There was a hint of a smile floating on the corner of Mo Maoli's mouth, and the smile was strange and unpredictable. He was holding the letter given to him by the Imperial Detective, and on the table was the calligraphy and painting of Zhang Xi'an that Zhang Momo had given him.

The words on the letter were compared with the words on the calligraphy and paintings, and Mo Maoli believed that the handwriting on the letter must have been written by Zhang Xing, even if it was not ten, but it was eight points.

In this way, it can be categorically proved that the person who secretly wants to target him in the Qianguo Mansion must be Zhang Xi'ang in the Ministry of War.

But Mo Maoli couldn't think of it for a while, Zhang Xiang and his Qianguo Mansion did not have a deep hatred, why is this?

The trees are overgrown and the grass is abundant.

Mo Maoli stared at the grass and trees in the cold wind, stood under the tree in front of the courtyard, and pondered for a long time. With a deep uneasiness in his heart, he turned around and sat down in the house, and wrote a secret letter for his subordinates to send back to the Qianguo Mansion in Yunnan as soon as possible.

In the courtyard of the Ling Mansion. The white stone mountain, the mountain and the waterfall, the moss on it is spotted, and the vine is covered. The white stone is the railing, surrounding the edge of the pool, the eaves pavilion by the pool, and the man in the pavilion is full of sorrow when he drinks alone.

Kumquat in a green shirt stood aside, silent, just secretly speculating about what happened to the third young master?

Since yesterday, Ling Xinan has been locked in the study for several hours, not eating or drinking, and I don't know what to do. As soon as I came out today, I ate and drank heavily. At this moment, it is already the third pot of wine.

Mrs. Ling knocked on the door of the study yesterday and asked why she didn't have to eat, Ling Xinan was furious, furious in the house, and shouted, "Starve yourself!" ”

Mrs. Ling couldn't figure it out, no one in the house had provoked him, and the master hadn't scolded him for anything, why did he suddenly soar?

After pondering, Ling Xinan's mood could change so much, Mrs. Ling only thought of that woman, the cousin of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It seems that there is something unpleasant between the two. That's right, Mrs. Ling suddenly understood that the Prime Minister sent an invitation, and Miss Liu and Zhang Jianxiu were about to get married.

Mrs. Ling didn't dissuade her again, but added fuel to the fire outside the door, "It's also a good story for Miss Liu and Jian Xiu to get married, the invitations have been sent, they are talented and beautiful, they are a natural pair, we have to bless them well, Xinan, you bless it too." ”

At that time, Kumquat was really stuffy and didn't dare to say much, and she was very worried when she saw Mrs. Ling being so angry with her son outside the door.

The son was unhappy, but Mrs. Ling was happy. How can there be such a mother.

After Mrs. Ling left, Kumquat waited outside Ling Xinan's study, listening quietly inside, thinking that the third young master would throw something inside to vent, but there was no movement in the middle of the sound, and she couldn't even feel if there was anyone inside.

Kumquat was worried that the third young master would do something stupid, so she killed herself and knocked on the door hard, but the door was tightly closed, and she was about to crash open in a panic, when the door suddenly opened, and Kumquat crashed into Ling Xinan's arms, and bumped into her arms, making her blush subconsciously.

She hurriedly stepped back and asked nervously, "Young Master, how are you?" ”

Ling Xinan's face was expressionless, his eyebrows and eyes were low, as if he had lost half of his soul, and he muttered to himself, "It's impossible, it's impossible anymore......"

This sentence has been said countless times, and it makes people feel extremely bleak.

"Third young master......" Kumquat's tears fell.

He ignored her, and sat at the desk like a wanderer, just sitting in a daze, his eyes glazed, doing nothing, for a long time, until it was dark, and it was late at night.

Ling Yunyi glanced at it in the dark, ignored it at the door, didn't ask or say anything, just glanced and left. Before leaving, tell Kumquat, "Guard him well." ”

Kumquat could only respond respectfully.

After keeping watch all night, Ling Xinan was as stiff as a statue, not eating, drinking, or sleeping. Kumquat was so sleepy that she dozed off, and suddenly woke up in the morning to find the young master lying on the desk and asleep.

Finally tired.

Kumquat breathed a sigh of relief, put a thick layer of mink on Ling Xinan's body, and left quietly, wanting him to have a good rest. I don't want to, after the young master woke up, he didn't cherish his body so much.

Mrs. Ling and Master Ling didn't come to dissuade them, so they let the young master disappear and torture themselves.

Since yesterday, Ling Xinan has not said a word, and it is the same at this time, although she is silent, Kumquat understands in her heart that the young master must be because Miss Liu is going to get married, if not, what else can it be.

"Kumquat, isn't this young master not good-looking, not as good as that Jian Xiu?" Ling Xinan asked suddenly.

Kumquat came back to her senses in a daze, pulled back her spirit from the contemplation just now, and replied to him with a surprised face, "What did the young master say, I don't know how many women in the capital and all over the country admire the young master." ”

And so it was, and there were countless women who admired him, including her.

It seems that the young master is really getting married because of Miss Liu.

Because of his face or because of his talent? Does it really make many women admire, but why is she the only one, but she doesn't care anymore.

But if she still cared, what would he do. Why did he get drunk that night and do that shameful thing, how should he face her. What else is there to face?

After Ling Xinan drank a glass of wine, he coughed several times, coughing so that his eyes were misty and tearful.

"Young master, stop drinking." Kumquat went to stop it.

Ling Xinan's face was very ugly, and he shook the hand of the kumquat who came to grab the cup, and sneered, "If you are like this, you can also leave, and you don't need to stay here." ”

Kumquat withdrew her hand and stayed aside obediently, not daring to say any more. If she also leaves, how desolate he must be alone.

