After being carried all the way, he finally put it down, and the old man quietly opened one eye to test the enemy's situation.

"Enough rest, right?"

Without warning, the old man shivered with fright and sat up silently from the ground.

"My lord, I was wrong!"

Song Yiyao didn't expect him to be so cooperative, and originally wanted to wait for the day, but since this is the case, he simply asked:

"By whom?"

The old man hurriedly said:

"Xuanshen! My lord, it was Xuanshen who found me to help him! ”

"Xuanshen has been dead for two months." Qu Lian, who followed up, said angrily.

"It's good that Xuanshen has been dead for two months, but my lord, before he died, he found me! The villain does this business,"

Speaking of this, Song Yiyao took the pen and recorded his hand. It is clearly stipulated in the law of the Great Zhou that it is forbidden to marry a yin relative. It seems that this man is still a habitual offender.

The old man consciously said that he leaked his mouth, and after a while, he changed his words: "The villain has learned some Taoism, and he usually just prays for people to drive away evil spirits or something, and takes over small business." ”

It was a light rainy night, there were no pedestrians on the street, there was no business all day, Wang Laodao sighed and was about to close.

Suddenly, a pale hand pressed against the door panel.

Wang Laodao was startled, looked up, and saw an unexpected person.

The name and appearance of Xuanshen are known to everyone in the entire Shuncheng. Since childhood, he has been widely praised for his writings. But when people say these two words, they will always mention a pity.

It's a pity that I'm weak, it's a pity that I'm sick, it's a pity, that talent.

"Take over the business?" Under the umbrella, Genzan smiled mildly. But now Wang Laodao recalls it, and he only feels creepy.

Xuanshen took out a whole stack of silver tickets and placed them on the mahogany table. That was the money that Wang Laodao could only earn for several years.

"What does Xuan Gongzi want to do with Lao Dao?"

Xuanshen's pale and cool lips gently spit out two words: "Yin kiss." ”

Wang Laodao has not taken this kind of work in private, it is simple and easy to make money, he took the silver ticket with joy, and the whole person relaxed.

"To whom?"

"Give it to me." Xuan Shen said these two words expressionlessly, and when he saw the frightened Wang Laodao, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile of unknown meaning. I put down two more copies of the eight characters of my birthday.

Later, I heard the news of the death of Xuanshen.

On the day of the funeral, all the streets of Shuncheng Avenue were full of white flowers, and Wang Laodao secretly hid in the crowd to watch. The two words that I hear the most are just a pity.

When the long funeral procession finally passed, revealing the crowd of onlookers across the street, and in front of the crowd, Xuan Shen stood there laughing, and then as if sensing his gaze, he made eye contact with him.

has been doing this business for many years, and Wang Laodao has seen not hundreds, but dozens of ghosts. He has seen all kinds of ghosts, some crying, some clamoring and not wanting to leave, some angry, and some resentful.

But it's the first time I've seen a ghost smiling at his corpse so calmly. It was as if it was just a shell that limited him, and he was finally freed.

Wang Laodao didn't say a lie, Qu Lian was terrified to the extreme anger since she knew about it, like falling into an ice cave, and her hands and feet were cold.

She wanted to ask why, why it was her, why she refused to let her go.

The ginseng that can be taken away is destined not to give her an answer.

In Xuanshen's memory, he has had no friends since he was a child, and since he can remember, he will be secretly ridiculed and bullied behind his back because he is weak and sick, can't fit in, can't play, and can't play.

In fact, in the final analysis, it's because of jealousy, jealousy of his young fame, jealousy of everyone's love for him.

He always remembered that when he was a child, he was pushed into the pool by his cousin, and all the children stood by the pool laughing. As long as there is a child king, there must be the one who is isolated, ridiculed and bullied. And he is that person.

He gritted his teeth and crawled out desperately. Covered in water, he lay on the ground coughing and was embarrassed.

Only her, only half a person tall, handed over a handkerchief, and her voice was glutinous.

If there is light, hope, and an existence in this world that doesn't hate him so much, it must be her.

Later, Xuan Shen took revenge and went back, in his own way. Let those children, all pay the price. Only Qu Lian was left in his heart.

The cat, one of his favorites, stretched out its paws and scratched him. When he came back to his senses, Qu Lian was around the corner behind him.

