The green fields stretch, and the sunset gradually turns orange in the foothills. On the hillside, several carriages are parked on the roadside not far away. There are people following them from far and near. Ning Yi and Su Tan'er are sitting on the grass slope.
Next, look at Xiaochan and Juaner Xing'er playing around Ning Xi over there.
"You...have thought it through?"
"Whether you think about it clearly or not, I don't want to put you here. I made plans beforehand and will come over after the performances in the two buildings."
"How about Yongping?"
"You should be ready for the exam."
"I... originally thought you wouldn't come so early. Because the secret report said that Gao Mu'en was looking for trouble."
"It's all a trivial matter. Mr. Ji from the prime minister's office helped to solve it. The remaining soldiers will cover it up with water and earth. It won't cause too much trouble."
"Who is Xiaopin?"
"ah?"
"I remember the first time we met Xiao Pin, the double heart character Luo Yi..."
The woman spoke every word, but Ning Yi's face was full of doubts, as if he had just thought of this at this moment.
"Um... Xiaopin refers to people?"
"ah?"
"I thought it was referring to something else. In the whole poem, I think these two sentences have the least artistic conception..."
"...Ms. sir, you are such a scoundrel."
"There really is no one named Xiaopin..."
The couple joked about this poem for a while. Su Tan'er squeezed Ning Yi's palm and did not say Li Pin's name, otherwise Ning Yi's face would probably turn green. After a while, Ning Yi finally mentioned Li Pin's name.
Jiang Ning’s affairs.
"I brought a few people here to stay in Kiyuan for a while. I can help you with some things. It's an experiment... When I go back to Jiangning, it's time to pay homage to my father-in-law. In fact, there may be one more thing when I go south this time.
The matter... was in the capital two days ago. Chen Fan came to see me."
"Chen Fan..." Su Tan'er naturally still remembered the name, so she repeated it. After a moment, she frowned, "He... at this time..."
"The matter of Fang Qifu." Ning Yi looked at the sunset in the distance and whispered. "He hopes that I can help..."
After saying this, he looked at the hesitant look on his wife's face. He shook his head and smiled: "Of course I can't help."
Su Tan'er's worried expression eased slightly. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, still frowning: "But...can I push it away? Do you...want to push it away?"
"It's not a question of whether to push it or not. I want to return the favor, but in this matter, whoever touches it almost dies. I told Chen Fan clearly about the background behind it, and Chen Fan can understand."
"But...my husband, you still plan to do something, right?"
Su Tan'er stared at him, and Ning Yi sighed. He put his arm around her shoulders: "I hope...even if things don't work out, they can at least save one life, Chen Fan, and the one who came this time...Liu Xigua
.I won’t consider meeting them. Fang Baihua and his gang may not want to see me, and I don’t intend to have any contact with them. Maybe at most... let’s see if it’s possible to meet Fang Qifu. If so,
By doing this, I will be fully benevolent and righteous."
He looked at the child who was clapping his hands and screaming not far away, and paused: "This family is half yours, so I want you to know this... We have a child now, and I won't mess around.
"
"I don't want to... stop you from repaying the favor. If it were me, I would pay it back... But for such a big thing, I will always be a little worried." Su Tan'er leaned on Ning Yi's shoulder and forced a smile. On these matters,
A woman always thinks more than a man, but after a while, she calmed down: "Besides trying to persuade them to retreat, is there anything else I can do?"
"There are some accounts over there in the south of the Yangtze River that may be worth making a fuss about. I don't know the specific situation, but I can inform Chen Fan and they will know." Ning Yi told his wife about the accounts and the rumors about the treasure left by Fang La.
"These accounts cannot lead to a conviction now, but for many things, there is no need to go to court to litigate. If the people behind the scenes are direct relatives of Fang La, Chen Fan and the others can find ways to find the accounts, and there will always be some room for maneuver."
Su Tan'er nodded.
Soon after, the setting sun burned out its afterglow in the foothills, and night fell. Torches were lit beside the carriage, and a few rays of light slowly traveled from the hillside to the small county town not far away, and then merged with the sparse lights in the county town.
Due to the arrival of Ning Yi and others, it is no longer difficult to arrange housing in the small courtyard. Tan'er arranged the female family members in the courtyard, while she and Ning Yi stayed in an inn in the county. The couple reunited, and always
There is much to say and much to do, but these things cannot be explained to outsiders.
In the same night, the foothills hundreds of miles away from Kihara to the south were also lit with little lights. This area was not a barren area, with large and small towns and villages scattered among the rolling foothills and hills.
, rivers intersect through it. Many villages are relatively wealthy. Recently, due to the news of Fangla's remnant bandits, the security of the surrounding villages and towns has become a little tighter, and people from all walks of life have become more diligent in checking the green forests.
But after all, it is a fairly peaceful area on weekdays. Even so, the surrounding environment is not as tense as in Shandong. For ordinary people, they may not be able to notice the changes in the atmosphere in the living area.
