Ye Cheng's affairs are almost settled.
Although Ye Zichuan is still a novice, after studying hard for nearly half a month, he is much more flexible than he was at the beginning.
Ye Zichuan is timid and honest, but he doesn't have Ye Zhen's ambition.
The management of Yecheng is good, but after all, it is adjacent to the border fortress, so I am afraid that he is too timid and will retreat when it escalates to a national conflict.
However, it seems that he has a noble person in his life.
There is a deputy general in Ye Cheng's army.
This deputy general cannot be reused by Ye Zhen and is almost about to be demoted.
However, Ye Zhen suddenly went crazy, and his position as deputy general was temporarily saved.
However, what he didn't expect was that he would actually be appreciated by Shen Tuyi.
In fact, Shen Tuyi only met him once, and then he was promoted to captain and became Ye Zichuan's right-hand man.
Ye Lu went to take a look.
This man was a loyal man.
If Ye Zichuan could reuse him properly, Ye Cheng would be protected like an iron bucket.
After everything was settled, Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi embarked on their journey back to the imperial capital.
Ye Zichuan walked all the way to the official road outside the city.
Watching the group of people and horses drifting away, he led the team back to Yecheng.
In the carriage, Ye Lu watched Ye Zichuan return.
She put her head back and closed the window, while saying: "Although you are timid, timidity also has its advantages."
"Being timid will lead to longevity."
Shen Tuyi's voice was light, and it sounded even colder.
Ye Lu nodded, "You are right, but this is not appropriate to say about City Master Shentu."
He is a lone star of the evil spirits, very long-lived, and can do whatever he wants and be bold.
"It's a good fit for you."
She was as timid as a mouse, so she always stayed by his side.
"I'm timid, I admit it.
I'm afraid of death.
It's not easy to survive.
Who knows what I will be reincarnated into in my next life."
There is no chance that if you do something wrong, you will become an animal in your next life.
"You can be a pig." suits her well.
"What about you?"
She raised her eyebrows.
If she is a pig, he must also be a pig.
The two of them will become a pig couple.
"Pig feeder."
Shen Tuyi stared at her without blinking, obviously what he meant.
Silently, Ye Lu rolled his eyelids and said, "Okay, you can feed me in the next life, and remember to make sure I'm full."
His thin lips pursed slightly, a faint smile appeared in his deep eyes, and then he raised his hand and pulled her into his arms.
Leaning in his arms, Ye Lu twisted her body and stopped moving.
Leaning against him, she felt comfortable no matter how bumpy the carriage and horses were.
It was a long distance from Yecheng back to the Imperial Capital, and as we walked towards the Imperial Capital, the temperature also rose a lot.
After entering the imperial capital, some trees on the mountains were still green, which was completely different from the heavy snowfall seen in Yecheng.
In a short period of time, Ye Lu felt as if he had traveled across the north and south of the earth.
Everyone in the imperial capital knew that Long Zhi was about to marry the Crown Princess.
The origin of the Crown Princess suddenly became news among the people, involving several cities in the Southern Kingdom.

This origin was unusual.
Moreover, the eldest lady from Northern Tianma City also came to the Imperial Capital and is currently living in the Prince's Mansion.
Ye Lu was a little unhappy when he heard the news after entering the imperial capital.
She knew that Long Zhi would marry the eldest lady from Tianma City, but now that Long Zhi was going to marry Mai Tang, and the eldest lady was also here, it always sounded like It's unpleasant.
When they returned to the Prince's Mansion, Long Zhi had already returned from the palace.
Knowing that they were returning to the city today, he rushed there early.
Ye Lu followed Shen Tuyi's hand and got out of the carriage.
He looked up and saw Long Zhi Maitang and several other staff in the mansion.
Turning his eyes, Ye Lu saw a woman.
Although she was dressed gorgeously, her stance revealed a bit of strength.
She is tall and looks quite toned.
Although her appearance is not first-class, she does have a unique charm.
This is probably the eldest lady of Tianma City.
