Shao Xu came to Cuihua Pavilion, leaned on the door and went in, only to see Shao Huding sitting on the bookcase, his face solemn. "Father" Shao Xu said with a guilty face.

"Yes, you have studied the scriptures well recently, and your father has already said to Mr. Tian, you can go back to Yuezhou in a few days, and then go to the old gentleman to be taught." After Shao Xu heard this, he was first afraid, and then he was very angry in his heart, and he remained in place for a long time. Shao Hu saw his son standing there for a long time without speaking, and he also knew a thing or two in his heart.

"He'er, have you ever written to your teacher these days when you returned home?" Shao Hu saw that Shao Xu didn't say a word, and said with a sigh of relief: "Since you have returned, you will stay at home for a while and then go to Yuezhou to visit Mr. Tian. ”

Shao Xu reacted for a long time, and hurriedly bowed down and replied: "The child must follow his father's teachings, and his father has bothered for his son, and the child must be familiar with the classics and cultivate himself." ”

"Then go back, if you have nothing to do in the near future, you can go to the city and walk around by yourself, and you don't have to rush your homework." Shao Hu looked out the window and said. "Thank you for your father's care, the child has retired." After Shao Xu finished speaking, he retreated and went out.

Shao Xu walked in the house, as if he had lost his soul, whether his father knew or not, it was not so important to him, he had perseverance and unwillingness in his eyes, and he thought that he already had an idea in his heart.

Two days later, all the children came to the Linxing Pavilion and sat cross-legged on their seats waiting for Tao Jingzhi. Shao Xu didn't have the confusion in his eyes, just sat quietly. Soon, Tao Jingzhi came slowly, and his outfit was still so simple and casual. He didn't say much today, but after a few words, he asked everyone to hand in the comments on the opinions they had asked to write before, and signaled that the children could leave, and everyone retreated one after another, whether fast or slow. Shao Xu slowly walked towards Tao Jingzhi, bowed respectfully and thanked him, and after handing over the annotated text of his opinion to him, he opened his mouth and said: "Tao Gong, I can't come to sit down tomorrow to listen to your teachings, and I hope Tao Gong will forgive me." ”

"The fame is in front of you, it's a pity to abandon it now, I hope you think about it more." Tao Jingzhi looked at Shao Xudao.

"The things of the family are better than the name of the individual, and the late Mu Tao Gong is very knowledgeable, and he can be taught a thing or two under the Tao Gong seat, and he is already content." Shao Xu bowed and said. "Who are you?" Tao Jingzhi asked. "My father is the Duke of Xingguo, so I can't call my father by his name in the later years, and I shouldn't have said these common names in front of Gong Tao." Tao Jingzhi looked a little surprised and said: "These vulgar etiquette are unhindered, I never thought that you were the son of a famous general in Yongzhou back then, Shao Hu was famous back then, but it was slowly forgotten over the years." After a period of greetings, Shao Xu bowed down to say goodbye, Tao Jingzhi looked at the departing figure of the young man, without sighing, such as careful consideration, entrusted with reuse, and it will become a great tool in time. Unexpectedly, his father was still the commander of the famous earthquake side before, the more Shao Xu thought about it, the more he felt wronged, it would be great if he could also threaten the battlefield one day.

At this time, a maid came to the door of Shao's house, looking for the third son of the Shao family, the servant said that the son was not there, and wanted to drive him back, but the maid insisted on not complying, and had to see the third son. The servant was a little annoyed and was about to push and scold, just as Shao Xu returned. The maid shouted loudly after hearing this: "Shao Gongzi, my young lady has a ......." Seeing this, the servants hurriedly stepped forward to stop the maid's noise, why are you little girl so noisy, the three servants want to drive away the annoying little maid before Shao Xu hears it. Childe ~ Childe, Shao Xu felt strange when he heard it, so he turned around and went out to take a look, only to see a few servants pushing a maid.

What are you doing, what is a group of people bullying a girl, the servants are all frightened and sweaty. Hurriedly explained: "Third son, this girl is so noisy, she has to leave, saying that she is here to find the third son." "Go in. Little girl, why did you come to me, I have never seen you. "My young lady has an accident, and I am Miss Pan's personal maid." "But pity, Shao Xu's expression became flustered." The maid nodded, and Shao Xu immediately asked what the specific matter was, but the maid said that she didn't know what was going on, but her young lady asked her to come to Shao Xu. After listening, Shao Xu's expression softened a little, it should be no big deal, just a small fuss. But I still have to go to see Li'er, if there is anything I can help, Shao Xu thought to himself, so he asked the maid to lead the way to find Li'er.

