Tread thousands of dust

Hou Ke complained several times along the way: "Sister Ziming, have you shopped enough! I can't walk anymore!"

Ling Ziming said helplessly: "We have only been out for two hours, are you tired?"

Hou Ke almost cried: "Two hours! Sister, I really can't do it!"

Ling Ziming laughed and said: "Okay, okay, let's go back right away, buy some sweets for brother and leave!"

Hou Ke reluctantly followed her. Ling Ziming had just walked a few steps when she suddenly heard a call from behind:

"Zi Ming"

Ling Ziming looked back suddenly, she heard the right voice, it really was Jiang Mang.

Jiang Mang said in surprise, "It's really you!"

Ling Ziming also smiled and said: "Master, long time no see."

"Why didn't you come to look for me when you returned to the imperial city? I'm afraid they really forgot me?" Jiang Mang pretended to be angry.

"How could it be? I haven't congratulated you on your upcoming marriage." Ling Ziming smiled lightly, "Don't you need to prepare for the wedding today? Why do you have time?"

Jiang Mang said shyly: "His Royal Highness... came to the mansion today to discuss with my godmother about accepting the lottery, and I just went out for a walk."

Hou Ke looked behind her and saw a large group of maids carrying all kinds of things. He could also see the joy of getting married on Jiang Mang's face, which he couldn't hide.

Ling Ziming just smiled: "That's great."

"Zi Ming...I know you treat His Highness...but I also..." Jiang Mang spoke vaguely and hesitantly.

"Needless to say these things, I have nothing to do with him, the princess is his future wife." Ling Ziming said, "Don't worry, he no longer has me in his heart, you must be good."

Jiang Mang nodded suddenly: "Zi Ming, you must come when I get married."

Ling Ziming smiled and agreed: "Definitely."

After finally saying a few more words to send Jiang Mang away, Hou Ke said dissatisfiedly: "She is going to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

Ling Ziming asked: "What's wrong?"

"She is not as beautiful as sister Ziming, why should His Royal Highness want to marry her?" Hou Ke was full of injustice for Ling Ziming.

Just as Ling Ziming was about to laugh, she suddenly felt a pain in her chest that she hadn't seen for a long time. She immediately sweated from the pain, and her hands and feet were numb. Hou Ke was so frightened that she supported her and said in panic: "Sister Ziming! Are you having a seizure again?"

Ling Ziming was in so much pain that he couldn't even breathe smoothly, so he had to smile wryly: "...that's...why...he can't marry me..."

It took Ling Ziming a long time to stop the pain, and Hou Ke worried: "Aren't you all right for a while? Why is it hurting again today?"

Ling Ziming shook his head: "...I don't know."

"Let's go back and take a few more pills. Mr. Yufan asked us to prepare a lot. The ramie grass has been ground into powder and brought with us." Hou Ke quickly suggested.

Ling Ziming shook his head anxiously: "No! I can't let my brother know. I haven't taken any medicine in the past two years, and I can suppress it. The ramie grass should not be wasted, let alone worry my brother."

"But......"

"Xiao Ke, I'll be fine, don't you tell brother if you hear me!" Ling Ziming ordered bluntly and without any sense of threat.

"But... why did Sister Ziming suffer from such a disease... You are beautiful and kind-hearted... God is too unfair." Hou Ke complained.

Ling Ziming looked at the ground and said in a daze: "God has never been a good person for a moment..."

Mo Fengyi came out of Zhuijinzhai, very inexplicably flustered, he just knew that Xun Can had left, and he didn't know why he wanted to explain to Xun Can, he had no feelings for Luo Yingran at all.

Mo Fengyi suddenly stopped again, why he wanted to explain to Xun Can but he couldn't help it, he was afraid that Xun Can really thought he liked Luo Yingran, but...is he qualified to explain anything?

Mo Fengyi stood in the middle of the road aggrieved again, and didn't recover for a long time.

When he was stunned and aggrieved, he was bumped on the leg suddenly, the force was not strong, but it was very strong, knocking him staggering.

Mo Feng turned his head angrily. Just as he was about to scold someone, he realized that it was a little girl who bumped into him, and she even complained first:

"Why did you bump into me!" The little girl was angry, rubbing her forehead and complaining, "Didn't you see me coming from here!"

Mo Feng was very angry: "I bumped into you, obviously you hit me, okay! I was standing with my back to you! You ran up and bumped into me!"

The little girl didn't know why this good-looking big brother was so fierce, she only knew that she was wronged: "Look! You knocked my candy away! It's because you don't know how to get out of the way!"

