Chapter Forty-Eight: Abandoning the Pen and Obeying Rong

As if he suddenly remembered something, Chu Yuan reached into his arms, took out something, and put it in Chu Xintian's palm.

Chu Xintian looked down and couldn't help but stare at what Chu Yuan handed her.

"What are you doing with this, Yuan?"

At this time, there was a beautiful gold-inlaid jade lock in her palm, which was a relic of her mother Fang's family.

The gold-inlaid jade lock is a talisman worn by the Fang family since childhood. When she died in childbirth, she used her last breath to hang the gold-inlaid jade lock on Chu Yuan's body.

This was the last relic left by his mother, and it was also a talisman, so Chu Yuaner had worn a gold-inlaid jade lock around his neck since he was a child.

This gold-inlaid jade lock is also a valuable item.

From childhood to the present, the Liu family greedily wanted to take away the gold-inlaid jade lock from Chu Yuan's hands, and Chu Yuan also worked hard and suffered a lot to keep this object.

This gold-inlaid jade lock was a relic of his mother, and to Chu Yuan, it was more important than his own life.

Now, Chu Xintian didn't understand why Chu Yuan suddenly gave it to her.

"Sister, I'm grown up, I don't have to wear an amulet, give it to Yongjing, he's about to have a birthday, this is a gift from my uncle.

"But this is my mother's relic!"

"Sister, I think that if my mother is still alive and sees Yongjing, her old man will be very happy, and she will also put the jade lock on him."

After listening to Chu Yuan's words, Chu Xintian could no longer refuse, so he had to put away the jade lock.

Chu Yuan took Chu Xintian to the bazaar again before separating from her.

Looking at Chu Yuan's departing back, Chu Xintian suddenly felt that his younger brother seemed to have something heavy on his mind.

She was very worried, and was about to catch up with her to ask, when suddenly a shout came from behind her.

"Yongjing Niang, why are you here, I've been looking for you for a long time!"

Chu Xintian turned around, and it turned out to be Niu Li's family.

"Oh, sister-in-law, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I just went to see my brother at the academy. ”

"It's okay, I'm also shopping, you see, my basket is almost full!" Niu Li said with a smile.

"Yongjing Niang, where is your brother?"

Under Niu Li's reminder, Chu Xintian remembered that she had something to ask Chu Yuan.

She looked back and didn't see Chu Yuan.

"He's back at the academy."

"Yongjing Niang, it's not too early, let's hurry back to the village!"

Chu Xintian felt that he would come to the county seat in two days, and then he would ask Chu Yuan in detail.

"Well, good!"

Chu Yuan returned to the academy with a heavy heart, and before he entered the door, he was dragged by his classmate Su Qi to the bamboo forest behind the academy.

"Ah Yuan, what do you think?" Su Qi frowned, clasped his hands in his arms and asked.

Su Qi saw that Chu Yuan was silent, and said:

"Ah Yuan, now, the Liaojin in the north is constantly encroaching on the mountains and rivers around us. The wolves are ambitious, and one day, they will march into the Central Plains! Those civil officials in the court, greedy for life and afraid of death, only know how to make peace, they are all a bunch of spineless things! Do you want to be an official in such a court? We're not all ready to do something big! Let me tell you, next month, the Eight Princes Mansion will come to recruit troops. So how about we go together? In the whole country, only the Eight Princes Mansion dares to confront Liaojin, follow the Eight Princes, we will definitely be able to do something!"

"Ah Yuan, are you still worried about your sister and nephew?" Think about it. If Liao and Jin invade the Central Plains and mourn all over the wilderness, won't your sister and nephew be in danger? We joined the army to prevent this tragedy from happening, didn't we?

"Okay, Aki, stop nagging. I've made my decision. Let's sign up next month!"
