After dinner, Wang Yuan came to the back garden alone with a small lantern for a walk. Although tonight is the first night that Qingyun'er enters the door, Wang Yuan doesn't want to intensify the conflict, if he gets into Qingyun'er's room as soon as he loses his job, Li Xin'er will inevitably have a thorn in her heart, and maybe there will be some movement.

Walk slowly along the trail to the open space in the back garden, although the light is dim, I still see that the flowers and trees next to the open space are in a mess, and it is too late to tidy up. Looking at the scene in front of you, you can imagine that the battle between the two females in the afternoon must be very intense. Although the two of them were unharmed in the end, these flowers and trees were shot while lying down, these are all flowers and plants that Gongsun Lan personally served, I don't know how Gongsun Lan felt when she saw this mess all over the place after she returned.

Being alone on an autumn night, the air was slightly cold, which made Wang Yuan feel a lot of strange feelings. The sky is full of stars, the moon has not risen, and the sky is exceptionally clean and vast. It has been almost a year since I came to Datang, time has passed in a flash, thinking back to the beginning, and then looking at the present, it is like a feeling of being separated from the world.

Today, he had an unpleasant quarrel with Yang Guozhong, and it was like a boulder pressed on his chest, Wang Yuan knew that if this matter was not handled well, the road forward that he had made up his mind would be difficult to move forward. Yang Guozhong is not a generous person, in this situation, he can't be completely independent from him, and he still needs to rely on his strength. But the current situation is a dilemma, he can't be a dog in Yang Guozhong's mouth, but he can't be a bad friend with him, which is where the difficulty in dealing with this matter lies.

Wang Yuan paced in the back garden for a long time, and before he knew it, the first shift had passed, and he felt a little chill on his body, Wang Yuan turned around and walked out of the garden to the small courtyard where Qingyun'er was placed. As soon as I arrived at the gate of the small courtyard, I suddenly heard the noisy footsteps behind me, and at the corner, two maidservants carried lanterns to illuminate the road, and one of them walked quickly with his hair in a bun.

Wang Yuan knew that it was Li Xin'er when he looked at the figure, but he didn't feel that her head was big, it seemed that she was still staring at herself unrelentingly, and as soon as she saw herself walking towards Qingyun'er's yard, she immediately appeared out, I am afraid that it would be another speech. So he stopped and waited for her to come near.

However, Li Xin'er's expression was a little strange, not like she was coming to find fault, she came to Wang Yuan and glanced at the red lanterns hanging in the small courtyard, and said, "You don't have to look at me like that, I'm not here to spoil your good deeds." ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "Did I say something?" ”

"If you don't say it, I understand what you think, I know I'm jealous, but if I agree to Sister Qing'er's entry, I won't quarrel with you. I came to you because Third Brother Huang came to the house to report that there was something strange outside the gate and asked you to take a look. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "What's weird? ”

"Third Brother Huang said that since you came back in the evening, there was a beggar wandering outside the door, and he didn't want food or copper coins when he was given, but just wandered around at the door. Third Brother Huang ordered people to ignore him, but just now the beggar actually started knocking on the door. When the people asked him what he was doing, he said that he wanted to see the master of our family, and then he said that he had come to you. ”

Wang Yuan was stunned for a moment and said: "What kind of fame, it's really weird, go, go quietly." ”

The two hurried to the courtyard of the outer house, but when they saw the gate open, Da Hei and Huang San stood at the door with three or four servants with sticks in their hands, and when they saw Wang Yuan coming, Huang San withdrew and let Wang Yuan see the person around.

It was indeed a man dressed as a beggar, dressed in tattered clothes, sitting on the threshold with a tattered hat, and his face could not be seen clearly with his head bowed.

Wang Yuan stepped forward, and Wang Dahei hurriedly stopped in front of him to be on guard, for fear that this beggar would be unfavorable to Wang Yuan. Wang Yuan pushed his body away, hugged his fist at the beggar and said, "I am the master of this house, what do you want to see me?" ”

The beggar got up slowly, sorted out the tattered clothes on his body, and intentionally or unintentionally exposed a thing on his waist, Wang Yuan and Li Xin'er glanced at it, and exclaimed at the same time.

Huang San was surprised: "Erlang, what's the matter?" ”

Wang Yuan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, tea and snacks are served in the hall, please let him in." ”

Wang Yuan turned around and returned to the hall, the beggar stood up and swaggered into the courtyard under the watchful eyes of Wang Dahei and others, and came to the hall, Wang Yuan waved his hand and said, "You all stand down." ”

Huang San hurriedly said: "Erlang, this person's identity is unknown, how can he be alone?" ”

"Stand down, I know what to expect." Wang Yuan waved his hand.

