A glance at the spring breeze

Yin Jian and the ministers climbed Songshan Mountain for most of the day, and when they finally returned to the camp, it was almost dark.

The burning afterglow dyed the clouds and mountains in front of me red.

Manager Zhang has already prepared hot water for Yin Jian to wash and change clothes.

While taking a bath, Yin Jian closed his eyes and leaned his head on the tub. After a while, he asked Manager Zhang who was not far away through the mist: "Yun Sheng, what did Ruan Lan do today?"

Mr. Zhang said: "Go back to Your Majesty, my lord went out to the woods for a walk today."

Yin Xian just wanted to say why Ruan Lan was so leisurely and elegant today, when Manager Zhang continued: "Your Excellency also brought back a woman."

"A woman?" Yin Jian suddenly raised his eyebrows, opened his eyes and turned his head, "What woman?"

"I don't know who the slave is...but the woman said that she came from the capital and came here to find her fiancée. Master Ruan Lan brought her back after hearing this."

Looking for her fiancé and son-in-law to find Ruan Lan?

Yin Jian was startled, and immediately stood up in the bucket, picked up the outer robe at the side and put it on his body.He walked up to Mr. Zhang in two or three steps, and said with a serious expression: "Follow me to find Ruan Lan."

"Yes."

As soon as Yin Jian put on his clothes and was about to set off, he saw Ruan Lan walking hurriedly from a distance, and was stopped by the guards in front of his camp.

"Let him in." Yin Xian ordered the guard.

"Your Majesty." Ruan Lan stepped forward and bowed to him as a salute.

Yin Jian was very calm, although he wanted to ask the woman who came to Songshan to find her fiancée, but he just asked lightly: "I see you are in a hurry, but do you have something important to tell me?" ?”

The brown and black pupils in Ruan Lan's eyes flashed suddenly, and he nodded solemnly, "There is indeed something important to report."

"Then come in and talk." Yin Jian turned and walked towards the tent, and said to Mr. Zhang next to him, "Make a pot of tea."

The emperor's tent is larger than that of ordinary officials, and it is the tallest among all the tents during this trip, and the tent accommodates more space than other people's. Ruan Lan looked around and followed behind Yin Xian He found a chair and sat down, then asked, "Does your majesty still remember how he left the palace on the night of your majesty's birthday?"

"Remember." Yin Jian recalled for a moment, and said to him: "You said before that someone who is proficient in disguise disguised you into someone else's appearance, and then mixed with the theater troupe, which made you overwhelmed by the palace guards."

Ruan Lan said: "Exactly. During the day today, Director Zhang and I went outside the tent and accidentally rescued a woman."

"Oh?" Yin Jian pretended to be ignorant, but continued to ask, "Where did the girl come from?"

"Her name is Qiao Aifen, from the capital city. She said she came to look for her fiancé-in-law. After some inquiries, I found that this woman's fiancé-in-law had a great connection with my escape from the palace that night." Ruan Lan frowned. Wrinkled, eyes narrowed slightly, "That night I pretended to be a mute in the theater troupe and sneaked out of the palace, and the people in the theater troupe called me 'Ashan' at that time. This woman's fiancé-in-law is from this troupe." Ah Shan', however, he is now missing."

Yin Xian repeated secretly: "Missing..." Then he added, "Then, there are only two possibilities left."

"One possibility is that Ah Shan was impersonated by Shen Chunrong from the very beginning, and was hidden or murdered to silence him. The other possibility is... Ah Shan was originally one of Shen Chunrong's accusations. However, the second possibility is extremely low. "

"How to say?"

"I asked Ms. Qiao just now, and she said that their family has been neighbors with Ah Shan's family since more than ten years ago. In the past ten years or so, I haven't been out often, and I have never left the capital, and I have never learned martial arts or disguise. Therefore, I think...it is really unlikely that he is Shen Chunrongzhi... If my guess is right, then it is extremely difficult now. It is possible that Ah Shan has already been silenced by those two disguised people."

Yin Jian lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time, and said: "It's too early to draw conclusions. Shen Chunrong in Jianghu said that I have already sent someone to investigate. I don't know the exact name of Ah Shan, so I can ask the household department to investigate. "

"His surname is Meng, and his first name is Qishan. He who prays for sunshine and rain, the mountain is the mountain of famous mountains and rivers."

Yin Jian said: "So, I will write it down."

After Ruan Lan finished speaking, she didn't intend to get up and leave.He was silent for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty...Miss Qiao will live in my tent today, but lonely men and widows cannot share the same room. I have to find another place to spend the night, so I want to ask Mr. Zhang, now Are there any extra tents?"

Although Manager Zhang is fully responsible for all the chores on Jitian Road, the small things like recording the number of camp accounts have always been assigned to the subordinates.However, the emperor has always prepared enough rations and tents when traveling, and tents are always easy to damage, so he often brings a lot of spares.Ruan Lan was well aware of these, but she still asked one more question out of politeness.

