When he Yan came back to the house, the light was still on. Two girls lie on the side of the outer room and play with the rope. Seeing he Yan, they turn over and stand up and say, "madam."

He Yan said in a low voice: "it's OK. You can sleep. I went into the room to have a rest. Is the young master asleep

Cui Jiao shakes her head: "young master has been reading books."

He Yan nodded, "I know, you have a rest earlier."

She pushed the door into the inner room and saw Xiao Jue sitting in front of the table in the inner room, looking through the long scroll in her hand. He only wore a middle coat. The snow-white one was loosely draped on his shoulder, revealing jade like skin. His clavicle was thin and bright like the moon.

He Yan closed the door and walked to him, saying, "governor?"

Xiao Jue only lifted her eyes and looked at her faintly, but did not speak.

"I thought you were asleep." He Yan untied the whip from his waist and hung it on the wall. The colored spike hanging on the handle of the whip swayed like a glow with her movements, and a red ruby pomegranate flower was even more wonderful and eye-catching. Xiao Jue's eyes fell on the colored ear.

He Yan saw that he was looking, so he took the whip down and handed it to Xiao Jue's hands: "how about it? Do you look good, governor? This is from the fourth master of Chu. "

"Chu Zilan is really generous," Xiao Jue closed her eyes and said quietly, "it's not too wasteful to send you such a valuable thing."

"Valuable?" He Yanqi said: "the fourth master of Chu said that this pomegranate flower is a fake jade, which is not worth a few dollars. I took it when he said that. "

"Oh," he scoffed, "he's very considerate."

"Is it so valuable?" He Yan some uneasy, "then I still give him back tomorrow." If there is anything that can't be pulled clean in the future, it's better to distinguish between money and money.

Xiao Jue: take it. Don't you like him very much

He Yan was shocked: "do I like him?" How could she not know!

"I didn't want to take care of your business, but I still want to remind you," the young man's eyebrows and eyes were ugly under the light, and their eyes were dark and deep, with some inexplicable coldness. "Chu Zilan is Xu Jingfu's favorite son-in-law. If you don't want to die, stay away from him."

Xu pingting is the apple of Xu Jingfu's eye. She seems to like Chu Zilan. Lin Shuanghe has told her about this, but what does it have to do with herself? Not to mention whether she likes Chu Zhao, who is so polite and polite, she can't see a woman who can sit cross legged and punch on the bed.

Xiao Jue is really worrying.

"Governor, I think you are too nervous about the fourth master of Chu. You even have prejudice against me." She squeezed to Xiao Jue and bent down to see the long scroll in Xiao Jue's hand: "what are you looking at so late?"

Xiao Jue ignored her. He Yan stood behind him and craned his neck to see it. After a moment, he said, "it's a military defense map! Well, do you see any problems? "

"The tone of your voice," Xiao Jue said calmly, "it seems that you are the governor."

He Yan immediately took back the hand on his shoulder, moved a stool and sat beside him, saying, "I just care too much. It should be known to those utoes that Meng Jiwang's daughter transferred to the people in Jiyang these days. Those utoes, when they get the news, will soon start fighting. " He Yan was in a headache, "but there are too few soldiers in Jiyang city. Since the uto people dare to attack the city, they will not bring less than 100000 soldiers."

However, the situation is not very gratifying.

"You were not a female general in your last life," Xiao Jue leaned back on the back of her chair and pulled the corners of her mouth. "Tell me what to do."

He Yan was stunned for a moment. What is this called? He said the truth clearly, but he was treated as a lie.

"In the military defense map, they come from the water." He Yan said: "in this case, only The water is attacking. "

Speaking of this, she carefully raised her eyes to see Xiao Jue's expression. The youth's expression was as plain as ever. The drinking sword on the wall was as crystal as snow and cold as ice.

Strange to say, she and Xiao Jue, a former life and death in the water, to the water, the bottom of my heart always take a bit of shadow. Another first battle was the water fight. For him, water attack was not a good memory. However, in Jiyang City, it is impossible to avoid such a scene in any case.

He Yan all doubted that she and Xiao Jue were some fire spirits in the last life, and had such a bad relationship with water.

"I'll go to the martial arts training ground early tomorrow morning," Xiao Jue said, "you too."

"Me?" He Yan hesitated for a moment, "I really want to go, but can Meng Ji Wang's daughter not be very happy?"

In name, Xiao Jue was the commander of the right army of the great Wei Dynasty. No one could train and prepare for war better than him, but he Yan was only Xiao Jue's subordinate.

"Don't worry about her." Xiao Jue said, "you go with me."

……

It's late at night.

The man sat in front of the room, quietly looking at the flower basket on the table.

