The tenth day of the third month of the sixth year of Shaowen.

This year's winter seems to be particularly cold, and even though it is already early spring, that little bit of chill still invades clothes and people's hearts.

The beggars in the remote and small ruined temples are all walking under the feet of the imperial city in the morning, who said that there are no beggars in the prosperous place?

The little beggar trembled barefoot, and his face was smeared with a few black ashes to hide his original face, and he was dressed in tattered old clothes and staggered along the path outside the temple with a broken bowl.

Neither the caravan nor the passers-by looked at the trembling child.

He hadn't eaten in days, he was hungry, his body was feverish, his feet were numb from walking too far, and he had to rush back to the crowded ruined temple before nightfall.

"Bang!"

Eventually, the child could not hold it and fell to the ground.

Passers-by in a hurry didn't take this hungry child into their eyes at all, and looked at the entire imperial city, such a child was not in the decimale.

Emperor Shaowen is now on the border with the god of war Ronghou to resist foreign enemies, although this imperial city has not been affected, because of the internal strife in the past few years, the entire Chu country has been defeated. If it weren't for Emperor Shaowen's hard support, I am afraid that they would not be able to breathe.

"Alas, such a young child suffers from this crime......" The woman who passed by couldn't help but want to go up and take a look, but was stopped by her husband, who warned her with his eyes not to meddle.

Pull the girl and take the mother-in-law away, there are poor people in the world, and the child can't live when he looks at it.

The child groaned a few times, and then his breathing gradually weakened, and the world was full of refugees, and there were dead people everywhere.

This is still the case in the Imperial City, let alone the outside world.

There is no sympathy for a dead person, the living need to live longer, and the dead are extremely common in today's world.

Therefore, after the child fell, no one really noticed it again.

The warmth and coldness of human affection are vividly displayed at this moment.

The sound of gurgling carriages came faintly from the bamboo forest, and an ordinary carriage slowly passed by the land, and pedestrians avoided the sign of the carriage.

It was the carriage of the Ronghou Mansion, but how could the carriage of the Ronghou Mansion run to such a place?

"Stop, stop!"

As he was passing by, a child's voice suddenly shouted out from inside the carriage, which smelled of arrogance.

"Miss, we must hurry back from here before dark, if we let the Hou Ye know that you sneaked out to play again, when the Hou Ye returns home, it will definitely make the slave look good."

The man inside ignored the groom's pity and jumped out of the carriage with a kick.

The groom was taken aback by the little ancestor's movements, "Miss! ”

"Huh?"

The beautiful girl in a royal blue dress suddenly sighed curiously, and then walked along the little person lying next to her.

Seeing this, the horseman was shocked and hurriedly said, "Miss, be careful!" ”

The eldest lady in front didn't seem to see the groom's frightened look, and quickened her pace to the lying figure, lowered her head and turned her dark eyes to look at the young man who was still muttering to himself in a coma.

The boy is only eight or nine years old, and the girl is only about four or five years old, and she already has the arrogance of a big family.

"Not dead yet!"

The girl seemed to be curious, this person was dying, and her mouth was still babbling.

I don't know if it's because of a moment of curiosity, or because the girl has developed a good heart since she was a child, with two little hands behind her back, he turned back with some momentum, pointed to the boy on the ground and said, "I want to save him." ”

"Miss," the groom wept with a sad face.

As soon as the eldest lady's temper came up, she twisted her eyebrows and said, "Do you save it or not." ”

The groom obviously sensed the edge of the eldest lady's temper outburst, and quickly nodded, "Yes." ”

The groom, who was brought in as a coachman, immediately carried the stiff and cold young man into the carriage, and the girl's dark eyes turned and ran into the carriage quickly, urging the groom, "Go back to the house quickly, go back to the house quickly, otherwise he will die." ”

……

The first thing the little beggar saw when he woke up was a pair of beautiful dark eyes.

Blinked, thought he was dreaming, closed his eyes, opened them, and blinked again.

"Phew!"

The girl holding her chin squinted her eyes and laughed, "You're awake!" ”

tang

The little beggar opened his mouth, and immediately found that he could not speak, and tried several times to no avail.

