Chapter Forty-Eight: See That Man Again
When Yu Zhiyan woke up from his sleep, it was already early in the morning, and Feng Huang didn't know when he left.
The futon beside her was already cold, and there was not even the faint smell of ink. She only felt empty in her heart, as if she had lost something.
He went to Huaiyin, but she didn't send him. Even though they are now a husband and wife who share the same bed, she still feels empty in her heart, and feels that she will never be able to hold him in her hands, and she will never be able to guess his thoughts.
After Yu Zhiyan finished washing, he went to Princess Nan'an's courtyard for breakfast, which were all home-cooked meals, but they were also full of color, flavor, and flavor.
As soon as she arrived in the house, she saw that Na Simo was rolling and playing there, and the sunlight fell on his long eyelashes through the screen, which looked very playful and cute.
When Princess Nan'an saw her coming, she hurriedly asked the little girls to set up the meal, and then beckoned to Si Mo, "Let's eat, aren't you hungry for a long time?" ”
Na Simo sat down on the table very obediently, as if he was a different person when he had a-for-tat confrontation with Yu Zhiyan before.
She couldn't help pouting, the princess didn't know that this guy was a man, she just thought it was a likable girl.
Yu Zhiyan had just eaten half of the rice, and her pretty brows suddenly wrinkled tightly. Could it be that the cook in the mansion beat the salt seller to death, why is it so salty.
But when she looked up, she saw that Si Mo was looking at her with bad intentions, and his eyes were full of pride after teasing her.
The princess was carrying a piece of meat to Si Mo's bowl, and when she saw the two people with complicated expressions, she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Yu Zhiyan suppressed his anger, "It's okay. ”
When Yu Zhiyan ate the food in the bowl, her tongue was almost salted, and she drank three bowls of tea before she could barely ease up.
Then she stopped Na Simo in the courtyard, "I heard Feng Huang say, why do you hate me like this." ”
"If only you knew." Si Mo's voice was full of disgust, as if he were a bedbug.
Yu Zhiyan looked at him deeply, his eyes were full of sincerity, "I hate him more than you, and I have the ability to bring him down in the future, you just ask me to go up and step on him together." ”
Si Mo didn't expect her to say such a thing, and her watery eyes were full of shock.
"I don't believe your nonsense, you sinister woman." After Si Mo finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Yu Zhiyan looked at his back, his bold steps, where did he look like a woman, how could he not notice it before.
When she returned to the house, the little maid had already come to her to ask for silver, and Yu Zhiyan was in charge of the accounts for the first time after all, and she was also in a hurry.
In the end, she didn't even have the 1,000 taels of silver that Feng Huang wanted.
Seeing her sad face, Jin'er hurriedly said: "If you really can't turn around, Miss, you might as well pawn some of the jewelry you married, and wait for the silver to redeem it in the future." ”
Yu Zhiyan sighed, "Look at the accounts of this palace, only those that flow out, and a few of them flow inside, as long as you take out the things, there is no time to come back." ”
Yu'er played the abacus properly on the side, "Now we only have eighty taels of silver in our house." ”
Yu Zhiyan put down the pen and paper in his hand, and then said, "Pack all this silver for me immediately, and bring a set of men's clothes." ”
Jin'er was stunned, "Miss didn't want to run away with the money." ”
Yu'er stuck out her tongue, "She must have itchy hands and is going to gamble again, didn't our second miss forget that she lost more than a thousand taels of silver in Jiangnan at the beginning." ”
Yu Zhiyan sighed, "I can't bear to let the child find a wolf, these dozens of taels of silver can't do anything, it's better to let me try my luck." ”
The walls in the backyard of the Nan'an Mansion were already a little loose, and Yu Zhiyan didn't know where to find a ladder and climbed up tremblingly.
As soon as she stood on the wall, she saw a young man sleeping on the glazed tiles.
When she took a closer look, it was Simona, who was very quiet when he was asleep, and his long eyelashes formed a silhouette and fell on his fair skin.
It was only when he slept that he put away his claws and fangs.
She had always seen him dressed as a girl, and now he looked a little strange in men's clothes. No wonder no one could see him dressed as a man and a woman before, he was very clever and smart, and he was young, so he was naturally difficult to recognize.
Yu Zhiyan originally wanted to jump down directly, not wanting to alarm this little Hades.
But after climbing up, I realized that the wall was low on the inside, but extremely high on the outside.
