The whole night, the Prince's Mansion was not peaceful.
Long Zhi was not here, so he urgently dealt with the matter of Long Zhao leading his troops back to the imperial capital.
The six important ministers were also brought into the palace.
If something like this happened, it would be quite serious.
There have been rumors about forced harems since ancient times, but I didn't expect that such a thing would happen now.
If it were really spread to future generations, all the civil and military officials of this generation would be mentioned and despised.
The old emperor looked very angry, but whether he was angry at Long Zhao for not succeeding or angry at him for leading his troops to force the palace was unknown.
In the Prince's Mansion, Ye Lu's meditation in the early morning had just ended, and she felt relaxed.
She only felt that everything was wonderful, and she had even forgotten about the death of so many people last night.
After arranging her long hair, she suddenly turned around and saw a tall figure walking in from the door.
Seeing him, Ye Lu couldn't help but curled up his red lips, "How did you find something?"
Shen Tuyi's face was cold, and because of the coldness, the evil aura on his body was very strong.
"Nothing was found."
He led people out of the city overnight to search for the place where Ye Lu felt it, but they searched all over the mountain and found no one, not even a trace of anyone.
"Forget it, you can't find it if you can't find it."
Ye Lu shook his head slightly.
She didn't really care.
After all, some things couldn't be avoided when they came.
"Since someone is watching you in the dark, you need to find him out."
Shen Tuyi didn't realize this, and these hidden dangers cannot be left behind.
Looking at him, Ye Lu chuckled, "Okay, these things are not my strong point.
I have to work with City Lord Shentu.
But now I have to go to the north.
Doesn't City Lord Shentu want to protect me?
So, is it with me?"
"Peer" "Okay."
With a slight nod, Shen Tuyi would naturally go with her.
Especially when there was an unknown person hiding in the dark, he needed to stay close to her.
"Sure, let's pack up and set off."
There was nothing going on in the imperial capital at the moment, and power was competing for power, and she couldn't help.
After a brief tidying up, the plainclothes black-armored soldiers brought by Shen Tuyi were divided into several groups, riding horses and driving vehicles, and left the imperial capital first.
It's like dressing up in disguise when entering the imperial capital.
Wrapped in pure white cloaks, Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi planned to leave, but they could not go together and had to be separated.
Mai Tang put some cakes in Ye Lu's hand and said, "You still have to be careful and listen to the Lord Shentu City more and don't always make your own decisions."
"Sister, don't worry about it.
If something really happens, go to Ziji Temple to find the source.
If he doesn't help, tell him that when His Highness ascends the throne in the future, he won't even think about staying in Ziji Temple.
"Yes."
Ye Lu said with a smile while holding the cake.
Mai Tang nodded, "Okay, I understand, please take care of yourself along the way."
"Well, let's go."
Waving his hands, Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi quickly left the Prince's Mansion.
One after the other, Ye Lu walked in front, as if she were the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, but it was really strange for her, the eldest daughter, to be alone.
But in this imperial capital, there are all kinds of strange people, and her appearance is not unusual.
As long as you don't carry any weapons or anything suspicious, you will be allowed to go.

Shen Tuyi was wearing a black gauze hat, which completely covered his face, but he was tall and tall, and he was not an ordinary person no matter how he looked.
Ye Lu went out of the city gate first, but Shen Tuyi was blocked.
The city gate guards asked him to take off his hat and inspect his whole body.
Standing on the city protection bridge, Ye Lu watched from a distance.
If they really dared to take off Shen Tuyi's bamboo hat, they would be punished.
Just when they were about to take off Shen Tuyi's bamboo hat, he suddenly raised his hand, holding something unknown in his palm, and the forbidden army immediately took a few steps back.
The next moment, Shen Tuyi walked out of the city gate, and Ye Lu stood there watching, unable to help but laugh.
The main reason is that he doesn't look like an ordinary person, so if he goes to other cities, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate will probably have to check him out.
After a moment, Shen Tuyi came closer.
