Volume 1 Northwest Wind Chapter 20 The night is accompanied by the letter and the evening, and the moon is accompanied by the moon

As the night deepened, Jiang Lan also changed into black clothes and came near Yanlai Villa.

He was located near the back garden of the villa. There is a high courtyard wall on the periphery of the garden, but how can this stop Jiang Lan. With just one lunge, he easily jumped over the high wall.

As soon as he climbed into the wall, Jiang Lan saw that the lights were on not far away, and under the lights, there was a woman's figure.

"Is that her?" Jiang Lan said in his heart, he hurriedly hid in the shadows.

It was late at night, and the moon was full in the sky. The watery moonlight sprinkled the garden, wrapping the flowers and plants in silver. In a pond in the middle of the garden, the white moon is reflected on the water, the blue waves are flowing, and the silver light is rippling on the water.

There is a pavilion built next to the pool, and in the pavilion, Han Xi is leaning on the railing alone. But seeing her embroidered eyebrows and frowns, a pair of bright eyes reflecting the full moon in the water, between the corners of her eyes, there seemed to be some unexplained sadness and sorrow......

"Lord Dianyi, Lord Yuan, please come over."

A guard's report pulled Han Xi out of his endless thoughts.

"Got it." Han Xi said calmly, but he didn't look back.

She closed her eyes and adjusted her mind. After a while, he opened his eyes again, and the sorrow of Fang Cai had been swept away, leaving only a cold breath. Then he got up and went with the guard.

The garden in the middle of the night was very quiet, so quiet that even Jiang Lan in the distance could hear the conversation between the two clearly.

"Lord Yuan? The father-in-law mentioned that the surname 'Yuan' was the surname of the imperial relatives of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Could it be that there are big people in the Northern Wei Dynasty in this villa? Jiang Lan thought to himself, he decided to go with him to investigate.

Seeing that the two of them left, there was no one else in the garden, and Jiang Lan was no longer hiding. As soon as he stepped on his feet, he climbed a rockery. Then he jumped lightly and reached a rooftop again.

He followed the two men below on the eaves, and after going around and around, he came outside a hall.

This hall is slightly smaller than the one that burned down before. There were seven or eight guards standing at the entrance of the hall, and from time to time there were bands of guards patrolling back and forth.

It can be guessed that there must be an important person in this hall!

Han Xi stepped into the hall, which made Jiang Lan embarrassed - there was a large compound between the roof where he was at this time and the hall. The guards below were not blind, and he didn't dare to go over directly......

Just when he was at a loss, he saw a guard in the courtyard, holding his stomach and rushing to the thatched house on the edge of the courtyard. Jiang Lan had an idea, and then the person disappeared in place.

After half a pillar of incense, Jiang Lan changed into the clothes of the villa guards, walked out of the thatched house, and scolded the street in a low voice as he walked: "This guy is too bold!" I was scared...... Alas...... Bear with me for a while......"

"Stop, where did you come from?" As soon as Jiang Lan walked to the front of the hall, he was stopped by a guard.

"I'm the old king of the night watch, why, you don't know me?" Jiang Lan lied, at this moment, he was sticking to his beard, but he was not afraid of being recognized by the other party.

"Which old king? What do I think of your face? The guard wondered.

"Noodle ...... Belch...... I just transferred here a few days ago, and it's normal that you don't know each other. ”

"Oh, just transferred." The guard was suspicious, and looked around Jiang Lan, but when he walked behind Jiang Lan, he suddenly covered his nose, "Why do you stink so much!" ”

"Uh...... Just now, carelessly...... I couldn't hold back ......"

Jiang Lan explained, even if he was such a shameless person, he was embarrassed by what the other party said. He couldn't stop cursing the original owner of this dress in his heart.

"That's it!" The guard looked disgusted, "Go and change your body......"

"Good ......"

Jiang Lan walked away with an embarrassed face, and he came to the side of the hall. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he jumped directly on the spot and went up to the roof of the hall.

On the roof, Jiang Lan turned over a tile and looked inside the house through the gap. I saw that there were three people in the room, except for Han Xi, who had just entered, and Ru Luochen, who had seen him before, there was also a young man in his early twenties sitting on the main seat of the hall.

This young man was dressed in brocade clothes, embroidered gold official boots, and wore a jade tiger crown on his head, and he was not an ordinary person at first glance.

"That blind man Xu is so bold! Dare to bargain with this official! The young man slapped the table and said angrily, "The opening is 100,000 silver, is he treating my Great Wei Kingdom as a money bank?" ”

"Lord Yuan, please calm your anger, you can't be angry with a dog." Ru Luo Chen said respectfully on the side, "Since this dog is disobedient, slaughter him...... And then take over the intelligence network in his hands, so that we don't have to be controlled everywhere in this northwest, isn't it beautiful? ”

Hearing Ru Luochen's thoughts, Lord Yuan's eyes lit up, he just wanted to say something, but he heard Han Xi on the side speak out against it: "My lord, this move must not be!" Although the blind man Xu has a heart of disobedience, he also has information about us in his hands. If it is forced to be urgent, the dog jumps under the wall in a hurry and hands them over to the Liang court, then there will be a big trouble. ”

"Humph! Noremonies-sama is thinking too much. Ru Luo Chen snorted coldly, "If we call that blind man Xu to the villa, and then wipe him out with his subordinate snake guards, how can he have a chance to jump over the wall?" ”

"Hehe, interesting, both sides are calculating each other." Jiang Lan almost laughed out loud when he heard this.

