All the lights in the garden seemed to be gathered in one place, and a water pavilion looked like a moon palace in the sparkling light.
There are two figures in the Moon Palace. The woman in white fur is sitting by the water. The man in black fur is standing aside. He puts a rabbit lantern in the woman's arms. The woman's hands slowly move
He rubbed it with a slight smile on his lips.
After looking at the lamp, Wu Ya'er reached out and hung it under the pillar, then picked up a lamp from under his feet and put it in the woman's arms.
This is a flower basket lantern. The woman's hands are gentle and gentle, like brushing the fresh petals.
Li Minglou stood aside and watched. The scene was as beautiful as a painting, but he couldn't help but smile. These lamps were very crudely made, just like the incense and wooden dog toys he sent...
These rough handicrafts may have been made by the woman for him, or he may have been made by him for the woman, as a way of comforting each other in their difficult lives.
In the Moon Palace, Wu Ya'er stretched out his hand and raised his head to hang a lamp. The light shone on his face, which was white and transparent.
Li Minglou raised his voice and said: "Wu Ya'er."
Wu Ya'er looked over, and he had already seen Li Minglou standing aside, dimly wrapped in a black cloak, flickering in and out of the night. He knew she was looking at them, but since she didn't come over, he didn't say hello.
He knew what she was thinking. He told her that there were unspeakable difficulties in his life experience. When mother and son had seen each other for such a long time, they were bound to talk about some past events. She avoided it so that they could talk freely and easily.
He accepted her wishes.
Of course, if she wanted to be with them, he would too.
Wu Ya'er waved to her and watched Li Minglou walking in the darkness. He leaned over and picked up the last lamp at his feet.
"Is it okay?" he asked.
Li Minglou looked at it seriously: "Do you still want to tell the truth?"
Wu Ya'er smiled and said, "You can also tell lies."
Li Minglou smiled, looked at him and said, "Not very good."
Wu Ya'er knelt down and put the lamp on the woman's knee, and said happily: "Mom, look at this, this, some people say it's very beautiful."
You praised it yourself, Li Minglou pursed his lips, and he said someone said, why not say Que'er said?
"Madam, what do you think?" she asked, bending in front of the woman.
The warrior woman said, "Let me take a look." She stretched out her hand and rubbed the lantern carefully. She seemed to be able to see the shape of a lying tiger and the fat baby riding a tiger sketched on it... "It's beautiful.
Very nice.”
Wu Ya'er raised his eyebrows when he looked up at Li Minglou: "Your taste is as good as my mother's."
Li Minglou didn't look at him, but looked at the woman and said, "Madam, you can tell whatever your crow does."
Mrs. Wu stretched out a hand to touch Wu Ya'er's face, and said with a smile: "Crow'er is good, everything is good."
Li Minglou saw Wu Ya'er's eyes turn slightly red. She was about to look away, but Mrs. Wu was one step ahead of her. She stood up, and her originally smiling expression became uneasy. She looked around...
"Mom, I'm here." Wu Ya'er stretched out his long hand and hugged her, forcefully and gently, "Yao Ya'er is here, you can touch her and see."
The woman hesitated and touched Wu Ya'er's head.
Li Minglou bent down to pick up the lantern that had fallen down. Kumquat immediately stepped forward to take it and called the old lady sweetly: "Wan'er and you can hang up the lantern made by Crow'er together."
I don't know if it was because of Wan'er's or Wu'er's name, but the woman put away her panic and said hello. Wu Ya'er let go of her, and Jin Jue reached out to help the woman and asked her to walk aside holding the lamp.
Li Minglou whispered: "It's still not good?"
Wu Ya'er said: "It's okay, it was like this before."
Li Minglou hesitated and said, "I think I was still frightened."
Wu Ya'er let out a breath, stood side by side with her and looked at the woman who was slightly tiptoeing to hang the lamp, and said: "My mother has been in fright, and she has never been able to get rid of fright."
It would be inappropriate to talk about it any further. He was still curious about Mrs. Wu before, but after making a guess, Li Minglou suddenly didn’t want to know, at least he didn’t want to hear it from Wu Yaer’s mouth.
She didn't want him to say it.
"It's better to be by your side." Li Minglou said, turning to look at him, "You, take your mother and leave."
When Wu Ya'er heard these words, he felt as if he was struck by lightning, and asked, "Why?"
Li Minglou was stunned by this question and asked: "Why?"
.......
........
