Lin Zhi heard the mention of her and walked over to her. Her face turned red and she said softly: "I...I met a pack of wolves on the way, and the horse was bitten to death. I couldn't escape, so I had to hide."
On a tree." She seemed to feel a little embarrassed when she said this, because it was she who said there were no wolves in this area, so she raised her voice and said, "But brother, you are a good person, and good people will have good luck, so that's why
Let me meet the little princess sister."
Only then did Xu Zizhen discover that Lin Zhi had a lot of scratches on her arms and legs, and several cuts on her face. It was obviously caused by running away from a pack of wolves, but the little girl didn't take it seriously. She was still concerned about Xu Zizhen's safety.
He felt a bit bitter in his mouth, and there was a tugging pain in his heart.
Ciyang was very discerning, and with a wave of his hand, he arranged for a dozen guards to form a semi-circle around the beaten Cangba, so as not to scare the girls.
Duoqi Zhuoma rummaged around in a small bag. After a while, she found a small porcelain bottle, poured out a pill and handed it to Xu Zizhen. Xu Zizhen didn't ask what it was, and swallowed it in one gulp. It would disperse from his stomach after a while.
There was a burst of warmth, and then it spread to all the limbs.
"Uncle, I will take you to see your aunt right now. Your injury is too serious and I can't cure it."
Duoqi Zhuoma was in a bit of a low mood. Xu Zizhen was kind to her. If he hadn't sent Li Meng and a group of horse thieves, it would have been doubtful whether her father's royal regime could have been stabilized. Moreover, Li Meng even called him uncle.
, in the little girl’s mind, this is the future elder.
Cangba's screams became softer and softer, and gradually they could no longer be heard. Duoqi Zhuoma didn't even look at her again. She could get angry occasionally, but she was still timid, while Lin Zhi looked at her with a complicated expression.
Cangba, who was surrounded, didn't know what he was thinking.
Several guards tore off the fence cloth on the wedding table to make a simple stretcher, and carefully carried Xu Zizhen out of the door. He couldn't ride a horse now. Fortunately, it wasn't too far from here to Zhuo Ya's residence, so it was just a stretcher.
I can only walk.
Su San was placed in the carriage. Duoqi Zhuoma, who was originally riding in the carriage, rode beside Xu Zizhen. The guards were scattered around to protect them in the center. Cangba died and Lin Zhi was free. Of course, she left with Xu Zizhen.
It's just that she refused to ride a horse. Instead, she followed Xu Zizhen's stretcher on foot. She held Xu Zizhen's hand tightly with her little hands and couldn't persuade him to move away.
Xu Zizhen felt a warm feeling in his heart. He knew that this little girl was actually extremely insecure. She had been in this strange and far away place from her hometown since she was a child, and had been a slave for so many years. Now she would definitely be free as soon as she was free.
There was a brief moment of confusion and fear.
Looking at Lin Zhi who was holding his hand tightly, Xu Zizhen couldn't help but ask: "Zhi'er, where are your parents?"
"My father died of illness when I was a child. Later, people from Liao came to my hometown, and my mother took me to escape. However, we met a thief on the road, who deceived my mother and sold us to Tubo.
." Lin Zhi tried hard to recall her childhood, and her voice lowered as she spoke, "My mother didn't want to remarry, so she was beaten to death by the man who bought her, so... I was left alone."
Xu Zizhen was furious: "What? Damn that bastard Cangba, just beating him to death is too polite!"
Lin Zhi hurriedly said: "Brother, please don't be angry. Your health is important. You made a mistake. Mr. Cangba was not the one who bought my mother. After my mother died, I cried so much that I became seriously ill. He thought I was going to die soon.
I threw it out, but Master Cangba picked it up. In fact, it was Master Cangba who raised me to this day."
"Uh..." Xu Zizhen was dumbfounded. He didn't expect such a result. So Cangba can be regarded as Lin Zhi's benefactor? No! He wanted to force Su San to marry him, and he also used my life as a bargaining chip.
, after all, he is not a good person and deserves to die.
Lin Zhi then said coyly: "But...but Master Cangba said that he raised me and I have to marry him when I turn fifteen."
"Damn! Beast!" Xu Zizhen got angry again. After a few curses, he suddenly said, "Zhi'er, do you want to go back to the Song Dynasty and your hometown?"
Lin Zhi said: "Of course I want to, but I don't even know if I have any relatives in my hometown, and no one will care about me when I go back." She shed tears as she spoke.
Xu Zizhen felt distressed for a while and said: "Who said you have no relatives? If you are willing, I will be your brother from now on, your biological brother, okay?"
Lin Zhi opened her eyes wide, looking surprised and happy, with tears hanging on her long eyelashes, looking both cute and heart-wrenching.
Xu Zizhen couldn't help but laugh and said: "Silly girl, I won't wait until you grow up to force you to marry me, don't worry."
Lin Zhi was stunned for a while, then suddenly cheered, holding Xu Zizhen's hand tightly with both hands, laughing and jumping and shouting: "I have a brother, I have a brother!"
A laugh came from the side: "Hehe! Uncle, you are really good at deceiving little girls."
Xu Zizhen turned around and saw that it was Duoqi Zhuoma, so he deliberately said with a straight face: "What do you mean by Guoran? That brat Li Meng has always said bad things about me in front of you, right?"
Doqi Dolma realized that she seemed to have said the wrong thing, and was so frightened that she stuck out her tongue and did not dare to continue the topic. She muttered: "I think you should think about how to lie to my aunt later. She has no idea this time."
Don't be angry with you."
Xu Zizhen was stunned for a moment: "What is she angry about? I don't care about her either."
"Then I don't know. Anyway, if you don't coax your aunt first, she may not be able to treat your injuries." After saying that, Duoqi Zhuoma ran away and went back to the car to accompany Su San.
Xu Zizhen was confused and didn't know why. He tried hard to think about whether he had promised Zhuo Ya something one day, but he couldn't remember it for a long time. At this time, he hated Duoqi Zhuoma a little, and he didn't know her.
I gave myself some medicine, and my spirits suddenly improved. It has been a long time, and I am not in a coma again. Otherwise, it would be great to be in a coma and relieve all my worries.
After walking a short distance, several guards caught up. Cangba was really beaten to death, his slaves were confiscated, and his manor land was confiscated. After all, Duoqi Dolma was soft-hearted and did not
After hearing this, he dismissed them, but Xu Zizhen was relieved and comforted Lin Zhi for a while.
The journey of dozens of miles was neither far nor close, until they arrived at the other side of the Yalong River near dusk. Looking around, they could not see a piece of grassland, a few horses and dozens of cattle and sheep.
Walking casually on the grass, everything looks so quiet and peaceful.
Xu Zizhen took a deep breath, closed his eyes slightly and murmured: "It's really a place where gods live. It would be a good choice for me to come here to wait for death when I get old."
Doqi Dolma appeared behind me again at some point and said with a smile: "I will tell my aunt this. I think she will be very happy."
Xu Zizhen didn't understand: "Why do you want her to be happy?"
Duoqi Zhuoma pointed a white finger not far away: "Well, because that's where my aunt lives."
