The cool wind blew through the luxuriant osmanthus trees outside the window, making a soft rustle, and the lanterns hanging outside the house shook slightly, casting black shadows with fangs and claws on the window paper.

The beast-shaped copper incense burner in the main hall emits white smoke, and the hall is filled with a faint cold fragrance. The innermost dragon bed is covered with layers of gauze curtains, and a human figure is vaguely bulging in the middle of the bed. You could tell from his expression that he didn't sleep well.

Xie Zeyuan has not dreamed of that day for a long time.

The new emperor ascended the throne in a few days, and there was joy inside and outside the palace. Even the lanterns seemed to be redder than before—everyone deliberately didn't think about the bloody smell that was washed away by the rain not long ago.

The night was darker.

But there are still people who haven't fallen asleep.

The envoy in a plain white wide-sleeved robe stood with his hands behind his back in front of the window. The humid air seemed even colder at night, but he seemed to be unaware of it, staring at the treetops outside the window who had just emerged from the dark clouds. The moon that ran out had no emotion on its face as white as jade.

The pine dew is slightly moonlight, and the clear light is still king.

When Xie Zeyuan walked into the room, he saw such a scene.

The evening wind blew the broken hair on the side of the man's temples, Xu Shi heard the sound of the door opening, he turned around and looked over, seeing him, the man's eyebrows and eyes were slightly surprised, and then turned into a light smile.

That smile reflected the candlelight, adding a bit of warmth. He seemed very happy, and he was completely different from the indifference just now. Seeing Xie Zeyuan stared blankly for a moment, the hand holding the jug couldn't help but tighten.

"You can't sleep either?" Xie Zeyuan heard the man ask.

"Yeah." He replied in a low voice, then put the jug on the table, "Two glasses?"

When they were in the army, they often drank together at night and talked about their ambitions, but Xie Zeyuan always said that he just listened quietly, and then stopped Xie Zeyuan before he got drunk.

Tonight seems to be the same as before, but it seems to be different.

Maybe it's because of a change in status, or maybe...

It's a change of heart.

Xie Zeyuan picked up the jug and poured a glass himself, his hand was steady, "The unique 'Thousand Day Drunk' of Mount Qiwang is the only one in the palace, try it?"

The rich aroma of the wine wafted out, and it made people feel slightly drunk before they could drink it.

Alcohol is not intoxicating, people are self-intoxicating.

Xie Zeyuan also poured himself a glass, which was different from the usual way of drinking, this time he drank very slowly, neither of them spoke, maybe they did, but he didn't remember.

Xie Zeyuan knew he was dreaming, but he didn't want to wake up.

"It's been so many years, and you only came to see me once." At this moment, when he looked at the man's face again, it was a little blurred.

"Alright." He poured another glass, then drank the white water-like wine in one gulp, picked up the jug, and lightly pressed the handle.

"The original intention of developing the Jiuqu Yuanyang Pot was to facilitate taking medicine, but it turned out to be a harmful weapon in the end." Pei Jue sighed softly.

[Pei Pei, do you think of Xie Zeyuan again? 】

Pei Jue sat at the tea table, looked at the dancing candles, did not speak, but turned his gaze to the white-robed man standing beside him with his sword in his arms.

Ever since he bumped into this man in the alley that day, he couldn't help but take Pei Jue away.

Pei Jue originally lacked the strength to fight back due to his physical limitations, and considering that he would be able to get rid of that little prince in a logical way, he didn't struggle.

However, the man who kidnapped him seemed to be worried about him. He had been guarding him in the inn for the past few days, not talking, except for eating, even sleeping next to him like a log.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. After this man led him around, he went straight back to Jiutan City.

Pei Jue has the system to chat with him, and he can also watch the drama, which is not boring. Anyway, he is patient, and sees the origin of this man who imitates his dress.

Ying Shisan has been waiting for the news of the person who sent him the letter, but he has taken the person mentioned in the letter away for so many days, and he has not seen the letter.

He pondered over the contents of the letter, must the person be abolished?He looked at the person at the table. This person was weird, and he subconsciously didn't want to do anything to him.

It has been many years since Yingyi disappeared, and he is not in a hurry. Now he wants to know the details of the person who sent him the letter, because the logo on that letter is unique to Shadowmen, and the other party must have grasped the news of Shadowmen, and even It is possible that it is the person in the door.

There are too few clues, he has no way of judging now, but he has always been so passive, he decided to wait for two more days, if there is still no news...

He carefully looked at the people at the table, as if considering which angle was better to attack.

Pei Jue: ...a polite smile :)

He's just too lazy to fight, it's not that he can't beat it, after all, the props in the system space are not decorations.

"Still haven't found it?" In the main room, Xie Yizheng looked at the attendants, his brows were tightly furrowed, and the blue and black eyes were extremely obvious.

"Returning to His Royal Highness, we have searched several nearby urban areas, but we still haven't found anyone. We suspect that he has gone far."

