After all, he was worried that someone would notice him. He didn't even understand why he was so cautious today since he had chosen to disclose his identity the day before instead of coming back quietly.
After making sure that the old man Gou Rixin, who had been watching the gates of Beijing for 20 or 30 years, was not following him, he went around and around and finally found a secluded small house in Jing Gongxing in the north.
After everything was arranged, Song Shu, who had been ordered by his bodyguard leader, drove away in a carriage and went to the capital to join his bodyguard team.
When the escort who wanted to find a wife was leaving, Ye Xiayou told Song Shu: "Please go back and tell Mr. He that we can start according to the discussion between me and her in the morning."
Naturally, Song Shu was not only confused when he heard it, he was also confused even in the middle of the night.
He left Qingniyi in the morning, and he didn't go very far before Ye Xiayou ignored the repeated obstructions at midnight and told He Zimen's head guard He Jinsuo what happened in the backyard last night, but he didn't tell who it was, using this as a bargaining chip. I made a deal with the escort agency from Yanzhou.
As for what the two women were talking about at that time, not to mention Song Shu, even though they were insinuating all the way in the middle of the night, Ye Xiayou was always looking around and said that he did not explain clearly.
Song Shu didn't care. He was only escorting for half a day. The escort was also very puzzled by the caution that the second lady of the Ye family kept at all times. He was even more puzzled than when his own escort arranged for him to come alone to escort. .
With a lot of questions, Song Shu said goodbye to these two young ladies who made him quite mysterious and headed south to the capital.
Watching Ye Xiayou quietly, Ye Sangen was thinking about how to ask Ye Xiayou what he was thinking. Starting from Wudang Mountain, some of the things his sister did and said were always confusing, even though it was obviously every day. He was talking about going home, but now he actually arrived home but didn't go back. What was the deal? Ye San Geng wouldn't think that the reason was because Ye Haer was afraid that Ye Linling would see her like this.
Gou Rixin, the man watching the door, probably wouldn't believe it, and Ye San even thought so.
This time, before Ye San Geng could speak, Ye Xiayou once again spoke without a clue: "Tomorrow morning, you go back to Panshan to report that you are safe."
Ye San made a soft "hmm" and asked doubtfully: "What about you? Aren't you coming together?"
Ye Xiayou shook his head, "I don't want to go back."
"Are you sick?" Ye Sangen could no longer hold back the many questions in his stomach, "Ye Xiayou, don't think I can't see it. Ever since Wudang Mountain, you have been hiding things from me, right? Yue Qingfeng Go follow Jiugong Yan, he is an official, he shouldn't go if something happens under his jurisdiction? Why does he say that he wants us to owe him a favor? I know Yue Qingfeng's character better than you, he will never do it He said this for no reason. What on earth did you tell him on the mountain?
"In Phoenix City, don't tell me about the great righteousness of the family and the good fortune of the country. Mingdaofeng has been away from the world for more than a hundred years. If it weren't for the two children who happened to be here this time, how could it be possible for the first brother to encounter these things? The first brother is the one who obeys the grave. Rules, he couldn't agree so readily just because you were playing with those six tea bowls. Did you talk to Brother Yi while I was in coma?
"When we return to Beijing this time, although what happened three years ago may be downplayed, in the final analysis we are also fighting against the enemy. We agreed to go home quietly at the beginning, but you suddenly changed your mind and released the news. What is the reason? ?
"We are all in the same business. One more thing is worse than one less thing. Why do you have to get involved in the He Zimen Escort Agency? What did you discuss with the man named He Jinsuo? What exactly do you want to do?
"Why didn't you even go back home when you entered the city? Why didn't you recognize the girl from the Su family in Xinghua Alley? Why did she occupy our house? What are you hiding from me?"
The barrage of questions was also the anger accumulated over the past month, which made Ye Sangen a little excited at the end.
Ye Xia You sat across from him, quietly listening to his brother's whining doubts, from far to near until he asked about the really puzzling things at the moment. Ye Xia You was silent for a moment, then sighed and laughed at himself.
