Lingyun Jianghu

"Silly girl, why are you crying?" Ling Yu wanted to reach out to wipe away her tears, but after hesitating for a moment, she retracted her slightly raised arm.

"Huh?" Nalan Ling burst into tears but didn't know it. She wiped the corners of her eyes, dripping tears, and there was still a trace of warmth. She didn't know why she was like this, but she always felt a little ashamed when she didn't cry.

She picked up a jujube, took a bite, sobbed a bit, and said, "This jujube is so sour that tears came out of it."

"Aren't you a fool to eat it even though you know it's sour?" The tone was soft but gentle.She took the green dates from Nalan Ling's hand and put them in the fruit plate.

"Master, I..." Nalan Ling always felt a little bitter in her heart. Although the date was sour in her heart, it was not as sad as her inexplicable emotion towards Ling Yu.She didn't know what she was sad about, she wanted to ask something, she was afraid of being abrupt, she wanted to know more, and she was afraid of touching the past that Master didn't want to mention.

"What do you want to say?" Ling Yu always had a faint smile on her face. Nalan Ling couldn't understand whether there was an unknown sadness behind this smile. In her unknown memory.

Will those be about her?Or is she just an ordinary apprentice of the master.Who is the light in Master's eyes blooming for?She didn't know, and didn't dare to ask.

"It's okay, I'm going to get busy first, and I'll see you later." Ben teased the master with a stubborn attitude, and made himself depressed every time.

The sudden sadness always caught her off guard.She knew that a corner of her heart was missing, related to the lost memory, but she couldn't find it.In the past two months, she tried to recall and recall, but there was no memory about Master in her mind.

The Nalan Bank has never been opened, and the construction of commercial roads leading to Nanyang has been hindered. The local government must report the land to the king of the fief, and then the fief Kaisou will get approval from the imperial court before the construction can start.The way of business is the way of government, and doing business with Nanyang is a very important matter, and it cannot be solved by money.

Her original plan was to dig rivers, build bridges and houses, go all the way south, and open another road directly to Qingzhou on the middle road.Opening up the roads in all directions will naturally facilitate the exchange of merchants, not to mention the beautiful scenery of Zhongshan County and the abundance of materials. It should not be difficult to complete this grand plan.

For this reason, Nalan Ling was busy with this matter every day, trying to find a way to solve the current predicament. For several days, no one was seen.

At the same time, the legend about Lan Tong in the world finally subsided after Fu Ming's evil deeds were exposed.However, the fact that Lingyun Pavilion hides the four major secret arts is still eye-catching.Not only the four major secret arts, but also the treasures in Lingyun Pavilion, all kinds of martial arts cheats and even superior weapons are all coveted by greedy people.

The slanting branches are sparse, the snow is quiet, the plum fragrance is tangy, and the pavilion is covered with mist.In the quiet evening of winter, the West Wing is exceptionally quiet.Ling Yu was playing Reversi in his hand, and a red shadow flashed in front of his eyes.

"Pavilion Master, there are always people coming and going near Lingyun Pavilion recently. I heard that the three major sects have united with those small sects to negotiate with Lingyun Pavilion and ask us to hand over the four major secret arts." Ying Hongye was in the dark. Looking at the situation in the rivers and lakes, even though Fu Ming died, the rivers and lakes are still turbulent.

Ling Yu was calm and composed, and smiled lightly: "Aren't the two elders afraid that I will turn against other sects? Then it is better for Elder Tao and Elder Mu to negotiate."

"Yes, but Pavilion Master...how long do you plan to stay here?"

"Come back in early spring and spend the New Year with them."

"Your subordinate understands." After Ying Hongye was ordered to leave, she left without a trace, and was never discovered by the soldiers.

The snow was cold and quiet, and the tea in the bottle was cold. Although Ling Yu was concentrating on the chessboard, she felt someone approaching.Those lingering footsteps vary in severity, who else is it if it's not Ling Changan?

"Do you have anything to do with your sister?" Ling Yu raised his eyes, and Ling Changan approached with a smile, holding a beautiful cloak made of white cashmere, "I don't know if I disturbed my sister's rest, my brother sent someone to make you a cloak, you try try."

