Summer is coming, and before the hour, the sky is already bright, and even the wind is blowing with heat.

An old man with gray hair was sitting under the porch, weaving something with bamboo strips. His hands have been through the vicissitudes of life, but extremely dexterous, and soon weave the green bamboo for a long cage, the middle of the long cage is empty, the hole is opened around, the wind can blow through the middle, it is a good thing to use in the south of the Yangtze River to cool down in summer.

The young man wore a green robe and yawned: "Old man Zhong, what are you doing here early in the morning?" ”

Zhong Bole said: "The second son has never seen it, this is called Mrs. Zhu, also called Qingnu, placed on the bed, you can hold it for coolness, or it can be used to rest your feet." It's getting hot when I see it, and I have to weave a few more bamboo mats......"

Shaoyuan's eyebrows raised: "Do you really plan to stay here all the time?" "What's good here, there's nothing to ask for." ”

Zhong Bo's movements in his hands did not stop, and asked him: "What does the Mo family want, why did the second son run out with Hou Ye on his back?" ”

The young man squatted down and poked his hand at Mrs. Bamboo: "That home is deserted, and it's not fun." His eyes rolled and he leaned over, "Old man Zhong, Shaowei is too strict-mouthed and doesn't want to tell me anything." You secretly told me, why did she stay in Ling'an City? Who the hell is that adulterer of hers? ”

Zhong Bo's movements did not pause at all: "The young master doesn't want to say it, but the time has not come." The second son is a little restless. ”

"Rest easy? Can I not be irritable? Old man Zhong, aren't you afraid that your master will be bullied? ”

"The old slave believes that the young master has his own sense of proportion."

"Proportion? In the past few days, people have come to visit every day, and the prince and the prince have come to several, these people have their own ghosts, and none of them are good, so she may not be confused by which one. If you don't tell me, I'll check them one by one. ”

As soon as he jumped up, he heard a woman's sigh from behind him: "Shaoyuan, you stay obediently and don't make trouble for me." ”

Song Ran pulled the green gauze single clothes on his body and stood under the pillars: "The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit." Those noble relatives of the family who came to visit all took a fancy to the power of the Mo family, do you think they are really here for me? ”

When Shaoyuan heard this, his eyes cooled: "How can you be sure that the person you fancy is not approaching you for the same reason?" ”

Song Ran looked at him, his eyebrows clear: "Because he doesn't need it." ”

Shaoyuan paused, and a sarcastic smile came to his lips: "How many people in this world dare to say that he doesn't look down on the power of the Mo family?" Didn't he fall in love with the power of the Mo family, did he fall in love with your skin? Speaking of this, his eyebrows lit up, and he said angrily, "You can't have such a superficial person!" ”

Song Ran rubbed his eyebrows and walked in the direction of the kitchen: "Let's eat first." ”

Shaoyuan immediately caught up with her, pestering her unrelentingly, and vowing not to give up without asking for an answer.

Zhong Bo shook his head helplessly, and continued to weave bamboo tables, Liu Niang walked to the side, and said with emotion: "The second son seems to like Miss Song very much." ”

Although she already knows the background of the siblings, she is still used to calling her Miss Song.

Looking at the backs of the pair of sisters and brothers, the little girl thought to herself, how long can this peaceful day last?

As soon as this thought came to mind, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Song Ran, who was struggling with Shaoyuan, was stunned, and Shaoyuan's expression sank, and he called his personal guard and said, "Shang Xiang." ”

This sister of his is now a fragrant dumpling chased by the powerful in Beijing, and there is probably an ugly face outside the door.

Hearing his master's order, the unsmiling young man hurried away, and did not send the person away as usual, but paused for a moment, opened the door, and dodged to the side.

Song Ran seemed to have a premonition in his heart, and held his palm, which was a little sweaty.

There were three men in Xuanyi, all wearing delicate face armor on their faces, and as they stepped in, the temperature of the entire courtyard seemed to drop, and Liuniang shuddered unconsciously when she saw them.

Shaoyuan narrowed his slender eyes.

He had not come into contact with the people in the secret door, but he recognized the Xuanyao pattern on their face armor, and before he could speak, he heard the woman beside him say: "Are you here to take my life, or do you want to arrest me and go back to Yunzhou to ask for the crime?" ”

Her tone was cold, with a hint of mockery in her voice.

At this time, the sun was shining on her, but her whole person felt extremely cold.

She has been away from the Mo family for so many days, and the Mo family has not looked for her. There is a person, since the day she left Yaozhou, she sent people to chase and intercept her, if it wasn't for Xie Qi's thoughtful arrangement, she would have died in Huangquan. To this day, she is reluctant to think about the danger along the way, and the cruel truth behind the danger.

How could she easily admit that the person who chased her and killed her might be her blood relative.

The robe on the man in the dark clothes led by him was subtly different from the other two, he walked in front of her, knelt down on one knee, and raised a pair of cold eyes: "Subordinate Yin Xingyang, come to welcome the young master home." ”

Shaoyuan was shocked, this person was actually the leader of the secret door, Yin Xingyang?!

