After retiring from the court, Liu Lingyan went to find Li Zhi to understand the situation in Shaanxi a little bit, and comforted him as a former colleague by the way, then returned to Liu's mansion, explained to Liu's father and Liu's mother, and then went to Yang Xiling .

At this time, Yang Xiling was in a garden in a daze staring at the sky, and Hai Qing was beside him also in a daze, motionless. From a distance, they looked like two human figures. If you saw them at night, you would be frightened, but now In the afternoon, there was no such sense of shock. They didn't become real until Liu Lingyan came to find them. Yang Xiling was already used to Liu Lingyan coming to her as soon as she came back. It was the same today. She said, "You're back."

Liu Lingyan smiled and said, "Well, I'm back, I have something to tell you."

Yang Xiling opened her eyes wide and asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Liu Lingyan sat next to her and said: "I will go to Shaanxi the day after tomorrow to deal with business. It may take a while. I don't know when I will be back. Please help me take care of my father and mother. I will entrust you at home, and you should take good care of them too. Own."

Yang Xiling became more and more strange the more she listened, she felt that he was talking about the funeral, and she had the impression that she had heard rumors about Shaanxi there, she thought about it, it seemed that when she ran away from home, she heard someone She had discussed the serious issue of the bandits in Shaanxi, and she was directly related to this matter, and Liu Lingyan didn't seem to have any intention to make it clear, so she asked directly, "Are you going to deal with the bandits in Shaanxi this time?"

Liu Lingyan was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Yang Xiling to know about this matter, he didn't want her to worry, so he avoided the seriousness and said lightly: "Yes, just deal with the bandit issue, it's nothing."

In fact, Liu Lingyan only thought to deal with the bandit issue at the beginning, but after getting a preliminary understanding of the situation in Shaanxi with Li Zhi, he also felt that this case would not be so easy to deal with. If it is not handled well, even he may be in danger He did not expect that the problem of bandits was still serious in his imagination. Now the problem of bandits expropriating refugees from Gansu and moving eastward to Shaanxi has been solved, but it is still too late to solve the problem. The bandits have rapidly grown from a village to a small town. The scale, and also has its own army, and the defense is also very tight. It is no wonder that it is a trivial matter that General Li, Minister of the Ministry of War, also suffered a disastrous defeat, because he completely underestimated these bandits.

Yang Xiling was not so easily dismissed by him in two or three sentences. She also knew the general situation there and knew that it was very dangerous. She said: "Don't fool me, I also know the situation there, the bandit problem there It's very serious, the bandits are bigger than the local officials, it will be very dangerous for you to go this time, I know this is the emperor's order, I can't disobey, but at least let me feel at ease, okay?"

Liu Lingyan said seriously: "I promise that I will put my own life first and will not do anything forced or dangerous."

Yang Xiling shook her head and said, "Not enough, this doesn't make me feel at ease."

Liu Lingyan thought for a while and said, "Can I ask more people to protect me?"

Yang Xiling still shook her head, Liu Lingyan said helplessly, "How do you want me to make you feel at ease?"

Yang Xiling looked at him and said seriously: "I don't know the strength of those who protect you, so I don't trust them, so let my brother be your bodyguard to protect you. I know my brother's martial arts. He protects you, so I can feel at ease."

Liu Lingyan blurted out anxiously: "No, it's very dangerous this time, I can't let my brother-in-law take the risk." After he finished speaking, he realized that he had said too much, and he pursed his lips slightly.

Yang Xiling looked at him with squinted eyes, and then said: "My brother is very good at martial arts, and I also heard from him that he accidentally saved you once, which proves his strength even more, so he is by your side. Only at ease."

Liu Ling said: "But...."

Yang Xiling saw that he still didn't want to agree, so she used her trump card and said: "If you don't let him accompany you, then I will follow you. Even if you leave me, I will follow you secretly. If Xiling meets I don’t know what will happen to the bandits.” In the last sentence, she frowned slightly, held her sleeves to look at her eyes, and said in a pitiful manner.

Liu Lingyan couldn't stand his lover's sad look the most, so he took a step back and said, "Okay, I promise you, but only if my brother-in-law is willing."

Yang Xiling immediately said happily: "Don't worry, brother will definitely agree, I'll ask him right away." After she finished speaking, she went to her room, and went to Yang's mansion to look for Yang Xixue after she wanted to take the veil.

When she returned to the room, she saw Yang Xixue sitting at the table waiting for her, and asked in surprise: "Brother, why are you here? Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Yang Xixue smiled and said: "Not long ago, I saw that you and your brother-in-law were chatting happily in the courtyard, so I didn't want to disturb you, so I waited for you here."

Yang Xiling suddenly sighed secretly, and then said with a smile: "Oh, just right, I have something to ask you too."

Yang Xixue asked: "Oh, what's the matter?"

Yang Xiling turned on her begging mode, grabbed Yang Xixue's sleeve and said coquettishly: "Brother, I need your help with something."

Yang Xixue knew that there was something difficult for her to ask for his help, so she retracted her sleeves and said, "As long as it's not something I can't do or I don't want to do, you can say it, and don't say anything else."

Yang Xiling has figured out her brother's temper. Although he said so, he will help her in the end, so she grabbed Yang Xixue's hand and continued to act coquettishly: "Brother, it's very simple. I want to ask you to Be Ling Yan's bodyguard and protect him until he returns from Shaanxi, okay?"

Since Yang Xixue left the Liu Mansion, she has been walking around a lot, and she has also heard about Shaanxi. He said with a serious face, "The emperor sent my brother-in-law to Shaanxi to deal with the bandit problem?!"

Seeing his performance, Yang Xiling also knew that he knew the situation over there, so without further explanation, she said directly: "Yes, I am afraid that it will be dangerous for him to go alone. I know that my brother is very good at martial arts, so I would like to invite you Protect him." Of course she knew that Liu Lingyan would not go alone, but for the sake of effect, he deliberately said that he would go alone.

Yang Xixue's first reaction was to agree immediately, but he wanted to go deeper. It was impossible for Liu Lingyan to go alone, and thinking of his feelings for him, he was afraid that he would not be able to control his heart, which made him very hesitant. Said: "Don't worry, someone must protect him."

Yang Xiling guessed that he would not agree easily, so she stepped up, shook his hand, and said in a coquettish voice: "Brother~ I don't know if those people's martial arts are good, I don't worry, but I know brother's martial arts Very good, and compared to them, I trust you more, so you should just help me, Ling Yan also agreed, brother~ okay~? okay~?"

Yang Xixue is a soft-hearted person. She was already a little hesitant about Liu Lingyan's safety. When she saw her younger sister begging her, she completely fell aside. He said, "Okay, I promise you, I will protect you." Good brother-in-law."

Yang Xiling said happily: "Okay! Brother is the best, it's great to be your sister!" She suddenly said formally: "However, brother, you have to be careful. Although I believe in your strength, I am also worried You, so you must come back safely together, promise me."

Yang Xixue touched her head, smiled softly and said, "Well, brother will take good care of my brother-in-law and myself."
