After drinking a little too much, Yu Yan collapsed on the couch with her clothes together, only to feel a burning body, took off her dirty clothes, let her back stick directly to the smooth and cold silk, took a handkerchief, and gently fanned her face, and then looked at the honey sting on her fingers, like a drop of blood.

I was groggy all night, and I didn't know how to fall asleep, and when I woke up, it was already dawn.

Stretching out, Nian Nian Nian was drying clothes in the yard and cleaning the courtyard. Nian En was thoughtful, afraid that someone would plot against her, so she made her own clothes and meals. Although she lives in an independent courtyard like the fourth lady, she does not have the usual silver of the fourth lady, but fortunately, Yu Yan still has some silver in stock, which can support it for a few days.

Seeing her come out, Nian An ran over to serve her, Nian En threw off the clothes in his hand, hung them on the rope, turned his head to look at her, and said:

"Niangniang, Mrs. Mingyue is badly injured, everyone has gone to see it, you can go too. Look"

"Hmm." Yu Yan also wanted to see if the scars on their arms were the same as hers, something like blood beads.

ate slowly, and called Shang Nianen to take a look at Ye Mingyue's courtyard together.

"Slaves and maids also go." Nian An chased to the gate of the courtyard and whispered begging for forgiveness.

"Look at the courtyard, don't go anywhere." Yu Yan rewarded her with a sharp look, and Nian An obediently retracted her head.

"Mother, don't you bring a gift?" Nian'en asked her softly.

"She's so rich, what do you want? We just went to visit the sick and didn't have to bring anything. Yu Yan shook her head.

Nian En didn't say more, the master and servant walked through the pear blossom forest, far away, I saw Qiu Xuanling coming over with her cheeks, as soon as she saw her, she immediately ran in front of her, and when she arrived in front of her, she removed her hand covering her cheeks, let Yu Yan look at her face, and said in a crying voice:

"Sister, look at my face, I'm finished, I'm ugly like this, the prince must hate me."

When Yu Yan saw it, she gasped, the right side of this girl's face was all swollen, bright red, and frighteningly red.

"And Sister Mingyue's arm, that's terrible! The doctor said that if the poison could not be retreated, the arm would be useless, and he would no longer be able to play the lute. Qiu Xuanling pointed to Ye Mingyue's courtyard again, and tears fell down.

"Red and swollen like you?" Yu Yan asked in a low voice.

"What's more, Sister Mingyue is in so much pain that she wants to die, and the prince has been with her." Qiu Xuanling wiped a handful of tears and said with a sob.

Yu Yan felt a little sorry, she just wanted to scare those people, she didn't want these bees to be so poisonous! But why is she okay?

She lifted her finger to look at it, staring at the bead of blood silently.

"Sister, why are you okay? What medications did you take? Qiu Xuanling looked at her finger and asked curiously.

"I just picked out the stinger and washed it with wine." Yu Yan coped with it, pulled her legs and walked towards Ye Mingyue's Cuilang courtyard, she wanted to see the injury on Ye Mingyue's arm with her own eyes.

"The prince is in a very bad mood, my sister should be careful when she speaks." Qiu Xuanling shouted at her.

Yu Yan turned her head and nodded with a smile, "Mrs. Xie Xie reminded." ”

Qiu Xuanling waved at her and walked forward with the maid.

"Niangniang, it's better not to go, the prince already knows that you are deliberate, if you are angry, you will be punished......" Nian'en grabbed her sleeve and whispered to persuade her.

"No, you must take a look, this matter is strange." Yu Yan shook her head, gently withdrew her sleeves, and walked faster.

Seeing that she was coming, the maid in Cuilang Courtyard hurriedly went in to report, and after a while, she came out to lead the two in.

Yu Lixiao and Chen Yao were there, the room was full of medicinal smells, and the maids and maids were holding their breath, and they didn't dare to breathe loudly. Seeing her come in, Yu Lixiao only glanced at her coldly, and then looked at the glass couch with a big tent with gold silk tassels.

"Lord Wang, Mrs. Yao."

Yu Yan saluted, went straight to the couch, lifted the brocade lightly, looked at Ye Mingyue's arm, and immediately covered her lips and exclaimed.

Applying a full arm of dark green herbs, faintly revealing the black and red color, her eyes were crying so much that there was only a slit left, and she was still choking up.

But yesterday she obviously had brocade sleeves to cover it, no matter how many bees there were, at most they stung the back of their hands and wrists, how could they become like this with their big arms?

"Lord Wang, can you take a step to speak?" She turned around and whispered to Yu Lixiao.

