Not far away, Zhuo Yan and others watched Mrs. Gu and her party riding away on horseback. They could no longer hear the sound of horse hooves. However, looking at their master, he still didn't move on the horse and didn't react at all. It was as if
It's like being tapped on a hole.
"Master, something is not right." Several followers reacted and hurried forward to check.
Just when he was about to ask, he saw his master suddenly riding his horse towards the city gate. He who always cherished his mount unexpectedly whipped his whip.
The followers didn't know what happened, so they could only rush their horses to chase after him.
The city gate has been closed, and the torch at the city gate illuminates a young man standing upright with his hands behind his back, looking at the people and horses running towards him in the night not far away.
"Open the city gate." He Zexu, who pulled the reins fiercely and forced the horse to stop, roared with a trembling voice.
It was the first time since Xiao An saw his father that he looked so scary. However, Xiao An was not afraid: "Your Majesty, our wife said that as long as you come back alive and well, you will get the answer you want."
.”
At this time, Zhuo Yan and others also arrived, looking at the scene in front of them with confusion, wondering what was going on with Mrs. Gu.
What did you say to your master? What stimulated your master to this point?
After listening to Xiao An's words, He Zexu got off his horse, ignored Xiao An, and went up to push the city gate. If it couldn't be pushed, he slapped it with both hands.
While slapping, he gritted his teeth and restrained himself from shouting the two words in his throat.
The little bit of sanity he had left reminded him not to shout.
"Our wife is here in these six cities and will not go anywhere. Doesn't the prince have more urgent matters to deal with right now?" Xiao An felt very distressed when he saw his father like this, but he had to calm down and remind him.
What's more important? He Zexu suddenly turned around and reached out to grab Xiao An's shirt, lowered his voice, looked into his eyes and asked: "You must know a lot about her, right? Tell me quickly."
At this time, Xiao An almost felt like crying. Dad, what do I know? Son, besides knowing that you are my father, I don’t know much about other things!
What's more, even if I knew it clearly, I wouldn't dare tell you without my mother's consent!
"Your Majesty, please don't embarrass me, General. Are you sure you want to waste time here? Aren't you afraid that this may cause another regret?" Xiao An reminded him again with a hard heart.
After He Zexu heard this, he was startled and let go of his hand.
He turned around and lowered his head to face the city gate, stood for a while, slowly turned around to his horse, got on his horse, looked in the direction of the city gate again, gritted his teeth and rode away.
Xiao An watched his father and his entourage disappear into the night again. He did not feel relieved. Instead, he sighed and shouted to open the door. The city gate creaked open and he walked in.
Recruiting the gatekeepers who had been dismissed by him earlier to come back and guard the gate, he took the horse's reins from his entourage.
Xiao An mounted his horse and returned to the government office, and the heavy city gate behind him was closed again.
Outside the city gate, He Zexu was galloping, and the voice sounded in his ears over and over again: "Brother Huai, come back well, Sanniang will make sweet and sour fish for you!"
In the past thirteen years, he had heard this voice countless times in his dreams.
Every time it was real, but every time I woke up, I realized it was a dream.
But this time, it was not a dream!
At dawn, He Zexu realized that the horses were too much to bear, so he quickly ordered them to stop and rest.
The entourage quickly fed the horses and lit a fire to heat dry food.
He Zexu leaned against a big tree with his eyes closed, looking like he was resting. In fact, he was trying to calmly sort out his chaotic thoughts.
That voice belongs to Sanniang, there is nothing wrong with it.
He thought that this voice would only be heard in his dreams, but he didn't expect it.
Sanniang is Mrs. Gu? Mrs. Gu is his Sanniang?
Thinking about the three cities of Xuzhou, it seems that it happened in the 12th or 13th year, so the time can match.
Thirteen years ago, he left the Soul-Dead Valley, and three years ago he was pushed into the river by his cousin Jiang Yurong and died tragically. Around that year, Mrs. Gu appeared in the three cities of Xuzhou.
Also, when I met Mrs. Gu this time, she said she couldn't speak because of her throat problem. It turned out that she was afraid that he would hear her voice!
No wonder, when I saw her on the street, the look in her eyes and expression was like that.
The person he has missed for many years is right in front of him, but he doesn't recognize him!
Thinking of this, He Zexu slammed his fist on the ground in frustration. The gravel on the ground was embedded in the surface of his fist, and he couldn't feel the pain.
Also, the border battle at the end of last year was obviously a near-death defeat, but General An led his men to turn the tide of the battle.
Afterwards, it was learned that General An and others were from Wucheng, and his subordinates also analyzed whether he had deliberately provided assistance so that he could owe the other party a favor, so that he could be accommodating to Wucheng in the future.
Thinking about it now, the real reason should be that Sanniang learned about the war situation on the border and ordered General An to lead people to help.
"Sanniang, you're still alive, Sanniang is still alive, hahaha." He Zexu shouted in a low voice, shouting and laughing.
Laughing and laughing, and bursting into tears.
Zhuo Yan and others looked at their master from a distance, sometimes laughing, sometimes covering their faces and wiping away tears. They were all frightened. They were all worried about their master, but no one dared to step forward to dissuade or comfort him.
At this time in Dama City, Wei Zijun, who had not slept all night, did not shed any tears.
After learning that that person returned to Beijing this time and planned to die together, not only the three children panicked, but she also panicked.
In desperation, he rode up to catch up and whispered something in his ear.
She knew that her move and her voice would frighten and shock him, but she didn't expect that his reaction would be even more exaggerated than she imagined.
While he was frozen, she had the chance to return to the city.
Later, when he chased her to the city gate, she had not returned to the government office at that time and was on the other side of the city gate.
He slapped the city gate, and she leaned against the city gate, and she could clearly feel the movement of the city gate being slapped by him.
Why did she run away after saying those words to him?
Because she didn't think about how to explain to him at all, she was panicked at that time.
It's fine now. If he wants to know the answer, he will definitely find a way to stay alive before he has the chance to ask her.
From now on, it won't be too short before he comes again. She should have plenty of time to figure out how to explain to him.
Near noon, Xiao An came to see Wei Zijun with a strange expression.
"What's the matter?" Wei Zijun, who had been up all night, asked in a low spirit.
"Zhuo Yan didn't leave, it was his entourage." Xiao An told him, saying that it was almost noon when Zhuo Yan went to the city gate to enter the city, but the soldiers guarding the gate did not dare to let him in. Zhuo Yan said that he had information to report to General An.
, so they sent the person to the government office...
