Chapter 27: The Banquet
"Someone is secretly protecting Ye Shengmao behind his back?"
Lu Lu was a little confused, glanced at Jia Ping next to him, and then turned his head to look at the hundred miles of flying geese.
"As the grain and grass officer of the Wangyaling Campaign, although Ye Shengmao can't control the time and progress of the grain and grass, he is clear about the mastery of time."
Jia Ping said, glancing at Baili Feiyan, Baili Feiyan nodded.
"Some people are afraid that Ye Shengmao will enter the edict prison and will not be able to bear the torture, so he will tell the truth about why the grain and grass will not be in place in time in the Battle of Wangyaling, so they have been protecting him and protecting him from a military master to a household secretary."
After the hundred miles of flying geese finished speaking, his eyes were deep, and his eyebrows were covered with frost.
"Young master, the person behind him, why don't you kill people and kill people? As long as Ye Shengmao is dead, a dead person will no longer speak out about the events of the year. ”
Lu Lu couldn't figure it out and asked Baili Feiyan.
Baili Feiyan glanced at Lu Lu and smiled coldly.
"It's easy to kill a person, but it's easy to destroy the entire family behind this person, and the people who are related to the side branches?"
Before Baili Feiyan finished speaking, Jia Ping glanced at Lu Lu again, and then Baili Feiyan said:
"If you can do the grain and grass account book that you handle for four or five years without being discovered, such a cunning person will make people jealous, and I am afraid that he will transfer the evidence of the mastermind behind the scenes to anyone in the clan."
When Lu Lu heard this, he suddenly realized.
Ye Shengmao's family is not only the husband and wife and their daughter, but also the king of Shunan, who is stationed in the southern Xinjiang of Bashu, is his siblings.
And Chen Chongqing, the general of Weiguo who was guarding the northern border at that time, and the king of Shunan was a brother-in-law, and the pillars of these two towns and countries were brothers-in-law, and the current imperial history Zhongcheng, the general of Long Xiang was a brother-in-law.
General Chen, who was guarding the northern border, although he was killed in the Battle of Wangyaling, would his family have no survivors?
Thinking of this, Lu Lu glanced at the young master in front of him.
Several families and their side branches, and all the people in the house, I am afraid that there are more than 10,000 people, such a huge number, it is impossible to completely extinguish the mouth, the slightest carelessness, will expose the whereabouts that have been hidden for many years, and even force the dog to jump over the wall in a hurry, take the initiative to hand over the evidence, and point out the culprit.
This night, Baili Feiyan and the three of them talked for a long time in the secret room, and when they came out, the starling had already seen that the moon was already hanging in the sky.
After the others left, Baili Feiyan glanced at the young man who had been standing for a long time, and asked the starling to go to bed quickly.
Starling didn't say a word, he jumped to bed, fell asleep, and after a while, Baili Feiyan had heard the sound of starling's well-proportioned breathing.
Baili Feiyan was lying on the bed, his eyes closed, and he seemed to have fallen asleep, and no one knew that his churning chest was full of waves.

Mu Yunyin feasted friends today, and the main dish was roast duck with the flavor of Yunnan's hometown.
The people in the house specially asked the people in the house to pick pine needles from the mountain in the morning when the rain and dew on the pine tips had not been dried by the wind, and spread the fragrant pine needles around the oven.
Then, inside and outside the fat duck that has been washed and cleaned, knead the secret spices of the house and marinate for half an hour.
Before going off the oven, brush with soy sauce and honey.
The fat duck roasted in this way is not only golden in color, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, fat but not greasy, but also exudes a natural fragrance.
The spring cake wrapped in roast duck is made as thin as a cicada's wings, and the green onion is cut as thin as a hair.
On top of that, the dipping sauce is a sweet noodle sauce made in the house.
In order to confirm someone's true identity, Mu Yunyin asked Huang Li Kang to ripen peanuts and refine them for later use.
The first to come was the two brothers and sisters of Mingyu Mingyue of the Yong'an Hou Mansion, after the two of them saw Mu Yunyin's sister and third sister, they went to the back to meet the old lady, and the two brothers and sisters brought the gummies that the old man liked to eat.