"I promised my mother that no one can make you angry, not even me."
Lights were lit in the city to cover up the moonlight.
The moon hung on the treetops, and a knock on the door suddenly sounded in the quiet courtyard.
One long and three short, very gently.
Just pause for three or two breaths, and then tap one long and three short, over and over again, quite regularly.
In the middle of the night, Ye Xia You raised his head and turned around, looking at Ye Xia You. Apparently, he had the same thoughts as Ye Xia You. The two of them had just entered the city, and their whereabouts were not exposed along the way. How could someone come to visit?
Naturally, Ye Xiayou would not suspect that Gou Rixin, who was guarding the gate of the capital, would tell the whereabouts of the two of them. Regardless of whether he was frightened at the time, if this old man who did not follow the two of them told the truth, no matter who knew the whereabouts of the two of them. When people return to Beijing, visitors will not knock on the door so politely, for fear that they will break the door.
The gentle and regular tapping continued, and it seemed that he had no intention of stopping. Ye Haoyou softly called to the money spotted leopard that he had quietly found from outside the city. In the dark corner on one side of the small courtyard, on the other side of Wudang Mountain The psychic leopard that had been following him shook his body and walked out.
This leopard is indeed a human being. Along the way, he is afraid that he will cause unnecessary trouble because of attracting attention to himself, so he always hides his whereabouts not far or near. When he was hungry, he looked for food by himself; when he was thirsty, he looked for water by himself. He kept quiet and calm, not disturbing, and he was really obedient. Even He Zimen Escort, who had been with him for several days, didn't know that he had such a big pet following him. It was really awesome.
In the past few days, he had followed him all the way to the capital. It was even better when he entered the city. There was no need to worry at all. At midnight, he saw him hiding in a troupe that came to Beijing to perform, and he entered without any danger. To the city.
At this time, the leopard lazily stretched its long body in the small courtyard. Although it was psychic and did not sense any danger, it still dutifully obeyed the arrangements of this "new owner".
The knock on the door rang four or five more times, and when it stopped again, someone spoke.
"Fuying and Ge Wangyou came to visit late at night. If I'm bothering you, can I stay here until tomorrow? I hope you'll forgive me."
There was no more knocking on the door.
Ye San was startled, and turned to look at Ye Xiayou, who also had doubts on his face.
Ye Sangen sneered: "Are you still getting in touch with Waka without telling me?"
"Go away." Ye Xiayou cursed angrily.
The one who opened the door was Ye Sange, and the one who went out first was Ye Xiayou.
Outside the door, He Qingshan, dressed as an old woman, was sitting on a small tea mat with a box and basket on his back. He Ge Wangyou, wearing white clothes and a black cloak, stood leaning on a pole more than ten feet away from the door.
Ye Xiayou naturally couldn't see these people, but when she stepped out of the door, He Qingshan and Xiaocha quickly got up and fell into her ears, and they knew there were others.
Ye Xie leaned forward and said politely: "I didn't know that Mr. Wage was here, so I hope you won't be surprised if I was delayed for a moment or two."
Hege Wangyou, who came from Fuying, looked up and turned his head, following the voice, with a slight indescribable embarrassment on his face in the darkness, and said: "No way, no way. I asked He Qingshan to bring me here, but due to some accidents on the way It took some time and came late."
He Qingshan looked at Wage Wangyou in surprise. She really couldn't understand that Wage Wangyou's coming this time was purely voluntary. No matter whether it was early or late, how could he still apologize to others?
Wage Wangyou said it was reasonable, and Ye Xiaying took it for granted, "It's okay."
Silence fell, and the atmosphere began to become a little subtle.
He Qingshan and Xiao Cha looked at each other in confusion. Due to his status as a storyteller, He Qingshan looked at the man and woman in front of him and speculated on the deeper meaning hidden in the conversation between the two.
Hege Wangyou looked over to He Qingshan and Xiaocha, broke the silence and asked: "Is there a place to rest?"
Although it was directed towards He Qingshan, it seemed that the question was coming from a distant place. After all, the four of them were not standing very far away.
