γFanwai Butterfly Club 1γAre you married?
[Note: The time point is one year after Wang Cheng's wedding]
In March, the night rain continued, silently moistening the willow that had just pulled out the buds, and it was quiet.
In the imperial study, Sixi's father-in-law said cautiously: "Your Majesty, it's time to eat." β
Chu Yuan put down the fold, rubbed his temples, and asked, "Is the prince back?" β
Sixi's father-in-law replied, "No." β
Chu Yuan: "......"
Sixi's father-in-law guessed again: "The prince may have been delayed by something outside." β
It takes so long to go out to meet a friend in the rivers and lakes? Chu Yuan looked at the sky again, and the rain seemed to be heavier.
Sixi's father-in-law was tempted: "Do you want to send someone to find the prince back?" β
Chu Yuan waved his hand: "No need, probably because I saw that it was raining heavily, I went to the brocade shop to rest." β
As soon as the words fell, sure enough, the guards of the Southwest Mansion came back to report that the prince had something to do tonight, and he was afraid that he would not return to the palace until tomorrow morning.
Chu Yuan asked, "What's the matter?" β
The guard said, "It's said to help keep an eye on a female snitch." β
Chu Yuan: "......"
Female snitch?
Sixi also wondered why this kind of thing that the government and yamen should worry about should actually have to be done by the prince himself.
Outside the inn, Duan Baiyue was squatting on the roof of a house, holding her cheeks and staring at the movement not far away, her white clothes on her shoulders were wet from the rain, and her cheeks were slightly cold.
In the middle of the night, there was a small rustling sound behind me, very slight, as if someone was moving. Duan Baiyue frowned secretly, it stands to reason that there are many guards from the Southwest Mansion in ambush at the mouth of the alley, and there are still people who can sneak in? But the footsteps don't look like a peerless master. Wondering in his heart, his right hand immediately silently held the Xuanming Cold Iron on his waist, and swept it slightly sideways, but the whole person was stunned.
Seeing that it seemed to have been discovered by him, the black figure climbed over the wall and swept rapidly into the distance, Duan Baiyue flew down the tree and caught up with him in two steps, grabbed the person, and exclaimed: "Xiao Yuan? β
Chu Yuan: "......"
Chu Yuan: "......"
Chu Yuan: "......"
Duan Baiyue reached out and pulled off his masked scarf.
Chu Yuan said expressionlessly: "Bold." β
Looking at him in a black night suit, Duan Baiyue felt that her brain was a little knotted: "Why are you here." β
Chu Yuan pouted: "You care about me." "Come if you want to, the whole world is not the king's land, not to mention that this is the royal city.
There was a thunderclap in the sky, Duan Baiyue pulled someone to hide under the eaves, and patted the rain on his shoulder: "It's so cold outside, if you want to find me to send someone to pass the word, wear so thin, don't catch a cold again tomorrow morning." β
"What are you doing here?" Chu Yuan really didn't want to talk about clothing anymore. As soon as he heard the guards say that Duan Baiyue was spying in the palace before, he naturally felt that he should wear night clothes, but he didn't expect this person to be so blatant, squatting on the roof of someone else's house in white, but he looked like he was stupid.
As soon as Duan Baiyue beckoned, the rest of the guards immediately stepped forward and continued to stare at the inn in his place.
Chu Yuan said: "You go and do your thing, don't worry about me." β
"Just staring at a little girl, others can do it." Duan Baiyue clenched his hand tightly, "Is it cold?" β
"What are you doing staring at other people's little girls in the middle of the night?" Chu Yuan kicked him in dissatisfaction.
Duan Baiyue said with a smile: "It's really not that I want to star, the story is long, in short, the little girl in the courtyard is good-looking, and her martial arts are also good, so there are many people in the rivers and lakes who like it, and I have a friend who is not far away, chasing her all the way from Yunnan to this royal city, who knows that she fell ill in the inn without adapting to the water and soil, vomiting and diarrhea and couldn't get up with a high fever." β
Chu Yuan: "......"
Sounds a bit unlucky.
"Worried that having an enemy would be unfavorable to this little girl, he came to me and said that he must come forward in person, and he can't leave it to the guards." Duan Baiyue said, "Thinking about it for only one or two nights, he didn't shirk it, and besides, his father was kind to me back then." β
"But why do you say it's a female snitch?" Chu Yuan was puzzled.
"I don't know anything about the Central Plains rivers and lakes, have you heard Lord Shen mention a snitch named Xiao Tan before?" Duan Baiyue asked.
