The inn was already old, and many of the shaded areas were already covered with moss.

Yu Zhi walked out of the inn, and then heard the sound of a collapse. Behind him, the dilapidated inn building was in ruins.

From the time Ning Huan and Yu Zhi entered the inn, it was destined that only one person would be able to come out of it.

Yu Zhi knew a lot, but he couldn't understand many things. Why would a top ten boss in the killer world let an armor-piercing little minion do it? If it was really as Ning Huan said, Mr. Three could have killed Yu Zhi quietly at the wonton stall?

In order not to bother the owner of the wonton stand?

No.

Killers are ruthless guys, how can they care about other things when they kill?

Yu Zhi felt that he was deeply trapped in a mystery, a mystery that Qiu Jinfeng and Li Qingru refused to say. I thought I could know something from Ning Huan's mouth tonight, but after knowing these words, I felt that I was sinking deeper and deeper.

A loud bang didn't alarm anyone, it was the corner of the town. Even if it disturbed the sleeping people, they must have thought that some unknown creature had lit a huge firework in the middle of the night. Anyway, there is such an idle guy every year.

Yu Zhi looked back at the dust on the ruins that had not yet dispersed, and then left.

Before the weather was cold, he had to rush back to Tiandao Mountain.

......

At noon on the third day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Dafu waited at the foot of Tiandao Mountain on time, holding the reins in his hand, and stood in front of the carriage very respectfully. This is the time that Yu Zhi agreed with him.

I saw a figure walking down the mountain road.

Yu Zhi's Chinese New Year's Eve going out was unexpectedly discovered by Li Qingru. I don't know if Li Qingru has a pair of clairvoyance, but she knows Yu Zhi's movements.

Fortunately, Yu Zhi came back safe and sound, so he just blamed a few words.

"Young Master Xiaoyu."

Yu Zhi nodded, saw Wang Dafu who was still looking, and said, "Let's go, Qinghuan has been accompanying my aunt on the mountain these days." ”

Wang Dafu naturally knew who the aunt in Yu Zhi's mouth was, and the demeanor of the only female national warrior back then vaguely appeared in Wang Dafu's mind. Hearing this, he drove in the direction of Kyoto.

Only Yu Zhi knew that Ye Qinghuan was left by Li Qingru, and he must have solved the matter of the Ye family from Beiliang Mansion. And Li Qingru asked Yu Zhi to leave because he didn't want Yu Zhi to get involved in this matter. However, Yu Zhiyin smiled pathetically in the carriage, took out a gold leaf from his arms, and his eyes were full of light.

Yu Zhi and Li Qingru have been fighting wits and courage for many years, and it was Ye Qinghuan who took the gold leaf that day, not himself. Yu Zhi guessed this. It's not easy to get those things from Ye Qinghuan's hands?

Well, it is indeed not easy for others, after all, Ye Qinghuan is a very vigilant person. Yu Zhi is afraid of death, so he is highly vigilant, and Ye Qinghuan is purely because his kendo also gives him a keen heart.

Yu Zhi won a game against Li Qingru, and said to himself: "Auntie, you didn't expect it." Hahaha......"

When you go to Beiliang Mansion, you must bring gold leaves, otherwise you will be bullied, and you will be out of reach. Unlike Yu Zhi who is a little white face in Kyoto, he is protected by Qiu Ruoruo every day. Since Wang Dafu, a hundred households guarding the city, was promoted to Yu Zhi's coachman, Yu Zhi's reputation as the illegitimate son of Qiu Mansion has spread.

Pulled a good tiger skin.

"Young Master Xiaoyu, Miss is going to the Zizhu Courtyard today, let me ask you if you are also going to visit the county lord?" Wang Dafu's voice came from outside the carriage.

"No, no." Yu Zhi flatly refused. The negotiations with the mission were over, and he didn't want anything to do with it.

Wang Dafu thought for a while and reminded: "I heard from the young lady that two days ago, the county lord came to visit. ”

"Looking for me?"

"Yes."

Wang Dafu also listened to the words of the guards of the Autumn Mansion. Since he left the post he loved at the gate of Xicheng, he has often been in and out of the Autumn Mansion, and now he is also familiar with the housekeepers and guards of the Autumn Mansion.

Yu Zhi lost his voice, wondering if he had offended Nuo Min. And at the negotiating table, he helped the mission speak, although it was a little obscure, but Numin would not be unable to see it.

Baiwei Curry, Yu Zhi and Qiu Ruoruo were sitting, and Wang Dafu was guarding outside the door.

"Lord Nomin wants me to go to the racecourse?"

Yu Zhi was shocked, how could he be? Instinctively, she felt that this little girl's skin was hurting her.

