    PS: Today is my birthday, thank you all for your messages.  Also, can I ask for a monthly pass as a birthday gift?  Chapter 741: A ferocious tiger emerges from the gambling tower Yang Qinyan, the eldest princess of the Sui Dynasty, peeked at the two people in the carriage from time to time and listened carefully to the little tune hummed by the old man outside. Although the people in the carriage were still the same as before  In silence, the white-eyed young woman fell asleep holding a bamboo basket, and the young scholar lowered his head and read. No one paid attention to her, but there were tears in the corners of her eyes.  She wanted to cry, not because the ditty was sad, nor because no one cared about her.  Not because she felt pitiful, but because she saw hope.  She told herself, I did the right thing.  If she stayed in Changchun Garden, she wouldn't even be considered a bird in a cage. She only felt like a pig raised in a pen by others, waiting to be raped when she became fatter and fatter.  Drink blood and eat meat.  It seemed that her fate had been determined that she would be next after Prince Yi Yang Yin drank all his blood, and after the little emperor poisoned himself with grief and anger.  No, not that close.  Her fate may have been doomed the moment Yang Jian massacred meritorious officials in his later years after the founding of the Sui Dynasty, and the moment the old dean Wan Xingchen walked into the imperial study.  It's not just her?  Which descendant of the Yang family is not like this?  But she escaped, and escaped from the city of Chang'an that the Yang family swore they would not abandon even if they died.  Over the past two hundred years, the Yang family has gradually developed a deep-rooted understanding.  Chang'an City is home, and Chang'an City is the Sui Dynasty. From the founding of the Sui Dynasty to the present, there has never been a time when there was no Yang family in Chang'an City.  Now, the time has come.  Although Yang Qinyan thinks this is a kind of sadness, she also knows that it is a kind of hope.  She left that city, not to escape, but to take it back.  "Thank you!" She suddenly said two words, and the tears in the corners of her eyes could not help but flow down.  The young woman with white eyes glanced at her and smiled gently at her for the first time: "Cry if you want. Maybe some people will say that crying is a weak behavior. Maybe some people will say that crying can't really solve anything.  Maybe some people say that crying is the most helpless expression But since God has given people the right to cry when they are sad, why can't they cry? " These words completely released Yang Qinyan's heart.  Her tears fell down her cheeks like streams, and the traces of tears on her face that had not been washed for several days were full of sadness.  She was the eldest princess of the Sui Dynasty, and she was responsible for reviving the Yang family after the death of the young emperor.  But she was just an ordinary girl. In the previous twenty years of her life, there were no words like bloody killing associated with her.  The young scholar glanced at her but said nothing. He seemed to have no reaction to the woman's tears.  "We will pass through Ningcheng in the afternoon" He closed the book, was silent for a while and said: "If nothing else, the city gate has been closed, so we can only go around. If you can't find food today, you will be hungry.  So, although God has given people the right to cry, no one can stop it at will, but I still want to tell you that if there are interceptions in the front and pursuers in the future, we may bypass everything.  Being in a deserted place means that you may have to go hungry for three to five days all the way to Yongzhou. It's okay to cry, but crying consumes water and energy So, if it were me, I would swallow my emotion.  Get up, close your eyes and go to sleep." Yang Qinyan was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand to wipe away her tears.  The young woman with white eyes glanced at the scholar and asked: "Have you been thinking rationally like this since you were a child?" "Shouldn't you stay rational when thinking about problems?" "Yes, but sometimes being too rational is" The young woman with white eyes  Without saying the next words, she finally understood the difference between the young man in front of her and Fang Jie.  That guy Fang Jie seems to be calmer than anyone else most of the time, but when it comes to something that touches his heart, he is more irrational than anyone else.  If he were rational, he would not have had a tit-for-tat confrontation with the young man in front of him during the entrance examination of the Yanwu Academy and was almost crippled.  If he were rational, he would not make such a disgusting joke to the eldest princess opposite him in the secret cell of Ouchi Guards.  If he were rational, he would not stand in front of other students when facing Miaoseng Chenya in Beishan, Chang'an City, and turn around and curse, "Go away."  But when you think about it, it seems that just because that guy is like this, there are a group of people around him who are also like this and sometimes irrational.  For example, Shen Qingshan who entered the martial arts arena in anger, Mu Xiaoyao who came all the way from the northwest to see him, and Wu Daodao who abandoned the Yang family to find someone like him who had an unstable foundation.  The young woman with white eyes doesn¡¯t know how to solve the problem around herThere is also the irrational Mongolian Grand Master, the irrational Dao Zong genius Dao Zun, the irrational woman Mo Ningzhi with all 128 air points opened, the irrational Princess Wanyan Yunshu of Northern Liao  ¡­lots and lots of irrational people.  Maybe, these are two attitudes.  This young scholar uses a kind of reason to avoid the world, while that guy uses an irrational way to escape The young woman with white eyes couldn't find the right words, but one word came out involuntarily, but this word was too shocking, too  It was unbelievable and unreasonable, so she suppressed the word immediately.  Although she thought that guy was a great person, he hadn't reached such a high level yet.  In her knowledge, there are only two people worthy of this word, and even the Great Wheel King who stole a thousand years of reincarnation is not on her list.  One is Sang Luan and the other is Wan Xingchen.  She is a harsh person, even if she respects her deeply.  