On that day, the news that Lord Song, the cold-faced commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, walked out of the Northern Pacification Office holding his wife's hand quickly spread to all his colleagues.

It is said that the rumor is like this: Commander Song, who is usually steady, had his mouth corners flying to both sides, pressing the left side and tilting the right side, pressing the right side and tilting the left side, the hand with ten fingers clasped together was very stable, but the other hand was shaking, and he even tripped over himself when he went out... like a fool. The final summary statement was not made by the subordinates of the Northern Pacification Division. Even if they thought so, they did not dare to summarize it so bluntly.

When these words reached Minister Wen's ears, the usually steady Minister's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably, then he put his fist to his lips and coughed, then turned around and instructed his confidant, "Please take care of the letter to the Song family and deliver it in person."

The confidant bowed and said yes. After a while, he said, "The eldest young master has told me to give him the invitation from the Song family and he will go there in person."

Wen Changling looked up from the desk, thought for a moment, and nodded in agreement, "Then let him be." The Wen family has few descendants, and the three children each have their own mothers, so it is normal that they are not very close. This son is in an awkward position, and what people say outside is somewhat unpleasant. As a boy, he should have his own opinions and abilities. Pei Ji didn't mention it himself, and Wen Changling didn't ask. He seldom came back in recent years, and when he came back, he always seemed a lot more unfamiliar, so much so that now he can't quite see through him.

Seeing that the brother and sister were still getting along well, I just let him go. Children have their own paths to follow, and it doesn't matter if they fall a few times while I still have the ability to give them a hand.

Not long after lunch, Xu Chengjin came to Luofeng Pavilion with a few enlightenment-level medical books. At that time, there was a lot of banging in the Qichi Pavilion across the wall. He didn't go around, but went straight into the yard and looked around. He found Yuan Ge half asleep and squinting in the corridor, holding the dog. The two brothers had a good relationship and asked casually, "What's going on? Is Song Wenyuan destroying the house?"

Yuan Ge sighed helplessly, without saying anything, and his expression was somewhat world-weary. Picking up Yin on the side laughed and explained, "It was said that the yard was too empty, so they planted two osmanthus trees. Now... Miss was taking a nap, and she was woken up again, and she is upset."

"Where did this puppy come from?" Xu Chengjin smiled, put the medical book in his hand on the coffee table beside him, and reached out to touch the dog.

Miss Yuan was still a little confused and didn't notice that Master Xu's attitude towards her was completely different from the past. She slapped him casually, "What a bastard, my Wen Xiaobai!" After the slap, Yuan Ge woke up, smiled awkwardly and sat up, and began to make up for the loss, "Master Xu, what did Master Xu say just now? Oh, right, dog... Master Song's, if you like it, borrow it to play with for a few days."

Song Ziyao's, I borrowed it for a few days and it took your last name? He was so perfunctory... Master Xu was too lazy to respond and rolled his eyes lazily.

Yuan Ge said seriously, "Mr. Xu, are you here to look for your husband? If so, you should go to Qichi Pavilion. Why did you come to my Luofeng Pavilion?"

"I'm not looking for him, I'm looking for you." Xu Chengjin shook the back of his hand which was obviously red, thinking that no matter what kind of appearance this damn girl had, her annoying heart had not changed at all, just like a bad-tempered cat, which would give you a claw out of the blue and hurt you.

He handed the medical enlightenment books to Yuan Ge and explained in a serious and selfless manner, "It's like this, I met Aunt Gui before and saw Miss Wen's medicinal tea recipe. I felt that Miss Wen was very talented, but she didn't have a famous teacher to guide her. I couldn't bear to see such a talented person die, so I came here to take her as my apprentice. I am willing to teach her carefully and give her everything I know."

Yuan Ge's eyes lightly fell on those enlightenment books that were too childish for her. She raised her eyelids to meet the other person's gaze, and they exchanged a tacit look. After years of tacit understanding, Yuan Ge knew that her secret was no longer a secret, but she also knew the other party's intentions and wishful thinking.

Firstly, it was really to help her, so that the matter of "Wen Qian is proficient in medicine" would become particularly natural. Secondly, it was selfish. This kid... was waiting for her to call him mentor.

Tsk.

"No." She refused bluntly, "I have a mentor. My teacher is Yuan Ge from Zhixuan Mountain. I'm afraid Master Xu will be disappointed. Of course, I also thank Master Xu for his kindness."

"Yuan Ge is dead." Xu Chengjin reminded lazily. This was the first time he said this so calmly, even with some sarcasm in his voice, "When did you become a master and a disciple? How come I never knew about Yuan Ge when I was so familiar with him? Could it be that he accepted him as a disciple after his death? How could I teach you? Should I send you a dream?" There was a period of time when he was looking forward to her coming to him in his dreams every day. He didn't expect that she was still alive and well, and was laughing at him right under his nose. When Xu Chengjin thought of this, he felt an itch in the back of his teeth - shameful!

You are the dead one! This guy pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth. Yuan Ge was too lazy to argue with him, "Anyway, I can't take you as my master. A disciple should not take two masters."

A disciple should not worship two masters? Did the old man know that you worshipped yourself as your master? Xu Chengjin rolled his eyes again, but he was more serious. "I heard about Ding Shengcai's story. The secret technique of the witch doctor clan can scare Ding Shengcai in private, but if you put it on the table as testimony in court, how can you convince people?" How can you explain to them that you, a girl who never goes out of the house, know things that these old doctors in the imperial hospital don't know? Just relying on a dead Yuan Ge?

He didn't ask the following question.

It's one thing to keep it tacit, but it's another to bring it out in the open... Once you open up, the topic of death cannot be avoided. He is like a snail cautiously exploring the way forward, but as soon as its tentacles touch those topics, it suddenly retracts and remains motionless.

Xu Chengjin leaned against the wooden railing, stood with his arms folded, lowered his eyes to look at the unfamiliar girl in the recliner, and called out gently, "Wen Qian..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a rumbling sound in front of him, and dust was everywhere, shaking the earth. Wen Xiaobai was so scared that his hair stood on end, and he almost hurriedly climbed out of Yuan Ge's arms. His legs were short, so he fell directly to the ground. Driven by the instinct of survival, he didn't stop at all, and fled while falling...

Yuan Ge stared at the scene in astonishment, veins on his forehead throbbing. He gritted his teeth and roared at his equally dusty brother who had walked out of the dust, "So... what on earth is Song, Wen, Yuan, doing?!"

The wall between Qichi Pavilion and Luofengxuan collapsed.
