With tears in their eyes, Ma Zhou and Liu Renliang waved goodbye to their teacher and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the official road.

The two walked to the carriage step by step, and gritted their teeth and boarded the carriage in the teacher's constantly waving hands.

The carriage moved forward slowly, and the two seven-foot men were already wet with tears······

"Come back, teacher...... The carriage is long gone."

The crown prince Li Chengqian looked at the teacher who had been watching into the distance and persuaded him.

"Well, you can make a carriage and go back first, and the teacher will be quiet for a while."

Tao Ran said in a slightly hoarse voice.

"Teacher, the students will go back to the academy first, and there will be homework in the morning."

The crown prince Li Chengqian said respectfully, and then boarded the carriage.

He knew that the teacher was sad because of the departure of Ma Zhou and Liu Renliang, and he couldn't comfort him if he stayed, but only increased his sadness.

"Brother Huang, why did you come back alone? What about teachers? ”

Princess Changle and Wu Cong, who had been looking forward to it long ago above the academy, saw the crown prince Li Chengqian coming back alone in a carriage.

Princess Changle immediately ran to Li Chengqian's side and asked.

"The teacher was a little sad, he was uncomfortable with the departure of the two of them, and he wanted to be quiet...... So let the royal brother come back alone first. ”

Prince Li Chengqian replied truthfully.

"Oh, Changle knows."

I don't know why, when Princess Changle heard the prince tell her that the teacher was very uncomfortable now and wanted to be alone and quiet, Princess Changle's heart ached inexplicably.

Princess Changle couldn't concentrate on her schoolwork all morning, and her eyes looked out of the windowsill from time to time.

After class, I immediately ran to the teacher's room to take a look, except for Wu Cong who was obediently practicing calligraphy inside, there was no shadow of the teacher at all.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, you have been here several times, did the teacher ask you to supervise Aunt Hua to study?"

Wu Cong asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Aunt Hua, if the teacher comes back, tell me as soon as possible."

Princess Changle explained to Wu Cao seriously.

"Yes, Your Highness Princess. Hua Gu knew. ”

Wu Cao nodded vigorously, then sat down and continued to write.

Tao Ran walked slowly on the road alone, and Rhubarb followed behind him sensibly without making a sound.

Seeing that lunch time had passed and the teacher had not come back, not only Changle was anxious, but Wu Cao was also anxious.

The two little girls simply ran to the foot of the hill of the academy, where they stopped and watched.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, look, the teacher walked back by himself, and behind him is Rhubarb."

Wu Cao pointed to the figure in the distance and said.

Princess Changle's eyes widened when she heard this, and sure enough, the teacher was no different from Rhubarb.

Princess Changle spread her legs and ran.

Tao Ran saw a little girl running towards him from a distance, Tao Ran couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, it must be Changle or Wu Cao who was worried that he hadn't gone back for so long and came out to look for himself.

Looking at the little girl running hard, Tao Ran's heart felt warm, and a feeling of happiness arose.

Changle gasped for breath and plunged into Tao Ran's arms.

"Teacher, don't be sad, there is Changle with you······"

Princess Changle raised her head in Tao Ran's arms and looked at Tao Ran and said.

Tao Ran's eyes instantly wet when he heard this.

"Thank you, Changle····· Teachers are glad to have students like you who care about teachers. ”

Tao Ran put Changle in his arms on the ground and spoke.

"Because the teacher has always cared about Changle, Changle has to care about the teacher at all times."

Princess Changle replied with a pair of beautiful big eyes.

Changle's words made Tao Ran feel that all his efforts were worth it and would be rewarded......

Tao Ran stroked Princess Changle's hair, and a bright smile appeared on her face.

"Changle, with a student like you, the teacher feels very happy and satisfied."

"Teacher, this is exactly what Changle wants to say to the teacher, with the teacher by his side, Changle is extremely happy every day. Changle didn't want to see the teacher sad or sad, Ma Zhou and Liu Renliang were gone, and Changle and Hua Gu accompanied the teacher! There are also more than 500 students in the academy accompanying the teacher, so the teacher should not be sad anymore. ”

"Well, the teacher is not sad, go to the academy, ride on the back of Rhubarb's horse, and be tired of running all the way, right?"

Tao Ran looked at Princess Changle, who was still panting slightly, with pity, and said.

"Teacher, go up with Changle."

Princess Changle flashed her big beautiful eyes, opened her hands, and spoke.

