Qingsleeve and Bizhu's cheeks were slightly red, with some panic, both of them were much older than Mu Yunlan, many times they served her as a master, and they loved her as a sister, and they felt sorry for her to support the heavy responsibility of the third room at a young age, and also to take care of her younger brother, always unconsciously wanted to do more things for her, and when they heard this sentence of hard work, they only felt that there was a warmth from the bottom of their hearts, which made them a little overwhelmed.

After a while, the two of them restrained their thoughts, Qingsleeve helped Mu Yunlan pack her luggage, and asked, "Miss, if you go to Yunrou this time, will the prince also go?" ”

"If he wants to sit in Yunnan, he is naturally inseparable."

"Then ......" Qing Sleeve asked with some hesitation, "What about the Feng Pavilion Master?" ”

"Senior brother said that he would accompany me, and there is also a second brother, you, just wait here honestly for me to come back, in two days, my uncle will bring Yun Fan back, you can help me take care of him, he has to go through bumps at a young age, it is really not easy."

For the safety of Mu Yunfan, Lin Zi'an did not bring him into the imperial capital, but handed him over to his two sons to raise him temporarily.

"Yes, miss, don't worry, we will definitely take care of the little master."

Qingsleeve wanted to say a few more words, but he felt Bizhu gently pull his sleeve, and when he turned around, he saw Yue Jingxuan standing at the door, and hurriedly saluted and retreated.

Mu Yunlan paused, narrowed her eyes slightly, and her expression was a little gloomy.

Yue Jingxuan walked in lightly, and when he saw her appearance, his eyes were full of distress: "Yun Lan." ”

Mu Yunlan turned around, with a smile on her face, as if the dimming just now was just an illusion: "Uncle Huang, it won't take long to come back from Yunrou this time, you don't have to worry too much about me, but you, now the court sees you as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, plus you have won the hearts of the people several times in a row, the higher your prestige among the people, the more the court will not tolerate you, you have to ......"

"Yun Lan ......" Yue Jingxuan looked at her softly, seeing that she had dodge in her eyes, she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart, although Yun Lan remembered the past, but there was still some estrangement between them, "Because of the urgency of time, the personnel team has been assembled, and we will set off early tomorrow morning, when there are too many people, you and I have no chance to speak alone, so I will come to see you today!" ”

Mu Yunlan nodded slightly: "Uncle Huang, don't worry, I will be careful all the way to Yunrou, and bring you back cattle, sheep and grain, so that the Yunnan soldiers can attack the imperial capital without any worries." ”

"I naturally believe in you, but as a husband, I hope you can return safely."

Mu Yunlan had avoidance in her eyes: "Uncle Huang, I ......"

"I asked people to make some side dishes, and you and I can drink two cups and practice it for you alone."

Seeing that he had changed the subject, Mu Yunlan breathed a sigh of relief: "...... Good. ”

On the stone table under the magnolia tree, there are four simple side dishes and a pot of sake, which looks extremely simple.

Mu Yunlan and Yue Jingxuan sat opposite each other, looking at the simple side dishes on the table, a trace of warmth flashed in their eyes, such a simple scene was like an ordinary husband and wife, but it made her feel more at ease than a table full of delicious food.

Picking up the wine jug and filling it, Mu Yunlan raised her wine glass: "Uncle Huang, I toast you." She originally wanted to find some reason to toast, but after thinking about it for a while, she couldn't find a suitable one, so she simply didn't look for it.

Yue Jingxuan smiled on his face, his expression was gentle and elegant, and there was a clear spring in his deep eyes, reflecting Mu Yunlan's figure: "Yunlan, thank you." ”

"Thank me?" Mu Yunlan blinked, a little puzzled in her heart, "Why does Uncle Huang want to thank me?" ”

"Actually, this thank you has been hidden in my heart for a long time, if it weren't for you, I am afraid that I would have died in the poison of the red flame, cold and snow, and after that, you sacrificed a lot to save me......"

Mu Yunlan lowered her eyes slightly, and gently turned the wine glass in her hand with her fingers: "Uncle Huang, if you are transposed, the person who was poisoned is me, you will definitely treat me like this, how can I thank you?" ”

Yue Jingxuan raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup, forcibly suppressing the bitterness in his heart: "Then everything is in plain sight." ”

Mu Yunlan breathed a sigh of relief gently, after remembering all the past, he was afraid that Uncle Huang would bring up the old matter again and let her make the final choice, although she had thought of a way out, but now was not the time to explain everything.

After a few glasses of sake, both of them were a little drunk, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed than just now.

Yue Jingxuan said softly: "Yun Lan, you didn't just go this time to make this deal, right?" I always feel that you have something on your mind, and grandpa is also worried. ”

Mu Yunlan was silent for a long time, nodded and said: "Indeed, I went this time, there is another purpose, that is, I want to go to see the battlefield of my father's death, my grandfather once told me before his death, he said that if he has the opportunity, he will definitely go to the battlefield where his father once was, maybe he can find a piece of his father's bones." ”

After his father's death, the bones were not found, so he could only build a mound in Xianyue Mountain, and his grandfather's most regrettable thing was that he couldn't bring his father home completely, and now that he has the opportunity to go to Yunrou, she will not miss it.

