Chapter 107 Half a lifetime is not easy, live well

The whereabouts of Baihua were kept being investigated by the Winter Solstice, but the information she could tracked in the end was that she followed the caravan into Guanzhong. She should have been sold to a wealthy business or official in Xiliang as a southern girl who was equivalent to cattle and sheep. Unfortunately, she had just entered the country and was robbed by bandits. No one could tell where Baihua was gone.

I want to see people in my life, and I want to see corpses in my life,

The winter solstice has not given up.

However, after the establishment of the Secret Palace, there were too many things in all aspects, mainly dealing with the domestic and Northern Wei, and the radiation range of Xiliang was not enough. It happened that this Western Expedition would infiltrate Guanzhong, and the plan to find a hundred paintings was put on the agenda again. But what disappointed the Winter Solstice was that to this day, there was nothing to be found.

"You know the hundred paintings?"

Wen Ziyou smiled and said, "Sure enough, the general has feelings and righteousness. A humble maid who made a mistake and was expelled from the mansion. After ten years of his life, he still remembers her name."

"Where is she?"

When Yuehen walked into the lobby, he gave Xu You the feeling of being like a ghost walking out of the underworld. There was no human energy or the smell of fireworks. He took off the curtain fence and held it with one hand. His steps were light but steady. He was wearing the most common green military uniform in Xiliang. There was a deep and narrow knife mark on his left cheek, and his eyes were a bit hesitant with a timid feeling. She bent down and bowed and said, "My little girl has seen the general!"

Xu You reached out to stop her, held her arm and pulled her up, looked at her carefully for a moment, and said softly: "How is he good to you?"

I didn't ask how these years have come, nor did I ask whether these years have been successful. I was born in a chaotic world, and even he himself died many times, let alone a weak woman without any power? Born as a human being, hardship, hardship, torture and ups and downs are nothing. At least, living is the greatest luck, isn't it?

Yuehen lowered his head and said, "It's pretty good..."

No more details.

Time can change a lot, appearance, experience, thoughts, and naturally include each other's emotions. Xu You thought for a while and asked again: "Where are you going to leave Chang'an?"

"I haven't decided yet, let's take a look around. Maybe when I go to a place and like the mountains and rivers and people there, I stayed."

"This place of peace of mind is my hometown. If you can do this, it may be that your practice will be complete." Life is a practice. Some people cultivate greed, anger, ignorance, some people cultivate suffering, happiness, joy, sorrow, and joy, some people cultivate wine, sex, money, some people cultivate everything, and some people cultivate back to nature.

What is returning to nature?

The world is prosperous, it’s better to go back!

Xu You paused and said, "By the way, your mother's tomb is built in a field not far from your home. I asked the village to take care of it. Every sacrificial day, there are incense and offerings, and they are cleaned up from time to time. If you pass by Qiantang, you can go and kowtow."

"Um!"

"Your brother and sister-in-law did something wrong. I originally wanted to keep them in prison and wait for you to deal with it before you go back. However, in the White Thieves' Rebellion, Qiantang fell, and your brother and sister-in-law also died in the chaos, and the bones remained..."

"Um!"

After explaining these, there seemed to be nothing to say. Xu You knew that the fate of both parties had ended and forced to stay was useless. Finally, he asked: "Is there any other difficulty in leaving Chang'an? Is there enough money?"

"The salary of our two people over the years has various rewards, which is enough to be used for the rest of their lives. Others... should be no difficulty."

"That's good!" Xu You smiled, trying to reach out to rub Yuehen's hair, but he lifted it up and put it down, and said, "When will I go and see you off?"

Wen Ziyou said next to him: "I drank a farewell wine with a few old friends tonight and left early tomorrow morning. I dare not bother General Yuzhi. However, Chang'an and surrounding counties are still under control. Can you ask the general to give us a handwritten order so that we can travel without any obstacles?"

"So anxious?" Xu You said: "The Winter Solstice is not in the city at this moment, and she will be back in two days. She has always cared about you the most. Will you never see you?"

Yuehen was silent, shook her head, and said, "It's gone... It's better to see each other if we don't meet, she'll be safe!"

"Well!"

Xu You wrote a handwritten order, stamped the general's seal, handed it to Yuehen, stood face to face, finally raised his hand, rubbed her hair, and whispered: "Half a lifetime is not easy, live well in the future!"

After leaving the General's Mansion, Wen Ziyou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, you are here, otherwise General Xu would not have let me escape so easily, let alone seek this amulet."

Yuehen turned his head and seemed to be able to see Xu You standing outside the hall watching them leave. He was the general of Chu State, with hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and generals under his command. It can be said that he was the only one in Xiliang. However, such a tall and noble figure, facing her, the little maid who fell into the dust, was still as gentle and friendly as she was when she first met.

Wen Ziyou held her hand tightly and said, "When I finish the last thing, I will take you away from these dirty and disgusting battles, find a place where no one knows, and spend the rest of my life peacefully."

Bite her lips, silent tears fell like rain.

Half of my life is not easy, I hope my husband will be in control of the situation from now on, and everything will be better!

Hundred paintings...don't pass!

Zhangye Duke Mansion is located on the west side of Mingguang Palace, close to Huayang Street, and is the residential area of ​​the nobles. Although Juqu Wugu did not stay in Chang'an forever, Yao Ji still rewarded him with this house to demonstrate his outstanding contributions in the war to expel Yao Jin.

When Wen Ziyou came to the door, the moon was hanging in the sky and frogs croaked in pieces. The nights in midsummer were always so attractive. Juquwu and his subordinates were drinking in the yard. They didn't have time to put on their shoes and said happily: "The military advisor came just right. The general admired the snow mud wine. It was really a rare beauty in the world. Come and try it!"