"Impossible!" Xie Yizheng said without hesitation, "It is impossible for him to walk so fast alone with his physical strength..."

"Maybe he was taken away by someone else?" Congzhi interjected.

"It's not impossible." An Wu also answered, for some reason, he thought of the gaze that made him feel like a thorn in his back that day.

This kind of situation where the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light is extremely unfavorable to them.

Xie Yizheng gritted his teeth, "Let's stay for another day, if we still can't find it..." His eyes darkened, "We'll go back to Yongzhao!"

With the help of Grandpa Huang, he couldn't believe that he couldn't find it!

But in this case, some news may not be concealed.

The next day, in Yongzhao City.

"What's the use of Ying Shisan taking someone away? What I want is to abolish him!" The man in brocade clothes patted the table and said.

Bai Shu didn't know what went wrong, but the most important thing now is to appease the prince, so he picked up nice words and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, although Thirteen broke the contract, but the prince is still irritated, According to the news from the people below, they are already preparing to return to the capital, His Highness needs to move faster, instead of dealing with a small person who appears from nowhere, it is better to concentrate on winning over the little grandson of General Shuyuan."

Sure enough, the man in brocade clothes was distracted by his words, but his tone was still not good, "Xue Suifeng is a boy who doesn't like to be soft and hard, and I've sold him several times, but he fooled me by making jokes!"

"In order to accomplish the great cause, Your Highness, please feel sorry for yourself." Bai Shu comforted, "As long as you have the support of General Shuyuan, many things will be much more convenient. Waiting for you to board...they are still at your disposal!"

"What you said makes sense!" The man in brocade clothes rolled his eyes, and he didn't know what dream he was thinking of. He smiled almost to the ears, and he patted Bai Shu on the shoulder. If you get the power, you will never forget your credit!"

"Being able to relieve His Highness's worries is a blessing for the servants! How can it be considered as some kind of credit?" Bai Shu waved his hands repeatedly, bowing his head in shame.

The man in brocade clothes was even more satisfied when he saw this. He laughed and stepped out of the room first, "Come on, let's meet that young master of the Xue family!"

Xue Suifeng felt that he might have committed a crime against Tai Sui recently.

First, I accidentally broke my grandfather's Duan inkstone a few days ago, which caused my grandfather to always blow his beard and stare when he saw him, and then these few days...

"Master Xue wants to buy an inkstone?"

It was already late autumn, but still waving his fan, the handsome man in brocade walked into the study with the eunuch who never left him. After seeing Xue Suifeng, he looked like a coincidence.

If this was not the fourth time seeing him like this recently, Xue Suifeng might really think it was a coincidence, but as the saying goes, Xue Suifeng is really annoyed by this virtuous prince now.

But the other party had no self-awareness at all, "I am very familiar with the owner of this study, why don't I recommend it for Young Master Xue?"

Xue Suifeng smiled, "I just want to buy an ordinary Duan inkstone, so I won't bother His Royal Highness."

"Duanyan?" Thinking of the recent rumors, the son of the virtuous king nodded clearly, with an expression of "I understand you", and looked at Xue Suifeng with pity, "The old general also treated Young Master Xue like this for a mere piece of inkstone!"

Xue Suifeng stared at him deadly, this son of the virtuous king really has a brain disorder, look at that expression, and listen to what he is saying is human?My grandfather and I just communicate with sticks every day, how should we treat it?What do you know? !

But Xue Suifeng didn't go out today to make trouble, so he chose to smile politely, and then chose the inkstone he liked.

The son of the virtuous king next to him thought that he agreed with his point of view, and he suddenly spoke more vigorously after he felt that he finally had a conversation with the other party.

During the speech, he still did not forget to give the eunuch beside him a smug look, His Highness came out, and Xue Suifeng was nothing but easy to catch!

Seeing Shizi's triumphant look, Bai Shu didn't say much, just being a background board with peace of mind.

After Xue Suifeng finally found the most satisfying piece of inkstone, amidst the other party's nagging voice, he quickly took the things to pay the bill, "I've already bought it, let's go first, Your Highness, I'm sorry."

Don't forget to step on each other's feet when passing by.

The son of the virtuous king screamed and jumped on the spot in pain. When he recovered, there was no shadow of Xue Suifeng.

"This Xue Suifeng... is he playing tricks on me!"

"Your Highness, why did you say that!" Bai Shu complimented, "Just now, Young Master Xue obviously had a high opinion of His Highness, this is just a small accident."

It was said that although the son of the virtuous king was still a little doubtful, but with strong self-confidence, he quickly puffed up his chest again and regained his air. Naturally, he who was walking in front would not see that the eunuch behind him stared at him. The sarcasm and satisfaction in it.

——Keep this posture, you will be the most qualified chess piece.

In the palace, Xie Zeyuan, who returned to the imperial study after retreating from the court, rarely did not go to review the memorial, but called someone.

"You take my token and go to Kunlun Snow Peak to pay homage to Dragon Ancestor and the envoy."
