Wishful Things

Wu Chao looked at the Red Mountain in the distance.

Ming, Qing.

This is what the second uncle has been asking for all his life. He wishes that there will be no injustice in the world, but has he ever achieved the true "clearness"?

And the second uncle will be buried here from now on, not the concubine of the Wu family, not the son of Emperor Baoqing, or just a layman of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, maybe he can really calm down and meditate on this way of clarity.

This place is only tens of miles away from Ningyang City. If the second uncle figured it out one day, he could go home and have a look.

Wu An slowly poured a jug of sake in front of the tomb.

In the ears, the mountains and the sky are singing, and the sound of the water is quiet.

Being in it makes people feel peaceful, as if they are far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.

In some days, the snow-white mountain top in winter should be a good scene.

Spring comes to revive, and everything wakes up the green hills.

In summer, there are shades of green bamboos, colorful butterflies all over the mountains, or wild cats in the mountains guarding the shallow streams waiting to catch a fish.

The scenery of the four seasons seemed to flash before Wu Chao's eyes, and an idea popped into his mind—it was indeed a good place, and when he was free, he would choose a place for himself and Zhao Zhao, and use it a hundred years later.

Of course, the main thing is that Zhao Zhao likes it.

I have to find an opportunity to ask Zhao Zhao for his opinion.

He had a very good plan, but after thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that Zhao Zhao had told him that the second uncle of the Xu family was reprimanded by Mr. Xu for picking a grave for him...

You have to know that it's still Uncle Xu who picks and chooses.

If the old man found out that he was going to choose Zhaozhao's grave, he would probably be beaten to death...

Thinking about it this way, no matter how you look at it, it is indeed somewhat unlucky...

Therefore, this thought only flashed through the young man's mind, and was quickly extinguished.

After returning home, Wu Chao went into the study, sat down and wrote letters.

It took more than half an hour to write this letter.

"Give it to Sui Jiang, so that someone can send it out as soon as possible." After sealing the wax with his own hands, Wu Chao handed the letter to A Yuan.

Ah Yuan responded "Yes", took it over and pinched——

It's still as thick as a familiar book...

No need to ask, this must be for Miss Xu.

The letter was sent out quickly, and when it arrived in Linyuan, it was already ten days later.

Now that the situation is chaotic, it is inevitable to spend more time on the road.

In Linyuan City, as soon as Xu Mingyi returned to the house from the government office, Akui held the letter in front of her: "Miss, a letter from Ningyang."

Xu Mingyi took it, and opened it impatiently before sitting down.

While unfolding the letter paper, she sat down in the sofa chair by the window.

The warm afternoon sun shines on the girl's fingers and the letter paper through the window lattice.

In the letter, Wu Chao mentioned the battle in Ningyang City.

He won this battle very well, and the deed of sending a letter of persuasion in the mountains spread, and she had heard of it long before this letter was sent.

But what he heard was somewhat different from the truth, far less detailed than what he said in his letter.

In addition, he also detailed the internal thieves in the Wu clan.

This was also what she was most concerned about - in fact, the plan of King Dingnan and Wu Chao's suspended animation was made before leaving Linyuan, and she knew about it.

For this reason, after the news of Wu Chao's accident spread, because her reaction was not sad enough, Ming Shi even scolded her for being too fickle... In the end, it was she who quietly explained the inside story to the boy in advance. It was able to get rid of the stigma of being a poor lover and all women in the world.

The purpose of this feigned death was to lure out the traitors and clean up the inside of the Wu family.

At the beginning, Wu Chao suspected that the mole was among the two, but now he came to the conclusion that neither of them was clean...

One of them was his second uncle.

Wu Jingling, the second master of the Wu family...

Even though she didn't stay in the Dingnan Palace for too long in her previous life, and was drowsy all day long, she also knew that Wu Chao had a very good relationship with his second uncle, and he truly loved his father and son.

But this man whom he respected and loved as his father plotted to kill him twice...

How did he feel when he knew the truth?

Even though he didn't mention anything in the letter, he has always been open-minded and transparent. He is not a person who likes to dig into horns, but...

Looking at the lines of pleasing handwriting, it seems that through the handwriting, one can see the calm and calm figure of the young man sitting upright and writing a letter——

But she still wanted to hug him.

When we meet, we must give him a good hug.

What was even more unexpected to her was that this Wu Jingling was actually the son of Emperor Baoqing of the previous dynasty and the master behind the Purple Star Sect who had repeatedly caused trouble in the capital.

In this investigation, it was not only the Wu family's mole that was found.

Wu Jingling...

That Wu clan member who is quite prestigious in the clan...

