end of days

After all, Yang Yifeng was still calmer than Cheng Yumo, and immediately thought of Ling Luo.

However, when the servant sent out came back to report, he said that the second son of the Ling family hadn't returned home a few days ago.

-----------------------------

"What?!" Cheng Yumo's expression changed drastically.

"People in the Ling Mansion said that the Second Young Master has not been home these days, and it is said that the Eldest Young Master brought him into the palace."

Cheng Yumo felt more and more uneasy. Although Ling Yang was a great general, Ling Luo could only be regarded as a commoner. He was always known as a genius doctor in the Jianghu, but the Jianghu and the imperial court were two different places.

Ling Luo entered the palace in such a hurry, without even saying hello to himself, it seemed that it was an urgent matter, Cheng Yumo couldn't help but gritted his teeth.

There is an imperial doctor in the palace, if something happened to Zhuo Ran, there is no need for Ling Luo at all.

Could it be... a serious illness, to the point where she must be left alone.

Thinking that Zhuo Ran might endanger his life, Cheng Yumo couldn't help turning pale.

"Yu Mo, don't panic, it may not be Zhuo Ran's cause, it may just be someone else's emergency, and besides, Xuan Ling fell into the palace, and it may not be for a doctor..."

Cheng Yumo gradually calmed down, and also felt that he had been too impetuous recently, originally these things would not make him lose his composure like this.

"Sure enough, I have endured it for too long..." Cheng Yumo walked out of the study after leaving a sentence that Yang Yifeng couldn't understand.

Yang Yifeng shrugged helplessly, and followed him out the door.

The back garden of Cheng Mansion is very interesting. Large pieces of Taihu Lake stones seem to be piled up randomly, but they look extremely harmonious.

A stream dug out by a lot of manpower meanders through the entire garden, nourishing the fresh greenery, lush forests and bamboos, and the fragrance of birds and flowers.

"Yu Mo, you really have a heart..." Yang Yifeng sighed from the bottom of his heart, and an insider can tell at a glance that this garden is not only beautiful, but the most important part of this garden is the formation of rings and rings.

"I've known you for so many years, but I haven't really looked at your garden. Looking at it now, it's really interesting!"

Yang Yifeng is also a person who likes Qimen Dunjia. As the mainstay of the martial arts, the Haotianmen naturally teaches more than just martial arts.

"Tsk tsk, the whole courtyard is cut into two shapes by the stream. The Taihu stones seem random, but they are in line with the appearance of three talents."

Uncharacteristically, Yang Yifeng began to chatter endlessly, as if people would always be a little bit wordy when they encountered something they liked.

Cheng Yumo didn't answer, just smiled and looked at Yang Yifeng who was running around.

However, Yang Yifeng was still not satisfied, he touched the towering tree surrounded by three people with his toes lightly, and stood with his hands behind his back, the amazement in Yang Yifeng's eyes instantly deepened.

"I said how you spent so much money on this garden in the past few years, it seems really unexpected now." The flowers and trees planted in Cheng's mansion are like the appearance of the Nine Palaces, and the flowers and trees that suit the four seasons are layered on top of each other, which is really ingenious .

Moreover, the Cheng Mansion's mansion is right at the gate of life. If guests are guests, they can go from the house to the backyard unimpeded. If someone from the outside wants to climb over the wall and enter, they may never return.

This garden is covered up one after another, and if you calculate carefully, the changes are endless. If you are not a master, there is really nothing you can do.

"This garden was originally built for meditation," Cheng Yumo said. "Infinite disguise can make people relax invisibly, which is more convenient for me to think about things."

"If not, after all these years, I would really go crazy."

Yang Yifeng suddenly understood what he meant, if there was no Jingsi Garden, Cheng Yumo might really be so crazy under his agitation.

However, Cheng Yumo's concentration is indeed astonishing, otherwise, even with this garden, it would be useless.

"I understand why the master values ​​you so much."

"Oh?"

"Actually, you are the best candidate to take over Haotianmen."

"Really?" Cheng Yumo raised his eyebrows, as if disdainful.

"But Master understands your thoughts."

So, back then, he finally let Cheng Yumo go down the mountain and returned home, and finally gave Haotianmen to himself.

The two were chatting happily, but they saw the manager of Cheng's family hurriedly coming from the door.

"Master, Miss Liu is looking for you."

There was doubt in Cheng Yumo's eyes, and he quickly smiled clearly, that was the only Miss Liu he knew.

"Hurry up please."

When Liu Di appeared in the lobby of Cheng's mansion in a suit of commoner clothes, Cheng Yumo was startled to realize that there really is such a thing as a sudden dream in the world.

"Long time no see, how is Miss Liu?" Cheng Yumo couldn't tell what his feelings were for Liu Di, he didn't hate this woman because she was responsible enough, but Cheng Yumo was absolutely jealous of her.

Because when Zhuo Ran returned to the capital, the first time he went to find Zhuo Ran was not himself but the siblings of the Liu family. Cheng Yumo believed that if he hadn't found Zhuo Ran spontaneously, their lives would have passed like this.

