Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, three months have passed, and autumn has come.

The busiest are the peasants, but the most lively is the county government.

At this moment, groups of prisoners in the Hangzhou County Yali who were beheaded after the autumn were being escorted from the county government to the vegetable market by the officials.

"Qingfeng, do you say that these people are all heinous people?"

In the teahouse opposite the vegetable market, a young man who looked like he was seven or eight years old looked down at the prisoners in prison clothes downstairs.

It's so quiet that it's frightening.

The attendant next to him glanced downstairs and saw the familiar face in the crowd.

"Qingfeng doesn't know. ”

"I don't know?" the young man sneered, but instead of looking at Qingfeng, he looked at the executioner with a knife and axe in his hand,

"There are people who have been wronged. ”

The knife fell in his hand, and the blood gradually turned green, Qingfeng subconsciously wanted to cover Ye Luo's eyes, but when he saw her "calm" gaze, he couldn't help but withdraw his hand.

"Young master, let's ......" Let's go home, he wanted to say, but it seemed like a fish in his throat.

"Qingfeng, one day, I will make the people behind this curtain pay with their lives. ”

This year, when she was eight years old, she witnessed her father's death, and watching her father's body separate, she could only clench her fists, grit her teeth, and let the tears flow backwards.

And the price of doing so was that Qingfeng heard a "plop" sound, as if something was falling.

Retracting his gaze from the execution ground, he looked down and saw that the child who was sitting on the chair had fallen to the ground with the chair behind him.

Qingfeng leaned down and was about to pick her up, but saw the blood stains left from the corners of her mouth.

————

"I'm angry, the little master's foundation is not good, so I'm afraid it's even worse. In the future, remember not to get angry easily. Ye Luo lay on the bed, and in a daze, she heard a voice in her ear saying something she didn't understand.

What was so angry, when did she get angry?

When she opened her eyes and saw Mother Qiao beside the bed, she was overjoyed,

"Mother Qiao, it's been a month since Daddy went out to run errands, is he coming back today?"

Not only Qiao's mother, but even Ziyu, who was guarding the side, couldn't help but be stunned.

Master...... It's dead.

Ziyu and Qiao's mother looked at each other tacitly, knowing the truth, they couldn't tell Ye Luo the answer.

Because, her father will never come back.

"Young master, master, he ...... He's dead. Although she couldn't bear it, Ziyu understood better that what the young master needed at this moment was the truth.

Even if she was stimulated, all she needed was the truth, not the secret.

"Dead?" looked at Qiao's mother beside the bed, whose dodgy eyes reminded Ye Luo of the scene she had witnessed.

In just a moment, the whole person's face was like ashes, and Ziyu had no doubt that as long as she pushed her at this moment, she would fall away.

"Gu ...... Mr. Gu?"Ziyu was surprised by Gu Qin's appearance, isn't he supposed to be teaching in the mountains at this moment?

"Youlao, can I have a few words with her?" Gu Qin asked softly, and Qiao's mother looked at Ziyu.

Ziyu knew that this gentleman meant a lot to Ye Luo, and nodded affirmatively in response.

"Sir, please. As she spoke, Qiao's mother left the house with Ziyu.

The man in the moon-white robe paced to the edge of the bed and sat down in the position of Fang Caiqiao's mother.

"Luo'er. ”

The voice was gentle, just like usual, but there was a little more pity in the eyes that looked at her at the moment.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Gu Qin called again, "Luo'er." ”

It only accentuates the tone.

It seemed that he heard someone shouting to himself, it was still a familiar voice, Ye Luo looked in the direction of Gu Qin, but his eyes were still confused, and there was no focus.

"If you feel uncomfortable, just cry, just cry. ”

Gu Qin sighed, hugged the child on the bed into his arms, and gently stroked her hair, inducing

"At an age when you can still cry recklessly, cry recklessly, don't think about the Ye family, don't think about anyone, just cry. ”

"Master's ......"

As soon as the words fell, Gu Qin felt a tingling pain in the inside of his shoulder, and he couldn't help but snort, but he endured the pain and didn't push it out of his arms.

After the pain, Gu Qin finally heard a subtle cry, which grew louder and louder, so big that everyone outside the courtyard could hear it clearly.

"Madam, little master, she ......" Qiao's mother was about to go in when she heard the crying in the yard, but she was pulled by Liu Ruoshui behind her.

