Chapter 1022
The cold wind whistled in my ears, the sky was full of thick, dark, turbid clouds, and the sudden thunder sounded like a pair of big hands struggling to squeeze the heart, full of suffocating narrowness, and that The lightning that seemed to tear the sky apart reflected a group of fast horses in the forest at the moment of explosion.

The rapid sound of horseshoes is hidden in this crazy and icy rainstorm.

In the pouring rain, a person reported in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, follow this road to the next town tomorrow morning, avoiding the dead soldiers."

On the other fast horse, a man stared sharply ahead. Even in this embarrassing torrential rain, a man with handsome and stylish features still exudes the air of an infinite king. striking.

Suddenly, the reins in his hand tightened, and the galloping horse under him was pulled to a stop. The hissing sound and the lightning in the night sounded at the same time, and a shocking painting was reflected in the swaying forest.

"Your Majesty?" The guards who followed him approached suspiciously.

Xiao Yichen stared at a small road in front of him, his starry eyes flashed as if he had thought of something...

The guard glanced in the direction of his gaze, and was about to ask, Xiao Yichen said lightly, "It's getting late, rest here for the night first."

Hearing this, the guards showed some joy on their faces. They have been on the road for three days, and they can finally rest!

But at this time, Xiao Yichen didn't wait for the reaction of the crowd, he pulled the rein in his hand suddenly, and the horse was already galloping towards the path ahead.

The long and narrow path becomes more and more mysterious in the night and in the rain. The twists and turns seem to have no end, and the road surface is covered with gravel and mud because of the rain. In the deep water, the horse will hesitate a little, but at this time The man was in a daze, his deep eyes looked at everything around him secretly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed.

He didn't expect that everything here was exactly the same as it was back then, the human-shaped stone was still on the side of the road, the wooden stakes, and the scarecrow that was blown crooked by the storm...

Too many familiar things made those memories that had long been as silent as dead ashes flood into my heart, the rein in Xiao Yichen's hand kept tightening, and complex emotions were reflected in his eyes.

Not far away, a thatched hut appeared in his line of sight, just as he had imagined in his heart, but the place had changed a bit after many years, the hut was bigger, surrounded by walls, and built a office yard.

Xiao Yichen walked in slowly. In the heavy rain, a sheep raised in captivity in the courtyard let out uneasy calls. The simple furnishings and unpretentious house, this is obviously just an ordinary house, but there are people everywhere. The breath of peace and tranquility in the soul, even in this howling stormy night, is still the same.

The corners of Xiao Yichen's tightly pursed mouth loosened a little, his sharp gaze swept around, and finally fell on the flickering candlelight window, he was a little lost in thought.

At this time, the owner of the house seemed to have heard the sound of horses outside, and slowly opened the door, looking up into the courtyard.

Xiao Yichen concentrated his thoughts, got off his horse, and the guards at the side immediately stepped forward to hold an umbrella for him. When he took a few steps closer, the man inside the door suddenly exclaimed, "Your Majesty?!"

"What? Is the young master here?" A surprised voice came from inside the room.

The man at the door also waved in surprise, "Tweety, come quickly, let's see who's coming!"

In the blink of an eye, a couple walked out with an umbrella. When they saw Xiao Yichen, their smiles became brighter. The joy from the heart made them a little excited.

"My lord, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you haven't changed much! I recognized you just now in the house!" The man smiled, and his eyes continued to look at the handsome man in front of him with joy and eagerness.

Xiao Yichen nodded lightly, with a gentle look on his face, but at this moment the man opposite seemed to have finally realized something, and hurriedly led the way, "Look at me, I was too happy to be happy, and I forgot about it, young master, come in Sit! Come in and sit down!"

Xiao Yichen didn't say a word, his eyes moved slightly, and the guards who followed him understood, quickly tied the horses outside the yard, and waited quietly outside.

The man paused slightly when he saw this, but he didn't say much, telling the woman beside him to go and prepare tea.

Xiao Yichen then followed the man into the house, just as he guessed, everything in the house was simple and even rough, but there were traces of warmth everywhere.

"My lord, don't be disgusted, my place is just a little small." The man scratched his head shyly, and then pulled a wooden stick to run around, isn't it hard work?Sit, sit, sit..."

Xiao Yichen hummed softly, sat down on the slightly cracked wooden stool, looked indifferently at the few plain teacups on the wooden table, and at this time the woman who was preparing the tea just now also walked quickly He came over and eagerly poured him a cup of tea.

