Out of the small courtyard, Xu Mingyuan followed Tang Xue to visit a few gardens with good scenery, and sat by the Qinhuai River for a while before returning to his residence.

With the foundation of the Xie family's thousand-year-old gate valve, although Xu Mingyuan and Liu Shaoqun saved Xie Shiqi, it was impossible for Xie Fangqian to accompany Xu Mingyuan and them all the time.

Moreover, the Xie family's scholarly family is mostly unwilling to deal with the people in the rivers and lakes, and invited a famous doctor to treat Liu Shaoqun's injuries, which can be regarded as a return of kindness.

Xu Mingyuan and Liu Shaoqun had dinner, and after knowing that Xu Mingyuan was unwilling to go far, he sent someone to the small courtyard where he lived, and there was a delicate maid for him to call.

There is no need to worry about food and clothing, anyway, there is nothing to do for the time being, Xu Mingyuan is not in a hurry to leave, he simply stayed in Xie Mansion, and waited for Wang Xusheng and them to prepare to leave when they arrived in Jiangnan Road.

Xie Fangqian probably guessed his identity as supervising the imperial history, so sometimes he would invite him to have a few glasses of wine and talk about the situation in the world. After all, supervising the imperial history patrol is not a private visit, and there is no need to hide it from anyone. And he won the top prize in this year's imperial examination, and Xie Fangqian knew that he was not a strange thing.

Tang Xue is running to his small courtyard every day these days, but fortunately, the two of them only stay in the courtyard, and the courtyard door is open, so that your maid can watch from the side, so as not to attract any gossip.

The people in the mansion are very fond of this young and dignified person, and I heard that his martial arts are also extremely high. After all, in this hierarchical Xie Mansion, although there is no evil lord who beats people, if you want to say that you are treating your subordinates as people, except for those two kind-hearted young ladies, this Xu Gongzi is one.

The inky black slate has been moved to Liu Shaoqun's residence, and Xie Shiqi, the third lady of the Xie family, often goes to Liu Shaoqun these days.

And Liu Shaoqun, whose injuries have healed a lot and can walk on the ground, has no intention of leaving.

Therefore, you can often see such a scene in that quiet courtyard: the young man in black is sitting under the tree, looking up at the sky through the gap in the leaves, and the third lady sitting on a chair in the courtyard is looking at the young man in black under the tree, smiling.

After Xu Mingyuan and Tang Xue bumped into this kind of scene once, the two looked at each other, and they both had an incomprehensible meaning, so they simply ran this way later.

As for sword practice, Tang Xue's talent is as bad as it was three years ago, and it seems that she wants to become a real chivalrous woman like his aunt, and there is probably no hope for her.

However, with the protection of the masters of the Xie family, as long as you don't provoke any great characters, you can pretend to be a so-called heroine in Jiangnan Province.

Ten days passed quickly, and that night, lying on the recliner in the yard, Xu Mingyuan, who was enjoying the cool breeze in autumn, saw a fireworks rising in Yangzhou City, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After staying in the Xie family for ten days, it is suitable to isolate the entire rivers and lakes, and hundreds of people in the rivers and lakes of Renjian South Road are looking for Liu Shaoqun, and no one dares to find the Xie family.

During this period, Xu Mingyuan also met Xie Jinyu, the old lady of the Xie family, of course, it was not the old man who came to thank him, but he and Tang Xue met when they were wandering around the house.

The old lady loves Tang Xue a lot, so after Tang Xue introduced Xu Mingyuan, she also said a few words to Xu Mingyuan.

For this old man, who was once the head of the province, the parents who had strongly opposed Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xie back then, and were considered the elders of his maternal grandfather, Xu Mingyuan still had some admiration.

The fireworks are a signal from the Yuntai Division, it seems that Wang Xusheng has arrived in Yangzhou, and it is time for him to leave the Xie Mansion.

Whispered out of his yard, walked towards Liu Shaoqun's yard, buckled the wooden door, and the door opened.

Xu Mingyuan looked at Liu Shaoqun who was walking in after opening the door, it seemed that he was also sitting in the courtyard before, otherwise he wouldn't have opened the door so quickly.

"Brother Liu, I'm leaving Xie Mansion tomorrow, I don't know if you will continue to stay here or leave with me." Entering the courtyard, Xu Mingyuan said straight to the point.

Now that Wang Xusheng has arrived in Yangzhou, it is impossible for him to continue to spend time in this Xie Mansion, although his supervision of the imperial history is only to be used as a cover for the purpose of this trip. But there are still some things that need to be done, after all, there are many high-ranking officials in Jiangnan Province, and it is unrealistic for Wang Xusheng to deal with it.

Recently, the relationship between Liu Shaoqun and Xie Shiqi is a little delicate, so he came to ask.

Liu Shaoqun's injuries have recovered a lot, and with his strength, even if he encounters a second-grade little grandmaster, he will be able to deal with it.

And after all, Liu Shaoqun is a great master who has been famous for ten years in the rivers and lakes, although he saved his life, but to say that Liu Shaoqun can follow him with this, Xu Mingyuan has not been narcissistic to this extent.

was able to make such a master owe himself a favor, and it was not in vain to save him that day. Walking on the rivers and lakes, backing the mountains is sometimes quite useful.

Liu Shaoqun glanced at Xu Mingyuan, was silent for a while, and said, "Let's go." ”

Still a concise answer, Xu Mingyuan looked at Liu Shaoqun and nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, then Brother Liu have a good rest, and we will leave Xie Mansion tomorrow." With that, he walked towards the outside of the courtyard.

Half an hour later, a firework rose by the Qinhuai River, there was no sound, as long as those who were not asleep, they would notice the fleeting fireworks.

Early the next morning, Xu Mingyuan got up and dressed neatly, lifted the green frost, and said a few words of laughter with the little maid Xiang'er who had dressed him for ten days, after washing, and had breakfast again, Tang Xue had already arrived outside the courtyard gate, walked in with a smile, and said with a smile: "Brother Mingyuan, what swordsmanship do we learn today, I have learned both styles you taught me last time." ”

"I won't teach it today." Xu Mingyuan put the chopsticks on the table, signaled Xiang'er to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, glanced at Tang Xue and said.

Hearing this, Tang Xue pouted and puzzled: "Why, didn't you say it yesterday?" ”

"Because I'm leaving today, I have to leave Xie Mansion." Xu Mingyuan spread his hands and said.

"Leave?" Tang Xue's good-looking eyebrows raised slightly, and she looked at Xu Mingyuan and wondered, "Why are you leaving all of a sudden?" Is it because the food in the house is not to the taste, or is it not used to living there? ”

Xu Mingyuan looked at Tang Xue, who was a little anxious, and his heart was slightly warm, and he shook his head with a smile and said: "No, here every day every day the mountains and seas, the lovely Xiang'er service, and the naughty Tangxue little girl, are a little reluctant to leave." ”

Listening to Xu Mingyuan's words, Tang Xue also showed a little smile on her face.

Xu Mingyuan turned his head and said again: "But when I came to Jiangnan this time, I didn't come to play with my master like I did at the beginning, and I still have things to do, so I've been delayed here for a lot of time, and it's time to get down to business." (To be continued.) )
