Although there is no Changbanpo escape in this world, Adou feels an inexplicable affinity for Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun's appearance has not changed even after several years of not seeing him. The children have grown a lot, and all of them have become more naughty older children. All of their small faces have grown, and Zhao Yun almost didn't recognize them.
Zhao Yun picked up the ball and asked Gao Shun curiously: "Could this be Cuju? But it doesn't look like it."
Adou smiled and said: "This is not Cuju, this thing is called football."
Zhao Yun didn't know what football was. He looked at Gao Shun and pointed at Adou and asked, "Is this the crown prince?"
Gao Shun nodded, "The prince has grown well these past two years and has already lost four teeth."
"Children grow up so fast." Zhao Yun sighed.
Adou asked: "Has my father returned to Jingzhou? Or has General Zilong been transferred back?"
"Your Majesty, my lord is in Chengdu and asked me to come and pick you up for a reunion." Zhao Yun clasped his fists in salute and couldn't help but sigh that Adou's personality was much more cheerful than before.
Zhao Yun vaguely remembered that when he was in Jiangling, Mrs. Gan and Adou lived in seclusion because of Sun Shangxiang's domineering attitude. Zhang Fei was worried that the child was too reserved, but he didn't expect such a big change in two years.
"Going to Chengdu? Mother hasn't told me yet..." Adou scratched his head in thought.
"You said you were going to Chengdu? Could it be a fake? There was a person who pretended to pass the general's orders before, but my mother and I teamed up to subdue him. Do you have any proof?" Lan Ji tilted his head and asked.
Zhao Yun really had no credentials, so he was startled when Lan Ji asked. .
Seeing this, Lan Yuan came over and whispered: "General Zilong, have you forgotten? We met in Jiangling two years ago."
Lan Ji argued seriously: "Father said that you should maintain a skeptical attitude when looking at problems."
The whispers of the two little ones did not escape the sensitive hearing of Gao Shun and Zhao Yun. Gao Shun smiled and said: "This child is the most naughty. I will take the general to see Mrs. Gan."
Lan Ji stretched out his hand to stop me, "You haven't answered my question yet."
"Master Ji really hasn't changed, he's just more naughty. What kind of proof do you need before you let him go?" Zhao Yun asked with a smile on his hips.
"General, do you have any tokens?" Lan Ji blinked his little eyes.
Zhao Yun thought about it carefully, then pulled out his sword from his waist: "This is my green and red sword. Your father knows it. Master Ji, do you recognize it?"
Lan Ji nodded, "I saw the general use it last time in Jiangling. My father said it was a sword that can cut iron as well as clay. If you don't use it, can you give it to me?"
Zhao Yun had a question mark on his face. This kid really dared to speak. The green and red sword might not leave his body until he dies.
"Go back to your room. You are rude to General Zhao. This is nonsense." Lu Lingqi appeared in the small courtyard with an angry face. She was very sensitive to the sound of a sword being unsheathed. She had been taking a nap in the room just now. , upon hearing Zhao Yun drawing his sword, he immediately rushed out.
"Mrs. Lu..." Zhao Yun cupped his fists and saluted.
"Please forgive me for being ignorant." Lu Lingqi nodded slightly.
"General Zilong is here?" Gan Qian heard the voices in the courtyard, put on her clothes and took a look, and found that it was Zhao Yun whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
"Madam, you are polite." Zhao Yun bowed again.
While several adults were chatting, Lan Yuan took Lan Ji and Adou and tiptoed into the east wing. Lan Ji might be punished by Lu Lingqi for being naughty just now, but with Gan Qian protecting him, he would usually be fine.
Gan Qian smiled slightly and said: "The older the children are, the more naughty they are. If there is anything rude, Zilong should not take it personally."
Zhao Yun shook his head and said: "Children's words are not forbidden, and besides, they are not rude."
Lu Lingqi invited Gan Qian and Zhao Yun to sit down at the stone table, and immediately ordered the maid to bring tea to quench their thirst.
"I heard that Ziyu said that the general came from afar to save Jingzhou. Now that he appears in Quanling, he must have defeated Cao Ren?" Gan Qian asked.
Zhao Yun nodded: "Cao Ren has withdrawn from Dangyang, and the danger in Jingzhou has been lifted. Yun was ordered by the lord to escort his wife, the prince, and the military advisor's family members to Shu. Jiangling is slowly preparing..."
"This... is my husband's order, so I will prepare immediately..." Gan Qian was a little distraught after hearing this. She heard that Liu Bei had adopted the Wu family in Yizhou, and now he would take their mother and son in so soon.
"General Zilong, are Mrs. Jiangling Sun also going with you?" Lu Lingqi asked curiously.
"Yes, merge into Shu." Zhao Yun replied.
Lu Lingqi frowned, "Sister, why don't you wait for Ziyu to arrange it? Let him prepare two boats to send you and Adou alone.
General Zilong doesn’t have to run around..."
Zhao Yun knew Lu Lingqi's scruples, so he just smiled and said nothing. Gan Qian next to him said seriously: "Since the Lord has already made arrangements, why let Ziyu act independently for my mother and son? Has General Zilong set a departure date? We must Follow the ship to Shu on time."
"There are more people leaving Jiangling, so it will take a few days to prepare. In addition, Military Advisor Xu and General Guan are waiting for the Yangtze River report, so the specific departure date has not been set yet." Zhao Yun explained.
"The Yangtze River News is usually published before the tenth day of the lunar month. It has been delayed for two months due to the war, but today is April 12th, so it shouldn't take too long." Gan Qian said with a smile.
"Then we should set off within the month." Zhao Yun analyzed.
Gan Qian continued to ask Zhao Yun about the situation in Yizhou. In the past, she had learned about the news there from the Yangtze River News, but due to limited space, the records were not very detailed.
While several adults were chatting, the three little ones stuck their butts out and hid in the east wing window to eavesdrop. But when they heard that they were leaving for Chengdu within this month, Adou's originally smiling face suddenly turned cloudy.
"Don't be sad, it's not like we can't see each other again in the future." Lan Yuan patted his shoulder to comfort him.
Adou pursed his lips and was about to cry: "But no one will play with me anymore..."
Lan Ji said nonchalantly: "It can't be possible, right? Chengdu should be a big city, but doesn't it even have children?"
"There must be a lot of children in Chengdu, but Adou can't go to the street to find playmates, right?" Lan Yuan tapped Lan Ji on the head. As the two of them grew older, Lan Ji had learned to respect his elder brother and no longer looked like him. As domineering as before.
"Even if I have playmates, no one takes me to play like you do, wuwuwu." Adou cried as he spoke.
"What's there to cry about? If no one takes you to play, you play with others. Isn't fighting beast chess your strong point? You can also play football..." Lan Ji kept giving Adou advice.
Adou's cry attracted several adults. Lu Lingqi rushed forward, pointed at Lan Ji and scolded: "Did you bully Adou? Do you need to deal with it?"
"How can I? I'm younger than him" Lan Ji looked innocent.
"Yuan'er, tell me." Lu Lingqi asked again with her hands on her hips.
"Forget it, brothers and sisters, they are all children..." Gan Qian quickly reconciled.
Lan Yuan shook his head and replied: "Mom, you misunderstood. It was Adou who couldn't bear to leave us, so he shed tears in sadness. It had nothing to do with Brother Ji."
"Seriously?" Lu Lingqi checked with Adou.
"Brother is right, Adou is reluctant to leave here and his aunt and uncle." Adou raised his elbows and spread his arms to wipe his tears.