Being able to lead soldiers and horses out of the city to fight the enemy requires a good figure.
"It's been a long journey, Ninth Brother, Xiaolu, thank you for your hard work."
Long Zhi was very satisfied with what they had gained from their trip, and he also liked the rumors alone.
"Your Highness, please don't be polite.
I'm very happy to know that the wedding date between Your Highness and my sister has been set.
If there is any happy event in the future, please announce it when I'm at home.
I want to know about it as soon as possible."
Looking at Long Zhi, Ye Lu looked at Mai Tang again.
She was smiling and calm.
"Okay, I will inform you first if there is any happy event in the future."
Long Zhi's tone was more like coaxing a child.
Ye Lu, his sister-in-law, is not just talking.
"Don't be poor with her, this mouth can talk."
Mai Tang looked at Ye Lu, she was happy to see her back.
The group of people returned home.
Ye Lu and Mai Tang walked on one side.
She held Ye Lu's hand and then introduced her to Miss Tianma City who was traveling with them.
"Xiaolu, this is Lord Ma of Tianma City.
The old Lord is ill, so the burden of managing the city falls on Lord Ma's shoulders.
Lord Ma, this is my sister, Ye Lu."
Mai Tang said with a smile on his face.
Smile and introduce the two of them to each other.
Ma Shu looked at Ye Lu, while cupping her hands, her movements suddenly disappeared, "Just call me Ma Shu, calling me City Lord is too awkward."
Also looking at her, Ye Lu's eyes slid from her face to her feet, and then back to her face.
Then he handed her over and said, "It's really better to be famous than to meet her.
I am ashamed of City Master Ma's chicness."
This woman does look extraordinary.
"Don't be fooled by being chic.
It's true that you are bold."
Ma Shu shook her long hair tied behind her head.
She looked really informal.
Long Zhi has a special fondness for these women with distinctive characteristics and free and easy personalities, but in this world, such women are still a minority.

Fortunately, Long Zhi is not a cold-blooded person, otherwise it would be really annoying.
"At that time, I heard about City Lord Ma leading his troops to meet the enemy.
It was really admirable."
It was obvious that she was indeed brave.
"If His Highness hadn't sent someone to deliver the news in time, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet the enemy.
Maybe I would have already done it.
You might have become a prisoner if you faced the enemy.
Also, don’t call me City Lord, call me Ma Shu, My Fair Lady’s Shu.
"In the last sentence, Ma Shu obviously laughed at herself.
Her father deliberately chose such a name to make her look like a lady, but it backfired.
Ye Lu looked at her and couldn't help but smile, "Sure, Ma Shu, you can be like my sister, just call me Xiaolu."
She raised her chin in response, and her way of responding was indeed unique.
Most people nodded in response, while she raised her head in response.
The gap between the north and the south was indeed huge.
Long Zhi and Shen Tuyi went directly to the study, while Mai Tang and Ye Luma Shu returned to their residence next to the tower.
After leaving for more than a month, this place is still very clean, and the incense in the hall has not stopped during this period.
Ma Shu had heard of Ye Lu since she came to the imperial capital, and knew that there was such a person beside Long Zhi, but today was the first time she met him, and it was also the first time she came to where she lived.
The incense niche first caught her attention.
She went over to take a look, and then turned back, "Xiaolu, I heard that you are not only an alchemist, but also a master.
I wonder if I can see it."
Taking off his cloak, Ye Lu sat on a chair by the window, "No matter how you want to see something, you have to ask for it."
"Why don't you please see when I can give birth to Lin'er, and then give him the city lord's seal."
Ma Shu sat down next to her, and her request was strange.
Ye Lu didn't expect her to be so straightforward.
He glanced at Mai Tang and saw that her face was calm and not unhappy at all.
"Okay."
After saying that, Ye Lu grabbed Ma Shu's hand, and for a moment, both of them felt something.
As if being electrocuted, Ma Shu reflexively wanted to let go, but Ye Lu grabbed her hard and stared at her without blinking.
