"Brother, isn't this too heartless?" Nalan Yu muttered as he left the young lady's courtyard and walked behind Li Ye.
Li Ye shook his head and said: "Since the misunderstanding has gradually arisen, why bother to spend time explaining everything? Mr. Emperor will be waiting for me to go back. Soon, brother, you will also accompany me on the expedition to southern Xinjiang. How can you think about these trivial matters? ."
"Is this a trivial matter?" Nalanyu thought of Hua Tianxia and shook his head speechlessly.
The two of them chatted as they walked down the grassy slope and returned to the square of the Royal Academy.
Just when Li Ye and Nalan Yu returned to the square, Emperor Uncle Xia Yuan and Jiange Nalan Kunxuan also rushed to the square after hearing the news and were chatting with a few men in black.
Seeing Nalan Yu and Li Ye coming, the two old men looked at them.
"Junior Tianshan Sword Sect Nalan Yu has met the dean and Lord Nalan," Nalan Yu said respectfully.
"Li Ye, a junior disciple of Prajna Temple, has met Mr. Dean and Mr. Nalan." Li Ye saluted respectfully.
Xia Yuan nodded.
Nalan Kunxuan looked at Nalan Yu and scolded him: "You brat, if I hadn't come to see you, wouldn't you have dared to come to see me?"
Nalan Yu hurriedly hid behind Li Ye and said with a smile: "How could it be possible? You are the ancestor of my family."
Xia Yuan looked at Li Ye and smiled and said, "I've heard Mr. Mo talk about you a long time ago. It's really nice to see you today. No wonder the national crisis calls you back to the Central Region. Do you want me to help you arrange a night's rest and start again tomorrow? "
Nalan Kunxuan also stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes, you are worthy of being Mr. Mo's disciple. When you go to southern Xinjiang, I am optimistic about you, old man."
Li Ye looked at the two old men in front of him and felt filled with emotion. Miss Xindao can practice here, and she has made rapid progress.
In a blink of an eye, he remembered the misunderstanding just now, and shook his head and said: "This junior is just passing by here to visit his childhood friend. This has already delayed the trip. A group of us will set off immediately and try to get back to the imperial city tomorrow."
After saying this, he called the man in black to fetch the horse and prepare to set off.
Nalan Yu was pulled aside by Nalan Kunxuan and muttered for a long time. The two of them also sighed. After staying for a while, one old man and one young man returned to Xia Yuan's side.
Because Xia Yuan was not familiar with Li Ye and knew that the military situation was urgent, he did not try to persuade them to stay.
He just smiled and said: "You two are still young and both are heroes of the royal family. After this war is over, you two are welcome to come to the Royal Academy to practice. The resources here are at your disposal."
Li Ye, Nalan Yu, and both of them saluted and thanked each other, and the two of them took the war horse brought by the man in black.
He strode onto the horse's back with all his strength, crossed his hands with the two old men and said, "The younger generation will leave here. I wish the two elders great blessings and all the best!"
The second elder waved his hand and watched the group of people riding on the war horses gradually galloping towards the outside of the courtyard.
...
"Brother, you are so cruel. You didn't even say hello and just ran away!" Nalan Yu yelled.
"Since we are not happy talking, we have to leave sooner or later, so why not rush back to the imperial city as soon as possible." Li Ye replied coldly.
"you are vicious!"
"How could I be so cruel?"
"Ruthless everywhere!"
A group of iron cavalry, like a black whirlwind, left the mountain gate of the Royal Academy in an instant.
...
"How are you doing with this kid?" Xia Yuan looked at Nalan Kunxuan and smiled lightly.
Nalan Kunxuan looked up at the sky and smiled meaningfully.
"Since the Imperial Master has lived in seclusion for decades, he is willing to reopen the Imperial Master's Palace just to see this disciple, and then asked the Emperor to personally order this boy of mine to go to Fangcun Mountain to bring him back. How can you and I understand this?"
Xia Yuan was stunned when he heard this, then he laughed and said, "Are you talking about my boy's unpredictable destiny? That's right, if old men like us can see through everything at a glance, it wouldn't be fun!"
