Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Xuan is a man with strong execution ability. Within just over a month since he came to Qingshui Town, his men have already found one of the original bases of Chen Rong’s army. Although that base was just a trap and cover left by Xiangliu and Hong Jiang, finding such a place itself is already a test of one’s ability.

During this period of time, Xuan directly ignored Hao Lingyi and was almost always in a state of going out early and coming back late. The tavern used to conceal their identities was run by Lao Sang and Haitang.

At first, Hao Lingyi was not used to not seeing Xuan, but Haitang had consciously wanted to reduce the time Hao Lingyi and Xuan spent together, so she tried her best to coax Hao Lingyi and let her immerse herself in the exploration of Qingshui Town, which really helped Hao Lingyi find something to do.

Hao Lingyi is a sweet-talker and good at talking. After what happened in the past, she was taught a lesson by Xuan. Even though she felt that she was of noble birth, she still looked down on the common people in Qingshui Town who could only wear linen clothes. At least she no longer called them "untouchables".

So, Hao Lingyi also went out and wandered around all day, and soon got a lot of fun from it, and saw a different world.

It was the day when the academy was on holiday, and Jiang Xinxin also invited Shi Ying to go down the mountain for shopping. The only student left in the academy was Hao Ling Jiuyao, who was concentrating on organizing medical books. However, she did remember to pack the package she originally wanted to take back, and entrusted Qingye and Ye Shiqi to pass it to Lao Mu.

It was from Lao Mu that Qingye and Ye Shiqi learned that a very pretty and sweet-talking girl had come to Qingshui Town, and they also learned about Hao Lingyi's dark history for a bite of snack.

When Ye Shiqi heard from Lao Mu that the brother of the little girl named "Nian" was actually called "Xuan", even though he did not immediately think of this Xuan as Xiyan Wang's grandson Xiyan Xuan, but judging from the way they behaved, it was clear that their origins were not simple. Therefore, after saying goodbye to Lao Mu, Ye Shiqi could not help but instruct Qingye:

"That man named Xuan came out alone and with a little girl, which shows that his identity is not simple. Now we are involved in a lot of things, so don't forget yourself when you see that girl."

Qingye felt helpless, but he couldn't act like a senior brother in front of Xiangliu or Ye Shiqi, so he could only nod and say, "I always stay with you during holidays. Besides, we all have to go out for free medical treatment, so how can we have time to see any girl? Are you hoping that the girl will get sick?"

Ye Shiqi was too lazy to talk to Qingye, a man without any political literacy, but he admired such a pure person in his heart. He silently swore in his heart that he would protect Qingye and not let him be contaminated and harmed by those filthy people.

Sometimes, the more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen. Qingye just went out to buy breakfast, and he met Hao Lingyi who was also out.

Hao Lingyi has gotten to know Qingshui Town thoroughly over the past few days, but he hadn't waited until the day when the academy would close for the holidays, so he could only look at the academy from afar. However, the academy had all kinds of defenses, and people from outside, no matter what their cultivation level was, could only see the mountains wrapped in layers of clouds and mist.

Now she heard from her aunts and sisters that the academy had been closed for holiday and all the students were going down the mountain to play, so she got up early on purpose, ready to have a good look.

Just then, at the bun stall, the aunt selling buns saw her coming and quickly called out, "Miss Anian, come and see, this is Qingye, the first person to enter the academy, he is from our Qingshui Town!"

Qingye was already used to being pulled out by neighbors to show off. She was holding a steamed bun with two bites taken out of it. She just swallowed the food in her mouth and looked up and greeted with a smile: "Hello, hello, our Qingshui Town is becoming more and more prosperous and lively now. Miss, you can stay in Qingshui Town for a while."

It is true that Qingye is plain-looking, but as the saying goes, living in a place that nourishes one's spirit will nourish one's body. After studying in the academy for so long, this temperament has been cultivated. Moreover, he is kind and gentle by nature, and the smile on his face is sincere, which Hao Lingyi rarely sees. Therefore, Hao Lingyi rarely replied seriously: "Okay, okay, after meeting you, Mr. Qingye, I finally know that Qingshui Town is really a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery."

Qingye was still not used to such straightforward praise, and a shy look immediately appeared on his face, which made Hao Lingyi like him even more.

Such a brief contact was nothing. Qingye only thought that Hao Lingyi, who used the alias Anian, was just an ordinary tourist. Even if he stayed in Qingshui Town for a while, it had nothing to do with him.

And it was through Qingye that Hao Lingyi gained a more intuitive understanding of the academy. After all, she had seen what ordinary people in Qingshui Town were like during this period of time. And Qingye, just because he went to the academy, showed a temperament comparable to that of the young men of the aristocratic families. It can be seen that the academy is really an amazing place.

Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying, who had changed a little, came to the Lingshi Square as soon as they landed, carrying melon seeds and other nuts suitable for eating, and walked to the Lingshi Square as if they were familiar with the place.

There are many people who come here to listen to the stories told by old man Lingshi, and there are also many who are willing to share what they have heard or experienced, and there are also some who simply like this lively atmosphere and come here to join in the fun.

Shi Ying habitually took the melon seeds and pine nuts from Jiang Xinxin's hand and helped her peel them. With a smile and affection on her face, she looked at Jiang Xinxin's lively appearance looking around, and felt that the years were peaceful and quiet in her heart.

Their leisurely appearance attracted a lot of attention. At least many women couldn't help but talk about Jiang Xinxin's skills in controlling her husband and that Shi Ying was a good husband.

However, there are more reasons why Xuanxuan pays attention to Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying, two strange newcomers.

Xuan had a lot of experience, so naturally he had a good vision. Even though Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying concealed their faces and changed into fancy clothes, their temperament was always there. Xuan only made a slight guess and felt that these two should be disciples of the academy. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but approach them and talk to them.

Xuan brought a plate of melon seeds and placed it on the table in front of Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying. Seeing that he had attracted their attention, he smiled and greeted them, "Hello, I'm Xiaxuan, and I run a tavern in Qingshui Town. I used to come here every day for fun, but I've never seen you two."

Jiang Xinxin turned her head and looked at Xiyan Xuan. Although she didn't guess that he was the grandson of the King of Xiyan, but seeing that his true form was a black dragon, combined with the information given by Xiling Heng, she knew that this was Xiling Heng's adopted nephew, Haoling Jiuyao's adopted cousin, the grandson of the King Xiyan Xuan who was sent by the Kingdom of Xiyan to the Kingdom of Haoling as a hostage.

Jiang Xinxin had no interest in a political creature like Xuan, and she didn't care even though she knew that the other party must have seen through something when he came up to her.

When Jiang Xinxin didn't want to speak, Shi Ying would often speak for her. He smiled and said, "It turned out to be Boss Xuan. My wife and I don't live in Qingshui Town for long. We just like to come here occasionally. It's normal that Boss Xuan hasn't seen us before."

Unexpectedly, these two people were unwilling to even mention their names. Xuanxuan felt a little unhappy, but still had that decent smile on his face. "It turns out that you two don't live in the town. No wonder. But Qingshui Town is not close to the nearest town. I heard that the academy is on holiday these days. Could it be that you two are disciples of the academy?"

The smile on Shi Ying's face did not change at all. "Boss Xuan, you have a good eye. My wife and I are indeed both students of the academy."

Well, the topic has come to this point, and Shi Ying still has nothing to say. Even the well-mannered Xuan doesn't know how to continue the topic. For a moment, the place seems a lot quieter. Only Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying are listening to the story with great interest.
