incomprehensible

It was originally planned to go out in the morning, but in the end it was delayed until the afternoon.Ye Xuehuan even thoughtfully let Lan Qi take a nap for a while before taking him into the carriage.Lan Qi didn't ask where he was going, anyway, it must not be some important itinerary that could delay him so much.

The carriage went all the way north, crossed the Wuzhi River, entered the Shangcheng District, and then turned to the northwest, which seemed to be the direction to the imperial city.Lan Qi was a little surprised, but seeing Ye Xuehuan in light casual clothes, knowing that he was not going to enter the palace, he was also a little confused for a while.When I got out of the car, I looked at the small square in front of me and the plaque on the gate in the distance, and I was dumbfounded.

——It's actually a Taixue Academy.

The place of Taixuefu has always been very delicate in the minds of the noble children.Marquis and above are eligible to send their own children to the Taixue Institute. They entered the academy at the age of six and graduated at the age of 13. It was the most rebellious, stubborn and disobedient period.The tutors in the mansion are all carefully selected, there are civil and military, extraordinary backgrounds, each with supernatural powers, not to mention the privileges given by the royal family, so they don't buy much from these noble children who are usually domineering. Punishment standing, the palm of the hand should be slapped, which is no different from the reward and punishment system of ordinary schools.

Rather than saying that the role of the Taixue Institute is to preach and learn, it is better to say that these young noble children are arrested and disciplined, and instill orthodox etiquette concepts at the most suitable age.

As an aristocrat on the side of the frontier, he doesn't want to be more successful, but at least he can't become a scourge in the fish and meat town.The Chongyang Dynasty attached great importance to people's livelihood, and the management of the nobles was also extremely strict. No matter how arrogant and domineering the young master was, after entering the Taixue Academy and being punished for a period of time, he could still look like a third person.

Of course, there are extremely rare exceptions like Mo Ran. Even when his ass was opened up back then, he was not subdued at all. He can be said to be the number one enemy of the Tai Tuo in this life; The son of Prince Yanbei who supports him is enough to show how brilliant the teaching method of the Taixue Institute is.

Lan Qi was the son of the governor of Jiangdong back then. Although he came from a high-ranking official family, he did not have a title, so he would not be able to enter the Taixue Institute, but he was accepted by the Taifu as a personal student, which is definitely an honor.The Taifu once said bluntly that the young son of the Qi family has mountains and rivers in his chest, is calm and persevering, is impartial, is neither humble nor afraid, and is not moved by foreign things. If he is cultivated, he can take over his mantle and become the next Taifu. Cultivate more promising talents.

The Taixue Academy is full of defiant little thorns, how difficult it is to be a master Taifu who is not angry and arrogant, and everyone is convinced; it is hard to find a qualified personal student, and before he has time to report to the Taixue Academy Being implicated by the family and dying tragically in exile, the Tai Tuo's heartache can be imagined.

If Qi Chengguang hadn't been confused for a moment and made an unforgivable big mistake, this should be Lan Qi's original life.

However, there are so many "ifs" in this world.

Ye Xuehuan gently took his hand, walked across the bluestone square in front of him, and walked up the long steps in front of the gate step by step.

Taixue University used to be a place for royal banquets in the former dynasty. It is not far from the imperial city and occupies a large area. Whether it is the bluestone square in front of the main entrance or the long steps, it is very royal.It is somewhat vigilant to transform the former playground into a school, but the truth is actually a bit cruel-after all, it is a royal school where even the prince has to stay for seven years, and the conditions must be good enough.Ye Xueshi doesn't like extravagance, so he naturally prefers reconstruction rather than new construction, and this is how the Taixue Institute is today.

The gate of the Taixue Institute was closed, and Ye Xuehuan raised his hand to knock on the door. The concierge who came to open the door did not know him, but seeing the two people dressed in gorgeous clothes, he thought it was some noble parent, and told the Taixue Institute very politely that no visits to students were allowed. What's more, there are no schoolchildren staying in the mansion during the holidays.However, Ye Xuehuan obviously came here on a holiday, and slowly opened the letter. The concierge was shocked, and hurriedly welcomed them in, brought them to the flower hall, served tea, and hurried to report.

After a while, a middle-aged instructor came, but he was dressed as a general, and he didn't show any humility when he saw Ye Xuehuan. He smiled and said, "Your Highness is in such a good mood today?"