It was Xiaocha who pushed her, and He Qingshan, who was wondering what he was thinking, came back to his senses and said hurriedly: "Just found it, Xiaocha and I will leave first."
The answer was wrong, Xiaocha was helpless and said: "The big man asked us if we have a place to live."
He Qingshan laughed awkwardly to cover up his embarrassment and said: "You should be able to find it if you follow Xiao Cha. We can just spend the night together."
Ye Xiayou didn't talk to Hege Wangyou, and he didn't seem to say too much to He Qingshan. He just stepped aside slightly and said "please" in a tone that really couldn't be refused.
He Qingshan, who was taking Xiaocha, was still hesitating. For her, her relationship with Ye Sangen was not just an encounter with her master when she was storytelling in the capital. She had been taken care of by the Ye family for many reasons. A feeling that others don’t understand.
For the second young lady of the Ye family who was famous back then, He Qingshan, who had had many contacts with her in the past, was more in awe than admiration for the rumors about her and the talk after dinner in the streets.
As smart as Ye Haoyun, he could guess a lot about their thoughts just by listening to the two people beside him without moving, and said: "If you don't want to leave, just stay. Why, if we haven't seen each other for a few years, I'm afraid I will hurt you." ?”
He Qingshan hurriedly said "I don't dare."
"You have no intention of letting anyone in." Ye Sangen, who had never left the house, interrupted, allowing Ye Ye to come out.
Hege Wangyou's body visibly trembled, and he listened to his old friend's voice, his tone obviously a little excited, "Third...Third Young Master?"
Ye Sangen curled his lips, "We haven't seen each other for only seven or eight years, why are you so sentimental?" Then he said to Ye Xiayou, "You two blind men are blocking the door, how can people come in?"
Over there, Wage Wangyou, who had obviously never calmed down from the beginning until now, said in shock again: "Is Xuan Yu really blind?"
Naturally, he was crying blindly for his own reasons. Ye San was a little embarrassed. He changed the topic and invited the two girls beside him, "Xiaocha is so big now, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, it's been years." If he’s gone, he’s willing to talk to Qingshan, come here, come in, come in, come in.”
The preface does not match the postscript.
He Qingshan, who was also quite uncomfortable with the subtle atmosphere in front of him, quickly agreed, "Come in, come in. I'm almost falling apart from the rush this day, so I have to take a rest quickly."
After speaking, he took Xiaocha, who had just felt that the relationship between the man and woman in front of him was unusual, into the courtyard.
The discerning man also closed the door in the middle of the night.
There was only one person left at the door and one person outside the courtyard. They were more than ten feet apart. The two blind men could not see each other, but neither of them spoke.
Hege Wangyou pondered again and again, and then said: "Are you really blind from crying?"
There is nothing to hide. Dazhou and Fuying have close contacts. Ye Xiayou doesn't believe that the news of Dazhou cannot reach Fuying.
Ye Xia'er said in a helpless tone: "It's better if you don't get angry to death if you have such a worry-free brother in the middle of the night."
Ye Sangeng, who must have been eavesdropping behind the door, sneered, causing Ye Xiayou to say "Go away".
There was a tugging sound from behind, until it disappeared, and the two people outside the courtyard were speechless.
Hege Wangyou seemed to be escaping, and Ye Xiayou naturally guessed something during the silence, so she spoke first and said leisurely: "I'm angry at midnight."
There seemed to be some grievance in his tone, but more of it was resentment, "It's your fuying's cowardice that I suffer from."
Hege Wangyou tried several times but still didn't turn around, and said in deep thought: "I'm going to come here and I will definitely seek an explanation for the Third Young Master."
There was another moment of silence, and Ye Xieyou sighed softly, with some hesitation in his voice, and an unprecedented grievance in his tone, "What about me? What can I say?"
Hege Wangyou lowered his head and finally did not speak again.
"Squeak-"
The courtyard door opened, and Ye Xiayou stepped away.
The song forgets sorrow and sighs, which is very heartbreaking in this silent night.
