"Several wives don't like to come out to participate in banquets very much, they are the ones we have quietly observed before, and then Xiao Lotus and I found that we haven't seen them at several big banquets," Wu Yue lowered his voice and Yan Qidao, " There are also two or three adults who have given their wives to retire, but the reasons are different, and they are low-key, and they have not caused any big impact, and we didn't notice it very much, but we still heard my fifth brother talk about it, so I paid special attention to it, and there are a few more terrible things, but I heard about it from Lord Qiao, Xiao Lotus, you said. ”

Lu Rong's face turned red again, but when she saw Yan Qi looking at her, she had to glare at Wu Yue and said, "These things have also been deliberately suppressed so that they have not caused much impact in this circle-I heard that two wives have hacked their personal subordinates to death with knives due to sudden mania, and there is even one who directly stabbed the concubine with scissors- This is more serious, and a few others say that they have madness, and most of the time they look very sober, and they are good to people, but sometimes they have mad attacks, shouting and crying, and always saying that someone wants to kill her, and when they see someone, they will beat her, and the six relatives do not recognize, and no one dares to come closer, and when this madness passes, people will return to normal, and behave politely, no different from ordinary people, and how many Langzhong they have found to see it is useless, and even the imperial doctor is helpless......"

"At first, we all thought that these were just incidental things, but then I heard my fifth brother say that there must be some kind of connection between these things, otherwise why would there suddenly be so many similar incidents in the past two years? Why did they all happen to the wife of the official family?" Wu Yue said with a mysterious face, "It's just that there is no empirical evidence to explain it at present, and the fifth brother won't let us talk about it." Belch...... What's wrong?"

Wu Yue was startled by Yan Qi's dark pupils. She didn't know if she was too sensitive or too slow, and it wasn't until now that she realized that in the process of speaking, there seemed to be such an invisible and powerful aura around her. She couldn't tell what kind of emotions were contained in this aura, but it made her inexplicably a little breathless.

"Ah, sorry, I lost my temper. "Yan Qidao.

Wu Yue: "...... "Where are you in a state?"

As she was talking, the nurse came over with Xiao Eleven in her arms, climbed up to the tree house in fear, saluted to Wuliuqi tremblingly, and said to Yan Qi: "Brother Taki is clamoring to find Miss, but I can't do it, so I have to hug him." ”

"Come on, come on!" Wu Yue was very happy, and stepped forward to hug Xiao Eleven, "Call sister." ”

"Call my sister. "Little Eleven learns to speak.

"Call Sister to give you chestnuts. Wu Yue said.

"Sister Sheng. "Little Eleven.

"......" Wu Yue.

Let Xiao Eleven run around the house, and the servants sat on the kang to peel chestnuts for him, Wu Yue asked Yan Qi: "When will you go through the procedures for resuming school?"

"After the New Year, does Xiao Lotus continue to go to school, when will the marriage happen?" Yan Qi looked at Lu Lotus.

Lu Rong blushed and pretended not to hear, so he just took the chestnuts and fed them to Xiao Eleven.

Wu Yue smiled evilly and told Yan Qi: "It is said that Master Qiao is afraid that Xiao Lotus is young and will suffer if she marries early, so she offered to wait a few more years, and Aunt Lu also felt good, thinking that she would wait until Xiao Lotus was sixteen years old. ”

Yan Qi glanced at her, did this guy know what "suffering" meant here.

"But now that the little lotus root is much quieter at home, it is good for the mother and son to be companions for a few more years. Wu Yue winked at Yan Qi meaningfully.

Lu Jingwei was decentralized, Lu Lian also got married, and there was only Aunt Xu left, without Lu Jingwei's cover, she had already been cleaned up by the Jiang Mama from the palace, plus she gave birth to a daughter in this womb, and I don't know if she can regenerate later, Lu Jingwei doesn't know when she will be transferred back to Beijing, and when he comes back, she may already be an old man, if the housemother is kind, she can still live until that time, if she is ruthless, she will be "sick" to death, Lu Jingwei Yuanshui can't save the near fire, and she has nowhere to redress her grievances when she dies.

