Evil disciple, let go of the back of your teacher's neck!

Liu Tao's body was found in the grass nest, and it looked like he had slipped and fell to his death.But in the middle of the night, the time for the academy arrangement has passed, what is he doing in the back mountain?

The same doubts arose in everyone's hearts, and when the scholar who reported back said that the place where the corpse was buried was not far from the place where the wild wolves were haunted, immediately some officials pointed the finger at Ah Lin who had just escaped from death.

"It must be you, you killed brother Tao! He only argued with you during the day, but fell off the cliff and died at night, it must be you who killed him!"

"Yes, he can even kill wild wolves, and it's not difficult to push people down the mountain."

"After all, a barbarian will act differently..."

Criticism abounded, and no one cared that Ah Lin's wound was still bleeding, so he couldn't wait to pick up another knife.

Even Xiao Wanshan, who is in charge of the prison, was a little shaken: "Brother Qing, in my opinion, we should hand him over to the government first..."

"no!"

Qiu Qianqing took out the handkerchief and stuffed it into Ah Lin's hand, turned around and said decisively: "The one who died was the only son of the Yushi family in Zhejiang Province. It is not unusual for the officials below to do things like torture and tricks in order to please you. Brother Wan Shan, others don't know." You know, you should know that if you want to commit a crime, you can kill innocent people."

As he spoke, he collected his expression, turned his back, and stopped those malicious and speculative eyes for the young man. "Ah Lin," he called, "Did you meet Liu Tao just now?"

"I have seen."

"……what happened?"

Ah Lin's eyes are lonely and cold, sometimes revealing a sense of hostility. When he glanced past, he couldn't help but feel chills: "I went to collect firewood, but Liu Tao stopped me in the middle and made me untie the beads for him." If I don't obey, he will beat me with the whip."

Only then did he notice that there were a few deep whip marks on Ah Lin's arms besides the bite marks of his teeth, and someone beside him muttered in a low voice: "It's just a few whips, what are you pretending to do, how do you know you didn't do it just for this?" dead hand..."

The swing flew quickly in the wind, and stopped the tongue that was moving right and wrong, "Did you fight back?"

"Yes," Ah Lin raised his head slightly, with sharp eyes, "It is not a gentleman not to take revenge. But I didn't kill him, I didn't kill anyone, sir."

After many years, it is still difficult for Swinging Qing to tell whether he had any selfish intentions at the moment he heard the "Sir".

In short, Liu Tao's death, he firmly believed in Ah Lin's innocence, so he did not hesitate to gamble his official name and reputation as a guarantee.But under his persistence, Xiao Wanshan didn't say anything after all, and only reported the crime in the name of slipping and falling off a cliff.Of course Liu Chan refused to let it go, and threatened to ask the academy to hand over the real culprit, otherwise he would risk his life to kowtow, and he would fight him to death.

However, when Liu Yushi arrived, he still failed to fulfill his wish.

In the 43rd year of Qingyuan, it coincided with the triennial Beijing Chase.After the edict to inspect the Beijing officials was issued, the memorial to impeach Liu Tao was flown into the duty room of the Procuratorate.Forming a party for personal gain was a big taboo of Emperor Qingyuan, and those in charge dared not reach out to rescue him, so he had to be taken into custody by the "Sangmen Gods" of the Zhenfusi.

It's ridiculous that Liu Chan's court was not successful, he himself received twenty stick blows first, and died, and the matter of Liu Tao's death was also over.

The long night ended without a problem, the morning bell rang at the right time, the grass seeds all over the mountains withered and flourished lawfully, and the days came three years later.

Qingyuan 36 years, spring.

A corner of the curtain moved, and the spring breeze carried the fragrance of flowers, catching people's hearts, and the consciousness that had been exhausted by the starry night on the swing returned to the body at once.

"gentlemen--"

The back is heavy on someone, and the slightly sweaty temples are rubbing against the side of the neck. The red of agate and the coldness of cedar complement each other.

Qiu Qianqing turned her face slightly, and said helplessly: "How old is he, and he still acts like a baby."

