Chapter Eleven True and False and Auntie

Hegu was also exhausted. She didn't feel Zhang Shiyan put her on the bed and held her beside him to sleep. Perhaps it was because he had been sleeping outdoors for many years. Hegu's sleep was very short. Two or three hours was enough. Three hours was enough.

It is easy to wake up after two hours.

"Where are you going?" Hegu felt someone changing clothes next to the bed. This familiar feeling seemed to go back to a few years ago when she was still in Zhang Mansion, as if they had never been separated.

"Go to the school grounds to pick up my son and take him home." Zhang Shiyan just said lightly, put on a close-fitting light jacket and went out.

Listening to his footsteps walking away, He Gu lay on his bed and emptied her head, "Anxun...will get home safely..." She thought so, but still felt uneasy. She got up from the bed and sighed.

Zhi placed a change of clothes on the screen next to the bed. Hegu changed her clothes as before and asked Mu Songpei, a scholar in the family's cabinet, to take her to the school grounds.

Song Pei had not seen He Gu for many years, but he was very happy when he saw her. "Miracle doctor, Song just came back from the south of the Yangtze River. On the way back, he heard the news that you were back. He was very happy and was preparing to go find you..." He Gu

He interrupted his words by raising his hands and bowing, "Mr. Song, your master is having a confrontation with the Liu family at the school field outside the county today. Can you take me with you?"

Song Pei was stunned. In the past, he and his aunt had always looked down on military strategists fighting for power and killing, so why did they want to watch it in person now?

"Of course," Song Pei led a team of generals, "Can the miracle doctor learn equestrian skills now?"

"I still don't know how. I'd better take the carriage." He Gu shook her head.

Outside the school grounds, there was no loud battle with gongs, drums, and horns as Hegu had imagined. Zhang Shiyan alone, with three or two light knights, rode on horseback and faced a group of people across the Jiuqu River. The Zhang and Liu clans

They are old enemies, fighting from father to son, winning or losing.

Zhang Shiyan was astride the horse, his posture was straight and upright, neither arrogant nor impetuous. He shouted to Liu Cong: "Give me back my son, and I will not destroy your Liu family." There was no arrogance or intimidation in his tone, just like this

It's just a fact, as if I'm offering you the final favorable terms.

The more calm and domineering this person is, the more displeased Mr. Liu is. "You sound so arrogant?" Liu Cong disdains, "How many days can Mr. Zhang live? How dare you bark in front of me?"

Liu Cong was proud, "Are you going to kneel in front of me and call me 'Master'?" He smiled wildly, which made Zhang Shiyan tighten the reins in his hands.

"Come..." Liu Cong shouted, "Bring them mother and son..." Mother and son? Zhang Shiyan was puzzled. He and his aunt were in the house, so why did another aunt come to his house?

This dog thief Liu Cong was still a human being. Perhaps he was afraid that neglecting her mother and son would offend Zhang Shiyan. The coachman came from behind the formation with his horse, opened the curtain, invited the "aunt" and the children out of the carriage, and stood in front of Zhang Shiyan.

What Liu Cong got off the horse was the nun and a three-year-old child. This "nun" had the same figure as the nun. They both wore a plain linen skirt. The child she held in her hand innocently and cutely licked her hand.

Sweet candy, don’t cry or make trouble.

"What?" Liu Cong asked slyly, "Do you think the 'miracle doctor' in your house is a real miracle doctor?" As part of the plan, Liu Cong planned to cooperate with He Guli and put Zhang Shiyan to death, so that He Gu could exchange for Anxun.

Kang Jian said, "She is the masterpiece of my Liu family!"

"The real 'Father' is here with me!"

Liu Cong proudly raised his head and looked down at Zhang Shiyan, "If you don't believe it, I took off Aunt He's kerchief, just take a look." Then he swung his sword to cut off the kerchief on "He Aunt"'s face, "What are you doing?"

See if the 'miracle doctor' in your own family is a fake?"

This woman was exactly the same as his aunt three years ago, with a thin chin, porcelain-like soft skin, and pure eyes. Zhang Shiyan frowned slightly.

Song Pei was so shocked that he grabbed the dagger at his waist and asked the woman next to him: "Who are you?!"

Hegu couldn't explain clearly, but her appearance had changed, and now it was her true appearance. She raised her hand to untie the scarf from her bun, revealed her true appearance in front of Song Pei, and explained:

"Three years ago, I was in disguise, and that woman was what I looked like after I disguised myself. Liu Cong's condition for letting me go was that I should give up my disguise. This is my true appearance."

"My master taught me how to disguise myself. In troubled times, I was an abandoned baby with no household registration and unknown origins, so my master asked me to imitate the appearance of a deceased woman to avoid inspections and human traffickers," He Gu said.

It was true, but there was no way to prove her identity.

Song Pei had always admired He Gu and treated her with courtesy, but the strange woman with an oval face in front of him looked like a completely different person except that her body shape and voice were similar to He Gu's.

