In the cave, the sky was dim, Fang Sanduo and Tan Wanjun were still sleeping soundly, only Fang Yu stretched out and sat up carefully from the wooden bed.
Since the foundation of his body was replenished by the elixir, coupled with the original internal cultivation level, Fang Yu's energy recovery efficiency has been improved by several levels.
Once my physical fitness improves, I can no longer sleep in.
After regaining my energy, I couldn't fall asleep once I woke up, so I had no choice but to get up.
Looking outside the cave, perhaps because the heavy rain has stopped, there are now far fewer insects, snakes, ants and the like that come to the cave to take shelter.
Today I caught two small frogs and an earthworm outside the cave.
Obviously, after the heavy rain, the benefits of waiting for food to be delivered to your door have begun to disappear.
Open the fence door and put the frogs and earthworms into the pit as usual.
After Fang Yu went out to stretch her body for a while, she walked towards the water pool.
After Fang Yu left, the only sound left in the cave was the sound of even breathing.
But not long after, another person woke up from his deep sleep.
"Hmm~"
A weak, hoarse yet somewhat mature female voice came from Tan Wanjun's side.
Dai Yuanpei's eyelids trembled up and down for a few seconds, then slowly opened his eyelids, revealing slightly confused eyes inside.
I am
Dai Yuanpei's mind went blank at this time, he had forgotten everything, his brain was like a lump, and he couldn't think of anything.
Due to the long period of deep sleep and environmental factors, Dai Yuanpei felt as if something was stuck to his eyelids after opening his eyes, which made his eyes uncomfortable.
He stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes. After removing several lumps of eye droppings, his vision returned to normal.
She turned her head and looked to her side in confusion.
On the left is an unknown woman, still sleeping.
Because her mind was blank at this time, she did not react even if she saw an unknown person next to her.
Turning to the right, he saw a very familiar little boy lying next to him.
this
Turning her eyes, she saw the familiar girl next to the little boy again. It was as if something was about to come out of her mind, and her originally lumpy brain seemed to be about to explode at this moment.
"Aha"
Dai Yuanpei reached out to cover his forehead. After a stinging pain, all the memories that had been buried deep came to mind.
After a while, she remembered everything.
But all her memories only lasted until the moment she fell into coma, and the subsequent memories stopped abruptly.
Dai Yuanpei stood up carefully, then turned around and came to Tan Wanjun's side. He stretched out his hand and gently shook Tan Wanjun's body, trying to wake her up.
Although Tan Wanjun fell asleep, it was obviously impossible for her to sleep deeply in this place. As soon as Dai Yuanpei's hand touched Tan Wanjun, Tan Wanjun was already awake.
She immediately grasped the hilt of the iron sword in her arms and was about to pull the sword out of its sheath. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure.
"wear"
She didn't expect that Aunt Pei, who was originally unconscious, would appear in front of her so cutely!
As soon as the hand holding the sword loosened, and she was about to scream out in joy, her mouth was covered by Aunt Pei.
"Shhh"
After Dai Yuanpei made a hissing gesture to Tan Wanjun, Tan Wanjun nodded, and then Dai Yuanpei asked her to get up slowly. After she got up, Dai Yuanpei reached out and hugged Tan Qing, who was sleeping like a dead pig.
, the two of them quietly walked out of the cave.
Tan Qing was still sound asleep.
After exiting the cave, the cold air outside made the two of them instantly shiver and wake up immediately.
Tan Qing, who was held in Dai Yuanpei's arms, also shrank and buried his head in a soft place. He seemed to feel the warmth, and his frown relaxed.
Continue to sleep soundly.
Dai Yuanpei looked at it and took Tan Wanjun to the back of the cave for a while. After he was far away from the cave, he quietly asked Tan Wanjun, who looked puzzled, about what happened during this period.
Tan Wanjun could understand Dai Yuanpei's caution at this time, but she was a bit confused about being so cautious.
Of course she didn't know that for Dai Yuanpei, she originally felt that she should definitely die.
As a result, Mi Mihuhu woke up and found that she was not dead.
Then the three people were not in the same carriage, but in a cave, and there was a middle-aged couple in ragged clothes next to them.
Dai Yuanpei's first thought was that they were imprisoned in the cave by someone.
Don't blame her for thinking that.
In fact, the identity of the two children next to her had to make her think carefully.
