Zhou Pei looked at him for a long time before a smile appeared on his lips: "Mr. Cheng, what's the point of fighting for it?"

"If you want to delay it, there are still ways, such as becoming a monk...or maybe getting frightened this time..."

"After Zhou Pei fights for it, will the teacher fall in love with me?"

"Well……"

"The teacher will not fall in love with me, I have figured it out. The teacher... there are many women around him, and he is not a heartless person, but... that is fate. I have known the teacher for more than two years, and slowly...

I know him, understand him, and admire him, but I may not really understand him. A teacher is always a teacher. I am always just his disciple. For two years... this is all fate..."

Zhou Pei said this, lowering his eyes with clear eyes: "...I suddenly grew up, and this fate has come to an end."

Cheng Zhouhai was stunned for a moment. After all, he was a warm-hearted person. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he had to give up in the end: "Then... after the princess returns, she will get married. Cheng will be here

I wish the princess and Princess Qinse peace and happiness from now on."

Zhou Pei smiled: "Actually... getting married is not a big deal. Mr. Cheng, I am very happy to be able to do such a thing for the teacher before getting married. But last night's experience suddenly told Zhou Pei, Zhou Pei

It’s so petty to always be a member of the royal family and always worry about getting married. I also hope to be happy in the future. But what this incident really tells me is that Zhou Pei still has a lot of things to do.”

The girl looked at Cheng Zhouhai and Yingying stood up: "For example, there is another Gao Mu'en who is tyrannical, and there are corrupt officials who are ruining the foundation of our Wu Dynasty... I used to always want to do something, but I always felt that I was a woman.

, couldn't do anything, so I always lost my temper with my lazy brother, hating that iron could never become steel. But this incident told me that as long as you want to do something, there is always a way to do it. This time... Zhou Pei wants to thank you for your success.

If I have the opportunity in the future, I will thank you sir for your help."

"Uh... that's easy to say." Cheng Zhouhai cupped his hands, vaguely wondering whether the thing in front of him was good or bad. He saw the fifteen-year-old girl standing there, looking at the night sky. She was not as tall as

He was tall, but there was a vague sense of pride in that figure. He knew that it was the aura brought by the power of the royal family.

Cheng Zhouhai said goodbye and left.

Zhou Pei stood there for a long time. When the air cooled down and no one was around, she felt water stains slipping down her face.

The tears are cold...the teacher has left...

From last night to today, she has thought about a lot of things in her mind. There are many things that she can do in the future, and there are also many things that she will never be able to do again. But the things that she has thought clearly can only be left for later.

And it doesn't help to take care of your current emotions.

She just didn't want to be weak in front of others.

The fate is over... we can no longer see each other... the teacher finally left...

She was thirteen when she met him, and fifteen when she realized she fell in love with him, but he was leaving and she was getting married.

Even though I think clearly, I can't suppress the sadness in my heart. After tonight, youth has passed away, like a corpse buried in the soil. New trees will sprout, and the old body will die. People can pretend to be strong, but no one can

You will know what awaits you in the future.

She stood there, holding on to the trees in the yard, lowered her head, covered her mouth and cried silently. In her mind, there was such a carriage, which left Bianliang that afternoon, carrying the night east.

On the carriage was the teacher she had fallen in love with when she was fifteen, and then the carriage kept moving, getting further and further away from her...

Shooting stars streaked across the sky.

Luliang Mountain, Qingmuzhai.

Lu Hongti raised his head and watched the shooting stars streaking across the night sky, then stroked his hair beside his ears. He walked into the small room in front. In the room, the old man was holding a writing brush and was studying something at his desk.

"Grandpa Liang, I'm coming in."

"Oh." Liang Bingfu tilted his head and arranged the things on the table. After a moment, he nodded, "Oh. Hongti, you're here..."

"Grandpa Liang, you said something happened before. Is it something important?"

"Go out for a walk." Liang Bingfu thought for a moment, then picked up his crutches and stood up to go out. Lu Hongti followed him. Looking down the hillside, people in Qingmuzhai came and went, and the lights flickered. This was what Lu Hongti felt.

One of my favorite scenes.

"Hongti, what do you think about Meng Shuizhai coming over to propose marriage?"

After leaving for a moment, Liang Bingfu suddenly asked, making the woman stunned for a moment: "Grandpa Liang, why do you suddenly ask this..." There have been more than one marriage proposals. The marriage proposals in Mengshui Village are not special. She is a little confused.

Why mention it specifically?

Liang Bingfu leaned on his cane and smiled: "Just a casual question, what do you think?"

"I feel... it seems... not... uh..." He was too old and had refused too much. Lu Hongti was a little hesitant when he said it. Liang Bingfu stood on the roadside on the mountainside, looking at the scene below and smiled.

For a while.

"Actually... Lu San, Li Li and the others went south together."

"Um?"

"Hongti, you also pack your luggage. Let's go south again."

