From the time Ji Yan left home to report to Zheng He in Tianxi Temple, to the time he returned home after a meeting, it was only a little more than an hour, but Ruan Xiaoyi's house had already been found.

Ruan Xiaoyi's house in the capital is very close to Ji Yan's house, but listening to him, the area is much larger, and they are also going to buy two more maids to serve, it is really the body of the young master, the life of the young master, and the life of the young master, and the life of others like Ji Yan, a child born in a poor family only has the life of envy.

It is said that there is a large mansion, a patio larger than the entire house of Ji Yan, four wings on both sides, and a lobby and hall in the middle.

After listening to their introduction, Ji Yan only had one emotion: It's good to be a rich man.

He instructed Ruan Xiaoyi and told him that he would go to Tianxi Temple early tomorrow morning to meet Wang Jinghong, the deputy supervisor of the project, and planned to go out.

Ruan Xiaoyi stopped Ji Yan and asked him when he would be able to take him to see Mei Yuning.

Ji Yan stopped, originally he was going to go to the Horse Mansion, but he felt that he had been hurt by this child too many times along the way, so he felt that he would also take this opportunity to temper this young man, let Ruan Xiaoyi experience some setbacks, and let him know the sinister way of the world and the many routines of adults.

Ji Yan thought for a while and said, "You don't have to worry about this, I will go to Nanzhen Fusi to see when Captain Mei has time to see you." Don't worry, I promised that I would be able to do it. ”

Ruan Xiaoyi was relieved at this time, and swaggered out with a family member to buy a maid, leaving another family member to carry the luggage to their newly rented yard.

Ruan Xiaoyi left, Ji Yan was not so anxious and was about to go out, he sometimes inadvertently wanted to avoid this child, it was estimated that the main reason was that he was complained about too much, so he felt very tired when he saw him.

Ji Yan remembered that when he entered the city in the morning, he passed by a market or something, which seemed to be very lively, so he asked the remaining family: "When we entered the city, there was a market that I saw was very lively, and there were many girls shopping there, what were they doing, brother, do you know?" ”

The family was a little surprised at first, thinking that you are not from the capital, why did you ask me this stranger, but he did know what those people were doing, and he had been walking the rivers and lakes for a long time, and he exercised his temperament to deal with things without being surprised, so he smiled and said: "Oh, it should be the girls in the capital who are buying the Qixi Festival for the festival, isn't there a gathering on the night of Qixi Festival?" ”

Tanabata Festival?!

Ji Yan slapped his head and smiled awkwardly: "Look at my brain, I'm so busy and confused, I forgot that it's almost Valentine's Day." ”

After that, he didn't wait for the family to say anything, and hurriedly ran out of the door.

Only the family Ding was even more surprised to stay in place, and said to himself: "What does Qixi have to do with lovers? Why did Ji Gongzi say Valentine's Day? ”

Ji Yan trotted all the way, the wind was blowing under his feet, the pace was brisk, and he was excited, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many pedestrians on the street, it was estimated that he would have to dance.

The spring breeze is proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day.

This is Ji Yan's mood at the moment.

He grew so big, every time it didn't matter whether it was Chinese Valentine's Day or foreign Valentine's Day, or other Chinese festivals that were celebrated as Valentine's Day, he was always alone, sadly watching others go in and out of pairs, and the dog food didn't know how many times he vomited.

Now is the closest he will get to unlocking the achievement of "Valentine's Day No Longer Lonely" in his two lifetimes.

He has concern, worry, and Mei Yuning, Ji Yan believes that Mei Yuning must have the same feelings for him, thinking about this, he feels that every pore on his body is dripping with joy, and every hair is about to float.

Ji Yan happily came to the door of the Horse Mansion, but found that something was wrong.

He was not a stranger to the Horse Mansion, he had been here a few times before, and he remembered that when he came before, the door of the mansion was wide open during the day, and a few soldiers stood guard, and they also passed the word inside.

It was only afternoon, and there was still some time before sunset, but the gate of the Horse Mansion was closed, and there was no one at the door.

Ji Yan was only surprised for a moment when he saw this bleak scene in front of him, he immediately calmed down, remembered what Mei Yuning had said to her, and also remembered that Mei Yuma was still in the whirlpool of power struggle at this time, and was deeply feared by Zhu Di.

He looked around, saw no suspicious person, and paced to the door, and buckled the big black wooden door.

As soon as Ji Yan slammed the door twice, there was a response inside, and a man asked inside, "Who?" ”

Ji Yan reported his name, and the door slowly opened a small opening with a creaking sound.