"Why?" Yu Zhi stared at Qiu Ruoruo, who was drinking tea. Opening up a horse farm on the northern border was undoubtedly a beautiful and difficult errand.

The beauty lies in the fact that the two countries have agreed to work together to benefit the people of the two countries and quell the war in the north. It's done, it's a big thing.

The difficulty lies in the fact that the border between the two countries is so complicated, so complicated and complicated. There are many sects entrenched in Beiliang Mansion, and such a move is afraid that it will damage the interests of many sects. Although it was the Great Chu Emperor who issued an edict, Beiliang Mansion is far away in the north, and people in the rivers and lakes will always come to disobey the yang and the yin, and it will be a situation for several years if it is delayed.

Yu Zhi is very much like those old people in the officialdom, and they don't want to take this hot and delicious potato.

"It's a big deal." Qiu Ruoruo said. Thinking that Yu Zhi made the mistake of hiding in case of trouble again.

Yu Zhi didn't argue, but said, "I want to know why Nomin wants me to open a horse farm." She and I ...... Got a grudge? ”

Qiu Ruoruo chuckled, thinking that in the past two days, Nuo Min has been visiting every day, and the other party only said his true intention when he visited back today. I thought that I was just familiar with the Qiu family, but as soon as the other party opened his mouth in the Zizhu Courtyard today, Qiu Ruoruo knew that this heroic county lord was a drunkard and did not mean to drink.

"I think, did she fall in love with Brother Xiaoyu and want to take you back to the grassland?"

Bang!

Qiu Ruoruo covered her head and said angrily: "It hurts! ”

Yu Zhi blew his fingers, "The pain is right, what are you thinking in your little head?" As soon as the New Year is a year older, you came to make fun of me? ”

"The county lord values you and proposes to His Majesty to let you go to the north to open up a horse farm, why don't you rise step by step after the matter is completed?"

Yu Zhi still doesn't think this is a good thing.

"Don't talk about this, I heard Wang Dafu say, that Zhao Gongzi came to the door again recently? ”

Qiu Ruoruo was quite nervous when she thought of Qiu Yu entertaining Zhao Jie. Qiu Yu should be very satisfied with Zhao Jie, and he didn't know that he had mentioned his in-laws once afterwards. Qiu Ruoruo naturally disagreed, she looked down on Zhao Jie, although she was somewhat famous in Kyoto, but she was not as good as her Brother Xiaoyu and Brother Ye.

"This guy came to visit in the name of his father, and his father naturally couldn't ignore it. It's just embarrassing me. Qiu Ruoruo frowned a little displeased. Since she was a child, she wanted to be a figure like Li Qingru, why did she get married early and teach her husband and children in the house?

Yu Zhi has also seen many marriages between powerful people in the DPRK and China, which is a means for their big families to maintain their longevity, and the Qiu family is naturally no exception.

And Qiu Ruoruo, as the only daughter in the Autumn Mansion, was favored by many ministers in Kyoto.

Qiu Jinfeng only has such a granddaughter, Qiu Yu only has such a daughter, and Qiu Mansion only has a young lady.

Once they become in-laws, didn't the power and connections of Qiufu fall on the son-in-law of Chenglong in a grand manner?

Chinese New Year's Eve has passed, and Qiu Ruoruo is already sixteen years old. Many women are already married at this age, and even if they don't, they have already set the fate of their parents, and the words of the matchmaker. Therefore, many mansions in Kyoto these days also bring young people of school age to visit Akifu.

The original intention was to visit Qiuyu, but in fact, he had the intention of being a drunkard and not drinking like Nomin.

"Qiuqiu, you must follow your own wishes in the future." Yu Zhi sighed. "Being in a rich family is good and bad. But you have been born for decades, don't wronged yourself, especially in marriage. ”

Qiu Ruoruo is a very sensible girl.

He has been a sensible person since he was a child, although he was led by Yu Zhi to deviate from some directions, but in essence, he is still knowledgeable and reasonable, respects the old and loves the young. Of course, Yu Zhi also commented on himself.

But because he was sensible, Yu Zhi was only afraid that Qiu Ruoruo would wronged himself and obeyed the wishes of the elders in the family.

Yu Zhi thought of himself, and thought of Li Qingru. Although his parents are nowhere to be found, Li Qingru has not suffered any grievances since he was a child.

Qiu Ruoruo was stunned in response, but somehow her eyes were already moist.

As Yu Zhi said, her marriage is not up to her, and perhaps not her father and grandfather. Through the windows of Baiweiju, Qiu Ruoruo looked at the majestic imperial city looming in the east.

