Hao Jiasheng didn't leave that day, he stayed in Wangyue Villa. Although he no longer rushes in to look for Ronghua, he often quietly appears at the gate of the courtyard where Su Jingyang and the others live, looking inside intently.
Rong Hua stayed inside and didn't come out at all. Hao Jiasheng looked at Ah Xuan who was practicing martial arts in the courtyard, his eyes were very focused and complicated.
After seeing Su Jingyang several times, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart, what's going on with Hao Jiasheng, first he approached Moon Mountain Villa, then Rong Hua, A Li, and now A Xuan... Su Jingyang felt that everyone around him They can all be related.
He lost his composure in front of Ah Xuan that day, which made people even more confused.
What a mysterious man.
When Ah Xuan practiced sword with Mu Jin and Rong Ci that day, Hao Jiasheng came again, standing sideways at the moon gate, looking at Ah Xuan quietly.
Ah Xuan looked back and saw him, seemed to be thinking about it, took his own small wooden sword, waved away Song Hui who was about to follow, and ran in front of him.
Hao Jiasheng didn't seem to expect him to come over suddenly, his eyes widened slightly, he took a step back nervously, and slightly bowed to Ah Xuan who was much shorter than him.
Ah Xuan raised his small face and blinked his big eyes curiously and asked him: "What are you always looking at me for, do you want to play with me?"
Hearing Ah Xuan's childish questioning voice, Hao Jiasheng's cheeks flushed suddenly, and he looked a little uncomfortable, "I, I'm not, I just want to see you...I want to see you practicing swordsmanship, did I bother you?"
Ah Xuan looked at him, frowned and said: "Not really, but why did you cry when you saw me that day?"
Hao Jiasheng's voice was choked up, and then he said with red eyes: "Because... I suddenly remembered the wrong things I did, which almost caused the destruction of the family, and it was irreparable. I felt very ashamed and uneasy, and was afraid that my ancestors would blame me."
Seeing his sad look, Ah Xuan stepped forward and patted his arm with his own little hand, and comforted him like a little adult: "Okay, okay, don't be sad. You are older than me, why are you still crying?" ?”
Hao Jiasheng lowered his eyes, caught a glimpse of his actions from the corner of his eye, was startled, and then smiled bitterly.
A Xuan looked back at Rongci who was waving at him, and said to Hao Jiasheng: "I won't tell you anymore, I'm off to practice swords."
Ah Xuan turned around and ran away, Hao Jiasheng stretched out his hand, followed him and walked two steps forward involuntarily, but stopped soon.
He stood and watched for a while, then turned and left.
Su Jingyang and Lingli saw this scene under the corridor, and after looking at each other, they both saw confusion in each other's eyes.
Can't see through, really can't see through.
Su Jingyang heard from Xu Mei that Hao Jiasheng had been in charge of the Liyang Chamber of Commerce for half a year. Completely transformed after one time? This really shocked Su Jingyang who despised him back then.
Now he is tall and handsome, dressed in fine clothes and jade crown, with outstanding momentum, he is completely like a noble son of an aristocratic family. When he returns to the town, no one will dare to recognize him.
Could it be that Ren Du's second channel has been opened up
Su Jingyang went back and asked Rong Ci if it was true that there was Ren Du's second pulse, and he was so greedy that he gritted his teeth, "I really want to get through, so that I can be smarter than you and better than you, and I won't be bullied by you anymore!"
Rong Ci patted his head, and praised him softly: "Well, you are not only beautiful in appearance, but also beautiful in thinking."
"..."
The next day, there was a traditional lion dance meeting in Liyang. The participants were all folk artists. There were a large number of people. They would go to the streets together and perform with gongs and drums along the road. Less reward money.
Xu Mei suggested going out to watch the fun together, and took Rong Hua to relax. Su Jingyang was about to hug the child, but Xu Mei told him to stop thinking: "It's so rare that we have time to relax. What are we doing with the child? Wait for them When I grow up, I will go out and play by myself."
Su Jingyang couldn't refute what he said, and thought that it would be inconvenient to take care of the child if there were too many people on the street, so he left the child in Wangyue Villa and let the nurses look after it.
They packed up early and set off, walking together in twos and threes, with the guards scattered around.
Hao Jiasheng also silently followed them out of the gate of Wangyue Villa. Looking at the back of Rong Hua and Xu Mei walking together, I couldn't help but follow up and call his name, pleading with my eyes, "Rong Hua, can you talk to me?"
Rong Hua clenched the whip in his hand, turned around and whipped it hard, Hao Jiasheng didn't hide, his body trembled, the servant behind him stepped forward to accuse Rong Hua, but Hao Jiasheng stopped him with a cold face .
Rong Hua pointed at him with a whip, looked at him and said: "One step at a time, follow up and try."
