Chapter 1 Return to Beijing

In the blink of an eye, it was the middle of July, and the sun rose in the early morning, and the golden morning light sprinkled on the Tianshui Bridge.

In the mansion deep in the alley of the Pei family, the maids who got up early were busy with their work, and they all gathered in the verandah, chatting and chatting:

"It's true, I heard what Chen Darttou said personally, the young master of the night ran to Junshantai in Zezhou, and split half of the lake in half with one knife, and that old sword leader flew out more than three miles away......"

"Sanli?"

"That's not it, Young Master Night rode away in the wind after the fight, and he still held a great beauty in his arms......

"Who's hugging? It can't be Sanniang, right? ”

"Sister Xiuhe said no, Sanniang is so subtle, she can let the young master of the night hold it in public, I'm afraid that the sun will come out in the west......"

……

The gossip words came into the elegant environment of the West House, and the original thunder could not move the thunder to practice boxing by the lake every day, and there was a rare absence.

In the boudoir where the young lady lived in the west house, the doors and windows were closed.

Outside, there was a table with a soft blanket and neatly arranged with white jade finches; On the small desk, there are copied homework and pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

The inner room is separated by a beaded curtain, a pale blue skirt is placed on the screen, a saber in her early three feet is placed on the dressing table, and there are rouge gouache, hairpin boxes, and small objects such as wooden donkeys and jasper turtles for birds.

Between the show beds, Zheyunli, who was wearing white pajamas, was lying on the pillow in a large shape, with a loose neckline showing a touch of whiteness, and his aura face was full of sullenness, and he turned over and sighed from time to time:

"Alas......"

In a few days, Zhi Yunli will be sixteen years old, and she has completely changed from a little girl to a serious woman.

According to the practice of the rivers and lakes, at the age of sixteen, you can find a husband and marry someone, and you can go out alone to explore the rivers and lakes.

On such an important day, the master was thousands of miles away in Nanxiao Mountain, and the master ran away with the frightened cousin, and she didn't know when she would come back, and she didn't even have the delicious and lazy birds.

Zhi Yunli hasn't slept well in the past few days, and woke up early today, tossing and turning in bed and thinking about the future arrangements.

It's all big girls, so I shouldn't force her to copy books and spank her anymore......

If you are not a little girl, you have to have big ambitions, as a swordsman, your ambition is naturally to compete for the sword leader, I don't know if it counts if you get drunk and beat your cousin......

has been thinking about it for a long time, and it has been three poles in the day.

Maybe he was afraid of the sun and didn't get up yet, he was laughed at by the maid of the Pei family, Zhe Yunli got up slowly, changed into a skirt after washing, dressed up as a Jiaojiao lady, and went out to the street alone.

The weather is cool in autumn, and there are many people on the streets of the capital.

After wandering aimlessly for a long time, I had a few more bags of snacks in my hand, and I returned to Dyeing Street unconsciously.

The renovation work of Dyefang Street is basically over, and now the street has a new look, the shops on both sides are being renovated, and a few of them are moving fast and have begun to open, and there are more cars and pedestrians on the streets that have been inaccessible in previous years.

In the small courtyard of Shuanggui Lane, a lot of bonsai have been planted, and they haven't moved yet, so these things have naturally not been removed, Luo Ning explained before leaving, and asked her to come over from time to time, watering or something.

Zhe Yunli swallowed melon seeds, and after saying hello to the Pei family steward on the street, he walked towards Shuanggui Lane, still thinking about the arrangements for growing up in his mind.

As a result, as soon as he turned into the alley, he suddenly found that there was a sneaky figure wandering outside the small courtyard deep in the alley.

Zhe Yunli suddenly came back to his senses and looked carefully, but saw a figure outside the courtyard, a girl dressed as a maid, who was looking inside the courtyard wall, her legs hanging in the air and falling on the wall.

??

Zhi Yunli was stunned for a moment, his eyes were first surprised, then panicked, and he looked left and right.

The maid in the alley, Yu Guang found the fragrant folded cloud glass, slightly stunned, at first did not recognize it, after careful identification, it fell from the wall, and said with a face full of surprise:

"Miss, Miss......"

Zhi Yunli hurriedly raised his hand, signaling the other party not to be surprised, and walked quickly to him, looking left and right:

"Ping'er, why are you here? Where is Master? ”

Ping'er is the maid of the leader of the Pingtian Sect, and she is responsible for the diet and daily life of the sect leader on weekdays, because she is the same age as Zhe Yunli, and the relationship is quite close.

I haven't seen her for nearly half a year, Ping'er is very excited, and she took Zheyunli's hand and said:

"The sect leader didn't come. Originally, I asked someone to send a letter to my wife, but I was afraid that the young lady would not be able to eat and dress well, so I asked for my life to come over......"

