I wish for a long time

In the tavern, in the corner, one black and one white were leaning against the small table, looking at each other silently.

After a long time, Ye Jiu said:

"So, at first you thought Shao'er's other half was Qingchi?"

Xiao Lanfeng took a sip of his wine, "At that time, Qingchi always wore white clothes everywhere he went, and he was also handsome, but Ziqi said that his sister might have married and his husband was wearing a white robe, so I thought it was Qing Chi."

Ye Jiu raised his eyebrows, "That's why you asked me if Qingchi was married that day?"

Xiao Lanfeng nodded, "Exactly, but in the end you told me that he didn't have a family. I also tested it privately later, and it was indeed true."

"What then?"

"Do you remember that once when I went to your house, Madam Ling walked past me, but Madam Ling didn't raise her head, and I only got a glimpse of her side face, so I felt a little familiar at that time."

Ye Jiu heard this and thought about it, it seems that there is such a thing.

She put her hand on her forehead, "So you asked me which Miss Shao'er was the other day, just to make sure if she was the daughter of the Qi family?"

Xiao Lanfeng sighed softly, "Yeah, but who knows that you are so tight-lipped that even Qing Chi patted his chest and promised that Mrs. Ling's name is Ye An. What can I do?"

Ye Jiu hated iron for being weak, "Brother, you don't know what the identities of their brother and sister are? You ask so bluntly, how can I tell you the truth!"

Xiao Lanfeng choked for a moment, he remained silent, picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

"Later, you asked someone to ask me about the patrols in the southern part of the city. It happened that you had a case at the time. I was afraid that you wanted to investigate one by one. You know, if Ziqi entered the government, it might be his identity. It is very likely that it will be revealed to others, so I concealed it."

Ye Jiu let out a long sigh when he heard the words, and he couldn't help but feel emotional, "Things are impermanent, I'm afraid that Shao'er will be exposed, and you are afraid that your second uncle will be in danger, and in the end, you will miss it."

"Actually, it was because Shao'er went to the street and saw a figure that looked exactly like his second uncle, so he asked you to inquire about it. Unexpectedly, it made you suspicious."

Ye Jiu raised his cup, drank it, and said leisurely, "Speaking of mistakes, it's not the only one."

"I once visited the Xiao Mansion with Shao'er, but unfortunately, you were not there that day."

Xiao Lanfeng thought for a while, then suddenly looked at Ye Jiu: "You mean the beginning of March?"

"Exactly, speaking of it..."

Ye Jiu blinked, that day was the day when Qi's father, mother, and elder brother Qi were in trouble, so Xiao Qi would also think about offering sacrifices.

Xiao Lanfeng lowered his eyes when he heard the words, "After the incident happened the year before last, all the Qi family members were separated, and the bones of my uncle, aunt and elder brother were left unattended. I went to the mass grave to pick them up, buried them in the outskirts, and erected a monument without words. And the day you two came, I accompanied my son Qi to worship outside the city."

Hearing this, Ye Jiu felt a dull pain in his heart.

The replacement of the throne and the infighting between courts are unavoidable in every dynasty. However, behind every game of life and death, how many innocent people are affected, and life and death are parted.

Father Qi is indeed pitiful, but the saddest thing is his wife and children who know little about it.

The world still says that wives and children are not as bad as misfortunes, but when it comes to the court, they swear to eradicate the roots.

Ye Jiu rubbed his wine glass, and after a long time, he asked, "Then how did you save your second uncle at that time?"

Xiao Lanfeng glanced at her, and replied: "I was not a high-ranking official at that time, but fortunately, I was familiar with a general who was leading me at that time. That general was a loyal person, and asked someone to rescue Ziqi."

Ye Jiu realized in his heart that the general he was talking about was probably General Zou Zhao, and he probably didn't know that it was Uncle Bai who rescued him.

She thought about it again, but couldn't help being startled.

At that time, the Ministry of Criminal Justice was handling the case today's black face, Mr. Zhang, and as a Shangshu, it was impossible for him not to know about saving people from under the nose of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Mr. Zhang, have you turned a blind eye?

So why?

Ye Jiu squeezed the cup, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

"However, when I went to rescue the female family members of the Qi family, they had already been sold to a private residence and had already left the capital."

There was a little annoyance hidden in Xiao Lanfeng's eyes, Ye Jiu looked at him, not knowing what to say.

If he had rescued Qi Shao'an earlier, then the following things would not have happened at all, and Shao'er might still be a carefree little girl who is cared for by others.

But fate tricks people, no one wants to see all of this, and no one can blame anyone.

Ye Jiu didn't continue this topic, and simply started again: "Why did that Ziqi join your garrison later, and how could he guard the city gate?"

Xiao Lanfeng was too lazy to drink small cups, so he picked up the jug and poured it into his own mouth.

"I met Ziqi in the outskirts of the city. He practiced kung fu very well. He was obviously a son of an official family, but he was able to fight on par with me who was struggling in the barracks. We became friends because of this."