Even if Ronghua left Rongcheng, she still wore women's clothing, a red gauze dress, and a red hairband fluttered and fell in the wind between her jet-black hair, rubbing against her white and cold cheeks.
His cold and ruthless appearance overlapped with the images in his memory, as if burning Hao Jiasheng's eyes and heart. He looked deeply at Ronghua, his eyes surged several times, and finally restrained himself: " You really, hate me so much? You don't even want to talk to me?"
Rong Hua said without hesitation: "Yes, I hate you from birth! I want to kill you when I see you, so don't pester me again, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
Hao Jiasheng's face turned pale, and he closed his eyes tremblingly. Seeing this, Xu Mei hurriedly pulled Rong Hua away, and shouted to the front: "Jingyang, Ah Li, wait for us!"
Mu Jin stepped forward and patted Hao Jiasheng on the shoulder, he didn't seem to know what to say, he shook his head and quickened his pace to chase after Xu Mei.
For some reason, there were so many people on the street that day. The street was originally separated by things, and there was a place for performances in the middle, but now it is so crowded that there is no boundary, the lion dance team has not yet arrived, and the people watching the lively fish in troubled waters are crowded into a pile .
Even Mu Jin said unexpectedly: "It was lively in previous years, but not to this extent."
Su Jingyang also witnessed a thief stealing someone's purse, but because there were too many people, he was discovered within a few steps and was beaten on the ground.
Su Jingyang hasn't seen the lion dance yet, but the excitement is a joy to watch. He was about to ask Lingli to watch it together, but when he turned around, he found that Lingli, Xu Mei, Ronghua, and Mu Jin had been squeezed to about ten paces. outside.
Lingli only had time to shout: "Jingyang! Axuan!" He was obliterated by the crowd and pushed farther and farther. After a while, Su Jingyang couldn't even see his head. Su Jingyang couldn't help worrying, but just now he saw Song Hui and Ronghua have been protecting him, so nothing should happen.
They were probably not taken away with the flow of people in the middle of the road because they were standing slightly to the side just now, but Yun Qi and Hao Jiasheng's servants were all so crowded that they couldn't even see their shadows.
Su Jingyang looked at it, he, Rong Ci, A Xuan, and Hao Jiasheng were the only ones together now.
After looking around on Rong Ci's neck, Ah Xuan also found that Ling Li was gone, so he hurriedly asked Su Jingyang, "Uncle, where is my father?"
Before Su Jingyang could speak, Hao Jiasheng, who had been standing quietly beside him, comforted him in a gentle voice: "It's crowded, but don't worry, he will go back to Wangyue Villa later."
Rong Ci glanced sideways at Hao Jiasheng, Hao Jiasheng felt his gaze, and slightly nodded at Rong Ci, "Master Rong."
The voices were noisy, Su Jingyang didn't hear Hao Jiasheng's intentionally lowered voice at all, and continued to look into the distance on tiptoe, still thinking in his heart, this is not to watch the lion dance, but to look at the head!
Rong Ci's black eyes suddenly tightened, staring at Hao Jiasheng, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you, Your Excellency? Why are you here?"
Hao Jiasheng heard his question in a cryptic manner, but understood that he had already noticed it, and couldn't help sighing: "The Lord Rong is indeed the Lord Rong, no matter when he is, he is so extraordinary."
Rong Ci narrowed his eyes slightly, "Who the hell are you?"
However, Hao Jiasheng had already shifted his gaze to another place, and said softly: "This is not a place to talk, I will talk to you in detail some other day, I... have something else to ask the city lord to help me."
Su Jingyang turned around and wondered, "What are you two muttering about?" Rong Ci withdrew his gaze, glanced at him, and shook his head, "It's nothing."
They stayed in place for another quarter of an hour, and finally a lion dance team began to appear and pass by. The crowded crowd can still automatically make room for them, everyone cheered while watching, Su Jingyang was dazzled by the sight, and he also threw some copper coins over like those people, there are people who pick up money in the lion dance team .
After about 20 teams passed by, the crowd here finally became much thinner, and most of them hadn't seen enough and followed the team of lions. It is said that there will be a competition somewhere in the future.
Su Jingyang had already seen the freshness, and was unwilling to follow along, so he told Rong Ci to go back first, but unexpectedly, at this time, a team that was much behind was wearing lion costumes, and accompanied by the light and heavy drums and gongs, shaking their heads and tails , the dancers came, and gathered the crowd that had already dispersed.
This team is different, they are not in a hurry to collect money, but interact with the people around them for fun. Su Jingyang feels that the dancers this time seem to be more exciting than the previous ones, and their movements are full of neatness.
"This is good, this is good." Just as the lions in the team were all in front of him, Su Jingyang opened the money bag and grabbed some more money for them.
