Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

After cleaning up here, Ye Yuanxin took the initiative to boil water for a bath.

Li Yuan felt that he could not stay any longer, so he left. Before leaving, Wei Qiqi told him to go to bed early.

By the time Wei Qiqi finished washing up and she and Ye Yuanxin were wiping each other's hair, it was already dark. Candles were lit in the room. In the bright light, Wei Qiqi's hair was loose, making it difficult for Ye Yuanxin to touch her hair.

"Master, you really look like a female demon in a storybook."

Wei Qiqi smiled and raised her eyebrows, hooking her hand to signal Ye Yuanxin to come over. Ye Yuanxin, who was already tempted by the beauty, was foolishly attracted and walked over, but what he got was a big dunk from Wei Qiqi.

"master……"

"Why don't you think about your master me all day long instead of your man?" After taking her hand back, Wei Qiqi lazily leaned back on the chair.

Ye Yuanxin touched his nose, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"I'm thinking about...men." When he mentioned the word "men", his voice dropped noticeably.

Wei Qiqi sneered, "You don't even dare to say the word 'man'. Xinxinzi, you will be eaten alive by men in the future."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuanxin was not convinced and said, "Why should I be eaten alive? Besides, can't I serve you, my master, for the rest of my life?"

"Just because you are simple-minded and thin-skinned, and because you are soft-hearted and easy to bully." When Wei Qiqi said this, she was sincere.

Ever since Li Yuan entered the military camp, Ye Yuanxin and Xu Yaluo have been with her. Ye Yuanxin serves her closely, and the two are nominally master and servant, but in reality they have a sisterly relationship.

"Besides, didn't I promise you and your brother that when the time is right, I will sell you indentures and give you freedom, so you can do whatever you want in the future?"

Wei Qiqi's hands were hurting as she leaned on the back of the chair. She changed her posture, but didn't get any response from the person behind her for a long time. She turned her head and saw Ye Yuanxin crying silently.

"Why are you crying? Why are you crying while talking?" Wei Qiqi quickly pulled the person closer and asked in a soft voice.

"Don't you want me and my brother anymore? It's a good thing my brother and the others are not here, otherwise they would be finished... wuwu... cry with me."

"what?"

Wei Qiqi, who was confused, was trying hard to understand what Ye Yuanxin said. After a moment of pause, she realized what the little girl understood.

"Woooooooo..."

The little girl looks so weak and timid, how could she cry so loudly when she does?

Wei Qiqi couldn't bear to hear the howling, so she quickly stepped forward and covered her mouth.

"No, I mean, everyone has things they want to do. You may fall in love with someone, or work hard for something, but I don't want to be that obstacle."

"I'm not saying I don't want you anymore."

Ye Yuanxin's mouth was covered and she whimpered twice to indicate that she wanted to speak. Tears fell from her eyelashes, which inexplicably reminded Wei Qiqi of the way Xiaobao cried before.

"But now I just want to stay with my master. I will do whatever my master tells me to do. I will never abandon my master for a stinky man or something!"

"Okay, okay, I get it. Don't speak so loudly." Wei Qiqi was really impressed by this little girl.

She now wanted to take back what she had said before.

She was crying like howling, with tears and snot all over her face. Who could bully her?

The perfunctory tone made Ye Yuanxin even more sad, "Wuwuwu... Master, you are not sincere at all, you don't want to hear me cry..."

I watched Ye Yuanxin howling for most of the day, and finally she stopped after Wei Qiqi promised to make her something delicious.

When Ye Yuanxin made the bed, Wei Qiqi still hadn't reacted. What was going on? Why did she still have to pay for him after coaxing him for so long?

However, Ye Yuanxin's howl made Wei Qiqi feel a little worried.

I wonder how Ye Yuanjiang and Ye Yuanfeng are doing now? Will those people find out about them?

Seeing that Wei Qiqi looked unhappy, Ye Yuanxin asked with a nasal tone: "Master, are you worried about my brother and the others?"

"Don't worry. My eldest brother may seem very upright, but when he is in dire straits, he can let go of everything. My second brother is always good at dealing with people. The two of them will definitely be able to turn danger into safety."

Ye Yuanxin comforted Wei Qiqi. Seeing that she believed in Ye Yuanfeng and Ye Yuanjiang, Wei Qiqi couldn't help but believe her.

After all, there is nothing she can do now.

Inside Xuancheng.

The waning moon was hanging high in the sky, and the stars were dimly visible. Under the dim light of the stars, the sound of chaotic footsteps could be heard in the dim alley.

Ye Yuanjiang panted and ran towards the exit not far away. He was carrying someone on his back, and in the bright light, he could see that it was Ye Yuanfeng.

Ye Yuanfeng lay on Ye Yuanjiang's back. The man who used to play tricks was now quiet. A flash of silver light passed by his right shoulder blade. If someone looked closely, they would find that it was a half-broken arrow.

"Yuan Feng? Yuan Feng! Wake up!"

The cold wind of early spring rushed into Ye Yuanjiang's mouth, chilling his internal organs.

He finally reached the exit and stopped immediately when he heard some noise. He saw the large number of people guarding the slum.

I couldn't help but grab Ye Yuanfeng's thigh.

"Brother, go back and go to the Yihong Courtyard next to it."

Ye Yuanfeng woke up at some point, and he spoke weakly into Ye Yuanjiang's ear.

Ye Yuanjiang looked up and saw the brothel on the other side.

After a few breaths, Ye Yuanjiang turned and went in that direction.

Ye Yuanfeng on his back let out a dull laugh. Before Ye Yuanjiang opened his mouth to ask him what he was laughing at, there was no movement on his back again.

Ye Yuanjiang held Ye Yuanfeng tightly, his feet felt like huge stone pendants and it was difficult for him to lift even a step.

But he and the person on his back must not be discovered, so with this in mind, Ye Yuanjiang rushed to the other side again.

The brothel was not open today. The place that should have been decorated with lights was now plunged into darkness, like a huge haunted house.

Ye Yuanjiang carried Ye Yuanfeng on his back and stepped into the back door of the brothel quietly. It was quiet inside and Ye Yuanjiang could not hear a single sound.

He closed the door and walked inside.

The first floor is open to view from all directions and is not suitable for hiding people.

Ye Yuanjiang turned around and wanted to take Ye Yuanfeng to hide in the firewood room in the back house, but the door there was locked.

I had no choice but to turn around and go to the second floor.

The stairs in Yihong Building are made of wood and have been in disrepair for a long time, so they creak when you step on them.

Even the most insignificant sound on a normal day seems particularly harsh at this moment.

Ye Yuanjiang stopped on that step for a while, found that there was no movement, and then stepped up again.

Just as they stepped onto the last step, they suddenly found a woman standing in front of them, staring at them.

Ye Yuanjiang stepped back subconsciously and almost missed a step.

"you…"

"Tell me who you are? Or I'll shout."

The woman spoke calmly and confidently, and did not seem to be frightened by them.

"We...we are being hunted. Please, sister, please be kind and give us a chance to live."

Ye Yuanfeng opened his eyes again at some point, and as soon as he spoke, Ye Yuanjiang couldn't help but want to look back.

Something warm passed by in the darkness.
