"Maybe there are some." Yu Yu looked at Xie Lingze and smiled faintly, "But don't worry, my position has not changed." ”

"I didn't question what Miss Yu meant," Xie Lingze hurriedly explained, "Miss Yu saved me twice, and I don't know how to thank me." ”

"I promised to escort you to the capital, this is what I should do." Yu Wu didn't care about this, and she also wanted to see what the world was like now, and what kind of role the Xianmen who linked the court and the Xianmen was.

"I see." Xie Lingze lowered his eyes, his thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and there seemed to be a trace of loss hidden on his fair and handsome face.

Yu Yu didn't notice his strange mood at all, she tried her best to sit comfortably, then a slight vibration came, she paused, and looked in the direction of the window.

"It's Nanwu Cavalry."

There was a sound outside, Xie Lingze went out to check the situation first, and Yu Wu followed behind him.

What blocked them from going was a team of Nanwu horsemen, which was no different from the outfit of the group of men and horses that Yu Yu had seen in front of Ning Cheng earlier.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered, we will come to welcome Gongzi Xie into Beijing."

Prince? How did the prince find them? The route they planned should not have been told to others, could it be that Xie Lingze took the risk to send a message to the prince?

Yu Ling thought about it and cast her doubtful gaze on Xie Lingze, feeling Yu Yu's gaze, Xie Lingze also shook his head.

"Although I do things for the crown prince, I think that my importance to the prince should not be so important that His Royal Highness will discharge the southern martial arts to greet him."

As a special royal escort, there are very few people who can be personally greeted by Nanwu Cavalry with such an honor.

Yu Wu thought for a while, "It's not peaceful along the way, and there will be fewer incidents with them, let's go." ”

Perhaps with the escort of this overwhelming team, the journey was really much calmer, and when twilight was approaching, Yu Wu saw the magnificent gate of the capital.

In addition to the Nanwu cavalry, there were even patrols at the city gate to greet them.

"His Royal Highness the Prince's formation, is it a little too big?" Yu Wu looked at the guards at the door and said to Xie Lingze.

Xie Lingze thought for a moment, and his tone was uncertain, "Maybe. It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's order that had deep meaning. ”

"Listening to your tone, it seems that you are not familiar with this highness the crown prince?" Yu Wu raised her eyebrows, watching the carriage slowly drive into the city, the streets on both sides were almost unoccupied, and the originally prosperous capital was a little empty at the moment.

"As the girl said, in fact, I don't know much about this highness." Xie Lingze sighed, lowered the curtain, and lowered his voice, "It's just that except for the previous prince, His Royal Highness the crown prince's style of acting among all the princes is the most reliable one in the eyes of the next one." ”

"I see."

It's just that this highness is too careful in arranging, and even the residence has already been arranged, it is a small mansion, not only is the property complete, but even the servants who serve up and down have been arranged.

After entering the mansion, Yu Yu and Xie Lingze went to both sides separately, just as Yu Yu also felt tired and wanted to rest, Lan Zhi and Xie Lingze brought out the people were arranged to the other courtyard.

Entering the prepared room, she was greeted by the familiar fragrance in the Qingyun Gate, which made Yu Yu feel relaxed, and when she saw the soft bed, she couldn't bear the fatigue and got into the quilt.

At this time, in the private room upstairs of the famous jade in the capital, Ye Qingtian took the Fengtian secret treasure and looked at the imprint on it and thought about it, it was a flower that he had never seen.

In the middle is a round stamen. The surrounding petals are droplet-shaped, scattered and floating around the stamens.

What the hell is this?

He consulted all the illustrated books of plants and trees today, but he did not find a similar pattern, and he could not find a similar one among the thousands of species, which was really strange.

"Childe," a servant with a stack of books ran in from outside, "I found another batch of books from the janitor of the old mansion academy. ”

He spread all these books on the table, Ye Qingtian picked them up and flipped through the two pages, and said angrily and impatiently: "What kind of books are you looking for?" Mythology? Mountain ghosts talking? Afterlife? There are not enough scriptures to read the official history of Xianmen? Where can I find these wild roads? ”

"So, take the little one?" The servant only promised, bowed his head in fear, and didn't know what evil his master had, and he didn't even go to the platform of the famous girl Iris in the capital, but wanted to read here.

"But I finally got the iris's." The little servant still decided to mention that it was better to go to Yichun Lou than to suffer here.

Ye Qingtian's expression was shaken, the viewing position of the iris girl's platform was not easy to grab, and he also spent a lot of money to get it.

"Forget it, let them go on their own."

The little servant sighed hopelessly, "Take the little one away." ”

He said that he was going to take these books away, Ye Qingtian patted his hand impatiently, "Forget it, put it here, you go, you go." ”

As the door closed, Ye Qingtian impatiently picked it up and flipped through two pages, lying crookedly on the chair and flipping through it casually.

The old mansion academy mentioned by the servants was a place to store miscellaneous books when the library was not established, and there were many kinds of books in it, and there were many in the stream and those who did not.

I don't know when the rain was falling, the bluestone slab ground was glowing with cold light, the thin old man knelt in the rain, trembling and didn't dare to raise his head, and there were several black-clothed people standing on his face, holding long knives.

"You say, they've all been bought?"

"Yes, yes, just a quarter of an hour before you came, my books were bought by that person, it seems that it is a servant of a big family, I really don't know the rest, my lord is gracious, let me go, I still have a few little grandchildren waiting for me to feed me." The old man trembled and kowtowed on the ground, and he didn't dare to stop when he broke his head.

Fanyin sat in the carriage, her broken face covered by a black veil, and her eyes showed her true fierceness.

"Killed." She spat out two words coldly, the wheels of the carriage turned and went forward, and the man in black walked towards the person who couldn't stop trembling and kowtowing with a long knife, and the long knife lifted-

"Whew-"

In the darkness, a stone sliced through the rain curtain and knocked off the long knife in the man's hand, causing the man's wrist to tingle.

I saw a figure standing on the eaves under the moonlight.

"Who! Catch up! As soon as the two left, a man wearing a cloak and a hat threw a bag of money in front of the old man, "Don't be here, leave the capital with your family." ”

The old man kowtowed a few times and ran away with his money bag.

Twilight Mountain View raised her eyes to look at the dissipating phantom on the eaves, pulled the brim of her hat and walked forward.

It was late at night, and Yu's wife, who had gone to bed early, woke up, she stretched her body, and was about to drink some water, when she just walked to the window and suddenly heard a muffled noise.

"Who?!"

There was no response from outside, Yu Yu calmed down, and was about to reach out to open the window when the window was suddenly opened from the outside.

Yu Wu looked at the drenched twilight mountain scenery and was stunned, his long black hair had one or two strands attached to his face, and his delicate silhouette looked a little soft after being wet by the rain, not only his body was wet, but even his eyes seemed to be wet.

In addition to this, there is a smell of blood.

Yu Wu immediately pulled him in and frowned, "Are you injured?" ”
