Liao Zimeng is the eldest brother in the family. When Liao Xiaofu entered the palace, he was still picking ginseng in the Mala Mountain, but he didn't come back in time. This matter was his regret.Six years have passed, and the little brother who had disappeared without a word suddenly appeared at the door of the house. It was like a thunderbolt, and Liao Zimeng didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

"Xiao Fu, big brother's Xiao Fu!"

Liao Zimeng collected ginseng in the extremely dangerous dense forest in the mountains, fought with wild animals, looked thin but strong, tightly hugged his lost and recovered younger brother, tears welled in his eye sockets, and he managed not to fall out.Of course he knew how his little brother was tortured and what he lost in his body.But because he didn't communicate with outsiders in the mountains all year round, he couldn't say a word with the blood and tears in his stomach, but he just hugged his younger brother tightly and didn't want to let him go back.

"Brother, relax, relax, I'm holding back." Liao Xiaofu threw himself into Liao Zimeng's chest crying, and couldn't breathe after being hugged tightly, whispered.

"That's right, it's my elder brother's fault. It's my elder brother's incompetence that made you be arrested..." Liao Zimeng didn't want to touch his mind, so he wiped away his tears, swallowed his words, and dragged Liao Xiaofu into the yard Go, "Hurry up! Go back to the house and talk to Big Brother, Big Brother will bake pancakes for you!"

"Ok!"

Liao Xiaofu rubbed his eyes and nodded vigorously, and was led by his elder brother to the familiar small courtyard.First, I passed an incomplete threshold, and when I entered the courtyard, I saw a little girl bending over to scatter grass seeds to feed the chickens. The little girl was also stunned for a while, and was yelled at by the elder brother, and she threw down the dustpan He stumbled and ran towards this side.Maybe it's because she just started combing her hair, and she tied up an irregular girl's bun, but after running around, it loosened.

There was a lot of movement in the yard, which naturally alarmed the people in the house.I also saw a scholar-like person lift the curtain, and he was holding a boy who was no higher than his thighs.The little scholar knew Liao Xiaofu better than Liao Zimeng, put down the child in his arms and exclaimed, and called out his younger brother's name.

"Xiaofu! It's really you!" Liao Yulin has been studying in simple terms for many years, and his strength is much lighter than that of his elder brother. Naturally, he is not so vigorous when he hugs his younger brother. Arrived? I've been looking forward to your return with a letter from home day and night, but I never thought I could bring you back! Where's my little sister? Come here and call someone!"

The little girl who fed the chickens just now must be Liao Yiyi. She was not sensible when the third brother left. She didn't know what Liao Xiaofu did this time, so she didn't cry so many sad tears. She only knew what the brothers often mentioned The third elder brother came back and hurried forward, tiptoeing to reach Liao Xiaofu's face.

"Hello third brother!"

"Okay! Everything is good! The little girl has combed her hair!"

Liao Xiaofu couldn't speak for a long time, he hugged his family and looked left and right, the joy of reunion confused his mind, he had already forgotten the narrow escape in the palace, and he was reluctant to let go of anyone .After a while, the knee suddenly became hot, and something fell on the lap, and when I looked down, it turned out to be the thin and small child.

"This... whose child is this?"

"This is... this is the eldest brother's child." Liao Zimeng was less than [-] years old, and his skin was as dark as running mountains all the year round, but he was distinguished from the appearance of his second and third brothers. He was not so daughter-like, but his face Embarrassed, he lowered his head and patted the back of the child's head, "Wen Wu, call someone quickly."

The little doll didn't know who to look for, but felt that the family had never been so lively, and followed Liao Yiyi's appearance and called third brother.

"This child...what is his name, third brother? This is your little uncle!" Liao Zimeng picked up the child, his eyes darkened, "This is the child of the eldest brother. He is almost three years old now, but he is a little stupid and doesn't speak well. Yes, your second brother is teaching. Eldest brother, I don’t understand poetry and books, I can only do chores, and Yulin gave the child a nickname, Liao Wenwu, I hope he will be both civil and military in the future, let’s see how good he is.”

"Big brother... Big brother is married? How come you haven't met my sister-in-law?" Liao Xiaofu didn't think the child was stupid, but just obedient.Most eunuchs like children, because they will never have children of their own in this life, even the most ruthless Grand Duke is soft on children.

"Your sister-in-law is the woman I rescued in the mountain stream of Malan Mountain. The family took her all the way to escape. The road here is bad for bandits, and both parents were killed... She was also defiled by gangsters. I feel sorry for you. She was helpless, and her family was in trouble, so I took her home for treatment... She was a good woman, seeing that I was alone with my brothers and sisters, and there was no one to take care of my family, so she was willing to stay and marry me. Is it my fate that I should not have Fortunately, she let go when this child was born."

