The storm has passed, but the sea is not really calm.The big ship in Baiyun City was swaying, being pushed up and down by the waves, and the leaf flag on the mast was fluttering in the wind.The sun was still blocked by a thin layer of gray clouds, and the light also had a layer of gray, sprinkled on the same gray-blue sea water.
Such weather inevitably makes people feel depressed, but the cabin is another scene.Although the boats in Baiyun City are big, they are much simpler than the boats used by real dignitaries.There are no exquisite carvings in the cabin, no tables and chairs with golden lacquer borders, no silk and satin, and no incense.It is bright and clean, simple and transparent, full of fresh sea air.
And in such an environment, Li Xunhuan sat relaxed at the table, washing and straining tea with a pair of jade-white hands, his movements flowing like a dance.His posture is leisurely, with a smile on his face. Compared with a vagabond, at this moment, he is more like a scholarly nobleman. His elegant demeanor makes the simple cabin appear unusually noble.
Ye Gucheng quietly watched his movements beside him.Li Xunhuan's hands seemed particularly attractive, and Li Xunhuan's whole person was so different that Ye Gucheng couldn't take his eyes off him.Lu Xiaofeng was sitting opposite, trying to say something to break the sticky atmosphere in the cabin several times, but without success.
Why can there be such an atmosphere between two men?Especially these two people are Li Xunhuan and Ye Gucheng!
A cup of tea is pushed in front of him.Lu Xiaofeng seemed to wake up with a start, Li Xunhuan just gave him a strange look, and handed another cup of tea to Ye Gucheng.Lu Xiaofeng's eyes followed the cup of tea, Ye Gucheng lowered his eyelashes and savored it quietly. If he didn't clearly know that Baiyun City Lord was never a refined person, he might really think he was drinking tea...Of course, maybe Ye Gucheng What Gucheng tastes is not the tea itself, but the tea maker.
Before today, it's not that Lu Xiaofeng didn't realize that Ye Gucheng and Li Xunhuan got along too closely, and it wasn't that he didn't hear the rumors in Jianghu, he just didn't take it seriously.In his opinion, it is normal for brothers and friends to be close, so what if Li Xunhuan and Ye Gucheng share a room?Doesn't he and Hua Manlou live together sometimes?However, the fact is that the rumors in the world are all because these two people have nothing to hide, no one misunderstands the relationship between them, but it's okay for me to misunderstand them all the time.
The big boat swayed with the waves, Lu Xiaofeng's heart also went into a trance.He recalled Ye Gucheng who was angry because of Li Xunhuan in Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion, maybe from then on, he should pay attention to the relationship between them.
The sea breeze pushed the big ship all the way to the port outside Baiyun City.The deck became lively, the sailors were busy anchoring and furling the sails, and the townspeople were busy packing their things and getting ready to disembark.Ye Gucheng and Li Xunhuan were not in a hurry, they waited for the boat to stop before getting up.
"Aren't you going to Baiyun City?" Ye Gucheng walked to the door of the cabin, turned around and looked at Lu Xiaofeng who was still sitting there in a daze, and the other party suddenly got up after hearing his voice.
Li Xun Huan smiled, pushed open the door, and let the noisy wind blow in from outside, blowing on Lu Xiaofeng's silly face: "Wake up, get off the boat! We've arrived."
Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly followed them out of the cabin, looking around, the big ship looked small in front of the majestic walls of Baiyun City, the sky was still covered by thin leaden gray clouds, and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds, a few strands of light gold, like someone in the sky. The cloud is torn apart.Some of those golden colors are sprinkled on the hidden turbulent waves, and some are sprinkled on the ancient mottled city walls, bringing the warmth that will never disappear in the south all year round.
On the pier, the people from the City Lord's Mansion had been waiting for a long time, Lu Xiaofeng looked down from the boat, the old man in the lead was definitely Ye Yi.Lu Xiaofeng also knew the other two young people, Ye Er and Ye San, especially Ye San, when he first came here he almost thought that guy was dumb.
Ye Gucheng and Li Xunhuan were already disembarking, Lu Xiaofeng didn't go after them, he just jumped off the deck and landed firmly in front of everyone in the City Lord's Mansion.Ye Yi was very surprised to see him: "Mr. Lu?"