Chu Yuan shook his head: "I've never heard of it." β
"That's right." Duan Baiyue said, "It's just a little girl who has just come out of the school, and she shouldn't be able to enter the eyes of the Shen Alliance Master." She is a person from Feiwumen, she is used to being rude and willful on weekdays, and she can't stand the strict rules, so she escaped by herself, perhaps because she spent all the money in her hand, so she often broke into the gates at night to steal, so she got the name of a snitch. β
"It's a good girl's house, what are you doing to be a thief." Chu Yuan shook his head, "If your friend really likes her, she should persuade her to stop messing around, otherwise even if the court doesn't interfere in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, sooner or later someone will make trouble with the Wulin League." β
"I know, I'll tell him." Duan Baiyue glanced at the inn again and said, "I was not at ease before, so I came to watch it in person, but now it seems that there is nothing to do, and it is enough for people from the Southwest Mansion to stay here, I will take you back?" β
"If you promise others, you will do things well." Chu Yuan patted his chest, "It's almost dawn, keep watch, and you can go to the breakfast stall to eat a bowl of tofu flower later." β
Duan Baiyue tugged at his clothes: "How can anyone run around in this black at dawn." β
Chu Yuan: "......"
"Ahem." Duan Baiyue lowered her head and quickly dropped a kiss on his cheek, "Okay, okay, let's go to the brocade shop when it's almost dawn and change our clothes." β
Chu Yuan just didn't hear it, and turned over on the roof by himself.
Although the rain had stopped, the chill had deepened. Duan Baiyue hugged him into her arms, asked from time to time if she was cold, and said a few words of love to make her happy, and by the way, she discussed whether she wanted to eat tofu flower first tomorrow morning, or go to eat Yangchun noodles first, but she waited until dawn quite quickly.
"Let's go." Duan Baiyue said, "Finally all night together, let's go back to the brocade workshop." β
Chu Yuan yawned and said, "Sleepy." β
Duan Baiyue couldn't cry or laugh, holding his cheeks with both hands: "Otherwise, don't go to the court today, and rest outside for a day, huh?" β
Chu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I'll think about it." β
"Recently, there has been nothing to do in the DPRK for two months in a row, so why care about this day." Duan Baiyue pushed him out, "I don't expect to be recorded in history, it doesn't matter if it's a troubled dynasty, you can sleep well according to me." β
Chu Yuan was amused, leaned back and bumped him with the back of his head.
The guards were guarding the mouth of the alley, as if they had something to say, Duan Baiyue motioned for him to come in, and after asking, he realized that in the second half of the night last night, two men had come to hang around here, looking suspicious, but they didn't do anything, and they turned around and went to the south not long after.
Chu Yuan said: "If you didn't do anything today, it doesn't mean that you won't do anything in the future, let's go tell your friend." β
Duan Baiyue nodded, and after the guards left, she smiled and said, "You and I didn't hide our whereabouts last night, unless the other party is a fool, then we will naturally leave quickly after seeing it." β
"Why are you friends, the people in the picture more noisy than the other." Chu Yuan held hands with him and slowly walked towards the brocade workshop, "Sikong is being chased by dogs, this is chasing the ends of the earth, and he has to protect him in secret from time to time." β
"That is, everyone can't be like me." Duan Baiyue said, "My daughter-in-law is good-looking and considerate, and she responds to requests, and instructs the cook to give me stewed bird's nest supplements every day." After speaking, he added, "I will also wash rice." β
Chu Yuan turned his head and asked, "When are you going to introduce your daughter-in-law who can wash rice to me?" β
Duan Baiyue: "......"
Duan Baiyue said: "The weather is good today. β
Chu Yuan smiled in his eyes, and pushed the door into the brocade workshop.
The weather is indeed good, and the morning sun is shining brightly in the sky. Duan Baiyue picked a lighter dress to change for him, it was a water blue that he rarely wears on weekdays, and it seemed that the whole person was a little less domineering and a little more polite.
Duan Baiyue said: "It's good-looking." β
Chu Yuan said: "You can't keep staring at it if it's good-looking." β
Duan Baiyue held his hand: "Do you really want to go out to eat by yourself?" It's cold outside, and it's okay to send someone to buy it back. β
"Leaving the palace is just to breathe, otherwise it is better to go to the court." Chu Yuan pulled his face and shook it, "Hurry up, the tofu flowers are going to be sold out." "If you can't eat it, you will go to the cold palace tonight and sleep with the plum tree in your arms.
There are a lot of tofu flowers sold in this royal city, but Chu Yuan loves to eat only this one, he wants to eat it when he is sick, and he has to eat it when he has no appetite. When the news spread, the business was naturally doubled, and there were usually people queuing up before the stall came out, and the people who came to Wangcheng from outside had to eat a bowl anyway, so that they could show off to their fellow villagers.
As usual, the two of them found a private room to sit in the teahouse opposite the stall, Duan Baiyue went out to buy tofu flowers, Chu Yuan ordered a pot of tea and waited for him to come back, but before he could soak it, a person suddenly came in from the window.
β¦β¦
The Imperial Forest Army in the shadows didn't expect that this person would have such a fast speed, and he was about to rush forward, but he was stopped by Chu Yuan secretly raising his hand, so he retreated again.