Ah Lin left his shoulders with a smile, his hands still clasped on the belt: "Mr. just wrote a letter the day before yesterday saying that he wanted to come back, and he is here today. Why is it so fast?"

It is said that half-sized children grow up when they see the wind. In the past three years, the swing has not been able to stay in the academy all the time. Every time I see Ah Lin, I can't help but sigh how good it is to be young. His size is like a stick, and the dazzling kung fu has passed His ears are sharp.The stature has become more and more impressive, straight and vigorous, steaming after running, it is the most radiant and freshness of a young man.

He finally covered the rock into warm jade.Swing was secretly relieved, and took out a hand to pat Ah Lin's cheek: "This is not remembering your birthday, I'm afraid it will be too late, some brats want to eat again."

As soon as the voice fell, I felt that the confinement around my waist was suddenly tight.

"Sir, did you come here just for my birthday?" Ah Lin's voice seemed uncertain, but also vaguely expectant.

Swing smiled and said, "Not only that, but also congratulatory gifts, you should get up first."

Reluctantly, the wolf cub rubbed against him a few more times before he straightened up reluctantly.The face that had faded from childishness was sharp-edged, even with a vertical smile, it was difficult to hide the sharpness at the peak of the brow.

Because of this, the dart with red tassels hanging in Qiu Qianqing's palm stood out against him.

"This dart is called Baichifeng. It is made of fine iron. It is more convenient than the stone throwing you used before. But you must remember that Baichifeng is a killer weapon. Once you let go of it, there will be no turning back. You must be cautious before doing it. .”

Ah Lin held the hidden weapon in his hand, his eyes followed the edge of the edge, and his two faces were burning: "This red tassel?"

The swing turned blushing: "Hey, I made it up in a hurry. It's a birthday, so I have to make a good fortune. You will go to the market in a few days and I will exchange it for you."

Ah Lin shook his head, combing each tassel with his fingertips, his gestures became more and more tender, and when he twisted to the end, there was even a hint of gnawing.

Do my best with unknown desires.

"Mr.'s heart is precious, and it is the best in the world."

After the congratulatory gifts were delivered, the master and apprentice sat down a few tables apart, and Ah Lin blew a cup of hot tea for the swing.

"I heard that a few days ago, you competed with the young master of Zuo's family in the capital of Zhejiang Province, and you discounted one of his legs. Is it true?"

Knocking lightly on the edge of the bowl, Ah Lin scrutinized the expression on the other side, with a feeling of uneasiness between his brows: "Did the teacher tell you?"

Guessing that everything is inseparable, Qiu Qianqing sighed silently, and said: "You have such a temperament, you should also restrain yourself. You have reached the age when you should discuss marriage, and you are always so fraught. How can people feel at ease to tell you about their daughter."

Ah Lin's eyes widened, and he blurted out: "I don't want to get married!"

"Nonsense!" Qiu Qianqing made a serious face on purpose: "Men in ancient times, who didn't get married first and then established a career, there is no reason not to get married. Besides, if you don't get married, why are you hiding the girl's embroidered handkerchief?"

I saw it when I entered the door. Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, I leaned out and tucked it between my fingers, as thin as a cicada's wing.

Before the swing could see clearly the pattern on the veil, the wolf cub became impatient, grabbed his wrist with a quick reaction, and with a little force, brought him towards him.

Leaning over to look at each other, the ribs hurt a little, but the swing didn't care about it at all.He was deeply locked in by those light brown eyes, piously and forcefully, every look and every emotion lost the opportunity to leak out.

As if there was a slight breeze, the handkerchief was gently lifted, and it fell down the table in a whirl, forming a patch of begonias.

The swing was breathing slightly stagnant, and the pattern seemed inexplicably familiar.

"Do you really want to know why, sir?"

His voice sounded tense, and the hand clenched between his wrists became more and more forceful.Swing couldn't help but feel agitated, and tapped on the back of his hand, just like pointing out the mistakes and omissions in his homework before: "Okay, let's talk seriously, what's the trouble. Go to Brother Wan Shan."

