I closed my eyes before he lifted the entire human skin mask from his face.

I heard him laugh softly, and after a few seconds, the touch of his hand on his waist disappeared. After a while, I opened my eyes, and it was quiet, and I was the only one left, and by the way, there was a room of sunshine.

Walk down the stairs or back to the Pomegranate Tea Room. The little guy made me a third pot of tea.

I took the wooden villain out of my arms, and looked at it carefully, under the carving knife of the scholar, every stroke was very confident, every stroke was just right, and every stroke was so familiar with me.

Put away the wooden figure and finish the flower cake and preserves.

When he walked to the counter to check out, the corner of the little girl's eyes was crooked again, and he said, "It's already settled." ”

As I was about to step out of the door, I stopped, turned around, and looked behind me.

The curtain leading to the inner courtyard swayed gently in the wind, as if flowing clothes.

Back at Womengxuan's inn in Shicheng, Lu Xun was very happy to see me, and he handed me an envelope, which contained the letter that Leng Yijun had written to me in the past two days. Lu Xun's youngest son ran to me with a basket of loquat in his arms. The child was straightforward, and he said to me with wide eyes, "Big sister, the clothes you are wearing today are so beautiful." ”

I pursed my lips and smiled, not sparing words, and complimenting him on his cuteness and handsomeness. He took the loquat from his little hand and walked back to the room.

Leng Yijun sent me two letters, one was that the Underworld Battalion had lost an elite killer, and although they were essentially guilty of impostoring, they still instructed the people to blacklist Cai Qi Kill, especially the killer codenamed "Blue". Not only that, the information that the Hades Battalion offered a high reward for the "blue" killer to the outside world, it seems that they are very determined to find out the "blue" killer.

Leng Yijun also made a special note: The price of their bounty is also called a high price? Probably they can't buy real information.

I laughed.

The other letter reads: I heard that I recently rode in a comfortable carriage comparable to a thousand miles of good horses? My brother has already been sent to develop it, and I think it will be produced soon, what are the requirements? Again, there are only unexpected needs of guests, and there are no tasks that we can't do. Always take care.

I'm happy, he's fairly well-informed.

Calculate the seven-day appointment with Yun Qinglin, today is three days, and the time is quite generous.

I had nothing to do in the afternoon, I played a set of Tang Mansion's boxing and palm techniques, not to mention, the two sets of martial arts taught me by Tang Lingshu fit my internal strength very well, and I was refreshed after completing the full set.

I don't know if it's Lu Xun's thoughtfulness, or Leng Yijun's orders, the dishes for dinner are in the style of Cheongju, and while the mood is happy, homesickness begins to breed, and to me, this is not a good thing.

The sunset time in Seokseong is later than that of Cheongju, and finally the sunset is full of stars. I was lying on a recliner in the courtyard, still wearing the white clothes given to me by the Variety Scholar. Blowing the warm night breeze, I looked at the starry sky.

My father once said to me, "He came step by step, and I could see that it was all for you." ”

If that's true, that's not bad either. But my father's vision, I don't dare to compliment, maybe, it's another Leng Yijun, Leng Yijun's brother. Perhaps, it is not possible to be as close as an older brother.

In the early morning of the second day, I packed up, rode the fast horse prepared for me by Lu Xun, and chose to take the official road to bypass the capital of Zizhou Prefecture and go to Lizhou through Tancheng.

Four days, 1,500 kilometers. Only the fast horse of Womengxuan can make the journey easier and shorter.

On the morning of the fourth day, I rode into the city gate of the capital of Lizhou.

Located in the northwest of the whole territory, Lizhou is an important transportation hub and an important commercial port, as well as an important metropolis and link connecting various ethnic groups in the Western Regions.

The bustling streets of the state capital are very extensive, and many foreign traders have set up contact points here, and the shops in the territory are mostly silk, tea, ceramics and handicrafts, and there are more types of exotic shops, in addition to the famous horse and specialty shops, there are also many dance, martial arts, medical halls and taverns. Many foreigners gradually liked the life of Lizhou, and after settling down, their living habits gradually affected all aspects of Lizhou.

Arrive at the contact point of Wo Mengxuan and return the fast horse.

When I inquired about the location of Wensi Villa, I stood far away in front of the villa with my luggage on my back, hesitating whether to go in now.

There was a series of footsteps, and I turned my head and saw Guan Xingyi walking towards me.

"The eldest prince asked me to wait here. Miss, this way, please. ”

I took a deep breath and replied, "Okay, let's go in then." ”

Not long after entering the villa, a middle-aged man was greeted in the distance, his eyes were bright, and he looked shrewd and capable.

"Miss Shui, down is the manager of Wensi Villa, Cheng Yi. I have heard the owner of the village mention Miss many times, saying that you have inherited the wisdom and beauty of the Shui family, and you are well aware of the toxicity of medical rituals. ”

"Mr. Cheng has won the award, this is the expectation of the owner of Wenren Village for the younger generation, and I have to work harder. ”

"Accommodation was arranged for Miss Shui, please let me know if you need anything. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Cheng. ”

After Cheng Yi left, Guan Xingyi continued to lead me to the place where Yun Qinglin was staying.

"Miss Shui, has the journey been smooth these past few days?" Guan Xingyi suddenly asked.

"It's going well, what about you?" he asked, too.

"We also went smoothly, according to the planned schedule, and also arrived at Wensi Mountain Resort this morning. ”

I nodded and ended the conversation.

Calculating their speed and setting a seven-day appointment, Yun Qinglin also had the heart to align the schedule with my schedule.

When I arrived at a small courtyard, I saw a few familiar guards busy packing their luggage.

