The pebble swirled and smashed on the bookcase, making a crisp sound, and the gentleman who was reading with his eyes closed couldn't help but open his eyes, and his face sank. Seeing this, a little girl with two balls in front of the bookcase sat down busily, not daring to say a word, and when the gentleman's eyebrows were softened and he continued to close his eyes and read, she pouted and grimaced at the little boy behind the big tree outside the house. The sound of cicadas outside the book house is pleasant, and in the middle of summer, the shade of the trees is the best place to enjoy the shade, but it is much stronger than this stuffy book house.

"Xueke, what are you doing?" The gentleman was happy to read, and on a whim, he wanted to tell the little girl more things, but when he opened his eyes, he saw that the girl was squeezing her eyebrows and making eyes, and she couldn't help but start a fire.

"Sir." Suddenly, someone pushed the door and walked in: "Mr. Luo is here." When the gentleman heard this, he hurriedly threw down the scroll, and hurriedly went out with the man, but suddenly thought of the little girl, so he turned his head and said: "I have memorized what I have talked about today, and when I come back to test you, if you can't memorize it, I will punish you for copying what you have learned today ten times." ”

"Yes, sir." The little girl nodded as if the chicken pecked rice: "Xue Ke must endorse it well." Zhou Xueke cheered, jumped up suddenly, threw the scroll, and jumped down from the front porch of the courtyard and ran under the big tree.

"I'm afraid that the little girl doesn't know where to run now." On the way to the vestibule, the gentleman followed the man as he walked, brushing his beard and smiling.

"The old man is finally gone." When the little boy under the tree saw Zhou Xueke coming, he couldn't help but smile on his face: "I thought you would have to read those "Perch" and "Stone Shock" here all afternoon. ”

"It's the Analects and the Book of Songs." Zhou Xue smiled, looked at the boy in front of him who was half a head taller than him, and said, "Mr. Shi is still very good to me, but he is a little stricter." Hey, Brother Pei, what fun are you taking me to play today? Do you go to the mountains to catch hares, or go to the rivers to catch fish? ”

"No, no, no, you've played all of those, do you hear those sounds from the trees?" Pei Guangyi raised his head and pointed to the big tree on his head, with a mysterious smile on his face: "I'll take you to catch the 'Maji Bird'." ”

"What kind of bird is the 'Maji Bird'?" Zhou Xueke looked up at the big tree, with a puzzled expression on his face, and then looked at Pei Guangyi with a mysterious expression, and couldn't help tilting his head to show a curious expression.

"Hehe, just come with me." Pei Guangyi grinned, took Zhou Xueke's hand and said, "If you don't leave, you can only obediently go back and read your "Perch" and "Stone Shock" when the old man comes back." ”

"Ahh Zhou Xue shook her head vigorously, shook the two hair bags on her head, and her hair was draped down, which was quite beautiful.

"Haha, you look better like this." Pei Guangyi couldn't help but admire Zhou Xueke's long hair. The two of them climbed out of the courtyard and went straight into the distance.

Inner House.

"Something happened, does Mr. Jingzhong know?" The visitor looked flustered, waved his hand and retreated, and approached.

"I heard that Xuanwumen was performing that day." The gentleman frowned slightly.

"What kind of exercise?" The visitor glanced around, leaned closer and whispered: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin, give His Royal Highness the Crown Prince" said and slapped his right hand on the palm of his left hand and said: "General Feng and General Xue have fled now, and the East Palace has long been in chaos." ”

"Is there such a thing?" Mr. Jing Zhong was startled and asked, "Mr. Wei, are you not lying to me?" ”

"Why do you deceive you about this kind of thing?" The man said in an eager tone: "Although Gao Zu is still reigning now, this palace is already under the control of King Qin, and it is only a matter of time before Zen is conceded." What's even worse is that now King Qin has begun to beat our attention. I'm here today to send a message to my husband, hurry up and bring my family, and escape away while the matter is not too big. ”

"But Xue Ke girl, she" Mr. remembered that Zhou Xue Ke had sneaked out to have fun at this time, and hurriedly sent someone to look for it.

"Oh my husband." The man shook his head and said, "The prince is gone now, do you still care about a girl he arranged here?" Come with me out of the city and flee. ”

"Nope." Shi Jingzhong shook his head and said, "The prince treats me well, I can't bear him." I understand Brother Wei's kindness, and I ask Brother Wei to flee quickly, don't worry about Brother Wei because of someone Shi. ”

"Well, why are you so stubborn?" The man surnamed Wei took a step closer and said, "You don't want to think about it, this girl was personally ordered by Prince Jiancheng to arrange for you to study literature here, so her identity is naturally extraordinary." Now that the crown prince is dead, the Tang Dynasty is bound to fall into the hands of King Qin, if you sacrifice this girl," said with a strange smile on his face.

Shi Jingzhong was still worried about Zhou Xueke sneaking out to play at this time, but after listening to this man's words, he couldn't help but change his eyes. He took a few steps back, looked at the man in front of him and sneered: "I thought Brother Wei was here to persuade me to flee, but I didn't expect Brother Wei to come to persuade me to surrender!" ”

"No, no, no." The man surnamed Wei stepped forward, and Shi Jingzhong could already faintly see the cold sword in his long sleeves. "Good birds choose trees to perch, I just see that the two of us are in the same door, and I really don't want to see you in a different place. If you can come with me to Lee."

"Wei Shanren!" Shi Jingzhong shouted, flicked his long sleeves, took an iron fan in his hand and scolded: "Prince Jiancheng treats you and I am not thin, don't you feel ashamed to say these words today?" ”

"Don't pretend to be tall there!" Wei Shanren took out the long sword in his sleeve and pointed at Shi Jingzhong and said: "It's like this in the master's gate, it's really unpleasant to watch!" Li Jiancheng treats us well, but it is not very good, you and I fought bloody battles on the battlefield, born and died, and now the world is one, look at the two of us! A Pedagogue! A groom! I really don't understand! You are still willing to follow this kind of person, without being an official or rewarding money. You're happy, I'm not! ”

"Prince Jiancheng regards you and me as brothers, and he has long since distinguished from each other, and he himself does not value money, and knows that it is all outside his body, so he always distributes gold and silver to the homeless people, so that they can buy rice and meat, and buy fields and cattle. You and I can see this! Isn't such a prince exactly what the world needs? ”

"Humph! The world needs it, I don't need it! Wei Shanren sneered: "The world is bustling, all for profit." The world is crowded, all for profit. Since you refuse to cooperate with me, then I can only kill you and find the girl alone to find the King of Qin to receive the reward! Wei Shanren said, the long sword flashed, and the whole person instantly turned into a flash of lightning, roaring towards Shi Jingzhong.
