The moon is bright and the stars are scarce.In the silent backyard of the inn, Zhongli paced round and round with his sword in hand, and from time to time he looked up at the roof, his thick eyebrows slightly frowned, and his heart was worried.After the dragon star map came back, it looked quite normal, she should eat when she should eat, rest when she should rest, and practice sword when she should practice swords, but she was silent, and after Zhong Chu was settled, she did not go to bed, but went out with a pot of cold wine, flew up to the roof with light skills, sat on the highest place, and drank alone.Zhongli wanted to go up several times, but he was afraid that he would be stupid and would not be able to say anything to comfort her.He probably understood what was going on in her heart, but she didn't necessarily want to talk about it, because no amount of talk would help.Therefore, what he can do is to stay down there, shelter her from the wind and rain, and support her unconditionally no matter what she wants to do.Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves broke through the peace, and a man and a horse came in an instant.The post house guard greeted him, lifted the lantern and shone on the visitor, and then bowed down to greet him, "The young marquis came here late at night, but there is something important?"
The villain will go and ask Lord Yicheng to ......"
"No need. ”Li Yanzhou stopped, jumped off the horse, threw the reins to the guards, and stepped into the gate of the post house with easy steps, "I'm looking for Master Long, I don't need to alarm others." ”From the front yard to the back yard, he was familiar with the road and planned to enter the house directly, but the tall figure standing in the center of the courtyard shattered his crooked thoughts."
Young Marquis?"
Zhongli was stunned, and asked with a pity: "Business trip?"
”"Ahem."
Li Yanzhou cleared his throat and replied righteously: "Is Master Long asleep?"
I had something to talk to her about. ”Zhongli raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?"
”"About Liang Xirong's deathbed request to release Ye Hai and others.""
It's late at night, and it's inconvenient, so let's talk about it tomorrow.""
No, there are many dreams at night, and I am afraid that there will be changes tomorrow!""
Young Marquis, are you sure it's just for business?"
Zhongli asked lightly, and his light tone seemed to have seen through the other party's tricks.Li Yanzhou frowned, and simply made it clear and said: "Half public and half private, is it done?"
Zhongli, I understand your desire to protect her, and I know your love for her, but sometimes, the person she needs is me, not you. ”Zhongli suddenly took a step closer, and said in a suppressed voice: "Young Marquis, how we are between us has nothing to do with you.But you need to know one thing, even if you and the star map have a fate in this life, they have no share, and if you break your mind as soon as possible, it will be a good thing for you, for the star map, and for your Anguo Hou Mansion!
”Li Yanzhou was stunned, "What do you mean?"
You ......
"Who's down there?"
”Suddenly there was a question from the dragon star map on the roof, Li Yanzhou suddenly raised his head, and his thin lips couldn't help grinning, "Zhongli, you don't have to stay here!"
”As he spoke, he tiptoed and flew towards his target.Zhongli was depressed, and a copper coin dart fell into his palm from his sleeve pocket, but he endured it, a sneak attack behind his back violated his style of doing things, and if the shameless Li Erye was disabled, the person who suffered from it would have to be the Dragon Star Diagram!
The so-called out of sight is clean, Zhongli gritted his teeth and turned back to the room.By the moonlight, Long Xingtu saw the rise and fall of stepping on the glazed tiles, and the man who approached her, Xiu Mei twisted, "The curfew hour is coming, the young marquis should go back early, so as to save the embarrassment of the patrol soldiers." ”Li Yanzhou sat down beside her, picked up her wine jug and poured it on her neck, but shivered, "How do you drink cold wine?"
Time is different, and the wine must be hot before drinking. ”The dragon star map turned his face away and didn't pay attention.Li Yanzhou put down the wine jug, untied the cloak tie around her neck, and wanted to put it on for the Dragon Star Chart, she twisted her shoulders and refused, but was held down by his gravity, "You have thin clothes, and you still drink cold wine, aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"
”Long Xingtu pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "Take care of yourself." ”"Don't worry, I promised you that you won't be sick again, and you will take care of your body, I came out in a silk cotton coat, and I didn't feel cold at all."
Li Yanzhou said as he tied her cloak, and then held her cold hands, full of distress, "The person who went has already gone, why do you punish yourself like this?"
”Long Xingtu withdrew his hand, clasped his arms, lowered his eyes, and said, "I'm fine."
Second master, go back quickly, curfew for a while......"
Li Yanzhou interrupted her, "I'll spend the night in the post house and return home tomorrow." ”"Don't you be willful, won't you?
If you don't go home, what will Lord Hou and Mrs. think?
What will others say?
If the Pope had known......
"I am not afraid!
”Li Yanzhou was a little annoyed, "Dragon Star Diagram, why do you always push me out?"
I am above board, and I am not afraid of rumors!
Even if the emperor knew?
There are a thousand glasses of wine for a confidant, as long as your identity remains the same, the emperor will not blame me!
”Dragon Star Diagram Stopper.It is true that the two men will not be criticized for drinking together, but she doesn't want to be disruptive and constantly suffer from it.Since she has reached an agreement with Zhou Su, she should be neat and tidy, instead of falling deeper and deeper."
Okay, you're angry, I'm looking for you to get down to business."
Li Yanzhou exhaled heavily, suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and said, "Two things."
First, the emperor intends to reward you with an official position and let you leave Du Mingcheng to be an official independently, but the specific official title is still under consideration, what do you think, make plans in advance; Second, since Fanbang's ambition to attack Xia has been exposed, the peace treaty signed by the two countries will be considered null and void, and Ye Hai has always been a strong enemy of the Xia Dynasty. ”Hearing this, Long Xingtu was a little anxious, "What about Mengli and Chun'er?"
Chun'er is just a little girl, she can't affect the war between the two countries, and she won't return to Fanbang!
”Li Yanzhou said: "The emperor has the heart to kill Mengli, after all, his father wants to assassinate the emperor, but in the end, whether to kill or not, or whether to let go, depends on the attitude of King Fanbang Khan, these are not up to you and me."
As for Chun'er, when the emperor is in a better mood in a few days, I asked my mother to come forward and bring Chun'er into the Hou Mansion, my mother is originally from Fanbang, and Chun'er should be a good destination to follow my mother. ”"If I can do this, it would be good, Miss Liang entrusted Chun'er to me, but I came and went in the wind and rain, and I couldn't live a peaceful life, so I might not be able to take care of Chun'er.When the turmoil subsides in the future, please ask Mrs. to find a good family for Chun'er, and I am worthy of Miss Liang's spirit in the sky. ”The dragon star map felt both happy and sad.Li Yanzhou grabbed her shoulder with a big palm, "So, you should worry less."
Ye Hai and Meng Li have only lost their freedom, and their lives will not be in danger for the time being.In addition, I heard that this afternoon Yan Jing and other officials in charge of the national economy and people's livelihood were all summoned, and the emperor made a big fuss in the Golden Palace, and many people were demoted and fined. ”
