Lan sat alone outside the door, and the cool breeze blew on the young man's face from an unclosed window. The wind in Luocheng was much gentler than the mountain breeze in Ancheng, but it gradually dissipated the drunkenness. The night market in Luo City has ended long ago, and everything is quiet outside.
Yu Ji¡¯s figure is clearly visible in her mind, and the sound like a silver bell is lingering in her ears. Lan shook his heavy head, stood up, and walked to the window, hoping to calm down. As the alcohol faded, I opened the wooden window and looked at the unfamiliar street scene. Lan sighed.
Yes, the Ancheng of the past is long gone, and Boss Wei and the residents he was once familiar with died in mysterious circumstances. I haven't helped them avenge their blood, but I have been enjoying a comfortable life. Thinking of this, Lan not only clenched his fists, he looked back at Yu Ji's room, and seemed to have made up his mind.
"Is it really true that drinking to drown one's sorrows makes the sorrow worse?" And Yu Ji in the house couldn't sleep either. She originally thought that a hangover would allow her to temporarily forget her worries and have a good night's sleep. But she didn't expect that she would be so fragile from the illusion of alcohol so quickly.
She was originally the daughter of a famous family. Since she passed the coming-of-age ceremony, her beauty and beauty have been spread far and near. Gradually, matchmakers came to propose marriage, including high-ranking officials and nobles, as well as wealthy businessmen. My parents are no longer alive; both parents are gone, and my eldest brother is my father. The marriage that should have been decided by the parents was left to the eldest brother.
Yu Tianchi can also see what her sister is thinking, and he is particularly concerned about his only sister. He is afraid that he has seen the wrong person and ruined his sister's life's happiness. He wants his sister to decide who she likes. He did not agree to any family's proposal of marriage, and only told the noble son of the family who wanted to propose marriage to visit him in person.
"When those noble gentlemen came to the house, the elegant and suave ones that the matchmaker said turned out to be dissolute sons. Those elegant scholars are actually just fake scholars who carry a book with them all day long and pretend to be scholars. There was even someone who was as old as his father and wanted to marry her as a concubine. From then on, Yu Ji could no longer trust those matchmakers.
And now that she is a child of a poor family, I am afraid that among those noble people who care about being well-matched, who will take a fancy to her? . She only has the beauty of a willow, and her long years of superior life have prevented her from controlling the family and cooking. Not to mention weaving and other things that ordinary women can do.
The figure of Lan appeared in her mind again. Although they had only known each other for a week, Lan had already occupied her heart, and she had secretly promised him life and death. But when I look back and think about it carefully, how can I be worthy of Lan now?
She has also seen Lan¡¯s skills. Although it cannot make a fortune, it is enough to make a family well fed and clothed. However, I only know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and it is difficult to protect myself even with swordsmanship. The slight intimate contact with Lan in the past caused ripples in her heart. She had already regarded this man as her husband, but for some reason Lan suddenly left. Does he really have no personal affection for his children?
,
Alas, Yu Ji felt more and more that she was like catkins in the spring breeze, and fate had already blown her to sway in the wind. I wanted to cover myself with a quilt and fall asleep, but I couldn't fall asleep no matter how much I tossed and turned. Hearing the footsteps gradually receding outside the door, he hurriedly opened the door to see what was going on. When he poked his head out, he found that the corridor was already empty.
??Lan, has she finally left herself? Yu Ji weakly supported the door.
In the distant Ancheng, Li Yi felt that he had just been pulled out of bed by someone. He was about to get up and curse, and rubbed his eyes, but he saw that the person was one of the captains next to Heiyu. His anger was completely released immediately. "Sir, what are your orders?"
The captain had already been angry with Kuroyu, so he shouted to him, "Put on your civilian clothes immediately and come with me to chase people!" There was a hint of anger in the commanding tone.
Li Yi didn¡¯t dare to say anything at the first level of officialdom, so he was put into ordinary clothes and followed the captain out of the store. There were already several people dressed like him outside the store, all dressed like ordinary civilians, and behind them they were leading a few horses and a carriage that they got from nowhere.
The captain also took off his helmet and put on a more delicate coat. His face was also revealed. Different from his ferocious tone, he changed his clothes and looked like a cunning businessman, and the previous murderous aura was gone.
The captain ignored the rest of his entourage and said with a little astonishment: "From now on, you are all my servants and guards. We are a business team, you call me Mr. Lin, we are starting from Ancheng, going to Yan city ??(today¡¯s main city) to deliver goods.¡±
Master Lin immediately unfolded two scrolls and pointed at a beauty in the painting. Li Yi also recognized the beauty. She was the only daughter of the Yu family, named Yu Ji. A few days ago, he was holding that painting everywhere. Question this person. "You can only capture this woman alive, and you cannot hurt her at all. I know that some of you like to flirt with women. If you have any wrong thoughts about this woman, you will surely become the new chief internal manager."?" Everyone agreed, and two others sighed quietly.
He pointed to another picture scroll. Li Yi recognized the man's head on the picture scroll at a glance as that of an Orion he had interrogated that day. The captain's tone suddenly became serious, "This person, his name is just one word, His name is Lan. This person killed several of your brothers and ran out of the city with that beautiful woman. When you see this person, you can cut him into pieces, or cut him into pieces with a thousand cuts. If you take this person's life, your rank will be You can be on an equal footing with me.¡±
Those "servants" and "guards" suddenly came out of the state of just waking up, and Li Yi followed suit and shouted together, "I am willing to lead the way for Mr. Lin!" They knew that if the official rank reached the level of the captain, Soon, you won¡¯t have to run around anymore.
When preparing to set off, Li Yi was ordered to check Mr. Lin's goods. They were full of sharp knives. In another small box, there was a sword that Li Yi had never seen before. He did not dare to look carefully. After looking at it, he hurriedly checked the goods, got on his horse, and left Ancheng under the cover of night.
