(961), will be the heart

- When Ruan Luo took out the silver ticket that imitated the Yan family, a trace of worry in his eyes did not escape Wang Chi's observation, and at this moment, while appreciating Ruan Luo, he realized this, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

It is not that the emperor who is high above will not look at the faces of others, and even the person who is the emperor will be more sensitive and sensitive, but at the same time, this kind of person has learned to cultivate the king's spirit, recognize the overall situation, and will not dwell too much on some small things.

However, this wisp of softness in Ruan Luo's heart involves another problem, so Wang Chi often thinks about how to arrange it properly.

He still prefers that Ruan Luo can inherit his father's business, instead of being a businessman all the time.

There is no shortage of business candidates in the land of Nanzhao, but there is still a shortage of talents in the court of Nanzhao. Since the founding of the dynasty, Wang Chi has been grasping the recovery of the society with one hand, and holding the group of remnants of the old dynasty with the other. He had already decided that when the frontier was stable and the treasury was accumulated, he would really start purging the government and the opposition, carry out a major purge of the old ministers, and scrape a batch of carrion left over from the old dynasty.

At that time, the talent gap in the court will be even wider.

Although he had been preparing a supply source for this gap more than ten years ago, there was a key position in his heart that he had always wanted to leave to Ruan Luo...... Maybe this is a special shortage to repay Ruan's father's merits, but it is more for the purpose of supplying him for the purpose of being a meritocracy.

However, this child doesn't seem to want to be an official at all, so he faintly maintains a sense of distance from himself.

Wang Chi had already added a title to Ruan Chenggang, taking care of Ruan Chenggang's last words, and this title was designated as hereditary. However, it was when this reputation was set that Ruan Luo went to northern Xinjiang and traveled to Xiaoliang Kingdom. and stayed there for a few years, and the inheritance of his father has been put on hold.

He finally returned to China, but soon after he became seriously ill. went to another county for recuperation, and the matter was put on hold.

Three years ago he returned to Kyoto again. This was his third chance to inherit his father's title, but at this time, Wang Chi put the matter on hold.

The reason for this change of mind is only because Wang Chi, who has been years old, has realized that what Ruan Luo wants is not this, and even in fact he is still a little disgusted with this. For Ruan Chenggang's only child, if he can, of course Wang Chi wants to give him the things he needs and likes the most, but if he gives it himself, not only can't. It will cause trouble, and he will have to reconsider.

But what does this child like and what does he need?

After observing for a few years, Wang Chi couldn't come up with a reason, but noticed some things that he was deliberately avoiding.

For example, alienating the royal court, alienating the royal family.

Even Wang Zhe, who was closest to him, seems to have been influenced by him now, and has become a character who likes to wander around and doesn't like to go back to the palace to live.

Ruan Luo is not envious of being an official, and intends to avoid power. Even now, he is concentrating on the business he is doing, but he is only concentrating on the business itself, and the business house he runs is not only paying taxes normally. Most of the remainder of the proceeds, after retaining the principal at risk, goes directly into the second district of the treasury.

The accumulation in the second district of the treasury was directly allocated by the emperor, and most of the accounts were kept secret, and Ruan Luo did this, which was almost equivalent to directly giving the silver to the emperor of the current dynasty for free.

If it weren't for an incident that happened in Dongfeng Tower a month ago, Wang Chi might have been so confused about Ruan Luo's thoughts.

However, a month ago, when Yan Yu, the third oldest among the sons of the Yan family, tore off the silver ticket that only circulated within the Yan family in Dongfeng Tower. Wang Chi suddenly had an idea. This idea may be able to kill two birds with one stone, and prepare a way back for a certain problem that Lin Shan has been questioning. You can completely test Ruan Luo's mind again.

Ruan Luo is not in good health, and is not suitable for battlefield training like his father. But a good knife must withstand knocking if it wants to be opened, and Wang Chi is ready to use such a bloodless battle as he is planning now to knock Ruan Luo's heart into a blow. From ability to determination, whether he has the qualifications to assume that important position in the future of the empire will be seen in this test.

