cold jade blue

His hands are always so cold, Leng Yi thought to himself, and was dragged by him to a remote courtyard. There was a plaque on the door, with three big characters in block script on the board, Qifengyuan.The doors and windows were locked tightly, as if no one had lived in it for a long time, but Li Qingyu took out the key from his body and opened the door. The first thing that caught his eye was a big tree in the yard with lush branches and leaves.

"This is called Poinciana, and it's not the flowering season now. If the tree is full of red flowers when it blooms in May and June, it will be as beautiful as the phoenix dancing for nine days." Li Qingyu climbed up the tree familiarly while talking.

Unexpectedly, Li Qingyu would climb a tree, Leng Yi anxiously said under the tree: "Young Master, be careful."

Li Qingyu was already sitting among the thick branches, and smiled at him with her legs loose: "You come up too."

Leng Yi hesitated for a moment, then climbed up and sat next to Li Qingyu. Li Qingyu stroked the dark green leaves on the tree and said, "The leaves are like the feathers of a flying phoenix, and the flowers are like the crown of a phoenix. This tree was planted by my mother before she was alive." Yes. Originally, our place was not the most suitable area for the growth of poinciana, but my mother stubbornly planted it in her yard because she loved the bright colors and vigorous appearance of the tree, and cared for it in every possible way. Unfortunately, when the phoenix tree finally blooms, the people who appreciate the flowers are gone."

Li Qingyu's eyes seemed to reflect the deep green of the trees, showing a strong sadness.Leng Yi wanted to comfort him, but didn't know what to say, Li Qingyu continued: "You also know that my mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to me, so it can be said that I killed her."

"No, young master, this kind of thing can't be counted like this." Leng Yi hurriedly cut off Li Qingyu's words.

Li Qingyu smiled and continued: "I haven't even met her. I heard from Uncle Lei that she looks very beautiful and gentle, but she is stubborn and dares to love and hate. She was the one who insisted on using her life in exchange for me. I have always felt that my mother has not left, but her soul is guarding me in this tree. So when I am sad and upset, I will come to sit on this tree, and Uncle Lei can let me do it."

"You are the young master, why do you have something to worry about?" After speaking coldly, he realized that he was being more polite, and quickly slapped himself to shut his mouth.

With a crisp sound, five red paw prints appeared on Leng Yi's face, Li Qingyu sighed and touched his hot face with his cool fingertips: "The bruise on this face hasn't been treated yet, why did you hit yourself again?" ?”

Withdrawing his hand, he said solemnly to Leng Yi: "You are the person I have chosen to protect my life, and I want to cultivate you into the most dazzling flower. So you have to learn martial arts well, until one day even if you don't have to fight those people I can also surrender under your aura."

"What kind of flower, Leng Yi is just a wild dog picked up by the young master, but Leng Yi promises that he will only be loyal to the young master."

"Wild dog..." Li Qingyu chuckled: "Now you are not a wild dog. Wild dogs only treat themselves well, and I want you to treat me well."

"What are you worried about, young master?" Leng Yi was keenly aware of the change in Li Qingyu's mood. As the only son of the Li family, this young master is at a carefree age with a noble status, even though he has no relationship with his father. He looks like a worried little adult, and his mature appearance makes people feel distressed.

There was a mocking smile on the corner of Li Qingyu's mouth: "Brother Lin said that the needs of those in power directly determine the ability and status of the subjects under him. Our dynasty has been fighting against the barbarians in the north, and the generals are scarce. Today, the emperor does not favor martial arts. Even a civil servant needs to know three moves and two moves, otherwise he will not be able to gain a foothold in the court. Learning martial arts should start at a young age, just at the age of three, and it is not too late at the age of five. But I have no talent at all, and I have no interest in it until today. I used to try my best for brother Lin, but it didn't work, it didn't work, there was no way."

He continued with a sneer and said, "It's just that Wu can't do it. I have no interest in those complicated ways of dealing with people and the principles in books. Even if I want to be a civil servant in the future, it will be very difficult. I can neither enter the general nor Unable to make appearances, father is very competitive. The only heir naturally expects him to become a minister in the court and win a place for the Li family, right? Father has already realized that the son he has high hopes for is just a son who only knows how to eat and drink all day long Playing, ignorant waste. Being the only son of the Li family now doesn’t mean it will always be! Brother Lin and Uncle Lei can’t protect me forever. After being disappointed, I don’t know what will my father do with me? How long can you pamper me?"

Surprised by the sensitivity of Li Qingyu's heart, Leng Yi, who was not good at words, could only comfort him: "Master, you are just a child, don't think about it so much, the days are still long..." He shut up halfway through the sentence, and he didn't know what to say. I feel that this is very weak.

But Li Qingyu lost the sad look on her face just now, and puffed her mouth childishly: "If you say I'm a child, aren't you just a brat not much older than me?"

Looking at him coldly, the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up. Li Qingyu touched his wound soothingly and said, "Although you were beaten because of me today, I can't seek justice for you. But you Remember, you are an outsider who came here for the first time except Brother Lin, and you are a special existence in my heart."

