Hearing Haitang say that Zhuge Yi took her to Jiangnan to visit a famous doctor to heal her injuries, Yuan Xu decided not to return to her home in Ciyu Town for the time being, and returned to Jiangnan with them.He still has some power in Jiangnan, firstly, to provide food, clothing, shelter and protection, and secondly, he has many friends who can help inquire about famous doctors who know how to treat injuries.After a short rest, the carriage procession flying the Yuan merchant flag continued to Ciyu Town under the leadership of Yuan Xu's most trusted treasurer.originally wanted to play in Bicaopo for two more days, but Li Haitang saw that Yuan Xu was going to escort them to Jiangnan, so he put away his playfulness and coaxed Zhuge Yi to change his mind and set off early.Zhuge Yi didn't want to change his mind, first, he saw that Begonia liked to chase and run on the grassland full of wildflowers, and second, Ling Ye had not sent anyone to send news so far.The green grass slope is not far from the Cold Night Valley, and it can be returned in three days on horseback.With Cheng Lan and Yuan Wuye protecting him, he can rest assured that he will hand over the begonias to them to take care of."
Master."
Meng An led a masked guard over, bowed to Zhuge Yi, and said, "The five big tents have been built, please move to the big tent and rest." ”"Arrange a big account for Yuan Wuye and Cheng Dagongzi."
Zhuge Yi bowed to Yuan Xu and pulled Begonia to the largest tent.Meng An twisted his eyebrows and looked at Haitang coldly, and said to the masked guard behind him, "Come in with me." ”"You don't have to come in."
Zhuge Yi lifted the curtain to let Begonia advance, and casually ordered to block Meng An's footsteps into the account.The masked guard cautiously glanced at Meng An, who had a gloomy face, quietly stepped into the tent, and stood by the door waiting to return.The large tent is spacious, separated by a simple screen, the inner and outer rooms.Zhuge Yi helped Haitang to the inner room to rest, returned to the outer room, sat down behind the long table and looked at the masked guard, and said coldly: "Take off the masked cloth." ”"Yes."
The guards complied, taking off the black cloth and revealing their true faces.It is Ling Ye's henchman guard, the guard commander who was once loyal to Zhuge Yi."
Say."
The one-word order frightened the guards tense, and they didn't dare to be silent for a moment.He was entangled in whether to tell him first, or to hand over Ling Ye's handwritten letter first."
If you have nothing to say, get out!"
Zhuge Yi's patience was limited, and the guard, who knew his temper, hurriedly handed over a letter and said, "Master Ling wrote the letter himself."
The Huajian Building in Porcelain Yu Town was burned, and the wordless son returned to Qingzhou safely; Qishan Town is haunted, and Qin Wuye has returned; A big businessman in Yanxia Town was harassed by Beijing officials, and asked Ling Ye to go back and mediate.The eight clans that had been dormant for many days saw that several masters had been defended one after another, and the eight clans led by Patriarch Mo, Second Master Li and Second Master Wu made a fuss again.Wu Sanye picked up Miss Wu from the Tang Mansion in Ping'an Alley, but he couldn't find out Wu Sanye's intentions. ”"Hmm."
It's good, everything is under his control.It can be seen that the old foxes of the eight major clans are reluctant to let go of the power and wealth in their hands, and I am afraid that the sons of the younger generation need to push behind them."
How is the Si Clan?"
Patriarch Si was the first to give way, I don't know if the new patriarch of Si Mingtang participated in the provocation of the eight major clans.The guard pondered for a moment and said, "The new patriarch of the Si clan announced on the second day after the master left that the whole clan would be rectified and the rules of the Si clan should be reestablished. ”Zhuge Yi secretly praised the wonder, Si Mingtang was really wise, and he deserved to be the brother they once admired.As the new patriarch, Si Mingtang will definitely sweep away all the henchmen in his father's hidden clan after succeeding to the throne and secretly cultivate his own henchmen.It's called rebuilding the clan rules, but in fact, it's just a clever name to find an excuse for life and death.In this way, the entire Si clan trembled for self-protection and reduced contact with the other seven clans.With their own strength, they will keep the whole clan living and working in peace and contentment.Si Mingtang's clever plan was really used properly, not only not to arouse the suspicion of the lords in power of the seven clans, but also to protect the entire Si clan from the matter."
