Li Yuejiao was sent home by Xue Zhen, and the two of them walked slowly, stop-and-go, through the bustle and quietness of Anhua City.

Li Yuejiao was eating a sugar painting, and she could always see a lot of sergeants from the Zhenbei Army on the road, and when she saw them, she would stop and salute her head.

After seeing too much, Li Yuejiao was embarrassed and asked Xue Zhen, "Does the prince still have something to do?"

"It's okay," Xue Zhen said as he walked, "I'm just afraid that those Chen Guoliu soldiers will take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble."

Li Yuejiao said: "The days of that son of the world have been hard."

"It's okay, I sat with my cousin for a while tonight," Xue Zhen said with a smile, "He said that Shopkeeper Feng was relieved and he would see him in the next year."...

When Li Yuejiao heard this, she immediately opened her eyebrows and laughed, and said, "That's good, every time I hear Shopkeeper Feng tossing my cousin, I feel very sad, I always feel that it is because I have affected him."

Xue Zhen disagreed: "How can the girl be involved? If you say that it is involved, I am also involved."

Li Yuejiao laughed again, ate the sugar painting in her hand, and felt that although she was homesick because of leaving home this year, in general, she had a good time.

By the time he got home, Qin Le and the others had already arrived home.

The owner of the sugar painting stall had already sent more than ten sugar paintings to people, Cuiliu opened the courtyard door, stood by the door and looked, and saw from a distance that it was Li Yuejiao and Xue Zhen who came back, and hurriedly retreated into the courtyard, not daring to disturb.

Xue Zhen didn't say anything more, just glanced at Li Yuejiao, said "good night", and left.

Li Yuejiao held a half-eaten sugar painting, stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched, and waited until his back disappeared at the end of the street, then he ate up the sugar painting in his hand and turned back to the courtyard.

In the courtyard, Cuiliu pointed to the sugar paintings held by the other three Cui, and asked with a smile:

"Ma'am, how do you put these things? How does Madame buy so much? It's all this hour, how can you eat tonight?"

Li Yuejiao looked at the pile of sugar paintings, also smiled, and said, "Leave me that phoenix Yu Fei's sugar painting, I will eat it tomorrow, and you can eat the rest."

Everyone laughed and said yes.

Qin Le had just removed the hairpin ring, and when he heard that she was back, he stood at the door of the house, and also shouted to Cuiliu with a smile:

"Take it and let me see, what kind of candy painting is so beautiful? It's worth it for you to buy so much?"

Li Yuejiao stepped up the steps and grimaced at Qin Le, "Why did Senior Sister clean up so early? Isn't it like my sister used to be?"

Qin Le saw that her face was tired, and pushed her and said, "What about me? Look at your face, go wash up and go to sleep, if you really haven't had enough, let's play again tomorrow."

Li Yuejiao listened to her words and yawned.

It's really not early now, and she walked back with Xue Zhen again, so she was quite tired.

"Then Senior Sister Ming'er will accompany me to Tuntian to have a look." She proposed.

"Okay."

When Li Yuejiao was about to go back to the house to sleep, Zheng Xiaoxi poked his head out of his room and said nervously with a pale face:

"Big sister, I'm going to rest? I, I have something important to say to you."

"What's wrong?" Li Yuejiao saw that his face was not good, and her sleepiness disappeared, so she cheered up and asked.

Zheng Xiaoxi hurriedly walked over, attached to her ear, and whispered in a trembling voice:

"Big sister, I, I heard the people who sent me to the northern frontier."

Li Yuejiao was stunned for the moment, staring at him with wide eyes, and didn't care about anything else, she just hurriedly pulled Zheng Xiaoxi to his room, and after calling Yuntuan to pour him hot tea, she sent Yuntuan to wait outside the door before asking in a low voice:

"Who is it? Can the sixth brother tell others? Can they see the Sixth Brother?"

I saw that Zheng Xiaoxi's hand holding the teacup was still shaking, and he said in a panic:

"No, I didn't dare to tell anyone, because ...... Because of my eldest sister, I was sure to hear that voice, but now I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I heard it wrong......

Li Yuejiao was confused by him, and wondered:

"Sixth brother, what are these words? Did you hear it right? still

Did you not hear me?"

Zheng Xiaoxi breathed heavily a few times, and it was easy to nod his head vigorously, and said firmly:

"I really heard it, but Cuiliu actually knew that person, so I ...... it."

Li Yuejiao thought that she had heard something, and stayed for a moment before asking:

"What Cuiliu? How could Cuiliu know those people?"

Zheng Xiaoxi said: "I heard Cuiliu call that person Mengtong, and the two of them greeted each other, and they looked very familiar."