"This ......" Han Xi was asked by Ru Luochen for a while, she always felt that this matter was not simple, but she couldn't tell why.

"Alright, alright," Lord Yuan waved his hand, "I think this matter should be done according to Luo Chen's words, there is no need to discuss it anymore!" ”

The three of them made up their minds, and then discussed some other matters.

After several discussions, a tired look also appeared on Lord Yuan's face, and when Han Xi and the two of them saw this, they got up and retired.

"Wait." Just as Han Xi was about to go out, she heard Lord Yuan stop her.

"What's the matter, my lord?"

"Ritual ...... No, Hanxi...... It's been two years since you were sent here! ”

"It's been two years and three months." Hanxi replied softly.

Lord Yuan nodded when he heard this, with a look of pity. It's just that under a closer look, there seems to be a fire hidden in that pity: "It was my father's wish to send you here, but it was not my intention. Committed to being by Yu Fengqiu's side, I really wronged you......"

"Can be loyal to the court, the little woman has no regrets in her heart......"

"Don't say that...... Now that the old man is dead, shouldn't you also think about your life's work? ”

Han Xi heard the meaning of Lord Yuan's words, and she bowed down and saluted: "Lord Yu cares, it's just ...... The little woman is now a widow, both nominally and in fact, but she does not dare to think about her children anymore. ”

"You can't think like that...... You also know that you are committed to Fengqiu, but it is only for the mission of the imperial court. Even if there is a husband and wife, it is not countable...... Moreover," Lord Yuan licked his lips when he said this, "Moreover, although the official now has a wife's room, the position of the concubine is still vacant, so it is better to ......"

Master Yuan went around in a big circle and finally said what he thought.

Han Xi frowned when he heard this: "My lord, please don't say anything more...... The little woman is a little tired, please leave......"

"Murong Hanxi! Don't be embarrassed! You're just an abandoned daughter of the royal family, and you have even taken your surname! This official is also the eldest son of the county king, and it is already a great blessing for you to be able to take a fancy to you! Seeing this, Lord Yuan was annoyed and angry.

Hearing this, Han Xi just glanced at Master Yuan coldly, but didn't say anything, and then turned around and left. Lord Solyu Gen was impotent and furious in the hall......

"The abandoned daughter of the royal family? The eldest son of the county king? This amount of information is too much......" Jiang Lan was stunned by Lord Yuan's words. He looked at the figure of Han Xi leaving, and unexpectedly followed him.

……

In the middle of the night, the breeze, the silver moon, the lonely lamp.

Han Xi returned to the pavilion alone, and at this moment, her face was not only sad, but also a little indignant. The red sleeves brushed over and gently wiped the sparkle from the corners of the eyes.

"Come out...... No need to hide anymore......" Han Xi seemed to be talking to himself, but Jiang Lan behind the rockery was taken aback.

"You...... How did you ......" Jiang Lan walked out unconsciously, he was still surprised at first, and wanted to ask how the other party found out. But when he saw the tears on Han Xi's face, the words that came to his mouth changed, and he asked, "...... You, are you alright? ”

Han Xi didn't answer, she glanced at Jiang Lan who was pretending to be a guard in front of her, and asked, "Who are you?" Why are you tracking me? ”

"I ......" Jiang Lan didn't know how to answer.

If it was replaced by Ru Luochen, Jiang Lan would definitely not hesitate to take action. But when he saw Hanxi, Jiang Lan had an indescribable feeling, not only difficult to think badly, but also a faint pity.

"It's Lord Yuan who sent you......" Han Xi said coldly, obviously treating Jiang Lan as a subordinate sent by Lord Yuan to persuade him, "You go back and tell him, just say that I have made up my mind and will never yield to him!" ”

She finished silently, but saw that the guard was still standing still: "Don't you understand, I'll say it again...... It's you? ”

Han Xi was just about to have a seizure, she looked at the guard and found that although the other party had two beards, his appearance was no different from Jiang Lan who escaped a few days ago!

"Don't make a sound!"

Seeing this, Jiang Lan hurriedly stepped forward, covering Han Xi's mouth with one hand, and holding him in his arms with the other.

He looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, he whispered, "The master told you well...... The master doesn't want to make a move on you, so don't shout and scream......"

Han Xi couldn't make a sound, just nodded.

I don't know if it's Jiang Lan's illusion, he vaguely saw that his cold face was dyed with a light crimson.

He let go of his hands and let Han Xi get out.

"What kind of ...... on you" Han Xi, who had just come out, couldn't help but cover his nose and said.

Hearing this, Jiang Lan's face turned red for a while, and he immediately took two steps back: "Uh...... It doesn't matter......"

Just when he didn't know how to explain, he heard Han Xi ask: "Since you escaped, why did you come back?" ”

Jiang Lan frowned, and then said with a smile: "If the master said that he came back to see you, do you believe it?" ”
