Once magnificent, now brilliant

"Get up first." Qi Xiang is also a slave, so there is no reason for Xiaosong to kneel to him, "Xianxuan asked you to come?"

"Yes." Xiao Song stood up, "Our young master is not at ease if someone else comes to pick you up, I'm afraid you don't know him, so you won't trust him. It's useless for the young one, he was sick for a few days on the way, so he came late."

Xian Xing is the grandson of Teacher Qi Xiang and one of the few friends of Qi Xiang.He still remembers the day when he was exiled, Xianzhen sent him ten miles away, with a sad face, and told him carefully over and over again, even though he hadn't seen each other for five years and had no contact, Qi Xiang was still grateful for his kindness in his heart.

Xiao Song is Xian Xuan's servant, he has been with him since he was a child, and now he has grown up a lot, but he still has seven points of his original appearance, which is not difficult to recognize.

"Are you feeling better?" Qi Xiang poured him a cup of tea.

Xiaosong hurriedly said that he didn't dare, took the teapot and poured it by himself, "It's already cured, but it suddenly rained when passing through Suoding County, and the little one was drenched thoroughly, and he became ill."

"It's always right to add more clothes when going out." Qi Xiang sat back on the bench, "I appreciate your young master's kindness. You helped me back and said that although I am free now, I am still a slave." , There are many right and wrong in the capital, and it is not my wish to go back and let people discuss it for nothing. Just let me live in the border, and if there is a future, I will come to the door to talk about it."

"No way!" Xiao Song directly refused to bring the message, "Our young master said, we must take you back, otherwise we don't have to go back. Young master, your slave certificate is already in the young master's hands. You have been convicted of a crime, and there is no way to burn the paperwork to return you to your normal household registration, but you know our young master, and you will definitely not let you be wronged. After the old master and the young master heard the news of the amnesty, they cleaned up a second room Xiaoyuan, I will wait for you to go back and live!"

"Teacher too..." His teacher was the prince's tutor, and he had taught the current emperor, and now he still misses him, Qi Xiang was a little moved.

"Is Tai Tuo okay?" Qi Xiang's tone was very light, he didn't want to hear bad news.

Xiao Song said with a smile: "Yes, the old man is in good health, the same as when you left. Just hearing the news of the amnesty, the old man's eyes were red, and he happily ate an extra bowl for dinner."

Qi Xiang took a long breath, "Let me think about it again. The conditions here are rough, and you will live there."

When Xiao Song saw that there was a door, he immediately said with a smile on his face, "If you don't let it go, if you can live in it, we servants can live in it too."

"I'm also a slave now, so you don't have to use honorifics." He couldn't change Butler Pan, but Xiaosong could always be changed.

Xiao Song panicked and said: "I can't do it! Don't say that the young master knows that he will take my skin off, just say that the young master's talent and demeanor must not be equal to the young one."

"It's all over." Qi Xiang looked past Xiaosong and looked out of the window, "Now I'm just a crippled body, full of beauty."

"Sir, don't say that. When you return to Beijing, the young master will definitely find you the best doctor to take care of you." He could tell that Qi Xiang was in poor health, and the scars on his face were also very ugly. There is no other way, but if you take good care of your body, it will always be fine.

In the evening, Butler Pan came back with vegetables and half a chicken.He was very surprised to see Xiao Song, and after learning of his intention to come, he gratefully thanked Xian Xing for his kindness.

Xiao Song said in embarrassment: "But Mr. Qi doesn't seem to want to go back to Beijing. Uncle Pan, can you help persuade him? It is absolutely impossible for our young master to let Mr. Qi stay here and suffer."

At the beginning, Xianzheng and Qi Xiang attended classes together, and Xiaosong and Uncle Pan often met each other, so they were naturally more familiar than others.

Butler Pan sighed, "I can understand your concern. It would be fine if the matter of the general is really forgotten, but how can you just forget about such a big matter? If you let people know about it when you go back, it will only increase the discussion. It will cause trouble for Master Tai Tuo and Young Master Xian. If it really gets involved, Young Master will feel uneasy."

