Cen Ziyan is the best at bluffing, as soon as he speaks, the sound of "kiss me" resounds in the room.

"Shut up." Fu Yichen snapped.

Qi Wenyao also reacted quickly and kicked down the nearest stool.The stool was made of wood, and it hit the ground with a loud bang, which covered Cen Ziyan's inappropriate words and let their embarrassment go away.

Cen Ziyan didn't panic, and smiled, "There is no one outside, I sent them away long ago."

"Do you want to be sent away too?" Fu Yichen asked coldly.

Cen Ziyan listened to the accent of the word "打" through gnashing of teeth, and was persuaded, "Master, don't be so fierce."

"Uncle?" Qi Wenyao was stunned, "Is he... Zhai Yichen's apprentice?"

"Hey, my master's name is Lu Tianyi. What kind of person is Zhai Yichen? Why should I worship him as a teacher!"

Qi Wenyao thought about Cen Ziyan's general father, and suddenly realized, "Lu Tianyi has such an apprentice, no wonder he escaped from the prison."

"It's a long story." Fu Yichen coaxed softly, "Shall we sit down and talk slowly?"

Do you still remember that you made mistakes and are afraid of being driven away?Qi Wenyao's temper came and went quickly, and seeing Fu Yichen like this reminded him of the anger he held back just now.

The anger is long gone.Fu Yichen had to rely on a hidden box to enter the Qi mansion, so it was difficult to report.The matter of seeking paintings in the academy was Cen Ziyan's bad move, and Fu Yichen didn't even know about it.In this way, he wronged someone, and Fu Yichen should be the one who should be upset.

"Okay." Qi Wenyao agreed, with a relaxed attitude and a smile.

Fu Yichen also bent his lips.

"Hey, why are you guys getting tired of it again?" Cen Ziyan was a restless little worker, "I'm here, if you want to beat or scold, hurry up."

Qi Wenyao was disgusted, "What are you arguing about? Don't talk nonsense, and explain the academy's affairs clearly."

"There is nothing to explain. My father asked me to go to the academy when I had nothing to do. I went, and I happened to meet you. They praised the paintings so much that there are no heaven and earth. If you don't like that, I thought of another way. Gold praises your beauty."

"Just like that? Why pay me to paint landscapes?"

"Uncle Master wants to take you to revenge, but you two are old lovers who have fallen out in the eyes of others. I thought about it, and I think I can find a reason to let you leave the imperial capital. Outside the imperial capital, everyone can't see it." , what do you want to do."

Qi Wenyao cared most about the first sentence, "Yichen, do you want me to take revenge together?"

"I don't want to." Fu Yichen said decisively, "It's too dangerous."

Qi Wenyao was still grateful to Fu Yichen for thinking about him.In addition to being grateful, he also thought of Qin Daxia's hatred, "But I can help find the enemy if I go together."

Fu Yichen did not waver, "Revenge is not as important as you."

Qi Wenyao was taken aback.

That's all Fu Yichen said, with firm eyes.

Cen Ziyan looked left and right, and intervened unwillingly, "What are you afraid of, I am here! Don't listen to outsiders' nonsense, why the second son of Cen is weak and can only study and become an official. Bah! My injury has been healed by the master, martial arts Even stronger than my elder brother, he can definitely protect Master... Aunt Master?"

"Auntie, you are tall!" Qi Wenyao was furious, "I am brother Qin Daxia, and I am your uncle!"

Cen Ziyan was taken aback, and hid behind Fu Yichen, "Master, help me."

Fu Yichen said concisely, "Get lost."

Qi Wenyao didn't waste time on nonsense, he took a breath and continued to talk about business, "Cen Ziyan makes sense. I can use the name of traveling in the mountains and rivers to go out of the imperial capital and meet you halfway."

"No, this trip is too dangerous."

"It's not so dangerous when I go, and it's convenient to find enemies,"

Fu Yichen stared at him fixedly, "Do you want to go?"

"Yeah." Qi Wenyao also wanted to settle this matter quickly.