The girl patted his hand and said, "The doctor said that you are so burned that your throat is almost burned, and you will be able to speak in a few days." ”

After speaking, he blinked his beautiful eyes and stared straight at the beautiful young man lying on the bed.

"Big brother, you look so beautiful! However, the brother in the palace is much more beautiful than you, but he doesn't have a good temper, although everyone thinks he smiles very well, but I just know that he has a bad temper......" In the end, the girl couldn't help but be depressed, "No one plays with me, my sister at home is so fierce, and she joined forces with her fierce mother to bully me while my father was away." ”

The young man who had just woken up couldn't help blinking when he heard the chatter of his little sister next to him, signaling that he couldn't speak, and his mind wasn't very clear.

Staring at the young man's calm black eyes, the girl grinned again: "You will accompany me in the future, ah, I forgot to tell you, my name is Rong Tianyin, what about you?" Forget that you can't speak, then can you write? ”

The girl's swarthy eyes were staring at him as if by magic.

The boy nodded, then shook his head again.

Rong Tianyin didn't understand what he meant, so he kicked twice and turned around to get a pen and ink and put it on the side of the bed.

With some difficulty, the boy propped up his weak body, took the pen she handed over with his washed hand, and wrote his name on the white rice paper.

Finding that the young man's handwriting was very good, Rong Tianyin couldn't help but be envious.

Because she only learned words when she went to a private school, she couldn't write a lot of words.

She can read and understand the words written by the teenager, Rong Tianyin has a flexible brain and turns quickly, except that she is not very good at writing, but her literacy is much stronger than that of ordinary older children.

"You say you don't have a name?"

The boy nodded.

Because since he was sensible, others have called him a little beggar.

Staring at the words of the little beggar, Rong Tianyin struggled for a long time, "You can't call yourself a little beggar in the Hou Mansion, otherwise, you can give yourself a new name!" ”

A new name?

The young man stared at Rong Tianyin in front of him a little blankly, not knowing how to react.

Because he never thought that he would have a serious name one day, from his birth to the present, he only knew that every time an inexplicable wonderful person appeared in front of him, reminding him that his path would be different in the future.

But until then, he can't go down that path, he can only wait for an opportunity, and when the time comes, his life will be different.

These, he never took to heart.

In this accident, he was robbed of food, and he drove for two days until he rested at the foot of the imperial city.

I don't want him to have a sudden high fever and almost lose his life.

What exactly the timing was, he didn't understand.

Seeing that he didn't react, Rong Tianyin tilted his head and thought about it, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Yes, you were picked up by me on the side of the road, why don't I call you Xiaolu, uh, Xiaolu is also very good!" You say, don't you? ”

The boy was stunned and nodded in accordance with her meaning.

Although the name Xiaolu was very earthy, he couldn't bear to brush her mind, and he couldn't bear to see the frowning look of this beautiful child.

"Great! Path, you'll have a name in the future! ”

Rong Tianyin happily took his hand and smiled, not realizing the ugly name at all.

……

Rong Tianyin's rescue of a teenager let the Lin family know that she was the successor of the Ronghou Mansion, and she never gave birth to a daughter again.

In fact, Rong Hou never touched her from the beginning.

If it weren't for an accident that made her pregnant with Ronghou's child, I'm afraid that the gate of Ronghou's Mansion would not be able to enter.

The maid who was waiting beside Rong Tianyin hurriedly ran into the courtyard, "The eldest lady, the lady and the second lady are here." ”

Rong Tianyin was eating with the path that could already get out of bed, and when he heard this, he snorted with disdain on his face, "I don't want to see that woman, let her go." ”

The voice couldn't help but get louder, and the Lin family, who was walking outside, heard it from afar.

The second lady is round, it seems that she eats too well, and she is a little fat, but she can still see that she is somewhat similar to Lin's from the outline.

At this time, he also heard Rong Tianyin's roaring voice, and snorted, "Mother, let's not go in." ”

Lin's

A cold light flashed in his black pupils, and he reached out and stroked his daughter's head, "Be good, listen to my mother, I will be polite when I see my sister in the future, don't let your father catch the mistake, you know?" ”

Second Miss Rong Huayue nodded reluctantly, "Got it." ”

Lin walked in with Rong Huayue, but Rong Tianyin was the only one in the room, and there was no one else.

The path is completely ready to speak.

