Qiu Ruoruo walked past Bai Yu's side, looked at Bai Yu and Wang Shi, and then walked to Yu Zhi's side.

"Brother Xiaoyu, are you okay?"

Yu Zhi smiled, his injuries were not serious, and his miserable appearance made Qiu Ruoruo misunderstand. "It's fine. How could I have been bullied by someone else? ”

Yu Zhi raised his hand to touch Qiu Ruoruo's head, thinking that his hands were covered with mud, so he stopped in mid-air and slowly put it down.

Qiu Ruoruo turned her head to look at the guy who was about to shackle Yu Zhi, her eyebrows full of anger. "That's how Shuntianfu's catchers work? It's no wonder that in the streets of Kyoto, it is rumored that Kyoto's reputation is like mud in a gutter. ”

Qiu Ruoruo ignored the sludge on Yu Zhi's hands, reached out to hold Yu Zhi's hand, and pulled him to leave.

"Qiu Ruoruo, this is a matter between me and Yu Zhi, what does it have to do with your Qiu Mansion?" Bai Li was unwilling to let Yu Zhi go, and today he had to leave Yu Zhi's legs.

Qiu Ruoruo still pulled Yu Zhi away, not caring about Bai Li's voice. The child's scolding did little to help the deafening deafening of the sulphuric acid on the empty street. At best, it just makes my ears uncomfortable.

". Child. Bai Li scolded in his mouth, very lightly and sharply.

Bai Yu suddenly turned his head to look at his younger brother, his brows furrowed, these two words were inappropriate to say in this place after all. Even if he wanted to break Yu Zhi's legs just now, Bai Yu didn't stop it, because he felt that Yu Zhi's identity was not enough for him to care.

What about Qiu Ruoruo?

This girl who is only fifteen or sixteen years old and has a prominent presence in the court, with the Qiu family behind her, and everyone in Kyoto wants to be her son-in-law?

The Bai family is engaged in business, economy and politics, and now the Bai family Bai Wanqian is a member of the household department and a member of the court, and he is already a very popular minister.

It's a pity that the rich and powerful Bai family still can't be compared with the Qiu family.

Bai Yu has always been respectful of Qiu Ruoruo, and he knows that if he has the slightest intention, he will become a victim of the marriage between the family and the Qiu family. He is also an ambitious person, he doesn't like Qiu Ruoruo, and he doesn't want anyone to interfere with his life's affairs.

Bai Yu looked at Qiu Ruoruo and Yu Zhi's figures that didn't stop, I don't know if Qiu Ruoruo didn't hear it, or Qiu Ruoruo didn't care. Bai Yu felt that the first possibility was more likely.

"Didn't you hear?" Yu Zhi stopped suddenly, and he asked Qiu Ruoruo with a smile.

Qiu Ruoruo's figure also stopped as Yu Zhi stopped. She turned her head, looked at Yu Zhi and said calmly, "Naturally, I heard it." A small child...... What to do with him? Qiu Ruoruo felt in her heart that it would be better to take Yu Zhi back to Qiu Mansion to carefully examine the injury.

Yu Zhi turned his head to look at Bai Li, who inexplicably felt that he had said the wrong thing.

He frowned, and then looked at Bai Yu and Wang Shi. "Indeed, what to do with a small child."

Saying this, Yu Zhi's tone seemed to mean to the end. A man and a woman spoke these words as if no one was around.

"Qinghuan is not here today, I can't beat you. When Qinghuan comes back, I will come to settle accounts with your Bai family. Yu Zhi said to Bai Yu. He's very calm and realistic. Now that you can't fight, you will always suffer, pull the tiger skin of the court and retreat calmly.

Obviously cowardly, there was no sense of disobedience in Yu Zhi's mouth, and it even made people listen to the meaning that it was not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.

This young man is brave after his shame!

The people who watched the excitement came to such a conclusion out of thin air.

"I'm waiting for Ye Qinghuan."

Hearing Ye Qinghuan's name, Bai Yu instantly ignited a raging battle intent, and Ye Qinghuan's sword at that time appeared in his mind. In the past three years, Ye Qinghuan has been regarded by him as a lifelong enemy, and it is both a shame and a glory to be defeated under that sword. Bai Yu couldn't take it himself, so he was confident that no one among his peers would be able to take it.

Bai Yu said that he was waiting for Ye Qinghuan, not waiting for Yu Zhi. He still didn't take Yu Zhi in his eyes, in fact, he had been waiting for Ye Qinghuan for three years. Wait for Ye Qinghuan, who disappeared, to return to Kyoto, and then fight again, using the sword in his hand to cut off the sword three years ago.

