Chapter 573 One-year-old Hungry Ghost Festival [Pink 160+ August Debt Cleared]
July fire.
The grassland is the most beautiful season of the year. The sky is as blue as if washed by water, and the brightness is so bright that people dare not look directly at it. The Gesang flowers bloom just in the right place, with small clusters of brightness dotted in the thick greenery. They are the most beautiful scenery that the painter cannot replicate.
"Ah, my mother..." A little boy picked a handful of flowers, waved happily, softly and vaguely shouting, and ran quickly towards the young woman not far away.
"Slow down, be careful to fall!" The young woman's face was full of love. In such sunshine, the smiling faces of the mother and son were more moving than the beautiful scenery of the grassland.
But suddenly, a huge black shadow passed by a sound of horse hooves.
The young woman was shocked, but when she saw the person coming, she settled down again. She was a little dissatisfied with the man's actions of jumping off the horse, snatching the child, and putting it on the high horse's back, "What are you doing? He was scared!"
There were tears in the little boy's eyes, and he was about to cry with his little mouth sagging.
But the man stepped forward and stopped her hand that was trying to hold the child, with a strange look of enthusiasm and threat in her eyes.
The young woman finally felt something was wrong, "Zhuoge, what are you going to do?"
Zhuo Ge looked at her. Although he tried his best to keep calm, his voice was still a little urgent, "Brother, I'm missing. It's very likely that he's dead."
What? Changle was surprised, "He died? How did he die? Where did he die? Isn't he in Daliang? How could he be--"
Zhuo Ge raised his eyebrows and smiled threateningly, "It was something he had happened in Daliang. That old guy Borile has come back. He still wanted to hide it, but fortunately I also had an ambush in the capital... Now, the opportunity belongs to me is finally here!"
Changle also wanted to ask what this had to do with her, so Zhuo Ge quickly ordered, "Go back to Daliang immediately. Find your mother and brother, no matter what method you use, try to let your brother sit on the dragon throne!"
Changle stared at him in a daze and spoke for a while. "Are you crazy? How could my brother?"
"Even Zhuo Rilie will die, nothing is impossible!"
Zhuo Ge was obviously completely in a frenzy, "Do you know? The one who is responsible for finding Zhuo Rilie is your younger brother. If he can't find him, he will definitely be treated as an abandoned son by Emperor Daliang to the grassland to apologize. So if he wants to save his life, he must fight for you. And you!"
He looked at Changle with anxious temptation, "Don't you want to be the Great Yan clan on the grassland or even the queen of the whole world?"
Changle was a little scared, took a step back, shook his head, "No, I don't want to. I just want to be an ordinary woman, an ordinary mother. Zhuoge, it's not that I want to pour cold water on you, you can't beat your father. You don't know..."
Zhuo Ge obviously wanted to hear this, "Maybe it was impossible in the past, but it is not certain now. He is old, but I am young. And Zhuo Rilie is dead. Is there any more suitable heirs in the whole grassland than me? Besides, my biological mother is also from the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Logically, she should be at least a princess? Then, what is impossible for me to restore the Zhou Dynasty and live in the world?"
A prince and a concubine born to a slave cannot be granted the princess. But Changle didn't say this, just said, "Then do what you want to do. I don't have that ability and can't help you."
She stepped forward again and wanted to hug the little boy, but Zhuo Ge pushed it away. The child was frightened, and Changle was also frightened.
"What the hell do you want to do? At most I'll be done if I don't become your queen. What else do you want?"
The man's face became a little vicious, "Now, I'm afraid you can't choose."
Look at the son on the horse's back again, "If he knows, his biological mother is actually you..."
"Shut up!" Changle's face turned pale, "Zhuo Ge, I didn't do anything to be sorry for you, right? Do you have to treat me like this?"
Zhuo Ge glanced at her ruthlessly, "Then you just be obedient, otherwise..."
He didn't say anything, but one hand had quietly grabbed the child's belt from behind. Such a young child would fall off the horse immediately with a light push. The consequences would be unimaginable.
Changle looked at the child's pitiful expression that he wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry, and gritted his teeth, "Okay, I promise you, I'll go!"
On the grassland, it was not only Zhuo Ge who received the news.
In a castle that was originally occupied by bandits, Ji Longfeng, who could not find it, was surprised and happy. "Is Zhuo Rilie very likely dead? Did He Xian defect to Chai Rong?"
"Yes, general, so my master specially asked the villain to report the message. If you are willing to cooperate with him, he is willing to help you seize the grassland and take you as the mainstay."
Ji Longfeng thought for a while, "This matter is of great importance. I can't just listen to your words. You go first, and I will contact you when I make a decision."
As soon as this person left, a close brother immediately said, "General, we have been searching for treasures here for so long but there is no clue. Why don't we just cooperate with Chai Rong? Just pretend to agree first, and wait until we take the grassland, then we will then lead the army south and overthrow him."
Ji Longfeng shook his head, "We will think so, but Chai Rong may not think so either. It is not that easy to plot against him. Let me think about it, and think about it more happily."
The confidant brother sighed, "If we can find treasures and recruit troops, why do we need Chai Rong to help? Without Zhuo Rilie, it is better to rely on your talents to unify this grassland?"
