Since Emperor Taizu conquered thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, Yan has been passed down for more than 200 years, and although the reigning Yan Shun Emperor Wuyue can fight well, he is old and decrepit. The small affiliated countries are ready to move, and the world is gradually showing a trend of separation, among which the Wei State is the most powerful, and the Wei State is known as a virtuous name, and the Yan State is competing with it. In addition, the descendants of the Kunwu clan built Gaoyang State, settled on the bank of the Qin River, took a city as the country, although they did not call the emperor the emperor, but they respected themselves by passing on the number of days, and they had not been attached to Yan for more than 100 years. Everyone in the world is divination, Gaoyang Kingdom refuses to be attached, and the ancestors of Yan Kingdom have never disturbed, but today's Emperor Shun regards Gaoyang Kingdom as a thorn in his side.

Whenever the sun sets, the water surface of the Qin River is sparkling, and from a distance, the Gaoyang Kingdom shrouded in water-colored sky is really a bit mysterious.

Yang Ji, the former head of Gaoyang Kingdom, fell into the water before he was thirty years old and passed away early. Because Yang Ji had no children, the position of the lord of the country fell on the head of Yang Ji's younger brother, Yang Xi. Although he is not as good as his brother, Yang Xi is also virtuous as the lord of the country, and he takes great care of the two daughters left by his brother, and even his own children have to be left behind. However, the two girls under the fence have a lot of discomfort.

When Yang Ji died, the second daughter Yang Xiao was only five years old, and the eldest daughter Yang Yun was seven years old at the time, both of which had long been remembered. Yang Xiao's personality is already lively, she was not too old when her father died, so that's it, but the eldest daughter Yang Yun has reached the age of having children's concerns, and she can't help but become very sensitive and cautious. thought that the two were still taken care of by their mother, but a month after their father died, their mother also hanged herself. Yang Xiao, who was originally carefree, cried from time to time to find his parents, but it was his uncle Yang Xi who accompanied him to ride a horse and touch the fish. Every time he went out to ride a horse, Yang Yun always followed, and also learned to drive the horse and jog a few laps; However, as soon as she touched the fish, Yang Yun stood aside and watched quietly, Yang Xi always didn't seem to pay attention, and didn't greet her much, looking up at Yang Yun from time to time and smiling brightly, and then only continued to accompany Yang Xiao, and she poured water on herself to make her happy.

The two sisters have very different personalities. Yangyun has been taken by his mother since he was a child, and has learned a lot of things, even if he is now taken care of by his uncle, he has never stopped, and at a young age, poetry, calligraphy and painting have been small. Yang Xiao likes to ride horses and shoot arrows, dance knives and guns, and he didn't start to read seriously until he was forcibly held down by Yang Yun at the age of seven, but he only read "Female Commandments", "Female Analects" and "The Biography of Lienu", Yang Xiao began to get impatient, and he was very perfunctory in reading and practicing calligraphy, and he ignored how Yangyun coaxed and persuaded him. After a long time, Yang Yun didn't bother to pay attention to her, she simply studied what she liked, and the daily time was full, but Yang Xiao simply lost her books and homework and concentrated on messing around.

The days passed like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, it was a few years. On this day, Yang Yun was studying a few guqin remnants in the house, Yang Xiao came in quickly, and shouted before he entered the door:

"My sister is too idle, and she can't hear such a big movement outside?"

After a few breaths, it wasn't until Yang Xiao had already stood still in the room that Yang Yun said lightly: "Such a big movement, naturally I heard it." As he spoke, he adjusted the order of the bamboo slips in his hand, but he still didn't look up.

Yang Xiao didn't care, he crossed his waist with one hand, pulled out a handkerchief with the other hand to fan the wind, looked at his sister standing in front of the bookcase, and continued disappreciatively:

"I don't know who came, my uncle arranged a big guard of honor to greet him, I wanted to go and see the excitement, but my uncle sent someone to stop me. In addition to the early court deliberations over the years, my uncle has not stopped me. Sister, you say, is it the lord of another country or something, or did the Yan Kingdom send a big man again? ”

Yang Yun adjusted the order of the bamboo slips again, and muttered: "Sure enough, this matter is better to be handed over to Dr. Lile, it's useless for me to come...... before he raised his head, looked at his sister's face that was red from the rapid journey, and couldn't help but smile, "Who is here, and what does it have to do with you?" If you don't let you see it, you stay. I ask you, has Yang Hibiscus gone? Then he reached for a stack of plain handkerchiefs on his desk, lowered his head again, and carefully wrapped a bamboo slip. Yang Hibiscus is Yang Xi's eldest daughter, she is just seven years old this year, and she is often naughty with Yang Xiao, even Yang Xi and his wife Gao can't control her, but Yang Hibiscus admires Yang Yun's sister very much and is willing to listen to Yang Yun's words.