Lu Xiaofeng laughed: "What's your expression? Didn't I say I would come back when I left last time?"
Of course Ye Yi would not say that, such words would usually be regarded as routine politeness, and no one would take it seriously.And don't take it seriously, he didn't even remember if Lu Xiaofeng really said such a thing at that time.Ye Yi just gave a very natural smile: "It's been a long time since we've seen each other so suddenly, Mr. Lu didn't say hello in advance, so we should get ready."
Lu Xiaofeng waved his hand: "What are you going to do, I just need a room to sleep in."
Ye Gucheng and Li Xunhuan had also got off the boat at this time, upon hearing Lu Xiaofeng's words, Ye Gucheng asked, "Is the room where Xunhuan lived before still available?"
Ye Yi immediately said: "Keep it, keep it forever."
Ye Gucheng: "That happens to be for Lu Xiaofeng to live in."
Ye Yi was taken aback: "But Li Tanhua..."
Ye Gucheng: "Xunhuan naturally lives with me."
Ye Yi: "..."
What is "nature lives with me"?You went around the Central Plains together, and when you came back, you said you wanted to sleep under a quilt. How natural is it!
However, Ye Gucheng got into the carriage after finishing what he should say, and Li Xunhuan didn't seem to have any objection, he simply greeted everyone and got into the carriage.Ye Yi turned to look at Ye Er and Ye San. As a result, one of them looked into the distance, and the other had "Didn't I say that long ago" written all over his face.Ye Yi finally had to face the fact that the city lord gossip that he always thought was a rumor turned out to be true.
The carriage moved forward slowly, and the others followed on horseback.Ye Yiqi was walking slowly, gradually falling behind, still thinking about his own city lord's emotional problems.His expression was so exciting, Lu Xiaofeng felt quite empathetic, and slowed down to stand side by side with him: "Surprised, isn't it?"
Ye Yi had mixed feelings: "I thought the city lord only had swords in his heart. I have even found ten children of suitable age, and I plan to recommend them to the city lord to adopt as adopted sons."
"Who doesn't think so?" Lu Xiaofeng said with emotion: "But your plan can continue, anyway, it seems that even if he has more than a sword in his heart, he will still need an adopted son sooner or later."
They walked through the hustle and bustle of the city, and when they returned to the City Lord's Mansion, everyone in the mansion was already waiting at the door.It was the first time Ye Gucheng had been away from Baiyun City for so long, and everyone missed him very much.The figure of the city lord practicing sword is gone by the sea, and I always feel that something is missing.
Lin Shiyin was also among these people.Ever since she came to Baiyun City, Ye Yi arranged for her to live in the City Lord's Mansion. She should have lived a good life during this period, and her face seemed to be rounded.Li Xun Huan looked her up and down carefully, and found that not only her face was round, but also the tone of her poem had changed in many places compared to when they parted.She has completely lost the restraint of a big lady in the past, her eyes are bright and smiling, she is particularly flying and confident, and the past events have not left her the slightest haze.It seems that her choice of coming to Baiyun City couldn't be more correct.
"I've heard a lot of stories about you here." Lin Shiyin walked forward with a smile: "At first I thought you would come back soon, but I didn't expect that it would take half a year."
Li Xun Huan smiled, "It's not our fault."
Lin Shiyin: "I don't blame City Lord Ye, but you. If you didn't bring Long Xiaoyun to Li Garden, how could there be so many things."
Li Xun Huan sighed, then laughed again, and said freely, "Without him, how would I have come to Baiyun City?"
"That's right." Lin Shiyin didn't know what to think of as she said, and she also smiled happily, her eyes were crooked, and there was a sense of happiness all over her body.Li Xunhuan grew up with her, and it was the first time she saw her smiling like this, he couldn't help being surprised, but Lin Shiyin didn't give him a chance to ask questions, and turned around and led them to the mansion: "Come on, I heard that Your ship arrives today, and I have specially made a table of delicious food!"
Li Xunhuan followed into the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and the familiar plants and trees in the mansion came into view. Lin Shiyin's voice seemed to be far away at this moment. The familiar environment made Li Xunhuan feel in a trance, and finally felt like going home.He felt a hand being gently held, and when he turned around, he saw Ye Gucheng staring at him with his head down, and there was obvious joy and concern in his eyes.
