[Jian Wang III] Prosperous Tang Dynasty

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Shangyuan Festival.

This is the first festival after the official end of the troubled times. Both the emperor and the people attach great importance to it. On this day, every household hangs up beautiful lanterns and decorates everywhere.

Brightly colored lanterns were also hung in the prime minister's mansion, and the maids and guards in the mansion had new clothes, which looked very festive.

At sunset, Chen Yue put on a pink and purple winter dress, and planned to drag Su Jixian out for a walk together, who had stayed in the bedroom for several days.

Su Jixian sat on the bed and hugged the quilt, refusing to move, "There are too many people on the Lantern Festival Street, it's crowded, so I don't want to go."

"But brother, you haven't gone out for three days, do you want to get moldy?" Chen Yue grabbed a corner of the quilt and pulled it out forcefully, even though the quilt was still motionless, she still persisted in pulling.

"It won't get moldy." Su Jixian said lazily, "I've been fighting for so long, why don't you let me rest in my room..."

"How long have you been resting! You haven't stepped out of the bedroom since you returned to Chang'an!" Chen Yue continued to tug at his quilt, "Walk with me!"

"Didn't you say you don't like shopping with me?"

"That was before, but now I like it, you haven't even walked the streets with me."

"Isn't Ye Xuan here to accompany you?"

"He is him, you are you, it's different. Get up, just go out, Ye Xuan has booked a banquet at Hu Yulou, it's a waste if you don't go."

Chen Yue was soft and stubborn, Su Jixian had nothing to do with her, so he could only let go, "Okay, okay, I'll go out with you, I'll change clothes first, you wait outside."

"Okay." Chen Yue let go of the quilt and went out to the outer room to wait for him.

Su Jixian squinted his eyes and rubbed the pillow, slowly lifted the quilt and got up to get dressed.

After a while, Su Jixian put on his clothes and came out, Chen Yue tugged at his sleeve and asked, "Where's Lu Lingfeng?"

"He's in the study, just ask someone to call him." Su Jixian hugged Yuan Xiao and said, "Is that all you wear?"

"I'll add another one when I hit the street later."

When Chen Yue dragged Su Jixian and the whole family left the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was already completely dark.

There is no wind and no moon tonight, the lights are bright, and Jinghua is already a sea of ​​lights.

Su Jixian was in the top private room on the third floor of Hu Yulou, leaning against the window and looking at the crowds of beings outside the window, his white porcelain face was covered with a layer of warm light by the lantern, and the clear and dark peach blossom eyes reflected the stars and lights, It seems that his eyes have also become the night sky, gathering the fiery trees and silver flowers of the whole Chang'an in it, forming a continuous picture scroll of the flourishing age.

He smiled, with a shallow and gentle smile, slowly raised one hand, stretched out his slender five fingers, vainly covering the scene in front of him, and then tightened his five fingers, as if holding the elegance of the entire capital.

"What are you looking at?" Lu Lingfeng leaned against him, resting her chin on his shoulder, lying on his body like a cat.

"It feels like I haven't seen such a grand occasion for many years." Su Jixian withdrew his hand and gently rubbed his cheek.

"This year has just ended the three-year war, and there are still relatively few Shangyuan lanterns." Lu Lingfeng took his hand, pinching his palm every time, "The Shangyuan Festival will be even more grand in the future, and I will accompany you to watch it every year." Lantern?"

Su Jixian smiled softly, "Yes."

"Don't stand there anymore, be careful of catching a cold." Chen Yue sat at the table and waved to them, "The dishes are all delivered, come and eat——Ye Xuan will put the mutton later."

"Oh." Ye Xuan took the plate containing the mutton slices away from the hot pot and put it away, and sat obediently with an innocent expression.

Su Jixian and Lu Lingfeng sat at the table, soup was gurgling in the steaming hot mandarin duck pot, and a plate of fish balls had just been put in.

"It smells so good," Su Jixian picked up the bowl and took a chopstick of cabbage, "It seems that the ingredients in the bottom of the pot are very good."

"That's right, the broth is carefully boiled, and many seasonings are from the Western Regions." Ye Xuan smiled and ate the small crispy meat, "It's very different from the taste in the house, but it's all the same delicious."

"Well, the mutton here is delicious." Chen Yue also echoed, "Brother, you also said to bring me to taste Hu Yulou's mutton, but it's a pity that you left Chang'an before you tasted it, and now you can try it. "

Lu Lingfeng picked up a piece of mutton, and the thinly sliced ​​mutton glowed with crystal luster under the light, almost transparent, and after being passed through the pot once, it turned pink, "Take a taste and see if it suits your taste."

After dipping some of the prepared sauce, Su Jixian rolled up the sliced ​​meat and ate it whole, nodded, "Mmm, it's delicious."

The picky eater Master Su nodded, and Chen Yue started eating with confidence, "The blood sausage here is also delicious, bro..."

"Just eat the blood sausage." Su Jixian expressed his gratitude.

The three big men on the table love to eat meat, so there are a lot of meat dishes. Chen Yue likes cabbage and mushrooms, and most of them fall into her bowl.

While they were happily eating here, a carriage entered the city gate in a low-key manner.

There was no curfew in Chang'an City, and the carriage entered the city smoothly.

"The city seems to be very lively," came a clear and cold voice from the carriage, like the snowy water in early spring, "Is there any celebration?"