After putting away the Tibetan secret letter, Wang Chi looked at Ruan Luo and said slowly: "Were you thinking just now, why did I do these things? ”

Ruan Luo was slightly stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Wang Chi to suddenly take the initiative to mention this matter, and he could see that he would mention this sentence because he had already seen something from his expression just now.

After being silent for a moment, Ruan Luo didn't avoid anything, and only answered bluntly: "Yes." ”

Wang Chi was originally going to ask Ruan Luo if he was worried about it because he had a good personal relationship with the Yan family. In the early years, Ruan Luo went to Liang Guo to study alone at an immature age, and the help and assistance of the Yan family can be described as a great debt of kindness to him, which Wang Chi also knows.

However, these words turned in his heart several times, and finally he did not really say them.

When he spoke again, Wang Chi was equivalent to giving Ruan Luo a reassurance: "Don't worry, I don't want to do anything to the Yan family." ”

Hearing him say such a promise, Ruan Luo was really a little relieved in his heart, but at the same time, he felt quite incomprehensible, because Wang Chi arranged for someone to imitate the Yan family's silver ticket, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a well-intentioned act.

After Wang Chi's promise, there was really half a sentence that had not been finished. After a moment's pause, he continued, "But there is one thing at the moment that makes me have to build an embankment. But as long as the family doesn't really do what I fear, the embankment is almost empty and doesn't hurt the innocent. As long as the Yan family is a businessman, we will not disturb each other. Do you understand my struggle? ”

"The state affairs are in danger, and the younger generations understand." Ruan Luo's eyes drooped slightly, although he knew that it was related to the special nature of this topic, and he had to reply rigorously at the moment, he still couldn't help but ask again: "I don't know what this makes my uncle have scruples?" ”

Wang Chi will come to this Ruan Luo's territory outside the palace today, the original purpose is to discuss this matter with him. And Wang Chi was still a little uncertain at first that Ruan Luo might refuse, so he had to make a special exception to choose such a negotiation place in other places, which more or less pulled down his own frame and emphasized sincerity. However, as soon as Ruan Luo opened his mouth like this at this time, it seemed that this matter could be settled immediately.

Wang Chi smiled slightly and said, "Although I have the intention to make Nanzhao Commercial Bank bloom all over the place. But I have to admit that I am not an expert in this industry, so there are some things that I have to find someone to do for me. ”

At this time, Ruan Luo could already feel a problem. The pupils suddenly shrank, and instantly returned to nature.

Wang Chi called. Immediately, a royal guard stepped in from outside the door. This guard was obviously instructed to arrange before leaving the palace with His Majesty, and when he entered the study, he didn't say anything, he directly pulled out a scroll from his tight sleeve, handed it to Wang Chi with respectful hands, and then quickly turned around and went out, closed the door of the study with his hand, and continued to stand quietly on the side.

The first time I saw this scene. Ruan Luo thought that Wang Chi was going to issue a secret decree in person, and was about to make another big gift to receive the decree, but Wang Chi raised his hand to signal, and then just asked him to vacate the desk.

After all the things on the table were removed and placed in a corner of the bookshelf, Wang Chi put down the scroll in his hand at one end of the desk, pulled out the filament rope that was tied to the waist of the shaft, and pushed the scroll away with a flick of his fingers.

This scroll is much longer than the yellow silk decree framed material, and can be spread from one end of the desk to the other. The long scrolls are painted with patterns, but they are not a whole. Instead, it is divided into four sections. Most of the four patterns are composed of very simple lines of fine brushwork, but when these lines tend to be straight and stacked vertically and horizontally, they can be seen at a glance. And it will feel extremely complicated.

