30 Young Master Xiao finally got angry
After Ayu knew that Pei Shun had gone to the city to investigate the case, he entered the city overnight.
Yun Zhi originally wanted to ask her when she planned to leave for Yan Kingdom. After all, if she wanted to travel with others, it would be more convenient for Ayu, a girl, than those two grown men.
Who would have thought that as soon as Ayu heard that Pei Shun was not there, he would immediately chase after him. It seemed that she would not be able to leave until the case was completed.
Looking at her back as she hurried away with the small medicine box on her back, Yun Zhi couldn't help but shake his head, "It's true that a female student is not allowed to stay!"
Her motherly tone made Xiao Yi on the side laugh.
He asked her deliberately: "Aren't you going together?"
"What am I going to do!" Yun Zhi rolled his eyes at him, "I'm very discerning, I don't want to be that light bulb!"
Xiao Yi was slightly confused, "Electric...light bulb?"
Yun Zhi hesitated for a moment, then explained with a smile: "It's just...the pestle glows between the two people, and it is usually used to refer to other people standing next to the young couple."
Xiao Yi showed an expression of realization, but couldn't help but ask again: "Is this what you read from the story book?"
Yunzhi nodded without hesitation, "Yes!"
Seeing that he seemed to want to ask more questions, she straightened her face and pretended to threaten: "Young Master Xiao, stop asking about things you shouldn't! Knowing too much will not be good for you!"
Xiao Yi chuckled softly, raised his hand and tapped her forehead lightly, "I think you are really brave now, you dare to talk to me like this."
"There aren't so many taboos between good friends!" Yun Zhi smiled and snorted arrogantly, "You are not my second brother, nor is that His Highness Prince Ning! What am I afraid of!"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yi started coughing again.
Yun Zhi groaned and urged him to go back, "I'll just tell you to wear less clothes and go back to rest today. Don't get sick and you won't be able to investigate the case..."
They were standing in the small square in the middle of the villa. Nearly an hour and a half had passed since Yun Zhi came here for the first time. When they came back from a meal in the middle, it was completely dark, but the place was already full. The lights were turned on, making the sky a little brighter. The people in Yaowang Valley have almost identified the disciples of the Villa, and only the last two rows of people are left.
Qu Shaochen, who was standing next to them, heard their conversation and quickly echoed: "Young Master, please go back first. My subordinates can just watch here. This will be over soon."
"That's fine." Xiao Yi glanced at Yun Zhi's reddish nose, nodded, and then looked at Qu Shaochen, "Thank you for your hard work."
Qu Shaochen immediately clasped his fists in salute, "No hard work, no hard work, this is what subordinates should do."
Yun Zhi also said with concern: "Hallmaster Qu also needs to put on more clothes. It's getting colder and you should pay more attention to your health!"
People in the world have come and gone all year round, and they are all old men. No one has cared about him so carefully. Qu Shaochen was stunned when he heard this, his face couldn't help but blush, and he quickly made another bow.
Xiao Yi glanced at him deeply, raised his hand and tugged at the corner of Yunzhi's clothes, "Let's go back together."
There was really nothing she could do to help at the moment. Once Xiao Yi left, she was unfamiliar with everyone, so it was awkward to stay, so she nodded, "Okay!"
So, the two of them went back to the backyard together.
When they were about to separate, Yun Zhi warned again uneasily: "You must remember to wear more clothes tomorrow. Winter is coming soon, and the weather will only get colder."
She just wanted him to successfully investigate the case so that she and Ayu could leave Ming'an for Yanguo.
Xiao Yi didn't know what she was thinking, so he just curled his lips and nodded obediently, "Okay, so do you."
Her gentle tone can make the moonlight on the horizon sigh.
Yunzhi was startled for a moment, then waved his hand and skipped towards his courtyard.
Looking at her lively figure, Xiao Yi couldn't help but smile. Her peach blossom eyes were as curved as the hooked moon.
After standing there for a long time, until her figure disappeared from sight, he whispered to himself, "Good night, Princess Ning."
**
Yun Zhi returned to the courtyard and went to Lu Yunsheng's place to check first. Seeing that she was indeed fine, he returned to his room with peace of mind.
It was still early, so she took out her sister's diary again, planning to see if she could find anything else.
After reading it for a long time, she found nothing, but she thought of another way - "Records of Jianghu in Zhongzhou".
"Zhongzhou Rivers and Lakes Record" is based on the rankings of the Sword Appreciation Conference held every three years. If the Ah Xuan mentioned in my sister's diary was the first place in that session, his name must be on the Jianghu Records of those years. of. This Qingyi Villa is the residence of the Wulin Alliance, and rankings like this Jianghu Record must have been preserved. As long as the Jianghu Record is found and confirmed that Ah Xuan and his sect Seven Star Island indeed exist, then no matter how long it takes, There must be someone who knows what happened that year.
