Chapter Seventy-One: A Hundred Miles of Silence
In the afternoon of the same day, Nan Huaifeng finalized the champion candidate.
"There have never been two champions, right?" Jiang Ziyu weighed whether this could be done, but Nan Huaifeng pulled him to the garden, and he should take a walk just after eating.
"No, no, anyway, the court is in charge of me right now, and it's not what I say?" Today, Nan Huaifeng can see one thing clearly, and he shouldn't be too polite to those civil officials, so used to them daring to say anything.
Jiang Ziyu thought about it, but they didn't agree, as long as Nan Huaifeng took the jade seal and stamped it, it was useless for others to say anything.
"It's been a long time, Yuna hasn't come back yet." Jiang Ziyu frowned, Nan Chenqing didn't look like such a disproportionate person, they had dinner late today, and they should have come back when it was dark.
Nan Huaifeng raised his eyebrows and asked casually, "Yuna is out?" ”
"Yes, Nan Chenqing looked for her, saying that she would come back later, but she should come back now." Jiang Ziyu was thinking about the time in his heart, thinking back to the past when Nan Chenqing took Yuna out, and it seemed that none of them returned late.
"Seventh? Recently, a new theater has opened in the capital, it is a troupe from the south, Lao Qi has always passed recently, if you are not at ease, we will go there to see, maybe we can find them. Nan Huaifeng thought about taking Jiang Ziyu out for a walk, he was busy with the government and military camp every day, and he rarely had the opportunity to go out with her.
Jiang Ziyu nodded and said, "Well, let's go and have a look." ”
The two changed into inconspicuous casual clothes, Jiang Ziyu wore a red black long skirt and narrow pants, the red waist band outlined the thin waist to the fullest, and the hair was high and looked heroic. Nan Huaifeng prefers dark robes, especially dark colors. This is inseparable from his perennial border passes, after all, in the barracks, he still has to wear dirt-resistant robes.
Nan Huaifeng took Jiang Ziyu straight to the newly opened theater building, Jiang Ziyu looked up at the plaque of the theater building, and chuckled: "This name is interesting, Huangliang Dream Pavilion." ”
The two went in together, and the stage was set up on the first floor, singing lively and lively above, and whispering below. Jiang Ziyu searched around and didn't find Nan Chenqing, Morning Star asked Xiao Er for hospitality, and Xiao Er took them to the private room where Nan Chenqing was.
Unexpectedly, there was no Yuna in the private room, and Qu Yan was sitting next to Nan Chenqing.
Jiang Ziyu's face was slightly gloomy, he glanced at Qu Yan lightly, and said to Nan Chenqing: "Something." ”
Nan Chenqing lowered her eyes, was silent for a moment, and said softly: "Yan'er, you go back first." ”
Qu Yan bit her lip and glanced at Jiang Ziyu hesitantly, got up and sat down next to her, stretched out her hand and carefully pulled Nan Chenqing's sleeve, and said, "I don't want to go back." ”
Nan Chenqing looked at Jiang Ziyu with some embarrassment, Jiang Ziyu's eyes were obscure, Nan Huaifeng stretched out his hand to hold her, and said in a deep voice: "You didn't go to the court today just to see her?" ”
Nan Chenqing's eyes were empty, Jiang Ziyu reacted, turned around and went out. Nan Huaifeng glanced at it meaninglessly, and then followed out.
"Yuna has been tricked out, let Morningstar go and transfer troops." Jiang Ziyu felt that this matter was inseparable from Qu Yan, why was it so coincidental that Yuna was missing, and Qu Yan was by Nan Chenqing's side again.
Nan Huaifeng snorted, Jiang Ziyu leaned on the stands on the second floor, lowered his eyes and looked at the singing drama on the stage, and suddenly met one of them.
"That person ......" Jiang Ziyu opened his mouth lowly, and continued to stare at him with some uncertainty, Nan Huaifeng felt that something was wrong, and asked sideways, "What's wrong?" ”
Jiang Ziyu raised his chin and said softly: "The person who plays Yang Guifei is a man. ”
"That's right, isn't it normal for Qiandan Kunsheng?" Nan Huaifeng doesn't think there's anything wrong, aren't all singing like this? It doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman, as long as the singing is good and the performance is true, it's good.
Jiang Ziyu shook his head, tapped his finger lightly a few times, and said, "I seem to have seen that man." ”
"You've seen the portrait, haven't you? Many of the makeup of this troupe's singing and painting are based on portraits. Nan Huaifeng also took two more glances at the play, but he couldn't see it familiar.
Jiang Ziyu pondered and didn't speak, it stands to reason that her memory shouldn't be wrong. Seeing that she was thinking seriously, Nan Huaifeng wrinkled his brows and said, "Didn't you accidentally see this person, so you wrote it down?" ”
After Nan Huaifeng said this, Jiang Ziyu's brain flashed, and his eyes sank: "He is the man in white who met on the street that day, how can he sing here?" ”
"Are you sure?" Nan Huaifeng was a little surprised, killers are so versatile now? still choked to sing......
Jiang Ziyu nodded, almost certainly, once the man's eyes remembered, he couldn't forget it: "I'm sure, you send someone to find Yuna, and I'll meet him." ”
Saying that Jiang Ziyu was about to go downstairs, Nan Huaifeng grabbed her, and just about to say something, he heard Jiang Ziyu say: "Yuna's matter can't be delayed, if this matter really has something to do with Qu Yan, then she may be in danger of her life." ”
After that, Jiang Ziyu hurried downstairs, because the Wutong rain had already been sung, and the actors also went off the stage. Jiang Ziyu was afraid that he would run away, so he hurriedly chased after him.