She could only slowly pull up the bamboo ladder behind her, but just halfway through, a gloomy voice came, "Where did the thief come from, dare to steal into the Nan'an Palace." ”
Yu Zhiyan stepped on the air, the ladder in her hand also fell, and a few glazed tiles under her feet also fell, and her whole person also fell backwards.
Just as her hands fluttered, her hands inevitably dragged Na Simo's arm, and the two of them fell straight down.
Fortunately, Yu Zhiyan fell on his body, except for a few tiles smashed on his body, there was no major problem.
However, Si Mo under her was not so lucky, and it took half a day to get up from the ground after being smashed by Yu Zhiyan.
When he saw Yu Zhiyan's face clearly, a trace of astonishment appeared on his immature face, and then he sneered, "What kind of dress are you?" ”
Only then did he see where Yu Zhenyan's belly was bulging, as if he was hiding something. He thought about it carefully, with her small body, she wouldn't hurt like she smashed, she must have real money in her stomach.
Thinking like this, he didn't care about Yu Zhiyan's face, and suddenly ripped off the belt of her clothes, only to see that there was indeed another heavy bag of silver in her stomach.
"You're a thief." Si Mo's little face was full of pride, "Let's go, follow me to the princess and see how she regulates you." ”
Yu Zhiyan didn't get angry when she saw that she missed the filling, "Okay, let's go find the princess and see if it was my stealing that shocked her or if you were a man." ”
Saying this, Si Mo really stopped, he looked at Yu Zhiyan, "Okay, let's see later." ”
Seeing that he was leaving, Yu Zhiyan hurriedly stretched out his hand to block in front of him.
Although he is younger than Yu Zheyan, he is half a head taller than Yu Zheyan.
"Get out." The boy's stubborn temper came up again.
Yu Zhiyan said slowly, "I want you to do me a favor, if you don't help, I will tell the princess that you are a man." ”
His fingers slowly touched the sword at his waist, his martial arts are high, he is afraid that he can make Yu Zhiyan die without a place to bury him in a moment.
"Don't forget, what you promised to seal the phoenix yesterday won't harm my life."
Si Mo looked at her with anger on his face, "What's the matter?" ”
——————
In the largest casino in Qingzhou, no one noticed that there were two handsome-faced men who were gambling in dire straits.
Especially the one who bets, keeps his eyes half-squinted, waits for the dice to land, and then bets the silver down.
But if he makes a small bet, he will lose, but if the bet is big, he will ensure that he will make a lot of money.
Si Mo originally came to join in the fun, but when he saw her hand him pieces of silver and silver tickets, his face suddenly became strange.
He took advantage of Yu Zhi's cigarette to drink tea and rest, and asked, "Do you listen to the dice, I see that your ears have been moving." ”
Yu Zhiyan was so frightened that he blocked his mouth all of a sudden, and then for fear that others would listen, he looked left and right for a long time.
Si Mo broke her hand and asked, "Then wouldn't it be easy for you to just press all the silver into it?" ”
Yu Zhiyan lowered his voice and said, "Judging from my previous gambling situation, that is too ostentatious, and you win so much money and want to get out, those people who run the casino may not let us go." ”
Si Mo said: "A few people have been staring at you for a long time just now, presumably you have been noticed." ”
Yu Zhiyan heard this, and hurriedly said, "How much silver have we won?" ”
"You won it, I didn't do anything like that." Si Mo rolled his eyes, "It's about nine hundred taels." ”
Yu Zhiyan patted him on the shoulder, "The last one, let's stop if we win." ”
After she finished speaking, she took a silver ticket of one hundred taels and squeezed into the crowd again, and soon her thin figure was drowned in the crowd.
After all, Si Mo was still young and liked to play, so he also squeezed in with her.
He stood beside Yu Zhiyan and saw the dice cup covering the board, and Yu Zhiyan slowly pressed the money on the big side.
However, soon the lid opened, some people in the crowd celebrated, some sighed again, and the one hundred taels of silver tickets from Yu Zhiyan were also taken away.
Si Mo sneered while snorting melon seeds: "Didn't you say the last one, it seems that I am still addicted to playing." ”
Who knew that Yu Zhiyan grabbed his arm, and his face turned pale, "Let's go." ”
He saw that her expression was wrong, so he hurriedly followed her out, but when he walked to the door, he was stopped by a man with oily hair and pink face, "I want to leave after winning so much money, so how can I do it." ”
Yu Zhiyan saw that there were five or six thugs beside him, and he was busy with a smile, "Today, my daughter-in-law gave birth to a child, and I will come back to play after giving birth." ”
Who knew that the man sneered, "If you don't go back, will the child become someone else's?" I'm telling you either you go back and play now, or you keep the money. ”
Yu Zhiyan just wanted to discuss with them and talk about the conditions. Who knew that Si Mo had already pulled out the sword on his body and stabbed straight at them.