Ling Chang'an thoughtfully put the cloak on for Ling Yu. Although he had relied on Ling Yu since he was a child, Ling Yu was arrogant and fierce, and he dared not get close to him.Now that she has gone through vicissitudes, her edges and corners have been smoothed, and he dares to get close to her only if she is gentle in her gestures.

"Just talk about it." Ling Yu saw through him at a glance. She knew Ling Changan too well. When she was a child, she always hesitated to speak when she wanted something, and she couldn't hide her intentions.

"No...no, I'll play chess with my sister."

Ling Yu smiled and said nothing, "Okay, let's see if your chess skills have improved over the years."

"I also ask my sister to be merciful."

In the game between the two, Ling Changan became tense from his original calmness, and he was cautious about every move. He did not know when he fell into Ling Yu's "trap".

Ling Yu calmly took it as a pastime, making moves at will, not in a hurry to win, but to maintain a draw, and always leave a way out for Ling Changan when he is in a desperate situation.

"Sister..." Ling Changan was still in a trance, feeling a bit dazed.

"Ah."

"I..." He held the black chess piece in his fingertips, feeling uneasy, always feeling a little despicable, but he didn't want to lose the great opportunity.He gritted his teeth and mustered up the courage to ask, "Can I marry Ling'er?"

Ling Yu's heart skipped a beat, her brows were unconsciously frowned, her whole aura was low, "She agreed?"

"No, no, I haven't dared to say it yet, I just want to try..." Ling Changan sat on pins and needles, "Sister, it's really disgraceful for me to be like this. I know that Ling'er had something to do with her before she lost her memory, but what is she doing now? I don’t even remember, let’s start from the beginning, my brother doesn’t want...don’t want to miss this opportunity.”

Ling Yu was expressionless, but said lightly: "It's your turn."

"Ah? Oh, oh." Ling Changan lowered his head and put it casually, Ling Yu quickly picked up the white stones, and ate a large piece of black stones after dropping them.

His eyes widened, wasn't he surrounded in a small area?How could it be eaten so much?He put down another sunspot to try to fight back, Ling Yu surrounded him again without hesitation, the sunspot was surrounded twice, and the main force was almost destroyed.

Ling Yu was merciless and drove him to a desperate situation in the shortest possible time.

The game of chess is like a battlefield. In the fierce fighting, Ling Yu's meek voice sounded slowly: "I have never objected to whom you like or marry. I said that if Ling'er is willing, I have no objection." After finishing speaking, she Throwing down the pawn, "You lost."

Ling Changan lowered his head in a daze, the white pieces were arranged in an orderly manner, and he himself was completely defeated.He never won over his sister, never.

He sighed dejectedly, if Ling Yu hadn't given him a few blows, he might have died even worse.

"What are you playing?" Nalan Ling rushed over excitedly, and she didn't see Ling Yu for three consecutive days. Every night, she walked to the west chamber, looked at the lights in front of Ling Yu's window, and didn't leave until they went out.

As an apprentice, one should not have too much emotion towards the master, let alone want to peek into the master's heart. Nalan Ling wanted to restrain the urge to see Ling Yu, and endured it for three days, but couldn't take it anymore...

"Ling'er, we are playing chess." Ling Changan stepped forward with a smile on his face, and Nalan Ling walked past him, his eyes never stopped, only Ling Yu was in his clear blue eyes.

Ling Changan held his mouth in frustration. He should be used to her ignoring himself. When her sister was not here, she could still look at herself occasionally. After her sister came back, she still only had her sister in her eyes.

Even if the memory is lost, is the feeling of deja vu still there?Ling Changan felt sore in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

"Master, my lord has so much to do every day, so why not play chess, I'll play chess with you."

Ling Yu narrowed her eyes, "Okay."

Nalan Ling drove Ling Changan away, she knew her chess skills, she didn't want to be surrounded by people, ridiculed, and she didn't want to be disturbed by others.Although challenging Ling Yu is self-defeating, I still can't help but do something with Master.

Master's internal injuries have not healed, so it's not appropriate to let her teach him martial arts. It's really boring to be bored in the west wing every day.

