The prince is not doing his job [traveling]

Xiao Yanzhi followed closely behind Xiao Chunyue all the way, but there were too many passers-by blocking the way in the corridor of Lefang. When Xiao Yanzhi chased to the door of Xiao Chunyue's room, Xiao Chunyue just closed the door and dropped the latch. The door leaf almost slammed into Xiao Yanzhi's face.

Xiao Yanzhi sighed helplessly, raised his hand and gently knocked on the door: "Sister Chunyue, at least listen to my explanation."

After hearing it, it doesn't matter if you don't forgive him, at least leave this place with him!

In the room, Xiao Chunyue stood with her back against the door, choked up and said: "I have heard too many explanations from men, so you don't need to waste your time, it has nothing to do with me whether you are the king of Shu or the prince, I won't look for it." You are in trouble."

Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm not afraid that you will cause trouble for me... Sis, can you open the door first? There are people outside here, and they look at me as if I have lost my mind. It is estimated that someone should be found to arrest me soon."

Liu Hanqing, who was negotiating with the madam, turned her head and gave Xiao Yan a playful look when she heard this, and then turned back to continue negotiating with the madam.

With He Yan and Zhang Shaosheng guarding the side like gods, the people around them don't even dare to look at Yanzhi, not to mention getting close to him. , for fear of having a face-to-face meeting with the King of Shu in the music workshop.

It would be a bargain if they could have fun with the king of Shu, but if they encountered a scene that they shouldn't have encountered and were hated by the king of Shu, then they would be unlucky for eight lifetimes!

Ignoring Liu Hanqing's banter, Xiao Yanzhi put one hand on the door of Xiao Chunyue's room, feeling helpless to Xiao Chunyue who had left the door and resolutely kept silent.

After taking out the identity of the King of Shu and coercing and luring the madam of Lefang, Liu Hanqing finally redeemed Xiao Chunyue at a reasonable price, but they couldn't take her away if Xiao Chunyue didn't come out.

Staring at the closed door, Liu Hanqing came up with a bad idea and said, "In other words, I think it's better to let He Yan and Zhang Shaosheng kick the door open, and let's take him away first? Otherwise, you might just stand there It doesn't seem very good to coax a... um... right?"

"It's not good to rob people's daughters by force." Xiao Yanzhi gave Liu Hanqing a white look.

Liu Hanqing rubbed her nose and said in a low voice, "She's not a commoner girl..."

"What did you say?" Xiao Yanzhi with sharp ears immediately turned his head and glared at Liu Hanqing viciously.

Liu Hanqing hurriedly raised her hand as a gesture of surrender.

Zhang Shaosheng finally understood what he heard, hesitated for a while, and then leaned over and asked: "The one inside is Chunyue?"

Didn't Chunyue go to a rich man's house to be a concubine?How could it be in the music workshop in Chang'an City?

Seeing Zhang Shaosheng at this time, Xiao Yanzhi's eyes lit up immediately, and after pulling Zhang Shaosheng to the door, he said to Xiao Chunyue in the room: "Sister Chunyue, brother Shaosheng next door is also here, do you want to talk to Shaosheng?" Brother talk?"

There was still no sound in the room.

Xiao Yanzhi was speechless, stared at Zhang Shaosheng and said, "Why doesn't Sister Chunyue even see you?"

Zhang Shaosheng said innocently: "Is it my fault? I don't know Chunyue very well."

His deepest memory of Xiao Chunyue is at the age when Xiao Yanzhi loved to run around, Xiao Chunyue would run around the village every day looking for Xiao Yanzhi.

"Why are you unfamiliar with Sister Chunyue? Don't you often talk together?" Xiao Yanzhi still stared at Zhang Shaosheng.

Zhang Shaosheng said: "Isn't that all because of you? Because you play around behind us all day, Chunyue always wants to talk to us boys."

Is there still this stubble?Xiao Yanzhi was speechless.

Liu Hanqing curled her lips and said, "Don't blame others casually, what should you do now? Are you really going to wait here for her to come out on her own initiative?"