There was silence and only the faint smell of incense floating in the air.
Ye Lu stared at her, his clear eyes a bit strange.
No matter how bold Ma Shu was, she still felt uncomfortable looking at Ye Lu's eyes.
Glancing at Mai Tang, she swallowed slightly and said, "Little deer" The next moment, Ye Lu let go of her hand, and the smile returned to his face, "It's too early for you to be anxious about this.
Not to mention that Tianma City needs you now, even giving birth to Lin'er and waiting for him to grow up will take time.
Two Ten years, maybe twenty years later, you will be happy."
Hearing this, Ma Shu sighed, "Who knows who is tired?
As for me, I don't actually have any big ambitions.
As long as I ride horses and sing songs every day, and have wine and meat, I will be satisfied."
Ye Lu looked at her and knew that what she said was true.
However, with her temperament, she probably wouldn't be happy if she really stayed in the palace.
Therefore, even if she marries Long Zhi, she still has to return to Tianma City.
This is for the best, but she doesn't know it now.
After chatting for a while, Ma Shu got up and left, because she said that noon was coming and she wanted to take a nap.
Ye Lu does whatever comes to his mind, which makes Ye Lu feel a little envious.
The women Long Zhi likes are so charming.
If Ye Lu were born as a man, he would probably steal women from him.

Watching Ma Shu leave, Ye Lu sighed deeply, "If His Highness's harem is filled with women like this in the future, sister, you will be relieved."
"I can deal with so many women."
Mai Tang's tone sounded more confident, which made Ye Lu laugh.
"Sister, do you have no illusions about love now?"
Some are just down-to-earth, caring for each other, and treating each other with respect.
"There is no fantasy in the first place."
Mai Tang looked away, her fantasy had ended for a long time.
Ye Lu looked at her and shook his head indifferently.
Maitang's first love should be Cai Kang.
However, the two of them are not destined to be different.
However, sometimes a first love will wear away all the illusions about love, so after experiencing first love, what you pursue is reality, nothing fancy.
"The wedding date has been set, how are you all preparing?"
The wedding date is after the new year, so there is still a lot of time to prepare.
"That's almost it.
It's just that the palace is still a problem right now.
King Duan's power still remains, and it will take time to deal with them."
Mai Tang stood up, his face slightly cold.
"Imperial Palace, the woman from Chili should be left to me, she will be of use."
Ye Lu was naturally still thinking about this, and Old Man Xu didn't know what was going on.
"She is currently under guard, and because you said she was refining the elixir, it is a bit difficult to guard her."
The guards have to be changed every day, just in case someone falls into her trap.
"As long as you don't be fooled by her beauty, don't take her pills, and don't believe her words, there will be no problem."
Ye Lu leaned on the back of the chair, leisurely.
"It's hard to avoid what you mentioned."
Mai Tang shook his head.
Not everyone was determined.
Even the old emperor was fooled, let alone others.
"It seems that I think humans are too smart."
Ye Lu blinked.
Not everyone has the same sense of external world.
"Why, you are no longer a human being."
Mai Tang smiled, her lively look was indeed the most like her.
"Of course, I am an expert now."
She shook her hair and returned to the imperial capital.
She had to pretend to be an expert.
"Speaking of this, I would like to ask you, why is Ye Zhen so crazy?"
He suddenly became crazy.
It was really bizarre.
"Well, don't worry about how crazy I am.
Anyway, I didn't do anything harmful to the world, so don't worry."
Ye Lu didn't say anything about Yi Zhu, so she should worry about it herself.
"Don't do things that harm your moral character.
My grandfather said when he was still alive that if you do bad things, you will be punished.
If you don't get retribution on yourself, you will get retribution on your descendants."
Mai Tang felt that he might not have too much retribution.

There are many choices, but Yelu has them.
"I understand, don't worry about it, just be your bride and princess."
Ye Lu blinked, as sweet as honey.
"City Lord Zhu has learned that the wedding date has been decided, and has sent Master Zhu to deliver a congratulatory gift.