Mo Fengyi silently glanced at the sugar figurine that was broken on the ground, and didn't want to talk to her at all: "Don't make trouble for no reason, I didn't hit you, you hurt me and I haven't hit you yet!"

"Woo... Big brother bullied me! Woo..." The little girl cried as soon as she said it, and was caught off guard.

Mo Fengyi was scared immediately, and immediately squatted down and coaxed: "Okay, okay...Brother is wrong! It was my brother who hit you! My brother will take you to buy new candies, okay?"

The little girl was also caught off guard at the speed at which she stopped her crying. Her tears were still rolling in her big eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up: "...Really"

Immediately, Mo Fengyi felt that this little girl was very handed down by Ling Ziming, so he had no choice but to say: "Really, brother will buy you candy again."

The little girl immediately took his hand and prepared to leave happily: "I know where to buy sugar!"

Mo Fengyi immediately knew that the little girl was crying just to get him to buy candy.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll sell you?" Mo Fengyi asked directly.

"You won't." The little girl blinked her eyes wide and said, "You are so stupid, standing in the middle of the road and you don't know how to get out of the way when someone comes running, you definitely don't know how to sell me."

Mo Fengyi: "..."

The little girl dragged Mo Fengyi to the Juanweifang.When Mo Fengyi saw this little girl for the first time, he could tell from her clothes that she must be a lady from a wealthy family, not to mention that not everyone can afford to eat at the Juanweifang, almost all the dim sum here is served. Royal nobles, but Mo Fengyi didn't understand why a lady from a rich family would go out alone without a servant to follow.

So Mo Feng asked curiously: "Little girl, what's your name?"

"Well... I can't tell you, what if you are a bad person?" The little girl refused solemnly, which did not affect her sweeping the shop.

"Didn't you just say that I was stupid?" Mo Feng said with a strange smile, "Why are you calling me a bad person now?"

The little girl shrugged: "Stupid can also be a bad person."

Mo Fengyi bit his lower lip, and angrily pulled the candy bag in her hand: "Then I'm a bad person, so I won't buy you candy!"

The little girl pursed her mouth and snatched the candy bag back: "You are a bad person and you have to buy me candy! This is what you promised!"

Said that the little girl didn't give him any room for repentance, and directly handed over the candy to the boss for the bill.

Mo Fengyi smiled helplessly, and after paying the bill, he sat down with her on the side of the street and ate sweets together.

"Why do you eat candy?" The little girl asked curiously, "Aren't we the only ones who like candy?"

Mo Fengyi took a candy figurine and put it in his mouth and asked, "Can't I like candy?"

The little girl thought for a while and said, "Yes, anyone can eat candy."

After finishing speaking, the little girl handed all the candy in the bag to Mo Fengyi and said, "Here, I'll share half with you."

Mo Fengyi smiled brightly: "Well, anyone can eat candy."

The little girl asked curiously, "Why didn't you step aside just now? It made me drop all the sugar."

Mo Fengyi thought it was funny: "Why didn't you get out of the way just now, so I was hit."

"Well...someone was chasing me just now, I didn't have time to look ahead." The little girl licked the sugar and said humanely.

Mo Fengyi frowned suddenly and worried: "How many people are chasing you?"

The little girl shook her head and said, "Well... There should be several of them. Anyway, my father asked them to follow me, but he didn't let me eat candy, so I ran away."

Mo Fengyi breathed a sigh of relief: "It turns out that the members of your family, no wonder you are the only one who came out."

"But why don't they let me eat candy? Candy is so sweet." The little girl asked seriously.

Mo Feng smiled and said: "Because...they can't feel that sugar is sweet anymore, only you can feel it."

The little girl asked curiously, "Why?"

"Some people think sugar is sweet, but some people think sugar is bitter." Mo Fengyi replied, "We are all people who think sugar is sweet."

The little girl nodded: "They are so pitiful, even such a sweet candy feels bitter."

Mo Fengyi also nodded: "Well, it's so pitiful. Well, hurry up and finish eating the candy and I'll take you home, otherwise parents should be in a hurry."

The little girl looked him up and down, Mo Feng smiled and said: "I promise I'm not a bad person! And what if you really meet a bad person when you go home alone?"

The little girl finally responded: "Okay."

Mo Fengyi felt that his mood had improved a lot.

The little girl finally finished eating the candies and sugar figurines, took Mo Fengyi's hand and said, "Let's go."

Mo Fengyi bent over while holding her, almost fell on the ground and tripped himself to death.

The little girl made seven turns and eight turns along the way, bypassing the streets and alleys of the imperial city. When Mo Fengyi was still lamenting that this girl had such a good memory, the little girl stopped.

