"Since you picked up this half, let's continue to give it to you for safekeeping." He stretched out a hand, the palm was thick and a little rough, probably left over from a long period of practice, and a piece of warm jade in his palm gave off a warm color, Lin Aqi was a little moved.

"No, didn't you say it was left to you by your mother?" Lin Archie kept his senses, he said that there was not much left for him, so it was very likely that his mother was no longer in the world, this thing was a relic, how could she accept it?

Yunqi insisted, broke her little hand, and put half a piece of jade into her palm: "My mother used to say that the fate between people is very rare. Since you saved me, I have nothing to repay, and you can't bear me? If you need me in the future, just take the jade pendant and go to the capital to find me. ”

Lin Archie wanted to refute, who is reluctant to give you up? Less smelly and shameless!

Can you hear the latter sentence of his......

She was actually very excited.

Although she doesn't want to participate in the draft, she really wants to go to the outside world!

"Shi Niang said that the capital is dangerous, so she won't let me go." She sadly bit off the last hawthorn.

"You want to go to the capital?"

"I think." She nodded heavily, "I really want to see the prosperity of the capital, taste tea, and walk horses." ”

Her eyes were full of yearning, and Yunqi saw the power of dreams in her.

"Okay, if you want to go, I'll help you." He slapped his thigh and made a bold statement.

Lin Archie threw the wooden chisel: "Really? Don't help me become a concubine! ”

He thought of the royal brother's squint......

"How is that possible? If you want to go, I have another way to take you. ”

Lin Aqi finally smiled: "Okay! Deal! ”

The two childishly hooked up and made an agreement, and Yun Qi saw that she was in a good mood, so she couldn't help laughing.

Lin Aqi hadn't seen him smile much, and at the moment he only felt that his smile was three points sweeter than Fang Cai's hawthorn.

The two sold firewood and rushed home, and Xing Sanniang had already prepared a table of fresh fish feast.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I smelled the strong smell of fish.

"The fish made by Shi Niang is the best, let's go clean and eat quickly!"

Yunqi followed behind her, a slight smile in his brown eyes.

Coincidentally, his mother's fish was also the most delicious.

The two of them quickly sat down, and Xing Sanniang and Lin Shaxiang frequently put vegetables in the Yunqi bowl.

"Eat more meat to replenish your body."

"Although young people are strong, they must not lose too much blood and become weak. Come, drink more fish soup......"

"This wild vegetable is delicious and smooth, try it more."

Lin Aqi: The fish in her mouth has no taste, and the master and the master don't love her anymore, so they don't give her vegetables......

The family population is simple, and everyone eats together without paying attention to using chopsticks.

The most ordinary dinner, Yunqi ate very satisfied.

It seems like it's been a long time since I've felt like I'm surrounded by love.

Lying in bed at night, looking back, he seems to have returned to the happy state he had when he was a child and dined with his father and mother.

His mother was strict with him, while his father was more tolerant of him. Only at the dinner table will the two show more love for him.

At that time, the concubine also used her own chopsticks to pick up vegetables for him, and she had never used chopsticks.

He seems to have liked the way he lived in Archie's house. Simple and simple, flesh and blood with feelings.

He caressed his long-dormant heart, which seemed to have not been as relaxed and happy as it was today.

A bright bolt of lightning struck the sky, followed by thunder that shattered the sky. Lin Aqi was frightened awake and remembered the nonsense that had risen during the day.

"No, no, no! He's bluffing a child! ”

Lin Archie comforted himself as he retracted his exposed feet outside the quilt.

"Boom—" Another thunderclap.

The night was deep, and the wind was raging outside. Lin Archie hid under the quilt and shivered.

"God, am I not your baby?"

"You have given me good luck to catch fish and pick precious yam everywhere, why are you disappointing me today, and you will punish and torture me?"

"Uh......h Don't hack me, I was wrong woo......"

The girl curled up in the quilt and begged for mercy, but the thunder did not stop.

She poked out her head slightly, just as lightning lit up, and for a moment, it lit up the whole room.

There was surprise in the hollow, and there was cowardice hidden in the shock, Lin Aqi couldn't stand it anymore, and ran to the master's room with a pillow in his arms.

"Master, Master." Lin Aqi trembled, "I'm afraid ......"

"Open the door! I'm going to sleep with you......"

Master has always slept like a pig, and when he falls asleep, he doesn't care about thunder and lightning or wind and rain outside.

It would be easy to say if Lin Aqi rushed into the master's room and shook him awake, but the master was also inside, and she was a little cowardly.

If Shi Niang came out and beat her, wouldn't she be embarrassed in front of Yunqi again?

Lin Aqi knocked on the door of Yunqi's room.

The people inside quickly got out of bed with their clothes on.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Aqi had a bitter little face, hugging the pillow with indescribable sadness: "I'm afraid." ”

Yun Qi frowned: "It also rained last night, why aren't you afraid?" ”

Lin Archie took advantage of his doubts to rush into his room, jumped into his bed, and covered the quilt tightly.

Four big words flashed in Yunqi's mind: throw yourself into your arms and give you a hug.

"You, how can you run to bed?" Yunqi was shocked.