This man's surname is Zhang, he used to be a general of Bai Ling in the northern region, and he was an old acquaintance with Ye Xuehuan, but after he retired due to injury, he was welcomed into the Taixue Institute by Master Taifu.Ye Xuehuan knew he would see him during the holidays, and said happily, "I haven't seen Mr. Taifu for a long time, and I want to come and say hello to him."

Zhang Jiaoxi glanced at Lan Qi behind him, and he could sense some of his thoughts, but he had been in the army for a long time, and he was not very resistant to male love, so he smiled and said, "Master Tai Tu is not free for the time being."

Ye Xuehuan understood: "Are you giving Sixing a little trouble again?"

Zhang Jiaoxi smiled and replied: "Your Highness the Fifth Highness is intelligent and early-wisdom, and he is proficient in both civil and military affairs. The Tai Tuo likes him so much that he doesn't let people go back on holidays. He often said that if the other Highnesses were half as good-looking as the Fifth Highness in those days, he would definitely be a good old man." It can save a few years of life."

Ye Xuehuan laughed loudly and said, "Master Taifu is completely venting his anger. Mo Ran should be responsible for his broken life capital."

The two laughed together, and Ye Xuehuan said: "I guess you were also caught by the Taifu to give Sixing a small treatment. You don't have to worry about me today."

Zhang Jiaoxi naturally heard the meaning behind his words, cupped his hands and left on his own.

Taixuefu is divided into front and rear courtyards, the back courtyard is the residence of students and teachers, and the front courtyard is used for teaching and performing martial arts.Except for festivals, the Taixue Academy rests on every tenth day, and neither teachers nor students are allowed to go out on weekdays.It's okay to teach Xi, that group of young aristocratic children can't hold back, Feng Mu will all go out to let the wind go wild, and even if Jiao Xi stays in the mansion, he usually rests in the backyard, the front yard is silent, only rows of phoenix trees There are trees and fallen leaves all over the floor, and occasionally there are a few servants who clean up. When they see someone coming, they will salute thoughtfully, and then avoid it far away.

Ye Xuehuan had stayed in Taixue Institute for seven years, so he was familiar with the road, and took Lan Qi around the martial arts field, and came to a small garden.

It is said to be a garden, but in fact there are not many flowers. After all, the Taixue Academy is full of destructive demon kings who not only don't know how to appreciate it, but may destroy the flowers and leaves, so all the rhododendrons are planted with vigorous vitality.In the center of the garden is an ancient ginkgo tree surrounded by four or five people. The crown of the tree can block out the sun and almost cover the entire small garden under its shadow.It's not the flowering period now, and you can't see the bright red rhododendrons, but the dark green leaves and the golden ginkgo all over the place complement each other, which is not interesting.

Lan Qi was held in his hand obediently, but he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart; no matter how open-minded he said, it was impossible not to feel sorry for the life he missed because of his father's sin.He couldn't even understand why Ye Xuehuan brought him to the Taixue Institute, and when he occasionally recalled the glorious deeds of making trouble with Mo Ran back then, he only responded absent-mindedly.

Ye Xuehuan knew what he was thinking, but didn't say much, pulled him to stand under the ginkgo tree, looked at the intertwined branches above his head, and said with a light smile: "Back then, Mo Ran and I bullied Xiuren and coaxed him to come Climb a tree, and then throw him on the branch, and the kid will cry."

He hugged Lan Qi's waist, and breathed ambiguously in his ear: "You said, if you had come to the Taixue Academy back then, I would have thrown you into a tree... What would you do?"

Lan Qi froze for a moment, then raised his head to meet those sharp and bright phoenix eyes, but there was some imperceptible regret and nostalgia in his usual banter.

That earth-shattering poisoning case not only made Lan Qi miss a section of his supposedly glorious life.If everything has not deviated from the right track, this should be the place where they first met, not in such a cold and murderous snowy night, after they both experienced countless hardships, they met in such a defensive and calculating way.

What Ye Xuehuan couldn't let go of was that the first meeting he thought was not the real first meeting. When Lan Qi saw him for the first time, he was in a state of ignorance.He couldn't imagine what kind of mood this little thing had when he planted deed Gu on Lan Qi when the Empress Chu planted it, and what kind of mood this little thing used to look at his sleeping "Master Gu"; In front of him, dragging his whole body of pain and exhaustion, with a proud and fragile posture, he said coldly that he wanted to seek his protection, as if they were really just acquainted for the first time.

