Rong Zhao walked into his room, turned his back to close the door, and walked to the candle without pause in the darkness.

He polished the firewood on the side, the firewood burst out a little firelight, and then jumped and lit on the candle center of the candle, the light suddenly opened up its own way in the darkness, Rong Zhao's face flickered in the background of the candle flame, and his distinct side face outlined a cold and hard line, which was really a good face for a knife and axe.

He went to the rest of the room and lit the candles in turn, a series of slow and leisurely movements, as if he were waiting for someone.

Sure enough, when the last candle was lit, the light of the fire came out with a knock on the door. Rong Zhao said softly, "Come in." ”

A man walked in with a bloody breath all over his body, and the wind at night was heavy, but it could not blow away the blood carried by the sky on the man's body.

Rong Zhao smiled and beckoned, let the man come forward and said, "How?" ”

The man bent down and said, "The brothers have seriously injured one and two lightly, the woman is dead, and the murderer has fled." ”

The tone is crisp and clear, and the words are concise and clear, worthy of all the indifference in those eyes.

Rong Zhao pondered for a moment and said, "How did that maid die?" ”

The man pondered for a moment and said, "I was stabbed to death by a long sword." ”

Rong Zhao nodded, and did not speak for a while. After knowing about Xiuyue, he had already ordered people to go to Bizhu's East Garden to see the situation, but he didn't expect that Bizhu was already dead, and the person who entered that place was seriously injured, you know, these people are not ordinary.

"When you arrived, was Master Xiao still there?"

When the man heard the questioning, he immediately shook his head and said, "Nowhere to be found." ”

Presumably, when Xiu Yue ran out, Master Xiao also escaped. Rong Zhao clenched his fists fiercely.

The air was silent for a few seconds, and Rong Zhao suddenly spoke: "Tang Sheng, how long have you been with me?" ”

Without the slightest hesitation, the man replied, "It's been three years since Gongzi saved me." ”

It's been three years, Rong Zhao sighed in his heart, he looked at the man in front of him with a flat face, but he hadn't smiled for three years, and couldn't help but say, "Do you want to leave?" ”

When the man who had been keeping his head down heard this, he suddenly looked up at Rong Zhao, and said in puzzlement, "What does Childe mean?" ”

Rong Zhao turned his head to look out the window at the moonlight. "I will return to the capital soon, you naturally know the danger at that time, three years have passed, and your original enemy is no longer looking for your traces, with your martial arts, you can find a place at will and live a good life."

He sincerely wanted to let him go, these days, one thing after another, has made Rong Zhao realize that his identity may have been exposed, or rather, it will be more dangerous in the future, Tang Sheng, as a capable leader under him for three years, he doesn't want him to lose his life in vain.

Tang Sheng snorted coldly and said, "Is Childe so cowardly? ”

Hearing this, Rong Zhao couldn't help but smile and said, "The agitation method doesn't work. ”

Tang Sheng snorted coldly, although he didn't speak, but he looked determined that if you let me go, I would die.

There was no way, Rong Zhao confronted him twice, so he had to sigh and say, "That's it, in that case, starting tomorrow, you and I will be by Yao'er's side." ”

Tang Sheng looked up at him with some puzzlement, but he didn't expect Rong Zhao to suddenly throw a sign to him, which was engraved with a few words: The county lord's personal guard.

He held this sign, and his face, which had been unfazed, finally showed a surprised expression, followed by emotion, "Childe ......"

Rong Zhao stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's time for you to see the sunshine too." ”

Death for a confidant. Because those who know themselves can give them new life.

Following.

Xiuyue lay on the bed, feeling the gradual fatigue transmitted by her body, and wanted to cry without tears.

She took out the things that Bizhu handed her before she died, and looked at the twisted handwriting on it, and her heart felt sour.

Suddenly, she remembered something, her face changed, and she immediately said loudly: "Chunliu! Spring willows! ”

Chunliu had been staying in the courtyard for a long time, and before Rong Yu left yesterday, he specially instructed himself that he didn't need to go out to work these days, he just needed to stay in the yard and take care of Xiuyue.

This is not just idle, Chunliu is still a little uncomfortable, so he repeatedly swept the already clean yard in the yard.

She heard Xiuyue's scream, thought something was wrong, threw the broom, and hurriedly ran in.

By the time Harukyu entered the house, Shuyue had already rewrapped Bizhu's things and put them back in their place.

Chunliu walked over suspiciously, thinking that Xiu Yue was thirsty, and was about to turn her head to hold water.

Xiu Yue suddenly said, "What about Rong Zhao?" ”

Chunliu smiled and said, "Miss, Young Master Rong hasn't come yet." If you want to honor the son, the slave will go to the son for you. ”

Although he understood that Chunliu had misunderstood what he meant, Xiu Yue was no longer ready to explain, and hurriedly said, "Quick, you go and call him over." ”

Now Xiu Yue only has the strength to speak, that is, she will be dizzy after sitting for a while, not only that, but because of excessive blood loss, and the consumption of the remaining two peach wood cards, she is now in the time of running out of food.