Yu Lixiao didn't say anything, but Chen Yao waved his hand lightly and said in a low voice: "You all go out." ”

The maids hurriedly retreated, there were only four of them in the room, and Ye Mingyue cried softly from time to time. Chen Yao went over to look at Ye Mingyue, turned to Yu Yan and said:

"Yu Yan, you misunderstood me yesterday, this snow cream is indeed fragrant enough to attract bees and butterflies, but I have no intention of harming you. Since the prince let you know the truth, you are the closest person, a person who can live and die with me, you and I should work together to serve the prince well, and we must not let the prince's backyard cause trouble and ruin the prince's affairs. Mingyue's family is in charge of the nine major money houses for the prince, and there are two shipping lines. If something happens to Mingyue, so that outsiders have a chance to take advantage of it, you will let the prince have too many troubles. ”

Yu Yan lowered her eyes and listened, and when she finished speaking, she smiled and said softly: "It was Mrs. Yao who misunderstood, it was indeed accidentally dropped." It's a pity that it fell in the back garden, and if it fell in my small yard, you wouldn't be affected by it. ”

"You ......" Chen Yao's face turned pale again.

In terms of eloquence, Chen Yao really can't get half of the benefits from Yu Yan, Yu Yan didn't speak before, but since yesterday's matter has been done, she will never bear it alone, what Chen Yao is thinking, only she knows the truth.

"Also, the prince is strategizing, no matter how much Mrs. Mingyue's family does for the prince, it is all duty." Yu Yan smiled and whispered again.

Chen Yao's face sank, pulled her fingers, and whispered, "Then how is your injury?" I didn't ask anyone to see it yesterday. ”

"Life is big, life is hard, it's really nothing wrong, or it's a good wash with wine." Yu Yan raised her finger for the two of them to see, her bright eyes swept over Chen Yao, met Yu Lixiao's gaze, and asked, "Lord Wang, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Only then did Yu Lixiao push the wheels of the wheelchair hard, turned around, and said lightly: "Chen Yao, you take good care of Mingyue here." ”

"Yes." Chen Yao hurriedly saluted, the anger on his face could no longer be hidden, and when he was blessed, the fingertips of his hands were twisted white.

Yu Yan glanced at her, went over and pushed his wheelchair to the door, let the guards in, carried him out of the room, and then pushed him to the open area alone.

The more empty it is, the less likely it is to be overheard.

It wasn't until he got under a bush of bamboos that Yu Yan spread his fingers again, let him see the blood beads on his fingertips, and whispered: "Lord, you have a lot of poisons in this palace, spiders, bees, all insects, here are the masters of these poisonous insects, if you don't find him, I'm afraid that there will be something out to make trouble." ”

Yu Lixiao stared at her face for a long time before he said lightly: "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth." ”

Yu Yan was silent for a while, and said softly: "The women's backyard fights, the prince watches the play, and there is no loss, maybe the prince is really afraid that Mingyue's family will not do things for the prince." ”

"Fart." He scolded lightly, his tone flat.

Yu Yan raised her eyes to look at him, and knew that he was the one who knew what she said last night.

The two looked at each other for a moment before he said in a deep voice: "Why are you talking to this king?" ”

"Yu Yan is willing to work for the prince and find out the truth of this matter." Yu Yan groaned and said softly.

"Tell the truth." He only sneered and stared at her.

Yu Yan coughed dryly, raised her fingers, and whispered: "Obviously all have been stung by bees, Mrs. Yao is because she has dealt with these since she was a child, and she is protected by medicine...... If I don't mention it, maybe the prince won't check ......."

"If you are afraid of death, it would be good if you put on your wings and fly, but remember, if you dare to stretch out your wings, this king will shoot you down with an arrow." Yu Lixiao sneered again, turned his wheelchair and wanted to leave.

"Lord Wang...... I'm drunk...... Yu Yan chased after him and said softly: "Besides, what if these are used to harm the prince?" ”

"This king is invincible." He said lightly.

Yu Yan stopped, her eyebrows twisted slightly, and she walked forward slowly with him. Damn stingy buns, she was obviously afraid of being plotted, so she paid attention to her small courtyard, afraid that she would plot against him, and say that all poisons would not invade!

At this time, he turned his head again, glanced at her, and said in a deep voice: "There is one more thing, Yu Yan, you have to remember that this king never needs a woman to do anything for this king, this king brings Chen Yao and Ye Mingyue by his side, just because they can make this king happy." You too, no matter how smart you are, how much you can quarrel, how many lawsuits you have, this king is happy and willing to let you go, so you can do these things. Otherwise, the king will break your wings and cut your feathers, so that you will never be able to fly, nor be happy. Yesterday's incident, this king does not want to pursue it, because this king is still happy to look at you. ”

Yu Yan stopped talking, what a kind of man this is, Ye Mingyue was injured like that, he just said that he was happy......

"Accompany this king out of the house." His voice came from the front, and although it was a companion, it was imperative.

