A bucket of Jiangshan [Rebirth]

Fangcheng and Jingcheng are at the north and south ends of the Jing Dynasty. Even if you travel overnight, it will take more than 20 days to reach Fangcheng.

Although Yan Shulou and his wife were eager to go to Fangcheng, they were rushing there in winter after all, and they had to stay for a few days on a snowy day, especially in the middle of the journey. The body couldn't adapt, and suddenly got a cold and a fever. After being sick for a while, Yan Shu jumped up and down the stairs in a hurry, taking care of Du Mingqian day and night.Thanks to Du Mingqian's courage, seeing Yan Shulou busy in and out, with dark circles under his eyes, he couldn't bear it, so he poured hot water, urged his internal energy to help him sweat, and forced himself to recover from his illness in just a few days.But even though he recovered, his body was still very weak, and he often leaned against Yan Shulou's arms, feeling weak.

Therefore, due to various delays, they traveled for more than a month before arriving in Fangcheng.

In the past month or so, many things, big or small, have happened in the Jing Dynasty, and news will reach Yan Shulou every few days.

Changed into Yan Shulou and Du Mingqian's men, they rushed to Tongzhou, took down the governor who had received a false imperial order to seal the city, escorted him to Beijing for interrogation, and rescued Yanpin City, who was tortured beyond human form by illness, and the people trapped in the city .They also brought a large amount of relief supplies and medical personnel to save the local people from the fire and water and alleviate the local disaster situation.

All of a sudden, the reputation of Yanshu Tower in Tongzhou soared, even overshadowing Yanpin City, which went to rescue first.

However, the plague did not stop its evil hands in all directions because of the salvation of one city. The speed of the spread of the plague was unexpected, but in just one month, it quickly spread to all the central regions.The people were panicked, and the rumors that were not good for the imperial court spread more and more widely. In some places, the people infected with the plague were abandoned by the local government and thrown out of the city. .For a while, Jing Chao was in a mess.

At such a stand, the emperor had to brace himself up and deal with government affairs. Unexpectedly, within a day, there was a news of a thunderbolt. It turned out that the Xicheng Kingdom in the Western Regions was causing trouble on the border of the Jing Dynasty, harassing the people of the Jing Dynasty, and even robbing the people of the country. food.

People found out that there was a sudden heavy snowfall in Xicheng Kingdom this year, and there were a lot of ice disasters, which resulted in no crops and no food for the local people. Therefore, they took advantage of the chaos in the Jing Dynasty to grab food.

At that time, the emperor didn't care about it, thinking it was just an ordinary civil disturbance, so he sent people to negotiate a peace. Unexpectedly, the people of Xicheng secretly killed the ambassador who was negotiating peace, and threatened that if the court would not provide them with food, they would spread the plague into the capital and seize the peace. The life of the Son of Heaven.

The plague was just a thorn in the emperor's heart. Now that he heard this inquiry, the emperor fainted on the spot. After waking up, he waved his hand with a pale face and sent envoys to discuss peace.

Before the envoy left, Yan Guangyu suddenly asked Ying to lead the army to go out and drive those Xiao Xiao out of the Jing Dynasty, so that he could see the power of the Jing Dynasty.

The emperor thought about it again and again, and agreed to his proposal. At this time, Fan Yi, the provincial servant, came forward and said that these minions are nothing to be afraid of.As soon as his proposal came to fruition, many officials echoed it, many of them were followers of Yan Shulou.

However, Zhongshuling Fang Qianyun held a different attitude, thinking that the prince leading the army could stabilize the hearts of the people and let the people all over the world see that the court cared about the people and was determined to defend them.

The four characters of stabilizing the hearts of the people were like a reassurance thrown into the throat of the emperor. Without hesitation, he immediately ordered Yan Guangyu to lead the army to the border to expel the foreign enemies.

On the day when Yan Guangyu was about to leave, he saw off his concubine, who was pregnant in July, on the long street. The two couples parted with tears, envious of others.

