ancient five-star seventh system

Chapter 47 Ruan Lingyu (26)

Time flies by, and at the end of the year, there have been two snowfalls in Yueyang City. The snow covered this ancient city, making people feel like they don't know when it will be.

Zuo Xiaole was wrapped in a thick cotton-padded jacket and sniffed. Although the snow on the street had been swept away, because it was still falling, it didn't take long for another layer to accumulate. Her cotton-padded shoes were soaked, and her feet It was so cold that she seemed to be frozen, so she could only speed up her pace, took the medicine from the pharmacy and hurried to Ruan's class.

Last night Ruan Hongyuan practiced kung fu, sweated all over, went out without any clothes, caught a cold as soon as the wind outside the door, and started coughing early this morning, Ruan Hongan asked the doctor to show him, after reading the left Xiaole followed to get the medicine. On the way back, she bought a pack of dried persimmons, which relieved the cough and were delicious.

But she didn't expect that Gu Haicheng, whom she hadn't seen for two months, would suddenly appear in her master's yard. The two were drinking tea in the small hall. Ruan Hongyuan was wrapped in a dark red cloak with a fur collar. Leaning on the chair triumphantly, the red cloak set off his face as snow-white, and he was extraordinarily handsome.The two of them spoke without saying a word.

There was charcoal burning in the house. As soon as Zuo Xiaole entered the door, he was warmed by a wave of heat. First he shook off the coldness on his body and sighed that it was so nice at home. Then he said hello to Ruan Hongyuan and Gu Haicheng, and carried the small clay stove to the stove. He added hot water to their kettle and poured himself a cup.

"Why is the commander here today? I heard that you went to suppress the bandits outside the city a few days ago. How is it? Have those bandits been wiped out?" Zuo Xiaole lifted a stool and sat next to the brazier next to Ruan Hongyuan, stretched out his feet, and baked his shoes , completely random.

Fortunately, both Gu Haicheng and Ruan Hongyuan were used to her behavior and didn't take it seriously.

"I was talking about this with your master just now, Shi Yi is dead." Gu Haicheng didn't treat Zuo Xiaole as an outsider, let alone a child.

"Ah? Shi Yi is dead?" Zuo Xiaole sat up straight in surprise.

Although Shi Yi was chased away by Gu Haicheng in the past, he was always a sword hanging above Zuo Xiaole's heart, fearing that he would suddenly make a comeback and disturb the current peace of the Ruan family's class. Unexpectedly, he died prematurely.

Zuo Xiaole thought that this was mostly related to his saving Gu Haicheng, and he didn't know what happened to Gu Haicheng in Ruan Lingyu's life. It stands to reason that Yueyang City has Zhang Wuye as the backing, so he should be able to easily accomplish what he did today. But Shi Yi didn't die until a few years later, what happened in between?
I can't figure it out, and it doesn't make much sense if I figure it out. After all, no matter what happens, it's a matter of soldiers coming to cover up the water and the earth.

"What's the commander's plan after that?" Ruan Hongyuan has already learned from Gu Haicheng that after Shi Yi escaped from Yueyang City, he organized a team outside to do all he could to rob houses. This time when Gu Haicheng went to suppress the bandits, it was Shi Yi Yi that mob.

When Zuo Xiaole heard it, he immediately felt something, and looked at Gu Haicheng, but Gu Haicheng's eyes fell on Ruan Hongyuan and did not move again, "Nowadays, the society is in turmoil, the country is in danger, the Qing government is doing nothing, and the warlords are rising, and the people are struggling to survive. ..."

Gu Haicheng talked a lot, Zuo Xiaole heard his ambition, heard his ambition, and also heard the fact that he was about to leave Yueyang City.

Ruan Hongyuan had long felt that Gu Haicheng was not a thing in the pool. After hearing what he said, she didn't say much and said straightforwardly: "When is the commander going to leave?"

"After the New Year"

"So fast?!" Zuo Xiaole was a little surprised, after all, the Chinese New Year is only half a month away.

Gu Haicheng said, "It's just that it's a bit cold on the way."

"Then where are you going?" Zuo Xiaole asked.

"South Side"

"Then will you write us a letter when you arrive?" Gu Haicheng didn't say the specific location, so Zuo Xiaole didn't ask.

"Do you want me to write to you?" It was Zuo Xiaole who asked this question, but Gu Haicheng looked more at Ruan Hongyuan.

Ruan Hongyuan lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea.

Zuo Xiaole pretended that Gu Haicheng was asking himself, "Of course! Yueyang City is only this big, so there's nothing new about it."

"Then I'll write to you when I'm free." Gu Haicheng also took a sip of tea, and several people talked again, but it was Zuo Xiaole who was talking to Gu Haicheng more.

After sending Gu Haicheng away, Zuo Xiaole couldn't help letting out a long sigh of relief when he returned to the house. Fortunately, Gu Haicheng was still reserved, otherwise she wouldn't know that if he said something inappropriate to Ruan Hongyuan directly, Ruan Hongyuan would Will you just splash him with boiling water?

At that time, I don't know if this thick thigh that she wants to hug will blow up on the spot and become the second Shi Yi in the fate of Ruan Hongyuan and Ruan's family, but fortunately, he is sent away now... …

"Why are you sighing?" Just before Zuo Xiaole entered the house and found Ruan Hongyuan, she heard a gloomy voice from behind, and she was startled.

"Master, don't be so scary by talking about it, you're almost scared out of your bloated heart..." Zuo Xiaole patted his chest and turned around, but saw Ruan Hongyuan staring at her, her cheeks were strangely red from a cold, her expression But it was ice cold, and her heart immediately thumped, and she quickly grabbed Ruan Hongyuan:
"Master, what's wrong with you?"

"..." Ruan Hongyuan looked at her with gloomy and unpredictable eyes, but Zuo Xiaole quickly understood what was going on.

As proud and intelligent as Ruan Hongyuan, how could he not know anything about Gu Haicheng's overtures and tests? Originally, he thought that Gu Haicheng and Shi Yi were different, but it turns out that how many ordinary people in the world would be indifferent to his skin?
It's just that the powerless and powerless bowed their heads to the powerful and powerful. They saw it clearly and used different methods, but wasn't the purpose all to make him submit?Ruan Hongyuan could also see clearly.

"Master, master, please calm down. The matter is not as serious as you think. Although the world is chaotic, it is not that there is no way out. They just want to do whatever they want, but if they have no money or food, How do they raise soldiers and horses?
So although we can’t recruit soldiers and horses, we can make money, a lot of money, isn’t there a saying that money can make ghosts turn the mill, we let them turn the mill for us, like a mule…”

Zuo Xiaole didn't know what she was talking about, but she just didn't want to see Ruan Hongyuan in such an embarrassing situation where she couldn't see her future. She had to divert his attention, so she said a lot .

Hearing this, Ruan Hongyuan couldn't help but think that Shi Yi and Gu Haicheng were all mules, couldn't help it, and burst out laughing.

Zuo Xiaole's dream of letting herself go was interrupted by Ruan Hongyuan's laughter. She suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling at peace...
