The sun was shining brightly, youth was soaring.
These proud young men were riding tall horses side by side in the middle of the street, the crowd in the market naturally parted like water.
They were very arrogant, as if they were the centre of the world, the most blessed human beings.
They were very domineering, but this domineering did not make people hate them, instead it made people envious and want to become one of them.
The young man with sharp eyebrows who spoke was called Chu Xun, a member of the royal family of West Wind Kingdom. His father was an idle prince, but an idle prince was still a prince. Therefore, among the people present, his status was the most distinguished.
"Yes, that Gao Qiu is too annoying, sister Qiji did not whip him, I also want to whip him — —" A cute girl with an oval face said with a smile. "However, if I whip him, I certainly would not be as powerful and domineering as sister Qiji. She did not say a word to him, if he was not pleasing to the eye she would whip him — — until he cried and knelt on the ground begging for mercy. "
"Xiaoxing, this is the difference in temperament — — Qiji is one of the three bright moons of the kingdom, you are one of the three pets of the kingdom, can you draw the same effect?" A sturdy young man wearing a green shirt joked with a smile. It seemed like he liked Xiaoxing very much, when he spoke, his eyes were full of joy as he looked at her.
"Liu Long, you're a pet, you're a big black horse, big stupid cow — — So annoying." Xiaoxing did not like being called a pet, she retorted in a dissatisfied tone.
Although he was with a lot of people, Chu Xun's mind was completely focused on the girl in white, Lu Qiji.
He looked straight ahead, one hand holding the reins and the other hand gripping the hilt of his sword, maintaining a vigilant posture similar to Xiaoxin.
"Qiji, this time Grandfather Lu is most likely going to succeed in becoming the left minister, right?" Chu Xun said with a smile.
Hearing Chu Xun's question, everyone around held their breath, waiting to hear some unknown gossip. It should be said that all the people present were children of official families, they had been influenced by what they saw and heard since they were young, so they more or less understood the current situation. Now Lu Xingkong's attempt to become the left minister was something that the entire Tiandu, and even the special class of the entire West Wind Kingdom were very concerned about. If Lu Xingkong succeeded in becoming the Left Prime Minister with the position of the highest leader in the military, then how powerful would the Lu family, who held the military and political power, be?
As the beneficiaries of each family's benefits, if they could bring back some important news for their families or parents, wouldn't that be a great merit?
"If the Emperor of Han is willing to stand up and recommend, then there is a 90% chance of success." Lu Qiji said expressionlessly.
Chu Xun smiled bitterly and said, "My father will naturally support Grandpa Lu, but he also has his own difficulties. Grandpa Lu wanted to be the Prime Minister, but the Cui family naturally tried their best to stop him. The most important thing was the attitude of the grandfather of the Song family, for some reason he did not like Grandpa Lu, and even gave him an inelegant nickname 'Sha Ying'. Many people said that the old man might not be able to hold on for long, but the royal family still valued his attitude. If the royal family attached importance to it, it would appear that they were biased. My father is alone and weak, he can't affect the Emperor's decision. "
"The Cui family obstructs, the Song family hates, the royal family doesn't like it, and you still say my grandfather is 90% sure of breaking through to the Prime Minister? Chu Xun, what are your intentions? "The girl in white said in a sharp and disdainful tone.
Chu Xun was taken aback for a moment, then shrugged his shoulders and said: "Look, Qiji caught my mistake and ruthlessly stabbed me with a knife. You must be careful when you talk to Qiji. We're not afraid of a hard knife, but afraid of a soft knife. "
Everyone burst into laughter, Chu Xun's embarrassment was easily resolved.
"Forget it, let's not talk about national affairs. That kind of thing is not far away for us, but we're young and weak, we don't have the power to change the situation. Let's talk about school, the college entrance examination results are coming out soon. Qiji, are you sure you want to go to Westwind University? "
"How can there be a definite thing in this world?" Lu Qiji pondered for a moment before she said: "That person of the Cui family is coming back, right?"
"I heard that Cui Xiaoxin applied to Westwind University, with her academic performance there's no problem. Calculating the time, most likely she'll be back within a month? When she comes back, our Tiandu will become more and more lively — — "A youngster in embroidered clothes said with a flushed face.
"I've long heard that Wan Xi has a crush on Cui Xiaoxin, now it looks like it's true — — look how excited he is? Now Cui Xiaoxin hasn't come back yet, if she comes back, will you still be able to say anything? "Liu Long said with a teasing expression.
