Song Chengwei still didn't answer.
Song Yu was too lazy to talk nonsense, regardless of whether it was useful or not, he shook out a table of red medicine, then pulled Jie Nanshi out in a big way. After passing through the formation, everyone was shocked to find that there were two more people in the palace of the city lord. For a moment, there was the sound of armor and fighting, and all the guards were ready.
"Let them go—" Song Chengwei's voice was very majestic, and seemed to have a little more vitality than before.
"Yes." The guards put down their swords and discovered that one of the two people was their young city lord Song Yu. He immediately knelt down and said, "Young City Lord, my subordinates are blind, please atone for your sins."
Song Yu just waved his hand. He drove his horse for two days and one night, and came here to treat his cheap dad with almost no rest. I was so tired and sleepy now that I really didn't have the energy to say anything.
Fortunately, there was Xie Nanshi beside him, otherwise Song Yu wouldn't know if he could still walk upright and leave here.
After all, the young city lord who fell down in front of all the guards... looked very unsightly.
…
On the other side, after the two left, the guards looked at each other. Seeing that there was no one else around, they gathered together and talked quietly.
"Young City Master...when did he come back?"
Another guard shook his head: "I always feel that the Young City Lord has become a little different these two times he has come back."
"So it's right to drive him outside. Only in this way can he learn to be independent."
Several guards were stunned for a moment. They clearly didn't speak, and this voice... Several of them subconsciously turned around and saw Song Chengwei walking out of the hall with his hands folded.
The city lord's fine clothes are heavy and often require servants to serve before they can wear them properly. Although these guards have been stationed here for many years, they have never seen Song Chengwei today. Her hair was disheveled and her clothes were loose, as if she had put them on in a hurry. But no matter how sloppy his clothes were, it did not detract from his majesty.
What's more, except for the secret guards, almost everyone has not seen him for several days. Rumors about Song Chengwei spread like wildfire, none of them good news. Now I see him with his hands behind his back, standing as tall and straight as before.
Everyone's eyes and hearts suddenly heated up, and they quickly knelt down. Everyone spoke in unison and shouted in unison: "Greetings to the City Lord!"
The sound travels far and wide, layer by layer.
"Everyone, get up." Song Chengwei said, and he was already walking away.
The direction he was heading towards was the pear blossom forest.
Song Cheng's majestic steps were not big, but in only a few steps he had arrived at the forest where pear blossoms bloomed regardless of the season. A little further ahead is the courtyard deep in the pear blossoms, but Song Chengwei stopped here. He has endless attachment to this place, but deep in his attachment is fear.
By now, he rarely even looked here from a distance. But his instinctive escape could not let him forget that there was once a person he loved most among the pear blossoms.
"Yue'e, I have asked Yu'er to leave home as you requested back then." Song Chengwei stood under a pear tree, which had the most luxuriant flowers in the entire forest.
Song Chengwei's voice paused, and then became brisk again: "You are right, he may not need my protection for the rest of his life. Although he has no talent for cultivation, he still has his own way of life. He has made very powerful friends. He also has methods that I can't even see through. He...is worthy of being your child."
"Our son is fine now, you can rest assured." Song Chengwei said with a hint of vibrato in his last voice, "He has grown up."
"If I hadn't been seriously injured back then and tired you to death...and now our only son has been left homeless...I'm sorry..."
He said as if he couldn't bear it anymore, he slowly squatted down holding on to the tree. After a long time, he straightened his back again and was about to turn around. He happened to see a pear blossom on the tree about to fall. He waved his long sleeve and a faint light fell on the pear blossom. The already withered pear blossom was like a dead tree blooming in spring. Restored to its most beautiful state.
Every step Song Chengwei took back seemed to be stepping on golden lotus. The golden lotus turned into golden light and dispersed into the pear forest, nourishing the land.
After his figure disappeared, a woman walked out from the depths of the courtyard, bowed her sleeves in Song Chengwei's direction.
…
A white dove streaked across the night sky, hovering above the 100,000-strong army. For a moment, it seemed to have found its target, leaning down and rushing down.
It fell on the shoulders of Lin Ting, who was wearing light armor. Seeing this, the guards on both sides of Lin Ting finally put away their crossbows and retreated to the rear.
Lin listened to the white feathers of the pigeon and took out the letter from its leg. There was only a brief sentence on it: "The Young City Master disappeared from his residence and no trace has been found."
Lin Ting frowned slightly, and then couldn't help but laugh. His nephew really brought surprises to him every day, first with his revealed talents and personality, and then with his disappearance this time... He was really well hidden. But what if you escape? Song Chengwei has very little time left, and he doesn't believe that he won't come back until the day Song Chengwei dies. When the time comes, the result will be the same, unable to escape from his grasp.
What he didn't know was that his nephew would soon have a big surprise for him.
In the early morning of the next day, Song Chengwei, who had not been to court for nearly half a year, changed into a formal suit and appeared in the court hall, sitting upright in a high position. The originally idle courtiers all fell silent for a moment and knelt down in unison.
