When Shi Ran stood in front of Yunhe's tent with Lian Zhi'er's hand, she still hesitated, looking bitter, "Otherwise, let's not go, that old man is also a notoriously stubborn, and you can't provoke anyone to provoke him." ”

He couldn't help laughing when he saw that she was retreating, for he could not see the expression on his face with the mask, but his eyebrows and eyes were crooked like the stars in the sky.

"Don't be afraid." Those two words of him were enough to quiet her.

When he entered the tent, he saw Yunhe sitting on a chair with his gray beard, his face still angry, and when he saw Lian Zhi'er, his eyes seemed to be on fire.

Lian Zhi'er's legs couldn't help but tremble, and she quickly hid behind Shi Ran, wrapped tightly around his waist, and a head slowly drilled out from under his arm, as if there was a hungry wolf eating people in front of him.

"What are you doing here?" Yun He snorted coldly, "Could it be that the county lord still found a helper to cure the old man?" ”

Shi Ran saluted respectfully, and he was indeed a humble gentleman, as gentle as jade, but he saw the grace of his gestures.

"Please also ask Mr. to make amends to the county lord, she didn't copy a word today, I gave the guessed topic to the county lord yesterday, and it stands to reason that she came out on top."

Yunhe thinks that he is the most respected person in Beiliang, and even the history books of Beiliang were compiled by him, and even Zhi'er's father had nothing to do with this Yunhe.

"What do you say? What are you, you can still guess my test questions. Yun He's face was full of disdain and disdain.

"Just look at your exam papers from previous years to guess. And I've read all of my husband's books, and your account is a myth, and I can't compliment it. "Shi Dye will always be such a merciless person.

Lian Zhi'er, who was hiding behind him, had already changed his face in fright, and said hurriedly, "Shi Ran, are you crazy?!" ”

"You ......" Sure enough, Yun Heqi almost didn't break his breath, "You sin slave know something, and you dare to come here to point fingers." ”

"In the year of Tianxin, I actually remembered that the fourth king of Beiliang defeated 30,000 horses of the Dayue clan with 3,000 soldiers and horses. It was written that the god of the snow-capped mountains was born, and the wind and thunder were great, killing 20,000 soldiers of the Great Moon Clan. He said slowly, "This is not a legendary book in the market, it is to be passed down through the ages, how can there be such absurd words." ”

"You ......"

This was the first time Lian Zhi'er had seen Yun He being said speechless like this, and she lowered her head and almost laughed.

"There are many other things that are just fabrications......"

Shi Ran's words hadn't finished yet, but he saw Yunhe sneering and said, "Okay, then the old man will listen to your nonsense, and you dare to speak out here." Everyone knows the old man's temper, if you rely on the lord of Beiliang here and talk about it, it is a wrong idea. ”

The dyeing face does not change color, "Yes." ”

Lian Zhi'er was stunned behind him, but when he saw the two of them like this, he was afraid that Yun He's hard bones would be dyed and angry.

Just when she was at a loss, she saw Yun He's cold eyes looking at Lian Zhi'er, "You-go out." ”

Lian Zhi'er subconsciously shrunk his neck. Then he laboriously leaned towards Shi Ran's side, "I'll stay here and accompany ......"

Yun He directly interrupted her words bluntly, "The county lord's learned old man knows very well, even the newborn foal is smarter than you, and you will only hinder the old man's eyes if you stay here." ”

This is too bullying, Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but blush with shame, this old stubbornness actually made her lose face in front of Shi Ran.

Shi Ran stared at her and whispered, "Don't worry, I'll let him make amends for you." ”

Lian Zhi'er's face was suddenly full of joy, and the corners of her lips were hooked, "Okay, I'll wait for you outside." ”

Who knew that Lian Zhi'er waited for three full hours, and the dazzling sun gradually sank in the west, and there were already speckled stars in the sky.

Lian Zhi'er was really impatient, and suspected that Shi Ran had been assassinated by the old stubbornness, so he tiptoed to the tent on tiptoe, and only lifted the curtain with one foot to look inside.