"You don't have to worry. Brother Xiaoyu has the most accurate vision for seeing people, as long as I pass the eyes, the good or bad of your father-in-law is in my heart. If you don't like it, I'll run away with Qinghuan. Yu Zhi said very righteously, as if he had already planned for this matter.

"Woo, do you want to rob the marriage?" Qiu Ruoruo burst into tears and laughed.

"How can you say that? I am representing justice and saving the oppressed girl. Don't you feel the light of righteousness that bursts out of me? Yu Zhi was not ashamed.

Knock knock.

As the two were talking, there was a knock at the door.

Qiu Ruoruo wiped off her slightly moist eyes before she opened the door.

When Ye Qinghe walked into the room, he not only saw Qiu Ruoruo, but also saw Yu Zhi opposite Qiu Ruoruo. A flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she calmed down and saluted the two of them.

Qiu Ruoruo didn't know Ye Qinghe, and she hadn't heard of a young lady surnamed Ye in Kyoto.

Ye Qinghe looks good, with a slender figure, a melon seed face, not a pale complexion, and a transparent filament hanging down from his forehead. At this time, she was wearing a pale cyan velvet robe, and she also had a white long skirt inside, which looked clean and elegant.

She is taller than Qiu Ruo, after all, she is a woman in the north and doesn't want to be so petite in the south. Like Nuo Min, she is about the same height as Yu Zhi of one meter and eight meters.

Yu Zhi knew this person - Ye Qinghe. Although it was the first time he had heard this name, on Tiandao Mountain, she was the woman sitting next to Ye Chong.

Ye Qinghe's gaze fell on Yu Zhi, he didn't expect Yu Zhi to be here. Since leaving the Wendao Academy, several members of the Ye family have lived in an inn in Kyoto.

"I heard that Miss Qiu is here, and Qinggu Ye Qinghe came to visit." Ye Qinghe saluted.

Yu Zhi gave Qiu Ruoruo a look, and Qiu Ruoruo said, "Miss Ye, please take a seat." ”

Qiu Ruoruo had heard of Qinggu, which was a sect in Beiliang Mansion. Unlike the Hanging Temple, the White Deer City, a sect that shocks the rivers and lakes, Qinggu can only be regarded as a third-rate sect in the rivers and lakes of Nuoda. Therefore, a marquis of the imperial court is enough to make the Qinggu Ye family swallow their anger.

"As soon as the little girl arrived in Kyoto, she heard that Miss Qiu was shining in the negotiations with the Steppe Wolf Court, and she was a model for women like us. Now that she has come from afar, the little woman just wants to see Miss Qiu's demeanor. Ye Qinghe said.

Qiu Ruoruo also responded politely when he heard this.

It's not easy for two people to get acquainted right away, especially two women.

Yu Zhi didn't say a word, he treated himself as if he was air, and drank tea by himself. If he wasn't here today, Ye Qinghe wouldn't have come to see Qiu Ruoruo's demeanor.

Dare to ask what woman likes to watch another woman in the limelight and then send her sincere wishes?

Yes, very little.

And Yu Zhi was sure that Ye Qinghe was not such a woman.

The tea was changed round after round, Yu Zhi waited calmly, and Ye Qinghe and Qiu Ruoruo were not familiar with each other, and there were very few topics to talk about.

"Dare to ask Yu Gongzi, Qing Huan has never returned to Kyoto with you?"

Yu Zhi thought to himself, finally here. Seeing Ye Qinghe enter the door, Yu Zhi thought of this scene, but he waited for a long time.

Yu Zhi looked at Ye Qinghe and looked directly into Ye Qinghe's eyes, obviously this was a wise woman. Because she came to visit Qiu Ruoruo.

In the world, all coincidences are deliberately arranged. Especially when you meet someone in a certain place or something, you don't even need to think about it.

Ye Qinghe followed Qiu Ruoruo's carriage early this morning and went to Zizhu Courtyard, and later went to Baiweiju. She had investigated Ye Qinghuan, it was an easy matter, before they came to Kyoto, the portrait of a handsome young man and a volume of information had already appeared in their hands.

Autumn Ruoruo ......

The Ye family didn't expect that Ye Qinghe didn't expect that her younger brother, who had been away for ten years, would be close friends with the young lady of the Qiu family. Of course, the reputation of the top of the Qingyun trial list shocked her even more. She smiled bitterly, did the grandfather in Qinggu regret it?

And, of course, Yu Zhi. This resounding gentleman asked the shame of the Academy.

Ye Qinghe never took Yu Zhi to heart, because--asked the shame of the Academy. These six words do not exist in vain. However, when she saw Yu Zhi's appearance when she asked the Dao Academy, it seemed that Ye Qinghuan was very convinced of the shame of asking the Dao.