So now Lu Lotus's house can be described as a clear and clear place, Aunt Xu nests in her small courtyard and doesn't dare to put a fart all day long, Mama Jiang is a good housekeeper, while taking Lu Lotus to learn the middle feed, while teaching the mother and daughter, those who were not useful in the past, were bought by Aunt Xu, The old servants in Lu Jingwei's family, in the past two years, have been sent out by Mama Jiang with various means and various excuses, and the newly opened and promoted are all the cronies of the Lu family's mother and daughter and the new servants with clean backgrounds.

"No wonder the little lotus root hasn't grown more and more moist in the past two years," Yan Qidao, "This heart is wide, it's ......."

Wu Yue: "The body is fat." ”

Yan Qi: "Every happy event......"

Wu Yue: "Refreshed. ”

Lu Rong was angry, funny and blushing, and got up to scold these two people who were talking about cross talk, and the people who said cross talk were running away with their heads in their hands, and Xiao Eleven also fled, giggling and shouting while fleeing: "Cool-cool-"

Laughing and chatting for a while, the three of them came out of the Flying Tori House with Xiao Shiyi, after all, Yan Qi is the master, he can't always engage in a small gang, and he has to help the adults in the family entertain other guests, so he went forward unhurriedly, walked around, saw which guests had what they needed, and greeted their own people to add tea and dim sum, and then saw him and Wu Ting and a group of members of the comprehensive martial arts team playing there in the open space outside the Jinyin Essence House of the Fourth Young Master Yan, and Xiao Chen was also there.

"Yo! Yan Xiaoqi!" A group of people saw Yan Qi greeting in a thick voice, some of these guys are going through a period of voice change, some have finished changing their voices, and some of them are very strong like adults because of overnutrition, and all of them have changed a lot, and when they saw Yan Qi coming, they all looked her up and down, and then agreed that "they are more grandfathers than before."

"I must have seen a fake teammate. Yan Qi turned his head and said to Wu Yue and Lu Rong.

"Seventh sister and seventh sister, you can also try it!" Fourth Young Master Yan greeted her.

"I really don't. "Yan Qidao.

"I'm coming!" Wu Yue rushed over, "Hey, Xiao Ba, you're also here!, why haven't you changed at all?"

Xiao Chen: "......" I'm getting bigger.

"Do you know how to play with this?" Wu Yue asked him.

"No, it won't. Xiao Chen said.

"Then I'll teach you. Wu Yue took the bamboo from the hands of the fourth young master Yan, shook and threw it, and there were no mistakes at all after a few beautiful movements, which aroused the applause of all the members of the comprehensive martial arts team, and they were not to be outdone, shouting to compare with Wu Yue, and a group of people started to play.

"Fifth brother, take a step to speak. While everyone was having fun, Yan Qi went to Wu Ting's side.

Hearing this, Wu Ting glanced at everyone, and seeing that no one was paying attention to this, he raised his chin at Yan Qiyi, and the two of them walked a little farther away as if at random.

"I know you have to find me," Wu Ting didn't have the usual smile on his face, his eyes fell on the tip of the withered grass next to him, and his voice was extremely low, "After you left, I have been paying attention to Puji Nunnery, and I have asked my mother to help me go in to find out the details, but unfortunately the people inside are full of vigilance and have set up various 'membership' standards, and they don't just need to spend more money to enter, but also pass the test of time, and it is impossible to find out the secrets in three or five days." ”

"What will you enter?" Yan Qi asked.

"My mother has a good relationship with several official wives who often go in and out of Puji Nunnery, but these people have signed a confidentiality agreement after joining the association. Wu Ting's expression was a little serious, and he withdrew his gaze and fell on Yan Qi's face, "How much do you know about this Puji Nunnery?"

"I'm not sure who is behind the scenes, but if it's really who I think is, then the truth about Pujian will be terrifying. "Yan Qidao.