"Mom, let her cry, this may be the last chance in her life to be presumptuous. ”

Liu Ruoshui said without waiting for Qiao's mother to react, and had already turned around and left the small courtyard.

Walking around the corner, he stopped where others couldn't see, and raised his hand to gently wipe the moisture from the corners of his eyes.

This may also be the last time she relented.

————

Zhizi Mo Ruomu, as Liu Ruoshui said, since that day, Ye Luo seems to have returned to his original appearance, talking and laughing like a nobody, and returned to the academy again.

It's just that Ye Luo, whose family background has changed, can no longer live alone, with two subordinates, and at this time, Gu Qin's appearance made Ye Luo live in his own snow courtyard.

This is the most important place in Yelo's life.

After eight years of hard study, we finally ushered in this most important year. Eight years later, the Ye family also came back to life in the hands of Liu Ruoshui, although he was not the richest man in Hangzhou, he was also a medium-sized rich man.

————

Ye Luo chose to leave Hangzhou City on horseback, in her words, to be able to ride a horse you have to take a car, that is a waste of resources.

But Qingfeng felt that his young master was definitely deliberately embarrassing him.

The young master's riding skills were learned from Mr. Gu, and he was half a hanger, which was incomparable.

As for the reason, it is that Qingfeng accidentally damaged the wooden figure she had just carved a few days ago, knocking Mr. Gu to half of his face.

From morning to noon, Qingfeng and Ye Luo waited at the gate of the mansion, waiting for neighbors and their own merchants from all directions, and when Ziyu was about to be annoyed by Qingfeng, he didn't leave until Murong Xuan appeared, but he never waited for two people.

Gu Qin and Liu Ruoshui.

One is in this mansion, and the other is in Lishan Academy not far away.

The two of them had no contact, but they didn't come to see her off very tacitly.

"Don't forget the title of the gold list, Master. ”

Murong Xuan was still dressed in eye-catching red, and his eyes looked at Ye Luo with a smile.

"I haven't gone out yet, how do you know that you can be named on the gold list?"

As always, he didn't deal with him, but this time Murong Xuan didn't teach her a lesson, he just smiled and said nothing.

"Let's go, don't go any longer and delay my lunch. Seeing that she hadn't left yet, Murong Xuan urged a little impatiently.

Glancing at the sun in the sky, the corners of Ye Luo's mouth rose with a trace of bitterness.

Her mother didn't come as she expected, after all, she had always been cold to her, especially since she started eight years ago.

But he really didn't come.

- Master, I like you.

She used all her courage to show him her heart, but all she got was a sentence

- I'm your teacher, and besides, I have someone I like, and she'll never be you.

Sad, pathetic, ridiculous.

Ye Luo turned over and got on the horse, both his posture and his momentum made Murong Xuan a little dazed.

It wasn't until Ye Luo and Qingfeng left that he came back to his senses.

Like, it's really too similar.

Murong Xuan said goodbye to Ziyu, and then walked back along the road he had come.

At this time, maybe he was already seeing her off somewhere.

From Hangzhou City to Chang'an, it will take more than ten days to travel quickly, and there will be a big competition in a month, but Qingfeng feels that his young master is not in a hurry at all.

Stop and go along the way, stop for a night every time you go to a densely populated place, walk the streets and alleys, walk here, go shopping, Qingfeng feels that his young master is not out for the exam, but out to play.

Today, I went to a tavern to try other people's appetizers, and from time to time I came interested in pestering the master to teach her how to cook. Tomorrow I will go to the hospital to have a look, and I will be equally interested, and I will help you see a doctor.

Originally, the doctor could earn a few taels of silver by himself, and let his young master have such a diagnosis, and everyone only had less than one tael of profits.

However, his own young master didn't seem to feel the displeasure of the doctor at all, and he didn't forget to say goodbye to the doctor every time he left.

Qingfeng felt that what the doctor wanted to say most was actually that he would never see him again.

The first two, Qingfeng can still be understood by interest, but young master, you stop every time you go to an embankment, stop for half a day, what kind of trouble is this?

Finally, when he arrived at the embankment outside Anyang County, looking at Ye Luo, who had stopped the reins of the horse, Qingfeng finally couldn't hold back the impulse in his heart.

"Young master, it's been ten days, but you've only walked a third of the way, do you still want to take the exam?"

"I want to think about it, I dream about it. The speed at which Ye Luo replied surprised Qing Feng, and what surprised him even more was her words.