"You and the Yan family are considered peers, and they are also peers who have already had several cooperation experiences." Wang Chi's face was still smiling, "There are many common words among peers, and there have been colleagues who have cooperated, everything is easy to discuss, and it is easy to find out the entry point if there is anything." What's more, you are close to the Yan family, and it is less likely for him to suspect that you represent my eyes. ”

Listen to Wang Chi talk about the latter sentence. Ruan Luo couldn't help but remind: "The head of the Yan family knew who my father was a long time ago, if I approached them too quickly. I'm afraid they'll soon shift their suspicions to you, uncle. ”

"You don't have to worry too much about that, of course I'll put it up first. and paralyze them for a while. You have to believe that what I threw out this time is a double-edged sword, if they are just businessmen, then it is safe to take it. If not, and they are so savvy that they will pay the price for whatever they plan to do. The smile on Wang Chi's face gradually sank, "Speaking of the things they found out about your father when they checked the family tree, don't they like to check the accounts?" Find a suitable time, and I'll settle the account with them. ”

Ruan Luo's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this.

Having said that, since Cheng DΓΉ had said this, Wang Chi's true intention of coming to the door today had already surfaced, and what surprised Ruan Luo the most was that he didn't expect that what he had tried so hard to avoid just a month ago still fell on him.

Moreover, this time the person he was facing was the Nanzhao Monarch, and no matter what, he could no longer find a suitable and powerful reason to refuse.

The trick of pretending to be sick is no longer difficult to use, not to mention that his body has been recuperated in the past two years and has been stronger than before, I don't know how many times before, at the end of the year, even the wind and cold and minor illnesses are gone, only to say that the last time he used this trick, he still asked the few Langzhong he knew to cooperate well, but this kind of play will definitely not work in front of the emperor who controls the entire country.

Well, this errand was taken over.

Ruan Luo was silent for only a moment before deciding on his choice.

If the Yan family itself is stable, it is equivalent to running a long business. And this kind of thing is not uncommon in business activities, even if the people of the Yan family see that they have left Kyoto and appeared in a different place, it is really rare to find doubts, and they can make excuses for business affairs.

It's just that......

Just when Ruan Luo was about to make up his mind and prepare to announce his order, he suddenly saw something familiar from the extra-long scroll on the table with strange brushwork, and at this moment, a new question popped up in his heart.

This line map of the long axis depicts the topography of the Daqingchuan River Basin.

A few years ago, when Ruan Luo was still recuperating in Bo County, in order to take care of him at any time, Wang Zhe accompanied him to live in a courtyard.

In those quiet but also boring days, Wang Zhe's biggest hobby was not only to eat all the wild game in the mountains and fields of Bo County, but also to study geography, and in the past three years, he has collected several large bundles of geography books in his study. Although Ruan Luo was not very interested in this knowledge, these books were piled up in front of him, and three years were a long time, and of course he inevitably read a few of them.

Since then. One place that Wang Zhe often hangs on his lips is the Daqingchuan River Basin.

It wasn't that he would go there on his next leg of his travels, he was just worried about his emperor's father, and he was always thinking about bringing that place into Nanzhao's territory as soon as possible.

As soon as I have time, I will think about this time. Not because Wang Zhe was a warlike man, but because there was a group of barbarians living in that place. Doing some evil things every day, robbing homes and slaughtering innocent people can really be described as an evil force that harms one side. Even ordinary people, after hearing the tragedy from that place, they were eager to wave a kitchen knife to punish the culprit.

After the strange natural disappearance of the Sichuan garrison, there was no longer the power to suppress it, and the group of barbarians actually began to prepare for the local emperor. If that evil sore is not exposed, Daqingchuan, a great river rich in fresh water, will probably not be able to benefit the people in the future, and no one will dare or want to go to that place to cultivate and live.

Wang Zhe is the son of the royal clan, regardless of whether he will be elected as the prince in the future until he ascends the throne. He has the qualifications and the obligation to take care of this matter.

Ruan Luo, as a good friend of Wang Zhe, also considered that the area around Daqingchuan was too peaceful, and whether other merchants wanted to do it or not, he would be the first to do so, and he would do his best to string the business routes there. Even if this is done, it may cause the trading houses he presided over to experience a relatively long period of loss, then he will do his best to make the circulation of materials over there lively.

