Chapter Forty-Seven: She's a Man

Yu Zheyan was brought by Jin'er to a courtyard, only to see that the yard was very strange, and there were countless iron cages hanging on the trees, which were not birds, but creepy snakes.

Jin'er said that she wouldn't go in, Yu Zhiyan sighed and walked straight in.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard a squeaking sound, turned a few green bamboos, and saw where the hated girl was swinging.

She only heard Yu'er's girl talk about this, this Si Mo has a strange temperament, and he never allows others to serve, and no one is allowed to come in his courtyard except for Feng Huang.

It's no wonder that the snakes full of trees, who would dare to come in.

I saw Na Simo standing on the swing, dragging the red silk on both sides with both hands, she swinged very high, and her whole body flew in the air, like a butterfly.

This girl has just an ordinary flying bun on her head, but there are two braids underneath, and the ends of the braids are tightly tied with red ropes. And the strange thing is that there is no jewelry on the body, not even a drop earring.

As if hearing the movement, the movements under Si Mo's feet gradually slowed down, and the swing also slowed down.

I saw that this girl had a ruddy face and was in good spirits, where did she look like she was going to die or live yesterday, but she was afraid that she wanted to find her own bad luck, so she pretended to be sick and took Feng Huang away.

She still looked at Yu Zhiyan with that disgusted look, then dragged the red silk in one hand and pointed to the dark gate with the other.

Her lips moved slightly, obviously in a "rolling" mouth.

Yu Zhiyan didn't believe in rectification, but unexpectedly, this rude girl, she said unhurriedly, "Now I am the princess, although you are the concubine of the prince, you have to give me a greeting." ”

The girl still ignored her, still blocking her swing.

"Now the princess has asked me to manage the account books at home, and I see that everything in the house is recorded, only your yard is not written, I will come to see if you are missing something."

She still ignored Yu Zhiyan.

"I brought you a pen and paper, if you have anything to say, tell me, or you should reflect on what happened yesterday, whether you should make amends for me."

Finally, Na Simo couldn't stand her noise anymore, reached out and tore off a bamboo leaf green snake from the branch, and threw it at Yu Zhiyan.

She thought that Yu Zhiyan would run away screaming in fright, but Yu Zhiyan grabbed the snake's head very quickly, and then the slender snake tail wrapped around her wrist, like a green bracelet.

Although Yu Zhiyan overcame the fear in her heart, she still had a cold war in her heart, she pretended not to care, "I lied to you last night, you still take it seriously, a few snakes are still there, am I really scared?" ”

Si Mo's eyes flashed a trace of confusion, she didn't believe that this woman was pretending to be everything yesterday.

Yu Zhiyan had already guessed her thoughts, and said with a smile: "Isn't that to pretend to be pitiful in front of the world, how can you see it, a little girl." ”

After she finished speaking, she put the snake back on the bamboo leaf, and she didn't look scared at all.

The swing was still swinging in the air, but the girl looked at her with a look full of hatred, the kind that was unforgettable, as if she were his father-killer.

Yu Zhiyan let out a long sigh, she told herself that this was the person Feng Huang liked, and she must treat him well.

"Shall I push you?" Yu Zhiyan didn't wait for him to agree, and reached out to push the red silk.

As soon as she pushed, Si Mo let go of his hand, flew straight out like a bird with broken wings, and then fell on the gravel road.

Si Mo was on the ground with his cheeks, and he didn't move for a long time.

Yu Zhiyan hurriedly walked over and stretched out his hand to turn her over, "Are you okay, I really didn't mean to." Besides, you let go of your hand yourself, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

Seeing that Si Mo's face was pale, she reached out to touch her snort, but there was no breath.

She won't die, this girl who has to use ginseng as a radish every day.

"You wait, I'll go to the doctor." After she finished speaking, she hurriedly ran out of the yard, because she was in too much of a hurry, she tripped over a stone under her feet and fell to the ground hard.

Jin'er, who was guarding the door, saw her running out and shouted in her mouth, "Go and ask for a doctor." ”

And when Yu Zhiyan led the doctor in, he saw that the originally 'dead' person was standing on the roof and nibbling on sour pears.

Yu Zhiyan saw that he had been teased, and he was suddenly a little annoyed and angry.

And the person standing on the glazed tile threw the remaining husks at her.

β€”β€”β€”β€”

The early winter in Qingzhou was very cold, colder than all the winters in her memory, she looked at the pavilions and pavilions of the Nan'an Palace, the spider silk was full of carved beams, she asked Jin'er to go back, and she stayed for half a day.

When the sky was a little drowsy, she slowly walked back.

Who knew that a tall figure blocked her way, and it was still the white shirt that was not stained with dust. Xuanyue, who had just risen on the branches, sprinkled a bright silver ash on him.

