As soon as Xichun entered the water pavilion, Jia Rong stood up to salute and say hello, Xichun nodded, and let all the maids go down.

Xichun looked at Jia Rong little by little, and finally sighed, "You have refused to send news these past few years. We only know that you are well. Looking at it now, how can you be well?"

Jia Rong said: "Thanks to the blessings of those elders in the same robes, my nephew was lucky enough to survive, and he was never missing an arm or a leg. Although life was a bit hard later, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing. I have seen it all. Life is full of vicissitudes, and I understand many things, so how can it not be safe?"

Seeing Jia Rong's demeanor and behavior, Xichun knew that he had really seen through it, and let it go.

If it weren't for Xu's incident, Xichun would be very happy.

Xichun asked again: "Can't your hands and legs recover anymore? Are you still hurting now?"

Jia Rong glanced at her injured leg and hand, and shook her head, "I still feel a little uncomfortable in rainy and cold weather. The seventh lady and the imperial doctor have seen it, and they all say that I am young, and I can take care of it for a few years, but if I want to lift weights Things, running and jumping... don't think about these anymore."

Jia Rong laughed again, "However, I won't go to the battlefield to kill the enemy again. To be an official, I just need to be able to afford a pen and a book."

Xichun asked: "Are you planning to become an official? Where do you start? Do you have a detailed plan?"

"Grandfather said that I have been wasted in the past few years, and asked me to pick up my previous studies and connections, and then release them outside." Jia Rong said: "Grandfather means to let me go directly to remote places, and directly become a county. Ling, I don't want to go, I want to put it outside the capital, and I don't necessarily need a county magistrate, I can be a minor official."

A bit of sadness appeared on Jia Rong's face, "In the past, I only cared about myself, but I forgot about my family. Now I have no face to say that nothing happened. I can only work harder to let my grandfather relax."

Xichun was silent for a moment, "In the future, I will go to Lingnan with the county king. If there is anything at home, I will be powerless. My sister-in-law is sad and doesn't want to stay at home, and I don't want to force it. My father is old and his energy is limited. However, there are constant turmoil at home, I am very happy that you are willing to come back, but I don't want some things to happen again."

Jia Rong got up and knelt down, "My nephew knows that I hurt the hearts of the elders by being foolish in the past, but now my nephew really understands what I will do and what I will face, and I will never run away again."

Xichun leaned on the table with one hand, looked at Jia Rong lazily, and didn't cry out, "It's best if you understand, some things can be changed, but you can't repeat it, everyone has a bottom line."

There was a trace of coldness in Xichun's eyes, "seriously speaking, although you are my nephew, I am many years younger than you. I am married, and I am not like the old man who didn't leave the door. If something happens, we can support each other." If Jia Rong gets confused again, she will have plenty of time to deal with him.

Jia Rong understood that Xichun was beating him, and immediately leaned over, "Yes, my nephew understands."

Xichun looked at the sky and said directly: "By the way, didn't you say you brought someone back to show me last time? Why didn't I see her today?"

Jia Rong respectfully said: "Xu's family came from a poor family, and he doesn't understand many rules. He is learning recently. He was afraid of offending his aunt, so he didn't call me."

Xichun let out a cry, and asked Jia Rong to come forward, "How did I hear that Mrs. Xu was dressed as a woman?"

Jia Rong's face turned pale in an instant, Xichun leaned forward, slapped Jia Rong's face, and finally stopped by the cheek.

Jia Rong didn't move and didn't blink.

Xichun withdrew her hand resentfully, "What? You've read all the books in the dog's stomach? You've got nothing to do with me, you've really grown up!"

Jia Rong's eyes were flushed, "Auntie misunderstood me, how could my nephew be that kind of person? Please calm down for a while and listen to my nephew's explanation."

Jia Rong kowtowed and told all of Xu's past, exactly what You said.

In such an era, the Xu family dared to overthrow the heavy shackles that bound him, faced accusations of thousands of people, survived difficultly and never gave up on himself, even now Xichun admires him in his heart.

But let Xu be Jia Rong's first wife, Xichun couldn't agree.

Jia Rong kowtowed again, "I know that my continued marriage to Mrs. Xu will bring many things to the family, but..."

Jia Rong raised her head to look at Xichun, with tears in her eyes and pleading on her face, Xichun made a wrong eye, and seemed to see Jia Rong when Qin Keqing died.

Jia Rong choked with sobs and said, "The death of the Qin family not only made it difficult for my nephew to face herself, but also made it difficult for my elders to face me, so I went to the battlefield regardless of my aunt's dissuasion."

At that time, Jia Rong just wanted to escape, but felt that there was no place for him in the world, and even thought of dying on the battlefield.

To sacrifice one's life for one's country is not a disgrace to one's family tradition.

But when he saw the broken limbs and arms on the battlefield for the first time, he couldn't help throwing up, and he began to feel sad and regretful in his heart.

On the battlefield at that time, there was no etiquette, justice, shame, or even humanity, only killing.

Open your eyes to kill, close your eyes to kill, the body in front of your eyes is full of blood, your own, your comrades', the enemy's, and all you hear are wailing.

Every wail is full of longing and unwillingness.

It is the unwillingness to be on the verge of death, and it is the desire to be able to live.

Jia Rong went to the battlefield incognito, but the family was worried, so they arranged someone to protect him.