"Afterwards, the two of us secretly studied martial arts from time to time, and went out hunting. He also told me that he wanted to gain fame, but he was not the number one scholar in literature, but the number one scholar in martial arts."

"But Uncle Qi only wants him to be a scholar, and he doesn't want him to associate with a martial artist, so I never went to his house in those few months, and he never mentioned me to his family."

Xiao Lanfeng smiled wryly, and continued:

"Later, something happened to the Qi family, and Ziqi was depressed all the way. He lived like a walking corpse for more than half a year, and finding his sister was the biggest motivation for him to live. In order to arouse his fighting spirit, I encouraged him to be a patrol. Patrol in the capital every day, so that as soon as his sister returns to the capital, he will meet her immediately."

"Since then, he has slowly picked himself up and walked around the streets crazily every day. People only think that patrol guard Xiao is the most responsible, and they praise him a lot, but they don't know the pain in his heart."

Xiao Lanfeng sighed, tilted his head up and poured the wine, the dim light shone on him, and the strong man suddenly felt a little lonely.

"On the day of praying for the new year, I was temporarily transferred to guard the palace, and I was worried that the generals guarding the city would get mixed up with ghosts. Seeing that I was in trouble, he asked Ying to be transferred to the city gate, but he didn't want to fall into the trap of King Mu."

"After the explosion in the south of the city, many people gathered under the city gate, clamoring to open the gate to get water from the river to put out the fire. Many of them were people in the area under Ziqi's jurisdiction. Some of them still had fire on them. Ziqi couldn't bear their suffering, so he ordered to open the city gate."

"I only found out later that those people were all sent by King Mu to use his kindness to deceive the city gate."

Ye Jiu pursed his lips, he could only say that King Mu's move was really cunning.

Although this incident was for the sake of the people and won the hearts of the people, it stepped on the tail of the emperor.

An official who is not a king, has a compassionate heart, makes mistakes in judgment, and is exploited by others, almost causing the palace to fall. No amount of reasons can appease the emperor's anger.

This matter is difficult.

Ye Jiu sighed slightly, she put down her wine glass, stood up and shook her robe, looked at Xiao Lanfeng's back still leaning on the table, and said softly: "It will get better."

She passed Xiao Lanfeng, turned her head slightly, and repeated again:

"everything will get better."

……

Ye Jiu was carried all the way back to the bamboo garden by Xue Jingning from the gate, anyway, it was not the first time he did this kind of thing, Xue Jingning seemed quite calm this time, and threw him directly back to her bedroom.

Qi Shao'an and Song Chuxun stood blankly in the yard for three seconds, then looked at each other, and chased into the house.

"Xue Er, have you been drinking with her?"

Song Chuxun saw Ye Jiu pulling Xue Jingning's sleeve like a bear, and he seemed to have lost his normal communication ability, so he asked Xue Jingning.

Xue Jingning helplessly looked at Ye Jiu who was smirking, "How dare I drink with her, Ye Zi was still serious when she came back, and she became this kind of virtue as soon as she entered the door, two aunts, please do me a favor and get him away .”

The lesson of blood and tears told him that a drunk leaf has no humanity at all.

"Let me do it."

Qi Shao'an walked to the two of them slowly, stretched out his hand to grab Ye Jiu's hand that was holding Xue Jingning's cuff, and patted lightly, "Ajiu, let go."

Hearing this, Ye Jiu tilted his head to look at Qi Shao'an, then at Xue Jingning, and laughed a few times, "Boy, we're going to Huamanlou tomorrow, so I don't believe we can't beat Cuihua."

Ye Jiu was still enjoying himself, but the people in the room fell silent suddenly.

Song Chuxun frowned slightly, looking at Ye Jiu's wanton face, feeling a little sad in his heart.

Xue Jingning stopped the drawn arm, looked at her quietly, swallowed what she wanted to say.

"Ajiu, go back to sleep."

Qi Shao'an exerted a little force on her hand, successfully attracting Ye Jiu's attention, she curled her lips and stretched out her arms towards Qi Shao'an, "Hug."

Qi Shaoan froze for a moment, his eyes swept over Song Chuxun and Xue Jingning, and before he could say anything, he saw Ye Jiu tilted towards him from the corner of his eye, so before his brain could react, his body subconsciously caught it her.

Song Chuxun tactfully dragged Xue Jingning out quickly, and closed the door behind him.

Leaning his cheek against Qi Shaoan's lower abdomen, Ye Jiu took a deep breath and muttered, "It smells so good..."

Perhaps because of being drunk, Ye Jiu's face was extremely hot, even through the material of the clothes, Qi Shao'an could still feel the heat coming from him.

"Why do you drink so much wine?"

Qi Shao'an lowered his head, gently rubbed the top of her hair, then slid down the hair, pinched her soft earlobes, his voice was gentle and soft, with a slight rise in the end.

