Yuan Mo dragged Zhang Yue into the room. Zhang Yue was full of doubts, "Yuan Mo, why didn't the master let the official report to the official and rob and kill the people in broad daylight, this is a big case?" Also, why didn't the master let me be friends with Rumo anymore? ”

Yuan Mo's face was gloomy, his eyes were half-bright, the corners of his mouth were tightened, and after Zhang Yue finished talking about a bunch of questions, he spoke up, "Little Wu, the master has insight into the world and reads all the people's feelings." He must have a reason for letting you do this. ”

"But, if he is..."

"Xiao Wu, do you know what the ancient song that Ji Rumo played at the farewell banquet the day before yesterday was?"

"What is it? I haven't heard of it before, huh? ”

Yuan Mo said patiently, "That piece is called 'Phoenix Dance Nine Days', which was created by Shang Yizhi, a court musician during the Xuande period, and this piece is specially played for the royal family, and it is extremely difficult to play. And Shang Yizhi has a withdrawn personality, and he has few apprentices in his life, and all of his apprentices serve in the royal court. That Ji Rumo can play this song so skillfully, and his origin is very complicated. The purpose of his coming to my Xuanwei Academy, I'm afraid it wasn't as simple as asking for words...... Hum! I don't know ......"

Zhang Yue interrupted Yuan Mo's words unconvinced, "Senior Brother Dongyang told me in the letter a long time ago that Rumo is a child of a family in the capital, so what's so strange about knowing a few court musicians?" He can play a tune, and you say that people are related to the royal family, so you also know this tune, can I say that you are also a royal noble? ”

Yuan Mo was choked and stammered, "You——! I ——! ”

"I can't tell! Ever since Rumo came to the academy, you have been sneering at others, generous, and did not care about you. It's good that everyone has left, and you have become more suspicious of him. Yuan Mo, you are so narrow-minded, even I am embarrassed for you! ”

"You lost your track yesterday, I was worried for a day and a night, you!! In order to defend that Ji Rumo, you said that I am narrow-minded! ”

"Originally, Rumo is my very important friend, I didn't let you be friends with him like me, but you are not allowed to slander him in front of me!"

"An important friend, you've only known each other for a few days, and he's your important friend, so what am I?" Yuan Mo gritted his teeth and repeated what Zhang Yue said.

"You, you're nothing!" Zhang Yue was so angry that he blurted out.

A look of injury flashed in Yuan Mo's eyes, and his tone lowered, "I can't imagine that you think of me like this!" Then he turned and slammed the door and went out.

Zhang Yue looked at the back of him leaving, and also felt that his words were heavy, and he regretted a little in his heart, and wanted to catch up and explain, but he thought of Yuan Mo's cheekiness, and he would be fine in a few days, so he didn't take it to heart.

At this time, Xiao Tong was already in the room to prepare the bath water, and she asked Xiao Tong to put her things away and go out. Zhang Yue closed the door, took off his dirty clothes, and entered the bathtub. Days of desperate travel had exhausted her, and her body was swirled in soft hot water, which was extremely comfortable.

She pondered what had happened in the past few days. I wonder how Rumo is doing now? Are the injuries on your body better? Completely out of danger? After escaping, he should return to the capital, right? I wonder if there will be a chance to meet again in the future? Zhang Yue's thoughts slowly swept into the air with the heat......

In the following days, Zhang Yue returned to his original peaceful life, sometimes going to the front school to listen to lectures during the day, sometimes accompanying the master to fishing, planting vegetables, writing, drinking tea in the courtyard in his spare time, and chatting with familiar disciples.

Yuan Mo slammed the door from Zhang Yue's room that day, as if he was really angry, and never went to Zhang Yue's Lize Xuan to drink tea and chat, the two met in the academy, and they also passed by coldly, as if they didn't see Zhang Yue. Zhang Yue was quite surprised to see that Yuan Mo was really angry this time, thinking that it would be good to get rid of his anger in a few days, and he didn't pay special attention to him.

After Rumo left the academy, there was no more news, Zhang Yue once asked about Rumo in a letter to Li Dongyang, Li Dongyang only told her that Ji Rumo was fine, and did not mention anything related to him.

