It's almost four shifts.

In the capital late at night, the streets are very quiet.

The handlebar-style driving is stable and does not speed up because the road is clear.

Although it was not fast, the sound of the car rolling over the road was still clear, and even, it was too quiet outside, and the movement seemed a little louder.

Huo Yixiao leaned against the carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate.

It was supposed to be a difficult time, but it was probably because the green plum was too exciting, and he didn't feel sleepy.

As the carriage passed through, Huo Yixiao slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Wen Yan on the side.

It was just a casual glance, but he couldn't easily look away, he sensed that Wen Yan's mood was wrong.

The curtain on the side of the carriage was lifted by Wen Yan a small corner, and her head leaned against the window, looking out.

There was no expression on her face, and those bright eyes were like a deep pool of water in the dark, I don't know how deep it is, let alone what it looks like.

Wen Yan was distracted.

The sourness of the green plum, the sweetness of the persimmon, all the tastes that made her frown and smile before, are isolated from her now.

Huo Yixiao looked at Wen Yan and wondered in his heart, what was the little fox looking at and thinking, so that he could have such a look.

In the streets of the capital in the fourth watch, in addition to the guards who passed by the husband and the patrol city, there were only wild cats and wild dogs left, what flowers can be seen?

It's not as interesting as watching ebony.

"Wen Yan." Huo Yixiao called.

Wen Yan turned his head, looked at Huo Yixiao for some reason, and as soon as his hand loosened, the curtain fell.

Huo Yixiao was just about to say something, when he heard hurried footsteps outside, the handlebar "called" to slow down, and the carriage slowly stopped.

Wen Yan looked puzzled.

Huo Yixiao motioned for her not to make a sound, and raised his voice to ask, "Why did you stop?" ”

Yin Lei sat on the edge of the handlebar and said through the curtain: "Master, I met the commander of the Jingwei envoy." ”

Huo Yixiao understood.

Although there is no curfew in the capital, it is not common for carriages to be swaying on the streets at this hour, and it is common for guards to stop and ask.

Huo Yixiao rushed to Wen Yan and compared with the old lady.

Wen Yanyi, bent down, and by the way, pressed the old lady who didn't understand.

Sure that he couldn't see the situation in the carriage clearly, Huo Yixiao slowly picked a corner of the side curtain and glanced at it indifferently.

"Who's in the lead?" Huo Yixiao asked.

"Fourth watch, where are you going?" A young man walked out of the guards, serious and cautious, holding a lantern to the curtain, and seeing Huo Yixiao's face clearly, he was slightly stunned, and said in surprise, "Fourth son? ”

"It's me," Huo Yixiao's voice was full of impatience, "I can't sleep, can't I take a carriage in the city?" ”

The young man looked dish-faced.

Can he say no?

Not to mention that it is in the city, even if the fourth prince wants to go to the imperial city to ride a horse in the middle of the night, as long as the emperor does not speak, no one can care.

"We asked according to the rules, but we didn't expect to meet the fourth son......" the young man said.

"The duty is, it should be like this," Huo Yixiao said, "I have asked, can I go?" ”

The young man hurriedly took two steps back: "Please." ”

Huo Yixiao lowered the curtain and waved the whip in the handlebar style.

It wasn't until the carriage was out of sight that a few of the guards spoke to me.

"That is the fourth son? It's the first time I've seen you. ”

"It is rumored that he is very difficult to get along with, relying on the favor of the emperor and Concubine Huo, he doesn't even take the prince in his eyes, and he will lose that the leader will recognize him, otherwise a few of us will be stunned, ask questions and ask questions, and ask the fourth prince in a hurry, I am afraid that the errand will not be guaranteed."

"I can't enjoy the rumors, doesn't the fourth prince still say that we are 'duty'?"

"That's because the leader knows him, and he was born with a different face, and the fourth son doesn't necessarily say anything."

"That is, who doesn't sleep at night and wanders around the city except us on errands? The four princes were so strange that they couldn't sleep and came to ride around in the carriage. ”

"Hey, boss, I heard others say that the fourth son is a dragon, is it true?"

The young man glanced at everyone and said coldly, "What nonsense? Aren't you afraid that your errand will be unsafe? ”

Seeing this, everyone didn't dare to ask any more questions, and followed the young man to continue his inspection.

On the other hand, Wen Yan and the old lady in the carriage still sat up straight again.

The place in the car is not big, and I don't feel crowded when I sit, but just in order to avoid it, I realized that the place is cramped.

Wen Yan moved his wrist and asked softly, "Who was that person just now?" The sound sounds familiar. ”

Huo Yixiao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Xu Qirun." ”

Wen Yan was stunned.

Xu Qirun, the second son of Hui Kangbo, was the commander of the Jingwei Command Envoy in Mengyin.

After all, he was born in Jiangmen, and unlike those who are in a vacant position, he is very attentive in official affairs.

is not very old, but he is also like a fish in water in commanding the envoys.

In the previous life, when Wen Yan re-entered the capital, Hui Kangbo and the prince had died in battle, and the title fell to Xu Qirun.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and at a night banquet in the imperial city, he injured his abdomen when rescuing the driver and died young.

Wen Yan was also present at that time and heard Xu Qirun speak.

Outside the carriage just now, Xu Qirun's voice was much younger than later, so Wen Yan was familiar with it, but for a while, he didn't remember the identity of the other party.

Huo Yixiao saw Wen Yan thoughtfully, and pursed his lips tightly.

Among the little fox's targets, there is really a Wellcomber Mansion.

Previously, he asked Xuan Zai about his friendship with the son of Wellkang for no reason, but now he felt that Xu Qirun's voice was familiar.

In the past few years, Xu Qirun has been either in the army or in the city, occasionally entering the palace a few times, also in the previous dynasty, and has no contact with the harem and Cheng'an at all, where did Wen Yan come from?

It's weird!

Seeing that Wen Yan still looked thoughtful, Huo Yixiao's fingers lightly tapped his arm and said, "Wen Yan." ”

Wen Yan came back to his senses, nodded suddenly in realization, and asked, "Before I met them, what did Xiao Ye call me for?" ”

Huo Yixiao's fingers paused.

At that time, he wanted to ask, it was dark outside, what flowers did Wen Yan see.

Now, that doesn't matter.

He looked straight at Wen Yan and said in a deep voice: "I'm thinking about Huikangbo Mansion and Fang Qichuan. ”

Wen Yan blinked.

This is a misunderstanding.

She only quietly questioned that Huo Yixuan had drunk with the Xu and Fang families who did not have much friendship before her death, but she never counted the enmity between the Pingxi Hou Mansion and her own family on the heads of the two of them.

It's just hard to explain.

"Actually......" Wen Yan was thinking about how to explain it, but was interrupted by Huo Yixiao.

Huo Yixiao asked her: "Bi Zhi'an's niece's surname is Fang Mingrao, do you know who she is Fang Qichuan?" I didn't deal with the Fang family, but I wanted to help them arrest Qiu Xian, why bother? Render good for evil? ”

After saying these four words, Huo Yixiao himself laughed.

The little fox is bright from head to toe, and it doesn't match these four words at all.
