Datang: Eight-year-old general

Chapter 464
The horseshoes rattled.

Li Yi led Xu Zhu and others, galloping under the setting sun that was about to get dark, and shouted, "Xu Zhu, arrange for the soldiers to deliver some food to the veteran."

"Of order." Xu Zhu reined in his horse and stopped.

Soon.

The old man in front of the hut heard the sound of the horse's hooves fading, turned around in confusion, and wanted to go back to the room to rest.

After all, he cannot see at night.

It's safest to stay in the hut.

Unexpectedly, the moment he turned around, there was a clear sound of horse hooves approaching him from behind.

Listening to the sound is riding alone.

The old man was even more confused, turned around and asked, "I don't know why you came back again?"

"By order of the general, I'm here to give food to the veteran." The returning Xiliang cavalry didn't know that Li Yi wanted to hide his identity, so he responded frankly to the old man.

"General!!" The old man was shocked when he heard the words, and quickly asked, "Please tell me, who is the general?"

"General Li Yi is His Royal Highness Tang Wang." Xiliang Tieqi blurted out, and he was a little dazed after he finished speaking, thinking to himself what was going on.

The general was here just now, didn't the old man know?
At this moment, he suddenly came to his senses, as if he had said something wrong.

"General Li Yi, the present His Royal Highness Tang Wang, Tang Xiaoyi..." the old man muttered, and tears flowed from his cloudy eyes for a moment.

"So it is, so it is."

"Tang Xiaoyi, Tang Wang Li Yi."

"Veteran..." Seeing this, Xiliang cavalry whispered in self-reproach.

"Thank you, young general, for letting me know." The veteran came back to his senses, wiped away his tears, and beat his chest with fists at the Xiliang cavalry.

"This... I can't bear it..." Xiliang iron rider scratched his helmet, quickly got off his horse to avoid it, and put a bag of grain at the veteran's feet.

Quickly retreating to the horse, he also clenched his fist and beat his chest and said, "Veteran, I'm proud of you, farewell..."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and galloped away.

The veteran in the thatched hut heard the sound, but suddenly knelt down on one knee and shouted loudly, "I humbly send my respects to the young master."

Just call out.

The eyes of the Xiliang iron cavalry soldiers galloping ahead instantly became moist.

He was wrong.

But this is because he feels that he has not said the wrong thing.

This matter will always be hidden in his heart.

Perhaps when dying, tell the story to the grandson.

But he needs to be alive.

The one-armed old man got up tremblingly when he could not hear the sound of the horse's hooves trampling on the ground at all, and walked towards Li Chengye's grave with a wooden stick.

Kneeling down on the stick, "General, the young master is back, and that kid actually lied to me, a blind old man. I guess he doesn't know that I hugged him when he was full moon..."

"However, General, I have taught the young master a few words, and it can be regarded as repaying me, the account he cheated..."

"General, the young master has grown up... really grown up..."

"General, following your veteran, I'm the only one left..."

No one knows.

In the deep mountains, there is also a loyal veteran who is telling his general his joy and sorrow after learning that his young master has returned...

vertical day.

After a night of raiding, Li Yi came to He Mingshan.

Looking at the dilapidated He Mingshan cottage in the distance, Li Yi lingered in melancholy for a long time before heading to the mountainside not far from here.

When walking forward, Li Yi raised his whip and shouted, "The Xiliang iron cavalry listened to the order and set up camp here, and repaired the cottage completely, and Xu Zhudianwei supervised the construction."

"Caiyue and Agujia come with me."

"Order."

Xu Zhu and Dian Wei looked at each other in dismay after receiving the order, a little confused about Li Yi's order.

Are they going to stay here for a long time?

And Li Yi, who was walking slowly, was also frowning and thinking about other things.

At this moment, Caiyue suddenly asked, "Young master, are we not going back to Chang'an?"

"Not going back for the time being." Li Yi shook his head and said, "I have nothing to do with the king at this time, and it's useless to go back, it will only increase troubles."

"And this king wants to rest here for a while."

"Then where is it?..." Caiyue nodded with a half understanding, and asked curiously.

Because Li Yi stayed in many places in Anxi.

Anxi City, Ningyuan City, Shule City, they can all rest and recuperate, but she chose this name, which really puzzled her.

Even Agujia was the same, with curious eyes, he looked up at Li Yi secretly.

"This is my second home." Li Yi was silent for a while, then said leisurely, "Except for Ningyuan City, this is my favorite place to come before."

As he said that, Li Yi smiled unconsciously, "It was really fun at that time, I was digging out bird eggs all over the mountains, and I went out to hunt with the people from the He Mingshan cottage, you don't know how miserable they were tossed by me. "

"But who told them to treat me like a little kid..." Li Yi's eyes were reddish, and he continued to laugh with tears in his eyes, "Caiyue, you don't know, there is a man named Wang Ermazi in the cottage, in fact, his face There was only one pockmark, but I lied to him that I could get rid of it for him, but I used the wrong medicine, which made his face full of pockmarks."

"Are you saying it's funny or not..."

"There is also Wang Dahuizi. I often speak Bashu dialect to him, and he is so angry that he holds up a big hammer and chases me all over the village to scold Guawazi."

"There is also Sun Laizi, who is limping when he walks. I took him down the river to fish, but his leg cramped and almost drowned in the river."

"You don't know, they all like the second girl in the cottage. I often give them bad ideas, causing them three to be beaten up by the second girl. It was really fun at that time."

"There is also a cold lump named Xueniang, she..." Li Yi couldn't continue talking here.

There are still many things in the cottage, which flashed through his mind, making Li Yi a little distracted, and the tears rolled down in his eyes without knowing it.

He just said in a hoarse voice, "They didn't blame me. For the safety of Ningyuan City, they resolutely went down the mountain and fought bloody food with me."

"In the end they all went..."

When Caiyue and Agujia heard this, they looked at Li Yi who was crying and laughing, their eyes flushed.

cried softly,
"Little Master..."

"Owner……"

They didn't know what Li Yi had experienced, and they didn't know how to comfort him.

"Haha...the king is fine." Li Yi laughed, waved his hands and said, "I'm nagging for a while, just listen and let it go."

indeed.

Touching the scene.

I couldn't control my emotions for a while.

However, with this catharsis, Li Yi's inner loneliness seemed to be much better.

After all, people have to learn to face it.

Seeing Li Yi like this, the two women were unwilling to ask, which touched Li Yi's heartstrings again.

Follow behind Li Yi and move on.

little time.

They were halfway up the mountain.

In the eyes, there are dilapidated thatched cottages, green vines entangled with old trees, and an unnamed solitary grave next to it.

Li Yi got off the horse and said, "Caiyue, Agujia, you two go and tidy up the hut, this is the place for us to recuperate."

"Yes, young master (master)." The two girls nodded and started to walk towards the hut, but turned their heads slightly to look at the lonely grave.

I don't know who was buried among them.

Is it the young master's aunt?

But why not be buried with his father?
And Li Yi came to the old tree and patted his trunk, "Old tree, old tree, are you afraid that I will eat your peaches?"

"Why don't you have peaches?"

After complaining a few words, Li Yi walked to the lonely grave and sat on the ground like that, not afraid that the mud would stain his royal robe.

Supporting his head, he turned to Gufen and said, "I've come to see you..."