When Zhi Yunli heard this, she couldn't help but get nervous:

"Master told us to go back to Nanxiao Mountain?"

Ping'er nodded: "Madame is not here, and the master has to take care of all the big and small things, and it's been almost half a year." It would have been nice if Madame had been busy with business, but Madame hadn't done anything......"

Zhe Yunli took Ping'er back to the courtyard and frowned slightly:

"Why didn't you do anything? My sister and I rescued Qiu Daxia......"

"That's right, if you rescue you, you should go back, what are you doing in the capital?"

"Hmm...... Shi Niang still has important things to do, so she will go back when she finishes them. ”

"The sect leader said that if you can't do it, forget it."

Ping'er sat on the small bench and said solemnly:

"How risky is it to sneak into the palace, Mrs. Martial Arts is mediocre, and the news is not in place. The new sword leader is a person from the imperial court, such a powerful master, his wife has been in the capital for half a year, and he didn't even mention a word......"

“……”

Zhi Yunli blinked, because these major matters were decided by Shi Niang, and she didn't want to talk nonsense, so she responded:

"The master has her own measure, and the matter of entering the palace is nine out of ten, you can go back and reply to the master like this, and we will go back when the matter is done."

Ping'er shook her head: "This is not good. A few days ago, the sect leader said that Madame can't even figure out the masters of the imperial court, and it is easy to go wrong when staying in the capital, so let me call you back; If there is a way to do the right thing, let me report the progress in a timely manner......"

Report on progress??

Zhe Yunli sat up a little straighter, a little unhappy:

"Master asked you to supervise me and my wife?"

Ping'er hurriedly shook her head: "It's not a supervision, it's just to help run errands and take care of food and daily life, if Miss or Mrs. dislikes it, I'll go back, and the sect leader can come over in person." ”

Master come here?

Zhi Yunli felt that when the master came over, her happy days of walking during the day and playing mahjong at night would be completely over, so she could only bite the bullet and say after thinking about it:

"How could I be disgusted, you came just in time, I haven't finished copying the book yet......"

"The sect leader said, I am not allowed to help you copy the book, I have to check it on behalf of the sect leader every day, if you are disobedient, the sect leader will send someone to pick up the young lady back."

Zheyunli opened her mouth, and although she didn't speak, she felt that the whole world had turned gray and white......

——

At night, the lower reaches of the Qingjiang River.

A fleet of several huge ships sailed smoothly on the river.

On the second floor of the ship's building, the room near the stern was lit up, and the night terror hall hung a saber at the waist, standing in the window with his hands in his hands, looking at the waves and rivers behind, with a little helplessness in his eyes.

If the three girls have no milk to eat, then living with five girls and more than a dozen palace maids is basically equivalent to confinement.

The boathouse is occupied by all the female dependents, and the rooms on the second floor are the dormitories of the accompanying palace maids, and the upstairs is the queen mother and the stupid bedroom, and the well-informed Xuanji real person also lives on it.

Outside the shipbuilding, there are also forbidden soldiers and black masters in charge of security, not to mention the night terror hall pulling Ning Er and Sanniang to hurry day after day, it is not even convenient to go out and move around, these days are basically staying at home, lying in bed to recuperate.

Ning Er and Sanniang live next door, and they will come over to take medicine during the day, and they will let him kiss and pinch it on the way, and they dare not stay in the room at night.

As for the three women upstairs, they were stupid and afraid that the master would misunderstand, and only when the doctor girl came to the pulse, did they follow her to visit; And Xuanji Zhenren was afraid that the Queen Mother would misunderstand, so she didn't come over at all after drinking a lot of wine all day long; As for the Queen Mother, needless to say, there is no reason to meet at all.

Because it was too boring to stay in the room, even Bird Bird was not happy to accompany him, and ran upstairs to eat and drink all day long, basically never coming down.

The boat departed from the Wuxi Canal and sailed upriver for several days, and had arrived near the Jiang'an Wharf, less than ten miles away from the Guanjia Wharf outside the capital.

The fleet was full of forbidden troops, and also escorted Wu Wang, Yao Wenzhong, Bai Siming and other bandit leaders, and when they arrived at the official wharf, thousands of people entered the city, I am afraid there are still a lot of things.

Seeing that the official ship behind him was already packing up and preparing to disembark, Night Terror turned around and walked out of the room.

In the next room, Ning Er and Sanniang were also packing up their things, although the door was closed, with the perception of night terrors, they could still hear whispers:

"It's counted, I'm afraid I'm suffocated......"

"I'm going back to accompany Yunli. Didn't you say last time that women aren't bad to toss? He's been recuperating for so long, you just happened to try the depth ...... alone"

"You can't hold it lightly, you rubbed my arm last night, and you can't hold it back in the middle of the night, so you run over to join in the fun......"

"Are you the same as you? I wish I could be clean for a few days......"

"You just pretend......"