Staring at the door again, Xiao Yanzhi said: "Wait!"

Thinking about it now, Xiao Chunyue's life in the Chen family was probably not easy. No matter whether it was in the Chen family or in this music workshop, she must have been waiting day and night for someone to rescue her, and the wait lasted for more than ten years. , Wait until discouraged, wait until the end of the road, wait until you have to accept your fate.

And he once gave up the chance to save Xiao Chunyue so simply, he really regretted it, even if he secretly went back to the Chen Mansion to confirm it again, as long as he went back again, he would know what Xiao Chunyue said to him Everything was a lie, as long as he went back again, he could find a way to rescue Xiao Chunyue, but he didn't, he never went back...

Xiao Chunyue has suffered for them for more than ten years, and now she just wants to wait here for Xiao Chunyue to give him a chance, why can't he wait?

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yanzhi said to Zhang Shaosheng: "Shaosheng, go back to Prince Wucheng's Mansion and tell Pei Ze that I will not go back to Prince Wucheng's Mansion tonight. If Sister Chunyue doesn't come out, then I will stay here." Wait, if Sister Chunyue is willing to follow me, I will take her to Shu Palace first."

He can't always send the Xiao family to Pei Ze.

"There is also Hanqing," Xiao Yanzhi turned to look at Liu Hanqing again, "Thank you for this matter, I owe you a favor. You should go back first, if I don't have time to see Junmeng and the others these days , you can take care of me more, and when Sister Chunyue settles down, I will take Sister Chunyue to meet them. If possible, help me find out about the Chen family, whose ancestral home is Jiangnan Xizhou."

"Can you do it alone?" Liu Hanqing looked at Xiao Yanzhi very worriedly.

Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said, "I have to pay off the debts I owe. Don't worry, Sister Chunyue loves me very much."

Liu Hanqing looked at Xiao Yanzhi suspiciously, and seeing Xiao Yan's firm face, Liu Hanqing nodded, telling Xiao Yanzhi not to worry about the situation of Junmeng and the other three, and then went out with Zhang Shaosheng.

Xiao Chunyue inside the door was still silent, Xiao Yanzhi couldn't think of a way for the time being, so he could only turn around and sit at Xiao Chunyue's door.

And although Xiao Chunyue in the room walked away from the door, she just walked to the side table and sat down. As long as the people outside the door did not deliberately lower their voices, she could hear what they said clearly, and she could also see Xiao Chunyue. Yanzhi's back sitting leaning against the door, but Xiao Chunyue didn't know what to do with her.

When Xiao Yanzhi's mother and son came to the house, she was actually very happy.Her biological mother died because of dystocia, and she and her father were the only ones in the family. In order to support her, his father had to farm and hunt, go out before dawn, and return home at night. She almost always lives alone, and suddenly there is a gentle stepmother and a cute younger brother in the family, she is very happy.

But the stepmother is weak, so she can barely help her father with some light farm work. Although the younger brother is smart, he can't help much because he is young. In fact, she has long expected that she will be sold, because the older sisters in the village are all In this way, they can’t get married, so they can be sold to wealthy people as concubines, or sold to traffickers and then sold into music workshops. They can only sell themselves, so that they can get more money to support the people in the village. Family, she is already lucky if someone can fancy her and buy her as a concubine.

But the life in the back house of a rich family is not as simple as she imagined. Her man loves and spoils her, but her man's wife can't tolerate her.Later she realized that the more her man loves and spoils her, the more his wife can't tolerate her, but by then it was too late, she had already been sent out of Xizhou by the person arranged by the wife, who took her It was sold to a music workshop in Suzhou.

She stayed in the Lefang in Suzhou for three years, and except for the three escapes in the first six months, she never thought of leaving there, not only because the punishment after being caught back was so painful, but also because she suddenly found that she was helpless. There are places to go.She can't go back to Chen's house, because Mrs. Chen's family can't tolerate her, and she can't go back to her own home, because the family can't afford to support her, she can't go anywhere, why leave the only place where she can live in peace?

