Peony Overlord [Rebirth]

The night wind in April is much milder, and the moon is still bright. Seeing that Xing Yanhong hadn't planned to sleep at this hour, Lin Hao wanted to persuade him to rest, but before he could speak, a person came in quietly at the door.

Xing Yanhong wasn't surprised when he saw someone, but as if he was waiting for someone to come, he said with a smile: "Yi An, it's so late."

Chu Xinle looks the same as usual, but if you look closely, you can find that the corners of the mouth that are usually hooked are drooping at the moment, he ignored Xing Yanhong, but Lin Hao felt that the beauty's eyes with knives were going to goug him out , could not stop shaking.

Lin Hao lowered his eyes, Chu Xinle stepped forward to take the cup of tea from Xing Yanhong's hand, and looked down at him condescendingly.

"It seems that the warm spring breeze has muddied the head of the third son, who came to teach me a lesson?" Chu Xinle pursed her lips, and the light reflected on his browbones, showing a bit of indifference, and the red mole under his eyes looked more and more contemptuous.

Xing Yanhong retracted his hand in mid-air, and the two were very close. As Xing Yanhong sat with his bent knee against Chu Xinle's knee, he felt the suppressed anger on the person in front of him, and the tense muscles gradually spread from his knees. burst.

"Yi'an, he has too many tattoos, I'm teaching him." Xing Yanhong looked directly at those loving eyes, as if coaxing a child.

They are obviously about the same age, and Chu Xinle is even older than Xing Yanhong, but his helpless pampering expression always reminds Chu Xinle of Chu Songcun, it is not disgust, but a kind of unreasonable attachment, as if Yesterday, it was like an abyss again, Chu Xinle hated the feeling that she was slowly falling into the trap.

"My people, I will teach them myself, Xing Boluan, keep your mouth shut and watch your people." Chu Xinle took two steps back, looked at Lin Hao who was standing upright and speechless, and then glanced at Xing Yanhong. The air pressure in the room made Lin Hao feel a little suffocated.

Xing Yanhong didn't understand why this man was so arrogant, he frowned and said, "Otherwise?"

Chu Xinle threw the teacup in her hand directly in front of Lin Hao. The fragile porcelain hit the hard ground and instantly fell apart. The sound of breaking was especially harsh in the silent night.

"If there is any more, take off his hands." Chu Xinle looked at Rinhao with a smile and narrowed her eyes, but she spoke to Xing Yanhong, with a sense of warning as the tea fragrance in the cup on the ground permeated, wrapping Rinhao tightly.

After saying that, Chu Xinle turned around, swaggered out of the house, and disappeared into the night.

A gust of night wind blew in through the open door, shaking a candle, Xing Yanhong's dark eyes became deeper, and he exchanged a glance with Lin Hao, then moved his eyes to look at the miserable debris on the ground, and sighed: "Tsk... ..It seems that Yi An is really angry..."

Early in the morning, Shi Haoming came over for dinner, but this time he was not alone. Chu Xinle saw a child following him, whose height was only up to Shi Haoming's waist, and his two small hands tightly grabbed Shi Haoming's clothes , followed others obediently, and looked at Chu Xinle timidly and cautiously.

"This is..." Chu Xinle blinked innocently, and winked at Shi Haoming.

Shi Haoming led the child out from behind. The child was white and clean, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Although his movements were a little timid, he pretended to be calm, just like a little adult.

"Second brother, this is the younger brother." Shi Haoming said.

"..." Chu Xinle heard that the Shi family has four sons and no daughter, so it seems that this is the youngest.

Chu Xin was happy to see that Shi Haoming had no intention of directly saying his name, but if he asked, he would appear arrogant in front of this younger brother.

Shi Zhenming...Shi Jiaming...Shi Haoming...

Is it...

"Shi Huaiming?" Chu Xinle cautiously expressed her bold conjecture.

"..."

At this moment, the atmosphere dropped to freezing point, and even the sun outside was not warm.