Liao Zimeng looked at the incense sticks in the house, and there stood a not expensive tablet with a row of small characters engraved on it: My wife Qi's boudoir name Yingsheng Xilian.Liao Xiaofu took a closer look and found that the elder brother must have carved this word himself. The rules for writing tablets are completely wrong, but it is full of the husband's deep affection for his dead wife.

Looking to the side, why is there still a memorial tablet?Liao Xiaofu's eyes widened after just a glance, and he couldn't even catch his breath.What other words on the tablet are already blurred, only to see that there are two words as heavy as a thousand catties engraved in it, Liao Zhen.

Miss?Eldest sister... died?

The prince changed into the brocade clothes of a third-rank guard, with a knife on his waist, and his forehead was tied high, showing a heroic appearance.The bodyguard's brocade clothes did not have loose sleeves like the prince's robes, and the cuffs were tied tightly with a drawstring, so the broken backs of the hands were all exposed.The bodyguard who was released just now to inquire about Zhuangzi's news has returned, guarding the prince's right side, and talking carefully as he walked.

"Your Highness guessed right. The brother who inquired about the news came back and reported that this small Liangzhuang was indeed moved from the whole village on the west side of Mount Mal. It wasn't blocking any river, but the deputy envoy of the Salt Transportation Department in the west. He fell in love with the feng shui at the bottom of the mountain, and bought the county magistrate privately. The county magistrate took a lot of benefits, and simply ordered people to publicize that it blocked the river, and drove the people from Xiaoliangzhuang over there."

"A civil servant of the fifth rank, and another of the seventh rank, dare to play tricks at the foot of the imperial city?" Qi Mo had never walked such a muddy road, always paying attention to his feet, lamenting the plight of the place.

"This...Your Highness doesn't know something." The guard was dressed in a strong outfit, and the wind was blowing under his feet. This person was the guard who sent the prince to the last journey in his previous life, and his name was Zhang Guangzhi.Qi Mo thought of his kindness in his previous life, so he took him for his own use early this time.

"Why don't you know?" Qi Mo asked, already thinking about the Salt Transport Division in his mind.If you want to recover, you must first have a treasury, pruning contacts, building hidden stakes, and withdrawing troops to buy and sell, all of which are spent with real money.

"Since Your Highness asked, the minister said directly... Although this place is not far from the imperial city, the more remote the village is, the more dignified the local government officials are than the emperor's oral orders, because the remote corners far away from the emperor are all relying on the mountains. No one dares to rebel against parents and officials.”

"Very good, you can send someone to keep an eye on this Yan Yunsi. But you can find out other things? Is the Liao family still alive?"

"Yes. I know that His Highness is inquiring about Eunuch Liao's life experience. I don't need to be suspicious, and I don't need to be suspicious. I found out that there are indeed two elder brothers and a sister in Eunuch Liao's family, but there is no sister he mentioned. "Zhang Guangzhi moved away the guards behind him, and said in a dark voice: "I went to another house to inquire again, and then I realized that Eunuch Liao is really pitiful. Every year, people send unsupported children to the palace. Does Your Highness know that this is not related to murder? There are as many little eunuchs in the palace as there are fish in the Jinyao Pond, so what if they die? Your Highness has seen hundreds of koi die, has there been any waves?"

Hearing that Qi Mo was upset, he glared at Zhang Guangzhi, this guard is good at everything but his mouth is too straight, and he never taboos about death or death.

"Tsk, let me get down to business, what carp are you talking about! What's going on at Xiao Fuzi's house?"

"Your Highness, atonement!" Zhang Guangzhi smacked Qian'er secretly with his finger, and continued: "The person who took in the child that year came, and the Liao family was originally going to the second boy, that is, the second brother, Eunuch Liao. The second brother loves the younger brother. Who doesn't know that there are little father-in-laws who are thrown from the palace to mass graves every day, so they leave without warning. It's just that Eunuch Liao is a genius. Liao Yulin had already passed the scientific examination that year and was a scholar. ... Guan Qiaochen among them couldn't figure it out, anyway, Eunuch Liao took the place of his second brother and left with Ren Yazi overnight."

It turned out to be so!Qi Mo clenched his hands at the same time, thinking that Xiao Fuzi was absolutely unwilling to be persecuted by his family, no wonder he said he was willing.

"Where did his elder sister go? But married, is she still in the Zhuangzi?" Qi Mo knew that Xiao Fuzi had a heart for his elder sister, so he hurriedly asked, if she could be settled properly, then the little thing would stop grabbing her. Heart scratching lungs up and down.