Three years later, the owner of the music workshop wanted to go north to Chang'an, and the Suzhou music workshop was sold to someone else. However, the owner was afraid that no one would be able to hold up the table when he opened the music workshop in Chang'an, so he selected [-] from the music workshop. Personally, seven of them died due to various accidents on the way to the north. She was lucky enough to survive, and then she settled down in Chang'an with her master. After a certain age, she will be able to retreat behind the scenes and be a master to newcomers. After a few more years, she may be able to become a madam or something.

Her future has almost been planned in a broken jar, why did she meet Xiao Yanzhi again?

She knew the king of Shu who was loved by the emperor. There were a few regulars in this music workshop who were officials appointed by the imperial court. The eldest son left by the emperor among the people is not only the eldest son of the emperor, but also the only son of the emperor. They say that the king of Shu has great talents and general plans. Although he is not mature yet, he will become the best heir when he becomes more stable in a few years... …

But such a man turned out to be her younger brother who loves to roll in the mud?Her brother is a prince?A prince who survived only with the money she sold herself?What a joke!Since they are the prince's son, why don't their mother and son stay with the emperor?Even if they were separated from the emperor, why didn't they come to Chang'an to find the emperor?Why did they want to live in her home?

If they didn't come, she would still live a life dependent on her father. If they didn't come, then she wouldn't have to be sold. If they didn't come, how could she be in this situation?

But while Xiao Chunyue was complaining and cursing in her heart, she remembered that ten-year-old boy who walked from the village to Xizhou under the sun. Two buns were tied with a rope, and a pair of straw sandals were worn out from walking for too long. Although he was in a mess, the little boy had bright eyes when he saw her, and he smiled and asked her how she was doing.

"Sister Chunyue, don't cry."

Xiao Yanzhi's voice suddenly came out from outside the door, Xiao Chunyue was startled, she raised her hand to wipe her face, she wiped her tears as expected.

Xiao Yanzhi outside the door said again: "Sister Chunyue, it's too boring for me to sit by the door alone, please chat with me."

Xiao Chunyue took a deep breath, suppressed the surging emotions, and then said: "Please don't sit at the door of Nuer's room, the King of Shu, and delay the business of the slave, will the King of Shu compensate you?"

Xiao Yanzhi replied calmly: "Just now I have redeemed you, and the money has been given to the madam."

"What did you say?!" Xiao Chunyue stood up abruptly, walked to the door in three steps at a time, pulled the latch and opened the door suddenly.

How much would it cost to redeem her body? !Is Xiao Yanzhi crazy? !

Xiao Yanzhi heard the sound of approaching footsteps, but he didn't expect Xiao Chunyue's movements to be so fast. The door behind him was pulled open without warning, and Xiao Yanzhi, who was leaning on the door, fell back and fell. He fell to the ground with his waist still on the threshold.

Xiao Chunyue took a step back in fright, and stared blankly at Xiao Yanzhi.

Xiao Yanzhi arched his body wittily, and said with a painful face: "It hurts, it hurts! It seems to hurt my waist, it hurts so much!"

"My lord!" He Yan immediately ran to Xiao Yanzhi and squatted down, "My lord, are you alright?"

"Do you think I'm okay?" Xiao Yanzhi glared at He Yan, "It hurts so much, I can't move!"

He Yan immediately supported Xiao Yanzhi, and said: "This subordinate has offended you, please be patient for a moment, this subordinate will send you back to the residence."

"I can't go back, I can't go back!" Xiao Yanzhi cried out in pain, "I can't go that far. Quick, find me a nearby place to lie down."

He Yan didn't know if he was too obedient or if he heard Xiao Yanzhi's implication. After looking around, he carried Xiao Yanzhi into Xiao Chunyue's room without even asking Xiao Chunyue.

Xiao Chunyue was also terrified by this situation, she didn't react for a while, so she let Xiao Yanzhi enter the room, and followed behind with a nervous expression on her face.

"My lord, what do you think?" After putting Xiao Yanzhi on the bed, He Yan pressed Xiao Yanzhi's waist, first to check if there was any broken bone in Xiao Yanzhi's waist.