"You come with me to the general." After hesitation, Song Pei pulled out his dagger and led her out of the formation, walking to the front of the two armies.

When He Gu walked under Zhang Shiyan's horse hooves, Zhang Shiyan pretended not to care and looked at the woman in Song Pei's hand, his heart pounding. Who is this woman?

Is she really a spy sent by Liu Cong? He hugged her to sleep last night and didn't even notice anything unusual?

If she really is an aunt, why does her appearance change so much?

"Anxun..." Auntie saw her son approaching and couldn't help calling him by his nickname. The child ignored him and hid under "Auntie's" skirt to eat sweets. Zhang Shiyan did not move.

Liu Cong saw that the illusion he had created had been placed in front of Zhang Shiyan. He was still unmoved, so he began to provoke the general and pointed his sword at "He Gu" who was dismounted: "I want the customs clearance talisman from Hexi. If you give it to me,

, I will return your wife and children."

"Otherwise... don't blame me for splattering blood on the spot. You didn't even have to take the regret medicine!"

The woman under Liu Cong's horse had her eyes as calm as a nun's. She just opened her red lips and said: "Shi Yan...save me..."

Zhang Shiyan was shaken, and he knew what was going on.

"I only want my wife and my son will be kept with you. When I think about it, I will naturally give you the military talisman of Hexi. You can give me a good life and serve my son well." Zhang Shiyan said.

Liu Cong's original plan was that Zhang Shiyan would angrily kill Xizuo and his aunt who lurked into Zhang's house, so that he could kill two birds with one stone and get rid of the aunt. Zhang Shiyan's blood poison could not be cured, which killed his life. Secondly, he could get Hexi's military talisman.

Open up the Hexi Corridor and the Liu family will dominate.

Zhang Shiyan "signaled" Song Pei to return the "strange" woman in his hand to Liu Cong.

Song Pei escorted He Gu over to exchange. By the Jiuqu Stream, Liu Cong's men escorted "He Gu". The child dragged his mother's hand and followed him, unwilling to let go. He Gu took a step forward and thought that he would come back this time.

The Liu family has set up camp...

Just when the two armies were exchanging hostages, Song Pei pulled He Gu back with one hand and stabbed the woman with the same appearance as He Gu with a short blade.

Anxun actually ran to the Zhang family by himself, holding unmelted candy in his mouth, and ran as hard as he could to the other side. He Gu thought that his son would not recognize him because of his changed appearance.

Sure enough, the son ran towards Zhang Shiyan... without recognizing her as his mother.

Hundreds of archers stood on the city wall of the school grounds, bow strings tightened. Liu Cong saw this and attacked hard. He was at the bottom and Zhang Shiyan was at the top. Not only would both lose, but he himself had little chance of winning. He did not dare to fight easily, so he immediately shouted

Stop the heavy cavalry and do not attack.

Zhang Shiyan looked at the little baby who looked like a glutinous rice dumpling flowing with the water of Jiuqu River. He ran towards him regardless of it. He almost burst into tears. He turned over and dismounted, squatting half beside the horse. The glutinous rice dumpling staggered towards Zhang Shiyan and took out his hand.

The milk candy in his mouth was still drooling, and he said seriously: "Mother asked me to go back to Zhang Mansion to follow my father..."

Then he added: "This is what my mother told me, I must return to Zhang Mansion..."

The three-year-old child only knew what his mother told him, but he didn't know why. "How did you know I was your father?" Zhang Shiyan asked him. Looking at his child, Zhang Shiyan's eyes were filled with honey, "Mother said daddy."

You are good-looking, and you are the prettiest here..." His little hand, sticky with sugar threads, pointed at Zhang Shiyan's face.

The general had never held a child before, so he picked up his child from the ground and said, "Bump on the horse, daddy will take you to the carriage." Without looking back, he hugged his son and got into his carriage, leaving Beigong in his arms.

This tall and sturdy man stands on the hilltop of the school field.

Song Pei sent He Gu back safely, "I believe that the girl must have had her own difficulties before she showed her face to others. Now that the truth has been revealed, my lord may need you to explain." After all, the person I have loved for many years suddenly changed.

He made a face, and he was afraid that Zhang Shiyan would not be able to accept it and misunderstanding would occur.

Under the escort of Song Pei, the aunt climbed into the carriage. As soon as she got in, Anxun got into the aunt's arms and shouted: "Mother... the baby's clothes are soaked, please help me quickly."

I'll bake it dry..." How could this child have such an exquisite mind?

"Didn't you recognize me just now?" He Gu was surprised. She picked up Anxun and took off his wet shoes. The child smiled naively, "Anxun already knew that she was not my mother..."

"How do you know?" Auntie He put Anxun's little feet in her hands to warm him up.

Anxun lay in Hegu's arms and explained: "Because she doesn't have the smell of mother..." "My mother has a smell, a bitter, sweet smell, which no one else has..."

"So Anxun has known for a long time that she is not my mother..." Although the child is young, he seems to understand everything.

Hegu thought, "Bitter-bitter-sweet taste?".
