Gloomy and gloomy (3)
The sky was gradually dark, in case Qi took Feng'er's hand and entered an inn, but he never thought that he would meet an old acquaintance.
"Daddy, there's a tail behind us. It's so annoying, Feng'er doesn't like it. Feng'er raised her little head and pouted.
In case Qi smiled gently: "Is it okay for Daddy to drive him away?" ”
"Okay." Feng'er replied in a milky voice.
"Shopkeeper, come to a good guest room, prepare some more meals, and send them to the guest room." In case Qi was talking to the shopkeeper in his mouth, the hand behind him did not stop, and with a flick of his middle finger, the man who had just stepped into the inn was already facing the sky with a bang, struggling and wailing on the ground, and the movement was so loud that everyone was shocked.
"Childe, are you alright?" The person entered the door with Yanlingzhan, the man fell to the ground, Xiao Ye was startled, and hurriedly asked Yanlingzhan.
Yan Lingzhan looked at the struggling man at his feet, his face calm. In case Qi Na snapped his fingers, Yanling Zhan could see it clearly. "No problem." Yan Lingzhan didn't go to look at Xiao Ye, but stared at the cabinet in front of Wan Yiqi. After that, he said in a cold voice: "The Lord of the Ten Thousand Pavilion has good internal strength, but he doesn't know why. ”
"Yo, it turned out to be an old man." In case he turned around and saw that it was Yan Lingzhan standing next to that person, he instantly understood, he didn't notice that there were other people next to him when he attacked that person, presumably Yan Lingzhan must have misunderstood that this matter was directed at him.
"Are you tired of being alive? Dare to rush into the child. Xiao Ye listened to Yanlingzhan's words and realized that someone had done it deliberately.
"I'm here to apologize, but I haven't seen it for a while." In case Qi took Feng'er and walked over, arching his hand.
"You tail, so annoying, aren't you tired of following me and my father for so long? Next time, I'll let Daddy turn you into a real tail. Feng'er looked at the people on the ground and said, her voice was immature and beautiful, which provoked Yanlingzhan to take a few more looks.
"Don't get out of here yet." In case Qi's tone is not good, and he puns on it, he will take Feng'er and turn around to leave after speaking.
Yan Lingzhan knew that he had misunderstood others, and he was a little at a loss, so he said, "Can the Lord of the Ten Thousand Pavilion give me a face, and drink two cups with me?" ”
"Please." By all means, I will make a gesture of please.
As soon as the people on the ground got up, they stumbled and walked out, and the people who watched the bustle continued to eat their own food. Yan Lingzhan sat down at the empty table with Wan Yiqi.
"I don't know what Young Master Yan is doing when he comes to this Nanzhuan country?" In case he raised his eyes, the corners of his mouth were still the evil smile, and he was holding Feng'er in his arms.
Yan Lingzhan's face was heavy: "For the sake of worry." I wonder if there is any news from the Lord of the Ten Thousand Pavilion now? Gold and silver are not a problem. ”
In case Qi shook his head.
"Guest, what do you need?" Xiao Er has been here for a long time, and when he saw the two talking, it was not easy to disturb, so he said at this moment.
"Serve you the best food and drink." After Xiao Ye finished speaking, he gave him a piece of silver.
"Young Master Yan is really infatuated, it's been so long, and he hasn't given up yet." In case Qi said.
Yan Lingzhan sighed: "It's been almost a year, and I don't know if she's doing well now, and there is no news." ”
In case Qi saw him like this, he suddenly felt a little moved, and thought of the person he was looking for. But he wouldn't tell Yan Lingzhan about Ling Xiao's whereabouts, not only because of a promise, but also because he knew that Ling Xiao had never believed in Yan Lingzhan, so why bother with other people's affairs. Besides, in the eyes of Wanqi Qi, Lu Jingxing is much more upright than this Yanling Zhan, what Yanling Zhan can't hide in his eyes is ambition, but what Lu Jingxing cares more about is Kuangda.
In case Qi paused for a moment, he said: "The rivers and lakes have not been peaceful recently, and it is safer for Young Master Yan to go home as soon as possible." ”
"I've heard about these things, although those who were destroyed are from the rivers and lakes, they are also the people of various countries, and the court will not sit idly by, and the real culprit will naturally investigate." Yan Lingzhan said.
Among these sects that were destroyed, the Central Plains Kingdom was only a part, and the other part was even far away in the Western Regions. Kong Bozhi's ambition is to take the entire Dongzhou rivers and lakes into his hands, and wants to be the "emperor" in the rivers and lakes. But he was too anxious, the court had already realized the dangers of these things, and everyone understood the truth of the cold lips and teeth, how could the court allow these people to destroy the order that should exist and threaten the interests of the court and the people.
"Guest officer, your dish is here, please use it slowly." They chatted for a while, and a few juniors had already put the wine and food on the table one by one.
"Lord Wange, please." Yanlingzhan picked up the cup, and in case Qi also took it up, and the two of them drank it all.
"Come, Feng'er, open your mouth." In case they picked up the dishes and carefully fed them into Feng'er's mouth, it was as if no one was around.
Xiao Ye watched from the sidelines, a little surprised. Yan Lingzhan was also a little surprised, what did he think, in case Qi was the year of the weak crown, the child was so big, although a man could have a concubine at the age of fourteen or fifteen, few people would be so concerned about the child born of a concubine.