"It's just that my boy said that Shangguan Wushuang is this guy's fiancée. For some reason, there was a misunderstanding between the two words, which made this guy get angry and leave, rushing back to the imperial city."
Nalan Kunxuan stroked his beard and sighed with emotion.
"I didn't expect that this kid is also a stubborn bull. Now it's fun. It seems that there will be no peace in the imperial city. When the drama reaches its climax, we two old men will go over and join in the excitement."
Xia Yuan clapped his hands and laughed.
"Alas! The master and the apprentice are going to cook for these two boys for a while. Unexpectedly, they are already a hundred miles away."
Nalan Kunxuan sighed, turned and looked up the grassy slope.
"What should we do? Why don't you go up and tell someone quickly?"
"What should I say? That this kid is angry? Just slap his ass and leave?"
"How do I know? You can say whatever you want, but don't hurt this little girl. She is a good little girl."
"I knew you were going to point your finger at me for such a big deal."
"Who made me the dean and you the elder?"
...
While the two old men were joking, Li Ye and his cavalry had already galloped away dozens of miles like a whirlwind.
At this time, regardless of the cold wind in front of him, he just wanted to return to the imperial city as soon as possible and see his family.
Nalan Yu followed behind. He witnessed with his own eyes this guy who couldn't even climb up the war horse.
Along the way, a novice who couldn't ride a horse gradually turned into a galloping, ruthless warrior.
Yes, a warrior.
...
Halfway through the hour, Xu Jingyun, Zhang Luo, and the master and apprentice in the small courtyard were cooking, washing vegetables, and making a dinner to thank Li Ye for donating the medicine.
"Master, I'll make two more dishes in a minute. Didn't there be a pheasant yesterday?"
"Oh, I know you feel sorry for that boy. Don't worry, the master will not treat him badly."
"Master is still the best!"
"As long as you know!"
While the two were chatting and preparing, there was a knock on the wooden door of the small courtyard.
"This kid is impatient. He's looking for something to eat right now? I'm going to teach him a lesson." Xu Jingyun wiped her hands and walked out.
As he walked, he smiled and said, "I mean, little guy, will you be unable to live without my precious disciple after just a short while?"
"Bang!" With a sound, the courtyard door opened. Xu Jingyun was startled.
"Who are you calling the little guy?" Nalan Kunxuan, who was standing at the door, looked at Xu Jingyun in front of him with a dark face.
"Elder Nalan, why are you here free?" Xu Jingyun was startled.
"Why can't I come? Then tell her to come out, little girl." Nalan Kunxuan replied angrily.
Xu Jingyun quickly stepped aside and said, "Elder, please come in and have a cup of tea."
While he was talking, the young lady who heard the commotion also ran out and looked at Nalan Kunxuan in shock.
"I'm just going to say something to the little girl, and then I'll leave. You can go in and you won't have to."
Nalan Kunxuan looked at Xu Jingyun and thought, with your temper, no wonder you made that kid run away.
The young lady stepped forward to greet Nalan Kun and asked softly: "Excuse me, elder, why are you looking for Wushuang?"
Looking at the well-behaved young lady in front of him, Nalan Kunxuan felt angry but couldn't let it go. He pinched the beard on his chin and thought for a while.
He sighed softly and said: "I just want to tell you that those two boys ran away, and you, master and disciple, don't have to worry about their dinner."
"Run away? Where could he run away?" Xu Jingyun, who had not recovered, looked at Nalan Kunxuan and was stunned.
Hearing Xu Jingyun's question, the old man couldn't help but get angry.
His eyes widened and he said: "Where else can he run? Of course he is rushing back to the imperial city. There are several soldiers behind him! He rushed all the way back from the Xixuan Territory and left without even eating a meal. Entering the academy, this will let the emperor know that he must not scold me and the dean to death."
The young lady was stunned and quickly asked: "Excuse me, elder, what happened to Li Ye and Brother Nalan?"
"My boy Nalan and his party traveled thousands of miles to find Li Ye in the Xixuan Territory, and rushed back all the way. It is naturally a national event."
Looking at the little girl in front of me who was about to cry, I couldn't bear it, but thinking about the hard work of my child, I finally got a little angry.
