The thunder roared, and a white light split out in the night, illuminating the dark night sky at once, and the rumbling sound of the noisy dialect couldn't sleep, and I felt that there was the sound of an explosion next to my ears, and I was in a daze until I got up the next day.

A small room in the Rongcheng Yamen at this time was full of people, all of them had solemn expressions, but no one spoke, accompanied by bursts of thunder, quiet and weird, and the bright light shone on people's faces, flashing.

"It's changed, you're all from here, let's spread out the words and say, let's find another way out as soon as possible, the two sides are fighting, and it's just us who die. ”

The old man who sat at the top stood up, propped himself on the ground with his crutches, and shook his body, and the wooden crutches poked into the ground with a dull sound.

"That's... Your Majesty, he... The Queen Mother..."

The person behind him spoke, with a dumb voice, and asked after considering his words, but unfortunately he only spit out a few words in the language that had just come out, and he was blocked back by a cold look, "Lord Zhao, everyone has their own ambitions, how to choose yourself." ”

The light words floated to the ears, and the shock was no less than the thunder outside the house, the door was opened, the old man was helped out by the people around him, and the door was squeaked shut again.

"Lord Zhao, what should we do, we... How good are we? Seeing the old man gone, everyone else stared at the man who had just spoken, as if they were staring at the backbone.

Lord Zhao sat down on the chair, holding the handle of the pear blossom wooden chair, his hand was very tight, as if he was trying to suppress the panic in his heart, and laughed miserably, "What can I do, we all belong to Sichuan and Shu, and now we are no longer officials of the imperial court." ”

Fang De was carried back to Fang Mansion by the little servant, his cheeks were sunken, and he was already very thin, he looked even more terrifying, looking like he had just picked up from the pile of dead people, Tang Yiyun didn't know what was going on, so he had to put Fang Dezheng on the bed and invited a doctor to see a doctor for him, saying that he was overworked and had not eaten food so he fainted, in short, he was hungry and fainted.

After lying down for a day, I poured some soup and water, and I woke up the next day, and the first sentence when I woke up was to pull Tang Yiyun's sleeve and say, "We're dead here," and the second sentence was to tell Tang Yiyun to quickly collect the money that was released, and then the person fainted again.

"Girl, I heard that the old man just woke up and fainted today. The girl was holding a felt in her hand and was embroidering the brim of her hat.

Fang Yanqing stretched out his hand, followed the raindrops with his fingers, listened to the words of the girl, and did not answer, although Fang Dezheng was a little incompetent, he would not panic like this when he encountered small things, if he said big things, what big things could be.

"By the way, I heard Aunt Wang, who delivered food to the kitchen, say that there are a group of soldiers in our city. The girl sipped the thread with her mouth, and suddenly remembered what she heard when she went to the laundry this morning, and added.

"Soldier?" Fang Yanqing suddenly turned his face, looked at the girl who was holding a strand of white thread in one hand and an embroidery needle in the other, and asked, "What is a soldier, is it wearing a military uniform or..."

"I don't know," Qing Yatou shook her head, "I heard Aunt Wang say that there are hundreds of people, and they look very well-dressed, but they don't know if they are in military uniforms......

Fang Yanqing clasped the palm of his right hand with his left hand, and suddenly had a strange direction in his heart, it wouldn't be that he was starting to mess up.

The sound of the clock ticked and ticked, and there was a gentle sound of footsteps outside the door, which could have been very low, but there was still a sound, which was heard very clearly in the quiet courtyard, and the man seemed to be cautious, and stopped after a few steps, and then walked a few brisk steps.

Qing Yatou stopped what she was doing, glanced at Fang Yanqing, then gently put the unembroidered hat on the table, slowly stood up, and walked towards the door, her hand slightly stretched out to the umbrella in the big bamboo tube on the side of the door, Fang Yanqing also tilted her head slightly, and looked out through the side crack of the window.

"Ran?"

"Speak clearly!"

Feng Ranran was wearing a pair of suspender pants, a white shirt on top, the trouser legs were rolled up, and a pair of black boots were worn underneath, with curly hair tied into a high ponytail, and a gray hat.

Hearing Feng Ranran's voice, Qing Yatou hurriedly put the umbrella into the big bamboo tube and reached out to open the door.

"How you're wearing this now, I almost didn't recognize it. Fang Yanqing got down from the soft collapse, put his feet into his shoes, hooked the heels with his hands, and put on his shoes to meet them.

"It's more convenient, in case I get discovered, I'll go over the wall and drill the dog hole. Feng Ranran said, sitting on the stool, Xiao Man behind him was actually wearing a suit of clothes and pants, listening to Feng Ranran's words, he smiled a little helplessly.

"Fortunately, I went to ask Sanniang, there is a back door, otherwise, it will be a disgraced face, and our girl has even chosen to turn over the wall. Xiao Man said unhurriedly.

