On the tenth day of the eighth month, the imperial capital in the early morning drifted with a heavy fog that is common in this season. Before it was dawn, Bai Yiyan and Bai Qingyun had already gotten up and set off for the Shen Mansion with the things they had packed. They also planned to send Divine Doctor Jiang and Jiang Yutang to the ferry, from where Jiang Yutang would once again take a boat to the south to buy medicinal herbs. And this time, they also have one more task to prepare for Bai Yiyan's southward journey.

Bai Yiyan didn't have a lot of things to bring, she only packed the important ones in a baggage, and only the bow that Dingyuan Hou gave her was held in her hand. In the early morning, there was silence on the streets of the imperial capital, Bai Qingyun led the horse, looking at the beloved girl on the horseback, and felt a little stunned. In a few days, he was going to send her away, although he knew that this was only a short separation, but he was still reluctant. He looked at the thick foggy streets, where there was no one in the empty streets. He suddenly rolled over and got on the horse and hugged Bai Yiyan in his arms.

"Ahri~" His chin rubbed against the back of Bai Yiyan's neck, causing Bai Yiyan to tremble.

"Ahri~" He called out again, Bai Yiyan felt that his bones were about to be crispy, and the whole person had a sense of intoxication in the clouds, which was very similar to such weather. Her right hand holding the reins was wrapped in Brother Qingyun's big hand, and her person was also trapped in his arms. She was afraid that this appearance would be seen by passers-by, and wanted to sit up straight, but she coveted the warm chest behind her. She scolded her for not being able to do anything, and leaned back again.

"Brother Qingyun, I'm here." Bai Yiyan's current voice was soft and glutinous, with a hint of unique delicacy, which made Bai Qingyun unable to let go of his hand.

Bai Qingyun whispered in her ear: "I really don't want you to go to the south first." Even though I know we won't be separated for too long, I just can't bear it. ”

Bai Yiyan was also reluctant, but there was no way to do it. She could only comfort Brother Qingyun ruthlessly: "When we arrange our whereabouts, we will have a long time together in the future." Even if you get tired of me, I will appear in front of your eyes every day. ”

Bai Qingyun also knew that it was the best choice to send Bai Yiyan to the south for the time being, and they would be together in the future, but he just couldn't control his feelings.

He spoke again: "I understand, but I still feel a little uncomfortable. Otherwise, let's send Doctor Jiang and go to Yanbo Pavilion to sit down. ”

Bai Yiyan remembered that when Brother Qingyun was in Yonghua City in the past, if he was in a bad mood, he also liked to go to Yanbo Pavilion. Brother Qingyun always said that when he looked at Yongjiang South from the Yanbo Pavilion, and listened to the rolling water, he felt that life was no big deal. If she can make Brother Qingyun happier, she is naturally willing to accompany him to go where he wants to go.

Like a kitten, Bai Yiyan lazily shrunk in Bai Qingyun's arms, and said gently, "Okay." Listen to Brother Qingyun. ”

No matter how long the road is, there is an end, not to mention that the path to the Shen Mansion is not too far away. Even if the two of them let the horse go slowly, it took a stick of incense to arrive. The two had to reluctantly get off the horse, but fortunately, no one saw them along the way, and the two enjoyed a rare time alone.

By the time they entered the Mucang Hutong, Jiang Yutang's father and son had already packed up. Shen Rongzhi was going to see them off, but when he heard that Bai Qingyun and Bai Yiyan would accompany them to the ferry, and then go to Yanbo Pavilion, he was happy to go back and make up for sleep, and directly entrusted Jiang Yutang's father and son to Bai Qingyun and the others. Wu Wei and Qiu Shaoze are also people with eyes, so they said goodbye to Jiang Yutang's father and son here, and didn't go to the ferry to see them off.

After sending Jiang Yutang and his son on the boat, Bai Qingyun and Bai Yiyan went to Yanbo Pavilion. Yanbo Pavilion is on a low hill not too far south of the ferry, and when you reach the pavilion through the woods, you can see the magnificent Yongjiang River. Even if it is foggy today and you can't see the river, it is comforting to listen to the sound of the river.

At this time, Yuwen Mochi, who was dressed in battle armor, had already led a large number of Praetorian Guards to surround the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. He looked at the few big characters of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion in the mist, and sneered contemptuously, from now on, there will never be any Dingyuan Marquis Mansion again, and this will become his first stepping stone to the throne.

