Chapter 68: The Uninvited Guest

Seeing this, Twilight couldn't help but redden, "Qingluo, you...... What are you doing here?"

Chuan Xia probably guessed what was going on, but he also insisted on persuading, "If we came together, we naturally want to go back together."

"Lord, persuade him." Twilight Chun stepped forward to help Qingluo, but Qingluo didn't want to get up, but just bowed her head to the ground to hide the falling tears.

Ye Sili's eyes were moist, and he couldn't hold back his crying and looked at the person in front of him silently.

He couldn't afford it, she was silent.

So long.

Finally, a tear slid down his cheek, Ye Sili raised his hand to wipe it away, his throat was sour, and he said:

"In the past, Qingluo had a lot of merit in the matter of Liangcheng, but now there is no owner in Liangcheng, Qingluo is the best candidate, from now on, Qingluo will be the governor of Liangcheng, and the lord of the county on the side of the court will ask for a decree."

Twilight Chun and Chuan Xia froze in place, only to hear Qingluo take a deep breath and reply in a slightly nasal voice, "Thank you Lord for your success."

Qingluo kowtowed heavily, and when he looked up, his face was full of tears.

Gu Liwu is familiar with Ye Sili's love and righteousness, and he must be at ease.

"The terrain of Liangcheng is critical, you must be more cautious when stationed in Liangcheng, although Duan Jiang is savage, he can still be trusted."

Gu Li said with concern.

Bai Yi stepped forward and handed over a letter, Qing Luo was puzzled, and Gu Liwu added:

"Most of the things that need to be paid attention to in governing a good city are reminded above, but the people are flesh and blood, they are living people, and you need to be flexible. Moreover, although Duan Jiang was born as a mountain bandit, he knew everything about Liangcheng, and if he had an undecided decision, he could discuss it. Finally, if it's really tricky, always contact us."

"yes, if you miss Kyoto, I'll go back and have a look." Ye Sili hurriedly added.

When she returned to Beijing this time, she didn't know when she would be able to come to Liangcheng again.

Qingluo held the thick letter paper tightly until her knuckles turned white and refused to let go.

Seeing this, Ye Sili couldn't hold back any longer, trotted forward and hugged Qingluo, crying: "Your body has just been raised, and now you are alone in Liangcheng, you must take care of yourself. I'll write to you often, and if you have the chance, you'll have to go back often, will you?"

She still remembers the first time she saw Qingluo, Qingluo was covered in injuries and almost died.

Now I finally have a better body, but I have to stay alone in a remote place.

Kyoto to Liangcheng, the road is difficult, they have all come over, but now they can't go back together.

Qingluo felt the temperature of the person in her arms, her hands hung down at her sides, and she stiffly pestled in place and did not dare to move.

"Don't worry, the county lord, I will do my best to govern the good city, and I will ...... Take care of yourself."

After Gu Liwu helped Ye Sili into the carriage, Duchun, Bai Yi, and Lian Xia said goodbye to Qingluo one after another, all of them wet their eyes and reluctantly.

In the eighteenth year of Xining, on August 28, the lord of Le'an and the general of Huaihua pacified the rebellion of Liangcheng, and on September 9, Emperor Zhou Yuan issued an order to appoint Qingluo as the governor of Liangcheng, and he was separated from slavery and included in the official position.

Ye Sili saw Mu Jiufeng guarding the city gate from a distance, and excitedly leaned half of his body out of the carriage and waved his hand to Mu Jiufeng.

Gu Liwu dragged her to the carriage, but he also controlled his strength and did not hit her.

Finally arrived at the city gate, Ye Sili immediately jumped out of the car, and Mu Jiufeng naturally stretched out his arms to catch Ye Sili who ran over.

"Nine winds, I can see you, I miss you." Ye Sili let go of Mu Jiufeng's embrace, jumped up and down happily, and the two began to chat non-stop.

"Didn't you say in your letter that you would leave on the 28th of last month? Why did you arrive today? It caused me to wait a lot, and my neck grew a lot." Mu Jiufeng complained, putting one hand on the shoulder of Gu Li, who had just walked over.

Ye Sili said happily: "The official road we came back to walk, Jiufeng, I told you, I met a lot of interesting things along the way, Ah Wei also caught fish for me, and ah......

As soon as the conversation box was opened, he couldn't hold it back, but fortunately, Mu Jiufeng didn't feel bored, but listened to it with relish.

Although this journey is a long journey, Gu Liwu took care of her very well, traveled all the way, and they would participate together when they met interesting local customs, so the return trip was not too tiring.

Mu Jiufeng held a reception banquet for him, which was set up in Zuiyun Tower.

After Ye Sili and Gu Liwei returned to the house to bathe and change their clothes for a while, the group went to Zuiyun Tower for a banquet.

The little guy stepped forward to lead the way, and gently pushed the door, and Ye Sili's eyes lit up.

"Xiao Ling, Ah Yu, you are also here!"

Xiao Ling, who had been waiting early, also immediately got up and ran towards her at this moment, and the two bumped into each other, but fortunately, Gu Liwu reached out to support Ye Sili behind him, so that the two of them would not rush over.

"After going out for so long and not writing a letter back, Jiufeng and I are going to be worried about death, let me see if I am hurt." Xiao Ling pulled Ye Sili, and the two held hands and entered the house.

The remaining three were already used to it, and they looked at each other and shrugged, looking helpless.

The five of them sat down, and the three of them pestered Gu Liwu and Ye Sili, asking to tell more interesting stories along the way, Ye Sili was naturally very happy, although Gu Liwu didn't want to deal with it, but he couldn't stand Mu Jiufeng's dead skin.

The table was full of meals one after another, and after a long time of not eating the dishes of Zuiyunlou, Ye Sili was already drooling.

