68. Chiaki
"This matter was all done by Ah Jiuyi, and no one instructed him." Ah Jiu simply admitted it, knelt on the ground with a plop, and bowed his head.
Su Yao originally didn't know if this matter was done by Ah Jiu, but at that time, he heard a few gossips from Su Ying, saying that someone had witnessed the assassin, and after listening to her description, he only said that the person was as light as a swallow and sealed his throat when he saw blood, his actions were simply sharp, and his posture seemed to be that of a woman, which was really similar to Ah Jiu, but he just wanted to deceive her, but he didn't expect it to be her.
Although Ah Jiu admitted his mistake, Su Yao didn't understand that to become the shadow guard of the East Palace, Ah Jiu should have an innocent background, how could he have a relationship with the military department? Looking at the distant night sky, a waning moon is hanging in the sky, Su Yao sounded the moonlight on the night of the palace change, she entered the palace from the north of the city to look for the talisman, the leader of the Yulin Army who was rebelled by Ah Jiu had asked her, he said, I ask the queen to treat Ah Chan well......
"Your former name was Ah Chan?" Thinking of this, Su Yao also asked. In the past, she only asked Ah Jiu's life experience, because Ah Jiu was the person Ye Lin gave her, she believed Ye Lin, and she believed that he would not send an unreliable person to her casually, but the information she knew now may not have been known by Ye Lin, Ah Jiu is her personal guard, and she needs to be at ease with this person.
And at this time, only by clearly knowing Ah Jiu's past can Su Yao really put his mind at ease.
A question fell to the ground coldly, no one answered, and when Su Yao moved his gaze back to Ah Jiu, the man was looking at Su Yao with his head tilted and his face surprised.
Su Yao smiled, "What's wrong?" Surprised that Hongu knows your maiden name? ”
Ah Jiu nodded without hesitation, and his bright face was clearly puzzled.
"Would you like to tell me why you went to assassinate Songs?" Su Yao still looked at her with a smile, sat down on the mat on the side, and added: "You don't have to worry, the palace has just sent brocade sleeves and the palace ladies to exit the second hall gate, and no one will hear it."
Ah Jiu bit his lip at this time, and told Su Yao his motives as he could.
Song Si, the secretary of the military department, was originally a figure of the regent's faction, and slowly climbed up with a little cleverness to shoot the horse, and now he is over sixty years old, and when he reaches the end of the year, he will return to his hometown to live in his hometown, and he will not set off any big storms. Because of this, Ye Lin didn't move him, saving his energy to deal with the other henchmen of the Regent's Palace, who would have thought that he would be indiscriminately assassinated by Ah Jiu, but instead he had to divide Ye Lin's heart, and it was the best choice to pay attention to who was placed in such an important position.
She doesn't know much about the previous dynasty, but there are a lot of chaotic books on weekdays, many of them are from the people, and they also represent the views of some people.
After listening to Ah Jiu's words, she suddenly felt a little regret and self-blame in her heart when she thought about it carefully.
It turned out that the north gate of the imperial city was caused by the leader who rebelled that day. In the years that Song Si has been in charge, the military department has always been corrupted, and the rewards and punishments for merit and demerits are all based on filial piety, of course, how much silver, that is, Ye Lin has experienced the case of the Ministry of Rites since he took power. The leader is also upright and temperamental, and it is clear that the night of the palace change is a great achievement, just because he refuses to summon the silver to be counted, he was actually impersonated by someone to receive a reward and suppress him.
The leader was naturally not angry, and repeatedly provoked Song Si to be unhappy, and was plotted by the person who replaced him to break into the forbidden place that should not be broken, and was punished by Song Si without saying anything, so he tattooed and sent him to the eastern border.
It was also the leader who was destined for this catastrophe, and on the way to Qingzhou, he encountered a team of water bandits, and the leader was pushed into the river with shackles in the chaos, and since then there has been no news, and his life and death are unknown.
Speaking of which, Su Yao roughly guessed that the leader was naturally more than lucky, listening to Ah Jiu's meaning, the leader was also from Changning, and most of them were landlubbers who couldn't wet water, not to mention shackles. Ah Jiu, this is to count all the resentment and sorrow on the misjudged Song Si.
In fact, Su Yao also has some responsibility for this, she forgot about the leader and Ah Jiu when she entered the palace, thinking that someone would reward her, but she would have thought that the military department would be so depraved, and there would be an impostor.
It's just that Ah Jiu has also been a shadow guard in the East Palace for many years, and he shouldn't lose his mind like this anyway, Su Yao was puzzled, and before he could ask her, he heard a commotion outside the hall, and the brocade sleeves raised his voice and shouted outside the hall: "Welcome to Your Majesty, may Your Majesty be happy forever!"
Su Yao frowned, and was about to raise his voice to ask what was going on, but the person had already broken down the door, ignoring Su Yao's surprise, he grabbed her wrist and walked out.
