Xizhou Qu

Riding alone in the dark streets, Xizhou City is a bustling capital, but in the dead of night, only the brothel is still brightly lit, and the rest of the streets and attics have already turned off the lights, and there is silence, as the evening wind blows His hair, like dark black hair, pulled out his black hair, as if even Night Breeze knew how to leave people and worry.

Only the watchman was wandering in the street. When he passed the watchman, he finally couldn't help taking a deep look at Ye Ziyu who was still standing at the door. Slightly fluttering in the night wind, he gradually couldn't see his appearance clearly. He only saw a shadow hidden in the darkness, but that shadow seemed unusually tall. In this bustling Xizhou City, the only thing worthy of his thoughts and nostalgia was probably that Ye Ziyu, who has protected him for 11 years.

The city wall in the night seemed to be covered with a layer of hazy mist by the faint moon, and a faint mist floated on the dark wall.The guard at the gate of the city was still guarding the gate dedicatedly. He showed the seal printed by Ye Ziyu to the guards, saying that there was an urgent need to leave the city, but the guards were indifferent. The guard said: "The fourth prince has an order, tonight Don't even think about flying out of the city, girl, please come back."

One of the guards saw him alone, and immediately left the city gate, but Ye Jingyi didn't notice.When he was entangled, Jueyun appeared. He was dressed in casual clothes and carried his own sword with him. His hair was a little messy. He seemed to be awakened from his sleep. He said to him expressionlessly: "Miss Ye, the fourth prince has something to do." please."

He never thought that Nangong Ruo would invite him to the Fourth Prince's Mansion at this time. Judging by the posture of the guards at the gate, it seemed that he had already confessed that the two had just separated, but they invited him into the mansion at this time. He didn't know. What is his idea.

Seeing that the city gate couldn't get out, he really wanted to ask Xiang Xiang what Nangong Ruo meant, so he followed Jueyun to the fourth prince's Ruoling Mansion.

The word Ruo Ling was taken from Bai Nangong Ruozhong's Ruo character, plus the character bestowed by the current emperor. If there is no accident, after the crown prince ascended the throne, Nangong Ruo's character when he became king would be Ling.

But when he walked into Ruo Da Ruoling's mansion, Nangong Ruo didn't show up. Instead, he was arranged by the housekeeper to live in a guest room in a side courtyard. , the courtyard is full of all kinds of flowers of different colors, as if they have collected the spring colors of the four seasons, even in the night, they still can't hide the dazzling colors.

The flowers of each season are harvested and displayed in this side courtyard. If the housekeeper hadn't bluntly said that it was a side courtyard, it might be the main courtyard, and Ye Jingyi would not have doubted it.

Jue Yun said: "The Fourth Emperor will invite you tomorrow morning, so Ms. Ye should stay here first."

He is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. Hearing this, he felt as if he had stepped into a thief's boat, so he said dissatisfied: "Since your fourth prince invited me here, but left me here, what if his Nangong mean."

So regardless of Jueyun and the housekeeper's stop, he began to shout in the mansion, "Nanguanruo, come out for me, invite me here at night, but leave me alone, you treat me like this...what is this girl?" .”

Unable to hold back his yelling, Nangong Ruo looked at the sky after being startled awake, the sky had revealed a fish-belly white, and there seemed to be a faint glow in the eastern sky. After getting dressed, she walked out of her yard, and said to Ye Jingyi who was dissatisfied at the door of the guest room, "Aunt Ye has no housekeeper after breakfast, go and prepare."

The old butler with a small goatee responded, and then retreated. After a while, a maid came in with exquisite plates, which contained various pastries and desserts.

He said directly: "Nangongruo, I want to leave the city."

Nan Gongruo ignored him, but picked up a piece of dessert and took a bite before slowly saying: "I never thought Miss Ye would choose to leave the city late at night."

"I have something urgent to go out of the city, and I hope that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince will resolve it."

Nangong Ruo took a deep look and said: "Tong Rong, do you really think that I, Nangong Ruo, are idiots? People in Xingyun Pavilion will follow you for no reason, no matter how good your medical skills are, can you still compare to those in Xingyun Pavilion The poisonous old man is clever, if he hadn't got involved with the Xingyun Pavilion, the ghost would believe it."

