CHAPTER XXXVII

Fang Cuntang, Chen Tong spit out an apricot kernel and said boringly: "Old Hu, take your thing farther away and block the sun." ”

When Lao Hu heard this, he hurriedly moved the big piece of iron to the side of the pond.

"I said you went out just to grab this big piece of iron?"

"This is no ordinary piece of iron! It's the cold spirit of Changbai Mountain! Lao Hu said dissatisfied.

"Okay, good, cold spirit, can you stop me with a sword?"

"It's... Probably not..."

"Cut." Chen Tong pursed his lips and howled: "Ah~ It's so boring! Xiao Yan'er hasn't come back yet, is that little girl from the Tang family as beautiful as her master? ”

"Hey, hey, at least people have a better temper than you."

"Old man Du, what did you say? Don't want to live anymore?! ”

Du Lao, who had just walked to the pavilion, said with a smile: "Don't be angry, look at what the old man brought back." ”

"What? The emperor's head? Chen Tong said disdainfully and looked sideways.

"Holy! Purple Pole Tianluo! Where did you get that? ”

Elder Du threw Tianluohua over and said with a smile: "I got it by accompanying Juan Dan to Yunling, but I came back with a trouble." ”

"Trouble?" Chen Tong took Tianluohua and quickly put away the puzzled question.

"Shangshan Liyi has seen Senior Chen."

The invisible sword qi grazed Du Lao's ear, directly cutting a huge sword mark on the cold essence iron behind him.

Chen Tong looked at the slim Shangshan Liyi and said slowly: "So, you found me a rival in love?" ”

β€œ......”

In Chang'an City, the light rain continued, separated by an ink-colored bead curtain, and pedestrians hurriedly left with paper umbrellas.

"Aren't you going to hide from the rain?"

Xiao Nan looked at the man in white opposite him, chuckled, picked up the turbid wine that had been mixed with a lot of rain, and drank it all.

"In Chang'an City, there are crowds everywhere, and I don't want to drown in them."

A man passing by fell into standing water because he was too flustered.

"But what's the difference between me and them, it's not the same, my head is broken and bleeding..."

Xiao Nan retracted his gaze and poured a glass of wine again: "To this day, I don't know, should I believe, 'fate is up to me'?" Still, 'Opportunity... Haha, don't ask for...'. ”

"My master said that no one can defeat us except ourselves." The man in white put the wine glass on the table and smiled:

"So it's not fate or chance that you have to believe in, but yourself."

"Yourself?"

Gu Tianxue nodded: "This rain is indeed very heavy... However, the clouds will always dissipate, the sky will be clear, although the wind and rain are strong, what are you afraid of?! ”

"It's raining heavily, do you want to hide?" Hook Kiss asked Gu Yan beside him.

Gu Yan looked at it and was already soaked in rain because he was wearing too thin, Tang Tang nodded: "Well, let's go, go to Sister Li." ”

"Hahaha, it's Xiao who thinks too much."

Xiao Nan laughed and got up and asked Gu Tianxue, "Why did Brother Gu come to Xiao this time?" ”

"Come with me to the academy."

"Academy? Don't you hate the kind of places full of people the most? ”

Gu Tianxue looked sideways at Yaoqin stored under the eaves on the side and replied, "I have a reason why I have to go." ”

"What about me? You don't have to go to the academy to bring me along, right? ”

"Then you are willing to be buried in this crowd all the time?"

β€œ......”

Xiao Nan thought for a moment and shook his head and smiled: "Okay, you won." However, the enrollment of the academy has ended, and if you want to go, you can only wait until next year. ”

"No, we'll leave right now."

In the post station in the west square of Chang'an City, Chen Tang and Mo Yun hurriedly returned and handed the paper umbrella they had just bought to Liuying and a few people.

"After a few more days of delay in the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, I hope Xiao Yan'er and they haven't left yet." Cicada Yi said with some concern.

Chen Cheng took the handkerchief handed by Liu Ying, wiped his hair, and waited for the rain to reply: "Don't worry, Miss Tang Yan said that they have just set off, and according to the distance, they should arrive at about the same time as us." ”

Mo Yun nodded: "We have already found an inn on the way back, let's go, put down the things first and wait for the rain to stop before looking for them." ”

"Hmm."

"Boom!"

A silver-blue bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the empty imperial study for a few minutes.

Liu Ji, the new emperor who had just succeeded to the throne, put the brush that had run out of ink on the pen holder and asked the old eunuch beside him, "Gonggong Chen, how is the birthday banquet of the king of Hejian?" ”

"Prince Qin Si is very fond of the Taurus Zun given by His Majesty, and he also bowed to the imperial city three times."

"Well, if I'm not mistaken, Qin Si's only son was sent to the academy by him for reference, what happened to the result?"

"That kid is also lucky, the topic of this year's academy is very strange and he was mixed in."

Liu Ji nodded, he reached out and took out a thick thread-bound book from the desk and handed it to Gonggong Chen and instructed: "Qin Si has been staying in Chang'an City for all these years and has not returned to the fiefdom, but he is also very stable, and he will send his only son to the academy with him, and withdraw half of the surveillance force of the Hejian Palace." Send this new novel by Mr. Cha to my father, I remember his favorite thing to read. ”

"Wow."

Gonggong Chen replied respectfully, holding the book in both hands and wanting to leave.

"Wait."

"Is there anything else Your Majesty has to say?"

Liu Ji got up and left the desk, walked to the door, looked at the rain that was already getting lighter, and said, "Prepare for the drive, go to the Yanyu Building." ”

β€œ......”

In the Yanyu Building, Mo Yun, who had already changed his clothes, came to the Tianzi No. 1 box alone.

"Sister Li."

"Xiao Yan'er has changed her clothes? Come on, come to my sister, I miss it for a long time. Li Yu, who was lying on his side on the huge blanket, saw Gu Yan's eyes light up when he pushed the door in, and beckoned to him.

Gu Yan obediently walked to Li Yu's side and knelt down and said with a smile: "Yan'er also misses my sister very much, can my sister repay the habits in Chang'an in the past few years?" ”

Hearing this, Li Yu rolled his eyes, pulled the fruit plate on his side and pushed it to Gu Yan, and said helplessly: "Of course, Chang'an is not comfortable staying in the hall, you can sleep until you wake up naturally every day, and there are all kinds of maintenance drugs prepared by the old monster... Alas, what a tightness I miss. ”

"Then why doesn't my sister go back?"

"Who are you to blame? It's not your master yet, you have to ask people to come to Chang'an City to find things, really, if you don't move, you will call people! ”

"Master will probably be glad to hear her sister's advice to her." Gu Yan said with a smile.

"Don't, Xiao Yan'er, don't tell your master, just act as a sister and don't say anything, okay?" Li Yu sat up, folded his palms, and pleaded with Gu Yan.

Gu Yan smiled and nodded: "Okay, it's okay not to tell Master, but my friends and I have been bothering my sister to take care of it during this time in Chang'an." ”

"You little ghost, you will squeeze my sister and me..."

"Master Liu."

"Hmm."

Liu Ji nodded to the maid who greeted the guests in the Yanyu Pavilion and asked, "Is Miss Li here?" ”

"Thisβ€”" The maid looked a little embarrassed. Miss: She's entertaining a guest. ”

"Guests? Male or female? Liu Ji frowned slightly.

"Male, but..."

"Lao Chen, go, go up with my son."
