The prosperity is gone, the hustle and bustle has stopped, this busy and ordinary world is the real world.

The emperor's car has been gone for a long time, and at this time, it is estimated that he has left Hangzhou City, and the chariot and horse Xiao Xiao looked north. The tea customers in the teahouse also changed one after another, but Xiao Ziling was still sitting in the teahouse in a daze, looking at the crowd coming and going on the street.

Yu Nu knew that Xiao Ziling must be very uncomfortable in her heart at this moment, so she didn't interrupt her deep thoughts and let her go alone. After the discomfort, her young lady will definitely be the strong, calm and calm wise woman, and will never be entangled in the sadness of the past again.

For a whole afternoon, Xiao Ziling soaked in the teahouse, and when the sun was setting, she came back to her senses from the past and decided to leave - leaving the past, leaving thoughts, leaving conspiracy, retreating from love, withdrawing from the past, in the days to come, she is no longer Xiao Ziling, but Ye Xin! She wants to be reborn, scrape her bones to heal her wounds, and live her true self!

got up to settle the account, she took the jade slave downstairs, the wooden staircase made a muffled sound of "knock", perhaps because she was still indulging in deep thought, at the corner of the stairs, Xiao Ziling accidentally collided with a man facing upstairs. collided unexpectedly, the man was as burly as a statue, and Xiao Ziling, a weak woman dressed as a man, was hit and almost rolled down the stairs.

The jade slave hurriedly supported Xiao Ziling, Xiao Ziling was also startled, and then he looked up at the man who came upstairs, only to see that the man was about twenty-seven or eight years old, extremely long, wearing a crescent-colored cardigan robe, with long hair scattered on his shoulders, only a black belt to tie the hair in front of him behind his head, his eyes were deep and cold, and his body exuded an awe-inspiring aura. His thin lips pursed, and he lowered his head and looked at Xiao Ziling vigilantly.

However, the vigilance in his eyes was fleeting, replaced by a hint of surprise - after such a careless collision, he already knew that the petite and handsome "man" in front of him was a woman disguised as a man! Otherwise, how could he be so lightly bumped into and almost stumble and fall?

The man stared at Xiao Ziling's fair face quite curiously, Xiao Ziling was a little embarrassed by his staring, and couldn't help but glance at him, and then ran down the stairs with two or three steps. Seeing her running downstairs in a panic, the man couldn't help but show a faint smile, and he was even more sure that the "man" in front of him was a woman!

The man went upstairs and sat down on the street where Xiao Ziling was sitting, and subconsciously lowered his head and walked around the market, looking for Xiao Ziling's figure. At a glance he saw her and the maid who was with her (he was sure that she was also a woman), and they were walking east one after the other.

The man in white looked at Xiao Ziling's petite and light back with great interest while drinking tea, and suddenly, Xiao Ziling suddenly raised his head and met his eyes for a long time...... At the end, Xiao Ziling gave him a wry smile, and then turned to leave......

Having said that, after running down the stairs and out of the teahouse, Xiao Ziling couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. The man's eyes were quite strange, could it be that he had already seen her daughter's body? That's right, she is petite, her skin is delicate and fair, and her face is delicate, even if she is wearing men's clothes, it is not difficult to see that she is a woman, right? You know, modern TV dramas are really misleading, how can men's clothes be so easy to pretend?

As soon as she thought of the man's eyes, Xiao Ziling felt familiar—this man, where did she seem to have seen it before? No! As soon as she crossed over, she entered the palace not long after, except for her brother, Brother Zhan and Meng Hongyu, where did she see a few men? How could he have met this man? However, that look was quite familiar!

Xiao Ziling felt a pair of searching eyes above her head staring at her, she suddenly raised her head, and sure enough, she saw the man in white! In order to determine whether she had really seen that man, Xiao Ziling stared at him generously without knowing how to avoid it, and after a while, she finally remembered when and where she had seen this man!

Hello, friends! Xiao Ziling said hello to the man in white in his heart, and then showed him a bright smile that knew his chest, and then turned to leave......

.

Siyuanju, the courtyard of Chu Tian and Liu Wanruo, is located in a secluded place in the west of Hangzhou, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city center, quiet as if built in the deep mountains of the grass house, is also a good place to spend the years in peace.

Originally, Xiao Ziling had planned to accept Chu Tian and Liu Wanruo's kindness, live in Siyuan House for a while, and then go to the end of the world after Meng Hongyu returned to the capital after the dust settled, looking for mountains and rivers. However, after returning from the teahouse, Xiao Ziling suddenly changed his mind and decided to leave Hangzhou.

In other words, after returning from the teahouse, Xiao Ziling has been sullen and silent, as if he has something on his mind. Originally, Yu Nu expected that Xiao Ziling must be reluctant to Meng Hongyu, so he would not take this listless appearance to heart. However, during dinner, Xiao Ziling suddenly said that he was leaving Hangzhou.

Liu Wanruo was taken aback, and she didn't know why Xiao Ziling suddenly changed her mind, so she smiled and said: "If Sister Xiao really makes up her mind, we won't keep it, however, yesterday I said that I would live here for a while, why did I suddenly say that I was going to leave today?" But what happened? Or are we not hospitable? ”

Xiao Ziling shook his head lightly and said thoughtfully: "No! You treat me like a friend, like a god, why are you not being treated? It's just that...... I had a reason why I had to leave Hangzhou. ”

Liu Wanruo asked curiously, "What reason?" ”

Xiao Ziling didn't seem to intend to say it, so she didn't answer Liu Wanruo's curiosity, but asked rhetorically, "Will Brother Chu come to the other courtyard today?" "Because Chu Tian wants to take care of business in the silk village, he doesn't come to the other courtyard much, only Liu Wanruo lives in the other courtyard for a long time to accompany Xiao Ziling, and Chu Tian only occasionally comes to sit when he is free.

