The Love of the Red Chamber

After Lin Ruhai became the censor of Yandao, she had no time to take care of Daiyu, and Jia Min was not in good health when she was born at an advanced age.Daiyu was carried by Yinzhen most of the time.Yinzhen was reprimanded by Kangxi for studying in the south of the Yangtze River to cultivate his character. Naturally, he can't show up too much in front of people, and he is happy to be at ease.

On this day, the two returned from Hangzhou with Xueyan and two guards.Yinzhen secretly set up some properties in Hangzhou, all of which have been handed over to Bayan to take care of, and he is going to bring Daiyu back to Suzhou to celebrate Lin Ruhai's birthday.At noon, Yinzhen ordered the guards to stop and rest in the woods for a while before leaving.Although it is already autumn, the weather at noon is still hot and uncomfortable.Seeing Daiyu's red face, Yinzhen couldn't bear to continue on his way.

"Dai'er, drink some water. Take a break." Taking the sheepskin bag from the guard, Yinzhen took the small silver bowl from Xueyan, washed it, poured a bowl of water, and brought it to Daiyu's mouth.Daiyu stretched out her small hand and retreated, raised her smiling face and looked at Yinzhen's sweaty face, "Fourth brother, drink first." After spending this summer together, Daiyu already knew that Yinzhen was very afraid of heat.But he is still a person who pays great attention to appearance, no matter how hot the weather is, he is meticulous in every layer of clothes.

Knowing that she couldn't be more stubborn than her, Yinzhen didn't argue with her. He took a sip before handing it to Daiyu, who then took it and drank it.

In the small woods, the slight cool wind blowing on the body is very comfortable.Anyway, not in a hurry, Yinzhen leaned under the tree and closed his eyes to rest.Daiyu also leaned into Yinzhen's arms for a while and then fell asleep.Seeing the master resting, Xueyan and the two guards also went to one side to guard and rest for a while.

Yinzhen didn't sleep deeply. He heard some rustling sounds, and opened his eyes alertly.It didn't matter, but it was a jump.At some point, a group of snakes appeared not far in front of them.At the front is a black viper as thick as an arm, staring at Yinzhen with cold eyes, spitting out long snake letters non-stop.There is also a faint stench in the air.

Almost at the same time Yinzhen opened his eyes, the two guards and Xueyan not far away also woke up.The two guards looked confused at first, and then opened their mouths in horror when they saw the situation in front of Yinzhen, but they dared not make a sound, for fear that the snakes would suddenly attack the master if they were alarmed.Perhaps feeling the condensation and danger of the surrounding air, Daiyu moved uncomfortably in Yinzhen's arms, her long eyelashes fluttered twice and was about to open her eyes, Yinzhen immediately stretched out a hand to cover her. her eyes.Daiyu stretched out her hand to pull his big hand down, and asked a little uneasy: "Fourth brother, what's the matter?" Yinzhen confronted the black snake without moving his eyes, but said softly: "Dai'er, be good!" , close your eyes and not see."

Although he didn't understand the reason, the treatment could clearly feel the tense meaning in Yinzhen's voice, so he obediently responded and closed his eyes.Yinzhen's hand covering Daiyu's face did not let go because of this, and he still covered her eyes for fear that she would try to peek mischievously.

The group of snakes was restless and restless, as if they might pounce on and devour the person in front of them at any time.

Yinzhen remained motionless, staring at the black snake in front of him without shrinking back. He knew that as long as he was a little timid, the snakes in front of him would immediately pounce on him.At that time, it will not only be me who will suffer, but also the precious Dai'er in my arms.

The guard standing not far away stared blankly at the scene in front of him.Fourth Master, who was confronting the snake group, seemed to suddenly exude a terrifying aura, just looking at it made people feel a little overwhelmed.A guard couldn't help but rubbed his eyes. He seemed to see a faint golden light blooming from Fourth Master's body.Yinzhen stared coldly at the snake in front of him and said coldly: "I don't care if you understand it or not, get out of here immediately!" The black man seemed to shrink back in fear, but he still refused to retreat and did not attack.

A cold light flashed in Yinzhen's eyes.He was not afraid of snakes since he was a child.To be precise, he was afraid of him since he was a little snake.I remember that when he was four years old, he met a poisonous snake in the imperial garden. He was still very scared, but for some reason, the snake ran away in a hurry as if it was very afraid of him.He told the matter to the queen's mother, and the queen's mother was very angry. After all, there would never be snakes in the imperial garden, let alone poisonous snakes.He also encountered similar situations several times later.The Empress had no choice but to tell him to be careful everywhere, and never tell others that snakes are afraid of him.It was not until a concubine in the palace was thrown into the cold palace when she was nine years old and committed suicide afterwards that she never encountered this incident again.But now... these snakes are obviously still afraid of him, but they don't want to leave...

Daiyu, who was in Yinzhen's arms, moved a little uneasy, "Fourth brother... what's wrong with d? Dai'er feels uncomfortable..."

A trace of pity flashed in Yinzhen's eyes, and with his other free hand, he picked up a dead branch from the ground and threw it at the leading black snake.The dead branch was like a broken bamboo, and with the sound of a sharp wind, it shot at the black snake, but barely passed through the snake, and stared at the ground in front of it, "Get out!"

Suddenly, there was a dragon chant in the air, and a burst of purple air flashed across the sky, followed by the sound of a huge thunder.Naturally, the two guards saw it and immediately fell to their knees pale on the ground, not daring to look any further.That purple air... that is the air of an emperor.The previous snake group began to become chaotic, and gradually some snakes began to retreat and leave. In less than half a cup of tea, the snake group retreated completely.Only then did Yinzhen let go of Daiyu, and stared coldly at the two guards and Xue Yan who were kneeling on the ground, "What did you see just now?" The two guards hurriedly said, "Please forgive me for my negligence. My servant waits." Didn't see anything."

Yinzhen nodded, and looked at Xueyan coldly. Xueyan had already lost all blood from the fright of what happened just now, and hurriedly followed, "I didn't see anything." In fact, she didn't see anything.Yinzhen nodded, and said lightly: "Just remember." But the strong pressure made the three of them almost unable to lift their heads, so there was no half of indifference.Yinzhen was taught by the queen's mother since she was a child, if she wants to survive in the palace, she must never let others know that you are different from others.He always remembered this, so he was able to live safely until now after losing the protection of Er Niang in these years.

"Fourth brother, what happened? Just now?" Daiyu asked blankly.The fourth brother refused to show her just now, which made her very worried.

Yinzhen whispered: "It's okay, Dai'er, we should go." Daiyu asked suspiciously: "Is it okay? But Dai'er seemed to hear someone playing a flute." Hearing this, Yinzhen was startled, "You Hear someone playing the flute?" Daiyu thought for a while, "It doesn't seem to be a flute, and the sound is a bit weird. It seems to be far away." Yinzhen picked up Daiyu and walked to the carriage, "It must be Dai'er was wrong, and the fourth brother didn't hear it. We should go, or the husband and wife should be worried."

is that so?Daiyu saw that the fourth elder brother obviously didn't want to tell her, so she changed her mind, it doesn't matter, she can ask Xueyan.Yinzhen couldn't see her careful thinking, and cast a warning glance at Xueyan before getting into the car.Xueyan shuddered under Yinzhen's gaze, and immediately decided that no matter what, she could not tell the girl the truth.When they got into the car, one of the guards drove away, but the other stayed where he was.Said: "Guardian and little master." Then he went in the opposite direction.At the same time, several black shadows flitted and followed his direction, while the other black shadows chased the carriage of Yinzhen and others.
