fluttering night wind

Shen Yizhou only felt that this person was either extremely arrogant or extremely ignorant, so he sneered: "Dear man, thank you for taking care of Ziying, presumably Ziying never told you about his family background, the Meng family is not It is an ordinary family who can get close to relatives."

Bai Yansheng was helping Meng Ziying to put his dislocated wrist back in place, but he felt a slight tremor all over his body. Knowing that he was uneasy, he patted him on the back, gave him a comforting look, and said to Shen Yizhou: "My son and I When Ying is married, what matters most is his character, and his family background is all floating clouds. Please don't force Ziying to do things that Ziying is unwilling to do."

Meng Ziying's eyes turned red when he heard that, except for his mother and master, no one had ever defended him like this.

Shen Yizhou thought to himself that this man had eaten something so hard to reason, so he turned to Meng Ziying and said, "Ah Jiu, there are too many people today, so it is inconvenient to say something clearly, think about it carefully, and I will come again when it is cheaper." Looking for you."

Without even thinking about it, Meng Ziying said decisively: "You go, I have nothing to do with the Meng family."

Shen Yizhou raised his throat angrily, and was about to lose his temper when he suddenly heard Bai Yan's voice: "Wait a minute." I saw him bent down and folded a wild chrysanthemum growing from the gap between the bluestone slabs in the courtyard, the yellow petals were just about to bloom, The branches are so delicate that it seems that water can be squeezed out. "Although we are people picked up from the garbage dump, this is not a vegetable market. You may come and leave whenever you want."

Shen Yizhou was taken aback, and said, "How are you doing?"

Bai Yansheng pointed at the flower branch in his hand, and the wild chrysanthemum flower in bud suddenly bloomed slowly at the place where the true energy was stirring. For a moment, there were many shadows of chrysanthemums, and the faint fragrance scattered in all directions. Sneering at this person's self-indulgence, he took advantage of the situation and made a smile, but who knew that he couldn't touch the tender petals.

Shen Yizhou was startled, Zhan Zhan dodged Bai Yansheng's palm on his forehead, and used 72 sets of "Six Flying Flowers" in his right hand. Pai, Bai Yansheng uses flowers as weapons, thick and thin, with equal softness and strength.Shen Yizhou avoided his sharp edge and hit his arm instead, Bai Yansheng was not afraid at all, when he hit, Shen Yizhou was secretly delighted, when suddenly he felt the opponent's internal force rushing towards him like a tidal wave, shaking his limbs and bones so painful that he staggered back, The left hand was flicked by the chrysanthemum branch, and with a "creak", the silver whip he was holding fell down, and was put into Bai Yansheng's arms.

After one blow, the petals fell to the ground and fell into mud.Bai Yansheng jumped back to Meng Ziying's side and returned the stolen silver whip to him. Ziying's heart was surging and she couldn't restrain herself. Yansheng smiled and said nothing. Both of them turned their heads and looked at Shen Yizhou. Supporting his left wrist, it was a tit for tat, Bai Yansheng also dislocated his left hand.

"The one who is here today is the widow of a martyr. After a loyal minister, how can you allow me to humiliate you lightly. Please take the message back. Meng Ye relies on natural dangers and dares to call his troops to the palace. The country is solid, and virtue is not in danger."

Shen Yizhou felt that he had suffered a great shame and humiliation, and his usual handsome face appeared a little ferocious: "Thank you for your advice, Bai Yansheng, I will note it down. This is not where I came from, but since I have seen it, this trip is not in vain. Little Ajiu, I say everything Here, you do it yourself." While speaking, he had passed the two of them and walked out of the thatched cottage by himself.

Bai Yan looked at Ziying and said in a low voice: "The governor of Yizhou, the ninth son of Meng Ye, the king of Bashu, you have such a prominent family background, why never say it?"

"I," Meng Ziying bit her lip, not knowing where to start.

"Forget it," Bai Yansheng stepped forward, and released Qu Chengfeng's and Pei Lie's acupoints. Hearing the sound of a baby crying in the room, he went into the room and released Zhao Wan's sleeping acupoints.Zhao Wan was originally breastfeeding little Pei Shao, but she was frightened by Shen Yizhou's intrusion, and when she woke up, her blood was still weak and she couldn't speak.

Pei Lie and Qu Chengfeng all followed in, and Meng Ziying came in last, and suddenly knelt down in front of the room, Qu Chengfeng and Zhao Wan felt extremely panicked.Bai Yansheng's eyes were deep and he didn't say a word.

"Today, because of me, everyone was injured and humiliated, and Ziying's death is unavoidable."

