Volume 1 The Return of the Old Man Chapter 170 The White Lotus has magnified its moves
"Your Highness, Your Highness, the villain thought he would never see you again, Your Highness." Downstairs there was a terrible cry in the lobby.
Soon after Zhou Wuxian left, Yao Qi and the others returned, bringing back a few half-old tall cars and a man with a haggard and depressed face.
The man had a scruffy beard and a face full of vicissitudes, and as soon as he entered the door, he hugged Xie Mengxia's thighs, and his snot and tears were cried.
Xie Mengxia looked embarrassed and disgusted, originally planning to scold him for being stupid, stupid, and useless, but seeing him howling like this, he could only swallow back the words full of swearing.
Gao Che pulled into the backyard of the inn, and Meng Sui replied in a low voice: "Childe, those places are empty, and these salaries and silver have not yet had time to be shipped out, we caught two guards, transported all the rest back, and brought back the stand-in for His Royal Highness King Han." ”
It was something Han Changdui expected for people to go to the empty building, he never thought that in a short period of time, he would be able to wipe out the Four Holy Sects that had been operating for decades, uproot them, and find out the remaining salaries, get some information about the Four Holy Sects, and find out the clues of the robbery of the salaries, which was already a worthwhile trip.
Since the entrance of the Four Holy Churches in Luntai City has been dormant temporarily, and if he investigates again, he can only find nothing, so there is no need to stay any longer.
He rubbed his eyebrows, cleared his thoughts, and lightly ordered: "Repair for a few days, replenish some grain and grass, let's go back to the fifth beacon to deal with the bones first, and then go to Yumen Pass." ”
Meng Sui hesitated for a moment: "Son, haven't you already recovered some of the lost silver, why don't you go back to Beijing directly to restore your life." ”
Han Changwan pursed his lips and looked coldly: "There are some things that still need to be determined." ”
Meng Sui said: "Childe, what should I do with the few people who were arrested." ”
Han Changdui lowered his eyelids and said lightly: "Shut it up first, and take it with you when you leave." ”
Meng Suijie lowered his head and turned around to deal with it.
After this incident, the Four Holy Sects in Luntai City seemed to have disappeared overnight, or as if they had never appeared, and no trace could be found.
Han Changdui rested for a long time, and when he had lunch, he didn't see Yao Ji go downstairs to eat, sighed, and took the meal upstairs with an ebony tray.
"Why don't you go down and eat?" He put the tray on the dining table, and saw that Yao Qi's face was a little pale, his eye sockets were deep, and he was big and unfocused, and sighed heavily.
Yao Qi covered his mouth and yawned, and said impatiently and perfunctorily: "I'm not hungry." ”
Han Changwan persuaded good-naturedly: "If you are not hungry, you have to eat some, your internal strength consumption is too great, how can you recover by sleeping alone." ”
Yao Qi stiffly hummed, took the mutton soup cake, and ate it sullenly.
The room was very quiet, quiet and embarrassing, making people feel like they were sitting on pins and needles.
Han Changdui coughed lightly and said gently: "The wind and snow in the past few days are too big, and when the wind and snow stop, we will set off." ”
The bamboo chopsticks paused for a moment, and Yao Qi looked out the window expressionlessly, the goose feathers and snow had been falling for a day and a night, and the sky was still gloomy.
She pursed her lips, such a snowy day, not for three or five days, I'm afraid it won't stop.
She didn't say anything, and continued to eat the soup cakes.
Han Changwan was not used to such a silent and blunt Yao Qi, he felt that she should always be fresh and delicate, he rubbed his eyebrows in distress, and continued: "Ah Qi, it's me who is wrong, I shouldn't have brought Qingqian back without telling you." ”
Before the words were finished, with a snap, Yao Ji put down the bamboo chopsticks and wiped his mouth: "After eating, let Lao Gongzi take it down." ”
"There's no hurry." Han Changwan was stunned for a moment, understanding that Yao Qi didn't want to mention this matter anymore, he took out Zhou Wuji's confession from his sleeve and handed it to Yao Qi: "Take a look." ”
Yao Qi looked at it expressionless at first, but looking at it, her face gradually became solemn, and she looked at it word by word, her hands trembled slightly, and her lips sobbed: "What does this mean." ”
Han Changwan held Yao Qi's hand, feeling that the hand was cold and piercing, and he whispered gently: "Don't panic, although the key is the same as your tattoo pattern, it doesn't mean anything, according to Zhou Wuxian said, many people who escaped from Prince Huaizhang's mansion have such marks on their bodies, and later, in order to show their eternal loyalty to Prince Huaizhang, they will also put the same mark on their children and descendants." ”
Yao Qi nodded, if you say so, then this tattoo really can't prove anything.
But Han Changdui himself was very weak-hearted, his words were just made up for An Yaoji's heart, Zhou Wuji's original words were that this kind of mark was the blood mark of Prince Huaizhang, and only Prince Huaizhang's own flesh and blood had it, in order to let the descendants remember this pattern and keep the key.
In addition, only the person who escaped from the orphan who once protected Prince Huaizhang has this mark, and it is precisely because of this that the Four Holy Sects use this pattern as a messenger mark.
He looked at Yao Qi quietly, Prince Huaizhang died eighteen years ago, Yao Qi is eighteen years old this year, everything is possible.
In a flash, he made up his mind that he would never take the initiative to explore this secret, and if he didn't reveal this secret, he would let that mark always be a secret, and let Yao Ji always be an ordinary person.
Yao Qimo held the few pages, and suddenly said eagerly: "Childe, don't you think that these people are too easy to recruit?" ”
Han Changwan smiled gently, this is the feeling of a confidant, he smiled easily and happily: "The infighting of the Four Holy Sects is serious, the Holy Lord wants to get rid of the Young Master, and the Young Lord wants to use my hand to get rid of the control of the Holy Lord, I just plan it, their confessions, naturally there is still credibility, but the important content is half-truths and half-truths, and it needs to be carefully screened." ”
Yao Ji's eyebrows were raised, they were all thousand-year-old foxes, what kind of chatter.
I don't know why, Han Changwan suddenly remembered the scene when he saw Yao Qi for the first time, his confused appearance, his heart suddenly moved, and he slowly leaned over, his voice was low and distant: "Ah Qi, you don't have to worry about the mark on your leg, that place is secret, no one will see it except me." ”
Yao Qi also laughed: "I know, I'm not worried, just if it doesn't exist." ”
Seeing that Yao Qi's state of mind had calmed down, Han Changwei tentatively brought up the old matter: "Ah Qi, I want to take Qingqian back to Chang'an together, what do you think." ”
Yao Qi raised his head, his bright eyes were honest and clear, making it impossible to look directly: "What does Childe want me to think." ”
Han Changwan choked up, frowned slightly, and was full of bitterness, he never knew that Yao Qi would be so stubborn, this matter could not be passed.
Yao Qi chuckled lightly and suddenly asked, "If I say that I don't want to see her in Chang'an City, what will Gongzi do?" ”
Han Changdu's face was embarrassed and he was silent for a long time.
Yao Qi smiled self-deprecatingly, she knew that she was not that important at all.
There are some things that cannot be tempted, and only oneself is the one who is tempted.
She stood up suddenly, opened the door and said, "Childe, please go to bed, my subordinates are going to rest." ”
Han Changwan walked back to the room with a wry smile and saw that Qingqian was folding her clothes, and the light of the sky penetrated through the pale white window paper and fell on her face, which was so soft and gentle, with a faint warmth.
He walked over briskly, and sat down on the bed with the fatigue of a busy day and a night.
Qingqian hurriedly got up and smiled gently: "Childe is back, the maid goes to prepare the bath soup for the son, the son has a good rest, don't go downstairs to use it in the evening, the maid will serve it." ”
Han Changwan held down Qing Qian's hand and asked gently: "Qing Qian, my business in Luntai City is finished, we will leave for Chang'an in a few days, I want to ask, if you don't want to go back with me, I can give you a sum of money to make your life worry-free." ”
Qing Qian panicked all of a sudden, the clothes in her hand fell to the ground with a click, she knelt down, and tears fell to the ground drop by drop: "Childe, yes, don't you want a servant?" ”
Han Changdui hurriedly helped Qing Qian up, and said lightly: "How come, it's just that I want to ask you what you mean." ”
Qingqian lowered his head, was silent, and suddenly kowtowed: "The maid doesn't want any title, as long as she can serve the son, she will be satisfied, but, but if so, Miss Ah Qi doesn't want to see the maid." Her voice paused slightly, and she sobbed: "The servant is willing to lose her hair as a nun and pray for the blessing of the son." ”
Han Changdui was stunned for a moment, looking at the shallow and gentle appearance like water, and sighed with emotion.
He couldn't help but reach out and touch his shallow face: "How can I be willing to let you go to the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha to live your life." ”
Qingqian lowered his head slightly, his eyes drooped, his head rested on Han Changdu's hand, and his breath was filled with a faint fragrance like orchid, which made people want to indulge in it unconsciously.
The snow was still falling from the sky, the streets were sparsely populated, and it was getting dark, and the rooms without lights were dim with the light of the snow reflected on the window paper.
Yao held her breath in the afternoon, she didn't eat much, she touched her gurgling belly, and decided to go downstairs to find something to eat.
As soon as she walked to the door of Han Changdu's room, she heard a low rustling sound from inside, which made people blush and heartbeat, and it was extremely charming.
She paused, her heart flustered, and her body shook uncontrollably.
In her previous life, she watched a lot of movies and TV series, and this kind of plot clip was indispensable, and she could even name a few paragraphs describing classic and beautiful.
The sound made her heart ache, the facts she heard from her shallow mouth were one thing, and the facts she saw with her own eyes were another.
She is not a person with emotional cleanliness, it is not that she can't tolerate the other party's past affairs, what she can't accept is that this ancient three wives and four concubines, the other party stepped on N boats, like a cucumber with long legs, arranged among many women.
She covered her ears and forced herself not to listen, as if she were the one who had done something unseemly, and ran downstairs in a state of confusion.
