Yo, lost the jade seal?

A threshold separates the two on both sides of the house.

Lai Yu ignored everything, then turned back to laughing and asked, "Why did you come here? After you have Jinrui, you don't miss me anymore, do you?"

"No." Xie Xiangmei hastily explained, "You've only been back for a day and you're about to leave. How can you have time to catch up on the old days?"

What Lai Yu wanted was an explanation, he just wanted Xie Xiangmei to give him some emotions.

Feeling much more comfortable, Lai Yu stepped out of the threshold, stood in front of Xie Xiangmei and said, "Aren't I busy? Fortunately, you are here today, otherwise we will not see each other for several months."

"I don't know what will happen in the future. If you go back to the desert, it will be hard to see." Xie Xiangmei lowered her head and muttered to herself.

Lai Yu only heard a voice, but didn't hear its meaning, and asked, "What did you say?"

Xie Xiangmei shook her head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, you'll be leaving in a while, so I won't go in and sit."

After finishing speaking, Xie Xiangmei turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait, I still haven't finished talking. Is it because I am a noble concubine that I don't want to talk to my husband anymore." Lai Yu said bluntly, he was angry with Xie Xiangmei.

Xie Xiangmei stopped in her tracks, neither turning around nor replying.

Lai Yu didn't care, just asked: "Where do you live now? Anyway, the carriage is not yet available, I'll walk around your courtyard."

Still can't let it go, seeing Xie Xiangmei like this today, Lai Yu can't help but want to intervene in this matter.

"It's inconvenient today, let's talk about it later." Xie Xiangmei refused straight away.

"Inconvenient? Isn't it just the few acres of land in the palace? If there's any inconvenience, walk around and take me to see your palace." Regardless of Xie Xiangmei's refusal, Lai Yu grabbed her arm.

I still want to go today.

Xie Xiangmei was being dragged by Lai Yu, her tense expression had already relaxed, and she kept powerlessly refusing: "Brother Lai, there's nothing to see, so don't go..."

"Yu~" The sound of horseshoes stopped at the corner, and Ding Xi walked back to the other courtyard with heavy steps, and happened to run into Lai Yu and Xie Xiangmei who were tugging.

"Laitou, I've brought the carriage, where are you going..." Recognizing Xie Xiangmei, Ding Xi stopped talking.

"Brother Lai, the carriage is here, go quickly." Taking advantage of Lai Yu's relaxation, Xie Xiangmei vigorously shook off the hand holding his arm, and took a few steps forward.

Lai Yu's hand was empty, and then he held it tightly and put it down. He didn't entangle with Xie Xiangmei any more. He half cared and half warned: "You are easy-going, but you are also easy to be manipulated by others. In the future, if there is something that concerns your own life or the lives of others , you must think twice, don't waste Dr. Xie's painstaking efforts to save the world, and don't let yourself regret it for the rest of your life."

On the other side, Xie Xiangmei bit her lips tightly before replying, a pair of skillful hands clenched into fists between the cuffs.

Seeing this, Lai Yu's heart softened a bit, and he said: "I'm leaving soon, you should go back too."

After finishing speaking, Lai Yu turned around, and wanted to enter the courtyard to call for some people to get on the car.

Only then did they realize that they had been standing in front of the door for most of the day.

After looking at each other in blank dismay, the few retreated into the courtyard in embarrassment.

In the panic, someone pushed Ye Qiubai out as a barrier.

Ye Qiubai was caught off guard and rushed straight to Lai Yu.

Lai Yu hastily stretched out his hand to embrace Ye Qiubai, and after holding him steady, he shouted behind him: "The carriage is here, why go back!"

They stopped again, turned around slowly, and saw Lai Yu's sullen expression...

"The carriage is here!" As if nothing had happened, several people pushed and shoved past Lai Yu, and quickly got into the carriage.

Lai Yu supported Ye Qiubai without letting go, then pulled his sleeves, and walked to the carriage side by side with him.

Seeing that Lai Yu was still sullen, Ye Qiubai let him pull him.

Seeing Xie Xiangmei standing stiffly beside him, Lai Yu paused for a moment, and said, "Hurry back, we're leaving..."

He still wanted to ask something more, but felt that it was unnecessary, so he got up and pulled Ye Qiubai into the car.

The whip was raised, and the horse stepped away.

Xie Xiangmei relaxed and staggered back a few steps.

On a straight and quiet path, Jin Rui appeared in a yellow robe, walking towards Xie Xiangmei alone.

"Xiangmei, you did a good job." Jin Rui put Xie Xiangmei on the shoulder and patted it slightly.

Xie Xiangmei had tears in her eyes, and asked directly: "The matter in Ruan Yan Palace will not cause any other harm, will it?"

Jin Rui didn't think about it, and he was relieved: "Why don't you even believe my words? I didn't tell A Shu. I just went to find Yuxi to make him feel at ease. When I really practiced, I will definitely give him some."

"Why did he care about these things?" Xie Xiangmei lowered her head and sneered, "Why did I care about it, it's just for you."

Jin Rui didn't hear Xie Xiangmei's words, and since he moved into Ruanyan Palace, he was always excited, then put his arms around Xie Xiangmei's shoulders, and pushed her towards Ruanyan Palace: "Okay, the palace can't do without you, hurry up Go back soon."

