Zhou Ranmao took Xia Jingyan's men and got out of the carriage, it was a very warm and sweet scene, no one noticed that there was Xia Jingchen standing in front of the Xia Wang's Mansion waiting with big eyes, and Xia Jingsheng and Xia Jingxuan, who were helplessly pulled out and waiting together.

The moment Zhou Ranmiao and Xia Jingyan looked back and saw them, they almost knelt down with weak legs.

"It's been eight days, and you still know how to come back!"

Xia Jingchen waved his sword and slashed straight at Zhou Ranmiao, and Zhou Ranmiao ran away when he saw this, after all, heroes don't eat the losses in front of them.

On the long street, one after the other ran fast.

"Bastard Zhou peeling! I treat you as a brother, and you elope with my sister! ”

Xia Jingsheng, Xia Jingxuan, and Xia Jingyan watched from afar, and their hearts trembled: "Zhou Ranmao, take care......"

As a result, he was reprimanded by Xia Jingchen, of course, the main training was Zhou Ranmao, his baby sister, just say a few words!

Subsequently, Xia Jingchen was ruthless, and for the first time, he used his privilege as an elder brother to give Xia Jingyan a half-day ban, what? Zhou Ranmao? Half! It's all light!

Xia Jingyan took care of his own losses, so he didn't rely on his brothers not to punish him, and reluctantly said goodbye to Zhou Ranmiao, and returned to the Yuqing Pavilion.

Just when he was bored, Zhao Jichen's carrier pigeon flew into the house, and Xia Jingyan thought that it must be Tianzhu Pavilion that put back the news, so he immediately opened the letter and came to see.

"Yan'er, Tianzhu Pavilion sent a letter back, Mr. Zhou is undoubted, his hometown is in the Zhonggu next to the Yi River in Nanjiang, and Gu Yun is ancestral cousin, just met, the person who hurt you and framed Mr. Zhou is not yet known, but it is suspected that it is the Beijiang Qi royal family, Tianzhu Pavilion's secret son in the Qi country said that the King of Qi also has a similar cup, and the King of Qi seems to have a grudge against Mr. Zhou, and I heard that you are friendly with Mr. Zhou, and I am afraid of the power of the Xia Wangfu so I dare not open my mouth to ask for someone, and the news is here for the time being."

After reading the letter, Xia Jingyan was completely relieved, burned the letter, and wrote back to Zhao Jichen:

"Brother Chen, there is no need to investigate, Dye Hao confessed to me that he was following him at night, but for another reason, I just went to Nanjiang, Dye Hao and I explained that it is no different from the investigation of Tianzhu Pavilion, there is nothing to suspect, it is obvious that King Qi intends to cause panic, otherwise, which dead man would be so stupid and confide in secrets so easily? Recently, we have paid attention to the king of Qi. ”

Xia Jingyan drew a smiling face on the paper again, tied the letter to the pigeon's feet, and then let the pigeon fly away, and then it was a difficult afternoon.

Although it is difficult to endure time without a sweetheart, time will always pass.

In the evening, Xia Jingyan was about to rest in peace, but he heard the sound in the courtyard again, so he quickly turned over and raised his sword, and when he came to the window, he realized that it was Zhou Ranmao who had climbed over the wall.

"You...... What are you doing here! Xia Jingyan hurriedly turned off the light, lowered his voice and said, "Dye, during the grounding period, my brother will punish you when you come out!" If you tell me something, I'll just look for you! ”

"Yan'er, I miss you!" Zhou Ran held back a smile, beckoned Xia Jingyan to get closer, and kissed her secretly.

At this moment, there was the sound of the night patrol maids walking in the corridor, and Xia Jingyan hurriedly pulled Zhou Ranmao into the house, so as not to be discovered.

"Yan'er, I'm cold, hug." Zhou Ranmiao smiled and hugged Xia Jingyan into his arms.

