Cang Ri Qing Lan

In King's City of Beijing, a carriage galloped past with a loud rumbling sound, which scared the passers-by on the street to give way. The driver seemed to think it was not fast enough, he kept urging the horse with his whip, and did not slow down until he entered the downtown area.

The downtown area of ​​Wangcheng is not small, with bustling streets, shops, vendors, restaurants and teahouses.

Cang Lan was sitting in the car, resting on Xing Ye's shoulders in a loose posture as always, with the wind blowing through the window, her silver hair brushed against Xing Ye's cheeks one after another.It's just that he kept staring out the window, with a trace of anxiety flashing in his eyes from time to time, and he knelt and sat down unconsciously.

The back of the neck of the person next to him was hot.

On the other side, Qing Ling didn't seem to be affected by the bumps at all, and didn't care about the intimate behavior of the two, and sat upright.Noticing that the carriage turned the corner, he leaned forward, picked up the cloak and put it on Cang Lan,

"Your Majesty, we are almost here."

"Well,"

Cang Lan didn't look back, let Qing Ling tie the knot of the cloak, and said casually,

"You two will wait for me in the car in a while."

"Lord..."

"His Majesty……"

Xing Ye and Qing Ling spoke almost at the same time, they both stopped, the former pursed his lips and stopped, the latter immediately continued,

"Your Majesty needs to be careful, this is most likely a trap set by the merchant."

"Business..."

Muttering and repeating again, Cang Lan regained her focus from Yi Yan's appearance, and turned to Qing Ling, her silver eyes shone with a cold metal-like light in the dim car,

"You'd better be prepared to leave the business at any time."

The implication was as abrupt as these words, to confront the merchants.

The solidified killing intent made Qingling pause slightly, and had to temporarily put aside the words of persuasion,

"Shang Yu seems to be very busy recently, and he can't take care of the affairs of the court at all..."

He moved slowly, pulling Cang Lan's hair out of the collar of the cloak, with some hesitation in his voice,

"...Is it related to His Majesty?"

"That's right, our discussion broke up unhappy."

Cang Lan answered casually, and casually rubbed the broken hair in front of Xing Ye's forehead, and finally noticed the other party's embarrassment, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his ice-like expression softened a little.

"discuss?"

Qingling was stunned, he originally thought that Cang Lan and the merchant had been at odds for a long time, what tricks did the merchant use to make it impossible?

"It was Chen Hai who went to negotiate. He wanted to cooperate with some merchants in Jingguo."

Cang Lan knew what Qingling was thinking, if she didn't finish her sentence, the other party might be restless again, just like now, she doesn't want to go back home, but insists on following her to this busy city,

"However, the merchant is always willing to pay a higher price to acquire those merchants, and it seems that he does not intend to make his business grow too big."

"Is this why they frequently fund other merchants recently?"

Qingling thought for a moment, frowned and said,

"The merchant has acted like this, is it already suspicious of Chen Hai's identity..."

"That may not be a bad thing, at least, they will have to spend a lot of money."

Cang Lan didn't answer directly, Qing Ling's heart moved, and then he frowned again,

"Businessmen also followed Chen Hai's example and opened a bank a few years ago, and recently they have become crowded."

"is it?"

After lazily uttering two words, the smile on Cang Lan's lips became as piercing as a knife's edge. In just a moment, he turned to the car window and was submerged in a curtain of light—the restaurant that Mi Ke reported was close at hand. You can see a brunette man sitting upstairs by the window

.

Cang Lan sat up straight involuntarily, the carriage shook, and before it stopped, he got up, but was pulled by his sleeves,

"His Majesty,"

As if not daring to look at Cang Lan's expression, Qing Ling lowered her head and straightened Cang Lan's robe, pulled on the cap of the cloak, and quickly let go,

"Let the criminal guards also..."

"You are all waiting for me in the car."

There was no room for negotiation, Cang Lan repeated it again, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.

Just like what Qing Ling was worried about, Cang Lan was almost sure that there was only one reason for Yi Yan to appear here, that was to draw himself out, and because of this, he didn't want to bring the two of them with him.

When he went up to the second floor, he saw Yan Yan on the very conspicuous seat, and he stopped.

At this moment, Yiyan really didn't change his appearance, the deep foreign silhouette made him look extraordinarily unique, and also extraordinarily isolated, the gazes of the guests upstairs were even more strange when they cast him from time to time.

It was a look of contempt and fear mixed together.

From this point alone, it is not difficult to understand how disapproved the ghost clan is in Jingguo, especially near the royal city!The sect master of Xingzuo actually asked Yiyan to use this method as bait—as long as King Jing is still taking pleasure in raising ghosts, Yiyan will be here if he stays here for a while longer.

