This distant journey to Beijing finally came to an end a month later.

Apricot blossoms in March, grass grows warbler flying.

Everything is so new.

Only Ning Shu's good impression of Xie Yunyan did not increase but decreased, and she still scoffed.

On the contrary, after such a long run-in, Yuanwu has a much closer relationship with her and Long Shan.

Ning Shu looked through the carriage window, looked at the imminent Kyoto city gate, and whispered: "I don't know if my father and mother have arrived." ”

Xie Yunyan also rarely changed into a light cyan robe that matched the breath of spring, leaned against the car wall on the other side, and responded to her words lightly: "I haven't gotten the news, it shouldn't have arrived yet." ”

Ning Zhengjie and Mrs. Ning are not as old as their young people, and they obviously walked short, but they were still a few days late.

Ning Shu has a rough outline of Kyoto in her memory, but strictly speaking, she is still new to the capital, and she is more or less at a loss.

"And where am I going to live?"

After Ning Zhengjie was demoted, the Ning family's mansion had already been taken back by the imperial court, Ning Shu looked at Xie Yunyan in astonishment, "Lord Xie shouldn't let me live in the Xie Mansion, right?" ”

"Miss Ning is thinking too much." Xie Yunyan said in a normal tone: "The Ning family is not the only one in the Ning family, the big room and the third room are still in Beijing at this time. ”

Ning Shu said a little uncomfortably: "Uncle and third uncle? ”

In the impression of the original owner, there is a grandmother of the Ning family in the Ning Mansion, and originally Ning Zhengjie's house also lived with the ancestral house of the Ning family, but the eldest aunt's status was far inferior to Ning Shu's mother He's, for fear that the power of the main mother in charge of the feed would be taken away by the He family, so she worked hard to make the second room and the big house separate.

As for the three-bedroom ......

It is the only concubine, and there is no right to speak in the Ning family.

If the uncle disagrees, the third uncle naturally does not dare to make decisions without permission.

This can be seen from the third uncle's closed-door behavior after Ning Zhengjie was demoted back then.

"That's it...... Nowhere else to go? Ning Shu lowered her voice and analyzed with Xie Yunyan with an unusually serious expression:

"Master Xie, you said that my father and mother have not returned to the capital, and we have always been degraded status, is it unreasonable for me to appear in Kyoto rashly?"

Xie Yunyan nodded, waiting for her next step.

Seeing that he was "quite patient" to listen to his words, Ning Shu became energetic: "It's better for me and Long Shan to find an inn to settle down first, and my father and mother will also arrive in Kyoto in these days." ”

"Getting to the point."

"I've been away from Kyoto for more than two years, and I'm not familiar with the capital, can you lend me the Yuanwu guards for a few days?"

Ning Shu finished speaking in one breath, and felt that her breathing was much smoother.

She wanted to visit Kyoto before her father and mother arrived, and all she needed was a trusted local guide.

"You don't want to go to Ning's house?" Xie Yunyan asked rhetorically.

"Yes."

Ning Shu sighed and said truthfully: "Human nature is thin and cold, and blood relatives are still like this, not to mention my niece who is separated by generations?" ”

Xie Yunyan's half-drooping eyes raised slightly, stared at Ning Shu's face for a moment, and finally endured the words of raising the bar.

"In that case, then Miss Suining."

There are also many idle courtyards in Xie Mansion, and Xie Yunyan also had the idea of taking Ning Shu into Xie Mansion at first.

It's just that men and women don't kiss, plus his mother......

Xie Yunyan shook his head, immediately interrupted his ridiculous thoughts, and continued: "However, it is best for Miss Ning not to wander around in the capital, so as not to be seen by acquaintances. ”

"Don't worry."

"Also, my injuries still have to be dressed every day."

Xie Yunyan's face was as usual, and his tone was neither salty nor light.

Ning Shu had already used Vientiane Gu to treat his wounds along the way.

Although the wound had not healed, the recovery was much faster than the medicine he had used.

It's long past enough to be able to take care of yourself.

"You ......"

Ning Shu was speechless for a while, what if he rejected him, and then he took Yuan Wu back?

always felt that agreeing to his conditions was as if he had suffered a loss, Ning Shu felt a subtle unhappiness, and smiled hypocritically: "Okay." However, the previous medicine money was paid by me in advance, shouldn't Lord Xie express it? ”

Xie Yunyan's slender and white fingers pointed at the lake-blue clothes on her body and nodded, no longer making a sound.

This is to remind her that the money she bought the clothes that day has not been repaid?

Good guys, I'm even more upset now!

……

With Xie Yunyan's waist card, the customs clearance was unimpeded, and the carriage slowly drove into the Kyoto city gate and blended into the bustling crowd.

Xie Yunyan placed Ning Shu in an inn that was only a foot away from Xie Mansion, and told Yuanwu Haosheng to protect Ning Shu, at least until Ning Zhengjie returned to Kyoto, Ning Shu should be safe and sound.

Ning Shu stepped on the stool and got out of the carriage, Xu sat for too long, and her legs and feet didn't obey the call.

It was still holding Long Shan's arm to force himself to stand firm.

After seeing Xie Yunyan leave, Ning Shu looked around the gorgeous street scene of Kyoto, and reluctantly turned around and stepped into the inn.

There is still a long time, and there is no rush for a while.

The inn is located in the most lively area of Kyoto, and it is directly opposite the most famous teahouse in Kyoto, the Star Tower.

At this moment, in a luxurious box on the third floor of the Star Picking Building, a man was watching with interest the back of Shuli who walked into the inn with Ning Shu, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly, "It's Xie Yunyan just now, right?" ”

Behind him stood a cold-faced guard, looking through the open window at the scarlet canopy carriage that disappeared around the corner of the street, bowing slightly.

"Back to Your Highness, exactly."

The fourth prince, Chu Huaiye, picked up the jade teacup on the table and took a sip gently, his deep eyes revealing a strong color of conspiracy.

"Go find out who he brought back."

"Yes."

……

In the mottled princess's mansion, the exquisite furnishings that can be seen everywhere all show the identity and dignity of the owner of the mansion.

Princess Huairou stood by the jade lake in the garden, bored and threw fish food into the lake.

More than a dozen palace maids stood respectfully to the side and bowed their heads, not even daring to gasp.

The princess has been in a particularly bad mood recently, and she has insulted them lightly and beaten them at the worst, making them feel like walking on thin ice every day in the princess's mansion.

Sure enough, Princess Huairou's mood today is not beautiful.

She suddenly threw all the fish food in her hand into the lake, turned her head and glared at the palace maids, and said angrily: "Who brought this fish food?" After losing so much, why don't you see the fish come out? ”

A palace maid trembled and knelt on the ground instantly, "Princess, it's a slave maid......"

She is only responsible for getting fish food, but the purchase of fish food has nothing to do with her.

Princess Huairou's eyes lit up, "Drag her out of the ...... for me"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a long shout.

"Report! Report! ”

The janitor ran out into the garden with a pang, followed by a city guard.

"Princess Qiyu, there is news, Lord Xie has returned to Beijing."

Princess Huairou's eyes lit up, and her brisk figure passed by the palace maid who was kneeling on the ground, and she asked excitedly, "You said that Brother Yun Ember is back?" ”