"It should be the Shangyuan Lantern Festival." The young man driving the car replied, "Can the owner get out of the car and have a look?"

"No, just go directly to another courtyard."

"Yes."

The carriage continued to move forward, walking slowly among the crowd.

In the carriage, Ye Ying, the owner of Cangjian Villa, was sitting upright, listening to the noise outside.

The three years of war did not make the people suffer for too long, and everyone still had hope for the days to come, and the noise of the roaring sky was full of joy.

Ye Ying smiled slightly when she heard such a voice.

"Bang——" the gorgeous fireworks exploded in the night sky, the fireworks were dazzling, and the light spots like falling stars slid down the sky, dragging a long arc of light, and disappeared at the end of the night.

The crowd stopped, and they all stopped and looked up at the fireworks. There was a flash of light in their eyes. It was a sky full of lights and a light full of hope for the future.

"Ye Huan, stop for a moment." Ye Ying said suddenly, her beautiful brows were slightly frowned, and she listened carefully.

Ye Huanle stopped the carriage and waited quietly for orders.

Ye Ying listened for a while, pushed the carriage door and got out of the car, and walked to the side of the street.

He was wearing a black cloak, the hood covered half of his face, and there were a few strands of snow-white hair hanging from the hood, but the small half of his face that he could only see was amazing, and his walking posture was free and elegant. You can see the golden hem under the cloak, and it doesn't look like a person who has lost his eyesight.

He walked out of the crowd on the street, his figure gradually disappeared into the darkness, and walked into a remote alley.

He stopped at the entrance of the alley, as if he was at the intersection of two worlds, with the noisy voices behind him and the gloomy silence in front of him.

After listening carefully, Ye Ying continued to walk forward, not in a hurry, but at a very fast speed, like a wind blowing past, causing a slight chill.

There were two people in a hurry in the alley, one of them seemed to be carrying something in his hand, Ye Ying flashed and stopped in front of them.

His movement was so dexterous and erratic that the two of them were taken aback. Then without saying a word, the sword flashed!

The short knife came out of its sheath and made a humming sound, and the sharp blade pierced through the darkness and slashed at it quickly. Ye Ying didn't move a step, and raised her right hand with fingers together as a sword.

He also only raised his hand, and the wide sleeved robe fluttered, and in an instant, tens of thousands of sword energy turned into a sharp sword of a magic soldier, and he slapped him head-on like a storm!

Not everyone can resist the gesture of the number one master of Tibetan swords. The two who met each other spat out a mouthful of blood, their bodies were lifted high by the strong sword energy, and they smashed against the wall like a kite with a broken string.

And the things they carried in their hands had already fallen into the hands of Ye Huan who happened to catch up.

"Big Manor," Ye Huan kicked the person who was trying to escape back to the wall, and moved to Ye Ying's side, "It's a child."

"how old?"

Ye Huan looked down at the sleeping child, "Looks like two or three years old."

"Tie them up first, and send them to the government later."

"Yes." Ye Huan nodded, and was about to pick up the two with the child in his arms when he suddenly paused and said in a surprised voice, "Master, they are dead! They seem to have taken poison!"

Ye Ying was also startled for a moment, and after pondering for a moment, said: "Then send a letter to Mrs. Su and let him see what's going on..."

"Huh—" There was a very slight sound of clothes ripping through the air from the wall next to it, Ye Huan didn't notice it, Ye Ying slightly turned her head towards the direction of the sound.

"Lord Ye Dazhuang?" A delicate woman's voice sounded from the darkness, and the gray-clothed man squatting on the wall clasped his fists, "The following is the hidden guard of the Su family. Just now, the master saw some movement upstairs, so he sent his servants to investigate. But what happened?"

There are many families surnamed Su in the world, but only Su Jixian's family can raise such outstanding hidden guards.

"Yeah." Ye Ying responded softly, "I found two people abducting a child, and I wanted to tie them to the government just now, but they have already died of poisoning. This is not an ordinary human trafficker, so I want your master to take a look, don't Some important clue was missed."

Hearing this, Yinwei Fuling turned her head and whistled somewhere, made several gestures, then turned her head and continued to say to Ye Ying: "My master is having dinner at Hu Yulou, and Master Ye is also with him?"

Ye Ying nodded.

"Please come down with me." Fu Ling took Ye Ying and Ye Huan to Hu Yulou not far away, and several black shadows flashed from the dark place and landed beside the two corpses.

Fu Ling took them through a special passage, and there were almost no people along the way, and they soon arrived at Su Jixian's private room.

"The master is safe and sound, will the journey be smooth?"

"Master~Father!"

"The great master."

"Master Lao is concerned, everything is fine." Ye Ying pulled down her hood, patted the head of little apprentice Ye Xuan, and then patted Chen Yue's head, "Did Xuan'er cause you any trouble?"

Chen Yue shook her head, "Ye Xuan is very good, very steady."

After Su Jixian listened to Fuling's report, he whispered some instructions to Lu Lingfeng, and when he turned around and saw the child in Ye Huan's hand, his eyes widened slightly, "Yang Tian?"

Ye Ying turned her face away, "Do you know this child?"

"Well, it's General Yang Ning's child." Su Jixian took the child from Ye Huan's arms and pinched his wrist to feel his pulse, "It seems that this is not a simple kidnapping of a child...Fu Ling, go find Mrs. Yang and take her Bring me here."

"Yes."

Su Jixian looked down at the sleeping Yang Tian, ​​frowning slightly.