One more danger!

Cang Lan only felt something churning in her heart.

What he cherishes the most, being used lightly by others, burning his feelings is not just anger.

Without thinking about it, he walked towards Yi Yan who was alone, completely ignoring Mi Ke's trembling dissuasion behind him.

"What a coincidence."

Cang Lan uninvited and sat across from Yiyan, waiting for the surprised blue eyes to turn to him from downstairs, he had already suppressed the frightening look, and said with a light smile,

"Or are you waiting for me?"

"you……"

Yi Yan looked straight over, and swept across Cang Lan's black cloak, the tension in his eyes dissipated a lot,

"You came so fast..."

"It's really waiting for me."

Cang Lan smiled again, with a bit of real joy in his smile, facing Yi Yan, his bad mood improved a lot for no reason.

The brown-haired man was startled, and looked around in a blink of an eye, the clear blue gradually dimmed.

At the same time, Cang Lan also noticed that there were a few eyes watching him all the time, but he didn't want to pay attention to it at all. He reached out to touch Yi Yan's eyebrows, and said,

"What's the matter? So I'm just being self-indulgent?"

Yi Yan didn't avoid it.

Cang Lan's fingertips slid across the corners of the opponent's eyebrows, the familiar touch and movement made him suddenly reluctant to withdraw his hand.

But there was not much time for him to look back on the past, only to hear Yiyan's deliberately low voice,

"I'm waiting for the sect master. If you're okay, please let me go."

This clumsy lie still made the smile on the corner of Cang Lan's mouth stiff, before Yi Yan could find out, he tapped the token on the table with his chin, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile,

"Then what do you do with the token I gave you?"

"I..." Yi Yan choked and stammered,

"I...I ordered too much food and drink, not enough silver taels...I plan to pay for it..."

The embarrassment of lying is clearly revealed.

Before he finished speaking, he heard someone laughing 'chi', so he couldn't continue with his mouth open.

Yi Yan didn't dislike Cang Lan making fun of him, but at this moment, when he saw this person's unguarded appearance, his anxiety began to swell rapidly.

"Hurry up, the sect master has set up an ambush here, intending to catch you."

Unexpectedly, Yi Yan would warn her, Cang Lan raised her lips, and her rippling smile was like a ray of sunlight shining on the ice crystal sculpture, so dazzling that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

"Yiyan..."

Realizing that Yiyan was staring at him blankly, he smiled even brighter, moved forward, and said in a hoarse voice, bewitchingly,

"Come with me, okay?"

"..."

The magnetic voice whispered in his ear like a coaxing child, Yi Yan paused for a while, then retreated abruptly, with anger flashing in his eyes, and then grabbed Cang Lan's wrist.

Naturally, seeing Yi Yan's anger, Cang Lan almost thought that she would be beaten again.

When he was dazedly preparing to deal with the opponent's fist, he was pulled up and dragged towards the window.With a flash in front of his eyes, he saw that Yi Yan had jumped out of the window, and the force on his arm would drag him down together.

The two jumped out of the window just like that, not to mention that the killer who was waiting for Yiyan's signal in the restaurant didn't react, even Cang Lan was in a hurry and almost fell directly on the street.

"it hurts……!"

He staggered and bumped into the brown-haired man, just stood still, and was pulled forward again, he couldn't help but smiled wryly,

"Yiyan, slow down..."

"You were recognized!"

Yi Yan growled lowly, quickly confirmed the location of his companion's ambush, turned his head amidst the turmoil in the street, and caught a glimpse of the silver-eyed emperor's sloppy smile, and immediately felt that the anxiety that weighed heavily on his heart was really absurd.

I really shouldn't help him...!

This idea popped up in his mind, but for some reason, he didn't let go and continued to pull the opponent to break through.

Ren Yiyan led him to turn around in the street, Cang Lan explored the surroundings with ease, felt a gaze locked on him firmly, he followed the trend, and a graceful figure appeared faintly at the window of the restaurant.

Even though the dim shadow obscured the person's face, Cang Lan could still conclude that it was the sect master of the Xing Tomb, and saw the other party raised his hand, a sharp whistling sound and the arc of light drawn by fireworks appeared at the same time.

The stunned members of the Xingzhong sect finally made a move at this moment, they chased after them one after another, more and more gathered, there were dozens of people, it was clear that Cang Lan was bound to win.

A rush of pursuers seemed to break through the current of the crowd, and rushed after the two of them. The momentum was not huge, but it was enough to attract attention.