"I don't know anyone from Xingyun Pavilion, I just need to leave the city for urgent business."

"Ye Jingyi." He was startled by his sudden roar, and then he lowered his voice and said, "If you tell the truth, maybe I can help you."

He lowered his head, his thoughts were spinning, his behavior of going out of the city overnight was indeed suspicious, if it was said that he had nothing to do with Xingyun Pavilion, no one would believe it.This Xingyun Pavilion has aroused the anger of the emperor today, and everyone in the court knows, and if he is implicated, he may bring a lot of trouble to the Ye family, his eyes turned around, so he sighed softly: " I have seen the true face of the former prince Jiang Yu."

The suspicion in Nangong Ruo's eyes dissipated instantly, replaced by a look of deep thought, "When did it happen?"

"Three years ago, I was gathering medicine on the mountain. In the cave where I was captured, Jiang Yu confessed to several men in black about assassinating the prince. I saw his true face."

Nangong Ruo recalled that there was indeed an assassination of the crown prince three years ago. At that time, the entire Xizhou City knew about this major event, but was blocked by Chu Yun's subordinates, and the assassination was not successful in the end. Ye Jingyi may have discovered their secret place in a place well known to Yiren, so the cave is most likely abandoned, and Jiang Yu's true face was seen by him, so it is true for Xingyun Pavilion if he does not kill him. is a big deal.

"After dawn, I will send someone to tell the Minister of Rites that you will live in my Ruoling Palace from now on. The people in the Xingyun Pavilion will be cleaned by me, and I will be responsible for your safety. In the end." When he said these words, his brows frowned almost imperceptibly.

After he finished speaking, he walked out of the living room and returned to his room, because the abdominal wound started to hurt again.

After running around all night, Ye Jingyi was very tired, but she followed Jueyun to the Ye Mansion. As expected, she heard Wei Lu crying and screaming when she entered the gate of Ye Mansion.

"You heartless thing, I married you when you were penniless, but you beat me for a wild girl of unknown origin, and even took my money to give to that wild girl. I can't live this day, I can't live this day..."

Ye Ziyu on the side lowered her head in silence, as if she was letting you make trouble, while Ye Yixue was comforting her mother while observing her father's expression, when she saw Ye Jingyi and Jue When Yun appeared, Wei Lu quickly stood up from the chair, and yelled at Ye Jingyi, "Wild girl, hand over the money."

Ye Jingyi took out the stack of bank notes from her pocket and handed them to Wei Lu, while Ye Ziyu asked anxiously, "Why haven't you left the city yet?"

Jue Yun on the side said: "Lord Ye, Miss Ye will live in the fourth prince's mansion from now on. The fourth prince is responsible for her safety. After all, it involves the matter of the former prince, and the matter of the Xingyun Pavilion has always been the responsibility of the fourth prince." Responsible, I hope Master Ye will forgive me."

Ye Ziyu glanced at Ye Jingyi, and Ye Jingyi gave Ye Ziyu a reassuring look with subtle movements, and Ye Ziyu understood it, so she didn't go any further.

But Wei Lu and Ye Yixue on the other side didn't like listening to it. Ye Yixue had always admired Nangong Ruo very much. If it was said who she wanted to marry the most in Xizhou City, there was no other person except Nangong Ruo, because If Nangong didn't have the intention of becoming an emperor, and although King Pan didn't have the power of an emperor, he was also extremely free. Most importantly, he didn't have as many women as the Sangong Sixth Court.

Besides, Nangong Ruo has high martial arts skills, is familiar with poetry and books, and with his handsome and extraordinary appearance, I don't know how many women secretly agree with him.

At this moment, Yixue winked at Wei Lu with an imperceptible expression, and Wei Lu immediately lowered her face and said to Jue Yun: "How can this be, a girl who has not been out of the court, lives in someone's house for nothing, you let Where is the face of our Ye family, and unmarried men and women are unmarried, if they say it, my Ye family will be treated as a laughing stock."

Jueyun glanced at Wei Lu, who was still throwing a fit just now, and said expressionlessly: "The fourth prince's decision, other irrelevant people have no right to interfere."

Wei Lu choked for a moment, rolled her eyes at Ye Jingyi angrily, and said in a low voice, "What a bastard."

In this way, Ye Jingyi moved into the residence of the Fourth Prince Nan Gongruo.
