In a small alley in this dwelling, there is a small courtyard of three or four houses at the end, the original owner of the yard is Fengxiang, the owner will rent out the yard when he returns to his hometown, a new family moved in a month ago, they rarely go out, only a little maid often comes out to buy vegetables and rice, and the owner of this family has hardly been seen, but there seems to be something contradictory in this family these days, I often hear the roar of a young man, and the bitter pleading of two women, but the yard is hidden in the deep alley, It was difficult for passers-by to hear their noise.

This family is Mrs. Luo's family who escaped from Broken Leaves, that is, Li Qing'an's nominal brother Li Jue, one of the two women is Mrs. Luo, and the other is Princess Heyi who escaped from Ning Yuanguo and did not want to return to the sect, she is now called Ning Qingyi, and there is also a little maid, a total of four people live in this hidden courtyard.

Here we need to explain their experience, it should be last year, after they escaped from the broken leaves, they hid in Anding County, Jingzhou, Guanzhong, they brought out a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, enough for the rest of their lives, Mrs. Luo just liked the name of the county, so they went there, in Anding County they bought a house, in order not to sit on the mountain, they also bought 200 acres of farmland, rented to tenants to collect rent, soon after living, under the auspices of Mrs. Luo, Li Jue married Ning Qingyi as his wife, there is one thing that needs to be explained, It stands to reason that they are all of the same clan as the surname Li and cannot get married, but because Ning Qingyi has always concealed her identity as a princess, and she herself is a member of the Li family, in order to keep each other's secrets, they got married.

But no matter how beautiful the poppy is, its essence is also sinful, as time goes by, Li Jue gradually gets tired of his wife, Ning Qingyi can no longer control her husband, Li Jue's children's surname begins to be exposed day by day, the book is no longer read, and the whole day is mixed with a group of county rangers, learned to gamble, learned to drink flower wine, he spent a lot of money, in less than a year, he squandered the property brought out by his mother, and owed a lot of debts, the creditors took away their houses and land, and drove them out of the house, At this time, Li Jue cried bitterly to his mother and wife, promising that he would change his mind and be a new person, and his mother and wife finally forgave him, but they had no family property and no support, so they had to leave Anding and come to Chang'an to make a living.

They have been in Chang'an for a month, seeing that the money from selling jewelry is about to run out, the embarrassment of the family and the future survival problems make the family begin to have contradictions, and there is a quarrel, mainly the contradiction between Li Jue and his wife, he asked Ning Qingyi to go to her mother's house for help, but Ning Qingyi refused, the contradiction finally broke out the day before yesterday, the cause was the visit of the local security in the workshop, I heard that Li Jue could read and write, so he enthusiastically introduced him to a job to teach in the school, which is also a decent job, Mrs. Luo and Ning Qingyi both strongly persuaded him, But Li Jue didn't want to go, he wanted to go to the Han and Tang Dynasty to seek funding, but was resolutely opposed by his mother and wife, but Li Jue insisted on going, as a last resort, Mrs. Luo finally told the truth about the escape, and now the owner of the Hidden Dragon Society, Li Jue's brother, is Li Qing'an, who learned the truth, Li Jue was furious, he was like a child who was robbed of his beloved toys, and began to have hysterical seizures, he scolded his mother and wife for hiding him, so that he lost his happy life, for a few days, he was furious, Although his mother repeatedly persuaded him that for the sake of his life, he could no longer strive to be the young master of the Hidden Dragon Society, and that he had broken away from that organization, so he must not go to the net again.

But Li Jue did not give up, thinking of the brocade clothes and jade food in the past, thinking of the piles of women in the past, thinking of the carved beams and painted pillars in the past, and now they can only drink gruel, live in a dilapidated house, count the stars until dawn, the strong gap makes him become hysterical, yelling at his mother all day long, at this moment he has completely forgotten his own squishment and loser, it seems that all the responsibility is because his mother recognized the so-called ' Big brother', his miserable life today was caused by his mother, and the anger in his heart made him also angry with his wife, who dragged him down.