She was so distraught that she happened to crash into his arms.

"I haven't seen you back to your room for a long time, so it's here." He seemed a little tired, and his voice was hoarse, "You are wearing such a thin dress, don't freeze." ”

Yu Zhiyan raised his head, put his face on his chest, and only hugged him tightly, "Why didn't you come back last night, do you know that I waited for you all night." ”

Feng Huang chuckled, "It turned out that I was annoyed by this, yesterday the King of Huaiyin rebelled, and the emperor has sent people to suppress it, and countless homeless people came to Qingzhou, and I went to deal with it overnight." ”

"No wonder I always hear that there is some noise in the north, and it is actually a war." Yu Zhiyan came out of his warm embrace, "Presumably, Huaiyin is full of corpses, and I don't know who the emperor sent." ”

Feng Huang stared at her, and forced back the words that almost blurted out. He wanted to tell her that the man was coming, and that man was no longer the pampered young master he had been, but had become a bloodthirsty madman.

"I'm going to Huaiyin tomorrow, and it will take a few days to come back." He was indeed like a husband, explaining his own affairs to his wife, "But you must allocate a few thousand taels of silver from the account office and ask someone to go to the outside of the city to give porridge for relief." ”

Yu Zhiyan's face changed slightly when he heard this, "But the money in our house account is far from enough." ”

Feng Huang's gaze was very gentle, implying doting, "Let's take a look at what else can be sold in our palace, and there must still be some of those golden silk nanmu tables and chairs." ”

She asked with a puzzled face: "I see that there are many antique calligraphy and paintings on the account, rare antiques, and everything is priceless, so why bother to dismantle those things." ”

Feng Huang's face was helpless, "Those calligraphy, paintings and antiques are all torn and played, but you can't take them out and sell them. ”

This is really the emperor's holy place, it seems that he pampers the Nan'an palace in every way, but he never rewards real money.

Yu Zhiyan nodded slowly, but walked side by side with Feng Huang, who knew that as soon as he walked to a rockery, he saw a frog jumping into the grass, and then croaking.

"It's almost winter, why do you still have this thing." Feng Huang's good-looking eyebrows furrowed tightly, "Tomorrow I will ask the guards to catch all these things, Si Mo is most afraid of these, if she is scared, she is afraid that she will get sick again." ”

She stopped and stared at him, "He's not even afraid of snakes, how could he be afraid of such a cute little thing." ”

Yuehua reflected his face as bright as jade, and her figure was reflected in her clear eyes, "People always have something to fear." ”

"I thought that little girl was a monster, and she jumped up on the roof of such a high house."

Feng Huang stared at her for a long time, "You stay away from Si Mo in the future, she is a little prejudiced against you, and her kung fu is high, I am afraid that it will hurt you." ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”

When Yu Zhiyan changed her bedding clothes at night, she found that her leg was bruised, and she was worried about whether Si Mo was dead, and she didn't care about her body at all.

Yu'er was very distressed, and quickly took the ointment to wipe her.

Yu Zhiyan thought of the little girl playing with herself, and became more and more unwilling, thinking that she had always been a demon king in her own family, but she didn't expect to meet someone more powerful than her in Nan'an Wangfu today.

At this time, Jin'er walked in and said with an angry face, "Just now, the little guys were going to take a few catties of angelica, saying that they were going to give that Si Mo medicinal bath, and now everyone in the palace is saving, why is she so extravagant." ”

After hearing this, Yu Zhiyan's face changed, and he put on the clothes he had taken off again, "When the prince comes back in a while, he will say that I have something to discuss with the princess." ”

After she had finished speaking, she hurried out and went straight to the rockery, and she waited for a long time with the moonlight before she caught the frog that was jumping alive.

The Nan'an Mansion was originally desolate, and the corridor behind it did not even have lanterns, unlike when it was in the Chengguo Mansion, where there were small maids, and even mosquitoes could be monitored.

She walked to the courtyard of Na Si Mo, and sure enough, she saw that the little servant in the house was throwing a few buckets of potions at the door, and then ran away in a hurry, as if she was very afraid of these poisonous snakes.

She hid behind the branches, and faintly saw Nasmo come out of the house, and then carried the two barrels of soup into the house.

After waiting for a while, seeing that the house was calm, Yu Zhiyan quietly entered.

She opened the door gently, and then walked over to the faint light from behind the screen. The frog in her hand was still holding its legs, and she was afraid to make a sound, so she had already pinched its mouth fiercely.

However, as soon as she turned the screen, she froze for a moment, her mouth opened, and she couldn't even say half a wordβ€”

"You-"

I saw that the people in the barrel had loosened their hair buns and hung down in the water.

