Stepping out of the hospital, Chen Yichen took a deep breath, since coming here, it seemed that it was the first time to go out.

Walk through the long alleys and the bustling streets. The buying and selling, so lively, reminded him of the first time he went to Liuhua Town. What I saw at the time was full of novelty, but now I am numb to it. In the past, Dr. Zhang and Li Wanwan were gone.

Every time I think of this, my heart is filled with sourness. If he hadn't left Lingshou Village that day, it would have been great, none of this would have happened. Today is also a day of great joy with Wanwan.

I miss everything in Lingshou Village very much. If he can't return home, it's not that he doesn't want to, but he has no shame to go back. At least until he didn't have the enemy in his hands, he didn't dare to go back.

Over the past few days, Chen Yichen has gradually believed in reality, learned to face reality, and looked at the jade hosta countless times, as if he was in another world.

"Stinky beggar, don't die, look for death. ”

The sound of angry reprimands from behind him interrupted his thoughts, and he was about to turn around, when he felt that someone had pushed him in the back, and he stumbled under his feet, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Stinky food, don't die, stand in the middle of the road, get away. ”

Chen Yichen looked back, there was a carriage parked behind him, and in front of the car stood a big man, his raised hand pointing at him.

He knew that he was blocking the way of others, and he had nothing to say, but why did he say that he was a stinky person who begged for food? Chen Yichen was puzzled, and the carriage and the big man had already left.

"Ding. When the long is the long. The two copper plates fell to the ground, made a crisp impact sound, rolled a few times, and stopped in front of Chen Yichen.

"Hey, little Hanako, hurry up, don't get in the way of my door, delay my business. ”

Chen Yichen looked for prestige, and there was a bloated middle-aged man standing next to him, dressed gorgeously, and he could be regarded as a rich man. just looked at Chen Yichen with a displeased face, and the arm that leaned out was being retracted.

"Why are you still stunned, don't stand in the way in front of my store, take the money and leave quickly. Seeing Chen Yichen stunned motionlessly, he continued: "Hehe, what's the matter, it's too little." ”

Glancing at the two copper plates, Chen Yichen slowly stood up and said, "Why do you say that I am called Hanako?"

"Huh?" The shopkeeper was stunned for two seconds and laughed: "Haha, your name is not Hanako, is it possible that I am." ”

The shopkeeper's words caused the crowd to laugh, and people kept pointing at Chen Yichen, so the shopkeeper continued: "Don't look at your dress, if it's not called Hanako, then tell me, which son-in-law are you?"

The shopkeeper's words drew another burst of laughter from the crowd.

Chen Yichen looked down at the clothes on his body, they were indeed dirty, and he had never changed his clothes, let alone taken a shower. Suddenly ashamed, I felt that my face was hot and hot, and I was suffocated.

I couldn't find a crack in the ground to get into, and I turned around to escape the crowd, and I hit my head on the onlooker's chest in a hurry.

"Wait a minute. The person who was hit reached out to block Chen Yichen's way and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve. On the paper was a portrait, I looked at it in contrast, and said to the people around me, "Big brother, it's a bit like." ”

"I've met more than a dozen of them, and not one of them. The person known as the eldest brother glanced at Chen Yichen and said, "Little brother is Chen Yichen." ”

"Yes......"

Before Chen Yichen finished speaking, he heard the person holding the portrait say, "Let's go, it's not." ”

The two of them turned around at the same time and stopped abruptly, and they heard someone exclaim, "Big brother, he said yes." ”

"Brother, are you Chen Yichen?" The person known as the eldest brother stared at Chen Yichen with round eyes.

"Who are you?" Chen Yichen saw the reaction of the two, and suddenly tightened, could it be that they were Xiao Mingxu's people.

"Brother, we have found him. I saw his excited hand tugging on Chen Yichen's shoulders and said, "Little brother can my son-in-law get acquainted?"

"My son Xiao, Xiao Zichen. The man next to him was afraid that he didn't know who his son-in-law was, so he hurriedly reported his name.

"Xiao Zichen is your son-in-law?" Chen Yichen saw that the two of them nodded like chickens pecking rice, and sighed in his heart, and his hanging heart temporarily eased up, and said, "Yes." ”

"yes, I found it, I found it. The two of them almost cried with joy, their excitement was beyond words, one of them had one arm, and they dragged Chen Yichen tightly, as if they were afraid that he would run away.

"What are you doing here?" was confused by the two of them, and was carried into the teahouse by the two of them without knowing it.

"Little two, private room, tea, good tea. Located in the private room, I heard one of them say: "My son-in-law specially ordered the two of us to wait for Chen Shaoxia here, and it has been a month, so we can be regarded as looking forward to it." ”

"Yes, if we can't find you, we'll lose our errands. ”

"Hey, go and inform Childe, just say that someone has found it. ”

"Yes, yes, I'll go right away, big brother, you have to watch people. ”

"Yo, two guests, this is a gift from the shop. The shopkeeper walked into the private room with a smile on his face, motioned for Xiao Er to put the pastries on the table, nodded and said, "This son, I was offended a lot just now, and I hope that Gongzi Haihan." ”

"Oh, nothing. Chen Yichen saw that the shopkeeper was the one who had just ridiculed him, and he couldn't blame him, and he could only blame himself for his shabby clothes.

"It's really blind to your dog's eyes, and you dare to ridicule Chen Gongzi. Xiao Zichen's servant slapped the table and was about to reprimand, but was stopped by Chen Yichen.