At present, I am afraid that only he can imagine such a foolish approach, and he has really seriously considered implementing it.

Even a big businessman like the Yan family would not allow foreseeable losses to occur in business matters. Businessmen seem to have this common problem, the more money they make, the tighter the money bag will be.

So even if the Yan family has dedication. It is also impossible to extend the business route to the Daqingchuan River basin now, where people do not do business, they will only "grab" this trick.

Ruan Luo, who was standing in front of the desk, looked at the scroll spread out on the table, and then looked up at Emperor Wang Chi of Nanzhao, who was also looking at him at this time, but the meaning was subtle, he had already sensed that there were obvious doubts in this matter, but he couldn't figure out the plan of the emperor standing across the table, so he just fixed his eyes and didn't speak.

Wang Chi could vaguely recognize Ruan Luo's change in love, and he had an estimate in his heart. A smile gradually appeared on his face, and he said slowly, "Isn't it strange?" Why did the Yan family suddenly add this business line, and why do I have such a clear grasp of this business line? ”

Ruan Luo couldn't help but say, "Could it be that the Yan family followed your wishes?" ”

Although he was a little anxious to know the answer. But in fact, when he said this, the speed of his speech naturally became extremely slow, because even he himself was a little incredulous about his inference, even if Wang Chi had always had the intention of soliciting the Yan family on his face.

The Yan family did business in the land of Sanzhou, and although they cooperated well with the Wang court, the foundation of the Yan family was still in Xiaoliang after all. No matter how huge the family business is, the assets of the branch have even surpassed the headquarters, but the Yan family's general account office is still standing in the capital of Xiaoliang Kingdom. This illustrates a problem and expresses a silent but determined attitude of the strongest family in the business world.

The Yan family is also sincere and stable in guarding Xiao Liang State, so they will always put their key institutions in Liang Realm and under the noses of the Liang Kingdom royal family.

――Even if the Yan family has always done nothing wrong with the affairs of the court, it always seems that there is some deliberateness in doing so.

However, once this balance is tilted, even if it is only suspected to be tilted, the Yan family's "dependence" on Xiao Liang Guo is likely to be subverted in an instant into putting their neck close to the edge of the supreme imperial power.

Although Xiaoliang is small, it has grown into a country with a mature system, and if you are a citizen of this country for a day, you will be presumptuous.

Even if the Yan family wants to be presumptuous, they should prepare their retreat first, at least the first condition is that they must first move their neck away from the edge of the blade, and then act, which is in line with common sense. Why doesn't a businessman calculate the stakes?

Could it be because the Yan family was determined to fall the banner to Nanzhao, and because they were firmly leaning on a new big tree, they would have no fear in front of Xiao Liang Guo and act so arrogantly?

No, this is obviously not in line with the temper of the Yan family, those old backbones of the Yan family association have gone through so many years of ups and downs, but they have not survived in vain.

Ruan Luo had all kinds of clues in his heart at this time, and all of them were covered with a questioning light gray color. At this time, Wang Chi's mood was also a little floating. Because of the question Ruan Luo asked, at this moment today, he finally decided to say it to this junior who he valued cultivation very much.

"It's not all followed, to be precise. It's a risky collaboration. Wang Chi spoke slowly, and the smile on his face gradually faded. Before today, only two people knew about it, and they were all as skeptical as you are today. ”

The questioning look on Ruan Luo's face turned into surprise.

"It's precisely because my two most trusted friends put on that kind of face that I can't help but be a little skeptical." Wang Chi put away his hands propped up on the edge of the table, his right hand to the left and his left hand to the right and leaned into his sleeve, the image looked too far away from the dignified and dignified emperor, and he looked more like an elder in a big family who was making a difficult decision about a matter or not. "I came to you today, I said this, and I felt a little lost when I saw you like this again, but ...... It's more that I think I'm here right. ”

……

After handing over the VIP invitation card and drinking a cup of precious spring tips before the rain, Mo Ye, who came out of the Lu family, was in a good mood. Because she went to Lu's house just now to deliver the post, it happened that the head of the Yue family was also there, and made it clear that there was no one at home, so she didn't have to go to the Yue family again. Just at the Lu family, the two posts were handed over together, saving a lot of work.

