When Jian Liuyun saw Yi Xiaodao appear, he immediately jumped through the window, jumped out of the window, and disappeared without a trace.
"Knife..." He Yue'er muttered and shrank behind Sun Hong.
Yi Xiaodao remained silent and walked straight into the house with "Siqing" in hand. He came to the window and looked out. Jian Liuyun had already disappeared without a trace.
"Master Yi, didn't you say... we won't arrive until tomorrow?" When Sun Hong saw Yi Xiaodao here, she knew in her heart that all the female guards outside had probably been knocked down. Seeing that Yi Xiaodao was still calm and his sword was still unsheathed, Sun Hong plucked up the courage to talk to Yi Xiaodao.
"Go faster." Yi Xiaodao replied calmly.
Sun Hong swallowed. This was not "faster" like Yi Xiaodao's understatement. It was suddenly a day ahead of schedule, what an amazing speed...
There were four teacups on the table. After Yi Xiaodao sat down, he instinctively prepared to reach for He Yue'er, but stopped halfway, picked up the teapot and poured himself another cup.
"Where did you start listening?" He Yuer asked gently.
"That woman didn't want you to tell me that Brother Hu was dead." Yi Xiaodao took a sip of tea and slightly raised the corners of his mouth. Yi Xiaodao was very happy to be able to drink Wancheng's tea again.
Sun Hong felt helpless, why didn't this adult come earlier? He didn't hear the "fake marriage" sentence that he should have heard at the beginning, but he could clearly hear the "Death of Hu Lishan" that he shouldn't have heard at the back.
He Yue'er said in a low voice: "Brother Hu died in order to protect me..."
"How could he know that you are in danger when he is in the palace? Someone must have told him that this person... just wants him to die!" Yi Xiaodao continued following He Yue'er's speculation just now: "It's still very It's possible that he is the master of the woman in black just now."
"Yes, I started to doubt it when she asked me not to tell you the truth. Unfortunately, her kung fu is too high, and we can't do anything to her..." He Yue'er saw that Yi Xiaodao was as sharp and courageous as usual, He also talked a little more.
"Who are you married to?" Yi Xiaodao asked suddenly.
When He Yue'er heard Yi Xiaodao's question, he timidly looked at Sun Hong next to him. Sun Hong quietly turned his head away, pretending not to see or hear: Yi Xiaodao is a popular person in front of His Majesty, and His Majesty asked him to protect him. He Yue'er just wanted to appease Yi Xiaodao. If he is biased towards He Yue'er, he is not taking His Majesty seriously and is putting the cart before the horse.
Sun Hong saw clearly that it was difficult for an upright official to take care of household chores. When Yi Xiaodao talked about "getting married", he became blind and mute.
"Ge Cifeng..." He Yue'er's voice was barely audible.
"Ge Cifeng? Such a familiar name..." Yi Xiaodao started thinking in his mind, and suddenly remembered that Dongfang Zhong once said at the foot of Laoshan Mountain, "With Ge Cifeng in check, he can take the opportunity to control Donglu." It seems that the two of them have reached an agreement...
"But what General Chu Xiang? Or... King Chu Xiang?" Yi Xiaodao asked.
He Yue'er was silent for a while, took a deep breath, and said with a brave face: "He is the crown prince of King Xiang of Chu." Then he told everything about Ge Cifeng's arrival in the capital, how he met her, etc.
"He found your parents and used this to blackmail you?" Yi Xiaodao felt a little angry.
"Yeah, but we just paid homage. With Sister Hong here, he didn't do anything to me..." He Yue'er's voice was louder, for fear that Yi Xiaodao might not hear clearly.
When Yi Xiaodao heard the word "worship", he gradually clenched his hands and asked, "Why don't you discuss it with me? You didn't even tell me, so you returned to Wancheng alone! I entrusted His Majesty and Hu Lishan to protect me in the capital. You, why do you want to come back?"
Her parents were being held involuntarily, and He Yue'er was full of grievances and wanted to talk to Yi Xiaodao. She thought that Yi Xiaodao could comfort her, but what she didn't expect was a series of "interrogations"...
He Yue'er suddenly stood up: "Where were you when someone in the capital wanted to do harm to me? Where were you when Ge Cifeng threatened me with my parents? You promised me that you would help me find my father." Mother, how long has it been!"
Yi Xiaodao's hand clenched the scabbard tightly, so hard that his knuckles turned white. He tried his best to restrain himself and said: "I've asked your Majesty, I've asked Brother Hu, I've asked Brother Xie..."
"You only ask for this and that! If you hadn't asked for Brother Hu, how could Brother Hu die? You just dislike me as a burden and leave me alone in the capital. Have you ever thought about it for me!?" He Yue The child burst into tears, venting all his grievances.
"But we have already worshiped... Forget it, I wish you a happy wedding..." Yi Xiaodao stood up and walked out the door. Halfway through, he turned his back to the two of them and said, "You can go back to the capital without aiding the guards. If your Majesty asks, just say that I asked you to go back."
Sun Hong looked at He Yue'er who was lying on the table, crying bitterly, and hesitated: "But Miss Yue'er..."
Yi Xiaodao had already walked into the yard. Hearing Sun Hong's hesitation, Yi Xiaodao kicked up a few wooden boards on the ground. The wooden boards flew towards the house and happened to get stuck on the window that had just been broken by Jian Liuyun. He looked up at the bright moon in the sky and sneaked into the forest alone.
Sun Hong nodded repeatedly: "I understand, I understand."