Ye Lu turned around with crooked eyebrows, and the two of them walked off the city bridge one after the other.
On the official road, plainclothes black-armored soldiers were riding horses, and carriages were parked there.
They had been waiting for some time.
After getting on the carriage, the team set off towards the north.
Although the cities in the north have different city owners, they all seem to be similar and very powerful.
Just look at the eldest lady in Macheng that day and you will know that a woman is so tough, let alone a man.
However, the toughness in the north is also different from that in the Great Jin.
The Great Jin is tough regardless of the body shape of men and women, while the northern Qi is tough at heart.
Even though some people are petite in appearance, their strong temperament cannot be ignored.
Yelu had never been to the north.
Although he wanted to enjoy the scenery, the cold at this time was so oppressive that people just wanted to hide in a warm place.
Shen Tuyi didn't seem to have any abnormality.
He had been in the southern country for so many years, and he seemed to have adapted well to the northern weather.
Yecheng is a city near the northwest.
Long Zhi is most worried about this city because it is not only adjacent to the border but also has 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers and horses.
The maximum number of soldiers and horses in an ordinary city cannot exceed 50,000, except for those near border fortresses, where the number of troops can be doubled.
And it was this city that first showed its greed.
The city lord Ye Zhen was in his forties.
Unlike the old and frail city lord of Tianma City, he would still live for many years.
If Long Zhi comes to power and something happens that requires a military confrontation, Long Zhi's interests will be harmed.
Therefore, if it can be solved now, then it will be solved well.
After entering Yecheng, the team first reorganized at an inconspicuous inn.
Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi entered the inn one after another.
Ye Lu covered his face, while Shen Tuyi was also quite mysterious.
There was a hot stove in the room in the inn.
After entering the room, Ye Lu rushed directly to the stove, eager to plunge into it.
"Be careful of burning your face."
One hand grabbed her hood, pushed back, and pulled Ye Lu away from the stove. away from the stove.
"It's so cold, I'm going to freeze to death.
If you don't stop, you'll be able to eat frozen human flesh tomorrow."
Ye Lu stretched her hand close to the stove, her fingers were numb from the cold.
"Exaggeration."
Shen Tuyi threw the bamboo hat on the table and couldn't help but pursed his thin lips after listening to Ye Lu's words.
Even though it's cold outside, it's still late autumn and winter hasn't arrived yet.
"Of course you can't feel it because of your thick skin, but I can't.
Look at my face.

Is it already red?"
As she said that, she turned her face to him to see.
Walking up to her, Shen Tuyi raised his hand to hold her chin, his deep eyes wandering on her face as if caressing her, "My nose is red."
After saying this, he pinched it with the index and middle fingers of his other hand.
She pressed her nose slightly hard, causing Ye Lu to cry out.
"It hurts so much.
My nose is going to fall off.
I've been having a good time these days.
Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
As she said that, she kicked her foot over, but Shen Tuyi dodged it gracefully, moving leisurely.
Looking at it, Ye Lu couldn't help but smile, "It's quite good-looking.
No wonder Mai Tang's walking posture is different after he learned martial arts on his own.
It seems that his learning was not in vain."
"You're interested, you lazy idiot."
Shen Tuyi raised her eyebrows slightly, but Shen Tuyi didn't think she had the perseverance.
"Don't provoke me, otherwise I will really learn.
When the time comes, you will be my defeated general."
Ye Lu took off his cloak and every word was frightening.
"Not only is she getting thicker and thicker, her bragging is also getting better and better."
Shen Tuyi didn't believe it.
Her laziness was so deep in her bones that no medicine could cure it.
Raising his eyebrows, Ye Lu laughed and then swung his fist towards his nose.
Shen Tuyi didn't even want to hide, he raised his hand and easily grabbed her little fist.
However, just when he grabbed her fist, Ye Lu flew up with one leg and headed straight for Shen Tuyi's lower body.
The target is where a man is most vulnerable.
It seemed that Shen Tuyi didn't expect that she had this move, so she got out of the way hastily, but her foot still kicked his leg.