This gift must be very large, and it will give you a lot of face.
But I think Mr.
Zhu has something to ask for."
There are some things that Maitang knows very well.
"I know what you want, Mr.
Zhu Yes, Mr.
Zhu is thinking about his daughter.
"His daughter married the old emperor and is not favored now.
It is no different from being in the cold palace.
Now, the old emperor is dying, Long Zhi is about to succeed, and the old emperor's concubines will be sent to Zimu Mountain.
Although it is said that he is enjoying his old age, it should be no different from living in the cold palace, both of which are suffering.
Mr.
Zhu loves his daughter and would never want her to suffer.
Therefore, the old man considered Mai Tang as his granddaughter after careful consideration.
Sure enough, the ties between people are inseparable from interests.
"His Highness will definitely agree to Mr.
Zhu's request.
This can be considered a big favor."
Mai Tang felt that it was understandable.
It was normal for him to care for his daughter.
"So, Zhu Beiyu will come to the Imperial Capital soon.
However, this Ma Shu came to the Imperial Capital to send gifts, right?"
Ye Lu felt that it might not be that simple.
"After all, if we want to get along with each other in the future, it's always better to meet first."
She has to let her know the reason for being a small child.
Ye Lu blinked and didn't say anything else.
Fortunately, Ma Shu was a big-hearted woman, otherwise it would be really difficult to get along with her in the future.
At noon, Long Zhi served Shen Tuyi and Ye Lu.
This meal was a bit strange.
The staff of the Prince's Mansion are very different from before.
They seem to be a little cautious.
They were not like this before.
There were even a few who were prejudiced against Ye Lu, and these Ye Lu all knew it.
But at this dinner table, they changed from their normal state and did not even make eye contact with Ye Lu.
They had treated Shen Tuyi like this before.
After all, he had a strong evil aura, which was understandable.
And now, they have the same attitude towards Ye Lu.
The two of them are really similar now.
As the old saying goes, this is probably what a husband and wife look like.
Ye Lu guessed what was going on.
It was the rumor.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Ye Zhen disobeyed and she drove her crazy.
Rumors were terrifying.
She figured it out.
With a small rumor, she not only became an expert, but also became an evil star that was more evil than Shen Tuyi, the lone star in the sky.
Curling her lips, Ye Lu didn't care much.
It was a good thing to be afraid of her.
It was much better than despising her.
This lunch was strange.
After the meal, Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi returned to the small building.
Passing by the tower, Ye Lu went around to burn incense.
He hadn't been here for a long time, but the incense was still burning.
Long Zhi is very pious, and even if he doesn't have time himself, he will send someone to offer incense.
Back at the small building, Ye Lu was in front, stepping up the stairs step by step.
Shen Tuyi walked behind, tall and steady, like the strongest fortress in the world.
Suddenly, Ye Lu in front suddenly fell towards the back.
Shen Tuyi raised his hand to catch it with a stern look on his face, "What's wrong with you?"
Leaning against him, Ye Lu blinked, "I'm too lazy to leave."
Taking a deep breath, Shen Tuyi was speechless, picked her up and walked up the stairs.
Returning to the room, he put her on the bed.
Ye Lu stretched his legs out of the bed and said, "Take off your shoes."
Shen Tuyi glanced at her, then turned around and sat down, "You are so lazy now.
Do you have to find someone else to eat and drink in the future?"
"Of course there is no need for food and water.
I will take care of it myself.
However, it is best if someone feeds me.
City Lord Shentu, I think you are qualified for this position."
Looking at Shentu Yi, Ye Lu blinked, a bit naughty.
"That's a beautiful idea."
Shen Tuyi scolded her coldly, turned her face expressionlessly, and then took off her shoes.
With a smile and his feet freed, Ye Lu stretched, "It feels so comfortable.
I'll take a nap.
You can take a nap if you have nothing to do."
After saying that, he dragged Shen Tuyi up beside the bed. bed.