Seeing Bai Yansheng standing by the bed, Qu Chengfeng hurriedly went to help Meng Ziying. Zhao Wan was also struggling to say something, when he heard Pei Lieqing's clear and crisp voice: "The night before I left Jingzhou, there was a Someone who looks like Uncle Meng entered Uncle Tang's study."

Everyone was startled, and Qu Chengfeng's outstretched arm also dropped down. Only then did Meng Ziying understand the reason why Pei Lie didn't want to get close to her before, she lowered her head and said with a forced smile: "That must be Meng Ye's eldest son, Mencius You. I ran away from home when I was 12 years old, and he was already the leading general in the governor's office."

There was silence in the room, only the sound of little Pei Shao crying bitterly.

"Master Meng," Zhao Wan turned sideways, looked at him deeply with bloodshot eyes, and said with a hint of grief and indignation in his tone, "Why do you want to save the concubine's mother and child?"

Meng Ziying looked up at Zhao Wan and Bai Yansheng, and said sonorously, "Meng Ye rebelled against the flag and rushed into Jing and Qing. It happened after I left Shu. Ziying did not conspire with it. Meng Ye's descendants don't care about it." Counting, Ziying is a soft-spoken person. After my mother died, I decided to part ways with the Meng family. Hailing Lord Pei Xiupei, a man of outstanding character and a pillar of excellence, has always been admired by me. When I became sworn brothers with Brother Bai, I have made an oath that I will pay for Duke Pei's blood, and realize Mr. Pei's ambition to clarify the world."

Seeing his affectionate words, Zhao Wan looked at Bai Yansheng and said softly: "Master Bai, the woman wants to breastfeed her baby, please avoid it first."

Bai Yansheng knew that she had relieved her grievances for a while, and felt relieved, and hurried forward to help Meng Ziying, and said loudly: "Ziying and I are sworn brothers. From now on, brothers will be of the same heart. In the past, everything will happen, such as yesterday's death; in the future, everything will happen, such as today. born."

Qu Chengfeng was terrified watching from the sidelines, he was an outsider, but he knew that today's confession by Bai Yansheng and Meng Ziying was nothing serious.Given the situation of Zhao Wan's mother and son, they could have kept it a secret from them, but in order to raise the banner of Pei Xiu in the future, the first thing to do is to make up for the possible cracks and calm the storm before it breaks out.These two are young and beautiful. At first glance, they look like noble sons. They can bend and stretch.

He is an actor like duckweed, wandering in the south of the world, not to mention Fenghuo, for some reason, he suddenly gave birth to the idea of ​​rooting in the south of the Yangtze River.

In the 14th year of Chongming, the same astonishing incident with the Meng family, which turned out to be in Western Shu, happened in October. Youzhou City, known as the North Gate Lock Yue, was besieged for a year, and there was no support for the border town. At that time, Xu Kuang, the prefect, surrendered the city, and Youzhou was captured by Xiao Yuanzao, the great general of Xianbei conquering the South.

When Mencius Ying heard the news, she was playing a plum blossom song in the porch and three lanes. The first lane was called the moon, and the moon flew freely over the rivers and mountains. The second lane pierced the clouds, and the blue birds were eager to visit. , only the plum blossoms are endless.

On the opposite shooting range, figures swayed, and spears clashed.Bai Yansheng was teaching Yan Xing and Pei Lie to draw the bow. These two children were about the same age, and they both wore bunts.Ever since Zhao Wan finished confinement, Bai Yansheng brought them back to Linxi and lived in the government office, only saying that they were relatives.After Pei Lie passed the gate, he was fascinated by the fact that his bow was drawn in a decent manner, and although the arrow he shot didn't hit the heart, it was not far off.Yan Xing was weaker, he drew his bow crookedly, and his arrows couldn't hit the target, Bai Yansheng frowned.In the open space on the side, Yanfeng was fighting with Sun Jiren with a long sword in his hand. The weapons intersected. Sun Jiren intended to give in to each other, but the half-grown child didn't buy it. His moves were ruthless and took people's vitals. Sun Jiren couldn't bear it, and beat him angrily. The long sword that fell into his hand.

The sound startled Bai Yansheng, and he turned his head to look, only to see the back of Yanfeng striding away, and Sun Jiren standing there awkwardly for no reason.

"stop."

Yanfeng stopped, but still didn't turn around.

"Master Sun taught you how to practice the sword, where are you going?"

Yanfeng said firmly: "I lost, go face the wall."

Bai Yansheng showed displeasure on his face: "You", Sun Jiren hurriedly stepped forward and waved his hands to make a relief: "It's because I didn't teach well, forget it."

Bai Yansheng only felt that Yanfeng was very different from before when he took the two brothers back in the spring. He didn't talk much before, and now even less, his temper is sometimes weird, making people puzzled.He was about to scold him, but suddenly remembered that Yan Rong was the one who disciplined the child since he was a child, and he felt sour, and said softly, "Master Sun confronted you openly, and asked you to lay a solid foundation, why didn't you listen to him?"