Although this kick does not have much power, if it is kicked in the right place, it will be quite painful.
With a strong hand, he directly pulled the person who attacked him into his arms, wrapped her left arm around her neck and pulled her to the right side.
She leaned back in his arms, and her whole body was under his control.
Ye Lu laughed, even though his arms were wrapped around his neck like a rope, he still found it funny.
He looked down upon her so much that he almost didn't hide away now.
"Who did you learn such a dirty trick from?
And if you use it on me, do you want to be a widow in the future?"
He lowered his head and pressed it against her ear.
As the words fell, Shen Tuyi bit her ear directly.
"It hurts, it hurts.
I was wrong.
Of course, Mai Tang taught me this trick.
She said to use this trick if you encounter a gangster."
He tilted his head to hide, but he couldn't avoid it at all.
"I'm a gangster."
Shen Tuyi let go of her ear and put his other hand around her waist.
His arm was like an iron bar, strangling Ye Lu so hard that he couldn't breathe.
"Just for fun, Lord Shentu's martial arts is very strong, so he will definitely be able to dodge.
It's no longer possible, I can't breathe anymore."

As he said that, Ye Lu stuck out his tongue, indicating that he really couldn't breathe.
After relaxing a little, Shen Tuyi turned her around and said, "Although this trick is a bit dirty, it is indeed feasible to deal with some unscrupulous people.
However, you cannot use it on me, otherwise I will beat you into a fool."
He knocked hard on her forehead, causing Ye Lu to close his eyes.
"If you knock a few more times like this, I will really become a fool.
It hurts so much."
Ye Lu complained, and Ye Lu's forehead turned red as expected.
If there was a cold snort, Shen Tuyi raised his hand and rubbed her forehead, and then said: "If it is really useful, you can use more strength.
The force of the kick just now was too small to hurt someone.
To the point where I can’t even stand up, and it will actually irritate people.”
"You, you were calling my tricks dirty just now, and now you are teaching me again."
Ye Lu was speechless and couldn't help laughing.
"Listen carefully to what I say, it will be in your favor."
Shen Tuyi scolded slightly with a cold face, and Ye Lu immediately nodded.
"Okay, listen carefully.
After hearing the words of City Lord Shentu, my mind is clear.
Even if I am seriously ill, I will have to sit up in death.
Listen, look at my sincere eyes."
Staring at him without blinking, Ye Lu His mouth is not idle.
Shen Tuyi was also somewhat speechless.
She always had many words to choke him.
"Naughty."
He raised his hand to cover her face and pushed, pushing the person in his arms out.
After taking a few steps back, Ye Lu was overjoyed, "I asked you to say it but you didn't say it, so don't blame me for not being serious.
Oh, this stove is really good, but it's just that we can't use it in the south, otherwise I have to move one back."
The stove turned around a few times, and Ye Lu liked it very much.
Shen Tuyi walked to the chair by the window and sat down.
He glanced at the stove and said, "Although it is for heating, it has other uses."
"Don't tell me, I know what it's for.
If you're hungry, put a few eggs on it and bake them before you eat them."
Ye Lu thinks it's good, one stove can be used for many purposes.
Shaking his head slightly, Shen Tuyi was helpless as he could think of eating anything.
"Now that we have arrived in Yecheng, what are you going to do next?"
Shen Tuyi looked at her, wondering what her plan was.
Ye Lu tilted his head and thought for a while, "The weather is not good today.
It's probably going to snow.
Just wait until it snows.
I'll take action when it snows."
Shen Tuyi stood up and opened the window.
The cold wind blew in, but the weather outside was indeed gloomy and it looked like it was going to snow.
Walking behind Shen Tuyi, Ye Lu stood there and let the people in front of him protect him from the wind, while sticking his head out and looking out, "I haven't seen snow for a long time."
"I've seen him before."
Shen Tuyi lowered his eyes and glanced at the person beside him, and said calmly.
Looking up at him, Ye Lu arched his eyebrows and said, "I saw it in my dream."
"Daydream."

