Li Muchen was the first to react, forced to calm down, and said: "I've seen my father" Li Linfu was displeased, and asked: "Why are you looking here and looking around, what are you going to do?" Li Muchen said: "Just because my father's birthday is approaching, my daughter vows to do something, a little filial piety, these days I think about it, only this 'pure heart house' in the house is where my father is always located, so today I specially found someone from the silk village to measure it, and the tables and chairs in the study are covered with brocade face." ”

In fact, Li Muchen's words were not false, she originally had this intention, so she would send Lanxiang out of the house today. The difference is just that the satin village guy has been replaced by Ye Suiyun. Li Linfu knew his daughter's character, and the situation was the same in previous years, so he naturally didn't doubt it anymore, and said warmly: "Chen'er has a heart, but this year is different from the past, the emperor's fiftieth birthday is imminent, and this year's birthday for my father is just that." After that, he turned his head to look at Ye Suiyun on the side, and asked, "Which cloth shop are you from?" While asking, he kept looking up and down, Li Linfu never dreamed that the person in front of him was the person who had almost completely destroyed the external force that he had painstakingly cultivated for more than 20 years.

Ye Suiyun pretended to be frightened and said, "The small one is the red sleeve Xuan silk shop." "Secretly glad that the name was mentioned in Lanxiang.

Li Linfu nodded and said, "I went to the concierge to receive the reward, and I went back to know that the Prime Minister would not buy silk this year." Ye Suiyun saluted: "Yes." Slowly retreated. I only heard Li Linfu say to his daughter: "Don't bring the living here in the future, here are all books treasured by my father, how can I lose them." Li Muchen replied: "Chen'er understands." ”

Ye Suiyun went out of the door, but he would not obediently leave, turned around again, and lay down on the crack of the door to look. I saw Li Linfu pick up the value record on the desk, along with some other books, and put them into an iron cabinet embedded in the wall, and when he closed the iron leaf, he saw that the keyhole was a strange font. Ye Suiyun was still waiting to see it again, but he heard a few servants outside the courtyard talking and laughing and walking towards this side, he didn't dare to delay, for fear of arousing suspicion, so he quickly dressed up and strode out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Before turning to the Zhaofu Temple not far from the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ye Suiyun waited anxiously. Sure enough, after a while, Lan Xiang also came to the temple gate. Ye Suiyun hurriedly asked, "How?" Lan Xiang shook her head and said, "No, the young lady said that the things were locked in the secret cabinet by the master, and the key was kept by the master himself, so he couldn't get it anyway." Ye Suiyun said with a hammer: "What can I do?" Lan Xiang said: "I can't say it, I have to go back quickly, so as not to arouse suspicion." Miss asked me to tell you that she will try to get the key as best she can, but she is afraid that it will be too late. ”

Ye Suiyun knew that Li Muchen's guess was right, according to Xiaoxiao, Li Linfu's participation in the impeachment of the prince was probably a matter of a day or two, and the prince was more than lucky this time. I thought that even if I had the ability to sneak into the Prime Minister's Mansion, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to open the secret cabinet, and when I thought of the appearance of the lock, I knew that it would be extremely difficult to open it without asking.

Seeing Lan Xiang leave in a hurry, Ye Suiyun didn't know what to do, but he was unwilling to leave, and when he was wandering, he suddenly felt someone pat him on the shoulder, he was taken aback, and secretly wondered how he didn't notice it. After looking back at the visitor, I couldn't help but be surprised and delighted.

Two days later, in Yonghe Fang, several young people gathered together with great interest to talk about something, only to hear Leng Xiaoxiao: "It's a pity that you didn't see how wonderful the expression on Li Linfu's face was when I took out the value book and presented it to the emperor." It's hard for him to come up early, so he talked about the Shangyuan Festival and talked about it generously. It makes people laugh when they think about it. Tang Xiyao, Ninth Sister, and Ye Suiyun on the side laughed.

Ye Suiyun said: "He also said that as long as he keeps the key, it will be foolproof, but he never thought that there is a kind of person in this world who wants to open his secret cabinet and does not need a key." ”

Tang Xiyao asked, "Brother Ye, I really want to thank this friend of yours, what about her?" Leng Xiaoxiao also said: "Yes, accept her affection, I will definitely thank her in person on behalf of Tiance Mansion and the prince." ”

Ye Suiyun smiled embarrassedly and said, "She has something important to do, and she has already left Chang'an." Everyone couldn't help but be a little disappointed when they heard this. The ninth sister snorted and said, "This person is really weird... Tang Xiyao interrupted: "Ninth sister." Motioned for her not to continue.

