Zhao Yu got very drunk at Ji Ran's place that day, his beautiful eyes were so red that they could almost wring out water, but he always smiled and didn't cry bitterly.Ji Ran was very worried. He originally wanted someone to help him go to the passenger compartment to rest, but he was firmly rejected by the other party. He stumbled with his left foot and left with his right foot, staggering away, waving away all intentions. The person who helped in front of him.

Ji Ran kept sending Zhao Yu out of the house, and saw him get into the carriage, so he returned home with confidence.Originally, he wanted to secretly tell Bai Muyan about the other party's joining the army, but after some consideration, he gave up the idea. Even though he couldn't bear to see Zhao Yu like this, other people can't meddle in matters of affection. Good to have done something wrong.

But Bai Muyan got married...

Why is there no news about such a big event?

Could it be some misunderstanding?

Ji Ran thought about it, sighed and shook his head, it was only when Lu Zhen came back from the palace that he finally knew what was going on.

"What? Marriage from the emperor?" After hearing the news that Lu Zhen brought back from the palace, Ji Ran was speechless for a while before recovering his voice, "He is addicted to being a matchmaker, so he messes up the couples without asking people's wishes? This ... What is Bai Xiang's reaction, did you agree to marry that princess?" Thinking of Zhao Yu's painful appearance, Ji Ran felt that the emperor was simply the Queen Mother of the West who beat mandarin ducks, and the matchmaker was too unreliable!

"Princess Ziyi, daughter of King Wei." Lu Zhen said.

"I don't care about his purple clothes and white clothes!" After being excited, he sighed again, "Forget it, the emperor bestowed a marriage, that's a certainty, there's no use for us to worry about it here, in this case, it's a good thing for Zhao Yu to leave."

Lu Zhen covered Ji Ran's head with one palm, and patted it like coaxing a child, "Zhao Yu can't leave."

"Huh?" Ji Ran was taken aback when he heard the words, "Why? Do you know anything?"

"If Bai Muyan was so easy to be manipulated by others, she wouldn't have dragged on until now." Lu Zhen slid her hand to Ji Ran's shoulder, "Don't worry about other people's affairs."

Ji Ran nodded, thought for a while and then asked doubtfully, "One prince, one prime minister, the two families are related by marriage, the emperor is not afraid, but instead grants marriage?"

"King Wei is just a king with a different surname who has no real power, and this marriage is not what the emperor wants to bestow." Lu Zhen shook his head, pulled Ji Ran to sit down at the table, and poured tea for him, " After talking for a long time, drink some water to moisten your throat."

Ji Ran rolled his eyes, but still took a sip from the water glass, "It's not the emperor's claim, what's going on?"

"What else is going on, the old man of the Bai family asked for it himself." Lu Zhen snorted inexplicably, "Although this Princess Ziyi is a descendant, she was born blind, and the eldest son of King Wei died a long time ago. There are many wives and concubines, except for an eight-year-old concubine, who have nothing to do. What's the use of being a prince, who doesn't even have a hereditary heir, such a family, what should the emperor be afraid of, this old man Bai begged himself, the emperor But it’s all about pushing the boat with the flow and selling a favor with the flow.”

Ji Ran held the water glass for a long while, then put it back slowly, "Dad Bai Xiang, you're a fool."

Lu Zhen also shook her head and sighed, "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite."

Ji Ran understood in no time, it was nothing more than the little things in the back house, this Bai Muyan was the head of the family and the face of the country, but he couldn't get rid of the back house's calculations, this ancient wealthy family was really not as complicated as one or two!I just don't know how this Bai Muyan will solve this predicament.

But since it was a misunderstanding...

Ji Ran was a little hesitant, "Say about Zhao Yu's joining the army, should we tell Bai Muyan that if this person leaves tomorrow, Bai Muyan's troubles will be useless?"

Lu Zhen just smiled and said nothing.

"What do you mean?" Ji Ran was puzzled by his smile.

"We don't need us." Lu Zhen said, "As for Bai Muyan's friendship with the Zhao family, we can't hide it from him."

Ji Ran was puzzled at first, but soon realized that, as the prime minister of a country, not to mention the Zhao family, I am afraid that there are not many secrets that can be hidden from the other party's eyes.If there is no extraordinary information network and the means of the city government, it is impossible to achieve this position at a young age, and it is still under the condition that someone at home is holding back.

Thinking about this point clearly, Ji Ran didn't bother with that leisurely mind, and completely let go of this matter.Even so, the next morning, he and Lu Zhen went to the Dingbeihou's Mansion early. There was no other reason. This was an agreement with Zhao Yu when they were drinking before. Yes, I have to go this trip.

The carriage stopped outside the gate of Dingbeihou's Mansion, and the two of them didn't intend to bother, they just sat in the carriage and waited.

The two of them didn't wait for long, when the white belly appeared on the horizon, the closed vermilion lacquered gate of the Dingbei Hou Mansion creaked open, and Zhao Yu was seen walking out with a pack on his shoulder and a horse leading him.

Ji Ran kept paying attention to the direction of the gate, so when he saw Zhao Yu coming out, he got out of the carriage and jumped down, waving at him.And Lu Zhen jumped out of the carriage and stood beside Ji Ran.

Zhao Yu smiled when he saw them, waved his hand, and led the horse towards them.

"Really?" Zhao Yu smiled nicely, but it was difficult to hide the darkness and loneliness in the depths of his eyes. He said that he was drunk to relieve his worries. The strange thing is that he vomited yesterday, but his memory was not broken at all, so for Seeing Ji Ran and the others here, apart from being moved, it's not surprising. He stepped forward and hugged Ji Ran, and said, "Farewell brother, we'll see each other again. I don't know when we'll get together again, but I will miss you."