When the others walked away, Ji Longfeng had something in his mind, but he never said it.
In fact, he knew the whereabouts of a treasure, but he was always reluctant to take it. But now, is it time to use the treasure?
After all, such a good opportunity may be the last time in his life. If he can unify the grassland, he can attack and defend in the future. When he accumulates strength to fight with Daliang, he may not be able to change his dynasty and become famous throughout the ages.
But now, is it really worth taking this risk?
...
The capital city. July 15th. Zhongyuan Festival.
Every household worships his ancestors and burns paper money along the way to hear the blue smoke left by the storm. No one can avoid joining this ranks.
The same is true in front of the broken garden.
Not only does the main family want to burn it, Nianfu also allows the family members to burn it for their deceased relatives, and do their best to tell everyone to be careful of the fire.
Ah chick!
Xiao Shuzai was not very adapted to such an environment, and she sneezes two times in a row but still couldn't stop.
Bai Xiang said, "Princess, hurry up and take the little master back, don't smoke him. Even now, you can't stand such smoke."
But Nianfu refused. "Let him burn some paper money for Bai Xuan and kowtow, this is what he should do."
But Bai Xiang stopped him and refused to kowtow. He only asked him to burn a bunch of gold ingots, so he asked Nianfu to take him away.
Seeing that the mother and son left, Bai Xiang knelt down sincerely with the whole family and prayed to the sky, "The gods in the sky, the big ghosts and little ghosts passing by. Please bless my county horses to return safely as soon as possible. I've burned money for you..."
Nowadays, as long as someone takes her, she can walk very steadily. She grabbed Nianfu's crony belt and followed her back to the main courtyard. She saw Su Cheng and Du Chuan had already prepared things all over the place. She was waiting for him to catch Zhou.
Compared to the full moon wine, Xiao Shuzai's birthday is pitifully shabby this year.
Except for a few friends who were close to each other, I gave gifts and set up a table at home, but I did nothing.
However, the most important ceremony of catching Zhou must be done. Looking at the dazzling array of hundreds of things, the old lady tried her best to make the most kind smile.
"Little Sauce. Go and grab one of your favorite ones and give it to your mother."

babble!
Xiaoshuzai is much stronger than children of the same age, but she speaks later. So far, except Ah Wu Yi Oh Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye Ye
So he could only open his eyes wide and land on Nianfu's ears. He held the vase high.
On his fucking earlobe, wearing a pair of jade bottle earrings.
Looking back, Su Cheng and Du Chuan both brought a safe knot with a jade bottle hanging on their belts.
There is also the old lady's red sandalwood hairpin, and the hairpin head is also carved in the shape of a bottle.
The whole family was silent.
Nianfu touched his son's fluffy short hair and tried his best to joke, "I know that I'll send flowers to please people. When I grow up, how can I be so great?"
hey-hey.
Xiao Shuzai opened her mouth wide and gave everyone a big smile without hesitation. She pounced on this person and then threw herself on that person to get close to each other, just like sending the brightest sunshine to everyone's heart.
The adults cheered up at the same time and showed a sincere smile.
Then Du Chuan led Xiao Shuzai to the middle of the pile of things, "Little Shuzai, is it good to find one thing here? Find the one you like the most, only choose one. Okay, at most, let you choose two, and try it?"
Xiaoshuzai opened her eyes wide and looked at him for a while, as if she understood what he meant. She began to lower her head and search on the ground.
Because he was still young and tired after standing for a long time, he simply lay down and picked it up one by one. It was hard for Su Cheng to be determined and prepared small items that included almost all the business in this world.
I suppressed the sad thoughts in my heart, and couldn't help but feel a little curious. What exactly is my son trying to catch?
By the river.
A bright moon reflected in the water, and the ripples were split into bright white light like jade belts.
It is not only the Zhongyuan Festival, but also the people on the water have to sacrifice. However, unlike the people on the land, most of their sacrifices are thrown into the river.
The paper-paste gold ingots and other offerings were piled high on small rafts made of bamboo branches, and as they flew out of ashes, they all turned into the surging rivers.
Dou Rongruo was wearing plain clothes and stared at the flower raft she had tied out gradually in the raging fire, sank into the river, with unconcealed sadness in her expression.
The breeze blows up and pieces of paper, like black butterflies flying up and down, and then transforming with the weather. Only her long black hair, strands dancing in the wind, were seen like unstoppable grief, and the heart was sad.
Ouyang Kang didn't know what to say, but after a while, he said, "Please mourn."
Dou Rongruo's eyes were still shining with water, so she didn't turn her face and just said softly, "The wind never stops, and people are not waiting for you. You still have relatives, don't let them down."
Ouyang Kang was silent and suddenly said, "Are you hungry? Why don't we go and eat something? Well... Eat some good and you will be in a good mood. If the deceased has a spirit, I believe I don't want to see you so sad."
Dou Rongruo glanced at him, "This is the worst comforting word I have ever heard."
Ouyang Kang choked and Dou Rongruo said, "But I still have to thank you for comforting me. I'll treat you to eat. What do you want to eat?"
"Then... can I eat noodles?"
