Xiao Xingyu said it was impossible, but he had already confirmed it in his heart. Many of his doubts along the way could be explained, but he didn't know why his father did this. Xiao Xingyu felt that there might be someone Sowing discord!

But what Ji Feng said was true. Xiao Xingyu took a deep breath and said, "Get up, don't mention this matter again. The person who stopped you was not the one who chased and killed me along the way. I already know the identity of that person. Luo Sa who is next to Brother Huang was the one who wanted to kill me when he was at Banbupo."

Seeing that he didn't care about it, Ji Feng had no choice but to obey his orders and stand up, and then said: "Your Highness, Your Majesty even asked your subordinates to pass on the message."

When Xiao Xingyu heard that it was his mother and concubine who had asked someone to bring the message, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he said, "Tell me."

Ji Feng said: "Your Majesty said, please take care of yourself, Your Highness. If you can't return to the capital, please rest assured, Your Majesty will take care of the affairs in the capital and protect the safety of the two little Highnesses. Your Highness doesn't have to worry."

"How can you not worry?"

Xiao Xingyu said with a sleepy expression, he also missed his mother and concubine whom he had not seen for a long time, and those two ghostly brothers and sisters who often liked to chatter behind him, but he couldn't go back yet.

Ji Feng asked: "Is Your Highness going back to Beijing?"

Xiao Xingyu shook his head resolutely, "Since my father arranged for me to go to Yangzhou, I have to go, even if I die, I will die in Yangzhou. It's just that I still have some things to do, and I'm afraid the trip to Yangzhou will have to be postponed for a while." slow."

Xiao Xingyu suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "Ji Feng, when you came out, did you notice anything unusual about Lao Qi?"

"Since the solution to the drought, the emperor has gained the hearts of the people, and there are no major affairs in the court. He should be busy dealing with His Royal Highness, and Yin Shangshu, the father of Concubine Yin. Recently, the emperor seems to have started to suppress the Yin family."

"Other than that?" Xiao Xingyu asked, "Did Lao Qi send someone to Jiangnan to find someone?"

Ji Feng said: "The subordinates don't know, it's just that Mr. Yan Moyan who is beside the emperor has gone to Jiangnan in the past few days, it seems that the emperor ordered some secret mission."

Xiao Xingyu's heart trembled when he heard that name, if he came... Even if he came, he would never want to snatch Xie Rulan away from him.

Now that Xiao Qian has already started to deal with the Yin family, it will not be long before Xie Rulan is brought back to the palace. Xiao Xingyu thought in his heart that he must protect Xie Rulan and never let him suffer that fate again in this life.

Ji Feng finished speaking and said: "Your Highness, what else is there to do? Even if you tell your subordinates, your subordinates can't do things for His Highness. I really feel uneasy."

Xiao Xingyu didn't have anything to tell him, so he asked some more important things, and then said: "How is Gu Pan?"

Ji Feng said: "Young Master Gu is still the same."

Xiao Xingyu nodded, after thinking about it, he felt that his head was really not enough, so he asked Ji Feng with a sad face: "Ji Feng, you said, this king had a fight with someone before, and it was my attitude that was wrong. Then he left without saying goodbye, although I followed him all the way, but now he has returned home, his house is very guarded, how can I find him?"

Ji Feng was silent for a while, and then asked: "The person His Highness mentioned, is the future princess?"

Xiao Xingyu nodded with some guilty conscience, and Ji Feng said: "Then why didn't His Highness come to the door to make an apology in person? Maybe His Highness is more careful, and the girl will forgive His Highness."

"........."

Xiao Xingyu was at a loss for words, he thought it better not to ask, sighed, sat down and picked up the tea bowl, and said depressedly: "You should tell me what happened in Beijing recently."

The matter that Zhong Yue was asked to investigate soon found out the details.

Fengxuelou is a well-known gang in Jinling. It was established by the old landlord Duan Cheng back then, and its forces occupied half of Jinling. Even if the people in Fengxuelou are rampant in Jinling City, no one dares to control them.And Duan Lingyan was the daughter of Duan Cheng, the previous building owner, and Duan Cheng had only one daughter, so Duan Lingyan was married for a few years, and after Duan Cheng passed away, Fengxue Tower was in charge of Duan Lingyan's senior brothers.

After Duan Cheng passed away, he handed over Fengxue Building to Duan Lingyan's elder brother Jiang Yun, but Jiang Yun passed away suddenly a year ago, and it is unknown who killed him, so the person acting as the landlord temporarily is Duan Cheng's second brother. Disciple Chen Qianfan, and when Chen Qianfan can become the landlord depends on when he can catch the person who killed Jiang Yun and avenge Jiang Yun.

