Outside the window of the tea house, the winter jasmine flowers are blooming beautifully, smiling timidly on the branches with the breeze.

Looking down from upstairs, the streets of the capital are more prosperous than ever.

Merchants and peddlers not only occupied both sides of the street, but also occupied the originally spacious covered bridge, where two carriages approaching were confronting each other.

Pedestrians holding things accidentally bumped into each other while walking on the street, and the things scattered all over the ground. The two blamed each other and neither would let the other go.

At this time, a group of well-dressed nobles rushed to play with each other carrying bird cages, knocked down two pedestrians who were picking up things, yelled a few times, and then rushed to the bridge again, squeezing between the people and the car , kicked and knocked down many things and people, and ran towards the moat with a laugh.

"Guest officer, the tea you want."

Xiao Er came to the second floor with the tea, found the noble gentleman with the veiled hat, and placed the tea in front of him.

The young master was dressed in green bamboo and white clothes, and was sitting upright looking out the window.After hearing Xiao Er's words, the young master nodded slightly to him, and then took out a piece of silver.

Xiao Er took it and thanked him repeatedly, and heard a clear and pleasant voice coming from under the hood.

"Dare to ask how to get to the Zhao residence?"

Xiao Er paused: "Which one is the guest officer asking?"

"Minister of the Ministry of Punishment."

Xiaoer thought for a while, and said with a look of distress: "Forgive me, I have only been in the capital for two years. I only know Mr. Xiao, the servant of the Ministry of punishment, and I have never heard of Mr. Zhao."

Hearing this, the young master raised his head, the white gauze fluttered slightly with the movement, and a face that was absolutely clean and dusty disappeared in an instant.

"Where?"

Xiao Er wanted to take another look, but the veil was closed, so he had no choice but to reply: "Go out of the building and turn right, pass the corridor bridge, and walk about [-] steps."

The young master wrote down his words: "Thank you."

Xiao Er thought that he would get up and leave immediately, but after the other party finished asking, he turned his head and looked out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Then guest officer, take it easy, and call the younger one at any time if you need anything."

Xiao Er withdrew after finishing speaking.

After he left, He Yanzhi looked away, lifted the white gauze, and reached out to pick up the teapot.

The slender white fingers hooked the handle of the pot, lifted it up slightly, and the mouth of the teapot was aimed at the teacup, and poured the tea into it tremblingly until it overflowed the rim of the cup.

"Peng!"

The two carriages on the covered bridge finally collided with each other due to a dispute, and the surrounding peddlers rushed forward, taking the opportunity to pick up some valuables.

He Yanzhi was brought back to his senses by the impact sound. He looked at the overflowing tea, took a cup of tea and drank it indifferently, left the silver and walked out of the teahouse.

On the sentry tower in the capital, the soldiers were drowsy.

He Yanzhi no longer cared about them, and walked quickly through the crowd.

"Hey, have you heard? Which adult is going to be beheaded for public display."

"That's right, how old is this? Why are there so many in these years?"

"It's not that Lord Xiao, don't you know?"

"I don't know, let's hear it."

"..."

He Yanzhi heard Xiao Hongyin's name, and silently stopped in front of the roadside stall.

"Prime Minister Xiao's case was overturned by the King of Xizhou, and now, Cheng Xiao's son is collecting debts from those treacherous officials!"

"I said, no wonder so many officials have been killed in recent years."

"Killing someone's life will always be paid back. I don't know how long this Lord Xiao is going to kill?"

"Hey, tell me, are these people really treacherous ministers, will they..."

"Hush—be careful not to be overheard about the matter from above! Come, come, drink!"

"..."

He Yanzhi happened to be standing in front of the rouge shop, and the owner of the stall saw that he was a son, so he approached cheerfully and asked, "Your master is buying rouge for his wife? Let me introduce you."

