In a blink of an eye, the 200,000 troops stationed at Yanmen Pass were about to return to Beijing, and when they received the news, Yue Lingxi and Duanmu Zheng were sitting in Tianque Tower drinking tea.
Upstairs, the wind is strong, lifting the light veil to flutter back and forth, just to dispel the stuffiness in the private room, a pot of tea on the table curling smoke, hazy, the prosperity of the royal capital in full view.
Life never seemed to be so leisurely.
Duanmu Zheng rolled up the blue water sleeve of the lake and poured tea for Yue Lingxi, and said softly: "The dragon well here has always been good, you try it." ” Yue Lingxi took a small sip from the goodness, the taste was indeed more mellow than what she drank in Xiyi, she thought about it, and asked curiously: "This tea leaf is thin, the soup is thick but not turbid, I think it comes from a tea house in the south of the Yangtze River, right?"
” Duanmu Zheng knew that she had read a lot of books, although she had not necessarily tasted them, but as long as she looked at them a few more times, she could probably guess that she was not far from ten, so she smiled and said: "I can't hide anything from your fiery eyes, the Ye family started by selling tea, Jiangnan is their base camp, and even the tea that is paid tribute every year comes from there." ” It turns out that Tianque Tower is also a night house.
Even though he knew that the Ye family was the leading big family in Beijing, Yue Lingxi didn't know its background, and only said in a light voice: "It seems that the Ye family's business is doing a lot. ” "Of course."
Duanmu Zheng stretched his hand out of the window, casually pointing to more than a dozen shops within his field of vision like a platoon of soldiers, "You see, all the signboards with elk emblems are the property of the Ye family." ” The elk coat of arms?
Yue Lingxi stared at the observation for a moment, his gaze suddenly froze, and then he lowered his head to pull the jade pendant around his waist, and finally untied the wrapped tassels and ribbons, and took a closer look, there was a horn carved with the elk in the complex pattern, which was lifelike, and even the posture of raising his head and hooves was not bad at all.
No wonder the house she rented at the night house was so cheap.
Her expression froze, and she couldn't wait to ask, "Sister, who is in charge of the night house?"
” Duanmu Zheng groaned for a moment and said, "You mean the patriarch, right?"
You should have seen it in the barracks, it was Ye Yanxiu, who went out with King Ning and served as the squire of the military department and the supervisor of the army. ” It's not him, Ye Yanxiu recognized her, and she was clearly two people from him.
Yue Lingxi silently ruled out this possibility, and after thinking about it for a while, he asked another question: "Is there anyone else in the Ye family who has the power to mobilize the three armies?"
” Hearing this, Duanmu Zheng couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile: "You girl, say some stupid things, who would dare to do such a thing in this world except Your Majesty and the boss?"
” Yue Ling froze suddenly.
Yes, the answer is in front of her, and she completely ignored it, it was really a blind eye!
That kind of courage in the face of danger, the courage and determination when dispatching troops, how can ordinary generals have?
He is the only son of Emperor Yin and the Queen Mother of the Night, and it is not surprising that he carries the token of the Ye family, and he specially tied this thing for her when he got out of the car......
Everything is on the right track.
"Hey, are you alright?"
Duanmu Zheng saw that her face was blue and pale, and she shook her arm worriedly, she suddenly woke up from her thoughts, and reluctantly bent the corners of her lips and said, "It's okay, I'm distracted." ” It's simple to say, but it's still a mess in my head.
Since he is the Son of Heaven, he must have found out what crime her clan has committed, which is the most feared thing by all emperors throughout the ages, and he is eager to kill all the people involved, but he is surprisingly tolerant, not only did not drive her back to Xiyi, but also escorted her to the royal capital and became an accomplice to hide her identity for her.
She really didn't understand what he was trying to do.
There are still doubts, and there is already a sense of disparity in my heart, the prince is the prince, and Your Majesty ......
It's out of reach Your Majesty.
If possible, this jade pendant must be returned to him.