In this way, the afternoon was a little tight. Walking with both hands on a spacious street in Kyoto that had just been renovated, Mo Ye's mind soon resurfaced the questions he had thought about when he had just left the Yu family teahouse at noon.

Gently patting her forehead, Mo Ye temporarily suppressed the intricate thoughts in her mind, because she felt that those chaotic and trivial thoughts could only be used to achieve results with practical actions in the final analysis.

And if you plan to put these questionable questions on the agenda, whether it is looking for someone in Kyoto, or looking for someone outside Beijing on the pretext of traveling far away from Beijing. It depends on the situation, and everything is not in a hurry.

However, Ruan Luo's coronation ceremony is just around the corner, so let's pay more attention to this matter! At least get it done first. His plan to travel far away from Beijing was brought to the table to discuss with Ruan Luo.

The mind has a plan, and the distracting thoughts are self-clearing.

There was not much deliberation. Mo Ye chose the next step to find Ruan Luo, he has been busy delivering posts in the past few days, and he has no time to follow him too closely, I wonder if he has returned to the kind of life he used to have locked himself in the study every day for a certain period of time in the past two days?

The Lu family was not too far from the bookstore where Ruan Luo usually stayed during the day, and the distance in between took less than a quarter of an hour. However, when Mo Ye's eyes could reach the door of the bookstore, she saw a scene that made her feel a little strange.

Since when did Ruan Luo's two close bodyguards change their positions to two gatekeepers at the door of the bookstore?

These two men were carefully selected by Ruan Luo and sent to the martial arts hall for special cultivation, so it was a bit overkill to throw them at the door to guard the door, right? Could it be that they got too close and touched Ruan Luo's displeasure? This is even more difficult to say, because everyone who has dealt with Ruan Luo knows what a stable personality he is!

Although Mo Ye thought hesitantly in his heart, his steps not only did not stop, but also sped up.

As soon as she approached, the two "door gods" immediately discovered her, and the two of them had a pair of door-like faces just now, and their expressions suddenly became richer, but in summary, it actually meant the same thing, signaling her not to go over.

Seeing this situation, Mo Ye felt more and more strange.

However, she was so patient that she really didn't insist on entering the bookstore, and only stopped at the gate, but she faced the two Ruan Luo's bodyguards, and the first thing she said was very direct: "The two eldest brothers have worked hard, is my brother inside?" ”

The two bodyguards were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and quickly glanced at each other, their expressions as if they had just gone to the shop next door together to be thieves.

Immediately, the two of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and one of them reacted a little faster, and hurriedly replied: "Childe is not here." ”

These two people have already made a plan in their hearts: although Ruan Gongzi takes good care of the Mo girl in front of him on weekdays, but now he is likely to meet a royal family inside, so Miss Mo had better avoid it.

When he was "expelled" out of the store, the two masters from the palace just now had already reminded him that there were distinguished guests from the palace who came here without making a noise. When these two bodyguards first saw Mo Ye coming over, they were still worried about how to do this, and they didn't have to say it directly.

It's too simple, too easy, and too relevant for now.

Seeing that this bodyguard answered so simply. As if he couldn't wait to say these words to her, it was obvious that he meant to drive people away, and of course Mo Ye had doubts in his heart. But she didn't think of these two bodyguards as thieves. So although he was slightly suspicious in his heart, he only asked again in a normal tone: "Do you know where he went?" ”

"It seems that I went to talk to Boss Jin about business."

"He's home."

The two bodyguards replied at the same time.

Maybe it's because of the sudden arrival of the nobles in the palace. The two of them were too shocked, and at this moment, there was still some lack of stability in the relationship, and the tacit understanding between the two of them was also misunderstood, so they would give two explanations to Mo Ye's question.