Xiao Yanzhi suppressed a smile and said, "Well... As expected, it's still comfortable to lie on the bed, and the wooden planks on the floor hurt my butt."

Hearing this, Xiao Chunyue was stunned, not knowing what Xiao Yanzhi meant, but He Yan understood Xiao Yanzhi's meaning after a moment of stupefaction.

"Then please continue to lie down comfortably, your subordinate is at the door." After saying that, He Yan turned around and strode out the door, and closed the door intimately.

Xiao Yanzhi sat up from the bed and looked at Xiao Chunyue with a smile: "Scared my sister?"

It was only now that Xiao Chunyue finally understood, she angrily reprimanded Xiao Yanzhi with her eyes wide open, "You lied!"

Xiao Yanzhi hastily stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Chunyue's hand, and said: "I was wrong, I was wrong, sister, don't be angry. But sister won't see me, and won't listen to my explanation, so I can only do this."

"The majestic king of Shu acted like a rascal, are you ashamed?!" Xiao Chunyue struggled, but failed to break free from Xiao Yanzhi's hand.

Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said: "It's okay, Jun Meng often said that I don't look like a prince, and I look like a rascal. Oh, by the way, Jun Meng is the youngest sister in the family, but this year is going to be fifteen, should I old age to marry."

"What the lord said has nothing to do with me?" Unable to break free from Xiao Yanzhi's hand, Xiao Chunyue stood by the bed with a cold face, without even looking at Xiao Yan.

"How can you have nothing to do with your sister?" Xiao Yanzhi smiled, "Jun Meng is the daughter of her adoptive father and mother, and she is also half related to her sister by blood. There are also two younger brothers, the eldest brother is named Xiao Ren'an, Nineteen this year, the second younger brother is named Xiao Xiangsheng, eighteen this year."

"Since I left the Xiao family, everything in the Xiao family has nothing to do with me."

Xiao Yanzhi looked up at Xiao Junmeng, smiled and said, "Sister Chunyue, come home with me. Back then, my mother took me to escape to the village. It was my adoptive father and sister who saved our mother and son's lives. Nianghui chose to be with her adoptive father because she heard the news of his father's death. Although it was a misunderstanding, our mother and son have caused my sister to suffer for half of her life. I cannot shirk this responsibility. Although it is a bit late, but ...I'm here to take you home."

Hearing the last sentence, Xiao Chunyue finally couldn't hold back anymore, lay down beside the bed and began to cry loudly, responding to the sudden sound of heavy rain outside the window, it sounded extremely heartbreaking.

There have been so many days and nights when she wanted to go home and she was crazy. In her dreams, her father came to pick her up, but every time she woke up, it was nothing. Why did she only hear this sentence now? ?

Xiao Yanzhi was still sitting on the bed, holding Xiao Chunyue's hand tightly, and said softly: "Before, it was my adoptive father and sister who gave me a home. Now it's my turn to give my sister a home. Although there are no parents or elders in the family, there are Two sensible younger brothers and a lovely younger sister. The prospective sister-in-law is also in Chang'an City. My sister, you met just now, is the boy who came with me. Although the boy is as glib as I am, he is much older. , but he is sincere to Junmeng.

If my sister wants to live in the Shu Palace, I will arrange for her to live in the Shu Palace. There are a lot of people serving my sister there. Let them make you whatever you want to eat, and let them go out to buy whatever you want to wear.But if my sister doesn't want to live in the Shu Palace, then let's buy a house elsewhere in Chang'an City and choose the house that my sister likes.

Then let's rent a shop in Dongshi, let's rent the shop of Yan's family. Young Master Yan and I are friends, so he will definitely give us a little bit of money.We will open a small shop there, and we will sell whatever my sister likes to sell.Maybe I can't be by my sister's side all the time, but Ren'an and Xiangsheng are very good at doing business. With their help, my sister will definitely make a lot of money.

With me as my sister's backing, my sister will definitely meet another good man. If we don't marry him, let him marry into our family. If my sister can give birth to a fat boy, let him be named Xiao. "

Xiao Chunyue cried even harder.

