Chapter 24 When no one whispers in the middle of the night
Frightened Zero and preparing to leave, Zhang Hanlin stopped a few people, took out a bag from a large box in his study, handed it to Zero and said: "Brother Zero, there are one hundred taels of silver in it, and the big brothers have worked a little harder in the past two days, and these silver will be used as the wine money for the big brothers." ”
Zero's face turned pale and said, "Young Master Hanlin, this can't be helped, Zhang Sheng has already waited for me enough, we can't ask for this money." ”
The other secret guards nodded again and again, and Zhang Hanlin said with a straight face: "It's my father's business to be good to you, and it's my business, I give you silver, you go to the market to carry it out on the mission, if you don't take it, don't you give me rice face." ”
Zero looked embarrassed, Zhang Hanlin stubbornly raced the silver in his arms, and said, "Big brothers, be careful. ”
Zero couldn't refuse, and hugged his fists and said: "Then I'll accept it, I thanked Hanlin on behalf of a few brothers." ”
Then, Zero led the other guards out of the study, and several people left from Zhang's mansion.
Zero asked No. 8 and No. 9 to rush to the Black Rock Market to investigate Qin Yue's matter.
The remaining eight people rushed all the way to the east gate of Dongsheng City.
The gates of the city have been closed, and more than a dozen guards are patrolling the city.
A few people hid in a hidden corner, Zero gathered everyone together, arranged the operation mission, the other twenty-three groups had other tasks in the city tonight, and the city was in turmoil, and then they took the opportunity to go out from the east gate.
After assigning the task, Zero asked everyone if they understood, and several people replied, "Understood." ”
Zero nodded and said, "Be on guard in place, keep an eye on the surrounding movements." ”
"Yes. ”
Stinging Dark Guard One, he secretly squeezed to Zero's side and said, "Team leader, remember to take us to drink after this operation, I haven't been drunk for a long time, and my heart is itching." ”
The others were tickled by these words, and their eyes brushed at Zero.
Zero said angrily: "You are really unproductive, you also heard Master Hanlin say, this is the wine money for our brothers, but I have a premise here, we must complete our task, otherwise you have the face to drink." ”
Several people looked serious and serious, and said: "Don't worry, the organization, we can't complete the task with our hands? You just wait for the time to invite us to drink the hundred-year-old red grain bar." ”
The rest of the group laughed, and Zero put his index finger to his lips and motioned for silence.
A few people quieted down, alerted to the movement around them, and waited for the opportunity.
Zhang Hanlin sent the stunned ten people away, only to remember that he seemed to owe Tong Xingyu fifty taels of silver, forget it is too late tonight, and go to the east wing room for a while, it is estimated that Yin Tianxing and Tong Xingyu have slept, and he will be returned tomorrow.
Zhang Hanlin did not leave the study, he still had one more thing to do.
took out a brush, ink, and finally took out a good paper, which Zhang Hanlin often used to practice calligraphy.
Zhang Hanlin is going to write two invitations, one for Yue'er in Hongying Courtyard, and one for Miss Lele and Huanhuan and others.
It took Zhang Hanlin 20 minutes to write the two invitations, fold them and put them in an envelope with the word "invitation" written on them.
The two envelopes were written separately, Sister Yue'er opened it in person, and Miss Lele opened it in person.
After doing this, Zhang Hanlin extinguished the candle in the study, and then came out of the study with two invitations.
Zhang Hanlin stopped a patrolling servant in the house, and the servant saw that it was Young Master Hanlin, and hurriedly said, "Young Master, do you have any orders?" ”
Zhang Hanlin took out two invitations and handed them to him and said: "Tomorrow morning, I will send these two invitations to Hongying Courtyard and hand them over to Steward Yue'er and Miss Lele, remember to hand them over to them personally." ”
"Yes, Master Hanlin. ”
"Okay, it's not too early tonight, let's rest early after patrolling. ”
I looked at the sky, and it was almost over.
After explaining this matter, Zhang Hanlin walked all the way to the east wing.
Soon returned to the east wing, at this time, except for the room where Tong Xingyu lived, it was still bright, and the other rooms were already dark, could it be that Tong Xingyu and Yin Tianxing hadn't slept yet?
Zhang Hanlin thought like this, and just wanted to go over and push the door in, when a sudden cough startled Zhang Hanlin.
"Ahem. ”
Zhang Hanlin's heart jumped, and his eyes moved to look in the direction where the voice came from.
A vague figure, it seemed to be Lingxuan, Zhang Hanlin looked at it, and sure enough, it was Lingxuan, and waved his hand to let him go at this moment.
Zhang Hanlin looked around, and after making sure that there was no one, he stood on tiptoe and came to Bai Lingxuan's side lightly.
This is a gazebo not far from the east wing, the moonlight is sprinkled, the pavilion is very bright.
Bai Lingxuan's face was happy, and she pulled Zhang Hanlin to sit on the stone chair in the pavilion.
Zhang Hanlin asked in a low voice, "Lingxuan, why don't you go to sleep so late?"
Bai Lingxuan glanced at Zhang Hanlin and said coquettishly: "People are not waiting for you. Look at what I got bitten by mosquitoes. ”
Bai Lingxuan pointed to the bag on his wrist that had been bitten by mosquitoes, and let Zhang Hanlin see that his pink cheeks had also been bitten by mosquitoes several times.
Zhang Hanlin rubbed her head and said softly: "Then don't wait for me, hurry up and go to sleep." ”
Bai Lingxuan said angrily: "I thought you would come back soon, who would have thought you would come back so late." That's why I was bitten by mosquitoes for so many packs, and I was almost itching to death. ”
Bai Lingxuan looked pitiful, and her watery eyes looked at Zhang Hanlin like that.
