On the occasion of collapse

"Sand, sand." The sound of the leaves turning was so clear in the courtyard, and no other noise could be heard.

Finally, all the fallen leaves were cleared aside and piled up by Angelica dahurica.

"Ta." A drop of water fell on the back of Bai Zhi's hand. Bai Zhi raised her head and realized that the originally sunny weather had turned cloudy at some point.

"It's raining..." Bai Zhi stood there blankly, feeling the rain getting heavier.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Bai Zhi stood motionless in the yard, holding a bamboo broom in her hand.

She raised her head and let the rain wash over her face.

Bai Zhi didn't make a sound, but it seemed like something that didn't belong to the rain was mixed with the rain and fell together.

Late at night.

The rain stopped long ago, and Bai Zhi also took a shower.

Otherwise, it will be very troublesome if you catch a cold.

Her hair was still wet, and Bai Zhi didn't pay attention to it.

Bai Zhi sat on the stone, slowly drinking the sweet-scented osmanthus brew she bought one mouth after another.

She looked at the starry sky and drank wine. Except for the sound of the wine flowing and swallowing, there was no sound around her.

I don't know how long it took, but after finishing the wine, Bai Zhi just sat on the stone, thinking about nothing and doing nothing.

After a long time, she fell asleep.

Maybe it was the effect of alcohol, or maybe she was just really tired.

She slept soundly, she had never slept so soundly in this month.

When dawn came the next day, she looked at the familiar yard and the empty wine jar at her feet, but she laughed.

"Old man, I'm going out."

(Personal chapter 'Li Changle') Li Changle and Yi Qingfeng

Yuan Dynasty, in the 28th year of Yuan Dynasty (1291), the daughter of Dadu Li family gave birth to a son.

Her husband died in the battle four months ago, and the daughter of the Li family was taken back to her parents' home to raise her baby. The son also took his mother's surname.

The old man of the Li family has already chosen a name for the son of the daughter of the Li family.

If it is a boy, he will be named Changle.If it is a girl, she will be named Ying Huan.

The name Changle means long-term happiness and worry-free.The name Yinghuan means full of joy.

However, the daughter of the Li family gave birth to a boy, named Li and Changle.

——————————————————————————————

Seven years later, in the second year of Yuan Dade. (1298)

In a dirty alley, the boy lay curled up, his dull eyes full of death.

"Have you heard that General Li's house was ransacked by the Emperor yesterday?"

"Is this happening? Tell me what's going on?"

"It is said that it was General Li who colluded with the remnants of the previous government and tried to rebel."

"Ah, I see, this General Li is really..."

"But fortunately, the emperor was wise and discovered this matter early. It is said that letters were found at General Li's house."

The sound of people talking on the street kept coming and reached the boy's ears, which was so harsh.

Everyone was saying that the emperor was wise, but no one stood up and said a word for them, as if his grandfather really did those things.

But he knew that his grandfather didn't.

His grandfather didn't do anything. His grandfather had obviously taken a back seat.

But the emperor was unwilling to let him go.

Just because, before the emperor ascended the throne, when he was still a prince, his grandfather did not stand by him.

Just for this reason, he destroyed his home.

He still remembered that on the last night, his grandfather held him and said many words to him.

"Little Ale, you have to remember that emperors are ruthless people. If you come into contact with the royal family in the future, you must remember not to have a heart-to-heart with them."

"Ruthlessness is the most important thing for an emperor. The emperor's ruthlessness is the true truth."

"When grandpa was young, he fought in all directions for this country, and many of his brothers did not come back alive. But grandpa did not die. Grandpa came back. Grandpa was rich and prosperous, and he had a big family. But now, grandpa didn't expect that , did not die on the battlefield, but died in the hands of the royal family who had fought for most of his life."

Grandpa looked at the armor hanging on the wall that day and spoke slowly to him.

"Little Ale, grandpa can no longer stay with you. You must remember to live well."

"A Chang, take the young master away." The old man waved his hand, and a man dressed in black walked out and saluted him.

"Yes."

He couldn't remember what happened next. At the age of seven, he was taken away by his grandfather's men.

On the way, they were chased by the royal family. In order to protect him, Chang hid him in the nearby woods and lured away the pursuers.

He still remembered what Ah Chang said.

"Young master, keep going west, don't stop, don't look back."

He has no home.

His father died before he was born, and his mother died of illness four years ago.

And now, the royal family has taken away his grandfather and his home.

He has nothing left.

"Tap, tap." The sound of water stains on the soles of shoes sounded. The boy looked up and saw a girl as big as him.

"What's your name? Why are you here?"

That was the first time they met, a gorgeously dressed fairy who looked like a fairy in legend.A man covered in dirt, like an evil ghost from the eighteenth level of hell.

"I..." He opened his mouth, his voice hoarse from not drinking water for a long time.

"My name is Li Changle."

He will not give up his name.

————————————————————————————————————

Another seven years have passed, and the boys and girls have grown up.