"Your Highness, this, this really has to be hidden from Eunuch Liao. The old man in the village said that the Liao family went to a daughter several years ago. I guess... Maybe it is Liao Zhen. Liao Yulin is probably the same because he is anxious to get into the palace. I want to raise some money for my elder sister's medicine. Liao Zhen got whooping cough that year. This whooping cough is a disease of the rich. It is good for the daughter of a rich family to get it and take care of it. Only those who have exhausted their hearts and lungs can't be cured. Take Liao Gonggong to the cleansing place Ren Yazi is in Zhuangzi, and it is said that half clean can get ten taels, and if it is completely clean, it can be given ten taels more. If it is agreed to get back 20 taels of silver, in the end I don’t know how to get it, Ren Yazi It is said that the Liao family boy cut... the thing was cut and he almost died in it, and he spent a lot of medicine money, so he only brought back a few taels. Presumably, Liao Gonggong's sister went there at that time..."

"You didn't say such a big thing earlier!"

Qi Mo had a bad heart, and wanted to punch Zhang Guangzhi and forget it.This guard is really stupid, and he doesn't know what to choose when he answers.No wonder Chen Baishuang loved him more, no wonder Liao Xiaofu didn't even dare to relieve him when he was serving him, no wonder he frightened the child when he was making trouble on the bed that day, now all these things are all figured out, just because He is different from ordinary eunuchs.

His body is completely clean.

It is expected that Xiao Fuzi endured hardships in the palace in the past few years because of his family.He said that family letters are not allowed in the palace for less than a few years, presumably because he didn't know that the eldest sister had gone.Today he ran back full of joy, and if he knew that he had suffered so much and failed to redeem Ajie's life, wouldn't it be half his life again!

As for the man's teeth, Qi Mo gritted his teeth fiercely, he will definitely not let him go lightly!

"Your Highness, be careful!" Zhang Guangzhi knew that he was stupid, so he ran along with Qi Mo, and saw a big locust tree in the distance. The courtyard door was open, and there were a few people standing inside. It wasn't Mr. Liao who surrounded him. .

Qi Mo had a bad heart, he must have come late, and rushed into the courtyard regardless.More than a dozen third-class guards rushed in following the prince, and the small loess courtyard was filled with brocade-clothed guards in a moment of splendor.

"Little Fuzi!" Qi Mo didn't care about other things, and directly pulled him into his arms.He stretched out his hand to touch it, and the child didn't cry. He always loved to cry but now he didn't cry.

Liao Xiaofu raised his face indifferently, his face was pale, but every breath was heavy.Holding a wooden tablet in his hand, he didn't say a word, just staring at the lettering on it, as if he was a person who was extremely cold and shivering.

"If you want to cry, you can cry." At this point, Qi Mo is not afraid that he will cry, but he is afraid that he will stop crying. After all this, the child has grown up in one day.Such a desperate appearance without tears when he was driven to a desperate situation was very similar to the eight thousand years old that year, which made people's hearts ache and sore.

Liao Xiaofu seemed to be hiding in Qi Mo's arms but his soul was no longer there, leaving only an empty shell.It took him a while to let go, and there was a shallow gash on his lower lip, which he bit out by himself.

"Your Highness." Liao Xiaofu held the tablet to his heart, but couldn't get warm. He looked up at Qi Mo and said to himself, "Sister is gone, but I don't know."

It must be that the man had deducted the money and cut off the news, thinking that Liao Xiaofu would not live for a few years, and the matter was unknown.Qi Mo has never been so eager for power and the throne as he is now. Only if he has monstrous power can he keep the person around him without any worries.

"Don't be afraid. Sister is not here, but Gu is still here." Qi Mo said against his thin ear in a voice that only two people could hear clearly, and also added a fate talisman to himself, "You and I have suffered so much. , from today onwards, Gu will have to get it back!"

The author has something to say: There is a cute question about whether whooping cough can be fatal. Doujiang also checked the information before writing, so I will answer it~

In ancient times, pertussis was also known as "Tianxiao", because the cause of the infection is unknown.It's not a terminal illness, and you won't die if you see a doctor and take medicine within three months, so it's not a big problem to put it in a rich family, and follow the doctor's advice to recuperate.

There is now a vaccine against whooping cough, so adults cannot be exposed to the virus, and children under the age of five can recover after getting sick and seeing a doctor.In ancient times, there was no vaccine, and the elderly and the infirm would all be infected. After the onset of the disease, there was a high probability that it would turn into pneumonia or encephalitis, and the mortality rate was very high.

The reason why Liao Zhen was arranged to suffer from whooping cough instead of tuberculosis was due to environmental factors.If it is whooping cough, the family members only need to gather enough silver taels to grab the medicine and they will not die.This is also the reason why the Liao family wanted to earn this clean money when they had nowhere to go.If tuberculosis is diagnosed at the initial consultation, there is no need to spend money on the medicine. Not only can it not be cured, but the person has to be carried far away or even buried alive to avoid infection.

Thank you, cute, for asking the question seriously, okay?
