He had never seen such a scene before. He had only read books about sages since he was a child, and he had no power to tie the chicken, so he had to surrender. All the clothes and money on his body were stripped off, his horse was also led away, and then he was kicked off the cliff.
He Aotian's journey was smooth. He hastened forward and was already a third of the way.
He Meisheng stayed at Feng Mansion for several days. On the first day, Feng Jiandao showed up to give instructions, but he was not seen for the next two days. She practiced alone in the library, and the ladies occasionally came to see her.
She still set out for the library at Mao o'clock today. In recent days, the sunrise has gotten later and later. From a distance, you can see the shadows of candlelight swaying in the library.
Feng Jiandao was sitting in the inner room, writing with his pen.
"Come here and help me grind the ink." Feng Jiandao didn't even raise his head.
He Meisheng trotted over and sat opposite Feng Jiandao.
"You should also write a letter to the family and go home."
He Meisheng was a little surprised. Why did he suddenly mention the family letter? Maybe he wanted to inquire about her.
"Why are you living on the street alone at such a young age? If Pinghong hadn't picked you up, I'm afraid you would no longer be in this world." His words were full of reproach.
"I have nothing to write," she replied.
"Are you an orphan?"
"No." He Meisheng denied.
"Then why did you sneak out?"
He Meisheng didn't understand why he suddenly became concerned about his life experience. In order to continue to stay here, I can only make up excuses and pass them by. "My father arranged a marriage for me that I didn't like. I didn't like the girl, so she lived on the street in order to escape from the marriage."
Feng Jiandao smiled and said: "The new emperor has decreed that any marriage entered into against a woman's will can be terminated upon verification by the reporting officer. May I ask if that girl is willing to marry you?"
"I don't want to." She blurted out.
"Are you so sure?" Feng Jiandao knew that she still didn't want to tell the truth, but he could already guess 80% of the story.
"In that case, you can go home."
"You have promised to teach me martial arts. If I fail to learn martial arts, I will not leave."
"Forget it. Since you have made up your mind and I promised you before, you can learn martial arts with peace of mind. However, this book can be sent as long as the place of origin is concealed."
"Can you hide your whereabouts?" Her eyes lit up.
"I have my own way, just write it down." Feng Jiandao said, stood up and left the pavilion.
His words had a magical power that made her feel at ease. In this case, she wrote on the paper:
My brother personally opened it. Qingmei, an unfaithful child, has been away from home for a long time. She misses her mother and brother, but she has important matters and cannot come back. The road to Wu Mei Mountain is far away. Where she is now, she has a benefactor to take care of her, and everything is fine. In the past, I still remember the teachings of my mother and brother. When I return from my studies, I will definitely kowtow to apologize and serve my parents. Don't think about it, Qingmei kowtows.
She folded the letter and handed it to Feng Jiandao.
"Where to send?" Feng Jiandao asked.
"Taohua Lane, Taohua County, Peng Zexin's address." After much thought, she decided not to send it directly to her home, so she changed her name to Qingmei and sent it to Peng Zexin, presumably he would understand its intention and help pass it on to her brother.
Afterwards, Feng Jiandao asked He Meisheng to stand and check how her homework was in the past few days...
Ping Hong couldn't bear it any longer. All the informants they had placed next to the magistrate had been replaced in just a few days, and they were unable to get any information from them.
She did not find out the exact information from Murong Bo, who had hosted a banquet before, so the entertainment that day was in vain.
I just heard from Murong Bo's description that there was a family named Zhao in the capital. During that time, their business was very prosperous. They were involved in medicine, actresses, spiritual pets and other industries. They were once as rich as anyone in the country.
However, in just one night, a fire broke out in Zhao's mansion, and the family's wealth was wiped out, and they disappeared from sight.
He once had a chance encounter with Mr. Zhao back then, and could vaguely see the jade pendant he was wearing, which looked similar to what Ping Hong was wearing around his waist. However, after not seeing each other for a long time, he did not dare to make a conclusion easily.
Back then, she, her husband, Feng Jian Dao He Zi Luoyun and the other two were fighting fiercely with the ferocious beasts in the mountains every day in the old forests of Shu. One wrong move and their bodies would be exposed in the wilderness.
Who would have thought that the royal family and nobles of Daheng in the past would end up like this, with their whole families being slaughtered. Only a few babies, because of the darkness at night, were wrapped in swaddling clothes during the chaos and sent out of the house along the underground river. Finally, the master raised them into adults.
When he was ten years old, the clan leader came to Qingfeng Temple. After a few days, the master changed his old ways and threw all the teenagers into the old forest of Shu. In the darkness, they struggled with wild beasts every day. Only at night can we go back to Qingfengguan to rest. The next day at Mao time, we go back to the old forest and repeat the cycle for ten years.
Was all this done by the loving master of the past, or was it the intention of the clan leader? She still doesn't know the clan leader's real name or appearance, only the jade pendant is a token of mutual recognition between them.
From an early age, their master taught them to take the restoration of Daheng as their own responsibility, and told them their origins. The seeds of hatred were sown from an early age. But she never expected that she would be like duckweed, at the mercy of others. In those ten years, the bloody massacre made her live like a human being.
Master once said to them: "For the great cause in your heart, working your muscles and bones and starving your body is the only way."
For this reason, she worked hard for ten years. Unexpectedly, after ten years of success, her master also passed away. The clan leader took over the Qingfeng Temple with the master's suicide note, inheriting his legacy. After a few days, the Qingfeng Temple people dispersed in all directions. Pinghong and Feng Jiandao were placed in Liuxiang, waiting for good news and waiting for the opportunity.
From then on, there was no Qingfengguan in the world, and they never saw the clan leader again.
Feng Jiandao woke up from his dream and broke out in a cold sweat. Recently, he would always dream about the scene in the old forest of Shu.
After dormant for many years, his ambition for great cause has faded somewhat. Now that the world is prosperous and peaceful, it is not as bad as the clan leader and others said. If he just gives up and no longer tries to make waves, it will be a blessing for the people to live in peace, and he will not fail the world, but he will be ashamed of his dead family members.
Xuan Yi returned home to discuss with his master.
Zhao Qinghan was very satisfied with the progress of the matter. Since he had requested His Highness to go to Shu, he could go back in good faith. As for the actors, it is also time to communicate with the chess pieces they have arranged in various places. Ten years have passed, faces have changed, and people's hearts have changed. When something is broken, it is time to stand up. The old son is abandoned and the new son is raised.
"Disciple, please stay here with peace of mind. I will go back to Shu with my trusted followers. It's time for this dead game to be resurrected." Under his cuffs were two arms covered with scars, which were from the fire that year. What is left behind is always burning in his body, reminding him that he has not finished his great work and cannot let a day go by.
He still wanted to meet the old man, but he didn't know how he was living now that he was deaf and blind.
