Volume 2 Leaves go with autumn and don't know the cold Chapter 3 The night is Chang'an
As soon as these words came out, the temperature of the already cold Ning Guohou Mansion dropped a few points again.
Ye Chengtai and his wife looked at Xu Han's faces again, and a heavy look of horror suddenly appeared on their brows.
"Madame is a side branch of the Muwang Mansion, and she is still the aunt of the Muwang family who doesn't know life and death, although Zhu Xian only wiped out the Muwang clan back then, but for the suppression of the side family over the years, Hou Ye has a deep understanding, Zhu Xian is a person, Hou Ye should know better than me. Xu Han said eloquently, with a calm demeanor.
But Ye Chengtai and the woman in the house were more and more ugly.
Ning Guohou's wife, that is, Ye Hongjian's mother, is called Mu Yinyin, is a side of the Mu family, Zhu Xian suppressed the Mu Wangfu was extremely ruthless, but after all, the Mu family has a big business, and the side or Ning Guohou almost all over Chang'an City, and even several princes have close contacts with the Mu Wangfu back then.
Zhu Xian naturally had scruples, so he only killed the Mu family himself, and the rest of the people were not investigated, but they have also tried their best to suppress them over the years.
The Marquis of Ning Guo is a marquis, and he can get into such a sloppy situation, which has nothing to do with it.
"Linglong Pavilion has been at odds with the imperial court recently, and he almost tore his face, Hou Ye thinks that with Zhu Xian's thoughts, he will really let Hou Ye and Linglong Pavilion have a solid relationship? Or rather, Hou Ye is to protect himself again, in Zhu Xian's heart, the entire Ningguo Hou Mansion has already been labeled as Tiance Mansion and Mu Family because of the relationship between his wife, Hou Ye has been in Chang'an City for so long, this kind of reason will not be thought through, right?"
Xu Han said this, the smile on his face was even worse, but the gaze that looked at Ye Chengtai and Mu Yinyin was a little colder.
Ye Chengtai and Mu Yinyin glanced at each other at that time, and they both saw a look of horror in each other's eyes.
They are not stupid, they were just overwhelmed by joy because their daughter soared into the sky, and after all, many years have passed since the matter of the Muwang Mansion, and they have not thought about it at all, but after listening to what Xu Han said at this moment, they suddenly thought about it thoroughly.
"So what? Changye Si is not trustworthy, is Tiance Mansion trustworthy?" But after all, Ye Chengtai has been up and down for many years, and it is impossible to believe him simply because of Xu Han's few words.
"Tiance Mansion?" Xu Han shook his head. "Master Hou seems to have misunderstood something, I can't represent Tiance Mansion, I only represent Xu Han. ”
"Is there any difference?" Ye Chengtai frowned, he didn't like such a mouthful of words.
"Is there a difference, I said that Hou Ye naturally didn't believe it, but Hou Ye only needs to know that Miss wants to go to Linglong Pavilion, and I have to go, and without Miss, I can't go to Linglong Pavilion. Therefore, Master Hou can fully trust me, and this is enough. Xu Han met Ye Chengtai's gaze at that time, his expression was firm, and the light in his eyes was clear, which shocked Ye Chengtai's heart, and he couldn't give birth to half a doubt at that moment.
There was another long silence.
Ye Chengtai looked at Xu Han with a calm face for a long time, and finally sighed.
"I understand, Childe step down, I'll ask someone to arrange a place for Childe to live. After that, he waved his hand, and there were attendants outside the hall, leading Xu Han to retreat under Ye Chengtai's orders.
"Then I'll wait for the news of the Hou Ye. Xu Han didn't press too hard, after all, it was about Ye Chengtai's daughter, and it was natural for the other party to hesitate. Therefore he bowed his hand at that time, and left the chamber under the lead of the attendant.
When Xu Han left, only Ye Chengtai and Mu Yinyin were left in the main hall.
"Husband..."Mu Yinyin stepped forward at that time, and called out with some concern.
"Over the years, I've dragged you down with the red note... Now that Zhu Xian..."She said with guilt, for the catastrophe of the Mu family, Mu Yinyin's heart could not be completely relieved, but she was a woman, without half an inch of cultivation, and she was powerless to change anything, but it affected her husband's family, and even her own daughter was dragged down because of this. But Ye Chengtai has not been half dissatisfied with her over the years, but has loved her, which makes Mu Yinyin's heart even more guilty.
When Ye Chengtai heard this, he came back to his senses.
He turned his head and saw that his wife was full of depression and anxiety at the moment, and he felt a pain in his heart, and hurriedly hugged her into his arms.
"Madame, don't think too much, you and I are husband and wife, sharing weal and woe. Moreover, the shepherd king was full of loyalty, and he died unjustly. Although I am weak and can't face the saint's direct advice, I won't go along with that Zhu Xian..."Speaking of this, Ye Chengtai paused, his gaze wandered for a while, and finally turned into a decisive color.
"Since he Zhuxian still doesn't let us go, then I, Ye Chengtai, simply fight for this life, and I also want to keep Mrs. and Hongzhi safe!"
As he spoke, his resolute voice resounded back and forth in the room.
......
The night in Chang'an City is no different from that in Youzhou.
