Chapter Twenty-Seven: My Cousin Is So Cruel!

Shen Yanzhi was a little surprised by her sudden appearance, but it was very in line with Tang Li's temperament, and he was always surprised.

He turned his head away from Tang Li, held his forehead with the other hand, gently massaged his temples as he looked very tired, and said helplessly: "Just look at the moon." ”

Tang Li still maintained this posture of dragging Shen Yanzhi, stepped forward a few steps in front of Shen Yanzhi, stood on tiptoe and looked directly into his eyes, and asked suspiciously, "Really?" ”

Shen Yanzhi was a little hairy when she saw it, and he couldn't help but be a little nervous, kept blinking his eyes to avoid his eyes, and stumbled and said, "Really! ”

Shen Yan didn't know if she believed it or not, but yesterday he was indeed looking at the moon, but he wasn't specifically looking at the moon, but secretly thinking about people in his heart who shouldn't be thinking.

Tang Li looked at Shen Yanzhi's reaction thoughtfully, looking for the flaws between his actions, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that something was wrong, the truth was definitely not right as he said, but he was unwilling to say that he couldn't force it.

Thinking of this, Tang Li didn't continue to ask, suddenly let go of Shen Yanzhi's hand, stood on the steps and said with a condescending smile: "You also worked hard last night, go and rest, I'll go and wake up Xinglin and go to sleep." ”

After speaking, without waiting for a reaction, Tang Li turned around and walked towards Xinglin's room.

Shen Yanzhi looked at Tang Li's background, secretly thinking about whether she had seen through her lies just now, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, clenched her fists nervously in her sleeves, and slowly walked back to the room.

When Tang Li woke up, the sky had become a little dark, and through the screen, he could vaguely see the faint light from the oil lamp in the hall. Tang Carp was a little distracted, she actually slept all day?!

She stretched her waist and got up from the bed, slowly walked to the door of the hall and stopped, and took a look at Xinglin and Shen Yanzhi who were sitting in the courtyard.

Xinglin was bored with dinner, so he sat in the courtyard with Shen Yanzhi to admire the moon, and at this moment, when he saw Tang Carp going out, he hurriedly stood up and happily greeted Tang Carp, and asked, "Did Miss sleep well?" ”

Tang Li nodded quietly, touched his empty stomach with his hand, and replied: "After sleeping for a day, I'm too hungry, can I make dinner?" ”

"It's been ready for a long time, warm it on the pot, just wait for you to get up, Miss!" Xinglin threw the rag in his hand over his shoulder, turned around and went to the kitchen to serve food.

As soon as Xinglin left, Tang Li and Shen Yanzhi were left in the courtyard, the two looked at each other, Shen Yanzhi looked at Tang Li quietly without opening his mouth, but Tang Li felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he hurriedly turned around and sat down at the table in the house, waiting for the meal.

Shen Yanzhi looked at Tang Li's back and was a little puzzled, so he got up from under the pavilion, also walked to the house, walked to the door and said, "I thought you would ask me, how is the one lying in the house?" ”

Tang Li seemed to have really forgotten about this matter, and suddenly realized at this moment, and hurriedly asked, "That's right!" How is he? ”

Shen Yanzhi looked at her as an afterthought, and couldn't help but feel very happy, slowly sat down on the chair next to Tang Li, and said, "He's fine, it stands to reason that he will wake up tonight." ”

Tang Li breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and the guilt of forgetting his cousin dissipated instantly, and said with a smile: "Then he missed today's dinner~"

"Cousin is so ruthless, Yan Xuan came all the way over, you have to be stingy even for a meal!"

Tang Li and the two were attracted by the sudden sound in the room, and they all turned their heads to look at Yan Xuan who was standing at the door of the side room.

He had changed into clean clothes at this moment, and his face was brighter and bloodier with the cloud-green robe in the moonlight, and it was like a different person than the lifeless of last night. The hair is simply curled into a long ponytail hanging down the back of the head, which is very neat and neat, delicate and free.

Tang Li hurriedly stood up and said haha: "Yan Xuan, you woke up just right, you are very weak now, just make up for you." ”

Yan Xuan smiled slightly, slowly walked to the dining table and sat down, glanced at Shen Yanzhi beside Tang Li, and asked, "I don't know who this is?" ”

Without waiting for Shen Yanzhi to speak, Tang Li preemptively spoke: "This is Shen Yanzhi!" When I left the capital, I picked it up on the road! After saying that, he turned his head to meet Shen Yanzhi's eyes, smiled proudly, and turned back to continue: "Your injuries are what he showed you, and even the clothes on your body are his!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Tang Li suddenly frowned, turned his head to look at Shen Yanzhi, and asked, "Won't you change the clothes yourself?!" ”

Shen Yanzhi didn't speak with a smile when he heard this, and looked intently at the apricot forest who was going in and out of the dishes and bowls.

"Cousin, what do you say! When I woke up, I saw Shen Gongzi's clothes specially placed at the head of the bed, and the night clothes on my body were so stained with blood that I couldn't wear them, so I thought it was for me, so I changed it. Yan Xuan's eyes widened, and he hurriedly explained with his hands waving.