"Forget it, forget it. He is no wonder about this. ”

"Yes, the little one is really blind, and he didn't even recognize Chen Gongzi. "The shopkeeper kept saying good things, and as early as a month ago, he had already seen Chen Yichen's portrait. Even if you break your head, you won't think that it's the person in front of you.

"Alright, you go down first. Xiao Zichen's servant waved his hand, and seeing that Chen Yichen didn't mean to blame the shopkeeper, he asked him to step back.

Turning to come out, the shopkeeper wiped the cold sweat from his head. I really don't know who this little Hanako is, but Xiao Zichen has seen it many times, although he doesn't know which powerful son, he doesn't dare to offend.

After a stick of incense, there was a sound of footsteps at the top of the stairs, and then someone was heard: "Where are the people?" ”

With a "squeak", the door of the private room was pushed open, Xiao Zichen's eyes quickly scanned around, and finally fixed on Chen Yichen's face, and he took a few steps under his feet and came to the front.

"Brother Chen, it's really you. You, how are you like this. Xiao Zichen looked at him in disbelief, and after careful identification, he confirmed that it was him.

"It's hard to put into words. Chen Yichen smiled awkwardly, seeing that he was dressed brightly, if they met him on the street, Chen Yichen would not dare to recognize him.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Zichen's eyes glanced around again, but he didn't find any trace of Li Wanwan, and a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes that no one noticed.

"I haven't seen her since that night. Chen Yichen's face welled up with a look of pain, and his heart was also aching.

"What did you say?" Xiao Zichen's eyes widened, looking at Chen Yichen in disbelief, and the anger on his face made Chen Yichen feel surprised.

"How abominable are they. Xiao Zichen's fist slammed on the table, causing ripples in the water in the teacup.

"Brother Zichen, are you okay?" Xiao Zichen's overreaction really startled Chen Yichen.

"Go down first, and no one will be allowed to come in." Xiao Zichen waved his hand to the two, and after watching them go out, Xiao Zichen sat down with a sinking face.

"Brother Zichen, you weren't chased and killed by them. As soon as Chen Yichen spoke, he regretted it a little, and asked knowingly. People sit in front of them in a dignified manner, how can they be hunted down.

"Nope. Xiao Zichen shook his head helplessly and said, "No one chased me that night. I really regret that I didn't fight against you now, and if we tried our best to stop each other at that time, maybe there would still be a chance of survival. ”

He hadn't thought about it, but everything had already happened. If I had turned back the clock, I would not have made this choice even if I had died on the spot.

"Brother Yi, where have you been for so long? Didn't you and I agree to come to a teahouse in three days? Did you also encounter an accident?" Xiao Zichen's brows were twisted into a line, and he looked like a beggar.

How did he know that during this time, Chen Yichen was mixed with beggars. However, Chen Yichen didn't want to say much about all this, but said perfunctorily: "I am a little unfamiliar with Kyoto when I first came to Kyoto, and I was delayed for some time on the road, and I was entangled in some trivial matters. ”

"Oh, I see. Xiao Zichen nodded thoughtfully and said, "Brother Yichen needs my help, if there is any difficulty, you and my brother can just speak up." ”

"No, thank you, Brother Zichen. After thinking about it, Chen Yi decided not to tell him the news of the search for Xiao Mingxu, after all, this matter involved the royal family.

Although he knew that if this matter was entrusted to Xiao Zichen, it would definitely get twice the result with half the effort, but Chen Yichen remembered. Xiao Zichen once said that his father had a certain amount of power, and even he had met the emperor, so he must have known Xiao Mingxu, and no one could guarantee that he would not expose his traces in front of Xiao Mingxu, if this is the case, I am afraid it will be a futile effort.

"That's right, Brother Chen. Xiao Zichen lowered his voice and said, "I remember that the person who was going to kill you that night was the third prince, the person sent by Xiao Mingxu, right?"

Chen Yichen was shocked in his heart, and said secretly: I was really afraid of something, I almost forgot, the person who was going to kill him that night said in person that he was instructed by the third prince, and it seems that he can't hide it if he wants to.

"Yes? I think I've heard them say it. Brother Zichen, do you know Xiao Mingxu?"

"I can't hide it, I've seen it a few times, and I didn't expect him to send someone to kill you. Xiao Zichen said slowly: "After I returned to Kyoto, I secretly investigated and found a shocking secret. ”

"What earth-shattering secret?" Hearing the news about Xiao Mingxu, Chen Yichen suddenly became solemn.

"Brother Chen, you have given me a life-saving grace, Xiao always remembers it. Xiao Zichen's expression was solemn, he hugged Chen Yichen and said, "There is one thing, I hope Brother Chen will tell you the truth." ”

"What's the matter?" Chen Yichen, no matter how stupid he was, could still hear the meaning of his words, and made it clear that he was making a stand and standing with himself, but the truth or falsehood was not yet known.

Chen Yichen vaguely felt that this matter must be related to Xiao Mingxu, and the only thing he could have to do with him was the sneak attack news from the Mocheng Inn.

"When he was in Mocheng, Brother Yi Chen went to the General's Mansion alone, whether it was related to the third prince Xiao Mingxu. ”

Sure enough, what Xiao Zichen wanted to ask was exactly what he thought in his heart. Since he said that he had discovered Xiao Mingxu's shocking secret, I am afraid that this is what he said, and there is no need to hide it.

Thinking of this, Chen Yichen said slowly: "Yes, it is indeed related to the third prince Xiao Mingxu. ”

And so it was. ”