Wen Ziyou smiled and said, "The military advisor general is the matter of the previous dynasty. The King of Liangzhou is not called the wrong one, and it causes unnecessary trouble for me..."

"I'm afraid of a bird? With Ziyou's talent, when the imperial court rewards, it's not just the military advisor general? General Guards and General Cavalry! Who dares to cause trouble for you? I twisted his head and put on the wine!"

Although he was bold and unrestrained, he no longer called a military advisor, but called Ziyou. Juquwu was alone and had a great ability to change his mind and avoid risks.

"I dare not hide it from the King of Liangzhou. I have just formally proposed to the general to resign and retire. The general pleads with me. It is already approved and will leave Beijing tomorrow..."

"Hmm? Resigning from office?" Juqu Wugu was shocked and said, "The General is actually accurate?"

Wen Ziyou winked, Juquwu understood the truth, and hurriedly led him into the mansion, asking the details while walking, Wen Ziyou comforted: "The King of Liangzhou does not have to doubt. This is not the general's other thoughts about us surrendered ministers in Xiliang. It's just that Wen has always used tricks to serve the king and did too many evil things. Now he has no soldiers and power. If he stays in Chang'an for a long time, there may be an unexpected disaster. The King of Liangzhou is not like that. You have tens of thousands of powerful soldiers in your hands, and Anding County is the foundation of Lu Shuihu. Even if you have all the birds and bows, it is not the turn of Liangzhou to be killed. Please feel at ease!"

Juquwu was suspicious by nature, but it was fine if Wen Ziyou didn't relieve him. This comfort immediately made me think: Wen Ziyou was very wise and good at planning, and the people of Xiliang were respectful and fearful, and even he wanted to escape from Chang'an. It was obvious that this place was really dangerous, so I still asked Xu You for the title and seal of the King of Liangzhou as soon as possible and returned to Anding County as the best.

"I understand! Since Ziyou is leaving, I can't keep it. I will practice it for Ziyou tonight. We will not return until we get drunk." Juqu Wugu was very enthusiastic and planned to make confusing words from Wen Ziyou. He felt really uneasy without thinking about Xu You's thoughts.

Wen Ziyou clicked until he saw Juqu Wugu's expression, and he knew that he had been hooked. He was not afraid of you thinking about many things, but afraid that you wouldn't think about it. If you think too much, you would be wrong. He smiled and said, "Okay!"

When they entered the mansion, everyone gathered around the table to drink and talked about the joy. Wen Ziyou was so happy. When talking about the past military years, they all scratched the itchy place of Juqu Wugu. They drank more than a dozen jars of wine. After Xu Youshang's snow mud wine, they also served the Liangzhou spring wine unique to Xiliang. Don't listen to the name Yayun, it is actually easy to get involved.

When they were drunk this time, the other generals fell down. Juquwugu's tongue was stiff and his face was flushed, but he still raised his glasses to persuade him to drink. Wen Ziyou looked almost drunk and crazy, and hit the wine glass with chopsticks, opened his voice and sang the tragic and vast folk song of Xiliang. Juquwugu was moved and got up and danced with swords.

At the end of the song, the two laughed at each other. Wen Ziyou suddenly burst into tears and said, "Let's travel far tomorrow, please send me my personal belongings so that I can see things and think of others. If I feel very quiet in the future, I should go to the peace and calm to find the King of Liangzhou to reminisce about the past!"

Juqu Wugu pulled out the extremely precious jade purple-gold short knife on his waist. The wine gushed up, his body swayed, and his words were gone, and he said, "I admire Ziyou for many years. If I no longer have leisurely fun in the mountains and fields in the future, please be sure to come and meet! You and I are both in the Xiliang lineage. If we don't support each other, we won't let the southerners laugh at you?"

Before, he did not dare to conquer Wen Ziyou because the status of the two was not much different, and he knew that people were going to a higher place, so he did not dare to compete with Xu You. But now that Wen Ziyou was leaving, Xu You also let go. Everyone was both old ministers in Xiliang and naturally got close to him, so he wanted to take it for himself.

Although Lu Shui and Hu are good at fighting, they are not good at planning. If Wen Ziyou can help and the civil and military are combined, they will be like a tiger who can maintain stability and protect themselves, and they can also look at Hexi, expand territory, and strengthen their strength to plan for the future.

Juqu Wugu gave him his favorite jade knife. Although he was using nine points of alcohol to drink and did not have the self-control of his usual self-control, he also expressed his intention to recruit him in a vague way.

Wen Ziyou's drunken eyes were hazy, and he reached out to take it, gently stroked the back of the knife, and said, "I feel like a face of the knife, so I can comfort this heart!"

When he left, he cherished each other and refused to leave. He finally arrived at the corner of the street where he could not see him. Yuehen, who had been waiting beside him, led two horses and said, "Is it done?"

Wen Ziyou showed off his jasper purple-gold sword, his eyes were as cool as the bright moon, and there was no trace of alcohol. He smiled and said, "It's hard to get it, but finally he tricked the vital token from the old fox of Juqu."

"What should we do next?"

"Are you ready for the fine and soft?"

Yuehen patted the two large packages held by the horse's butt, which were full of gold, silver, pearls and jade, and were worthless. Even if they were squandering, it would be enough for their rest of their lives.

Wen Ziyou turned over and said, "Get out of the city immediately! The night is long and dreams are too long, so that the old guy will not wake up tomorrow and come and ask for this knife again."

Yuehen nodded, stepped on the stirrups, and landed lightly in the saddle.

Wen Ziyou turned around and stared at Chang'an City in the night again. He resolutely clamped his horse's belly and said, "Let's go to An Ding, and you'll be back in the Juqu!"