Of course Rong Tianyin wouldn't leave him here to let the Lin clan catch the whip, she wasn't stupid.

Although Rong Tianyin is not afraid of the Lin family looking for trouble, he just doesn't like to see the Lin family pretending.

"Hmph, I'm going to sue Daddy, you bullied me!"

Before the Lin family could speak, Rong Tianyin pointed at their mother and daughter, accusing with a face full of grievances.

Lin's eyebrows twisted, and his heart was angry.

This little girl's reaction is really getting faster and faster, how can Rong Tianyin's appearance compare to her Lin daughter.

But Rong Hou only loves this daughter, and the unbalanced Lin family always sued in front of Rong Hou several times, Rong Tianyin suffered a loss before, and later learned to be clever. I always like to sue first, anyway, my father likes her.

Where would the Lin family be afraid of her, let alone Rong Hou is here, how can Rong Hou only listen to her one-sided words when he is not here.

"Miss, Master Hou is not at home, you brought strangers into the mansion, what if it is a gangster. Come on, search people out for me, so as not to accidentally hurt the eldest lady. ”

As soon as Lin's words fell, a group of strong men behind him ran in, searching Rong Tianyin's courtyard inside and out.

Rong Tianyin's face turned red with anger, "Big bad guy." ”

"Hmph," Rong Huayue next to her snorted disdainfully.

Rong Tianyin was so angry that her eyes were red, but in front of the Lin family, it was impossible for her to resist at all.

was bullied very much, she would rush up and fight with the Lin family regardless of herself, but it was useless.

Because the Lin family always takes advantage of Rong Hou's absence, Rong Hou always likes to pretend when he is there.

Rong Hou is busy with world affairs and rarely has time to take care of his daughter.

Rong Tianyin can only rely on himself.

"Madam, no suspicious person found."

A strong man walked back from behind and said to Lin, who had an unkind face.

Lin didn't get what he wanted, snorted coldly, threw off his sleeves and left, and didn't forget to drop a sentence, "Keep an eye on this courtyard, don't let someone sneak in and hurt the eldest lady." ”

The strong men responded in unison.

Then Lin walked out with Rong Huayue on his toes, and when he walked to the door, Rong Huayue turned around and stuck out her tongue proudly at her.

Rong Tianyin was so angry that his teeth itched.

When their mother and daughter were gone, the young Rong Tianyin couldn't help but smash things in his house to vent his hatred.

The maids didn't dare to dissuade them, and the eldest lady always had to find an outlet when she was angry, otherwise they would be the ones who were angry.

And Xiaolu, who was quietly sent out of the house, couldn't help but turn back to the people around him: "Tianyin, is she okay?" ”

"My eldest lady is angry with my wife because of you, if you want to be good for the eldest lady, just leave here obediently, don't make the eldest lady embarrassed."

This little guy is the person arranged by Rong Hou next to Rong Tianyin, and he truthfully reports to Rong Hou every time he makes every move of his wife.

If it weren't for Rong Tianyin's own initiative to bring people in, he wouldn't have taken them away so troublesomely.

It is true that Hou Ye loves the eldest lady, but Hou Ye has his own measure in everything he does, except for being too doting on the eldest lady, he does not have much time to be by his daughter's side.

Xiao Lu's calm eyes darkened obviously, gritted his teeth and said, "Then can I see the eldest lady again?" ”

The man glanced at him and said indifferently: "There are enough silver taels here for your life, and you will have less contact with the eldest lady in the future, she is not a child of ordinary people." Whence you came from, you will return. ”

"But ......"

"Let's go," the man said, sending the path to the side of the road, motioning for him to leave, as far away as possible.

Xiao Lu took the small burden and left in three steps and turned around.

When the man saw that he had left obediently, he turned around and went home.

But just after he left, the boy sneaked back.

Rong Tianyin sneaked out of the house again at night, and just crawled out of the secret cave, a black shadow suddenly jumped out in front of him, which startled Rong Tianyin.

Just as she was about to scream, the people around her quickly covered her mouth, and the young man's beautiful voice came, "It's me!" ”

Rong Tianyin got up from the ground, grabbed the young man's hand with his backhand, and then rushed forward with him quickly.

