Chapter 804: Small Courtyard
Tang Ning explained: "Aoki Town is not far from here, and after leaving Aoki Town for so many years, I really have some worries, just have time, go back and have a look." ”
After everyone heard this, it suddenly dawned on them that Aoki Town was like a hometown for the emperor, and it was normal for people to want to go back and see after so many years.
Not long after, Lin Xiangnan arrived, and Tang Ning asked with a complicated expression: "General Lin, Fengzhou is not far from Aoki Town, I plan to go to Aoki Town to have a look, and General Lin will go with you, right?" ”
Lin Xiangnan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, the look on his face changed several times, and Aoki Town carried too many memories in his heart.
He and his wife got married in Aoki Town, and it was the young lady and the emperor who allowed them to marry. And the young lady died in Aoki Town due to difficult childbirth.
His father has also taken care of Tang Ning in Aoki Town for more than ten years, in order to protect Tang Ning's safety, he has never set foot in Aoki Town for more than ten years, so father and son have not seen each other for more than ten years.
Now that his father has passed away, thinking of Aoki Town, where his father has lived for more than ten years, the feeling in his heart is really complicated.
But no matter what, I have to take a look, Lin Xiangnan nodded with a complicated expression, and Tang Ning was also a little silent, knowing that he must have remembered the deceased Qingbo.
Tang Ning didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only sigh softly, maybe General Lin didn't need comfort at all.
A group of hundreds of horsemen left the barracks and galloped in the direction of Aoki Town, this road Tang Ning was very familiar with, and he and Qingbo took this road when they left Aoki Town.
At that time, the bits and pieces appeared in front of him again, he waved goodbye, just thinking about going out to play, thinking that he would come back when he had fun, and marry a wife and have children in the town for the rest of his life.
Who would have thought that the boy who left in a dilapidated carriage is now the king!
As we got closer, the surrounding scenery became more and more familiar, and the shadow of Aoki Town was already in front of me, surrounded by peaceful villages, and the sound of the hooves of hundreds of horses hurrying seemed so abrupt.
The people working in the fields looked up at the hundreds of cavalry that suddenly appeared, stunned with a hint of fear.
Tang Ning waved his hand to signal the guards to stop, and ordered, "Wait outside the town." ”
The commander of the secret guard hesitated: "Your Majesty? ”
Tang Ning said with a smile: "With General Lin here, and the Nine Rank masters of the Sword Pavilion, there is no danger to my safety." ”
Mingyue followed in unison, Lin Xiangnan, Wei Qiu, Xiao Twelve and more than a dozen nine-rank masters, as well as a few secret guards of the nine-rank masters drove horses to accompany her.
The small courtyard was on the outskirts of the town, and Tang Ning drove his horse straight to the small courtyard, stepping into the bluestone street, and the sound of horses' hooves echoed in the peaceful street.
Some people from the town saw this group from a distance, but they did not dare to approach it, because they did not know what it was doing.
Tang Ning was very young when he left the town, and he has experienced so much over the years, and he has already changed a lot, and it is difficult for people who are not familiar with him to recognize it, but he just feels a little kind.
Besides, it's been a long time since Tangning left the town, who would have thought that the former boy would come back?
The sound of horses' hooves echoed in the small streets, but it sounded very rhythmic, saying that they were close to home, but Tang Ning, who had entered the edge of the town, suddenly stopped in a hurry, but just moved forward with the reins.
His face looked very calm, but in fact, his heart was quite unsettled. I don't know if the small courtyard is still there, if it is dilapidated.
"You grew up in a town like this, did you?" Mingyue asked incredulously.
Tang Ning smiled slightly: "Yes, I grew up here, isn't it incomparable to Donghai City?" ”
Not to mention that it can't be compared with Donghai City, it can't be compared with Fengzhou, because it's just an ordinary town.
After finishing speaking, Tang Ning, who was originally calm, couldn't help but show a hint of strangeness on his face, because the familiar courtyard was just around the corner in front.
couldn't help but sit down on the war horse, the sound of the horse's hooves became slightly urgent, and when he turned the corner, Tang Ning suddenly reined in the war horse.
The small courtyard appeared in front of him, and the small courtyard was still there, not dilapidated, just like when he left.
This is precisely why Tang Ning suddenly restrained the war horse, because the memories were surging, as if the bits and pieces of the past appeared in front of him again.
The fence was more mottled and luxuriant than before, and he seemed to see a familiar figure sitting on the fence, and under the fence stood a number of bear children, begging him to tell a story.
He looked down this bluestone street, as if he saw a familiar figure, throwing a few big coins in his hand, leisurely walking towards the depths of the town.
It was as if I saw the familiar figure walking with a white and tender tofu with a satisfied face, and saw the figure push open the courtyard door and walk into the small courtyard, put the tofu in the clear water, and then the toes fell on the fence a little lightly, looking at the sunset of the mountain stream, which was waiting for Qingbo to return from hunting.
Tang Ning restrained the war horse in a daze, and the people behind him also stopped, there was silence, and no one made a sound.
Mingyue came to Tang Ning's side, and when she looked at him, she also saw an ordinary courtyard, an ordinary wooden door, an ordinary fence, and three houses made of stone.
This should be the small courtyard where Tang Ning has lived since he was a child, and it looks really ordinary and inconspicuous. However, she remembered an ordinary courtyard, although it was not quite the same as this courtyard, but it was also an ordinary courtyard, and it also carried many happy moments.
However, the most nostalgic thing in his heart is Lin Xiangnan, he has been absent for more than 20 years, and he came here again, and he can imagine the taste in his heart when he sees this familiar courtyard that makes him think about it.
Everyone quietly waited for Tang Ning to come back to his senses, without any impatience, and finally Mingyue asked out loud: "Is this the courtyard where you have lived since childhood?" ”
Tang Ning came back to his senses and nodded with some emotion: "Yes, this is the small courtyard where I have lived since I was a child, but I didn't expect it to be dilapidated, and it looks the same as before." ”
"Let's go, let's go in, I'm the host today!"
Wei Qiu said with a smile: "Now that the emperor is rich all over the world, the emperor is the host when he goes there!" ”
This horse is at a good level, and Tang Ning smiled: "But this is different, this is my home when I was a child." ”
Tang Ning got off his horse, the lock in front of the small courtyard was already rusty, Tang Ning reached out and took out a very ordinary key.
With a click, the door lock was opened, and Tang Ning went south and north through life and death, and now he has ascended the throne as the emperor of the world, however, the key to this small courtyard is still by his side.