Obviously, it is safest to say that he is going home, because Ruan Luo, who is going home, is most likely not to take them with him, but helplessly, there is another person who said that he went to ask Boss Jin, this answer undoubtedly pry over another person's words, and therefore his own words are a little unstable.

Mo Ye listened to the two of them say words that were obviously contradictory. At first, she couldn't help but want to debunk it directly, but she just moved her lips, and in the end she didn't say anything, because she suddenly realized that there was no real point in dwelling on this issue.

After sighing lightly, Mo Ye calmed down and said slowly: "My brother is often busy, but as his sister-in-law, it is rare for me to have anything to help, of course, I also know that if I don't bother him, I will help, so I shouldn't always keep an eye on his whereabouts." It's just that in recent days, things outside the home have doubled. I'm too busy to pay attention to his side, and I'm a little worried, how are the two eldest brothers looking at his diet in the past few days? ”

Mo Ye just mentioned it naturally. Unexpectedly, he asked about the difficulties of the two bodyguards again. After her question, the two men who are good at using force realized that they seemed to have ignored a problem in the past few days.

However, considering that there was a big man in the palace in the bookstore, it seemed that there was something extremely important to discuss with Ruan Gongzi alone, and the two bodyguards finally felt that they couldn't tell Mo Ye the truth. After the tacit understanding failure experience just now, the two of them at this time obviously increased their disguise skills, and they said more and omitted more, so they just nodded together and only said the word "good".

Mo Yehu glanced at the two of them suspiciously. If Ruan Luo was a person with a full stomach and intestines, she would probably be easy to associate the things in the study with a certain place at this time. But the image impression given by Nguyen Luo is obviously not like this. People who have had some contact with him are more likely to associate him with the habit of work more than play.

Despite this second question, the two bodyguards' responses were much more perfect than the first one. It also seemed to be more convincing, but Mo Ye didn't really feel at ease. However, although she was a little uneasy, it was not a day or two for the two young bodyguards in front of her to serve Ruan Luo, and she would not doubt the sincerity of these two waiters because she couldn't let go of that point in her heart.

What's more, she has been practicing martial arts for three years, and although she is very lacking in external practice moves, as long as she is willing, she can turn around and avoid these two people, so that she can find a corner of the wall and remove the tiles, she feels that there is no problem.

So in the face of these two bodyguards who were obviously hiding something and unwilling to tell the truth, she didn't continue to take the time to try to ask anything, just told a few more words, and then turned to leave.

Seeing that Mo Ye was finally willing to leave, looking at her back, which was walking away unhurriedly and looking a little thinner, the two young bodyguards standing at the door of the bookstore secretly breathed a sigh of relief, subconsciously looked at their partner, and immediately caught a trace of hesitation from the other party's eyes.

The two were stunned again while almost looking at each other, and after a moment of silence, the young man on the right side of the door finally spoke first, but what the young man on the left side of the door thought of at the same time: "Regarding this matter, shouldn't we hide it from Miss Mo?" ”

From the eyes of others, the relationship between Mo Ye and Ruan Luo is no different from that of a real brother and sister. Even if the two young men had been employed by Ruan Luo for a long time and knew the true relationship between their employer and Miss Mo, who had just arrived, it did not prevent them from thinking so.

Therefore, after hearing the words of the young man on the right, the young man standing on the left side of the door nodded in agreement before he had time to think too much.

However, he quickly shook his head in the negative, and after thinking about it, he said, "But this is also the first time we have encountered something like today. This is a special case, maybe Miss Mo needs to know or not, it is more appropriate for Ruan Gongzi to say. ”

The young man on the right side of the door heard this. His eyes lit up slightly, and he immediately overturned what he had just said. Nodding in agreement, he said, "You're right." We are just bodyguards hired by others, and we should avoid things in the employer's house that we don't need to be involved in. ”

While the two were having a brief conversation, they didn't notice that Mo Ye, who had already walked away, looked back at them. And Mo Ye, who just subconsciously looked back, saw the changes in the expressions on the faces of the two people at the door of the bookstore when they nodded and talked, as if they had reached some kind of happy cooperation idea, and the doubts in her heart became even heavier.

