"Be careful!"

Seeing Li Shining swinging his knife forward, Su Chen hurriedly pulled the person away.

But seeing that Cai Cai took a few steps forward, he didn't move with the knife in his hand, and in front of his chest was a long sword that entered from behind, Li Shining's eyes widened and his face was painful.

He opened his mouth, blood oozing out, but before he could say a word, he fell to the ground.

Only then did people react, and some of the timid couldn't help but cry out in fright.

The shopkeeper and the servants saw it, but they looked up at the stairs.

Gu Xinian also looked up, only to see someone who looked like this from upstairs at some point.

He was tall and tall, and his clothes were of inky black fine silk, and the hem of his garment was delicately embroidered with a gold-trimmed pattern, which matched the crown of fine jade on his head, and his skin became fairer and fairer.

Under a silver mask, there are two dark black pupils, which faintly glow with a slight dark purple, which looks even deeper, and the glittering cold light adds a bit of indifference to people.

He was flanked by two guards in black robes, one of whom had only the scabbard of his sword at his waist.

"Master......"

The diners talked a lot, and the shopkeeper glanced at Li Shining, who fell to the ground, and stepped forward respectfully, waiting for the man's speech.

I saw that the man's eyes were indifferent, looking at the people on the ground, and then moving his gaze to Gu Xinian on the side.

"Handle it cleanly."

Gu Xinian only felt that the person's gaze and voice were the same, extremely cold, and at that moment, in their eyes, it was as if they were going to kill her.

As soon as he finished speaking, the man withdrew his gaze, took a step, went downstairs, and walked towards the door.

The diners who were close avoided one after another, making way for an avenue, and when a few people passed by, the guard, who lacked a sword, easily pulled out the sword inserted in Li Shining's body.

When passing by Gu Xinian's side, a faint fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, and he couldn't tell what kind of fragrance it was, but it smelled very good.

Gu Xinian looked at the back of the departing figure, feeling inexplicably familiar.

After such a scene, most of the diners were not in the mood to continue eating, and paid and left.

Looking at Li Shining who was carried away by the little guys on the ground, Gu Xinian's eyes were indifferent, this kind of person is not a pity to die.

"Cherish the New Year, it seems that there is no luck today, let's go back to eat the horn."

Su Chen touched his nose and mourned silently in his heart, it was really unlucky to encounter such an incident just after he came back.

Gu Xinian glanced at Su Chen, who seemed to only have food in his eyes, smiled, and responded.

"Okay."

As he spoke, he retracted his gaze, got into the carriage with Su Chen, and left.

Not long after the two of them left, an attendant hurriedly came with a large number of people, and this person was none other than Li Shining's father.

After hearing that Li Shining was dead, and it should have been according to the rules, he was dragged to cut off his head and hang it at the south gate, but he rolled his eyes and fainted.

So a group of people carried the person back in a panic.

It's really a hurry to come and go.

On the carriage, Gu Xinian asked Su Chen about the cyclamen.

"Su Chen, that man just now is their master?"

"Yes, it is said that he is ruthless and bloodthirsty."

As he spoke, he paused, only to see Su Chen adjust his comfortable posture, lean to the side, and continue to explain.

"He set the rule that cyclamen should not make trouble, and those who violated this rule were cut off and hung at the south gate."

Gu Xinian imagined the scene of people's heads swaying in the wind on the door, and she had goosebumps, she raised her eyebrows, so these people must not be scared to death?

"What's the origin of this cyclamen, as if no one dares to mess with it? It's okay if he's not afraid of anything, even the emperor doesn't care about him. ”

"This person, his background is not yin, and he only knows his surname Mo, but I was interested before, and I inquired about it and said that it was called Mo Yanjue.

This cyclamen also opened suddenly a year or two ago.

At the beginning, because most of the customers were monopolized by cyclamen, many children of the family, eunuchs and merchants looked at it unpleasantly, but they were helpless.

The conspiracy was useless, and some of them were returned even more severely, so someone made trouble in front of the emperor.

Originally, the emperor was going to take care of it, but for some reason, after summoning this Mo Yanjue once, his attitude changed greatly and he was polite everywhere.

He even decreed that those who did not follow the rules of cyclamen should be disposed of by him. ”

Hearing this, Gu Xinian touched his chin, which is interesting.

Speaking of this, Su Chen rolled his eyes and smiled.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Ahem, people guess that the emperor and Mo Yanjue made a deal, but what kind of deal is this...... Ahem, ahem, I don't know. ”

Trade......

Looking at Su Chen's inexplicable smile, Gu Xinian understood in seconds.

Thinking of Fang Cai Mo Yanjue's appearance, although the mask covers his face clearly, he should not be bad when he thinks about it, and he is even handsome, if this emperor is a pot-bellied old greasy ......

Gu Xinian shook his body, not daring to think about the unspeakable deal anymore.

Many years later, Gu Xinian didn't expect to be almost bent when he mentioned this unspeakable deal to Mo Yanjue again.

Naturally, that's an afterthought.

The carriage drove away, and soon arrived.

Su Chentu is pure, most of the people with heads and faces in the mansion given by the emperor are over there, and he didn't go once.

Instead, he chose a quieter street and bought a house, which is exactly what Gu Xinian wants.

When I arrived at the palace, someone went out to greet him, and when I looked closely, the leader was an honest housekeeper, who seemed to be about thirty people.

