Hearing this, Nan Qiao didn't take these conversations to heart, because she knew that she and Mu Baizhuo had always been good friends, but they were just 'close' in the eyes of the ancients.

After the princess of Dongjun entered Mu Baizhuo's room, Nan Qiao saw that they had been chatting for a long time and the princess of Dongjun had not come out, so she had to leave first and went to the Pingding palace instead.

She told herself that it would be good to just take a sneak peek and see if they had come back from Hongyun Village.

The door of the backyard opened, and the little maid transporting vegetables was confused by the confusion, and the dark and shiny pupils of the girl in front of him shrank slightly, and began to inquire about the situation of the little maid's palace.

The little servant told Nan Qiao what he saw and knew without reservation, and today the king of Pingding returned home safely, and he sent a large amount of vegetables and meat just because the palace was preparing for the funeral.

Nan Qiao, who learned of this, stood in the dark for a long time, looking at the tall wall and seeing no one in sight, and finally turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

"I want to see Frost!" Since Nan Feng tricked her into seeing Cen Xi, Nan Feng quietly left the Pingding Palace, and Nan Qiao guessed that most of them had sneaked back to the Southern Jin Dynasty.

Cen Xi on the opposite side was preparing spices, and he said slightly in response to Nan Qiao's request, "It's already on the way here, and you'll see it tomorrow." ”

After Nan Qiao knew about Xiaoshuang's situation, he didn't stay long, turned around and walked out of Cen Xi's house.

The young man who was still mixing incense seriously, the silver spoon scooped up the ice blue incense powder, and the tip of his nose gently sniffed next to the silver spoonful of spices, and finally showed a satisfied smile,

"The ice blue flowers of Lan Country are really getting better and better this month!"

A moment later, there was a knock on the door, "Master, Moon Ripples are back." ”

Cen Xi continued to fiddle with the gadgets in his hand, "Let her in." ”

Moon Ripple strode into the threshold, and behind her was a slender woman covered in black veil, who couldn't see the whole picture of the woman, but she could see her eyes that were so sharp that people didn't dare to look at them directly.

Cen Xi didn't raise his head, and his tone was obviously displeased, "Moon Ripple, it's just an injury, it's been raised for so long?" ”

Being said so, Yue Lianyi's face was very unsightly, but she didn't directly contradict Cen Xi, her tone was a little depressed,

"I was not lightly injured last time, and it is understandable that I returned to Yuelan Country to recuperate, but you only let people send half of the supplies this month, do you know that people will die in this winter?"

Cen Xi was not in a hurry, and did not put down the silver spoon in his hand, "Half of it is already very good, you ask yourself, is the favor you helped worth so much food and clothing?" ”

"You... Our gems...! Yue Lianyi couldn't get angry when she wanted to, and she could only stare at Cen Xi dryly.

Their Yuelan Kingdom is now short of food and clothing, and in winter, if there is no Cen Xi to help, the entire Yuelan Kingdom does not know how difficult it will be.

The key is that in the past, they could still go to various countries to buy grain, but since Cen Xi controlled the entire grain business and clothing business, they could only be inferior and get what they needed from Cen Xi.

"Rest assured, Holy Maiden!" It was the woman behind Moon Ripple who spoke.

Cen Xi paid attention to the woman at this time, and he couldn't help but ask, and the moon ripples suppressed the momentum and turned to introduce it seriously,

"This is Lord Yuelan Witch, my witchcraft is all taught by Lord Witchcraft!"

In a short sentence, Cen Xi's interest was raised, he put down the silver spoon in his hand and hooked the corners of his lips, "Oh? It turned out to be the famous wizard Bai Yuyan, fortunately! ”

Bai Yuyan didn't take off her veil, she bowed slightly to Cen Xi with the etiquette of Yuelan Kingdom, "I came to assist the Holy Maiden on the order of the empress, and I also asked the benefactor to look at the empress's face and make up for the other half of Yuelan's supplies." ”

Cen Xi smiled like a cunning fox, "Your empress is really very sincere, then don't let me down." ”

After Bai Yuyan and Yue Ripple came out, they prepared to go back to their small courtyard.

Along the way, Moon Ripple complained, "It's really annoying, we also took a lot of gems to exchange food with him, and he actually called us as people." ”

Bai Yuyan has always been steady, "Holy Maiden, be cautious!" After reminding her, she said, "Now the material is the most important, otherwise Yuelan Kingdom doesn't know how many people will starve to death this winter." ”

Yue Ripple wanted to vent but couldn't find a partner, and after a period of depression, "My lord, this is the first time you come to the Central Plains, why don't you have Ripple accompany you around?" ”

"It's good!"

Although Bai Yuyan's trip came on the surface, in fact, the real purpose was only clear to her, in addition to helping the empress secretly find the whereabouts of the emperor, there was also a private matter, which was to find out the cause of death of her friend Qin Jian.

The two of them walked down the street with several attendants of Yuelan Country behind them, and when a pot-bellied but richly dressed oil-headed man passed by with two young girls in his arms, Bai Yuyan's body was slightly to the side, and she glanced at that place with disgust.

