Jin Yi sat on the warm kang, holding the enamel kang table in her hand, quietly distracted.

In what Yi Rui said today, Xu's words lingered in her heart. If it weren't for Xu's words that day, Jiang would not have died, and Jinyi would not have been sent to Shangxiutang......

The Yekang tribute was robbed, and the plague was raging...... The wind in the court and the emperor's attitude are full of suspicion, Yekang destroyed the country, and the Yekang women in the family were affected one after another, but the queen and the prince were still as stable as Mount Tai.

If there is a queen to maintain Yekang, the Huajing Dynasty will not sit idly by and watch the countries of the Western Regions annex the land of Yekang.

Jin Yi let out a breath, her fingers gently rubbing her eyebrows.

A gentle sound of a gentle flute came into her ears, causing her to listen sideways.

Jin Yi was a little stunned, and her thoughts drifted to Shu, which was thousands of miles away. I have lived in Mei for three years, and I have seen Xiaolou three times.

Each time, the sound of his flute will be heard.

Every autumn, he would go to Meiju to meet Mr. Ji, stay for a day or two, and then leave. I don't know much about him. Master Mr. Ji doesn't often talk about him, but he knows that he is the same as himself, and he is a member of Mr. Ji's family.

In fact, Mr. Ji never let them call themselves masters in person, but just taught them carefully like juniors.

Ji Shuxuan is a strange person who is hidden in the world, Wen Tao is martial, full of economy, but he is extremely low-key and silent.

It was he who founded the Ngai Sin Church. On the bright side, she gave rice porridge, relieved orphans, raised funds from the Xungui family to do good deeds, and had a very good relationship with the family. Secretly, he selects the most talented from among the orphans and teaches them martial arts and killing skills, or the way of doing business and gathering wealth, which is called the Xuanzhi.

The families of the powerful are proud to seek to be used as guards or stewards of the house. But there are actually very few nobles who know and can afford to use the mysteries. It is said that the hidden guards around the emperor are martial arts taught by the mysterious, all of whom are people who block a hundred, split the tiger with their bare hands, and have treacherous methods.

In the past three years, Jin Yi has followed Mr. Ji every day to study the ...... "Tongjian", "Anti-Shu" and "Tao Hui Shu". At first, she didn't understand that she was just a woman, so what was the use of learning this? Is it possible to disguise herself as a man and enter the court as an official?

Mr. Ji said, "The art of scheming can predict the destiny of heaven at the highest level, and secondly, it can also measure people's hearts." What you have to learn is not a strategy for the country, but just a strategy for the heart. ”

Jin Yi nodded as if she didn't understand, and didn't ask any more.

In addition to reading, I also practice some small kung fu in the body. After all, she is just a woman, and her strength is beyond her strength, and she doesn't want to go into battle to kill the enemy, and besides, there is not much time, so it is impossible to be like those who have practiced for more than ten years since childhood. I only learned some light body kung fu and small grappling skills, which can be enough to defend oneself or two.

The sound of the flute is flickering far and near at this time, and the tune seems to have the meaning of urging.

Jin suddenly came back to his senses.

At this time, even Qiaowei heard the sound of the flute. She listened attentively for a long time, and said to Jin Yi with a chuckle: "It's Xiaolou Gongzi who is here, right?" ”

As she spoke, she stepped forward to support Jinyi's shoulders and said with comfort, "You can't always avoid him, let's go out and have a look." ”

The sound of the flute gradually faded away, but the tune was clear, it was a song "Going on the Stream":

"The wind turns the lotus leaves white, and the rain wets the knotweed flowers and turns red. I envy the midnight wave of passengers, and return to the dream fishing boat for a while. The sound of the flute is illusory, mixed with the murmuring of the Qingxi River in the distance.

Qiao Wei smiled: "I'm afraid I invite you to visit the lake tonight." Whether you go or not, it's not good to say a word and make others wait for them in the cold night. ”

Jin Yi glanced at her, her cheeks flushed, and she scolded, "Dead girl." ”

Walk into the room and get ready to change.

Qiao Wei followed behind her and said, "Our Yunxiu Pavilion is further west, and we will go out of the house, and there is Qingxi outside." Today I took a look, the trees are tall and dense along the way, you take the dragon claw with you, don't go to the courtyard gate, Mama Fang is old and sleeps lightly. ”

As he spoke, he helped her change into a dress that was easy to walk up.

Jin Yi smiled at her while changing her clothes, "I think you are suitable to be a thief." ”

The narrow brocade jacket in red sandalwood, the cuffs are not as wide and flowing as ordinary clothes, and they are cut to fit perfectly. The lower body is a blue skirt, which looks like a skirt, but it is actually cut into two sides, which is convenient for flexible movements. Qingsi tightly lifted it with a black gold hairpin.

This makeup made her jade cheeks even whiter, and the flush on her cheeks spread, lining her eyes purple.

Jin Yi pursed her lips and lowered her head to put a lapis and tourmaline flat bracelet on her right wrist. This bracelet, also known as the Ruyi bracelet, was carefully crafted by Qiao Wei for a year. On the surface, it is just an ordinary lapis bracelet, but there are small mechanisms inside. Open the bracket to tighten the wrist, the width is three inches, and the tourmaline flower on the bracelet is flipped into a quenching crystal needle, which can be attacked and defended.

Qiao Wei carefully adjusted the bracket on the Ruyi bracelet for her. and put a small dragon claw on her left wrist, which is a necessary thing for flying eaves and walls.

In the end, she was draped in a black brocade.

Packing up, Qiao Wei put away her smile and said solemnly: "Miss, you have to be careful." This capital is not as good as Shuzhong, and there are many masters. You don't have to go far, in case you can't find the little building, it's good to come back quickly. ”

Jin Yi was also a little nervous in her heart, and after listening to her words, she smiled a little unnaturally, "Don't worry." ”

Qiao Wei opened the window gently, outside the back window of their inner room, there was a corridor to the back cover room, and the other maids and women and other people all lived in the front yard, and the back cover room was now just vacant, empty in the quiet night.

Jin Yi took a deep breath, and her petite body jumped out of the window lightly.

When she came to the corridor, she ran a few steps lightly, and the dragon claw in her hand silently shot out black hook claws, which were wrapped in thick leather, and did not make a sound when they were embedded in the wall.

Jin Yi jumped out of the courtyard and stopped on a green cypress tree with lush foliage, listening to the sound of the flute.

Xiao Sheng whimpered a little, and the direction was by the green stream outside the courtyard.

Jin Yi stood on the tree and looked down for a moment, the winter night was silent, only the wind blew the pine and cypress like a murmur.

Tonight's moon is the last quarter moon, and the silver moon is like a hook, sometimes obscured by clouds. Jin Yi remembered that she had teased Qiaowei for being a thief before, and when she looked at her current outfit, she really looked like a thief, and she couldn't help but laugh a little.

She fell silently to the ground, through the woods, and through the dragon's claws, she broke out of the wall of the mansion more than two feet high. Then they went to the woods outside the house.

The sound of the flute suddenly became much clearer. She followed the sound of the flute and looked far away, and through the layers of trees, she vaguely saw a pleasure boat parked on the bank of the Qingxi River in front of her.

Jin Yi cautiously and slowly walked through the woods.

At a glance, I could see the figure on the bow of the ship.

Sima Yulou put down the jade flute on his lips, smiled with his eyes, and quietly looked at Jinyi at the edge of the forest.