"Second brother, it's Shi Linling." Shi Haoming seemed to compromise. He originally thought that the second brother could have some impression of his younger brother's name, but he knew that he had overestimated.

Chu Xinle nodded, and praised from the bottom of her heart: "That's a good name."

"I started..." Shi Haoming whispered.

"You?" Chu Xinle asked the two of them to come over and sit down. Today's breakfast is simpler, but it is rich.

Chu Xinle picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of steamed meat for Shi Linling into the porridge. Shi Linling was still cautious and looked at Shi Haoming. .”

Only then did Shi Linling turn her head and smile politely at Chu Xinle, revealing a dimple similar to Chu Xinle's, and stretched out her small hand to pick up the porcelain spoon to drink the porridge.

"Ling'er and I are the same mother. My mother gave birth to Ling'er. Her body was weak. The owner never came to see her. She only brought a bowl of tonic medicine when Ling'er was over one year old. So Ling'er has been following me. Seeing him It's getting bigger and bigger, so I just randomly found a name for him in the series." Shi Haoming said it indifferently, as if he had said it thousands of times, just like talking about family matters.

Chu Xinle took a look at Shi Linling who was obediently eating the porridge, and remembered that Shi Haoming always wanted to take away the leftovers he had eaten at her place these days, so her mind became clearer.

"Bring him here later."

"What?" Shi Haoming paused with his chopsticks in the air, and Chu Xinle clearly saw many expressions flashing across his face. Although it was only for a moment, Chu Xinle was surprised that there was even a trace of remorse.

"Both of you are my younger brothers. As older brothers, I should take care of you." Chu Xinle said softly.

Shi Haoming didn't speak anymore. He lowered his eyes and concentrated on eating. His thick eyelashes covered the emotions in his eyes, so he couldn't see what he was thinking.

"Second brother..." Just when Chu Xinle thought the conversation was over, Shi Haoming's trembling voice sounded, he raised his eyes, looked at Chu Xinle opposite him calmly, and said: " Thank you."

As soon as spring comes, the days begin to lengthen, and the time seems to slow down a lot. The heat wave has endured a cold winter, and it is likely to make a comeback.

These days, Shi Linling has lost the strangeness she just met, and has a good time with other people.

Chu Xinle was still drinking tea in the house, watching Shi Linling and Huo Gang kicking shuttlecocks in the yard, and Chen Fan practicing sword not far away, while Jade Lotus and Green Bamboo were applauding and applauding. It was much more relaxing.

Unexpectedly, before the cup of tea was finished, Shi Haoming took the shuttlecock kicked by Huo Gang and kicked it to Shi Linling in a happy mood, avoiding the sword that Chen Fan swung and came towards the house.

"Look at you like this today, come here to pick up money on the way?" Chu Xinle put the teacup back on the table, he took off his cloak, and only wore a few thick clothes, making his face fair.

Shi Haoming pulled up the stool and sat down beside Chu Xinle. Maybe he was tired from running, so he poured himself a cup of tea, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Guess."

After thinking about it, Chu Xinle couldn't figure out what could make him so happy, so she asked casually, "Could it be possible for you to go out?"

Shi Haoming started to play tricks, nodded and shook his head, and said, "Almost." He wanted Chu Xinle to continue guessing, but the young man's temper was always impatient, and before Chu Xinle could open his mouth, he couldn't breathe and said: "Our Shifu is going to hold a spring banquet!" As he spoke, he remembered that his brother couldn't remember anything, so he asked suspiciously: "Second brother, do you know about the spring banquet..."

Those three words were like a sharp knife piercing through Chu Xinle's eardrum, piercing his intestines until it reached his heart. His blood froze for a moment, and he found that he couldn't breathe at all.

Spring feast...that is obviously the Chu family's habit!

It was also because of that spring feast that the Chu family was abused by the rest of the six continents of the Central Plains——

When the Chu family was still alive, a spring banquet was held every spring and April to invite the rest of the family to come. A few years ago, the Chu family had already made a big splash, and the tricks of hidden weapons made the other big families almost powerless, so they merged into the Chu family. The Mu family's good calculation made the rest of the family stare at it even more, and Chu Tianling, the head of the Chu family, knew this, but still wanted to hold a banquet.