Zhu Beiyu arrived in the imperial capital with Mr.
Zhu's gift, and he moved directly into the post house, the same one he lived in before.
As a friend, Ye Lu wanted to see him.
Together with Shen Tuyi, we went to the post house in the evening.
The circular huts have a pool in the middle, and an arch bridge is built over the pool to connect the huts, which is very exquisite.
I've been here before, and now that I'm here again, my emotions are completely different.
"Lord of Shentu City, Miss Ye."
Zhu Beiyu stood at the end of the arch bridge, wearing a smart outfit and looking magnanimous.
"Master Zhu, I haven't seen you for a long time.
You are still as handsome as ever."
Ye Lu took off the hood on his head and smiled as sweetly as honey.
"Miss Ye is quite plump."
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Zhu Beiyu said with a smile, his words were more like a joke.
"Is it so obvious?"
Ye Lu looked at himself, it was not that serious.
"It's a joke, please come in."
Zhu Beiyu turned sideways and asked Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi to enter the house.
Entering the room, the temperature was a bit low because there was a pool outside the house.
There is an exquisite hot stove in this room, which looks like a big cauldron, but it emits heat.
The floor was clean with soft cushions placed on it.
The three of them sat down and Zhu Beiyu poured tea.
"I wonder what kind of gift Mr.
Zhu has sent?"
Ye Lu felt that Mr.
Zhu would not be stingy.
After all, this was related to his daughter's freedom.
"Do you want to see it?"
Zhu Beiyu looked at her and asked.
Obviously, if Ye Lu wanted to see it, he would open all the wrapped gifts and show them to her.
"Forget it, I can see it when you deliver it to His Highness."
Shaking his head, Ye Lu picked up the teacup and drank tea.
Shen Tuyi glanced at Ye Lu with a stern look on his face, "Master Zhu, I wonder if there is any movement in Dajin these days?"
Hearing this, Zhu Beiyu nodded slowly, "Since the great Sima Lei Zhong of the Jin Dynasty fell ill, it seems that Ying Yan has taken over the military power.
It's really ruthless.
Grandpa and biological father, not one of them is missing."
Hearing Ying Yan, Ye Lu lowered his eyes and drank tea quietly.
"If he doesn't take action, someone will do it."
Shen Tuyi saw clearly that it was a matter of your death or mine, so some things were not important.
"That's right.
This grandpa treats him as a puppet, and his biological father is worried that he will seize power.
If he doesn't resist, he will die."
Zhu Beiyu is almost insignificant.
Shaking your head when encountering a serious situation, a struggle for power, no family affection at all.
"Make sure he didn't try to reach out again."
Shen Tuyi still suspected that Yi Zhu had an inseparable relationship with him.
"He must be at his wits end."
Zhu Beiyu did not see him reaching out again.
"That's good."
Shen Tuyi put down the tea cup, and then looked at Ye Lu again.
According to his understanding of Ye Lu, when talking about Ying Yan, she would definitely interrupt and curse a few words.
At this time, she was so quiet as if she didn't hear them talking, which was really strange.
Feeling the look in Shen Tuyi's eyes, Ye Lu coughed lightly, then put down the tea cup, his eyebrows arched, "Master Zhu, I wonder when City Lord Yang will come."
He claimed to be friends with Mai Tang at that time, but now Mai Tang Tang and Long Zhi were getting married, so naturally he couldn't let this opportunity pass by.
Whether it is for yourself or for Yang Cheng, it will benefit a lot.
"I don't know, I haven't corresponded with him recently."
Shaking his head, Zhu Beiyu really didn't know.
Ye Lu nodded, and she changed the topic like this.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Shen Tuyi picked up the teapot and filled Ye Lu's cup.
Ye Lu looked up at him and couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart.
This guy was suspicious.
The only reason is that he knows her too well, and it's not easy to hide anything from him.
Shen Tuyi and Zhu Beiyu talked about some things about the Southern Kingdom.
Ye Lu sat aside and remained silent, thinking about how to deal with Shen Tuyi's questioning.
