On the official road on the outskirts of the city, a horse ran wildly on the road out of control, and the person on the horse was about to be thrown off. If he fell, he would either die or be injured.
At the critical moment, a young man in red came riding quickly, jumped onto the opponent's horse, pulled out a dagger and plunged it into the crazy horse's neck. The horse fell down with a bang, and the young man in red took the opportunity to hold the person on the horse and stood aside.
The young man in red looked at the horse lying on the ground with some confusion. The horse's eyes seemed to be red just now. He went forward to check on the horse, which was almost dead. Then he stood up and looked at the man who was still terrified and said, "The horse was tampered with. If you hadn't met me, you would have been seriously injured if not dead."
Zhuang Heng came back to his senses after hearing what the young man in red said. He was stunned when he saw his appearance. The red mole between his eyebrows made him look like a god. He was so handsome that there was no one like him in the world. The red clothes he wore were passionate and fluttering, burning his eyes and his heart.
Wang Chenxi saw the person opposite him looking at him blankly, and he wanted to tease him. He stepped forward and said, "Am I good-looking?"
Zhuang Heng came back to his senses, lowered his head and coughed awkwardly. This young man was really bold. "Young Master, you have a heavenly figure, so you are naturally beautiful."
Wang Chenxi liked to listen to what was said, but he didn't waste any time. Besides, there were a few people coming over here. He smiled and said, "You have good vision. Let's go."
After saying this, he mounted his horse and headed towards the city.
Zhuang Heng raised his hand to call him, but the horse was running so fast that he withdrew his hand with some regret, thinking that he had not thanked him yet and did not even know his name.
"Brother Zhuang, are you okay?" Fang Qi walked forward and pulled Zhuang Heng to take a look. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he was okay. God knows that the horse was running forward madly at that time, and seeing that Zhuang Heng was about to fall, his heart was stuck in his throat.
Then he saw the horse with blood on its neck and asked, "Did you kill it?"
Zhuang Heng shook his head and glanced at the dead horse, his brows full of anger. This horse wanted to kill him, so don't blame him for being cruel.
Returning home, Zhuang Heng looked at his mother's tablet and said, "Mom, you always taught me to be kind and tolerant. Look, I've been giving in for so many years, but they still want to kill me. I don't want to give in anymore, and I won't give in anymore."
Wang Chenxi arrived at the door of his home. This was the new house that his brother had bought for his marriage. It was much bigger than the original one. He asked someone to lead the horses to the stable. The door was decorated with many red silks and lanterns. Since the engagement last year, his brother was finally going to get married.
"Dad, Dad, I'm back." When he reached the backyard, he shouted towards the inner room.
Cheng Chen and Wang Yu were counting the invited guests at home, fearing that someone might have been missed. There were also matters concerning tomorrow's wedding reception and the decoration of the new house. Dabao's wedding had to be perfect.
Wang Yuchengchen put down what he was doing and walked out, only to see his brother rushing in.
"Didn't your father Ling come?"
Wang Chenxi walked into the house, poured a cup of tea, drank it, and then said, "I'm here. She's in the back. Aunt Meng is here too. I got here first on horseback. I have a gift for Sister Lele."
As she spoke mysteriously, she took out a jewelry box from her bosom and opened it to show Cheng Chen. Inside was a hairpin inlaid with pearls. The pearls were round and had a warm luster. The pearls were about six points in size and had no flaws at all. This pearl must be hard to come by.
Wang Yu looked at the hairpin, then glanced at Erbao. This was probably something only Ling Chufeng could get. "You asked your father Ling for it, right?"
That is to say, Ling Chufeng dotes on him and gets him any good things he comes across. Over the years, when asked why he doesn't get married, he always says that he hasn't met someone he likes and has spent all his attention on Erbao. Does this mean he will end up living alone? But he always says that it's good that he has Erbao to see him off.
"No, Aunt Meng gave it to me. I had two hairpins made, one for Sister Lele and one for Dad."
Then he took out a box from his arms and handed it to Cheng Chen, "Dad, open it and take a look."
Cheng Chen was surprised that there was one for him. He took it and opened it. The pearls were about the same size, but the style of the hairpin was a little different. He smiled and said, "It looks very beautiful."
"As long as Dad likes it, let Dad try it on you." He winked at Cheng Chen.
Cheng Chen slapped him in annoyance, but still let Wang Yu bring it to him.
"It looks very nice." Wang Yu replaced the hairpin on his hair, looked at it for a while, and said to Cheng Chen.
Cheng Chen looked at Wang Yu saying it was beautiful so seriously, and he felt a little embarrassed in front of the child.
"It looks good, right? I won't bother you anymore. I'm going to find Sister Lele." She winked at Cheng Chen and then ran out.
"This kid is still so impetuous."
Wang Yu pulled Cheng Chen to sit at the table and said, "It's really beautiful, but it's mainly because Achen is beautiful."
Cheng Chen looked at Wang Yu with a red face. After so many years, Dabao was about to get married, but her husband still liked to say these nice words to make her happy. Their love never diminished, but became more and more mature with time.
Cheng Chen couldn't help but kiss her husband and leaned into his arms. Wang Yu took the opportunity to hold him on his lap and deepened the kiss.
The two of them stayed in the house for a while and then came out. The bride was going to be picked up tomorrow, and there were still many things to prepare.
Zhuang Heng thought he would never see the young man in red again, but he saw him again the next day. He and Wang Chenze were colleagues in the Hanlin Academy and had passed the palace examination in the same year.
So he saw the young man who saved him at Wang Chenze's wedding banquet, carrying a bowl and going to the bridal chamber. Later, he found out that he was Wang Chenze's younger brother Wang Chenxi.
Although Wang Chenze's father, Wang Yu, had resigned from his official position, his deeds were still very well-known in the capital. He compiled books, investigated corrupt officials, and built Dongyi. During his years as an official, he did everything very well. The emperor personally appointed Wang Chenze as the third place in the imperial examination because his father was a third place in the imperial examination. The fact that two third places in the imperial examination were in the same family became a hot topic in the capital.
A few days later, Zhuang Heng brought gifts to Wang Chenze's house. Wang Yu also knew Zhuang Heng. He was the top scholar in Dabao's class and the eldest son of Zhuang Zirui. He and Zhuang Zirui had worked together in the Hanlin Academy for several years and were quite familiar with each other.
Thinking that he and Dabao were officials in the same dynasty, he must be here to see him, so he asked Dabao to receive him directly.
Dabao was a little confused as to why this person came to his house. Apart from their official interactions, they had basically no interactions in private.
Zhuang Heng also directly stated the purpose of his visit. "That day, your brother saved me, but he passed away before I could thank him. I only found out a few days ago that he was your brother, so I came here today to thank you."
Erbao didn't mention this matter when he came back. He didn't expect that this would happen on the road. Since it was Erbao who saved people, he accepted the words of thanks. "It's okay. Brother Xi has a carefree personality and won't care about these things."
Zhuang Heng smiled and said, "After all, he saved my life. Now that I know, I still have to come and thank him in person. I want to thank him in person."
Wang Chenze was just about to speak when he saw Lele coming in with tea, and Erbao was with her.
Song Shuqing served tea and snacks to the two of them, "Husband, Erbao came to see me, I'm going out with him first."
"Wait." Since Erbao is here, let him speak in person. Wang Chenze stopped Erbao.