Then will the Empress of Yan Kingdom be her sister?
If not, why does her handwriting look exactly like her sister's? Why does she also know things that belong to her world?
If so, how did my sister suddenly become the empress?
These questions kept lingering in Yunzhi's mind. She became drowsy thinking about it and fell asleep soon.
The next day, Yun Zhi just woke up and ran to Xiao Yi. She wanted to ask him for the "Records of Jianghu in Zhongzhou" over the years, but Xiao Yi was not there. The disciple guarding the door said that there was news from Pei Shaoxia. There was progress in the case, and the young master went to the city early in the morning.
Yun Zhi was about to go back to pack her things and go to the city to find them, but Lu Yunsheng came to find her.
Hearing that she was going to the city to find Xiao Yi, Lu Yunsheng couldn't help but frowned, "Zhi'er, when did you meet Mr. Xiao?"
Seeing her eyes full of worry, Yun Zhi thought she was worried about the character of Xiao Yi and the others, so he quickly replied: "Don't worry, eldest sister, they are all good people. I have known Xiao Yi since I was at Duke Anguo's Mansion. He is my second brother’s friend!”
Lu Yunsheng's brows furrowed even more tightly, "You... you escaped from the palace, could it be because of him?"
Yunzhi was stunned for a moment, and was about to deny it, but then he thought, if he said it was not the case, Lu Yunsheng would definitely continue to ask for the reason, and it would be even harder to explain, so it would be better to just deal with it first.
Sorry, Xiao Yi, I can only block it with you first!
So he gritted his teeth and nodded, "Yes."
Lu Yunsheng's eyes widened immediately, "Does my second brother know about this?"
Yun Zhi coughed and shook his head bravely, "It should be... I still... don't know yet."
Lu Yunsheng looked at her with complicated eyes, "As for His Highness Prince Ning..."
"Xiao Yi has a way!" Yun Zhi blurted out, and then quickly added, "I didn't ask for details."
As she said that, she made a pitiful expression and held back tears, "Oh, eldest sister, don't ask, it's really... not easy for us..."
Seeing her tearful look, Lu Yunsheng sighed several times, and her eyebrows became more worried, "But... nothing is absolute. What if Prince Ning and your Majesty find out, not to mention our Duke Anguo's Mansion?" What will happen? The Qingyi Villa will probably be implicated as well, so what will happen to you...you...then?"
"It shouldn't be discovered..."
She didn't think so much when she casually picked someone up to block her, and now she lowered her head and picked at her fingers, not knowing how to respond to her.
She remained silent without saying a word. Lu Yunsheng was worried for a long time, sighed heavily, and asked: "Zhi'er, have you...really thought about it?"
This time Yun Zhi didn't dare to answer easily. She was afraid that Lu Yunsheng would say something again that she couldn't answer.
But Lu Yunsheng added: "Actually, Mr. Xiao is more compatible with you than His Highness Prince Ning. If you are really sincere, I will naturally find a way to help you."
"Ah?" Yun Zhi looked up in shock. Lu Yunsheng still had a bit of worry on his face, but more of it was determination and concern.
Yun Zhi suddenly didn't dare to look into her eyes. She lowered her head again, not knowing whether she should laugh or cry, "Then, thank you eldest sister."
"But..." Lu Yunsheng's tone suddenly changed and he stood up, "I have to make sure that Young Master Xiao will not betray you!"
After saying that, he also pulled Yun Zhi up, "Let's go find him together!"
Yun Zhi said hurriedly: "I'm not in a hurry at this moment!"
She hasn't had time to talk to Xiao Yi yet!
Don’t reveal your secret right now!
Lu Yunsheng said seriously: "Of course I'm worried! If he is sincere, I will have to help you find a way quickly. If he is not sincere, then I will take you back right away!"
Yun Zhi saw that she was determined and worried that if he was coy again, she would be suspicious, so he had to take her into the city to find Xiao Yi.
In the meeting hall of Ming'an City Government Office.
Xiao Yi, Pei Shun, and A Yu are discussing the case.
When he looked up, he saw Lu Yunsheng pulling Yun Zhi in with a frown on his face, and the latter had a look of despair on his face.
Seeing the three of them, Yun Zhi regained his composure for a moment, secretly glanced at Xiao Yi, and called him in a low voice: "Xiao Yi!"
"Don't say anything yet!" Lu Yunsheng turned around and glared at her. Yun Zhi said oh and shut his mouth obediently.