Li Xun Huan smiled and shook that hand back vigorously, the two of them held each other like this, and walked in front of all the subordinates of the City Lord's Mansion.
Lu Xiaofeng had already sat at the dining table first, and he had already eaten when Li Xunhuan and Ye Gucheng entered the room.
"Is there no food for you on board?" Li Xun Huan shook his head and laughed when he saw him.
"It's Tanhualang's cousin who is good at cooking." Lu Xiaofeng looked around with a smile: "Where is Miss Lin?"
Li Xunhuan didn't notice when Lin Shiyin left secretly, but when he was wondering, the maid replied: "Miss Lin has gone out."
"Out?" Li Xun Huan became interested: "Where is she going?"
Maid: "Miss Lin has to go to Baiyun Academy every day, and she has already lost her time to cook today."
"What is she going to the academy for?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.Li Xunhuan and Ye Gucheng were also waiting for the answer, but how did the maid know what Lin Shiyin was doing every day, so naturally she couldn't say anything.
Lu Xiaofeng bit his chopsticks and smiled: "Tan Hua Lang, your cousin won't want to learn from Zhu Yingtai and dress up as a man to go to school, right?"
Li Xun Huan shook his head: "Shiyin won't do that."
Ye Gucheng: "Not in the past, but not necessarily now."
Li Xunhuan had already seen how much Lin Shiyin had changed. After hesitating for a moment, he realized that he really couldn't rest assured, so he said, "Why don't we go to Baiyun Academy for a while?"
Ye Gucheng naturally agreed, while Lu Xiaofeng said that although the food made by Miss Lin was delicious, but he finally came to Baiyun City again, he wanted to have a good time, and such things as following the little girl were not welcome.
Lu Xiaofeng went out happily.Ye Gucheng and Li Xunhuan headed towards Baiyun Academy, but they realized halfway that they just walked there in such an upright way, that the people inside might have heard about it before they reached the gate of Baiyun Academy.If Lin Shiyin knew that they were coming here, she might not let them find out anything and would be angry.
After the storm, the street was bustling, Li Xunhuan looked around, pulled Ye Gucheng around the crowd, and walked to an inconspicuous alley.
"To go to Baiyun Academy, you must take the main road." Ye Gucheng reminded.
"Students and gentlemen, as well as guests like you and me, of course have to take the main road." Li Xunhuan pulled him to continue walking, through a narrow alley, across an unlocked broken door, and onto a winding, Potholed path: "This leads to the back door of the academy. The donkey carts and sweeping servants who deliver the goods all go from here."
Ye Gucheng had never heard of a winding path here, until he was dragged by Li Xunhuan, and he really came all the way to the back door of the academy before he asked, "How do you know this path?"
Li Xunhuan lowered his head and fiddled with the brass lock on the back door, and smiled: "I heard Ye Er mention it the last time I came here, and no one is more familiar with every road in Baiyun City than him."
Ye Gucheng looked at him, still wondering how he could pick the lock even if he was a Tanhua, but he fiddled with it for a long time, but the copper lock didn't respond at all, and finally they gave up going through the door and went directly over the wall.
It seemed that with Li Xunhuan by his side, climbing over the wall became a common thing.Ye Gucheng thought it was funny, but before he realized what happened, Li Xunhuan had already dragged him to hide behind a bush.
Not far from them, a few young scholars walked slowly chatting, passing by where they were standing just now.
"Did you see it? That girl is here again." A young man said, Li Xunhuan heard him mention the girl, and guessed it might be Lin Shiyin.
Sure enough, another person went on to say: "That girl seems to be surnamed Lin, right? And she lives in the city lord's mansion. I don't know if she has something to do with the city lord."
The third person was surprised: "You don't know! That girl is the famous Lin Shiyin!"
It is a bit too much to say that he is famous, but Lin Shiyin's name is indeed familiar to most people who are interested in Jianghu affairs.It was she who provoked the grievances between Li Xunhuan and the sworn brother. When Ye Gucheng and Li Xunhuan got into various troubles in the Central Plains, her name was also widely spread.Although later things have proved that the controversy about her is nothing more than Long Xiaoyun's fabrication.