"Okay, the teacher hugs Changle up."

After speaking, Tao Ran picked up Changle and put her on Rhubarb's horse.

"Teacher, come up too, otherwise the food will be cold when you go back, and you won't be happy to see the rhubarb."

Princess Changle said with a giggle.

"Okay, let's go back quickly."

After speaking, Tao Ran turned over and got on the horse, hugged Changle tightly in his arms, and slapped the rhubarb's back and galloped towards the academy.

Changle smelled the familiar smell of the teacher, felt the temperature in the teacher's arms, and closed his eyes happily.

"It would be nice if we could do it all the time!"

When Princess Changle thought of this, she realized that she didn't know when, her whole body was hot, and her face was hot.

Rhubarb arrived at the gate of the academy in an instant.

"Teacher, you can come back, Aunt Hua misses you."

Wu Cong trotted all the way to Rhubarb, looked up at Tao Ran and Princess Changle in his arms, and said with flashing eyes.

Tao Ran put Princess Changle down on horseback and jumped off by himself.

"Aunt Hua, you little sweet mouth! There is nothing the teacher can do either! ”

Tao Ran said with a smile helplessly.

Tao Ran led Rhubarb to the stable, and saw that the two little girls kept their eyes on the small earthen house, and knew their thoughts.

"Aunt Hua, I'm afraid I'm thinking about cucumbers, right? If the teacher doesn't bolt the door, it is estimated that you will be able to give the teacher in less than three days. ”

Tao Ran smiled and walked towards the mud house, and the two little girls followed happily behind him.

After picking a crisp and tender green cucumber for Changle and Wu Cong, Tao Ran returned to the academy with the two.

Seeing the happy appearance of the two little girls, Tao Ran's heart became more and more cheerful, otherwise how could anyone say that happiness can be infected!

"Your Majesty, the two governors, Ma Zhou and Liu Renliang, have already gotten into the carriage and headed for the direction of the Western Regions."

Wang Ke, the commander of the Hundred Cavalry Division, reported carefully in the imperial study of His Majesty Li Er.

"Chang'anhou should be going to see them off, right?"

His Majesty Li Er asked gently.

"Go, Chang'an Hou told them to go to the Western Regions to implement the new policy, and to teach and promote the skills he taught the two of them, so that the Western Regions can be stabilized."

"Sure enough, it's the same as I thought, it's the best situation. It's also thanks to me that I accepted the recommendation of Chang'an Hou, and it's really not good for others to go to the Western Regions to start the princess, I hope Ma Zhou and Liu Renliang can not disappoint his teacher, and not let me down·····"

His Majesty Li Er said with emotion.

"Juan, come here."

The old lady called out loudly.

"Grandma, grandma, what are you calling the cuckoo?"

The cuckoo came to the old lady and asked respectfully.

"Grandma can't call you if she's fine? What a silly girl. The old lady said with a smile.

"Starting today, Juan, you go to live in the West Wing, and the West Wing will be yours in the future."

The old lady said solemnly.

"Grandma, what's going to do? But I can't do it, it's the wedding room that Hou Ye bought for Brother Ma, Du Juan doesn't dare to live in it, and Hou Ye can't scold me when he comes back······"

The cuckoo waved his hand again and again, and said in resignation.

"Silly girl, if you are blessed, you don't know how to enjoy the blessings, this family is still grandma's final say, grandma will let you move in, just listen to grandma, no one dares to object, even if anyone is against it, it is useless, as long as grandma is alive for a day, Taofu can't turn the sky upside down."

The old lady said excitedly and loudly.

"Grandma, why are you so excited?" The cuckoo was really startled by the old lady's expression and asked.

"Isn't Grandma excited about my great-grandson? Today, you can move it, and you have to move if you don't move, otherwise grandma will remember that my great-grandson is huddled with others and suffered, and grandma will not bear it. ”

The old lady pointed to the cuckoo's forehead and spoke. "I don't know what to do, girl, hurry up and move over to grandma."

Du Juan saw that she couldn't help but reluctantly agree, but she was very moved in her heart.

Grandma has actually been quite good to herself, but Hou Ye has never come back since he tossed himself for a week that night.

Now that he has his bloodline, I wonder if he will be as happy as his grandmother if he knows?

"Grandma, the cuckoo moved over, move over immediately."

"That's a good boy. Let the maids help you clean up, but be careful of my great-grandson. The old lady said with a smile.