"Miss Pan lives in another courtyard, and the eldest prince is in his room. Miss Shui, your room is also here. Guan Xingyi slowed down and pointed me in the direction of Yun Qinglin's room.

"The second son is still in Wensi Villa?" I asked.

"The second son is in the village, and he also lives in another courtyard, and he has already come in the morning. ”

"Hmm. ”

I carried my luggage and walked to Yun Qinglin's room.

The door to his room was open, and I raised my hand and tapped it twice. There was no response, and I didn't intend to stop there, but I lifted my feet and walked into the room.

Yun Qinglin sat at the desk, holding a book in his hand, which was still the one in his impression.

I walked up to him, and he looked up at me, then lowered his head and continued reading.

"This book is so good, you have been seeing it now?" As soon as the words came out, I regretted it and talked nonsense again.

Yun Qinglin put down the book in his hand, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, opened it, and put it on the table. The paper reads: I have another appointment, see you in Wensi Villa, Lizhou Mansion in seven days, Lan Shangyu. I know, this is my message to him.

"I've already received two messages from you, next time, I hope you tell me in person. He said to me.

I remembered that when I left Yancheng Yunfu and returned to Qingzhou, I did leave a letter to him, Bai Qiao, and Yu Dai, telling them that I would leave the mansion for a while and that they would not miss me too much.

It turned out that he had already left a letter to say goodbye to him twice.

"Consider, consider. My eyes rolled and I smiled.

"Go and put down your luggage, rest for a while, and have dinner with the owner of Wenren and them at noon. Yun Qinglin's mood seemed to be good, and his tone slowly became relaxed.

"Well, I came just in time. "I think about it, it seems that it is not right.

Sure enough, Yun Qinglin's face turned cold again.

I smiled knowingly and exited his room.

Because I was nominally Yun Qinglin's cousin, my room was next door to his room.

With my luggage gone, I lay down on the bed, put away all the expressions on my face, closed my eyes, I wanted to feel around me, looking for familiar sensations in my memory.

After resting for a while, I got up, went to the well in the courtyard to fetch water, washed my face, spread my hair and combed it, took out the most formal, beautiful and not ostentatious clothes from the package and changed them, carefully wiped the rouge gouache, and with great effort, I put myself in a generous and decent bun.

After cleaning up, I heard a knock on the door.

"Miss Shui, get ready, let's go to lunch. Guan Xingyi's voice came.

"Got it. ”

Pulling open the door, Yun Qinglin stood outside the door waiting for me, and when he saw me, his eyes first looked at me, and then his brows furrowed.

I pursed my lips and smiled, without explaining much to him.

Cheng Yi personally came to pick us up.

"I have long heard that the layout of Wensi Villa follows the Five Elements Feng Shui, but today I looked at it in the village, but I felt that the rumors were wrong. Yun Qinglin said.

"Oh, I don't know how Grand Master Yun thinks of the layout of the villa?"

"The layout of the village is unique, and each place retains the natural atmosphere and forms a world, but each place is also connected to form a whole. ”

Cheng Yi smiled on his face and said, "The eldest son of Yun is rich and has five cars, and his vision is different. Before the construction of the villa, the terrain was complex, and the owner of the village advocated nature, so the buildings, lakes, ponds and landscapes in the village were designed on the original topography, each forming a scene, and connected as a whole. ”

"The owner of Wenren Village is really an idle cloud and wild crane in the world. ”

"Yun Dagongzi described it very appropriately. ”

"Sandalwood?" I sniffed again, and yes, there was indeed a faint scent of sandalwood wafting in the air, and it was getting closer. This sandalwood is different from what you usually smell, with a hint of floral fragrance in the middle, but it does not appear cloudy, but the smell is as pure as if it is made of one material.

"Sandalwood?" Yun Qinglin looked at me, puzzled, but soon he also smelled the fragrance.

"There is indeed a sandalwood scent. ”

Cheng Yi's eyes showed shock: "The two of you have a good sense of smell, it is sandalwood, and it is not far from us." ”

Everyone looked ahead together: Yun Yilei appeared at the end of the corridor, and behind him was a tall woman in brown.

That's the eldest lady of Wensi Villa, Wen Renxiang. She was dressed in a brown satin gown, the hem of which dragged long behind her, and her expression was indifferent, giving people the impression of solemnity and dignity. Her gaze was unwavering, and it seemed to penetrate everything with ease. It's a pity that I heard that Miss Wenren doesn't know martial arts, including the people of Wenren Villa, no one has ever seen her perform martial arts.

Yun Qinglin suddenly turned his head to look at me, looking thoughtful.

I was shocked: the eyes of Lady Shuiyue were really different.

"Brother, Xihan, Cheng is in charge. "Yun Yilei greeted us.

Yun Qinglin nodded, looked at Wen Renxiang, and greeted: "This must be Miss Wen Ren?"

"Master Yun, it's better to see than to hear. Wen Renxiang has been doing well lately, thank you for your concern. "Wen Renxiang's voice is tactful and melodious, very good.

"This is Shui Xihan girl? I heard Yi Lei talk about it. Wen Renxiang's gaze turned to me, his gaze like water.

"Exactly. I replied.

"I have a marriage contract with Yun Er Gongzi. Since I am the Shui family, I should be older than you, and we will be sisters. Wen Renxiang spoke again.

Yun Yilei's eyes lit up and looked at Wen Renxiang.

Cheng Yi's expression seemed to be surprised, his lips moved, but he didn't open his mouth in the end.

The corner of my eye bent, and I replied softly: "Okay, Sister Wenrenxiang." ”