Early in the morning, when he saw another bowl of unpalatable wheat porridge for breakfast, he had another seizure, "Bang! With a bang, he slammed the porridge bowl on the ground, the bowl shattered, and he pointed to his frightened mother and wife and yelled: "Are you feeding the pigs? Lao Tzu is a human being, and after he became a prince in a dignified manner, he actually let me eat pig food, you two women ruined my life, do you still want to insult me with pig food? ”

Mrs. Luo trembled, she suddenly burst into tears, covered her face and ran into the house, Ning Qingyi was also extremely painful, she stepped forward and knelt in front of her husband and cried: "There are only four hundred yuan at home, you can still eat rice at night, but my mother and I have a meal of wheat porridge, it's been a month, husband, you really don't want to be a teacher, we are not reluctant, my mother and I have already discussed, we are ready to wash clothes for people, save some money and then set up a stall to do small business, I will get better soon, husband, you can bear with it again!" Mother is already bitter enough. ”

"She deserves it! Who told her to escape from the broken leaves, who told her to be rich and noble, your stupidity has dragged me down, do you want me to suffer like you again? What about money? Where is the money! ”

Li Jue yelled hysterically, he suddenly rushed to a broken cabinet, reached out and pulled it in, his wife was taken aback, got up from the ground and hugged his arm, crying: "Husband, you can't! The 400 yuan is our money to buy rice, and there is no rice at home. ”

"Get out!"

Li Jue kicked his wife over, took out a cloth bag from the cabinet, stuffed it into his arms and ran out, and ran away without a trace in the blink of an eye, Ning Qing looked at her husband's back and disappeared blankly, she suddenly came from sadness, lay on the ground and cried, she began to miss the grassland husband who would rather not have her surname and protect her escape, and began to miss the simple people on the grassland, although those who were once hated by her.

．．．．．．． Since Li Qing'an left Chang'an, Atami Ju has become calm again, its business has never been lukewarm, located in the deep alley, only some old guests often come here to drink, even the most lively festival is not full of people, all day long, the wine shop is always quiet, at noon, a carriage stopped in front of the door of Atamiju, Li Huichun came out of the carriage, his eyes were a little worried, and he asked the guy who greeted him: "What about your Chang Proprietor?" ”

"Big brother, which gust of wind blew you here?"

Chang Jin laughed and walked out, he saw Li Huichun's face full of melancholy, and couldn't help but be stunned, "Big brother, what's wrong?" ”

"Come here, I'll tell you something important."

Li Huichun pulled Chang Jin to the wall and whispered a few words to him, Chang Jin was stunned, "Oh my God! Are they in Chang'an? ”

"Yes! I guess they are very sad, you go to Baimiaolou for me, redeem that kid, and give him a sum of money, so that he can take his mother to leave Chang'an immediately. ”

"Big brother is worried that the main guild will kill them?"

"Not only that, but now the situation in the DPRK and China is complicated, I am afraid that he will expose his identity and affect our plan for the return of the hidden dragon, so let him leave Chang'an as soon as possible."

"He's so shallow and impetuous, something will happen sooner or later, it's better to ..... him"

Chang Jin couldn't say the word 'kill', he gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't the lord say it?" When they saw him, they were immediately escorted back to Broken Leaves. ”

Li Huichun sighed and said: "I also know that he is dangerous, but after all, he is the flesh and blood of the old master, and Madame treats us well, send him back to Broken Leaves, he must be a dead end, forget it, let's send him away quickly, we can't stay in Chang'an anymore, and this matter is only known to the two of us, and we can't disclose it to a third person, let alone tell the lord, he won't let go of Jue'er, do you understand?" ”

Chang Jin groaned for a long time and said, "Okay! I'll go now, only the two of us know about it, and I won't tell anyone. ”

"Remember, give him a thick coin and let him take his mother to leave Chang'an immediately."