"Grandma, the cuckoo knows."

The cuckoo smiled and turned around and went out to ask Yahuan to help him clean up the room.

The old man Zhang Lin walked alone on the way home, and when he came, there were officers and soldiers to see him off, not to mention that he had no worries about food and clothing, and he still came in a carriage.

When he left, because he was a soldier who left quietly and Chang'an who left quietly, he didn't eat for three days, and he felt that it was impossible for him to go to Hutou Village in Biansai.

If it weren't for the belief that Jieli Khan's body must be sacrificed to the graves of his son and daughter-in-law to support him, I'm afraid that the old man Zhang Lin would have fallen on the side of the road a long time ago.

There was a voice in his heart calling that he couldn't fall, in this icy and snowy winter, once he fell, there was no possibility of survival.

The sky was about to darken, and the sharp north wind began to shine with a loud whistle.

The old man Zhang Lin accidentally stepped on a piece of hard stone on the side of the road, and the old man tripped and fell to the ground.

"Someone fell to the ground in front of the governor." The soldiers next to the carriage reported to Ma Zhou.

"Oh, stop and see, it's hard to get up again if you fall down in this cold and snowy place."

When Ma Zhou heard this, he immediately opened his mouth and instructed.

"Subordinates obey orders······"

The soldier agreed, and immediately rode forward.

"Uncle, uncle······"

The soldiers shouted loudly.

The old man Zhang Lin opened his eyes with great effort and saw a young man who looked like a soldier in front of him.

The corners of the old man's mouth moved, but he didn't make any sound, tilted his head and fell asleep.

"Dudu, the old man has fainted, and his subordinates feel that they should faint from hunger."

The pro-soldier looked at the old man's yellow-skinned face and guessed.

"Lift him to the carriage, and the officer will take care of him." Ma Zhou said.

"Governor, this is not appropriate, just take care of it by your subordinates." The pro-soldier responded.

"There's nothing wrong with it, the official's carriage is spacious enough, not to mention that it's a lot warmer inside."

Ma Zhou said with a pleasant face.

"Subordinates obey." The soldier replied.

Then the two pro-soldiers worked together to lift Zhang Laohan to Ma Zhou's carriage.

"Ma'am, bring me a piece of bread."

Ma Zhou turned to Gao Hongxiu and said.

"Yes, sir."

When Gao Hongxiu heard this, he immediately took out a piece of white flour cake from the package and handed it to Ma Zhou.

"Give me the kettle again." Ma Zhou continued to command.

"Sir, kettle."

Gao Hongxiu handed the kettle over.

Zhang Lin old man, after feeling that he fell, met a soldier, and then fell asleep······

In the dream, he saw his wife, son, daughter-in-law, and daughter who had been abducted since childhood, Zhang Laohan laughed, and the family was finally reunited······

This is a wish he has dreamed of for many years, but he didn't expect it to come true today.

"Ma Zhou and Liu Renliang have embarked on the journey to the Western Regions, you will be the teacher's right-hand man in the future, the teacher will put pressure on you and assign tasks little by little, you have to be mentally prepared."

In Tao Ran's room, Tao Ran solemnly said to Pei Xingjian.

"Teacher, don't worry. The student knows what to do, and what the two brothers can help the master do, the student can do the same. ”

Pei Xingjian raised his head to look at the teacher and responded.

"Okay, the teacher likes your straightforward momentum, go to the innermost room of Ma Zhou and Liu Renliang to sleep at night, and it will be more convenient for the teacher to call you in the future."

"Got it, teacher. The students immediately went to clean up. ”

Pei Xingjian readily agreed.

"Grandma, Brother Ma's room is festive, I feel like a new house."

After the cuckoo finished cleaning up the room, he smiled and spoke to the old lady.

"It's not a new house, let Juan also experience the taste of the wedding room, next time when the eldest grandson comes back, it will be convenient for you, the province is the same as the last time, next door to grandma." You didn't close your grandmother's eyes for a while all night······ Now it's okay to move to the West Wing, no matter how you toss, grandma can't hear the nagging······"

The old lady squinted at the cuckoo and spoke.

"Grandma, I said something embarrassing, it's not that Master Hou keeps ····· The cuckoo can't help it·····"

The cuckoo blushed and spoke.

Thinking of everything that night, now the cuckoo is still feverish, that kind of taste is a taste that he has never experienced in his life, but it is a pity that Hou Ye has never come back for so long······