The third person said with emotion: "She is Li Xunhuan's cousin, and Li Xunhuan has an unusual relationship with our city lord. Isn't it normal to live in the city lord's mansion? I'm more surprised that she would like our husband than where she lives."
"What? Which gentleman are you talking about?" The other two almost broke their voices in shock.They all secretly fantasized about going after Lin Shiyin, but it turned out that he already had a goal.
"Stupid! Who else could it be? Mr. Zhao who has a grandson? Or Mr. Wang who has a grandson? Of course it is the young and handsome Mr. Zhou!"
Several young people gradually walked away, and Li Xunhuan could still hear them discussing which year Mr. Zhou was a Jinshi, and who came to Baiyun City because he offended someone.He was still squatting behind the bushes at this time, Ye Gucheng was squatting next to him, seeing that he was frowning and not speaking, he stretched out a finger to poke his cheek: "What now?"
Li Xunhuan stood up and walked towards the direction the three students came from: "Now go and see who that Mr. Zhou is."
The Mr. Zhou mentioned by the three students is the youngest teacher in Baiyun Academy, named Zhou Pei. Because of his handsome appearance, gentle and polite personality, he is very popular with the girls in Baiyun City.Lin Shiyin liked Li Xunhuan before, but mistakenly took the prodigal son for a handsome scholar, now Zhou Pei finally satisfied all her fantasies about the other half, no wonder she has to come to him every day.
Li Xunhuan and Ye Gucheng searched around quietly, and finally found Zhou Pei in a simple small courtyard, where Lin Shiyin was also watching him write.The man looked a little thin, but he was indeed handsome. He was taller than ordinary scholars, and he was dressed in clean clothes.Looking at the pen and ink on his desk, although it is not enough for a scholar like Li Xunhuan, but he is more particular than most scholars.
Li Xunhuan thought his handwriting was well-behaved, but Lin Shiyin liked it very much, and praised him sincerely.Zhou Pei seemed embarrassed by the praise. Lin Shiyin didn't know what he had said to him, and he laughed again. Then they entered the room hand in hand, and the door was closed from the inside.
"Blue sky and white sun, why close the door?" Li Xunhuan dissatisfied, and pulled Ye Gucheng to leave the academy together.
Ye Gucheng looked at him: "This Zhou Pei is not bad." The man Lin Shiyin found himself was much better than Long Xiaoyun.
However, Li Xun Huan just kept silent and only sighed when they returned to the street.
Ye Gucheng: "What's wrong?"
Li Xunhuan looked at his perennially indifferent face with doubts, and squeezed his hands in a strange way: "Do you understand the feeling of marrying a younger sister?"
Ye Gucheng grabbed his troublesome hand and shook his head: "Since Zhou Pei is not bad, I thought you should be happy."
Li Xun Huan sighed again: "I'm happy, of course I'm happy, but I'm not just happy."
Ye Gucheng thought for a while and said, "You can't protect her forever. She is your cousin, but sooner or later she will have her own life."
Li Xun Huan looked up at the sky: "Of course I understand, but..." But what, he couldn't tell for a while.After the Li family's parents passed away, he and Lin Shiyin were each other's only relatives.Therefore, from the past to the present, no matter what his relationship with Lin Shiyin was, he never thought that one day Lin Shiyin would no longer need him.
Ye Gucheng looked at him and stopped suddenly.Li Xun Huan was pulled to a stop and turned around in doubt.Ye Gucheng obviously still couldn't understand his thoughts, but he didn't ask any more questions, just hugged him in his arms, patted his back comfortingly, and kissed his cheek.
This is still on the street!Li Xunhuan was hugged foolishly, and heard Ye Gucheng whispering in his ear to persuade him not to be sad.
Li Xunhuan wanted to say that he wasn't sad, that Lin Shiyin found someone he liked, and he was happy for her, but... well, it was the feeling that the cabbage that he raised at home was smashed by a pig.
But being hugged by Ye Gucheng like this, the mood seems to be much better.Li Xunhuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and hugged Ye Gucheng forcefully, and dragged him home together.