Ah Lin's eyes dimmed, showing a dull expression, but he still respectfully said: "I'll wait for the master to come back." At the end, he added a sentence, "Today is Ah Lin's birthday, and the husband will come back to eat a bowl of birthday noodles, yes ?"

Those eyes were filled with anticipation, like a child looking forward to a bunch of candied haws, or a wolf cub looking forward to a star.Qiu Qianqing didn't think much about it, and replied with a smile: "Yes."

That night.

Coming out of Xiaowan Mountain, Qiu Qian was full of thoughts, and went straight to the hot spring in Daze on the back mountain.At this time, the lotus root and lotus root have not broken the ground, and the crystal clear lake water can wash away the dust all over the body.

He sank in the water, his hair soaked like ink, rising and falling with the ripples.Thinking of Xiao Wanshan's words, my mood was very ups and downs.

The leaves he brought lightly landed on the surface of the lake. He didn't look back, but slowly raised his body, and the drops of water trickled down his spine;

The surface of the water rose a little, the ripples parted, and someone waded in.

almost simultaneously—

"Have you been drinking?"

"Why didn't you come back, sir?"

Qiu Qianqing couldn't face him directly, and said with a guilty conscience: "After the dust has been washed away, we can celebrate people's birthdays."

This person is not someone else, but the little Xi Nu he saved from the mouth of the vicious dog, the apprentice he accompanied and raised for three years, and the fourth prince who deserves to be bowed down by him.

Coming out of Xiaowanshan's house, Qiuqianqing already knew everything.There is not only the distinction between master and apprentice, but also the distinction between monarch and minister.

Ah Lin, oh no, I should be called Feng Lin now, and I am not in high spirits, her voice is dull, mixed with a hint of alcohol: "When Mr. Jiu waits for not coming, I go down the mountain to buy wine in Lin'an Lane. The greedy mouth is only half a pot, not much. drink."

Qiu Qian thought for a while, and said: "In the future, it is better for you to go less often, especially Lin'an Lane."

"why?"

Swing was a bit late, how would he explain that today's Songjiang Mansion is not what it used to be, the hawks and dogs of the Zhenfu Division are all over the city, and Lin'an Lane is one of their strongholds.The Fourth Highness, who was supposed to be a partner outside the pass, entered the pass against the order. If there is any news about this matter, Ah Lin will have no way out.

After a long while, he let out a bitter breath, "Because in a few days, you will go to Lishi Fortress. The law and discipline in the army are strict, so it's better to do everything well in advance."

Because of the stillness, the whole mountain was dead still, and the swing heard the sound of raising his hand and splashing the water in the rustling wind. Then, that hand put his shoulder on his shoulder, and his hot breath sprayed on the side of his neck.

"Sir, do you want to drive me away?"

"I'm not..." The words of explanation were stuck in his throat, and Swing quickly noticed the strangeness of the person behind him in the inexplicable closeness, "Ah Lin, you?"

The hand slipped to the empty neck like a fish, and the voice suddenly became low, "Where is the thing I gave to Mr.?"

Qiu Qian had no time to think about what he was referring to, and shouted in surprise and annoyance: "Sinister, what are you doing!"

The fingers paused for a moment, then suddenly increased the force, pressed a little bit lightly, squeezed slowly, and could not wait to achieve the extreme of the word "jujue".

Ma Jin'er jumped up the spine in an instant, opened his mouth several times, but was disrupted by rapid panting.It took only a blink of an eye for the always obedient apprentice to tear off his disguise. This sudden change is more difficult to comprehend than the sum of the world and the earth.

"Let go first, listen to me!" His body became limp, and he began to sweat. In order to cover up his lost confidence, the swing suddenly turned up.

But it doesn't help, but more like an incentive.Those lips that were slightly cracked by the smell of alcohol floated on the nape of his neck, and he bit them down abruptly, sparing no effort in his lips, teeth, and tongue.

"My husband saved me back then because of the word 'ashamed'."

