Chapter 16: Return to Yejia Village
When Ye Ningxiang woke up, she found that she was lying on a very delicate and elegant wooden bed, the wounds on her body had been bandaged, and Yu Gongzi was sitting next to her. Recalling the brutal duel in the secret room, Ye Ningxiang retreated to the corner of the bed in horror.
"Are you afraid of me?" Xiao Qingyu said very gently while wetting the towel in the basin next to his legs.
Ye Ningxiang curled her legs, opened her eyes wide, and didn't speak, but in addition to horror in her eyes, there was a little hatred in her eyes.
Xiao Qingyu didn't get angry when she saw her appearance, wrung out the towel, and said with concern: "You are injured, and you still have a fever, you should rest well, lie down obediently, and don't move!" After saying that, he put the towel on Ye Ningxiang's head.
"This world is about the survival of the fittest, if I have mercy today and take those children into my pocket, even if I spend many years cultivating, in the end it will only be the end of death. Xiao Qingyu looked at Ye Ningxiang, gently stroked Ye Ningxiang's arm with his right hand, and continued: "It's the same death, what's the difference between dying early and dying late." ”
Ye Ningxiang didn't know where she got the courage, so she turned around and rushed her head to the wall, and the towel she had just pasted before also fell, obviously refuting Xiao Qingyu's face.
Who knew that Xiao Qingyu didn't have the slightest anger, and smiled and said, "Then you have a good rest, and when the injury is healed, I will find a special person to train you." Make you the best spy I can be. ”
Ye Ningxiang thought to herself: It turns out that Xiao Qingyu wants to train himself to be a spy, but he is a tea merchant, what is the use of raising a spy, does he have any other identities, and what are some ulterior secrets?
Thinking about it, Ye Ningxiang fell asleep groggily. A month later, Ye Ningxiang's injury has fully recovered, and under the recommendation of Xiao Qingyu, he was able to learn martial arts with the top martial arts masters in the rivers and lakes.
Time flies like flowing water, and in a blink of an eye, Ye Ningxiang has been studying under Xiao Qingyu for seven years. In the past seven years, Ye Ningxiang has followed Xiao Qingyu's arrangement, worked hard to learn everything that Xiao Qingyu wanted her to learn, and tried her best to learn everything.
On this day, Ye Ningxiang was reviewing the knowledge that the previous teacher had taught as usual, Xiao Qingyu's personal attendant Gao Fei walked into Ye Ningxiang's room politely, and said very solemnly: "Miss Ye, Yu Gongzi said that you have learned everything you should learn now, it's time to help him do things!"
"Okay, what should I do, do I go now?" Ye Ningxiang asked.
"Miss Ye, you go with me to see Yu Gongzi first, and he will tell you how to do the next thing. Goofy replied.
Ye Ningxiang has rarely seen Xiao Qingyu over the years, and she doesn't know what he's busy with. It's also to blame himself, in the past seven years, he has only cared about learning all kinds of spy skills, almost disconnected himself from the whole world, and Ye Ningxiang rarely pays attention to what has happened to things around him. So seeing Xiao Qingyu this time, Ye Ningxiang was really taken aback, because Xiao Qingyu was neither in Xiao Mansion nor in Yingdu, but in Jing'an, the capital of the country.
Ye Ningxiang took many days in a carriage to rush from Yingdu to Jing'an. According to Gao Fei's guidance, Ye Ningxiang walked into a place called Yipinju.
Although this is a teahouse, it is decorated fresh and elegant, and the furniture in the building is almost all made of sorbe, which is unique to Yingdu, although it is simple but luxurious. In the southeast corner of the first floor, there is a young woman stroking the piano, the sound of the piano is graceful and melodious, like a mountain spring from the valley flowing slowly, straight to the tip of everyone's heart.
Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Xiao Qingyu actually built such a teahouse full of atmosphere in the capital of the country, in fact, it is clearly said to be a teahouse, but in fact, it is a place where some literati or dignitaries talk to each other.
Ye Ningxiang was taken by Gao Fei to a very elegant living room on the second floor, and a few pots of orchids were placed by the window, exuding a refreshing fragrance.
"You're here. I only heard a very magnetic voice coming from behind the screen, and it was Xiao Qingyu who spoke.
"I've seen Yu Gongzi. Ye Ningxiang said with a slight bend of her knees.
"Come in, let me see what the little Ning Xiang I have worked so hard to cultivate has become!" Xiao Qingyu said with a smile, which seemed to contain a sense of spoiling.
Ye Ningxiang crossed the screen, walked in front of Xiao Qingyu, and sat in front of him at Xiao Qingyu's signal.
"Well, Xiao Ningxiang has grown up and has become a first-class beauty," Xiao Qingyu took a sip of tea unhurriedly, still with a smile on his face, "It seems that my vision is not bad." ”
I haven't seen him for a few years, Xiao Qingyu hasn't changed much, but he is more mature in appearance and more kind to others, but Ye Ningxiang knows that the more gentle and weak Xiao Qingyu is, the more amiable and amiable it is, the more he means that he is deeper in mind and more cruel in his actions.
Xiao Qingyu finally got to the point, "I spent so many years cultivating you just to ask you to help me do one thing," Xiao Qingyu looked at Su Huang very seriously and paused, and continued: "Help me enter the palace to subvert Dali's regime." ”
What, Xiao Qingyu has been fighting for so many years It turned out to be the idea of Da Li, Ye Ningxiang was a little difficult to accept when she learned such a truth, and she was dull for a while and did not speak.
"What, I'm scared of you!" Xiao Qingyu took out a new teacup, slowly poured a cup of tea and continued: "This is today's new oolong tea, it's very fresh, you can taste it." ”
Ye Ningxiang took a sip, and also looked at Xiao Qingyu very seriously and said, "What should I do?"
"In another seven or eight days, the ceremonial officials who selected the palace people for leaving the country will come to Rinzhou, and I want you to return to Yejia Village, and use your real identity to participate in the election of the palace people. ”
"It turns out that Childe has already checked my details clearly. Ye Ningxiang smiled and drank the rest of the tea.
Early in the morning of the second day, Ye Ningxiang changed into coarse cloth clothes, carried a tattered package, brought some dry food in the package, set up an open-top carriage to transport goods, and came to Yejia Village all the way.
Yejia Village is still the same, there are always one or two chickens in front of each household's fence yard to compete with each other to see whose voice is louder, keep cooing, the smoke that gradually rises is also mixed with the fragrance of rice, walking in the field can occasionally see the little dog who doesn't know whose house keeps barking at you, it is very cute.
Ye Ningxiang was very emotional in her heart, and after going around for seven years, she finally returned to the place where her life began after being reborn.
Before she arrived at the door, Ye Ningxiang shouted: "Dad, mother, Ninglu, I'm back!"
Father Ye held a cigarette pouch in his hand, was swallowing clouds and spitting fog, and when he heard that someone seemed to be talking outside, he turned his head and asked Ye Liu, who was sitting on the sole of his shoe, "Is there anyone talking outside?"
"Who is anyone, did you hear it wrong, Ning Lu went to her second aunt's house in the past two days, and she won't come back now, and the neighbors are also deeply offended by you, who is willing to visit our house. ”
"No, I did hear someone talking outside, I have to go out and have a look!" Daddy Ye put on a coat, stepped on a pair of straw sandals and walked outside the house, the moment he opened the door, Daddy Ye was so surprised that he cried on the spot.
"It's Ning Xiang, Ning Xiang is back, wife, it's Ning Xiang is back!" Father Ye was so excited that he didn't know what to say for a while, but he hugged Ning Xiang very hard, and tears kept welling up in his eyes.