Tan Wanjun, the legitimate daughter of Prince Chang's Mansion and Princess Qingyun who was personally consecrated by the Emperor of Chu State, would be taken to Kyoto to celebrate the new year together every year, which shows his love for her.
Tan Qing, the young prince of Prince Chang's Palace, the true successor of Prince Chang, will immediately become the young prince of Prince Chang's Palace and become the top group of people in the Chu Kingdom as soon as he reaches the crown.
The noble status of the two of them made Dai Yuanpei, the second wife of Prince Chang's Mansion, have to be so vigilant.
If something happens to these two people, the entire Prince Chang's Mansion will be in trouble.
In this generation, Prince Chang's direct sons and grandsons are the only one with such a small population. Once something happens to these two people, let's not mention the impact on Prince Chang's palace.
It can cause uproar in both the government and the opposition.
After all, this is Prince Chang’s Mansion!
The former Chu Emperor's one-word king Tan Yuanchang's forces guarded Xiliang with 200,000 Xiliang iron troops under his command.
At this time, there was suddenly no heir.
According to the customs of Chu State, when the time comes, Prince Chang's Mansion will adopt one of the branch families to inherit the throne.
Once things come to this point, the entire Chu State will be shaken.
In the eyes of politicians, Prince Chang's Mansion was a powerful force comparable to half of the Chu Kingdom.
No, in other words, just from the perspective of military conditions, the entire Chu State's military force is based on Prince Chang's Mansion.
Such a big cake is enough to make them break their heads just to take a bite!
It was precisely because of this that Dai Yuanpei had to act like this.
Although Tan Wanjun was the legitimate daughter, she was born as a daughter after all and was not destined to be the king. Tan Mingyuan did not teach much about these political things.
For his eldest daughter, he only hopes that she can spend her life in peace and support her husband and raise children.
And Tan Qing is still young, so he hasn’t been exposed to these things yet.
This made the two of them not have much awareness of the importance of their identities, or in other words, they really did not expect that they could have such weight.
But still confused, Tan Wanjun still told Dai Yuanpei everything she had experienced during this period.
Dai Yuanpei asked while listening.
Tan Wanjun naturally said everything she knew.
It wasn't until he couldn't ask anything anymore that Dai Yuanpei began to think about it carefully.
Tan Wanjun looked at Tan Qing who was still sleeping soundly. After all, Dai Yuanpei had just recovered from a long illness. It was already a bit difficult to hold him at this time, so Tan Wanjun reached out and took Tan Qing's hand.
After taking Tan Qing, Tan Wanjun patted the sleeping Tan Qing's little face a few times.
Tan Qing frowned.
I took a few more shots.
Tan Qing pouted.
He pinched his butt hard.
Tan Qing opened his eyes in anger!
Then when he saw my sister's smiling face, the original angry look immediately disappeared, and a flattering smile appeared on her lips.
"Come down quickly!"
Tan Wanjun did not spoil Tan Qing.
In Prince Chang's Mansion, Tan Qing was most afraid of Uncle Li, and the second most afraid was his sister.
Because when these two people beat him, they were very ruthless and could not be offended.
Tan Qing got down from Tan Wanjun's arms in one fell swoop, and then saw Dai Yuanpei beside him, who was watching the friendly interaction between the two siblings, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
"Aunt Pei!
Tan Qing shouted excitedly, then stretched out his arms to hug Dai Yuanpei's slim waist, and buried his head in her abdomen.
Rubbing happily, Tan Qing's eyes suddenly turned red.
"Aunt Pei, I thought I would never see you again."
Tan Qing's tone was choked with sobs, and his true feelings were revealed. It was obvious that he also loved Dai Yuanpei very much.
Seeing Tan Qing like this, Dai Yuanpei's eyes instantly turned red.
She didn't expect that Tan Qing would have such feelings for her.
After all, she was the second mother. Tan Qing's biological mother passed away early, and Tan Mingyuan only married her later.
She still vaguely remembered that when she first entered the profession, Tan Qing and Tan Wanjun were deeply resistant to her.
Tan Wanjun is older, but she hasn't shown it too obviously.
Tan Qing was only 6 years old at that time, and he was ignorant. At that time, he hated Dai Yuanpei.
Throwing stones, spitting on her, throwing her clothes out, all these things.
Although he received a lot of beatings because of this, and even because he was a child, he didn't know whether to go out of his way in some things. He allowed his temper to cause trouble, but Tan Wanjun couldn't stand it anymore.
When he was making trouble, Tan Wanjun kept silently observing. Through observation, she found that "Aunt Pei" seemed to really care about and be close to them.