However, before she could see anything, she felt as if the top of her head had been hit, and she hurriedly raised her head, only to see that Shi Ran had come out of nowhere, and she had fallen headlong into him.

He stretched out his hand with a little coldness and rubbed her head, and sighed helplessly, "Is it just that you are waiting for a long time?" ”

Lian Zhi'er's cheeks were slightly red, but she didn't dare to explain, she only bit her lip stubbornly.

And at this moment, he saw that Yunhe had already walked out, and when he saw Lian Zhi'er, he saluted respectfully, and then said in a voice with some vicissitudes of life, "Today is indeed the old man's mistake, I wronged you in vain, today I will make amends to you in front of everyone, you really did not copy." ”

Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but take half a step back in fright, and shook her hand anxiously, "But don't, you're torturing the county lord, you just need to tell others tomorrow that I have a first-class grade." ”

Yunhe hurriedly agreed, looked at Lian Zhi'er for a long time, and his eyes fell on Shi Ran's body again.

Then he sighed thoughtlessly, "It's a pity, it's a pity." ”

Lian Zhi'er always shamelessly asked, "What is a pity?!" ”

"It's a pity that this son has such unparalleled knowledge, he should have married a woman who is as good as him, it's really a tyrannical thing, why did it fall into your hands." Yunhe looked distressed.

Lian Zhi'er, "......"

Dyeing, "......"

"What's wrong with the county lord?" Lian Zhi'er was a little resentful.

"When the county lord was young, Ling Zun and the old man taught you to read and read, and you not only mixed ink into the old man's sesame-filled rice balls, but also drew turtles on the old man's clothes." He still hates it now, "Others will do it again." She had to teach it ten times. ”

It's all something she did when she was a little inadvertent, where does she remember it now, no wonder Yunhe didn't like her since she could remember, it turned out that there was such an entanglement in it.

"She's not stupid." Shi Ran protected her behind her, and there was undeniable firmness in his voice, "In my opinion, she is the smartest girl in the world. ”

Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but blush on her cheeks, and then nodded heavily.

Immediately, Yun He looked at it coldly, and the irony in it was clear at a glance, do you dare to take it?

When he came out of Yunhe's yard, Lian Zhi'er looked around for horses.

Then she remembered that she had forgotten to tie the horse she was riding because she was in such a hurry.

Shi Ran sighed helplessly, "Maybe it's lost, let's go back first." ”

"I won't lose it, maybe they will go back to the royal court first." Lian Zhi'er said with a smile, "In our Beiliang, no one will secretly tie up other people's horses, just give them some feed, this is our Beiliang rule, and people from generation to generation have remembered it." ”

Shi Ran saw that her face was very solemn when she said this, so she smiled.

"Let's go back." After Lian Zhi'er finished speaking, he held his cold hand tightly, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, as if he had succeeded in something.

Shi Ran realized that she did it on purpose, but he didn't expose her lies, but nodded, "Okay." ”

The snow on the meadow is thin. Lian Zhi'er only walked beside her, and the moonlight made the shadows of the two people overlap, and it seemed so inseparable.

Thinking of the matter of the right talent, Lian Zhi'er was still full of joy, and only praised, "The husband is worthy of being the champion, and even that Ruan Lu ......"

At this point, she realized that she had lost her words in her panic, and had mentioned the name that should not be mentioned.

The footsteps of the two of them were all stunned, and after a long time, Lian Zhi'er said softly, "How is he doing?" ”

She knew that he was now the regent, and what was wrong with it, but she still asked, after all, because of himself, he had suffered so much, and his parents were crazy and stupid.

"It's good, but he has made a side concubine, and he is a woman called pity." Shi Ran stopped and turned to stare at her, "Now Jing Suihou has become his right-hand man, and Fu Yunhuang is also his concubine." ”

Lian Zhi'er nodded slowly, and only sighed, "Presumably, that pity is a very gentle woman, I just hope to be by Ruan Lu's side well, it must be difficult for someone like him to fall in love with others." "The end of the world

After she said this, she felt that Shi Ran was looking at her with an extremely strange gaze. There was a bit of sourness in his voice, "You know that he loves you the most." ”

Lian Zhi'er's face was full of surprise, and then she thought of something, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, "Shi Dye, it smells so big, I don't know who ate it." ”

Shi Ran ignored her and turned to leave.