Zhuo Ran had no intention of seeing him, never had.

"I heard that Ms. Liu and Master Liu are getting married. Congratulations."

One sentence made Liu Di embarrassed for a while, but he didn't know why.

Cheng Yumo didn't have a good impression of Liu Cong. If they used to be confidants, but that was a thing of the past. He knew better than anyone else how much Liu Siming had changed in these years.

In fact, if it wasn't for Zhuo Ran, Cheng Yumo would never have the intention of dating Liu Siming.

Back then, Liu Siming was at best a sour literati, and when we got together every once in a while, Liu Siming talked about his disappointment, his admiration for Miss Liu, and all those trivial things.

But now, when Liu Shilang sits in Cheng's mansion, he will always be an official, his tone, his style, and even his eyes show that he is superior to others.

Cheng Yumo knew that he was really unwilling back then, Zhuo Ran was the catcher of the six sects, Pei Di was a general, and he was considered a rich man, but he was the only one who was depressed and chanted those sour poems every day. .

However, his feelings for Liu Di are really touching.

It's just that I don't know how much enthusiasm is left now.

After Liu Di got married, Liu Siming's fortune began to improve. By chance, he met the youngest daughter of Qi Zhong, a member of the household department. He arrived at his father-in-law's original seat.

However, a year ago when the imperial court changed drastically, Qi Zhong was unexpectedly not purged, and instead was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Officials. He had been doing irregular business in secret, but now that he was in the Ministry of Officials, it became even worse.

Cheng Yumo secretly guessed that with Liu Siming's current shrewdness, Qi Zhong could only be manipulated.

Moreover, a year ago, it should have been Liu Siming who encouraged Qi Zhong to stand in the right direction, thus keeping the Qi family from falling.

When Liu Siming wore a second-grade python robe and went to Cheng's mansion to "Yi Xu", Cheng Yumo clearly saw the change in him, and his eyes that were originally cynical were now stained with secular filth.

Don't know what's left.

Sighing secretly to send Master Liu away, Cheng Yumo told the butler to refuse any similar visits in the future.

Seeing the sarcasm gradually appearing in Cheng Yumo's eyes, Liu Di panicked. She is indeed a resolute woman, but she is a woman after all.

She couldn't resist the coldness in Cheng Yumo's eyes.

"That...Brother Cheng..." Gritting his teeth, Liu Di finally opened his mouth.

"What is Miss Liu looking for with Cheng?"

"I want to ask you a favor..."

"Oh?" Cheng Yumo was a little surprised, he didn't know why Liu Di would find him, "Why didn't you go to Liu Cong?"

"Brother Zhuo, I can't trust him."

When Cheng Yumo heard this, he really began to admire the woman in front of him.

"Brother Zhuo is missing."

Although he knew it in his heart, when he heard Liu Di's words, Cheng Yumo's heart still couldn't help but tense.

"I know, I have already sent someone to look for it."

Liu Di looked up in surprise, but found the obvious worry in Cheng Yumo's eyes, why...why did he have such an expression, Cheng Yumo's concern for a person he hadn't seen in ten years was really inconceivable.

Something began to come out of Liu Di's mind, but she stubbornly refused to believe it.

"Brother Zhuo must be in danger, otherwise he wouldn't leave Xiaoyu alone for so long."

"Xiaoyu?" Suddenly remembering that Zhuo Ran had an adopted son, Cheng Yumo frowned, as if something was wrong...

"Xiaoyu's illness has always been supported by brother Zhuo's internal strength, so no matter how hard it is, it is impossible for brother Zhuo not to go home for so many days."

Hearing the word "home", Cheng Yumo's already tangled eyebrows furrowed a bit.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you if I'm careful. You're also engaged now. It's not good to run around all the time for Zhuoran. You'd better go back and wait."

Even if he is jealous, Cheng Yumo still admires Liu Di from the bottom of his heart. Knowing Liu Cong's character, he should help Liu Di a little bit more, otherwise, I don't know who Liu Shilang is going to target again.

"En." Cheng Yumo's tone was caring, and Liu Di thought about his words carefully, so he stopped insisting and let Cheng Yumo arrange to go back in a soft sedan chair.

"Brother, in your opinion, what should we do next?" Cheng Yumo rubbed his aching temple, and looked at Yang Yifeng who hadn't spoken since just now.

"Wait."

"Why wait?"

"After Ling Luo leaves the palace and understands the situation, we can make arrangements."

Cheng Yumo thought so, but he always felt restless, so he got up and went back to the back garden.

There is a bamboo house in the depths of the garden, hidden behind layers of green bamboo, quiet and elegant, and you can smell the fresh smell of bamboo when you walk in.

And this room has the advantage of being in the hidden door of the Nine Palaces, and even the servants can't go to this place on weekdays, so Cheng Yumo used it as a place for meditation.

Some things still need to be thought about after all. Thinking of this, Cheng Yumo sat cross-legged on the bamboo couch in a corner of the room, and gradually settled down.