Li Yuejiao was stunned for a moment, and stood up involuntarily, slammed the table, and her voice was so panicked that her voice was sharper, and she asked rhetorically:

"Who? Who is the sixth brother talking about?"

Outside the door, Yun Tuan heard the movement, and immediately pushed the door, and said, "Miss? What's wrong with Miss?"

"Don't come in!" Li Yuejiao said in a high voice, and then said to Zheng Xiaoxi, "Sixth brother, did you really hear correctly?"

"Listen, Cuiliu calls him Dream Boy." Zheng Xiaoxi looked at Li Yuejiao's appearance, and his heart was even more panicked, but when he finished saying this, he was even more sure that he had heard correctly.

"Big sister, I didn't dare to look at it, let alone ask Cuiliu, for fear of startling the snake, but I heard his voice, it was that person, I heard Cuiliu call him Brother Mengtong, and asked him where Master Du was, and that Mengtong said that he came to buy wine for their master...... Big sister, I heard you right, I listened to those two people all the way, and I know I heard me right."

Zheng Xiaoxi explained very eagerly, as if he was afraid that Li Yuejiao would not believe him, and said solemnly:

"Big sister, you have to believe me."

Li Yuejiao only felt that her heart was beating hard, her throat was thirsty, and she looked at Zheng Xiaoxi in a daze, as if she didn't believe it, as if she was trying to understand his words.

How can it be a dream child?

Mengtong is Du Day's personal servant, at least before she married to the Hou Mansion, he was already by Du Day's side.

How can it be a dream child?

Or, how could it be Du Day?

But another voice whispered in her ear to remind - how could it not be Du Day?

If the old marquis is so deeply involved in this matter, then as the son and nephew of the late old marquis wife Du, it is indeed logical for Du Tian to be involved.

It's Du Day.

"Then ...... him" Li Yuejiao tilted her head slightly, looking at Zheng Xiaoxi's flustered eyes, but her expression had gradually become firm, and muttered, "Why did you come to Northern Xinjiang?" He came to Anhua County...... Is it really looking for a book?"

"What?" Zheng Xiaoxi didn't understand, but looked at her in a panic and confusion.

Li Yuejiao came back to her senses and said busily:

"Sixth brother, you heard it right, I believe you won't hear it wrong. You have a good rest first, and I'll go find the son."

After that, Li Yuejiao didn't care about anything else, put on her cloak and left in a hurry.

Zheng Xiaoxi was restless in the room, still not understanding who Li Yuejiao was talking about.

But since Li Yuejiao knows each other, isn't that ...... He shuddered, not daring to think further.

*

Li Yuejiao walked out of the house, didn't call anyone, bypassed the shadow wall, pushed open the courtyard door and walked away.

Yun Tuan was standing outside the door just now, and he didn't know what Zheng Xiaoxi and Li Yuejiao said, but when he suddenly saw her like this, he was frightened at that time, and hurriedly called Hu Rong to follow.

Hu Rong was also taken aback, ordered the others to stay at home, and hurriedly followed.

Li Yuejiao was really confused, thinking that if it was really Du Day, then she had to tell Xue Zhen quickly.

The two of them never doubted or defended their cousin, who had poetry and books in his belly and was angry with Gao Hua.

If it was him, then Xue Zhen, who had met Du Tian tonight, was really not safe.

She hurriedly chased in the direction that Xue Zhen left, the road was slippery at night, she staggered, Hu Rong followed closely behind, very worried, and persuaded several times:

"Madam, why don't you go and get the prince back, or Madame will go by car?"

But Li Yuejiao couldn't think for a while, and only walked forward without turning a deaf ear.

She just wanted

Tell Xue Zhen about this quickly.

Fortunately, not long after they separated, Li Yuejiao caught up with Xue Zhen who was about to leave the city and go to the barracks in front of the general's mansion.

Li Yuejiao saw the figure standing like a Zhilan jade tree in the dark night, and the panic in her heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

"Shizi!" She called out a loud voice.

Xue Zhen turned his head, and chased after her at first glance when he saw her like this, and couldn't help but be startled, and ordered the sergeants to wait where they were, but he hurried over and said strangely:

"Girl? What's wrong with you?"

He asked, and frowned and glanced at Hu Rong, who was following closely, and saw that his face was also confused, but he became worried.

Li Yuejiao couldn't care about anything else, took Xue Zhen's arm, stepped aside, and said in a low voice:

"Dream Boy, it's Dream Child."

"Huh?" Xue Zhen knew who Mengtong was, but he was confused by Li Yuejiao, "What's wrong with Mengtong?"