The author has something to say: During the period, I voted for the overlord or the little angel who irrigated the nutrient solution~
Thanks to the little angel who threw the mine: 1 Chuyu;
Thanks to the little angels who irrigate the nutrient solution: 4 bottles of Lost Demon Cat; 1 bottle of Wu Ze;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Such weather inevitably makes people feel depressed, but the cabin is another scene.Although the boats in Baiyun City are big, they are much simpler than the boats used by real dignitaries.There are no exquisite carvings in the cabin, no tables and chairs with golden lacquer borders, no silk and satin, and no incense.It is bright and clean, simple and transparent, full of fresh sea air.
And in such an environment, Li Xunhuan sat relaxed at the table, washing and straining tea with a pair of jade-white hands, his movements flowing like a dance.His posture is leisurely, with a smile on his face. Compared with a vagabond, at this moment, he is more like a scholarly nobleman. His elegant demeanor makes the simple cabin appear unusually noble.

The sea breeze pushed the big ship all the way to the port outside Baiyun City.The deck became lively, the sailors were busy anchoring and furling the sails, and the townspeople were busy packing their things and getting ready to disembark.Ye Gucheng and Li Xunhuan were not in a hurry, they waited for the boat to stop before getting up.
"Aren't you going to Baiyun City?" Ye Gucheng walked to the door of the cabin, turned around and looked at Lu Xiaofeng who was still sitting there in a daze, and the other party suddenly got up after hearing his voice.

Because of his handsome appearance, gentle and polite personality, he is very popular with the girls in Baiyun City.Lin Shiyin liked Li Xunhuan before, but mistakenly took the prodigal son for a handsome scholar, now Zhou Pei finally satisfied all her fantasies about the other half, no wonder she has to come to him every day.
Li Xunhuan and Ye Gucheng searched around quietly, and finally found Zhou Pei in a simple small courtyard, where Lin Shiyin was also watching him write.The man looked a little thin, but he was indeed handsome. He was taller than ordinary scholars, and he was dressed in clean clothes.Looking at the pen and ink on his desk, although it is not enough for a scholar like Li Xunhuan, but he is more particular than most scholars.
Li Xunhuan thought his handwriting was well-behaved, but Lin Shiyin liked it very much, and praised him sincerely.Zhou Pei seemed embarrassed by the praise. Lin Shiyin didn't know what he had said to him, and he laughed again. Then they entered the room hand in hand, and the door was closed from the inside.
"Blue sky and white sun, why close the door?" Li Xunhuan dissatisfied, and pulled Ye Gucheng to leave the academy together.
Ye Gucheng looked at him: "This Zhou Pei is not bad." The man Lin Shiyin found himself was much better than Long Xiaoyun.
However, Li Xun Huan just kept silent and only sighed when they returned to the street.
Ye Gucheng: "What's wrong?"
Li Xunhuan looked at his perennially indifferent face with doubts, and squeezed his hands in a strange way: "Do you understand the feeling of marrying a younger sister?"
Ye Gucheng grabbed his troublesome hand and shook his head: "Since Zhou Pei is not bad, I thought you should be happy."
Li Xun Huan sighed again: "I'm happy, of course I'm happy, but I'm not just happy."
Ye Gucheng thought for a while and said, "You can't protect her forever. She is your cousin, but sooner or later she will have her own life."
Li Xun Huan looked up at the sky: "Of course I understand, but..." But what, he couldn't tell for a while.After the Li family's parents passed away, he and Lin Shiyin were each other's only relatives.Therefore, from the past to the present, no matter what his relationship with Lin Shiyin was, he never thought that one day Lin Shiyin would no longer need him.
Ye Gucheng looked at him and stopped suddenly.Li Xun Huan was pulled to a stop and turned around in doubt.Ye Gucheng obviously still couldn't understand his thoughts, but he didn't ask any more questions, just hugged him in his arms, patted his back comfortingly, and kissed his cheek.
This is still on the street!Li Xunhuan was hugged foolishly, and heard Ye Gucheng whispering in his ear to persuade him not to be sad.
Li Xunhuan wanted to say that he wasn't sad, that Lin Shiyin found someone he liked, and he was happy for her, but... well, it was the feeling that the cabbage that he raised at home was smashed by a pig.
But being hugged by Ye Gucheng like this, the mood seems to be much better.Li Xunhuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and hugged Ye Gucheng forcefully, and dragged him home together.