At this time, Xiao Yichen also noticed that the woman was carrying a child on her back, and there were two children beside her. The children's clear eyes were also looking at him at this moment. The younger one was a little timid, and hid behind behind the woman.

The woman chuckled, stretched out her hands and gently rubbed the heads of the two children, "You two are so rude, you don't even know how to say hello!"

As soon as the words fell, she seemed to have noticed that Xiao Yichen had been looking at her ten-year-old son in a daze, and quickly smiled and said, "Master, he is Dong'er. If it wasn't for the son and the young lady who saved the woman, I'm afraid ...He won't be able to see this world anymore! Dong'er, call uncle!"

"Uncle!" Dong'er glanced at his mother hesitantly, but still called out obediently.

benefactor?Xiao Yichen's cold facial features were a little loose, and his memory reminded him of that year, and this place was the place where he and Yunshu hid in a disaster when he was still the prince.

At that time, the couple kindly took them in, but in the forest, the pregnant woman was attacked by jackals, and her life was in danger. At that time, it was Yunshu who chased away the jackals and healed her wounds. A woman gave birth again, and it was Yunshu who delivered her in the end, protecting the lives of their mother and child...

Xiao Yichen's heart trembled a little, remembering that time, they still lived here for seven days, and Yunshu at that time...

He silently sighed, with mixed feelings in his heart, he never expected to meet him now, not only the house has become bigger, but there are also more children, the faces of the couple have also changed slightly, and he...

"My lord, where is that lady? Why didn't you come back with you?" The woman's faint inquiry interrupted Xiao Yichen's thoughts, and a wry smile appeared on his handsome face.

He picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, but he didn't answer, but the moment he put down the teacup, he raised his hand, "Dong'er, come here and show uncle!"

The young man was suddenly named, and he was a little timid. Seeing this, the woman pulled him over.

Xiao Yichen patted him on the shoulder lightly, his eyes were full of sighs, he was just a crying baby back then, but now he has grown up, so tall!
He suddenly felt a little unbelievable, and what happened in the past ten years was more like a dream. He seemed to see the smile on Yunshu's face when she was holding the newly born child again. He still remembered when she said to himself... …

Suddenly, his eyes changed, and he thought of his own and Yun Shu's child, the child who died before it was born... He ruined all of this by himself!
At this time, the woman beside him suddenly said, "Dong'er, this uncle is your great benefactor. Without him, you would not be here! Come, kowtow to uncle!"

Xiao Yichen frowned slightly, and immediately stopped, "No, sister-in-law, maybe... this is destiny!"

The woman couldn't help being taken aback, not only because of the deep meaning in his words at this time, but also because of the aura on his body, which made people feel a little worried, "Master, what happened to that girl? Don't worry, sir, that girl has a kind heart." Kindness will turn bad luck into good luck. Back then, you were really a beautiful couple. We have received many guests in the past ten years, but none of them are as well-matched as you. Don't worry, my lord, that girl will definitely come back! "

Xiao Yichen's eyes changed, his deep eyes like a deep pool were stirred up, "How do you know, she left..."

The woman smiled helplessly, and her eyes were somewhat lonely, "Because the young master didn't have a smile on his face. When the young master looked at the girl back then, his face was full of brilliance! But now..."

Xiao Yichen subconsciously touched his face, the dark light in his eyes flickered deeply and shallowly, and there was an unbelievable feeling.

The former him...would he laugh too?When did that happen?

The corners of his mouth were pursed slightly, and the bitterness on his face became a little heavier. He had already forgotten when was the last time he really laughed heartily, and he didn't know when he started to hate her. He didn't understand why he had such an idea, as long as she was gone, all the people in this country would praise her great achievements, but today he wanted to find her back in such a mess, and this feeling It was like slapping himself, telling him that he had done wrong in the past, but he was terrified, knowing that she was no longer what she used to be, and that she had even fallen in love with another man...

The strings in Xiao Yichen's heart were tense at this moment, the sharp pain that penetrated into his flesh and blood made his back stiff, and anger appeared in his eyes!

The couple in the room looked at each other suspiciously, and frowned deeply.

Outside the house, the torrential rain was still pouring, and the thunder and lightning continued, but the small room suddenly became silent like a pool of stagnant water. If it wasn't for the child behind the woman who was startled by the thunder and cried out, even Xiao Yichen might not have noticed it. His own feelings at the moment, and when he saw the expressions of the couple, he realized his gaffe.