Even in the Mo family, not many people have seen this person. Yin Xingyang's three words once frightened the whole Jianghu, as the top killer, he has never missed in his career, as long as he says that the third watch will take someone's head, this person will not live to the fifth watch.

Ten years ago, he washed his hands and disappeared from the rivers and lakes. Few people know that after he retired to the rivers and lakes, he actually entered the secret door of the Mo family, just to work for the head of the Mo family.

He came to invite him personally, but Song Ran was unmoved, and the corners of his lips sneered deeper: "What if I don't go back?" ”

The man's eyes were cold, he looked at her, and said, "The subordinates have their own way, 'please' the young master to return." ”

Song Ran leaned down lightly and whispered to him with a smile: "Hasn't my father always been reluctant to admit that I am the young master of the Mo family, and he has been thinking about it all these years, how can he quietly toss me to death?" Why are you willing to let my daughter go back now? ”

Although her voice was small, it fell into Shaoyuan's ears word for word.

His eyes grew heavier and heavier, but he didn't speak.

He naturally understood what kind of life she was living in the Mo family, and he also understood what their father had done to her over the years.

If he hadn't been born in such a family, he would have been afraid and would not believe that a man who was a father would have longed for his daughter to die.

When she was in the Mo family, the Marquis of Dingyuan was somewhat afraid of his wife Qin, and he didn't dare to do it openly, so he only connived at his subordinates to bully her, and she left Yaozhou at the instigation of Xie Qi, so she created an opportunity for him to get rid of her - as long as she died quietly outside, the Qin family couldn't hold him accountable.

She said with a smile: "When I left Yaozhou, if Leader Yin came to hunt down and kill him in person, my father's wish would have been fulfilled a long time ago, but unfortunately, he missed this excellent opportunity." After that, his gaze fell on the other party's cold eyebrows, "It seems that Chief Yin does not deny it." ”

The man's voice passed through the special mask, and the voice made was deep and deep, not like a human voice: "The secret door has indeed received an order to hunt down the young master. However, this time, that time. There is an order from the Lord, please go back to the young master. I also hope that the young master, don't embarrass your subordinates. ”

Song Ran straightened up, took a step back from him, and said lightly: "If I don't embarrass you, you want to embarrass me, what's the reason?" Uncle Zhong, send it off. ”

Yin Xingyang's aura changed suddenly, and the temperature around him also dropped suddenly, but Shaoyuan, who had not spoken, suddenly blocked in front of Song Ran, with a cynical smile on his face: "Chief Yin, go back and ask my father, does he want to take Shaowei back, or do you want to bring my body back with me?" You tell him that he, his 'dear' son, doesn't want to live anymore. ”

Over there, Shang Xiang also sideways in front of the other two Xuanyi dead soldiers, his eyes flashing with a murderous cold light.

Liu Niang was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe, where had she ever seen such a scene? couldn't help but lean towards Uncle Zhong's side, but the old man put down the work in his hand and stood up slowly.

He had a stiff back and gray beard, and he looked like an ordinary old man no matter how he looked at it, but in front of that unparalleled cold-blooded killer, he picked up a broom and swept up the fallen leaves in the courtyard without changing his face.

He swept the floor and said: "When Leader Yin came, he should have noticed that around this Song Mansion, there are eyes, if it is you, you will not choose to come hard." What's more, if you come hard, you may not be able to get benefits. ”

Yin Xingyang looked at the old man's movements, his eyes narrowed. No one noticed that his right ear moved slightly.

I don't know if Uncle Zhong's words had an effect, or if he made a judgment from somewhere else, but I saw him get up from the ground, and the murderous aura in his body gradually converged and disappeared into invisibility.

He crossed Shaoyuan, walked in front of Song Ran, and said in a changed voice: "Young Master can change his mind at any time." As he spoke, he touched a jade whistle from his sleeve and hung it around her neck without saying a word, "When you change your mind, blow this whistle." Subordinate...... Say goodbye first. ”

Yin Xingyang walked out of the Song Mansion and did not leave immediately, he stood on a roof, staring at the group of people coming from the alley, only to hear the subordinates behind him say: "The leader could have forcibly taken the young master today." ”

He laughed, his voice was muffled and low, and he couldn't hear the emotion: "Why did you wash your hands and retire ten years ago?" He turned around and jumped off the roof before he could come into the sight of the group, "Because my defeat was broken one day ten years ago." ”

After sending off these uninvited guests, Zhong Bo still buried his head in sweeping the floor and said leisurely: "Today is really lively...... However, Yin Xingyang's evil ghost is easy to send, and the next Buddha is not easy to send. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, which had not had time to be closed, and without waiting for his master's answer, he stepped over the threshold.

The person who came was dressed as a eunuch, and he only heard him say in a sharp voice: "The Empress Dowager Yizhi, the daughter of the Xuanmo clan is young, enter the palace to meet you——"
