There are many treasures in this country

Ruan Tong has a close relationship with Mei Qi on a daily basis, other than that, there are only people in the general's mansion who are close to him.Xiao Suo didn't have any contact with him, but when he went to look for Shen Yan, he met him occasionally.Only when Shen Yan was imprisoned last year, the two investigated the case together and spent two days together.

Back then when he was in the Ministry of Execution, Xiao Suo was thinking that Shen Yan would come to rescue him, but he heard about this so-called new love from Mei Qi.Since then, he has never dared to ask the cause and effect in detail, preferring to pretend to be confused than to prove that this new love is real.

Shen Yan later explained to him that Xiao Suo would believe whatever he said, and did not ask further.Therefore, he did not know the origin of Ruan Tong's identity.

"In the old year, I went to the southeast to suppress pirates. The people there were killed by bandits, and their livelihood was quite difficult. All the way to Jianzhang, Fuquan, and the four prefectures, the road was full of refugees, concubines and young children, and it was extremely miserable. Ruan Tong was one of them. One, at that time he was desperate and sold himself in the city to beg for rice. I ordered Eleven to give him a few taels of silver and saved his life."

Shen Yan thought back on the past, the jacaranda flowers under the blue bricks and black tiles, and the description of Ruan Tong's downfall that day were still in front of his eyes.Now that the Sri Lankan has passed away, the fragrance has disappeared and the jade has died, and he can't go back.

"He was favored by me, and found out that I was going to suppress the bandits, so he went to the army to find me, and said he knew the pirates' tracks and details. According to him, he was the son of a wealthy family. Nanjiang had to meet some beauties, loved her like a treasure, married her back home, and gave birth to his father. Later, his family was ruined, and he was sold into a government-run brothel. Later, pirates joined forces with coastal people to become thieves. After capturing the brothel, he took the opportunity to escape, penniless and almost starved to death, so he wanted to sell himself."

Xiao Suo said with emotion: "Fate has a long way to go, his life experience is quite similar to that of Mei Qi, the same suffering, no wonder these two people cherish each other and have a strong relationship."

"Don't be too busy expressing your feelings." Shen Yan said, "I sent someone to investigate later, and his origin is indeed as he said. But according to the people in the prostitute who took him in, not all members of his family died. There are people scattered around. I came back and ordered Shen San'er to investigate carefully and find a former relative of his family.

"Although this person has never met him, he knows the rules of his family. They are a family of businessmen, and they look down on people who study martial arts. They only focus on doing business on weekdays. The little boy in the family has been in the shop since he was a child." Learning. Those who are a little older also follow their families to do business.

"The Ruan family used to be well-known in the local area. Their downfall was not due to poor management, but because they offended the officials. Therefore, he should have been brought up in this way when he was young, and he probably knew a few words. , but it is absolutely impossible to have any great knowledge. But in your opinion, how is his literary talent?"

Xiao Suo's eyes lit up, he nodded and said: "I was puzzled by this, but he died suddenly, so I forgot. Now that you mentioned it, I suddenly remembered. He is really not like an ordinary prostitute, even if he is According to my opinion, there are not as many cleaners in big families as he does.

"No matter other things, in terms of knowledge, he is far beyond ordinary people, even me. I went to see you on the battlefield with him today, and he knows everything about marching and fighting. It's rare for someone who hasn't experienced it personally. Known.

"Besides, he usually quotes extensively from other sources, he can easily write poems and dictionaries, and he is also familiar with historical allusions. He even knows a little bit about the art of war and warfare, and he can write well. This is really not someone who grew up in a third-class prostitute. People who grow up can do it."

"That's right." Shen Yan said, "I ordered someone to investigate him at the time: one was to act cautiously, just in case; the other was to feel that something was wrong - I was far away from him at that time, and he could actually see I, and I listened carefully to the conversation between Eleven and me, so that we knew our identities, so we are not mortals. And you left out a little bit, he not only knows those things, but also has a lot of medical skills, and he likes to mix fragrances and medicines.

"I asked the incense maker in Dianzhong Province, the things he concocted are incomparable to those made by ordinary experts. Ji Ziyang also said that his medical skills are not shallow. Those bottles and jars around me, It's all made by him, and the effect is quite effective. Even the soft cream for you, isn't it also made by him?"

Xiao Suo's face turned red, and he looked around and asked suspiciously: "Then...what do you think he came from, and why did he hide it?"

"I'm just guessing, and I haven't confirmed it yet." Shen Yan got out of bed and walked to the cage that hadn't been packed in the future, rummaged for a while, and brought a kit. "Remember this?"