Lin Archie made up his mind: "Don't come here, let's change the bed and sleep." ”

Yunqi suspected that he had misheard: "What? ”

"You said it yourself in the daytime, what should you do if you hit me? If you have the ability, let's change the bed, and see if God will split you or me! ”

When the words fell, another explosion thundered and shook the sky.

Yunqi couldn't laugh at her snarling eyes, he walked to the bed and sat down: "I said that to scare you, God has eyes, how can he split you?" ”

Lin Archie showed a pair of eyes, bright in the dark: "Then you mean, admit that I am a genius?" ”

Yunqi: He doesn't really want to admit it.

"Yes, you're so versatile and smart." Licking the corners of his mouth, the taste of violating his conscience, secretly weeping in pain.

Lin Aqi was very helpful when she heard this, and she sat up slowly: "Okay, since you said so, then I will reluctantly forgive you for your big words." ”

Yun raised his eyebrows: "You know how many idioms you know." ”

Lin Archie hugged the pillow and moved off the bed: "Pass the prize." ”

Lin Archie returned to the room for a good night's sleep, but Yunqi, who was woken up by her, couldn't sleep.

Canceling Lin Aqi's candidacy status is a trivial matter, and going out from Xilin Village and returning to the capital is a major matter on his mind.

Not to mention the remoteness of Xilin Village, but the road was blocked, he originally planned to go down by boat, which was still inspired by Lin Aqi.

But it always rains at night in Xixiang, and it's hard to say if he'll be able to reach his next destination safely. Moreover, the key culprits in Xilin Village have not yet been caught, and it is not appropriate to risk leaving.

He'd have to think of a perfect way to do it.

The next day, the sky was slightly bright, the white of the fish belly gradually rose into the air, the clouds got up early in the morning, washed up casually and went out, without alarming anyone.

At this time, at the gate of the Xixiang Yamen, two officials had just been on duty overnight, waiting for the daytime duty person to come and hand over.

"Why is that kid so grinding today? It's time to come—"

"Didn't something happen on the way?"

The two of them were bored when they were standing, so they simply chatted.

"If you want to say that no one can match you, last time in the back hall, I will pee my crotch if you come a little later."

Another laughed: "Are you embarrassed to say? Don't you know to drink less water? ”

"Drinking more water is good for health, you know what a fart......"

The two laughed as a result of a sudden terrifying scream came from ahead.

"Murderous ......"

"There are dead people! There are dead people ......"

A farmer was carrying a burden, and at the moment he was running so much that his shoes flew off, his face was panicked and hideous, and he limped so not to panic.

The two looked at each other and immediately stopped the man.

"Stop! What are you shouting about? ”

The farmer shuddered and pointed behind him: "Over there, there's a dead man!" ”

"Who? Recruit from the truth! ”

The farmer covered his face and cried, afraid that he had never seen such a strange and terrifying scene, and the three souls and seven spirits were frightened: "I don't know...... Man is dead! He didn't move, and his neck was still crooked......"

The official did not dare to delay and immediately reported to his superiors.

There has been no murder in the township for a long time, and the incident immediately caused widespread discussion in Xilin Village and surrounding villages.

Yunqi walked all the way to this point only to learn that something had happened.

He showed his token, and the official almost knelt down for him when he saw it: "Wang ...... Wang ......"

The king did not dare to cry out for a long time.

"Your biggest official is Yao Qin?" Yunqi's eyebrows are cold, and his temperament is noble and cold.

The official leaned over and said, "Yes, exactly." ”

"Call him out."

Yunqi didn't wear a mask, but wore a white hat, and others would not be able to see his true face clearly for a while, and the official only felt that he was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

When Township Chief Yao learned that the nobleman was here, he was so frightened that he hurriedly got up from the beauty's arms.

As soon as Yunqi sat down, someone handed over a good fragrant tea.

Lift the lid and smell it, such a valuable product really shouldn't be owned by a township chief.

Township Chief Yao hurriedly came, knelt down and apologized: "I don't know if you are here, what guidance do you have?" ”

Yunqi looked at him coldly, and explained his intention first.

"Where's your roster for this year's draft?"

Township Chief Yao broke out in a cold sweat: "I don't know what the identity of the noble person is?" What is the use of this list? ”

The subordinates only said that he was a nobleman, and they didn't make his identity clear after talking for a long time.

He is a little township chief, how dare he say more?

It's just that this candidate list is still very important for a township, and he doesn't dare to snub the nobles, nor can he easily hand over the list.

Yunqi was impatient and showed the token again.

Gold is the Son of Heaven and silver is king.

Township Chief Yao's pupils suddenly dilated, and his body fell to the ground: "Lord Wang!" I don't know that the prince is here, and the people are terrified! ”

Yunqi leaned back in his chair, raised his chin to look at him, and only spit out two words: "List." ”

Township Chief Yao didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately got up and trembled and turned out the list and handed it forward.

Yunqi took it and flipped through it casually.

The names, ages, places of origin, and volume on them are more than detailed, and even their respective birthdays are counted, which is really very attentive.

Yun Qi sneered, and Township Chief Yao's fingers hidden in his cuffs trembled with fright.

Isn't it that the prince found something? Just came to find trouble with his petty official?