Passing each other twice successively is a time that cannot be traced back and made up for a full 14 years.

Lan Qi gently broke away from his embrace, turned around and hugged the ginkgo tree trunk, exerted strength in his waist and abdomen, and dexterously climbed up a thick branch with a height of three people after a few ups and downs, and stood firmly on it.Ye Xuehuan raised his head, the dappled sunlight falling between the leaves made him unable to open his eyes, and he couldn't see Lan Qi's dim figure against the light clearly.

"I'll tell you what I will do."

Lan Qi said softly, one foot sticking out, instantly like a falling leaf, resolutely fell from the branch.

Ye Xuehuan's heart suddenly jumped, and he stretched out his arms to catch it instinctively. The rapid fall made his originally light body become menacing, and his knees sank under the pressure, and he staggered back two steps before he could barely stand still. , hugged him tightly in shock, and was about to reprimand him, when Lan Qi said: "...I will jump down like this."

"I think you didn't have such a strong physique back then. If you followed me, you would have to be crushed to the point of breaking your arms and legs. But if you don't...you are lucky if you fall to death. Crippled and stupid, you will be responsible for the rest of my life."

"Tell me, do you accept it or not?"

It took Ye Xuehuan a while to react, reached out and patted his buttocks, and scolded with a smile: "You are only relying on my conscience to be so confident. If I am really cruel, I will not be responsible if I fall to death or become disabled, move out The identity of the prince presses you, what can you do to me?"

Lan Qi pursed her lips and said, "If you are really that cruel, why are you so boring as to bully people in this way?"

Ye Xuehuan was completely speechless, and felt Lan Qi's arm wrapped around her again, her lips pressed against her ears, and said in a low voice: "As long as you catch it once, you will know that I really dare to jump, and that I am more ruthless than you, so just let me know." Don't dare to bully me again."

Ye Xuehuan shook his head and sighed: "If you were really allowed to come to the Taixue Academy back then, I'm afraid that all the little bullies in the entire government would kneel down for you."

He sat under the tree with Lan Qi in his arms, put him on his lap, held his cheeks in both hands, leaned forward and kissed him, and said with a smile: "If you are really allowed to be a student of Master Taifu, I'm afraid that you will become a student in the future." He must be the most terrifying Tai Tuo since the establishment of the Chongyang Dynasty."

Lan Qi pursed his lips and sighed, "If that's true..."

He didn't go on, and didn't know what to say.This is an impossible assumption, and he is not a person who hurts the spring and the autumn, and does not have such a good imagination to describe a life that has long been missed.Lan Qi can no longer remember whether he had the so-called dream at the beginning, and what kind of expectations he had for his life; before these thoughts had formed in his mind, his life had already embarked on another completely different path. traces of.

However, even if Qi Chengguang resisted the temptation back then, he successfully came to the Taixue Academy, became an official in the court, and even inherited the mantle of the Taifu, is that the life he wants?

He suddenly remembered that before he left Chongyang, he had the courage to ask Empress Chu what she really wanted.Empress Chu gave a rare smile, and replied, "No one really knows what they want."

He was puzzled by this sentence for a while, but then he gradually understood.

Before his life really started, he was bound by a heavy mission; just like the queen of Chu, who married into the royal family in her prime, from then on, only calculations and tricks remained in her eyes.If you haven't experienced it, you won't know whether you want it or not. However, you only have one life, and you can only experience one possibility. There is no way to choose and compare, and of course you can't really figure out what you want most.

Empress Chu's scheming once made the entire government and the public bow down, and now she still has lingering prestige, and her life is as short-lived as a flower in the epiphyllum, but if she can choose, is she willing to just be a young lady in a deep boudoir, a husband and a child, An ordinary life?

Even Lan Qi himself couldn't tell if he really had a choice, if he could do it all over again, would he want to have a smooth career, or would he want to be like this, in the vortex of imperial power struggle, without any worries? Unreservedly depend on each other, accompany each other, know and agree with each other?

"Good boy. It's my fault." As if seeing the struggle in his heart, Ye Xuehuan pressed him into his arms, and kissed him lightly on the forehead, "Shouldn't mention such boring things."