Baimiaolou is one of the most famous green buildings in Pingkangfang, at this moment in a small room in the inner hall, Li Jue, who has a pale upper body and a pale face, is firmly tied to the big pillar, he hangs his head weakly, and there are blood marks on his face and body, obviously beaten clearly.

On a small table not far away, two sturdy men were sitting and drinking each other, glancing at Li Jue from time to time, and scolded in a low voice: "What, only four hundred yuan still dare to come to Baimiaolou, I am really tired of being tired, and I dare to order forty yuan Lotus Miao girl, I deserve to be killed." ”

Another person also scolded: "It's cheap to kill him, you can't get forty yuan, not only that, but also ten yuan of wine money and reward money, and if you can't get fifty yuan, you will skin him." ”

Li Jue lowered his head and said nothing, at this time, the door opened, and an old bustard walked in from the outside, chattering and laughing: "Li Gongzi! I've wronged you. ”

She gave the two big men a look, "Untie him!" ”

Li Jue's head rose suddenly, and he said in a trembling voice, "My... Is Uncle coming? ”

"I didn't expect that your uncle was really the proprietor of the Rejuvenation Tea House, and he was disrespectful, but it was not the proprietor Li who came, it was another person."

The two big men untied the rope on Li Jue's body, and the old bustard personally put on a new set of clothes for him, and said with a sneer: "Miss Lotus said, please for her sake, forget about this matter, Gongzi Li, give Miss Lotus a face!" ”

Li Jue swallowed and said, "Let her stay with me for another night, and I'll forget it." ”

"No problem, it's okay to accompany you for three nights, proprietor Li said, he will pay for the difference."

At this time, there was a heavy cough at the door, Chang Jin walked in with a gloomy face, he heard it at the door just now, this bastard even wanted to stay for another night, which made him extremely dissatisfied, Chang Jin is a bold and righteous man, he has never liked this little master, he regards the cause of the Hidden Dragon Society as more important than anything else, but Li Jue only brought him deep disappointment and hurt, their eighteen families have been persisting for four generations for nearly a hundred years of dreams and beliefs, and they are actually to maintain this stupid and ignorant child, thinking about it will make him feel endless sadness, which is also the reason why Chang Jin resolutely supports Li Qing'an, whether Li Qing'an is true or not, it doesn't matter, the important thing is whether he can realize the dream that the Hidden Dragon Society has been waiting for for a hundred years.

He walked into the room, looked at him coldly, and said, "Follow me!" ”

Li Jue is most afraid of two people in the Hidden Dragon Society, one is his grandfather Luo Pinfang, and the other is Chang Jin, although today he should be happy to see his long-lost relatives, but Chang Jin's cold tone made him feel timid.

The words 'Uncle Chang' didn't shout out after all, his lips pursed, he lowered his head and followed Chang Jin out, Chang Jin took him out of Baimiaolou without saying a word, he took the horse and continued to walk forward, Li Jue lowered his head and followed him, Chang Jin walked to the back of an inn, it was very quiet here, there was no one.

Chang Jin took a large heavy leather bag from his horse and threw it at his feet, with a clang.

"This is five hundred taels of gold, leave Chang'an immediately with your mother, and go as far as possible!"

Li Jue's eyes lit up, and he swallowed his saliva involuntarily, five hundred taels of gold, that is, five thousand yuan, enough to make him happy for two years.

Chang Jin seemed to know what he was thinking, and still said coldly: "I warn you, this money is the last living expenses we give you, be diligent and thrifty, enough for you to live comfortably for a lifetime, from now on, will Han Tang ask you again, whether you are dead or alive, it has nothing to do with us, if you dare to come again, it will be your death." ”

Chang Jin's indifference aroused Li Jue's dissatisfaction, he slowly stepped on the gold bag with his foot, and raised his head and said: "The Hidden Dragon Society was created by my great-grandfather, it is the ancestral business of my family, you are just a descendant of a house slave, you dare to say such words to kill the master, are you not afraid of being punished by God?" ”

"The Hidden Dragon Society no longer belongs to you!"