Leng Xiaoxiao nodded and said: "Actually, I have heard of this woman for a long time, the people in the rivers and lakes call her 'jade-faced flying fox', and she is a flying thief who acts both right and evil. Such people were originally reluctant to have more contact with others, and we don't have to worry too much, after all, they helped us this time. It's just that I really didn't expect you, Brother Ye, to know her. ”

Before Ye Suiyun could answer, Tang Xiyao asked, "Just listening to this name, this sister must be very beautiful, right?" Ye Suiyun's heart was beating wildly, looking at the past, only to see Tang Xiyao looking at him with a smile, he didn't know why he was so nervous, and said, "Don't guess." I went out for a walk. After speaking, he fled out of Yonghefang. Leng Xiaoxiao hurriedly said: "Don't forget to send my uncle and them outside the Anhua Gate in the morning." Ye Suiyun responded, and the person was gone.

When he came to the street, Ye Suiyun's mood finally calmed down. secretly muttered what was wrong with him, and he didn't do anything to be sorry for people, why he didn't dare to face Tang Xiyao's eyes. Just like two days ago, when facing the state of mind when facing the substitute giving.

Thinking back to that scene, Dai Shi Shen unknowingly patted Ye Suiyun on the shoulder, which really startled him. Dai Shi said: "This girl has been following you for a few days, and I will see you jumping up and down for a while to enter the palace, and for a while to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion, and you will be busy." Ye Suiyun was pleasantly surprised, explained the problems in front of him, and finally said: "God really sent you, and I need your help now." ”

Dai Shi stroked his hair and said: "Hmph, this girl naturally knows that you have a request for me right now, so she showed up, otherwise, hum." Speaking of this, he sighed lightly and said, "I originally planned to leave after seeing that your cowherd baby was okay." ”

Ye Suiyun asked, "Where are you going?" Dai Shi's eyes were a little red, and he said, "Go find Master." Ye Suiyun asked, "Do you know the whereabouts of Brother Wei?" ”

Dai Shi shook his head and said: "Master has been missing for more than a year, although I have traced it in many ways, but I can't say it well, but according to the latest clues, it is very likely to be related to the Cardinal Sect." Ye Suiyun said: "You want to go to the Cardinal Sect?" That's too dangerous. ”

Dai Shi looked at the sky and said leisurely: "What's the danger, anyway, I've been alone since I was a child, no one thought about me when I was born, and if I die, I have nothing to do with others." ”

Hearing her say such self-defeating words, Ye Suiyun was touched, and couldn't help but feel guilty, and said, "What are you talking about, how can no one care about you, I 。。。。。 I will go with you. ”

Dai Shi's eyes lit up, if he was accompanied by Ye Suiyun, even if he really met Assasin, what was he afraid of, and asked, "Really?" ”

Ye Suiyun patted his chest and said: "Naturally, take it seriously, how can Brother Wei sit idly by and watch my fateful friendship." Not to mention ... What's more, how can I be in danger with you alone. Dai Shi said: "It turns out that it is still because... That's it. She snapped her fingers and said, "Tomorrow morning, I'll put things in front of your window." Then he turned and left.

Ye Suiyun hurriedly said: "You... ”

Dai Shi stopped, but didn't turn around, and asked, "That second miss from the Tang Sect。。。。。 You're a good girl, you guys... Ye Suiyun knew what she was asking, and he had mixed feelings in his heart, hesitated for a moment, and nodded: "I have a white head appointment with her." ”

Dai Shi turned his head, stared at Ye Suiyun, smiled, and said, "You cow baby, I don't know where to cultivate the blessing." "I left without looking back.

In the early morning of the second day, after Ye Suiyun got up, he saw the blue value record quietly placed in front of the pane, and there was no trace of Dai Shi since then. Ye Suiyun recalled the last look in Dai Shi's eyes, which was mixed with something indescribable, and he was afraid that he would not be able to forget it in his life.

Between the ups and downs of thought, a shout of selling vegetables came, Ye Suiyun came back to his senses, and then he realized that he had been idle all the way, and unconsciously came to the door of the Xishi Honglu Temple Leveling Office. Thinking that Du Fu was serving here, he couldn't help but perk up and strode in.

Du Fu, who was on an errand, was also quite surprised to see Ye Suiyun, but when he heard that there was wine, he was naturally overjoyed, explained a few words to others, and took Ye Suiyun to a restaurant called 'Hibiscus Drunk' by the Qujiang Pond.

