The daily life of the eldest son

It would take more than two hours to run non-stop from Chang'an to Puzhou. The time is not too long, but they are just going to Puzhou to pick up people. It hasn't arrived yet, and my brother who is far away in Puzhou will not notice anything wrong.I really want to thank that elder brother for being cautious. If the brother and sister hadn't set their respective departures from Chang'an for a long time in order to avoid suspicion, they wouldn't have had such ample time.

So Ye Yi was not in a hurry, he stopped and walked all the way, but was very concerned about the horse's feelings, and when the group of four finally arrived in Puzhou, it was already dark.

Looking at the closed city gate, Ye Yi took out the document that Li Yan gave him from the bag, and there was also a permission to enter and leave the city, and handed these two things to the guards, and the four of them passed smoothly. Entered Puzhou City.Because it was already the time of night ban in Puzhou City, the four of Ye Yi were escorted by the city guards to the prefect's mansion.

Waiting for the guards to confirm the seal on the document, waiting for the guards to get together the guards, waiting for the Marquis Wu in the Wuhou Pavilion to understand the situation and open the gate, waiting for the group of four people to finally arrive at the Taishou Mansion, and the Taishou Mansion has already been there. Ready to entertain.

Turning over and dismounting, Ye Yi bowed to the Puzhou prefect with a modest smile and a trace of exhaustion from running around, and said: "Ye Yi, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, has met the prefect Wang."

Tang Xiao and the others who were following Ye Yi also bowed, but did not make a sound.

The identities of the three of them are not important.

Wang Taishou smiled honestly and said enthusiastically to Ye Yi: "My family doesn't need to be too polite, your aunt has been waiting for you inside for a long time."

Ye Yi straightened up, and said with a smile: "I only come at night, so I'm going to cause uncle a lot of trouble."

"It's okay, go in quickly, your aunt is still waiting for you." Wang Taishou slapped Ye Yi lightly on the back, and then carried Ye Yi into the prefect's mansion.

Tang Xiao glanced at Wang Taishou's hand on Ye Yi's back, and followed him into the prefect's mansion.

"By the way, Uncle, although Yi is here for official business, can I ask Uncle to keep it a secret for now?" On the way to the main room of the prefect's mansion, Ye Yi suddenly said to Prefect Wang.

"Oh?" Wang Taishou turned his head to look at Ye Yi, "Are you here to arrest the important criminal? Are you keeping it secret because you are afraid that the other party will escape after hearing the news?"

Ye Yi smiled and nodded, "That's exactly the case. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it's better for the enemy to be open and the enemy to be in the dark."

Wang Taishou laughed loudly and said: "As expected of the young minister of Dali Temple, you really have a careful mind! Since it is for business, I will fully cooperate, and I will order them to keep their mouths in check. You come here , It’s just that my nephew came to Puzhou to visit my aunt.”

Speaking to the outside world like this, no one will deliberately find out who the nephew of the prefect of Puzhou is.

Thoughtful?In fact, Wang Taishou wanted to say that he was full of tricks, right?

"Thank you, Uncle." Ye Yi cupped his hands at Wang Taishou, smiling like a spring breeze.

Stepping into the front courtyard of the prefect's mansion together with Wang Taishou, Ye Yi stood still in front of a dignified woman, and said respectfully: "Yi has seen my aunt, and I greet you from time to time, please forgive me."

Hearing the sound, Ye Chengyan opened her eyes, but the rosary in her hand was still pinched and rattled.

"It's good to be safe. Are you handling the case for Dali Temple again?"

"Exactly." Ye Yi took out a wooden sign from the bag on his body, took a step forward, handed it to Ye Chengyan, and said, "Yi set out from Chang'an to Puzhou when he got the order this afternoon. I came in a hurry and didn't prepare any presents for my aunt. Please forgive me. This amulet was obtained from a monk I knew well. It is exquisitely carved. Yi has been thinking of entrusting someone to bring it to my aunt, but it didn't work out. I have the opportunity to send it to my aunt myself. It is not a rare item, and my aunt laughed."

"Really."

In the short two-word answer, Ye Yi couldn't guess what the two words meant, but the amulet in his hand was taken away by Ye Chengyan.

Ye Chengyan looked at the amulet carefully, then showed a loving smile to Ye Yi, and said: "The carving is really exquisite, and it is an excellent sandalwood. Although it is not rare, it is also rare. What's more rare is Ayi has a heart, but it's hard for you to remember that my aunt is so rare about these things."

Seeing this loving smile, Ye Yi heaved a sigh of relief.

His aunt was married very early, but she followed her husband to Puzhou three years ago. Before that, she had lived in Chang'an and had close contacts with the family.

Although this aunt is a woman who believes in Buddhism, she is extremely difficult to get along with. She looks kind and kind, but she has inherited her grandfather's strength and stubbornness. Lianhua is best at inverting black and white in a serious manner. If she wants to teach someone a lesson, she must have a good reason. What she says is well-founded and no one can refute it. The only person in Ye Yi's memory who dared to quarrel with his grandfather is also the most difficult elder in Ye Yi's memory.

In short, in front of this aunt, Ye Yi did not dare to be careless at all, otherwise he would be held back and taught a lesson.

"It's really hard for you to come to Puzhou from Chang'an. I have my aunt here, so don't go to live in the post house, just live in the prefect's mansion. I have already ordered the guest room to be cleaned up. I will take you here. Let's go."

"Thank you, aunt." Living in the prefect's mansion also just suits his wishes, so it's more like a nephew visiting his aunt.

Ye Yi winked at Tang Xiao, and the four of them followed the maidservant of the prefect's mansion to the guest room.

The prefect's mansion prepared three guest rooms for the group of four, one for Ye Yi, one for Tang Xiao, and one for the rest of them. Obviously, he still remembered that Tang Xiao was the grandson of Tang Taiwei, so he gave preferential treatment.

It was still early, and Ye Yi, who couldn't stay still in the guest room, was about to go to Tang Xiao, but when he opened the door, he saw the maidservant of the prefect's mansion...but it didn't look like a maidservant in this attire.

"I'm sorry to disturb the young master's rest. The prefect invites the young master to the warm pavilion of the study."

"Really?" Ye Yi looked at the woman in front of him calmly, and said tentatively, "Miss, I'm in trouble."

After Ye Yi finished speaking, the woman's eyes flashed, and she glanced at Ye Yi with some surprise, but she instantly moved away when she met Ye Yi's probing gaze.

This woman was indeed no ordinary maidservant.

But if it's not the maidservant, who is this woman?My aunt's daughter didn't grow up like this, not to mention that cousin is married, so she wouldn't show up at the prefect's mansion on such a night, and even come to his door.

Ye Yi stood inside the door and looked at the woman at the door with a gentle smile, but in his mind he was quickly thinking about whether or not he could go to the Nuan Pavilion in the study.

"Brother Yi, what's the matter?"

Tang Xiao's voice suddenly came from the side, Ye Yi's eyes lit up, and when he turned his head, he saw Tang Xiao walking quickly.

"A Xiao, follow me to the Nuan Pavilion in the study."