He went to knock on the door himself, and the little man who opened the door saw the heavily armed Praetorian Guards sitting on the ground in fright. Yuwen Mochi waved his hand and rushed in directly with the Praetorian Guards. He stood in the corridor of the front yard and shouted: "The emperor has an order that the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion harbors the remnants of the Qianguo, and the crime is unforgivable, immediately arrest the Dingyuan Marquis Bai Mingxi and the whole family, and be sure to find out the traitors Bai Qingyun and Bai Yiyan of the Qianguo." If there are those who resist, cut them immediately! ”

When the people in the mansion got the news, they quickly became confused, and the cries and weepings of servants and maidservants echoed in the mansion of Nuoda. When the Marquis of Dingyuan heard the movement, he quickly arrived in the front hall, Yuwen Mochi was waiting for him in the hall to throw himself into the net, and directly ordered someone to push the Marquis of Dingyuan to the ground and tie him up. When had Bai Mingxi been treated like this, he tried to struggle to stand up, and asked Yuwen Mochi angrily: "What is King Xiling doing?!" This is the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, how can you be allowed to be wild here! ”

Yuwen Mochi scolded with a straight face: "The criminal minister Bai Mingxi, you dare to harbor the remnants of the Qianguo for many years and let him lead the troops in the northwest, what is your intention?!" Father ordered me to arrest you today and wait for the sinners to be brought to justice, and you should honestly tie up your hands and arrest them! ”

As soon as Bai Mingxi heard it, he knew that the East Window incident had happened. But he couldn't figure out how this secret, which had been well preserved, could be known to Emperor Xuan. But he didn't have time to think about these or Dingyuan Houfu now, his heart was all about the safety of Bai Qingyun and Bai Yiyan, and he knew that if the two of them were caught by Yuwen Mochi, they would definitely die.

And Biluan and Bi Kite in Wanqing Courtyard also heard the news. Although they didn't go to Mucang Hutong and Yongjiang Ferry with Bai Yiyan today, they also knew her itinerary. The two of them heard that Emperor Wei already knew the identities of her and Bai Qingyun, and they were in a hurry to arrest the two.

The two estimated that Bai Yiyan might have sent Jiang Yutang's father and son out of the imperial capital and returned to the Shen Mansion at this time. The two of them relied on their strong martial arts, and planned to escape from the house while the chaos was in chaos, and hurried to report to Bai Yiyan. They decided to split up, with Bi Luan, who had better martial arts, going to Mucang Hutong, while Bi Kite was responsible for checking on the ferry to ensure that Bai Yiyan and Bai Qingyun would be notified and let them flee quickly.

Biluan Bi Kite took advantage of the chaos to the back door with her sword, and found that there were already a large number of Praetorian Guard soldiers guarding it. The two had no choice but to go around and find a side wall that no one was paying attention to, and climb out. Bi Luan went out first and quickly disappeared into the fog.

And when the blue kite turned out, it was discovered by a patrolling Praetorian guard, who shouted and beckoned to the other sergeants, and at the same time slashed at it with a sword like a blue kite. Bi Kite was in a hurry, but he was entangled by this soldier, so he could only turn around and fight him. Fortunately, that soldier was not Bi Kite's opponent, and was quickly stabbed to death by Bi Kite. But at this time, more soldiers rushed here, and Bi Kite didn't have time to think about it, turned around and ran, and disappeared into the fog.

At this time, Yuwen Mochi, who was in the main hall, heard that Bai Qingyun and Bai Yiyan had not been seen in the whole mansion, so he was anxious, angry, and irritable. If you can't catch these two people who should be caught the most, how can he explain to his father! He ordered someone to sneak up the two little servants guarding the door, and with his sword, he directly split one of them in half. Another little guy saw his companion die tragically in front of him, and he was so frightened that he urinated directly on his body, knelt on the ground and begged Yuwen Mochi for mercy again and again.

Yuwen Mochi asked with a hideous face: "Say!" Where did Bai Qingyun and Bai Yiyan go?! ”

The little guy guarding the door trembled with snot and tears: "The prince spares his life!" The prince spares his life! The villain is just a gatekeeper and doesn't know anything. Before dawn this morning, the second young master and the third girl went out. The villains really don't know where they've gone. Ask the prince to be merciful and spare the villain's life! ”

Yuwen Mochi smiled abruptly and pointed to the corpse of another little guy who had just been split in half: "Do you have anything else to say?" If not, you'll end up like him! ”

The little guy thought hard and quickly said, "Please don't kill me." I remembered that when the third girl was about to leave the house, her maidservant Biluan ran over and gave her a cloak, and said that the ferry was windy, so that the three girls should not stand for a long time and be careful of getting cold. It sounds like the three girls are going to send someone. ”

Yuwen Mochi knew the whereabouts of Bai Yiyan and the others, and no longer listened to his nonsense, and stabbed the gatekeeper to death with a sword. At this time, the commander of the Praetorian Guard hurriedly ran over to report to Yuwen Mochi, just now there was a woman who knew martial arts who escaped from the side wall, and she should be a maid from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and it was estimated that she was ventilating and reporting the news. But because the fog was too high, they couldn't catch up with her.

Yuwen Mochi already knew the whereabouts of Bai Yiyan and the others, and he didn't care about the disappeared maid. Directly took half of the people and horses, and immediately set off from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to the Yongjiang River to arrest Bai Yiyan and the others.