Chang Jin glanced at his feet with disdain, and snorted: "If you have the mind and courage of the eldest prince, you will not fall to this point, you don't want to forge ahead, and you are nostalgic for the Qinglou Academy, even I am ashamed of you, and you are embarrassed to mention the Hidden Dragon Society, are you worthy?" ”

"Don't insult me!"

Li Jue's face was flushed by Chang Jin's contempt, and he gritted his teeth and scolded: "You snobbish, traitors, I curse you, you have no face to see your ancestors after death!" ”

Chang Jin listened to his scolding, his face couldn't help but change, he clenched his fists and rushed forward, so frightened that Li Jue fell to the ground, he hurriedly grabbed the gold bag, climbed back a few steps, and said timidly: "You.... What are you doing? ”

Chang Jin's eyes widened angrily, and he pointed at him word by word and said: "I was going to kill you, but Brother Li didn't allow me to kill you, for the sake of your father who used to be my master, for the sake of your mother's hard work to raise you, I forgave you today, I don't know if sparing you will be the stupidest thing I Changjin has ever done, but people can't be without righteousness, I will let you go for the sake of righteousness, you get out!" ”

Li Jue didn't dare to say another word, he stumbled away with his heavy skin, and Chang Jin saw that he had fled away, so he sighed and said: "Born from the same mother, why is it so different?" ”

He shook his head, turned over and walked away, and when Chang Jin walked away, Li Jue slowly leaned out from behind a wall, yin [***]: "You want me to die, hum!" I'd like to see who died! ”

．．．．．．．．． There is a house in Chang'an Kaimingfang, covering an area of 30 acres, with a high wall compound, it can be seen that it is a family of eunuchs, but the front of the door is cold, the gap between the steps is covered with grass, the paint on the gate is mottled, a large piece falls off, two lifeless big lanterns are blown by the wind and rain, turned into old white, and it seems a little dilapidated, this is the house of the former Anxi Jiedu envoy Meng Lingcha.

At noon the next day, a brightly dressed Li Jue appeared in front of Fumeng Lingcha's mansion, the door was closed, he walked up the steps and patted the door vigorously, "Is anyone there?" ”

No one answered for a long time, so he patted it again, and then the door 'squeaked!' A crack opened, revealing a gray-haired old man, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Uncle, is the husband at home?"

"Marshal Fumeng is not here, Fumeng Lingcha is here."

"Oh! My husband is really joking, so I'll look for my husband... Which one! I'll look for him. ”

"Who are you?"

Li Jue hurriedly took out a famous post, handed it over and said, "I have seen the husband and the handsome before, and you said that the son of the broken leaf asked to see him." ”

"Alright! You wait. ”

The old man took the name card and slammed the door shut, and his heavy footsteps gradually walked away, Li Jue rubbed his hands and stood outside the door waiting.

Li Jue didn't know anyone in Chang'an except Li Huichun and Chang Jin, he only knew the Huichun Tea House in Dongshi, where he lived when he entered Beijing, last night he thought about it all night, and finally remembered Fumeng Lingcha, he had seen it twice, Fumeng Lingcha liked him very much, and once said that if he had any difficulties, he could come to him for help.

Although many years have passed, Li Jue still clearly remembers that he asked someone early in the morning, and he was very lucky, the shopkeeper of a wine store knew where Fumeng Lingcha lived, and he also knew that Fumeng Lingcha was in the capital, and he had seen him a few days ago.