Mu Jiufeng pointed to a dish in front of Ye Sili and introduced, "This is a new dish, you are very lucky, just in time, try it."

"Then you're welcome, I miss the food in Zuiyun Mansion too much." Ye Sili picked up the chopsticks, and before he could touch the new dish, he saw the door of the private room being pushed open.

The four of them all looked at each other, only to see Xiao Feng walking in.

Purple clothes and black hair, beautiful face.

I have to say that the genes of the imperial family are indeed excellent, whether it is Xiao Feng, Xiao Yu or Xiao Ling, they are all outstanding in terms of appearance and figure.

But......

Ye Sili looked at the uninvited guest in front of him, and always felt that he was a little weird.

What's so strange......

Suddenly, Ye Sili's body shrank back slightly, and leaned in the direction of Gu Li's worries.

Xiao Feng's outfit today, coupled with the gentle look that shouldn't appear on his face, is actually a little ...... Affinity?

Gu Liwu noticed Ye Sili's reaction, and took the lead in laughing, "The second prince is also here to attend the reception banquet between me and Ah Li?"

Obviously, it was impossible for Mu Jiufeng to invite Xiao Feng, which was tantamount to saying that he was uninvited.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng didn't care, and walked straight towards them with a standard smile on his face, "I heard that you and Sister Si Li have returned to Beijing for meritorious service, so I hurriedly finished handling the affairs in hand and rushed here, fortunately, I didn't miss your reception banquet."

Xiao Feng found a seat and sat down, raised his hand and patted it a few times, and then an entourage came into the house with a gold-inlaid nanmu box.

"This is a congratulatory gift for the two of you, don't dislike it."

Ye Sili glanced at the items in the wooden box, was slightly surprised, and said with a smile: "The second prince is arrogant, and he has taken out the most precious purple gold streamer bottle of the former dynasty Empress Gongsun."

Most of the things of the royal family of the previous dynasty were sealed in the treasury, especially this purple gold streamer bottle, which was extremely valuable and high-status, and countless eyes were staring at it.

However, this treasure was in the fourth year of Xining, that is, the year when Xiao Yu was suddenly favored, Emperor Zhou Yuan rewarded Xiao Feng with a birthday gift, which made the officials even more confused.

Since then, the factions in the DPRK and China have been divided into two factions with the second prince Xiao Feng and the fourth prince Xiao Yu respectively.

Ye Sili, Gu Liwei and Mu Jiufeng have always been close to Xiao Yu and Xiao Ling, but over the years, Prince Yu and Ning Anhou have always kept to themselves, and they have avoided the factions in the DPRK and China, and the hundred officials have never taken it to heart, they just feel that it is a child's shallow friendship.

Xiao Yu has always lived a leisurely life with Xiao Ling, so Xiao Feng didn't really take him to heart, but over the years, Emperor Zhou Yuan has been unwilling to set up a prince, and the position of crown prince has been vacant for a long time, and hundreds of officials have different opinions.

Xiao Feng can't bear it now, just because Xiao Yu's crown year is approaching.

Ye Sili took his gaze away from the purple gold streamer bottle and politely refused, "The second prince's kindness is happy to be accepted,

However, this purple gold streamer bottle is too valuable, and Le An is afraid that he can't afford it."

Xiao Feng smiled lightly, and his gaze swept lightly over Xiao Yu, who was silent on the side, "Fourth brother, what do you think of this purple gold streamer bottle?"

The air pressure in the room plummeted, but this uninvited guest smiled lazily, his eyes were deep, and he was invisibly frightened that people did not dare to move.

I saw Xiao Yu smiling lightly, raising his eyes to look at the delicate and elegant purple gold streamer bottle, looking at it carefully for a long time, and said seriously: "The birthday gift that my father gave to my second brother will never be bad."

Xiao Feng nodded with satisfaction, and Gu Li took the opportunity to say, "As the saying goes, treasures are worthy of nobles, how precious the purple gold streamer bottle is, not to mention that it is a birthday gift from the Holy Lord to the second prince, how can we win people's favor?"

Sending a purple gold streamer bottle in front of Xiao Yu, Xiao Feng's move clearly tested Xiao Yu's attitude, and even more so to test the attitude of Duke Yu's mansion.

"I kindly came to the banquet to give gifts, if I don't accept this gift, wouldn't I be very faceless?" Xiao Feng's face was not smiling, and he hung up shallowly, but he was indifferent.

He originally wanted to go to Liangcheng with Gu Li's worries, and only the prince Yu who ignored the government and the little county lord who didn't understand political affairs were left in the capital, once Ye Sili mobilized the Ye family army to Liangcheng, he was sure to charge the Yugong Mansion with great disrespect, and then he would come forward to rescue the Yugong Mansion from fire and water, and when Gu Liwu came back from suppressing the bandits, the entire Yugong Mansion would have already become his wings.

Who knew that the news he received was that Ye Sili rushed to Liangcheng with only three entourage, and then it was rumored that the Ye family army suddenly appeared in Liangcheng, and he was about to go to the court to sue the Yu Mansion for hiding private soldiers, but unexpectedly, the prince Yu arrived at the main hall one step earlier and was playing a request to the saint to increase the salary and subsidy of the Ye family army in remote areas.

Although he was angry, this showed that the strength of the Yugong Mansion should not be underestimated, if he was taken under his command, how could Xiao Yu be an opponent?

"The second prince is kind enough to give gifts, how can we live up to the reason?"

Seeing Ye Sili loosen his mouth, Xiao Feng's expression was slightly surprised, and he was about to order his entourage to send the congratulatory gift, but he heard her continue: "But since this gift is for me and Ah Wei, then Le'an really has a favorite thing, I wonder if the second prince is willing to cut his love?"