The boy also knew the girl's identity. She was the daughter of a famous local businessman. She had been well-dressed and well-fed since she was a child, and she was much loved.

The merchant is too old to have any more children, and the girl is also the merchant's only child, so there is no property dispute at all.

Of course, this also means that she must learn to do business early.

"Ale! Where's my account book!" The girl's voice came from the house, causing the boy who was taking a nap on the tree trunk in the yard to almost fall off.

"Feng'er, how many times have I told you that you should change your habit of throwing things everywhere." The young man stabilized his body and quickly fell to the ground.

The boy was none other than Li Changle, who was rescued seven years ago.

The girl is the benefactor who saved him, Yi Qingfeng.

Of course, he is also the one he needs to protect.

When he was rescued by Yi Qingfeng, her father naturally found out.

Her father didn't make things difficult for him, he just said that he couldn't let him eat and drink for free.

To stay there must be value.

And his grandfather and father are both military generals, so he naturally knows a lot of kung fu.

With these, he also successfully stayed.

Of course, the mission is to protect Yi Qingfeng.

"I won't change it. It's because of you, Ale." The girl opened the window and looked at the boy who jumped down from the tree and said with a smile.

"Then you can't rely on me for the rest of your life. You have to learn to be independent." Li Changle was helpless. He didn't know why Yi Qingfeng became so clingy.

He was obviously very well-behaved before.

"Then wouldn't it be nice if Ah Le stayed with me for the rest of my life?" Yi Qingfeng looked at Li Changle and tilted her head and said.

"I question Miss Yi Qingfeng's ignorance of how long her life is." Li Changle looked at Yi Qingfeng with stern eyes and said helplessly.

"Of course I know, it's only been a few decades." Yi Qingfeng, who felt that she had been underestimated, snorted lightly, and then said as if to show off.

"Then you're still here for the rest of your life." Walking to the window, Li Changle reached out and knocked Yi Qingfeng on the head, saying angrily.

"Ouch, it hurts." Yi Qingfeng covered her head and said pitifully.

Li Changle looked at Yi Qingfeng who was obviously pretending, and finally sighed, reaching out and rubbing Yi Qingfeng's head.

"It doesn't hurt, right?"

Looking at Li Changle, the pitiful expression on Yi Qingfeng's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a smile that showed her little plan had succeeded.

"Well! It doesn't hurt anymore!"

If Li Changle still doesn't know that he has been tricked again, then he is really hopeless.

But who said he was two years older than Yi Qingfeng? Let's give in a little.

"Ale Ale, why don't you help me handle the account books? There are too many, I can't handle them all by myself." Yi Qingfeng looked at Li Changle holding a long sword outside the window and said with a smile.

"No." Li Changle refused without thinking. How could it be possible? He didn't want it.

"Ale~"

"...I'll just help you deal with it a little bit."

"Yeah! Ale is the best!"

(Personal chapter 'Li Changle') A Le and Feng'er

"Ale, Ale, let's go shopping!" Yi Qingfeng said slowly while looking at the boy lying on the tree trunk and taking a nap.

"Feng'er, have you finished processing your account books?" Li Changle reluctantly opened his eyes that he had closed for less than 5 minutes and looked at the girl under the tree.

"It's done~ Okay Ale, just go with me~" Yi Qingfeng looked at Li Changle who opened his eyes and knew that the shopping matter was settled.

"Huh." With a long sigh, Li Changle turned someone over and fell from the tree.

Standing firmly on the ground, Li Changle looked at the smiling Yi Qingfeng in front of him and could only wave to her.

"Let's go, don't you want to go shopping?"

"Come on~"

..........

"Ale, my father is going to sell goods tomorrow, and I want to follow him this time." Yi Qingfeng lay by the window, watching Li Changle practicing his sword in the yard.

"You want to go too? What did the master say?" After hearing Yi Qingfeng's words, Li Changle turned his head and looked at Yi Qingfeng.

"Yes, daddy said that when I grow up, I should learn to take care of family affairs." Yi Qingfeng lay listlessly on the windowsill, looking like a melancholy girl.

"Isn't this great? Didn't you always say that you would help your father share the burden?" Li Changle looked at the girl's melancholy look and stepped forward to touch her little head.

"But I won't be able to see Ah Le when I go." Being touched by Li Changle made Yi Qingfeng even more unhappy.

"Who told you?" Li Changle suppressed a smile and wanted to know what the little girl was thinking.

"I guessed it myself, isn't Ale going to stay at home? I won't be able to see Ale when I leave." Yi Qingfeng pouted her lips and said unhappily.

"Pfft." The young man couldn't hold back his laughter after all. He looked at the girl in front of him, and the smile on his face did not fall for a moment.

"Why are you laughing?" Yi Qingfeng saw Li Changle laughing non-stop and punched Li Changle's arm angrily.

Of course, it's not painful or itchy for Li Changle.
