The Empress traveled through time and space, and she fought for supremacy in the troubled times

After talking about his encounter with Yun Youde, Zhou Yifeng stopped talking.

In an instant, the room fell into a brief silence.

Zhou Yifeng, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, looked up at Yun Zhi and said slowly, "You know what happened next. In order to buy that sword, I became your Yun Mansion's martial arts teacher."

Afterwards, he fled with the Yun family, established the Yun Family Village, and rushed down from the deep mountains.

"This is my past. Even if I didn't tell you, you should have guessed it over the years."

He gently stroked the patterns on the sword. This sword had been with him for several years. Just a while ago, Yun Youde had reforged it for him.

"After all, I killed so many people. I don't know how many of them survived by chance, but it's certain that there will be hatred."

As if he had made some kind of decision, his eyes were full of determination as he looked straight into Yun Zhi's eyes.

"My lord has no use for me now. Staying here would only bring trouble. After I escort you back safely, I will leave on my own."

Do you really want to leave?

Zhou Yifeng asked himself, he didn't think so. Humans are social animals, and they will develop feelings over time.

Yun Youde and Lin Huixin have always treated him well, even considering him as their own family member. He also felt the long-lost warmth of family love from them.

Yun Jingxian always respected him and always looked at him with a bit of admiration.

There are also those who he had taught in Yunjiazhai, who would carefully prepare a gift for him every New Year.

Even though he was still alone, he no longer felt lonely.

As for Yun Zhi, she was not like the previous poster. At least she really treated him as a human being.

"It's getting late, so I won't disturb you from resting. We have to set off early tomorrow morning."

Zhou Yifeng stood up from the ground and was about to step out of the room when Yun Zhi's voice came from behind him.

"Mr. Zhou."

Ever since Yun Zhi started calling himself Lord, he rarely addressed him that way, after all, he had to establish his authority.

He turned around and waited for her words.

At this moment, a sharp cold wind blew in from the window, and the candles on the table swayed left and right because of the wind.

"Do you think I'm afraid of your enemies?"

Zhou Yifeng shook his head slightly and said, "No."

"You've sacrificed so much for my Yun family. How could I abandon you? Although I, Yun Zhi, am not a good person, I would never do such a thing. Besides, I promised to take you to see the peaceful sea and the tranquil rivers, and I will definitely take you to see it."

The wind stopped and the candle stopped swinging.

Zhou Yifeng clenched his hands at his sides, then loosened them. At this moment, his heart no longer wavered, "Yes."

"It's getting late, so I won't disturb you from resting. We have to set off early tomorrow morning."

The same words, but the mood is completely different.

The next morning.

When getting on the carriage, Chen Yuanshu stared at Zhou Yifeng for several times.

Although he still had a stern face and his expression could not be seen, he gave people the feeling that he had unburdened himself and looked very relaxed and happy.

Perhaps because she had been staring at him for too long, he turned his head to look at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Yuanshu shook his head and said, "Nothing, I just hope Mr. Zhou can always be happy."

Is it so obvious?

The hand holding the reins tightened involuntarily.

After Yun Zhi and the others got on the carriage, he jumped on the horse and drove the carriage towards the next place.

……

On the street, a ragged, skinny little boy, about eleven or twelve years old, was carrying a girl who was younger than him on his back.

"Sister, don't be afraid. I will definitely cure your illness. Don't be afraid."

Li Erniu, the little girl lying on him, responded weakly when she heard her brother's words.

At this moment, she didn't even have the strength to cough, and just wanted to have a good sleep.

But she was also afraid that once she fell asleep, she would never be able to open her eyes again, just like her mother.

Li Shitou looked at the road under his feet and walked step by step, with the noisy sounds of hawking in his ears.

Now, there are only two siblings left in the family.

My father died during the forced labor in the cultivation palace.

In order to support them, A Niang embroidered day and night and damaged her eyes.

Two months ago, the man accidentally fell and hit his head, and left them.

My sister started coughing incessantly half a month ago. I originally thought it was just a minor cold that would go away if I endured it, but now it has become more serious.

Along the way, he kept calling his sister, fearing that she would fall asleep.

Arrived at the door of a clinic.

He looked up at the plaque above. This was the largest medical clinic in the county. He heard that Doctor Zhao was a skilled doctor with a kind heart.

He took a deep breath and walked steadily into the clinic with his sister on his back. "Doctor Zhao, please help my sister with her illness."

Hearing the sound, the person lying on the chair sat up and looked at the brother and sister, "What is this?"

"My sister is sick. She's been coughing more and more these days and has no strength left. Could you please take a look at her?"

Doctor Zhao pulled out a chair and said, "Put your sister down so I can take a look."

"Hey, good."

Li Shitou carefully put his sister down and held her hand tightly. "Sister, it's okay. You'll be fine after seeing a doctor and taking medicine."

"Ah."

Looking at his sister who had no strength to speak, he gently touched her head and said, "Sister, you will definitely get better."

Doctor Zhao looked at the little girl who was put down, and the expression on his face froze instantly.

He placed his hand on the little girl's thin and slender wrist, confirming his suspicions.

"Hey."

Hearing this sigh, Li Shitou raised his head nervously, "Doctor Zhao, what happened to my sister?"

"You should have sent it here earlier. Where are your parents?"

"Our parents are gone."

Looking at the poor brother and sister in front of him, Doctor Zhao sighed again.

What kind of world is this!

"It's tuberculosis. It's a very difficult disease to treat. Not only is it difficult to treat, but it also costs a lot of money."

Li Shitou didn't know much about tuberculosis, but he understood that money was needed.

He took out the dozen or so copper coins that A Niang had left behind and placed them in his palm. "Doctor Zhao, I have money. Please save my sister."

Looking at the dozen coins in the thin hand, Doctor Zhao shook his head and said, "Not enough."

"Well...how much does it cost? I'll find a way."

"This disease will cost at least two taels of silver."

Hearing this amount, Li Shitou murmured, "Two taels of silver?"

With only two taels of silver, A Niang could only earn ten or twenty cents from selling embroidery every day.

Even if he sold it, he might not be able to raise the two taels of silver.

"Hey, if it's just some minor illness, I can give you some patches, but your illness costs too much."

Li Erniu, who was lying on the chair, was also shocked by the number. Although she was only five years old, she knew that this was not something their family could afford.

She gently scratched the palm of his hand and said, "Brother, I can't be cured. Let's go back. I want to go home."

In the end, Li Shitou didn't know how he carried his sister on his back and how he walked out of the clinic.

When he came to his senses, he was already on his way home.

Looking at the young man in gorgeous clothes passing by him, an idea came to his mind.

He could never let his only sister leave him again.

He carried his sister back home, patted her head, and said, "Sister, can you wait for your brother? You can't sleep. You must wait for your brother to come back, understand?"

"Well, what are you going to do, brother?"

"Brother, go buy some buns for your sister."

"Okay, I'll wait for my brother."

Looking at his sister who was trying hard not to fall asleep, Li Shitou stood up and walked outside resolutely.