......

In the small courtyard to the east of Qiu Mansion, Yu Zhi sat with Qiu Jinfeng early in the morning, with four bowls of millet porridge and a plate of mustard on the table. This time, it's not just Yu Zhi and Qiu Jinfeng. On the morning of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Qiu Ruoruo and Qiu Yu were eating breakfast with Qiu Jinfeng.

The three generations of the grandfather and grandson of the Qiu family are all in good spirits, Qiu Ruoruo's brows are a little tired, but it is not obvious, he drinks porridge in small sips, and occasionally sandwiches a mustard. Yu Zhi yawned heavily, barely opened his eyelids, looked at the whiteness of the sky, and then closed his eyes again.

He never thought that Qiu An woke up himself in the morning, but it was for a bowl of millet porridge? He didn't want to drink porridge with the autumn breeze that went to bed late and got up early every day, and it was dull and tasteless.

Ahem, ahem!

Qiu Ruoruo coughed a few times, and kicked Yu Zhi again with his foot under the table. This made Yu Zhi sober up a little painfully.

Yu Zhi wiped the corners of his mouth, held his breath in his heart, and said, "You called me so early for this bowl of millet porridge?" Yu Zhi felt that this was wrong, and added: "I can accompany you at noon, at night, and in the middle of the night." But why is it morning? We young people are growing up, we can't get up early, and just drinking millet porridge is too nutritious. You see, if this girl is stunted, it is always your responsibility. ”

"What do you say?" Qiu Ruoruo saw Yu Zhi pointing at his chest, and his face turned red. Indeed, his chest is not spectacular, even if it is generally a little worse. But how could this guy joke about it?

Qiu Yu squirted out a mouthful of porridge, and when he got up, it was like beating Yu Zhi. He still subconsciously looked at his daughter. Well, the appearance is outstanding, the figure is peugeot, but ...... Slightly worse......

"Boy, you still dislike my daughter. If it is indeed a little inferior...... It's not your turn to dislike it! The people who want to marry her are lined up from the east gate to the west gate! Qiu Yu retorted, but this rebuttal made Qiu Ruoruo's little face red and blue.

Qiu Ruoruo looked at the smiling Qiu Jinfeng, and looked at him for help, stopping one from arguing with the other for the old disrespect.

"Last night, you met Bai Yu and Bai Li. Bai Li sees you as an enemy, what do you think? Qiu Jinfeng said unhurriedly, big and small things in Kyoto would reach his ears in time, and he immediately had an idea, and now he wanted to hear Yu Zhi's thoughts.

Strategizing, it is this artistic conception that wins a thousand miles.

Yu Zhi, who returned to the topic, sobered up a lot, picked up his chopsticks and took a sip of millet porridge before saying: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth." I'm not worried about Bai Li, Bai Yu is more tricky compared to Bai Li. ”

"Oh?" The autumn wind was kind and seductive, waiting for Yu Zhi to continue step by step.

Yu knows helplessness, and there is nothing to say. "Bai Yu knows how to forbear, at least he never showed hatred for me last night, and he would not threaten to cut off my legs like Bai Li. A dog that barks doesn't bite, but a poisonous snake that doesn't make a noise is terrifying. Once Bai Yu has this opportunity, he will not hesitate to break my legs or kill me according to Bai Li's words. ”

Yu Zhi didn't take Bai Yu to heart, but it was the weak Bai Li who left a deeper impression on him.

It's a terrible and dangerous thing.

Remembered a barking puppy and ignored a lurking viper.

"Maybe Bai Yu doesn't like me." Yu Zhi smiled bitterly and guessed.

It was the first time for Qiu Yu to hear Yu Zhiyi say so many words, he was stunned for a moment, and said, "Bai Yu doesn't look down on you. ”

Qiu Yu's words are right, Bai Yu is the successor of the Bai family, he became famous at a young age, his reputation is not weaker than Ye Qinghuan, and his family background is excellent. In the Dachu officialdom, Bai Yu's future achievements will inevitably be much higher than Ye Qinghuan's, because family background accounts for a large part of it.

Ye Qinghuan is alone, has no door, no household, no one to help, he can be recruited in the rivers and lakes, and he can also be recruited by many ministers in the court, but parents and children are completely different.

The Ye Qinghuan in Bai Yu's eyes is Ye Qinghuan who defeated him three years ago, if Ye Qinghuan loses, then Bai Yu will not have this name in his heart.

Yu Zhi's face darkened, and he said that he was self-deprecating, and Qiu Yu said that he was mocking, which was the essential difference.

