Her figure looked extraordinarily thin, and she didn't know what she was thinking when she stood by the lake, but she was a little shaky, like a butterfly about to fall.

Bai Yulan saw her absent-minded appearance, and couldn't help but be a little worried about whether she would easily fall into this lake, and wanted to step forward to pull her back, but even if she was dragged back, she was still not in a state.

Bai Yulan was about to ask her, but Wanrou quickly adjusted her expression, and a pair of eyes swept over her, with a smile that had not changed for thousands of years.

"Are we going to go any further? Opposite is a bazaar. ”

By this time, the sky had gradually darkened, as if a black curtain had fallen.

Qi Lianyu looked a little unhappy and said: "I said before that when night falls, I will go back, and you have no jokes." ”

Qi Lianyu's voice was a little colder, which made Bai Yulan inevitably think about his thoughts.

At the beginning of the lanterns, although it looked very beautiful, she thought that she still couldn't look at it.

At that time, Ye Mingting will definitely be very anxious.

"Let's go back first." Bai Yulan said slowly: "If you have been away for too long, the people in the house don't know, if it is Lord Liu, you must be very anxious." ”

Wanrou smiled faintly, and did not nod in agreement, nor objected, Bai Yulan took her as if she agreed.

Qi Lianyu walked in front of the two, the pace was extremely fast, Bai Yulan couldn't keep up, and when she caught up, she was tired and a little out of breath.

After turning several corridors, I arrived at the entrance of the mansion.

As soon as Wanrou arrived, Liu An walked out of the gate and happened to meet Wanrou, and he couldn't help but reprimand a little: "Some time ago, didn't you say that you were unwell and didn't feel comfortable blowing the wind outside?" ”

"Now I can be out and about, what if the old disease returns? I don't have anyone around to take care of me.

Although he looked fierce when he said this, Bai Yulan could still feel the concern in Liu An's words.

Thinking of this, she inevitably felt a little upset for Mrs. Liu.

Wanrou quickly entered the room, and when she looked at Liu An, the eyes that should have been bright and bright would become a little eclipsed, as if something had been lost from the eyes.

Liu An also noticed her, and hurriedly said, "Madam Bai, why are you here?" Adults have asked me where you are before, but I don't know, and I haven't answered. ”

"The hot pot was about to be boiled in the house, and Mrs. Bai came in and everyone was ready." There was a smile in his voice.

However, Bai Yulan was always a little unhappy in her heart, she narrowed her eyes and said to Liu An in a sullen voice: "I just ate something outside, and I feel a little uncomfortable, and I want to walk around here again." ”

Liu An smiled heartily and said, "It's okay, then let's wait for Mrs. Bai to come back, and then let's start." ”

Bai Yulan didn't speak, just bowed her head, and dragged Qi Lianyu away.

And Wanrou stood at the door, looked at her and Qi Lianyu for a long time, and then entered the door.

Bai Yulan walked on this path, frowned, and said unhappily: "This Liu An looks like an honest person, how do you feel a little bit of care, it is clear that he and his wife are in deep love, and they share weal and woe, but can't they be a person who enjoys together?" ”

She said in a sullen voice: "Although this gentle girl is good-looking, it is just a skin. ”

When Bai Yulan spoke, the corners of her mouth turned downward, which was a detailed expression of her displeasure.

Qi Lianyu was a little puzzled by her words at first, but then he figured it out, after all, he had also heard that Bai Yulan was a person who asked for a lifetime and a couple, even in the palace of the Hui Dynasty, she was the only queen, and when she was a hidden dragon, she was also a lady in the mansion of Jing'an Hou.

He inquired about the news, there was a woman who helped Ye Mingting on the battlefield, and later came to the door with Entu, but in the end she was still defeated by Bai Yulan's men.

After all, he was blown away, and I don't know which frontier he was assigned to be a prisoner.

"Do you think that's the nature of men?" Bai Yulan suddenly stopped, stood in front of him, looked at Qi Lianyu for a moment, and said, "After everyone makes a fortune, will they find another confidante?" ”

He looked at Bai Yulan's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little palpitation, and after a long time, Qi Lianyu said: "Although what you said applies to most people, it is not applicable to many people around you. ”

When he spoke, his eyes really looked at Bai Yulan, under the moonlight, there was a little different meaning, which made people look very moved, the corners of his mouth pulled up a smile, his voice was soft, and he said slowly: "I think, most of their people's thoughts are like this, but in my opinion, as long as they are capable people, they are all the same, regardless of men and women." ”

Bai Yulan was surprised, this was not like what a man in such a feudal era could say.