……

Night Terror listened for a moment, but without interrupting, he went down the stairs to the third floor.

This ship is a treasure ship used by the empress to travel, and the third floor is quite large, but there are not many rooms, only a study bedroom and an outer hall with a view.

is about to return to the palace as a canary, the Queen Mother must be reluctant, standing on the viewing terrace, looking at the scenery on both sides of the river.

Xuanji Zhenren drank too much again without accident, standing behind her back and hugging the queen mother's waist, with her chin on her shoulder, and she didn't know what she was doing, but when she found that the night terror hall was coming up, she looked back and turned her eyes back.

In the study, the door was open, and Dongfang Liren was sitting in front of the bookcase, writing something on the paper with his back straight, looking like he was reading and thinking about national affairs, and his expression was extremely focused.

Night Terror wanted to knock on the door, but after a little thought, he didn't make a sound, relying on his strong martial arts, he sneaked into the study silently, and quietly touched the side of the desk.

Looking up, you can see that there is a spread out "Tears of a Chivalrous Woman" in Clumsy Hand, which is the plot of the heroine being injured and healed by a thief.

The next few chapters of paper are drawn with pictures, and the upper part is the environment described in the book, with flowers and trees carefully outlined, without the slightest sloppiness; The image of a chivalrous woman and a thief is even more portrayed.

Although I draw on paper, I can feel the abundance of the watermelon that is far beyond that of an ordinary woman through the undulations of the lines, and the sense of power that my hand holds on it......

Seeing this, Night Terror Hall was amazed in his heart, just like Dongfang Liren saw him practicing martial arts. carefully looked at the shameless thief in the book, and found that he was extremely handsome, which can be described as a bone heavy god cold heavenly temple vessel......

Night Terror blinked, flattered in his heart, he didn't expect Stupid to be so sincere, and he actually drew it according to his mold.

Looking at the humiliated chivalrous woman again, although she tried her best to draw it differently, the heroic spirit between her eyebrows still had a sense of déjà vu......

“……”

Night Terror blinked, held back for a long time, and only one sentence came out of his heart: No wonder the watermelon painting is so big......

Because he was afraid of being disturbed, the Night Terror Hall didn't make a sound, just stood not far away and watched quietly.

Dongfang Liren is engrossed in painting, and after painting a picture, he still writes the plot of the book on the blank space below, which can be described as full of sincerity.

After finishing the words, Dongfang Li put down the pen and stretched his hand.

"Hmm~...... Well?! ”

As soon as Dongfang Liren's arm was raised, he found a man in black standing not far away.

Looking at each other, Dongfang Liren blinked, and then his face turned red, and he quickly blocked the paper on the table:

"Who let you in?"

Night Terror made the appearance that he hadn't seen anything, and motioned out the window:

"The boat will arrive soon, come up and ask about the arrangements, and when I saw that His Royal Highness was busy with business, I didn't bother."

Dongfang Liren felt that the Night Terror Hall must have been watching for a long time, and after glancing at the picture of the Spring Palace on the table, he put away the paper and said unhappily:

"You are a subordinate of this king, remember your identity. I wanted to draw you a picture album, but since you are so pampered and arrogant and don't know how to be polite, this thing ......"

Seeing that he was stupid and wanted to pick a child, the night terror hall hurriedly apologized:

"I know my mistake, I will definitely say hello when I enter the door in the future."

Dongfang Liren snorted lightly, because it was originally painted for the Night Terror Hall, but he didn't pursue it too much, and said instead:

"I have to hand over King Wu and other thieves to the Criminal Department for custody, I'm afraid it will be busy for most of the night. If you are injured, you don't have to follow, go back and rest early. How are you hurting? ”

"After so many days of recuperation, it's almost over, and I'll go to the black government on time tomorrow morning to report."

"Don't be in such a hurry, from the murder case on Zhuji Street to now, you should relax for a few days, aren't you going to move to a new house, and you will come to Yamen when you are done. This king is going to ask you for a reward, and with this merit, it shouldn't be difficult to ask for a real lord. ”

Night Terror Hall didn't care about these things, and said with a smile:

"Your Highness looks at the arrangement, then I'll leave first."

"Hmm."

Dongfang Liren bowed slightly, began to sort out the paper he had drawn, and found that Night Terror Hall walked a few steps and turned back, frowning and saying:

"Anything else?"

"Can these paintings be ......?"

"Nope."

Dongfang has been working for so many days to draw these, in case she takes it to play with it in the night, loses it or gets dirty, and gets it on some strange things, she is afraid that she will vomit blood, so she made a non-negotiable appearance, waved her hand and said:

"I won't give it to you until the king finishes painting and binding."

Seeing this, the Night Terror Hall did not force it, and instructed:

"It's still important to get down to business, just draw these things slowly, I'm not in a hurry."

"Got it."