Qin Daxia treated him well, he didn't feel that he was doing his best by painting a few pictures.In order to determine the murderer, he had seen too many times the tragic scene of Qin Daxia being killed.Time and time again, he didn't feel numb, wishing he could save people in his memories.

When memory is the past, he can't get in. When looking for enemies is the future, he is willing to contribute.

Fu Yichen still has concerns, "Teacher Qi..."

"He will agree." Qi Wenyao chuckled, "Have you forgotten what he said today?"

When he smiled, Fu Yichen would not follow immediately, but his eyes lit up, "I haven't forgotten. Fortunately, I have you."

"What about me?" Cen Ziyan started to fuss again, "I'll go too."

Qi Wenyao automatically ignored the sophomore boy, "When are you leaving?"

Fu Yichen also only answered his words, "Father will issue an order tomorrow, ordering me to crusade against the rebellious party."

"The prince over there..."

"The eldest princess knows it well." Fu Yichen explained the arrangement without him asking, "I will send someone to protect Mrs. Qi."

"I'm not worried about my father. He has prestige in the hearts of the people and is investigating corruption cases. The emperor will protect him. The other ministers are guilty of acting rashly. They are all honest. As for the prince...he is even more afraid that something will happen to my father. arouse unnecessary suspicion."

"Wow." Cen Ziyan leaned on the small table and lay between them, "You know so much when you stay at home every day?"

Qi Wenyao didn't feel disgusted this time, "Cen Ziyan, we're leaving the day after tomorrow."

Cen Ziyan readily agreed, "Okay, I want to see Master too."

Qi Wenyao was still a little curious, "Why did you worship Lu Tianyi as your teacher?"

Cen Ziyan chuckled, "I have a predestined relationship with Master."

"He ran away from home and almost died in the woods." Fu Yichen unceremoniously disrupted the stage, "Brother Lu got entangled after he rescued him, it's a bad relationship."

Qi Wenyao looked at Cen Ziyan thoughtfully, "You are really good at stalking."

Cen Ziyan was furious, "What kind of fate, Master likes me very much!"

Qi Wenyao was not interested in these, so he sorted out the painted portraits and gave them to Fu Yichen.Fu Yichen took a closer look and quickly recognized the person from Wuya Pavilion, saying that it would be easier to catch such a criminal who has been wanted for many years.

Cen Ziyan realized that he had no sense of existence, so he shrank to the side and looked at them resentfully.

Qi Wenyao was not affected at all, and discussed with Fu Yichen, "The rest, I can paint as soon as I can. It's okay if I can't finish the painting. I can talk to you in detail on the way, and I can recognize people directly when I meet them."

"It's better not to draw, you have a good rest."

"That's fine." Qi Wenyao didn't force it, "We'll talk about it later."

Fu Yichen lowered his voice, and said the simple three words with a tender meaning, "See you then."

They stared at each other, speechless for a while.

Cen Ziyan's gaze swiveled between them, and he couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Why are you not kissing?

Looking back, Qi Wenyao drew a picture of his father and son with Qi Taifu as a birthday gift. After finding out that there is also the custom of eating longevity noodles to celebrate birthdays, he cooks and learns to cook noodles by himself during the day. When Tai Tu came back, he served a hot bowl.

Mrs. Qi was quite happy, "You are so good."

"Be careful it's hot." Qi Wenyao waited on him with a fan.

Mrs. Qi finished his meal slowly, and after admiring his paintings, he put away his gratified and kind smile, "Say what you have to say."

"I'm going to play landscape painting." Qi Wenyao knew that he couldn't hide it, so he simply said, "The painting is what Cen Ziyan wants. He will go too, and bring his personal guards to protect him all the way so nothing will happen."

He originally wanted to find more people to go with him to avoid gossip and suspicion, but Cen Ziyan said he didn't need it.The reason that traveling thousands of miles is not as good as reading thousands of books also makes sense here, and it is not uncommon for students to travel together.Cen Ziyan is the son of a general, and Qi Wenyao is the son of a grand tutor. The two second-generation officials have money and leisure to play together, which seems normal to others.

