He had already stayed in the Imperial Residence for a month. All the guards in the mansion respected him very much. The safety of the mansion had always been very good, and there had been no accidents.
This morning, Li Feng returned from his patrol in the front yard. When he passed by the backyard garden, he suddenly saw a piece of silk on the ground. Li Feng picked up the silk, and the faint fragrance of a young girl made Li Feng's heart skip a beat.
"Little thief, you have guts. How dare you come to the back garden to steal?”Suddenly, a light shout sounded.
Li Feng looked up and saw a little girl standing there with her hands on her hips. Li Feng was about to speak.
A gentle voice sounded from behind the little girl,""Xiaolan, who are you talking to?”A white-robed fairy appeared behind the little girl.
It was her, Diao Chan. Li Feng felt his heart beating faster.
The little girl pointed at Li Feng and said," Miss, this little thief is sneaking around here. Look, he stole your silk."”
Diao Chan followed Xiao Lan's direction and saw a familiar young man standing there. He was holding his own silk handkerchief and turned to Xiao Lan,""Don't talk nonsense. Young master, I think I've seen you somewhere before.”Her voice was as gentle as water.
Li Feng felt like he was about to melt as he stood there foolishly.
"Hey, Miss is asking you a question. Why are you in a daze? Miss, he doesn't look like a good person. There's no need to be so polite with him." Xiao Lan pouted.
Li Feng knew that he had lost his composure after hearing Xiao Lan's words. He blushed and bowed,""I am the new head instructor of the residence, Li Feng. I saw a piece of silk on the ground when I passed by the garden just now, so I picked it up. I didn't know it belonged to Miss, please forgive me.”
Hearing Li Feng's words, Diao Chan replied with an "oh" and said,"I remember now. You're the instructor who won the last martial arts competition. It's my girl's fault for offending the instructor. Xiaolan, apologize to him."
Hearing Diao Chan's words, Xiao Lan immediately added,""He's that instructor. I heard the people below praise him and say how good he is. I thought he was an old man. So he's so young. Sorry for offending you just now, Instructor Li."
Li Feng smiled and said,"I don't deserve it." It's my fault. I was too rash." He turned his head and handed over the silk handkerchief." Since it belongs to Young Lady, please keep it."”
Diao Chan received the silk and bowed slightly, saying,""Thank you, Instructor."
Li Feng scratched his head." Don't call me instructor. I'm not used to it." You can call me Li Feng or Tian Xing. I got goosebumps when the instructor called me.”
"Hehe, you're really interesting. Alright, I'll call you Li Feng from now on." Xiao Lan said with a smile.
"Since you don't like it, then we'll call you Young Master Li." Diao Chan also smiled. Last time, I saw Young Master Li's martial arts skills were extraordinary. I don't know where Young Master Li came from. Why did he come to the Imperial Residence to be a teacher?”
Li Feng repeated what Steward King Meng had said, saying that he was here to study and had no money to return home.
"Young Master is really rare." Diao Chan said after hearing this. Why don't you go and ask Godfather to help you return home?"
"Thank you for your concern, Miss. I still want to see more in Luoyang." Besides, a gentleman doesn't accept other people's money. I have to work hard with my own hands.”
When Diao Chan heard this, she could not help but look at Li Feng in a new light. She felt that this youth was very different from the rest.
After that, Diao Chan and Li Feng gradually became more and more in contact. Diao Chan felt that Li Feng was not someone that ordinary boastful disciples could compare to. Li Feng was skilled in both literature and martial arts, and he was usually very diligent in his studies. Slowly, he had a good impression of him.
The moon on the 15th was always so round.
Today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Imperial Residence was bustling with activity. There were lanterns and streamers everywhere.
At this moment, Li Feng was assigning tasks to the guards."Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Most thieves like to strike during festivals, so you have to be even more vigilant today. You guys go to the front yard to patrol, and you guys go to the back yard to change shifts every two hours. You guys take turns patrolling. Alright, that's it. You guys go ahead."
After everyone left, Li Feng looked at the bright moon in the sky and thought of his family. He couldn't help but feel sad. Thinking of Su Shi's term, he couldn't help but recite," When will the bright moon appear? I ask the blue sky when I drink. I wonder what year it is in the palace in the sky. I want to ride the wind and return, fearing that the high place is too cold. Dancing and making clear the shadow, how can it seem to be in the world? Turning to the vermilion pavilion, leaning low against the door, shining sleepless, what is often round like parting? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon has its ups and downs. It is difficult to complete this since ancient times. I hope that people will live long, thousands of miles together with cicadas.”
