After sending away the sturgeon, the huge mansion seemed a little empty.

But there are many people left: the slaves who were bought, who have no families. Wherever they are sold, it is their home.

Seeing that Xie Siyun and Chu Yue were getting along well, they also seemed to have a warm atmosphere in this New Year's Pass, busy cooking Chinese New Year's Eve dinner inside and out, and even bought fireworks from the street market.

Hatsuki liked the warmth and warmth: although she and the slaves still seemed to be strangers, she believed that they would gradually become familiar with each other, and that they would be the closest family in the future.

This is the first time that Hatsuki has spent such a warm New Year in this place.

In fact, in the modern era, the Chinese New Year was a very common day for the first moon. Her parents died young, and her relatives and friends rarely interacted. Whether it's a New Year's holiday or a holiday, she always puts herself into her work: because of overtime on her days off, she will be paid more.

In the past, there seemed to be only two words in her life: "making money".

Now I know that there are so many warm things waiting for her.

Chu Yue actually doesn't like to be so lively, so she just looks at the girls in the yard who are actually not very old from a distance.

Xie Siyun looked at Chu Yue standing in front of the door, stepped forward and put on her clothes: "Chu Yue, there is something I want to discuss with you." ”

Chu Yue smiled slightly, and gently leaned into Xie Siyun's arms: "Want to go to Penglai?" ”

Xie Siyun was stunned, but he didn't expect Chu Yue to even be able to guess this: "I know, it's the New Year's Festival." It's really hard to go out at this time. ”

"What's the difficulty? Don't be embarrassed! ”

Chu Yue listened to him explain so carefully, but she wanted to laugh a little: "Just think it is...... Honeymoon! ”

"Honeymoon? What do you mean? ”

Xie Siyun's tone became a little ambiguous, although she didn't understand what the honeymoon meant, but the word "honey" allowed her to guess eight or nine.

Chu Yue has nothing to hide from Xie Siyun: "In the place where I used to live, the first month after the couple got married was the sweetest time, so it was called a honeymoon. In honeymoons, most newlyweds choose to go to other places to visit, which is roughly what it means. ”

Chu Yue turned around and gently reached out and pinched Xie Siyun's cheek: "I also think that it is a good time for us to go to Penglai now to do business." ”

Xie Siyun smiled a little: "At this time, do you still have the heart to make money?" But you're right. ”

The end of the year has come, and no matter how busy the businessmen are, they have a time to rest, and they go to Penglai unexpectedly at this time, and they will definitely be able to earn it!

So none of the servants in the courtyard of the Xie family expected that the master would pack up and prepare for the road on the second day of the Lunar New Year!

But when they really got on the road, Chu Yue only knew that this world was no longer as happy as they thought.

It was supposed to be a day of reunion for every family on the New Year's Day, but there were no fewer displaced people on the road, and even more and more: many people with distant relatives wanted to take advantage of this festival to go there. Those who don't have it are even more lonely and pitiful in this festival that should be lively.

In the early moon, they and their group of Hao Hao Tang Tang became very different among these homeless people.

In fact, the journey from Nanzhou City to Penglai is not too far, and the Dayue Dynasty has always been tied to Penglai, so Penglai does not have too much vigilance against the people of the Dayue Dynasty, and checked their goods at will, and after collecting the "hard money" they gave, they let them pass.

Penglai is a small country consisting of many islands, so the waterways are very developed.

An island in Penglai is equivalent to a city in the Dayue Dynasty.

Moreover, each island is attached to a certain dignitary, according to Xie Siyun, Qi Duo should have had two islands here, but then he took the initiative to give it up.

Now that Qi Duo is locked up in the imperial city, they must go to the largest island in Penglai: Yuchang Island.

The waterway walked intermittently for two whole days, and the early moon finally saw Yuchang Island: far away, before the island showed half of its figure, it saw the Penglai Palace with golden glazed tiles.

It is said that the royal family of Penglai did not build the palace in this color in the past, just like the houses on other cities and islands in Penglai, which are more blue bricks. Later, the Penglai people saw the majesty and solemnity of the palace of the Dayue Dynasty, so they also changed to gold and purple as the orthodox colors of their royal family, which made the palace of Penglai so magnificent.

But unlike the Dayue Dynasty, because the Penglai Palace occupies almost the entire Yuchang Island, and it has not been completely built until now.

Therefore, the outermost layer of the Penglai Palace is allowed for the people to enter the trading trade. In the outermost layer lived the various ministers of Penglai, and two bazaars were set up for trading.

Chu Yue and Xie Siyun had already made their reputation as "skein" along the way, so as long as they didn't bring weapons, they could enter the two bazaars to trade.