As for Xie Rulan, it took Zhong Yue a long time to find out his identity in Fengxue Tower.

Xie Rulan's alias is Xie Ning, and he is the only grandson of the old landlord, so he has a detached status in the building. Jiang Yun once regarded him as the venerable of Fengxue Tower, and his status will definitely not be lower than that of the other disciples.

So that day when Xiao Xingyu saw Xie Rulan entering Fengxue Tower, the disciples in front of the door would respectfully salute him.

Xiao Xingyu was even more troubled after learning the details. Xie Rulan was also considered a high-level person in Fengxue Tower, how could he go in and find someone?As Ji Feng said, visiting at home is definitely not allowed.Fengxuelou can be regarded as Xie Rulan's other home, so he must have had a good two years.

The more he knew that he was supposed to be safe, the more uneasy Xiao Xingyu felt in his heart. If this was the case, why did Xie Rulan leave in such a hurry?Could it be that something happened to Fengxue Tower?

Xiao Xingyu was eager to see Xie Rulan, and when Ji Feng came, he thought that everything should be taken care of by Ji Feng for the time being, but how could he enter Fengxue Building to find Xie Rulan without letting him find out , but he wanted to be by Xie Rulan's side...

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in front of his eyes, and Xiao Xingyu called Ji Feng, his eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Ji Feng, do me a favor..."

I don't know what he discussed. Later, Ji Feng took over a lot of affairs, but Xiao Xingyu and Zhong Yue never appeared in the courtyard they rented.

Not long after Xie Rulan returned to her residence in Fengxue Building, she changed into black clothes, her face became paler, her brows were slightly frowned, as if she was enduring some pain, the stool under her seat was still warm, and the door Someone knocked on it, followed by the crisp and soft voice of a child, which sounded particularly innocent.

"Thank you brother, thank you brother! I'm Huan'er, have you come back yet?"

Xie Rulan's face sank, and another friendly male voice sounded outside the door——

"A'Ning, Huan'er heard that you are back, and will come to see you soon, are you in the house?"

Xie Rulan got up slowly after hearing the words, and opened the door. Several people came in front of his room. It was a very young middle-aged man, holding a four-year-old boy in one hand, looking very kind and friendly .

As soon as Xie Rulan came out, the child jumped on Xie Rulan happily, and shouted with joy on his small face: "Brother Xie! You are back!"

The little boy was chubby, his face was like a steamed bun, and his two snow-white hands were also soft. Xie Rulan laughed when he saw it, bent down to hug the child, and said with a smile : "Huan'er gained weight again."

Jiang Huan frowned when he heard the words, grabbed Xie Rulan's lapel angrily and said, "Brother Xie, don't say that Huan'er is fat!"

Seeing this, the middle-aged man beside him laughed out loud, looking at Xie Rulan with a gleam in his eyes, and said, "Huan'er has sunk a lot in the past few months, but it's just a child, it grows very fast. You, Aning, you have been away for so long before you come back, Huan'er is always arguing to find brother Xie."

The person who spoke was none other than Xie Rulan's mother's second senior brother, Chen Qianfan, and the child he brought, named Jiang Huan, was the son of Jiang Yun, the former landlord who was plotted to die suddenly last year.

Xie Rulan slowly put Jiang Huan down, his expression was very pale, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was in poor health, but Chen Qianfan didn't ask a word, obviously he already knew the reason.

Xie Rulan pursed her lips and looked at Chen Qianfan, but her eyes were full of vigilance, and he said: "I made the second uncle worry, Huaner didn't cause trouble for the uncle, right?"

Chen Qianfan still smiled and said: "What did you say, Huan'er is also my senior nephew, and the only child of my senior brother. It is only natural for me to take care of him. How can it be called trouble?"

The child naturally couldn't hear the tit-for-tat between the two adults. When he heard Xie Rulan say this, he thought it was Xie Rulan who disliked him, so he pouted and said childishly, "Thank you brother for being bad! Go out and play without wearing a ring. , but also think Huaner is troublesome!"

She was on the verge of crying, Xie Rulan has been the closest to Jiang Huan since she came to Fengxue Tower, seeing him like this, she could only hold him helplessly and coax him: "I don't dislike Huan'er, why do you always like to think about it? That much, huh?"

Nodding Jiang Huan's nose, the child saw that Xie Rulan was deliberately teasing him, and hugged Xie Rulan with his mouth flattened and acted coquettishly, "But brother Xie said that Huan'er is fat..."

But this child is indeed fat... Xie Rulan couldn't laugh or cry, and suddenly his abdomen started to hurt again. He had no choice but to put Jiang Huan on the ground, enduring the pain in his abdomen and coaxing the child softly: "Huan'er is the best, brother Xie." I still have something to say to my uncle, can you go and play first?"