The two sat down, and Du Fu arched his hand and asked, "Why is Brother Ye so interested today, please drink next?" ”

Ye Suiyun also arched his hand and said: "Last time, thanks to Brother Du's righteous hand, he rescued the Gaochang man Tuji, which really helped the younger brother a lot, and I remembered that I haven't had a chance to thank you yet." ”

Du Fu laughed and said, "Okay, you and I hit it off at first sight a few years ago, but unfortunately we never got together, and today we don't get drunk and don't return." Ye Suiyun clapped his hands and said, "Okay, the little brother sacrificed his life to accompany the gentleman." ”

The wine and food were all together, and the two drank happily and talked and laughed. Speaking of the plague in Tiandu Town back then, it was like a lifetime away. Du Fu said: "I, Du Zimei, am a cold Confucian, except for a shabby body. But it's a weird temper, no matter if you are powerful or rich, you really can't look down on it. He raised his head and drank the wine glass in his hand, and said, "But the first time I saw you, Brother Ye, I knew that you were a good man who was in a hurry." Come, I'll toast you. Ye Suiyun waved his hand and said, "Brother Du has won the award." ”

Du Fu shook his head and said: "It's not a compliment, let me tell you, a person, even if he can disguise on the surface, his eyes will not deceive." You are a good person, Du Zimei is very happy to have made you a friend. Ye Suiyun was moved, and he also took a sip of the wine.

Du Fu's face was slightly gloomy and he continued: "But this time I will meet Brother Ye Chang'an again, with all due respect, you are a little different from the last time." Ye Suiyun sighed and asked, "What's the difference?" ”

Du Fu said: "When you were in Tiandu Town, you were full of clear and childish energy, but now it has only been two years, although you are still heroic, there seems to be a lot of worries and worries between your eyebrows. There seem to be great doubts and worries hidden in the heart, but why? ”

Ye Suiyun was stunned for a long time, all kinds of things that have happened in the past two years are constantly rolling in his mind like a picture scroll, the sadness, blood and tears in it, and the fate hanging by a thread can not be said clearly in one or two sentences, only sighed: "What Brother Du said is good, but it is difficult to say." With that, he poured down the cup in his hand again.

At this time, after three rounds of drinking, Du Fu came to be interested and said: "Since you and I are friends, there is nothing to do left and right anyway, Brother Ye has something to worry about, why not talk about it and listen to it." If there is something you can't figure out, maybe I can give you an idea to solve your doubts a little. ”

If it was usual, Ye Suiyun would have laughed and wouldn't say much, but at this time, maybe he had drunk two more glasses, and the wine was up, or Du Fu in front of him was indeed a friend who reassured him, or he really held back too long in his heart, and couldn't help but vomit quickly, nodded and said: "Okay, speaking of which, everything has to start with a little girl." Du Fu repeated: "Little girl? ”

Ye Suiyun nodded and said, "Yes, if it weren't for her, maybe everything would not have happened." The fate of the next may be completely different. Du Fu opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything, but his expression was more focused.

Ye Suiyun stared out the window blankly, and said after a while: "Seven years ago, I was still a child herding cattle in the countryside, and I lived with my grandmother in Xiaozheng Village on the shore of Xizi Lake. On that day, I was riding rhubarb to play by the lake, and I saw a large mansion in the distance bustling with people. I knew that it was the most powerful and wealthy Ye family in the vicinity. I was curious, so I quietly followed the crowd and blended in。。。。。。 ”

Ye Suiyun's thoughts drifted back to that day and began to talk endlessly. Regardless of whether Du Fu understands it or not, this statement goes from how to save people in the original Tibetan Sword Villa, to the Rilun Mountain City to help Yuan Mingya break the enemy, and how he got acquainted with Wei Qiwu, Xie Yunliu, Li Wusheng, Ye Zhiqing, Zhang Yuanyuan, Gong Ao and other first-class figures in the martial arts, and then talked about how Li Linfu and Yang Zhao used tricks to put themselves to death. All kinds of twists and turns are bizarre, and the line between life and death feels unreal when you say it. As for Li Linfu's plot to rebel, Ye Suiyun omitted to mention it, not because he was suspicious, but because he was afraid of bringing disaster to Du Fu.

At the end of his life, Ye Suiyun said that he was dedicated to goodness, but he was framed one after another, so that now he is wanted for a serious crime. Finally, when it comes to Tang Xiyao and Dai Shi's second daughter's feelings for him, he doesn't know what to do, he knows that he already has Tang Xiyao in his heart, but to say that he has really left Dai Shi clean behind, it is also self-deception, but what can be done about this kind of thing.

