The carriage walked slowly on the avenue, Cheng Jingxi swayed slightly from side to side with the body, and what lingered in his mind was Gu Boyan's face that the limit was approaching, as if one foot had stepped into the palace of Hades.

He looked like he was about to say his last words when he spoke again.

Cheng Jingxi's first impression of Gu Boyan was not very good, so the next two goodbyes were not better, and the second time he was plausibly lost, the impression was not much better.

She didn't have time to take care of it today, otherwise she wouldn't have let him pass so easily.

It's just that what did the emperor summon him into the palace at this time?

After Gu Boyan finished seeing him in the study, the emperor gave him a seat and asked, "Can I find someone?" ”

"Back to the emperor," Gu Boyan said, "it has been settled." ”

There was no expression on the emperor's face, and he couldn't hear anything in his tone, "Then she will leave it to Gu Qing to take care of for the time being." ”

Gu Boyan saluted and replied, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty." ”

The carriage swayed slowly through the main street, and Cheng Jingxi opened the curtain a crack, secretly peeking at the world under his feet.

After watching it for a long time, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

There is a saying that "peers are enemies", and there are countless peers on this long street, so there will be countless intrigues, petty fights or court battles, and endless tricks are being renovated all the time. And there are many such streets and alleys in the capital.

Everyone wants to do a small business and live a comfortable life, but when they are comfortable, some people are uncomfortable, and the contradiction comes from now on, as if they are tired and never die.

Then she and her so-called "peers" are probably the same!

When Cheng Jingxi was slightly distracted, she heard the entourage outside whispering, "Your Highness, it's here." ”

She got out of the car as she was told, happened to be facing west, looked up at the sunset with only one line left, and suddenly realized that the day was about to pass.

I don't know how many lives Ye Huaiyu has at this time, which is three hundred miles away.

The emperor's last look frightened her, and she was afraid that she would sit on him because of her.

When she was about to arrive at her yard, Cheng Jingxi saw the maid Bi'er looking at the gate of the courtyard from a distance, and when she saw her with sharp eyes, she hurriedly greeted her.

"Your Highness!"

Cheng Jingxi looked at her and asked, "What are you running?" ”

The little maid whispered: "The second young grandmother made a cage for her cat and carried it all the way to our yard!" ”

Cheng Jingxi raised her eyebrows, "How long have you been here?" ”

"When she came at noon, the slave told her that someone from the palace had taken His Highness away and looked at her waist. After staying for a while, he saw that His Highness had no intention of coming back, so he went back with the cage. I came over again at noon, still like that, I came here again just now, Your Highness, the second young grandmother is determined to see you this time! ”

Cheng Jingxi slowly collapsed while listening to the maid's words, and when Bi'er finished speaking, she couldn't go by herself.

I didn't care about this matter yesterday, why is it not over for the Yuan family himself?

The endless Yuan family hurriedly came out of the house with the cat cage, and when he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he saw such a half-naked scene.

Yesterday, I said that I couldn't stand up for a month, and I can enter the palace today, didn't I say that I would be cured? How can you look like you won't be better in another year and a half?

When she thought about it, she had already put down the cat cage and greeted her, with a concerned expression, "Princess, your waist ......"

Cheng Jingxi's face was bitter, and she almost cried, "Originally, it was better, but I didn't want to come back all the way back and get tired again......"

The maid whispered and replied in a low voice: "Your Highness, Your Highness's waist ......" Half of the words were spoken, and the remaining half was mixed into crying.

Yuan Shixin said that I have watched so many plays in the opera garden, and I have never seen any one that can compare to you, why is the play so sufficient?

Although she had already scolded her mother in her heart, she still had to bow her eyebrows and pretend to be her grandson obediently, so she also made a bitter face, and said in a very self-repellent tone: "Princess, I have already sent the cat princess over, what to do, it's all up to the princess!" ”

Cheng Jingxi squinted at the cat cage on the ground, the big black cat in it looked a little wilted, and the green eyes were listless, and they were tired after about a day. It would have been a thought to even look up at her, and there would be no more excitement when I saw her last night as if I had seen a mouse.

I don't know if it saw something in its heart, and there was still a little disdain in its expression when it looked at her.

Sighed secretly, the little thing is actually quite cute when it looks like this.

No wonder the Yuan family is so rare!

In fact, this cat was just a little used by her, and if it is really the one who should cry the most.

"Second sister-in-law," Cheng Jingxi grinned, as if her back hurt and she had to speak, "this cat...... Is it a day without feeding? ”

Yuan's bitter gourd face was stunned, raised his hand to wipe the tears that didn't flow much, and thought that he gave it a piece of chicken when he came, and when he thought about it, he hesitated a little, nodded and said: "No, the cat was too hateful yesterday, and today I will punish it for not being allowed to eat," Yan added a smile on the basis of the bitter gourd face, and his expression was slightly distorted, "When can I eat, I have to let the princess loosen up!" ”

Cheng Jingxi said in her heart that I was relieved, my stomach was round, and I was ashamed to make up lies and deceive people, when her two eyes were used to gasp? But I just want to give you a step down, hurry up the slope and get out of the donkey with the cage, and climb the pole back!

