"Brother Fan, you're coughing again. It's better not to talk any more. I'll pat you and you'll be fine." Wei Guo stepped forward and patted Fan Zong's back gently, with a distressed look on his face: "Brother Fan, why don't you find a miracle doctor? I heard that there is a miracle doctor, Mr. Cheng, who lives in seclusion in the mountains. His medical skills are particularly powerful. If you can find him to help you heal, your illness will be cured sooner. .”
"Miss Wei, you don't need to worry about this anymore. The young master is seriously ill and it's not appropriate to talk too much. You'd better not talk so much to the young master." The young man came over and couldn't bear it anymore.
Why is this Miss Wei's control so lenient? Didn't you see that the young master didn't want to talk to her? Didn't you see that the young master's face turned pale and he was about to lose his strength
"Then I won't say anything anymore. Brother Fan, you go back and rest quickly. I'm leaving first. I'll come see you when I have time." Wei Guo put down his hand in a sullen voice, looking at Fan Zong eagerly and reluctantly, biting his Lip said: "I... I will come again."
Wei Guo looked back at Fan Zong affectionately every step of the way until he disappeared from the street.
"Master, the second young lady of the Wei family is so..." After entering the house, the young man racked his brains but couldn't think of a word that could describe Wei Guo.
"The Wei family has been having some trouble with our Fan family recently, and there are some conflicts over business visits. Miss Wei can't offend her." Fan Zong tightly held the bloody handkerchief in his hand, his face turned as white as paper, and there were flashes in his eyes. Have a moment of deep thought.
His days are numbered and his little brother is still young, so he must pave the way for him as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if he is no longer here, with a wife who is the head of the Fan family, and a vicious and cruel second young master who can't hold up a wall and just eats and drinks, will my little brother still have a way to survive in the future
"Only a young master with such a good temper can tolerate her. Fortunately, the young master broke off his engagement with her, otherwise he would have to endure such a woman in the future."
The boy shook his head and said, with a bit of sarcasm on his face.
Fan Zong smiled nonchalantly.
For him now, marriage is a trivial matter, and the only thing he cares about is his biological brother.
Deng Lin…
Fan Zong stopped smiling, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought of that slender and frail woman - Qin Qiqin.
At that time, when he first saw her, he felt that she was familiar. The woman said that this was her first time in Yangzhou City. Now he finally remembered that he had seen the woman's portrait.
I accidentally saw the portrait painted by Deng Lin. Deng Lin caressed the woman lovingly, with complicated eyes, as if he was treating the most pitiful and beloved person.
The love in his eyes was clearly visible before.
That woman must be Deng Lin's beloved.
Fan Zong did not go back to his room to rest immediately, but came outside the study.
Far away, I could hear a crisp child's voice reading, and a man's gentle voice explaining.
"Master, do we want to go in?" Seeing Fan Zong standing there, looking at the door of the study without going in, the young man asked tentatively with his head shrinking.
"Go back, and ask Deng Lin to come find me in my room later!" Fan Zong said with a complicated look in his eyes, turned around and left with a quick stride.
The boy slumped his shoulders and followed Fan Zong away.
Fan Wei, who was endorsing, stopped the sound of endorsing, opened the door and looked outside, looking around and touching his head in confusion.
"Weier, what are you reading?" Deng Lin put down the book and walked over.
"Sir, I think I heard my brother's voice, did you hear it?" Fan Wei frowned.
"Weier heard it wrong, sir. He didn't hear it. The third young master will probably come in when he comes." Deng Lin said with a smile, closed the door and touched Fan Wei's head: "If you are worried, you will be confused. The third young master will not He puts himself in danger, he has his own plans for everything, you should worry about yourself, the third young master will come to check the homework tonight!"
"Oh, you bring this up again." Fan Wei muttered with a small mouth, his baby-fat face looked very cute, and said in a daze: "I haven't completed the homework assigned by my brother yet, and my brother is too kind to me. It’s strict, I’m only ten years old, I’m only ten years old, so I’m allowed to learn so many things.”
"Your brother wants you to be independent early and grow into a man in the future. Okay, let's continue reading. I promise you will pass the test tonight."
"Okay, let's get started." Fan Wei is a child after all, and it is a child's nature after all. When he mentioned studying, he immediately put Fan Zong's affairs aside.
After a while, I remembered the sound of reading loudly.
Deng Lin narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought. His eyes stopped on the blooming chrysanthemums outside the window, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
The third young master came, and he saw a shadow from the window when he left. As for why he didn't see Fan Wei, it was probably because his condition had worsened again.
Regarding the expectations of the third young master, he also knows that the third young master has saved his life and adopted him. Regardless of whether the third young master is there or not, he will do his best to help the fourth young master Fan Wei.
As for Qin'er...