Under the warm light of the oil lamp, the sugar painting is bright red and crystal clear. The flowers in the flower basket are flourishing. In front of the flower basket, there are two words: Zi Lan. Right and beautiful.There seems to be a smile in my ear.

"Zhao means light, and Zi Lan means vanilla. The person who takes this name for you must love you very much. I hope that your conduct will be noble and your future will be bright, so that you can choose such elegant words. "

The person who named him must love him very much?

Chu Zhao never thought so.

His mother's name is ye Runmei, the daughter of a small official family in Qinxian county. She is extremely beautiful and can be compared with a celestial being. In his memory, it was an impeccable woman with both eyebrows and eyes. She was beautiful, charming and pitiful. In her delicate posture, she also had a bit of innocence and innocence.

Such a beauty will never be forgotten at a glance. How many men in Qinxian hope to marry ye Runmei, but ye Runmei, on the other hand, takes a fancy to the man who came to Qinxian to do business, the same beautiful and outstanding Shi Jinbo, Chu Linfeng.

Although he was in shuojing, Chu Linfeng was also a rare beautiful man. In addition, he is generous and has been struggling in the pile of powder for so many years. He knows how to please people. Before long, ye Runmei was affectionate and considerate to the young master of Chu.

Not only do you want to spend the night together.

But only three months later, Chu Linfeng will leave Qinxian county and return to shuojing. Before leaving, Chu Linfeng told ye Runmei that he would come back to marry her. At that time, Ye was immersed in the dream of waiting for her sweetheart to marry her. She did not realize that she knew nothing about Chu Linfeng except that she knew her name and lived in shuojing.

As soon as Chu Linfeng left, there was no news.

Soon after he left, ye found herself pregnant.

She was too anxious and afraid to say anything to anyone. But the stomach grows bigger and bigger day by day, after all, it can't be concealed. Master Ye was furious and asked ye Runmei who the father of his child was. Ye Runmei did not know the real identity of the other party. How could he make it clear, he just kept crying.

Finally, master ye had no choice but to hire a doctor. He planned to send ye Runmei's baby away. After a year and a half, he would send ye Runmei to marry. This matter will be rotten in his stomach all his life, and no one will say anything about it.

Ye Runmei knew her father's plan and ran away overnight.

She did not want to fall this child, I do not know whether it is out of nostalgia for Chu Linfeng, or because of something else. Anyway, she ran away.

Ye Runmei decided to go to shuojing to find Chu Linfeng.

How could she, a woman with a big belly, walk so far. But because of her beauty, she met a merchant along the way. She offered to help her and promised to take her to shuojing.

Before arriving in shuojing, ye Runmei gave birth, and Chu Zhao was born at this time. After Chu Zhao was born, ye Runmei's miserable life had just begun.

The merchant was not a kind-hearted man. He took a fancy to ye Runmei's beauty and hoped that ye Runmei would be his concubine. Ye Runmei resisted death and scratched the merchant. In a fury, the merchant sold ye Runmei into the brothel at the price of ten Liang silver.

Chu Zhao was also sold, because the mother of the brothel thought that if ye Runmei was born so outspoken, her son should not be bad. In the future, he would be good-looking and could not earn another sum of money. If you don't look good, you can be a slave.

Ye Runmei and Chu Zhao live together in the brothel.

In the past ten years, the young lady, who had been so pampered that she did not know the dangers of the world, met all kinds of ugly and vicious people in the brothel. It seemed that she was going to take back all her past favorable conditions. Ye Runmei's life was not as good as death. Long term torture changed her temperament. She began to be irritable and irritable. She did not dare to make mistakes in front of benefactors. She vented her inner resentment at Chu Zhao, but ignored her. She often beat Chu Zhao severely. If it was not for the protection of other women in the brothel, Chu Zhao thought that she might not live to see Chu Linfeng.

Chu Zhao didn't understand what ye Runmei felt for himself. If she said she didn't love, she left home alone and went into exile in order to protect her bones and flesh. She did not give up on him. If you say love, why does she often take those stinging words? He has hatred in the corner of his eyes and eyebrows.

She always hit him with a bamboo pole and said, "I hate you! If not you, if not you, my life should not be like this! Why don't you show up and die

After the vicious curse, she looks at the scar on Chu Zhao's body and hugs him to shed tears: "I'm sorry, Niang, I'm sorry for you. A Zhao, Zi Lan, don't blame your mother. She loves you..."

Young he is very confused, love or do not love, he does not understand. Just looking at the sad and crying woman, a trace of disgust flitted through my heart.

He hoped that such days would come to an end earlier, that he would grow up quickly and escape from this dirty and hopeless place.

Ye Runmei is also looking for opportunities.