The uninvited guest is a little girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with big eyes and a small nose, which is not stunning, but it is also an unforgettable beautiful face - it is Xiao Tan that Duan Baiyue has been guarding last night.
Chu Yuan guessed her identity and said with a smile: "What's the matter, the girl has something to do with me?" β
"I ...... Just look at the windows open here, come in and hide. Xiao Tan said, "Don't drive me out, there's a stinky man outside who wants to take advantage of me, and I'll leave when he leaves." β
Chu Yuan asked, "Do you want to help the girl report to the official?" β
"Don't." Xiao Tan quickly shook his head, worried that he would be discovered, so he simply reached out and closed the window.
A group of Imperial Forest Army and the guards of the Southwest Mansion looked at each other, this ......
"Are you the son of the king of this royal city?" Xiao Tan asked.
Chu Yuan nodded: "Sort of." β
Xiao Tan said: "Then are you married?" β
Chu Yuan smiled: "Naturally. β
Xiao Tan said: "Your daughter-in-law must be very good-looking." β
Chu Yuan said: "Well, the country is overwhelmed. β
As soon as the words fell, Duan Baiyue came back with two bowls of tofu flowers, but she didn't expect that there was an extra girl in the house, and she frowned a little for a while.
Xiao Tan glanced at Chu Yuan and asked again, "Is it your friend?" β
Chu Yuan smiled and did not answer.
That's it, Xiao Tan looked at Duan Baiyue: "Then, are you married?" β
Duan Baiyue: "......"
Chu Yuan couldn't help but smile and secretly made a gesture for him.
Duan Baiyue nodded: "It's done." β
"No matter how good-looking, they are married." Xiao Tan stomped his foot, "If I knew this was the case, I should have come to the royal city earlier." β
Duan Baiyue said: "If the girl wants to marry, there are still many young talents in this city. β
"Phew, who's going to get married!" Xiao Tan squirted out a mouthful of tea, dropped the tea bowl and ran out.
Duan Baiyue watched her go downstairs all the way, turned around and said, "This little girl's shy way can be regarded as chic." β
"Guess who she is?" Chu Yuan asked.
"Who else can you guess if you look at the age and look at the weapon." Duan Baiyue said, "Why did you come here, could it be that she was discovered staring at her last night?" β
"It's not like it's all the way, it should be a panic." Chu Yuan said, "It is said that there is a stinky man outside who wants to despise her, and it is estimated that it is your friend." β
"Although Yu Jue has no door and no faction, she is also a rising star, how can she be despised on the street." Duan Baiyue shook her head, "I'm afraid it's this little girl talking nonsense again." β
Xiao Tan walked out of the restaurant and turned all the way into the alley, but it happened to be blocked by someone on the dead end, it was a group of women in Xuanyi.
β¦β¦
"Is your friend good-looking?" Chu Yuan asked, "Just look at that little girl, she should only like good-looking men." β
Duan Baiyue shook her head: "It's not just her, but also those who come out of Feiwumen, they all like good-looking men." β
Chu Yuan: "......"
Chu Yuan said: "Why does it sound like a cult." β
Duan Baiyue said with a smile: "You are wrong, everyone has a love for beauty, and it is right to like good-looking people, but it is wrong to snatch good-looking people back." β
"This is it?" Outside the teahouse, a woman in Xuanyi asked.
"Yes!" Xiao Tan nodded, "Two men, one is better looking than the other, tall and handsome, and they haven't married yet, the mother-in-law of the door owner must like it!" "So you go and grab it, as long as you don't follow me anymore, you can say anything.
When the Royal Foresters in the shadows heard this, they all felt quite complicated.
Listening to this posture, is someone trying to rob the emperor and the prince to go back to get married?
Chu Yuan finished eating the last spoonful of tofu flowers and said, "The taste is a little light today. β
"I ate this bun too." Duan Baiyue said, "Yangchun noodles will be eaten later, I have already asked Duan Nian to tell the stall owner and ask him to keep two bowls of noodles until noon." β
"I don't stop having breakfast." Chu Yuan sighed.
Duan Baiyue smiled: "Heard? β
"I'm not deaf, just outside the stairs of the big battle." Chu Yuan held the tea cup and drank it slowly, "Don't eat the buns, remove the dishes and bowls, and then bring people in." β
In the hall outside the private room, the guests had already run away. Only the boss was trembling and hiding behind the pillar, and for some reason a group of girls suddenly poured in, and for some reason the Royal Forest Army would fall from the sky and capture this group of people with lightning speed - he clearly had done nothing, and he was a good person.
"Is the little girl still there?" Chu Yuan asked.
"If you attract the enemy, you will run away a long time ago." Duan Baiyue said, "If you don't have a few good light skills, how can you break into so many Jianghu sects one after another, but with her sweetheart to chase, you and I won't interfere, why don't you bring those people outside in and ask first?" 166 Reading Network