When Mo Fengyi saw the plaque at the entrance of the mansion, his heart was shocked. He suddenly squatted down and asked:

"You are Wen Tinglan!"

The little girl said in a daze: "How do you know?"

Mo Fengyi was astonished in his heart. He didn't dare to inquire about Wen Tinglan's recent situation when he returned to the imperial city. Even if Kun and Yao were with him every day, Mo Fengyi felt that he was not qualified to ask, but now Seeing this little girl, he suddenly felt a little relieved.

so far so good.

"Brother...knows this place...Kun Yi is your adoptive father, right?" Mo Fengyi asked tremblingly.

"What foster father is my father?" Wen Tinglan asked with her head tilted.

Mo Fengyi's tone froze immediately, and he remained silent for a while.

The guard at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion came down in a hurry and shouted: "Miss! Why did you come back! The master has sent many people to look for you!"

They stared at Mo Fengyi cautiously, and Mo Fengyi said indifferently: "We met on the road, so we brought her back."

A guard bowed: "Thank you son, our master must be very happy, please come with us, master will thank you face to face."

Mo Fengyi shook his head indifferently: "It's a little effort, no need."

After saying that, he was about to leave, but Wen Tinglan stopped him and asked, "Big Brother, you know my name, so what's your name?"

Mo Fengyi knelt down and smiled, "My name is Little Bell."

Wen Tinglan's eyes sparkled instantly: "I have a little bell! I really like my little bell!"

"Is it a silver wind chime?" Mo Feng asked with a trembling voice.

Wen Tinglan excitedly said: "Yes, yes, there are small flowers on it!"

Mo Fengyi's smile grew stronger: "Then promise brother, you must keep it well."

"Okay!" Wen Tinglan nodded fiercely, "Then what if I want to find you again?"

Mo Fengyi hesitated for a moment and said: "...Then just ring your bell, and brother will definitely come when he hears it."

"Really?" Wen Tinglan excitedly said, "Then will you still buy me candies?"

Mo Fengyi nodded slightly: "Buy."

So Wen Tinglan turned and entered the mansion with a smile and jumped, and then shouted: "Goodbye, brother Lingdang!"

Mo Fengyi was in a daze for a moment, then smiled and waved his hands to say goodbye.

Until stepping into Zhuijinzhai, Mo Fengyi still failed to calm down.

Luo Yingran knelt down beside him respectfully, and silently placed the tea set before saying: "Leader, please have some tea."

Mo Fengyi supported his forehead, took a sip from the teacup and said, "This tea is from the Liuyun Museum, right?"

"Yes." Luo Yingran hurriedly said, "If the leader doesn't like it..."

"No, I like it very much." Mo Fengyi interrupted her lightly, "Are you afraid of me?"

Luo Yingran shook her head nervously, and she couldn't tell if she was afraid, but she was very nervous when she saw this person.This is Mo Fengyi, the most outstanding patriarch in the entire martial arts world, and the leader she can only hope for.She had been looking forward to this man like a god for a long time, and Mo Fengyi finally came to the imperial city, and he was finally willing to take a look at her.

But it was just a glance, Luo Yingran had to admit that the moment he fell into Mo Fengyi's arms, he really fell. The tenderness and affection he showed at that time really easily fascinated the girl, but now Mo Fengyi Feng Yi is also extremely cold and resolute, keeping a clear distance, which makes people feel his ruthlessness.A person like Mo Fengyi is like a poppy, he must stay awake all the time, otherwise he will not be able to tell whether he is acting on the spot or sincerely.

"You have worked hard in the imperial city for the past two years." Mo Fengyi continued to taste the tea.

"The subordinates are only acting according to the leader's orders...the lady with a thin eyebrow can solve the leader's worries and problems." Luo Yingran reluctantly said calmly.

Mo Fengyi didn't quite understand why she brought up Ling Ziming at this time, so he just said: "You don't have to compare with her, you are already different."

"Yes."

Mo Feng said strangely: "I remember that you don't seem to be twenty-eight or twenty-eight years old, why today..."

Luo Yingran didn't know why Mo Fengyi brought up her age, and hurriedly explained: "The lord told his subordinates earlier that I should spread the news of this competition, and it would be best to make a sensation in the imperial city, but I thought about it. That’s all I can say when I get the right reason.”

"It doesn't matter." Mo Fengyi said indifferently, "I'm just worried that I remembered it wrong. When His Royal Highness's marriage is done this time, you can come back to the Wenyu League with us, and you don't have to stay in the imperial city anymore."