"Why don't I see that you want to take the exam? ”

Ye Luo didn't seem to hear Qingfeng's complaints, and the horsewhip pointed to the embankment not far away and asked

"Qingfeng, do you think there's anything wrong with this embankment?"

"Isn't it right?" Qing Feng looked at the situation, only to see the calm river surface on both sides of the high embankment.

"No, I don't. Young Master, although you have learned the art of water control from Mr. Gu, you can't just look at the water conservancy repaired by others as unpleasant. ”

"It's not that your young master and I don't like the water conservancy built by others, but that there is a problem with the dam itself. If it rains heavily, the dam will be washed away. ”

"You've only been studying for a few months, how can you be so sure? Young master, it's the right thing to go to Chang'an as soon as possible. ”

You are here to point out the country again, and it is too late to cry when you miss Dabi, Qingfeng thought to himself, but he didn't dare to say it.

Seeing Ye Luo tugging on the reins of the horse, he looked like he was about to leave, but he didn't expect to turn around and enter Anyang County.

It took half a circle in the county seat to find the county office.

Looking at the county government not far away, Qingfeng wanted to cry, for fear that his young master would interfere more and cause trouble.

But he didn't expect that Ye Luo just asked a little boy to hand a note to the gatekeeper, and when he saw that the matter was done, he rode away.

"Young master, I thought you were going to stay in Anyang County for a few days. ”

"What to keep, if you stay, you really can't catch up with the exam. ”

With a swing of the whip, it swept a graceful and smooth arc through the air.

In the next few days, the speed of the rush made Qingfeng stumble, and it didn't look like his own young master's style.

From Anyang County to Chang'an City, it took a total of seven days to arrive.

On the official road on the side of Qingshan, Qingfeng looked at the magnificent Chang'an City Gate not far away, and his heart was extremely excited.

"Young Master, it's here, it's here!"

As soon as Qingfeng's words fell, Ye Luo heard the sound of horses' hooves, which gradually became clear from far to near.

Five horses, one galloping in front and four chasing behind, saw that they were two groups.

It's just that the clothes of the four people in the back attracted Ye Luo's attention.

Soldiers, the four people in the back are soldiers, who is the man in front who ran away?

"Young master......" Qing Feng looked at his young master's slightly raised eyebrows, and a trace of ominous premonition surged in his heart.

"Don't worry, you don't have to draw a knife to help when the road is uneven. The point is that my young master and I don't know how to use a knife. ”

Qingfeng ignored his words, thinking in his heart: Then you will give way to others when the time comes.

Seeing that his young master had no intention of giving way at all, Qingfeng prayed silently in his heart.

Ask God to bless you, and don't stop next to your young master's horse.

However, God seemed to be joking with Qingfeng, and the young man stopped in front of Ye Luo.

But it was not he who stopped, but the arrow struck the horse's hoof, and there was a long neigh, and the man on the horse fell to the ground with the horse.

Qingfeng's heart was cold, and it was over.

At this time, Ye Luo looked at the young man on the ground, his eyes flashing.

The stubbornness in the boy's eyes made her impossible to ignore.

"Who are you? If you don't want to die, get out of the way. ”

"Yo, what a big breath. Looking at the four people who stopped the reins, Ye Luo's eyebrows were frivolous, with a hint of a smile,

"Qingfeng, have you smelled it?"

"Yes, young master, don't you say that I haven't found out that it's the tone. "The tacit understanding between the two people in the past few years can be said to be the peak, basically after Ye Luo finished the last sentence, he knew how to pick it up.

Although he didn't want the young master to cause trouble, the young master was by no means a person who wanted to cause trouble easily.

"You!" The soldier facing Ye Luo raised his whip and threw it in Ye Luo's direction, but before his whip fell on Ye Luo's body, he saw the person on the horse take out a white handkerchief from his sleeve and raise it into the air, and immediately several people fainted.

Of course, in addition to the two who had been prepared, the young man who fell to the ground from his horse also fainted.

"Young master, you really didn't draw your sword. ”

Qingfeng complained, and the man had already dismounted and helped the boy on the ground to his horse.

"Yes, the road is uneven, and you don't have to draw a knife to help. ”

Ye Luo smiled slightly, the two of them, no, the three of them had already ridden their horses and marched in the direction of Chang'an City.

————

After entering Chang'an City, Ye Luo went straight to a safe inn in the east of the city.
