Pei Gonggui

Besides, Jiang Xuan was about to wave to Jiang Zhan, when a tall guard suddenly appeared in front of him.

Jiang Xuan was startled, the thing in his hand fell to the ground with a bang, seeing the guard reaching out to grab him, he turned his head and ran away trembling.

He was so frightened that he wanted to scream and wanted Jiang Zhan to come and save him, but he was worried that Jiang Zhan would be dragged down and be beaten again, so he covered his mouth and ran forward, but within two steps, he was grabbed by the back of the neck by the guards behind him. Lifting it up like a chicken, I couldn't help struggling and crying.

"Look at who this little guy is?" The guard let out a playful laugh, and was about to call out for people to come and see, but at this moment he heard a "puchi" sound from behind him.

The guard froze, his eyes widened, and he turned his head to look behind him in disbelief. His face was immediately angry, and he opened his mouth to scold, but he spat out blood, and his whole body convulsed. The next moment, he fell straight on the ground.

Jiang Xuan hurriedly broke free from his hand, scrambled back, looked up in horror, and saw that Jiang Zhan was standing at the place where the guard fell, holding a bloody silver short knife in both hands, gasping for breath, His arms trembled, and he stared at the fallen guard beside him.

"Huang, Uncle Huang!" Jiang Xuan threw himself at his feet with a pale complexion, and was about to say more, but Jiang Zhan pushed his hands away, walked to the guard in two steps, still panting, and stabbed the dagger in again. The guard's neck.

Jiang Xuan suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air.

Jiang Zhan didn't look at him, and after making another stab, he confirmed that the guard was really dead, then went around to the direction of the guard's head, frowned and looked at it, bent down and lifted the guard's armpit.Only then did he turn his gaze to Jiang Xuan: "What are you doing in a daze? Go pick up the package and come over to help."

His morbid face was spattered with blood, showing a terrifying white against the moonlight, the tension and fear in those eyes seemed to have faded with the death of the guards, and now only the endless silence, calm and habitual .

Jiang Xuan, who was only seven years old, witnessed the second murder in his life, and this one was far bloodier, scarier and crueler than his father's death.At this moment, in this garden full of exotic flowers and plants and exquisite pavilions, the only person he can obey and trust is his uncle Jiang Zhan.

He involuntarily stood up tremblingly, walked back to pick up the wrapped cloth, and also picked up the things that fell out of the package.

It was a very heavy thing - it was jade, and it was like a thousand catties of iron in his hand.The jade was cut into squares, each side was bigger than his two palms combined, and a green dragon with a huge mouth was carved on the top, which was lifelike and majestic.

——The emperor asked him to risk his life to dig it up, but it was actually a decoration?

"Come here quickly!" Jiang Zhan urged in a low voice, interrupting his doubts.

He hurriedly wrapped the ornament with a wrapping cloth, walked quickly to Jiang Zhan, and with all his strength, he and Jiang Zhan dragged the big-armed guard to the lotus pond not far away.

There was no one around, Jiang Zhan straightened up, took a deep breath, raised his foot and kicked the guard.Hearing only a "gudu", the guard rolled into the lotus pond and sank.

The night wind blew at this time, and Jiang Zhan felt a bone-piercing cold, and his whole body shivered violently.

Jiang Zhan took the package from him, took a look at the ornaments in it, and stuffed back the stabbing knife he had just picked up from the package, and dragged Jiang Xuan to Chongning Hall in a hurry.

Jiang Xuan turned his head while walking, looking at the dark pond over there.

Under the moonlight in the dark night, the icy pond in early winter was glowing with dim light, like a pair of eyes staring at him.

"Don't look back at what you have done." Jiang Zhan hugged the two items in the package in his arms, and said in a deep voice, "Remember, there are only these two items in this world that can protect you forever."

When Pei Jun brought Jiang Yue back to Chashan, it was already the next night.The first people to see him and Jiang Yue in the mountains were a group of guards chatting with the villagers in the fields.

The guards more or less thought that Jiang Yue was more or less vicious, and when they saw him at this moment, they couldn't believe their eyes. When they realized it, they immediately burst into cheers, surrounded Jiang Yue in an instant, and rushed towards Zhao Guqing all the way. before.

Zhao Guqing burst into tears, and after hearing what Pei Jun had said, he sighed "God's will, God's will", and then bowed in front of Jiang Yue, leading all the soldiers to kowtow together and said: "Your Majesty is as blessed as the sky, and he survived a catastrophe. He is the Son of the Dragon Emperor." The phase! Zhao and all the soldiers will swear to follow the prince to the side, and help the prince to calm the world and create a prosperous world!"

Jiang Yuehong helped him up with eyes, and told him with difficulty that the Guo brothers had been killed in the battle, and the only counselor he could rely on in the future was Zhao Guqing, so Zhao Guqing must take care of himself and never swear to death again.

After all Zhao Guqing worked with the Guo brothers for several years, when he heard the news, did he cry for a while, or Dong Shu prepared a meal and came out to persuade him that the deceased was dead and the mourning was over, so he wiped away his tears and stopped crying.

After eating something briefly, Pei Jun led Jiang Yue to a courtyard with red plums, led him into the main room in the middle, held onto his hand and said: "I have always believed that you are not dead. I prepared these for you earlier, take a look, do you like them?"