Located near a mansion at the foot of a remote mountain, the dusty Chen Fan, led by his original rebel companions, passed through several hidden sentries before meeting Fang Baihua, who looked tired due to injuries but still had a sharp look in his eyes. The two of them did not
After talking too much, after a few greetings, Fang Baihua looked at him, Chen Fan shook his head, and the middle-aged woman nodded indifferently. For her, such a result was originally expected.
She had heard some things about Ning Yi, and she had also met people before. It was one thing for Chen Fan, Xigua and others to be entangled with him, but if the other party could solve the matter involving Fang Qifu, then it would not be a problem.
It was too much to talk about Ning Yi. But at this moment, she didn't want to pursue anything about Ning Yi's original matter. It was meaningless.
"...I went to inquire about this matter about the master. The people involved in this matter have very simple backgrounds. The first person who wants the master's life is Wang Fu, and then there are several big families in the capital and various places, namely..."
Chen Fan whispered about this, but Fang Baihua gently raised his hand to interrupt him: "I know."
"Then what's going on now..." Chen Fan himself could die to save Fang Qifu, but he didn't want too many people to be buried with him. However, it was difficult to speak out his words, his lips were moving, and his eyes were
There was also a trace of blood red. Fang Baihua looked at him and shook her head.
"Chen Fan. Your master... actually doesn't want you to get involved in this kind of thing. You are right to think so. If you take people away at this time, no one will blame you..."
Chen Fan stared at her.
Although he is a disciple of Fang Qifu, in the past, there was a distinction between superior and inferior in Fang La's army. Chen Fan did not hold a very important position, and his relationship with Fang Baihua was not as close as that of Liu Xigua. Therefore, Fang
Baihua's eyes looked cold at this time. She was putting her own life and death aside, and she didn't need anyone to understand her indifference.
"You go down and meet Xigua. These days, she has a bit of a temper. You young people, please be more talkative. There is no need to mention other things."
Chen Fan nodded and then left.
During the recent period, Xigua was facing the enemy who killed her father. On the other hand, her companions may not understand the Ba Dao camp that left Hangzhou when the city was destroyed. There was a reason for her temper. Chen Fan found her.
At that time, she was sitting in a daze on a big rock on the hillside outside the village courtyard, holding her big knife in her arms. Seeing Chen Fan coming, her eyes moved slightly, but then they became colder.
"I saw him." Chen Fan said, "But there's nothing he can do."
Xigua's eyes moved at first, but then returned to being cold again. Chen Fan said: "He can't come to see you, but he hopes you can take the overall situation into consideration and leave here."
The girl holding the giant blade tilted her head. She looked sideways at the moonlight in the sky. After a moment, she said, "He knows he can't persuade me even if he comes here."
"He asked me to bring you a letter." Chen Fan took out a letter from his arms. He originally wanted to hand it to the girl, but looking at the other girl's expression, he finally just put it on the stone next to her. In fact,
Neither of them may feel good about the current situation. Chen Fan went to Beijing to look for Ning Yi with hope. After returning, he had to tell Fang Baihua, Xigua and others to leave. And Chen Fan went to Beijing to find Ning Yi. Xigua's heart
Perhaps there was a trace of expectation, but there was nothing she could do at this time. Although she was mentally prepared, her mood was of course sad and disappointing.
After Chen Fan left, the girl sat there, ignoring the letter next to her. She held the big knife and put her cheek against the handle. Until the mountain wind started and the letter was about to be blown away, she
Just caught it easily.
The moonlight above the mountainside was clear, but such light could not be used to read letters. The girl sat for a while, put the big knife behind her back, and walked towards a small house not far away from the manor. Over the past few days, the rescuer Fang Qi
Many of the people in the Buddha didn't want to see her, and she didn't want to see those people either. Today, when Fang Baihua used her power to place those people in the manor, she didn't bother to go there at all, and only chose to live nearby with Du Sha and others.
She walked to the door of the shabby little room, inserted a half-burned torch, and lit it. She sat casually on the ground under the eaves with a big knife in her hand. When she took out the letter from the envelope, the paper was densely packed with words.
This made her feel a little angry.
She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. Although she is also literate, her writing skills are actually not good enough. Sometimes she gets a headache when reading some elegant letters from scholars. Ning Yi’s writing skills are very high. She writes such an article to show off, but she can’t read it.
I understand, so what’s the point? However, after reading a few sentences, such emotions disappeared without a trace.
"Agua, words are like faces. It's been almost a year since we parted ways in the south. I don't know what the family around you has become now, and I don't know if you are still as willful as before... I am very sad.
I want to come over to see you, but circumstances don’t allow it..."
The title at the beginning of the article was one she disliked very much before, but her displeasure only arose for a moment, because the following sentences were all that she could easily understand, and were even weird vernacular texts that she had never seen before.
. Under the firelight, holding a big knife, the girl who looked a little thin raised her lips slightly, and then smiled unconsciously, because through the paper, she seemed to see the man she broke up with last year. He
Over there, he talked to her casually and gently. This feeling made her feel a warmth that she had not felt for many days. She followed the paper and kept reading... y