He Yanzhi had no choice but to bite the bullet and pick it up. While listening to the stall owner's introduction absent-mindedly, he wanted to inquire about some more things, but those people stopped talking after a few words, and instead talked about Xiao Hongyin's affair.

"What's the matter with you, guest officer? But you feel dissatisfied?"

The stall owner saw that He Yanzhi put the rouge heavily, thinking that there was something wrong with the rouge.

"this one."

He Yanzhi threw down an ingot of silver, put the rouge in his arms and was about to leave, but the stall owner behind him eagerly opened his mouth to call him.

"Guest officer, be careful!"

Simultaneously with the voice of the stall owner, there was also the laughter of the group of dandies.

He Yanzhi only felt that he was suddenly surrounded by loud laughter, the exhaustion from running around for days hadn't dissipated, and the cries of dudes were too harsh, He Yanzhi suddenly felt powerless after being dizzy.

"Get out of the way!"

"Guest officer!"

"Be careful!"

"..."

He Yanzhi didn't have time to react, and instinctively took him to the side to hide, but even so, those dudes couldn't stop the car, turned a corner and rushed straight towards him.

"Call-"

With a long neighing sound, those dandies fell to the ground like porcelain vases.

The horse's hooves were lifted high, jumped over the obstacles on the ground, and came to He Yanzhi like a hurricane. Then a slender and powerful hand stretched out from the horse's back, and before everyone could react, he grabbed He Yanzhi and fished him onto the horse. Walk away.

He Yanzhi felt the world spinning for a while, the piercing laughter disappeared, and his consciousness slowly recovered following the sound of horseshoes.

Seeing the chaotic scene he was in just now gradually drifting away from him, his heart also lifted.

The veil was blown over by the wind and left far behind.

He Yanzhi's face was exposed to the blue sky, he was so frightened that he clenched his clothes tightly with both hands, and buried his face in his firm chest. At the same time, he felt the arms around his waist tightened even more.

The fast horse galloped all the way, and the surrounding people had no time to see who it was, so Xiao Hongyin led the people into an unoccupied deep alley. After dismounting from the horse, He Yanzhi was held against the wall before his feet touched the ground. the right to speak.

As if suffocating, the tide came extremely violently.

He Yanzhi is like a drowning person, his whole body is surrounded by scalding sea water, his hands are weak but he hugs the other's shoulder tightly, even if he drowns, he will never let go.

The lips became red and swollen within a moment, and there was a hint of fishy sweetness in the tossing and turning.He Yanzhi felt that the other party was trying to restrain himself, but even so, it took a long time before he had a chance to breathe.

"Yanzhi... Yanzhi..."

Hearing the other party calling his name over and over again, kissing his whole face with warm lips, and then rubbing his neck and greedily biting his earlobe, He Yanzhi tightened his arms unconsciously.

"Ayin, first...let me down..."

Xiao Hongyin kissed himself for a moment, then slowly put the person down, wrapping his hands around his slender waist.

The two were still hugging each other tightly, and He Yanzhi buried his head in his neck, feeling the changes in Xiao Hongyin during the past few years of separation.

Now, he was completely half a head taller than himself.

"Ayin."

He Yanzhi caressed Xiao Hongyin's back, leaned on his shoulder and asked with a smile: "There are so many people on the street, how do you know it's me?"

"...I'm going crazy, why can't I recognize..." Xiao Hongyin buried his head in He Yanzhi's neck, and bit his jade neck with force.

He Yanzhi was bitten by him, but he didn't push him away and let him bite.

The sun was blocked by the deep alley, and the two figures merged with the shadow at the bottom of the alley.

The horse was forced to stop at the entrance of the alley, stamping its hooves dissatisfiedly, and the movement it made aroused the curiosity of some people.

Seeing that the situation was not good, He Yanzhi gritted his teeth and pushed Xiao Hongyin away to deal with the horse.

"Wait here for me."

Xiao Hongyin struggled for a long time before he forced his gaze away from him, and then rode away at the fastest speed.