She has never given up to find Chu Linfeng. She curses Chu Linfeng's ruthlessness and hopes for him at the same time. She always looks at Chu Zhao, as if looking at all the hopes. Maybe she left Chu Zhao to stand in front of him one day when she saw Chu Linfeng again and told him: This is your son. Let's go through all the hardships over the years. Chu Linfeng will love her, as he said to her at that time, will marry her and make up for their mother and son's debt in these years.Ye Runmei thinks so, so she always takes the initiative to entertain every guest from shuojing. She's so beautiful that she easily becomes the number one in the brothel. Although she was not in shuojing, there were always people from shuojing who came to visit shuojing. One day, she was told to wait for someone who knew Chu Linfeng.

The man was a friend of Chu Linfeng. At the beginning, when ye Runmei told us about his sad past, he only had to have a good time, sometimes with a few words of comfort, to satisfy his Savior's kindness. But when he heard that the man was called Chu Linfeng. He was handsome and beautiful, and he was from shuojing, his face changed gradually.

People who know Chu Linfeng know that he lingers in the flowers, especially lecherous. It is not impossible to go out and hook up with women from small families. However, it is not authentic enough to do this thing. At any rate, it also tells the truth, which makes people stop thinking. It is not necessary to keep people in the same place and wait for many years. On the contrary, it has become a bad fate.

"My poor child I don't know if I have a chance to see his father in this life Ye Runmei hid her face and wept.

"And children?" The friend was surprised and asked, "can I see you?"

Ye Runmei asked Chu Zhao to come out.

Chu Zhao's nose and mouth are like ye Runmei, but they are printed in the same mold as Chu Linfeng. They are gentle and affectionate. When they look at people, they always seem to have a soft smile. If this face is the son of Chu Linfeng, no one will doubt it.

The friend got up, perfunctory a few words, hurried out of the door.

Ye Runmei was very disappointed.

When his friend returned to shuojing, the first thing he did was to go to Shi Jinbo's house to find Chu Linfeng and ask him if he had a dew relationship with a beauty years ago in Qinxian county. Chu Linfeng thought for a long time, and finally vaguely recalled a little impression. Vaguely, he remembered that he was a very delicate woman. Unfortunately, he was stupid and believed in what he said.

"The woman is now living in the brothel," said her friend, "and she gave birth to a son for you. I have seen that child, which is very similar to yours. It is very beautiful."

This is beyond Chu Linfeng's expectation.

Mrs. Chu was ugly and salt free. She never cared about his affairs outside. She was so happy that she carried nineteen concubines to her house. All of them were beautiful. Unfortunately, Mrs. Chu has only one condition. Concubines can be taken. Children can only crawl out of her belly.

Chu Fu had three children, and Chu Linfeng didn't have much interest in this kind of thing, so he thought it was enough. The only regret is that none of his three sons inherited his appearance. He knew that his colleagues and friends were laughing at him behind his back. He was greedy for good colors all his life. Unfortunately, his offspring were mediocre and boring, not moving enough.

Now someone came to tell him that he had a son who had been left behind. He was born out of the blue, and was very similar to him? This, to him, is a good thing. For a moment, he wanted to let the child recognize his ancestors. In this way, others said that he could not produce a good-looking son in Chu Linfeng, so he could beat them in the face.

But Chu Linfeng and his wife for many years, although Mrs. Chu seems dignified atmosphere, but is not easy to provoke. Otherwise, the concubines in the Chu mansion would not have a son. Chu Linfeng had no choice but to ask the old lady, his mother.

Although Mrs. Chu didn't pay much attention to the common people, it was the blood of the Chu family. It was not good to live outside. Besides, it was still a brothel like place. So she went to see Mrs. Chu in person. Mrs. Chu and the old lady talked for an hour in the room. When she left the mansion, Mrs. Chu personally ordered people to go to the Bazhou brothel and pick up the son of a commoner.

But the common son did not mention ye Runmei.

Although Shi Jinbo is not alone in the capital, he is also a high-ranking official, and even more unattainable to the people in Dazhou. When the letter flew from shuojing to Dazhou, ye Runmei could hardly believe her eyes.

She knew that Chu Linfeng should not be an ordinary person. She was so generous. She was very different from those men in Qinxian county. She wanted to come to her family. But I didn't expect that he was Shi Jinbo today. It's the one she never wanted to think about.

It seems that after years of painstaking planning, at this moment, she finally harvested the sweet fruit. She hugged Chu Zhao and cried with joy, "Zilan, your father has come to pick us up. We can go home..."

Chu Zhao quietly allows the woman's excited tears to fall on her neck. Her young face is not in line with her age.