Originally, the idea of climbing over the wall and revealing the tiles only came to her mind for a short moment when she turned around and left the bookstore. But at this moment, as her doubts intensified, she might not be able to help but be curious to find out.

However, after she walked a few steps slowly, the thought that had been hesitantly brought up a second time was gently put down by herself.

One is because of her trust in those two young bodyguards, and the other is that she has some suspicions that she has become too complicated and sensitive today because of some foreign affairs, and she is a little worried. But the crucial point was that she saw a familiar figure walking towards her not far across the street.

In the three years after Ruan Luo lived in the Song Mansion, in addition to taking care of Mo Ye and Bai Tao as his own sisters, he was also quite friendly to the rest of the servants in the house, as Ye Nuonuo commented many times.

However, as a servant in the house. There must be an obligation to serve the master, and the distinction between master and servant is still existing. Fortunately, in addition to running more than a dozen shops every day, Ruan Luo has no hobbies in his limited spare time. In the past three years, he has often summoned only two girls, and even if he has been difficult to show the majesty of the head of the house, it will not affect the pampering and arrogance of all the servants in the entire mansion.

At this time, the person who came from across the street was one of the two girls that Ruan Luo often called, and of course Mo Ye would not feel strange.

"Grass?" As the maid Xiaocao approached, Mo Ye observed that her eyes were slightly red, as if she had just cried, and she felt even more puzzled in her heart, "What's wrong?" ”

Mo Ye would ask. It's not because she thought of what happened to Song Mansion from the tears in the corners of Xiaocao's eyes. What can happen to the Song family's mansion? There are dozens of guards with martial arts watching, taking turns to patrol the changing of the guard. Sometimes even Mo Ye feels that this spacious house is not for living. It's the place where the yamen works.

At this time, Mo Ye was just concerned about Xiaocao out of pure concern.

In recent years, although Ruan Luo would call these two girls whenever he had any trivial matters to help, it was not that they had to wait for the summons at the Song Mansion all day. For this point, Ruan Luo was very clear, and said that today, it was Xiaohua who stayed on duty in the Song Mansion - it is estimated that she was also idle at this time, either pruning flower branches or basking in the sun - and when Mo Ye went out today, it was just when Yang Chen went out to play and relax with the grass on duty.

Their wedding date is approaching, and the process of walking together should be extraordinarily sweet.

But at this time, Mo Ye only saw her come back alone, no, it can't be said that she is back, but it seems that she deliberately came to Ruan Luo for something.

As a girl who has served Ruan Luo for a long time, Xiaocao certainly knows where Ruan Luo spends most often when he is busy during the day, and from Mo Ye's eyes now, the attitude on Xiaocao's tear-stained face seems to be more preoccupied than wronged.

Things seemed to be as Mo Ye observed and speculated, Xiao Cao, who came here alone, was quite deep in her heart, and it was not until she was only a few steps away from Mo Ye that Xiao Cao recognized her CunzΓ i.

However, just by glancing at Mo Ye, Xiaocao seemed to suddenly see something that frightened her, her eyes shrunk, and her footsteps were slightly paused before returning to normal.

Because Mo Ye never looked away from the other party when she saw the other party in the first step, these fleeting details of behavior would be clearly seen by her.

In addition, Mo Ye could clearly see that when Xiaocao also discovered her with hindsight, she actually showed a smile. In Mo Ye's opinion, this smile certainly seemed a little strange.

Facing Mo Ye's concerned question, Xiaocao, who approached, only shook his head slightly, and did not say anything immediately.

She first glanced in the direction of the bookstore a street away, and the reluctant smile on her face gradually faded, and then she turned her gaze to look at Mo Ye and asked, "Miss, did you ...... just now?" Young master, is he busy now? ”――

(To be continued)
