remember who i am

The night is slightly cool, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.

At the edge of the pool in Prince Jing's Mansion, Ji Yan is doing Tai Chi to reduce the excess food in his stomach.

The events of these years kept replaying in my mind.

For a while it was Aze when he was a child, for a while it was Du Chunyu in Du's mansion, and for a while it was Du Chunyu who would hide small pancakes for himself in Loulan's clothes.

Thinking about it, my heart felt like being pricked by a needle, and the pain penetrated into the bone marrow inch by inch.

Du Chunyu is kind to himself, but this kind of kindness is what he begged for little by little.

No matter where he is, he is the one who takes the initiative to stick to Aze, and only then will he get a little response; and this kind of goodness is not the kind of goodness he thought...

Ge Yue who was at the side could see that Ji Yan was in a bad mood.

Following Ji Yan's movements, he clumsily followed Ji Yan to do Tai Chi.

"How about we run away?" Ge Yue asked tentatively.

Since King Jing let the little master out to mess around, it must be the meaning of the one in the palace.

Moreover, seeing that the little master misses Li Tao so much, Ge Yue, as a guard who sees everything, naturally expresses her distress.

"Wait, wait a little longer!" Ji Yan hesitated, not daring to do anything.

The only option is to wait, wait for time to dilute everything, and wait for him to think about it.

Ge Yue cast a contemptuous glance at Ji Yan, then shook her head helplessly.

I was really worried about Ji Yan, chasing a man would be a pain in the ass!

Outside the city of Youzhou, the people of Loulan camped out.

Du Chunyu was also unable to sleep.

Lying blankly on the back of the cow that Ji Yan used to sit on, he dug out a small sweet stick from somewhere and chewed it non-stop.

Following Ji Yan's example, he raised one leg carelessly.

so sweet.

No wonder Xingzhi likes to eat so much.

From afar, a gray crow flew straight to where Du Chunyu was.

Find Du Chunyu accurately and fall quickly.

Standing proudly on the bull's head, he stared at Du Chunyu's eyes and tilted his head.

Du Chunyu stared at the crow's eyes for a long time, then got off the cow's back in a correct posture, and took a bamboo tube from its leg.

After reading the letter, Du Chunyu leaned on the ox cart all of a sudden, and read the words in the letter back and forth several times uncertainly.

He stumbled and ran to Hua Sheng's tent.

Seeing that Hua Sheng was still cooking snacks, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "Grandpa Hua, grandfather is in danger now, he must return to Fufeng immediately."

The shovel in Hua Sheng's hand fell to the ground without any pause, "I'll follow you, clean it up right away."

He didn't even prepare any superfluous things, he only brought a huge Bamboo Ling Baibi and some simple necessities, and hurried on the road.

…………

Nine days later, the envoy came to Youzhou City with the emperor's imperial decree.

Because of Ji Yan's testimony, Ji Xiujie deliberately set aside a piece of land on the outskirts of Youzhou City, allowing [-] people in Loulan to live here temporarily.

It's just that he can no longer claim to be a Loulan person.

Now they are all the people of Huanbei.

One hundred thousand people entered Youzhou uniformly, and settled in the suburbs of Youzhou smoothly.

Shang Feng, who was walking in the front, held Shang Yizhi in his arms and nodded in satisfaction.

Yes, the place is open, with mountains and water, suitable for animal husbandry and farming.

Such a place is simply more suitable for living than Loulan.

Yaxiang picked a place with high and flat terrain, and helped Uncle Wang set up a tent boldly.

Shang Feng walked over, stared at the busy Yaxiang, and flattered him, "Sister Ya, when will you help us set up the tent?"

Along the way, Shang Feng and Yaxiang, as the leaders of the people, naturally had a lot of contact.

In the past in Loulan, although the two were related by blood, after all, one was in the palace and the other was in the market, so they didn't know each other.

Now after getting along all the way, the two of them are all for the sake of the people, and their opinions and opinions are surprisingly consistent.

Yaxiang has always been in charge of Shang Feng's tent, and Shang Feng is responsible for preparing food and clothing for Yaxiang. The two get along very harmoniously, and they are almost sisters.

"Okay, okay, I'll get it for you when I finish my work for Uncle Wang." Yaxiang readily agreed.

Fangzheng, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't take it anymore.Seeing Shang Feng, a seven-foot man with hands and feet, instead of helping with the work, he was taking care of the children.