And when her gaze slid down from Si Mo's face to her chest, He Heran found that he was actually a man, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, with a kind of conceit and arrogance, looking directly at him.

"You found out, it looks like you won't survive." Na Si Mo's lips were hooked, and he actually made a man's voice.

No wonder he has been pretending to be dumb, just afraid that his identity will be discovered as soon as he speaks.

Yu Zhiyan was frightened by the young man's expression, and hurriedly took a step back, "If you want to kill me, I am the princess." ”

The boy snorted, then laughed and said, "If I were you, I would have run away at once, and maybe there would be a way to live." ”

After hearing this, Yu Zhiyan raised his feet and ran out without thinking, only to hear the sound of water behind him, and then the sound of the sword coming out of its sheath.

In a panic, she had just run out of the yard when she heard a urging voice from the beam, "It's not as fast as my snake, it's really a waste." ”

This sound made her heart shake and shake.

Then I saw a black shadow jump down from the beam of the house, blocking straight in front of her.

When she stopped, the sword in the young man's hand was already stabbing straight at her. Yu Zhiyan was in a hurry, and threw the frog in his hand out violently.

Na Simo's face suddenly changed, and he flashed to his side. Yu Zhiyan hurriedly squatted, and cut off the jade hairpin on her head, and then a few strands of green silk fell straight to the ground.

If she hadn't flashed fast, I was afraid that her life would have been saved, but I didn't expect this young man to really dare to kill himself, and he was suddenly scared into a cold sweat.

Fortunately, the frog was crawling out of his clothes along his neck, and Si Mo's face became more and more pale, and he hurriedly took off his clothes to take out the disgusting thing.

Seeing this, she hurried past him and ran back, and as she turned the corridor, she saw that the frog had been pierced into the sword in his hand like a sugar gourd, and his suspicious gaze came to her again.

However, she saw Feng Huang walking in front, seemed to hear the sound, and slowly turned her head.

Yu Zhiyan heard the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer behind her, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly shouted, "Shizi, save me, he wants to kill me." ”

However, as soon as she finished shouting, she only felt a cold wind behind her, presumably the sword had already come.

Yu Zhiyan was almost desperate, he didn't expect that he would die at the hands of this madman today. She looked at Feng Huang from afar, perhaps this was the last time she would see him in her life.

Feng Huang's face also changed, and then he suddenly threw something out of his hand, and with a cold wind, flew straight towards Yu Zhiyan.

When he flew closer, he realized that it was an excellent piece of jade. The turquoise jade flew past her ear, and then smashed on the sharp sword, and suddenly the sword was bounced away, and Yu Zhiyan picked up a small life.

She took the opportunity to quickly run to Feng Huang's place and hid behind him at once, and the tears of the rest of her life rolled down after the catastrophe, "The son of the world save me." ”

And Si Mo, who originally rushed over, had a smile on his face, "Brother Feng Huang, as you said, as long as you know my details, anyone will die." ”

"She's my wife." Feng Huang's face was helpless, "She is different from others. ”

"What's different about her? A vain and selfish woman. The sword in his hand pointed in the direction of Yu Zhiyan, "Brother Feng Huang, don't forget, her father is also one of the murderers of my entire clan." ”

Feng Huang's eyes were calm, "She's different from his father, if you hold a sword against her again, I'll be angry." ”

There was a chill in Si Mo's eyes, "Okay." ”

With that, the boy left, leaving behind a back.

After he left, Yu Zhiyan forcibly held back the tears in his eyes, "I thought that the capital likes to break sleeves the most, but I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Prince to do the same, this Si Mo is so beautiful at a young age, and he will definitely be a heavenly man in the next few years." ”

Feng Huang smiled faintly, it was as gentle as water, and his fingertips swept across her cold cheeks, "You misunderstood, how could I have such a dirty relationship with him." Four years ago, Mo Chengxi, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was executed, only his young son escaped, and in order to hide people's eyes, he could only pretend to be my concubine. ”

Yu Zhiyan's cheeks were slightly red, but he was embarrassed, "Then why did he say that my father killed her?" ”

Feng Huang stretched out his hand to tuck her messy hair, "That's because among the people who slandered his father in front of the emperor was your father, Lord Shangshu. ”

Only then did she realize why this Simo hated herself so much, thinking that it was because of her evil father.

"And he escaped from death at the beginning, and his body has been cut a few times, although he was rescued, he fell seriously ill."

Thinking like this, she felt a heat on her body, and it was he who took off his cloak and put it on her, "Let's go, let's go back." ”

Yu Zhiyan nodded and followed him slowly back.

He suddenly thought of something, turned around and said, "When I come back in a few days, your cousin will come over too." ”

She couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, "Isn't he in the capital, why did he come to Qingzhou?" ”

"Maybe you don't know yet, your cousin was sent by the emperor to Huaiyin to practice, and I think the emperor will be entrusted with important tasks in the future."

