"You were just like that, aren't you afraid that he will resist?" Mu Xiyuan looked at Ye Liangbei, who was holding him into his arms, and asked in confusion.

Ye Liangbei lifted her bangs, lowered his head and gently kissed her smooth forehead, and smiled: "He won't." If he still had blood in his heart, he would definitely not give in so easily. Unfortunately, he has too many things to consider, and it is possible that his ambitions have not yet been realized. So, even if it's not his fault, he must admit it! ”

"Why?" Mu Xiyuan asked casually. Suddenly, I felt that the longer I stayed by my beloved's side, the less I would be able to use my brain to think about problems...

Ye Liangbei rubbed his temples helplessly, and said softly: "I'll tell you about this matter slowly, but I think we can get our business done first." ”

"What's the matter? Is it important for you to explain to me? Mu Xiyuan pursed her mouth unhappily.

Ye Liangbei glanced around and found that there was no one around. He laughed evilly, lifted the mask on his face, revealed the evil lips, and hugged the back of Mu Xiyuan's head with one hand...

"What are you doing! Don't mess around! Not... Hmm..."

Again, for a long time.

"You're too improper!" Mu Xiyuan panted slightly and protested. However, what she wanted to ask seemed to have been forgotten...

"Ahem..."Ye Liangbei's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he looked up at the sky and pretended to be serious, "According to the time, big brother... It's time to get to Huadu. ”

"Huh?" Mu Xiyuan frowned.

At this time, outside the gate of Huadu City.

Behind three tall horses, a luxurious carriage was pulled. And all around the carriage were soldiers from the Northern Capital.

The people around were noisily watching the excitement.

Some people who didn't know and didn't know for some reason poked the people who were watching the excitement next to them and asked, "Excuse me, who is this person returning to the city?" Why is the pomp and circumstance so big? ”

"You don't know?!" The man's eyes widened.

The second monk was puzzled by the rhetorical question that asked the question, "Should I know?" ”

“... Actually, I don't know, it's just to have a good time. ”

"Cut..."

Suddenly, an old man turned around and persuaded, "Two young men... Don't make any noise, ahem..."

One of them asked, "Uncle, take over." Do you know who is in the carriage? ”

"Of course I do," said the old man, curling his goatee and looking at the carriage with respect, "do you know why you are still standing here watching the commotion, instead of being drafted?" ”

"Why?" The other asked curiously.

It's also strange to say, it's almost the day of being conscripted, but no officials from the government came to inquire...

"Let's not talk about this for now," said the old man in a low voice, "you don't find that this year's tax is higher than last year's

Do you get less? ”

That's right... The two looked at each other, puzzled. Why is that?

"Please also ask the old man to give me some advice."

The old man smiled slightly, "It's all thanks to the lord in the carriage..."

The two of them were convinced of the old man's words, and the people around them who were unaware of the excitement also asked the old man and the names of the people in the carriage.

"He... It's called Shu Yeqiu, although he looks a little ordinary, but he is a good official who really thinks about the people..."The old man seemed to be pondering something, and the people around him didn't dare to disturb, so they all scattered and whispered.

Book leaves autumn...

Everyone nodded in understanding.

The corners of the old man's mouth tilted slightly, and he quietly left the crowd. Only a few people noticed it, but they didn't go away.

If you stand on a high place, you will find that there are one or two old men in the crowd, and after saying the name of Shu Yeqiu, when everyone is pondering, they quietly leave.

It's just one or two people, so what?

People just know that that person is an official and has sought tangible benefits for everyone. But he didn't think deeply: how could only so many people know about such a confidential matter? Even if it's an old man, shouldn't it?

But then again, those old men are telling the truth. Everyone's life is better, and it is natural to thank the people who made everyone better in the first place.

In the shadow of an alley, there were two dozen people gathered together.

If you look closely, aren't they the old people who have left? What do they get together for?

"Is it done?"

One of the old men's voices turned into the voice of a middle-aged man.

The rest of the people didn't say anything, and they all nodded their heads.

"Shadow, you said this time, why did Ye Xiang let us do this?" Suddenly, a man asked, "That's not the case." The first time I did this kind of thing, I always felt that my conscience could not pass. ”

The old man, who was called Shadow, the first to speak, glanced at the crowd and saw that their eyes were full of doubt. So he said slowly: "You have done so many things for Ye Xiang, which time did he do it wrong?" Ye Xiang is like this, he has his own reason. Owl, if the next time I hear you ask about such a thing, you know the consequences! ”

"The subordinates don't dare!" Xiao quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

Ying Yi patted everyone's shoulders one by one and continued, "Don't tear the mask for the time being, there will be some use in the future." ”

"What about you?" Another asked, "You're going to take care of that little girl again?" ”

Shadow nodded helplessly.

"I can't stand that little girl." The man shuddered, "It's a little devil, and he makes some jokes from time to time." If it weren't for the fact that I always remember that she was Ye Xiang's woman..."

"Enough!" Shadow shouted angrily, "She to."