She has always believed that the difference between King Dalun Ming and Sang Luan and Wan Xingchen may not be in realm, but in something else.  Maharaja Mingwang can live for thousands of years, which is definitely better than Sang Luan and Wan Xingchen, but in her opinion, Maharaja Mingwang has fallen behind.  The word is Creation.  ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ Jiangnan Tonggu Academy Several people in iron armor have been pacing back and forth outside, looking anxious.  A little further away, thousands of cavalry were waiting in formation.  These generals had arrived at Tonggu Academy for half a day, but were blocked by the old gatekeeper who looked friendly but had a gloomy aura.  "We demand to see the young prince!" A general said angrily: "Even if the young prince is practicing in the academy and cannot be disturbed casually, the military situation is urgent now. If the young prince is not seen again, hundreds of thousands of troops may face crisis. The academy values ???? The young prince and we are also happy, but are the academy willing to watch hundreds of thousands of people defeated like this? If the people under the young prince's command are defeated, then the first barrier in Jiangnan will be gone." He looked very expressionless.  Poor, it looks like he is just recovering from a serious illness.  "There is no need to talk around the bush between us. The young prince has entered Tonggu Academy to practice and is willing to place hundreds of thousands of Yong Army soldiers on the south bank of the Yangtze River to serve as the first dam in the south of the Yangtze River. If this dam collapses  , It¡¯s not necessarily a good thing for Tonggu Academy, right?¡± ¡°General Ye¡± The old man Li Qingfeng, who does not want to be the dean but only wants to be the gatekeeper, smiled at General Yong Jun in front of him and said, ¡°What you said.  They all make sense, and even I, the gatekeeper, know that they are all correct. But there is one thing you said wrong I never stopped you from taking you to the young prince, and I never said that the academy was not allowed.  You are allowed to see the young prince. From the moment the young prince knelt down at the entrance of the academy, we are actually a family. " "But it's not that I don't allow you to see him today, but he said that he can't see you for the time being." "  Why can't the prince see us? " Ye Jinnan looked unkind: "If you can't give an explanation, we have reason to wonder if the young prince is under house arrest? " Li Qingfeng couldn't help laughing.  : "You don't know how happy the young prince is in the academy. I have found a master that is most suitable for him, and how harmonious and happy they get along with each other. It is a kind of thing of the same root.  The two of them are exactly the same people at their core" He didn't say the word vicious, but he knew that Ye Jinnan and the others understood it.  "Wait a moment, the young prince is in seclusion in the Broken Tower, and he will probably come out today." Li Qingfeng smiled strangely, and that smile made people shudder.  It was as if he knew something terrible was going to happen, but would never stop or intervene and just watch it happen.  Ye Jinnan looked at the smile on this man's face and suddenly felt a little tight in his heart.  "Don't worry" Li Qingfeng said with a smile: "Since I opened the door to let the young prince walk in, I will not trap him and prevent him from walking out. The reason why I agreed to let him practice in the academy is precisely because of this  It's something that's good for both you and me. What you just said is correct. Hundreds of thousands of elite Yong troops are the first barrier in Jiangnan. How could we not pay attention to them? I know that man came with troops, but you  Don't worry, Tonggu Academy has been preparing for so long, how could it not take any measures against him? ""What measures?" Ye Jinnan asked quickly.  "Just wait." Li Qingfeng did not continue the topic: "If you are tired of standing, you can sit in the yard." After saying this, heHe turned around and entered the concierge.  Ye Jinnan's expression kept changing, and he turned around and walked back: "Wait another hour. If the young prince hasn't come out after an hour, even if all the people he brought are dead, the academy will be trampled with horse hooves!  "Here!" The generals behind him nodded, but their hearts were shaking.  ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ Broken Tower The gate of the tower is closed There is a raised boulder on the cliff a few hundred meters away from the Broken Tower. There is a low table on the boulder, and on the table there is a chessboard with nineteen vertical and horizontal lines.  A young man in a white gown looked at the chessboard, frowning slightly, as if thinking about how to break the game.  He looked to be about twenty years old, with delicate features and a peach-blossom face. His eyes were narrowed and his eyelashes hung down very long and straight.  The hand holding the chess piece is clean and slender, white and weak.  The little finger is as upturned as an orchid, and the wrist is as soft as a willow branch.  No matter how you look at it, he should be an alluring woman.  But he wasn¡¯t. Sitting opposite him was Li Qingfeng, the old gatekeeper of Tonggu Academy. After sending Ye Jinnan and others away, he went to the mountain behind the Broken Tower to play chess with this young man.  Both of them were very quick at first, but after half an hour, they had to think about each word for a long time.  Li Qingfeng, who had the upper hand, looked back at the thousands of cavalry outside the mountain gate and couldn't help but smile: "Ye Jinnan is a man born for the battlefield and a good chess piece." "Where's the one inside?"  The man in white asked, but his eyes were fixed on the chessboard.  "Aren't there two in there?" Li Qingfeng smiled.  "Two?" The man in white raised his lips: "Since you let Luo Tu enter the Broken Tower and see Zhan Zhetian, only one person can come out of the tower. Don't you know this well?  " Li Qingfeng seemed to be very happy, and his eyes were lined with laughter: "I'm bored, why don't I make a bet? " "Who's going to bet?" The man in white dropped the chess piece and glanced at Broken Tower: "No need.  Bet." "Huh?" Li Qingfeng couldn't help but be surprised: "So quickly? You underestimated him." The door of the Broken Tower was pushed open from the inside, but no one came out.  The invisible tiger descending from the mountain jumped out from inside, carrying a cold and cruel aura.