Ye Jiu put his arms around her waist, as if his arms were too heavy to lift, she hooked her fingers around the belt around the waist of the person in front of her, wishing she could hang her whole body on it.

Qi Shao'an naturally saw her small thoughts, and shook his head helplessly.

Ajiu is good at everything, but the wine is poor.You never know what absurd thing this guy will do next second.

"Okay, go to sleep."

But Ajiu also has one good thing, that is, he is obedient, no different from a three or two-year-old baby.

However, today seems to be different. After talking for a long time, she still seems to have not heard it, and is still half-hanging on her body.

Qi Shaoan reached out and touched her cheek, and pinched her lightly, "My words don't work anymore, do you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qi Shaoan suddenly lost his voice.

Soft and wet on the fingertips.

That's right, the tentacles were hot and humid.

She was startled, and a little bit at a loss. She didn't know if she said something too harshly, which made this little ancestor cry.

He hurriedly held that cheek with his palm, and held it up gently, but Ye Jiu seemed to be competing with her, desperately burrowing into her arms.Qi Shao'an was anxious for a moment, so he let out a low voice, "Ajiu!"

The person in his arms trembled subconsciously and stopped struggling.Qi Shaoan immediately regretted it, and quickly stroked her back, coaxing: "I'm sorry, Ajiu, I was just impatient."

Seeing Ye Jiu rubbing against her arms again, Qi Shaoan tentatively asked, "Is there... something wrong?"

Ye Jiu still didn't move, but this time Qi Shaoan didn't ask any more questions, but just kneaded her neck, like soothing a puppy, to make her relax.

Anyway, she will always speak when it is time to speak, and there is no rush.

Compared with knowing the truth, she didn't want to force her.

After a long time, Ye Jiu suddenly raised his head, resting his chin on Qi Shaoan's belly, and gave a big smile, and there was still a teardrop hanging from the corner of his eye, "Shaoer, my second uncle gave you a wooden hairpin." Woolen cloth."

Under Qi Shaoan's dazed gaze, she added another sentence: "Put it on, it looks good."

……

Mrs. Lin finally decided to see Concubine Zheng, whether it was her guardianship when she was young, or her care for many years, she couldn't refuse.

There may be other reasons, but they are not important, so let's see if you want to see it.

On the day when Ye Jiu was drunk, Mrs. Lin returned to the mansion with Ye Jiu's alcohol smell floating in the air, and locked herself in the room without even eating.

However, this time there was no piano sound.

However, on the second day after Mrs. Lin returned to the mansion, news came from the palace that Concubine Zheng had hanged herself.

When the maid found out, her body was already cold.

Chu Shishen was silent for a while when he heard the news. Although Concubine Zheng was the biological mother of King Mu and had some involvement with the Marquis of Zhenyuan, he did not have any strong evidence to prove that Concubine Zheng was involved, and because of her status as a concubine, he just She was placed under house arrest without doing anything excessive, and even allowed Mrs. Hou Ye to come to see her.

But even so, she still didn't let herself go.

Did not let him go.

Concubine Zheng hanged herself, although he quickly issued a gag order, but there were always rumors secretly spreading, saying that where Concubine Zheng hanged herself, it was very likely that the emperor gave her death.

Chu Shishen didn't take a cold for her at all, but this time he was so angry that his nose almost turned crooked.

When Ye Jiu heard it, he conservatively estimated that it was the first few hands of news, because she came to the palace early in the morning.

She was startled at first, and after asking the eunuch several times, she was sure that it was really Concubine Zheng.

That gorgeous woman who was always gentle with herself and caring.

She could basically guess why Concubine Zheng was so special to her, at least it wasn't because of King Mu's grandson.

Because Concubine Zheng looked at her with no calculations in her eyes.

That's why, when the case of the eighth princess was found in Yihui Palace, she was so unwilling to believe it.

Facts have proved that even now, she does not believe that this matter was designed by Concubine Zheng.

It's just that whether it's true or not isn't important anymore. When a person dies like a lamp going out, all the mysteries will come to an imperfect end with the death of Concubine Zheng.

But since then, just by blocking Youyou's mouth, Chu Shishen will not kill King Mu blatantly.

Otherwise, the cruel and bloodthirsty hat is no joke.

Ye Jiu sighed slightly, Concubine Zheng used her life to protect King Mu no matter what.

Parents' beloved sons should have far-reaching plans.

However, this plan was counted on the head of the current emperor.

Ye Jiu felt that it was not suitable to see Chu Shishen today, especially for pleading.

She stood at the fork in the road, pursed her lips hesitantly, and kept crossing her fingers, trying to decide whether to go or stay by fate.

But fate did not speak, and human life spoke out first.

In front of the Moon Arch, a soft and shallow voice came, some familiar, yet not so familiar:

"Young Master, are you going to leave just now?"

The author has something to say: emm... old cpbe, in fact Zheng Taifei is still okay, but people have different ways.

Do you have any friends who will take the college entrance examination tomorrow? Come on!Hit the flag and win the title of the gold list!Duck!