Zhao Yu has been arrogant and domineering since he was a child, and he is not afraid of the sky and the earth, and it is rare for him to be so emotional. This sad mood of parting made him quite uncomfortable, and he punched Ji Ran in the shoulder, and let him go.

"Are you really leaving?" Ji Ran subconsciously glanced at Lu Zhen. Bai Xiang didn't stop him, and he was a little uncertain about what Lu Zhen said before.

"Yeah." Zhao Yu touched the horse's head with a smile. After the horse's nose was smelled, he laughed, pulled the rein and stepped on the stirrup and turned on the horse. Feeling sentimental, just go here, don't send it away..."

"Don't, don't!" Ji Ran hurriedly said, "We're all out now, so I'll see you off later."

"You...you are really troublesome." Zhao Yu said with disgust on his lips, but his smile stiffened by two points, he sighed, and finally he didn't leave regardless.

Ji Ran and Lu Zhen returned to the carriage one after another. The coachman swung the whip and drove the horse, and the wheels rolled. They drove side by side with Zhao Yu, who was riding high on horseback, and walked towards the city gate in silence.

Just walking all the way, Ji Ran opened the curtain and looked out, feeling worried.

"Didn't you say that Bai Muyan would get the news? But according to the situation, it's not like, it's going out of the city gate, and it's too late to save it." The more Ji Ran thought about it, the more he felt that there was no way. He turned to Lu Zhen and said, " How about Brother Zhen, you have quick legs, so you can work harder and make a trip to Xiangfu?"

It's not that Ji Ran has to meddle in other people's affairs, it's really... Seeing Zhao Yu's desolate expression, he couldn't bear it.

But Lu Zhen still shook his head, "Let's not interfere in this matter." Seeing Ji Ran frowned, he hurriedly pulled him into his arms, "These two people have been entangled for a day or two, and it has been going on like this It’s not a solution, and it’s not necessarily a good thing to urge it.”

Ji Ran squinted at Lu Zhen, "I said yesterday that Bai Muyan would know, and today I said it's a good thing. I said Brother Zhen, can you rely on it?"

Lu Zhen didn't argue with him, but patted him on the shoulder soothingly.

Ji Ran had no choice but to withdraw from Lu Zhen's arms. After being bored for a while, he couldn't help but lift the curtain and look at the lonely Zhao Yu outside.

Lu Zhendao, "Our situation is a special situation after all. In fact, although masculinity is prevalent, there are no real men marrying men. Even if two men from a poor family are forced to marry brothers, it is just a low-key move together. Well, it's not that easy for the two of them to be together. The Dingbeihou couple's darlings don't care too much about it, but the Bai family doesn't necessarily care about it. The old man Bai tried his best to ask the emperor to give Bai Muyan a marriage, the scheme is one, and the second is to get rid of Bai Muyan's little thoughts."

Ji Ran felt sympathetic when he heard it, yes, not to mention the ancient times, but also the modern times, wouldn't most families not be able to accept the corruption towards Datong?Hey, it seems that these two people have something to learn.

Thinking of this, Ji Ran couldn't help but feel very fortunate that he met Lu Zhen as soon as he came here, otherwise, with his own inclination, in this feudal ancient times where etiquette is important, he would probably be lonely forever.

No matter how slow you go, you will eventually reach the end.Going to the gate of the city on weekdays feels like a long time away, but today it seems to be here in the blink of an eye.

The gate of the city has been opened, and pedestrians come in and out one after another.

Zhao Yu reined in his horse and stopped when he was still some distance away from the city gate.

As soon as he stopped, Ji Ran and their carriage also stopped with the driver's yell, and at the same time Zhao Yu turned over and jumped off the horse, Ji Ran and Lu Zhen got out of the carriage.

The two got out of the carriage and stood face to face with Zhao Yu, relatively speechless for a while.

Ji Ran wanted to procrastinate for a while, but as time passed, the sky was getting brighter and brighter, and an expectant heart had to accept the reality.Sighing, Ji Ran stepped forward to hug Zhao Yu, patted his back hard, and then let go.

"Take care." Ji Ran looked at Zhao Yu and said after a long time.

Zhao Yu twitched the corner of his mouth and raised a seemingly casual smile, "You too." After saying that, he lowered his head, then raised his head after a while, looked at Ji Ran and Lu Zhen, and then smiled enviously, " You... are very lucky, take good care of it."

After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he stretched the burden on his shoulders, turned around and got on the horse neatly, lowered his head and smiled lightly, "Let's go."

Ji Ran didn't say anything, just nodded with frowned.

Zhao Yu waved his hand pretending to be cool, and then pulled the rein of the horse, "Drive!"

The horse moved in response to the sound, kicked and ran out of the city gate, splashing dust all over the ground.There was a cloud of dust and smoke, and the horse's tail was swaying wantonly, while the blue figure on the horse's back was fading away, casting a decided desolation on the ground in the rising morning light.

Ji Ran stared blankly for a long time at the figure who was flying away with one person and one horse, and when he came back to his senses, the flying dust fell to the ground and died, and the friend who had gone away was left with a bean-sized black spot in the distance.

"Go back." With a sigh, Ji Ran turned around and climbed into the carriage first.

However, as soon as he got into the car, he heard the sound of galloping hoofs in the distance, but in an instant, he came to the front.

Ji Ran's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly opened the curtain and poked his head out.