On the magnolia tree beside him, petals fell from time to time, Mu Yunlan propped her head, looked up at a bunch of white and snowy flowers, and her voice was like a sigh: "It's so beautiful!" ”

Yue Jingxuan looked at the magnolia tree, and then fell on Mu Yunlan: "It's very good-looking." "I just don't know if it's good-looking, is it a flower or a person who praises it?

The wine in the pot was exhausted, Mu Yunlan got up and stretched: "Uncle Huang, I am full of wine and food, I should go back to rest, and I will leave early tomorrow morning!" ”

"Hmm."

Mu Yunlan turned around, her sight that was still misty just now instantly became sober, she showed a slightly bitter smile, swayed her steps slightly, and slowly returned to the room.

Yue Jingxuan stared at her figure until the door was closed, and then withdrew his gaze and looked up at the gazebo not far away.

On the corner of the pavilion, Feng Jingyu leaned on the edge, holding the wine jar in his hand, looking up at the full moon in the sky, and noticed Yue Jingxuan's gaze, his eyes instantly turned cold.

Afraid that speaking would make Mu Yunlan hear, the two of them did not make a sound in tacit understanding, but the momentum around them was exaggerated to the extreme, and the two extremely cold breaths collided together, making Da Bai, who was lying under the pavilion, stand up violently, turning back and forth vigilantly, and let out a whining roar in his throat.

Suddenly, Mu Yunlan's voice came from the room: "Dabai, be quiet." ”

The two of them suddenly restrained the momentum on their bodies, each glanced at each other unwillingly, and turned to leave.

Early the next morning, Mu Yunlan got up and came to the main hall of the front courtyard of the palace, which was already full of people.

Mu Yunlan motioned for everyone to be exempt, looked up, and saw Uncle Wen Yu standing in the crowd, her eyes were instantly full of surprise: "Uncle Wen Yu, when did you come back?" ”

"Miss Hui's words, I received a letter from the emperor, and I hurried back overnight." Wen Yu's cold and hard face was a little more relaxed, and he saluted respectfully to Mu Yunlan, in his heart, Mu Yunlan was the general's concubine, their young lady, not Princess Ning'an.

The people around looked at Wen Yu with a hint of fear in their eyes, when the princess had an accident, this killing god took a few brothers under him, and killed a large number of Zhan family guards, and the city lord at that time was strictly forbidden to Zhaotong City, and the whole city searched for this person, but in the end, he didn't even see a single figure.

Li Yuanzhou and the others all had the intention of recruiting Wenyu, but it was a pity that this fierce general was only loyal to the princess.

"The prince has arrived."

"I've seen the prince."

"You are exempt, because this time the situation is special, this king can not practice for you at the gate of the city, can only wish you success with thin wine, and when you return, this king will definitely put on a feast to celebrate your achievements." Afraid of the sound of walking, Yun Rou's spies in Yunnan were alert, so they could only try to keep a low profile, and even when they went out of the city, these people needed to be divided into three groups.

"Thank you, Lord Wang!"

Mu Yunlan, Lin Ye and Feng Jingyu followed the second group out of the city.

"Grandpa, we will be back soon, I'm not here, you have to take care of yourself, if you want to play chess, go to the emperor...... Qingsleeve and Bizhu, both of them are also very smart, and they will definitely go to the next level under your teaching. Mu Yunlan's eyes were reluctant.

"Don't worry about me, but you, think calmly and twice when you encounter problems, don't be greedy for small profits, and be cautious in your words and deeds." The world is so big, it's good to go out early to have a fight, Lin Zi'an sighed with emotion, and took out a jade talisman, "You put away this jade talisman, if you see someone who also holds a jade talisman, you can contact it a little, maybe it will help you." ”

"Yes, Grandpa."

Lin Zi'an looked at Lin Ye, reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Protect your sister!" ”

"Yes, grandfather." Lin Ye nodded solemnly, even if he lost his life, he would try his best to keep Yunlan safe.

"Alright, grandfather is here waiting for you to return safely, go!"

Mu Yunlan nodded heavily, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Yue Jingxuan standing quietly on one side, and bit her lower lip involuntarily, but finally didn't say anything, turned around and strode away.

Yue Jingxuan involuntarily clenched his fists, a white jade buckle in his palm made his fingers hurt, and when he couldn't see Mu Yunlan's figure, he suppressed the pain in his heart, and turned his head to look at Yunchen and Yuheng.

The two quickly followed Mu Yunlan's footsteps.

The Yunrou grassland is vast, and there are many borders on the Dayong country, and in the early years, there were many merchants in the Dayong country who would transport goods to Yunrou to sell, but later, as the Yunrou iron horse became stronger and stronger, the interests of the merchants were not guaranteed, and gradually few people went.

Mu Yunlan and his entourage naturally couldn't find the leader of the Yunrou tribe directly, which might make them suspicious, so they sent five or six people into the territory of Yunrou in advance, and released the news that a merchant was going to do business in advance.