On the other hand, Yaxiang is obviously a woman. Although she is very strong, she cannot be allowed to do such heavy work.

He looked at Shang Feng contemptuously, without saying much, took Shang Feng's luggage and started to set up the tent on the spot.

Shang Feng: "No, no, Yaxiang can do it alone."

Yaxiang echoed from the side, "Yes, go and rest on the side!"

Fangzheng was very real, and said disapprovingly, "I can't just watch a woman do such a rough job!"

Yaxiang proudly wiped the ashes on her face with her sleeves, what's the matter, women, they just want to work to support their families.

It's just a little bit of dust, after being wiped off, it's all over the face.

Seeing Yaxiang who was already dark, this time it was even darker, Fangzheng put up the tent even more without saying a word, and helped Yaxiang a lot after finishing the work earlier.

Shang Feng blinked, Huanbei people are so enthusiastic!

The very moved Shang Feng hugged Shang Yizhi and surrounded Fangzheng, and began to talk about Loulan's past, and the essentials of governing the country.

Fangzheng: ...

Yaxiang was relieved, Shang Feng finally stopped nagging herself.

The people of Loulan got a new place to live, and all of them were full of energy. The whole suburb of Youzhou was filled with a happy and lively atmosphere.

Connecting the city and the suburbs of Youzhou is a small country road.

The lively sound can be heard on the small road.

Ji Yan paced back and forth on the path, not knowing how to take this step.

Ge Yue, who was on the side, couldn't stand it anymore, and was a little angry, "Are you going? If you don't go, I will go first."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Ji Yan to respond, Ge Yue left his little master and walked to Shang Feng's tent first.

Because Ge Yue was in front of him, Ji Yan also mustered up his courage, and walked forward behind Ge Yue.

When Ge Yue saw Shang Feng, it was as if she had seen some treasure. She took Shang Feng's arm and started talking enthusiastically.

Fangzheng rubbed his ears that had been nagging for a long time. Without the nagging of Loulan's little brother, the whole world was finally clean again.

"Where's Du Chunyu?" Ji Yan stepped forward, interrupting the two who were chatting enthusiastically.

Ji Yan, who searched the entire suburb, did not see Du Chunyu.

"Du Chunyu? He left long ago!" Shang Feng rubbed his forehead, not knowing why.

Full of excitement and a touch of fear, all disappeared in an instant.

Aze once again left without saying goodbye.

Leaving aside the cheerful Ge Yue who was still chatting with Shang Feng, he frantically ran back to Prince Jing's mansion.

Now that the ten days have expired and the promise has been fulfilled, it is time for Ji Jing to let him go.

Back at the palace, Ji Jing was already in his room, not knowing what he was doing.

Ji Yan was terrified immediately, and if he was ready, he would forget about it.

I wanted to retreat, but there was a wall behind me, and there was nowhere to retreat.

Seeing that Ji Yan was so afraid of her, Ji Jing felt extremely sad.

Handed over a package, closed his eyes, "Let's go."

Ji Yan took the package obediently, lowered his head, and continued to listen to the third brother's lecture.

Ji Jing: ...

Ji Jing didn't know what to say, seeing Ji Yan's humbly receptive expression, she was so angry that she almost couldn't bear it.

After holding back for a long time, he said, "write more letters if you have nothing to do, the queen mother misses you very much." He also wanted it very much.

Ji Jing silently added the second half of the sentence in her heart.

Ji Yan said "Oh", and seeing that Ji Jing hadn't spoken for a long time, he cupped his hands and said tentatively, "Then third brother, I'm leaving."

Ji Jing still wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a long time, she still couldn't think of what to say.

Sighing, "You, be good."

Ji Yan glanced at Ji Jing in surprise, Ji Jing hurriedly urged Ji Yan to leave quickly.

Ji Yan got on his horse and left according to his words.

He watched helplessly as Yaodi gradually drifted away until he could no longer see Ji Yan, and he was still standing there.

Xiao Zelan looked at her husband's dazed look, leaned on Ji Jing, and said, "Yanyan has grown up, it's time for him to go out and see."

Ji Jing nodded, he understood the reasoning, but he still felt very sad to see Yaodi, whom he had grown up with since he was a child, leave like this.

Looking at the extremely wronged Ji Jing, Xiao Zelan hugged Ji Jing helplessly, and patted Ji Jing's back lightly.

The two people stared at the place where Ji Yan had just appeared, and stood like two statues.

……

Speeding all the way, Fufeng after half a month.

