Ye Jingzhao saw a young man in a plain robe at the gate, and he was slightly stunned.

This was the first time she had seen Mu Yanzong wearing this kind of plain robe.

Xu is because of his clothes, Zhou's perennial martial arts aura is slightly hidden.

At a glance, I thought it was a merchant who traveled from south to north.

"How can you dress so plainly today?"

Ye Jingzhao stepped forward, frowned slightly, bowed falsely, and carefully looked at Mu Yanzong's outfit.

Seeing her ask about her outfit, Mu Yanzong lowered his head and glanced at the clothes on his body, and raised his head, "Isn't it nice to dress up like this?" If you don't like it, I won't wear it like this in the future. ”

Mu Yanzong said as he took the food box from the hands of the little guy behind him.

Cautiously handed it to her, and said, "There is a new candied fruit shop in the city, and I don't know if you like it or not, so I bought some of them all, you can taste them." ”

"If you like whichever one you like, I will ask Xiangyue to go out and buy it for you on weekdays, and the money will be recorded in my account."

"I have saved a hundred taels of silver in the shop, you can buy it with confidence."

Ye Jingzhao was dumbfounded, and took the food box from his hand, just a candied fruit.

He actually deposited a hundred taels of silver in the shop.

It's hard for him to have a heart.

Being remembered like this always makes people feel inexplicably warm in their hearts.

The corners of Ye Jingzhao's lips raised slightly.

He nodded slightly.

"I'm going to go out and do some things, I'm not in Kyoto these days, you should be more careful in everything."

"Also, if it's okay, go and talk to my mother, so that she won't be lonely, although she is accompanied by her cousin Mianmian now, but Mianmian is still young, not as intimate as you."

"Where are you going? What to do with the Nan'an camp. ”

Ye Jingzhao blurted out, his tone was a little hurried, but in fact, it was just because he was uneasy.

This was the first time she had heard Mu Yanzong say that she was going to leave Kyoto for a while.

"The Nan'an camp is now taken care of by Second Brother Ye, I don't think anything will go wrong, I want to go out to help the prince do something, it's not good to tell others, you don't have to worry."

"These days when I'm not in Kyoto, you take care of yourself."

Although he had secretly left someone to protect Jing Zhao, he was still not at ease.

I can't wait to take her with me all the time.

Ye Jingzhao saw him say that he wanted to help the prince with his errands, but he was afraid that there was something hidden in it.

I didn't want to ask much, so I handed the food box in my hand to the maid behind me.

Only then did he stare at him nervously and admonished, "You be careful all the way......"

I squeezed out such a sentence for a long time.

A thousand words choked in his throat, but he didn't know how to speak.

Mu Yanzong nodded lightly, and when he was leaving, he looked at Ye Jingzhao again, and stopped talking.

Eventually, he stepped forward and raised his hand to gently rub her forehead.

Only this time, Ye Jingzhao did not dodge Mu Yanzong's hand.

The moment he touched himself, he shuddered and his heart raced.

Her cheeks were hot, and she raised her eyes to look at the young man in front of her.

pursed his lips, and finally said, "I'll wait for you." ”

The corners of Mu Yanzong's lips couldn't help but rise, and there was a soft light in his eyes.

He nodded slightly, and then took a step back, only to say another word when he was leaving. "When you go back, you go back to the house alone, open the food box, and then take it to share with others."

He stared meaningfully at the food box, his eyes revealing some advice.

Ye Jingzhao's heart tightened, nodded slightly, and took the food box from the maid's hand.

The fingers gripping the handle tightened and nodded at him, signaling that he didn't have to worry.

Mu Yanzong turned around and left three times in one step.

Look at the back of the long street that is gradually disappearing.

For some reason, Ye Jingzhao was a little melancholy for the first time.

At some point in my heart, a hole appeared, and it became more and more hollow.

It's as if nothing can fill the gap in my heart.

She thought that if Mu Yanzong returned to Kyoto on the day, the gap in her heart would disappear.

As soon as Ye Jingzhao returned to the house, he took all the maids out.

The people around her, it's not that she doesn't believe it, it's really Mu Yanzong's explanation, and she must not be careless.

Red dates are guarding the door.

Ye Jingzhao opened the three-layer food box.

The first layer is the same as the second layer, and there are all kinds of pastries, which are extremely delicate and attractive.

Ye Jingzhao didn't put too much thought on this.

Instead, he stared at the food box on the bottom layer.

There was a booklet with an epistle at the top.

Ye Jingzhao stretched out his hand and took out two things, opening the letter on one side and flipping through the booklet on the other.

Inside the booklet it seems to be a ledger.

But it is very different from the account books of the head of the house on weekdays.

With a single glance, Ye Jingzhao was horrified.

Because that booklet turned out to be an account book involving corruption in the DPRK and China.

Where did Mu Yanzong get this, and why did he give it to her.

I've read the letters.

She finally understood why.

He had to go out of Kyoto to investigate the corruption cases in this booklet, and all the way he disguised himself as a merchant team, and he had to visit almost all the cities in the border gates.

It can be seen that the amount of corruption in this booklet is staggering.

This trip was instructed by the prince.

He told her in his heart that she should not worry, and the Son of Heaven would use the excuse of his dereliction of duty to dismiss him from his official position.

The more he saw the back, the more Ye Jingzhao's heart sank.

This time I traveled in disguise, and I was afraid that it would be difficult to walk along the way.

She looked up at the void, silently praying in her heart that he would return to Kyoto all the way safely.

This account book, he is not good to leave to his mother, and it is not safe in a place like the Su Mu Hou Mansion.

Because of the time when his father had just passed away, Mu Yanzong's former friends also deliberately alienated him.

This thing, after thinking about it, could only be handed over to Ye Jingzhao for safekeeping.

After all, she was his fiancée, and he could trust her.

Within two days, there was another boiling incident in Kyoto.

Mu Yanzong, the eldest son of the Sumu Hou Mansion, provoked the anger of the Son of Heaven, neglected his duties, and was dismissed from his official position by the Son of Heaven.

Ye Jingzhao got the news.

took red dates, Xiangyue, and Xiangmin to the Sumu Hou Mansion.

Because she has now gone to the Jiang family in the Xiaoyong Marquis Mansion to study with Miss Jiang.

Zhao Mianmian hadn't seen her for several days.

Although in Yuming Academy, the female students are extremely easy to get along with.

But she still hopes to see Ye Jingzhao every day.

"Sister Jingzhao."

Zhao Mianmian was holding the medicine in her hand, and when she saw her coming, her eyes lit up in an instant.

Just as he was about to rush forward, he remembered that he was holding his aunt's decoction in his hand.

Steady your mind and step by step.

The two met under the porch of the big house.

Now they are all going to see Mrs. Mu Zhao.

Ye Jingzhao stepped forward quickly and took the decoction from Zhao Mianmian's hand.

Only then did he ask, "Mianmian, is Mrs. Mu sick?" ”

Zhao Mianmian's eyes turned red and nodded.

"My aunt is worried about my cousin, and she has contracted a cold again, so she has asked a doctor, but she has taken medicine for several days, but it has no effect."

"Sister Jing Zhao, did my cousin really make any mistakes?"

"Why did the people in the Hou Mansion say that my cousin left my aunt and me and ran for his life."