Jiang Yue silently followed him into the room, bypassing a screen made of green bamboo, and saw that apart from the clean and tidy bed in the room, there was a simple wooden frame against the wall on the right. The porcelain pots and bowls of various colors fired in the earthen kiln are not exquisite, but they are not lacking in simplicity and cuteness. In front of the shelf, there is a low table and two low stools. On the table is a clay stove, which looks like cooking For tea.

"I remember you love tea. This is a tea mountain. Maybe you should have a good drink of tea." Pei Jun took his hand and pecked his lips, and said softly, "We may not eat enough, but the tea leaves are not enough. enough."

After he finished speaking, he laughed at himself in a low voice, but Jiang Yue suddenly hugged him.

Pei Jun heard Jiang Yue's forbearing breath coming from his ear, and after a while, drips of wetness came from the fabric on his shoulders.

"Jiang Yue?" he called, patted him on the back carefully, and became nervous, "What's the matter? This...does this hurt you?" Thinking of this, Pei Jun cursed himself in his heart, and was about to Said to take it all away, but heard Jiang Yue choking on his shoulder in a low voice:

"I'm defeated, Pei Jun...I'm defeated..."

Pei Jun hurriedly helped him to sit on the couch, and brushed away a lock of his temple hair: "Don't be stupid, Jiang Yue, no one can predict such a thing. You are still alive now, it is already the greatest thing that God has done to me. mercy."

"But so many people followed me...and died in Ningcheng." Jiang Yue looked at him with red eyes, tears streaming down his tired and thin cheeks, and gritted his teeth, "I hate you so much, Pei Jun ...I hate Cai Yan so much! I hate so much... There is not a day when I don't want to tear him into pieces, but even if I do, those people... will never come back anyway... I curse in my heart every day For myself, I only know that I am living in this world, and I don't even dare to let people outside know that I am ashamed... I am afraid that I will let them all down..."

The fragility he had hidden deep in his heart for the past few months shattered in front of Pei Jun in the dim light of the room at this moment.Pei Jun wiped his tears for him with extreme distress, held his face and said: "You won't, Jiang Yue, believe me. You live, not just to live, but to let more people in this world live better , Failure on this road is inevitable, and the so-called meritorious service and peace in this world are by no means so easy... I, Mr. Zhao, and the soldiers, we will always be with you until the day you succeed."

He gently patted Jiang Yue's back, continued to comfort him in a soft voice, and told him all the tragedies he had seen and the experiences he had felt along the way.He knew that Jiang Yue used to keep everything under wraps and never show it to others. It must be extremely heavy pressure that could make Jiang Yue confide in his heart like this.

Since ancient times, there have been many hardships for heroes, and since ancient times, there have been many misfortunes for emperors.All he can do is to be by his side, to have a reliable shoulder when he is so lonely and vulnerable.

Gradually, Jiang Yue fell asleep under his pat, as if he had never been peaceful in his life, curled up on the bed with his arms in his arms, for a moment, like a simple and sleepy teenager.

The door opened with a creak, Pei Yan came in with the quilt that had just been dried, she smiled and was about to talk, but she saw Pei Jun nestled with the sleeping Jiang Yue, she couldn't help being stunned, didn't speak, just put the quilt It was handed to Pei Jun, and he signaled Pei Jun to pick up with Jiang Yue.

Pei Jun was a little embarrassed, and lightly covered Jiang Yue with a quilt and walked out of the house. Uncle Dong and Pei Yan were outside to help Zhao Guqing arrange some troops brought by Jiang Yue.

When he walked over, Pei Yan was talking to Miraculous Physician Qian and said, "The new soldiers all have some wounds that have not been healed, and I'm afraid I will have to trouble Mr. Qian recently."

As she said that, she saw Pei Jun coming out, turned her head and looked at Pei Jun quietly for a while and asked, "Is Prince Jin injured?"

Pei Jun said embarrassingly: "On the way back... I saw that he seemed to be having difficulty walking, so I asked him, and he said that when he fell off the horse, his right leg was crushed by the saddle and his knee was crushed. It’s not straight… I wonder if this can be restored?”

Dr. Qian listened and said: "It's nothing more than the bone is healed, but the shrinking meridian is not adjusted. You come to see me tomorrow morning, and I will give you a prescription. Within a month, he will recover." Said Without waiting for Pei Jun to respond, he turned around and went back to the house.

Pei Yan was amused by his free-spirited behavior, she smiled and said with emotion: "The prince of Jin has never failed before, such a proud person, this time he has really suffered a great crime..."

Seeing the opportunity, Pei Jun said, "Pei Yan, actually Prince Jin and I—"

"Okay, you don't need to talk about it." Pei Yan looked at him like this and laughed, "I have seen how you have been looking for him these past few months, so I have already asked Mei Liu...Mei Liu nodded , I understand. Now that you have found him, you should stay with him well."

Pei Jun was slightly stunned, and after hearing her finish, he nodded with a sore nose, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said in a deep voice, "I'm really ashamed these days... Sometimes I think, his amulet, if at that time If Xuan'er is not given, will he..."

Pei Yan raised her hand to cover his mouth, and amidst the busy noises of people coming and going, she softly said to him: "If that's the case, Xuan'er and I will repay his kindness in the future, and as for you, as for He... you are all such good people, I believe everything will be arranged for the best, what do you think?"
