At dusk, the sky darkened. After a while, the wind blew and it began to rain. Seeing that the rain is quite lingering, it stands to reason that it will not stop for a while.

However, what people didn't expect was that as soon as it got dark, the rain stopped, and the wind blew more and more fiercely, sweeping the streets and alleys into a mess.

It was under this hunting wind that Xie Yan raised his feet and stepped onto a flat boat.

The owner of this flat boat, pinching a sweat towel to test the wind, obviously did not understand how he could meet such a madman on this big night.

There was still a hint of kindness on his pleated face. But he looked down at the gold leaf in his hand, and was ruthless, and politely handed over the wine jar at his feet.

"Guest...... Is that enough? ”

When Xie Yan heard this, he glanced back, only faintly "um", his body was short, and he sat down and didn't speak.

If it weren't for the fact that this man was well-dressed and generous, it was really hard not to wonder if he was sick in the brain.

"That'...... That ......"

The boatman set the jar on the boat, and he hesitated to speak, but his eyes looked at the bulging thing he was wrapped in his cloak and wrapped in his arms.

Xie Yan frowned, his eyes became cold, "Don't leave yet!" ”

The boatman's face was scornful, and then he withdrew his gaze and stopped exploring.

At night, there is a biting chill on the lakeside. It was quiet all around, and the lights of Wanjia were far away, as if he was separated from another world.

Xie Yan sat quietly for a while, and finally lifted his cloak and placed the bulging ball in his arms at his feet...... But it's a pot of poppies that have long since withered.

*

Halfway through, most people are asleep. Shanyin Xie Mansion is brightly lit.

As soon as Xie Er stopped, he was shouted.

Since she learned that Wang Guobao had returned to Jiankang to find her, she couldn't help but ask her personal maid to investigate. Obviously, she didn't care anymore, but after learning about his fate, she tossed and turned a little.

finally fell asleep, but was woken up by the maidservant.

"Girl, Childe got drunk and accidentally fell into the lake......"

Xie Er was agitated and sat up suddenly.

Originally......

Xie Yan was stimulated by the news that Tianjin and Liu Yu were married today. He chartered a boat on the shore of Fengming Lake to drink alone, although the owner of the boat was a little greedy for money, but he was not a great traitor.

Seeing that Xie Yan was dressed luxuriously, but he was drunk and dreaming of death, he kept an extra eye.

When Xie Yan fell into the lake after drinking, he was uneasy and just turned back, and rescued the person in time. Fortunately, Xie Yan's belongings made the owner of the ship recognize his identity, and then he sent the person back.

When Xie Er got up, the doctor had already invited him into the house, and she was relieved to learn that he had just choked on some water and was fine.

Tell the maidservant: "Take some of the reward and give it to the owner of the ship, so that you can send the man out." “

"Whoa."

Xie Yan woke up the next day, only to know how big an oolong he had been, and he held his forehead and closed his eyes with the concern on Xie Er's face.

"Miaomiao, I'm fine."

They are really brothers and sisters, and their love is really harmful.

Xie Er obviously didn't believe it, and wanted to ask carefully, but saw the maidservant hurriedly walk in, "General, Vice General Cheng asks to see you." ”

Xie Yan was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at Xie Er, "Why don't you go down first?" ”

Cheng Feng is Xie Yan's lieutenant general and is very respected. During the time Xie Yan went to Shouyang, he was always taking care of Shanyin's military affairs. Xie Er knew about this person, and when he found Xie Fu, most of them had important matters to discuss, so he stood up obediently.

The two met unexpectedly in the hospital.

Xie Er stood in place and bent down. Cheng Feng saw the plain-clothed woman walking out of the house from a long distance, knowing that she was Xie Yan's sister-in-law, and nodded at her very congratulatorily, paused for a moment, and quickly crossed over.

"Let's go." Xie Erdao.

The maidservant who was following her couldn't help but quietly turn around and glance at Cheng Feng's tall back, her face flushed slightly.

Seeing that Xie Er was about to step out of the courtyard, he hurriedly followed.

In the room, Cheng Feng looked Xie Yan up and down, and seeing that his face was still good, he couldn't help but say more, "If the general wants to drink, why don't you call his subordinates?" If you have any mistakes......"

Xie Yan looked strange, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Okay, why did you come to me?"

Cheng Feng thought about it, and his expression was solemn, "My subordinates received the news that Sima Daozi had quietly left Jiankang, and I am afraid that he is almost in Shanyin." ”

Xie Yan didn't care and said: "This Shanyin is his territory, and since Jiankang's affairs have been done, if he doesn't come back, staying in Jiankang will only be criticized." ”

After speaking, I don't know what I remembered, and my face changed.

Cheng Feng was listening to his instructions, and was shocked when he saw this, "General, is there something right?" ”

"Not really."

It wasn't that there was anything wrong, but Xie Yan suddenly remembered that Tianjin was still in the Lang Evil King's Mansion. Although he didn't understand when she had a friendship with Sima Yuanxian, he could make Sima Yuanxian willing to cover it up for her, but ...... The Lang Evil King's Mansion is a place of trouble after all.

I'm afraid that the shrewdness of Sima Daozi will soon be noticed.

His eyes couldn't help narrowing, "You just said when Sima Daozi would be able to return to Shanyin?" ”

"I'm afraid I'll be able to go back to the city tonight."

Xie Yan stood up abruptly.

"General?"

Xie Yan: "You go and prepare...... Prepare a private place where people can live, preferably larger. After all, there are quite a few people around her now.

Cheng Feng didn't quite understand what he meant, and asked hesitantly: "Does the general mean to prepare a mansion?" I don't know who it is for? ”

Xie Yan pursed his lips and did not answer.

Cheng Feng hurriedly said: "The house is easy to find, but if it is purchased in the name of the general, no matter how secretive it is, I am afraid that there will be rumors of leakage." ”

Indeed, this is Sima Daozi's lair after all, and his slightest movement will attract eyes and ears. Presumably, this is also the reason why Tianjin risked his life and hid in the Lang Evil King's Mansion.

The most dangerous places are often the safest places.

But this time is not that time, Sima Daozi has just suffered a big loss in the hands of Wang Gong, and now he is a frightened bird. The old department of the poppy beauty followed closely around Tianjin, and hiding in the Lang Evil King's Mansion must also have a plan, if Sima Daozi found out that his son was being used, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"That's it, you don't have to look for a house." Xie Yan's voice was deep, and his eyebrows were furrowed, "You go down first, let me think about it again." ”

Although Cheng Feng couldn't understand why he went back on his word, he also knew that it was not good to go too far, so he had to retreat as he said.

Soon after he left, Xie Yan changed into clean clothes and went out. He had to see Tianjin again before Sima Daozi returned to Shanyin, and he couldn't watch her put her in danger no matter what.