So, when Tan Qing spat at Aunt Pei again, he received a heavy beating from his sister.
After that, the relationship between Tan Wanjun and Dai Yuanpei gradually became closer.
Then, Tan Qing found that her family was isolated and helpless.
Even my sister, who was just watching, later joined in beating him.
Later it gradually stopped being like this.
After all, everyone is beaten.
Then, after several years of hard work, Dai Yuanpei finally made Tan Qing accept her with her patience and true feelings.
But no matter what, in Dai Yuanpei's heart, she was still afraid that Tan Qing would have a grudge against her.
Although this narrow escape was thrilling, judging from the performance of the two of them, Dai Yuanpei knew that he had truly lived in their hearts. How could this not make her cry.
It’s not easy to be a stepmother, especially if you really want to be a good stepmother
"Huh? Why did you come out? Why are you crying?"
Just when Tan Qing and Dai Yuanpei were holding each other and weeping silently, Fang Yu's voice suddenly came from behind them.
Several people couldn't help but look back.
At this time, Fang Yu was not far behind them, looking at them with confusion.
Seeing Fang Yu's appearance at this time, Tan Wanjun opened her mouth in surprise.
Is this the mountain man from yesterday?!
Tan Wanjun's mind flashed back to what she looked like when she saw Fang Yu yesterday.
At that time, Fang Yu had been busy for a day. When she arrived at the river bank, she was covered in mud. There was mud everywhere on her body, and her hair was caked on her head. She looked worse than a beggar.
At this moment, Fang Yu was naked from the waist up, wearing only a pair of gray linen trousers. His originally scattered hair was tied back with grass roots, revealing his complete face.
There are still some water stains on his body, which are not like sweat stains, but more like water stains after bathing.
These water stains on his naked upper body perfectly displayed his muscle lines, which had both a wild impact and an artistic sense of lines. This made Tan Wanjun, who had never seen such a scene before, feel his heartbeat.
It jumped suddenly, and my nose seemed to be a little blocked.
When she saw Tan Wanjun looking at her in a daze, Fang Yu noticed that after taking a shower, his top had just been washed and not yet dry, so he was holding it in his hand. He wanted to wait until it was dry before putting it on.
At this moment, there were two girls staring at him. Although he didn't care, in order to prevent himself from being thought of as a deliberate hooligan, he quickly put the linen clothes back on and tied up the ropes.
Siluke
After seeing Fang Yu put on her clothes, Tan Wanjun's eyes flashed with something strange.
I just feel pity in my heart
Wait! Tan Wanjun! What are you thinking about?
Tan Wanjun never expected that she still had such thoughts in her heart, and her face instantly turned red with shame.
"You must be the gentleman who saved us yesterday, right? My benefactor, please bow to me."
Having said that, Dai Yuanpei knelt down without hesitation, kowtowed to Fang Yu.
"Why!"
Fang Yu was far away, and when she came forward, she had already finished praying.
Tan Wanjun and Tan Qing next to them bowed cautiously to Fang Yu.
Their status is different. Even if they are saved, they cannot kneel down and can only bow instead.
Normally, Dai Yuanpei was not allowed to kneel, but when she knelt down at this moment, it was partly to thank Tan Wanjun and the others. In this case, it was also in line with etiquette to kneel down.
Kneeling down and worshiping Fang Yu was a bit unbearable, but bowing was okay. However, the cautious expressions of the two of them always made him feel like they were hanging on the wall.
Fortunately, the two of them just bowed and nothing else happened.
After listening to Tan Wanjun's story, Dai Yuanpei also understood that they were not imprisoned by anyone, but were really saved by the person in front of them.
Moreover, judging from his description, this person is quite proficient in the knowledge and skills of mountain survival, and his breadth of knowledge is among the best among those Tan Wanjun has met.
You must know that she is the princess, and among her acquaintances, there are many capable people and strangers. To be able to become a leader among these people is an extraordinary ability.
Therefore, after learning that it was all a misunderstanding and that the expert in front of her was kind-hearted, she made a decision after some simple thoughts.
Although she knew that this decision actually had some meaning of repaying kindness with enmity.
But if it can be completed successfully, it will be repaid a hundredfold.
Although it is difficult, now, this is the only way she can do it.
For Tan Wanjun and Tan Qing, even if she risked her life, she must let them return to the palace safely.
Only in this way can we give an explanation to Mingyuan.