Xiao Suo pulled off the red string that sealed the seal, and a strange fragrance came out of his nostrils, and in his palm were several dried flowers that resembled cloves. "This is... That time in Shepu, the horse I was riding smelled that the sachet Mei Qi gave to Ruan Tong had sex. Is this the spice in the sachet?"

"That's it. I lost those in the past. This bag was brought out by Yan Jun from the palace for me before he left." Shen Yan took the sachet and threw it aside, saying: "This thing is a tribute. No. Mei Qi went to look for you that day just to remind him not to get close to horses with this thing. But with Ruan Tong's knowledge of spices, how could he not know that it can make horses go crazy?"

"You mean..." Xiao Suo understood five points in his heart, "Could it be that he deliberately wanted to harm me? Then you punished him to kneel for a day, was it because of this? I remember you said that you have your own reasons , told me not to control it."

Shen Yan put his arms around him and said: "Then you didn't listen, and you threatened not to eat, so I can only let it go."

"I don't threaten not to eat, but I just watched him kneeling there, as if he was sunburned, and he really couldn't eat. I don't believe you can eat in peace while watching such a thing." Xiao Suo murmured.

"Anyway, you are always right." Shen Yan pinched his ears, and continued: "He wanted to harm you, probably just a thought, and wanted to get rid of you from my side. His thoughts have never been revealed. When he first followed me, He wanted to serve me, but after I rejected him, he didn't say anything. But I can see that he has this intention. "

Xiao Suo sighed and said: "Before he died, he said, you know his thoughts clearly, so it can be seen that he also knows that you have seen it. Based on my shallow understanding of him, he is not a vicious person, and many things are probably helpless. He is so He loves you so much that he did not hesitate to hurt me because of this, which shows the depth of his affection. "I would have set my heart on the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch." If I were him, he should also be unable to help but blame me."

"But I also have intentions." Shen Yan looked into his eyes and said, "It's not that he is affectionate, so I have to pay him back. He is emotional to me, that is his own business. I have not done anything to apologize to him I don’t owe him anything. If everyone in the world likes me, why should I still like people in the world? There’s no reason for that. I’m destined to miss him, otherwise God shouldn’t let me meet you. If I only met him in this life , I haven't met you, maybe I'll take him in as a bastard like before, but I will never talk to him."

"Then what if we met him first?" Xiao Suo couldn't help being curious.

"It's different, I'm not just anyone." Shen Yan said seriously, "It's not about eating, you can eat rice, you can also eat noodles, if you eat the rice first, you won't be able to eat any more, and if you eat the noodles first, you won't be able to eat any more rice. There is no difference between the two, you can eat whatever you eat, it just depends on which one you eat first. Now that you have recognized it, it must be this person. If you go to Qin Muchu, is it still considered recognized? Even if you meet someone else first, there will be no one in the end. A good death."

He finished this passage like an old pedant reasoning, and between the lines, he clearly confessed his intentions, which is really hard to resist.

Xiao Suo was very moved, buried his head on his chest and said: "Ruan Tong is not as lucky as me, I... thank you."

"Between us, don't talk about this." Shen Yan stroked the back of his head and sighed: "The reason is the reason, and I always feel that I owe him."

"I owe him." Xiao Suo's eyelashes were moist, he raised his head and said, "If he hadn't pushed me away today, I would be the one who died at this moment."

Shen Yan shook his head and said: "He has no friendship with you, he saved you to fulfill me, so I really owe him. Although he deliberately wanted to kill you to encourage you to come, he blocked the arrow for you. Sending him back to the south after the battle is considered to be his last wish, and tomorrow I will ask Shi Yi to melt him down."

"No!" Xiao Suo was shocked when he heard the words, and said in amazement: "Even if the front line is dangerous and the coffin is not easy to transport, you still have to leave him a whole body. How can you turn him into... Anyway, no! Although it is troublesome to help the spirit return home, But it's not a big deal. Those who are officials in Beijing have to be sent back to their homeland when their families are old. Even if it's not easy, we have to do it for him. How can we let him die without a whole body? Okay? ,OK?"

Shen Yan was dizzy from being shaken by him, and said while holding him down: "It's not that I want to crush him to ashes, listen to me, I'm trying to fulfill him. He's from Nan'an, this is their custom, that's all."

"Nan, Nan'an?" Xiao Suo was stunned and puzzled, "Ruan Tong is from Nan'an?"