The mystery that had plagued her for a long time was finally solved, but Yue Lingxi didn't dare to tell Duanmu Zheng about it, for fear that she would be afraid and would take her out of the royal capital immediately, in that case, there would be no way out between her and Chu Jun.
Since she was able to kill the people of Mingyue Tower for Chu Jun, his weight in her heart was self-evident, so she couldn't let her be in a dilemma.
After making up his mind, Yue Lingxi's expression gradually returned to normal, occasionally bowing his head to take a sip of tea, or looking at the scenery downstairs, it was light and light, as if he had never known the truth before, and the piece of jade he was holding did not hurt in his palms.
At this moment, several carriages slowly drove to the east of the ten-mile long street, with wheels inlaid with copper nails in iron and wood, and a five-color brocade canopy on top, and there were snow-white twin horses in front of them, passing through people's sight mightily, and looking at this posture, you can know that it is not an ordinary person.
Duanmu Zheng has been in the royal capital for more than a year, and he has seen all the big and small families, and now he only glanced at the emblem on the carriage and turned his head to Yue Lingxi and said: "This is the Gu family, all of them are tiger generals, and they play a pivotal role in the court, and they can be regarded as one of the best families in the royal capital." ” "What are they going to do?"
The breeze blew up the curtains, and Yue Lingxi vaguely saw a few slender figures from it, but he didn't know what such a large group of female dependents were doing out of the city, Duanmu Zheng smiled knowingly, and explained: "Maybe I want to go to Huguo Temple to worship the Buddha." ” "Worship the Buddha?"
"Well, Mrs.
Gu's favorite little grandson was kidnapped by gangsters half a year ago, and I have been looking for a few months without any news, I thought there was no hope, but last month suddenly came from the border pass, saying that it was found in Mengcheng, no, it was just sent back intact, Mrs.
Gu said that it was blessed by God, and she wanted to go to the Buddha to make a vow."
Yue Lingxi listened without saying a word, but the more he listened, the more he felt that this plot seemed familiar, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the convoy, but unexpectedly, a small head suddenly stretched out from the curtain, looked around for a while, and then looked straight upstairs, and the eyes of the two happened to be square!
Too familiar.
Then the carriage came to an abrupt stop, and a little boy jumped out of the carriage like a monkey, waving his chubby arms and shouting upstairs, "Sister—" Yue Lingxi was stunned for a long time when he heard this familiar tone.
That's a ......
Fate......
Gu Changan was immediately anxious when he saw that she didn't care about people, and ran up with his calves, and a string of maids and grandmothers behind him chased and shouted, stomping on the stairs and making a loud noise, and the movement was so loud that the people in the past stopped and looked at each other.
"Xixi, do you know him?"
Duanmu Zheng finally realized that this commotion was caused by Yue Lingxi, and he was stunned, Yue Lingxi had already jumped to the door before Yue Lingxi could explain anything, his eyes shining, as if he had found a treasure.
"Sister, we meet again!"
He habitually threw himself up, Leng Buding was grabbed by the collar from behind, and he struggled for a long time without moving a step, so he rushed back angrily to see who it was, but after seeing that peach blossom-like delicate face, he immediately fell silently.

"Sister-in-law......"
Ye Sitian snorted, lifted him aside and stood up, and said, "There are no rules again, right?"
Say jump out of the car, jump out of the car, and then scare grandma to take care of your ass!
” "I was wrong."
Gu Changan wrinkled his little face and begged for mercy, and pointed at Yue Lingxi, "Sister-in-law, I was so anxious when I saw my sister who saved my life." ” Ye Sitian was slightly stunned, "You mean......
The one who saved you in Mong?
” Gu Changan nodded like pounding garlic.
The child has a good memory, and there is no reason to recognize the wrong person, so Ye Sitian let go of the hand that restrained him, and quietly looked at Yue Lingxi, who was sitting on the edge of the sandalwood flower case, and his eyes froze slightly when he saw a certain place, and then smiled.