"The Lord of the Ten Thousand Pavilion is really different from others to Ling Ai." Yan Lingzhan said.
"Our father and daughter have been dependent on each other for many years." In case Qi said.
"I see." Yan Lingzhan picked up the cup again and drank it.
"Daddy, I'm sleepy." Feng'er has been playing for a day, and her eyes are a little confused at this moment.
In case Qi hugged Feng'er and got up, he said, "Young Master Yan, I'm missing, my Feng'er wants to rest, I'll go up first." Yan Lingzhan nodded and watched to leave.
"Childe, this person is so unruly that he doesn't even pay attention to you." Xiao Ye had never seen such an ignorant person, so he couldn't help but be a little angry.
Yanlingzhan drank alone and said, "It's just a person from the rivers and lakes, don't care too much." ”
At this time, she was sitting under a tree in the courtyard, leaning against the trunk of the tree, looking up at the bright moon like a round mirror, the bright moonlight sprinkled all over the courtyard, except for the chirping of crickets, as if there was no other sound, she felt surprisingly quiet. The night breeze intentionally or unintentionally stirred the bouquet of flower branches in her eyes, and the bright moon seemed to be connected with this flower branch, the flower branches shook gently, and the bright moon seemed to move lightly.
"Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking?" Taozhi walked over and sat next to Ling Xiao, the two have now become very good friends, and she has lived in this Yiyue Palace for so long.
"I just admire the moon. The moon is beautiful, but it's too cold, you know? Someone has actually been to the moon. Ling Xiao said.
Taozhi only thought about her overthinking, talking nonsense, and didn't care about her words, but cared about her mood, so she said: "Xiaoxiao, don't worry too much, these things can definitely be solved properly." Take care of your body, you know? ”
"I know, thank you." Ling Xiao said, now Jiang Tingxue also has news.
"Why don't you go to accompany Song Gongzi?" Ling Xiao asked again after a while.
Momozhi also looked at the moon and said, "He's resting, and we've been together all day, and we've just seen each other all night, it's nothing." It's you, it's probably very lonely alone, I want to accompany you to relax. ”
Ling Xiao smiled gratefully: "I know you're worried about me, but I'll be fine and wait here to pick me up." ”
"I feel like you're very different from other women." Taozhi looked at Ling Xiao and said.
Ling Xiao was very curious, now that she had changed so much, she didn't know what else was different, so she asked, "What's the difference?" ”
Momoeda thought for a while and said, "Actually, I can't say it, I just think it." ”
Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Actually, I admire you very much. ”
Momozhi was a little dazed, and asked rhetorically, "Admire me?" Why? ”
"There is a huge Yiyue Palace, and you manage it in an orderly manner, which is something that ordinary people can't do." Ling Xiao felt that it was really not easy for an ancient woman to do this.
"The palace masters of Yiyue Palace have all been women, this is the rule. That's why I started martial arts at the age of four, and now it's been more than 20 years. Momozhi said plainly.
"I see, they are all people with the same fate." Ling Xiao sighed.
"Fellows?" Taozhi looked at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao said: "I have only had my mother since I was a child, and I have never seen my father since I was a child. And my mother was hell-bent on putting me in charge of everything about her. The status of the merchants in our place is higher than that of the merchants of the Nanzhuan country, and this is what my mother also taught me from elementary school, and how to make myself a cold and heartless person. ”
"I didn't expect you to have such a past, no wonder you became so cold. Then why are you in Lufu? Momoeda was curious.
"I ran into it when I was running for my life, and later he taught me martial arts, and I lived in Lu Mansion." Ling Xiao said simply.
Momozhi felt a little cold, so he got up and said, "This is called fate." It's cold outside, so let's get in early. ”
Ling Xiao was not afraid of the cold, but she was worried about Taozhi, so she entered the house with her, and after entering the house, she chatted with Taozhi for a long time, and the hearts of the two became closer and closer.
The sky in the east was already flushed, and although the morning sun had not yet risen, its brilliance could not be obscured even by the mountains.
Jiang Tingxue and Gu Minluo left the inn and led the horse forward, she now knew that Ling Xiao was safe and sound, so she decided to work with Gu Minluo to help Lu Jingxing investigate their murderer by the way.
"Miss Jiang, you're tired, why don't we rest here before leaving." Gu Minluo saw that Jiang Tingxue already had a bead of sweat on his forehead, so he said.
Jiang Tingxue nodded, and said with a smile: "Okay! ”
"Miss Jiang, drink water." Gu Minluo handed the water to Jiang Tingxue, and Jiang Tingxue did not shirk and took the water.
"Master Luo, you're tired too, sit down and rest." Jiang Tingxue saw Gu Minluo standing there covering Jiao Yang for her, and she was a little reluctant.
"It's okay, I'm not tired, you take a little more rest, rest well, let's go again." Also, just call me by my name in the future. "Gu Minluo and Jiang Tingxue have been together for more than half a month.
"Well, I'll call you Minra from now on. Then you are not allowed to call me Miss Jiang anymore, you can call me Tingxue. Jiang Tingxue said.
The two rested for a while, and continued to walk forward while it was still early.