In the early morning, the new concubine Xie Xiangmei, who had never met before, disappeared in the palace after a flash.

But it's also strange, since that day, no one has talked about it.

It is said that Jin Rui made a metaphor, whoever criticizes Concubine Mei and Ruan Yandian will be beheaded immediately.

~~

All the way to the west, we entered autumn early.

In the morning and evening, the coolness is getting stronger, and in the afternoon, it is hot as usual, especially when it is close to the desert. The temperature is volatile throughout the day.

In autumn, the wind blows fiercely, and the sky is full of dust, but there is an endless stream of brokers and warriors entering the desert.

The eyes of Mo Mo are beyond the head, and there are two heavens of ice and fire.

The wind in the city stopped abruptly, and the night was refreshing in autumn, and the day was mild in spring, neither hot nor cold, and the temperature was moderate, which attracted a large number of visitors.

During the trip, Moyan became prosperous, known as the second largest city.

However, there are not many visitors who can travel long distances across the desert, and most of the people who gather here are speculators and quacks who have taken refuge. Therefore, Moyan has a second name - the city of all evil.

Here, the biggest rule is no rules.

The horse-drawn carriage was replaced by a camel, and after crossing the long yellow sand, a few people came to the checkpoint of Moyan, where everything in the desert began.

"Laitou, there are a lot of people lined up at the front door." Ding Xi, who was leading the way ahead, turned back and said to Lai Yu.

Lai Yuzheng was lying comfortably on the hump, basking in the sun with his legs crossed. After a long time in the desert, he really missed the scorching sun.

Hearing what Ding Xi said, Lai Yu removed the veil and said firmly, "Impossible, you thought you were in Dadu, huh, you're still queuing up!"

"Laitou is true, if you don't believe me, look at it." Ding Xi was also very sure, with his legs clamped, he took the camel away and let Lai Yu out of sight.

Lai Yu stretched his neck outward, and sure enough, there was a long line in front of him.

A few camels reached the end of the line without taking a few steps, and had to stop and line up.

Lai Yu stood up abruptly, jumped off the ground and muttered, "What's going on?"

Ye Qiubai also jumped down together, and the two quickly walked through the camels, and found the queue ahead, Lai Yu patted one of them on the shoulder and asked, "Brother, why is there a queue here?"

The brother glanced back, obviously impatient, and guessed that he had been waiting for a long time, and replied: "The officers and soldiers are checking people, they won't let them in!"

"Is there anything to check? Do you still want to find out which escaped prisoner, or a businessman who resold privately?" Lai Yu said with a smile. If this is the case, it is really unnecessary. a lot.

The visitor saw that Lai Yu was very familiar with Mocheng, so he relaxed his guard a bit, his tone was a little more friendly, and he approached Lai Yu and replied mysteriously: "They are not looking for people."

"Not human?" Lai Yu rolled his eyes and asked again, "What is that?"

At this point, the visitor became interested and replied, "It's an ogre!"

"Oh." Lai Yu frowned, slightly surprised, "What is an ogre?"

"That has to start from that day three months ago..." Anyway, they couldn't get in the queue, so the spectators simply chatted with Lai Yu.

The people on the camel also landed on the ground, forming a circle, listening to the conversation of the spectators.

"One night three months ago, a group of people came back from their errands, and suddenly met a tiger-like beast. It is said that the beast was more than ten feet tall, with a black body, green eyes, and two fangs sharper than a machete. They swallowed one of them, and the others fled quickly, thus saving their lives, and every month after that, there would be fewer people in the city, and everyone called that beast an ogre."

"Then go catch the ogre? Why do you want to block people here at the city gate?" After listening for a long time, Lai Yu didn't know why, so he couldn't help interjecting.

"Listen to me, this is about to be said." The visitor hurriedly said, "According to those who survived, the ogre can transform into a human form and come and go in the city at will, which is why the officers and soldiers guarding the city are so strict. , but after searching for so long, there are still people missing in the city every month, which makes people panic."

After listening, Lai Yu fell into deep thought, then turned to look at San Dao, and asked, "Sir, have you ever heard of this man-eating beast?"

Sandao twitched the two beards around his mouth, fell into deep thinking, and said slowly: "But all beasts have the possibility of cannibalism, but the only one that can take human form is..."

"Four Elephants!" Before San Dao finished speaking, the visitor remembered something and said, attracting everyone's attention, "Yes, they said that ogre is one of the Four Elephants."

"Fart!" After listening, San Dao yelled, "Si Xiang is a divine beast, it is impossible to hurt people for no reason!"

"Why are you swearing at people?" The visitor was confused by the three scolding, and turned back, "Isn't there a tiger-like beast in the Four Elephants? This is just right."

"Don't give your grandma a fart. One of the four elephants is a white tiger. The beast you described is black all over. How could it be a four elephant." San Dao taught again, "The four elephants are the divine beasts guarding the four continents. Ordinary people have to rely on them, don't know how to arrange them here!"

"Mortal! Then what are you!" The visitor approached Sandao, his voice raised a little, and he grabbed his collar.

In an instant, countless gazes were attracted, and the surroundings became quiet. Unknowingly, a theater-watching circle formed and surrounded several people.

"What are you yelling about!" A group of people rushed to the front to disperse the outside circle, and a young officer got off the carriage and approached the two who were entangled.
