Ye Xinyi's lips hooked into a smile, with some relief.

It's just that when she took a step, it was abrupt.

Wrong!

Her face changed in an instant, and she turned her head to look at the courtyard door of the dealer's house.

Raise your hand, touch the courtyard door, and your fingertips are dyed gray.

Since the beginning of winter, the snow has hardly stopped, intermittently, so there is no trace of it on the ground.

But the erected door is still covered by eaves tiles, but it is full of dust, which can only show that this courtyard has not been inhabited for a long time.

Linlang, where did you go?

An almost imperceptible subtle sound came into his ears, Ye Xinyi's apricot eyes flashed, and without hesitation, he turned around and walked away from the dealer's door.

However, it was too late.

The way in front of him has been blocked, Ye Xinyi's lowered eyes, the first thing he touched was the green and gold makeup Luo Luosa, at the moment, his heart was a huge shock.

Fortunately, she was bold, so she moved her eyes up, and sure enough, she saw the belt with gold thread inlaid with white jade tied around her lean waist, and then she saw the token hanging under her waist.

That style is too familiar, after all, there is also a piece hidden under her pillow, which has to be rubbed every night.

Raw copper forging, carved and hideous unicorn above, three big characters of "brocade guard" below are clearly visible, and next to the token, is the embroidered spring knife that reveals the handle of the knife, the handle of the knife, at this time still holding a hand, slender and distinct bones.

Ye Xinyi's eyes drooped slightly, there was a moment of blankness in his mind, and his heartbeat was like a drum.

"You...... Keep your head up! Above his head, a voice sounded, low and dumb, but it was like an impermanent urging sound, which made Ye Xinyi tremble for a moment, if he didn't use all his strength, he was afraid that he would immediately start a swing.

"What? Didn't you hear? The voice sank slightly, with an inexplicable majesty, and with that voice, the man took a step forward.

Ye Xinyi bit his lower lip lightly, and finally raised his head slowly.

Her eyes moved up inch by inch, first she saw the flying fish embroidered with gold thread on the placket, which stabbed people's eyes, and then went up, she finally saw the owner of the voice.

A young man, it seems, is only the age of a weak crown, a typical northerner face, without the gentleness and modesty of a beautiful man like a white-faced scholar.

His outline is thick and clear, a pair of eyebrows are carved like a knife, straight into the sideburns, his eyes are deep and ink, and he is focused on looking at people's expressions, making those eyes as sharp as sharp blades, revealing a cold and fierce look.

Ye Xinyi only dared to take a look, and then hurriedly lowered his head in surprise, not only because he confirmed that this person was Jinyiwei, and the last trace of luck was also in vain, but also because as he took a step closer, Ye Xinyi keenly smelled a smell of déjà vu.

The smell of incense candles......

This kind of smell, Ye Xinyi remembers, that day, in General Mingwei's mansion, the person chasing her also had the same smell on his body.

After all, if such a smell is smelled on a monk, it is not novel, but it is worn by a man, it has to be impressive, not to mention, this man is still a brocade guard.

"Who are you?" The man asked again, in a deep tone, unable to hear joy or anger.

Just now, although she only raised her head, he must have seen her appearance clearly, don't panic! Ye Xinyi thought quietly in her heart, she was just an ordinary little girl in the market, and that night, she also covered her face......

Jin Yiwei asked, naturally no one dared not answer.

Ye Xinyi slowly raised his head, glanced at the man timidly, and then frightened, quickly dodged his gaze, and replied in a soft voice, "If you go back to the official, I am the Nanma of this southern ear and eye alley." ”

"What are you doing here?" The man asked again, his gaze seemingly inadvertently falling on the cotton-wrapped thing on the stone pier in front of the dealer's house.

In the midst of the lightning, Ye Xinyi had slowly calmed down, "Back to the official's words, today, someone gave me twenty yuan, let me come to Shuijing Hutong, find a family surnamed Zhuang, and send something to his daughter, who used to work in a big family." It's just that...... When I came, I didn't see anyone, so I put down my things and left...... Official! I didn't...... I really didn't do anything bad! As he spoke, Ye Xinyi raised his head and said eagerly, his complexion turned white, and he was at a loss.

Ye Xinyi knew that her face at the moment must be white, but it was normal to fall in the eyes of men, after all, in this world, which ordinary people would not be afraid when they saw him in a flying fish suit?

The man frowned at her, and after a moment, he asked, "Who gave you the money?" ”

The little girl's shoulders shrunk inward, her eyebrows and the corners of her mouth were down, she looked very sad, her little hands twisted, and she shook her head, "I...... I don't know him, he doesn't seem to be from this area, I've never seen him in Xuannanfang. ”

"He? Is it a man? Do you remember what he looked like? ”

"It's a man. It doesn't seem to be tall, not short, not fat, not thin, and with a round face, no! It's pointed, it's not right, it seems to be round again, the eyes are right...... It's just the eyes, nothing special......" The little girl was obviously trying to remember, but she really couldn't remember, it was an expression that was about to cry, and her facial features, which were not very good, were even more dim.

The man raised his hand, "That's it." You say you're the Lamma of Ear and Eye Hutong? ”

Ye Xinyi's heart was stunned, his face was slightly wooden, and he nodded, "Hmm." ”

"Let's go! Take a trip to Ear and Eye Alley! The man said lightly, turned his head, and actually crossed Ye Xinyi to the door of the Zhuang family, and picked up the box that Ye Xinyi had just put on the stone pier.

In an instant, Ye Xinyi's heart was already overturned.

Jinyiwei, although he is notorious, Ye Xinyi has occasionally heard of it before, most of them are eating and being lackeys, but they are really brainless, why, the one she encountered is so difficult?

The man copied the box with one hand, stepped forward, and said lightly, "Let's go!" ”

When I turned around, I saw the little girl lowering her eyes and wiping her tears, "Official...... I didn't do anything wrong, if ...... My dad will beat my ...... to death."

"Don't worry, as long as you prove that what you said is true, I won't embarrass you!" The man stood beside her, looking at her, and the meaning could not be clearer.

Ye Xinyi knew that he couldn't hide from this encounter, so he could only go.

She finally moved, but her head was bowed and she was sobbing.

But in his heart, he was thinking quickly, this ear and eye alley naturally couldn't go.

Time is running out, so I have to look for opportunities.

Fortunately, however, she had not aroused any more suspicion from the man for the time being.

Otherwise, instead of taking her to Eryan'er Hutong, he would have taken her to the Imperial Prison.

Walking in silence all the way, the man kept following her one step apart, she was a little faster, he was faster, she was slow, he was slow.

But he didn't ask again.

Ye Xinyi hung his head and walked forward silently, but the corner of his eye was wandering around without relaxing at all.