"He was afraid that you would harass him, so he stayed in the Ask Dao Academy." Yu Zhi said indifferently.

Ye Qinghe heard such straightforward words for the first time, and after being stunned for a moment, he smiled lightly and said, "My younger brother has been living abroad for many years, thanks to the two of them who take care of him on weekdays. Qinghe toasted two people with tea instead of wine. ”

Qiu Ruoruo didn't know what was going on, what brother, Ye Qinghe was Brother Ye's sister? Seeing that Yu Zhi didn't raise a glass, Qiu Ruoruo naturally wouldn't raise a glass.

Ye Qinghe was embarrassed. Who dares to ignore themselves like this in Beiliang Mansion, they are all hugging each other in the party, but these two people ......

Yu Zhi smiled coldly, listening to Ye Qinghe's words, he suddenly felt a sense of anger in his heart.

"Why do you toast? It's that the head of the Ye family is not qualified when he comes. Qinghuan and I are brothers, but you and she are not sisters and brothers. From beginning to end, your Ye family has never taken care of him for half a minute, when he was hungry, when he was floating in the river and his life was dying, I have never seen the shadow of your Ye family. Since your Ye family chose to abandon their mother and son back then, why are you brazenly begging Qinghuan to go back now? ”

Yu Zhi's words were very polite.

"And it's still our tea." Yu Zhi's eyes glanced at the teacup that Ye Qinghe was holding up.

Yu Zhi's mouth was a little dry, and he drank the water in his teacup.

Hitting people doesn't slap them in the face. Whether it is in Beiliang Province or Kyoto, all communication between wealthy families is to maintain a principle - if you give me a face, I will give you a face. This nothingness is an extremely important thing in the eyes of these young ladies of Childe.

This is dignity, and it is the bottom line of life.

There are only two situations in which people can tear through these masks of hypocrisy.

First, the two sides are already enemies, and they may soon become enemies.

The second is that after tearing your face, the other party doesn't care about your revenge at all. You are not worth mentioning in the eyes of the other person.

Ye Qinghe felt that Yu Zhi belonged to the second type, but did Yu Zhi really have such a background and strength? With him, a petty official of the Jiupin Metropolitan Procuratorate?

Ye Qinghe gently put down the teacup in his hand, there were only three of them here, but Yu Zhi's voice was enough for the guests outside or in other rooms to hear. This is the three-story building of Baiweiju, how many dignitaries and nobles are chatting here, and how many people have heard the movement inside?

Qiu Ruoruo also seemed to understand what was going on, and her face became unpleasant. However, these things need to be decided by Ye Qinghuan herself, and she can't say anything.

"The grandson of Shaowu Hou in Beiliang Mansion died on the woman's belly three months ago, and there is no successor?"

Yu Zhi didn't stop his offensive and sneered. It was really hard for him to imagine what kind of mood Ye Qinghe was sitting in here now, and he didn't know why Ye Chong and the others went to Tiandao Mountain with a thick face.

Ye Qinghe's eyes widened, and she nodded slowly, feeling in her heart that this notorious teenager was not what she imagined - "worthy of the name".

Yu Zhi returned to Kyoto and immediately went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, where the official position of the secretary of the Jiupin Metropolitan Procuratorate was not large, but he was also able to access a lot of information. For example, the movements of the Marquis of Shaowu in Beiliang Mansion. According to the laws of the Great Chu Dynasty, all those who are officials in the court, and those who have immediate family members, weddings, funerals, and marriages must report to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

The grandson of Shaowuhou died in the Qinglou.

It's a trivial matter, and the people of Kyoto don't even have an interest in talking about it.

The northern ryo province is remote, and this news will only be transmitted to the Metropolitan Inspectorate in Kyoto.

Yu Zhi was already able to guess just by looking at the information from Beiliang Mansion, and he looked down on the Ye family even more in his heart, aren't Ye Qinghe and Ye Chong the Ye family?

Ye Qinghe didn't say a word, and she also felt ashamed. Because of Shaowuhou's grandson, Qinggu has been suppressed from all sides for more than ten years. Relying on the accumulated heritage in the past, he barely survived these years.

The Ye family had to come to Kyoto!

If Ye Qinghuan can go back and enter the ancestral hall of the Shaowu Marquis Mansion, Qinggu will be able to turn over and sweep away the decline of previous years. So all this, it's not that the Ye family wants Ye Qinghuan to return to the Ye family, but that they want Ye Qinghuan to return to the Shaowuhou Mansion.

Under the dull atmosphere, Yu Zhi pulled Qiu Ruoruo away.

Looking at today's warm sun and blue sky, the anger in Yu Zhi's heart seemed to dissipate a little, and he muttered to himself: "The drunkard doesn't mean to drink. ”