Where is Su Yao's opponent Ye Lin, he trotted all the way to his dormitory, and then stopped, a little out of breath for a while, and said angrily: "I haven't finished asking Ah Jiu yet."
The gentle smile on the face of the person in front of her almost melted her, and Su Yao's original sentence "Your Majesty, what kind of hysteria is this committed again" was choked in her throat by that smile, her eyes widened, and after holding each other for a while, she finally turned her head and sighed, and said, "Forget it, you have something important, you don't even say hello, just drag people over?"
Ye Lin raised his hand to help her straighten her sideburns, which looked a little messy because of her hurried steps, and said softly, "Ah Yao, don't you remember what day it is?"
What day could it be, the anniversary of the day she knocked him down? Su Yao shook his head, and while he was relieved, he glanced at him with his eyes.
Ye Lin also ignored Su Yao's bad attitude, and only explained straight to the point: "Today is September 10th, the Thousand Autumn Festival."
Oh...... Thousand Autumn Festival...... Su Yao also knows about this festival, which is almost equivalent to the Shangyuan Festival in the modern sense, and the ladies and sons can go to the street to enjoy the lanterns and guess the lantern riddles, and there are not a few who have made a lifelong promise between their eyebrows. It is said that the current founding emperor fell in love with the legendary Autumn Empress at first sight at the Thousand Autumn Festival, so the Yan Dynasty attached more importance to this festival than the previous dynasty. It's just that the Qianqiu Festival is a folk festival, and it has always had nothing to do with the royal family, and even the palace has never had any festive atmosphere, and Su Yao didn't take this Qianqiu Festival to heart at all because of this.
However, looking at Ye Lin's appearance, he was very interested.
"So what?" Su Yao asked herself, and she was a little ashamed of herself, but she didn't dare to think about it, this person wouldn't be a whim, and she wanted to pay a visit!
Thinking like this, the whole person was turned around by Ye Lin, and he also urged: "There are your clothes in the room, go and change them, the crowd will catch up when it is late, and it will be a lot of trouble to get out of the palace at that time."
Su Yao: ......
He still plans to go out and have fun with the people of Changning.
However, since it was the emperor's order, Su Yao honestly went to the inner room to change clothes. She has only been in the Wild Goose Dynasty for a year, and she has never seen what the Valentine's Day of the Wild Goose Dynasty looks like, thinking that it would be good to have the opportunity to go out of the palace to breathe, and she was even more charming, thinking wildly, is this their first date?
There was a stack of clothes on the soft dragon couch, and a simple mask was buttoned on it, Su Yao picked up the mask, brought it to his eyes, and then started to take off his clothes.
Unexpectedly, Ye Lin actually prepared a set of men's clothes for her.
Su Yao pursed his lips and tried on the clothes on his body, not big or small, just right. I was a little surprised in my heart, but it was not surprising when I thought that Ye Lin knew everything. It's really unfair to think like this, he knows everything, but she doesn't know anything about the past and the future.
After changing his clothes, Su Yao also took the mask with him, and felt sorry for himself for a moment in front of the huge bronze mirror that fell to the ground, only to see that the boy in the mirror was purple-dressed and black-haired, with a jade crown and a mask, and his back was straight, but he was a graceful and graceful boy.
Su Yao had never seen Su Yao Qianqiu wearing men's clothes, but now when he saw it, he was shocked at first, and quickly regretted that if Su Yao was taller, men's clothing would be on par with Ye Lin.
When she dressed up and walked out of the room, Ye Lin had already changed into a white dress, with the folding fan pinned to her waist as usual, and a hideous and terrifying mask in her hand, standing quietly by the ever-bright lamp, watching her come step by step.
He remembered that Su Yaoyao had always longed for the Thousand Autumn Lantern Festival, and kept talking about going outside the palace to have a look. But at that time, he was too busy, always saying yes, and he didn't really prepare seriously. Later, when the day really came, he had important government affairs and couldn't leave, so naturally it was impossible to ask Su Yao to go out alone, so he just gave up.
He remembered how unhappy Su Yao was at that time, and he didn't lose his temper with him, and sat alone on the jade steps of Fengwu Hall for a night. It's a pity that Fengwu Palace is too far away to hear the excitement in Changning.
By the time he was done and went to Fengwu Hall to find her, Su Yao had already fallen asleep leaning on the marble pillar. The man's sleeping face in the moonlight broke his heart peacefully. He would rather her quarrel with him, trouble him, or even beat him unreasonably, than for her to be so quiet and virtuous. The more she understood him and accommodated him, the more he blamed himself and felt guilty. At that time, he made up his mind that he must take Su Yao out of the palace during the Qianqiu Festival in the second year, and take a walk like an ordinary lover, but he didn't expect that she was no longer by his side during the Qianqiu Festival in the second year......
Ye Lin slowly showed a thin and sad smile, and stretched out his palm towards Su Yao, it's really good, he still has a chance, and he has a chance to do it again. This time, she was still beside him.