In an inn, Xiao Er was at a table, pouring wine for the guests, talking freely while pouring wine.

"If you want to talk about the Du family, I'm afraid it won't work."

"Hahaha, no, the Du family has offended the Tian family, and there are still good fruits to eat!" A strong man answered.

"That's not true. The eldest son of the Du family said that he took some treasure back and wanted to exchange it for the old man of the Du family, but who knows, Mr. Du was..." Xiaoer's expression was enigmatic.

"What happened?"

"Hey, I was appointed by the Tian family to control the plague in Jiangning!"

"Tsk, poor Mr. Du is so young and promising, yet he has to rely on his own strength to save the Du family."

"That's right, who doesn't know, this Jiangning plague is coming so fiercely, it's all gone and never returned!"

"That is to say, now that Jiangning has closed the city, I heard that the people inside have killed Zhizhou, and they are going to force their way out!"

"Then look, even if the Du family is the dominant family, they can't compare to the Tian family after all!"

"That's not what you said. The Du family extends from Huanbei in the north to Xiliang in the west. It's not a big deal. Our Tian family in Fufeng is not even a fart in front of the Du family!"

"Be careful, brother."

When the people at the table heard the outrageous words, they became as quiet as chickens.

Xiao Er cleared away the empty plates on the table, and walked towards the back kitchen with the plates.

In an inconspicuous corner, Ji Yan listened to Cai's words, and tightly gripped the teacup in his hand.

He muttered to himself, "Jiang Ning?"

"Yes, are we going to Jiangning too?" Ge Yue saw Ji Yan and sat down next to Ji Yan.

Ji Yan covered his face in pain, "Why are you here again?"

He had already left Ge Yue behind, when did this person catch up?

Ge Yue bought a cup of tea for herself, "Just arrived."

This unscrupulous master wanted to leave him all the time. That day, after he dragged Shang Feng back to Prince Jing's mansion, he was told that Ji Yan had already left.

Ge Yue, who lost her little master, didn't know which way Ji Yan took, after all, there were too many roads from Youzhou to Fufeng.

Casually, Ge Yue chose a waterway.

All the way to the south by boat, Ge Yue thought that the waterway can travel day and night, so he must go to Fufeng first.

But after all the calculations, Ge Yue didn't calculate that he would get seasick.

Halfway through the walk, I became dizzy and had to turn into a dirt road halfway, which wasted time and cost a lot of money.

Thinking of this, Ge Yue cried and said, "Little master, you have to pay me for the travel expenses." These days, being a bodyguard is hard, and being a competent bodyguard is even more difficult!

Not only must they try their best to protect the safety of the master, but even their salary will not be reimbursed.

Ji Yan stood up, patted Ge Yue's face, and sighed, "It's quite thick, it hasn't fallen off yet."

Then he left without looking back, leaving Ge Yue with a thin back.

Ge Yue had a look of lovelessness, no more love.

Ge Yue followed Ji Yan to the Du Mansion, the huge mansion was surrounded by soldiers.

A seal was pasted on the gate, and no one inside could come out.

Ji Yan suddenly thought that the two elders of the Du family were anxious to send the students abroad that day, did they already know that this day would come?

Calculating the time, those students are probably still doing tasks outside now.

Facing the gate of Du Mansion, Ji Yan bowed slightly.

With Ge Yue, continue southward.

The horse galloped quickly, but within five days' journey, they came to Jiangning City.

The gates of the city were closed tightly, but not a single soldier was seen on the towering city walls.

Ji Yan immediately flew over the city wall.

Like a dexterous cat, it landed gently on the ground without making a sound.

Ge Yue arrived later, only to find that the scene in the city was not what they had imagined.

On the streets, there is no imaginary scene of corpses and refugees everywhere.

The entire street is very empty and quiet, without any sound, it will make people feel flustered after staying for a long time.

Rather than saying that Jiangning is now a plague city, it is better to say it is an empty city.

Ge Yue put her arms around her chest after realizing it, and hid behind Ji Yan, never leaving her.

Ji Yan slapped Ge Yue on the head, pulling him out from behind, "Are you the master or am I the master?"

Ge Yue broke away from Ji Yan's hand, straightened her collar, without any guilt, "Of course it's you."

Ji Yan looked forward speechlessly, but saw a person not far away, facing a wall and didn't know what he was doing.

The familiar body should be something stuck on the wall.

