"Li Ang, you just said you didn't know my wife, how come you know her the next day?" Mo Lengzhou's tone was a little unhappy.

He felt that the person in front of him was a flatterer, and he hated flatterers the most.

"My dear, Li Ang used to be the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple. He was very busy, so it's normal that he didn't recognize me at first glance. Besides, I was only eleven years old at that time."

Lu Zhitao pulled Mo Lengzhou's sleeve and explained with a smile, "An eleven-year-old girl has not yet grown up, not to mention that girls change a lot when they grow up."

"Thank you, ma'am, for making excuses for me. Actually, there is no change in your facial features. It's just that I am short-sighted." Li Ang said gratefully.

"It's not that I'm shortsighted, nor that girls change a lot when they grow up, but the Madam has changed so much!"

"Then tell me what my wife was like before." Mo Lengzhou's tone softened a lot.

He wanted to know everything about Lu Zhitao, but he didn't know that Lu Zhitao at that time was not the same Lu Zhitao as before.

When Li Ang saw Mo Lengzhou's expression suddenly soften, he knew how much the cold man in front of him loved his wife.

It has been a long time since he recalled the past, when he was dressed in fine clothes and rode a horse, and lived in glory.

The past was like a beautiful painting, but after years of ravage, those vague and beautiful memories have long been forgotten.

At that time, his hearty laughter was like the singing of birds in the morning light, crisp and melodious, full of vitality and hope.

My career is going smoothly, and I am surrounded by admiring eyes and the laughter of friends.

At every banquet, he would attract countless admiring gazes, as if he were a shining star that made it impossible to look away.

But all these have become a thing of the past. Just a few years later, at the age of 35, his face was already full of wrinkles and vicissitudes.

His figure seemed particularly lonely, and his eyes were filled with deep fatigue, as if he was struggling against the endless darkness.

The former glory is gone, replaced by the burden of life and endless misery.

"Do you really want to hear it?" Li Ang's voice was as light and weak as a fallen leaf blown away by the wind.

"I'm very interested in everything about your wife's past. If you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. My wife has told me before."

Mo Lengzhou said this against his will. He looked at the tired face opposite him and suppressed his curiosity.

"It's not impossible to say that after struggling on the brink of death for two years, there's nothing to be depressed about."

Li Ang said in a calm voice, those beautiful pictures emerged in his mind.

During this long period of silence, Li Ang gradually realized that the ups and downs of life are like the ebb and flow of the ocean waves, which cannot last forever.

He looked at Mo Lengzhou and said softly, "Since Village Chief Mo is interested, then I will tell you.

I served as the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple for ten years. I have a very good memory and a deep impression of people and things.

It was eight years ago, on a sunny afternoon, golden sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves onto the street.

The entire capital city was coated with a warm golden glow, with a gentle breeze and swaying shadows of trees.

I did save a little girl who was about eleven or twelve years old. She was still a thin figure at that time.

Although there was a little dust on her face, it added a touch of warmth to her shy and isolated expression.

Perhaps she was being threatened by some thugs. Despite her young age, her eyes were filled with hostility and extremism.

At the same time, there was a flash of anger, as if ready to declare war on the world at any time, and no one dared to approach.

It is like an untamed beast, giving people a ferocious and unapproachable feeling.

But at this moment, the hostility in the lady's eyes had disappeared, and her delicate facial features were still faintly visible.

It was as if that childish ferocity had long been smoothed out by time, leaving only gentleness.

Compared to her original appearance, she now seems to be the embodiment of another life…”

Li Ang was observing Lu Zhitao as he spoke. Her changes were not only in appearance, but also in her inner transformation.

It seemed as if the cycle of fate had found its destination at this moment, and all this should be attributed to the young man beside her!

As Li Ang spoke, Mo Lengzhou's mind flashed with the image of Lu Zhitao at the age of eleven.

Recalling the time when he accidentally saw her eyes full of anger, he came to the conclusion that she had not had a good life in the past.

He will cherish her even more and make sure that she always has a confident and calm smile on her face.

He loved to see her smile the most. Her smile was like a flower blooming among thousands of flowers.

The bright smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, soothing this weathered man.

At this moment, there was a gleam of confidence in her eyes, as if the haze of the past had long been washed away.

She is no longer the little girl immersed in loneliness and anger, but a strong and courageous girl.

Her eyes sparkled with longing and expectation for the future, and he would definitely make her happy forever.

Mo Lengzhou made a decision in his heart, and when he saw Li Ang finished speaking, he gave them orders.

"Li Ang, Zhao Ming, the two of you will temporarily take over the positions of Liangzhou prefect and advisor."

"Village Chief Mo, can I really do this?" Zhao Ming asked timidly.

"Village Chief Mo, we will definitely not let you down." Li Ang promised, patting his chest.

"Don't worry, Brother Gongxi will personally make the arrangements, and my husband will also select a few young men to accompany you to protect you."

Lu Zhitao said with a smile that Mo Lengzhou had finally come to his senses and he must not be allowed to retreat.

A bold idea had already emerged in her mind - she hoped that Mo Lengzhou could ascend the throne as emperor as soon as possible.

Become the ruler of this turbulent Nanzhao and lead the people of Nanzhao to the long-lost peace and prosperity.

As she thought about these things, her eyes became dark and bright, reflecting a vibrant vitality.

She looked like an inconspicuous pearl covered in dust, whose dust was wiped off by a sudden rain, and she began to shine again.

Her smile not only healed herself, but also warmed all the refugees present.

Li Ang was only excited and not afraid, but Zhao Ming was not so confident.

After all, he was just a scholar, and his inner thoughts gradually became clear in this endless struggle.

He knew that timidity was short-lived, but strong will would last forever, no matter how the storm came.

He will face every challenge that comes his way with the strongest attitude.

If he could survive those despairs, he would definitely be able to be a good assistant to Leon. Thinking of this, he felt an unprecedented power.

A fighting spirit that comes from deep within the heart is like a flower breaking through the soil, striving to grow towards the sun.

"Brother, can I go with Brother Gongxi?" Mo Yunfei asked eagerly.

"Okay. If anyone else wants to go to Liangzhou City, just stand next to Brother Gongxi." Mo Lengzhou said to the teenagers.

"Are the village chief and his wife going?" Yan Tianyou asked weakly.

"We will definitely go." As soon as Mo Lengzhou finished speaking, he heard hurried footsteps.