Fumeng Lingcha was replaced by Gao Xianzhi after the battle of Xiaobolu, he was renamed the deputy protector of Andong, the Protectorate of Anton is part of today's Liaodong Peninsula and western Liaoning, two years after Tianbao, the Protectorate of Anton was stationed in today's Jinzhou, the Protectorate of Anton and the peace of Lu Jiedu basically overlapped the jurisdiction, which made the Anton Protectorate have no real power, more of a symbolic meaning, under the power of the strong An Lushan, Fulmon Lingcha is completely a decoration, stayed there for a few years, Fulmon Lingcha was depressed, and had a serious illness, He returned to the capital under the pretext of recuperating from illness, and never went back, of course, nominally he is still the deputy protector of Andu, but it makes no difference whether he is in office or not.

Fumeng Lingcha didn't want to go back, and in two years he was ready to retire to the holy beggar bones, Fumeng Lingcha liked fishing, so he dug a fish pond in the backyard and raised hundreds of fish.

Early in the morning, he fished in the fish pond, although the sun was shining, but he still wore a coat, a hat, a pair of fishing alone in the cold river and snow, but unfortunately the sky is not beautiful, not a layer of thin snow, to add a bit of artistic conception to him.

At this time, his old butler came slowly and reported: "Master, there is a young man looking for you at the door, what is the bell boy with broken leaves?" ”

Fu Meng Lingcha frowned, what bell boy, he had never heard of it, he saw that the butler had a prayer note in his hand, and reached out to take it.

'Li Jue! This name is a little familiar, he looked up and thought about it for a long time, and then suddenly remembered that about six or seven years ago, Li Huichun, a rich man with broken leaves, once brought him to find himself, and wanted to beg himself to arrange a position for this young man in the Anxi Army, at that time, it seemed that this young man's body was too weak and not smart enough, he was a little disdainful, so he politely refused, what is he doing now?

Fu Meng Lingcha was about to refuse, but after thinking about it again, it was actually okay to see him, there had been no guests in his house for a long time.

"Take him to my little room, and I'll be right there!"

He fished for a while, then he put away his fishing rod, took off his coat and hat, and walked slowly to the small room with his hands behind his back.

Li Jue had been waiting for a long time, and was sitting drinking tea, when he saw Fu Meng Lingcha coming in, he hurriedly got up and saluted: "The juniors will learn from Li Jue, see Fu Meng Dashuai!" ”

Fu Meng Lingcha waved his hand and said: "Don't mention any handsomeness, that's a thing of the past, you can just call me a senior." ”

"Yes! Fumeng seniors. ”

"Sit down!"

Fu Meng Lingcha smiled slightly, asked Li Jue to sit down, sat down himself, picked up a cup of tea casually, and took a sip slowly.

"Dashuai, no! Senior, I came here to have a big event about Anxi, and I want to report it to my seniors. ”

Fu Meng Lingcha raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and said lightly: "You should go to Li Qing'an for Anxi's matter, and you should find me for Anton's matter." ”

Speaking of the three words Li Qing'an, Fu Meng Lingcha slightly accentuated his tone, that was a name he was extremely reluctant to mention, the little lieutenant of the year, now he has achieved the Anxi Festival, and he is also the Minister of Political Affairs, the King of Anxi County, and the successive Anxi Festival Envoys have not achieved this height, even if it is Gao Xianzhi, it is in Jiannan that the king of Annan County was achieved, and the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, of course, this sentence was said when talking to others, but his own heart was full of jealousy.

"But Senior Fumeng, I'm talking about Li Qing'an."

Fu Meng Lingcha was stunned, he glanced at Li Jue again, his eyes were like electricity, and the old and drowsy appearance just now was swept away, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Jue stepped forward and lowered his voice: "Senior Fumeng, do you want to know Li Qing'an's true life experience?" ”

"Isn't he from Luoyang? Falling with my grandfather, I remember it as if it were like this. ”

"No!" Li Jue gritted his teeth and said: "That's just his words to cover people's eyes, he is actually the descendant of the prince who built the crown prince in the Xuanwumen Change." ”

"Ahh

Fumon Lingza's eyes widened sharply, and he couldn't believe his ears.