"Thank you, leader." Luo Yingran said happily, "It's just that the subordinates don't understand why this matter should be made so big this time. If the leader just came to explain things..."

"Because I just want them to like you." Mo Feng said differently, "Let them know that my son is staying in Jinzhai today. Spring night."

Luo Yingran blushed when she heard this, but she knew that this was not what Mo Fengyi had in mind: "The subordinates understand that the leader is making such a big show to reassure those people, so that they won't expose Zhui Jinzhai."

"That's right, I want to act under their noses." Mo Fengyi nodded, "Don't talk about anything else, how about the things I told you before?"

"As the leader expected, there were indeed people in the imperial city who traded with Dai Huiyuan, and they traded various things over the years, such as private salt, cosmetic powder, spices, weapons... According to the informant's report, these transactions Maybe it's all over Beiyi and even the entire Central Plains." Luo Yingranhui reported.

"who is it"

"This person's name is Yu Min, and he runs a cloth shop. It's almost summer now, but he always buys a lot of thick cotton wool, so we followed the clues and found that he has a lot of private things hidden." Luo Yingran dared not hide a word, "Can the lord arrest someone for interrogation?"

"Don't startle the snake." Mo Feng said strangely, "How can he support such a big deal just because he is an unknown person? Maybe Yu Min is just a part of the secret collusion between Jianghu and the court for so many years, and he may even be just a puppet. You continue to stare at him , and don’t let other suspicious people go.”

"Yes."

"What was that Beijing opera you sang a few days ago?" Mo Feng asked with a frown.

Luo Yingran replied politely: "Return to the leader, this song is called "Suo Qingqiu", it is..."

"The lyrics of this song are a poem, right?" Mo Fengyi interrupted her with a cold voice and continued to ask.

"Yes..." Luo Yingran felt a little frightened, "It's called "Yuanyuan"."

Mo Fengyi's voice did not fluctuate: "What is it written?"

Luo Yingran replied: "Lianlian sent Bingxin, Wang Xie's lover.

I only pity the season of flowers, but I don't have to please the king. "

"From now on." Mo Fengyi said coldly, "I don't want to hear this word again, and there are operas adapted from it, understand?"

Luo Yingran was shocked all over, and she was so frightened that she only dared to nod her head.

"Yes."

Mo Fengyi recovered his expression and continued: "Is there any news from Shu Renlu?"

"King Wei Bin has been busy preparing for His Royal Highness's wedding recently, and there is no problem." Luo Yingran continued.

Mo Fengyi murmured silently: "Last winter and this spring, locust plagues were prevalent in the central area. Shu Renlu tried his best to relieve the disaster and scattered all the money in the palace, which quickly relieved the disaster. Therefore, he is very favored. If he wants to continue to consolidate the emperor's respect for him If you love me, you should fight for the right to manage the Thunder Moon Festival this year, but at this moment, he cares about the brotherhood and goes to work for the prince, what exactly does this Shu Renlu want to do?"

"Perhaps King Wei Bin wants the prince to let go of his guard, and to gain a good reputation as a brother and friend in front of the emperor and ministers." Luo Yingran guessed.

"Maybe...that's all, you can investigate secretly, just remember one thing, no matter what, you can't reveal your identities, and you can't let them notice." Mo Fengyi ordered.

Luo Yingran nodded hastily: "This subordinate obeys."

Mo Feng stood up and said, "That's it for today, you should rest earlier."

Luo Yingran asked in surprise, "Where is the leader going?"

"The next room." Mo Fengyi turned around and said blankly as soon as he lifted his foot.

Luo Yingran suddenly realized that she had misunderstood his meaning, and blushed instantly: "I thought... the leader was going to leave."

However, Mo Fengyi thought that she took what he just said seriously and thought that he really wanted to spend the spring night with her, so he explained: "I will not belittle you, let alone ruin your reputation. After the things here are over, , I will change your name again, and will not make you really a brothel girl, but I will wrong you a little during this time."

"That's not what I mean!" Luo Yingran hastily explained, "I insisted on coming to the Imperial City at the beginning, and I also invited myself to Zhuijinzhai. It doesn't matter what my reputation is, as long as I can share the worries of the leader, Yingran doesn't care about anything. .”

Mo Fengyi didn't know how to proceed for a while, he didn't expect that he would pave the way for Luo Yingran, and she would refuse.

Luo Yingran hurriedly saluted and said, "Leader, go slowly."

So Mo Fengyi could only nod his head, he suddenly realized that he really didn't know how to get along with girls, and Ling Ziming was simply the exception among the exceptions.