It was time for dinner.
The food in this inn was exquisite.
The three of them ate together before Shen Tuyi and Ye Lu took their leave.
The night was dark, and when they walked out of the inn, they walked back to the Prince's Mansion.
After all, they were walking when they came here.
Walking beside Shen Tuyi, Ye Lu counted silently, guessing when he would speak.
The Imperial Capital is a city that never sleeps, and there are still many people on the streets at this hour.
Patrolling Imperial Guards passed by from time to time, but to the people of the imperial capital, they were very common and were not people to be feared.
In some restaurants, drinks and drinks were exchanged, and there were loud orders to drink.
The night was as lively as the day.
Shen Tuyi didn't speak, but Ye Lu felt uncomfortable.
If there was something wrong, he wasn't afraid to say it, he was just afraid to hold it in.
This is no different from cold violence, it tortures people.
Finally, she couldn't hold back her anger anymore, "Shen Tuyi, don't you have anything to ask me?"
Without looking at her, Shen Tuyi said calmly, "What mistakes have you made that you are waiting for me to forgive?"
His words were like sharp arrows piercing people's hearts.
"I didn't make a mistake, I have a clear conscience."
After muttering, Ye Lu frowned, feeling a little distressed.
In fact, if we talk about it, she is still a victim.
"Then why can't you calm down and are so anxious to explain to me?"
Shen Tuyi finally glanced at her, with a smile in his eyes.
"I'm not in a hurry to explain to you.
I'm magnanimous.
Look at me.
The word magnanimous is written on my forehead."
Very magnanimous.
"I think that's not three words, but four words.
A guilty conscience."
Shen Tuyi looked straight ahead and said calmly.
Ye Lu bit his lip, "Okay, if you really want to know, then it's okay for me to tell you.
But it's a long story, I'll tell you after I get home."
It's nothing big, it's just that He will definitely be angry after hearing this.
"Okay."
Shen Tuyi waited for her explanation.
As we turned around the busy long street, there were fewer pedestrians in front of us, but there were still people walking in a hurry.
Suddenly, a tall and thick man walked over from the opposite side carrying half a pig, his footsteps hurried.
He was also wearing a leather apron, which was greasy.
He was a butcher.
He trotted this way and unconsciously looked up at Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi who were walking towards him.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
When he saw Ye Lu's face under his hood, he suddenly stopped.
Ye Lu and Shen Tuyi seemed to sense the strangeness of the man.
They looked over, but at this moment, the man suddenly threw down half the pig on his shoulders and ran towards Ye Lu.
Shen Tuyi raised his hand to hold Ye Lu behind him, then raised his leg to kick away the person who was rushing towards him.
Shen Tuyi knew how strong his kick was.
Most people would be unable to get up for a while.
However, this man acted like crazy, immediately jumped up and ran towards this side again.
His face was ferocious, as if he was possessed by something, completely ignoring the pain on his body.
Ye Lu was hiding behind Shen Tuyi, but he also saw his appearance.
The ferocious face and irrational eyes were exactly the same as Ye Zhen.
"Shen Tuyi, he is under control."
Yi Zhu, it's Yi Zhu, the old bastard again.
Shen Tuyi frowned, and this time he punched hard, knocking the crazy man unconscious.
It hit the ground with a thud, and then he never jumped up again.
"It was controlled by Yi Zhi."
There was no one else except him.
"It must be him.
This man was normal when he didn't see me, but when he saw my face, he went crazy instantly.
He left Yecheng and went to the Imperial Capital.
At present, I don't know how many people in the Imperial Capital are controlled by him.
"It can be said that it is extremely scary to think about it carefully.
Looking at the person hiding behind him, Shen Tuyi clenched his fists and said, "Then search the whole city and arrest anyone who seems to be wrong."
"His Royal Highness is about to get married.
If this happens, it will cause uproar in the city.
Let's go first, and I will go back and think of a solution."
After saying this, Ye Lu took Shen Tuyi's hand and left quickly.