Go home? Who can be sure it's just jumping from one pit to another?

After all, all the men he saw in the brothel were greedy and vicious, and the women were stupid and weak. There is no difference.

But ye Runmei didn't think so. She spent all her savings and bought a lot of beautiful clothes and jewelry. She dressed Chu Zhao like a little childe of a rich family and dressed herself up as a flower. She looked at the woman in the mirror. The woman was still beautiful, but her skin was not as smooth as when she was young. In my eyes, I'm innocent, and I don't have to show my beauty.

She shed tears, the spring is the same, but the beauty is late.

The husband who promised to marry her has not come yet.

Ye Runmei thinks that Chu Linfeng, who is Shi Jinbo, will not marry her, but she can be carried as a concubine. Her son is also the son of Shi Jinbo. She is in the brothel to look at people's faces, these years have been too hard. It's more noble to be a concubine than to be a prostitute here.She wants to dress up very moving, to see Chu Linfeng, how to plainly explain how she has suffered for him over the years, and to tell him her determination of love. Ye Runmei thinks that if a man in the world hears that a beauty is infatuated with himself, he will surely feel proud. This kind of pride will make him cherish the beauty more and show his heroic love.

She will not miss this opportunity, she wants to regain Chu Linfeng's favor, even if it is his concubine, which attracts him most.

But ye Runmei did not expect that Chu Linfeng did not come.

There were two women and a group of maids. They looked down at ye Runmei with contempt in their eyes. It seemed that one more look would stain their eyes.

The first lady asked, "where is the master of Chu?"

Ye Runmei felt humiliated and wanted to get angry, but in the end, she put on a humble smile. "In Change clothes in the next room. " She told Chu Zhao in advance to let him put in the jade hairpin, which was elegant and lovely.

"Just right." The old lady drooped her eyes and said with a smile.

A little uneasiness flashed in ye Runmei's heart. She asked, "what do you want to do?"

A woman came and pulled her hand back. Another maid covered her mouth with a handkerchief. Ye Runmei's eyes widened and she realized what they were going to do to her. She struggled desperately and said, "how dare you How dare you! You're not afraid of Chu Lang, you know? Chu Lang will kill you

The woman looked at her coldly, and her smile was bitter. "How dare the maids decide such a big thing without the master's permission. Miss Mei - "she called Ye Runmei's name in the brothel." will we take in a prostitute in the brothel with thousands of people riding thousands of pillows in the brothel? Do you want people to laugh at your master or your son? "

Ye Runmei struggled desperately, but she was thin and weak, where was the opponent of people, and gradually lost strength.

"It's a gift for you to go to your mother and leave your son."

Ye Runmei's legs gradually couldn't move. She fell straight to the ground with her eyes wide open.

She waited for her husband all her life, full of joy that she had boiled her head, but she had to wait for her own death.

Chu Zhao inserted the hairpin on his head and looked around in front of the mirror for a long time. Then he walked to his mother's house with a regular step. When he wanted to knock on the door, he held out his hand, hesitated for a moment and pushed a small slit gently to see what the "father" looked like.

Then he saw that two women were carrying ye Runmei, such as a dead pig. They hung a white silk on the beam of the Fang Fang and put ye Runmei's head inside. Ye Runmei's face was facing the door, and her eyes met him.

Surrounded by pearls, beautiful snow and red makeup, she cherishes hatred for the past and never closes her eyes.

He staggered and covered his mouth to keep himself from screaming.

The people in the room are still talking.

"Beautiful is beautiful. How could you be so stupid as to expect to enter the mansion? I don't want to think about which big family's family can take the people from the brothel as concubines. "

"After all, he was born in a small family. He didn't know what it was to leave his mother with his son. If I had stayed in Qinxian, I would not have lost my life. "

"Well, it's not greed."

Chu Zhao retreated slowly and slowly. When he was far enough away from the door, he ran to the house of an unknown family. He closed the door tightly, clenched his teeth, and wept silently.

It seems that a woman's voice fell on his ear, with rare tenderness.

"The clothes of China are like English, and the clothes are rotten. You'll be called a Zhao. One day, we a Zhao will be able to wear gorgeous clothes just like the cloud God, with beautiful appearance and boundless splendor. "

"The word is Zi Lan. Orchid Yi Yi Yi, spread its fragrance. Mother, I used to like orchids best

He muddled, flattering way: "after a Zhao to mother to buy a lot of orchids."

The woman's laughter faded away, and his eyes fell on the flower basket in front of him.

The fire was slightly hot, and Chu Zhao stopped for a moment and threw the flower basket on the table into it. The fire licked the basket, but for a moment, the syrup flowed everywhere with a burning sweetness.

He walked away without any expression.