"Exactly. If Cui Xiaoxin comes back, our Tiandu will be lively. Is Cui Xiaoxin alone or a team? Can she alone match up to half of our city? "Xiaoxing said in a dissatisfied tone. She's Lu Qiji's die-hard fan. Among the three bright moons of the kingdom, she likes the cold and cool Lu Qiji the most, the other two people are not even in her eyes. "If you like, then go play with her."
Wan Xi scowled miserably. "I'm just saying, it's you guys who brought it up — —"
Chu Xun smiled, looked at Lu Qiji and said: "Wherever you go, I'll naturally go there."
With his father's status, he can choose any famous school in the kingdom. Besides, he's an outstanding person, whether it's literary knowledge or martial arts level, he's one of the best among the younger generation of Tiandu. Whichever school he wants to go to, that school will naturally welcome him.
Chu Xun's words were no different than a confession to Lu Qiji.
I'll follow you wherever you go, anyway, I want to be with you.
"As you wish." Lu Qiji's ponytail swayed as she swept a glance behind her. "You guys have to come too."
"Okay, okay." Xiaoxing, who was the least scheming, nodded repeatedly. She obviously wants to be with her idol, even if Lu Qiji is not willing, she will fight for it.
The others smiled awkwardly and did not clearly answer Lu Qiji's question.
Please, they're not fools — — Lu Qiji used them as a cover to reject Chu Xun, although it sounds very tactful, but for the injured young man, what's the difference between 'I don't like you' and 'you're a good person'?
Chu Xun smiled, took the initiative to say to his companions: "Everyone together, the more the merrier."
Only then did the atmosphere become harmonious, and everyone started laughing and joking again.

Knock knock knock — —
Li Muyang gently knocked on his neighbour's courtyard door.
Creak — —
The courtyard door opened, aunt Zhao stood in the courtyard, looking at Li Muyang at the doorway, and asked with a smile: "Muyang, what's the matter?"
"Aunt Zhao, my mum told me to bring you some snacks, to thank you for your help last time." As Li Muyang spoke, he handed over a box of pastries. "If you hadn't come home to inform us in time, I don't know what would have happened to the shop. My family will remember this kindness, but I don't know how to thank you, so I brought a box of snacks. You eat first, if it's delicious I'll bring more over. "
Aunt Zhao smiled as she received the box, but pretended to be polite and said: "Muyang, why are you so polite? We're neighbours, as the old saying goes, it's better to be close than distant relatives, it's just a matter of lifting a finger. If something happened to our family, wouldn't you also have to run errands for us? Pah pah pah, what am I saying, everyone's fine, fine — -right, is your mum alright? "
"She's fine, we're all fine." Li Muyang said with a smile. "Aunt Zhao, what's the name of the uncle I told you to inform? Our family also wanted to bring a box of snacks to thank him. "
"How would I know his name — –" Aunt Zhao abruptly stopped talking, and said with a flustered expression: "What uncle? I just passed by the door and saw him, so I hurried over to your house to inform you — – "
"Aunt Zhao, don't worry, I don't have any bad intentions, I really just want to thank him. If it wasn't for that uncle's help, our family would be in big trouble. "Li Muyang's face was simple and honest, without any hostility. "Aunt Zhao, someone saw that uncle. Just tell me. How can you do a good deed without leaving your name? "
Aunt Zhao's face was in a difficult position, she looked around and said: "Muyang, it's not that auntie doesn't want to tell you, auntie really doesn't know what his name is. I was working in the shop when a man dressed in black walked in, he gave me a gold coin and said something happened to your shop, he told me to immediately go to your house and inform people to help — – "
Li Muyang nodded with a smile and said: "He told you to ask for help, you should have informed my father — -you ran from Water Willow Street to Hubu Alley, halfway through you would have passed my father's workplace. Why didn't you go find him? "
"I also thought about it at the time. But that man told me to come to your house to find you, he told me to inform you — – I didn't think too much and hurried over — – "
"He also told you not to tell anyone that he told you to come to our house to ask for help, right?"
"That's what he said — –" Aunt Zhao nodded and said: "Muyang, how do you know everything?"
Li Muyang pointed to his head and said in a declarative tone: "Aunt Zhao, I'm not stupid."