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Huaiyin Palace, even the wind is mixed with the smell of blood, and there is a group of soldiers holding swords in the courtyard, and there is indeed an iron cage that can accommodate hundreds of people.

Most of those people were clothed people, and even children and women, all of whom were trembling and huddled together, and they didn't even dare to cry.

And in the only seat in the courtyard, there was a man.

The man wore a black helmet and white feathers, wearing a dark robe embroidered with a dragon, and a sword at his waist. The figure is tall and majestic, and the dark cloak is whirring in the wind.

He raised his hand slightly, and everyone in the courtyard was immediately silent.

"It's still the old rule, the last to survive, I'll let you live." It's obviously a nice sound, but it makes people feel creepy.

"That's enough." Someone in the crowd finally stood up, "The emperor asked you to suppress it, but didn't you let you slaughter the people of the whole city, look at the streets outside, the blood is flowing into the sea, aren't you afraid of the emperor's punishment?" ”

The man sitting in the chair looked up at the man who spoke, "Zhuangyuanlang, I killed all the mobs, didn't you see what they did when we attacked the city?" ”

"But these are women and children." After Yun Peichang finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, but he didn't expect that someone would dare to offend this Hades.

"I didn't expect Lord Yun to be quite kind, but why didn't you play me at the beginning." His voice was majestic and deep, piercing people's hearts one by one, "I walked a whole hundred miles step by step, but now that I think about it, I really grit my teeth with hatred." ”

Yun Peichang looked at the bloodthirsty man in front of him, and couldn't believe that he was actually the eldest young master who was so successful in the Qinglou at the beginning, "What do you want?" ”

"Don't worry, I won't kill you, you are the saint's henchman now." He glanced coldly at the guards beside him, "It's better to move a chair for Lord Yun and accompany me to watch the play." ”

Yun Peichang is a scholar, so he naturally doesn't want to watch such a bloody scene, he just wanted to brush his sleeves away, but was dragged back by the guards and pressed on the chair fiercely.

At this time, the guards brought two beauties over, both of whom were women captured in Huaiyin City, and they all knelt beside Gu Jue tremblingly, serving him tea and water.

He casually pulled a beauty into his arms, and then kissed the beauty on the cheek, ignoring the gazes of the people around him, "Let's start." ”

In the sound of gongs and drums, the guards threw dozens of sharp knives into the iron cage, and then those who were huddled together came to pick up the knives on the ground.

Most of the people who grabbed it were strong young men who screamed and stabbed knives at the people around them.

Purgatory is nothing more cruel than that.

Soon the bottom of the cage was covered in blood and stumps, and the people who could barely stand up were covered in blood and scabs.

Yun Peichang couldn't stand such a scene anymore, and suddenly vomited. And Gu Jue drank the wine handed by the beauty, and watched it with relish.

The young men slowly fell, and finally a few women, brutally stabbed to death. However, to everyone's surprise, it was a thin woman with a baby in her arms who stayed at the end.

When the cage opened, she slowly climbed out with the child in her arms, and then trembled and said, "Adults spare us." ”

The baby in her arms was crying almost silently, its mouth wide open.

"I'll only let you live, you choose." Gu Jue said carelessly, and then threw a cup of saber beside them.

When the woman heard this, she jerked her head up, then picked up her saber from the ground and struck it in her heart.

The mother fell, and the infant child crawled on the ground, and then slowly crawled to Gu Jue's feet, grabbing his leather boots embroidered with gold threads and totems.

He grabbed the child, looked at it carefully for a while, and then said in a cold voice, "Lord Yun, do you see that her eyes look like a person?" ”

Yun Peichang vomited to death, and just drank half a glass of water, when he raised his eyes, he saw that the baby's eyes were very similar to Yu Zhiyan's.

"It's a pity that I hate those eyes." He threw the boy to the guards, "Take it and feed it to the dogs." ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”

Yu Zhiyan woke up from her sleep, and she dreamed that Dong Lang was standing in front of him, her eyes were full of evil, and she was terrified to look at.

She sat up, only to realize that her body was as cold as ice, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

The man who slept next to her also woke up, and then took a fire fold to light the candle by the couch, and asked, "But you have a nightmare?" ”

Her eyes suddenly brightened, she frowned and raised her eyes, and her gaze fell straight into those deep eyes, "I dreamed of Donglang, and I will never forget the look he looked at me for the rest of my life." ”

"I'll protect you." He gently wrapped his arms around her shoulders and let her lean against his chest.

The faint smell of books and ink protected her, and through the bedclothes, she could still feel his scorching body temperature.