Miss, Miss, I brought Shao Gongzi over, and the maid knocked on an empty tile cylinder road. With a bang, a head poked out of the clay pot. "Brother Xu, why did you come, Li'er is about to get sick here." "I, I just went out of the house, and I rushed over as soon as I got back to the house, Li'er, what happened to you, making such a mess." Shao Xu asked with a slight frown. "It's okay, I just remembered that my brother promised me that he would meet one of my requests no matter what, and now I have to honor it." This~ I ....... Good... Well, even if I should do it, there is nothing to shirk, so you can tell me what is going on now. "Brother Xu~ Can you take Li'er out of the imperial capital, Li'er looked a little sad." "Li'er, have you caused some trouble?" Shao Xu's face immediately became more and more solemn, and his eyes were full of horror and uneasiness. "I thought Brother Xu would promise me without hesitation, but it turns out that you are just lying to me, liar, liar." Shao Xu looked at Li'er's angry and helpless expression, and couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and his mind was like being coaxed by a burst of thunder, echoing with bursts of sounds, and it was blank. "You~ I misread you, liar who doesn't keep promises." Li'er cried and said, her pink, peach-like face flashed with a little tears, which made people feel distressed when they saw it. Shao Xu couldn't bear his heart anymore, so he responded. I'll take you out of here for now, but you'll have to tell me what is going on when you're out of town. After hearing this, Li'er nodded and threw herself into Shao Xu's arms, Shao Xu's face turned red in an instant, like a soldering iron burned red by fire, and he didn't move for a long time, he was afraid that Li'er would disappear as soon as he moved, afraid that it was just a dream. Brother Xu, Li'er is the only one you can rely on, will you always be by Li'er's side? Looking at Li'er like this, Shao Xu couldn't bear to refuse, and then hugged her. Don't worry, I will always be by Li'er's side, Shao Xu said affectionately. Shao Xu placed the two of them in the peach forest outside the city, and went back to the house to get some coils, and when he wanted to leave the house, he bumped into Shao Xi and returned to the house, and when he saw the panicked younger brother, he stopped and asked a few words, and then did not ask in detail, and went out of the house by himself.

In the peach blossom forest outside the city----- Li'er carefully hid in the bushes, poking her head out and watching, for fear that someone from the house would catch her. There was a sound of sand ~ sand ~ sand ~ sand not far away, and Lian'er was a little flustered, and hurriedly shouted to the little girl: "Ruxiang, go outside and take a look, don't make too much noise." The little maid got up slowly and slowly "moved" out. Looking obliquely through the branches, I vaguely saw the figure of a man, but I couldn't see it really from a distance, I stayed closer, and saw my face clearly, the little maid was a little surprised, and the poor who was squatting in the distance was very anxious, and went to the maid regardless of the situation. Rue, rue. Li'er called quietly.

"Come out, it's me." A familiar voice came, almost scaring her out, but when she looked closely, it turned out to be her brother Pan Yao.

"Brother, why did you come here, is it ........." "I have been to Shao Mansion to ask, and it is said that the third prince is not in the mansion, and he followed a little maid, according to your temperament and Xiao Xu, I have roughly guessed that you must be here."

"Brother, I don't want to marry the prodigal son of the Tian family, I'd rather die than do this, Brother Xu has promised to take me out of here."

"Li'er, you have to think clearly, you are still young, some things should not be impulsive, the consequences are not something you can think of, do you think Xiao Xu is willing to abandon the family and wander the world with you? How many hardships have been along the way, and how much do you know? Pan Yao said with a serious face. Li'er looked aggrieved, with tears in her eyes, and looked at Pan Yao pitifully. Pan Yao is also very reluctant to see this sister who has always loved him, seeing that he has been mistaken by such a gentleman, and he is extremely unwilling to see it, but ...... There is no way to have both worlds.

At this time, Shao Xu left the house and stepped on the horse and went out of the city, always feeling uneasy in his heart, afraid that something would happen if he went slowly, so as to live up to the beauty of a piece of sincerity.

