It turned out that Zhao Jinping was not taking classes with those little kids. I finally felt relieved.

I said, "In that case, you can study here with peace of mind. When it's time for bathing, we will pick you up and take you home. I will let Yiping prepare delicious food for you."

"Go home? Which home? The General's Mansion? I won't go back to that home. I'd rather go back to the Grand Tutor's Mansion." Jinping immediately refused.

Yiping pulled Jinping to the front of the carriage and said, "Look, brother, this is our carriage. We have our own carriage now."

Zhao Jinping looked at the tall horse with his eyes shining with joy. He said, "I have long wanted to try the feeling of riding a horse at full speed. This horse is really majestic. I really like it."

Wei Chang said slowly: "This horse is old and only suitable for pulling a cart, not for galloping."

Wei Chang's words were like a bucket of cold water, which immediately extinguished the fire in Jinping's heart.

Jinping's hand, which was about to touch the horse's head, just stayed in mid-air, neither going up nor down.

Then Wei Chang said: "But Ah Man has a horse that can fly at high speed, and it can also travel a thousand miles a day."

When Zhao Jinping heard this, the dead ashes in his eyes rekindled. He rushed to me with sparkling eyes and said loudly: "Aman, go home, go home quickly, let me see your BMW."

I was so confused. It turned out that men are born to be fanatics of "cars and horses".

I said angrily, "Didn't you say I can't go home without Mu? Why are you going back? Hurry up and go in and study hard."

I waved to Ankang, and Ankang quickly came over with two food boxes and handed them to Jinping.

Jinping took it and asked, "What's in it?"

Yi Ping said happily: "Today we went to Wangyue Tower for dinner, and we packed food for you. Isn't that good enough for you?"

Jinping's eyes widened and he said angrily, "How dare you say that when you go to Wangyue Tower to eat without inviting me along?"

I pushed Jinping and said, "Let's go in quickly. It's getting dark. We have to go back."

Jinping glanced at the sky, then looked at me and said, "Ah Man, I actually like you more when you're chubby. You're round and cute."

I pretended to be angry and said, "I have finally lost weight, so don't curse me for getting fat. Go in quickly and study hard, don't embarrass Lord Gongsun."

Jinping reluctantly carried the two food boxes and turned back to shout as he walked, "When I get off work, you must take me horseback riding."

I waved at him and said, "Got it."

Only then did Jinping reluctantly walk into the school gate.

Unlike colleges, schools generally do not allow students to stay overnight. The reason why Jinping was able to live in the school was probably due to Gongsun Wen's efforts.

Although Gongsun Wen has a sharp tongue, he is very practical in his actions.

After Jinping went in, we all got on the carriage and swayed back.

It gets dark early in winter, and lanterns are hung on the doors of many houses.

Yiping knew that I was afraid of the dark, so he sat close to me and said a few words from time to time to reassure me.

There was no charcoal basin on the carriage. After the sun went down, the biting cold attacked me from all directions, and my body felt like it was being pricked by needles.

I hugged my body tightly and was shaking violently.

Yiping thought I was shaking because of fear, so he held my hand and said, "We'll be home soon, just bear with it for a while, or close your eyes and lean on the soft pillow, you'll be fine in a while."

I said "hmm" and didn't say anything because I couldn't speak. My teeth were clenched tightly, and I was afraid that I would bite my tongue if I opened my mouth.

The carriage was moving slowly when it suddenly shook, followed by a long shout from Wei Chang. Our horses were abruptly stopped, and Yi Ping and I were knocked headfirst into the carriage, causing us to see stars and go black.

Before we could come to our senses, we heard Wei Chang shouting, "Ankang, protect Ah Man."

Then there was a series of "clang-clang" sounds of weapons colliding.

Soon, Ankang lifted the curtain and shouted, "Second Master, Third Miss, there is an assassin."

As soon as Ankang finished speaking, a masked man in black appeared behind him, swinging a sword and trying to stab him in the back.

My actions were faster than my brain's reaction. I grabbed the teapot on the coffee table and threw it at the man in black.

I threw the teapot quite accurately. It hit the man in black right on his forehead. There was a loud bang and a scream. The man in black took several steps back, covering his forehead.

Only then did Ankang realize that he almost lost his life here.

Ankang pulled out a long stick from under the carriage with shaking hands, turned around, looked around in horror, and said in a trembling voice: "Second Master, Third Miss, don't be afraid, Ankang will protect you."

Most people would hide some weapons under the carriage in case of emergency. We also hid knives, sticks and other things under our carriage. We didn't expect that they would really come in handy.

I said to Yiping, "Sit still and don't move. I'll go out and take a look."

Yiping grabbed me and shook his head desperately while crying.

I knew she was terrified, so I wiped her tears and said, "Don't be afraid, I will never leave you alone."

Yiping still refused to let go, so I had to cruelly pull her hands off and jump off the carriage.

Ankang was staring at his surroundings intently when I suddenly jumped down from behind him, giving him a big scare.

Ankang saw that it was me and almost cried. He stuttered and asked, "Second Master, why did you come down here?"

I quickly pulled out a knife from under the car, swung it a few times, and found it was quite handy. Then I whispered, "I'm worried about you being here alone. I want to fight alongside you."

Ankang was indeed terrified. His whole body was shaking, and his legs were shaking so much that he could hardly stand. He said with a stammer, "Thank you, thank you, Second Young Master."

The fighting in front of the carriage was very fierce, with constant "ding-dang-dang" sounds and occasional screams. It seemed that the situation was not optimistic.

But Ankang and I didn't dare to leave the carriage. Firstly, we were afraid that someone would attack Yiping by surprise. Secondly, we were afraid that if we went there we would not be able to help and would cause more trouble, and then the three of us would die faster.

Although I was not afraid, my physical condition was damaged and I was very sensitive to cold. It was much colder outside than in the carriage, and the cold wind blew so hard that I almost froze to death.

I was shaking even more violently than Ankang, my teeth were chattering, and I could hardly hold the sword.

Ankang saw me shaking like that and thought I was scared. He held the stick in one hand and stretched out his other hand to hold the hand that was not holding the knife in his palm and said, "Don't be afraid, Second Young Master. Ankang will protect you."

Ankang's hands were rough but generous. A warmth came from his hands, driving away the chill in my heart. I said with trembling lips, "Thank you, thank you."

At this moment, suddenly a man in black was knocked onto the carriage with a "bang" sound, and then with a "pop" sound, the man in black fell to the ground.

The man in black who fell to the ground was not dead. He actually jumped up. When he looked up, he saw Ankang and me. Without saying a word, he swung his sword and slashed at us!
