In Duan Mansion, a not-so-luxury but not-so-low-key carriage was parked in front of the mansion, and two more cars were parked behind the carriage.

Ember was standing at the gate with his hands behind his back to monitor, but if you looked closely, you would find that Ember's sight was not focused, and his eyes were empty, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Master Duan, ah, that's not right, I should call you Master Duan now, I don't know if Master Duan is..."

Occasionally, an official passing by saw this formation and was puzzled, thinking that the imperial court had some kind of overseas assignment, but he himself hadn't heard of it, so he couldn't help asking.

Ember came back to his senses, quickly put a gentle smile on his face, politely cupped his hands in return, and then replied: "Grandfather is old, and the resignation submitted to His Majesty has been approved, and he is preparing to return home."

"Huh? Elder Duan Ge is leaving?"

Embers said yes.

"I haven't heard the news all this time, but Mr. Ge Zhishi came suddenly."

Ember didn't panic in the slightest, she shook her head in a pity look, "Grandfather said that he is old and can't keep up with his physical and mental strength. He has worked hard for most of his life, and now the rest of the time is like going home Village pension, enjoy a few days of leisurely life."

"The year is approaching, why can't we go after the year?"

"We have already persuaded, but my grandfather has decided to go. He said that he has stayed in the capital for a long time, but his hometown has not returned for a long time. My grandfather is homesick. I want to live in my hometown this year. After thinking about it, we are willing to respect my grandfather's decision. .”

The lord echoed a few times, saying that it was the truth that Yu Jin said, and he said politely that he wanted to say goodbye to Duan Chang, Duan Ge, and Yu Jin expressed his apology, saying that Duan Chang was resting, because he was sad to leave, so he didn't see anyone .

Hearing this, the adult stopped insisting, and left after wishing Duan Chang a smooth journey and good health.

After this lord, several court officials and dignitaries from Beijing successively came, their intentions were not different from that lord, and Yu Jian also used similar words to deal with them one by one, and when the carriages were almost filled, Duan Chang walked out supported by Duan Qingrong.

However, Duan Qingrong covered his entire body tightly at this time, only his eyes were exposed. When he went out to meet Ember, Duan Chang quickly got into the car without looking at Ember. The reactions of Zheng and Duan Chang were similar, only Duan Qingrong nodded to Ember. Nodding his head, his gentle eyes met Ember's, revealing a bit of encouragement.

But there was no communication between the two, when Duan Qingrong got into the carriage, the rest of the servants and maids followed, and when everything was ready, the coachman put away the horse stool and sat in front of the carriage, whipped his whip on the horse, Creaking and creaking, the carriages started slowly, one after another, and drove forward slowly in a line, at a faster and faster speed.

But for a moment, the shadow of the carriage had shrunk by a circle. Ember kept watching and seeing him off, and when the leading carriage was about to disappear around the corner, he poked out with one hand and one head.

Duan Qingrong looked back at Ember, and waved at Ember.

Ember also raised her hand, but as soon as she raised her hand, the carriage disappeared at the corner of the street, and disappeared into her eyes along with the farewell person.

The unformed smile at the corner of Ember's mouth was instantly pressed back, and the raised hand could no longer move, and after a few breaths, it fell down powerlessly.

"Goodbye."

Saying goodbye lightly, the exit was blown away by the cold winter wind, floating in the empty world.

There is no echo.

Ember suddenly shivered, first told the people in the house to look after "Miss", then gathered the cloak, put on the hood, took the hand stove carried by Yuan Yue and went out.

"Young master, come back earlier, Yuanyue will prepare hot soup for you to come back!"

Ember smiled silently, and without looking back, she raised her hand and waved, and responded: "Got it."

-

"My lord, are you a top player or a hotel?"

As soon as he entered the inn, the drowsy Xiaoer immediately cheered up and greeted Ember enthusiastically.

Speaking of drowsiness is not because Xiaoer is irresponsible, but that although the year is approaching, the same spring is also approaching, and the spring is only held once every three years, so scholars from all over the country come from all over the country, just like in advance. Occupy a good place to get familiar with the familiar environment, and once you read the books, you want to get a good result in the spring of the coming year.

Because of this, most of the inns in the capital are currently home to scholars, and reading and learning cannot be slackened for a day. These scholars hold up books and chant "Zhihuzheye" every day. "Zhihu Zheye" is like a hypnotic spell, making him want to sleep all day long.

Ember took off his hood, and said to Xiaoer, "I'm looking for someone."

"So it's Mr. Duan. It's really splendid for you to come to this small shop!" Xiao Er complimented with a smile on his face, "I don't know who Mr. Duan is looking for? I'll help you look it up."

Xiao Er was very happy. He had never seen this rumored young master of the Duan family who was like a breeze and a bright moon, but one month ago, this young master Duan who didn't go out much on weekdays suddenly appeared in everyone's field of vision. He was recruited by the court with a roll of amazing policy theory, but he didn't wait until Chun Wei's end.

But thinking about it, Mr. Duan has always been weak, and he hasn't even passed the provincial examination. Although Chinese officials have some objections, they generally accept it well.

"I'm looking for Jiangnan Mansion Wang Xingzhi."

"Mr. Duan is here to find Mr. Wang!" Xiaoer replied cheerfully: "It's a coincidence, this man has an extraordinary appearance and demeanor, but I have seen the most handsome among so many scholars, I happen to have an impression."

"He's in the Tianzi private room on the second floor, the first room on the right hand side of the stairs. The young master has something important to do with the prince, right? How about I lead you up?"

Ember responded with a smile, "Then there will be Brother Lao."

Although Xiao Er said the location is clear, but in order to prevent Xiao Er from guessing her intentions and thinking that she was looking for trouble, he followed his will and asked Xiao Er to lead her up.

Obviously, although Xiao Er was full of smiles and thoughtful service, she was obviously relieved after hearing Ember say "Thank you", Xiao Er's smile became a little more sincere, and her words and deeds became more attentive.

"That's it."

Xiaoer first said to Ember, then raised his hand and knocked on the door, "Prince Wang, are you busy?"

A voice came from inside the door: "What's the matter?"

"Master Duan came to see you?"

"Mr. Duan?" Footsteps gradually approached from inside, and finally stopped in front of the door, and opened the door with a squeak, "Which Duan..."

The rest of the words stuck in his throat, Wang Xingzhi frowned and looked at Ember up and down several times, and then thanked Xiaoer, and asked to open the door to signal Ember to come in.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, the two young masters chat slowly!"

All of a sudden, seeing two good-looking and well-educated people, Xiao Er was in a good mood, humming an unknown tune and stomped downstairs.
