At the beginning, there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave, and the woman is busy in the imp

The old man looked through the apricot tree, towards the young man, and said:

"I never thought that the Liang army would act so quickly, even earlier than I expected..."

Xie Yuheng held the tea bowl in her hand without saying anything, saying that this trip was just her personal wish.

It was just a casual question out of curiosity.

"This valley is not remote, so why is it like a paradise, safe and sound?"

The old man smiled slightly and said, "Just now, the Marquis was led in by that child."

"If there is no one to lead the way, the outer edge of the valley is actually a vast expanse of mud. If you make a mistake, you will be doomed."

"It's difficult for a large army to come in, but as for a small group of people, if they break in by land, we can handle it."

"As for the mountains, there are poisonous scorpions and poisonous insects everywhere. Even if you are wearing full armor, poisonous mosquitoes can still get in through the gaps."

"It's not worth it to pay such a huge price for ants like us who are just trying to survive..."

Xie Yuheng nodded, looked into the distance, and praised: "This place is a wonderful place to escape from the world."

"Alas..." The old man sighed heavily, "It's all thanks to Lord Ye that he found this place, otherwise, we would have been destroyed long ago."

"Back then, the Liang army helped Wusun destroy Dayuezhi without any warning. Even Lord Ye did not receive any news in advance."

The old man's voice was a little ethereal as he narrated slowly, "By the time we learned about this, the Wusun army was already approaching the city."

"Lord Ye tried his best to persuade the noble families in the city to surrender to the Western Tribes, perhaps to have a chance of survival."

"But his status as an adult is awkward, and no one wants to pay attention to him."

At this point, he sighed again, "Your Excellency had no choice but to take ordinary people like me and flee south."

"Unfortunately, the road to the tribes in the Western Regions was also blocked by the Ukrainian army. In the end, we had no choice but to curl up here and survive."

The old man put it simply, but given the situation at the time, if Ye Wei did so, it would be treason!

Ye Wei saved the enemy of Liang Wu, which was a slap in the face of Chu Tianchen. If he returned to his country, he would surely die!

Xie Yuheng looked at the yellow apricots on the branches for a long time, then asked softly, "When was the date of your death, sir?"

"If we calculate according to the Daliang era..."

The old man frowned slightly, squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "It was the twelfth day of the second month in the spring of the fourth year of Yongping."

"At that time, the doctors in the village said that the master might not survive New Year's Eve."

"But who would have thought that he would not only survive New Year's Eve, but also hold on for two more months, and only leave after seeing the apricot blossoms bloom."

Ye Cen walked behind the old man at some point, her eyes red.

When he heard "Don't leave until the apricot flowers bloom", he staggered and nearly fell down.

She choked up and said, "In the fourth year of Yongping, Your Majesty had already ascended the throne. Why didn't he return?"

"Even if you don't come back, is it difficult to send someone a letter?"

Doesn't he know that someone is waiting for him to come home...

Xie Yuheng took a sip of the rough tea and said, "As for Lord Ye, it would be better for Minister Ye if he didn't return home."

"Otherwise, the father and son, as new and old ministers, are on opposite sides, and may become a handle for others to attack Minister Ye."

Ye Cen understood the truth, but looking at the apricot forest, he thought that Ye Wei must be missing his family all the time.

She gritted her teeth, and roared with hatred: "Damn Chu Tianchen, why doesn't he go to the eighteenth level of hell!"

The old man cleared his throat and made a soothing gesture, "Little girl, calm down first."