The voice is a little hoarse, and this kind of voice will only appear in two situations, one is approaching orgasm, and the other is depressed.It is clearly two extremely contradictory situations, but they can also make him extremely sexy and charming.Lan Qi couldn't stand his voice the most, no matter what the situation was, she could only cuddle softly in his arms, let him bite her lips, and even her breath would be stained with his breath.

Lan Qi was suddenly a little annoyed. Even if the Qi family did not decline, it was by no means the "home" he wanted; no one in this world could give him such a strong sense of belonging except Ye Xuehuan. It was ridiculous that he would still hesitate, would Comparing fame and fame with Ye Xuehuan is more important.

He closed his eyes, responded to the lingering kiss, and the corners of his lips curved slightly.

——In this embrace is his whole world.

"I—I'm not sorry."

During the kiss, Ye Xuehuan heard his soft but firm voice; the short four words seemed to be wedged directly into his heart, so sweet that it was bitter, but also so hot that it hurt.

Ye Xuehuan's visit to Taixue Institute today is of course not to remember the past; even if time can really be turned back, no matter which node is turned back, he can't do anything.He couldn't stop Qi Chengguang from being greedy for profit, couldn't stop Queen Chu from sending Lan Qi away, and even on that snowy night when he returned to Luanyang, he couldn't share the pain on Lan Qi's knee.

No matter how greedy he is, no matter how strong he is, no matter how windy and rainy he is, he can occupy Lan Qi's life from now on and the rest of his life, but he can't get involved in his past.

When he was still living happily in Taixue Academy, Lan Qi was experiencing the biggest storm in his life.Even this realization made him feel guilty, even if it wasn't his fault at all.It is meaningless to talk about compensation now, but they still have a long, long future.

He still wants to give more, and he can never give up.

"……Good boy."

As soon as the words came out, both of them were a little stunned; Ye Xuehuan had heard Mo Ran call Ye Xuexun like this in the past, and even laughed mercilessly at it, but he didn't expect that when it was his turn, he would call it out so naturally.

She had already done all the intimate things, but she suddenly felt inexplicably ashamed because of a title.Ye Xuehuan let out a fake cough to cover up his embarrassment, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure approaching in the distance, and hurriedly pulled Lan Qi to stand up, brushed off the fallen leaves and grass clippings on his clothes, and stood with his hands behind his back, with a dignified expression on his face.

When the visitor approached, Ye Xuehuan bowed his head slightly, and called out in a polite and courteous manner: "Master Tai Tuo."

At that time, the Tai Tuo's surname was Yin, and his name was simple to know. He was over seventy years old, his beard and hair were all white, but he was still energetic, his voice was like a bell, and his footsteps were like the wind.

According to the system of the Central Dynasty, the Taifu ranks first and is the emperor's teacher. The emperor must salute when he sees him, but he must not be involved in government affairs.Yin Jianzhi is already the grand tutor of the two dynasties, and he has taught countless royal and noble children. Except for Mo Ran, there is almost nothing he can't control; the most important thing is that he is not afraid of power. He personally smacked the palms of his legitimate sons with a ruler. It can be said that there is no one in the world that he dare not beat.However, it is gratifying that although most of the noble children have been reprimanded by the Tai Tuo sternly, and they hate him secretly, but when they really grow up, they all respect him without exception. , It can be seen that Master Taifu has succeeded in educating people, and it also shows that the Chongyang Dynasty attached great importance to the code of conduct of noble children.

It is precisely because of this that when Yin Jianzhi saw Ye Xuehuan embracing her affectionately from a distance, her expression suddenly became uneasy.

He can teach so many aristocratic children to look good, so he is not a pedantic and narrow-minded person, and he will not say "reversing yin and yang" like the old censor; Hugging and hugging is really insulting to the sages.Especially after he just finished teaching the well-behaved and sensible fifth prince, and saw Ye Xuehuan pretending to be serious, recalling all the bad deeds of his group back then, comparing the two, he suddenly felt that he looked hideous and rotten.

The third prince who was feared by countless courtiers like a tiger and wolf, in the eyes of the old matriarch, was still the rebellious naughty boy who would never change after repeated admonitions.

So the old matriarch did not express anything when he saw Ye Xuehuan, and said calmly: "It's hard for the third prince to still remember me as an old man."