Seeing this, Yue Lianyi said, "My lord, this place is not as good as our Yuelan, the men here are like this, they can have three wives and four concubines." ”

Bai Yuyan didn't speak, Yue Lianyi wanted to take this opportunity to win over Bai Yuyan, so that her chances of becoming the emperor would be greater.

"Adults don't have to pay attention to these here, wait a few days to return to Yuelan, there are still a few handsome sons in the Ripple Mansion, they are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, unlike ordinary men, and they can be sent to the Adult's Mansion to relieve the boredom of the Adult."

Bai Yuyan's pupils shrank, and her tone was as cold and polite as before, "The saint doesn't have to be like this, the minister's mansion is too small to accommodate so many people, these people are still kept by the saint herself!" ”

After saying this, Bai Yuyan walked away, leaving only Moon Ripple and a group of people standing in the wind messy.

It took a long time for Moon Ripple to react, "She... Is she clearly rejecting this palace? ”

A maid behind him answered, "Lord Witch has always been like this, and he is cold to everyone, maybe..."

Moon Ripple said unwillingly, "Hmph! Even without her, sooner or later, the position of the imperial maiden will also belong to the palace! ”

That being said, but at the moment, Yue Ripple can't tear her face with Bai Yuyan, she shouldn't make enemies now, and she still has to do some work on the surface.

So, she had to lead someone to chase after her unwillingly.

"Wait for me, sir."

In an inconspicuous place in the streets and alleys, a woman wrapped in tattered linen clothes curled up there, holding a blackened steamed bun in her dirty hands. The head was gobbling up, and before she could bite two bites, a group of people called Hanako came and punched and kicked her, scolding while beating,

"Where did Hanako come from, who dared to beg on our territory?"

One of them is called Hanako will that manju. The head fell off, and he reached out and grabbed the woman's hair, forcing the woman to lift her head.

The woman's scalp hurt, and the face she exposed was covered with mud, and she couldn't see her original face clearly.

The woman was still swallowing the unswallowed steamed bun, her head was swallowing desperately, this action annoyed the flower child, and the next second, the woman was punched heavily in the face, and the woman screamed, blood and dirty steamed buns. Head crumbs splattered out of her mouth, and the half of her face immediately swelled.

But these Hanako were not resigned, and then a punch hit the woman's stomach again, and the woman screamed in pain. Hanako, the beater, scolded, "Little slut, do you know that the things you are begging for in this area must be handed in, let's teach you the rules today!" ”

"Please... Please don't hit me! The woman was so weak that she managed to say this.

But where will those people listen, punching her in the stomach one by one, until she is embarrassed to eat the steamed buns. The head spat out, and the group refused to give up, throwing her to the ground like a rag doll.

The woman was lying on the ground dying, and when she saw the cloth bag falling not far away, she suddenly had the strength to crawl over and get it.

Finally got the bag back in her hand, Nalan Yanqin hurriedly opened the bag and took out the stone to take a look, maybe the group of people called Huazi just now saw that it was just a stone, so they didn't throw it here directly.

In the eyes of others, this is just a stone, but in her opinion, as long as it is something on Nan Qiao's body, it will definitely not be as simple as a stone, it must be an important thing on Nan Qiao's body, she doesn't believe it, it is useless at all.

Nalan Yanqin was about to put the stone back into the bag, her wrist was held, and when she looked up, she saw a woman in black and red clothes squatting in front of her, she was covered with black veil, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and in her eyes, there were disbelief and shock, and there were many complicated emotions in them.

Nalan Yanqin doesn't know the origin of this woman, she is now a wanted criminal in the imperial court, if she is recognized, she will definitely be arrested and executed by Ling Chi, she doesn't want to die, she can't die, even if she survives, she has to avenge Nalan Mansion.

"This is mine, don't grab a stone from me, called Hanako!" She struggled back with her hands, trying to shrink but couldn't, still being held tightly.

"This is yours?" Bai Yuyan asked in an accentuated tone as if she hadn't heard what she had just said.

"It's mine, let it go!" Nalan Yanqin replied without thinking about it.

At this time, Yue Lianyi and others arrived, and it was a little unbelievable to see this scene, the witch attendant, who had always been high, actually grabbed the hand of this one named Hanako, so Yue Lianyi came up indiscriminately and kicked Nalan Yanqin to the ground.

"Where did you come from called Hanako, and you can correct it. Entangled? ”

Nalan Yanqin was already injured a lot, and Yue Ripple's kick used her lethal force again, she couldn't bear it for a while, and fainted after snorting in pain a few times.

"Hmph, you deserve it!" Moon Ripple said coldly.

She thought that Bai Yuyan would be grateful for her move, but she didn't expect a sharp gaze to shoot, Bai Yuyan said,

"What is this doing, saint?"

"My lord, this is called Hanako's dirty, how can I deserve it..."

Before she finished speaking, she was coldly interrupted by Bai Yuyan, "The holy woman seems to be in charge of too much!" ”

After saying this, Bai Yuyan no longer looked at the moon ripples, but turned her eyes to look at Nalan Yanqin who had fainted, she reached out and brushed away the hair that Nalan Yanqin was pasting on her face, looked at the face carefully, and the next second Bai Yuyan ordered,

"Someone, take her back to my place!"
