Zhang Yan was actually not too busy in the following days.
In addition to spiritual practice and normal spiritual studies, he continued to teach the two little ones. This is why he took the two little boys with him. He just started to hit the road, and there were too many things to learn, especially about enlightenment.
In this regard, Zhang Yan must control the direction of the two children at all times, and cannot let them go astray when laying the foundation.
However, after returning to the imperial city, Yang Rui naturally had more free time. Zhang Yan was relieved to let Wang Nian follow Yang Rui everywhere. Apart from completing his schoolwork, the two children were hardly seen in the post house the rest of the time.
figure.
Zhang Yan did not ask specifically where Yang Rui took Wang Nian to, but sometimes Wang Nian would talk in his sleep when he was asleep and would always say, "This is delicious!" or "What a pity, I can't eat it anymore!"
I don’t know if this bastard went to rob the imperial dining room. He has only been here for less than half a month, and he has gained weight visibly to the naked eye. It used to be a pebble, but now it looks like it has developed into a cobblestone.
This morning, after class, Wang Nian and Yang Rui disappeared without a trace. Zhang Yan didn't think anything was wrong at first. But in the afternoon, before dinner time, Wang Nian came back dejected, and Zhang Yan felt strange.
Looking again, I saw Wang Nian's mouth was flattened, and his eyes were sparkling, as if they were filled with tears.
Zhang Yan immediately walked over and touched the other person's little head. This was the first time he saw this little stone showing such aggrieved expression.
"What's wrong?"
"Brother! I got into trouble and burned down someone's house."
Zhang Yan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then asked: "Where did it burn? Why did you burn someone else's house?"
"It's just in the courtyard of Xiaomu's house. Xiaomantou was bullied, and I went to help her find her place. Those people hid in the house and couldn't come out. Xiaomantou cried a lot, and I just wanted to vent her anger.
, as a result, I accidentally got out of control and set the house on fire. Finally, I tried to take them back, but I didn’t have the ability to take them back. The remaining ones burned bigger and bigger, woo woo woo, the house was burned down.
Only then did we put out the fire.”
"Burned people to death?"
"No. There were just a few relatives of Xiaomu's family inside. When they saw the fire started, they jumped out of the back window and ran away. They were not burned.
But brother, my family is so poor. I burned down such a big house and my father can’t afford to pay for it. What should I do?! Wow wow wow..."
For the first time, Zhang Yan saw Wang Nian crying loudly. He had never cried like this before, even when he was punished by Jin Huan. The amount of tears was unbelievable, and there were so many tears.
As he shook his head, he didn't know whether what came out was snot or tears. Zhang Yan quickly stepped back a few feet.
He secretly thought: This bastard was crying because he was worried that his family would not be able to pay compensation and felt that he had caused a big disaster. But the angle of fear was also different from ordinary people!
"Why did they let you come back after you got into trouble?" Zhang Yan was angry and funny. Following Wang Nian's words, he planned to clarify the matter first.
"They said no one was hurt, and that the matter was not urgent. They knew I had no money, so they should have let me come back to find my parents. Oh, brother, what should I do? What if my father finds out that I broke into
Such a big disaster will definitely make you mad to death."
No matter how arrogant the child is, it cannot change the nature of his youth. He will get confused when encountering things beyond his ability to judge.
"Don't cry. Yang Rui's family is very rich. It's just a house. How can I ask your family to compensate? Besides, you still have your second brother Zhang here. Do you need to cry?"
Okay, find a handkerchief and wipe your face."
Wang Nian's eyes widened when he heard this, and he obediently went to find a handkerchief to wipe away the snot and tears on his face. He didn't cry outside before, he held it in, and only cried when he came back and saw Zhang Yan.
"Brother, Xiaomu is my younger brother. He must be very rich with such a big yard. Are you really not going to let me lose money?"
"Yeah. I let you come back, and I still have to pay for it!" Zhang Yan shook his head and knocked on Wang Nian's forehead with a little force, and immediately knocked a small red envelope on Wang Nian's forehead. It hurt the little kid.
He was grinning but he really didn't cry anymore.
Then I heard Wang Nian talk about how he got into trouble.
These days, Yang Rui and Wang Nian basically play in the "Yang Rui family compound". This is easy to understand. After all, the palace is safer than outside, and it is big enough for two little kids to toss around.
.And the most important thing is that there are a lot of delicious food inside, and you don’t have to spend money. This is the main reason why Yang Rui invited Wang Nian to play.
If you play more often, you will meet some palace children. Some are princes like Yang Rui, some are princes who have come to the palace to study at Huanglin Academy. There are also some princesses.
However, most of these people don't have any close thoughts about Wang Nian. The main reason is that Wang Nian is too domineering and seems vulgar, which is not in line with the rules and regulations of the royal family.
In fact, if Yang Rui hadn't been thrown into a closed environment like the Miscellaneous Academy, it would have been difficult for him to play with Wang Nian. After all, there are often some inherent barriers between people.
But Wang Nian doesn't care. The nature of a naughty child is that you don't want to play with me, and I don't care about it.
Of course, Wang Nian also made a new friend in the palace. A little palace maid. She helped in the imperial kitchen, washing vegetables and doing some chores. Wang Nian met her by frequenting the imperial kitchen these days.
Wang Nian forgot to ask him his name, but because his face was particularly round and his skin was very white, he nicknamed him Little Mantou without permission.
Wang Nian got into trouble this time because Xiao Mantou was bullied by several princes and princes. They said that she followed Yang Rui because she wanted to climb up to the dragon and become a phoenix. She chased after Xiao Mantou, scolded and threw stones, and even tore Xiao Mantou's skirt.
His head was also bruised and bruised. Wang Nian, who later discovered Xiaomantou's injury, took action. He then chased directly to the Huanglin Courtyard and prepared to fight in. Yang Rui persuaded him to stop him.
But the two of them didn't just let it go. Instead, they ambush halfway. As a result, they actually caught the princes and princes who were making little buns.
Not to mention, Yang Rui is really not afraid of trouble. He has not even entered the threshold of a monk, and he is not a warrior. He just grabbed a stick and followed Wang Nian and dared to charge. In the end, he was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.
Say something.
When Wang Nian saw that Yang Rui had suffered a loss, he couldn't hold back. As soon as the fire technique came out, he drove the other boy's children into a side hall like ducks. As a result, because he was too excited, he couldn't control the fire.
He lost control of his skills and burned down the house, scaring himself so much.
Of course, the princes and princes who were almost burned to death in the side hall were even more frightened to the point of peeing.
The guards who came from behind frowned when they saw Wang Nian. They knew that this kid who was not from the royal family but could walk sideways in the palace was not easy to deal with. He reported it to the emperor, who laughed and let Wang Nian leave. It was just a side hall.
That's all, if you burn it, burn it. To maintain the relationship with Zhang Yan, what's the harm in burning a few more? He even thinks this is a good thing.