Lian Zhi'er quickly caught up with three steps and two steps, and then said with a smile while retreating backwards, "It's me who is jealous, that Fu Yunhuang has liked you for so many years, I don't have her beauty, and I don't have her gentleness and virtuousness, even reading books like that." ”

Because she kept retreating, she couldn't see the road behind her, and inadvertently stepped on a piece of dead wood. Her skinny body jerked backwards, but Shi Ran reached out and took her in his arms.

She met his gaze in a daze, and then said slowly, "Shi Ran, I only recognized you in my life, and I have already identified you from the first time I saw you in Beijing, and now that you are only in my hands, I will never let go again." ”

Shi Ran met her fiery gaze with a smile in his eyes, and then pulled the hair of her sideburns for her, "What you should worry about the most is the horse race tomorrow night, if you cry, I'm afraid you'll cry again." ”

Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but blush, "I'm not Akong, how can I cry." ”

The two were walking, but they saw a fire and candle burning in a tent, and then there was a faint sound of sheep crying, which was very sharp and piercing.

Shi Ran didn't care about this, and when he was about to leave, he saw Lian Zhi'er's eyes suddenly shining, "Whose sheep is difficult to give birth, I'll take a look." ”

After saying that, he ran straight to the brightly lit place, and there was a trace of weirdness on his face, but he still slowly chased after him.

It turned out that a farmer's family was about to give birth to sheep, and when he saw Lian Zhi'er coming, he had already recognized it, and he didn't shy away from it, but said with joy on his face. "The county lord is the best at delivering these cattle and sheep, you can save it."

Shi Ran was stunned, presumably Lian Zhi'er was used to doing these things in previous years.

Sure enough, Lian Zhi'er rolled up her sleeves, rolled up her skirt, and got busy directly and methodically.

He had never seen anything like this, he had never thought he would experience such a thing before, and he felt that everything was so unweird.

Shi Ran had waited outside the stable for half an hour, but he heard a clear cry of a lamb and turned his head. But he saw Lian Zhi'er with blood on his body running out in a hurry.

"Mother and son are safe, go and fetch me a basin of hot water and let me wash my hands."

Shi Ran saw that her hands were dripping with blood, so he went into the tent and brought her a basin of hot water, and even brought the soap bar.

Lian Zhi'er only reached out to rub the soap block, but it was too slippery and fell to the ground.

Shi Ran turned to pick it up, then put his bony hand into the basin and gently washed her hands.

Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but shrink his hand. Then he said slowly, "Dirty, don't touch it, it's all blood." ”

Shi Ran had already fished out her hand, and then took the handkerchief in his arms and wiped it slowly, "It's okay"

Lian Zhi'er suddenly felt as if her heart was filled with something, and then begged in a coquettish tone, "Is it okay to carry me back, I'm too tired." ”

Shi Ran nodded, his gaze as gentle as water.

Lian Zhi'er was really tired and anxious, so she only lay on her back and soon fell asleep.

When I faintly saw the wolf's skin hanging on the king's tent under the moonlight, I saw the sound of horses' hooves behind me, which was earth-shattering, and even the remnants of snow on the ground were trembling.

Lian Zhi'er rubbed her tired eyes, but saw a group of people passing by them.

The men were watching them, and the leader recognized that Lian Zhi'er had only tightened the reins, and everyone behind him had stopped.

"King Shuolang." Lian Zhi'er said slowly, "Why are you here?" ”

Shuolang is the northernmost tribe of Beiliang, and it has always been a wolf's ambition, and it is very covetous of the position of the king of Beiliang.

Moreover, the Shuolang tribe is different from other tribes, and the people they gave birth to have totems painted on their faces since they were young, covering their original faces, foreheads, and cleaning up their hideous faces, which is daunting.