Seeing Su Chen, his face was full of excitement and joy.

"Young Master, you can be regarded as back! If you don't come back, the old slave will think that something has happened to you outside!

You said that you are the only seedling left in our Su Mansion, if something happens to you, how can the old slave explain to the emperor and the queen mother, how to explain to the deceased old lady! ”

"Oops, okay, okay. Uncle Wang, I'm such a big person, what else can happen? But I've been out for a long time, and I'm just a little late when I come back. ”

"A little late? You said that you would come back in a month at most, it's been more than four months, and you don't send a message back, why don't you say the old slave is worried? ”

Uncle Wang clapped his hands and frowned, looking loveless, and Gu Xinian couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips.

"You've been out for so long, and you don't expect to come back within the time, and you don't write a letter, of course they think something happened to you, so who shouldn't worry?"

Seeing Gu Xinian speak, Uncle Wang noticed her.

Looking at Gu Xinian's appearance, Uncle Wang was stunned, the two looked back and forth, and finally looked at Gu Xinian holding Su Chen's arm, his eyes lit up, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was gloomy.

"It's ...... Our wife? This is a good feeling! The old slave thought that you had something else to do, but it turned out that you were looking for a lady!

When is the young master going to do something? The old slave shouted at them to do it. It's always time to add Ding to the house soon, and if the old lady knows, she will be happy! ”

After hearing the words, Gu Xinian and Su Chen were both stunned, and then glanced at each other, both helpless.

"Uncle Wang, what nonsense, I should be a sister in the New Year."

Hearing an answer that was different from what he thought, Uncle Wang showed pity in his eyes.

Su Chen was afraid that he would think something again, so he hurriedly opened the topic.

"Oh, Uncle Wang, let's prepare food, we have been on the road this morning until now, and we haven't eaten yet, and we are starving to death."

"Look at me! Fuxing, go and let the kitchen prepare food, and say that the young master is back. ”

A subordinate beside him left in response, and Su Chen took Gu Xinian to enter the mansion with Uncle Wang.

"Uncle Wang, after a while, you let people clean up the yard next door, it's a girl, and it's not safe to live outside, and she will live in the yard next door to me in the future, and if you lack something, you can buy it from the house."

"Hey, the slave remembered, the meal will come soon, young master, you wait a while, the slave will go and order the next person to clean up the house for the girl."

"Well, go ahead."

——

On the street, a carriage of extreme wealth drove by, and finally stopped in front of the door with the word "Yefu" on it.

The man who came down from the carriage was a robe made of fine silk cloth with fine moire embroidery on it, and a jade pendant made of mutton fat jade at the waist.

The eyebrows are just right, the long hair is tied up by the jade crown, and the corners of the mouth are smiling.

When the subordinate saw the person, he hurriedly went in to report, led the person into the house, and entered the lobby.

"The courtiers have seen the second prince."

The one who saluted, dressed as a woman, looked like she was in her thirties, and many maids and women beside her also followed suit.

This person is none other than the current wife of Ye Mansion, Li Xiangru.

"No courtesy, can Cheng Huan be in the house?"

"The second prince is seated, and the courtiers have already asked their subordinates to summon Huan'er. Come and watch the tea. ”

Mo Fengchi, who was sitting down, nodded, looked at the tea brewed, and saw that no one had come yet, so he found a topic to talk about.

"Prime Minister Ye is not in the house?"

"Master, he was just passed into the palace by the emperor, and it was not long before he left, and the second prince came."

Mo Fengchi nodded and flicked the wrench on his hand.

"The poetry meeting of the Gloomy Pavilion, did Huan'er ever talk to Mrs.?"

Hearing this, Li Xiangru smiled: "Huan'er told me about my mother earlier, and she mentioned it to me this morning, and it looks like I didn't let her go."

You said that the child wanted to go, and the second prince invited him, how could I disagree, it's just that Huan'er rarely goes out of the house, and she has to trouble the second prince on a cloudy day, so take care of Huan'er more. ”

"This is natural, not to mention that this poem will be mixed, and it is not safe for Huan'er and a woman to be outside. As far as Huan'er and I are still married, I should take care of her. ”

Seeing that Mo Fengchi was so polite, Li Xiangru smiled even more at the corner of his mouth.

"In a few months, Huan'er will be married, and your marriage can be put on the agenda.

When Huan'er gets married, I'm a mother, I'm waiting to find someone for Xia'er, and in the future, I'll wait to hold my grandson. ”

"Mother, what are you talking about?"

At the door, the girl who came suddenly had a beautiful appearance, a tulle Qiluo skirt, and a graceful posture.

She looked at the people in the room and bowed in a proper manner.

"I've seen the second prince."

"Didn't you say that you don't have to salute when you see me?"

Mo Fengchi saw the person coming, got up and stepped forward, helped him up, and his eyes were full of joy.

"The second prince is the prince, and Huan'er is just a courtier, how can there be a reason not to salute."

Ye Chenghuan smiled at the corner of his mouth, and under his remarks, he looked even more gentle and polite, and he was extremely human.

Li Xiangru looked at the two of them, smiled, and saw her roll her eyes and say:

"Huan'er, my mother still has some things, and she has to go out of the house. Hello, talk to the second prince, don't be lazy. It's boring to look in this lobby, so it's better to go to the backyard and take a look. ”

As he spoke, he saluted Mo Feng Chi and left with his subordinates.