The side that is trying to hide is exposed like this. She must have been frightened by her kindness, right? But when Xuan Shen was worried, he couldn't help but think that he was such a person. She always has to take it. Because she is destined to belong only to herself.

So I can't help but scare her, and I disguise myself enough in front of everyone, but I am the most cruel to her. Watching her get scared into a cold sweat, watching her scared and trying to hide. Watching her be frightened to dodge was like seeing the first cat to die at his hands.

"Actually," Wang Laodao glanced at Qu Lian, not knowing whether to say it or not.

Both looked at him, waiting for the next step.

Let's do one more good thing! He took a deep breath and said:

"Actually, the day after Xuan Gongzi found me, I went to check whose birthday he gave me.

At that time, I found out to the matchmaker, and it seemed that because Xuan Gongzi was seriously ill, Mrs. Qu began to look for a new marriage partner for Miss Qu at that time. It is said that it is the little son of the Zeng family. ”

After listening to his words, Qu Lian's expression was very calm, she knew who Zeng Xiaogongzi was. I also secretly knew about it.

Zeng Xiaogongzi's name is Zeng Jue, and he is the only son of the Zeng family, the richest merchant in the city. Old Master Zeng is old and has a son, and he almost puts Zeng Xiaogongzi on the tip of his heart.

Although everyone calls him Zeng Xiaogongzi, he is actually the biggest gentleman in Shuncheng. I don't know anything about poetry, books and articles, and I'm afraid what I'm best at is drinking wine and sprinkling gold.

Despite the family background, the families with some backgrounds in Shuncheng avoid this family business.

Even in the gambling stalls, there is a perennial gambling game, betting that Zeng Jue can last a few years after the death of Master Zeng. The options are one to four. Because everyone thinks that Zeng Jue can't last five years.

At that time, when the news came out, everyone thought that Zeng Jue would make trouble. It is said that Zeng Jue laughed when he found out, and ordered someone to go to the money village to get 10,000 copper coins. All smashed into the game to bet. threatened that the Zeng family will always be the Zeng family and will not fall.

It is said that the money received in that gambling game alone is hundreds of thousands of taels, and Master Zeng has been living well.

The current Mrs. Qu is Su Niang. Her good vegetarian girl found such a gentleman for her. A man who was happy to buy a green house and angry was angry and threw money to trick people.

It's not good, it's not bad, it's for the sake of the Qu family anyway. So no one cares if she lives or dies,

Although Song Yiyao has been here for a short time, he still knows some rumors about this gentleman who is famous throughout the Great Zhou. She wanted to persuade her, but she didn't know where to start.

Qu Lian understood what he wanted to say and stopped, and suddenly felt relieved about all this, there are still good people in this world.

"Lord Song doesn't have to worry about me, I'm not the kind of person who is bullied."

"That's good, if Miss Qu needs my help in the future,"

Song Yiyao was halfway through his words, remembering that the distance between Shuncheng and the imperial city was not close, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Instead, Qu Lian took her words with a smile: "He will come to visit the Imperial City one day, and I hope that Lord Song will not forget me." ”

is also a hearty woman, Song Yiyao smiled in response.

Although a case was secretly handled overnight, the day of the rush could not be delayed.

In the early morning, the streets of Shuncheng were unexpectedly bustling, full of people, and the crowded crowd was waiting for them. They all looked in the direction of the castle guard's house.

Song Yiyao refused the farewell of the city guard and other officials, and got into the carriage with Tang Jingruo.

The eyelids are groggy and the fight can't be stopped. The head is also planted and wants to fall.

Tang Jingruo, who had also not slept all night, looked in good spirits, sat beside her, and when her head was about to be planted again, he caught it and put it on his shoulder.

Song Yiyao smelled the familiar cold fragrance and sobered up a lot, but he didn't want to open his eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled.

"The people of Shuncheng are here, send off your lords! Thank you, for your kindness! ”

An old voice sounded from outside the carriage, and Song Yiyao was startled and almost missed his head.

She lifted the curtain of the carriage, and there was a dense crowd of people and the children.

That old man was the one who couldn't find his grandson in the first place. And at this moment, he was holding his grandson's hand tightly and bowing down to her.

Outside the carriage, there was a tide of thanks, Song Yiyao stared at them and persuaded them to get up.