Jiang Huan didn't really want to go, he just wanted to play with Brother Xie, so he kept his mouth shut and refused to leave, Xie Rulan said again: "Brother Xie came back in a hurry, I didn't bring you a gift, I will take you out to play tomorrow when I have time ,OK?"

Xie Rulan just thought that most of the children wanted gifts, but he was really in a hurry to come back and didn't prepare anything, but when Jiang Huan heard that he could play with brother Xie tomorrow, he thought nothing of it and laughed again He nodded and said, "Brother Xie, you have to remember! You must take Huan'er out to play tomorrow! Huan'er still wants to eat candied haws and cakes..."

As he said, he counted the snacks he liked with his fingers. Xie Rulan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, so he could only respond one by one. Uncle and brother Xie are busy first, you go out to play with senior brother."

As he spoke, he glanced at a disciple behind him, and the disciple immediately understood, and led the little Jiang Huan away from Xie Rulan's residence.

Xie Rulan obviously wanted to let Chen Qianfan talk, and Chen Qianfan probably guessed what he was going to say. At this time, the idlers and others went down, and Xie Rulan said bluntly: "Master Chen deliberately brought Huaner to me to remind me Don't act rashly?"

Chen Qianfan still had a gentle smile on his face, but he was not angry or annoyed when faced with Xie Rulan's sneering questions. He even stretched out his hand to signal Xie Rulan to sit down in the room first, and said with an innocent smile: "Why did you say that, Ah Ning?" ? It was clearly Huaner who wanted to see you, so I brought him here."

"Now there is no one else, Master Chen doesn't need to beat around the bush, just speak up."

Xie Rulan also sat down and said face to face.

Chen Qianfan still looked innocent, even poured a cup of tea for him, sipped it leisurely, and said with a smile: "I still think that Ah Ning has been away for three months, and I'm afraid he won't come back."

Xie Rulan sneered and said: "Master, I'm worrying too much. Huan'er is still in your hands, how dare I go away and never return? Master..."

Xie Rulan paused for a moment, squinted slightly at the tea that Chen Qianfan was about to drink, and said slowly: "Master is so reassuring to me, are you not afraid that I will put medicine in the tea?"

Chen Qianfan stopped for a moment when he was about to drink tea, and then slowly put down the teacup, the smile on his face disappeared, Chen Qianfan said: "I believe that Ah Ning is not such a person, not to mention that as you said, Huan'er is still It's in my hands. But now, it seems that Aning is the one who asks for it."

He smiled lowly again, looked at Xie Rulan's frowning brows, and asked him maliciously: "My good nephew, doesn't it feel good to be heartbroken?"

Chen Qianfan just stayed in Xie Rulan's room for a cup of tea, and then left soon.

Xie Rulan seemed to have to compromise during the conversation with him. Chen Qianfan finally handed him a bottle of medicine. After taking it, Xie Rulan's abdominal pain improved a lot. It's just that he was exhausted physically and mentally from the busyness of the past few days. fell asleep.

After waking up the next day, Xie Rulan was woken up by Jiang Huan early in the morning, recalling the promise she made yesterday, Xie Rulan had to take Jiang Huan out of Fengxue Tower.

The child Jiang Huan is only four years old this year, and his chubby appearance is as beautiful as the boy in the Avalokitesvara statue. His smile is even more mellow and cute, and his speech is soft and waxy. Thank you brother one by one, It's so sweet to the heart.

Chen Qianfan sent someone to follow behind Xie Rulan, Xie Rulan didn't care, and walked down the street holding Jiang Huan's little hand, but after walking for a short while, Jiang Huan said aggrievedly that he was tired, and asked Xie Rulan to carry him away. Biting the candied haws that Xie Rulan bought for him, he was still coquettish with Xie Rulan.

"Thank you brother, Huan'er wants to eat cake~"

Xie Rulan had nothing to do with children, so she could only respond well and asked the little disciple who followed all the way to buy them. The two sat under the willow tree by the river and waited for a long time. It was sticky, but the young man who was holding him was smiling so nicely that even the boatman passing by on a boat was stunned.

When the two disciples bought pastries and came back, Jiang Huan and Xie Rulan were looking at lotus flowers. The blossoming pink stamens were hidden in a green umbrella, and occasionally a golden carp swam by. On a quiet summer day, the willow branches on the bank were blown by the breeze. At the end is a beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River.

It's just that beauties are more delicate than lotus flowers.

The disciple behind him was stunned for a moment, only to recover after being pushed by his fellow disciple beside him, he delivered the pastries he bought to Xie Rulan.

It was noon now, Xie Rulan's complexion was much better than yesterday's, but she was still a little pale, so the disciple reminded: "Your Majesty is not feeling well, why don't you go back to the building to rest earlier."