"Grandpa Liang, what's going on?"

Speaking of this, the atmosphere finally got down to business. Lu Hongti was confused. Liang Bingfu stood there, holding his crutch with a serious look.

"Lu San, Li Li and others have been restless since they were driven out of the village. They went south to find trouble with Ning Liheng. These people have never left Luliang in their lives. The south is prosperous, and many things they do are

For those who are unclear, they asked Tian Liu to lead the way. Do they think I don’t know their movements?”

In the wild land of Luliang Mountain, many things are solved with knives. The rules for survival are also different. Although these people seem to be free, they have lived in their own land all their lives. In fact, they may not be able to adapt to other places. If they want to go out

When traveling far away, there are always some people who have been to the outside world who can help lead the way and teach them customs. The Tian Liu mentioned by Liang Bingfu is one of these people. Lu Hong said for a long time: "Grandpa Liang, this..."

"They have been away for several days. You can't stop them in Luliang."

"But I...can't leave now. Grandpa Liang, everything is just on track...How can I leave Qingmuzhai like this?"

"I've thought about this too." Liang Bingfu closed his eyes, shook his head, and sighed, "But...it doesn't matter for a while. I can still help you look after it for a while..."

"No, Grandpa Liang..." The woman shook her head, and after a moment, she said, "That... that Ning Liheng, he learned my kung fu, he is very powerful, Lu San and the others can't beat him, if we talk about conspiracy,

They just went to die, I don't have to worry about him at all..."

Liang Bingfu looked at her: "You do it mentally or not, are you really so sure?"

"I..." Lu Hongti was speechless for a long time, looking at the old man in front of him, "...why?"

"You should... live a life for yourself." The old man glanced at her and smiled, "You reject these and those people. They are indeed not very good, but even if there are good ones, I won't say anything. That Ning

Li Heng, you like him... Hehe, don't say no to an old man like me. You should also like someone. There is nothing shameful about liking him. I am already old, and it will be difficult for you to support this village for a few more years.

Years, but while I can still hold on, I hope you can do something else. Maybe I won’t have this opportunity in the future..."

Lu Hongti was silent for a moment and smiled: "We are friends, and I do think... he is very powerful, but I can't bring him back to the mountains..."

"Of course it would be the best thing to bring him back." The old man said with a smile, "But even if it doesn't work now, if you go and see him more often, you might be able to find something. You have to go first before you can worry about the future.

.Hongti... take advantage of it now, even if there is no result, you will be very happy when you think about these things later. You have shouldered so much for the village, you must leave something good..."

"I think it's good now..."

"Oh, Grandpa Liang is not urging you to get married. If you really don't want this to happen in Luliang Mountain, then just wait. Go see him, talk to him, talk about... your affairs in Luliang Mountain, and then take a look at him

Grandpa Liang won’t tell you whether it will work or what will happen to you when you come back, okay?"

Hongti stood there, looking at the lights below, twisting her fingers together: "What should we do with the village? It was just like this..."

"There are no rules in Luliang Mountain. Those things written by Ning Liheng are a bit too strict. You must implement them. It's okay for the time being, but if you want it to last, you have to take your time." The old man said, "When you go out,

I am doing strict things, and suppressing things when I come back. After you come back, if you make some changes, they will accept your favor. I have thought about these things. Although I am old, I can still suppress them for half a year.

live."

After a long silence, Hongti suddenly said: "Grandpa Liang, are you and Master..."

Before she could finish her question, Liang Bingfu paused on his crutches twice and looked down, his expression changing, but in the end he just said: "It was your master who saved me back then, and I came here... There are some words that I didn't say,

If you don't do some things, you may regret it when you get older."

Lu Hongti looked at him for a long time before nodding: "...I will think about it."

"Well, think about it."

After saying this, Lu Hongti walked down the hillside. She didn't know what she should do. When she looked back, the figure on the hillside was still standing there, leaning on a cane, looking into the deep night in the distance.

.

In my impression, my master was much older than me, and Grandpa Liang was a gentle and elegant middle-aged scholar when I was young. But until my master died, Grandpa Liang aged rapidly.

I used to think that Grandpa Liang suddenly became old because he couldn't help the village. The master seemed to have had this idea in rescuing him. Grandpa Liang did many things, some of which were useful, and some of which were useless. In the end, he was just

Let this village be preserved until the people alive today expand it.

What happened to that Confucian scholar back then and that heroine back then? Now some of the people involved have died, and those who are still alive probably don’t want to talk about it anymore. Hongti stood there, looking at the figure, thinking about him

What are you looking at.

The stars are falling from the sky.

What was submerged in that darkness was probably their story.

Thinking about it this way, it feels a little sad.

Well, the two chapters have added up to over 11,000 words. I came here to write a single chapter to celebrate. I have a chapter saved, but I found out that it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I might as well post it today. After all, we always have to celebrate.
Chapter completed!