"It wasn't you who interrupted me, but when I talked about punishing kneeling just now, I took the words away." Shen Yan rubbed his stunned face, "I punished him to kneel at that time, and it wasn't just because he was so confused that he almost hurt you. Because of this. Didn’t I say that his identity is suspicious. According to my guess, he is probably the secret agent of Nan’an Guo who planted by my side.”

"Careful work?" Xiao Suo was deeply suspicious, "How is it possible, he doesn't even know martial arts!"

Shen Yan said with a sneer: "Who said that you must be good at martial arts? He doesn't have kung fu, but he is better than ordinary ones. My hobby is well known to the world. It is estimated that Nan'an Guo took a fancy to this and arranged him by my side. , in order to steal military information. When he first came to me, he wanted to get close to me, even at the price of lust. Eleven also said that he would often hang around my study. Later, I deliberately let him learn to write articles. Go to the study to teach me, he reads my memorial documents more frequently."

"Then you already knew?" Xiao Suo asked with staring eyes, "Why didn't you ask him?"

"How can it be said that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light? If I know it, I will also be in the dark. It is just to find out their intentions. Maybe they can use him when the time comes. I don't know." Shen Yan said, "The horse hair-inducing spice is a tribute from Nan'an Kingdom. I punished him to kneel at the beginning to warn him. But later, maybe he was thinking about me. He really didn't do anything, only one thing--"

"I know!" Xiao Suo Lingtai flashed a gleam of clarity, turned up suddenly and said, "Princess Nan'an's fake death, he is the one who passed the news to the princess. That's right, except for him, no one can touch it." The princess will no longer arouse suspicion."

"That's right." Shen Yan twitched the corners of his mouth, "He came to visit me in prison and said he was sorry, so I was even more sure. I guess he also knew that I had doubts, so he knelt down and stopped. Apart from sending a few words about the princess, I didn't do anything. I was afraid that the military situation would leak out during the war a few days ago, so I specially asked him to watch the war pigeons for me. It was also a warning. He really didn't take the opportunity to send a message to Nan'an , helped me to avoid worries, and even thought about it before I died... It's a pity."

"No wonder he said that he lived a small half of his life, which is more difficult than others." Xiao Suo couldn't imagine how much Ruan Tong was suffering in his heart, "He is only nineteen, and he doesn't even have a friend who is honest and honest. I don't like things often eight or nine, It can be said to be the same as others."

Shen Yan was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "Before he died, he said in my ear that he left me a letter, which was placed in his luggage in the camp. I have asked Shi Yi to pick it up."

Hearing this, Xiao Suo raised the curtain and said, "Go and see now, I'll be waiting for you."

"I don't know if I didn't come back eleven times." Shen Yan touched him and made up his mind, and walked out with his clothes on.

The outer hall was empty, with two rows of candles flickering under the windows, the light was not enough and it was dark.There is an ebony box on the table in front of the hall, the lid is carved with a crane pattern, which is Ruan Tongsu's daily color.

Shen Yan walked closer, opened the drawer, and saw that there was indeed a letter inside.

Mostly because of his unscrupulous parting words, perhaps because he was afraid that he would not understand the words, Ruan Tong wrote very straightforwardly.

"General Taijian, at this moment, Ruan Tong may have gone to the underworld, heaven and earth, that will be a farewell forever. Life is bitter, and once you go, you will finally be free and worry-free.

Yu Yuan is a descendant of a Nan'an family. Since he was a child, he has often seen his relatives serve the country with his own body, and he is eager to admire him. He is willing to be an example for my generation. outside.

However, God's will is unpredictable, Yu Yi is contemptuous, and he doesn't know that there are still generals in the world who are like curling autumn moon.However, Yu has been destined, and there is no way to talk about his feelings and intentions.Although it is an unspoken love, it has become a lifelong grudge.

When Yu Zi met the general, he was always impressed by the general's enthusiasm and straightforwardness.I became more and more obsessed, still unconscious, in a trance, and gradually fell into evil, almost made a big mistake, and deeply regretted it.

Kuang Yu knew that he had concealed a lot from the general during his lifetime, so he was ashamed of not being able to treat each other honestly;

It's hard to repay it now, but I hope that in the next life, it may be able to make up for it a little bit.I am writing this letter today to express my heart and comfort the souls of the dead, but in response to the ancient saying, even if tears are capable, there will be traces, and words are too difficult to send, but there are no words.

If we meet each other at that time, General Wang still remembers the person who looked back at him under the jacaranda flowers and blue waves in the Jianzhou mansion. "