A well-planned trap that completely turns into a marathon of attention...it's so much fun.

Cang Lan wanted to laugh, but really laughed out loud.

"you……!"

Hearing this joyful smile, Yi Yan stopped at first, turned his head to face Cang Lan's face, was stunned for a while, but didn't say anything, then turned back and ran wildly.

Feeling the hot hand holding her, Cang Lan withdrew her gaze, and slowly returned her attention to the brown hair in front of her.

It has grown a little longer, and the ends of the hair are softly curled, and the silk-like touch seems to be still between the fingers.

He couldn't help being distracted, and turned a few streets in the busy city, with fewer and fewer assassins behind him, and finally all of them disappeared without letting Yi Yan stop.

On the contrary, the other party stopped suddenly, panting slightly,

"There are no one in front of us, so let's go."

Once again, Yi Yan's plan was beyond Cang Lan's expectations, helping him escape in front of so many people, and going back now, how could this matter be easily exposed,

"You won't come with me?"

"I am the protector of the sect master, and I cannot leave the tomb until I die."

Yi Yan's reasons were of course authentic, obviously he never thought of leaving at all.

The firm eyes are exactly the same as before, the only difference is that his unwavering right now is for others.

Cang Lan stared at Yi Yan intently, for a moment, trying to make her voice sound gentle,

"How do you explain to the door when you go back now?"

Yiyan was silent for a while before saying,

"...The sect master won't blame me..."

He moved his eyes away, and he didn't know whether to avoid Cang Lan's question or his sight,

"Let's go, although they are not familiar with this place, it won't take long to find them."

She didn't believe Yi Yan's hesitant answer at all, but Cang Lan followed the other party's words,

"Do you come here often?"

"It's just a habit. I have caused more trouble than them. I must first find a way out..."

Speaking of this, Cang Lan still doesn't understand that the reason why Yi Yan is so familiar with the way is because he is forced by the danger he faces all the time.

This was enough to make him put all his worries aside and blurted out,

"Go back with me."

That's right, he wants to protect him with his own hands, even if he can't return to the previous relationship, or even if it's just his own wishful thinking, this time, he will definitely protect him and never let him go at every step like this.

Seeing Cang Lan's face approaching, Yi Yan gradually relaxed his breath, it was the first time he had seen that serious expression with frowning brows.

I always thought that the emperor's smile was full of charm, but I didn't want this person to be more difficult to refuse when he didn't smile. It seemed that the person he loved deeply was me, and every smile and frown came from this.

It must be this handsome face——

It messes people's minds, as if directing their brains directly beyond reason...

Yi Yan opened his mouth, unexpectedly forgot what to say, but fortunately, the sound of the wheels came, and he woke up immediately, and punched him reflexively!

I didn't know how much effort I used in my panic, but I found that the silver-haired man was bending over and coughing violently, and it was too late to stop.

"Cang Lan!"

"Lord!"

Before Yan Yan could make another move, the two voices followed the carriage and broke into the alley where they were.At the same time, a black shadow rushed over from the car, barely stopping in front of Cang Lan.

"..."

The person who rushed in front of him was Xing Ye. Cang Lan lowered his head and opened his mouth, but he couldn't utter a single syllable. The old injury on his ribs was hit hard again. He was almost suffocated, and he barely reached out to grab Xing Ye.

"Lord..."

Xing Ye's tone has never fluctuated, only his clenched fists can tell that he is restraining his emotions.

Yi Yan was a little dazed, seeing Cang Lan who was blocked by Xing Ye slowly straighten up, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, not leaving the other party a chance to speak, hurriedly said,

"You let me go last time, now we're done, don't appear in front of me again."

The intentionally raised voice was quick and clear, but Cang Lan didn't seem to hear it, she still stood without saying a word, so quiet that only the soft sound of the wind blowing up the hem of her clothes remained.

When had Qing Ling seen Cang Lan so obstinate and silent, his heart ached, he stepped forward and grabbed the other party's sleeve,

"Your Majesty, let's go back for now. There are quite a few killers in Xingzuo who are good at tracking..."

As he spoke, he almost pulled him away with all his strength.

As if to confirm his words, a sharp whistling sound suddenly sounded not far away, and then the sound of clothes ripping through the air was heard, and an inconspicuous man flashed to the entrance of the alley.

The man looked Cang Lan up and down, and glanced at Yiyan, but he didn't rush to make a move.

However, Yi Yan was obviously in a hurry, unable to hide his expression of struggle. In an instant, he suddenly lowered his face and said to Cang Lan,

"Don't blame me for being rude if you don't leave!"
