After Emperor Xiaozong Zhaoxue, Yue Zhen and Yue Ting were crowned as loyal candidates and continued loyal candidates, and the descendants of the Yue family were also rewarded before returning to normal life. Later, the great-ancestor of Yueyuan chose to live in Luoyang, and led his descendants and clansmen to build Yuejiazhuang, where they multiplied and lived, and they were all safe and sound for several generations.

Unexpectedly, in the third year of Taiding, Yuan Dazong Zhengfu Zalu Huchi received a secret report and learned that the secret of the hidden treasures of the previous dynasty was hidden in the "Wu Mu Testament", so he went to Yuejiazhuang several times to ask about it, and the deadline was ten days to hand over the "Wu Mu Testament".

Yue Yuan expected that the thieves would never give up, thinking that if they escaped, they would be constantly chased and killed, and there were people who were greedy for life and afraid of death after the king of E, and only by sacrificing themselves could they preserve the secret of the "Wu Mu Testament" and the safety of the clansmen. After making up his mind, he secretly arranged everything and left letters and objects to pass on to future generations.

Because there have always been eagle dogs outside the village, I wanted to let my wife take her daughter and the clansmen to leave Luoyang on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but because the news was leaked by the traitor, they were slaughtered all over the house.

Lord Cao Bao told everyone about this sad past, and everyone couldn't help but shed tears, all of them revered and admired the loyalty and courage of Yue Fei and his descendants.

"Because the orphan girl of the Yue family is young, and then I want to avoid danger and pursuit, I asked Lin Jiao to change her surname to Cao since she was a child, and Mrs. also loves it very much, and she takes care of Lin Jiao with all her obedience. Over the years, I have invited many talented people to teach her piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, martial arts, bow horses, although Lin Jiao is now eighteen years old, and she has rarely met opponents in the rivers and lakes, but after all, she is a woman, and this secret has not been told to her for the time being. ”

With a long sigh, the castle lord continued:

"Previously, Caojiabao was me and the Lord of the Thunder Banner who knew about this, and today we have sworn to become one, which is the secret of all of us, I think you will also be able to keep your oath and work together to continue and inherit the mission passed down by the martyrs with their lives and blood."

Everyone present was deeply moved by the loyalty of Lord Caobao, and once again swore that they would defend and keep this secret with their lives.

After reading Yue Yuanwai's last letter, Liu Ji asked:

"Dare to ask the castle master, if this "Wu Mu Testament" really hides the secret of the treasure of the previous dynasty, and the integrated organization can contribute funds, then the funds for river control that Ziwei Envoy is worried about are not a problem, right?"

"Yes, although it costs a lot of money to control the Yellow River, if this treasure of the previous dynasty is found, no matter how much money is spent on flood control and disaster relief, it should be no problem."

Zhang Dingbian also chimed in.

Lord Cao Bao frowned slightly, sighed again, and continued:

"Everyone has also read the rules and genealogy of the Yue family, and the "Wu Mu Testament" is only passed on to the descendants of the Yue family, and only the descendants of the Yue family can read it. In the past eighteen years, I have never opened this book, I just want Lin Jiao to grow up and start a family for her, so that the child can also follow her surname Yue, and then pass on this treasure book, only in this way can I be worthy of my late brother-in-law! ”

Thinking of rebelling brother, Lord Cao Bao couldn't help but burst into tears again.

Yuexia hurriedly comforted:

"Lord Caobao's benevolence and brotherhood are really admirable, your loyalty and hard work I think everyone can understand, we must respect the martyrs' wishes and family rules, and we must set up the rule of law river disaster relief as soon as possible, we still think about it again, see if there is any other good way?"

"Amitabha, the compassion and righteousness of Lord Cao Bao are hard to find in the world, and the righteousness and love for Lin Jiao outside the Yue Yuan can be seen in the sky! And don't be sad, what the old Dao Immortal said is very true, let's think of a way together. ”

The abbot of Wencai also enlightened repeatedly.

Qi Kun, Liu Ji, and Zhang Dingbian also agreed with Yuexiasuo's opinion.

After the lord of Cao Bao stored the sandalwood box, everyone walked out of the secret room together, but suddenly heard a few "grunts, grunts", and Jinnaro said embarrassedly:

"This belly is not angry, it makes everyone laugh."

The sound of gongs accompanied by the laughter of the crowd echoed in the corridor behind him.

The lord of Cao Bao knew that everyone had come all the way, and they must have been tired and hungry, so he hurriedly ordered everyone to prepare a meal and invited everyone to have lunch together.

Then, please go to the post house on the east side of the stone castle to rest, and make an appointment to come to the hall to narrate later.

Qi Kun was so worried that he couldn't sleep, and he didn't want to be bored in the house, so he strolled out of the room.

Next to the inn, a few crape myrtle trees are in full bloom, a road leads to the gate of the fort, the surrounding lawns and shrubs are neatly trimmed, and two bluestone paved paths pass through the fence to the central oval castle and the large garden at the back.

Still thinking about the fundraising for river control, Qi Kun unknowingly walked into the big garden in the south.

There are hundreds of crape myrtle trees planted here, several of which are thick and tall and lush and reach into the clouds, and it is now in bloom, and the entire garden is flooded with purple and red flowers.

Qi Kun couldn't help but be infected by this scenery, and his mood gradually became happy and relaxed.

As I walked, I heard someone applauding in front of me, it turned out that a few girls were watching the sword dance under the tree, and the soft figure of the dancer added a lot of color to this sea of flowers.

When he came closer to see it, he couldn't help but applaud it, and the girls turned around and looked at the uninvited guest in amazement.

