Young Master (5)
Xie Lan helped her and continued, "Do you know who Master Xuan is? ”
Suddenly asked by Xie Lan like this, Xuan Jinhuan was stunned for a moment and was a little confused: "Master Xuan, it's my stepmother." ”
"She's my aunt too." Xie Lan said lightly.
Who?
Hearing him say this, Xuan Jinhuan was also stunned for a moment before he was full of recollection of what his words meant: "Your Highness means that she is the ...... of the stepmother" She thought carefully for a while before saying, "The stepmother, she is the eldest princess of Yijia." ”
Xie Lan nodded, and didn't forget to tell her: "That's right, on the day when you all thought I was the Lord of the Yong'an Order, Lord Xuan Si and I chatted alone in the house for a while. Master Xuan took off his mask in front of me and identified himself. But my aunt told me to keep this secret and not tell anyone, I only told you, and you must not expose it in front of others. ”
Seeing that Xie Lan said it so sincerely, and then thinking of some things related to Master Xuan that had happened before, Xuan Jinhuan already believed it for seven or eight points; Moreover, Xie Lan told her such a secret thing again, so Xuan Jinhuan nodded seriously: "Your Highness, rest assured, Jinhuan will hide this matter deep in his heart." ”
"Thank you." Xie Lan took a deep breath and said.
Xuan Jinhuan took the letter and handed it to Master Xuan, who hurriedly glanced at it, snorted coldly, and slapped the letter on the case.
Xuan Jinhuan said cautiously: "Mother-in-law, this is the news that Wang Du has just heard. ”
"That's fun!" Master Xuan's tone was displeased, and his fingers tapped lightly on the case, "This is also something he did." ”
Xuan Jinhuan didn't dare to answer Master Xuan's words, so he only asked carefully: "What about the Second Highness?" ”
Master Xuan only said coldly: "There are still some things that must be confirmed, so this trip to the royal capital is also unavoidable." I'll discuss the matter with a few more masters, and you still follow the previous arrangement to enter Beijing with the master. ”
Since Master Xuan is so determined, there must be her plan; Xuan Jinhuan didn't need to think much about the things on the side, so he asked with a smile: "Mother-in-law, in what capacity did His Royal Highness enter Beijing this time?" ”
"Naturally, it is the Lord of Yong'an." Xuan Si said.
After they enter the capital, the Yongan secret guards will also sneak into the royal capital one after another to stand by. Now that Emperor Chengji is acting like this, it is obvious that he is directly excluding Xie Lan from the throne in this way, even if Xie Lan returns to the royal capital alive, he can only be a dead man in the eyes of others.
After thinking about it, Master Xuan instructed Xuan Jinhuan again: "Master Nan means to let Wan Qing enter Beijing with you." There are green people in the palace to take care of each other, and all matters outside the palace still require you to think more about it. ”
Xuan Jinhuan responded: "Rest assured by the stepmother." ”
Master Xuan said: "After you arrive in the royal capital, you will go to Hongfu Temple to meet Master Huiyuan and tell him everything." ”
"That Mr. Haiyi......" Xuan Jinhuan didn't mean to mention it like this, but for some reason, he remembered Mr. Haiyi when his stepmother mentioned Master Huiyuan.
"He'll let it go for a while, and then he'll talk about it later." On the contrary, Master Xuan didn't seem to care much about this person, and said in a light tone.
The Yong'an secret guards performed their duties, waiting for the master's order.
Later, Xuan Jinhuan accompanied Xie Lan down to Qianyue Peak to Yong'an City, but both of them wore hats and black robes, hiding their faces tightly.
Xuan Jinhuan lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness has come to Yong'an, and you should have also visited Yong'an City." ”
Xie Lan nodded: "At that time, they were all looking for the Yongan Secret Guard. Jun Ran also fell in love with a girl in Yong'an. Passing by the Yue family's wine shop opposite the Red Sleeve Xuan, Xie Lan was stunned for a moment and continued, "That Yue Tong girl, she is your Yong'an secret guard, right?" ”
Sure enough, when he heard him mention Yue Tong, Xuan Jinhuan shook his head: "No, Miss Yue, she is indeed just an ordinary Yongan girl." But after all, she is a girl who grew up in Yong'an, and she knows more than you outsiders. ”
Xie Lan has a deep understanding of this: "If I guessed correctly, in fact, the entire Yong'an City people will cover for the Yong'an secret guards, right?" ”
"Hmm." Xuan Jinhuan only nodded, and said no more.
They entered the Red Sleeve Pavilion, where the singing and dancing were flat, and the young girl bounced the lute, and her beautiful face was with a green smile.
Xuan Jinhuan told Xie Lan that the Red Sleeve Xuan was the liaison base of the Yongan Secret Guard Xisi in Yong'an; Yan Qi and Zhu Yunqing came down from the second floor of the Red Sleeve Xuan, and when they saw Xie Lan, they saluted: "Lord Ling." ”
"This is Senior Brother Yan Qi and Yan Jingming, the disciple of Uncle Song, the master of the West Division; This is Senior Sister Zhu Yunqing, a disciple of Uncle Ji, the head of the Northern Division, and she is also the daughter of Xia Ruofu, a female official of the former dynasty. Xuan Jinhuan introduced Xie Lan one by one.
"Zhu Yunqing?" Xie Lan was still stunned when she heard Zhu Yunqing's name.
After all, Zhu Yunqing had seen Xie Lan in the royal capital before, and unfortunately Xie Lan bumped into her and Xuan Jinhuan many times, Xie Lan should have known that she was Yong'an's secret guard; So Zhu Yunqing could only smile a little embarrassedly.
In fact, when Xie Lan saw Zhu Yunqing again, he couldn't help but remember that he had heard his eldest sister Princess Guanghua mention this name; Princess Guanghua once told Xie Lan that the Zhu family had a niece of the collateral line, who was dignified and beautiful, and was a female official in the palace, who was Zhu Yunqing.
However, Xie Lan just regarded these things as a spring breeze, and he didn't take them seriously at all.
Xuan Jinhuan vaguely felt that Xie Lan and Zhu Yunqing seemed to be a little strange, and they couldn't say it.
The group of them went up to the second floor of the Red Sleeve Xuan, and Xuan Jinhuan told Xie Lan that Yan Qi and Zhu Yunqing also went to Beijing with them. In fact, Xie Lan was still a little subconsciously dodging Yan Qi's scorching gaze; Yan Qi was a swordsman, his eyes were as sharp as a vulture, and he quickly moved away after making eye contact with him.
This time, Xuan Jinhuan just brought Xie Lan over to meet the two of them, after all, they will all work in the royal capital in the future; Only Yong'an Secret Guard West Master Song Fu has always been very sensitive to Xie Lan's life experience, because it is said that the person Song Yu hates the most has always been Xie Jia, and recently she just learned that in addition to Emperor Chengji, the person that Uncle Song dislikes next is Princess Yixing.
When I came out of the Red Sleeves, some accidents happened.
Xie Lan happened to meet Xie Ye coming this way, and he was a little sluggish. He and Xuan Jinhuan were both dressed tightly, and Xie Ye naturally couldn't see his face, but he suddenly saw two strangely dressed people on the street, which still caused Xie Ye to look sideways a few more times, and then Yue Tong came out of the tavern and said something to him, and the two entered the tavern together.
Xuan Jinhuan said in a low voice: "King Wu and this girl Yue have developed to an unimaginable level. ”
Xie Lan was silent and did not speak.