"Can you defeat the enemy by being upright on the battlefield?" Yanfeng said.

Bai Yansheng was stunned.

Yanfeng strode out of the school yard, passed by the corridor, saw Mencius playing the piano cross-legged, bowed slightly, and then walked away along the corridor.

Someone from Dongping Mansion brought documents, and Bai Yansheng asked Sun Jiren to urge the two children to draw their bows, took the documents and went to the opposite corridor, and sat next to Meng Ziying to read them carefully.At that time, his hair on the temples was all wet, his clothes were soaked in sweat, facing the sun, he was concentrating on looking at the paper in his hand. Mencius could not help but see that his face was originally upright and unrestrained like the wind and the moon, but the corners of his mouth gradually tightened, and his expression became solemn. Curious: "What's the matter?"

Bai Yansheng handed the mansion to him, Meng Ziying looked at it twice, and frowned.Bai Yansheng stood up and shouted towards the school field: "Yan Xing, continue to practice, Xiao Lie, come here."

The hem of the woman's skirt was rustling, accompanied by the sound of a baby crying from far and near.Holding Pei Shao in her arms, Zhao Wan walked into the back hall of Linxi Mansion. Two young men sat and stood in the hall with a high-spirited manner. When they saw her, they immediately got up to greet her.If these two people were not both men, they could really be called a hazy couple.

Bai Yansheng told her about the affairs of Youzhou, and finally asked: "I don't know if I remember correctly, but Xu Kuang is Pei Gong's confidant and beloved general?"

Zhao Wan nodded and said: "When Duke Hailing was alive, he had the most congenial relationship with General Xu. In the early years of Chongming, he strongly recommended General Xu to guard Youzhou. It has been more than ten years."

Bai Yansheng and Mencius Ying looked at each other with a tacit understanding, Youzhou is an important place in Tianjin, and captives from the north and south are plundering, so the traveler must go this way, Xianbei has not been able to attack by force for more than ten years, which shows that this person is very capable, and he surrendered to the enemy, it is really shocking unimaginable.

Zhao Wan has a square face, and her facial features are not exquisite among southerners. At this time, she looked up at the two of them, and said indifferently: "What do you two adults want to ask, I probably know it. , presumably the news of Lord Hailing's death has also spread to Youzhou. The officials in frontiers seem to be majestic, but once the war starts, they can't protect the land and protect the people. It's either a martyrdom or a big punishment. General Xu will probably die. It's just that I don’t know if I lose my teacher and lose my land, will it harm my family?”

Bai Yansheng took a deep breath and asked: "The copy of the mansion did not say how to deal with it. Who else is in General Xu's family? Are they staying in Yongjing?"

Zhao Wan nodded, and said: "Mrs. Xu passed away a few years ago, and she has a son and two daughters, who are not yet grown up. I will go back and write to you at the address in Yongjing." Picking up the little baby, just about to get up, he suddenly heard Bai Yan's voice: "Mrs. Pei, Ziying has been in Yongjing for many years and is familiar with it. I want Ziying to pick up General Xu's descendants."

Zhao Wan glanced at Meng Ziying, noncommittal, and walked out of the back hall.Meng Ziying heard her say outside: "Come on."

When they chased out the door, Zhao Wan was standing on the porch, and Qu Chengfeng was also standing there holding Pei Lie, presumably to send her to the back hall so that he could not follow up, so he stood there and waited.Pei Lie was throwing himself into his mother's arms and acting like a baby.

Zhao Wan said: "Master Meng, as long as I don't forget it for a day, I can't forgive you. Please remember." She took Pei Lie by the hand and walked towards the backyard.

Qu Chengfeng stood still, looked at the guqin that Mencius had placed there before, and asked, "Is this Mr. Lei Zhen's Chunlei qin? You were the one who was playing the three plum blossoms just now?" Unbelievable and indescribable deep doubts appeared on the face: "The voice of Shu is impatient, like thunder waves rushing to thunder. As an orthodox heir of the Shu school, why did you abandon the overtone and long Suo fingering for the part of the three changes?"

Mencius smiled bitterly, and said: "I can't play it. After Xiangyang, playing the piano is a luxury. There are wars all over the country, and I don't have any leisure time, and I can't play that kind of fingering anymore."

Qu Chengfeng looked up at him from the corridor, the young man's sad words were like a gust of cool wind blowing, the red leaves in the cold mountain, the yellow flowers in the autumn garden, all the way through the door, he couldn't help sighing: "You have doubts in your heart, so the strings won't respond. You. Have you never trusted anyone in your life?"