"Second sister-in-law," Cheng Jingxi saw that her next words were a little annoying, if she pretended to be a little more vigorous, she might not be able to keep up, so she could only hold her waist with one hand, leaned half of her body on the maid, took a deep breath and said, "The cat is not sensible, you just starve it to death, maybe it won't even die!" Besides, I don't have to mess with a cat, do I? This cat looks strange and cute, if the second sister-in-law is not happy to raise it because of this, just send it to my yard to ensure that it is fat and strong. ”

Yuan's face was not very good from the time she started to say the first sentence, but she could still control it, and when the last sentence was finished, she was already about to roll up her sleeves and scratch Cheng Jingxi's face.

Of course, she didn't have the courage to really scratch, so she only dared to secretly peel her skin and cramp and raise the whip in her heart.

She snorted twice without smiling, leaned over and picked up the cat cage, and said unnaturally: "Since the princess has spoken, then I can rest assured," and gave the maid Bi'er a cold face, "Why don't you help the princess to the room quickly!" Don't you see that the princess can't even stand on her feet? ”

Bi'er was used to being scolded, so she didn't care, turned her head to look at Cheng Jingxi, and saw that the latter nodded, so she did it smoothly.

After closing the door, Bi'er began to horn non-stop, "...... Obviously, the second young grandmother herself blocked the road and didn't tell us to go, and in the end, she pushed the responsibility over! I'm! ”

Cheng Jingxi looked at the presumptuous little maid, and wondered if she spoiled her too much on weekdays, and she didn't have the posture of being the master, so she dug out her young lady's temper?

didn't care about her anymore, Cheng Jingxi took a sip of the tea she had just poured, and her eyes sank.

Yuan's coming today should not be voluntary, maybe he came to probe her tone, and use her reaction to judge whether he has exposed something.

But her day should be in vain, not only in vain, but also reluctantly followed their master and servant to play a ridiculous scene with the wrong mouth, and made her beloved cat suffer so much grievance.

Fight with me, see if I'm not mad at you!

The sun was completely hidden, and night fell.

Ye Huaiyu dragged the man with his arm hanging and finally walked to the cottage he said.

It's quite big.

There was a circle at the foot of the mountain, and they felt that the whole mountain behind them was under their control, and their faces were quite big.

The inside of the stockade was dark, there was no light, and there was obviously no figure.

The knife in Ye Huaiyu's hand was raised again, and the five big and three thick men standing on the side showed a helpless expression that didn't match his temperament at all, "You...... Can you put the knife down and talk? ”

Ye Huaiyu didn't speak, just looked at him with his eyes, and suddenly asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Zhang Daniu."

"Hmm."

"What's the matter, doesn't my name sound good?" Zhang Daniu, who had a name, roared in dissatisfaction.

Ye Huaiyu took a knife and knocked on his arm that he couldn't lift, "Don't interrupt." ”

"No," Zhang Daniu was speechless, "I'll tell you the truth, I haven't been recruited for a long time, and I haven't even touched the gate of the stockade!" ”

A little doubt flashed in Ye Huaiyu's heart, "Have you seen your boss?" ”

"No," he said, "Boss, can that be a casual meeting for us?" The people around the boss never showed up, and every time we were asked to rob, they were ordered to do so with a mask! ”

"Masks?"

"Ah," Zhang Daniu did not doubt him, "the mask, the kind that is sold outside." ”

Ye Huaiyu looked back at the cottage that was about to merge with the night, and gradually pulled out a spool in his heart.

led the troops out of Beijing, was attacked, the ambushed people were all covered with masks, the killers at night, the five bandit members during the day, the bandit den.

and gold bars found from them.

Gold bars with the Jokhang seal.

And at that time, they were secretive as if they were afraid that he would find something.

The person who ambushed him covered his face, and the people around the bandit leader also wore it, so can they be counted as the same group, or can the leader of the ambush that day be the same person as Zhang Daniu said?

But who is the mysterious bandit behind the masked man?

"Hey, your knife, knife, get away!"

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard Zhang Daniu's howl like killing a pig, Ye Huaiyu came back to his senses and found that his knife had unknowingly hit his neck.

"I've said everything I should have said, you can't talk without words, right?" Zhang Daniu was terrified.

His thoughts were interrupted, and it was a little difficult to connect again, but he was not in a hurry to get around, and besides, there were still many things that didn't work out here, so he might not be able to figure it out even if he continued to think about it.

"You're still useful, don't worry."

Yan Yu also gave him a reassuring look.

Zhang Daniu wanted to scold, "Get out of your eggs", but peeked at the knife and didn't dare to be angry.