But unexpectedly, just as he bowed his head, the killing intent suddenly appeared! ! !
The lion dancers threw away their lion costumes one after another, pulled out their long swords and attacked them. People on the street screamed and dispersed. When Su Jingyang looked up, he saw a dozen long swords gleaming with cold light. He was caught off guard. They were all dumbfounded. Rong Ci's expression froze, he lifted A Xuan down and handed it to Su Jingyang, and drew his sword to meet him.
Su Jingyang hugged A Xuan and Hao Jiasheng and was forced into the circle, with a wall behind him, and there was no way out.
"Uncle!" Ah Xuan looked a little helpless, but he didn't cry, he just hugged Su Jingyang tightly with his hands.
Su Jingyang observed solemnly for a while, and found that those people tried to break through Rong Ci's defense several times, trying to come towards him.
Su Jingyang is not stupid, he has no reason in this world to provoke such murderous intentions. The most likely thing now is that they are the ones who killed, A Xuan.
Because A Xuan is the heir of the new emperor.
When Su Jingyang thought of this possibility, his heart turned cold. They still thought it was the same as before, and they didn't think about this possibility, so they were careless for a while.
Ah Li, will Ah Li be in danger...
Hao Jiasheng stood in front of Su Jingyang and A Xuan, watched the battle coldly for a while, then even pulled out his dagger and joined in to help Rongci.
It's a pity that he can only punch and kick, but not internal strength, he was knocked down to the ground in a short time, was injured, spat out blood, couldn't struggle, he clenched his teeth, his face was full of annoyed hatred.
It was already a little difficult for Rong Ci to deal with the dozen or so martial arts killers by himself, and a few masked men in black flew out from somewhere, and one of them took advantage of Rong Ci's unprepared time and came straight towards Su Jingyang .
"Uncle, uncle..."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
Su Jingyang's first reaction was to quickly put A Xuan down as a cover behind him, with the approaching sword light reflected in his pupils, he gasped in fright, and once again deeply realized how powerful martial arts are. important!
With a wave of Rong Ci's long sword, his face was splashed with blood. When he looked back, his eyes widened. He no longer looked behind him, and flew forward with all his strength, blocking the long sword that had already pierced Su Jingyang's chest. The two swords collided, and there was a piercing sound, which made Su Jingyang feel numb.
Rong Ci quickly dealt with this man, Su Jingyang saw the sword attacking behind him, and shouted in shock: "Be careful behind!"
Su Jingyang's body moved, almost subconsciously rushing to block him. Fortunately, Rong Ci reacted quickly and evaded the move by embracing him. However, because of this, A Xuan was left alone for the time being. When Su Jingyang saw someone approaching Ah Xuan, he was so impatient that he bled!
"—Ah Xuan!!!"
But seeing Ah Xuan dexterously roll over and dodge, narrowly dodging a few attacks from the oncoming people, it seems that his martial arts practice has paid off, but he is still too young after all, although his speech quickly faded away. Breakthrough stepped forward to rescue him, but he was inevitably scratched by the sword energy on his shoulder, and fell to the ground, blood soon stained his clothes red.
Su Jingyang hurriedly broke free from Rong Ci, knelt down and hugged his small body in his arms, panicking all over, "Ah Xuan, Ah Xuan!!"
A Xuan's face turned pale, and he leaned into Su Jingyang's arms and whispered: "I'm fine, I'm fine..."
Before he finished speaking, he tilted his head, closed his eyes and passed out.
Hao Jiasheng almost crawled over with his arms supporting his body. He threw himself in front of Su Jingyang in a bit of embarrassment. Seeing the blood red on A Xuan's shoulders, he was already unconscious, with bulging veins on his forehead, and his red eyes blurted out with a low urgency. call.
There are still several killers left unsolved, Su Jingyang was holding Axuan anxiously, worried that Rong Ci would be injured, and was thinking of a way to rush out and carry Axuan to the hospital, just in a blink of an eye, he saw Mu Now Ronghua and the others rushed over quickly, he was showing some joy on his face, but because of Hao Jiasheng's low call, he was shocked all over his body.
His expression changed in an instant, his eyes widened in horror, he froze for a moment, then he turned his head abruptly, staring at Hao Jiasheng in disbelief!
This... is Hao Jiasheng's face, that's right! ! !
But, he swears! He heard correctly just now! He is definitely not hallucinating!
Although his voice was very low, restrained, and trembling, what Hao Jiasheng yelled out just now in a hurry was those incredible words!
Almost instantly, Su Jingyang felt his head buzzing, and a numbness and chills spread from his head to the soles of his feet, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and cold sweat broke out on the back of his forehead!
— If it's true, it's a damn hell!
Because, the two words that Hao Jiasheng yelled at Ah Xuan turned out to be - father, emperor! ! !