"I will let you three sons, you go first." Ling Yu pushed the black chess piece to Nalan Ling, she raised her head and accepted it happily: "That's right, you are the master, you should give way to some disciples."

Ling Yu smiled and shook her head.

She had never heard that Nalan Ling could play chess. It was not surprising that the daughter of a rich family was proficient in all kinds of chess, calligraphy and painting, but it was not necessarily the case with this young lady, her intelligence was used elsewhere.

Nalan Ling was hesitant, paying special attention to every move he made.Seeing that her chess skills were not as good as Ling Changan's, Ling Yu played a few random moves, chasing and entangled with her in the chess game.

If she doesn't win, Nalan Ling won't win either.

"Hmm~" Nalan Ling rested her chin and looked at the chess game, concentrating on her strategy.

Ling Yu suddenly asked: "Ling'er, what do you think of Chang'an?"

"pretty good."

"Which one is better?"

Seeing Ling Yu's serious question, Na Lanling thought for a while and replied, "Chang'an is a gentle, elegant and handsome man, gentle and considerate, and he is the queen of the royal family. A woman's ideal husband."

Ling Yu's smile froze, like the setting sun, slowly sinking.She didn't say a word, but after Nalan Ling finished speaking, she was eaten five times in a row.

Seeing that she was at a disadvantage, Nalan Ling became more careful with every step she took.But no matter how she observes the situation, Ling Yu can easily decipher it. She has been eaten ten times in a row, and she is helpless.

The master is too merciless, just now the chess style was still gentle, this will be like a violent storm, raging and killing himself.She is so miserable... What did she do wrong... To be abused like this...

If you are not careful, you may win or lose immediately.After thinking about it, she hesitated for a while before letting go, but was blocked by Ling Yu again.

"Eh? Wrong, wrong, I made the wrong move." Nalan Ling hurriedly picked up the black chess.

"what are you doing?"

"I, my hand slipped and I misplaced it." She actually played a rogue.

Ling Yu looked at her speechlessly, but there was nothing he could do about her, he could only let her go.My apprentice, what can I do?

Nalan Ling put another position, Ling Yu chuckled, and was about to let go, but she stopped her again: "Wait, wait, I'll think about it again."

"Ling'er, you are a true gentleman without regrets."

"I'm not a gentleman, I'm a little girl." Nalan Ling cheekily put down the chess piece for the third time.

Ling Yu shook his head helplessly, and glanced at the sunspot. The more he walked, the more he went wrong, and the more he thought about it, the more he blocked his escape route.

"Have you made up your mind?"

Nalan Ling nodded uncertainly, her shrewd eyes stared at Ling Yu's jade hand, and she swallowed nervously.Seeing that Ling Yu's white piece was about to fall, she hurriedly retracted the piece, "No, no, Master, let me think about it again."

"How can you play chess like this?" Knowing that she was playing tricks, he still accompanied her to make trouble.

As long as Ling'er is happy, being alive is a blessing. After experiencing life and death, Ling Yu has seen through too much.

"I'm younger than you, Master should love children, let me do it." Nalan Ling clasped her hands together, coquettishly, coquettishly.

Ling Yu didn't like her before, but now there is only infinite doting in her eyes, she smiled sweetly: "Then, should I just let you win?"

"It's not necessary, it's not fun, just play a game to make Master happy." Nalan Ling put his chin in his hands, looked at Ling Yu with a big smile, and committed a nympho.

"Watch what I'm doing, stop playing chess?"

"Go, go..." Nalan Ling stared at her intently, and randomly placed a chess piece.

Ling Yu sat up straight, pointed to the chessboard and said, "If I lose one piece, you will lose miserably. If I don't lose, you still have a chance to escape. What do you want Master?"

"Master can do whatever he wants." Nalan Ling was absent-minded, her eyes were full of love after she was playing a rogue, she was usually cold and cold, but when she faced Ling Yu, she would let go of everything, keep her innocence, and use the purest heart to her.

Her heart is like a sea, boundless, Ling Yu docked on the shore, she found a foothold, and only here can she get a little warmth.This winter is actually not that cold, at least at this moment, Nalan Ling's heart is warm.