I don't know how long it has passed, Feng Lin let go, the tip of his tongue is cold and slippery, forming a strange contrast with the burning hardness somewhere.

"Mr. protects me today because of the word 'love'."

Every word that followed, he wished he could bite into pieces between his teeth: "Love for Xiao Wanshan."

Swing was stunned.

In front of half a stick of incense, in the study room, the best friends who have been together for many years confronted each other for the first time. Xiao Wanshan stopped playing the piano and smashed the surface of the piano with fists to vibrate.

"Brother Qing, you are confused! Why did you forget why the fourth prince was expelled from the customs? There are thousands of good deeds in the world, why bother to do such a stupid thing like feeding a tiger!"

The swing was standing by the window, his face turned half-turned: "The little wolf outside the pass has sharp teeth, but he also knows how to be loyal."

"Loyalty?" Xiao Wanshan laughed angrily, "He is already a prince who has been rejected, so what's the use of being loyal? What's more, he was able to return to the Middle Earth. Who will be the guarantor behind it remains to be considered, in case the saint finds out about this The crime of harboring alone is enough to bring disaster to the whole academy!"

"No, there won't be that day."

As usual, the swing was dressed in a sky-blue robe straight down without any extra waves, but quietly clenched the folding fan in his hand, "After tonight, Ah Lin will be 16 years old, and it's time for him to tie his hair and join the army. At first I planned to let him stay with my brother." By my side, I will be a close guard to protect you. Just to be on the safe side right now, the only option is to send him to Lishi Fortress and put him under Wang Zhengxuan's command."

After a pause, "I know that my brother still has great ambitions, but the road to return to the court is not easy. The saint is old, and the East Palace has no independent opinions. Even if Ah Lin is not favored, he is also an unfavored prince. .”

Xiao Wanshan was shocked: "Brother Qing, how dare you?"

Qiu Qianqing was cruel, and said: "The road is as simple as it is, and it cannot be broken or erected. As long as Ah Lin has military achievements, he will not be able to sit on the throne, and Dayan will still have his place. Liu Tao died three years ago. If you love him, reciprocate, and he should be the sharpest knife in your hand."

In a blink of an eye, the swing was turned over and landed heavily on the stone wall.

The bottom of Feng Lin's eyes was bloodshot, and the clear pool of water was already full of mud for his eyes. He was sinking and collapsing, and the gesture of the prisoner holding on to the swing was like calling for help, but also seemed to be in the madness before death.

"It turns out that in your eyes, whether I advance or retreat, I am just a stepping stone for Xiaowanshan to go up.

In the past, when you protected me, you didn't really believe in me, but just to give Xiaowan Shanbo a good reputation.

My husband wants me to be a knife, why use my heart to temper it? "

No matter how many explanations were given by the swing, they were torn to pieces by Feng Lin and blocked back, and the kindness between lips and tongue was turned into ashes, and there was only hatred, and attachment that hatred could not be wiped away.

Suddenly the flames flared up.

The kiss took most of the consciousness away from the swing. In the mist, I only heard someone shouting loudly: "The command and envoy are ordered to investigate the case. Now there are Xiao Wanshan and others giving lectures in Songjiang. Reputation and power must be mutually respected, and there is no fear. After our thorough investigation, the Songjiang party members want to make the imperial court depose the power and seize the power. Their intentions are not shallow. Officials have surrounded the academy inside and outside, and those who surrendered will not be killed. "

The source of the crime was Ni Shi, not the prince's guilt and return. The officials who came to arrest him were none other than Zuo Anyu, the governor of Zhejiang who had just been convicted.

As for the wine in Lin'an Lane, Ertan wine is probably not the only one involved.

The scales and claws were connected in a line, and the swing wanted to get away angrily, but the tight rain and the entanglement of the man's breath made him have nowhere to go.

This old Lin Feifei's spring and March have been full of wind and rain, and the case of reverse poetry broke out.

The author says:

After writing more than 1 words about the past, I will pull back to the main thread tomorrow. I hope I don’t get too wordy⑧～
