The two people in the room were silent.

Xiaoyi let go of Du Ruosheng, Ruosheng took two steps back and stood still.

"I know, let's take General Qi to the main hall first." Xiaoyi responded outside the house.

"Yes, General." The guards outside the door should arrive.

Then, he looked at Du Ruosheng again, and Du Ruosheng still looked at him with a resentful look.

"If you want Qi Guang to find you, you just have to toss." After sneering, he walked out of the room.

After Qi Guang left, Du Ruosheng raised her hand and gently touched the wound on the side of her mouth, the scene that happened just now made her angry and ashamed.

I wanted to find out Xiaoyi's thoughts, but I didn't expect to be defeated by him, but how did Qi Guang come back to find him at this time, Ruosheng was puzzled.

She put on the black hat from her cloak again, and left the study, groping her way in the direction of the main hall.

Xiaoyi came to the main hall, where Qi Guang was waiting.

"General Qi." Xiaoyi called.

Qi Guang turned around and called in unison: "Xiao ......" but didn't know what to call it.

"General Qi, call me Xiao Gongzi in private." Xiaoyi said.

"It's okay, Xiao Gongzi." Qi Guang responded.

The two sat down, and Xiaoyi asked, "Why did General Qi visit the office late at night?" ”

"There is something I want to tell Xiao Gongzi." Qi Guang said warmly.

"General Qi, please speak."

"The personal guards under Xiao Gongzi's current command are actually soldiers and horses that Jiang Gongzi has been secretly gathering for the emperor for many years, and this time it is also to suppress the forces with bad intentions in the court, so he will return to the court."

"I know that."

"Well, since that's the case, I made it clear that this soldier and horse was recruited by Jiang Gongzi, so although the emperor did not say it explicitly, Jiang Gongzi has the right to dispatch soldiers and horses."

"I understand what the emperor and General Qi mean, it is inconvenient for Jiang Gongzi to come forward, so I am just responsible for this soldier and horse, but in fact, the right is still with Jiang Gongzi, right?"

Xiao Yi asked rhetorically, of course Xiao Yi understood that it was impossible for them to give him this power for nothing, so he also expected it.

"The emperor didn't mean this, the emperor meant that Jiang Gongzi and Xiao Gongzi could coexist and take care of the guards." Qi Guang smiled lightly and said slowly.

"I will not disappoint the emperor's wishes, and I will definitely take charge of this pro-guard army with Gongzi Jiang." Xiaoyi's face was pleasant, and he echoed.

Qi Guang naturally wanted to hear such an answer, and nodded with satisfaction.

And Du Ruosheng, who was groping and finding, happened to stop in front of the door, and she turned her head slightly to see the two people with pleasant faces in the hall, and she didn't know what they had discussed before.

"What people!" Du Ruosheng, who only cared about the two people in the hall, was taken aback by the guards patrolling the mansion.

She quickly left, turned and ran towards a courtyard, where the two men in the hall were startled by the shouts outside the house and walked out.

"Stop, what's going on?" Xiaoyi stopped a person and asked in a solemn voice.

"Two generals, I just found out that there was a person sneaking in front of the main hall, she ran to the other courtyard, and we are sending someone to search." The man replied respectfully.

"Go and find it, you can't let this person escape." Qi Guang sank and ordered.

Xiaoyi looked at Qi Guang's nervous appearance, but his heart was indifferent, he obviously said that Du Ruosheng should stay obediently, but she was really still so disobedient.

Qi Guang turned his face, and Xiao Yi's face also had a sad color, "Xiao Gongzi's mansion, how can someone get involved so easily?" ”

"What does General Qi mean by this? Isn't Mo suspicious of Xiao? Xiaoyi frowned, pretending to be displeased.

Qi Guang carefully observed Xiaoyi's changes, but Xiaoyi didn't look unusual.

"I don't have this intention, but Xiao Gongzi should pay more attention, don't let those who have a heart take advantage of it." Qi Guang said lightly.

Then, the two men followed in the direction that the guards were pursuing.

Xiaoyi watched the group of people search around, but they didn't find any results, but this was also expected.

With their ability, it is still impossible to catch Du Ruosheng.

Qi Guang saw that they had not made much progress, although he was worried, but he was also helpless, looking at Xiaoyi, he was not as anxious and worried as before.

"Two generals, nothing was found." A guard walked over to the two and arrived.

Qi Guang said in a deep voice: "That's it, you guys are so big, you don't know where to hide, so let's retreat." ”

"Yes." The guards arrived, and then left in a procession.

"Xiao Gongzi, it's already night today, so I won't be there for long, and I hope I can remember what I just said."

Qi Guang asked again before leaving.

"Xiao wrote it down, and General Qi walked slowly." Xiaoyi replied slightly.

Then, he watched Qi Guang leave.

Not long after Qi Guang left, Xiaoyi whispered in the courtyard: "Come out, everyone is gone." ”

As soon as the words fell, Ruosheng flew from behind a roof and landed in front of Xiaoyi. Beautiful book bar

"What, are you still reluctant to leave?" Xiaoyi said with a little playfulness, and he couldn't see the original gentle and elegant appearance at all.

