Lianhua Town is the largest town in the vicinity for dozens of miles, and it should have been very lively. It was almost noon, but the main street was still deserted. The few pedestrians who occasionally went out were also in a hurry and dressed in rags. It seems that those who have connections have gone to relatives and friends, and those who have no connections can only stay in the town. Life is very difficult.
With a simple bun and a plain white skirt, Rong Changan is so energetic and radiant, as if he has endless energy!
Yan Li is wearing a black long gown today, with a tall and straight figure and deep eyes. Beside the energetic Rong Changan, he looks even more restrained, wise and accessible!
The noon sun shone on the one white and one black figure, leaving two figures on the ground. The two quietly came to the gazebo they had passed by again. The breeze blew by, and they felt a little cool!
Yan Li stood by the pavilion with his hands behind his back, looking in the direction of the capital, as if he saw the imperial city full of intrigues through thousands of mountains and rivers.
Rong Changan sat on the stool, with his left leg resting on his right leg, holding two stones picked up from the roadside in his right hand, tilting his head and meditating.
After a while, Yan Li's cold voice came out, "What you did was right."
Rong Changan looked up at Yan Li, and slowly got up and stood beside Yan Li, "Do you know that for a person, life is the greatest happiness. The greatest goal of my life is that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there will be no more wars to start a prairie fire." .Unfortunately, people speak lightly! There is no way to do it." Rong Changan's calm expression was slowly filled with incomprehensible melancholy.
"When I was young, they all taught me to restore the country and take back my country. Then I grew up and was confused for many years. It wasn't until many people around me died that I gradually understood that as long as the people live and work in peace and contentment, the emperor It doesn't matter who it is. I came to be the censor incognito, and I want to be a powerful minister and do some practical things for the people. I hope the people live a happy and healthy life." Yan Li's gaze remained motionless, as if immersed in memories.
"I didn't expect that you and I have similar goals? It's too difficult to live and work in peace and contentment, even more difficult than your restoration of the country."
"Rong Chang'an, shall we cooperate? Let the common people live a stable life, okay?"
Yan Li, who is usually indifferent, now has longing and apprehension in his eyes, but no hesitation. Looking straight into Rong Changan's eyes, waiting for her answer.
Rong Changan turned around slowly, raised his head to meet Yan Li's excited eyes, and was shocked.
"Okay, Yan Li, I, Rong Changan, promise to be with you to give the common people a stable environment." Rong Changan still had that calm smile on his face.
"Hehe, then let's go around the East Street and investigate the people's livelihood. I heard from them that there is a market on the East Street today, and it is very lively." Yan Li suggested in a brisk tone, as if what they were talking about just now was not at all What is a major matter of the national economy and people's livelihood.
"Okay!" Rong Changan replied with a smile and a cheerful smile.
Rong Changan smiled strangely, and jumped up to her white horse. Knowing that it was the owner's arrival, the horse excitedly kicked its front hooves. She stepped on the saddle like a cloud and flowing water, smiled back at Yan Li, and rode the horse away.
When Yan Li followed Rong Chang'an's direction, he only saw a white horse tied to an old willow tree by the river, and he had long since disappeared.
We have arrived at the market ahead, and there are stalls of various colors on both sides of the road, and there are all kinds of things for sale. There are local snacks, candied haws, rouge powder, umbrellas and other small department stores for eating, drinking and having fun.
Right now Rong Changan was in front of a stall selling umbrellas, picking and choosing, and finally propped up a small milky white and cyan plum blossom patterned umbrella. Holding the umbrella with both hands, the person and the umbrella circled around together. They looked like they liked it very much, and their expressions were very happy.
Yan Li looked from afar, only to see a pretty figure hidden under a delicately embroidered umbrella. The figure is pinting, and the person is more delicate than Huajiao. This is the first time he sees Rong Changan as a girl, not his partner.
An uncontrollable strange feeling formed in his heart, he wanted to protect her and keep her safe for the rest of her life.
By the time Yan Li suppressed this weird thought, Rong Changan had long since disappeared.
"Chang'an, Chang'an", Yan Li yelled to search for it. Although he knew she would never throw it away, he was still worried.
Yan Li walked along the umbrella booth for more than ten meters, and then stopped because there was a fight ahead. The people watching the excitement formed a circle, and Rong Changan was watching the excitement from the opposite position, with a smile on his face and very happy.
In the middle is a girl of sixteen or seventeen and an old man of about fifty, facing each other as if they are about to start a fight.
Both of them have strong footwork and steady stature, and they are experts at first glance.
The little girl yelled while preventing the old man from making a move.
"Wu Xu, you are already so old, and the title of Martial Sage should be changed. I will challenge you, a veteran master today. You must remember the name of this girl, Yue Wushuang of Hidden Sword Villa, I defeated you. Yours. As a warrior, you should eliminate the strong and support the weak, and you cannot be someone else’s lackey like you. Today, I’m here to seek justice for them.”
"Little girl, you are indeed capable, but didn't your lord tell you when you went out? Don't meddle in other people's business. I am the Taishan Beidou of the martial arts. I am a junior like you who can challenge me casually. Go back now, so you won't regret it." Displeasure flashed across the old man's face. It was too embarrassing for a child to challenge him.
"Hmph, I'm just trying to get justice for that child, so let's see the truth!" The little girl Yue Wushuang immediately started to attack.
It turned out that the old man was getting older and didn't want to be old and homeless, so he served as a guard for a family surnamed He. The only son of the He family was lustful, so he let his persuasion be ineffective. A few days ago, Mr. He fell in love with a woman selling tofu by the city, and wanted to snatch it back to the house, but Yue Wushuang found out and disturbed him.
The son sent him out to get rid of Yue Wushuang, and he didn't plan to do anything after knowing Yue Wushuang's identity. He can't afford to mess with the prestigious Tibetan Sword Villa in the rivers and lakes, and doesn't want to mess with it. But Yue Wushuang insisted on challenging him. This is already the third time!
Yue Wushuang's weapon is a sword, tall and slender, very sharp.
The old man's weapon was also a sword, and the moment it was unsheathed, there was a cold light, and there was a faint sound of dragon chant. Compared with Yue Wushuang's sword, it is not of the same grade at all. From the perspective of weapons, Yue Wushuang will suffer a lot.
An old swordsman and a young talent, the two quickly fought together.
Yue Wushuang harbored hatred in his heart, so he struck fiercely, and under the premise of protecting himself, he did not leave any room for ultimate moves.
The old man is a master of swordsmanship, calm and graceful, and his steps are swift.
