epilogue (1)
Ending (1)
Outside Luoyang City, Luoshui Pavilion.
Early in the morning, snowflakes floated from the sky, which was the biggest snow since the beginning of winter. The Luo River was frozen, and the river bank was covered with thick white snow, and the sky and the earth were covered with white.
In the Luoshui Pavilion, Chen Huai has been waiting here since the morning, constantly raising his eyes to the official road. Finally, a small horse came from the official road with sparse pedestrians. Chen Huai recognized Li Yuanfang, who was wearing black clothes, and Di Jinghui, who was walking in front of him. Although his hands were tied up, his head was raised and his chest was raised. He also took big steps. There were two servants beside them. Each of them had his face red from the cold and his head was covered with snowflakes.
Chen Huai shouted loudly: "Brother Yuanfang! Brother Jinghui!" He ran out of Luoshui Pavilion and ran to Guandao towards them. When Li Yuanfang saw Chen Huai, he immediately jumped off his horse and walked quickly towards Chen Huai in the snow. When he walked to the opposite side, the two clasped each other and smiled.
Chen Huai said excitedly: "Brother Yuanfang, I have been here since the morning, and I want to see you and Brother Jinghui see you. Finally, it's not in vain." Li Yuanfang gasped slightly and smiled: "It's such a cold day, you're here to see us, it's really a pity." Chen Huai looked behind Li Yuanfang, and Di Jinghui stood proudly. He didn't look like a prisoner being taken to the river, but more like an official coming to patrol. He couldn't help but smile and walked forward and said, "Brother Jinghui, I'll see you off." Di Jinghui nodded and said, "Ah Thank you for your kindness. I'm very good." Chen Huai was a little laughed when he heard his inappropriate words. He looked back at Li Yuanfang and said, "Brother Yuanfang, it's snowing. The road will be harder and harder to walk along the northwest, and the climate will become worse and worse. You really need to take care of it." Li Yuanfang smiled faintly: "Brother Chen, I came from the northwest, but I'm used to that kind of life. It's nothing big. It's him..." He glanced at Di Jinghui and squeezed his eyes at Chen Huai: "I'm afraid I'll suffer a little."
Chen Huai smiled knowingly, and the two walked into Luoshui Pavilion hand in hand. Chen Huai sighed, "It's a good thing that you two are walking together and have a look after each other, so Lord Di can relax a little." Li Yuanfang heard him mention Di Renjie's expression changed slightly. He pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Chen, defending the country and guarding the border is my always wish. Today it finally came true. The only person in his heart can't let go is Lord Chen. Brother Chen, now you are Lord Guard Captain. From now on, the safety of the Lord will be placed on you. Brother Chen, if you can keep your peace, you will be a great kindness to Brother Yu. Brother Yu, thank you for Brother Chen!" As he said that, he lifted up his clothes, put on one knee, and gave a big gift to Chen Huai. Chen Huai was shocked and quickly pulled Li Yuanfang up, but he didn't know what to say for a moment. Li Yuanfang took off the Youlan Sword from his waist, gently stroked the scabbard, and picked up the treasure Jian, staring at Chen Huai, and said solemnly: "Brother Chen, this orchid sword was given to me by the Lord ten years ago when I first arrived at the adults. Now that I have left, I would like to ask Brother Chen to do my best and return the sword to me." Seeing Chen Huai hesitating, Li Yuanfang smiled and said, "Brother Chen, I should have returned the sword to the Lord with my own hands. But I know that if that is the case, the Lord will refuse to accept it, and it will be better to avoid it. Sad. So, I thought you would bring the sword to the master. I thought you would definitely come to give us today." He handed the Youlan Sword forward and said softly: "Brother Chen, please take it. This is a sword." Chen Huai then took the Youlan Sword with both hands and gently pulled the sword out. The cold air suddenly overshadowed the bitter north wind, and the sword body flashed with dazzling light. Chen Huai sighed: "What a rare good sword."
Suddenly, a child's call came from the cold wind: "Brother!" Everyone looked back and saw Di Chun driving the carriage to Luoshui Pavilion. As soon as the carriage stopped, Han Bin jumped and jumped towards Li Yuanfang, and threw himself into Li Yuanfang's arms. He kept shouting: "You can't drive me away now." Li Yuanfang squatted down and hugged Han Bin, and smiled and said, "Why are you here still? Is the Di Mansion not good?" "No, it's not good anywhere!" Han Bin kept shouting, holding Li Yuanfang's neck desperately. Li Yuanfang finally pushed him a little apart and asked: "Have you eaten breakfast? Are you still hungry?" Han Bin's eyes turned: "Is there something delicious?" Li Yuanfang smiled
Then he took out a paper bag from his arms: "Do you want to eat bean paste pie?" "I want to!" Han Bin raised a piece of bean paste pie and was about to send it to his mouth, but suddenly he shouted happily: "I understand, I understand, you miss me, you miss me!" Seeing that Li Yuanfang just smiled and refused to answer, Han Bin sent the bean paste pie to his mouth: "Brother, you eat it first." "I don't like this. You eat it." "No, I won't eat it if you don't eat it!" Li Yuanfang took a small bite helplessly, and then Han Bin started to eat it with satisfaction. Li Yuanfang stood up and saw Di Chun standing far away by the carriage, so he nodded to him. Di Chun also nodded to him, turned around and quietly wiped his tears.
"Okay, it's time for us to set off." Li Yuanfang said, carrying Han Bin on the back, then hugged Shen Huai again, fisted himself on the horse, turned his head, and the group returned to the official road and slowly moved forward along the snow-covered road. By the Luoshui Pavilion, Shen Huai and Di Chun looked at their backs for a long time until the snow covered everything in the sky.