"Huhuhu! It's finally out! Rong Tianyin squatted on the ground, gasping for air.

The teenager also let out some gasps.

"Miss......"

"Hmph, don't call me Miss, call me Tianyin." When she heard this, the eldest lady was upset, because she felt that only people in the house would call her that, and it was always a strange feeling to suddenly hear the young man call her that.

The boy nodded, looking left and right at the sky, "So where are we going now?" ”

Rong Tianyin's eyes rolled, "Why don't we go to the palace...... No, it's too late to get in. ”

In a place like the palace, the boy didn't even think to go in.

"Let's go find Shen Xian......" Speaking of this, the girl shook her head again, "No, if he doesn't like you, he will definitely fight." Why don't you take me out to play, you're always outside, you must know a lot of fun places! ”

"But," the boy was embarrassed.

"But what's it, hurry!" Rong Tianyin went up and grabbed the young man's hand, looking like he was going to drag you along.

The young man had no choice but to say, "Okay, then you have to follow me and don't run." ”

Rong Tianyin's eyes flashed and nodded, "Well, I won't run!" ”

So the young man turned against the guest and took her hand and walked towards the street.

The night street under the imperial city is very lively, and Rong Tianyin is forbidden to go out of the house in normal times, and it is rare to play in such a lively place.

There is a person with her today, not to mention how happy she is!

The boy happily followed behind her ass, carrying the burden on his back, and screaming at her from time to time to be careful while worried.

Where is the crazy little guy willing to be obedient, scurrying around, and suddenly disappearing. Then when the young man was so anxious that he was covered with cold sweat, Rong Tianyin suddenly appeared in front of the young man like a trick, pointing at his miserable white face and giggling.

Then the boy found that Rong Tianyin's smile was too good-looking and lost his mind.

"Look, there's a rower over there, let's go over and have a look!"

"Celestial sound!"

As soon as Rong Tianyin's words fell, his small body ran away with a smoke, but he didn't scare the young man out of his illness.

In the blink of an eye, Rong Tianyin disappeared in front of him, and people who were not strong enough in their hearts were easily scared to death.

The young man didn't dare to slack off, chased out along the side, and finally saw Rong Tianyin's figure squeezing forward in front, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't dare to leave her figure again, for fear that if he blinked again, the person would be gone.

Where does Rong Tianyin know the hard work of the people behind him, the eldest lady is good, she can mess around!

There is not a single person in the house who is watching her who is not careful.

I don't know how many servants have been scared away, on the other hand, Rong Huayue, the daughter of the Lin family, is as quiet as a shy flower, which is really what everyone should be.

But Rong Tianyin is different, what's the use of having a father? Without my mother by her side to teach her, the eldest lady who came out was just a useless eldest lady.

The more spoiled, the more disappointing this daughter is.

The Lin family knew this very well, so she did not stop Rong Hou from favoring Rong Tianyin.

Now this child has gone more and more deviantly, which is exactly what Lin's heart wants.

As for Rong Huayue, with the Lin family behind her back, are you afraid that she can't compare to a Rong Tianyin?

"Wow! Pretty! ”

"Tianyin, don't get too close, what if someone accidentally pushes you into the water?"

On such a cold day, I am afraid that I will be seriously ill if the water falls, and the young man looks around worriedly, and now it is a troubled time. Rong Hou killed the enemy at the border and protected the Chu country. However, there was no stability in the Chu Kingdom, and not many days after the emperor left, the people under the imperial city began to be restless.

Although the young man doesn't know much, he has seen many worlds, and of course he can understand some.

So, he tried his best to stand by Rong Tianyin's side and protect people.

Where Rong Tianyin is willing to listen to him, he will listen to what he wants to be obedient to.

"I won't fall, you're making too much of a fuss," said Rong Tianyin, and deliberately squeezed forward to squeeze in, and the young man was in a hurry when he saw this, and walked in with the crowd.

Among the flower boats, there are Oiran competitions, and there are many onlookers, and they don't see what the troubled times should look like.

At this moment, they are like standing in this peaceful and prosperous world, enjoying the world that others protect them!

As soon as the boy got into the front row, he saw a hand in front of him reaching for the small figure next to him, making a gesture to push someone into the water.

The boy's eyes widened and he let out a shout, "Tianyin! ”