Lu Yunsheng looked at Xiao Yi again, his expression a little serious, "Mr. Xiao, could you please take a step to talk?"
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Yun Zhi with confusion. She was blinking at him with a panicked face, and he couldn't help but frown.
Lu Yunsheng seemed to be aware of it and looked back. Yunzhi immediately closed his eyes and pretended to be nonchalant and started to look around.
Lu Yunsheng had already turned around and walked out of the hall. Xiao Yi looked at Yunzhi's expression of hesitation, thought for a moment, and followed him.
As soon as they left, Ayu immediately came over, "Zhizhi, what's going on? Your sister and Xiao Yi...?"
The soul of Bagua shines in Ayu's eyes.
Yunzhi looked dejected, "Don't mention it, I'm finished this time..."
Pei Shun also became curious, "What's wrong?"
Yun Zhi hesitated for a long time without saying a word. She still wanted to be embarrassed. It was really difficult for her to explain such nonsense in front of Pei Shun and A Yu.
The more she said nothing, the more curious Ayu became, and he gradually began to make random guesses, "No way? Does your sister have a crush on Xiao Yi?"
"Oh my God, it turns out that the reason your Crown Princess of Yuan Kingdom escaped from marriage and left the palace was because of him?!"
"When did they get better? It couldn't have been in Luozhou..."
"Ah...it turns out he left Luozhou just to chase her!"
The more Ayu guessed, the more outrageous she became. Yunzhi quickly interrupted her, "That's not the case! They are not..."
"Not what?"
Xiao Yi's voice suddenly came from behind. Yun Zhi's spine was shaken and he shook his head hastily, "No, no, it's nothing."
She didn't dare to look back or look at the person behind her.
Xiao Yi stopped beside her, tilted his head and glanced at her. Suddenly, he raised his hand and hugged her shoulders, and the faint woody fragrance penetrated her nose from him. Yun Zhi immediately opened his eyes, and even I dare not move.
"Eldest sister, please rest assured. Once I promised, I will never break my promise! Our two close friends are also present today, and we consider ourselves as witnesses."
His tone was light, yet inexplicably serious.
Yun Zhi was stunned for a moment, then quietly raised his head. He was also looking down at her, his peach blossoms flowing affectionately. She was stunned again, and a blush appeared on her face unconsciously.
Lu Yunsheng saw the affection between the two of them and received Xiao Yi's assurance, so he finally relaxed and said solemnly: "That's all. Mr. Xiao, please remember that I am the Crown Princess of Dayuan, and our father is the Princess of Dayuan." Yuan Xiangguo, if you dare to betray Zhi'er, even the entire martial arts world will not be able to protect you!"
Xiao Yi was also very serious, "I will not let the eldest sister and the Prime Minister bother."
Lu Yunsheng hummed, "I wish you could remember what I said today!"
"That's natural."
Xiao Yi responded and took the person into his arms slightly. Yun Zhi leaned on his shoulder very cooperatively and gave Lu Yunsheng a perfect smile, "Sister, are you relieved now? "
Lu Yunsheng frowned and glared at her, then whispered: "Little girls don't know how to be more reserved!"
Yun Zhi groaned, quickly jumped out of Xiao Yi's arms, and went to coax her with a smile, "Be reserved, be reserved, how can you not be reserved!"
Lu Yunsheng smiled helplessly, raised his hand and tapped her head gently, without saying anything else.
Yun Zhi led the people out, and secretly put his hands behind his back and gave a thumbs up to the people behind him.
Ayu was so surprised that he couldn't even close his mouth. Seeing the little movements of the two sisters, he couldn't help but move closer to Xiao Yi and asked in a low voice: "What's going on? Does she know everything?"
Xiao Yi didn't say anything or explain.
After a while, Yun Zhi came back again. Lu Yunsheng was not interested in their investigation and was afraid of seeing the body again, so he followed a few disciples of the villa back to the villa to wait.
After entering the hall door, Yun Zhicai dared to let out a long breath, as if he was surviving the disaster.
"It's terrible, it's terrible!" She sighed first, then stepped forward and patted Xiao Yi's shoulder twice, praising: "Xiao Yi, fortunately you reacted quickly enough! If it weren't for you, my eldest sister would definitely I just discovered it, thank you so much this time!”
Xiao Yi's eyes were indifferent and he didn't say anything.
Ayu looked at them in surprise and almost understood, "So you guys are not..."
"Of course not!" Yun Zhi immediately denied it, but when he saw that Xiao Yi's face didn't look good, he began to feel guilty, "I didn't discuss it with you in advance, are you... angry?"
Xiao Yi had no expression on his face. He turned around and walked out without even looking at her.