"Huh... Ha ha... Yan Zhi has a heart..."Tang Li laughed awkwardly twice, randomly changed the topic and asked, "What's the matter with you kid?" How can you be beaten like this? ”

"It's a long story at this time..."Yan Xuan sighed slightly, his brows tightened again, his face was entangled, as if something big was condensed in his heart.

"Miss and Young Master Cousin will catch up later, right? The dishes are ready, the weather is cold, and it should be cold in a while! Xinglin happily sat down with chopsticks and said while handing them out to everyone's bowls.

"Yes, yes, yes! Xinglin reminded me, you are still injured, you haven't eaten for a day, it's time to be hungry! Tang Li hurriedly agreed. No matter how big it is, it hasn't been born recently anyway, in short, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and eat first.

Yan Xuan took the dishes and chopsticks handed by Xinglin and put them on the table, nodded gratefully, looked at Shen Yanzhi beside Tang Li, stood up and said, "Thank you Brother Shen for helping!" ”

Shen Yanzhi smiled and stood up and replied, "Brother Yan doesn't have to be polite, just raise your hands. ”

The two glanced at each other, Tang Li saw that the two of them seemed to be about to say something sour, so he hurriedly grabbed Yan Xuan's sleeve, dragged him back to his seat, and sandwiched a whole bowl of vegetables for him, trying to plug his mouth.

After a stormy meal, Tang Lili collapsed on the chair with a full meal, and tapped his thighs with his fingers, which was very comfortable.

She leaned back slightly on the seat, her eyes swept over Yan Xuan's face from time to time, but her mind kept replaying the scenes that happened last night, and she kept guessing Yan Xuan's intentions.

Although she was very happy to see her cousin again, Yan Xuan's reaction this time was very unusual, she was always frizzy when she was a child in the past, and it was rare to see Yan Xuan in a hurry, but at this moment, Yan Xuan was still frowning while eating.

Just when Tang Li's mind was wandering out of the world and in the clouds, Yan Xuan had already put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"Cousin, I've been thinking about how to tell you just now, Xu Ran has changed a lot in the years since you left, he has become violent, he has become cruel, he is no longer the person we knew before, although with the relationship between the two of you, you may not believe what I said, but this time he asked me to come to you! Also let me bring this. Yan Xuan said with a serious expression, revealing resentment and annoyance between his words.

As he spoke, Yan Xuan took out a very rough bamboo slip from his sleeve and stretched out his hand to hand it to Tang Li.

"What's wrong with you? What happened to Xu Ran? ”

Tang Li was a little shocked, and even forgot to take the bamboo slip, what is going on? Why did Yan Xuan suddenly become so hostile to Xu Ran?

"You'll know when you look at it!" After that, Yan Xuan stuffed the bamboo slips into Tang Li's hand.

Tang Lili took the bamboo slip, doubted, and slowly pulled off the rope that was tied, only to find that the outer layer of the bamboo slip wrapped in a layer of oil film had been basically eaten off by insects, the blue faded, it looked gray, and it was a little difficult to hold in his hand, the whole bamboo slip looked tortured for a long time, and even the new oil film could not cover its weather-beaten scars.

Looking at this tattered bamboo slip, Tang Li was a little distracted, this bamboo slip has been broken like this, will the things contained in it still be a good thing?

Tang Li's heart was full of doubts, and he still carefully unfolded the bamboo slip in his hand, but what Tang Li never expected was that at the moment she opened it, she saw a name, a name that had not appeared for many years - Tang Yin.

This is actually a nautical note written by my father!

Just when Tang Li was shocked, Yan Xuan didn't have much emotional ups and downs, obviously he already knew what Xu Ran asked him to bring.

"This is my uncle's codex, and it is a record of the voyages of my uncle and the first emperor when the Guangyun Kingdom was not established. The second voyage is the one we experienced, more than ten years have passed, the life and death of the uncle and the first emperor are unknown, all we know is the fact that they still followed the last voyage.

But it is very clear in this codex that there were only two stops on the first voyage, so the uncle must have more than two stops this time, and they must have encountered some unpredictable things, so they failed to come back. ”

Tang Li held his father's notes in his hand, and the memories that he had worked hard to forget for decades seemed to come back in an instant, filling his mind, and his heart was sour for a while, and he forgot to respond to Yan Xuan's words.

Yan Xuan stretched out his hand to hold Tang Li's shoulder, hesitated for a moment and continued: "Not long ago, along with dozens of other founding ministers, I was summoned by Xu Ran to the palace to participate in the night banquet.

He informed our family that we had committed the crime of rebellion by secretly hiding the elixir of immortality, and that if we did not hand it over, we would all be put to death, even the whole clan.

Now that the Mongol Cavalry Rebellion has been put to rest, he has the power of the army, and he has treated us even more unscrupulously, and everyone in the DPRK and China is in danger for fear of stepping on something wrong, and no one dares to raise objections to his actions. ”

Tang Li has always remembered her childhood friendship and has a lot of respect for Xu Ran, and when she heard him do such a ridiculous thing for a while, she really couldn't believe it, and would rather Xu Ran be bewitched by others.