"Li Tao!" Ji Yanfu cried out suddenly, in his heart.

Sure enough, after hearing Ji Yan's words, Li Tao turned around as he said.

Seeing Ji Yan, he opened his mouth wide.

Ji Yan walked towards Li Tao quickly, Li Tao stared blankly at Ji Yan, as if he hadn't realized why Ji Yan appeared in Jiangning City.

Hasn't this plague city been sealed off a long time ago?

Seeing Ji Yan's excited face, Ge Yue raised the corners of her lips in an inscrutable way.

Finally saw it.

Ge Yue only felt a special sense of accomplishment.

When he walked up to Li Tao, Ji Yan realized that there was a little boy in his early ten years beside Li Tao.

He opened his mouth, he urgently needed to know if Du Chunyu was safe now, "Li Tao, Du Chunyu, is he okay?"

Li Tao can't speak, and now he doesn't have a pen, so it's hard to communicate with Ji Yan.

Du Ziteng was very understanding, and asked coldly, "Do you know my brother?"

Ji Yan reached out and pinched Du Ziteng's face, it was plump and soft.

But still not as good as Du Chunyu's.

He smiled, "You are Du Ziteng, your brother told me about you."

"Hoo!" Someone touched Du Ziteng's face, covered his face immediately, and jumped to hide behind Li Tao.

Ji Yan: ...

Looking in Du Ziteng's direction, he found a portrait of someone missing on the wall behind him.

He patted Li Tao on the shoulder and said nothing.

Li Tao led Ji Yan and Ge Yue back to the temporary accommodation, the magistrate was killed, now Du Chunyu is Jiang Ning's biggest sky.

He led Li Tao and Du Ziteng to live in the guest room of the yamen.

Along the way, Du Ziteng stared at Ji Yan frequently, hesitating to speak to Ji Yan.

"What's the matter, does Ziteng have anything to say?" Ji Yan couldn't help asking, being stared at by Du Ziteng so uncomfortably.

"What did my brother tell you?" Du Ziteng hesitated, but still asked.

"You really want to know?" Ji Yan asked back.

"Yeah." Du Ziteng said honestly, he still cared more about his image in his brother's heart.

"Then I won't tell you. If you want to know, you can ask Du Chunyu yourself, hahahahahaha."

Du Ziteng: ...

Du Ziteng was very angry, and walked last with a tense face.

Ji Yan stroked Du Ziteng's hair, and walked forward with the child in his arms.

Du Ziteng suddenly fell silent, and twisted his body uncomfortably.

The journey was not far, and soon they arrived at Jiangning Yamen.

Inside the Yamen.

Du Chunyu was sitting on a chair, and next to him was an internal official in a brown official uniform.

The two stood opposite each other, and the atmosphere was not good.

Du Ziteng entered first, passed Shen Yuan and walked straight to Du Chunyu.

Shen Yuan looked at the young but steady Du Ziteng, his eyes darkened, and he said in a soft voice, "Du Chunyu, don't be ignorant, your grandfather's life is in the hands of the regent." of!"

Although the words were full of domineering, but from Shen Yuan's mouth, they lost seven points of domineering.

"I have my own measure." Du Chunyu nodded slightly, lost the smile on his face, and was quite serious.

As soon as Ji Yan stepped forward with his left foot, he saw Du Chunyu at first sight.

Passing Du Ziteng and Shen Yuan, he looked straight at Du Chunyu.

However, in the past few days, Aze lost a lot of weight. His face, which didn't have much flesh, was even skinny now.

Ji Yan looked distressed, if he hadn't had any trouble with Du Chunyu, would he have felt better?

Just being so silent and sulking at himself should make Du Chunyu very distressed.

Ji Yan fidgeted to pluck out his shoulder-length hair, and found that the expression on Du Chunyu's face was so serious that no one dared to look directly at it.

I am used to seeing Du Chunyu's gentle smiling face, but suddenly seeing Du Chunyu who said "I am serious" all over his face, he was stunned for a moment.

When Du Chunyu saw Ji Yan, he obviously couldn't believe it. He held back what he was going to say, but when he took a closer look at Ji Yan's face, his face, which was originally not very good, turned dark again.

Ge Yue, who was behind, pulled Li Tao and talked about his hardships along the way, "Little Taotao, you don't know, the boat was bumping so badly that I almost vomited out my guts!"

Ge Yue's exaggerated way of narrating caused Li Tao to laugh silently. With the arrival of these two people, the quiet atmosphere in the room instantly collapsed.