"You have an enemy now, and you shouldn't have a grudge with those two boys of the Bai family." Qiu Jinfeng said, "Bai Yu is good, he has made some famous names in the court over the years. So far, Bai Wanqian has not paved the way for Bai. This kid is not impatient or impatient, he leaves three points for doing things, and he is relaxed, and he will have a place in the court in the future. ”

Yu Zhi disagreed, and said: "You are all about raising the morale of others and destroying your own prestige. I'm not as good as Bai Yu, next time let Qing Huan come to compare with him? ”

Qiu Jinfeng stroked his gray beard, picked up the handkerchief on the table and wiped the rice grains from the corners of his mouth. His vicissitudes of life are shiny and scary. "Ye Boy is very good. He is the only one who can let His Majesty reopen the Qingyun Test List and nominate the young man on it in Dachu. ”

Yu Zhi looked proud, as if Qiu Jinfeng was really praising himself.

"But......" Qiu Jinfeng changed his words, "Ye Boy can't compare to Bai Yu in the court." ”

At this point, the other three couldn't help but agree. Autumn wind has a pair of old eyes, and the older you get, the more vicious you become. There are only a few young ladies in Kyoto who can get his approval. An evaluation is also to the point.

The three-point rate of the court officialdom is straight and seven points are sleek, so that such a character can rise step by step in the turbulent court. The direct ministers are easy to have a disagreement with the monarch, and the slanderous ministers will inevitably die sooner or later. Both would end badly.

With Ye Qinghuan's personality, entering the court as an official is a long sword by his side, how can there be any prevarication.

Yu Zhi had already imagined in his mind that Ye Qinghuan was standing on the court, looking cold and arrogant. Guys who stand out from the crowd will eventually be sidelined.

"Qing Huan doesn't enter the court." Yu Zhi said.

The autumn wind stroked his beard and pondered. "Maybe in the near future, he can become a sharp sword for Da Chu to deter the rivers and lakes." Qiu Jinfeng is a veteran of Dachu, and even if he is idle at home, he is already concerned about state affairs in his heart.

"Great Chu Xingwu, there are more and more sects in the rivers and lakes, and it will eventually pose a threat to the Great Chu court. With Ye Boy's martial arts talent, he can deter His Majesty from the rivers and lakes in the future. ”

Yu Zhi shook his head secretly, not agreeing with Qiu Jinfeng's opinion. Ye Qinghuan is indeed not suitable to enter the court as an official, he may wander the world like Li Haomiao, punishing evil and promoting good, but let Ye Qinghuan become a sharp sword for Da Chu to control the rivers and lakes, which Yu Zhi does not want to see.

"Qing Huan can become the next Li Haomiao." After Yu Zhi finished speaking, he kept silent. The chopsticks in his hand moved again, pulling the millet porridge that was already slightly cold in the bowl, and occasionally sandwiching a few shredded mustards.

The three of them had already finished eating, just waiting for Yu Zhi.

Yu Zhi and Qiu Ruoruo left, and Qiu Yu was left behind by Qiu Jinfeng. The father and son sat opposite each other, Qiu Jinfeng didn't speak, and Qiu Yu didn't dare to speak. The old man was very strict with himself, and now there is a shadow lingering.

"What do you think of this kid?" Qiu Jinfeng gently rubbed his temples and asked a little tiredly.

Qiu Yu frowned, and in his mind was Yu Zhi some things that were out of tune, as well as the name of the shame of asking. Last time, Qiu Jinfeng asked Qiu Yu to help Yu Zhi, but he didn't want to do it in his heart, but it was Qiu Jinfeng's order. Fortunately, Yu Zhi never looked for him.

"Dad, I've been watching people for decades. You know this kid better than I do. ”

Qiu Jinfeng glanced at Qiu Yu, and this glance alone made the commander of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, the big man of the Kyoto realm, bow his head. Immediately, Qiu Jinfeng sighed again and said: "You have been good at martial arts since you were a child, so I will send you to learn martial arts." It's a pity that it's an elm head, I don't know if it's stupid to learn martial arts, or if it's born like this. I ask you something, you just answer it well, what do you need to hide from me? On weekdays, you don't come to me to say bad things about Yu Zhi. Why are you okay today? ”

Qiu Yu scratched his head, in front of the old spicy autumn wind, he was always the one who was seen through. "Dad, I didn't say it, I didn't know what you thought about him. Any person in Kyoto is better than Yu Zhi. I'm really careful that if I follow this kid for a long time, I will learn to be like Yu Zhi. ”

In fact, what Qiu Yu was really worried about was that Yu Zhi abducted Qiu Ruoruo. He Qiuyu is such a daughter, and it is too late for him to feel distressed.