"Terrible?" Wu Ting narrowed his eyes, "If even you feel terrible, then the weight of this truth should not be underestimated." ”

"I have to talk to my uncle about this matter," Yan Qi said, "Fifth brother, when will you be free to come to the island again in the next few days?" I will ask the uncle to wait for you at home, and I will probably need you to tell me in detail about Puji Nunnery and its extensions in the past two years. ”

"Yes, I'm free during this time, and I can go to the island at any time," Wu Ting looked at her, "Who do you think it could be, or what is going on?"

"As far as I know, there are poppy husks in the rice at Puji'an. "Yan Qidao.

"Poppy husk?!" Wu Ting obviously knew about this thing, and couldn't help but be surprised, "This kind of thing is said to only exist in the Western Regions, and it is not cultivated in the Central Plains. ”

"The Central Plains is a vast land, and as long as seeds are introduced, they can be planted in large areas. "Yan Qidao.

"Poppy ......," Wu Ting muttered, "Will eating too much make people hallucinate?"

"It depends on how it's processed. Yan Qi sank his eyes, "So I want to know who is behind the scenes." ”

"Looks like you've got a candidate in mind. Wu Ting stared at her keenly.

"Let's not talk about it until we're sure it's that person. "Yan Qidao.

Wu Ting didn't ask any more questions, the two of them were relatively silent for a while, and after a while, Wu Ting smiled and looked at Yan Qi: "I heard that I almost made a ghost mandarin duck with Yuan Chang on the bloody battlefield?"

“…… Comrade Wu Ling is a big mouth. Yan Qi was speechless, "What did he say in his letter?"

"I've praised you as a flower. Wu Ting said, "It is said that the two of you killed nearly a hundred barbarians?"

"That's an exaggeration, there were several cavalry at that time. "Yan Qidao.

"That's not bad," Wu Ting looked at her and smiled, "I really envy you guys who have been on the battlefield." ”

"Don't worry, the good times have just begun. "Yan Qidao.

"That's right," Wu Ting laughed, raised his hand and patted Yan Qi on the shoulder, "If you can't get the Zongwu Leader this year, you will know where the good times are." ”

“…… Is it too late to go back to Saibei now?" Yan Qi heard that Jinxiu failed to enter the top four the year before last, and as a result, the entire comprehensive martial arts team was punished for training every day during the winter and summer vacations.

"Oh yes, thank you for the gift. Wu Ting said with a smile, as soon as Yan Qi came back, he asked people to send the gifts brought back from Saibei to the house, and gave Wu Ting a dagger with antler handles, which was not practical secondly, only the antlers were hunted by Yan Qi himself, and then there was a local minority soldier in the Yan family's army, who was very good at carving antlers, and the craft was passed down from generation to generation by his clansmen, and the carved finished product was beautiful and artistic, and it was also very good to give it as a gift.

"You're welcome, I've also brought back a lot of local soughthorn slices, so if you need them, just ask me for them. "Yan Qi is generous.

“…… I don't need that. Wu Ting glanced at her, and said in his heart, does this thing know what the antler tablets do?

The Yan family's banquet this time also came, but they didn't see Cui Xi, and Cui Xuan, who came to Yan Qi to settle accounts, said that the child fell ill a few days after he went back, because the water and soil were not adaptable...... After staying in Saibei for a while, it was a little uncomfortable to adapt to the climate of Kyoto, and he was pulling and vomiting, fortunately, during that time in Saibei, he often ran around with Yan Qi, and there were five branches to help regulate and supervise the exercise, and the body was much stronger than before, and he was relieved after a few days, but this time Mrs. Cui did not allow him to go out, and he had to watch the root of the disease be eliminated.

After a big banquet was held, people were sleepy, and when the guests were sent away one by one, the female dependents forcibly commanded the family to clean up the remnants of the banquet, and the men were either drunk or too tired to move, and the whole family closed the door for two days before they were fully revived.

After the resurrection, the women can be idle, but the men will continue to be busy, today Yan Zike was invited to drink by this family, and Ming'er Yan Zichen was invited to the banquet by that family, anyway, there is no leisure every day, even Yan Ziheng, the third master Yan Ziheng, who is blind and blind, is invited every day, but the people who invite people to go are all literati and scholars, mainly because of the literary friends, even if they drink, they are just a drink.