Yin Jian quickly winked at Manager Zhang.

Director Zhang immediately understood, and replied: "My lord, the camp tents have been used up."

"..." Ruan Lan didn't expect Manager Zhang to answer like this. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then stood up and prepared to say goodbye, "In that case, then, I'll go to the inn outside the mountain tonight..."

"Ruan Lan." Yin Zhan called him, "There is no extra tent, but there is a spare bed. You can rest here tonight. I will ask Eunuch Zhang to make an extra bed for you."

"This..." Ruan Lan was thinking about how to politely refuse, "I still—"

Yin Jian pointed back: "Look, Eunuch has already paved the bed for you."

Ruan Lan turned her head to look.That's right, Manager Zhang who was standing on the side suddenly disappeared, and there was an extra bed behind him at some point, Manager Zhang was standing in front, and the mattress and pillows were almost ready.

The words of refusal that Ruan Lan had just thought about in her heart were blocked back by Manager Zhang at such a lightning-fast speed: "So, that's really troublesome Manager Zhang..."

So Ruan Lan had to stay in Yin Xian's tent overnight.

that night.

"Ruan Lan... Take it easy... Hey..."

Manager Zhang stood outside the account, and heard such a sentence unexpectedly.He hurriedly waved away the guards in front of the tent, and said to them: "Brothers, the night is getting dark, and you are tired, go and rest for an hour, I will guard here."

"Thank you, Manager Zhang!"

The two guards stood in this wilderness for several days. They were exposed to the scorching sun during the day, and they were often bitten by the poisonous mosquitoes in the mountains. Dozens of bags were often bitten out by the poisonous mosquitoes in the mountains. False, even though there was only one hour, they were still overjoyed.

Director Zhang secretly let out a long sigh of relief, and suddenly heard the emperor say: "...hey... light...let's ask Eunuch Zhang to come in and let him help me..."

Hearing that, Mr. Zhang was sweating from behind.How can he help His Majesty with such a matter? ...

Then I heard Lord Ruan say: "Your Majesty can't believe me..."

"How could it be, of course you can trust it... Wait, be gentle... Uh..."

Manager Zhang silently sighed in his heart, he did not expect that after so many years, His Majesty has become the one below.

It's really turning around.

At this time, in the account.

Ruan Lan was sitting in front of Yin Zhan's bed, massaging Yin Zhan's shoulders and back.

Yin Jian went up the mountain today and accidentally twisted his right foot. Although there was no serious problem and he was still able to walk, no one else noticed it, but in order to cover up the injury on his foot, every step he took when climbing the mountain required more muscles and bones than usual. More effort.After walking like this for a day, Yin's chest and back became sore and weak.Manager Zhang had already given medicine to his ankles before, and he thought it would be good to sleep at night, but his muscles and bones became more sore at night.

He tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep, but Ruan Lan, who was three feet away, saw something strange at a glance.Surprisingly, Ruan Lan volunteered to give him a massage, and Yin Jian immediately agreed happily.

It's just that Ruan Lan's technique is not very good, and it may be that he is really too tired, so he feels that no matter where Ruan Lan presses, he feels unbearable pain.

Yin Jian was lying on the bed, and the middle clothes began to be scattered with Ruan Lan's movements. The skin on the waist and back was exposed. Ruan Lan's eyes were sharp, and she immediately saw a half-inch wide opening under Yin Jian's left rib.

The scar left on this cut is very deep and very fresh, it is not an old wound at first glance, it should have been left in the past year.

It seems...that old Taoist was right.This is where Yin Jian pulled out his ribs.

Yin Jian asked, "Ruan Lan? Why did it stop?"

Ruan Lan quickly regained her senses and said, "Sorry..." Then she continued to move her hands.

Yin Xian was dissatisfied and said: "Next time you come back, you should let everyone in the Ministry of Rites go to the top of the mountain to take a tour first. You have already worshiped at the bottom of the mountain today, why do you have to climb to the top of the mountain to worship again? I am really full. ..."

"Hmm..." Ruan Lan didn't know if she heard Yin Jian's complaint, but she just responded softly.

Suddenly, Yin Xian grabbed his hand.

"Don't touch here." He looked directly into Ruan Lan's eyes, and slowly moved Ruan Lan's hand covering his ribs upwards, "I just... have a sore back."

Ruan Lan suddenly didn't dare to look into Yin Jian's eyes, and turned her eyes aside: "...Yes, Your Majesty."

The next morning.

When Ruan Lan opened her eyes, she saw Yin Xian sleeping on his bed with her arms around his waist.The bed covered with golden velvet that Yin Xian used to sleep on now only has a lonely pillow left.

Careless.

I thought there would be no problem for the two of them sleeping on their own beds, but Yin Jian took advantage of it unexpectedly.