"They didn't go to Yangjin and Yangji, but Yangjin went, and I heard that it was lively. I also heard that Yang Yang helped to entertain guests, and everyone praised him for doing a good job! Yang Xiao paused, suddenly widened his eyes, as if he remembered something, and said mysteriously, "Aunt took Yang Fang too!" It seems like I've been there for most of the hour, which is weird. ”

The smile on Yang Yun's face gradually faded, but his hands did not stop, unhurriedly wrapping the remnants one by one, and his movements were very gentle. Yang Xi is the eldest son of Yang Xi, only more than two months older than Yang Xiao, who was born in early winter, and his temperament and appearance are very similar to Yang Xi. Yang Qi is the second daughter of Yang Xi, born on the first day of the new year, and now three and a half years old, everyone thinks that the days of her life are clever, and she must be a woman who does not let her eyebrows, but the three-and-a-half-year-old Yang Qi only began to read and write this year, and she does not cry every day, and she is very well-behaved. As for the impotence, it has only been born for less than half a year, so I can't see what it looks like.

Yang Yun thought for a while, shook his head and said to his sister: "It must be a big deal, Yang Hibiscus and they didn't go, don't wait and see." How many months old is impotence? I usually don't give people a look, for fear that the wind will blow through the skin, why did I hold it out for so long today? I think that the person who came must be very valuable, this kind of scene must be to see the boy, let's just stay inside. If you want me to say this, it's okay, you are rarely restrained, so come and copy some scriptures for me, and secretly burn them for my mother in a few days. ”

"Why does my sister always secretly burn scriptures for my mother?" mentioned her mother, Yang Xiao couldn't help but quiet down, and didn't refuse to let her copy the scriptures, "Didn't my uncle say that although it is not in accordance with the rules, we want to pay tribute to our mother, just tell him that he will arrange it properly, we just need to keep quiet." ”

"How can what others prepare as much as we copy by hand? You can come tomorrow and copy two volumes. Yang Yun took out a box of jade sandalwood carvings more than a foot long, and put the wrapped bamboo slips into it one by one.

Yang Xiao wanted to say, "We copied ours, and it wouldn't be better if my uncle asked someone to prepare it when we took it to burn", but the words came to his lips and swallowed again, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask:

"I see that my sister is always cold to her uncle, it's better to be close to my aunt and mother, don't you like my uncle?"

"I'm not an ignorant little girl, why are I so close to my uncle? Besides, the uncle in your mouth is the lord of the country after all, you should be a little taboo, and no matter whether there is anyone or not, you call 'uncle, uncle' every day, no light or heavy. Yang Yun put the box in the book compartment behind him, and turned to look at his sister.

"But my uncle is so good to me, and he likes me to call him uncle, why can't he be called?" Yang Xiao blinked, quite proud, and smiled heartlessly.

"What I am most dissatisfied with is that he is used to you like this," Yang Yun felt that he was a little speechless, and hurriedly took a sutra and handed it to his sister, sighed, and said, "Look at you, like a little monkey, you can't be quiet for a moment, and you can copy so many scriptures for your mother." Mother's way of dying...... We still secretly burned some hand-copied scriptures, so that no one would talk about them. ”

Yang Xiao looked at the scriptures handed by his sister, and he really quieted down, while asking someone to fetch water to rinse his mouth and clean his hands, while letting people grind ink, after cleaning his hands, he personally laid out the paper, took the scriptures, and stood on the side of the bookcase to copy it seriously. Yang Yun didn't bother her, took out the incense burner and smoked some dusty incense, rinsed his mouth and cleaned his hands, took another scripture, and slowly copied it on the side.