On the contrary, it was the fragrant pillow of the Hou Mansion that made Xu Han, who was used to sleeping in the open air, a little uncomfortable, and he didn't feel sleepy after tossing and turning in bed for a while.
"Meow!" The black cat sleeping next to him was awakened by Xu Han's action, it let out a dissatisfied call, and then squatted up lazily, raised its eyes and glanced at Xu Han, the big amber eyes were full of doubts, as if it was really questioning Xu Han.
If such a humanized expression is seen by outsiders, it must be secretly surprised, but Xu Han has already adapted to this.
Half a year after rushing to Dayuan Mountain with the current of the sea, plus nine months of learning art with his master, he and the black cat can almost be said to be dependent on each other, and there is no gap between them.
Xu Han smiled apologetically at that time, then stretched out his hand and touched the black cat's head, and said softly: "You go to sleep first, I want to go out for a walk." ”
Saying that, Xu Han stood up from the bed, then sorted out his thoughts, and was about to go out.
"Meow!" Who knew that the black cat let out a light call again, and before Xu Han could understand what it meant, his body turned into an afterimage and landed on Xu Han's shoulder.
Xu Han was stunned.
Then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Okay, let's go together. ”
Xu Han and Ye Chengtai got along unhappily, only he and Ye Chengtai knew that others saw it, and thought that Xu Han was a distinguished guest, naturally no one in the house dared to stop him, and Xu Han went out of the hospital very smoothly.
The time has come.
In other towns, it would have been the dead of night.
But Chang'an City is still bustling.
The liquor shops on both sides of the street were full of guests, and some of the drunken people were still shouting these things.
Or bitter, or boasting.
There are all kinds of things in the world, and that's probably the case.
Xu Han walked silently, his eyes swept over the faces of those drinkers.
The master also liked to drink, but he was not as drunk as the current of the sea, and he had to drink a small pot almost every night for nine months of studying art with him.
In his words, it is - drunk and floating, slightly drunk and cold.
No matter what, whether it is the current of the sea, or the master of Tiance Mansion, for Xu Han, they are the kind of people he can't see through.
They all seemed to be chasing something, and they all seemed to be worrying about something.
But they never said, and Xu Han never asked.
Just half a month ago, the master left a letter, telling Xu Han to take it to this Chang'an City to find the Marquis of Naning, and then disappeared alone.
Where the master went and what to do, Xu Han didn't know.
But he was very uneasy.
Because the expression on the master's face when he left was exactly the same as the moment when the sea current climbed the Dayuan Mountain.
But in the end, he still came to Chang'an with the letter.
Although his arm had already been connected, it was the arm of a certain ancient demon clan sage whose name Xu Han couldn't name, how could it be so easy to control?
He also needs to go to Linglong Pavilion to find some unique medicinal materials on the Hanging River Peak and refine them in order to alleviate the harm caused to him by the majestic demonic power in this arm, but this matter is not convenient to do as a master, according to the previous plan, Xu Han needs to find a way to go to Linglong Pavilion by himself. Now, because the Master suddenly had something urgent, he advanced the plan some time.
"Run, you'll try another one for me?"
Just as Xu Han was thinking about this, a burst of shouting and scolding suddenly sounded in front of him.
Pulling Xu Han back from his thoughts, he looked up, but saw that not far ahead, several strong men dressed as attendants were scolding loudly around a middle-aged man with a disheveled head.
"Uncle, next time, next time I will definitely bring the wine money, you can spare the little one!" The middle-aged man was full of wine, listening to what he said, he thought that he should be surrounded by these restaurant boys because he didn't give wine money.
Xu Han shook his head, he had seen a lot of such people, almost every wine shop had to have some people gagging, he went around to the side, ready to avoid this "fight".
"Next time, is your grandfather's drunken red mansion a place where you can repay your debts?" the strong man at the head scolded angrily, his attitude was extremely arrogant, he looked left and right, and said with a fierce expression: "Call me!"
As soon as these words fell, the group of small men surrounded them, and without any scruples, they punched and kicked the middle-aged man.
The next sound was naturally the scream of the middle-aged man killing a pig.
Xu Han, who had already walked a few feet away, didn't care, he was a little hungry after walking for a long time, and wanted to find a clean restaurant to eat something.
Only then did he take a step, but behind him, he suddenly stretched out a pair of hands and hugged his feet.
"I still want to run, if I don't beat you to death today, I won't open this drunken red mansion!" The strong man's angry scolding came immediately, and several little guys surrounded him again.
Only then did Xu Han see that the hands were shocked that the drunk man who had been beaten before didn't know how to escape from the encirclement of several people, and ran behind Xu Han, who was desperately hugging Xu Han's thighs at the moment, obviously being scared.
"Uncle save me. The middle-aged man looked at the approaching little guys, his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly asked Xu Han for help.
Xu Han frowned, he didn't get involved in such idle things. He moved his feet, trying to shake off the drunk, but the drunk obviously understood that if he fell into the hands of those little guys again, even if he didn't die, he would have to take off half of his skin, so he naturally didn't want to, so he used all his strength and hugged Xu Han to death.
At this time, those little guys had already rushed to the front, and Xu Han's eyes showed a hint of coldness, and he had to use some strength.
The drunk man seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly at that time, a carp stood up, pointed at Xu Han and said.
"Brother, brother, I've finally waited for you, na, these are the people who helped my brother take care of them!"
