heavily.He hurriedly untied a jade bottle from his waist, uncorked the bottle, poured out two red pills, and ate them.

After about half a cup of tea, the coughing gradually stopped, and the breath gradually stabilized.

An anxious look of annoyance flashed across the handsome eyes of the man, and his body became more and more unbearable.