Jia Rong also knew, otherwise he would have died before reaching Lingnan with his appearance at that time.

When the first person who protected him died in front of his eyes, Jia Rong was only sad and grateful, grateful that he saved her, and sad that he died like this.

When the second, third, and fourth protectors died in front of his eyes, he began to resent, resent why they saved him, it is clear that there is no problem for them to protect themselves!

But when the last person who protected him died before his eyes, he had no thoughts in his mind.

Jia Rong frantically called for help, and tightly covered the wound on the man's stomach with her hands, telling him to hold on.

The man looked at him and smiled, he didn't look like he was going to die at all, and he was still in the mood to tease him, "Master Rong's hands are stained with the blood of a vulgar man like me, don't write articles like those sour scholars who are full of contempt for warriors , or write two good words."

Along the way, those guards always made fun of him for his status as a scholar, saying that he was not a good official, but came to do this job with his head hanging on his belt, and they always talked about things on the battlefield to scare him.

Jia Rong knew that they had good intentions and wanted him to go back.

Jia Rong told him to shut up, and the man obediently shut up too, and then he got up with some strength, picked up the big knife in the hand of a corpse beside him, and hacked at it.

The enemy soldier who was preparing to attack Jia Rong died.

The man fell down again, the wound on his stomach was even bigger, and his intestines fell out, but he still looked at Jia Rong and smiled, "I said it all, don't be distracted on the battlefield." At the end he sighed, "Master Rong still It's good to go back to study and become an official, but the battlefield...is not suitable for you."

Jia Rong ignored him, put the intestines back on him with trembling hands, and took off the bandages on the wound on his body and wrapped it up with the man - there was still a little medicine powder on it, then took the big knife from the man and started to fight the enemy The soldiers cut it off.

After that knife went down, there was no more hesitation or hesitation.

After the battle was over, Jia Rong immediately ran into the camp with him on her back, the faint sound of breathing on her back made Jia Rong ecstatic.

When he arrived at the barracks, the man also regained his energy, and said with a soft smile: "Uncle Rong's sword skills are really good today, and there is hope for killing the enemy in the future, ah, this is really going to be a general, in the future When you quarrel with people in the court, if you can't quarrel with your mouth, you will never lose with your hands."

Jia Rong told him to shut up, and the man stopped talking.

Jia Rong found the doctor in the barracks behind his back. The doctor put the man on the ground, turned around and left after only one glance.

People are dead.

Jia Rong didn't believe it, how could he be dead?Just talking to him.

Jia Rong grabbed the doctor and refused to let him go, saying that he had made a mistake and asked him to take another look. He was not dead.

The doctor didn't argue, and beat Jia Rong unconscious with a knife.

Jia Rong woke up again, and the man had been buried with the corpses of other soldiers.

From that day on, Jia Rong seldom spoke, and started to practice martial arts every day as soon as he opened his eyes. Others told him to save some energy.

Martial arts can't be practiced in a short while, and now there is nothing to eat, so I can kill two more enemy soldiers with a little effort.

Jia Rong stopped practicing martial arts and sat in a corner in the shadows wiping knives all day long.

When the horn of war sounded again, Jia Rong rushed forward.

He didn't charge in front, nor did he guard behind, he just killed the enemy on the edge.

Jia Rong knew his abilities, he would not do stupid things that cost his life, these enemy soldiers on the edge were enough for him to kill.

Jia Rong started counting while killing, how many enemy soldiers can kill a guard?How many enemy soldiers can kill a comrade?

In the last battle, Jia Rong injured his hands and feet. The officer in the barracks asked him if he wanted to retire, but Jia Rong refused.

He hasn't killed enough, and there are still a few less.

But Jia Rong couldn't stay in the barracks like this, not to mention that she couldn't recover from her injuries, and she couldn't do anything about practicing in the future.

The officer had no choice but to arrange a job for him as an undercover agent. Enemies could never be killed, not to mention water bandits and pirates from time to time.

Jia Rong agreed, and started to go to sea after her injury recovered.

He remembered that the bodies of many of his comrades had fallen into the sea and hadn't been picked up yet.

It was an accident to meet Mrs. Xu. That day he secretly checked the pirate's base camp, and when he was about to leave, he heard a noise. At first he thought that he had been discovered, but later he found out that it was not, it was a woman who was kidnapped by the pirates and ran away. up.

Jia Rong saw Xu's jump off the cliff. Jia Rong, who was still hesitating whether to save others, saw Xu's expression at the moment he fell into the water.

It was a very delicate expression, with both the despair of resolutely going to death and the humble desire to survive.

At that moment, Jia Rong seemed to see Qin Keqing, and also the guards who died for him.

Jia Rong saved her life without hesitation. He pressed down on Xu's chest and abdomen, begging her to live.

Survive, that's what you want, and what I want.

Jia Rong wiped away her tears and continued: "Later she came to thank me, and we gradually got in touch with each other. Slowly, she began to be interested in me. One day, she asked me if I would like to live with me."

Mrs. Xu is a very contradictory person in Jia Rong's heart, especially after Jia Rong learned about Mrs. Xu.

Since Jia Rong saved her, Jia Rong has become her only sustenance, but she doesn't regard him as everything.

She longed to live, to live with Jia Rong.

This alone is enough for Jia Rong not to let her go.