"How did you become the way you are?" There was a sigh in Ruosheng's tone.

"As if you knew me well, how can you be sure that what I used to be is not an illusion, not what I have become, but that you never knew me."

Xiaoyi denied.

"Yes, what do you have to do with me?" Du Ruosheng said disappointedly, and prepared to leave here.

"Don't forget, our pact. Now we are still in the same boat. ”

When Ruosheng looked back at him, he raised his left arm to signal to her, and pointed to the wound at the corner of his mouth.

Ruosheng only felt a burst of shame, glared angrily, said nothing, turned around and quickened his pace and walked towards the door of the mansion.

……

In the palace, when Tan'er returned to Huaqing Palace, she saw that Du Ruosheng's bedroom had turned off the lights, and she didn't think much about it.

"Falling jade, falling jade." Tan'er called a few times, but when she saw that no one paid attention, she thought that she might have rested, so she also went back to her room.

And Luoyu, who was lying in Du Ruosheng's bedroom, didn't dare to close his eyes for a moment of nervousness, and even became even more worried after hearing Tan'er's call outside the hall.

I can only pray that Du Ruosheng can come back soon.

And when Du Ruosheng left Xiaoyi Mansion, he lowered his hat and quickly disappeared here, but he didn't want to, Qi Guang, who had just left, happened to notice her.

Qi Guang's mansion is not far from Xiaoyi's mansion, and Du Ruosheng will pass by here when he leaves, Qi Guang can't see her appearance and clothes clearly, Du Ruosheng is anxious, and he doesn't notice Qi Guang walking in the dark.

Qi Guang looked at the direction she came, which was the direction of Xiaoyi's mansion, and was suspicious in his heart.

But Ruosheng was very fast, so her figure quickly disappeared from Qi Guang's sight.

Ruosheng entered the palace and returned to Huaqing Palace.

She looked left and right before heading in the direction of the dormitory, and just opened the door of the hall and entered, Tan'er, who was not far from the dormitory, had not yet fallen asleep, and happened to hear a sound.

She got up and dressed, went out of the room, and walked in the direction of the dormitory, intending to investigate.

As soon as he walked out of the palace, he saw Luo Yu carefully coming out of the hall.

Tan'er didn't respond to Luoyu's call just now, so she thought she was asleep, but this would suddenly come out of here, making Tan'er a little curious.

Tan'er walked over quickly and whispered to Luoyu.

When Luoyu heard Tan'er's voice, she only "chuckled" in her heart and became nervous.

"Why haven't you slept so late, didn't the mother rest a long time ago?"

Luoyu turned around, lowered her head, and Tan'er asked suspiciously.

Fortunately, the night was dark, and Tan'er couldn't see the nervous look on Luoyu's face at this time.

"Niangniang has the habit of getting up in the middle of the night, I'm worried, so I came to take a look, I'm afraid that there will be no one around Niangniang to serve."

"Didn't you leave anyone to wait tonight?" In the past, there would be maidservants who kept vigil and waited, Luoyu said so, but Tan'er didn't believe it.

"Niangniang has never liked them to disturb, you know this girl." Luo Yu found a reason to explain.

Tan'er thought about it, but it was like this, so she nodded hesitantly.

"Is there anything wrong with that mother?" Tan'er asked again.

"It's nothing, I'm asleep now. The girl doesn't have to worry. Luo Yu hurriedly said.

Tan'er looked at her like this, and always felt that today's Luoyu was a little weird, she was not as anxious and flustered as she was today, but after asking a few words, she felt that she was nervous.

"Then you should rest sooner."

"Yes, so is the girl."

Luo Yu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and left quickly.

Tan'er looked at her hurried back, looked in the direction of the dormitory, shook her head helplessly, and then went back to her room.

When Du Ruosheng returned to the dormitory, he changed his clothes, lit the lamp in the inner hall, and saw the wound at the corner of his mouth from the bronze mirror.

Rolling up the sleeve of her right hand, she saw the familiar crimson dark lines, the qi veins were connected, the lifelines were connected, the time had passed so long, so long that she almost forgot that her life had been connected to that person.

And Xiao Yi in the general's mansion was also looking at the dark pattern, with a heavy expression.

His life is connected to Du Ruosheng's life, I don't know what Yan Qinghan's reaction would be if he knew about it.

Thinking of the scene that happened in the mansion just now, he didn't know why he wanted to kiss Du Ruosheng, as if he was out of control, he was jealous for a moment that she cared about Yan Qinghan like that.

Obviously, she saved her, obviously it was the person who hurt her, and they also lied to her, why could she forgive Yan Qinghan, but she couldn't help but blame herself.

I don't know when his heart has quietly changed, but Xiaoyi knows that no matter what, no one can stop him from taking revenge, he can only suppress his heart and tell himself over and over again that it is just unwilling, unwilling.

However, the technique of connecting qi and veins did hinder him, and if he didn't remove this technique, they would always contain each other, which was not a solution after all.

Du Ruosheng also had the same thoughts as him, because she didn't know what Yan Qinghan's reaction would be if she knew about this, and what she wanted to do now seemed to be useless.

That night, they all fell into sorrow.