"Oh, okay......" Xia Jingyan was inexplicably a little disappointed, hugged for a while and then gently pushed Zhou Ranmao away.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Ranmiao was quite aggrieved.

I braved the ban to find Xia Jingyan at night, but I was disgusted!

"Dye, you came just in time, you asked me to confess a lot, and I also have some ...... I need to be honest with you. Xia Jingyan lowered his head and pulled Zhou Ranmiao to sit on the edge of the collapse.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Ranmao took Xia Jingyan into his arms.

He saw Xia Jingyan's eyes full of sadness.

"Dying, I'm going to tell you ......"

Xia Jingyan hesitated again, looking back at Zhou Ranmiao's clear eyes, she couldn't bear it......

"Dyeing, what kind of me do you love, I am the lady that outsiders want to see, and I am the untainted world that my brother requires, but you also heard it, I am not such a person......"

Zhou Ran was stunned, by the way, there is also the matter of Tianzhu Pavilion, Xia Jingyan is the master of Tianzhu Pavilion.

Xia Jingyan left the couch, walked to the window next to the table, took a pair of sharp scissors on the windowsill, and returned to the table, bringing a pot of green plants that were growing in full bloom.

"I'm not a delicate and weak county lord, like that qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, I don't know anything, because I don't think it's of much use to me, dye, maybe you think that the palace is powerful and powerful, but some you still don't know, and the palace is also in crisis."

Xia Jingyan said as he pruned the green plants at hand.

"The brothers and brothers have always been upright in the court, so they have also offended many former emperors and former ministers, and the Xia family is now like this, most of them still have the old relationship between their father and the first emperor and the desperate efforts of the brothers and sisters to guard the country, but now, the father has passed away, and the brothers and sisters are still young, so there are always people eyeing the palace."

"Don't look at this as if the world is peaceful now, in fact, there are undercurrents surging everywhere, especially the royal family, it is even more fatal, I am not afraid to tell you, today's Emperor Yuan is mediocre, addicted to beauty and not doing his job, and traitorous ministers are in charge, it is not easy for the palace to keep this world like this, every time I go out at night, I can always see the lights in Brother Wang's pavilion when I pass by, and from time to time there are one or two coughs, I am distressed as a sister, but I don't know how to help."

"Female dependents are not allowed to interfere in politics, even the county lord is the same, Brother Wang never talks to me about officialdom, saying that he is afraid that I will be involved in danger, but I am not afraid, I just want to help Brother Wang, but all the time, I can't change Brother Wang's mind, so I have to send tea and snacks to Brother Wang and his brothers, I always feel useless."

"Until one day, I went out to participate in the hunting, a noble man in the palace thought I had too many things, and deliberately abandoned me in the deep valley, and did not allow people to come to me, I was not afraid, I thought that I would just walk back alone, but it happened that the people of Tianzhu Pavilion were saved in the valley."

"I was too young at that time, and my martial arts were poor, but my courage was not small, at that time, it was Brother Hechen who took the people of Tianzhu Pavilion to avoid the pursuit of another sect, but was blocked in the valley by another sect, and Brother Chen's brother gradually lost the enemy, so he was collectively tied up and thrown in the mountains, and the master of the sect said that he was going to starve to death the people of Tianzhu Pavilion, so he was tied up and left, leaving only two people to guard and wait for the corpses to be collected."

"Coincidentally, when I saw this scene, I couldn't bear to lose so many people's lives in front of me, so I did a favor, scattered some sweat medicine and put down the two guards, rescued Brother and Chen, and showed them the way down the mountain, and Brother Chen said at the time that he was the young master of Tianzhu Pavilion, saying that he was so great and would repay him in the future, I didn't take it seriously, who knew that a few days after I returned to the house, and Brother Chen really came to the palace as a guest, and said that he would do his best to repay me in Tianzhu Pavilion."

