Li Ran heard what Yan Yan said, but didn't say anything.
Then the three of them looked at Gong Eryue.
I saw Gong Eryue over there at this time, dancing gracefully. The exquisiteness of his swordsmanship is also extremely pleasing to the eye.
Li Ran couldn't help but feel a little crazy for a moment. Suddenly, he seemed to see the sacrificial music dancing under the moonlight in the Zheng Kingdom.
At this time, Chu Dang could only be heard saying in a confused way:
"I don't know where this lady learned the sword moves, but within a few months, she has become so powerful!"
Chu Dang's call brought Li Ran back to his senses.
"Sir, look, when it comes to Gong Eryue, her swordsmanship... why is there a faint delicacy instead of murderous aura? The more powerful people are, the more important it is to practice swordsmanship. . But Gong Eryue, although she has mastered the sword style, has no murderous intent at all. And... no matter how smart this woman is, it is really amazing that she can have such a photographic memory!"
Just as Yan Yan was speaking, Gong Eryue's figure was seen darting away and swinging far away. The sword in his hand pulled out several more sword flowers. At the same time, one of them landed on the ground and jumped over again, directly to Li Ran and Yan Yan. around.
When Gong Eryue heard the talented people behind her cheering, she was so proud that she swung her long sword and directly swept off Li Ran's crown.
Li Ran was not on guard against Gong Eryue, so he was picked up by Gong Eryue with a sword and his hair was disheveled.
Chu Dang was startled and rushed forward, but stopped midway.
"No, no, this is Madam. How could Madam harm Sir?"
Gong Eryue was shocked when she saw this. He quickly put away his sword and stood there straight, like a child who had made a mistake.
Although Li Ran had his crown cut off and his hair was disheveled, he actually looked the calmest.
Li Ran didn't say much, and subconsciously stretched out his right hand, intending to stop Chu Dang. On the contrary, he was afraid that Chu Dang would do something drastic.
Gong Eryue was embarrassed and could only curl her lips and say:
"You...why are you like a wooden stake? You don't know how to hide when the sword comes? If someone else had any bad intentions, I'm afraid even your head would be lost!"
I never thought that Gong Eryue would "report the evil first".
Li Ran couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and sneered again:
"Haha, there are no outsiders here, so I have relaxed my guard a little. Besides, Miss Yue's swordsmanship is superb. Even if I can react, I can't avoid it, right?"
Seeing Li Ran say this, Gong Eryue felt embarrassed, while Chu Dang said from the side:
"Husband...Miss Yue, it's not good for you to talk to your husband like this. You should have more respect for him!"
Gong Eryue glanced sideways at Chu Dan.
"I...I didn't do it unintentionally! At worst, I'll just punish myself by copying books here!"
When Yan Yan heard this, he couldn't help but hurriedly said:
"No, no, Miss Yue did it unintentionally. It's okay to change it if you know it. Sir... do you think so or not?"
Yan Yan's words were naturally meant for Li Ran to hear. Although on the surface he meant that he thought Gong Eryue was troublesome, in fact, it was a step down for everyone.
"Well, what Ziyou said makes sense. They are all members of our own family, so there is no need to be so above-the-line."
Later, Yan Yan accompanied Li Ran for a walk around the Xinglin. Seeing that the order in the Xinglin was as usual, he felt relieved.
Li Ran said goodbye to Yan Yan, called Gong Eryue, and left.
…
Li Ran and Gong Eryue walked side by side, and Chu Dang followed behind. The two were speechless for a while. After a while, Li Ran finally spoke:
"Miss Yue, you cited scriptures before and your words were very clear and logical. Could it be that you really learned them all now?"
Gong Eryue thought for a while and replied:
"Actually...even I don't know if I have really learned it before. It seems that I have heard the words that the speaker said before, and I can't remember where I heard them. of."
Li Ran glanced sideways and said:
"Oh? Could it be that the girl also learned these things when she was in Yue Kingdom?"
Gong Eryue said calmly:
"This is impossible. We Yue people have never practiced rituals and music. These preaching words are painful to read. How can we Yue people say these things?"
Gongeryue is the daughter of the Gonger clan of the Yue Kingdom. The Yue Kingdom itself does not like the so-called rules and regulations of etiquette, let alone the tribe to which it belongs.
"Oh? If you say so, this can be considered a strange story."
Li Ran didn't think much about it. It happened that at this time, I found two beggars on the roadside. They were a woman and a child. They were dressed in tatters. The woman looked about thirty or forty years old, but the child was only six or seven years old.
Li Ran couldn't help but stop when he saw them.
Maybe it's because he hasn't been out for too long. I don't know, but there are so many destitute people in the Lu country now.
Even in the suburbs of Lu State, you can encounter people begging for food.
Li Ran instinctively touched his sleeves. Seeing this, Gong Eryue stopped him:
"Do you want to give them money?"
Li Ran said:
"Exactly, but what's wrong with it?"
Gong Eryue couldn't help but shook her head and said:
"They certainly look pitiful, but it's unclear whether the same is true at home. Moreover, how much can you give them? If you really want to help the poor, you can't do it like this!"
Li Ran narrowed his eyes and asked with interest:
"Oh? How to deal with it?"
"Let's go to their home and find out!"
Li Ran couldn't help but feel a little interested when he heard what she said. And since I have nothing to do at the moment, it doesn't matter if I delay this matter a little.
Therefore, Li Ran agreed very readily.
I saw Gong Eryue coming to the pair of beggars, bending down, and asking for details. After a conversation, I learned the reason.
It turned out that the former Fan Yanghu obeyed the orders of the Jin State and led the three Huan divisions of the Lu State to conquer Zheng with one hundred thousand troops.
Since it was spring plowing, the originally planned one-month war was delayed for two months for no reason. This resulted in their family directly missing the spring plowing time.
What's more terrible is that the pillar of their family was actually captured by the Zheng people. Therefore, their family not only has no income this year, but also cannot work hard to survive.
Therefore, if the two of them did not come out to beg, they would almost starve to death.
Li Ran couldn't help but feel sad after hearing this, and then nodded with deep understanding.
Afterwards, the woman and the child took them back home, only to see that the four walls of their home were bare and in dilapidated condition.
Gong Eryue looked up at the hole in the roof and said:
"Look, even with the few coins you give them, they won't be able to repair this house after all!"
Li Ran nodded.
"That's true. Miss Yue is the one who considers Zhou Xiang."
Gong Eryue looked around for a while, then called to Chu Dang:
"Chu Dang, follow me outside to make some mud, and work with me to patch up the hole."
When Chu Dang heard the order from "Madam", he only responded and immediately went outside.