"Alas! These two children won't be able to stay in the imperial city for more than a few days."
Xu Jingyun gradually understood and couldn't help but ask: "Where are the two of them going?"
At this time, the old man had already waved his hand and left, only to hear a sentence coming from a distance: "Of course we are going to the battlefield in southern Xinjiang! If a man is ambitious, he should gallop on the battlefield, kill the enemy and serve the country!"
A gust of cold wind blew by, and the old man was nowhere to be seen.
The young lady standing by the door fell softly into Xu Jingyun's arms again.
He murmured softly: "He was angry with me. He even refused to say hello, so he rode away. Li Ye... Li Ye..."
Xu Jingyun was also deeply shocked. She didn't expect Li Ye to be angry.
What's more, he didn't expect that this trip was actually the order of the Emperor of the Five Regions, or that the children of Elder Nalan's family personally went to the Xixuan Region to retrieve Li Ye, just for a war in the southern border.
"He actually wants to go to the battlefield! He is a young man with no cultivation level!" Xu Jingyun couldn't help but cover her mouth.
"He even refused to eat a dinner and left me..." The young lady finally couldn't help it and burst into tears again.
As fate would have it, when they reunited ten years later, they were separated again due to a misunderstanding about words.
Some things, if you miss them, you miss them.
For some people, if they miss it, it may be a lifetime.
A few days later, news came from the imperial city that Imperial Preceptor Mo Yu had retired and that Mo Yu's disciple Li Ye would be appointed Imperial Preceptor from now on. When Wei came to the Imperial Academy, not to mention Xu Jingyun, even Xia Yuan and Nalan Kunxuan It’s like being struck by lightning!
When the Imperial Master stood in front of them, he didn't even offer him a dinner.
Xu Jingyun was also struck by lightning, and the news coming from the imperial city was like thunder from the sky.
The careless boy who was a young man in Fengyun City back then was already standing in the middle of those thousands of people, receiving the respect of thousands of troops.
The young lady was also in tears all day long, speechless and choked.
...
Li Ye and his cavalry galloped rapidly, and it started to snow that night.
They rested for a night at the inn, and finally arrived at the Imperial City of the Central Region in the middle of Shenshi the next day, braving the wind and snow all the way.
Just when the city guards checked their identities, the group was about to ride into the city.
A general guarding the city recognized Nalan Yu and called out to Nalan Yu who was about to ride into the city.
Seeing an acquaintance, Nalan Yu jumped off his horse, brushed the snow off his body, and walked to the general's side. Li Ye and his party rode on their horses and hid under the city gate to avoid the cold.
I saw this general whispering in Nalanyu's ear. Nalan Yucu reached out and patted him and said: "Thank you, Lao Zhang, please treat me to a drink some other time!"
After that, he jumped on the horse and said to the man in black: "You go back to the palace to recover your life. Just tell me that Li Ye and I will go to Huamanlou for a while and go to the palace tomorrow morning to recover your life."
Foreign officials are not allowed to enter the palace at night. Nalan Yu still understands this rule.
Several men in black were the palace guards. Seeing Nalan Yu's instructions, they said goodbye to the two of them, waved their hands, and left with whips raised.
Nalan Yu looked at Li Ye's inexplicable look and explained to him with a smile: "Since the year you left, our Wujian Inn opened in the imperial city, and soon Huamanloulai also opened one here."
"No, I heard that the second prince just got engaged. Today, that girl from Hua Tianxia invited all the young talents in the imperial city to have a gathering in the garden to enjoy the snow. Our brothers also went to hang out. I haven't seen you for a long time. The world is full of flowers."
Li Ye frowned and replied in a low voice: "Will Master Hua be angry if I go without invitation?"
"Invitation? Do I, Nalanyu, still need an invitation when I'm in the imperial city? Dare Hua Xiaoniu? Let's stay for a while and then leave. I know you are in a hurry to go home, but you can't rush it at this time."
Nalan Yu rode forward, but Li Ye was speechless and had no choice but to follow behind.
The snow was getting tighter, and Li Ye put on a bamboo hat on top of his black cloak.
The two of them rode towards the imperial city on horseback.
It was windy and snowy, and there were very few people on the street.