Grand Tutor Qi really didn't find it strange, "When are you going?"

"Leave tomorrow."

"Just go." Grand Tutor Qi gave a meaningful look, "King Jing is going out to crusade against the rebellious party today, so you shouldn't be able to touch one after another, right?"

Qi Wenyao laughed dryly, "I can't touch it."

Mrs. Qi didn't say much, and went to the study to do her own business.

Qi Wenyao also went back to clean up.On the way, the housekeeper delivered the travel expenses according to Mrs. Qi's instructions, including gold, silver and bank notes, and a box full of it was very heavy to carry.Qi Wenyao knew that if he didn't take it, it would make Mrs. Qi uneasy, so he divided it into various places in the luggage.

Although he doesn't need it at all.Cen Ziyan wanted to pay him a pen fee, and Fu Yichen... Even if he could appear on the side in an open and aboveboard manner, he wouldn't have a chance to make a move.

Qi Wenyao suddenly remembered the last trip.He took the silver with him thinking he would have a chance to run away. At this moment, he brought the silver but didn't expect to use it, nor would he run away from Fu Yichen.

"The situation is special, it's not about being soft-hearted and reconciling." Qi Wenyao has been trying to kill Qin Daxia's enemy these days, exhausted both physically and mentally, and has no time to think about the complicated relationship between himself and Fu Yichen.

The next day, Qi Wenyao got into the carriage of the General's Mansion and set off officially.

Cen Ziyan seemed not used to getting up early, and kept dozing off.

Qi Wenyao couldn't fall asleep, and looked out the window from time to time to think about where he was.

"Do you think so?" Cen Ziyan happened to wake up, rubbed his eyes and said, "We've only been separated for a day."

"How did you discuss it?" Qi Wenyao asked about the plan.

"There is a forest in front, and the master and uncle are there. You go with the uncle, master... hehehe."

Seeing Cen Ziyan's treacherous smile, Qi Wenyao frowned, "What are you doing?"

"Help Master change clothes and pretend to be you." Cen Ziyan said happily, "Then Master will stay with me all the time!"

Seeing this kid's excitement, Qi Wenyao twitched the corners of his mouth: "It's sticky, and he still looks greedy when he smiles. If Lu Tianyi doesn't want to, it's really evil."

He can't control so much about other people's affairs.After Qi Wenyao asked clearly, he continued to look around, silently calculating how far away he was.Compared with the last time, he has a memory plug-in, and has a new way of understanding the world, so that he will not be confused everywhere.

They kept on going, and arrived at a small inn near the woods in the middle of the night.After the accompanying officers, soldiers and attendants fell asleep, Qi Wenyao and Cen Ziyan got up secretly, and walked to the woods by an unknown path.

The outskirts are so vast that a spark can be noticed.They had no torches, so they could only walk on the road by moonlight.

"There's a rock here... Oh, you saw it." Cen Ziyan suddenly started talking, "Are you afraid of the dark?"

"Not afraid."

"My master is not afraid, hehe."

"..." Qi Wenyao squinted, "So happy?"

"Happy, I haven't seen Master for a long time. Don't you want to see Master Uncle?"

Qi Wenyao didn't answer.Let's talk about it, he was full of thoughts about avenging Qin Daxia, and his thoughts were not pure.Say he doesn't want to, but he can't help but think about whether Fu Yichen is in danger, and he can't sleep all the way.

Cen Ziyan lost interest in chatting, "You are as bored as my uncle."

"He's bored, I'm lazy." Qi Wenyao argued, "Don't talk, save some energy."

Cen Ziyan curled his lips and really stopped talking.

Into the woods, the moonlight is not easy to use.Qi Wenyao took out the fire folder, but Cen Ziyan, like a cat, could see clearly even without the light of the fire. Whenever he saw bugs or birds, he would hop around to catch them, and he was tireless after repeated failures.