Huang San had no choice but to withdraw with Wang Dahei and the servants, and stood outside the hall door ready to rush in at any time. In the hall, the beggar had already bowed to Wang Yuan and said in his mouth: "The subordinate Luo Yimen purple-shirted guard Chang Kunshan has visited the two honorables. ”

Li Xin'er frowned and said, "You are so bold, don't you understand the rules in the door?" He came to our house without being summoned to harass us. You pretend to be a beggar, but you have this purple shirt guard's token sachet hanging on your waist, nondescript, aren't you afraid of being suspected? ”

Chang Kunshan hurriedly said: "The Venerable is angry, and his subordinates only wear the sachet after nightfall, so that the Venerable can recognize my identity." The subordinates didn't want to break the rules, but the subordinates came on orders. Otherwise, how can you know the identities of the two honorable ones with the rank of subordinates. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "Who broke the rules in the door, don't you know that the identities of the two of us are secret?" ”

Chang Kunshan said: "My subordinates came in the name of Li Neishi. ”

With just this sentence, Wang Yuan had nothing to say. It turned out that Li Fuguo sent him here. In the past two months, he ignored Li Fuguo's various secret interviews, and in order to hide himself, he asked Li Xin'er to enter the palace in the middle of the night to see Li Fuguo in the middle of the night to tell him about his hardships, and asked Li Fuguo to find another way to meet, but he didn't expect Li Fuguo to directly send someone to his house to find someone, which was really an unexpected thing.

"What did Servant Lee send you to do? Doesn't he know that by doing so, he is putting us at risk? Wang Yuan said in a low voice.

The subordinates were careful and careful, and they circled outside the house for a long time, confirming that no one was watching, and then they knocked on the door to find someone after entering the watch. The subordinates dare to guarantee that no one knows the identity of the subordinates. Chang Kunshan patted his chest and said.

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "What did Li Neishou ask you to do?" ”

Chang Kunshan took off his shoes, tore open one side of the cloth shoes, took out a crumpled letter from the inside, handed it over, and said, "My subordinates were ordered to send a handwritten letter from Li Neishi. He also brought Li Nei to personally speak. A few words of explanation. ”

Li Xin'er thought the letter was too stinky to accept it, Wang Yuan stretched out his hand to take it, and said, "What did Li Neishou say?" ”

"Li Neishou asked his subordinates to tell His Excellency, he has understood His Excellency's distress, and for His Excellency's consideration, he will no longer make an appointment to meet His Excellency in the future, and his subordinates will send letters directly and deliver news by letter."

Wang Yuan nodded, and finally believed that this Chang Kunshan was sent by Li Fuguo, otherwise he would not have been able to say these words.

"What else did you say?"

"It's gone." Chang Kunshan said, suddenly patted his head and said: "There is another sentence, the subordinates should be damned, I almost forgot." Li Neishou asked his subordinates to tell His Excellency that the matters in the letter must be done immediately, and there is no prevarication. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "Is there anything else?" ”

"It's gone, it's really gone, just write a few words on it and let me take it back to the palace to restore my life."

Wang Yuan nodded, pointed to the hot tea and said, "You can do it yourself, I'll take a look at this letter." ”

Chang Kunshan agreed, hunched over to the desk and sat down to drink tea, Wang Yuan moved closer to the candlelight, opened the crumpled letter, took out a crumpled piece of paper from it, and read the letter carefully with Chang Kunshan on his back.

Under the candlelight, Wang Yuan's expression changed several times, and Li Xin'er looked in her eyes and asked in a low voice, "What?" ”

Wang Yuan said lightly: "It's nothing? He turned his head to look at Chang Kunshan and said, "I'll write a few words for you to take back to your life." ”

Chang Kunshan arched his hand and said: "There is Lao Zun." ”

Wang Yuan took pen and ink, hurriedly wrote a few words, stuffed them into an envelope, and sealed his mouth. It was handed over to Chang Kunshan and said: "You go back to your life quickly, don't let Li Nei wait in a hurry, the tea will be drunk another day." ”

Chang Kunshan hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Respect the order, the subordinates have retired." ”

Wang Yuan nodded, opened the hall door and stood on the steps of the hall door to watch Chang Kunshan go out, turned around and kicked away the wooden chair at his feet, and scolded in his mouth: "This dog eunuch, at this time, he came to join in the fun and asked me to do such a thing for him, completely forgetting the original agreement, isn't this forcing me?" ”

Li Xin'er hurriedly said: "What's wrong?" ”

Wang Yuan stuffed the paper ball in the palm of his hand into Li Xin'er's hand and said, "See for yourself." ”

Li Xin'er unfolded the paper ball, with a few words on it, neither titled nor signed: "Recently, Yang Guozhong acted recklessly, angered the Li Party, and united officials to impeach Guozhong. His Royal Highness thought that the situation was commendable, and the two families of Yang and Li fled to fight each other, and His Royal Highness could sit firmly and make a profit. You need to immediately report the secrets of the Yang Party, the affairs of personnel and property, and the misdeeds you have done, so that Your Highness can coordinate the leakage and fuel the dispute between Yang and Li. It shall be burned immediately after reading and shall not be violated. ”