With a straight face, Du Chunyu said, "Chun Yu has already heard what Master Shen said, please go back to the guest room to rest first, Master Shen."

Shen Yuan was so angry, "You!"

He paced around, walked back and forth twice, threw off his sleeves, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, said, "You can do it yourself!", and left without looking back.

Following Shen Yuan's departure, Du Chunyu's complexion eased, and he calmed down his expression. It was extremely difficult to show a smile.

Seeing Ji Yan standing there obediently not far away, it just felt unreal.

He said shyly, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Ning is not safe now, he can't protect Ji Yan at all.

"Well, come to accompany you." Ji Yan stepped forward, looking directly into Du Chunyu's eyes.

"Then, are you not angry anymore?" Du Chunyu looked at Ji Yan anxiously and asked.

Although Du Chunyu didn't know why Ji Yan was angry, he must have done something wrong.

Ji Yan's eyes turned red, and he was about to cry again.After holding back a few times, he denied it with difficulty, "No, I'm not angry."

"Okay, okay, I'm not angry." Du Chunyu coaxed Ji Yan, and then said, "Stop,"

After finishing speaking, he stopped for a while, not knowing what to call Ji Yan, and said carefully, "Ji Yan, you can't be here."

"Then you go?" Ji Yan cast a glance at Du Chunyu.

Du Chunyu shook his head, this is related to his family's life, he can't leave.

Ji Yan turned around and sat on a chair beside him, picked up a clean teacup, poured green tea, and took a sip.

Leisurely said, "Since I have entered this city and drank this water, no one can drive me away."

After finishing speaking, he dropped the tea cup in his hand to the ground to prove his intention.

Ge Yue's eyes were straightened, this, this is Quandezhen porcelain!

Staring at the broken porcelain pieces with the word "Quande" printed on the ground, Ge Yue picked up the pieces sadly, staring at the two words with a sad face.

The former prefect was insatiably greedy, so the common people mobilized and attacked him, and he was left behind in the streets and chaotic markets.

And all the expenses in this county government are well-known and treasures.

Du Chunyu didn't care about these extraneous things, if they fell, they would fall.

Holding the broken cup, Ge Yue carefully took out a handkerchief, wrapped the broken cup inside, and carefully put it in her bosom.

No one paid attention to Ge Yue's sudden sadness, Ji Yan clamored for food as usual, "Is there any speciality here in Jiangning, I don't know what the taste of the dry pot duck head here is."

When Du Ziteng heard Ji Yan say that he wanted to eat, his eyes lit up imperceptibly.

Du Chunyu lowered his eyes, thought for a while, and said, "Maybe it's not as delicious as Grandpa Hua's food."

Right now, people in Jiangning City are in panic, regardless of whether they are sick or not, no one has the heart to cook for others.

The hotels and all shops in Jiangning are closed to thank customers.

In the past few days, Du Chunyu and Li Tao have been cooking, barely enough to eat.He didn't even think about eating.

Du Ziteng had had enough of Du Chunyu's poor cooking.

Opening a pair of round eyes, he looked at Ji Yan expectantly.

Brother Xingzhi looks so good at talking, so he should be able to do it too!

Du Ziteng licked his lips, the aloofness he had just lost had long since disappeared.

Ji Yan: Why do you always look at him? ? ?

He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I really can't stand you two, then I'll cook and cook for you."

During those days in Loulan, Ji Yan, who had nothing to do, learned from Hua Sheng to cook a few special dishes for emergencies.

After working in the kitchen for a while, the diligent Du Ziteng brought four freshly baked side dishes to the table.

Smelling this smell, Du Ziteng couldn't control his saliva anymore.

Picking up a chopstick and putting it in his mouth, Du Ziteng was completely captured by Ji Yan, and he secretly made up his mind that he would follow Ji Yan from now on!

The author has something to say:

small theater:

Du Chunyu: I miss my wife QAQ

Ji Yan: Tell me, who is your wife (╰_╯)

Du Chunyu: you

Ji Yan: Am I ヾ(≧O≦)〃哦~

Du Ziteng: Sister-in-law's cooking is super delicious ヽ(￣▽￣)?

Du Chunyu: Alright, let's go play after eating

Du Ziteng: I don't

Du Chunyu: Be good, next time it is not suitable for children

Du Ziteng: (⊙o⊙)...

Ji Yan: ヾ(≧O≦)〃哦~
