"Yang Lang, my clothes look good today. Xiaotong was wearing the clothes that Yang Qian bought for her, spinning in front of Yang Qian, happily dancing Hu Xuan dance.

Seeing that Yang Qian's heart was itching, he wanted to hug the lovely person in front of him, but found that Xiaotong had turned into countless butterflies, fluttering, and flying to a place out of Yang Qian's reach.

"Don't go, Xiaotong begs you not to go. Yang Qian wanted to use light skills to chase after him, but found that he couldn't use his strength at all.

"Yang Qian, tell me the whereabouts of Lu Xun's widow. Suddenly, Xiaotong changed into a strong suit, his eyes were cold, and he stabbed Yang Qian's liver and intestines.

Yang Qian looked at the 'stranger' in front of him and shouted, "You are not Xiaotong, who are you?" Yes, you are Tian Xiaotong! You are Tian Xiaotong! ”

"Hahaha~~~" Tian Xiaotong looked up to the sky and laughed, his laughter was full of mockery.

"You yourself are singing outside every night, and you still want me to return Xiaotong to you, you are really delusional. Tian Xiaotong's words were like a sharp knife inserted in Yang Qian's chest, not bleeding, but heartbreaking.

"I will change, I will definitely change in the future. Yang Qian roared hysterically.

"It's too late......" Tian Xiaotong turned into Xiaotong, with tears in her eyes. Then Xiaotong turned into Tian Xiaotong again, her eyes were sharp, "She can't hear what you said anymore." ”

Yang Qian covered his head, feeling like he had exploded. Suddenly, it was pitch black in front of me, and so was it all around me.

"Son of a bitch, you are not a thing like your mother, and you live up to my trust. The middle-aged man held a blood-stained wattle in his hand and looked at the little boy kneeling on the ground with hatred.

The boy's upper body was naked, and his back was already stained with blood. The whip marks all show the origin of the blood on the wattles.

Yang Qian's eyes widened, and he said in his heart: "That's not me, that man is my father." ”

"I didn't do anything wrong, I just wanted to walk outside. The little boy's immature voice couldn't hide the fear in his heart. The stubborn eyes can't hide the desire for family affection. The trembling body in the cold wind can't hide the yearning for freedom.

But the middle-aged man ignored this and slapped the little boy on the back hard. "Son of a bitch, how many times have I said that if you give me a good study, you are not allowed to go. ”

"But my brother can go anywhere......" the boy replied stubbornly.

This caused the middle-aged man to be angry, and he constantly whipped the little boy. shouted in his mouth, "Son of a bitch, dare not listen to Lao Tzu." ”

Yang Qian wanted to step forward to stop it, but found that there was an impassable high wall in front of him, which he couldn't see but could touch.

"Don't fight again......" Yang Qian woke up from the nightmare, sweating profusely, with tears hanging from the corners of his eyes that had not yet dried.

Yang Qian said to himself: "It turns out that this is just a dream, but ......" In the dark, he stretched out his hand, vaguely feeling the truth.

A chuckle, is it self-deprecation to oneself, or is it ridiculous to be afraid of dreams.

Yang Qian lifted the quilt and wiped his face with a towel on the bedside dresser, and found that his sleepiness was completely gone. Staying in the house was also boring, so he put on his clothes, pushed the door out, and wandered around the back garden of Zhang's house.

However, next to the lotus pond in the back garden, he unexpectedly met Tuoba Shiruo. She was leaning on the stone guardrail of the lotus pond, alone in a daze.

Yang Qianqi said: "Why are you here?"

Tuoba Shiruo squinted at the person who came, found that it was Yang Qian, and said lightly: "You don't have no rest." ”

"I can't sleep, come out for a walk. Yang Qian sighed and raised his eyes to look at the starry sky.

Tuoba Shiruo said: "I saw that my biological mother was stimulated, so I couldn't sleep." ”

Yang Qian glanced at Tuoba Shiruo and said, "Sometimes being too smart is not necessarily a good thing. ”

Tuoba Shiruo looked indifferent, and said with a smile: "This kind of me is the most real, I will not wronged myself to please others, and I will truly return to the basics!"

Yang Qian smiled knowingly and said, "You may be right, but I'm too stubborn." ”

"It's good to know, you just can't let it go, so you're tortured. Thus choosing to indulge oneself and numb oneself, knowing that the result of indulgence is loss. Tuoba Shiruo looked at Yang Qian and said very seriously: "You ask yourself, how much have you lost, and how much have you gained?"