"I heard Chang'an say that the girl left Yanmen Pass early, I don't know where to go, I regret that I can't repay the girl's life-saving grace, but I met it in my own restaurant, it's really fate, what's even more rare is that if Mrs. is also here, it's much easier to say, I don't know if you can introduce me to it?"
She advanced and retreated appropriately, and her words were not leaky, which made it difficult for people to refuse, but fortunately, Duanmu Zheng also had a relationship with her, and knew that she was a frank and neat person, so she responded directly, but she still covered up one or two in her name, so as not to cause trouble.
"Mrs.
Gu, this is my distant cousin, whose name is Ling Xi."
"It turned out to be Miss Ling."
Ye Sitian nodded, and turned to greet Yue Lingxi, "I am Chang'an's sister-in-law, the girl may not be familiar with me, but she must have seen my cousin Ye Yanxiu, right?"
In his letter, he said that the girl was kind-hearted and courteous, and that it was so today. ” It turned out that the Ye and Gu families were in-laws, no wonder Ye Yanxiu took care of Gu Chang'an so much.
Yue Lingxi's mind was focused on figuring out their relationship, but he didn't react to her praise, and only said lightly: "Lord Ye has won the award, Ling Xi is ashamed." ” Hearing this, Ye Sitian's eyes flashed, so fast that it was difficult to notice, but her tone became more and more friendly: "Miss Ling, don't be modest, no matter what, our Gu family has kept this kindness in mind, and if the girl needs help in the future in the Wangdu, just ask, the Gu family is duty-bound." ” "Thank you Mrs.
Gu for your kindness, Ling Xi understands it."
Seeing that she had a hint of refusal, Ye Sitian didn't force it, but said bluntly: "That's it, let's not mention these first, anyway, the coming day is long, and there are many opportunities to meet, Miss Ling will never fail to make me a friend, right?"
” "How so?"
"That's good."
Ye Sitian smiled, took Gu Changan's hand and said goodbye to the two of them, "Today, I won't bother Mrs.
Ru and Miss Ling to catch up, and I'll make an appointment another day." ” Yue Lingxi got up and saluted: "Mrs.
Gu walks slowly." ” The two of them were happy, but they were pitiful that Gu Changan didn't say a few words and was about to separate from Yue Lingxi, and they didn't even have time to ask where she lived, and they were so anxious that they seemed to have thousands of ants crawling, so they didn't dare to resist their sister-in-law's female power, so they had to shout step by step: "Sister, when the weather is cool, let's go to the suburbs to race horses!"
At that time, I will still be waiting for you in Tianque Tower, see you or leave!
” As soon as the words fell, his fleshy figure was obscured by the stairs, and as the footsteps went away, Yue Lingxi glanced downstairs from a distance, one big and one small really re-boarded the carriage, and the convoy began to move slowly forward again.
However, she didn't expect that Ye Sitian's husband Gu Jingyi was also in the car.
Seeing his wife's graceful figure back in sight, he habitually stretched out his arms to hook her into his arms, and was about to ask what was going on upstairs, but when he saw her look mysterious, he suddenly laughed dumbly.
"What's that look on your face?"
"Brother Jing, do you know what I saw in that girl?"
Ye Si spoke sweetly, and gently spit out a few words, "A token of our Ye family." ” Gu Jingyi was slightly surprised and said, "How could she have that thing?"
Is it given by Yan Xiu?
” "I don't see it."
Ye Sitian shook her head, her eyes overflowing with a hint of calculation, "I deliberately tested it just now, she didn't react to Brother Xiu at all, she didn't look familiar." ” "That ......"
Ye Sitian looked at Gu Jingyi's puzzled look, and suddenly laughed: "You are so stupid, what is there to think about?"
There are only two people from the Ye family in the barracks, not Brother Xiu, who else do you say?
” Gu Jingyi opened his mouth and stammered, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "You mean......
The token was given by His Majesty?
” Ye Sitian smiled but did not speak, and his eyes rolled several times, as if he was brewing something.
Not......
Is it to go to the palace to find Brother Xiang to find out the wind, or to make a small report to my aunt first?