But at this time, Xiu Yue remembered the twin flowers that Rong Zhao promised Yu Wensheng, that thing is in Beicheng, if Rong Zhao wants to get it, it must be tomorrow.

She frowned and pondered, she wanted to go with Rong Zhao.

Xiu Yue's expression was too serious, her brows were tightly furrowed, and her tone was very stern, and Chunliu on the side thought that something was wrong, and she was shocked, and hurriedly ran out.

I just ran to the door, and when I opened the door, I found two hesitant people standing outside the door.

She paused for a moment and asked, "Who are you?" ”

On the opposite side is an old man, although the old man is old, but he is still very strong when he looks at his body, followed by a little girl, the girl's face is shining with immaturity, and even the corners of her eyebrows and eyes reveal innocence.

Unable to figure out the origin of these two people for a while, Chunliu stood at the door to block the inside, looking at the two defensively.

The old man took a step forward with a smile and said, "I am the manager of the pharmacology shop, the day before yesterday, the girl went to the shop to get medicine, and I heard that Miss Xiuyue was injured, so I came to visit." ”

Chunliu is also clever now, she has never heard that Xiuyue still knows any people from the pharmacology shop, and Xiuyue is now seriously injured and unable to move, she hurriedly closed the door behind her, and said with a wary face: "I haven't heard that our young lady still knows you, who are you?" ”

After all, Chunliu is still young, two years younger than Xiuyue, who is about eighteen now, although she tries her best to straighten her waist, she still looks thin, and she has no confidence when she comes and goes.

The girl who had not spoken on the side suddenly spoke: "I'm Xiaoshan, I know Sister Xiuyue, you go and ask my sister." ”

Chunliu looked at the small shirt on the side, it seemed to be a little smaller than her, but her body bones were already as tall as her, her face was dark, and only a pair of big vivid eyes were left to catch the eye.

I was puzzled, but Chunliu didn't feel malice from the two of them, thought about it, looked at the two of them and said, "You guys wait outside the door first." ”

After speaking, he immediately opened the door and dodged in, and then plugged in the courtyard door, only then did he hear her footsteps.

The little shirt outside the door glanced white, looked up at the steward on the side, and said, "Grandpa steward, why are we?" ”

The old man raised his hand and patted her hard, and said sternly: "Later, you must apologize seriously, you know?" “

Although Xiao Yi was a little puzzled in his heart, he still nodded, but he couldn't help muttering: "Sister Shenxin, she ......"

The steward looked at Xiao Yi and smiled helplessly.

This child was picked up by him from outside the house, at that time, she was a little girl, sitting on the ground and staring at the big eyes looking at the people coming and going, she looked at the people who gave her food, and she didn't speak, and didn't give her food.

Waiting to bring it back, he has been raising it as his daughter, he has been conscientious all his life, after the death of the lady a few years ago, he did not remarry, and he has no children under his knees.

Thinking of this, he looked at the courtyard gate, the ordinary courtyard gate, but he knew that the girl in it was not simple.

He has been in the house for a long time, almost longer than that Director Xiao and Manager Rong, he has lived for most of his life, no one has seen it, there are so many things these days, he already knows something, maybe the next thing is bloody, others are old, it doesn't matter what the end is, but the child is different, in the final analysis, if you have a good fate, even if you don't come to the rescue, at least, you won't fall into the well.

The steward sighed even more.

Just as he was about to take two more steps to the shirt on the side, the door suddenly opened.

Chunliu popped up and said, "Go in." ”

After speaking, he also focused on the shirt on the side.

Waiting for the shirt and the steward to walk in, Chunliu patted the clothes and turned around and walked towards the main compartment.

People who have been staying in the courtyard may not be able to notice it, but for people like Xiaoyi and the steward who have never stepped into the courtyard of Xiuyue, as soon as they enter, they can clearly perceive a hint of difference.

Xiao Yi's face was just puzzled, but the steward had this expression.

Because when they stepped into the courtyard, they suddenly felt more sunny, and not only that, but a refreshing wind would blow from all directions, and they seemed to feel a lot more comfortable.

Xiuyue shouted in the house to come in, and the two of them came back to their senses and walked in with the voice.

The steward walked in, and did not close the door, so he opened the door and stopped, stood next to the door frame, and pushed the small shirt on one side forward, the small shirt was defenseless, and staggered to the side of Xiuyue's bed.

Xiu Yue looked at Xiaoyi and said with a smile: "You are looking for me, what is the matter?" ”

The steward stood at the door and responded with a smile: "It was Xiaoshan's fault a few days ago, the girl was buried yesterday, and Xiaoxiao was still young, so I brought it over to apologize to the girl." ”