An old face looked Ji Yan up and down from inside the door, and said softly: "There is a word in the house, if Ji Tong is here, then ask him to come and knock on the door again at the small door of the East Courtyard at the time of Chen." ”

After that, he said how to get to the small gate of the east courtyard, and then without saying a word, he closed the door directly.

It was more than seven o'clock in the evening, and now the sky was still bright, and it was estimated that there would be one or two hours, so Ji Yan had to walk around the Fuma Mansion, and found a restaurant and ordered a salted duck to eat.

finally survived until the sun began to set, so he hurriedly tidied up his clothes, put away the gifts prepared for Mei Yuning, and went to the direction of the east courtyard of the Horse Mansion.

Finding the small door, Ji Yan looked around vigilantly again, and then knocked on the door.

A strange girl's voice came out and asked, "Who is knocking on the door?" ”

Ji Yan naturally answered truthfully, the door soon opened, and a person dressed as a maid directly pulled Ji Yan into the door, and then looked around quickly and closed the door.

Although it took a lot of Zhou Zhang to enter the door, Ji Yan who entered the door no longer cared about or felt troublesome, because he saw Mei Yuning again.

After a farewell of two months, the last time I saw her was on the edge of the Yangtze River, she was on the boat, she was riding a horse on the shore, and the two could only look at each other without saying a word.

At this moment, she is standing in front of herself, wearing a light saro skirt, a silver phoenix hairpin, bright eyes, and a handsome face.

Looking at each other, Ji Yan saw that Mei Yuning's talking eyes were also looking at him, and suddenly his heart was numb, making him feel that his body was a little weak, and he couldn't stand anymore.

The maid looked at these two people, covered her mouth and said to Mei Yuning with a smile: "Miss, I'll go to the garden gate to watch, and don't talk too long." After saying that, he quietly retreated.

Ji Yan came back to his senses and realized that he had come to the garden of the Horse Mansion now, and he had been here before, but he didn't notice that there was a small door that opened sideways, remembering what he saw at the door in the afternoon, he spoke first: "One month or two, why has the atmosphere changed so much, why is your family so cautious now?" Is something wrong? Are you okay? ”

Mei Yuning comforted him: "I'm fine, but a lot of things have happened in the past two months." ”

After speaking, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at Ji Yan and continued: "Do you remember Master Li of the Criminal Department who I met once before?" ”

Ji Yan asked, "Is that the one who was in the prison of the Criminal Department that day?" ”

Mei Yuning nodded, then lowered his head and sighed, "He died, and his home was also raided." ”

Ji Yan was shocked, this was the first time he had seen someone whose home was raided, and he hurriedly asked, "What crime did he commit?" ”

Mei Yuning sneered and said: "He didn't commit any crime, if he wants to say that he is guilty, then what is the crime of committing chaos, he just did what a loyal minister should do." ”

After saying this, she changed her tone and said abruptly: "It's a pity that he was accidentally caught with the handle, so he was denounced by the villain and lost his life." ”

Ji Yan asked, "Did that implicate you?" ”

Mei Yuning knew that he cared about him, and said softly: "No, my father is very cautious, but after Lord Li sent it, he is more careful now." ”

After saying this, the two of them were speechless for a while, and Ji Yan didn't know how to continue this opening, and invited her to spend Qixi Festival with him.

Fortunately, Mei Yuning quickly adjusted her mood, she smiled and looked at the mail, and asked, "How was your trip to Shandong?" ”

Ji Yan then took out a large set of bunny toys bought in the Qingzhou market, and said: "The trip to Shandong is indescribable, I brought you a gift, I don't know if you like it." ”

Because Mei Yuning said that he was born in the twentieth year of Hongwu, and that year was the Year of the Rabbit, Ji Yan passed by the stall that day and bought such a gift.

Mei Yuning obviously hadn't seen this thing, she was very happy, she held it in her hand, pinched and kneaded, it seems that no matter what era, it will not be wrong to give a little girl a fluffy cute toy.

Then Ji Yan struck while the iron was hot, and said to Mei Yuning, who was playing with the rabbit with her eyes shining: "The day after tomorrow is the Qixi Festival, I heard that there are activities on the night of the Qixi Festival, it is very lively, do you want to go with me?" ”

Mei Yuning seemed to be taken aback when she heard Ji Yan's words, she turned her head to look at Ji Yan, and said with a little surprise: "Qixi Festival? With you? Why should I spend it with you on the Qixi Festival? ”