It's all right if he doesn't speak, Xie Rulan only thinks that he is Chen Qianfan's lackey sent to monitor him, but when he speaks, the familiar voice makes Xie Rulan stunned, and then looks at the disciple seriously, who looks like An ordinary appearance, very young, not ugly, but not half as handsome as that person.

Xie Rulan shook her head, thinking that she was thinking too much. Just at this moment, Jiang Huan in her arms yawned, and her eyelids seemed to be drooping at any time, so I stopped pestering him to play, Xie Rulan Guessing that he was tired, he also felt that what the disciple said made sense, so he got up and went back with Jiang Huan in his arms.

It's just that he took two steps just now, when the disciple who spoke just now chased him up again, and said very courteously: "Your Honor, let the disciple come and hug the young master."

Xie Rulan couldn't help but look at this person more, then frowned and shook her head, said no need indifferently, and walked towards Fengxue Tower.

The two disciples behind him still followed him closely, and Xie Rulan waved them away after entering the Fengxue Building.After sending the sleeping Jiang Huan back to his room and settling him down, Xie Rulan returned to his residence, but just in front of the courtyard gate, he saw the disciple who had nothing to do and was so courteous just now.

The man was sneaking around in front of his yard, not knowing what to do, and when Xie Rulan came back, he didn't find it, and he was still leaning on the edge of the courtyard door to look into the house. Xie Rulan suddenly coughed lightly with a sullen face, and the man was taken aback. Jump, then turned around and hastily saluted Xie Rulan, his movements were a bit jerky.

"The disciple has seen the Venerable!"

It is easy to distinguish their identities in Fengxue Tower. The outer disciples are dressed in gray clothes, the inner disciples are dressed in green shirts, and the elders are dressed in blue robes. As for the Venerable Xie Rulan, he is used to wearing black robes .

At this moment, the disciple in front of him was wearing a green shirt, and he should be a disciple of an elder, but Xie Rulan felt that he was unfamiliar, but there was no doubt, there were hundreds of people in Fengxue Tower, Xie Rulan couldn't possibly know everyone.

It's just that this person is too sneaky, so Xie Rulan can't help feeling a little wary.

"Who are you? What are you doing sneakily here?"

His voice was so cold and hard that the disciple immediately knelt down in fright, lowered his head and hurriedly explained: "This disciple is a disciple of Elder Wu, and the Venerable is not feeling well, so the acting master ordered the disciple to come here to take care of the Venerable... It's just that the venerable didn't come back just now, and the disciple was anxious..."

"On behalf of the landlord?"

It was the first time Chen Qianfan sent someone over, so he had to call someone to monitor him. Xie Rulan thought to himself, it was impossible for him to ask Chen Qianfan for an explanation because of this.

So he didn't care about that disciple anymore, just saw him enter the room, the young disciple climbed up and followed him, and when he sat down, he came over and poured tea for him with both hands.

"My lord drinks tea."

Xie Rulan: "..."

This person is really too considerate. His venerable is just a decoration in Fengxue Tower. Usually, his disciples are polite to him, but it is not like this. Xie Rulan took the teacup helplessly, but put it aside, and then Ask the disciple, "What's your name?"

The disciple thought for a while, then lowered his head and said, "Thank you, disciple."

Xie Rulan nodded, and then ordered coldly: "You go back, I don't need anyone to take care of me here."

The disciple who called Xie Qian was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "This is not allowed!" He looked at Xie Rulan, his eyes were extremely lively and beautiful, and he explained: "On behalf of the landlord, arrange disciples to take care of the venerable, How dare the disciple not obey?"

Xie Rulan generally understood his difficulties, but he didn't need others to take care of him, so he could only say: "Then you go out, and just guard in the courtyard."

"……Yes."

The disciple seemed to be very reluctant to agree, and when Xie Rulan's eyes swept over and wanted to urge him to leave, he slowly retreated as if reluctant to part, and did not forget to remind him again: "The venerable must remember, If there is something to do, you must call your disciples!"

Even if Xin Dao called him, what would be the use?Xie Rulan was amused in her heart, and finally the man went out, Xie Rulan breathed a sigh of relief, and her whole body relaxed.

If it wasn't for that person's voice just now, he might have forgotten that there was another person left behind by him in Yunzhou, but he didn't know what happened to that person now, Xie Rulan actually felt a little missing in his heart.

The author has something to say:

When I read Qian, I don’t know how to type the words, so I just _(:зゝ∠)_

There were previously saved manuscripts that would be updated earlier, but now they are gone... Hurry up and urge me, otherwise I will be addicted to Onmyoji again and stop coding (because I got Ibaraki and Yaodao Ji hahahahahahahahahahahaha