King Shuolang's sharp blade like a sharp knife fell on Lian Zhi'er and Shi Ran's bodies, but he couldn't help but feel a little displeased when he saw Shi Ran carrying Lian Zhi'er on his back, and even a slave didn't kowtow to him.

And Lian Zhi'er and Shi Ran's eyes involuntarily fell on the person riding a brown high-headed horse next to King Shuolang, but they saw that although he was dressed as a Beiliang person, his eyes looked very strange, especially the momentum, which was even more daunting than King Shuolang.

"Who is he?" Lian Zhi'er slowly slid down from the back of Shi Dye. A pair of eyes looked at the man with a little fear, and the man looked at her intently.

Without waiting for King Shuolang to speak, he saw the man himself reply, "My name is Hanma, and my name is the prince's subordinate, and it is not worth mentioning." ”

King Shuolang sneered, "The county lord is leaving, this king is going to take everyone to greet the little prince, and tomorrow the little prince will set up a banquet in the king's tent, and the county lord must come." ”

didn't wait for Lian Zhi'er to answer, but saw that everyone had already rushed away like arrows, only to the royal court.

Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but look at Shi Ran, "I always feel that person looks very familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere." ”

Shi Ran smiled faintly, "Just try it tomorrow, you will always reveal your true body." ”

"Will he come?" Lian Zhi'er was a little flustered.

Shi Ran already understood who she was talking about, but slowly shook his head and comforted. "Things in Beijing are far more complicated than we think, unless he abandons his net worth and his life, how dare he come to Beiliang alone, unless he doesn't want to die."

********

Ah Kong, who has been walking fast, is a very lively child, only running in the tent every day, often running outside the tent, almost stepping on him several times, the maid and the nurse are frightened, but this child can only "giggle" giggles.

Lian Zhi'er just got up on the second day to see her son, because Shi Ran wanted to teach the little prince, she was very boring, so she came here to join in the fun.

Unexpectedly, her son became more and more naughty, and she also reprimanded a few words, Akong just stood there, drooping his head, holding his hands behind his back, looking wronged.

Even the nurse couldn't stand it anymore, so she had to plead, "County Lord, this kid was obedient in the past, it's all ours, and he didn't take a good look at him, don't blame him." ”

When Ah Kong heard this, he felt more and more wronged, and the dignified man actually squeezed out a few tears.

Lian Zhi'er let everyone go out, only pulled Ah Kong to his side, slowly tidied up the felt hat on his head for him, and then asked slowly, "Do you know? In the future, you will call Shi Ran Daddy, if you don't call it, Auntie won't like you, and she won't let others give you candy to eat. ”

Ah Kong shook his head and said in a childish voice, "He is not Ah Kong's father. ”

When Lian Zhi'er left Jingzhong, he was still young at that time, and he was afraid that he had forgotten Ruan Lu, so he had to say patiently, "He is not anyone, he will treat you well in the future." ”

Ah Kong looked at her with eyes that looked like Ruan Lu, and the little man actually had a three-point momentum, "They say that my father is the regent of the Central Plains, and he is a lowly Central Plains person. ”

Lian Zhi'er was shocked, and subconsciously asked urgently, "Who told you these words?!" ”

Ah Kong's eyes were full of fear, especially when he saw Lian Zhi'er's almost mad eyes, "It's Aunt Lian Yan who said it, they all know it, they say that my father is from the Central Plains." ”

Lian Zhi'er's eyes were red, she pointed to her son, and said hurriedly, "In the future, Shi Ran will be your father, and if you talk nonsense, A-Niang will beat you to death." ”

Ah Kong gritted his teeth, looking like he was going to be stubborn to the end with Lian Zhi'er, especially the eyes and movements were exactly the same as Ruan Lu when he was angry.

In a fit of rage, Lian Zhi'er dragged Ah Kong over and hit him the back a few times.

This was the first time she had hit him, and she only felt the same pain as a knife in her heart.

But Akong cried and ran straight out of the tent.