After me, and your mother! Clean your mouths for me! If Ye Xiang knows what you think! Night, you know it yourself! ”

"Yes!"

"Brother Ying, haven't you always called Ye Xiang the eldest young master? Why did you suddenly change your tune. ”

"..."Ying was silent for a while, "I've been with you for a long time, and I'll call Ye Xiang by the way." ”

Hahahaha—

More than two dozen people instantly coaxed.

"That's it! Disperse the action! Ying turned his voice old again, "It's not enough for so many people to know the great achievements that Ye Xiang has done!" Far from enough! The Northern Palace has implemented it, but I want to put the credit on Mu Junlan's head, I will never allow it! ”

"We won't allow it either!"

"Action!"

...

As soon as Ying returned to the house where Mu Xiyao was, he heard Mu Xiyao talking to herself there: "Are you back?" ”

He broke out in a cold sweat. Don't... Does she know I've been out?

However, as the Shadow No. 1 guard beside Ye Shuqiu, what winds and waves have you not seen? He immediately adjusted his emotions and replied in a low voice: "Miss, I have always been by your side and have never left." ”

"Really?" Mu Xiyao looked at the void where the voice came out with some disbelief, "Then tell me, it's so lively outside, what happened?" ”

"Outside—" Shadow almost replied. After all, he had already subconsciously regarded Mu Xiyao as half of the master. But soon, Shadow reacted, "I don't know what happened outside. ”

Mu Xiyao looked out the window boredly and muttered, "Oh... Alas, it's so boring here, and every time I want to go out, you're caught. I wonder what the hell is going on outside...", she leaned out of the window, and as if remembering something, she shrank back again.

She lowered her head and fell on the bed with a "poof" away from the window. "Boring... It's good that you taught me all kinds of book stuff and those etiquette... The head is dead. ”

Shadow just stood still, not moving.

Manners? Book?

He was silent. Where do I know the etiquette of a woman, I don't like to read, and my brothers don't like to read. I like to read books, and I know only one person... Don't...

"Hey, why aren't you as active as you were when you taught me books before?" Mu Xiyao's eyes stared straight at the beams on the roof, "How gentle you were at that time." Every movement, every stroke, seems to have feelings. But now you—" she frowned, and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, Miss Ben is blunt, you're like a piece of wood now." ”

Belch...

Shadow was even more silent.

He was more sure who that person was.

You're too busy, sir...

Goo-goo—

Suddenly, a white dove fell from the window.

Mu Xiyao raised her head and muttered, "Which pigeon flew in?" Shadow, go chase it away! Miss Ben is in a bad mood and doesn't have the heart to play with these little animals. ”

"Yes." When Shadow saw the pigeon, he knew that it was a carrier pigeon.

But who will send the note to him?

When he quietly removed the roll of paper from the pigeon's leg, and after letting the pigeon go, he spread it out and saw that there were only two words on it:

Returnable.

Shadow breathed a sigh of relief and showed her figure. He asked Mu Xiyao, who was lying down casually, "Miss, you can go out now." Do you want to send you home? ”

"Back... Mu Xiyao was stunned for a moment, immediately straightened her waist, sat on the bed in a proper manner, and asked nervously: "You... What did you say? Miss Ben... No, I can go out? Don't have to stay in this dark room anymore?! ”

Shadow frowned.

He looked around. This house... Only the place where Mu Xiyao rests is sunny, and the rest of the places can't see the sun. Murky... As if she wasn't wrong.

Mu Xiyao knelt on the bed and spread her hands.

"Miss, what are you doing?" The movie fan asked confusedly.

Mu Xiyao put down her hand angrily and lifted her waist, and looked at him strangely, "What do you say, from here to Mufu, how can you say that there is also a distance of more than half of Huadu?" You just want Miss Ben to go back like this, so, like this? ”

"And then?" Shadow was even more confused. What do you use without having to go? We've always been on the go. I think when the eldest young master trained us, he had to carry a big stone to run the mountain road. Isn't this more than half of Huadu? What's wrong with walking?

"And then! And then are you going to go back with Miss Ben or carry Miss Ben back, or call a carriage?! Mu Xiyao shouted even louder.

Ying Gong replied respectfully: "Miss, men and women are not kissed. ”

"Miss Ben knows! But I'm a young lady! There's no way you're going to let me just walk down the street... Belch! Mu Xiyao suddenly felt that the back of her neck was hit by something, her eyes turned black, and she fell on the bed.

Ying didn't look at Mu Xiyao who was unconscious. He looked at the black shadow standing beside Mu Xiyao, and followed the sunlight to see that ordinary face, "Genus... My subordinates have seen Lord Ye! ”

"Get up, I don't mean to blame you."

Ye Shuqiu looked helplessly at Mu Xiyao, who had passed out in a coma, and muttered to himself: "Such a big person, do you want to be hugged by someone after you are in a hurry, are you ashamed?" Forgot what taught you these days? Alas..."

Belch... Shadow was speechless. It's really you...

"Gone!" Ye Shuqiu picked up Mu Xiyao, who had been unconscious, opened the door and walked out of the house, jumping to the roof.