"Haha, I'm here, is everyone else coming?"
Cheng Ciyuan of the Ningguo Mansion was still smiling like that, and before anyone arrived, the laughter had already been heard.
"Brother and sister Mingyu are chatting with my grandmother in my grandmother's room."
When Cheng Ciyuan heard this, he immediately smiled and said:
"Then I'll go and say hello to the old lady."
Mu Yunyin hurriedly asked the third sister to take Cheng Gongzi to the backyard.
Mu Yunyin was drinking tea while looking at the figures of the people who were busy before and after, but he was secretly snickering in his heart, today, that person still hasn't shown his true face?
Your appearance has changed, but there are some things that can't be changed, Mu Yunyin thought, blinked mischievously, and two pink peach blossoms appeared on her snow-white face.
Huang Li is wearing a refreshing dress today, a set of royal blue skirts, which makes a pair of beautiful eyes clearer.
This is the Luo skirt that Mu Yunyin specially selected for her.
"Girl, that starling, you won't learn from me to wear the same color today, will you?"
Mu Yunyin thought for a while, not sure, because that person had the same preference for blue as her. Mu Yunyin thought about this, and glanced at his blue background floral ribbed skirt.
"Girl, add some tea."
Huang Li looked at the tea bowl in Mu Yunyin's hand, there was more water and less tea, and he was about to add it with a teapot.
"Girl, you chewed the tea leaves?"
Mu Yunyin glanced at Huang Li and waved his hand to indicate that there was no need to add tea.
Looking down at the tea bowl in front of her, in the crisp tea, a handsome and graceful figure appeared in front of her.
The person whose eyebrows are like spring mountains and distant daisies, and whose eyes are like warm and clear springs, looked at Mu Yunyin warmly.
Mu Yunyin looked out of the door from time to time, but no familiar footsteps came.
It's dinner time, but the man hasn't appeared yet.
"Baili Gongzi and Brother Leng haven't come yet?"
Cheng Ciyuan, who visited Grandmother Wang, and Mingyu brothers and sisters came out, and when they saw that they had not yet come, Cheng Ciyuan, who loved the lively city, asked Mingyu unconsciously.
"On the road, there are many of them, and the carriage may be slow."
If you don't come, maybe you think too much, Mu Yunyin feels uncomfortable.
If that person is really that person, then his current identity, his cousin, and his grandmother, are not worth his visit?
Aunts and grandmothers usually eat alone and never eat with juniors, unless her grandmother asks her to come over, Mu Yunyin will go to accompany her grandmother.
Seeing that figure, he didn't come for a long time, Mu Yunyin angrily beckoned everyone to take a seat, love didn't come.
"Girl, another guest has arrived."
The next person came to report, and Mu Yunyin's heart chuckled.
Mu Yunyin and Huang Li went out to see that Starling had already gotten out of the carriage, and after the carriage sent them, they turned the horse's head and left.
Starling was dressed in royal blue clothes, exactly the same color as Huang Li's skirt, and Huang Li cried out dissatisfied.
"Girl, he's got his heart."
A hundred miles of flying geese dressed in white, followed by two people in royal blue short robes, carrying gift boxes, appeared in front of Mu Yunyin.
"Baili Gongzi, Brother Leng, it's too late, three glasses of wine."
As soon as Cheng Ciyuan saw someone coming, he immediately poured wine with a smile, just like a master.
"Wait a minute, everyone, I'll go and see the old lady first."
Baili Feiyan said, glancing at Mu Yunyin, meaning to lead the way.
"I'll take you."
The third sister, Mu Yunlan, took the initiative to bring someone to her grandmother's room with a quick talk.
Mu Yunlan, who doesn't have any acquaintances or friends in Jiankang City, don't mention how happy she is today, so many young people came to the mansion at once, and the deserted mansion was a lot more lively all of a sudden.
"Starlings sit down and eat, just let the two of them go."
Cheng Ciyuan said with a smile to the starling who was dressed in royal blue.
Starling raised his eyes and glanced at Huang Li's royal blue Luo skirt and muttered.
"My shirt was chosen for me by my son-in-law."
Immediately, Starling's face was a little red and swollen, and he chased after the person in front of him.
