Spring Drunk Chang'an

Nanny Ji pointed at Bai Song and chattered non-stop.

Liu Yu lowered his head, expressionless, and said nothing.

It was as if everything had nothing to do with him.

however……

From what Nanny Ji said, we can tell that he did a lot in private.

Liu Yu values ​​her and Shi Xiaoyue. They may be the only two friends he has in his twenty years of life.

"Thank you for your help, Master Yu. Xiaoyue and I appreciate your kindness!" Liu Changan was touched and her smile became gentle. She picked up the serving chopsticks and picked up some tofu for Liu Yu. She asked kindly, "We haven't seen each other for a while. How come you came here recently?"

"Is everything good?"

Living under Qu Qiutong, Liu Yu must not be in a good condition, but Liu Changan did not want to poke at his scars. He asked this question on behalf of the Song family.

She glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw, as expected, an ordinary gray sedan parked behind the big pine tree.

The old curtain was slightly opened, revealing half a face.

It’s the Song family.

She came.

Liu Changan pursed his lips, turned his body slightly, and moved himself out of the way of Song's sight, so that she could see Liu Yu more conveniently and clearly.

Under the pine tree, Song sat tensely in the sedan chair, her eyes staring longingly at the thin and pale figure in the pavilion.

It's choking to breathe.

Tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes, blurring her vision. She quickly wiped her eyes with her cold hands.

She was afraid that her tears would delay her from seeing her son.

Yu'er, this child has become thinner and his face has become much paler. He is obviously a young man who has just come of age, but his spirit and energy cannot compare to a middle-aged woman like me. It's all because of Liu Xiu and Qu Qiutong.

Liu Xiu, you bastard, he really deserves to die!

Song was crying so hard that she was about to have a convulsion, but she didn't dare to make any sound and could only watch blankly.

In the pavilion, in order to let Song look at him for a while longer, Liu Changan tried his best to find topics to chat with Liu Yu.

however……

She was not a talkative person, and Liu Yu was even more of a "mute gourd". He was unwilling to speak even when asked all the questions. The two of them looked at each other in confusion.

I could hear Shi Xiaoyue and Nanny Ji laughing and talking.

The brother and sister, who had never met before, exchanged a tacit look of 'sympathy'.

"...Nanny, things have been really chaotic lately. If you and Yu Ge'er go out, you'd better bring some servants with you to protect you. It would be really troublesome if you get bumped into by refugees!"

Shi Xiaoyue, who was originally discussing with Nanny Ji how much sugar to put in the osmanthus cake, suddenly seemed to remember something, glanced at Liu Yu's wheelchair, and made a worried suggestion.

"The situation is chaotic? Why is it so chaotic?" Nanny Ji was slightly startled, instinctively puzzled. "Speaking of refugees, our village has indeed brought in quite a few people recently. They said they were fleeing the war at the border..."

"Yes, there was a fight at the border!" Shi Xiaoyue sighed.

Border!

Lord Cheng'en, her grandfather Song Bin is at the border!

Liu Changan suddenly perked up and listened carefully.

Shi Xiaoyue said, "My father said that at the border, the Duke of Song and the Hu people started fighting. The Duke of Song killed the Hu prince, and the Hu people broke through two small towns. The areas near the border were fortified and cleared. Many people fled with their families to avoid the war. Some went to the fertile land in the south, and many came to the capital, hoping to seek refuge at the feet of the emperor!"

"However, the Jingzhao prefecture governor refused to accept refugees into the city and expelled the people into the countryside. It is said that those people are scattered in villages and towns everywhere. Some rely on begging for a living, and many people rob..."

"When you go out with Brother Yu'er, be careful!"

Due to health reasons, Liu Yu never brings guards or servants with him when he goes out. It's just him and Nanny Ji. Normally, there is no risk and everything is fine, but now the situation is chaotic, what if they encounter refugees!

Nanny Ji is in her early sixties, and Liu Yu has difficulty walking. The two of them were blocked by refugees and couldn't escape. They were definitely going to be robbed.

Especially Liu Yu, his belt inlaid with Hetian jade is worth over a hundred taels.

"Ah, is it so dangerous? Okay, okay, I will definitely be careful with the young master. We, we..." Nanny Ji wanted to say, "Take the servant with you when you go out in the future." However, she glanced at Liu Yu awkwardly and said, "The young master and I should stay out of the house."

Just stay at home.

"Well, or if you go out, stay close to your own farm and don't go to remote, unfamiliar places!" Shi Xiaoyue warned seriously, "Sister Chang'an and I dare to go out alone because we have Daxiong with us. With his skills, even a dozen strong men can't get close to him."

"We're not afraid at all!"

Ah!

It seems the Song family only brought two sedan chair bearers with them. Is everything alright?

Liu Changan was worried. He glanced at them and thought of their own Yuantan Temple, a place with a lot of people coming and going, and all the people who came and went were powerful and influential. There was nothing to be afraid of, but...

At the border, Duke Cheng'en fought with the Hu people.

It was around this time in the previous life, about ten days later, when Duke Cheng'en repelled the Hu people and won a great victory. However, one of his lieutenant generals, Zhao Qingyun, went to the emperor and filed a complaint, saying that Duke Cheng'en was colluding with the enemy and betraying his country, and that the two small cities captured by the Hu people were because of Duke Cheng'en's leak of military secrets.

At that time, Liu Chang'an in her previous life was still working as a night incense lady in the Ningguo Mansion. She didn't know about the important events in the court, nor did she know how the Emperor investigated. Anyway, the entire family of the Cheng'en Mansion was executed and all three clans were exiled.

Only a few married women were left, and they survived under the protection of Queen Song.

Since then, Song's health deteriorated rapidly, and she gradually handed over the internal affairs of the government to Aunt Lai.

She was surprised that Liu Chang'an could be recognized in that situation, but no one in the mansion explained it to her. When she met Song, there was a nanny guarding her. Song only vaguely told her that it was one of her "cousins" who became suspicious and helped to investigate. However, that "cousin" was implicated by the Cheng'en Mansion and was sent to be a slave to the armored men.

None of them can be saved.

Song would burst into tears whenever she mentioned it, and Liu Changan didn't dare to ask too much.

After the fall of Duke Cheng'en's Mansion, the next thing that happened was the dethronement of the Crown Prince. Well, I have to find a time to talk to His Highness. Although, well, she can't help much and doesn't even know how the Crown Prince was dethroned?

But, I care.

After all, she has been involved in this for so long, she might be able to ask the prince for some information.

He has even sent people to the border.

Liu Changan bit his lip, feeling both nervous and indescribably awkward.

"Sister Chang'an, are you hot?" Shi Xiaoyue, who had just finished chatting with Nanny Ji and was about to have some tea to continue the conversation, happened to turn around and saw Liu Chang'an's face. "You're so red!"

"Red? What red?" Liu Changan came back to his senses instantly and was stunned.

Shi Xiaoyue pinched her cheeks and said, "It's your face, it's as red as a monkey's butt? If it's so hot, drink some tea!"

"Uh, I, I..."

I blushed, not because of the heat, but...

"Okay, thank you Xiaoyue."

Liu Changan obediently picked up the teacup and took two sips. When he was about to speak, Liu Yu across from him suddenly started coughing violently, "Cough cough cough cough!"