She really made the right bet, and Simo would definitely help her a lot.
He worked very well, and soon fought his way out, and the oily guy was also knocked to the ground by him, rolling on the ground in pain. Then he shouted, "Come on." ”
Soon a few big men with meaty faces ran out of the room, and when Si Mo saw this, he pulled her thin arm and ran outside.
Two men ran out into the street, and those men with sticks chased after them.
Yu Zhiyan ran fast, and when he turned to a small alley, he gasped and said: "Forget it, you leave me alone, just let me fend for myself here, you give all the money to Fenghuang and let him go to help those poor victims." ”
But Si Mo nodded solemnly, "Okay." ”
He jumped onto the roof of the house and was soon gone.
She was suddenly half angry, and she didn't know if this kid was stupid and stupid, why was he so obedient.
From a distance, she seemed to hear the voice of the oily-haired man just now, "Search, search for me, if you find out, you have to kill the two of them." ”
Yu Zhiyan searched around, covered his nose and got into a chicken shed.
The chickens that were laying eggs were flying around in fright.
——————
When Yu Zhiyan returned home, there was no clean place on her body, not even the outer robe on her body, which was full of.
She was glad that Feng Huang was not at home, otherwise if she saw her so embarrassed, she would even have the mind to jump into the river.
After she finished bathing, she saw Yu'er coming in in a hurry, "The princess and the prince called you over." ”
Yu Zhiyan's heart tightened, "What's the matter?" ”
Yu'er said hatefully, "Maybe that dumb man went to sue you." ”
The roots of her teeth itched when she thought of him leaving him and running away, "Isn't he dumb, how can he sue?" ”
Yu'er put on her outer robe for her, "She can write, Miss Fei is confused." ”
When Yu Zhiyan came to the house of King Nan'an and the princess, the two of them were playing chess, and the two of them were killing.
"Fold cigarettes and say hello to my parents." She leaned over with trepidation.
The prince's chess was falling, and his brows were tightened, "Si Mo's girl confessed to us, saying that you took her to the casino, right?" ”
Yu Zhiyan wringed the handkerchief with his fingers, "I just want to win some money and come back to help the victims. ”
"Reprimand?" King Nan'an suddenly laughed, "Sure enough, it's an interesting child, it seems that Feng Huang has picked up a treasure." ”
The princess also smiled and turned her head, and then asked the girl to hand her the eight hundred taels of silver she had won back, "Take this money back, and in the next few days, you will go outside the city to supervise the soup kitchen, so that those people in Qingzhou will recognize our princess." ”
"By the way, you girl has to teach this king how to listen to dice." King Nan'an is like an old naughty boy, "Simo has made everything you said a god, which really makes this king envious." ”
Yu Zhiyan's face suddenly turned red, "It's all something that can't be put on the table, the prince smiled." ”
King Nan'an said with a smile: "I think this king was also mixed in the casino when he was young, but he lost nine out of ten bets, but I didn't expect you to be a good girl, and you won eight hundred taels in a while." ”
——————
The city gates of Qingzhou were closed for several days, and those who fled began to make a lot of noise, but later Dao also gave up, and only his father set up camp outside the city walls.
Yu Zhiyan had never seen so many homeless people, most of them were young people, staring at the closed city gate with desperate eyes.
The Nan'an Mansion sent a few guards, standing in front of the wooden barrel to scoop porridge for those people, they seemed to be really hungry, poured all their brains into their stomachs, and then begged in a humble voice, "Official, give me another bowl." ”
The guard said in a cold voice, "One bowl per person, hurry up and leave after receiving it." ”
Yu Zhiyan looked at the little porridge left, and his heart was as uncomfortable as a needle prick.
In the distance, a woman stood in the crowd desperately holding her child, because she was too thin to squeeze in.
Yu Zhiyan personally filled a bowl of porridge, passed through countless refugees, and handed the bowl of porridge to the women.
The woman was just about to take it, when the refugees kept running around, shouting, "Hades is here." ”
As soon as Yu Zhiyan raised his head, he saw the handsome flag flying high in the distance, waving the flag, and countless soldiers in silver helmets and iron armor came with the smell of blood.
And on a white horse walking in the front, there sat a person who Yu Zhiyan never imagined.