Leng Yi nodded understandingly. After all, if Li Qingyu stood up for him, it would bring even greater troubles to his life in Li Mansion in the future. I think the young master understood this before he said this.A special existence... Just these five words make him happier than Li Qingyu seeking justice for him.

"Your life will not be very peaceful in the future, but since you decided to go with me, you should have such an awareness, right?"

Leng Yi nodded again, Li Qingyu smiled.Sweet words are nothing to him, Young Master Li, a earnest nod of promise carries more weight than all those good words.

"Master..." Leng Yi thought for a while and said: "Young Master, you better not treat Leng Yi like this, Leng Yi will be as loyal as the Young Master. The Young Master is not the kind of person they say. Leng Yi does not want the Young Master to be punished." They say that."

Li Qingyu raised her eyes and smiled softly: "You have to figure it out, Yi, I am the young master, and they are slaves. Why should I care what a group of slaves say? Besides, why do people care about other people's opinions when they are alive? My life is my own." , and not theirs. Only I have the right to control myself, and there is no need to care about other people who have nothing to do with it."

His slightly domineering tone makes him look cute, and Leng Yi likes his spoiled appearance, as if he was born to be pampered and loved by others.

"You practice martial arts well, and when you grow up to the level of brother Lin, you can help me, and come and protect me together."

Leng Yi sighed in his heart, who said that the young master is a little ghost who doesn't know the world?He is like a transparent ice jade, fragile and beautiful, and shows everything to you purely, even if it is a crack, it also has a special sense of beauty.Because of this frankness, you can't help but want to care for him.

Although Li Qingyu's relationship with his father is not good, his relationship with the old housekeeper Lei Xin is as close as a grandfather and grandson.Lei Xin loves him very much, and he basically responds to his requests, and he will act like a baby to Lei Xin, and there is no gap between the two.There is also Lin Xian, who loves Li Qingyu to the core, anyone can see that this noble son has good intentions for the young master of the Li family.Now there is another Leng Yi, Leng Yi is loyal to Li Qingyu from the bottom of his heart.Anything, as long as Li Qingyu said a word, he would do it without hesitation.

As a personal servant, Leng Yi followed Li Qingyu to study and read.Gradually, I also understood that although Li Qingyu said that he didn't like the truth in books, it was not that he was not good at reading.That's right, Lin Xian personally taught him since he was a child, so how could Li Qingyu not be influenced by it?Moreover, he is very smart, and almost never forgets the books he has read, but he does not agree with many of the principles in the books.Especially those great principles of governing the country that have been passed down through the ages, he is the most dismissive.For example, civil servants have always admired Confucianism. Confucianism advocates governing the country with rites and attaches great importance to ethics and morality. Li Qingyu said that although those civil servants advocate benevolence, justice and morality, they are full of stratagems and sophistry, which can be called hypocrisy.

And Mohism's idea of ​​non-aggression and love is even more ignorant by him, how can it be possible that everyone in the world loves each other.Speaking of which, among the hundred scholars, he appreciates Taoist thoughts more, especially Zhuangzi's articles.But Taoism pays attention to governance through inaction, but in today's world, inaction is a manifestation of incompetence. Leng Yi likes Confucius' articles and thinks that Li Qingyu's thinking is a little too radical. No wonder he said that he cannot become a scholar and civil official.

But this does not affect Leng Yi's affection for this master with a peculiar personality. Originally, the days passed peacefully day by day. Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, they were all trivial matters. Leng Yi felt that such a life was not bad, he She has already made up her mind to stay with this young master Li like this for the rest of her life.

But the sky didn't go his way, Lei Xin suddenly became seriously ill, and his condition was so violent that he couldn't get out of bed immediately.Li Xiaoan invited many famous doctors to diagnose and treat him, but none of them could find out the cause.Later, without explaining to Li Qingyu, Lei Xin was isolated outside the house.

Li Qingyu, who finally learned about this incident, changed his usual quiet and obedient appearance, and angrily took Leng Yi to find Li Xiaoan. At that time, he was reading some documents in the study in the front yard. Li Qingyu opened the door and broke in: "How could you do that?" , Uncle Lei is already sick, and he is placed outside the house, if something goes wrong, no one will even know."

Li Xiaoan looked up at him, and said calmly: "I have arranged someone for him, and he will know if there is anything."

Li Qingyu asked anxiously: "What if there is an emergency? It's too late to rush, why not arrange him at Li's house, we can treat any illness slowly..."

Li Xiaoan threw down the document with a "snap", and said coldly: "What do you know? Even the imperial doctor can't find out his condition. What if he gets infected? I am the head of the Li family. He is responsible as a butler, and he is also responsible for the Li family! Don't make me mess with my temper here, get out!"

Li Qingyu's tears were suffocated and suffocated in his eyes, but they did not fall, and he yelled at Li Xiaoan: "Lei Xin is also one of the youngest members of the Li family, you have forgotten all the things he has done for you. Is it? Ruthless and ungrateful!"