"Sigh, the Grand Master and the Young Master must have already considered these matters. If they really had concerns, they would not have asked me to invite them all the way. The matter back then had nothing to do with the Young Master, so there is really no need for the Young Master to worry."

"Young Master has always been careful. He must carefully consider important matters such as returning to Beijing. When the news came yesterday, I happily told Young Master that he can finally return to Beijing. But Young Master does not seem to have any intention of returning to Beijing. It can be seen that A lot of worries."

Xiao Song sighed: "Master, you don't have to care so much. Both our young master and the old master are looking forward to your return. If you are so worried, if you don't go back, our grandfather will come to look for you in person."

"This can't be done. The journey is far away, and the Taifu can't bear this tiredness. If you hurt your body, won't it be a disgrace to our young master?"

"Then you can help me persuade the young master, everyone is looking forward to the young master's return."

Butler Pan pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "I will tell you well, Young Master."

After dinner, Butler Pan gave Qi Xiang a pot of chrysanthemum tea.

"My lord, when I came back today, I heard that the official surnamed Zou died." Steward Pan walked to Qi Xiang with tea.

Qi Xiang took the tea, took a sip, felt a little hot, and put it aside to cool, "I also heard about it early this morning."

Butler Pan said happily, "Good death! Now Liang Fu can also rest in peace."

"Yeah, after we pick a good place to bury him, I'll burn incense for him." Qi Xiang sighed lightly, unwilling to recall too much.

"My lord, how can it be better than the place in the middle of Beijing? Liang Fu grew up with you in the middle of the capital, and taking him back to be buried is also a fallen leaf returning to his roots." Pan Butler observed Qi Xiang's expression. Liang Fu's death has always been Qi Xiang. A scar in his heart, if Qi Xiang's face looks ugly, he must keep his mouth shut, so as not to make Qi Xiang sad and get sick again, "And son, you have been in poor health, and there is a shortage of doctors and medicines here, it is not a problem. The climate in Beijing is good, and there are many doctors, so you should think more about yourself, so go back."

Qi Xiang picked up the cup again and drank the ready-to-drink tea, "Uncle Pan, it's not that I don't want to go back, but if I go back, it will definitely attract attention and cause trouble for the teacher and Xianzheng."

"If you don't want to be conspicuous, let's find an inconspicuous small courtyard to live in, and I'll take care of you, okay?" His legs and feet are not very good, but his body is still quite strong. Apart from moving slowly, nothing else will affect him. .

Qi Xiang hesitated: "Let me think about it again. It's getting late, you should go to bed early."

Butler Pan knew that persuasion was not a thing, so he brought the teapot and put it on the small stool at the top of the kang, "Then I will go out first, and the young master will also rest earlier."

After Pan Butler closed the door, Qi Xiang slowly poured the second cup of tea.

It's not that he doesn't want to return to Beijing, but that he can't take the initiative to return to Beijing, let alone return to Beijing with a high profile. If people are defensive at the beginning, the subsequent things may not go smoothly.He lived for 24 years, his father ignored him, his aunt took precautions, and his aunt was full of hostility towards him, so his life was not going well.Fortunately, there are still aunts who love and care for each other, but the two of them have no good results in the end.In the past, the only person around him now was Butler Pan, and there were some things he didn't want to let Butler Pan know, so as not to worry.

The next day, Qi Xiang still refused Xiaosong's request to take him back to Beijing, and asked Xiaosong to return with his letter, presumably Xianzheng would not make things difficult for Xiaosong.

Komatsu is a man, and he will never go back until he completes his errands.It was only arranged that one of the families who came along would ride a fast horse back to deliver the letter, and asked the young master to think of a way to write a letter to persuade him.

The family had just left for a day, when a group of people stepped on the dust, attracting villagers to watch from a distance.

