At the end of the day's listening, the two children of the Bu family came back more energetically than when they went out, Bai Peony went to Mrs. Qi's yard to ask for peace, and Bu Tong and Bu Yiyang rushed into Bu Tingyun's study.

After listening to the turmoil in today's school, Bu Tingyun pinched the file in his hand and sighed loudly, and sighed without hiding his position in front of the child,

"His Royal Highness the Sixth is His Majesty's most beloved son, and he will have high hopes in the future, but I see that he is too deep and faintly unright, so I have not liked him very much, and now the Six Princes' Mansion has frequent accidents, and His Majesty has also begun to examine these sons again, I am afraid that if your school is over, these princes will come to participate in the spring examination and compete."

Now that the situation has been reversed, this spring test must be very lively.

Bu Yiyang was eager to try it when he heard this, and he got up excitedly, "The princes have come to participate in the spring test, then I will also try it." ”

After thinking about it, Bu Tingyun unexpectedly agreed, and only stared at Bu Yiyang and said coldly, "Then you can get along with Lin and study etiquette well, don't embarrass me." ”

Butong suddenly remembered something,

"By the way, father, brother, today I saw Mu Hewen outside Prime Minister Lin's mansion, in the past, I always had a preconceived idea that he would live on the battlefield for a long time like his brother, and he must be arrogant and open-minded, but today from when I asked him if he followed General Lie and his uncle to inspect the battlefield, he suddenly asked his daughter with forbearance and anger Why did he have to go back to the border, and His Royal Highness was afraid that he would not go back."

Bu Yiyang nodded, "I took a special look today, except for the Fourth Highness, he listened the most seriously, and he has been writing notes, Lin Xiang's class is as boring as meditation, I woke up three times, and he didn't even move the folds on his clothes." ”

Bu Tingyun glared at him, "Nonsense." ”

Bu Tong hurriedly relieved his brother,

"Father, it stands to reason that His Royal Highness has not returned to Beijing for a long time, and he has come back without any roots, what is it for?"

Bu Tingyun put down the scroll, sighed lightly and got up, "In the end, it was Your Majesty's prince, who discussed the prince back then, but in the end, he lived on the side for a long time and no one cared about it, and there was not even a concubine around him, how could he be willing?" ”

It seems that in this stormy Kyoto City, there are still people who want to break through, but now that the power has been divided, the third prince ran back at this time, how can a person who has not fought for power for a long time succeed?

……

Bu Tong went to the East Factory in the evening, Tang Xuanlin took people out, and Bu Tong went to Beizhen Fusi to chat with Wu Thirteen, Wu Thirteen looked at Bu Tong with a look of despair.

"County Lord Niangniang, you are watching the villain still have a life to eat and drink here, right? The last time you came to talk to me, the Lord Overseer arrived later, and repeatedly asked me to repeat what I had told you six times, and that face scared the villain all night, and this time you ...... again."

After listening to it six times, Bu Tong thought that Tang Xuanlin was still confirming it over and over again after realizing what he knew, and that empty mood was a little uncomfortable.

Bu Tong waved his hand, reached out and took the cup on the small table to add tea to himself,

"I'm here to appease you this time, No, and brought you a tea set."

Wu Shisan swallowed his saliva, "County Lord Niangniang, the villain has learned from the pain these days, and has reformed himself, knowing that he was a bastard who caused hundreds of people to die in vain in the past, and now he is here every day to reflect on his mistakes, and he is bent on finding an opportunity to make up for it." ”

Bu Tong nodded and poured him a cup approvingly,

"It's naturally good to have this feeling, and it's not bad for my teapot."

Xingtian followed behind and spoke unwillingly, "Niangniang, do you remember that I was behind?" Why don't I even have thirteen? ”

"Thirteen?" Bu Tong took a new cup and poured tea for Xingtian,

"Are you so close now?"

Xingtian squatted opposite Butong with a hard-mouthed look, "Who is close to him?" We are bitter enemies! ”

Wu Shisan nodded seriously.

Butong lowered his head and smiled, not trying to poke them.

"Whose case has Xuan Lin been investigating recently? How hectic he is. Butong said to him with a casual look.

Wu 13 sat on the thatch in front of the low table with Xing Tian, and drank tea obediently, "Lord Overseer has been investigating the matter of the river embankment recently?" ”

Xing Tian glanced at him, "You've all lived here, you're well-informed." ”

Wu 13 "hehe" smiled, "I'm not close to the temporary detention prison opposite, I have nothing to say to the people over there, but the people who have been detained recently are all people who participated in the construction of the river embankment." ”

Butong "tsk" out of the voice,

"Such a talent, if it weren't for those things that lacked virtue in the past, Suzaku would definitely accept you."

"I don't want him," Suzaku stood at the door at some point, "County Lord Niangniang, my family is waiting for you." ”

Bu Tong got up, "I just have something to tell him." ”

Suzaku leaned over and glanced back, and Xingtian and Wu Thirteen hurriedly lowered their heads and pretended not to be there. On the way out, Bu Tong was very sincere to Suzaku,

"Suzaku, think about it again, although Wu Thirteen is a bit of a bastard, and what he did before was enough to lose his conscience, but I see that he is indeed aware of his mistakes, it is better to give him a chance to make up for his mistakes, and do something good to comfort the souls of Dongyi City."