"Sister-in-law Sanhuang is pregnant, so you're going to see her off?" Du Mingqian was so shocked when he heard the news that he almost emptied his seat in the carriage, "Didn't you say that sister-in-law Sanhuang was born because of this... ..."

"I can't do anything!" Yan Shulou was very helpless, "Even if I am resurrected, I can't pry open his head and change his mind. I have already asked Fan Yi to stop him, but to no avail. My father and emperor are sick, so I don't care so much! It's not good for me to tell my sister-in-law that I can't go, otherwise my sister-in-law will misunderstand that I intend to harm her, and I will be in trouble. Fortunately, I notified Mo Ling in advance, so that he could not go in the palace. When my sister-in-law went out to see her off, she secretly took care of her, no, Mo Ling "just happened to pass by" at that time, saved Huang's sister-in-law, and her fetus was also safe and sound! Now she is probably staying at home, raising her baby with peace of mind!"

"If that's the case, that's really great," Du Mingqian smiled knowingly, tearing off Yan Shulou's raised face, "but the prince should not be too happy, wait for the birth of the emperor's wife to pass the dangerous period It's not too late to be happy."

"That's right," Yan Shulou pursed his lips in displeasure, tightened the fox fur for Du Mingqian, stuffed the stove in his hand into his arms, turned his head and looked out through the car curtain, they had already moved on Fangcheng was heading towards the address of Nanny Sun that he had found out, "Mingyu, I'm a little nervous." He suddenly held Du Mingqian's hand, his heart beating repeatedly, "I'm afraid that Nanny Sun is not here or if there is any eventuality, the concubine mother..."

"Oh, my lord, look, what's that outside?"

Looking along Du Mingqian's fingers, he saw that there was an alley outside, and there was no one in the alley.

"Mingyu, what do you want me to see?"

"Look at a fool..." Du Mingqian pinched Yan Shulou's buttocks, and kissed his lips while he exclaimed, "See how many times you will be fooled by me."

The gentle kiss is like a stream of pure water flowing into the restless heart, and the heart inexplicably settles down.

When Yan Shulou was released, the carriage stopped just in time. Du Mingqian rubbed Yan Shulou's flushed face, pulled him out of the carriage, looked around, and saw that the carriage happened to stop at the side of the alley that he just passed by. Just a glimpse of the house at the end of the alley.

"Master, at the west end of the alley is where Nanny Sun lives."

Du Mingqian nodded, and pulled Yan Shulou, who was trembling with excitement, inside: "Let's go, we have to face it."

Yan Shulou inserted his fingers along the gap between his fingers, making the two palms touch each other: "Let's go."

However, when the two walked into the alley, Fang found that the house Yan Xin pointed to was already empty. Day, no one came and went.

The two of them felt as if they were placed in an ice cellar, and the cold ice spread to the limbs and bones along the tip of their toes...

Yan Shulou refused to give up, knocked on the door again, and shouted Nanny Sun's name, but unfortunately, the voice went straight into the room, and no one responded.

"Are you... are you looking for Big Sister Sun?" When he was disheartened, the door of the next room creaked open, and a middle-aged woman poked her head out.

Yan Shulou's eyes suddenly lit up, and he stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Yes, this eldest sister, have you ever seen her before?"

"She," the woman sighed, "about a month ago, she left. For some reason, she left so suddenly that many things were not able to be moved."

"Going away suddenly?" Yan Shulou was shocked, looked at Du Mingqian, and asked, "Then do you know where she went?"

The woman shook her head: "I don't know, I walked in a hurry, and I didn't say hello to our neighbors in the neighborhood. I guess I have already left the city."

Yan Shulou nodded and thanked the woman, pulled Du Mingqian and left.

"Chuheng, don't you ask any more questions?"

"No need, I can't get anything out of asking. Grandma Sun's family died in the early years, and she was the only one left. I think, given her life experience without relatives and no reason, she shouldn't go out of the city. I guess she sensed me. People are looking for her, so I moved away to avoid the limelight."

"Well, I guess it's the same. I left in a hurry without taking my things with me. There's no reason to move out of town. So where are we going now?"