Du Fu was shocked and stunned when he heard this, and he said for a long time: "I finally know why you want to carry that iron mask." ”

Ye Suiyun shook his head with a wry smile, as if he wanted to shake out all the chaos and depression, he sighed, and said, "There are too many things for me to figure out, why things in the world are so weird and complicated." Am I doing everything right or wrong? ”

Du Fu accompanied him with a wry smile and said: "I'm very sorry, Brother Ye, Du Zimei can't answer your worries, and I'm afraid I can't help." Such a legendary experience as yours can not be discussed by ordinary people. He shook his head as he spoke, still in disbelief.

Ye Suiyun laughed and said, "What a legend, it's just a panic like a lost dog, fleeing in all directions." As he spoke, he took out the wooden flute from his waist and said, "Have a good conversation, and don't think about anything else, just let me play a song to toast." Then he walked to the window of the restaurant and looked out. At this moment, the sunset is obliquely shining, and the water surface of the slowly flowing Qujiang Pond is glowing with golden light. Ye Suiyun recalled the song played by Zhang Shuyuan in the mountain, meditated in his heart, and blew. The peaceful and melodious sound of the flute came out of the Furong Tower and slowly spread out on the surface of the river. For a while, everyone in the restaurant stopped to listen, and the street was quiet, only the sound of the flute echoed.

After the song was blown, people inside and outside the street applauded, Ye Suiyun hugged his fists in greeting, and everyone was busy again. Ye Suiyun returned to his seat, Du Fu stretched out his thumb and said, "Brother Ye is wonderful, it's really a good song." ”

Ye Suiyun said: "This song was learned from a friend who gave the flute. ”

Du Fu commented: "Although the tune is slow, it is melodious, and it is large to mid, and it contains the spirit of Haoran in the middle of the period, but sometimes it will become slow and low, as if there is a hint of confusion." Ye Suiyun raised his eyebrows and asked, "Confused?" ”

Du Fu didn't answer and asked: "After listening to Brother Ye's story, you have done good and righteous deeds over the years, but you have suffered many dangers, so that you have come all the way to today's point, dare to ask, have you ever regretted your choice?" ”

Ye Suiyun was stunned, his face showed a confused look, his brows couldn't help frowning, and he repeated: "Regret." ”

Du Fu said: "Yes, have you ever thought about what would have happened if you couldn't help but save that little girl back then?" ”

Ye Suiyun's gaze regained firmness, shook his head and said, "No, I don't regret it." Brother Du's words, the younger brother understands. Everything I did since the beginning was a matter of nature, and even if it didn't turn out to be as good as I wanted, it was my inevitable choice, and I don't blame anyone. ”

Ye Suiyun raised the wine jug and filled the wine glass, thought about it and said, "It's just that the road ahead is vast, and I don't know what else awaits me." It's a pity that the power of one person is always too small, and it is difficult to withstand the constant calculations of others. The road was chosen by himself, and the matter has come to this point, Ye Suiyun should not let it go, and he must go on well. Thank you Brother Du for your doubts, do it. With that, he took a sip of the wine.

Du Fu laughed and said: "That's it, life is in the world, all kinds of complicated, how can everything be as you wish." If you want to live freely, as long as you have a good conscience, you will be at ease. He also took the wine glass and drank it, wiped his mouth and said, "Don't be anxious, I believe that everything will pass." ”

Ye Suiyun said with a smile: "Actually, the little brother only hopes that there will be less fighting, killing and killing in this world, and competing for fame and profit." It would be nice for everyone to be able to live their own lives with their loved ones. Hehe, with such knowledge, I'm afraid that Brother Du will laugh off his big teeth. Today's reality is that you and I can drink so happily, which is a rare happiness for the younger brother in these years. ”

Du Fu laughed heartily, patted his head, and shouted urgently: "Shopkeeper, get paper and ink." The handyman in the restaurant heard the greeting, did not dare to slack off, and spread out the pen and ink in the study.

Du Fu picked up Changhao and said: "Brother Ye is a person with a common mind, you just gave me a song, and the foolish brother has nothing to repay, so he improvised a word, please laugh." After that, he wrote on Bai Juan:

The mighty river rises and clouds, and the smiling and lying green walks on the song. Don't linger for a hundred years, just wait for leisure, and the clear flute is broken by a song.

The long road is far away and thousands of mountains, and the ancient and modern reincarnations are safe for several generations. How can a dollar be exchanged for sake, and life is like a dream.