The purple-clothed girl who was dancing the sword also stopped, her long hair fluttering in the wind, and her body was light.

I saw that she was beautiful and elegant, her complexion was extremely beautiful, about seventeen or eighteen years old, her eyes were clear, her eyebrows and nose were trimmed, and her cheeks were slightly pear-ed, which was really beautiful. The soft light reflected by the sea of purple-red flowers reflected on her face, making her complexion even more crystal clear and soft as jade.

Qi Kun looked closely, but felt as if he was familiar.

When the girl in purple saw Qi Kun in a daze, she was so embarrassed that her face was hot and flushed, and she hurriedly lowered her head and turned around, and quickly flashed to the depths of the sea of flowers.

When a green-clothed girl next to her saw this scene, she thought it was a prayer that Qi Kun had taken away the woman in purple, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and look at each other angrily, and said:

"Where did the madman come from, he dared to trespass into the back garden, peep at the holy aunt dancing the sword, and watch me gouge out your eyes to make amends to the holy aunt."

Before the words fell, he stretched out two fingers and struck Qi Kun's face. Qi Kun was not proficient in martial arts, so he instinctively lowered his head and stretched out his hand to cover his eyes, but when he saw that the girl in the green shirt changed her fingers to palm and did not retract her momentum, she actually hit Qi Kun in the chest, kicking, kicking, kicking and being beaten back a few steps, almost wanting to fall.

Qi Kun staggered a few steps before he came to his senses and explained awe-inspiringly:

"I think, the girls must have misunderstood, the first time I saw so many crape myrtle flowers, blooming so gorgeously, I followed the path from the post house to the garden, there was no notice and no one stopped me all the way, how can it be called trespassing? How can it be voyeurism? ”

"You just said that it was the Holy Aunt who danced the sword, may I ask if it is Cao Linjiao, the daughter of the Lord of Cao Castle?" Qi Kun asked instead.

The green-shirted girl said angrily:

"How can you call the name of the Holy Aunt casually, I don't think it hurts, otherwise you won't be able to remember the rules of this castle."

After saying that, he waved his palm and wanted to step forward.

At this time, there was a sound of stopping cheers in the distance:

"Qing'er must not be unreasonable, stop quickly."

With a sound like a silver bell, the girl in purple floated in, and by this time she had put on her veil, and said softly:

"I don't know if it's too much, please go back."

Then he turned around and told the three girls to leave slowly.

Qi Kun woke up like a dream, patted his head, and thought to himself, no wonder he felt so familiar, it turned out to be really her. Seeing that they had already walked away, he turned around and returned to the inn.

The three girls here turned around and walked away with Linjiao, and Qing'er kept chattering:

"Holy aunt, I really didn't know that you knew this son, otherwise I wouldn't have beaten him, and I didn't want to be angry for you. Alas, he carries a long sword on his back but doesn't know martial arts, don't you say strange? Holy aunt, how do you know him? ”

Lin Jiao somehow, she felt extremely shy today, but fortunately, her red apple-like face was covered by a veil, and she whispered:

"You're not bothered, you ask so many questions, and you don't bother to pay attention to it."

The girl in the yellow shirt on the side smiled and continued:

"Qing'er, you're in trouble, your quick temper hasn't changed, go back and see how you are punished."

"How do I know, it's not that I'm afraid that the bad guy will be angry with the Holy Aunt, so I made a move." Qing'er's face was full of grievances.

The girl in the white shirt on the left laughed and said:

"Bad guys? Hmph, this Qi Kun Gongzi is a very good person, and the Holy Aunt saved his life that day! ”

Lin Jiao couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard it in front, turned her head and said:

"Orange, Cher, don't say any more, go back quickly." With that, he quickened his pace and shook them off.

Qing'er hurriedly pleaded:

"Okay Xue'er, tell me quickly, tell me what's going on, how big a good person? What's the name of the child? How did it save his life? Please, say it quickly, I'm in a hurry..."

Qi Kun returned to the post house and saw Yuexia Suo and Abbot Wencai talking about something on the side of the horse road, on the other side, Jin Naluo and Zhang Dingbian seemed to be comparing and learning martial arts, and Liu Ji was standing on the side with his chest hugging and watching, obviously everyone was waiting for Qi Kun.

Hurriedly walked a few steps and said:

"I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting."

When everyone saw that Qi Kun had returned, they all gathered together, and Yuexia said:

"It's okay, can Ziwei make a rest? We're going to go to the hall and talk to the castle lord again. ”

Qi Kun replied:

"Fortunately, I'm not tired, but I can't sleep for a while with things in my heart, so I turned to the garden and looked at the crape myrtle flowers in the garden, which is really beautiful!"

Everyone laughed and laughed, and they came to the central castle again. Lei Ming was already waiting here, invited everyone to come into the hall and sit down, sent someone to serve tea fruits, and said that the castle master would come over soon after dealing with a little matter.

Qi Kun is explaining to everyone, and together with Jia Lu, he reports the imperial court's plan for river control.

At this time, Lord Cao Bao led two people into the hall, one was Cao Linjiao in purple, and the other was dressed in a quality grandson suit, about twenty-three or four, heroic and strong.

Lord Cao Bao introduced to everyone with a smile:

"This virtuous nephew is the son of my brother in Yingzhou, named Liu Futong, who has a bold personality and great ambitions since childhood, although he was born into a wealthy family, he can sympathize with the suffering of the people, and often help the poor people with righteousness and wealth.

He heard that my Caojiabao was giving porridge to the people everywhere, so he discussed with his father, donated a lot of silver taels, and today sent a large amount of relief food. ”