"Didn't you listen to Yu Zhi's words about Bai Yu just now? Can't you see something? Qiu Jinfeng hinted, his tone quite anxious.

Qiu Yu can sit in the position of the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and he is naturally not a stupid person. He thought about it carefully and said, "Yu knows that this kid has a bad heart and slanders Bai Yu in front of us, just because we don't have eyes. ”

Qiu Jinfeng suddenly coughed violently a few times, and then drove his son, who was neither attractive nor useful, out of the east courtyard.

Yu Zhi's statement is not unreasonable, and to a certain extent, it is very consistent with the autumn wind. But why can't his own son Qiuyu see it?

"Qiu'an, do you think this kid is my own?" Qiu Jinfeng asked angrily.

Qiu An replied while gently patting Qiu Jinfeng's back, "The young master is still young. "In front of Qiu Jinfeng, Qiu An has always called Qiu Yu a young master, he has watched Qiu Yu grow up, just like his own child.

"Don't speak for him. When he made mistakes when he was a child, he would look for you to protect him, but he is nearly forty years old this year, but he still doesn't grow like this. "The autumn spirit does not come in one place.

Qiu An just smiled when he heard this. "You can't see Young Master Xiaoyu clearly, Young Master is not as good as you, how can he see clearly?"

Qiu Jinfeng's expression calmed down, looked at the snow outside the house, and said, "So do you see it clearly?" ”

"Young Master Xiao Yu doesn't act according to common sense, and he has never been a child who follows the rules. Don't say you didn't see it clearly, I want to ask Master Li in the academy to be kept in the dark by Young Master Xiaoyu. ”

"Well, I'm just afraid of his unexpected style." There was deep worry in Qiu Jinfeng's eyes.

......

Yu Zhi never thought that the conversation between Qiu Jinfeng's father and son behind him was actually about him.

In his hand he was holding an embroidery needle, which he had obtained from the embroidery lady. He thought it was good, so he secretly hid one. He didn't tell Qiu Yu about Mr. San's private school, the killers are all characters who lick blood from the knife edge, and they must have slipped away when they heard yesterday's threat, how could they wait for Yu Zhi to come to the door to encircle and suppress them?

When Yu Zhi walked out of the gate of the Qiu Mansion, he saw Wang Dafu waiting here early.

Wang Dafu didn't sleep well last night, the dark circles under his eyes were like pandas, and he came to Qiufu to wait for Yu Zhi as soon as it was dawn. Just one day after returning to Kyoto yesterday, Wang Dafu found that the coachman's work was not easy.

Last night, when Wang Dafu saw the bloody Yu Zhi, he thought that this was not a matter of guarding the city gate, but if he didn't know it, he would send the northern border to guard the frontier. After spending the whole night worriedly, he understood that he had to follow Yu Zhi no matter what, and even if he died, he would die in front of Yu Zhi.

"Young Master Xiaoyu." Wang Dafu cried with a sad face, and he was not happy when he saw that Yu Zhi was planning to leave the house.

After all, this guy is the master who can get into trouble wherever he goes.

"Early."

"Where are you going today, young master? Why don't you go to Aoyama Lake in Kyoto to enjoy the snow, or go to worship the ancient trees of Linquan to seek marriage? Wang Dafu thought about leading Yu Zhi to those places where the young master of Kyoto would not go, so that there would always be less trouble.

Yu Zhi was really interested when he heard it, "Linquan Ancient Tree? Seeking marriage? You take me around. Yu Zhi thought that he and Wantong had not yet skimmed the eight characters, and they had not even studied the ink well, so they should always take advantage of the New Year to seek marriage.

The ancient tree of Rinsen is famous in Kyoto, on the other side of the lake. It is said that a clear spring and an ancient tree are very meaningful. I don't know when the fame of this ancient tree has spread in Kyoto. The fulfillment of those who seek marriage is the best verification.

As a result, the ancient trees in Linquan, which are located in the remote area, are worshiped with incense every day, and the infatuated men and women who come to seek marriage often come one after another.

"Does the young master have a favorite?" Wang Dafu asked in the carriage.

Yu Zhi thought about Li Wantong's appearance, and responded: "Naturally, there is." ”

"Which girl in Kyoto is so lucky?" Wang Dafu guessed in his heart that it was Qiu Ruoruo. Because Qiu Ruoruo really cares too much about Yu Zhi.

"She's not in Kyoto. I have the opportunity to meet you. Yu Zhi talked about things related to Li Wantong, and he was very happy in his heart.