On the bluestone road, the second young master Ling Xiyue walked slowly, and his eyes fell on the lonely back.

Kumquat is busy with blessings.

Ling Xiyue waved her hand lightly to let her leave, and he came to accompany Ling Xinan. Kumquat understood, glanced at Ling Xinan before walking away.

"Why, I want to drink myself to death." Ling Xiyue's eyes were full of seriousness, and he sat down in front of Ling Xinan.

Ling Xinan just raised his eyes and looked at the second brother, didn't want to speak, and lowered his eyes and reached out to get the wine jug.

"When did you become so self-conscious?" Ling Xiyue looked at Ling Xinan with a dark look in his eyes.

"Second brother, if you want to stay here and have a drink." Ling Xinan said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, you will leave too." ”

Ling Xiyue snorted lightly, "You like Miss Liu so much in your heart?" ”

Ling Xinan raised his deep eyes, smiled indifferently, and laughed with mockery, "The second brother hasn't loved anyone yet, if the second brother also has a sweetheart, you will know that Xinan is so painful in her heart." ”

Ling Xinan smiled, laughed drunkenly, and smiled lightly, "Second brother, you are not too young, you should try, try ......"

Ling Xiyue snorted coldly again, "Even if I tried, I wouldn't try to be like you." ”

Ling Xinan didn't believe it, he was so funny, he shook his head with laughter, "Then the second brother hurry up and find a woman to try, let Xinan take a look." ”

The corners of Ling Xiyue's mouth pulled out a playful smile, "It will let you see clearly." ”

The two smiled, and Ling Xinan was in a better mood.

But Ling Xiyue said suddenly, "I said you, if you are really reluctant to do this, she will go and snatch it back." ”

These words made Ling Xinan fall into a tangled cold again.

～～～～～～～～～

In the imperial palace, there is a black gold silk nanmu plaque hanging at the top of the red vermilion lacquer gate, and the three words "imperial study" are inscribed on it.

Emperor Zhu Yijun was holding his head with one hand, contemplating something with a strange expression.

Zhou An, the eunuch who was waiting in the imperial study, lowered his eyes to the side.

Yu Yue, the personal eunuch beside the emperor, gave Zhou An a look, and Zhou An immediately understood and brought a cup of hot tea.

Yu Yue took the cup of tea from Zhou An's hand and put it in front of the emperor, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, use tea." ”

Zhu Yijun put down the hand supporting his head, picked up the teacup and lifted the lid when he was in a trance. Yu Yue understood the emperor's thoughts, and observing words and emotions was his always strong point, so he was even liked by the emperor.

"The emperor is worried about the marriage of Miss Liu and the commander."

The emperor glanced at Yu Yue and said coldly, "You can see everything." ”

"The emperor doesn't want Miss Liu to marry the commander, so it's better to think of a way to make it impossible to get married that day." Yu Yue offered his opinion.

The words seemed to wake up the emperor, and the emperor extended a thumbs up to Yu Yue. But suddenly he thought of something and lowered his eyebrows, "Jian Xiu is the son of Xiangguo, Xiangguo is my emperor, can I treat Xiangguo like this?" ”

Yu Yue complimented the taboo that the emperor had long had in his heart, "Does the emperor really care about Xiangguo's face?" ”

A sentence came to the emperor's heart, and the emperor's face sank, although this sentence had already made a taboo, but he was not angry with Yu Yue.

Yu Yue knew his heart very well.

The affairs of the court, Xiangguo is majestic, the queen mother and the factory governor Feng Bao are also quite agreeable, he is an emperor who lets Xiangguo everywhere, and he has long complained in his heart. That disrespect has long existed in my heart, but it is only because of the emperor's face and the ability of the country that I don't care.

But after all, he is the emperor, and he shouldn't take Xiangguo's words as the principle of everything he does.

Yu Yue's sentence "You don't have to care about Xiangguo's face" seemed to make him have this idea.

However, after thinking about it, he still felt that for the time being, he couldn't be too open-minded.

The emperor sighed lightly, "You can't be too clear about Xiangguo, you know." ”

Zhou An, who was listening on the side, respectfully whispered his opinion, "When the day comes, the emperor will send the commander to the capital." ”

The emperor stood up from the chair suddenly, his eyebrows and eyes smiled, "Zhou An said very much," the emperor smiled with satisfaction, "How can the groom get married when the groom is not on the wedding day?" ”

The emperor laughed, "Zhou An, this is a good idea, there is a reward." ”

Zhou An hurriedly saluted, "Thank you to the emperor, it is the honor of a slave to share the emperor's worries." ”

After calming down, the emperor meditated, and what made Jian Xiu leave the capital. If you can't show the dew, you have to go.

Yu Yue saw what the emperor meant, and Zhou An also understood.

As night fell, the countryside was pitch black. A eunuch disguised himself as an ordinary person, hurriedly walked into the forest.

After a while, but listening to the gentle sound of the wind in the forest, a woman dressed in red floated down from the treetops, the woman's face was covered with a black scarf, and she couldn't see her face clearly, but her cold and charming eyes were not to be underestimated.

She landed firmly in front of the eunuch, who was busy with the blessing of his lower body.

"You're looking for me?" The woman in red said coldly.

The eunuch lowered his eyebrows and did not dare to look at the woman's face, and said in a soft but extremely cautious voice, "The emperor is not in Xiangguo, he is jealous, but he also wants to go against it." commanded the big wedding of Lord Zhang, and the emperor will want to break it, because of Miss Liu. ”

The woman in red was stunned for a moment, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, obviously understanding.

"Zhou An, this girl has already found Luhe's family for you, in Huayin County."

When Zhou An heard this, he thanked him and said busily, "Zhou An is here to thank the girl for the great kindness of the green lotus." ”