Yuan Ji, who was hiding in the corridor not far away, was not puzzled at all when he heard Li Minglou's words. Jiang Ming was really right! The lady really wants to give her mother back to Wu Ya'er!
But let’s just pay it back. In the beginning, Wu Ya’er Niang was a hostage and tied them to the Zhenwu Army. Now that they have experienced so many things together, there are too many ties and kinks. Without Wu Yaer Niang, they would still be divided.
Not open.
And now that the strength is equal, no one can easily infringe the other.
The young lady is originally a kind-hearted person. If Wu Ya'er had proposed to take Mrs. Wu away two years ago, the young lady might not have agreed.
It's just that Wu Ya'er is suspicious and doesn't believe the lady.
Look, even now, the lady took the initiative to speak out, and he also questioned the lady's ulterior motives.
Why?
For your Hebei Road? Or for your soldiers and horses?
For the reunion of your mother and son!
.....
.....
Li Minglou's confusion made Wu Ya'er react instantly.
"You mean." He was slightly embarrassed, "Let me take my mother..."
The wish came true too suddenly and you were frightened? Li Minglou smiled and said: "Yes, you can take your mother back to Hebei Road."
Under the lamp, her eyes were like water, sparkling.
"You and your mother will be reunited from now on."
There is no need to write letters, look at paintings, or look into the distance. One was supposed to die a few years ago, and the other is about to die in a year. They stay together in an unknown destiny.
Wu Ya'er said: "Thank you."
Li Minglou looked at him and asked deliberately: "Thank you for letting me let your mother go?"
Wu Ya'er looked at the playful woman in front of him and said, "Thank you for taking care of her for so long."
Li Minglou straightened his figure: "You're welcome, I'm a god, benevolent and protect all living beings."
Wu Ya'er laughed.
Li Minglou pursed his lips and turned around with a smile: "Go to rest early. You will have enough energy to travel."
Wu Ya'er looked at her back and wanted to open his mouth to call her, but he had nothing to say, so he could only watch her drift away and disappear into the night.
He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt sad even though it was something he was happy about.
He only had dinner with her twice.
He and she haven't said a few words yet.
He has only been here a few days.
Moreover, it was almost Chinese New Year, but she drove him away.
...
.......
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and in troubled times we look forward to reunion more than in times of peace.
But probably because of the war in troubled times, reunions always make people nervous and uneasy.
The guards of the Xiang family and the soldiers and horses of the Qi family surrounded Mr. Xiang and stood at the intersection. Mr. Xiang kept looking forward, with an expectant and nervous face.
They were not the only ones who were nervous. The guards at a checkpoint in Henan Road ahead were also nervous, staring at the soldiers and horses galloping in the distance.
There are more than two thousand soldiers and horses. Although it is not many, whether they can fight or not can be distinguished at a glance in troubled times.
These soldiers and horses are not easy to mess with at first glance.
"Will you let me pass?" a guard asked nervously.
Those soldiers and horses had no flags, so it was impossible to tell whether they were guards or rebels.
The checkpoint guard glared at him: "Nonsense, of course I'll let you pass."
No matter who it is, as long as they don't take action, they will pretend they can't see it.
The guard was still very nervous: "What if they don't pass but want to stay?"
These soldiers and horses deliberately did not display flags or identify themselves, and their intentions were somewhat unclear.
The checkpoint guard glared at him again: "It's almost Chinese New Year, so don't be so clumsy."
They have always been lucky. There were big battles in the capital of Linzhou in the past few times, and the rebel guards would pass by here without disturbing them. They even took advantage of Mrs. Chu's attack on the capital to gain benefits, and followed the passerby.
The rebels fought a battle and reported it to the Linzhou court, making Henan Province famous for once.
The guard thought silently in his heart, it was a passing soldier, it was a passing soldier. If not...then he would have no choice but to abandon the checkpoint and return to the city with his soldiers and horses.
Under the watchful eye of the checkpoint guards, luck struck again. The group of soldiers and horses galloped past without even looking this way, and quickly left.
The guards at the checkpoint breathed a sigh of relief and cheered.
"I've told you a long time ago that since we defeated the Anqing Zhong soldiers and horses, anyone who wants to fight us must think twice." The guard straightened his back and said loudly, "Not everyone can step on us."
The guards around him all complimented him.
"But who are these soldiers and horses?" A guard looked curiously, "Why don't you identify yourself?"
The guard didn't bother to care: "He must be doing something shameful."
.......
.......
Soldiers and horses without flags appeared in sight at full speed, and excited and nervous shouts rang out from around Mr. Xiang.