To be honest, Ye Xuehuan hadn't seen Yin Jianzhi for many years.Originally, the time of staying in Danlu was not long every year, and it was even more busy at the end of the year. How could I even think of visiting the old lady.

He knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't argue, he pushed Lan Qi closer, and said softly, "Rong Cai brought my Lan'er to visit the Grand Tutor today."

Lan Qi guessed some of his intentions, and bowed his head to salute.

Yin Jianzhi raised his brows, and instinctively resisted, but with Ye Xuehuan's current temperament, he definitely wouldn't bring a male pet to show off to an old man like him; , reluctantly accepted Lan Qi's salute, and then asked: "What do you mean?"

Ye Xuehuan smiled and said, "The students that Master Taifu personally accepted back then, don't you recognize them now?"

"What do you mean I collect it myself..."

Yin Jian knew that halfway through his words, he suddenly came to his senses, grabbed Lan Qi, vaguely saw the shadow of that year from that plain little face, and said in surprise: "You...could it be..."

He couldn't believe it for a while, Ye Xuehuan didn't explain much, and deliberately asked Lan Qi: "Lan'er, I've always been curious, how did you talk to the Tai Tuo back then, so that the old man pointed you out as a student on the spot? "

Lan Qi looked at the old matriarch in front of him, and said softly, "Master Taifu asked me three questions."

Yin Jianzhi's breathing was obviously stagnant, Ye Xuehuan asked again: "What's the problem?"

Lan Qi replied: "Teacher asked me, since ancient times, it has been said that blue is better than blue, but is it really better than blue?"

Yin Jianzhi was completely stunned on the spot, Ye Xuehuan was speechless, secretly slandering that the Tai Tuo was also very poor and boring back then, knowing that the brothers of the Qi family were not on good terms, he deliberately asked such a question, presumably because he disdained his title of "child prodigy" and deliberately made things difficult.So he asked: "How do you answer?"

Lan Qi said: "Blue comes from blue, but from the blue of grass leaves. It is deep and rich because of its extraction, and the world calls it better than blue. However, the color of blue is originally the blue of the sky and the blue of the sea. Light and clear, how can it be compared with the color of mud."

Yin Jianzhi seemed to be hit on the back of the head by a sap stick, and the old memories flooded back like a tide, and he murmured, "According to what you said, isn't the color of blue useless?"

Lan Qi said: "Everything in nature has its own use. Take the green of Polygonum indigo, and you can dye clothes for painting. However, the sky and sunset become dim, and the sea water is transparent when holding it. Who can use it from the sea and sky?"

Yin Jianzhi asked: "The green ones are inferior but usable, and the blue ones are superior but not unattractive. Which one is the best?"

Lan Qi replied: "If it's not that you yearn for the blue of the sea and sky, why do people in the world replace it with the green of Polygonum indigo? The inferior ones can be used but cannot be expected, and you can bow your head and take them; the excellent ones can't be achieved but you can admire them, and look up and look forward to them."

Everything seemed to coincide with that scene back then. Yin Jianzhi was in a trance for a while, as if he was brought back more than ten years ago, on the seawall in Donghai County, between the blue sky and the sea, when the child in front of him was still immature and weak It seems as if the wind will blow away, but in the eyes, there seems to be the blueness of the sky and the sea, high and boundless.

Ye Xuehuan couldn't help being amazed, this answer was really wonderful to the extreme, using Qinglan as a comparison, he bluntly said that he was better than his elder brother, but he never stepped down on his elder brother, even Ao was so pertinent and clear, he had a deep understanding of himself and others. Accurate judgment and cognition, the vision has obviously surpassed most people, and anyone who hears it will be overwhelmed.

And the most impactful fact is that Lan Qi... was only five years old back then.

He couldn't help but imagine that back then, Lan Qi was small, pink and tender, and maybe even had a baby-like voice, with a pair of black almond eyes open, and calmly said these words to the Taifu, The Tai Tu who was originally disdainful was shocked - that appearance must be very cute.

He could have watched Lan Qi grow up like this.They could have grown up together.

"It really is you... how could you..."

Yin Jianzhi stood on the spot blankly, clutching Lan Qi's sleeves tightly, his old and withered hands trembling, tears in his eyes.