Yu Yan followed slowly, not going to the main gate, but at a very remote corner gate, his carriage was already waiting, he got up directly and got into the carriage, Yu Yan was stunned for a moment, subconsciously looked around, and then reached out to climb up.

Or maybe it was the look she had just looked around nervously that pleased him, and he reached out and pulled her.

This time, he didn't use his dazzling purple canopy carriage, just an ordinary black ebony carriage for women. If he only sits alone, he is barely spacious, but it is two people, and he is so tall and occupies a lot of space.

Yu Yan sat still, moved her position so as not to get too close to him, and asked in a low voice, "How can you stand up like that?" ”

He turned his head to look at her and said in a deep voice, "Are you worried about this king?" ”

Multiply...... Yu Yan gasped, she was afraid that she would be seen and treat her as an accomplice! Of course, she didn't dare to speak, only smiled, clinged to the wooden plank of the carriage, and gently wiped the red dot with a handkerchief that pointed to the blood-beaded red spot.

The carriage swayed out, and he suddenly said, "I can't die." ”

Well, is that the bee sting, or is it about what she is looking around?

He stopped talking and rested against the mat.

Yu Yan gently lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, and the carriage was heading south. The south side is mostly a place for the children of the nobility to have fun, chess halls, wine shops, and dog racing are all places where a lot of money needs to be invested.

Suddenly, he began to notice Suosuo's movements around him, Yu Yan turned his head to look at him, he was taking off the ugly mask, and touched another mask to cover it, a black hair draped behind him, and changed into a purple cloth robe, without any gorgeous patterns on it, only a line of silver auspicious clouds embroidered on the cuffs. The face of his face was a little dark, making him look like an ordinary dart master walking the rivers and lakes.

The car slowly passed through the road in the south of the city, and there was no stop at any of the liquor stores and chess halls. Yu Yan began to be curious, not knowing where he had gone.

He began to change his shoes again, the kind of shoes with black cloth on a white background that ordinary people often wear. Yu Yan squeezed to the side of the carriage and continued to stare at the various shops that were slowly retreating outside the carriage. Suddenly, the largest book market in Beijing appeared in front of you!

Yu Yan's heart beat faster, her hands covered her chest, and she poked her head out, her eyes full of joy.

Every year at the end of spring, there will be a big test, students from all over the world go to Beijing to take the exam, some come early, bring new books from all over the country, and there are also poems and dramas written by the talents themselves.

Yu Yan can walk since she can, and she comes with her father every year, and she is still thinking about when she will have time to come this year. She entered the book market, but she was like a fish in the sea, and she didn't want to go back!

The carriage stopped.

Yu Lixiao pushed open the carriage door and went down, and said indifferently: "Wait for me here." ”

"Huh?" Yu Yan was anxious when she heard this, how could she miss such a good opportunity? She grabbed his sleeve and hurriedly begged him, "The prince will take me." ”

"You want people to recognize you?" He said coldly.

"Do you have a mask, give me one." Yu Yan tugged at his sleeve and didn't let go.

"Whoa." He pointed to the white-haired hood that was set aside.

Yu Yan's eyebrows and eyes were squeezed, and she looked at him sadly.

In fact, Yu Yan really pleased Yu Lixiao, from the time she wanted to talk to him alone, to the nervous appearance when she got into the carriage, which made Yu Lixiao happy. He felt that a person had to have a mind before he could show it, although Yu Yan had a hard mouth, but these few times he got along with him, he did not reject it as before, and even catered to him......

Yu Lixiao's feelings, put it in Yu Yan's place, then there is only one word to describe it...... Treat unjustly!

She was just afraid of death, and she didn't want to give her life unjustly, so she just wanted to know the truth of the Dao, as for what pandering? That's also extremely tired, too lazy to resist.

The two stared at each other for a moment, and then he took Fang Jinpa out of his arms, folded it in half into a triangle, and tied it to her face.

"The face is small, just right." He slammed his palm on her handy face, stared at the birthmark on her forehead and twisted his eyebrows, and scattered her hair to cover the bright half of her wings.

"Shawl?" Yu Yan touched her hair, a little hesitant.

"This king doesn't dislike it." He then gave her his hand and pulled her down.

Yu Yan was a little surprised at this time, she only found trouble for him yesterday and injured Mrs. Mingyue, who made him happy, he was still able to happily take her out, is it really the old saying - men always love newcomers to laugh, who cares about old people crying every night!

The two entered the book market one after the other, and Yu Yan quickly put aside those distracting thoughts.

So many, so many, so many books!

She was so excited that her eyes lit up, she stopped in front of this stall, went to stand in front of the stall again, flipped through this book, liked it, flipped through that book, and wanted to buy it again!

It's a pity that she was temporarily pulled out today, and she didn't have a penny on her!