If she hadn't known that he was a native of ancient times, then she would have thought that this person was the same as her, and he came from the future.

"Do you mean, do you think that men and women are equal, as long as they are capable people, they can take on heavy responsibilities, and they don't have to be forced to stay at home to teach their husbands and children because they are women, and keep so many rules and regulations?" She asked rhetorically: "Then if it's like a woman who raises a lot of male pets around her, you won't think it's a bad moral?" ”

Although she is not in favor of raising male pets or polygamy, the nature of this is the same.

Qi Lianyu nodded slowly, sincerely affirming her statement: "This has always been my opinion, could it be that you didn't know it at the beginning?" ”

Bai Yulan was shocked by him again, his thoughts had never been spoken, how could she know?

"This is everyone's freedom, they have such rights and practices, and I will not agree with them, nor will they prevent or deny them." Qi Lianyu said slowly.

When he said this, his eyes flashed, making Bai Yulan suddenly feel for a moment.

She couldn't help but take a step back, but her feet slipped suddenly, as if she had stepped on something.

Qi Lianyu held her shoulder with one hand, so that she could stabilize her body and not fall, Qi Lianyu was really a gentleman, and he actually held her shoulder with one hand, and he didn't mean to touch her at all.

Bai Yulan sighed in her heart again, this person, she really didn't look away at the beginning.

At this moment, she lowered her head and glanced at the thing that had touched her heel, it was a very small bottle, smooth and transparent, without any patterns or writing on it.

Throwing it away, a snow-white powder fell to the ground, and although it was stained with dirt, she still found it suspicious.

She squatted down, gently twisted the powder on her fingertips, and fanned it with her other hand, barely smelling the slightest smell, which was very uncomfortable, but somewhat familiar.

Bai Yulan frowned and said, "How can this powder be sprinkled here and everywhere?" ”

She looked up and made a fire to illuminate the part of the wall, and she noticed that in addition to the ground, there was also a little bit of powder on the wall, although it was very small, and if the dust covered it a little more, it might not be possible to see these fine powders clearly.

Seeing this, Qi Lianyu also took a step forward, dipped a little of the gray-white powder on his fingertips, sniffed it gently, and frowned: "This thing seems to be very similar to the smell in the room before." ”

Bai Yulan was surprised for a moment and said, "Taste? ”

She reacted suddenly, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "You mean, this is the Western Regions spice that appeared on the soft couch that day......"

"Not really, it's just mixed in, but you can't smell it." Qi Lianyu's eyebrows frowned slightly, he took the fire box, and circled around again, observing it carefully.

Only then did I find that in the corner of the wall, there were more than one or two such bottles, and several others were of the same shape, but although the colors of the bottles were different.

However, it is still recognizable at a glance, and it is the same powder inside.

In one corner of the wall, even graffiti with this kind of powder, as if leaving a few crooked paintings in the corner, Bai Yulan glanced at it, and felt that it was like the role of chalk in modern times.

"Maybe you were in too much of a hurry and threw it from the other side of the wall?" Bai Yulan speculated.

"But it's too risky." Qi Lianyu disagreed with her opinion, and frowned: "But I guess, it may be that some other children found a large amount of powder in some places and used it for graffiti." ”

"I remember that there were many servants in the house, and they would also bring their children to live there for a while."

Qi Lianyu's words were said on Bai Yulan's approval point, it is true, such strange graffiti here does not seem to be the handwriting of adults.

Aside from the relationship between Liu An and Wanrou that she saw today, in other aspects, I have to say that Bai Yulan still has to praise him, and the relationship with the people is also very good, and he is a rare good official, but she does not agree with Wanrou in the matter of He Wanrou.

It makes sense that children would use the powder as a toy to doodle on the walls as a paintbrush.

Bai Yulan pondered for a moment, frowned slightly, and said, "At present, it seems that there is only this possibility. ”

Qi Lianyu treats this kind of detail more carefully than her.

After he looked around carefully, he was barely relieved.

At present, it seems that only the small bottles scattered here can be regarded as a windfall, and he used a piece of cloth to put all the small bottles together, and his face is still a stern expression.

After the fire fold was extinguished in the alley, the entire long alley was particularly dark, making Bai Yulan's heart tremble after seeing it.

The deep and long seems to have no end in sight, which really makes people's hearts feel empty.

"Do you want to keep walking?" Qi Lianyu suddenly asked her, but his movements were still fiddling with the porcelain vase in his hand, a little absent-minded.