Master, my subordinates have finished their confessions."
The guard lowered his head and whispered, cold sweat dripping behind his back.Since the little master was designed by the Wu patriarch and almost died in the sea of fire and dry wells in Beimin Alley, he was sent back to the dark pavilion by his master in anger to be punished, and he lost the qualification to accompany the master.Fortunately, Ling Ye saw that his kung fu was good and he was loyal, so he stayed by his side to send envoys, but he still wanted to stay by the side of his master and the little master as a guard.Zhuge Yi opened the envelope and pulled out a thin note: Loyal to you, I won't keep it.Glancing coldly at the silent guard, he asked, "You were sent to the Pavilion as a secret guard before?"
”"Yes.The subordinates are responsible for protecting the little master. ”The guard's heart was beating like thunder, and cold sweat oozed from his clenched fists.He suppressed a small desire, for fear of blurting out and angering his master.Zhuge Yi silently lit the letter on the candle and said, "You don't have to be a secret guard in the future." ”The guards panicked and knelt on the ground and begged: "Master, your subordinates are guilty!"
The subordinates are not effective in protecting the little master, so please ask the master to give the subordinates another chance.The subordinates are willing to smear their livers and brains, and protect the little master with their lives.Please, the master, give the subordinates a chance to atone for their sins, please, the master!
”"Listen to me."
Zhuge Yi scolded coldly, and the guards were immediately silenced."
Master, don't scare him."
Li Haitang, who was resting in the inner room, couldn't listen to it anymore.This familiar voice reminded her of a childish young man's face.It was one of the secret guards who protected her from escaping into the dry well when the Wu patriarch burned the alley of Beimin, and he was also one of the few surviving guards.Li Haitang bypassed the screen and came to sit next to Zhuge Yi, stared at the guards who were kneeling on the ground with apricot eyes gently, and said, "When you escorted me to escape into the dry well, more than a dozen guards died under the killer knife of the Wu patriarch.I felt guilty, and I didn't know how to make amends.Later, Brother Leng told me that a few people escaped from Beimin Alley alive, and I wanted to see you in my heart. ”"Little master, it was the poor protection of your subordinates that put you in danger and almost lost your life.The subordinates have always been angry that their skills are not as good as others, and they have failed to protect the little master. ”The guard kowtowed and wept, and the guilt and chagrin buried in his heart poured out like a flood the moment he saw the old master.At the beginning, he and a few guards who escaped alive returned to Yanxia Town to ask Ling Ye for help, and wanted to lead his companions back to Ciyu Town to rescue the little master, but he didn't expect Ling Ye and the master to receive the bad news that the little master was buried in the fire and dry well.The master was angry and sent them to the dark pavilion to be punished, and it was not until they walked out of the dark pavilion a month ago that they realized that the little master was not dead."
Since you don't forget the old master, you will follow Begonia as a guard in the future."
Zhuge Yi gave an order, and the guard straightened up in shock and looked at him in a daze."
Master?
Can subordinates stay with the little master?
”"Hehe, Master, look, he's so happy and stupid."
Li Haitang pulled Zhuge Yi's cold big hand, and made fun of the guards who were stunned.Zhuge Yi was lazy with the guards, doting on the little girl who stared at him.The slender index finger tapped the tip of her little nose and asked softly, "Are you happy with this gift?"
”"Of course."
Li Haitang smiled sweetly and hugged Zhuge Yi affectionately.She has always been grateful for the guards who once sacrificed their lives to protect her.When she returns to Ciyu Town after three years, these guards who are kind to her will definitely make up for it and find a good place for them to live safely for the rest of their lives.() Glory to the end
