"Are you hungry? I never knew you still liked to eat osmanthus cake. ”

Du Yan glanced back at Xiao Yechen, and then shook her head as if she remembered something.

"It's not that I like it, it's Du Juan'er who likes it." The two walked into the pastry shop, Du Yan asked the store to pack a osmanthus cake, when the store went to pack, Du Yan and Xiao Yechen were waiting outside, maybe the topic was heavy just now, at this time, Xiao Yechen wanted to relieve the tense and awkward atmosphere between the two, so he asked casually

"Will you still buy food for Du Juan'er?"

"......, my father asked me to bring it."

After Xiao Yechen asked this sentence, it seemed to make the atmosphere between the two even more awkward, he lowered his head and coughed lightly, thought about it and said, "Has it affected you, this matter." ”

Du Yan shook her head, and then turned her head to look at Xiao Yechen suspiciously.

"How could Aunt He die? Do you know something? ”

"I also think it's strange, don't look at me with such eyes, I really don't know the truth."

Du Yan turned around, she faced Xiao Yechen, her eyes fixed on him, as if she wanted to get some information from Xiao Yechen's body.

"Actually, the legend of Fenglailou ......, and there is a later part. The kid also saw another person. I'll just say it bluntly, it's Xiao Wenqing.

- Are you brothers with him, do you have a private relationship? ”

Du Yan didn't continue after saying this, her eyes were on Xiao Yechen's body, in fact, she didn't know much about Xiao Yechen, and she didn't have much personal friendship with him in her previous life, although he was killed by Xiao Wenqing in the end, but in the folk stories, Xiao Yechen and Xiao Wenqing were always put together.

Xiao Yechen stood in place, his handsome face was colorless, Du Yan in his eyes was questioning him, looking at him with a suspicious gaze, Xiao Yechen suddenly wanted to explain, Xiao Yechen didn't care what others said in the past, how could others care about themselves? It's just that in the face of Du Yan, he always wants to be honest, and he doesn't want to deceive Du Yan at all.

"You also said that the rumors in the rivers and lakes are not credible."

"I'm not asking about you now, but about you before, and you used to have a good relationship with him."

"What do you want to say?" Faced with Du Yan's question, Xiao Yechen didn't know what to answer, so he could only look at her lightly.

Du Yan turned around and closed her eyes, forcibly suppressing her desire to question, she knew that this was not good.

"Two, the osmanthus cake is wrapped. If you two eat well, remember to come again. The shopkeeper took a small bag of osmanthus cake and handed it to Xiao Yechen, smiling to attract repeat customers, Xiao Yechen smiled at the boss and walked out of the shop with his things.

Du Yan walked in front, Xiao Yechen led the horse and followed behind, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere along the way was extremely cold. In the end, Xiao Yechen couldn't stand it first, no matter what Du Yan wanted to ask, she would at least answer truthfully, so that no matter what she thought, she could deal with it calmly.

"After all, they are all the same brother, and they have been together since childhood, so they naturally have some friendship. The rumors on the market are not all true, but sometimes we are deliberately put together to add a bit of gimmick.

As for what you want to ask, did I also help Xiao Wenqing come and frame you in my last life? You know—"

"I know, I know you saved me in my last life. I don't doubt your position, as far as I am concerned, Your Royal Highness can ask for a favor for me, and Du Yan is grateful enough to Dade. ”

Xiao Yechen sighed softly in the back, she still didn't understand, what Du Yan said was really poking his heart with a knife, Xiao Yechen couldn't slow down such a taste for a while, so he shut up. The taste of being pushed away by a loved one is too hard.

Du Yan didn't look back, nor did she see Xiao Yechen's sadness as if she was in another world, she thought about the thing in her heart, and felt that she might be suffocated to death if she didn't ask again.

"In the last life, Xiao Wenqing sent someone to kill my friend, and the person he sent was a famous killer Wen Luo on the rivers and lakes, you are good friends with him, yes or no!"

Du Yan suddenly raised her voice, turned her head and stared at Xiao Yechen viciously. Xiao Yechen was startled by Du Yan's sudden loud voice, so much so that he hadn't cleaned up his lonely expression.

Du Yan saw that Xiao Yechen's face was not good, and she also felt that she might have done too much, but she had already asked what she said, and now it would be abnormal to take it back. So Du Yan stood in front of Xiao Yechen not far from Xiao Yechen with an embarrassed face, not daring to walk in with him, nor daring to question again.

However, this incident really bothered her for a long time, and since she remembered that story, she had been constantly doubting Xiao Yechen.

Maybe the rumors in the world are true, just like the emperor's reward and punishment door, Xiao Wenqing was not able to touch it when he was most favored, but these were held tightly in Xiao Yechen's hands, I heard that the national teacher of the dynasty was also a person in the rivers and lakes, so Xiao Yechen, who was a disciple of the national teacher, was not the most dignified person who came into contact with these killers.

"I do have some friendship with Wenluo, but I can't decide who he wants to kill."

Xiao Yechen frowned, led the horse a few steps forward, this time it was Xiao Yechen's turn to walk in front, Du Yan was behind him, Xiao Yechen was wearing a single coat that made his shoulders look a little thin, I don't know if it was Du Yan's hallucination, she always felt that Xiao Yechen was very lonely at the moment, as if she was disappointed in something.

The two of them walked to the Prime Minister's Mansion relatively wordlessly, along the way Du Yan wanted to say something to hide her embarrassment, or turn this one over, she knew that it was very wrong for her to suspect people, but, but she was just angry, she suddenly linked Xiao Yechen and Xiao Wenqing together, Du Yan raised her hand and knocked her head resentfully, why was she so impulsive, what if Xiao Yechen didn't help her now.

Du Yan was still thinking about how to apologize to Xiao Yechen and ease their alliance, but Xiao Yechen gave her the things in his hand like a nobody.

"Go in and get some rest."

Du Yan thought that Xiao Yechen was fine, but as soon as he finished speaking, he stepped on the horse's back, raised his whip and waved it, and the white horse took him away with the wind, leaving a white dust on the street.

Du Yan returned to the mansion and heard that the old man and the second lady had already slept, so she took her things and returned to her courtyard. It just so happens that she is tired for a day, and no one wants to see her, and one by one will save her trouble.

So as soon as Du Yan returned to the Hehuan Courtyard, she had such a bad face, and the maid Xiaolu looked at Du Yan's face, cautiously approached Du Yan's side, and then carefully asked Du Yan if she wanted to take a hot bath.

Du Yan replied angrily.

"Don't wash, wash, sleep!"
