Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord

After returning from the northwest, Xue Pan has not been very active.

What he was doing with this appearance, everyone was as clear as a mirror, but Aunt Xue just didn't know, she didn't let go at all, so Baochai and Daiyu had no choice but to pretend that they didn't see anything.Although the servants don't know it well, Xue Pan has always been the best friend with Bo Yang, and even if he goes out, he has to personally deliver it, and it is normal to have some feelings of parting.

Fortunately, except for his laziness, there is nothing special about him, and he does not shirk what he should do. From the outsider's point of view, it is naturally the same as before.

After living like this for a while, Xue Pan also knew that things could not be changed. He was about to pull himself together to deal with the affairs of the capital, but when he didn't want to go out, he stumbled on the threshold and almost fell down. on the ground.

Although Chang Shun next to him quickly supported him, he didn't fall down.But being so startled, Xue Pan only felt his heart beating violently, and suddenly had a very bad premonition.

Naturally everything is going well with him here, so if there is anything wrong, he can only think of Bo Yang.

Something happened to Brother Yang?

Xue Pan tried his best to let himself get rid of this idea.After all, Bo Yang is not alone in the Northwest, besides, he has always been smart and quick-witted. Although the Northwest is chaotic, the city of Ping'an is indeed safe, and there shouldn't be any problems with reasoning.

However, despite thinking this way, Xue Pan's heart was in a state of turmoil this day, and he was absent-minded when doing things, always thinking about things in the northwest.

Bo Yang is smart, but in such a chaotic place, there is no reason to speak, force is what can be relied on.Bo Yang was born frail, although he has been raised well in the past two years, he is born with deficiencies and is not as good as other people.If something really happened, he would never be able to deal with it himself.

Besides, as the saying goes, there are unpredictable things in the sky, and it is also said that when people sit at home, disasters come from the sky. Who knows if Bo Yang will encounter any accidents?

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became.

If he hadn't remembered what he had promised Aunt Xue, Xue Pan couldn't help but want to find Bo Yang right now.

Unexpectedly, although he wanted to hold back rationally, but emotionally, he wished he could grow wings so that he could fly to Bo Yang's side in no time.Xu Shi thought day by day and dreamed night by night. That night, Xue Pan dreamed that Bo Yang was running all the way, as if some terrible enemy was chasing him.Then, because he was too panicked, his feet slipped suddenly, and he fell into the abyss.

Xue Pan woke up with a start, his whole body covered in cold sweat.

He believes that this warning sign will not appear for no reason.In his heart, Xue Pan is actually a bit demented, and he always feels that since he and Bo Yang are so deeply in love, it is not surprising that there are some tacit understandings.If something happened to Bo Yang, he would naturally feel it.

So at this moment, he was [-]% certain that Bo Yang had encountered a disaster, so how could he stay in the capital safely?

He got up early the next morning, went to greet Aunt Xue, and then mentioned that there were still many things in Baochai's dowry that were not complete, and he planned to go to Jiangnan to purchase in person.In addition, there are still many things that I prepared in the early years. When I came to Beijing, I was very hasty. I didn't bring them with me, and I needed to pick them up.

Although Aunt Xue knew this truth, Xue Pan suddenly brought up the matter without thinking, and she immediately became vigilant, and only said that it would be fine to send a few honest and stable family members.As for buying things, send a letter to Xue Biao and ask him to help with the cooking. I think there is nothing wrong with it.

"Mom, that's a bad word. This kind of thing, how can you be in the clan? In the future, it will be a muddled account." Xue Pan frowned.

Aunt Xue said, "You child, what nonsense are you talking about? Bao girl's marriage, the entire Xue family has been honored! What was it like when they took away your position as the head of the family? Now they are not trying to flatter us. Take advantage of this opportunity to let the family know that our family is not easy to bully! They will naturally know what to do in the future. If you say it, don’t communicate anymore? Nonsense! After all, we are a family. The broken bones are still connected to the tendons! How can we get rid of them?"

"Besides," seeing Xue Pan's disapproval, Aunt Xue said earnestly, "In the future, you will always have a family and start a business. It is hard to guarantee that our house will continue to be so prosperous. In the future, there will inevitably be times when others will take care of us. You But don't think about it?"

At this time, family values ​​are very important, sometimes even more than loyalty to the emperor.After all, as part of the ruling class, the iron-clad family of the flowing dynasty must conform to the royal family, but sometimes it is unavoidable to plan for the family.These things, the big guy has a steelyard in his heart.Aunt Xue may not think so clearly, but she has been influenced by her ears and eyes since she was a child, and she naturally understands the importance of the family.

Xue Pan was anxious, and his tone could not help revealing a bit, he said, "Even if it is so, I should go there in person, so that I can look honorable, and it is a good intention to make friends with the clan."

Aunt Xue knew that her son was somewhat demented, but now that he responded so readily, it made people suspicious.She stared at Xue Pan, frowned and asked, "Pan'er, tell me honestly, are you going to the south of the Yangtze River or the northwest?"

"Where am I going, when I come back, my mother will count the days, so she will know." Xue Pan said, "Could it be that my mother will also detain me in the capital because of Brother Yang's matter, and not allow me to go out?"

When his attitude became tough, Aunt Xue's momentum weakened.

Guessing that since he had let go, Xue Pan would not be taboo at this time, so he said, "You can go as well, you need to bring a lot of people, otherwise Mom won't worry."