Qi Wenyao had the illusion of raising a child.

"In front!" The bear boy found the prey he wanted to catch the most, "Master!"

Qi Wenyao just looked over, and Cen Ziyan had already rushed over with light work.

Not far away, Fu Yichen and Lu Tianyi stood side by side.Lu Tianyi and Qi Wenyao were about the same size, and Fu Yichen was taller, so he could tell his identity from a distance.

The sky was dark, Qi Wenyao couldn't see clearly, he could only vaguely see the tall figure always facing his direction.The anxiety of wanting to meet suddenly defeated the prudence and fortitude, urging him to hurry away.

Fu Yichen also came up to meet him, his eyes reflected the little fire in his hand, "Here we come."

The flames in those jet-black eyes were hotter and warmer than those burning in his hands.

"Yeah." Qi Wenyao smiled, and his nasal voice was surprisingly soft.

the other end...

"Nonsense!" Lu Tianyi pushed away Cen Ziyan who wanted to hug him, "You are not a child anymore."

Cen Ziyan was aggrieved, and maintained the posture of opening his arms for a hug, "Can't you hug Master when you grow up?"

Lu Tianyi ignored him and came to say hello, "This is Mr. Qi."

Qi Wenyao responded, "Young Xia Lu, I have admired your name for a long time."

Lu Tianyi is only 12 years older than Fu Yichen, and he is still a young hero in terms of seniority in the arena.It's just that Lu Tianyi has a heavy and oppressive sense of vicissitudes.Years of hiding in Tibet have made her body thinner and thinner, and her raised eyebrows have lost the arrogance of success, because they are often frowning and stained with sadness.

The same pale skin, Cen Ziyan is full of vigor and fairness, Lu Tianyi is pale because he is afraid of the sun.In addition, Lu Tianyi's appearance was gentle, and he was used to speaking in a soft voice, so he gave people the illusion of being weak and in need of someone to take care of him.

"You don't need to be so polite." Fu Yichen said, "We are all friends."

Qi Wenyao nodded, took out the clothes he had prepared, "Brother Lu, I have wronged you."

"No." Lu Tianyi took the clothes,

Cen Ziyan came up again, "Master, Master, I'll change it for you."

Nobody cares.Qi Wenyao explained how to pretend, Lu Tianyi listened carefully, and Fu Yichen paid attention to the surroundings in case someone suddenly broke in.

Few people outside the imperial capital knew about Qi Wenyao's temperament, so it was not difficult for Lu Tianyi to pretend.

Soon, things were explained clearly, and they parted ways.

Once out of the woods is the plain, which is easy to be found. Qi Wenyao put out the fire, and felt uncomfortable for a moment: the dark clouds covered the moon shamelessly, and the gloomy road was completely different from when he came.

There was silence, only the sound of their footsteps and breathing.

There is no desk, paper and pen, no other people to worry about... It is rare for Qi Wenyao to be able to let his mind go blank and stop thinking about how Qin Daxia was killed.In a daze, he accidentally guessed a pothole and stumbled.

"Ouch." Qi Wenyao wouldn't fall, but he couldn't help being a little startled.

Fu Yichen reached out to help him, "Are you hurt?"

The sky was gloomy, and he couldn't see Fu Yichen's expression clearly, but he could clearly feel the soft concern in his ears and the warmth of the support.

There was still little light around, but a little light burst out in my heart.

In order to find the enemy who killed Qin Daxia, Qi Wenyao kept thinking, drawing and inquiring, hurried out, and came to meet up late at night... After doing so much, he suddenly felt very tired at this moment.

Because he has someone he can rely on.

"No." Qi Wenyao replied in a very soft voice, rubbing his hesitant fingertips against Fu Yichen's supporting hand.

Fu Yichen immediately took hold, "Afraid of the dark?"

Qi Wenyao pursed his lips, "A little bit."

Fu Yichen stretched out his hand and grabbed it.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Qi Wenyao raised the corners of his lips wantonly.

It's good to be afraid of the dark.