"Young Master, you are so literary." Diao Chan's voice sounded from his body.
Li Feng turned his head and saw Diao Chan walking over with a smile. He could not help but smile awkwardly and said,"So it's Miss Diao Chan. This one's emotions were stirred at the sight, I'm truly sorry to have seen such a scene.”Brother Su, I'm really sorry to steal your masterpiece.
Diao Chan looked at Li Feng affectionately and said,""I always thought that Young Master's martial arts were extraordinary, but I didn't expect Young Master's literary talent to be so good.”
The two of them were chatting when suddenly, a voice came from the backyard." Thieves! Where are you running to?"”
When Li Feng heard this, he immediately ran towards the backyard. A black shadow came to welcome him. Li Feng hurriedly used a grappling technique to grab that person's wrist. When the thief saw Li Feng attack, he knew that he had encountered an expert. He immediately dodged to the side and avoided Li Feng's capture. At this moment, Diao Chan happened to follow. When the thief saw a woman, he immediately grabbed Diao Chan and placed a sharp knife across Diao Chan's neck. He shouted at Li Feng,"Don't come over."
"Miss, let her go." It was Xiaolan's voice.
At this moment, the guards had already surrounded them. Li Feng stopped everyone and said,"Don't go up, or you'll hurt Miss Diao Chan.”"Release Miss Diao Chan and I'll let you leave safely."”
The thief didn't believe him. He shouted," All of you, step back. I'll let her go when I get out." If you act rashly, I'll kill this little girl.”
After saying that, he held Diao Chan hostage and slowly moved out step by step.
Li Feng secretly drew out his sword and faced the moonlight, allowing the light to reflect. The light pierced the thief's eyes and made him black. Li Feng took advantage of this time to step forward and kick the dagger in the thief's hand away, pulling Diao Chan out. Diao Chan fell into Li Feng's arms. The two of them were stunned. They looked at each other and the whole world stopped. At that moment, the two sparks of love collided.
"Be careful." Li Feng suddenly woke up and saw that the thief had picked up his dagger and rushed forward in anger. The dagger was only a few inches away from Diao Chan. Li Feng could not rush Diao Chan anymore. In a moment of desperation, he grabbed the dagger. Then, Li Feng raised his leg and kicked the thief away. The guards rushed forward and caught the thief. Diao Chan turned around and saw that the dagger was firmly nestled in Li Feng's hand. Blood flowed down the dagger. Diao Chan cried out in surprise and grabbed Li Feng's hand."You are injured." He turned around and shouted at Xiao Lan,"Hurry up and get some bandages and medicine."”
Xiao Lan replied and immediately ran back into the house. After a while, she ran back with a cloth and medicine in her hands.
Diao Chan took the cloth and medicine, took the dagger from Li Feng's hand, and sprinkled some medicinal powder on the wound. Li Feng hummed, and Diao Chan raised her head and asked in pain,"Does it hurt?"
Li Feng shook his head." It doesn't hurt. It's fine."”
Diao Chan's tears involuntarily fell, causing Li Feng to involuntarily stretch out his hand to wipe her tears. He said,""I'm really fine. Don't cry, I'm willing to cripple my hand for you.”
"Have you caught the thief?" Wang Yun came out.
The two of them immediately separated. Diao Chan walked up to Wang Yun, bowed, and said,"Greetings, foster father. The thief has been captured by Instructor Li. It was just that Instructor Li was injured when he saved his son.”
Wang Yun looked at Li Feng and said,""Thank you for saving my son, Instructor Li."
"You're too polite, Old Master." Li Feng said humbly. The safety of this residence is my responsibility. I only did what I should do.”
Wang Yun nodded and smiled." It's rare for a young man to be so humble." Instructor Li is indeed a talent."
After this incident, Li Feng and Diao Chan's relationship had a qualitative leap. The two of them would occasionally go out on dates to talk about their lovesickness. After this incident, Wang Yun trusted Li Feng even more. He would discuss everything with Li Feng and treat him as a confidant.