So, who was the one who betrayed the Wu family in the last life?

If you push it carefully, she still thinks that the latter is more likely.

What Wu Jingling wanted to do was to restore the previous dynasty, and after the last imperial court took over the military power of her Xu family, King Yan seemed to be at a disadvantage for a time, Wu Jingling wanted the world to be in chaos, but before his goal was achieved, he still To use the Wu family to accomplish things, there is no reason to push the Wu family into the abyss of destruction early.

But this is just her guess. People's hearts and situations are subject to change every day. Those who were present at the time would not know what kind of choice was made behind the decision of the last King Dingnan to burn down the Dingnan Palace.

The important thing is that the hidden danger hidden in Wu's house has been removed, and that tragedy does not have to repeat itself.

Thinking of this, Xu Mingyi felt a little more relaxed just now.

Looking further down, it's more trivial things.

Between the lines, it also made the corners of her mouth curl up.

When he finished reading the letter, he asked Ah Kui to lay out the paper and write back with a pen.

As soon as he put down his pen, he saw Tianmu come back from the outside unsteadily, thinking about seeing it, he stretched out his hand and stroked the big bird's body, and plucked down two hairs.

Still stuffed in the envelope.

Ah Kui looked secretly a little uneasy.

It's almost winter, and the third eye doesn't have a few hairs...

If Wu Shisun's letter came more frequently, wouldn't Tianmu have to spend the winter naked?

Or the son has the foresight!

I made a blanket for the Tianmu before, probably because I have practiced it. Recently, the young master followed the girl to do errands in various places during the day, and at night he still didn’t forget to light the lamp and boil oil to think about weaving a waistcoat for the Tianmu...

When she was ordered by the girl yesterday to deliver military books to the young master, she was lucky enough to see the young master sitting behind the desk earnestly weaving.

How about the feeling?

Still, quite like a loving mother...

It makes people feel that if they can have such a mother, it is really a very reassuring thing.

Say a loving mother and a loving mother will arrive——

Xu Mingshi came to report the letter, and he walked in a hurry, saying that something happened in the barracks.

After hearing this, Xu Mingyi didn't delay for a moment, and tore off the cloak hanging on the red sandalwood screen, Dang Shi ordered people to prepare the horses, and took Xu Mingshi out of the city to the direction of the barracks.

"Is grandfather in the tent?"

She dismounted in front of the coach's tent and asked.

"Miss." Several soldiers hurriedly saluted, and said: "The general is not in the tent, he should be in the training ground at this time."

Xu Mingyi immediately said: "Take me there."

"Yes." The soldier replied, leading the way.

Xu Mingshi's horse slowed down a bit, arrived one step later, and hurried to catch up.

On the way to the training ground, Xu Mingyi had already asked about the cause and effect of the incident.

Three hundred miles away on the bank of the Qingyun River, there is a cottage called Qingyunzhai. The people in the cottage are from bandits. They have taken root since the previous dynasty, and have grown stronger due to the gathering of people from all walks of life in troubled times——

Today, after the founding of the Daqing Dynasty, these people are quite self-sufficient, quite self-sufficient and self-sufficient.

But Qingyun Village has Qingyun River as a barrier, and the suspension bridge can be cut down at any time, and it is said that there are many experts from all walks of life in it.

But just about ten days ago, all the people in Qingyun Village suddenly came out and crossed the Qingyun River, threatening to take her grandfather's life and avenge the current village owner for killing his father back then!

It is said that this enmity was forged by her grandfather during the war. Now that her grandfather has rebelled and lost the court's "protection", she is looking for revenge...

It's really a model that it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

Moreover, these people came all the way, and they did not forget to utter nonsense along the way, threatening to retrieve the head of her grandfather Xiangshang and bring it back to Qingyun Village as a sacrifice to the dead soul of the old village owner.

Oh, I also said it, and said that her grandfather's granddaughter, that is, she, would be snatched back together, and she would be the young wife of the young village master.

When Ming Shi angrily told her about this a few days ago, she couldn't help being slightly surprised—has the fact that she looks beautiful has spread to Qingyunzhai and other places?

This was something she had never thought of.

It was human nature for her to react like this, but Ming Shi was so angry that the top of her head was smoking.

But at the moment, this group of people from Qingyunzhai had already arrived outside Linyuan city.

It is said that there were nearly 8,000 people in the village originally. Along the way, refugees were recruited along the way to strengthen the team. Now the number is nearly 10,000.

The village owner surnamed Nie led his ten thousand village people here.

However, he didn't call directly, but sent a letter of war first.

