The pen falls on the rice paper, and the rain hits the eaves

This rain also fell to Zhongyi Houfu.

Last night, a little maid named Wan'er found Zhongyi Houfu and Chai Xintong.

When she saw this acquaintance, she seemed to have a settled heart, and she couldn't help it anymore, so she threw herself into Chai Xintong's arms.

Holding a stack of silver tickets tremblingly in his hand, he handed it to Chai Xintong.

Chai Xintong has been in the morning since the morning came, and his face has been bad, and when he saw the little maid like this, his heart hurt for no reason.

"This is given to you by the Nine Immortals, you can take it!"

Wan'er cried into tears and immediately knelt on the ground.

"Miss and little gentleman, don't you want to be Wan'er?"

Chai Xintong had tears in his eyes, some things were not something he could get if he wanted to, he helped Wan'er up, held back the tears, and showed a pale smile.

"How can you not be Wan'er, but Wan'er is obedient, you collect these silver tickets first, stay here, and return to Tongzhou with us in a few days." ”

When Wan'er heard this, she burst into tears and immediately asked, "Really?"

Chai Xintong nodded firmly.

......

After Chai Xintong comforted Wan'er, he returned to the room by himself, not noisy or noisy, and there was no expression of hysterical emotions, but this was the case, which made Xu Changan and the others even more uneasy.

Among the four people, Shen Lang is still young, where can he understand this feeling; He Chen was in Youzhou before, it was difficult to make a living, and he studied and practiced all day, where would he think about these things; as for Kong Dewei, he was even more unbearable, a pure nerd, and the master who couldn't tell the difference between men and women. The only one who has a little emotional experience is Xu Changan.

But Xu Changan didn't know how to appease him, he had the pain of parting, he had uncomfortable, but he had never tried the helplessness of the girl he liked to marry someone else.

If it is an ordinary family, he can carry a sword, cut down the groom, and take away the bride, but they are courtiers, and the groom is from the family of the Son of Heaven!

Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and on the shore of the land, it is not the king's ministers. In this matter, Xu Chang'an has a hurdle in his heart that he can't get over, let alone Chai Xintong, who has been reading poetry and books since he was a child.

When it was very late at night, Xu Changan got up at night, he thought about it, and quietly walked to the window of Chai Xintong, only to see that the candle was still on, and a shadow was imprinted motionless in front of the window.

Only when the wind rises, the shadow sways with the candle flame.

Xu Changan sighed, and then returned to his room.

This night, the four of them didn't know how many times they watched this scene, and in the end they could only sigh, shake their heads and walk away.

At dawn, the rain stopped slightly. The air was filled with the scent of earth, and a few early birds were chirping.

Everyone got up, washed up, and had breakfast, and several people looked at each other and looked at the rest of the breakfast.

Xu Changan glanced at He Chen, He Chen hurriedly waved his hand, and then he looked at Shen Lang, Shen Lang scratched his head, although he knew what was going on, he still didn't understand, after all, Shen Lang was only in his kindergarten years. Then he turned his gaze to Kong Dewei and sighed, this guy, don't count on him.

Xu Changan carried the breakfast, walked to Chai Xintong's room, and knocked lightly.

After a long wait, the door finally opened.

is different from the imaginary messy and decadent, Chai Xintong is no different from usual except for a few extra beards and a little haggard.

He saw that it was Xu Changan and smiled reluctantly.

"Worries you. As he spoke, he made a gesture of please, and Xu Changan brought breakfast in.

The two sat at the table, Chai Xintong lowered his head to eat, and he didn't talk much, Xu Chang'an's mouth opened several times, but he didn't know what to say.

In the end, he saw Chai Xintong drinking soy milk desperately, and finally spoke.

"Miss Fan, there must be a hardship. ”

Chai Xintong paused, and then swallowed heavily, this little gentleman, who has always been elegant except for drinking, looked a little embarrassed today.

"Chang'an seems to be calm recently, but I feel like a lot of things have happened. ”

Xu Changan was a little embarrassed and immediately changed the topic.

Chai Xintong raised his head suddenly, his voice a little choked.

"Do me a favor, okay?"

Xu Chang'an nodded solemnly.

"I want to see the little master. ”

Xu Changan was a little surprised, thought for a while and said, "I don't know where he went, I'll go to the Jin Palace" and ask later!"

"Thank you. After Chai Xintong finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued to chew heavily.

After eating, Chai Xintong wiped his mouth with his sleeve, stood up, and walked out the door.

"Where are you going?" asked Xu Changan worriedly.

Chai Xintong didn't answer him this question, stopped at the door, and turned his back to him.

"Thank you, Chang'an, I'll go wash up, and naturally I can't be dirty when I go to see the little master. ”

Xu Changan nodded, and hurriedly rushed towards the Jin Palace, the King of Jin seemed to know that he was coming, and the first sentence was: "Let Mr. Chai Xiao go alone There is a bamboo valley a hundred miles outside the city, and the little master is there!"

After finishing speaking, there was no intention of leaving guests, Xu Changan hurried back to the Hou Mansion, pushed open the door, and saw Chai Xintong dressed neatly and cleanly, and his beard was also shaved cleanly, except for his eyes were slightly red.

"A hundred miles outside the city, there is a bamboo valley. ”

After Xu Changan finished speaking, Chai Xintong stood up.

His back paused in the doorway.

"Xu Changan. ”

Xu Changan was a little surprised, and he was a little unaccustomed to being called by his full name by his brother who had a better relationship.

"Huh?"

"Between me and the Nine Immortals, there is mutual trust, I know that she has a hard time, and I probably understand what is going on. But there are some forces that you and I can't compete with, and some muddy waters, and it's not that we can?, I can't help it, I chose this path, I should always do something, but you are different, what happens in the future, don't ask, be your little marquis, and when the little master announces the results of the literary examination, the two of them will naturally leave, and you will treat it as if nothing happened. ”

Xu Changan felt faintly uneasy in his heart, and only then did he want to speak, but he saw that there was no more Chai Xintong's back at the door.

He hurriedly glanced around the room, only to see that everything that belonged to Chai Xintong was gone.

The rain gradually stopped, and the rain on the eaves "ticked" and "ticked" fell, and Xu Changan's heart beat hard.

He walked to the desk, and saw a lot of rice paper lying messily on it.

Xu Changan kept flipping the pile of rice paper, only to see that it was full of messy "nine" characters, like a child's graffiti.

No one would have thought that in Tongzhou, Mr. Chai, who is a master of calligraphy, would write words like children's graffiti.

Looking at the thick stack of "nine" characters like Hu paintings, Xu Changan was a little annoyed.

He had just been deceived by Chai Xintong's composure.

A gust of wind suddenly blew in, and the stack of "nine" characters scattered all over the ground.

Bursts of thunder were heard in the distance, deafening.

"The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings!" Xu Changan looked at the window in a daze, thought about it, and finally walked out of the Hou Mansion.
