Troubled Times

"Go, do what you have to do, maybe we can be together again after you finish that game of chess, cough cough" Ouyang Hui started coughing up blood again after speaking, he stretched out his hand and touched Fang Ling affectionately Yan's side face, the once powerful hands are now weak and weak.

"No, I'm not doing anything, I'm here, I'll be with you, okay?" Fang Lingyan cried in embarrassment. If he and Ouyang Hui hadn't quarreled about his future marriage to Han Caizhu, Ouyang Hui wouldn't have something will happen

"Xiao Wei, take him away, I'm tired, I want to rest" Ouyang Hui asked Ouyang Wei who was beside the bed to pull Fang Lingyan out, and Ouyang Wei threw him directly at the door

"Get lost, if it wasn't for my brother, I wish I could kill you right now." Ouyang Wei said viciously and closed the door

..................

In the darkness, Fang Lingyan suddenly sat up panting heavily, his face was already wet and cold. It has been a long time since he had this dream, since he went to Beiting, he seldom had it again.

"A Hui, you will come back, right?" Fang Lingyan said softly. Since that incident, the only warmth in her eyes has disappeared.

There was no funeral in Ouyang's mansion and no news of the eldest son's recovery. They all left Zongyang City and went to a place that Fang Lingyan didn't know about.

At that moment, Fang Lingyan suddenly hated his own powerlessness. It was because he was useless that he couldn't protect the person he wanted to protect.

Fang Lingyan lifted the quilt and took out a shining night pearl from the lattice at the head of the bed. He walked to the closet and groped in the dark for a while. The inner wall of the closet suddenly opened, revealing a secret room. Fang Lingyan Holding the luminous pearl, he walked in slowly. On the wall of the secret room was a portrait of a person sitting or standing. His temperament was like a bright moon, and his three-dimensional facial features were as handsome as a knife. He was eighty percent similar to Ouyang Wei, except that the corners of his eyes were not. Removed the mole of tears.

Fang Lingyan stroked the face of the person in the portrait with his hands, "It's been a long time since I've seen you, look, it's all dusty." Fang Lingyan carefully wiped the portrait in his hand with his sleeve

"I thought you didn't have that much influence on me anymore. I overestimated myself and underestimated you. I actually don't want to see Xiaowei, because seeing him seems to be a sign of something to me. ...Caizhu may be right, we are all people who cannot have happiness, maybe we were all evil people in our previous life." There was a low laugh in the darkness, more like a sob

"Pavilion master, the second master is here." Xiao Wu said to Fang Lingyan who was sitting in the room and still playing chess leisurely

"Well, let him come in." Fang Ling ordered without turning back his cigarette butt. When Fang Chengbai came in, he saw Fang Lingyan wearing a mask playing chess.

"Second brother is so excited, playing chess here by himself"

"What's the interest? It's just that I don't have anyone to play chess with me. Since you're here, play a game with me." Fang Lingyan pointed at Fang Chengbai at the seat opposite her

"Second brother, why is he still wearing a mask today?" Fang Chengbai asked curiously after sitting down, Fang Lingyan coughed twice and cleared his throat, "I usually wear a mask, after all, there are too many enemies."

"Come on, let me see if you have regressed over the years." Fang Lingyan quickly changed the subject and handed the white piece at hand to Fang Chengbai

"This piece is.... Sheep Fat Jade, Second Brother's handwriting is really great." Fang Chengbai joked while playing with the chess piece in his hand

"That's right, didn't I give Fang Jinghou a piece before?" Fang Lingyan said casually, Fang Chengbai remembered the chess piece on Fang Jinghou's forehead when he died

"Could it be..."

"No, that was all I had on me at the time. My pawn was not designed to kill people." Fang Lingyan knew at a glance that Fang Chengbai had misunderstood something.

"Oh, then I don't worry, did the second elder brother receive the invitation?" Fang Chengbai thought for a moment and dropped his head.

"Received, it was delivered by an old friend himself." Fang Lingyan ate the other party firmly, and then sighed

"Second brother, let's go together, otherwise it would be boring to be alone." Ever since meeting Fang Lingyan, Fang Chengbai has acted like a child who can't leave his brother, and wants to stick to Fang Lingyan every day, so that Pang Defu's jealous jar doesn't know broken geometry

"Okay, I'm going anyway, the two children have also received invitations, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Hu has received it, I guess all the warlords should have received it"

"Just let those two children represent Fang's family to attend. You can't go out under Jiang Yihong's name all the time, can't you? I never thought that I have a daughter-in-law here." at a glance

"Alright, our current identities are not suitable to represent the Fang family. Today, that kid Han Feiyu sent over [-] soldiers and horses. He said that he just heard about what happened a few days ago and sent them to Mr. Hu for self-defense." Fang Chengbai Casually talking about recent events

"Oh? This kid is kind. Unlike his father, Mr. Hu's ability to see people is still as good as ever. That's good. The Fang family really needs some soldiers to deter the enemies around them." Fang Lingyan The last ball has fallen, completely cutting off Fang Chengbai's back path

"Don't play, don't play, I can't beat you at all, I haven't touched this thing for many years"

"You, I guess you forgot what you learned from me back then."

"That's not true, but it's about the same. Second brother can continue to teach me."

"You, it's all an excuse, don't you just want me to be under your nose?"

"Second brother is still smart..."

Listening to the two people talking and laughing inside, Elder Qi who was standing outside felt relieved, after all, the low air pressure of the pavilion master before the second master came almost made him out of breath

"Is this really that magical?"

"Young master, I don't know. Our pavilion has been open in this Zongyang City for many years. If it's a lie, it would have been closed a long time ago." The boss introduced his shop with a very proud look.

"How old is it?"

"It must have been more than 20 years," the boss recalled

"Come on, I'll smoke a fan too"

"Okay, please"

Jiang Ying reached into the big box containing the fan, and took out a handful from it.

"If it is transparent, it will be flawed?" Jiang Ying glanced at the words on the fan in his hand a little strangely.

"Huh? How could it be this?" The boss's tone seemed to be surprised

"Have you seen it?" Jiang Ying asked back

"I've seen it before. This fan was pulled out more than 20 years ago. The reason why I was so impressed was because the girl who got this fan changed her expression on the spot when she saw these four words, and she asked me to borrow a knife to kill her." These four words were scraped off,” the boss recalled,
