Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 28 Do you want to go back to the capital?

He picked up the book and opened a page casually.

With just one glance, the looseness in his eyes faded instantly, replaced by a rare seriousness.

Just when he was about to turn the page and read it again, Ye Yunfeng had already strode over.

"Xiao Wu, are you okay?"

Shen Yanchuan let go, Xiao Wu turned around and shook his head at Ye Yunfeng.

Ye Yunfeng pulled her to look up and down, and he was relieved to make sure that she was fine.

He stood up straight and bowed to Shen Yanchuan: "I'm really sorry, Xiao Wu is busy delivering books to the third brother, maybe he ran away in a hurry and didn't notice you."

Shen Yanchuan naturally didn't care about the child, seeing Ye Yunfeng's eyes fixed on his hand, the corners of his lips slightly curved, he handed the book back.

"No problem."

Ye Yunfeng took the book in his hand again, and his hanging heart finally fell.

The third brother explained that these books at home are treasures and cannot be seen by outsiders at will.

He pulled Xiao Wu again to thank him, and then ran away.

Shen Yanchuan also returned to his room.

Lying down on the soft bed, the scene just now kept reappearing in front of his eyes.

He has read a lot of books since he was a child, but he has never seen this book in his memory.

And even though he only glanced at one page, he deeply felt that the book was by no means simple, and it stands to reason that such a book could not be anonymous.

Not to mention the title of that book.

"Taizong..." Shen Yanchuan narrowed his eyes and murmured softly.

Emperor Taizong has been gone for decades, and idlers should not mention it lightly, how about that book...

"Lian Zhou, you said earlier that both brothers from the Ye family are studying in the academy?"

Lian Zhou didn't know why his master suddenly mentioned this, and nodded: "Yes. But I heard that the master of the academy is not very kind to them."

No need to think about why.

The Ye family has been targeted recently, and the master of the academy probably heard something, and he was honest with the Ye family brothers.

Small places will inevitably encounter this situation. Once there is a disturbance, everyone will know it as quickly as possible.

Shen Yanchuan thought for a while, and said, "Go and tell them that I am recuperating here and have nothing to do. I want to borrow two books."

Lian Zhou was surprised: "You want to borrow books here?"

There are so many books in the house, how can the master return them——

But seeing that Shen Yanchuan was determined, Lian Zhou didn't ask any further questions, and responded directly.

"Yes!"

……

"He wants to borrow a book?"

Ye Chutang was a little surprised.

Ye Jingyan nodded: "Yes. His entourage said that he was bored here and wanted to borrow two books for entertainment."

He hesitated and asked: "Sister, what do you mean, should we borrow it?"

Ye Chutang smiled: "Isn't it just a few books, just lend him. You can just pick two travel notes and send them to him."

After all, people have to pay to live here, so the convenience still has to be given.

Ye Jingyan understood: "Okay, I see."

Seeing that he turned to leave, Ye Chutang stopped him again: "Ayan, wait."

Ye Jingyan turned around: "Sister?"

Ye Chutang thought about it and asked, "How are you doing in the academy recently? Did Master make things difficult for you on purpose?"

Ye Jingyan didn't expect her to ask this suddenly, and was stunned for a moment.

He was about to shake his head subconsciously, but the person in front of him was a sister, he hesitated for a moment, and said frankly: "It's not really a deliberate embarrassment, it may be that I haven't done well in my studies, and my master has always been strict, so... "

"That's still difficult."

Ye Chutang couldn't understand the true meaning of his euphemistic words.

In fact, she knew that the master didn't like Ah Yan and A Feng a long time ago. At that time, when they first came to Jiangling, the two brothers knew that it was not easy for them to gain a foothold here.

The master is considered to be quite a status in Jiangling, if he offends him, it will be inconvenient everywhere.

But their tolerance and concession obviously did not bring the other party's tolerance, but intensified.

Ye Chutang handed over a bottle of plaster: "Don't forget to apply the ointment to the wound on your hand."

Ye Jingyan pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile: "It's almost better, sister don't have to worry."

Ye Chutang still gave him the medicine, looked at the scar on his palm that hadn't completely faded, and said softly: "A Yan, you are different from A Feng. He deserves to be beaten in the text. But you have always been sensible, and among the children of your age, if you say that your homework is second, no one dares to say that you are the first."

"Your hands should be used for writing articles."

Ye Jingyan was startled, lowered her head and did not speak for a long time.

He just... doesn't want sister to worry.

Ye Chutang patted him on the shoulder. The 13-year-old Ah Yan's body had already started to twitch. The boy who used to be only as high as her chest and whose eyes were full of panic and despair had already grown to be as tall as her. will surpass her.

After a pause, Ye Chutang asked, "Ayan, do you want to go back to the capital to study?"

Ye Jingyan looked at her in shock.

"Sister?"

Ye Chutang said: "You just need to answer whether you want to or not."

Ye Jingyan pursed her lips tightly and didn't speak for a long time.

It would be a lie to say that they don't want to, but... how can they go back now?
Ye Jingyan finally shook his head, and said firmly, "I just want to be with Ajie, Afeng and Xiaowu, and nothing else matters."

In his heart, family will always come first.

Ye Chutang was not surprised to get such an answer.

When the accident happened, Ah Yan was only ten years old, but he was smart and precocious since he was a child, especially after going through those things, he became more thoughtful.

A Feng is clearly about the same age as him, and he is still heartless until now, but he is completely different.

Ye Chutang was able to bring them to settle in Jiangling smoothly, Ah Yan really helped her a lot.

But reading this matter cannot be delayed.

In this era, reading is the best way out, not to mention that they can't really stay in this small Jiangling all their lives.

She still has a lot to do.

Ye Chutang said: "If you want, we will go back."

Ye Jingyan's heart beat heavily: "Sister——"

The corners of Ye Chutang's lips curled down: "A letter from the capital."

Ye Jingyan's eyes widened instantly, showing a rare look of eagerness: "Really!?"

Ye Chutang nodded, his voice still calm, but there seemed to be a thin layer of coldness in those dark and moist eyes.

"The accident that year was not an accident. The people who killed their parents and elder brother were not ordinary bandits."

Ye Jingyan's chest seemed to be heavily pressed by a boulder, and it was almost difficult to breathe.

Three years ago, when his father was demoted, his family encountered a gang of bandits on the way to Wuzhou, causing heavy casualties.

Later, it was Ajie who led them to mix with the refugees fleeing famine, and managed to survive.

For the next three years, Sister has been secretly investigating the truth of the year. Is there any news now?
He clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and asked, "Then—who are they!?"