These days, she has been feeling very uncomfortable. The children in the troupe were also picked up by her. All those who were sold have been recovered, but she is still sad because of the children who could not wait for rescue, because the parents of those who could not find their children. Because even those children who survive will be left with this nightmare.

Because those injured children can only face an incomplete life.

She can't change the tragedy that has happened, she can only let the murderer let the prisoner get the punishment he deserves. I can only try to make every child compensated, and I can only try my best to find the bones of every child, find the lost souls, and send them to reincarnation.

More than once, parents who couldn't find their children confronted her and asked why, but she couldn't answer, so she could only apologize over and over again and say sorry I was late.

When things don't break out and aren't noticed, no one knows what will be hidden. No one knows if there is endless darkness beneath a small patch of dark spots.

But it would be wrong for such a thing to happen.

This was the fault of the magistrate who supervised one side and the dereliction of duty of the imperial court. And she represents the government and the imperial court.

She didn't feel how great she was for saving so many children, she just felt sorry for the children who were not saved.

The carriage did not stop, and continued to drive out of the city. The procession of spontaneous departures by the people was endless, although most of them had nothing to do with the case. But they are still grateful. Thank you for pulling out this cancer, and thank you for never having such a terrible and terrifying place in the future. Thank you to them for saving so many children. Thank you to them for allowing more children to survive.

Song Yiyao lowered the curtain with red eyes. The other red-eyed monster in the car was trying to widen his eyes and pretend to be indifferent.

Song Yiyao has taken too many mistakes on himself, and Tang Jingruo has been watching it these days. But there is no place for persuasion.

Afraid that puncturing her smile would make her even more sad. So I worked hard to accompany her. Find all sorts of things to bother her. Even if it's just a mutual fight, it's also a vent.

A neatly folded handkerchief appeared in front of him. The moon-white silk handkerchief is embroidered with branches and peach blossoms, or the sentence that the mountains have trees and branches, which is prepared by the old housekeeper, and the style of the little marquis is as always.

When Song Yiyao, who was originally sad, saw this handkerchief, he suddenly felt weak.

The handkerchief was still hidden in his place. However, "exactly the same? ”

The words without a head and tail still made Tang Jingruo understand. He explains:

"When I received a birthday gift, Ah Ran once gave me a handkerchief like this, and I have always used it. The old butler thought that I liked this, and did exactly the same thing. ”

Song Yiyao's eyes glanced at Tang Jingruo's waist, and sure enough, the jade carving was also given by Ah Ran.

Xiao Hou Ye is a person who values feelings, and he has always been a brother and sister to Ah Ran.

Song Yiyao has always known this. She secretly calculated the eight characters of the two people, which is a match that there is no match in heaven and earth. But Ah Ran's eight characters are not similar to her own.

She never thought she would be jealous because of a person, but now she just eats. It's such a strange thing to like, it can make people become clueless and inexplicable.

Tang Jingruo followed her gaze and lowered her head and picked up the jade carving: "Like it?" ”

Song Yiyao was left behind for a moment, and sat upright. The handkerchief that had already followed was also thrown back. Sure enough, the little marquis is still the little marquis.

"When I get back to the Imperial City, I'll carve one for you."

Song Yiyao turned his head and was covered by a white expanse.

Tang Jingruo picked up the handkerchief and carefully wiped her tears.

"If you return to the Imperial City with swollen eyes, they will definitely think that I beat you. I can't help a few claws of the golden group, and what about the master, what if I attract a few evil ghosts to scare me. ”

There was a smile in the familiar low voice, seriously amusing her. Obviously, I was very sad just now.

As if she was so fragile alone, Song Yiyao muttered unconvinced:

"Little Hou Ye, has anyone ever told you that your eyes are so big, it's obvious that you've cried!"

"What did you say?"

The handkerchief was taken off, and he faced the face that was very exciting whenever he looked at it, although he was a little haggard, and there was a black green left under his eyes because he hadn't slept well.

When he scolded the little marquis, Song Yiyao didn't have the courage to say it a second time, and it was not enough to give her three guts. Well...... Before, it was Emperor Tiangao, but now she is going back to the imperial city, she really doesn't dare to do such a thing under the emperor's nose.

What if, what if the emperor feels that the two of them are not compatible, thinks that she bullied the little marquis, and doesn't let the little marquis be her guard......