"The battle between Tianyong and Bai Zhao is about to begin. Gu has decided to lead the expedition in person, and Northern General Xiao Nan will accompany Gu to defend the enemy." Song Chengwei seemed to be just here to announce this decision, and strode away after speaking.
This decision was so sudden that everyone was shocked. However, no one raised a voice to object. Instead, they still bowed and said, "I will obey the city lord's order."
This is the prestige that Song Chengwei accumulated in Tianyong.
…
It was already noon the next day when Song Yu woke up. Although he had a lot of harsh words with Song Chengwei, Song Yu still felt a little regretful after leaving the palace. He always felt that he should have a good talk with Song Chengwei. Even if he really wanted to leave, he still had to explain some trivial matters clearly. .
For example, some more travel expenses... Although the upgraded Song Dynasty is not impoverished, it can no longer be as lavish and extravagant as before.
However, after leaving the city lord's mansion, Song Yu felt an irresistible dizziness. It was Xie Nanshi who helped him go to the inn and open a guest room, otherwise Song Yu felt that he could have passed out like this under the wall of an unknown house.
He slept for fifteen or six hours in one breath, but Song Yu didn't feel refreshed at all. Instead, he felt dizzy and his whole body felt as heavy as lead.
There was no need for him to say anything. Xie Nanshi immediately entered the house with porridge and side dishes. And the familiar green-feathered parrot landed on the side of Song Yu's head, jumping back and forth on the pillow, stepping on the edge of Song Yu's face with every foot.
Song Yu tried his best to push Yuan Fang away: "What a coincidence?"
"How did you rest?" Xie Nanshi was also a little confused. He checked the opponent's pulse while Song Yu was asleep, but Song Yu was a special person, and it was difficult for Xie Nanshi to compare and judge the opponent's physical condition with ordinary pulse conditions.
Song Yu shook his head: "I barely survived. By the way, the city lord didn't come to trouble you, right?"
Xie Nanshi shook his head.
Song Yu sneered: "You said you had to leave tonight. I thought he wanted to use it for personal use, so he sent someone to take us out directly."
"If it is really so grand, your efforts to avoid Lin Ting's eyes and sneak back here will be in vain."
"I know, I know, why don't I just give you a blowjob? Why are you so serious?" Song Yu reluctantly raised his sore arms, scooped up the porridge and put it into his mouth. A mouthful of porridge was hard to swallow, and Song Yu almost choked to death with a yawn.
Xie Nanshi patted him on the back: "How are you? Can you go on the road?"
"able."
"What about Qiaoyi?" Xie Nanshi asked, "Do you want to pick her up?"
Song Yu immediately put down the porridge. He didn't say it was okay, but as soon as he said it, he remembered that he didn't have to be so aggrieved to eat so lightly, and he took out a lot of side dishes from his backpack like flowers. He thought while eating, biting his chopsticks for a while before he came to a conclusion: "If we don't pick it up now, we may not be safe on the road. Letting her stay in Chen Guogong's mansion is equivalent to having one more hostage for Lin Ting. In order to contain this hostage If I wait a little longer, I won’t let anything happen to Qiaoyi.”
As Song Yu spoke, he took a bite of the cold lotus root slices made by Qiaoyi, and his eyebrows twitched. Then he asked without answering, "Did you hear any news when you were out today?"
Hearing this, Jie Nanshi raised his head and looked at Song Yu.
Song Yu didn't wait for Jie Nanshi's answer before continuing to guess: "Is the imperial commander going to fight in person?"
Although Xie Nanshi didn't speak, the surprised expression on his face said everything.
Song Yu smiled and answered Nan Shi's doubts naturally: "This setting is reasonable. I originally suspected that the four-city melee would be a large-scale siege in the later stage, but I gave it up because the strength was too uneven. I guessed. Now it seems that it was just because I didn’t complete all the lines in the last game that I couldn’t open the siege dungeon, and the most critical link missing was Tianyong’s Sea Ding Needle and Song Chengwei.”
Xie Nanshi didn't fully understand what Song Yu said, but he could probably understand the meaning of his words. Personal conquest is the most effective and quick way to counter the white call that raises the White Walker King.
I am afraid that from the moment Song Yu treated Song Chengwei, he had already calculated this scene. "So, what's your plan?"
"Since we are all going to Bai Zhao, why don't we go with the army." Song Yu was a little nervous, and even the movement of picking up the food in his hands was slow. As far as Xie Nanshi's schedule is concerned, he is a complete burden to the other party. But after going through the plot of Tianyong City, Song Yu always felt that his identity as the "young city lord" should not be just a one-time thing in the capital of Tianyong City.
In addition, Tianyong and Bai Zhao are now at war. As the young city lord, it is unreasonable for Song Yu to stay out of the matter. Therefore, Song Yu is almost certain that as long as he can follow the large army, he will definitely be able to experience important plots that he has not experienced in the first episode.
The only problem is that Xie Nanshi is in a hurry to go to Guixu to save his father. If he hadn't taken him with him, Xie Nanshi would have left Tianyong and arrived at Baizhao in a few days. The speed of marching with the army will only be slower than that of taking Song Yu with him.
Song Yu was wondering if Xie Nanshi would part ways with him.