The kind of life Xiao Yanzhi mentioned sounds so ordinary, but it is the ordinary life she gave up a long time ago, can she still find it now?

Xiao Yanzhi said again: "Sister, don't worry, now that I am the King of Shu, what else can I use the great power to do to protect your life's safety and happiness?"

Xiao Chunyue lay on the bedside and cried all the time, Xiao Yanzhi had no choice but to pat Xiao Chunyue's back lightly, until Xiao Chunyue's crying became smaller and smaller, and Xiao Yanzhi stopped.

Sitting up by the bed, Xiao Chunyue suddenly felt that crying too much was a bit embarrassing, so she lowered her head and dared not look at Xiao Yanzhi, but asked in a low voice: "Is your waist okay?"

Xiao Yanzhi shook his head with a smile, and said, "It's nothing, it's just a pain, it didn't hurt."

"I can scare people, I've been like this since I was a child!" Xiao Chunyue raised her head and glared at Xiao Yanzhi.

Xiao Yanzhi chuckled.

Xiao Chunyue turned her head and looked at the closed window again, listening to the sound of the torrential rain outside, she said: "It's raining so heavily outside, it looks like I can't go with you today."

"It's okay, then wait until the rain stops," Xiao Yanzhi smiled, "I'll wait here with my sister, when the rain stops, we'll go home."

"En, good." Xiao Chunyue finally smiled.

But as soon as Xiao Chunyue finished speaking, the window of the room was suddenly knocked open from the outside, three windows were broken at the same time, and three black shadows entered through the window.

Xiao Yanzhi's heart trembled, and he hugged Xiao Chunyue to the bed quickly with his eyes and hands, blocking him behind him, and when he turned back to look into the room, a sharp knife stuck to his throat.

"My lord!" He Yan pushed the door open and entered, but seeing a sword on Xiao Yanzhi's neck, he didn't dare to move.

Taking a glance at He Yan, the man in black whispered, "Close the door."

The man in front of him was covered in black, and even his face was covered with a black cloth, so that his voice was a little muffled, and the only thing that could be seen clearly was a pair of eyes.

He Yan glanced at Xiao Yanzhi and Xiao Chunyue on the bed, and then slowly closed the door.

The man in black looked at Xiao Yanzhi again, and said, "I'm sorry to disturb the lord Chun Xiao for a moment, but please bring your guards and this girl and walk with us quietly."

Xiao Yanzhi raised his brows lightly, and said with a smile: "I have been waiting for this day since I entered the palace, but I didn't expect it to be two years. It's really a little bit to disturb other people's siblings at such an important moment. My son's eyesight is short."

"My lord, please." The man in black pointed his sword forward two more points, frightened Xiao Chunyue grabbed Xiao Yanzhi's arm tightly.

Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips and said: "Since you know who I am, you should also know that I have never been very obedient."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yanzhi hugged Xiao Chunyue with one arm, and suddenly grabbed the quilt with the other hand and raised it towards the man in black. After the quilt completely covered the man in black's sight, Xiao Yanzhi lifted his foot After kicking through the quilt, even the quilt and others were kicked away, Xiao Yanzhi jumped out of the bed with Xiao Chunyue in his arms.

He Yan drew his sword quickly and stabbed, successfully stabbing a man in black, and then wrestled with another.

Xiao Yanzhi originally wanted to send Xiao Chunyue out of the room to escape, but as soon as he opened the door, another man in black descended from the sky, so scared that Xiao Yanzhi hurriedly dragged Xiao Chunyue back into the room.

Fortunately, the men in black blocking the door seemed to be divided into two factions, one of which was protecting Xiao Yanzhi.

As soon as Xiao Yanzhi led Xiao Chunyue back like this, the man in black who had been kicked away by him earlier chased after him, and slashed with his sword.

Xiao Yanzhi hurriedly hugged Xiao Chunyue and escaped.

Pulling out the soft sword hidden in his waist, Xiao Yanzhi curled his lips helplessly: "I'm not good at using swords."