I have to say that this gauntlet is very quack-like, saying that since she wanted to avenge the murder of her father, she would fight her grandfather one-on-one, and each should rely on his own ability, regardless of life or death.

Probably to express his determination to win, there is another sentence, if he loses, he is willing to bring the people in the village to submit to Xu's army——

After reading the gauntlet, Lord Zhen sneered, saying that the opponent's little trick had indeed successfully attracted him, so he waved his hand and agreed.

At present, the two sides have met on the training ground.

Xu Mingyi was a little worried.

If it was changed to the past, who dared to say that she would fight her grandfather one-on-one, she would only think that it must have been deliberately sent to the door for a fight.

But after being poisoned in Dongyuan City, grandfather's body has deteriorated greatly. He has just recovered from recuperation, but he is in a hurry to fight with others. Can she not worry?

Furthermore, there are many masters in this Qingyun village, and the owner of this village is to avenge the murder of his father - who knows if it will be the kind in the scriptures, who have practiced hard for decades since childhood, just for this day ?

After hurriedly rushing to the martial arts training field and seeing the true face of the Qingyun village master, Xu Mingyi's worries increased instead of diminishing.

A man of thirty or forty years old in his prime was wearing a tiger leather jacket, he was tall and strong, he carried a crescent knife in his hand, his face was full of beards and his complexion was red and black. She would believe that he was the reincarnation of Second Lord Guan!

The entire training ground has been surrounded densely.

Behind the grandfather were the members of the Xu family's army, and behind the Guan Er... the Nie village master surrounded a group of people from the village. They all looked like gangsters, fierce and fierce, and they could scare a whole bunch of children into tears by just picking one out.

At this time, both of them had raised their swords and mounted their horses.

Seeing the brothers and sisters of the Xu family coming, everyone in the Xu family's army saluted and made way for them.

Big Bird unsteadily followed behind the siblings, stretching his neck as if to watch the excitement.

"Girl, son." Qin Wu, who was surrounded by the front, raised his hand in salute.

"How can you ask grandfather to agree to such an adventure?" Looking at the situation in the field, Xu Mingyi frowned.

"Don't worry, girl, the general has his own measure." Qin Wu pressed his big hand on the scabbard at the side of his waist as he spoke—even if the general has no measure, isn't there him?

If you can win, you will be singled out.

If you can't win—they say heads-up? Don't even look at whose territory it is!

Seeing Qin Wu's movement of touching the knife, Xu Ming understood clearly.

Understood.

Then she suddenly had a sense of "property".

She took out two steel needles from the girdle.

She can guarantee not to hurt the other party's life, but the other party can't even think about hurting her grandfather at all.

Seeing the actions of Qin Wu and his own sister, Xu Mingshi was relieved, but suddenly a little confused in the depths of his soul - who is the bandit? Who is the den of bandits?

"Swords have no eyes, General Xu has to be careful at his age!" Village Master Nie had a hoarse voice, and he knew the tactics of provoking opponents with words before making a move. .

Lord Zhen Guo on the horse leaned back to avoid the blow, and shouted "drive", and the war horse that had been with him for several years rushed towards the opponent like lightning.

The long knife in Lord Zhen Guo's hand brought up a gust of wind, kicking up loess and dust.

"Plop!"

With a loud noise, Village Master Nie fell heavily from his horse to the ground.

"Oh my mother! It hurts me to death!"

Hearing the wailing, Lord Zhen's eyes widened.

He deliberately kept the speed of the knife, and it was obvious that he hadn't even touched the opponent, so how could he fall down!

Shouldn't you be blackmailing him!

The old man retracted the knife with one hand and reined in the horse with the other.

"Don't fight, don't fight!" Village Master Nie clasped his head in both hands, and said repeatedly: "I, Nie, admit defeat!"

Afterwards, without waiting for Duke Zhen to react, the man had already knelt very upright: "Today Nie is convinced that he lost, and he is willing to gamble and admit defeat. From now on, he is willing to swear allegiance to General Xu!"

"...?!" Duke Zhen frowned tightly - he fell down with his own ability, how could he still be convinced by his mother's fall!

It is true that I would like to gamble and admit defeat, but it is on the gambling table!

You haven't sat down at the gambling table yet, how can you say that you lose if you lose? !

Everyone in Xu Jiajun was also surprised and confused.

The head of Qingyun Village?

That's it?

After Xu Mingyi was startled, he couldn't help laughing.

Co-authoring is such a thing...

The head of the family took the lead and knelt down, and the rest of the hundreds of onlookers in the village also knelt down happily, shouting "Follow General Xu to the death".

"..." The old man sat on the horse, his head was stunned by the shouting.