Seeing that he left, the common people were still curious about the situation in the deep alley, and they all came together to look inside, but they saw that the inside was empty, so they had to leave disappointed.

He Yanzhi turned over to the other side of the wall, and after hearing that the people were gradually dispersing, he silently found a corner to wait.

While waiting for Xiao Hongyin to come back, he listened to the sound of silk and bamboo coming from the building next door. He looked up and found that it was actually a brothel.

Laughter and laughter accompanied by the sound of silk and bamboo, He Yanzhi somehow remembered the discussion of those people in the tavern, and the stone at his feet was kicked and rolled far away for no reason.

He Yanzhi waited in the corner for a long time, when he heard movement from the wall not far away, before turning around to look, he was pulled into his arms from behind.

"That horse has a strong temper, it took a little more work, I'm late."

He Yanzhi's hands were held in the palms of his hands, and when he lowered his head, he saw the slight red marks drawn by the reins on the back of his hands.

"I can't even restrain a horse, but I'm promising." He Yanzhi covered his hand and stroked it, which made people's heart itch.

Xiao Hongyin took the opportunity to peck the man's face and covered up the blood-stained cuff.

"Did anyone find out?" He Yanzhi asked.

Xiao Hongyin brushed against his hair and shook his head: "I originally thought how to pick you up, but who would have thought that you would just come back like this."

"Is it bad?"

"Okay, very good. If I don't see you again, I will go to the front line."

"I will say it."

He Yanzhi turned around and looked at him, those amber eyes were shining.

"I guess He Yu won't let me enter Beijing so easily, so he came here first. How is the situation on your side now?" He Yanzhi worried. Although he is back now, it is not easy to show up in an open and aboveboard manner.

"It's okay, don't worry." Now that his sweetheart is in his arms, Xiao Hongyin only wants to take him back quickly, and don't ask him to leave him again.

Xiao Hongyin briefly explained the current situation to him, and then promised: "They won't be happy for long, Yanzhi will go back with me, just wait for the show."

As soon as he heard that Xiao Hongyin was taken away by He Yu, He Yanzhi immediately became nervous and touched him up and down: "Did he do anything to you?!"

Xiao Hongyin restrained his hand and pressed it on his chest: "I'm fine, don't worry."

"You promised him?"

"Well, but he is not the only one who agrees."

The other party only gave a rough outline, but He Yanzhi still didn't understand something, and wanted to continue asking, but Xiao Hongyin blocked his mouth: "I'll talk about the rest when I get back. For now, follow me first."

As he said that, He Yanzhi's feet hung in the air again. He was carried by someone and jumped over several high walls, and finally fell into the backyard of the brothel.

"Hey, isn't this Mrs. Xiao? Why did you come in from here?"

Xiao Hongyin walked up to the high pavilion from the narrow ladder on one side with his hands in his arms, and happened to bump into the old bustard coming downstairs on the way, Xiao Hongyin called her to let her lead the way.

He Yanzhi was surprised by Xiao Hongyin's behavior. He looked at Xiao Hongyin in disbelief, trying to see a trace of discomfort on his face, but the other party not only looked calm, but also revealed joy.

"Do you know what this place is?" He Yanzhi couldn't help asking him, but Xiao Hongyin replied calmly: "Looking for flowers and asking the land of willows, why don't you know."

He Yanzhi silently clenched his fists.

The old bustard led them to the highest show pavilion, opened the door to let them in, saw He Yanzhi inadvertently, and said pleasantly: "This young man is handsome, but he looks a bit fierce. Master Xiao is so lucky!"

Xiao Hongyin smiled, put He Yanzhi in front of the dressing table, turned around and told the bustard: "Invite the two girls, Rongcui, and don't make any publicity."

The old bustard retreated in response, He Yanzhi's face was completely gloomy, and when Xiao Hongyin's hand was put on his hands, he stood up suddenly and looked directly into his eyes.

Xiao Hongyin was at a loss: "Yanzhi?"
