humble minister

Yan Ran stood up after writing that sentence, carried the medicine box on her back, and left before Yuniang could hold her back.

"Huh, but what did I say wrong? This guy has a big temper, bigger than me." Yao Li said angrily, but he was only joking.

"I hope this son doesn't mind, Xiaoyan has a somewhat solitary personality, so..." Yuniang didn't know that he was joking, so she quickly opened her mouth to defend Yanran.

Yao Li waved his hands indifferently, then looked at Yuniang and asked, "How, how do you feel?"

Seeing his generosity and quickness, Yu Niang no longer restrained herself. She took a deep breath and said joyfully, "Master's medical skills are really good, but after taking this bowl of medicine, he stopped coughing. Not only did he stop coughing, but he also felt relaxed and comfortable all over his body." It's a lot cooler."

"That's right, don't you look at who this young master is?!" Yao Li smiled proudly, his expression was full of confidence, and when he turned to Lian Ying to ask for praise, he saw Lian Ying's expression was serious, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he couldn't help asking: "Ah Ying, what are you thinking about?"

Lian Ying came back to his senses from this question, smiled and said, "It's nothing, I'm just curious why you think you've seen Dr. Yan somewhere."

Yao Li thought for a while, and then said: "I don't know, anyway, I think this person is very kind. Even if I didn't meet him there, I at least saw his portrait." Of course, he vaguely remembered it. There seemed to be no scars on that face, maybe he really made a mistake and he couldn't tell.

Lian Ying didn't ask any more questions after hearing this, and just kept the matter in his heart, and then said to Yuniang and Guan Xing: "It will be the New Year soon, and I sent Guan Xing back this time because I hope you, mother and son, can reunite together." Yuanyuan, have a peaceful and beautiful Spring Festival."

Guan Xing was overjoyed when he heard this, but then he thought of something and said, "What about Master? Wouldn't Master stay and celebrate the Spring Festival with us?"

Lian Ying smiled, patted Guan Xing's head, and said, "No, master won't stay. Master and your elder brother Shi Yu still have an agreement, and master will go to your elder brother Shi Yu to complete the agreement."

In fact, Lian Ying originally planned to take Guan Xing with him, because he had promised Guan Xing that he would take him to Shi Yu and let Shi Yu teach him martial arts.But now that the new year is approaching, and Yuniang and Guan Xing have been separated for half a year, it is time for them to get together.What's more, the situation in the northern border is unstable and there is still war. Taking Guan Xing who doesn't understand martial arts, Shi Yu has no time to teach him, and he himself is not safe for a child.So after thinking twice, Lian Ying decided to keep Guan Xing, but he wanted to keep the appointment.

It's just that Guan Xing doesn't know what to think about, he only knows that he doesn't want to leave Master, and he doesn't want to be with his mother during the New Year, but he also knows that he can't force Master to stay.

Although Master hadn't mentioned Brother Shi Yu much in front of him these years, he knew that Master was always thinking of Brother Shi Yu in his heart, otherwise, how could he have heard Master call "Shi Yu" in his sleep?

"Master, can't it be... can't you stay for a few days?" Even though he knew that Master's answer would be refusal, Guan Xing still had a glimmer of hope and couldn't help asking.

Lian Ying sighed in his heart, why didn't he want to stay for a few more days?It's just that although Baixia Village is located in the northern part of the Northern Dynasty, it still takes a long time to get from here to the northern frontier. Stay longer.

Hey, if he knew that he and Guan Xing would travel less in the past six months, maybe there would be more time.

Seeing Lian Ying shaking his head slowly but firmly, Guan Xing was very disappointed, but he also respected Master's decision, so he said, "Then Master, you have to be careful all the way."

Lian Ying just wanted to tell him "don't worry", when he felt his shoulders sinking, it was Yao Li who put his arms on his shoulders, and leaned his whole body up, then he heard a laughing voice in his ear and said, "Don't worry, little girl Xing Xing, I will go with your master. I will take care of your master's body along the way, so what else can you worry about?"

Although Guan Xing was very dissatisfied with the title he gave him, but he was really grateful for Yao Li's promise at this time, and finally had to express his thanks in a twisted way: "That's really thanks to my beautiful brother."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Yao Li accepted this thank you with a smile, but she turned her head to see Lian Ying staring at him blankly, which was a bit cute, and pinched his face involuntarily, "Hey, don't be so Look at me, although I know you must be extremely grateful to me at this moment."

Lian Ying's heart was full of touch, gratitude and emotion at this time, but he didn't know what it was like at this time, he just followed his words and said: "Yes, yes, I am very grateful to you. It's almost a promise."

But he didn't want Yao Li to be slightly startled when he heard this, and then smiled even brighter, almost kissing him: "Okay, okay, anyway, I'm short of a lady, in the future..."

Lian Ying pushed his head away, stopped the nonsense below him, and looked at Yuniang and Guan Xing with a blushing face, but saw that Yuniang was smiling with a clear expression, while Guan Xing remained the same. His face looked ignorant.

With a light cough, Lian Ying said slowly, "Since it is so decided, then tomorrow I will set off with Yao Li."

Yu Niang also understands Lian Ying's impatience, but she doesn't quite understand the relationship between him and the fifth prince, but she also knows that it is inconvenient to ask more questions, so she just asks: "Then I will prepare some money for the two of you tomorrow, but I don't know what your son is?" when will you be back?"

Lian Yingying didn't refuse her proposal in the first half, after all he and Yao Li really didn't have much money, as for the second half, he didn't even know, so he just said: "I don't know when it will come, But it won't be more than half a year, and I will definitely come to pick up this kid Guan Xing, he is my apprentice."