Shen Tuyi pursed his thin lips and raised his hand to close the window to block out the cold wind.
The food in Yecheng is pretty good.
Because it’s cold, there are more meat dishes.
But the leaf deer is now meat Yelu doesn't eat much meat now.
He simply eats some and then goes to breathe.
She now has time to enter samadhi sooner or later.
Shen Tuyi thought she was diligent, but in fact she really didn't want to see Ying Yan in her dream.
It was very effective to enter samadhi in this way.
During this period of time, Ying Yan never fell into a dream again.
Especially when Shen Tuyi is still here, if he really finds out, he will definitely be very angry.
In fact, she was also very innocent.
She didn't want to do such a thing, and it wasn't like she was stealing from someone behind his back.
She also found it annoying to be sneaky.
The clouds accumulated all night, and early the next morning, white snow finally fell from the sky.
Getting up from the bed, Ye Lu rushed to the window, opened the window, and saw the clear snow, which was extremely beautiful.
Eyes widened, Ye Lu couldn't help but sigh, it's so beautiful.
I don’t know how beautiful it would be if it snowed as heavy as goose feathers.
The timing is perfect.
When I came here today, it snowed.
It was really good.
After thinking about it, she quickly closed the window, turned around to wash up, then put on a cloak to cover her head and left the room.
Shen Tuyi got up when he heard the noise.
Before he could put on his clothes, the person in the next room went out.
He walked to the window and opened it.
Downstairs, the snow swirled down, and several guards at the door of the inn quickly left.
Ye Lu stood at the door, her pure white cloak completely wrapping her up.
At first glance, she looked like a snowman.
But after a while, Shen Tuyi walked down.
At the door, Ye Lu was still standing there, looking up at Xue, as if she was fascinated.
"What did they do?"
Stopping next to her, Shen Tuyi raised his hand and brushed off the snowflakes on her hood.
"I'm going shopping.
You'll be able to see the wonders soon."
Ye Lu's little face is white and sweet, wrapped in a hood, and it looks a bit mysterious and weird inexplicably.
Shen Tuyi narrowed his eyes, waiting to see the spectacle she mentioned.
It was almost noon, and the snow was getting heavier and heavier.
Ye Lu was lying at the window wrapped in a cloak, watching the snow.
Shen Tuyi sat opposite her, looking at her without blinking from beginning to end, silent and peaceful.
Suddenly, there was a noise outside, and the person lying there watching the snow finally moved.
She stood up, then leaned forward and looked into the distance, then smiled.
"City Lord Shentu, come quickly, a wonder has appeared."
He waved back, asking Shentu Yi to come over and take a look.
Standing up, Shen Tuyi walked over, put one hand around her waist, and then looked along her line of sight.
In the direction of Yecheng City Lord's Mansion, black clouds filled the sky and white snow rustled, but the black clouds there were not even white snow.
It's unstoppable, so weird.

"Dark clouds are overwhelming, and a disaster is approaching.
He can't even think about not panicking."
Ye Lu curved his red lips, with a faint smile in his clear eyes, very satisfied.
Shen Tuyi frowned slightly, "What's going on?"
How did he do it?
"I used to know a lot of swindlers.
These little tricks can be learned as soon as you learn them.
This morning, your soldiers went to buy some things for me and placed them around Ye Zhen's mansion.
The snow is heavy, and the black clouds have condensed.
When the sun shines, they will disperse."
Ye Lu leaned in his arms and said softly.
"I see."
Shen Tuyi suddenly realized that this was what happened.
If he hadn't learned it from Ye Lu's mouth, even if Shen Tuyi had seen it, he would have felt uneasy.
Everyone in the city could see it, and they all stopped and talked about it.
Even if you don't understand this, the dark clouds are gathering, which is not a good thing at all.
"Just wait, it won't take long, then Ye Zhen will have to look for someone to solve it.
Just in time, you can send people with money to spread rumors, saying that the masters from the southern country have passed by here and are resting in this inn."
Ye Lu was here.