Qi Duo is now under house arrest in the palace, and logically speaking, since it is house arrest, it means that as long as he does not leave the scope of this Yuchang Island, he should be able to move freely.

Chu Yue Ben still felt a little difficult: they had come here, but how could they meet Qi Duo? Yuchang Island is so big, if Qi Duo doesn't come out, how can it be good?

Unexpectedly, Xie Siyun and Qi Duo have been together for so many years, and there has been a tacit understanding between the two.

When he first entered Penglai, he called himself "hidden" to the outside world. Later, Chu Yue realized that Xie Siyun's font name was "hidden", which was not commonly used by others, and as long as Qi Duo listened to it, he would definitely be a little curious.

It's just that Chu Yue didn't expect that on the second day of staying at the inn on Yuchang Island, he didn't see Qi Duo, but he saw another person-

The person who wants to see in the early moon, but doesn't want to see.

Chu Yue and Xie Siyun lived in the inn's Tianzihao, and from the large platform in their room, they could see almost all the islands to the north.

There are only three Tianzi rooms in the inn, although it is the New Year's Festival now, but after all, it is the place where the imperial city is located, so it is full early.

When the shopkeeper came to knock on the door, Chu Yue was dressing up and getting ready to go out. Xie Siyun said that since they were here for their honeymoon, they naturally wanted to go out and have a good time.

The shopkeeper knocked politely and politely on the door, and after opening the door, he looked very embarrassed: "Two guest officers, I'm really sorry!" ”

Xiao Er's meaning is this: In their store, a very distinguished customer came today. This guest comes to the store's Tianzi room for a few days every month, but this time the Tianzi room is full. Originally, it only needed Xiao Er to expel a guest, after all, the identity of the distinguished guest was special, not to mention the number of heavens, that is, to live in the entire inn, and the shopkeeper did not dare to say anything.

But the guest meant, don't do that. She came in to take a look at the three Tianzi rooms, and personally explained the situation to the guests when she chose which one, and invited people away, which also saved Xiao Er's trouble.

She has finished reading the first two rooms, and now there is only the one where Chu Yue and Xie Siyun live.

Seriously, Hatsuki doesn't like this kind of behavior. But in this day and age, those who have privilege are privileged. She and Xie Siyun are at most ordinary people, and in this foreign country, it's better not to cause trouble.

Although Chu Yue was unhappy in her heart, she finally opened the door and turned around, but she didn't look at the little two but let people enter the door: "Then let the distinguished guests come in and have a look." ”

Hatsuki walked to the dresser, thinking about whether to replace the beaded flowers on her head with tassel hairpins.

But when I saw the "distinguished guest" enter the door in the mirror, the whole person's body froze-

The person who entered the door was not an outsider, but it was rainy and graceful!

That one...... One of the culprits who caused her and Xie Siyun to almost die at sea, that Chu Yue had sincerely regarded her as a good friend!

Yin Yuwan entered the door, and the first person she saw was Xie Siyun.

She took a step back, barely believing her eyes.

Xie Siyun was calm, as if he had been mentally prepared to meet her. took a step forward and stuffed a piece of silver into his hand for the little two: "This distinguished guest is our old acquaintance, you go down first, we have something to say." ”

With that, he closed the door.

Chu Yue also put down the hairpin in her hand and turned back, looking at Yin Yuwan, who was still stunned, and the last bit of hope in her heart was also annihilated: she still imagined that maybe Yin Yuwan didn't know about the water droplets. Maybe she was framed too. But now looking at her death-like look, I know that it must have been her doing.

Approaching Yin Yuwan step by step, watching her expression become more and more stiff, Chu Yue wanted to say "long time no see" as if she was nothing.

But she is not a saint, and the resentment in her heart is finally unbearable at this moment.

She looked at Yin Yuwan and sneered: "What, scared stupid?" Do you think we are ghosts who have returned from hell and come to you for revenge? ”

The familiar voice, but the unfamiliar delay and hatred, made Yin Yuwan finally come back from the shock, took a step back, and pressed her back against the wooden door behind her: "You guys...... Not dead?! ”

Chu Yue smiled slightly: "You are shocked? So you take it seriously...... Did you do those things with the determination that you would inevitably kill me? ”

Yin Yuwan took a deep breath and finally stood firm: "The first moon...... I...... No. ”

"What's not?"

Chu Yue stepped forward and looked a little aggressive: "Don't you want to kill me?" Or did you not give me the water droplet? You already know their thoughts in the big house, that's why you cooperate with them and want us to die more completely, right? ”

Chu Yue's words and words made Yin Yuwan have no room for refutation.

In the past, it was like a celestial face, but now it makes people feel very dull and boring.