Nan Huaifeng's face was unhappy, and he stared at Jiang Ziyu's back with a bad expression.
"Lord Wang......" Chenxing saw that the prince was in a bad mood and shouted cautiously. Nan Huaifeng's face was calm, full of clouds, and he spoke with a little anger: "Seal the city, search door to door, let the Shuntian Mansion of Dali Temple and the government at all levels send people to search for me, and don't come back if you can't find anyone." ”
Chenxing said in his heart - it's over, the prince is angry and wants to anger others.
The first one to suffer was Nan Chenqing in the private room, who was originally recounting the old relationship with Qu Yan, when an impatient knock on the door sounded, and when he raised his eyes, Nan Huaifeng stood there in displeasure, opened his mouth and drove Qu Yan away directly, and then asked him to go out to find Yuna.
"Someone tricked Yuna out in my name?" Nan Chenqing was a little surprised, is Yuna a fool? Wouldn't it be strange not to see him?
Nan Huaifeng hummed in a deep voice, and impatiently asked him to go out to find someone, Nan Chenqing didn't have the eyesight to see it, and asked more: "What about the imperial sister-in-law?" Weren't you still together just now? ”
Nan Huaifeng's face became even more dusty, and the Seventh Prince finally realized that the atmosphere was wrong, and hurriedly covered his mouth and ran away. The fire in Nan Huaifeng's heart can't be suppressed, this Jiang Ziyu is really ...... ran to find another man in front of herself, why is she so big-hearted?
Jiang Ziyu didn't know that Nan Huaifeng was angry, and now she was concentrating on looking for the man in white. She felt that the man in white must know something, what was the secret of the secret weapon he took last time, how could he, an assassin, swagger appear in the theater?
Jiang Ziyu was full of questions, chased him all the way to the backyard, and found that the people who sang the opera were gone.
"Are you looking for me?" A voice suddenly came from behind, and Jiang Ziyu was startled coldly, but she still turned around without changing her face, and found that the man in white was close to her.
Jiang Ziyu subconsciously took two steps back, the man in white was still wearing a costume, and his makeup had not been removed, he looked at her with his hands on his chest, and chuckled: "The last time I saw you, I found that you were different, and if you took your breath and closed your eyes, you really couldn't find me." ”
"Who the hell are you?" Jiang Ziyu was secretly surprised in his heart, this person only saw her once, and found out her weakness.
The man in white had a little loneliness in his eyes, but when he raised his eyes to look at Jiang Ziyu, he brought a ray of light: "My name is Baili Lone, remember my name." ”
After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave, Jiang Ziyu did not hesitate to wrap his wrist with heavenly silk, with coldness in his eyes: "I didn't ask your name, those people with bows and arrows last time were your people, right?" Who came to you? What is the purpose? ”
"Don't be so ruthless, I'm also the one who spared your life, so be more polite to me." Bai Li Lin looked at the heavenly silk on his wrist and did not panic, still smiling lightly.
Jiang Ziyu narrowed his eyes, with undisguised murderous intent and indifference in his eyes. Baili Lin hooked his lips and chuckled, and continued: "Are you looking for a foreign woman, wearing the clothes of the Chu State, I remember that she is dressed in red, her hair is slightly curly, and she looks quite beautiful." ”
"Have you seen her?" Jiang Ziyu had some doubts in his heart, how could he have seen Yuna? Does this still have anything to do with him? Could it be that he is the helper found by the Queen Mother's party? But why did she tell her this?
Bai Li Lin looked at her reaction and felt funny, this woman was really smart, surprisingly smart: "She is in the ruined temple outside the east gate of the Beijing suburbs, if you don't go quickly, I'm afraid it will be too late." ”
Jiang Ziyu was still a little hesitant, what if this was a trap?
"Don't worry, I don't want to attack you for the time being, if I want to harm you, you will be dead the last time we met." Bai Li Lin saw her concerns and truthfully informed her thoughts.
Jiang Ziyu frowned slightly, collected the silk, turned around and walked out of the courtyard and went straight to the east city gate. Baili Lin looked at her chic back, and there was some darkness in his eyes.
"Shuang'er, Chen Yuanwai invites you to sing in his house." The troupe master hurried over from a distance, and Baili Lin recovered the emotionless person in his eyes, and said lightly: "My throat is uncomfortable, push it." ”
The troupe owner was a little anxious, took his hand and said: "You insist on coming to the capital, now that you have come to the capital, you should use some heart, although this troupe is still prosperous in the capital, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no downfall, you know more rich gentry officials, there will be no mistake." ”
"If you don't go, you won't go, if the class master is so anxious, wouldn't it be more sincere to go over in person?" There was some disgust in Baili Lone's eyes, and the troupe owner's face was a little ugly when he heard this, and he scolded him as he walked: "Phew! It's just that he relied on his figure to pick up Joe, why wasn't he so tough when he was in a hurry to tie up? ”
"A drama is a drama, in the end, it is a lowly embryo, and he doesn't look at his own background, so he deserves to pretend here?"
The more the words were scolded, the more ugly they became, and Baili was silent as if he hadn't heard it, so he calmly went back to his room to change his clothes.