"I don't know," she couldn't find anyone, Yan Shulou lost all energy and her shoulders collapsed, "If she wants to hide, she will definitely live in a remote place... Forget it, you and I will go back to my grandfather's house in a while, Send someone to check."

"Huh?" Du Mingqian only had a doubt, and then suddenly realized that Concubine Xian's natal family is in Fangcheng.

"It's a pity that my grandmother passed away early. Without my grandmother's company, my grandfather has been stationed in the military camp all year round. He never came back, and there are only a few servants at home." Yan Shulou pulled Du Mingqian into the carriage and informed Yan Xin of his grandfather's family. address, and drove over there.

Because he came to Fangcheng secretly, Yan Shulou did not dare to say anything. When he arrived at his grandfather's house, he asked Yan Xin to communicate with the gate guards with his token and let him go in to report. After a while, the old steward went out of the house and welcomed them in.

Yan Shulou grew up in the palace since he was a child, and he can count the number of times he came to his grandfather's house on his fingers, so he is not close to the people here, but he is a prince after all, and he asked the people in the house to find his grandson for him. Mammy, no one dares to complain.The old steward didn't say anything, and immediately sent capable people in the house to help him find out the news, and served him with good wine and food, and let him stay at the house to wait for the good news.

Fangcheng is very large, and looking for a person whose whereabouts are unknown is like looking for a needle in a haystack. After waiting for a few days without any news, Yan Shulou walked up and down the room, sometimes feeling uncomfortable, and would slap the wall to vent his anger.Obviously the truth is right in front of your eyes, but watching it disappear before your eyes, this feeling is not good.

Du Mingqian didn't want Yan Shulou to be so troubled anymore, the weather was good and the sun was just right, so he took Yan Shulou to the street.

"Chuheng, I have worn out your hairpin, let's go buy a new one."

"En." Responding listlessly, Yan Shulou let Du Mingqian go to a jewelry store half-armed and half-dragged.

The store is full of jewelry, and there are too many hairpins for men alone. Du Mingqian happily asked the shopkeeper to bring out many hairpins, looked at them in his hand, and put them on Yan Shulou's hair for comparison. After careful selection for a long time, Fang picked out a few that matched Yan Shu Tower.

"Chuheng, take a look, which one do you like?"

Yan Shulou raised his dull eyelids and took a look: "As long as you look good!"

"Then this is it." Picking up one of the jade hairpins, after Yan Xin paid the bill, Du Mingqian smiled and took off Yan Shulou's hairpin, gathered his broken hair with his hands, and inserted the jade hairpin.Pushing him in front of the mirror, he poked his twisted face like a bitter gourd and said, "Look, it looks good."

Yan Shulou blinked and took a look, and had to say that the jade hairpin Du Mingqian picked was really top-grade. Although it was a bit violent for his current face, it matched his face shape very well.He turned around and kissed Du Mingqian, his voice was so loud that the store didn't dare to look directly at him: "It's beautiful, everything you gave is beautiful, I like it!"

"Then don't worry about it. If you worry about it again and put on a bitter face, I won't see you off."

Yan Shulou hurriedly touched his hairpin, stepped back a few steps, and looked at Du Mingqian warily as if protecting something: "If something is worn on my head, it is mine. You are not allowed to snatch it!"

"I won't grab it," Du Mingqian smoothed his frown, "as long as you don't make a bitter face."

"Then I won't suffer anymore," Yan Shulou grinned his white teeth, making this ugly face look extremely hideous, "Look, I smiled!"

Du Mingqian smiled knowingly, and evened out his ugly smile: "If you are troubled any more, I will take back the hairpin."

Yan Shulou grabbed Du Mingqian's hand and gnawed it, and in his resentful eyes, wiped off the saliva on his hand with a smile: "I don't worry anymore, the world is all about fate, if there is fate, we will definitely find her." .”

"It's good that you understand, let's go."

Holding Yan Shulou's hand, Du Mingqian made a gesture to leave. Unexpectedly, because he turned around too quickly, he bumped into an old lady who was hurrying in.
