Chapter 399: Determination
Ten days later, at the Kyoto harbor, Shen Meiyunpei and his party finally arrived.
In the harbor of Nuoda, there is an endless stream of merchant ships coming and going, and people come and go on the wharf, Shen Mei helped the eldest lady to get off the ship, standing on the wharf and looking at everything here, familiar and unfamiliar.
Zhao Ling'er saw the world outside Yulin Country for the first time, and her eyes were full of novelty, looking around, full of smiles.
Yun Pei quietly got off the boat, his expression was complicated, this place was full of memories for him, and now these memories were rushing like a flood that burst the embankment.
I remember my childhood self, I love to come to the dock, and I stay all day, because only here can I see the joys and sorrows of the world, and all the emotions in the world are staged countless on this pier, at that time, their family was also in such a late autumn sunny day, leaving this bustling Kyoto dock, this farewell, is ten years, ten years of life and death, things are wrong, my father couldn't wait for the day he came back, but no matter what, he wanted to revive the Yun family, and let the truth of the things of the year be revealed.
"Xiaomei, we're finally back." The silver threads of the lady's sideburns fluttered slightly with the wind, and the years did not treat anyone gently, looking at the fine lines on the mother's face, the eyes were ruddy and steamy. Yi excitedly clenched Shen Mei's hand.
A few people walked slowly, Yun Pei didn't know when to take care of everything, and before he went far, he saw a carriage coming slowly, and then stopped in front of a few people, only to see the people in the carriage open the curtain, and the handsome eyebrows appeared in front of Shen Mei again.
"It turned out to be a major general." Shen Mei bowed to him slightly.
Zhao Linrui knew Shen Mei and responded with a smile.
"Auntie, please. And Brother Yun. Miss Shen, who else is this?"
"This is my sister, called Zhao Ling'er." Shen Mei still concealed Zhao Ling'er's identity.
Although I understand that Zhao Linrui is not a bad person, but this is the capital, I don't know what happened to Ling'er at the beginning, and now that everyone is out of the capital, it is better to be careful.
Zhao Ling'er understood and nodded.
The group talked a lot along the way with the sound of horses' hooves, Zhao Linrui got Yun Pei's letter as early as a month ago, and knew that Yun Pei had made up his mind to return to the capital, so he had already taken care of everything, as well as this mansion.
"This house was originally bought by a salt merchant, but when the salt merchant returned to his hometown, the house was empty, and although it was smaller, it was exquisitely laid out. I don't know if the eldest lady likes it or not, if you think it's not good, you can change it again. Zhao Linrui stood beside the eldest lady and said patiently.
Shen Mei raised her eyes to see that there was a tree of osmanthus planted in the yard, in late autumn, the golden flowers of this tree, clusters, fragrant with the wind, smelling Yiren, couldn't help but remind people of the taste of osmanthus cake, full of fragrance.
Yun Pei glanced at Shen Mei, "Hungry?"
Zhao Ling'er heard it, "Mmmmmmmm." He nodded hurriedly, thinking that Yun Pei had a mind reading technique or something, but he suddenly guessed what he was thinking.
When I turned around, I saw Yun Pei's eyes falling on Sister Shen Mei's face with a smile, and then understood that Yun Pei was asking Sister Shen Mei just now, lowered her head and smiled secretly, feeling as if she had ruined someone else's business, and hurriedly trotted into the door.
Shen Mei frowned, knowing that Yun Pei's words had caused misunderstanding among others.
"You ......"
"What's wrong with me......"
"Nothing." Shen Mei was angry, shook her head, and entered the courtyard.
Yun Pei saw her like this, and the smile on the corner of her mouth deepened. It's rare to see her smile to herself like before. Fortunately, I didn't continue to get along with myself.
Realizing this, Yun Pei felt relaxed.
The yard is not big, but it can be seen everywhere that the previous owner carefully took care of every corner, down to a flower and a grass, as well as the layout of the objects in each room, which always gives people just the right fit.
Yun Pei thanked Zhao Linrui for his help, and had a light meal together, after three rounds of wine, Zhao Linrui's eyes showed a little drunkenness, with a drunken tone, and picked up the wine glass, "Brother Yun, I am really happy that you are willing to come back." Whatever happens in the future, I'm here. ”
Yun Pei knew that he was drunk, and he didn't want to sweep away his interest, and when he returned to the capital, Lin Rui helped him a lot, this friendship, mixed with a thousand words, was in the wine, stuffed his head, filled the wine glass in his hand, and then wiped it out.
In the hunting ground in the western suburbs, since the emperor was suspicious just now, Mu Lingxuan began to vaguely feel that something was wrong, even he didn't know who hunted this white tiger, and how he got to his side, just now from the emperor's eyes seemed to see something strange, could it be that he knew who it was.
Back in their respective camps, Mu Lingxuan immediately asked someone to ask the ins and outs of the whole thing.
"You say, the white tiger was hunted by the third prince?" Mu Lingxuan almost asked stiffly in a voice that gritted his teeth.
The people below had already sensed the anger in the prince's tone, and they trembled a little.
"Then, who sent the white tiger over?"
"This, I'm afraid that the people below are mistaken, and everyone can't tell why." The person who came lowered his head and replied resignedly.
"Get out!"
When the people retreated, they heard only a chaotic sound in the house, and no one dared to approach.
"Third master, this time ......" Mu Qingfeng asked Luo Jiuge to come to the long pavilion of the hunting courtyard for a drink.
"Knowingly ask why, since someone wants to play, I will accompany him to the end." After speaking, he smiled and looked at the camp of King Chen, which was not far away.
Qiu Rong'er didn't know where to get the stewed mutton overnight, and took people to Mu Qingfeng's tent, and the guards on duty outside told her about Mu Qingfeng's outing, Qiu Rong'er smiled.
"A few of you have also worked hard, since the third master is out, then I will wait in the tent." After speaking, he gave some silver reward.
Several soldiers felt that this was Princess Jing, and they couldn't distract from others no matter what, so they hurriedly and politely invited Princess Jing in.
The night was deep and heavy, and it was almost time for Mu Qingfeng to go back.
"See King Jing, Princess Jing has been waiting for you for a night." The soldier told Mu Qingfeng about Qiu Rong'er's arrival.
I saw him enter the tent with a blank face. There was a food box on the low table, and the woman lying on her stomach next to her seemed to have been sleepy for a long time, and the dim candlelight was extinguished.
Mu Qingfeng looked very displeased. He simply picked him up and put him on the couch, then turned around and walked out of the tent.
The soldiers outside were full of puzzlement, why did they have to go out again as soon as they came back, but compared to just now, the current Mu Qingfeng looked like a yin owl, so that they didn't dare to ask more questions.
"Third master, why are you here......" Luo Jiuge was puzzled, he went back just now, why did he come here again.
"Tonight, I'll sleep with you." After Mu Qingfeng finished speaking, he walked towards the only bed without saying a word, leaving only Luo Jiuge's face full of grief and depression.