Zhang Yue didn't always ask Li Dongyang, so he intentionally or unintentionally asked several disciples of the academy about the Ji family in the capital, but those people all replied that they had never heard of a family surnamed Ji in the capital, let alone the name of Ji Rumo. It seems that everything about this Ji Gongzi has disappeared. It's just that whenever Zhang Yue is under the osmanthus tree in the yard, drinking, drinking tea, reading books and basking in the sun, he often thinks of the figure and the elegant and warm smile standing under the osmanthus tree like a river shining on the water.

More than a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and on the morning of this day, Zhang Yue was reading in the room, and Qingfeng came to Lize Xuan and summoned Zhang Yue to return Mr. Chu's heart. said that Jin Cheng came up the mountain.

Zhang Yue heard that his uncle was coming, and rushed to Xinjianzhai, as soon as he entered the room, he saw the master sitting firmly on the upper position, his uncle Jin Cheng and Yuan Mo sitting at the bottom, Jin Cheng and the master were chatting about something, Yuan Mo's face was a little bad, and he looked uneasy.

Zhang Yue hurriedly said hello to his master and uncle, and Mr. Chu twisted his beard, looked at Zhang Yue kindly, and asked his lover to sit next to Yuan Mo, who glanced at Zhang Yue with complicated eyes.

After Zhang Yue sat down, he asked, "Uncle, why did you come up the mountain today?" ”

Jin Cheng laughed, "Yue'er, there is a good thing to tell you, your parents have a letter, and your father was recommended by your eldest uncle to enter the Guozijian as a student in the name of Xianggong." Your family has moved to the capital a few months ago, and your father said in a letter that you have been fostered with me all these years, separated from each other, and he hopes that you can go to the capital to reunite with them. Haven't you always missed them? This time we can finally be reunited! I heard that your uncle found a good marriage for you in the capital. Just waiting for you to go! ”

Zhang Yue didn't react for a while, next to Yuan Mo raised his head suddenly when he heard the word marriage, staring at Zhang Yue, Zhang Yue didn't care about Yuan Mo's reaction at all, he was stunned for a while, and then came back to his senses,

"Uncle, then don't I want to leave the academy, leave the master, and leave you, uncle?"

"Silly boy, you can still be by your uncle's side all the time, you have brought a lot of joy to your uncle and aunt over the years. As for your master—" Jin Cheng paused to look at Mr. Huanchu.

Mr. Huanchu smiled slightly beside him and said loudly

"Xiao Wu, you are my closed disciple, am I willing to give you up? It's just that you and your parents haven't seen each other for many years, and they are not young, so you should return to them to do more filial piety and enjoy your family. On my side, you don't have to worry about it, your senior brother and they will take care of me. ”

"But, master, I..."

Zhang Yue was short of words for a while, and he didn't know what to say? Turned his head to look at Yuan Mo, wanting Yuan Mo to help him say a few words, but he didn't know that Yuan Mo's face was so ugly.

Mr. Huanchu waved his hand at Zhang Yue and motioned for her not to say anything. Then he said to Jin Cheng,

"Jin Zhutou, I'm in a bit of a hurry today, and I still have to tell Yue'er something. Tomorrow morning, you can pick her up again. ”

Jin Cheng even said yes, and after a few more words of advice to Zhang Yue, he said goodbye and went down the mountain.

There were only three people left in the house: Mr. Huanchu, Yuan Mo, and Zhang Yue. The three of them were silent for a while, and Mr. Huanchu sighed, "Yuan Mo! ”

Yuan Mo hurriedly got up and answered.

"You go to the front and talk to the gallmirror, let the kitchen cook some of Xiao Wu's favorite foods on weekdays at night, and call all the disciples who are usually close to Xiao Wu, you can give Xiao Wu a canteen!"

Yuan Mo respectfully agreed, turned around and went out, and glanced at Zhang Yue before going out. There was a look of reluctance in his eyes.

After Yuan Mo left, Zhang Yue was left alone in the house, and the master stood up and walked up to her, "Xiao Wu, you come with me." ”

Zhang Yue quickly stood up and followed the master into the inner room. The master closed the door. Touched Zhang Yue's head, and stared at her for a long time with kind eyes, Zhang Yue looked at the master's gaze, thinking of the master's kindness to him over the years, he was going to leave the master tomorrow, and he didn't know when he would be able to meet, his heart was sour, and tears immediately welled up.

"Master, I can't bear you..."

The master sighed, "Xiao Wudon't cry, alas! You are a disciple of the teacher in his later years, and you are also the most beloved disciple! Today, the master wants to solemnly tell you that from now on, you are the successor of the master's mantle. ”