She looked at him quietly, did he bring any money?

Hey, forget it, last time I ate a bowl of noodles, he also asked her to pay, but I'm afraid that I will have to take hairpins, rings, and earrings to change today!

She touched her earrings, thinking that she could exchange a few copies, and touched the gemstone ring, and finally touched the pair of jade bracelets given by Su Lanqi, which must be able to be exchanged for a lot! She immediately pursed her lips and smiled, turning her head to the book she had been looking at.

Yu Lixiao watched her touch her ears and hands all the way, frowning, and saw her suddenly take off the bracelet, only to understand what was going on.

Slowly following her, I saw that she was picking out the book she was looking at, and then handed over the bracelet.

"Ah, girl, we don't accept jewelry." The stall owner hesitated, refusing to accept the blue bracelet.

"It's a good thing, and it can be used as a lot of money." Yu Yan patiently explained to him.

"No, it's too troublesome, what if the pawnshop doesn't accept it, or if this thing is fake? Girl, we have a small business, go to Beijing to take the exam, bring some books to exchange for a little money, don't be embarrassed by the girl, go to other stalls to have a look. Unmoved, the stall owner persuaded her to go away.

Yu Yan was a little disappointed, touched the book, and turned her head to look at Yu Lixiao.

Well, he stood two steps beside him and didn't look at her at all!

Forget it, he's not going to help! Yu Yan endured the itching heart, reluctantly let go of the book in hand, and wrote down the name again, preparing to let Nian En come to buy it tomorrow.

"Sir, you must keep it for me, and you will definitely come to pick it up tomorrow." She told her repeatedly, and then she walked forward step by step, which were really two good books, one was a folk anecdote, and the other was an introduction to flowers, plants, insects and beasts.

The things she likes to read are also special, and Yu Lixiao glanced at the name of the book and continued to walk forward.

Yu Yan didn't take a few steps, and took another step, this time her feet were like nails, and she wanted to buy it immediately, with this book, there will be a lot of fun at night! I can't wait to find a place to read the book in my hand.

"Master, do you have any silver? Borrow something and use it. She finally spoke to him.

"Nope." Yu Lixiao raised his eyebrows and said lightly.

"What are you here for?" Yu Yan was a little angry, could it be that she knew that she loved books, so she brought her to be tortured?

"Find people, talk about things." He said in a deep voice, his gaze fixed on one place.

Yu Yan raised her eyes and saw that Su Lanqi was hanging there, and she was suddenly overjoyed, and she ignored Yu Lixiao, and ran over there.

Yu Lixiao twisted his eyebrows, Yu Yan had flexibly squeezed through the crowd and moved closer to Shu Lanqi.

The people in the book market say too much and say a lot less, which is enough to separate the two from a distance. Yu Lixiao couldn't hold her anymore and made a fuss, so he could only watch her arrive in front of Shu Lanqi.

"King Qi." Yu Yan called him and was immediately dumbfounded again. She came out with Yu Lixiao! How do you tell Shu Lanqi that the dart master is a dart master? She actually went to the book market with a man!

"Hmm......" Shu Lanqi's shining peach blossom eyes fell on her face, smiled, and asked in a low voice: "How can the girl recognize me?" ”

"I recognized the wrong person, I thought you were Qi Wang!" Yu Yan hurriedly turned around, her heart beating like a small drum.

Shu Lanqi's eyes lit up, and the folding fan in her hand patted her shoulder gently, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be you." ”

Yu Yan turned her head, met his gaze, and saw the word excitement in his eyes!

"Miss Yuyan." He patted her handkerchief with his fan and looked behind her, "Are you alone?" ”

"Hmm." Yu Yan turned her head and took a look, Yu Lixiao was no longer there, and she probably had found a place to hide.

"That's right, Xiao Wang is also a person. The girl came to see the book? Shu Lanqi's eyes brightened and asked her enthusiastically.

"Well, is there any silver? Borrow a little, and you will pay it back tomorrow. Yu Yan simply borrowed money from him.

"Oh, Miss Yuyan wants to buy something, why borrow words? What you like, Xiao Wang will send you. ”

So generous...... What a stingy ghost! Seeing that the matter had come to this, Yu Yan simply took him to the bookstall and pointed out all the books to buy.

Shu Lanqi is really a rich man, as soon as he throws his hand, it is a piece of gold, and he said quite generously: "Don't look for it, she can take any book she likes at any time." ”

The stall owner held the gold and smiled. Seeing this, Yu Yan simply chose a thick one, tied it with a rope, and walked away.

"Xiao Wang will help the girl hold it." Su Lanqi's fan tapped on her wrist, and her fingers hooked the book into her palm without knowing how to hook it.

[There is a big change on Tuesday...... Hold on, little herring ......]