Yuniang breathed a sigh of relief when she got Lian Ying's guarantee, and Lian Ying said at this moment: "I hope that Yuniang will help me supervise Guan Xing in the past six months, so that he will not be lazy and miss his homework."

"It's natural." Yuniang agreed repeatedly, but Guan Xing was a little dissatisfied, and muttered: "Master, why don't you trust disciple? Disciple will definitely not be lazy."

"Yes, yes, our Xing'er is the most diligent." Lian Ying said a few words to comfort Guan Xing, and then the four of them divided the room and went to bed early.

After bidding farewell to Yuniang and Guan Xing early the next morning, Lian Ying and Yao Li still decided to take a carriage to the north.One is that the carriage can shelter from the wind and snow, and it can also be used as a rest place when there is no place to rest; the other is that it is for the sake of Lian Ying's body.

Although Yu Niang has done her best to prepare for the two of them, but after all, Yu Niang's daily life is not rich, so her preparation is limited. After arriving along the way, she made money by treating people along the way with Yao Li.

Stopping and walking along the way, both of them tried to speed up as much as possible.The farther you go to the north, the less peaceful the world will be, but this is also less peaceful than the inland of the Northern Dynasty. Compared with other frontiers, the northern border is already considered peaceful.

The farther north you go along the way, the colder the sky, but the more you hear about the "King of the Frontier", all of them are heroic achievements in quelling the war, and they are praised by everyone as the "Cold God of War". It can be seen that everyone Worship and worship.

On this day, the weather was rarely sunny, and the snow on the road had melted a lot, so there happened to be a post station by the roadside, so Lian Ying and Yao Li decided to get out of the car and rest for a while, so they could do some supplies.

Lian Ying just sat down at the corner of the inn, and before she had a sip of warm tea, she felt that Yao Li was looking at her strangely, and she hesitated to speak, as if she wanted to ask something but didn't know how to say it, she couldn't help but understand.

"If you have anything to ask, just ask."

In fact, the further north along the road, the more strange Yao Li's expression became. Looking at him like that, he must be very curious about his relationship with "Border King" Shi Yu, and what is the so-called agreement.It's better to let him ask it earlier now, so as to save him from being upset all the way, anyway, he will know about it sooner or later.

After Lian Ying said that, Yao Li couldn't bear it anymore, and quickly asked: "Actually, I've always been curious about the relationship between you and that Shi Yu? What is your agreement?"

【And why you have never seen such an expression when you heard about him along the way. ] He intuitively didn't ask such a question.

Lian Ying listened to his two questions and they were right as she expected, but when she wanted to answer him, she didn't know how to answer them.

relation?What's the matter?

friend?confidant?

Maybe it has to be like this, or maybe it will still be the relationship between monarch and minister in the future, but how can these few words sum it up?That's all, let's answer his second question.

"Half a year ago, I made an agreement with him: in the past six months, if he can show me that he has the ability to win the world, then I will become his aide, advise him, and compete in the Central Plains." Lian Ying smiled, slowly However, no one can doubt that he uttered such treasonous words.

Yao Li was startled when she first heard it, but she calmed down after that.As a man of the world, he didn't feel how shocking the world was, nor did he feel how whimsical Lian Ying and the "King of the Frontiers" who had never met before, not to mention Mr. Ting Yun's outstanding talent, it was only through this journey that he heard about it. The news about the King of Border Guards also knows that this person is definitely not someone in the pool.Besides, although he doesn't care about the affairs of the court, how could he, Young Master Yaoli, not know about the vague turmoil in the court?

"So you decide to fulfill this agreement now?" Yao Li was silent for a while.

"That's right, because he showed me this ability. And... I'm also stuck..." Lian Ying sighed softly, with a sad expression on his face.

Yao Li was still waiting to ask what kind of "riding a tiger is hard to get off" method, but he heard someone at a table not far from them say to his friend: "Hey, did you hear about the war between our northern border and the Northern Qiang people? "

As soon as he said this, the friends around him gave him a blank look: "Who doesn't know this? This is the biggest battle in the past six months. Let alone our northern border, everyone in the capital probably knows about it." After all, who would have thought that the little Northern Qiang clan would try to break away from our Northern Dynasty and build a new country? Don’t even look at them, our border guards alone can beat them to pieces. What the hell?! "

"You're an amateur if you say that." The man who spoke before continued in a low voice: "I heard that there is a witch in the Northern Qiang people who can do sorcery. This is not the case when the border guards led the vanguard to attack the Northern Qiang a few days ago. Is it folded inside? But I will tell you this, you must not leak it out, this is a military secret, and if it is leaked out, you will lose your head."

After the man finished speaking, his friend nodded resentfully in agreement.

The table between Yao Li and the others was really close, the man thought that his voice was not loud, but he never thought that both of them could hear it.

Hearing a crisp sound in his ear, Yao Li turned back to look at Lian Ying, but saw that when he put down the teacup, the tea cover collided with the body of the bowl, and looked at Lian Ying's complexion, but saw that the already pale complexion was even more pale now. It was white and bloodless, and even the blue veins were faintly visible, and he quickly said calmly: "What's the matter, Ah Ying? Those people may not be able to count what they say, you must not believe it!"

Lian Ying lowered his eyes, how could he not know that this was Yao Li's comforting words, but if he was not worried at all, how could it be possible?

After all, that person is...Shi Yu.

Don't worry about the cold-faced god of war, after all, the lazy author really doesn't want to think about it...