Zhang Hanlin took Bai Lingxuan's little hand, scratched her bag that was bitten by mosquitoes, and said, "Okay, it's all my fault, if you rub it, it won't itch." ”
Bai Lingxuan's face was shy, and she hummed lightly.
Zhang Hanlin tickled Lingxuan and asked, "Lingxuan, you are waiting for me so late,
Is there something to tell me?"
Bai Lingxuan put away her smile, looked at Zhang Hanlin and said with a serious expression: "Brother Hanlin, are you going to travel to the rivers and lakes after the crown ceremony?"
Zhang Hanlin shook his head and said, "Not so fast, I still have some things to deal with in Dongsheng City, it will take about a month." I'll leave when I'm done here. ”
"I also want to go with you to the rivers and lakes to practice, I'm so bored at home. Bai Lingxuan's eyes were full of pleading.
When Zhang Hanlin heard this, he frowned and said: "No, let's not say that Uncle Bai will not agree, and I will not agree to let you follow, the rivers and lakes are so dangerous, what is the matter with you as a girl following us." ”
Bai Lingxuan said angrily: "Then isn't it dangerous for you and Brother Tianxing to go to the rivers and lakes!"
Zhang Hanlin said with a wry smile: "This is different, Tianxing and I both have tasks, I am to complete the mission of the Everbright family, Tianxing is here to sharpen the martial arts realm, and secondly, it can also protect me, you follow us, in case there is danger, you can't protect you." ”
Bai Lingxuan's head shook like a rattle, and said coquettishly: "No, Brother Hanlin, I can also do martial arts, I can protect myself, hehe, I can also protect you by the way." ”
Zhang Hanlin poked Lingxuan's smooth forehead and said, "Don't even think about it, dispel this idea." ”
Lingxuan hung her head in frustration, and sure enough, Brother Hanlin didn't agree.
"Let's go to bed early if it's not early, I'll be busy tomorrow." ”
Bai Lingxuan remembered Zhang Hanlin's crown gift tomorrow, and hurriedly said: "I almost forgot, then let's go back quickly." ”
After speaking, the little hand took Zhang Hanlin and left from the pavilion.
"Let's go back. Zhang Hanlin said, Bai Lingxuan pecked Zhang Hanlin's face at a speed that couldn't cover her ears and steal the bell, her face was bright, and she ran away quickly after saying good night.
Zhang Hanlin's heartbeat instantly soared to one hundred and eighteen, touched the residual temperature on his face, and waved his hand to Lingxuan.
Bai Lingxuan also waved her hand, opened the door and walked into the room.
"Ahh
When Bai Lingxuan entered the door, she saw a figure lying in front of the window, and she was suddenly startled and exclaimed.
Then the figure pounced on him and covered his mouth.
"Don't scream, it's me. ”
"Miss Lin, what are you doing here?"
Bai Lingxuan saw clearly the cheeks of this figure through the moonlight, the original Lin Yishuang.
Lin Yishuang's face was a little embarrassed, and Bai Lingxuan said with a long sigh: "You won't be peeking at me and Brother Hanlin, you are too bad!"
Lin Yishuang's eyes dodged, and she said hesitantly: "I didn't mean to, I just wanted to see what you were doing when you went out in the middle of the night." I'm worried about you. ”
Bai Lingxuan's eyes were smiling, and she said, "You dare to quibble." As he spoke, he raised his fist and was about to fight.
Lin Yishuang confessed at this time: "Hmph, I just peeked at it, you even secretly kissed that nasty ghost, I saw it, what can you do to me."
Lin Yishuang stuck out her tongue, Bai Lingxuan got started, scratched Lin Yishuang's armpits, and said: "You are the nasty ghost, don't talk about Brother Hanlin." ”
"I'll just say. "Lin Yishuang is quite tough.
Bai Lingxuan looked at her like this, her hands were tickling Lin Yishuang, and soon Lin Yishuang was out of breath with a smile, and couldn't help but say, "You stop me, I won't say it." ”
"That's pretty much it. Only then did Bai Lingxuan stop.
The two ended the fight, took off their clothes and lay on the bed chatting quietly.
"By the way, you and the ...... you hate" Lin Yishuang said half a sentence, looked at Bai Lingxuan with an unkind face, and changed her words: "Have you known your brother Hanlin since childhood?"
"Well, I've known each other since I was a child, and that time ......" Bai Lingxuan talked about the past of the two, her face was soft, and her beautiful eyes were full of sweetness.
Lin Yishuang almost fell asleep when she heard this, and after Bai Lingxuan finished speaking, Lin Yishuang rubbed her sleepy eyes and said, "Ah, it's over, I'm so sleepy, go to bed early." ”
Bai Lingxuan was angry and asked her: "You didn't listen to me!"
Lin Yishuang blinked her innocent eyes and argued: "I listened, I ......"
Bai Lingxuan looked at her lack of confidence, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Then how did you and your Senior Brother Tong know each other?"
Lin Yishuang suddenly stopped sleepy, her spirits were uplifted, and she began to tell the story of the two.
When she finished speaking, she found that Bai Lingxuan had fallen asleep, breathing evenly and sleeping sweetly.
Lin Yishuang is very frustrated, she really holds a grudge. She couldn't wake up Lin Yishuang to ask, so she had to sleep with her eyes closed in a huff, and soon fell into her dream.
Zhang Hanlin pushed the door and walked into the candlelit room, and sure enough, as he expected, Tong Xingyu and Yin Tianxing had not slept yet.
The two sat at the table, talking passionately about something.