With the sound of horses' hooves, a team of men and horses galloped out of the city gate, and there were about twenty people and horses. One of the leading people, Le Ma, shouted: "Ji Gang, you lead some people to the south, go to the front to find out if there is any news of Miss, and the rest of the people and I will search carefully around." Everyone stopped, and after listening, they replied in unison: "It's all up to Manager Zhang's arrangement." Then I'll go to the south to investigate, and I'll let you know if there's any news of the young lady," Ji Gang said. After saying this, the group was divided into two groups and drove away.

Shao Xu was very uneasy after leaving the house, the third brother looked nervous today, there must be something strange in it, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and then rushed back to the house, just Shao Xu had just left the house, and asked the next person, all of whom said that the third prince had just left the house and went to the south gate of the city. Shao Xi didn't stop for a moment, and led the three servants to the direction of the south city gate.

At this time, Shao Xu rode his horse into the small peach forest, and went forward for a while, when he suddenly heard a man's voice in his ears, he couldn't help but be shocked, it was not that the poor child was in danger, and he kicked the horse's belly with his legs in a panic, and the horse was frightened as if he was frightened, and rushed straight to the tight place in front of the bushes, accompanied by a long neigh, the horse was stuck by the branches, and there was a long blood mark on the horse's hind legs. Seeing this, Shao Xu immediately dismounted and rushed in the direction where the sound came from.

"Mercy, mercy," Shao Xu exclaimed in a hurry. "Brother, it's because my brother is here, and if he really comes, I will say that he won't lie to Pian Er in this world." Li'er said happily, she had been looking forward to Shao Xu taking her away from this place where she was wronged. Pan Yao seemed to be relieved, and replied slowly: "It's okay if Xiao Xu is here, you have already made plans, you can't protect you all your life as a brother, if the two of you are sincere, I will be relieved." "Brother, I ........" Li'er," Shao Xu interrupted Li'er's words with a call. "Brother Xu, Li'er is here."

Shao Xu heard Li'er's voice, there was no sense of panic in his voice, after thinking about it carefully, could it be that he came? It should have been him, so he was relieved and turned into the path between the branches.

"Li'er, Brother Ziheng," Shao Xu shouted to the two in front of him. Brother, it's my brother who came, and I said he would come. Pan Yao nodded, although he didn't say anything, his face also had a look of joy. "Xiao Xu, are you going to kidnap and take away Li'er!" Pan Yao shouted. "This.... Brother Ziheng, I, I just don't want to let my child be wronged and hurt. "Do you know what grievances are and what hurts are?" Pan Yao's voice softened and asked. Shao Xu opened his mouth and was about to reply, Pan Yao looked at his expression, and without waiting for him to answer, he immediately said, "Do you know how many people you two will be involved in this trip?" Don't you know how much is involved in this, Xiao Xu! Xiao Xu". Shao Xu didn't understand in his heart that he and Li'er were comparable to ordinary people, and the intertwined forces and families behind them would run away if ordinary people ran away, and it would not cause a sensation in Dijing. Shao Xu suppressed all the worries and worries in his mind, I can't care so much now, what kind of family and state affairs do I care, as long as I have mercy, but this must not be said. Shao Xu hung his mouth wide open, but he couldn't say anything, only looked straight at Pan Yao. "I.... I won't let go of Li'er alone, I hope that Brother Ziheng can fulfill me and Li'er, and I will definitely not fail Pi'er in this life, otherwise I will "......" You don't have to say it", Pan Yao said to Shao Xu.

"Okay, you two go together, since you have made up your mind, if I forcibly split it, it will inevitably be a bit of a stick, so let's go and explore the way for you first, I'm afraid there are many people looking for mercy at this time." "Brother Ziheng, affectionate and kind, it is my luck to be able to make a righteous person like my brother in this life, and I am determined to protect my pity for the rest of my life." "I can be so I am relieved, then I will go first, you two are waiting for the opportunity to move, I have sent someone to leave a mark in front, leave some things for the road, I hope you two will cherish it." After speaking, Pan Yao jumped on his horse and ran with his whip. "Brother ~ thank you"; "Brother Ziheng cherishes it." I don't know when I'll see you after a long time, and my brother will not pay what you entrust! Shao Xu and Li'er shouted at Pan Yao's figure as he walked farther and farther away, and the two snuggled together. Pan Yao's tears swirled in his eyes, this parting should be happy, the horse seemed to understand the master's heart, neighed a few times, and the four iron hooves quickly stepped on the ground, and the dust raised gradually covered Shao Xu and Li'er's sight, until the figure gradually blurred and disappeared into the dust.
