After Xue Ren and Ziyu had packed up, they set out to return to Lin'an. Ziyu's father and mother were reluctant to part with each other and sent them to the village.
After a long walk, Ziyu looked back and saw her parents still standing at the entrance of the village.
Ziyu and Xue Ren waved to them again in a hurry, indicating that they would go back early. The two old people turned and went back.
All the time, Ziyu and Xue Ren turned around and went on their way.
After entering Lin'an City, Xue Ren and Ziyu discuss the time and place to meet each other. Then they send Ziyu to the gate of Shi Miyuan's residence, and they rush back to the location of the branch of the beggars' sect in Lin'an.
According to the time agreed by Xue Ren and his master in advance, Xue Ren should have come back long ago, but Xue Ren has not been back. Xue Ren's master, the leader of the beggars' sect, is very anxious at the helm.
At this time, he was overjoyed to see Xue Ren suddenly return to the branch. He said, "apprentice, you have not come back. It's really worrying for the master. But you are in the mountain to collect medicine. You can't send someone to look for you. What's the matter?"
Seeing that the master was in such a hurry, Xue Ren said to him in a hurry, "I'm really sorry to let the master worry."
After that, Xue Ren reported what happened in the mountains to his master in detail. Of course, Xue Ren only told his master about Ziyu and that they had been dating for a lifetime. Some of the details in the middle were inconvenient to tell his master.
After hearing this, Xue Ren's master laughed and said, "apprentice, you have not only recovered the herbs for me, but also met such a good daughter-in-law. This trip is really fruitful."
Xue Ren was very happy to see that his master didn't object.
Then, after thinking about it, he said to his master, "master, it's just that Ziyu is a member of Shi Miyuan's mansion. I'm afraid there will be something wrong, which will be bad for our beggars' sect."
Xue Ren's master said: "I think too much. Although I haven't seen this girl as a teacher, I think she should be a strange woman who is sincere to you. As for the origin, I don't think it's so important to be a teacher. There will be bad people in the decent. There are not always bad people in the villain's residence. Everything in the world is not absolute. I'm a teacher I believe that as long as you really treat this girl Ziyu, you will be happy and complete in the future. "
When Xue Ren heard his master say so, he said, "since the master said so, I'm relieved. I thank him for his instruction."
The leader of the beggars' sect then said, "apprentice, I brought you up. You are both a teacher and an apprentice, and you are like father and son. Why do you say these words of thanks?"
After that, the leader of the beggars' sect suddenly thought of something and said to Xue Ren in a hurry: "I'm so happy to see you back safely. I just want to talk about personal affairs with you, and I almost forget a big event."
Xue Ren heard the master say that there was a big thing, and quickly asked: "master, what big thing happened in this period of time?"
The leader of the beggars' sect replied: "apprentice, it's like this. After you left, your friend Gao Yifei came to see you. He said that his majesty is going to hold a hunting competition in the royal hunting ground outside Lin'an recently. At that time, Zhao Yun, the king of Yi and Zhao Hong, the prince of Yi, will take part in it. He is afraid that Zhao Yun, the king of Yi, will be hurt, so he wants you to go hunting in the woods In the middle, he secretly protected Zhao Yun, king of Yi, from being hurt. But when Lord Gao came, you didn't come back, so Gao Daren let the teacher tell you. When he came back, he went to find them quickly. "
Xue Ren knew the importance of this matter, so after listening to his master, he immediately asked, "master, when did Lord Gao tell you?"
The leader of the beggars' sect thought carefully and said, "Oh, it should be held tomorrow."
According to his master, the hunting meeting will be held tomorrow. Xue Ren knows that Gao Yifei must be in a hurry.
Therefore, he immediately arranged for his followers to decoct the medicine for the master, then bid farewell to the master and ran to Gao Yifei's residence.
As it was already night, Xue Ren had no scruples. He started his lightness skill and went straight to Gao Yifei's residence.
After arriving at Gao Yifei's mansion and knocking on the door, the gatekeeper invited Gao Yifei's manager out.
Because Xue Ren visited Gao Yifei's residence many times, the housekeeper knew that Xue Ren was a good friend of his family and was very polite.
Xue Ren asked Gao Yifei's housekeeper if he was in the mansion.
The housekeeper knew that Xue Ren must have something important to do when he came to them so late. In addition, he was a good friend of his own, so he didn't hide it. So he told Xue Ren that Gao Yi flew to the mansion of Chen Wenduan, Minister of punishment.
Xue Ren had to rush to Chen Wenduan's residence again. Fortunately, Xue Ren was very familiar with all parts of Lin'an City, and he moved quickly, so he soon arrived at Chen Wenduan's residence.
At this time, Chen Wenduan's brother and sister and Gao Yifei are discussing the hunting meeting tomorrow. They are overjoyed to hear that Xue Ren is visiting. They quickly ask the housekeeper to invite Xue Ren to their study.As soon as Xue Ren came in, Chen Ming yelled, "my third brother, you've come back in time. We're worried about the shortage of manpower. It's a coincidence. It's providence."
Knowing Chen Ming's temper, Xue Ren was always pleasant and said to them with a smile: "I went to pick herbs for my master in the mountains outside Lin'an these days. Today, I just came back to Lin'an branch of our gang and heard from my master that Lord Gao came to see me for something, so I didn't delay. I immediately rushed to Lord Gao's residence, the one in his residence The housekeeper told me that Mr. Gao had come to Mr. Chen's residence, so I had to go from Mr. Gao's residence to Mr. Chen's residence. "
After listening to Xue Ren, Chen Wenduan quickly asked Xue Ren to sit down and have a cup of tea. Then he said, "it's really hard work for Xue helmsman. Please introduce the details to you."
Listening to Chen Wenduan, Gao Yifei immediately tells Xue Ren the whole story in detail.
It turned out that in order to encourage the princes to have the spirit of martial arts, the emperor ningzong decided to hold a hunting competition in the royal hunting ground outside Lin'an City. The first winner of the competition could accept the worship of Ministers together with the emperor ningzong in the morning of the second day.