Suzaku could only see the tense chin on his face sunk under the cloak, "If you follow what Niangniang said, where did the innocent people who died in Dongyi City get a second chance?" ”

Bu Tong was choked, yes, as long as the living know their mistakes, they can get a chance to mend their ways, isn't it too unfair to many innocent victims, sighed softly and said,

"Wu Thirteen's crimes, how to deal with them?"

Suzaku didn't have the slightest emotion, and the words floated in, "Exile to the side." ”

Bu Tong sighed softly,

"There is also an ending, if you truly repent, you can naturally make contributions by taking care of the territory."

Suzaku nodded, "Niangniang's words are reasonable. ”

Seeing that he had arrived in Tang Xuanlin's courtyard, Suzaku saluted and retreated, and Bu Tong walked in step by step, but his eyes instantly widened when he looked at the scene in front of him.

The originally dry small lake is now filled with water, Tang Xuanlin's trouser legs are rolled up, more than half of his slender and powerful calves are buried in the silt, and his big hands with clear bones are also full of mud, holding a large handful of tender lotus seedlings, carefully planted one by one, a person who calls for wind and rain on weekdays is now standing in the cold water of early spring, planting lotus flowers stiffly in a lame rice planting posture, this scene is really shocking.

"Xuanlin ......" Bu Tong walked up to the small bridge and looked at the people below, "You are planting lotus?" ”

Tang Xuanlin got up and looked over, his face was full of joy,

"I've heard people say that lotus flowers are the easiest to take root when it's cold, so that they can bloom all over the pond in summer, and Tong'er will definitely be happy."

Butong slowly walked down the bridge and stood on the shore looking at this messy but extraordinarily cheerful man,

"Is it that important what I like?"

Tang Xuanlin nodded, but the words behind made Bu Tong nervous,

"I once had a dream that in the desolate suburbs of the city, for some reason it was your body in my arms, and I sat on the ground in despair, calling you in disbelief, but you didn't open your eyes until the end, I thought, I'm going to kill everyone and bury you...... When I woke up, everything was still so beautiful, and I knew that I wouldn't let you suffer a little more grievances, and I would be unwilling at all. ”

Butong's body was cold, his stiff fingers curled up and opened, and he looked at the person in front of him in disbelief,

"What do you say? Do you dream that I am dead? ”

Tang Xuanlin thought that Bu Tong felt unlucky, and hurriedly explained,

"It's just a random dream, Tong'er, don't mind, with me, I won't let you be hurt by anything."

He shouldn't have the memory of that life.

There is only one thought left in Butong's head, if everything really starts from scratch, then Tang Xuanlin is the original Tang Xuanlin, how can there be such a ridiculous memory, how can it be?

Tang Xuanlin looked at Bu Tong, whose eyes were vibrating, and hurriedly put down the things in his hand and walked up,

"Tong'er, what's wrong?"

Butong looked at him in a panic,

"Xuanlin, is that really a dream?"

Tang Xuanlin suddenly laughed, as if he heard Bu Tong say cute witticisms,

"Of course it's a dream, Tong'er, aren't you standing in front of me in An'an now? At that time, I knew the pain of losing everything, and when I opened my eyes and saw everything around me, I felt like a new life, and I just wanted to protect everything. ”

Bu Tong's eyes suddenly had a layer of mist, and he laughed out loud for some reason, reached out to hold Tang Xuanlin's hand, regardless of his resistance, and held it tightly,

"Xuanlin, I also want to keep all this well, and I won't let the things in that dream happen again."

Tang Xuanlin nodded, although the hands of the two were stained with mud, the kind of cherished and careful feelings that permeated the middle made people fascinated......

Xing Tian ran into the courtyard and shouted loudly, "Lord Overseer, Jia Chen has spoken......"

Then I saw Bu Tong and Tang Xuanlin sitting hand in hand next to the lotus pond, the wasteland on weekdays was full of small lotus flowers, Bu Tong and Tang Xuanlin sat on the stone on the side, and leaned their heads on Tang Xuanlin, looking intimate and warm.

The most important thing is that the overseer of Dongchang, who usually does not get a trace of dust, is covered with mud from top to bottom, and even pulls up his trousers to expose his bare feet, and is mottled with messy mud marks.

This......

Xing Tian froze there suddenly, until Tang Xuanlin threw over an unhappy look, then he suddenly woke up, he didn't know what to do with his hands and feet, turned around and stumbled out.

Butong got up and yawned a long time,

"The sound of the punishment heaven? What happened to him? ”

Tan Xuanlin nodded lightly,

"It seems that what Jia Chen said seems to be a more important thing."

Bu Tong suddenly fell asleep, his eyes widened suddenly, and he got up to look at Tang Xuanlin,

"Jia Chen? Let's take a shower and change our clothes, and let's go and listen. ”