Although Lan Qi was known as a child prodigy back then, he was really known by Quan Chongyang after Yin Jianzhi went to Donghai County.

As the emperor's teacher, although the Taifu cannot be involved in politics, he can have a profound influence on the emperor; Yin Jianzhi recruited students with great fanfare back then, to a certain extent, he wanted to test Lan Qi's disposition, and put him under the admiration of him since he was a child. See if he can withstand the temptation.However, the student did not disappoint him, but the student's father was blinded by the sudden reputation.

Naturally, Qi Chengguang should be punished for his crime, but the old matriarch also regretted it. If he hadn't been so high-profile back then and just secretly brought this child back to be raised, would he have been able to avoid a series of tragedies later?Could it be his mistake that caused Ye Xuexun to suffer from heat and poison, and Lan Qi's family to be ruined?

Of course, this account cannot be settled on his head, but the sense of guilt has been suppressed in his heart for more than ten years; now that Lan Qi is standing in front of him alive, it can only make him dizzy and feel as if he has passed away.

"Lan'er has been doing things for my mother all these years." Ye Xuehuan didn't want to explain too much, and said very vaguely, "Now that the things are done, she will stay by my side."

Yin Jianzhi sighed: "Back then I begged the Empress of Chu for extrajudicial favors but could not reply. I only knew that she was so ruthless and selfless. It turns out...it turned out that she took you for her own use..."

Lan Qi and Ye Xuehuan twitched the corners of their mouths at the same time. They were afraid that the Queen of Chu would take a fancy to Lan Qi, but it was thanks to the old lady Fu.

Yin Jian knew that his mood was difficult to calm down, so he grabbed Lan Qi and looked at it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more he felt happy, but soon he saw something wrong.Since Empress Chu has washed Lan Qi's background, she will not let him do anything good, so the old lady Fu also wisely didn't ask.But after all, he was working for the Queen of Chu, and he only thought that Lan Qi's name of "male favorite" was just a cover, but now he saw the looming red marks under his collar; However, he couldn't hide the neat little teeth mark in the middle of his neck, so his eyebrows stood on end in anger, he pulled out the ruler around his waist, slapped it on Ye Xuehuan's forearm, and cursed: "Zizi! Your mother's queen!" To save such talents for Zhongyang, but let you ruin them like this!"

Ye Xuehuan: "..."

He had endured this ruler countless times when he was young, and after more than ten years, he ate it again unexpectedly, it didn't hurt much, but he couldn't help being stunned.

Lan Qi was also stunned. He didn't care what Yin Jianzhi was talking about. He hurriedly lifted up Ye Xuehuan's sleeve and saw a bright red ruler mark on his forearm. Could not be more obvious.

Yin Jianzhi became even angrier when he saw this, and pulled Lan Qi behind him, scolding: "You don't have to compromise! This old man makes the decision for you, so I won't teach this shameless man to bully you!"

Ye Xuehuan can't laugh or cry, the handsome Northwest commander, the son of Empress Chu, has military power in his hands, so many people flock to him, but in the eyes of the Taifu, he is a "shameless upright son", and he believes that he used his power to "ruin and bully" Lan Qi, I didn't know how to react for a moment.But seeing the Tai Tuo defending Lan Qi so much, he felt happy in his heart, and couldn't help but glance at Lan Qi with a smile on his face.

Lan Qi's face was slightly red, and his heart was filled with warmth, and he whispered: "Master Taifu, I am not wronged..."

"You don't have to speak for him!"

In the eyes of the old lady, this smile is full of meaningful and meaningful meanings, which further confirms that Lan Qi is being forced to lie down, holding a ruler in his hand, and making a gesture to slap him.

Ye Xuehuan smiled and said, "Master Taifu, why don't you let Rong Cai finish speaking first."

Yin Jianzhi snorted coldly, signaling him to speak quickly.

Ye Xuehuan said: "Although there is no real master and apprentice, Lan'er is a student accepted by the Taifu himself. He will be a teacher for a day and a father for the rest of his life. Rong Cai came today... to visit his father-in-law."

Lan Qi: "..."

Yin Jianzhi's eyeballs almost popped out, and said in a trembling voice, "You, what did you say?"

Ye Xuehuan bowed deeply, and said softly and solemnly, "Master Tai Tuo, please help me."

"..."

The old lady Fu clutched her chest, rolled her eyes, and passed away.