The female guards were woken up in the camp and drowsily heard that they were about to return to the capital. Many women thought that He Yue'er was determined to go to Chuxiang, and even wanted to come over and try to persuade him. The imperial court was about to go to war with Chu Xiang, and everyone knew that they were not willing to stand on the opposite side of He Yue'er.
Yi Xiaodao disappeared, and the female guards all went down the mountain. He Yue'er sat alone in the room and cried loudly for a long time until late at night...
The door of He Yue'er's house was still ajar. It was still slightly cold in the early spring night. A gust of wind blew. He Yue'er shivered for no reason and stood up to close the door.
"Wow!"
A grimace suddenly stuck out from the roof, and He Yue'er was so frightened that she sat down on the ground. "Ghost Face" reached out and took off the mask on his face. It turned out to be Jian Liuyun: "How is it? Master Yi is gone?"
With tears still on his face, He Yue'er got up from the ground and said, "Let's go, are you satisfied?"
"I didn't think so. Whether he leaves or not doesn't affect my master's plan. Aren't we worried that you might start a fight? I haven't decided who to help yet." Jian Liuyun said with a smile, and then stared at He Yue'er asked: "Crying? Seriously, did he hit you?"
He Yue'er ignored her and was attracted by the bright moon in the sky. Just a few days after the Lantern Festival, the moon was still bright and bright.
"My father and mother are both illiterate. It happened to be night when my mother gave birth to me, so my father named me He Yue'er after the moon. He Yue'er... such a simple name. Every summer, I My parents took me to enjoy the cool air in the yard and admire the moon... During the Mid-Autumn Festival, they even brought me a big mooncake from the city, which was so delicious..."
"There is also Yi Xiaodao. When I first met him, there was also a bright moon in the sky. I opened the door and saw a daredevil trying to touch me. My parents were not at home at the time. I was angry and scared. If it weren't for Xiang Xiang Lian'er is with him, I'm really going to be scared to death by him..."
"Growing up, I only went to the city a few times with my parents, but that time I followed them so far for no reason. I walked on mountain roads, entered Wancheng, and hid from officers and soldiers. I found that other people were really nice and took good care of me. He was very considerate, and always gave us food first every time. Later, he was matched by Xiang Lian'er, and they got married out of nowhere... In fact, I was quite happy."
"You know? When I knew the news that my parents were alive, my first reaction was shock and joy... But I also occasionally thought that if my parents were gone, it might not be a bad thing for me. In this way, I You can always stay in the capital and be with Yi Xiaodao. Do you think I am selfish and unfilial? "
He Yue'er looked at the bright moon and talked a lot by herself.
The sound was followed by thunderous snoring.
He Yue'er turned her head and looked at Jian Liuyun who was sleeping on the table. She resisted the urge to punch her twice and sighed: "I know, you are also a hard-working person." After saying that, he grabbed the One of his clothes was draped over her body. He opened the door and came to the yard.
The lonely shadow looks at the moon.
Jian Liuyun reached out and grabbed the clothes on his body, lifted them up, and covered his head, while tears slowly flowed down...
…
In an inn in Wancheng.
"How's it going? Still can't go back?"
"Your Highness, the return route has been blocked, and everyone coming and going must be carefully checked. The villain may have passed by. If His Royal Highness..."
Ge Cifeng hammered the table hard: "What a Zhou Ziru, he trapped me in Wancheng!"
The person standing next to him was Mao Tingsong, who had escaped alone before: "Your Highness, maybe it was not the Zhou family's boy who did it."
Ge Cifeng looked at him in surprise: "Nowadays, he arranges the troops and affairs of the court. If not him, who else could it be?"
Mao Tingsong smiled and said: "It is true that Zhou Ziru is in charge of the affairs of the court. That is why His Majesty gave him this power on the pretext that the Queen Mother was recently deceased and was unable to govern. There are so many veterans in the court, how can they obey a young and a half young man? That young man is eager to wait at this moment. Start a war with Chu Xiang, make military exploits, and gain a firm foothold in the court. If you don't return to Chu Xiang, the prince will not start a war, and Zhou Ziru has no time to waste with us."
"Since it's not Zhou Ziru, could it be... His Majesty?" Ge Cifeng asked with some confusion.
"Inseparable. After your Majesty faked his death last year, he seems to have become a different person. Now he loves the people like a son and is highly praised by the people. But I don't know why we are trapped in Wancheng and won't let us leave." Mao Ting Song was also very puzzled.
"You have said that Your Majesty loves the people as his own children, so of course he does not want to see the two armies fighting. It will take as long as it takes." A voice came from outside the door, interrupting the conversation between the two.
Ge Cifeng stood up quickly. Mao Tingsong immediately retreated to the window when he heard the sound. As long as the situation was not right, he would leave immediately without caring about Ge Cifeng's life or death. Ge Cifeng also knew his nature, but he had no choice but to do anything about him. He had no leverage over Mao Tingsong. Even if he was sent to death row with a knife on his neck, Mao Tingsong could still get away if he wanted to. , and no one knows how he did it.
The door was gently pushed open, and Ge Cifeng was so surprised that he opened his mouth: "I obviously locked it..."
"Fang Qianlong of the Beggar Clan pays homage to the Crown Prince of Chu Xiang." A person clasped his hands behind his back and said he was paying homage, but he had no intention of paying homage at all. He slowly walked in, followed by a one-eyed girl who timidly stretched her head and looked around. .
"Fang Qianlong? Are you the Fang Long who followed Yi Xiaodao and was captured by the beggar gang? You have excellent bones? What are you doing here?" Ge Cifeng had some impression of Fang Qianlong.
"Kill, kill a very important person." Fang Qianlong smiled solemnly.