He turned around in his arms, wrapped one hand around the hair scattered on his chest, and said.
"Yes."
In this way, she could enter the city lord's mansion.
Money is easy to do, and the news spreads quickly.
Before evening, half of the city knew that there was an expert from the southern country who happened to pass by Yecheng and rested in an inn.
However, Ye Zhen never sent anyone here.
Instead, news kept coming that the few fortune tellers in the city had been invited.
This was a good thing, and Ye Lu was very happy.
It wouldn't take long before someone would come to invite her.
The heat was lingering, and a small wooden bucket contained half a bucket of hot water.
Ye Lu leaned on the chair, lifted her skirt, and exposed her two calves, which were soaked in the bucket.
She was soaking her feet.
The calves are slender and the skin is white.
Although only a part of it is exposed, the whiteness is very dazzling.
Shen Tuyi was sitting opposite her.
Seeing her enjoying herself, he couldn't help but curl his thin lips and asked, "Does the broken leg still hurt?"
Although it had been nearly a year, after all, the bones were injured at that time.
When it heals again, no matter how well it is maintained, it will not be as good as before.
"It's okay, but I can't use too much force.
I don't dare to run or jump like before."
As she said that, she lifted up the broken leg.
The sound of water splashed, and water droplets slid down her feet.
The heat is steaming, and Yelu's feet are not big, fair and beautiful.
"Look, at least it didn't hurt my foot.
I can still move freely."
He turned his foot and it turned out to be very flexible.

Shen Tuyi stood up, sat down next to her, and then raised his hand to place her legs on his knees.
The water on his legs instantly soaked the hem of his robe, but Shen Tuyi didn't seem to notice.
He held her calf with his slightly rough hands and touched her bones slightly.
There was indeed something strange about the place where Zeng had broken it.
As he squeezed it gently, Ye Lu smiled and said, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore."
Holding her calf, maybe because his hand was too big, he easily held her entire calf and kneaded it gently, with a gentle movement.
Ye Lu looked at him with curved eyebrows.
The next moment, she moved her feet slowly and lightly touched the inside of his other thigh with her toes.
His eyes changed slightly, and Shen Tuyi looked at her, "Don't be naughty."
"This is not naughty, this is naughty."
As she said that, she took her other leg out of the barrel, dripping with water, and put her foot on his chest. his chest.
The water on her feet soaked his chest.
She moved her feet slowly, as if she were scratching an itch, and then tried to get in along the slit in his robe.
Raising his hand and holding down her troublesome feet, Shen Tuyi looked at her without blinking, his eyes a bit dangerous, "Last warning, if you are naughty again, tonight..."
He pursed his lips and smiled, "What are you doing tonight?"
Grabbing her ankles, Shen Tuyi pulled her directly onto his body.
His legs were under his butt.
Ye Lu looked at him, "Lord Shentu, don't you intend to be a gentleman to the end?
You also said that no matter what you do, you must do it after getting married.
Isn't that right?"
His endurance is not ordinary.
Strong.
"So, you are using this to keep being naughty and provoking me.
You are not a person who keeps his word.
If you don't believe it, just try it."
His warm hand slid down her thigh to her buttocks.
He really didn't mean what he said.
People of faith.
Ye Lu slowly straightened his back, "I haven't finished soaking my feet yet, let me down."
"I'm scared."
Shen Tuyi lowered his voice and looked at her with a hint of smile in his deep eyes.
Ye Lu did not deny that she was indeed nervous.
Holding her up, Shen Tuyi put her down, and Ye Lu put her feet in the barrel again.
Looking at her, Shen Tuyi raised his hand and touched her head, his movements somewhat gentle.
Ye Lu turned to look at him, his eyebrows curved, even if he couldn't help it, it was not at this time.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Shen Tuyi frowned slightly and said, "Say."
Outside the door, the voice of the black-armored soldier came, "Master, girl, it's not good, the black clouds over Yecheng Lord's Mansion have dispersed."
"What?"
Ye Lu immediately stared, thinking that there must be an expert in this city:
