Han Changwei was stunned by this question, and in an instant, he understood what Zhang Youli meant by asking this, this was to give him what he wanted, he looked at Yao Qi in astonishment.

Someone blatantly bribed the people of the Internal Security Division in front of him, should he take it down?

Yao Qi bent his apricot eyes, and looked at Zhang Youli with a kind and gentle gaze, revealing a relieved smile that his little cub suddenly came out.

In fact, Zhang Youli has always been very promising, diligent and studious, and not afraid of hardship, but his life is not good, and he has not been able to follow a good master.

Han Changwan suddenly felt that Yao Qi's smiling eyes hurt, and his expression was so solemn that he didn't even bother to say anything to Zhang Youli, and turned his head to order the rest of the things.

Zhang Youli was taken aback by Han Changdu's cold expression, followed behind Yao Ji step by step, and asked in a low voice: "Yao joins the army, I, I didn't say the wrong thing, why did the envoy suddenly get angry?" ”

"He loves corpses." Yao Qi walked a few steps outside, looking at the white sky in the distance, and suddenly opened his mouth, although his face was calm, but the words he said were terrifying.

Zhang Youli was frightened, and his face turned pale: "What, the envoy wants my life!" ”

Yao Qi turned his head, looked at the innocent and innocent Zhang Youli with a foolish gaze, was speechless for a long time, slapped him on the shoulder twice, and slapped him short, only to sigh regretfully.

Zhang Youli was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he leaned against the wall, a little unable to stand.

Han Changwei led the horse, walked past Yao Qi and Zhang Youli, and glanced at Zhang Youli more and more unkindly.

Zhang Youli wailed in his heart.

It's over, the envoy really wants his life.

Is it too late for him to run?

Leng Linjiang also walked out, seeing that Zhang Youli's face was not much stronger than that of a dead man, he was obviously frightened, knowing that this poor child was teased by Yao Qi again, so he walked to her side, shook his head and sighed: "People and children are timid, you take it easy, don't scare at three ends in three days, let's just scare every three or five times." ”

"......" Yao Qi raised his eyebrows, and was about to say something, but Han Changwan stopped at the mouth of the alley in the narrow alley, and called Yao Qi in an unkind tone.

"Not leaving?!" Han Changdui's voice was cold, without any ups and downs, but it pierced the night like a sharp blade, and anyone could tell that he was not in a good mood.

This voice was cold, and even Leng Linjiang, who had always had a strong heart and the thickest skin, shuddered, and frowned slightly: "Ah Qi, why are you messing with him again?" ”

Yao Qi let out a "hitch" and glanced at Leng Linjiang: "I dare to provoke him?" Lord Shaoyin, do you have any misunderstanding about the bear-hearted leopard gall? ”

"......" snorted coldly.

In the thin night, Han Changdu's already dark figure became more and more gloomy, and just by looking at it from a distance, he felt that the blood all over his body was about to be frozen.

Yao Ji shrunk his neck, silently begged for more blessings in his heart, and hurriedly chased the humanoid ice cube into the narrow alley.

The two walls were mottled and cramped, and the faintly whitish sky was dark and low-pressure shrouded in the narrow narrow alley, and the dark shadows splashed on the walls, like ink clouds before the rainstorm.

Yao Ji couldn't help but be a little more cautious, peeking at Han Changdui from time to time, and saw that he was always indifferent, and there was no sign of imminent anger, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he has a strange temper, fortunately he is not moody.

Han Changdui noticed Yao Qi's gaze, and laughed secretly in his heart, but his face did not show anything, and said lightly: "Gu Chen is awake." ”

"Lao Gu is awake!" Yao Qi was pleasantly surprised, and Fang Cai's cautious appearance suddenly disappeared: "Great, I can finally know what happened in Qingyun Village at that time." ”

Since returning to Beijing from Qingyun Village, Gu Chen, who had been unconscious, also moved into the Han Mansion to recuperate, and Han Zengshou, the medical commander of the Imperial Medical Department, also went to see it, and the water-like medicinal materials were also boiled and fed, but he just didn't show the slightest sign of waking up.

If it weren't for Han Zengshou's diagnosis of the pulse and his conclusion that Gu Chen was too injured to fall unconscious, Yao Qi would have really thought that he was deliberately lazy, so he lay still.

Hearing the news that Gu Chen had woken up this time, Yao Qi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and there was a more sincere smile on his face: "Thank you so much for your lordship for treating Lao Gu with medicinal materials, otherwise he would have woken up so easily." ”

Han Changdu's heart froze, and he was choked with bitterness by the affectionate "Old Gu", turned his head away, and said an ominous "um".

After working for most of the night, after returning to the Han Mansion, Yao Ji dipped his pillow on it, and when he woke up after sleeping, the sky was already bright, the birds and birds fell on the edge of the window, and the small figures of the jumps were outlined on the thick paper, and the high and low chirps were non-stop.

The people got up early, knowing that the people in the guest room had not yet gotten up, and their movements were very light when they cleaned the yard.

Yao Qi lifted the curtain and looked outside, and the dirty clothes on the hanger were gone.

The rustling sound of lifting the curtain was not loud, and it was not easy to notice in the rustling sound through the window.

Just as Yao Qi was thinking about what clothes he could wear, there was a soft "squeak", and the door was half opened.

Liu led a maid in, and saw Yao Qi poking her head out of the tent at a glance, she hurriedly took the copper plate held by the maidservant, and said respectfully: "Miss Ah Qi woke up, the clothes that the girl changed at night, the maid ordered someone to take them to wash, this is a new dress made in the house, the girl tries to fit it or not." ”

Yao Qi looked at the neatly folded skirt shirt in Liu's hand, the material looked like ordinary linen, but the workmanship was extremely fine, and the lotus lotus skirt corner was embroidered with a cluster of roses with slightly darker silk threads of the same color, which looked chic and uneye-catching.

There is no girl who doesn't like beautiful clothes, even if Yao Qisu is used to being unkempt, she will still be unable to walk when she sees a good-looking skirt.

Seeing Yao Ji get off the kang, Liu put the shining copper plate on the small table, hurriedly greeted it, and lifted the curtain and hung it on the carved copper hook.

Yao Qi reached out and touched the clothes, and was surprised in her heart, it looked like ordinary linen, but when she touched it, the feel was much softer and more delicate than that of linen, and she looked at Liu suspiciously.

Liu smiled, she originally thought that it was a waste for Shizi to go to great lengths to make clothes for such a girl from a humble background, but I was afraid that this girl would not be able to tell the difference between the material and the material.

Unexpectedly, as Jin Yu said, this girl looks rude, but she is a knowledgeable person.

The smile on her face deepened: "The prince said that the girl doesn't like silk and satin, saying that it is not strong and durable, but the linen that the girl likes is too rough and hard, so I thought of this method, the girl touched, is it different from ordinary linen." ”

Yao Qi's fingertips slowly rubbed at the corners of her skirt, and she sighed in her heart, the wisdom of the ancients is really infinite, isn't this the prototype of the blend she often wore in her previous life?

It's just that the blends in the previous life were all machine-woven, but now this blend is all made by manpower.

Every stitch is full of sincerity!

Yao Qi raised her eyebrows slightly, which little girl can withstand this kind of moisturizing and silent warmth, if this is a little girl who has not been deeply involved in the world, she would have thrown herself into the mouse trap a long time ago.

It's a pity that she is neither a little girl nor a deep dwelling in the world, this little favor really can't move her.

She pretended to be a little reluctant, and slowly let go of her hand, with a faint smile on her face, and her eyes were sparsely dropped: "Thank you, Lord Envoy." She raised her hand again and rubbed the corner of her clothes, as if she was a little embarrassed and smiled: "Aunt Liu is busy, I'll change it myself." ”

Liu Shiruo glanced at Yao Qi's hand unintentionally, then retracted his gaze, and said respectfully: "Miss Aqi, is the morning food placed in the guest room, or do you go to the front hall to use it with the prince?" ”

Yao Qi pondered for a while, to be honest, she didn't really want to eat in front of Han Changdu's cold face, as if she owed him eight hundred yuan, in front of that face, not only could she not eat one more bowl, but she had to eat one less bite.

If you don't eat well, you won't be refreshed on this day.

She seems to have a lot of errands to do today!

Yao Qi decided to follow his heart, and had a meal of morning food peacefully, and said with a smile: "Just put the morning food in the guest room, and I will go to see the envoy after I finish it." ”

Liu Shi answered, quickly retreated, and covered the door with his backhand.

Yao Qi watched the door close tightly, then reached out and rubbed it on the soft corner of his clothes twice, before letting go of his hand, turned around and opened the carved camphor wood box resting on the wall, and turned out the washed half-worn skirt from it and put it on.

Most of Yao Qi's clothes are made of this material, no embroidery, plain to the end, the skirt is not big, the sleeves are narrow, there is no superfluous decoration, although it is plain, it is not ugly, and it is more convenient to fight.

Hanfu's morning food has always been simple and light, the soup is the majority, at most add a meat steamed bun the size of half a fist, Yao Qi ate it in one bite, not hungry at all, before it was time for lunch, she felt that her heart and back were tightly together.

But today's morning food is surprising, not to mention sumptuous, there is a hard dish, and there is a plate of flax cakes next to it, which can be broken and eaten with the roasted meat.

Yao Ji ate a round belly, wiped his mouth with satisfaction, and went to the front hall.

Walking out of the guest room, the yard was swept spotlessly, Yao Qi lived in the Han Mansion for many days, from the guest room to the front hall, this road has long been familiar to the heart, she walked over to the morning light, and found that there were a few more handmaidens with fresh faces on this road.

The sun is getting brighter, the front hall is bright, there is no light in the hall, the bookcases are full, the corners are leaking out of the sound of even and clear sound, or there is a half-sound of turning the pages of the book, the hall is quiet and a little weird.

Hearing the familiar footsteps approaching, Han Changdui raised his head from the desk and saw the girl who walked in against the light, the white-washed skirt on her body became more and more pale in the sun, and she could hardly see her original appearance.

The corners of his lips hung down slightly, vaguely irritable, he stabilized his mind, nodded at the next Hu bed and said, "Sit." ”

Yao Qi saluted, answered yes, sat down calmly, and looked at Han Changdu's inquiring eyes, she pretended to be confused and looked dazed.

Han Changdui only felt that his heart was choking, and he didn't know how to ask, so he had to hold back stiffly, and said lightly: "Gu Chen will come over in a while." ”

Yao Qi smiled happily: "Yes, thank you, my lord." ”

Han Changdu's heart was sour, like swallowing a handful of green apricots, and he said in an unkind tone: "Gu Chen is a subordinate of this official, what are you thanking for?" ”

Yao Qi didn't know where Han Changdu's evil fire came from, she didn't want to know, she didn't want to delve into it, hearing Han Changdu's words, she raised her eyebrows disapprerovingly, lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

The tea is new, the warmth of the drying is just right, Yao Qi took a sip, the tea is bright and clear, faintly tender green, the entrance is mellow and fragrant, and the aftertaste is sweet and sweet.

She is not a person who understands tea, and tea tasting is limited to bitterness and astringency, but today this tea is very appetizing.

Seeing Yao Qi nodding again and again while drinking tea, Han Changdui swept away the previous depression and said with a smile: "This tea is Xinyang Maojian before the Ming Dynasty, if you like it, I will let people put it in your room and take it to Yuhua Mountain in a while." ”

"The humble profession does not understand tea, and does not know how to taste it, drinking tea is similar to drinking sugar water, such a good tea, it is a tyrannical thing to drink to the humble profession, this tea is only suitable for elegant people like the envoy." As soon as she heard this, Yao Qi subconsciously refused, she knew that the tea of Xinyang Maojian had always been tribute tea, and the tea before the Ming Dynasty was even rarer, after paying tribute to the palace every year, Emperor Yong'an himself would leave half of it, and the rest would be used to reward people.

If the noble family of the high-ranking family gets this tea rewarded by Emperor Yong'an, let alone drink it, it is impossible to drink it, and it will only be used as a face to offer, so that it is convenient for guests to show off when they visit.

Like Han Changdu, who wants to give it away, and gives it to a little-known little soldier who joined the army, he dares to send it, and Yao Ji doesn't have the courage to continue.

Yao Qi's refusal was too crisp and neat, and the smile slowly solidified on Han Changdu's face, and he stared at Yao Qi with a faint expression for a moment before he spit out a word: "Okay." ”

Yao Qi was inexplicably stared at by Han Changdu, opened his mouth, and before he could say anything, he heard a sound of weak and stumbling footsteps.

She hurriedly turned her head and saw two maidservants, one on the left and one on the right, supporting Gu Chen, and slowly walked into the front hall.

It was only at this time, seeing the living Gu Chen coming over, that Yao Qi really felt that Gu Chen was indeed awake, she suddenly greeted him, supported him, and looked up and down: "Old Gu, it looks like you are okay, you are not so seriously injured." ”

Gu Chen sneered bitterly: "Yes, yes, it's still early to die." ”

When Yao Qi heard this, he and Gu Chen looked at each other and smiled.

Han Changdui's eyes were pierced by this scene, and he coughed lightly and said, "Gu Zongqi is okay?" ”

Only then did Gu Chen remember where he was, and who else was here, so he hurriedly saluted: "Yes, thank you for your great kindness, you can do an errand." ”

Han Changdui said "um", he was originally going to let Gu Chen sit next to Yao Qi, thinking of the scene just now, he nodded at the Hu bed opposite Yao Qi with his backhand: "Sit down and talk." ”

Gu Chen replied yes and moved to the opposite side with difficulty.

Yao Qi grabbed Gu Chen's arm, smiled at Han Changdui and said, "My lord, Gu Zongqi's serious injury has not healed, and he is very weak, so it is better to let him sit next to the humble position, in case he faints, the humble position can still help him." ”

Saying that, without waiting for Han Changdui to nod, she helped Gu Chen to the seat next to her and sat down, and chuckled half-truthfully: "Gu Zongqi, say it before you faint, I'm going to stay away, so as not to hit me." ”

Gu Chen sighed and rolled his eyes.

Han Changwan rubbed his heart imperceptibly, and saw that the two of them had already sat down, and slowly took a breath: "Gu Chen, do you remember the situation in Qingyun Village that day?" ”

Gu Chen nodded and said, "Remember." He tilted his head and recalled for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "At that time, the lowly rank had already escorted His Royal Highness the King of Han and ran out, and also covered up the traces along the way, but I don't know what happened, the water bandits caught up so fast. ”

These were already known to Han Changdu, and he thought, "Even if the water bandits chase after them extremely fast, with your skills, you shouldn't be injured so badly." ”

Gu Chen also nodded, puzzled: "That's true, these bandits are just a group of rabble, not to mention seven or eight, even a dozen, and they are not lowly opponents." He pondered and carefully recalled the situation at that time: "But when the lowly and the bandits were doing it, there were always bursts of sharp voices in their ears, which made the lowly and distracted, and then the water bandits took advantage of the loophole and injured the lowly position." ”

"Sharp voice," Han Changdu's brows furrowed, and he asked puzzledly, "What kind of sharp voice do you think came from?" ”

Gu Chen condensed and said, "Yes, it sounds like the sound of blowing the blades." He paused slightly, and added: "Extremely sharp and harsh." ”

Hearing this, Yao Qi, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke: "Lord Envoy, I remember that twenty years ago, there was a master of hidden weapons in Yunwei Academy, and the disciples taught by his hands were all masters of hidden weapons in the Dajing Dynasty, and the hidden weapons used were also varied, including blades, but the blades were like flying knives, which were the strength to kill, and there was no use for disturbing people's minds. ”

Han Changdui bent his fingers and tapped lightly on the book, making two "tuk-tuk" soft sounds, he had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and most of what he saw were weapons such as swords, bows and crossbows, and hidden weapons, which killed people in intangible things, he saw little, and the most powerful thing he saw was the shadowless silk in Yao Qi's hand.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Yao Ji and asked meaningfully: "Is the shadowless silk of Yao joining the army also from Yunwei Academy?" ”

Yao Qi was slightly stunned, pinched his cuffs quietly, and smiled casually: "This secret weapon that can't be put on the table is just made in the shop in the West Market, where it can climb up to Yunwei Academy." ”

Hearing Han Changdui and Yao Qi playing a sharp edge, Gu Chen lowered his eyes, but his eyes quickly glanced at the two of them, he knew that although Yao Qi could use swords, bows and crossbows, but the most convenient one to use was the shadowless silk, which has always been used by people in the forbidden army, and it was also passed out of the forbidden army, these are not hidden from the investigation of people with intentions, but Yao Qi talked about him left and right, half-truths and half-truths, obviously not afraid of Han Changdu's investigation.

Han Changwan didn't think about exploring Yao Qi's secret, he knew very well in his heart that Yao Qi's past was deliberately erased by someone with a heart, that person should know Yao Qi's identity, and this trick was to protect her, even so, there was no need for him to investigate everything.

He took a sip of tea and smiled slowly: "Really?" Then the craftsmanship of this shop is very good. He said that, looked up at Gu Chen and asked, "Gu Zongqi, do you remember from which direction that voice came from?" ”

Gu Chen has been in a coma for so long, and he can't remember many things clearly, but what Han Changdui asked about his life and death, he remembered it very clearly, and after a little contemplation, he recalled the situation at that time, and said firmly: "Later, when I remembered the first voice at first, I heard it very clearly, it came from behind the lowly position, and then the bandits caught up, and the lowly and them fought, the scene was a little chaotic, and the lowly official couldn't tell the direction from which the voice came." ”

Han Changdui said: "It came from behind, Gu Zongqi, then do you remember who you were before and after at that time?" ”

"At that time, the lowly position was responsible for exploring the way, there was no one in front, and the lowly position was behind," Gu Chen pondered: "The back of the lowly position is, it is Leng Shaoyin, and then there is Cheng Zongqi, and then the people behind it, the lowly position did not notice it." ”

Han Changwan glanced at Yao Qi, at that time in Qingyun Village, after he found Leng Linjiang and a few of them, he learned from Bao Cheng that Han Changyun was following Cheng Chaoyan, and Bao Cheng was following Han Changyun, according to common sense, as long as he followed behind Gu Chen, he was suspicious.

But he is the most suspicious person, the most unsuspecting, Leng Linjiang has no need to do anything to Gu Chen, Han Changyun has no such motive, as for Bao Cheng, he should not have this ability.

From this point of view, with this motive and ability, only Cheng Chaoyan is left.

She was close to Gu Chen, and there was a cold river in the middle, so it was easy to hide no matter what she did.

Han Changdui was originally suspicious of Cheng Chaoyan, but now when he heard Gu Chen say this, the suspicion in his heart became even deeper.

He condensed and said: "Okay, the situation at that time is clear to the official, Gu Zongqi, the saint is going to leave for Yuhua Mountain in two days to escape the summer, the Internal Security Department is responsible for supervising the hundred officials, this official wants you and He Zongqi to rush to Yuhua Mountain to set up defenses first, I don't know how your injuries are, can you move quickly?" ”

Hearing that there was an errand to do, and it was an errand that had the potential to make meritorious contributions, Gu Chen immediately came to his senses, swept away the weakness of Fang Cai, and said excitedly: "The injury of the lowly position is not hindered, don't worry, the lowly job will definitely not delay the errand." ”

"Okay," Han Changwan nodded, "What I said today, I still hope that Gu Zongqi is tight-lipped." ”

Gu Chen knew that Han Changdui already had a suspicious person in his heart, and he didn't do what he thought about and responded, after all, being in the Internal Security Division, doubting and being suspected were commonplace, Shangfeng suspected who he could not control, he just had to reply truthfully and do his part.