"I thought about it, and I didn't know what Tianzhu Pavilion could do for me, and I was about to refuse, but I heard Brother Wang and the second brother complain that an old minister of the emperor in the court bought a concubine by virtue of his power, and the concubine was unwilling, so he was beaten to death, but after all, it was also a matter of others, Brother Wang couldn't control it, and in the officialdom, that person was also aggressive, but unfortunately, Brother Wang couldn't get rid of him for a while, because there were too many involved, dyeing, you know, I can't see Brother Wang unhappy......"

Hearing this, Zhou Ranmiao's doubts about Xia Jingyan seemed to be solved in an instant.

I see......

"I did it, and I implore Brother Hechen to use the Tianzhu Pavilion Dead Soldier to ...... that person The brothers were still puzzled at the time, who could kill the minister of the second rank of the court, the capital was still lively for a long time, more than a dozen officials investigated the matter, I was really scared, I heard anyone say this I avoided walking, but the minister's brother did not make any waves, and told me that no one would know. ”

"Later, it turned out to be the case, even the people sent by Brother Wang privately couldn't find out the handwriting of Tianzhu Pavilion, and after that, there were more people killed, so I was not afraid, I killed all the people who blocked Brother Wang and my brother's way...... All, all...... No one was spared. ”

Xia Jingyan turned sideways, and his hands were trembling in pruning the green plants.

Zhou Ranmiao saw her bloodshot eyes, hurriedly stepped forward, stood beside her and hugged her gently.

Suddenly, Xia Jingyan grabbed Zhou Ranmiao's hand, and Zhou Ranmiao was startled.

"Do you think I'm scary?" Xia Jingyan said word by word, she stared at Zhou Ranmiao with wide eyes, and tears fell from her eyes.

"Huh?" Zhou Ranmiao didn't react for a while.

"In my brother's eyes, I am innocent, and by your side, I have to pretend, always pretending that I am innocent, but in fact, ...... My hands are covered in blood......"

Xia Jingyan's hand groped, quietly grabbed Zhou Dye's waist, and leaned on his arms.

After so many years, Xia Jingyan also pretended to be tired.

"Brother Wang and my brother never allowed me to kill anyone, unless I had to, they always avoided me when they sentenced people to death, afraid that I would be frightened, but they didn't know that I was never afraid, and the people I killed were enough to put out a mountain of corpses, a sea of blood, and what I was afraid of was that they disliked me......"

"How can it be Yan'er, the prince loves Yan'er the most, and the Hou Ye and the general also regard you as their fate, they won't." Zhou Ranmiao patted Xia Jingyan's back.

At first, Zhou Ranmiao really felt that Xia Jingyan was a little scary, but then he thought about it, it was just compared to other women, if he was replaced by these outlaws like himself, what did Xia Jingyan do? Who wouldn't be for themselves? After thinking it through, Zhou Ranmao felt that Xia Jingyan didn't care about this.

"Then knowing this, will you still love me as much as you used to?" Xia Jingyan lay in Zhou Ranmao's arms, tugging at his sleeve and whispering.

"Of course." Zhou Ranmiao touched Xia Jingyan's green silk.

Hearing this, Xia Jingyan relieved his heart, slowly let go of Zhou Ranmao, pulled him to sit down, and continued to prune the green plant.

Zhou Ranmao noticed that except for the main branch, the rest of the green plant was about to be strangled by Xia Jingyan, how could it be so pruned?

But he would soon know that Xia Jingyan's purpose was not to prune at all.

"Dye Mao, don't tell Brother Wang and Brother about this, let alone outsiders, as our secret, okay?" Xia Jingyan's tone suddenly calmed down.

"Okay." Zhou Ranmao responded.

"Dye, I admit that I am a crazy demon, for this family, for my brother, for you, I can do anything, in government affairs, I can't help my brother, but the people who stand in my brother's way......"

Xia Jingyan paused and moved the scissors to the main branch of the green plant.

"I get it."

The voice fell, and the main branch was broken.