Qin'er, we can't be together in this life. You have your prince. You two are of the same family and status. You will definitely be happy when you marry him. Let me bring the beautiful memories between us and my guilt for my mother. Live your life.
I hope we won’t have many twists and turns in the next life.
…
Ye Xingtong ran out in a panic, staggering and almost falling several times. After running out, he walked through the long corridor and found an artificially carved rockery.
In front of the rockery is a garden with flowers in full bloom. In the garden, various flowers the size of bowls are blooming, vying for beauty, fragrant and fragrant, and bursts of fragrance.
Leaning on the rockery, Ye Xingtong slowly stretched out his hand to caress his beating heart, and breathed a long sigh of relief to calm down.
Secretly warned himself: Ye Xingtong, you have been reborn once, why are you still as panicked and hopeless as before? You went back to before you got married, you changed your destiny, you will not be betrayed again, that damn man will do what he wants. There is a price for the behavior.
Looking down, a pair of bright and crystal eyes focused on the black bracelet made of black beads on the wrist.
With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, Ye Xingtong slowly put his hand on the black bracelet that was shining brightly in the sun, and breathed out slowly. The tension, contradictions, and panic in his heart... were all relieved one by one. .
Ye Xingtong, you are you, you have changed the fate of a tragic death, there is no one in this world who can make you sad, sad or hurt anymore.
"Princess Qingyang?"
A low and probing voice came from Qingci. Ye Xingtong returned to reality from his deep thoughts, quickly put down his hand, and raised his eyes to look at the owner of the voice.
"Are you Young Master Dong Qi?" Ye Xingtong raised an eyebrow and said after seeing the appearance of the person coming.
Dong Xun put away the folding fan in his hand, his eyebrows were crooked, and there was a deep smile in his eyes: "I didn't expect you to remember me. I'm really surprised. I wonder how Princess Qingyang is doing lately?"
Ye Xingtong raised his lips and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay. I'm thinking of Mr. Dong Qi. Xingtong is really lucky. Since we are all smart people, I won't be mean to you, so I won't have many unnecessary words." Having said that, I just want to ask you, do you want to be that flying eagle that soars in the sky, or do you want to be that trapped lion beast on the ground?"
Dong Xun tapped the palm of his hand gently with the folding fan and frowned, wondering: "Princess Qingyang, this is really hard for me. Tell me, if you want to be a soaring eagle, you have to give up the chains that imprison you." , you can fly freely for a while and let me roam the nine heavens, but after flying high, you will face the fate of being shot by the bows and arrows prepared on the ground again and falling to death or being arrested. If you do that trapped You may use your own power to escape, or you may be watched and imprisoned, gaining temporary safety, or you may be killed immediately... It’s really hard to choose either... "
Ye Xingtong's mouth twitched. Dong Xun had been hanging out with his brother for a long time. His ability to be high-profile and expressive was exactly the same as his brother's.
Drawing out his soft sword, Ye Xingtong quickly placed the sword across Dong Xun's neck and smiled: "What about now, do you still find it difficult to choose?"
"Oh, no, no, swords don't have eyes. If you get hurt and hit..."
Before Dong Xun finished speaking, Ye Xingtong brought the sword closer and just touched Dong Xun's neck: "Stop talking nonsense, don't say anything!"
The coldness on his neck made Dong Xun stop talking nonsense. He tapped his long sword with his folding fan and said with a wry smile: "Do I have any other choice? I will do whatever you want me to do. I will be honest with you." Tell me, I was sent by the emperor to come back with Jin Zhuangyuan, and the emperor gave us ten days to find someone."
Ten days
Ye Xingtong raised his eyebrows: "Don't try to fool me. If you were only given ten days, why did it take two months to find this place?"
"I really didn't fool you. The emperor was furious when he heard the news of your disappearance, and then ordered me to enter the palace immediately to look for your traces. Originally, the emperor planned to let me and the Minister of Rites secretly investigate your traces. But then I don’t know why I changed my mind and asked Jin Qicai to be with me. As for why I didn’t find you until now, of course it’s because of me.” Dong Xun finished speaking in one breath, then stepped back a little and said: “I’m done. , can you take the sword away now?"
"Okay, I believe you for now!" Ye Xingtong took back his soft sword and said in a deep voice: "Where is Jin Qicai now?"
Jin Qicai couldn't find her for two months, fearing that one of them, Dong Xun, was up to something wrong. Ye Xingtong looked at him deeply, as if she wanted to see through him.
Dong Xun was shaken by Ye Xingtong's sight, and he patted his chest in fear, complaining: "Girls, don't be so impatient... Okay, let's not talk anymore, Jin Qicai is currently staying in the west courtyard with Mr. Wei, the head of the family who has just returned. Chatting.”