Yang Qian was silent, not knowing how to answer.

After a long silence, Yang Qian suddenly spoke: "Why can't you sleep?"

"Hey, I'm reminded of an old man. Tuoba Shiruo sighed.

"Oh, who is it?" Yang Qian asked curiously.

"Xiao Wrong!" Tuoba Shiruo replied.

"Xiao Wrong?" Yang Qian silently read his name and asked, "Is it the person who disturbed the Central Plains two years ago?" ”

"There's nothing wrong with that, it's just that he's been framed. "If Tuoba poems think of the old people," like a lonely goose that has lost its tracks, flying against the wind in the ruthless rivers and lakes. ”

Yang was touched and said: "The ruthless rivers and lakes, it's really difficult for him." I heard that he later retired after Piri's death, how did you suddenly remember to mention him? ”

Tuoba Shiruo said: "I met a person today, who is the shadow on our wall. As I lay in bed, I remembered that I had actually seen him before. He used to be Pirizi's subordinate, but then disappeared inexplicably. I didn't expect him to become Tian Xiaotong's subordinate, it's really unbelievable. ”

Yang Qian clasped his arms in his hands, thought for a moment, and guessed: "Maybe someone is holding him with a lot of money, but the content of what he says is not very similar." It's probably a great favor that makes him willing to come forward to help. ”

"I'm not curious about his appearance, I'm just curious about his identity. Tuoba Shiruo put his hands on his cheeks and rested his elbows on the cold stone railing.

Yang Qian smiled: "Now it's my turn to say you, it's worth not sleeping all night for such a thing." It is imperative to complete the roster as soon as possible. If nothing is found, immediately head south and raze the island first. ”

Tuoba Shiruo pursed her lips and didn't want to pay attention to him.

The next day, everyone got up early. After a simple breakfast, I plunged headlong into the thick roster.

This dynasty implemented a system of three public and six ministries, and the local system was two-level at the state and county levels. In addition, the officials retained in the imperial examinations over the years are very complex. It was not easy for Feng Huaien to borrow the old archives from the Ministry of Officials twenty years ago by virtue of his connections.

Faced with a variety of names, a variety of resumes, and a headache of origin. Everything is carefully examined, and there is no negligence in the slightest, so as not to omit it.

The Zhang family can be described as the mobilization of the whole family, Zhang Zongzhou, Xia Jinmei, Zhang Chuyu, Zhang Qichao and Wei Yan. Yang Qian, Tuoba Shiruo, and Feng Huaien, together are eight people.

I spent a few days on the roster.

There was no movement in the Zhang Mansion, which was beyond Tian Xiaotong's expectations. She thought that Yang Qian had discovered her traces and would definitely chase after her, but she didn't expect that there was no movement.

And the Zhang family is also very hidden, and her subordinates can't penetrate at all.

On this day, Tian Xiaotong couldn't help it, so he and Ji Jiao disguised themselves as grandchildren, while Mu Xiaoxue disguised themselves as maids, and the three of them circled around Zhang's mansion, trying to find an opportunity to get information.

Mu Xiaoxue went to inquire about the information first, but returned in vain.

The three of them rested in the teahouse not far from Zhang's house, which was located right opposite the gate of Zhang's house. People who come in and out can see it clearly.

Tian Xiaotong couldn't hide her loss: "What the hell is the Zhang family doing, it's so mysterious." ”

"Could it be that the Zhang family is suspicious, in fact, Yang Qian and the others have already gone south to deal with Hangdao. Mu Xiaoxue guessed.

Ji Jiao shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be, Hangdao is already at the end of the crossbow, and with Geng Shuxuan's containment, it is already a lamb to be slaughtered." Zhang Qichao's most important thing is to deal with us, if not, they must be doing something more important. ”

Mu Xiaoxue suggested: "Miss, according to our subordinates, why should we care about them, it is better to go south first to help the Lord of Ji Island recapture the island." Then destroy Hangdao and Huidao. ”

Tian Xiaotong glanced at her coldly and said, "People have no long-term concerns, but they must have near-term worries." The big things they are doing may have something to do with us. In any case, we have to find out by all means. ”

Mu Xiaoxue felt embarrassed, "The Zhang family has not allowed outsiders to enter these days. And the people in the house are not allowed to come out if they have nothing to do. The purchased items are delivered to the door, and Zhang Chuyu can only transport them in after seeing them in person. Only goods are allowed in, no one is allowed to enter. ”

The three of them were silent for a while, and fell into deep thought.