I don't know why Xiao Ziling suddenly asked about Chutian, Liu Wanruo was puzzled in her heart, and said, "Maybe he will come, he hasn't come here for a few days." It's just that why did you suddenly ask about Brother Chu? ”

Xiao Ziling sighed softly, smiled and said, "It's nothing, I wanted to have a good goodbye meal with you and your wife." ”

"You...... Really leaving?! Liu Wanruo asked a little sadly.

"Hmm!" Xiao Ziling nodded heavily, then looked at Liu Wanruo with a firm and clear look, and said a little reluctantly, "It's time to go, stay any longer, I'm afraid something will happen......"

"What the hell is going on? Why did you say you were going to leave so suddenly? Liu Wanruo asked anxiously - she was really worried that she was not entertaining well, or that she had inadvertently offended Xiao Ziling, so she was quite anxious.

"Today, I saw ...... People who shouldn't be seen. Xiao Ziling's eyes suddenly dimmed, and there was a trace of worry in his tone.

"Who?" Liu Wanruo and Yunu asked in unison, and stared at Ziling with big eyes.

Zi Ling couldn't help but chuckle, and then comforted them: "Don't worry, it's not a monster!" ”

Then, Xiao Ziling turned his head to look at the jade slave and asked, "Do you remember the man who collided with me on the stairs of the teahouse in the evening?" ”

"Yes." Of course Yunu remembered what had just happened, but she didn't know why her young lady still remembered it, and suddenly asked about the strange man—maybe not a strange man? Therefore, Yunu hurriedly asked, "Could it be that Miss knows that person?" ”

Xiao Ziling nodded lightly, his eyes were instantly filled with clouds, and he said worriedly: "That man...... It's the person next to the emperor. ”

It turned out that the man in white that Xiao Ziling accidentally bumped into was named Zhang Wenyan, who was Meng Hongyu's companion, who grew up with Meng Hongyu since he was a child, and had a very close relationship with Meng Hongyu. He was originally a guard captain of the Yulin Army, responsible for the defense of the capital, but he didn't know why he appeared in Hangzhou?

"Who is it?" Liu Wanruo asked curiously.

"Zhang Wenyan!" Xiao Ziling said.

"It turns out that he is Zhang Wenyan!" Although they had never met, Yunu had already heard of Zhang Wenyan's name. You must know that the group of palace ladies in the palace always like to talk about those imperial relatives and military generals when they have nothing to do, and a young and promising man like Zhang Wenyan is the object of their affection, so they are more keen to talk about his gossip. After being in the palace for so many years, Yunu has more or less heard of Zhang Wenyan.

It turns out that this chapter Wenyan is still a colt master! His wife is Murong Xi, who is the daughter of the first emperor's sister (that is, Meng Hongyu's aunt), that is, Meng Hongyu's cousin. Therefore, this chapter Wenyan can also be regarded as a relative of the emperor. It is said that this Murong Xi is beautiful and beautiful, and the country is beautiful and fragrant, but it is a pity that he has been spoiled by his family since he was a child, he is not only tricky and willful, but also spicy and jealous, and manages Zhang Wenyan as tightly as his own little girl, so the couple is gradually dissatisfied, and their relationship is not harmonious.

Xiao Ziling nodded and said, "I forgot what year it was the Chinese New Year's Eve Night Banquet, I saw him in the palace...... Just collided with him, I saw that he only felt familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, I remembered that it was him! With her ability to remember people, she will definitely not be mistaken, that man is indeed Zhang Wenyan!

"Isn't Lord Zhang the captain of the Imperial Forest Army? How did it appear in the city of Hangzhou? Miss, you...... Is it wrong? Yunu asked, puzzled.

"Yes! Zhang Wenyan is the captain of the Imperial Forest Army, and he did not accompany the southern tour this time, so he should be guarding the capital, how could he appear in Hangzhou City? Xiao Ziling seemed to be asking Yunu, and she seemed to be asking herself, she said while thinking, "Is this ...... Isn't it doubtful? ”

"That's why Sister Xiao suddenly said she was leaving Hangzhou?" It wasn't because she didn't entertain well, so Liu Wanruo was a lot more relieved, so she persuaded Xiao Ziling, "If that's the case, then my sister doesn't have to leave Hangzhou, as long as she lives in another courtyard and doesn't show up in the city." ”

"No!" Xiao Ziling shook his head and said, "It is not by chance that Zhang Wenyan appeared in Hangzhou City, among them, there must be something important worth pondering!" Maybe it really has nothing to do with me, but today he has seen me and seems to recognize me...... I can't help but have a lot of dreams at night, so it's better to leave......"

She knew that Zhang Wenyan must have been assigned by Meng Hongyu to secretly bring him to Jiangnan, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to leave the capital. Moreover, if he appeared in Hangzhou City today, he must set off from the capital before Xiao Ziling "had an accident", so Zhang Wenyan would not have come for her. So, what did he come about?

No matter what Zhang Wenyan came to Jiangnan for, it has nothing to do with her, now, what she is worried about is only being discovered by Zhang Wenyan and revealing her identity, you know, she traveled thousands of miles to come from mountains and rivers, and planned deliberately, in order to escape from Meng Hongyu's side. Now, she has finally escaped with all her strength, and she doesn't want to be taken back to that gorgeous cage to be imprisoned!

Just now, Zhang Wenyan looked at her with such strange eyes, as if he had noticed something, so he couldn't avoid having a long night of dreams, and Xiao Ziling decided to leave Hangzhou quickly.