It was not yet dark that day, and the rest of the family still came one after another. They had smiles on their faces, but each had their own ulterior motives. Only Chu Songcun could follow Chu Tianling to attend the banquet, and the rest of the Central Plains knew that the Chu family had a young son, but Never seen what it looks like.

After drinking for three rounds that night, the atmosphere should have been even more exciting, but at the banquet, everyone stared and stared at each other, except for some polite words, there was nothing else.

Xing Yanhong liked to play at that time, but Xing Lingjun didn't keep an eye on him, the bastard couldn't see him, and Xing Yanping always liked to tell the truth when he drank a little wine, so Xing Lingjun had to stay by Xing Yanping's side.

不怪邢凌君和邢烟平总爱揍邢雁鸿，一个看不住，邢雁鸿就跑到后院小河边上要抓鱼，琴川是水城，就连楚府里都横贯一条小河，一到春日，那些This is where the upstream fish come.

When Xing Yanhong saw those goldfish with glowing scales, his eyes were straightened, and he stretched out his hand to catch them, regardless of whether the wet mud on the riverside was slippery or not.

The river is neither shallow nor deep, but what Jiuyuan lacks most is the river. Xing Yanhong can't swim, so he panicked and splashed in the water, but it was too dark, and most of the servants went to the front yard to serve at the banquet. People are willing to pay attention to what happens here, but Xing Yanhong ran out and didn't ask anyone to follow him. At this time, he was completely alone and had no choice but to die.

He opened his mouth to shout, but as soon as he opened his mouth, water poured in, and the fishy smell made his stomach queasy.

"Who? Who's there?" A cautious voice came from the riverside.

Xing Yanhong yelled recklessly as if he had caught a life-saving straw: "Help! Help! I, I can't swim!"

He didn't seem to remember what happened next so clearly, he only knew that there was a sound of falling into the water not far away, followed by a hand around his waist, and he pulled himself ashore with all his strength.

He coughed out the salty smell in his mouth, leaning on the lantern not far away to dimly see the appearance of the person who rescued him in front of him.

It is a bright face, with a shining light between the eyebrows and eyes, and there is always light in those eyes, which is the light that Xing Yanhong will never forget in his life.

"Whose family do you belong to? Why did you come here?" The child wrung out the water that drenched his clothes, and then wiped off the water on his face. He was too fat to bring Xing Yanhong up just now, so he was still panting.

Xing Yanhong didn't answer, his eyes were fixed on the person in front of him, as if he wanted to imprint him in his mind, he asked: "Who are you? Are you from here?"

"Me?" The boy didn't expect him to ask back, he looked a little dazed, he opened his mouth to tell Xing Yanhong who he was, but he couldn't remember anything when he spoke, his expression was in a trance and pain, struggling and forbearing.

"Ale!" A voice came from not far behind, and the boy called Ale turned around, promised over there, and looked back at Xing Yanhong.

"Go back quickly, this is not the place you should come." Without waiting for Xing Yanhong to stop him, Ah Le ran into the darkness, taking away all the fear of Xing Yanhong with brisk steps, leaving only a trace of surviving memories.

Until now, Xing Yanhong still couldn't forget the light in those eyes. He didn't know when he sneaked into Chu Xinle's back room and listened to Shi Haoming happily talking about the spring feast, but Chu Xinle didn't say a word.

The two of them knew very well that it was that spring feast that became the fatal blow to the Chu family.

Xing Yanhong dragged his drenched clothes and ran to Mr. Xing Ling. Before Mr. Xing Ling could open his mouth to attack him, he saw servants from several other great families rushing in from the outside, saying something to his master. Changed, the hypocritical smile was torn apart, revealing the real face.

"Patriarch Chu, do you still remember the murder of a civilian girl a few days ago?"