Xue Pan nodded in agreement.No matter how many people he brought out of the capital, he would have a way to shut them up and not reveal anything about it.What's more, even if they want to say it, that will be a matter of later time, Bo Yang is the most important thing now.

Aunt Xue let go, and Xue Pan packed his things and set off southward the next day.But in fact, after leaving the city, he let the others continue to go to the south of the Yangtze River, and he took Changshun alone and drove all the way to the northwest.

The good news is that during this process, he no longer had the same heart palpitations as that day.But this does not reassure Xue Pan, because he still has nightmares every night, and what happens to Bo Yang in every dream is shocking, which makes him very worried.

……

The doctors that the villagers could hire were of a limited level, that is, to fix Bo Yang's bones, give him good medicine, and wait for him to recover slowly.In addition, a lot of medicinal wine was left behind to rub away the bruises on Bo Yang's body.

At the beginning, Bo Yang planned to go back to Ping'an City. After all, no matter what they wanted to investigate, or Liu Xianglian's side, there were many crises and they needed someone to preside over it.When he and Liu Xianglian came out, they entrusted Changxing with the affairs in Chengcheng.But that's all for a while, since the two of them didn't go back, they must be in panic.

But while waiting for the doctor, he slowly figured it out again.

If he and Liu Xianglian didn't go back for a day, it would be "life and death in doubt".The Northwest is so big that those who chased it out couldn't go back even if they were in a hurry.If you can't go back, the matter will not be settled, so the other party will not be so eager to do it. ——Bo Yang believes that since he and Liu Xianglian have stepped into the trap, 100% of the strongholds in Ping An City have been exposed.

Besides, he thought that it would be safe to enter the city, after all, the other party needs to be cautious in the city.But what if the other party doesn't want to be scruples anymore?If I go back like this at this time, that is like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth.It was so hard to escape, Bo Yang would not send himself back.

So at the moment, I can only hold back and try to contact the city while resting on my wounds. It is best not to expose myself and pass the news over, so that the people below can move again.

After all, Shangyu's spare place is the emperor's confidant, even if the power here is not that great, it is impossible to have no backup.Moreover, you can also contact people from nearby states and counties to come to help.And most importantly, has the news they tracked spread out?And how to try to remedy it?

On the seventh day of recuperating in the village, Bo Yang finally reached Changxing with difficulty.

This is because he once told Changxing about various passwords when he was very bored.Then, taking the opportunity of the villagers going to the city during the ten-day assembly, I taught the girls in the village to embroider the password on the handkerchief and sell it, so as to pass the news.But on the one hand, there is no guarantee that Changxing will see the news, and on the other hand, it is very difficult for Changxing to turn his thoughts to this, so these days were wasted.

After all, he was always in touch, and Bo Yang was relieved, waiting for Changxing to come to meet him.

He was a scout with rich experience in reconnaissance and anti-reconnaissance. Bo Yang believed that he could find a way to come alone, and after meeting, he would ask clearly about the situation during this period before discussing the next step.

In the end, instead of waiting for Changxing, he waited for Xue Pan.

At that time, Bo Yang was sitting in the dusty yard with his eyes closed and thinking about the problem.In the evening, the sun shines through the sparse branches of the big trees in the yard, making people drowsy. Just when Bo Yang's thoughts were about to be muddled, the top of his head went dark, and the sunlight was blocked.

He opened his eyes and saw Xue Pan.The expression against the light was hidden in the shadow of the sun, unable to distinguish emotions, which made Bo Yang subconsciously feel bad.

For Bo Yang, although everything he encountered was thrilling, since it was his own choice, he was not completely unprepared in advance.Although the danger exceeded his original expectation, fortunately, he survived safely. Although he described it as a mess now, he didn't really care much about it.

It's just that being looked at by Xue Pan at this moment, Bo Yang suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Let Xue Pan see himself like this.

But this discomfort only lasted for a moment, since there was no way to change it, Bo Yang didn't think about it too much.He just speculated with some anxiety that Xue Pan looked a little scary like this.It just happened to be this time, this matter must not be hidden, I am afraid I will be angry again.

Although Xue Pan couldn't do anything to him even if he was angry, Bo Yang still felt guilty for no reason.After all, he didn't reveal any clues about this matter beforehand, and he couldn't blame Xue Pan for being angry with him.But why did he suddenly come here?Could Aunt Xue just let him go out?

"Xue Pan?" He thought for a while before speaking.

Hearing his voice, Xue Pan's tense body suddenly relaxed, his legs softened, and he knelt on the ground, startling Bo Yang, "Xue Pan? What's wrong with you?"

"Brother Yang..." Xue Pan stretched out his hands to hug Bo Yang's calf, and put his face on his knee, his voice trembling, "Brother Yang, you're scaring me to death."

Bo Yang originally thought that he would get angry, but who would have expected such a reaction, his heart suddenly softened, and he raised his hand to gently stroke his head, "It's my fault. Don't be afraid, I'm fine. Look at me, am I doing well?" Is it?"

Xue Pan ignored his words.

Bo Yang had no choice but to say again, "I'm really fine. Get up, there are still people watching."

Xue Pan still refused to get up.After a while, Bo Yang heard a few sobs that seemed to be nothing, and felt a little warmth soaked from the part of his knees that was pressed against Xue Pan's face.

He cried.