Yan Zikai, the fourth master, has been much more normal since his second brother came back, because he had already written a trust Yan Zichen brought him a little eagle cub from Saibei to raise and play, originally Yan Zike could also get him an eagle cub when he was in Beijing, but people were afraid that the species in Beijing was not pure, and he had to get the eagle from the north of the fortress, this time he got what he wanted, fiddling with the eagle at home every day, and it is said that he also planned to participate in the eagle race conference to be held in Beijing during the Shangsi Festival this year.

The adults are busy, the young people are not at ease, several young masters are either invited or invited every day, even Young Master Yan Jiu has rushed to four or five small banquets, Yan Xiaoshi still has his own children's circle, but Yan Qi has nothing to do, every day is to accompany Mrs. Yan, accompany her own mother, accompany Xiao Eleven, and then get together with Yan Ba girl to chat.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Yan Zike was called into the palace before dinner to accompany the emperor to enjoy the lanterns and eat, Yan Zichen went to Beijing to celebrate the festival with his old subordinates and new subordinates, Yan Ziheng was invited by a group of literati to go to a certain teahouse in the city to enjoy the moon and enjoy the lanterns and chant poems, Yan Zikai and his dozen brothers did not know where to go, Yan Fourth Young Master called Yan Da Young Master Yan Third Young Master Yan Jiu Young Master also took Yan Xiaoshi into the city to watch the lanterns, and the female dependents wrapped in Xiao Eleven accompanied the old lady and the old lady into the city as a team to join in the fun, because it was only in the past year that the border army broke the barbarians, eradicated Yao Lida, the traitor, and the people of the wind slaughtered the city to live a normal life again, the emperor is happy, the people are also happy, so this year's fifteenth day of the first month is more prosperous than in previous years, it is not an exaggeration to say that the whole city is out.

Then there was only one Yan Qi left on the island.

I found an excuse that it was inconvenient to make trouble, and I didn't go into the city with the Yan family, so I just nestled on the kang in the Asuka House and read by the light. When the full moon was on the branches, I heard the rain come in and spread the word: "A branch is below, saying that the eldest master invited the girl to Tianshui Pavilion for a while." ”

He came back early. Yan Qi put down the book, dragged a wool cloak and draped it on his body and went down to the tree, followed a branch to the lake, and saw that the big painting boat as the "Tianshui Pavilion" was moored on the shore, only the light in the study on the second floor was on, and the shadow was printed with a figure who was feeding the parrot, which was even brought to the island by the parrot narcissus.

Yan Qi got on the painting boat, knocked on the door and went in, and saw Yan Zike wearing a porcelain blue home-style shirt, which looked very thin and cold in this season, but his hair was rarely scattered, and there was a little moisture, as if he had just bathed, holding a small comb in his hand, but instead of combing his hair, he was sorting out the feathers for Narcissus , continued to fiddle with the narcissus, the four branches brought the hot tea and took the door out, the narcissus tilted his head, looked over Yan Zike's shoulder, and saw Yan Qi waving at it, so he shouted: "An An, An An An An!"

"Why don't you go and see the lights? Yan Zike turned around and glanced at Yan Qi, and threw the small comb in his hand on the small table next to him.

"I'm still a few hours away from becoming an adult, so I'm a little nervous. "Yan Qidao.

Yan Zike laughed softly, sat down on the couch by the window, tilted his head slightly, and looked at the wick in the glass lampshade on the lamppost: "A few hours and more than ten years seem to be no different, they are just a blink of an eye." In the blink of an eye, you are grown, and in the blink of an eye, I will be old. ”

"You must know that time is ineffective for some people," Yan Qidao, "I remember a person who is always young once said that the best way to immortalize is to never remember the past. ”

"Hehehe. ”

"Seriously, let's give it a try. ”

"Good. ”

"But before that, I have something to tell you about the past. 166 Reading Network