Xiaosong went out to have a look, and when he saw the man who came down from his horse, dressed in a strong outfit, with a face like a carved one, he immediately knelt down on one knee and said with a smile, "I have seen General Bai!"

The man's face was stern, and his voice was as cold as his face, "Get up."

Xiao Song got up happily, not afraid of him, and rarely saw him, "Why is General Bai here?"

"Entrusted by Xianxie, I'm afraid he won't want to go back, so let me pick him up." The man spoke directly, but at the age of 24 or [-], he was even more calm than him.

"The young master is really good at predicting things. Mr. Qi doesn't want to go back to the capital. The younger one has sent the general back to deliver the letter yesterday."

"What about others?"

"The young master is in the house, please come to the general."

Qi Xiang in the room had already heard Bai Junyu's voice.I haven't seen him for five years, maybe his appearance has changed, but his voice has changed very slightly.Qi Xiang is not easy to remember other people's voices, but because this person is Bai Junyu, the Bai Junyu that he imprinted in his bones, the Bai Junyu that he misses day and night...

Qi Xiang was timid, he didn't want to see him, and he didn't dare to see him. He never thought that they would meet like this, and he never thought that he would not want to see him with this face.

At the same time, Qi Xiang was also silently comforting himself, Bai Junyu was just entrusted by others, maybe he would never see each other again when he returned to Beijing.Their identities are different, and there is really no need to communicate.But thinking of this, he felt a little pain in his heart.Or maybe after seeing Bai Junyu, he found that Bai Junyu was no longer what he remembered, and this feeling faded away, which is unknown.

No matter how sad, entangled, and worried, they all stopped at the moment the door rang.

Qi Xiang shook Zai Ma's fingers and opened the door pretending to be calm.

Bai Junyu is half a head taller than Qi Xiang, and now she has a leaner figure, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, and she is very imposing in strong clothes.He looks much more handsome than Qi Xiang's impression, and he has become a real adult.

Everything seemed to be still, terribly quiet, and his ears seemed to be buzzing, and he couldn't tell where he was. At this moment, Qi Xiang's eyes were full of Bai Junyu, and he couldn't move his eyes away. His thoughts were not as expected. Changed, and even began to regret such a sudden meeting, maybe it would be better for him to cover his face with a cloth towel, even if it looked weird.

Bai Junyu was also stunned, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with Qi Xiang's daze. After a while, she frowned slightly sharply, "What's wrong with your face?"

Qi Xiang was pulled back to reality from the illusion, with mixed emotions in his heart, but he pretended to be calm on the face, "It's nothing, I got hurt accidentally."

Bai Junyu raised his hand and pinched Qi Xiang's chin, wanting to take a closer look at the two scars.Qi Xiang quickly patted his hand away, and took two steps back, as if he didn't like being touched.

Bai Junyu didn't force it, he just did what he thought just now, but as far as the relationship between him and Qi Xiang was concerned, it was really not good enough to touch each other at will, he was reckless.Not wanting to embarrass each other, Bai Junyu said: "Wen Jing, Er Mian told me to take you back. This is also the meaning of the Taifu."

Wen Jing is Qi Xiang's name, which was bestowed by the Taifu. It has only been five years, and no one has called him by his name. Now it sounds very strange.

"Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble when you come to pick me up?" He had thought that Xian Xuan would come, and even that the Taifu would come, but he never thought that Bai Junyu would come.

"Since I'm here, I can only be afraid of me." Bai Junyu said without hesitation.

"What if I don't go with you?"

Bai Junyu's arrival was indeed unexpected, but it had to be said that it was a surprise.It's not the joy I want to see, but the reason to return to Beijing passively is already sufficient.

As soon as Bai Junyu stretched out his hand, the family behind him immediately put a bundle of ropes in his hand.Bai Junyu threw the rope onto the broken wooden table beside Qi Xiang, "Get into the carriage and follow me, or I'll tie you up and send you to the carriage, choose."

The author has something to say: Thank you for your support!

Bai Junyu is attacking!