Fang Yanqing couldn't help laughing, "Just walk through the door and come in, why do you want to look like this?"

Feng Ranran waved her hand, let Xiaoman and Qing Yatou go to the side room to play, she took the soup woman handed by Qing Yatou, held it with both hands, and waited for the two girls to go to the side room, then looked at Fang Yanqing and said, "My brother has something to do, I went back to Shanghai first, recently, your house also has something to do, originally my aunt handed over the post, but your aunt said that she was too busy to open anything, postponed, I was in a hurry to see you, and I was embarrassed to hand over another post, so I wanted to sneak in." Luckily, there's no one in your backyard, and I didn't run into anyone along the way. ”

Fang Yanqing nodded, "Do you think we are your family? The girls in the house either follow the young master, or follow the wife and the young grandmother, there is only one me and my mother, and there are few people in the kitchen, but they are busy when cooking, how can there be idle running around in the house." After jokingly, he put the water in the teacup into the teacup, raised his eyes slightly, looked at Feng Ranran's eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Is it the other way around?"

The door was closed tightly, Feng Ranran nodded, "Some time ago, Rong County became independent, but the news was not well-informed, and it has not yet come out. ”

"What a day. ”

"Eleven. Feng Ranran replied, picking up the tea with one hand and gently blowing the tea leaves floating on it, "Now the armies in various places have begun to move. ”

Fingers lightly tapped on the table twice, click, click, click, click, click, click, Fang Yanqing turned the teacup, and said softly, "Sandpiper and clam are fighting, there will be no fisherman waiting behind." ”

Now there is chaos everywhere, there are different hearts, different hearts, but there is no courage, the most fatal of them is the army, fighting, you must have some confidence to do it, nothing can be done, how to fight, why fight.

My brother is also very worried, and although he is happy that the situation has changed, he is also worried about the current situation. Feng Ranran couldn't help sighing and said, "My brother is still very worried about you, and asked me to take care of you more." ”

Fang Yanqing was stunned by Feng Ranran's sudden change of words, and said a little embarrassedly, "Worry about me, what do I have to worry about." ”

Fortunately, Feng Ranran kept her head down, didn't notice that Fang Yanqing's face was a little red, and said, "I don't know, he said that he was afraid that your uncle would change and your uncle would be angry with you, so let me pay more attention." ”

Thinking of what Qing Yatou said that the soldier was coming, Fang Yanqing frowned and asked, "Sichuan Shu... Independent?"

Looking at Feng Ranran and nodded, Fang Yanqing probably had a plan in his heart, if Sichuan and Shu are independent, then Rongcheng, isn't it..., Uncle's official is gone, Fang Yanqing instantly thought of it, and the money released from the outside has to be recovered quickly, if it has not been recovered before the warlord takes over, as soon as this day changes, the money may never be recovered, and... There is also Vigo's imperial examination, the road to being an official should be broken, and this time the economy of Fangfu will be cut to death, and the road behind it will be cut off.

"The troubles behind the Fang family will only get more and more, but I shouldn't have any big troubles. Fang Yanqing thought for a while and asked, "Wei Chao and Zhou Dong are gone, what about the children, do you still have to go to class?"

"Well," Feng Ranran said, "Brother Dong gave me the key before leaving, and I went to open the door every four days and let the children go to get the books." ”

"How long will it take for them to come back from this trip?"

Feng Ranran saw that Fang Yanqing was a little worried, and said soothingly, "It shouldn't be long before Shanghai becomes independent, and my brother should come back." ”

Fang Yanqing smiled, ate tea with Feng Ranran for a while, and chatted casually while chewing pastries, "Forget it, let's talk so much today, I'll follow my aunt to chat with you again in a few days." Feng Ranran clapped her hands and said.

"Hey, Zhou Dong's bookstore, when does it start every few days, I have time to go and see those children, and by the way, I will give you a few words. ”

Feng Ranran listened to Fang Yanqing's words, nodded, and counted the time with her fingers, "I opened the door once the day before yesterday, and the next time I will wait three days later." ”

"Okay, I got it. Fang Yanqing nodded, stood up, and walked out of the door together, Fang Yanqing asked the Qing girl to send Feng Ranran and Xiaoman, sent them to the house, and sent them to the gate of the courtyard herself.

I returned to the room, sat on the chair, and sat stunned for a while, before I blinked my eyes and said to myself, "It's really the opposite." His fingers flexed slightly, looked at the lines of his palm, and laughed, "Father, you... What you should see, I'll see for you. ”

After that, it's time for a new society, where you can slowly sweep away those things and build a new one.

At least women don't stay at home, they can have more options. Fang Yanqing smiled, and suddenly felt that the scenery after that would be more beautiful, so that Yuqing could also study, and he could do something with Wei Chao that he had always wanted to do.

It's just that you still need to be patient, to hide the look in your eyes, and to remind yourself that you need to be more vigilant.
