Xiao Ling took a deep breath to regain her composure.
Since he made the decision in the first place, there is absolutely no reason to regret it.
No regrets in making a move.
This is the art of the emperor.
But according to Feng Jingyao's words, the woman ran away directly on the road, and the subsequent trajectory showed that she went to Yangzhou City?
Xiao Lingfeng narrowed her eyes slightly and noticed something was wrong.
How could that woman expose her tracks so easily, and with her temperament, how could she endure the fatigue of traveling and traveling? Compared to Yangzhou City...
She should still be at the foot of the imperial city!
Xiao Ling immediately stood up, a shadow fell, and a low voice sounded: "Go and look for it near the imperial city!"
Feng Jingyao was stunned for two seconds, and then he came to his senses, as if he had just woken up from a dream.
That's right! They have been looking for people everywhere, but they have overlooked one point. Is it possible that Yuan Dai is staying at the foot of the imperial city?
With that woman’s quirky personality, it’s really possible!
In the time it took Feng Jingyao to react, Xiao Ling had already strode out. Feng Jingyao followed him out, only to see him pull over a white horse and turn over, his movements neat and clean.
"Brother Imperial, what are you doing?"
Xiao Ling sneered in his ears, with a proud body, a cold jawline, and a bit of gritted teeth in his voice, "I will catch her myself!"
........
Outside the imperial city, a ray of early morning sunlight shone into the courtyard, accompanied by the chirping of birds. Yan Yangsheng sat on his desk, looking at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of him, a little dazed.
She...did she actually let him learn to write?
In his memory, reading and learning to write were privileges that only other princes had. He could only sit in his small courtyard, gnaw on hard white steamed buns, and watch them come and go.
Occasionally, a naughty and willful prince would not go to school, crying on the ground, and then his mother and concubine would force him to go to school.
Little did he know that for him, this was an extravagant dream.
Now, there was such a person who placed this opportunity in front of him.
Didn't she... buy him back as a slave? Why should she be so nice to him?
Yan Yangsheng knelt down towards Yuan Dai, "I don't dare, I'm of low status and don't deserve to learn to write."
Yan Yangsheng was vaguely aware of the difference between her and those before. She didn't seem to buy him back for his skin, nor for venting. But it was precisely this that made Yan Yangsheng silently more afraid.
He was afraid that her kindness was false, which would make him, who regarded this as his only light, even more ridiculous.
Yuan Dai frowned, a little helpless.
Yan Yangsheng saw her frowning, trembling her eyelashes, lowering her head and calming her expression.
She was angry.
Will she evict him? Or return him to the seller?
That's fine, since he was already dead and deserved to stay in hell, slowly decaying and dying.
However, Yuan Dai's next actions greatly exceeded his expectations.
Yuan Dai actually helped him up personally!
He heard her let out a long sigh, and then a soft voice sounded in his ears: "What's wrong with it? It's just reading and writing. Its value and status are also given by people."
"What's more, everyone is born equal, and you are not allowed to say anything about being humble in the future."
Yan Yangsheng was stunned and felt a thick boiling heat rising from the place where she was holding him.
Are all people created equal?
This word seems a little too incredible.
From birth to now, everything has told him that people are divided into three, six or nine levels, some people are humble, and some people are noble.
But now, she stood in front of him and told him.
Everyone is equal.
Yan Yangsheng murmured: "...Is everyone... equal?"
Yuan Dai nodded, "Yes, think about it, does the prince and general Xiang Ning have any kind of inheritance? No one is born a noble. When they are born, everyone is equal. It is only the private ownership of property that causes this inequality.
equality."
"Hey...this is a bit complicated, but as long as you understand what I mean, you can just treat me as a friend and call me Xiaodai from now on."
"Slave..." I dare not.
Before Yan Yangsheng could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Yuan Dai.
"Don't call me a slave again!"
After saying that, she seemed to feel that her momentum just now was not enough, so she deliberately said harshly: "I won't let you if I yell again!"
These words successfully intimidated Yan Yangsheng. His shoulders shook, and then he slowly said: "I...I understand."
Yuan Dai nodded with satisfaction, "That's right."
"I know that in this dynasty, it may be unrealistic for everyone to be equal, but we can achieve equality to the greatest extent within the limitations of the times."
With that said, she excitedly held Yan Yangsheng's hand, "Will you come with me?"
Yuan Dai's eyes were so bright that he could hardly look away. He was flattered and said: "Me, me?"
"But I don't know anything..."
Even the only martial arts he knew was now useless.
"As long as you are willing! Believe me, the reason why I let you learn to write is because I saw your talent. You will definitely become a very powerful strategist in the future!"
"As long as you work hard, you will be the number one among my men in the future. You can have as many gold and silver jewelry as you want, and as many beauties as you want..."
Halfway through, Yuan Dai stopped quickly.
Oops, I was criticized too much by the boss of the company in my previous life, and now that I have employees, I can’t help but want to criticize him.
I hope Yan Yangsheng doesn't find out.
Fortunately, the thinking of the ancients was relatively simple, and they did not understand the concept of drawing a pie for the time being.
Yan Yangsheng was moved, and there was a warm feeling in his heart.
He even thought that he was giving up on himself, even if she was lying to him, he would admit it.
From then on, he went through fire and water for her without hesitation.
In the following days, Yan Yangsheng studied in the courtyard every day. Yuan Dai hired a teacher for him. As expected, he soon showed his talent in military affairs. He learned things quickly and was very diligent.
Yuan Dai simply recruited several more people and put them under his control for him to manage.
I became a hands-off shopkeeper with peace of mind. I only had to eat and drink every day. If I had nothing to do, I would write in a storybook, go to a teahouse to drink tea and listen to books.
If nothing else, Yuan Dai feels that she can keep showing off like this until she gets old.
Of course, Yuan Dai occasionally pretended to teach Yan Yangsheng a lesson.
At this time, only Yan Yangsheng himself knew that his originally active brain seemed to be rusty. Her words were far away in his ears, and he could only see her peaceful side face and the faint fragrance on her body.
It wasn't until she looked up that she looked away in panic, nodded, and said she understood.