"The person who brought the sixth brother to Anhua County was Mengtong, and the sixth brother heard Mengtong speak tonight." When Li Yuejiao hurriedly said this, she didn't know why, her eyes were hot, and she almost cried.

Xue Zhen shook his head for a moment, and finally understood the meaning of Li Yuejiao's words, a pair of peach blossom eyes shrank sharply due to the impact, and looked at her incredulously.

"Madame is talking...... What are you talking about?"

Even the salutation is blurted out.

Li Yuejiao grabbed Xue Zhen's arm and said eagerly: "Sixth brother won't hear it wrong, he said that it was Mengtong, I was afraid of long nights and dreams, so I came to tell you......

"Say no more." Before Li Yuejiao could finish speaking, Xue Zhen interrupted her, her voice dry and bitter, "Madam...... Girl, don't say it, I know."

Li Yuejiao paused, raised her eyes to look at him, and guessed whether the "knowing" in his mouth was to believe her or not.

Xue Zhen just repeated, "Don't say it."

He closed his eyes, as if suppressing the emotions in his heart, breathed deeply, exhaled slowly, but without a single breath, emotions were like the sharpest knives, cutting back and forth in his heart and lungs, in his throat, smashing the last of his sanity.

In this world, where is there anything more desperate than living for twenty-three years, only to find that the relatives and elders around you are petty people, and they are the ones who want to kill themselves?

Li Yuejiao looked at him in a daze, and suddenly found that something seemed to be gushing out of the corner of his eye, but it didn't fall.

She thought he was crying.

She suddenly felt very sad, completely different from the feeling she felt when she heard about the old marquis before and when she heard about Du Tian today, but she was a little familiar with it.

She remembered that when she heard Xue Zhen say that she doubted her mother, and after seeing the secret letter in her mother's codex, she was so sad.

Even though she has always trusted her mother, the moment she hears others talk about it, she can't help but feel suspicious, so that her beautiful memories are shattered and sad.

Xue Zhen is so sad now, right?

She thought, unconsciously raising her hand and wiping it from the corner of his eye.

And there were no tears.

The only thing that could be reached was his cold skin, which had no trace of temperature.

I can't even cry, I can't cry the sadness of tears.

After touching it, Li Yuejiao realized that she was out of control and overstepped her courtesy, and immediately withdrew her hand and took a step back, just as Xue Zhen opened her eyes and met her blank eyes.

Li Yuejiao's breathing almost stopped.

No, it shouldn't be like this.

She should have hated him very much, even if there was a misunderstanding between them, even if he apologized, she should have paid for the three years of mistime, wronged her mother for him, and hated him.

She took three steps back in a row, widening the distance between herself and Xue Zhen, and only said one sentence in a panic:

"If the son doesn't believe me, then forget it."

After that, she didn't even give Xue Zhen a chance to speak, turned around and left.

Hu Rong didn't know what was wrong with these two, and when he saw Li Yuejiao, he was in a hurry to come and go

, could only hurry up to give Xue Zhen a salute, turned around and hurriedly followed.

Xue Zhen stood in place, looking at her back, and didn't catch up.

On the skin in the corner of her eye, there was still the residual warmth of her fingertips.

Could it be that Li Yuejiao's palm temperature has always been very cold, he has held her hand a few times, and every time he feels that her hand is warm and cold, whether it is summer or winter.

But today, she held out her fingertips, warm and tender, dispelling the chill brought by early spring and the truth.

But until Li Yuejiao's back disappeared into the night, he didn't have the courage to catch up and tell her that of course he believed his words.

Because when he got the first letter, it was when Du Sun was present.

And only in this way can one thing make sense:

Why did Li Yuejiao hear him and Du Yan talking.

At that time, the people in the Anyang Marquis's Mansion knew their bad attitude towards Li Yuejiao, so even if they didn't order anyone to disturb them, they wouldn't let Li Yuejiao go to him easily.

And that time, he ordered no one to disturb, but Li Yuejiao still walked to the back garden and heard the conversation between herself and Du Day.

Later, he found out that it was a girl named Wufu and told her where he was.

Thinking about that time, he and Du Tian were just gossiping, and it was Du Sun who suddenly mentioned his discord with Li Yuejiao.

There are too many coincidences, and they can only be deliberate.

Xue Zhen thought, slowly exhaled a breath, turned around and called Chang Feng to say:

"This time, there is a girl named Wufu, you take someone to take her, don't let people die."

Chang Feng Yilin hurriedly said, "Yes, Shizi, the little one will go immediately."

"Also, go and call Lan Jun, I have something to tell him and his sister-in-law."

"Yes."
