Naturally, there was nothing he could do. Ye Xieyou, who had concerns in his heart, did not dare to show up. He was afraid that if he went to Jingzhao Mansion, he would be invited into the government office in the gentlest way by Mr. Gao Zhaogao to wait for his share. Whether the arrest order is valid or not.
If it works, it will be sent directly to the palace; if it fails, it will be sent directly to the mountain.
Ye Xiayou doesn't want to take the initiative to become a stepping stone for others on their way to promotion.
I don't know where my younger brother, who couldn't sit still for a moment, ran away. I couldn't sit still all afternoon and was just worried, so I could only pass the time by pacing back and forth in the yard.
It was past Shenzheng, and the sky had darkened for most of it. Jackdaws were dotted, making their voices heard returning to their nests. The breeze set off the sunset, and the stream of light extinguished the distant mountains.
When he looked up at the sky, he was naturally not looking at the setting sun melting gold and dusk clouds blending together. Ye Xiayou, who was restless in his heart, muttered something from time to time, presumably blaming his unreliable younger brother for not knowing where he was at the critical moment.
If this late-afternoon muttering was really effective, Ye San, who was missing, might have sneezed countless times earlier.
At least there is nothing wrong with the late night shift that Jiang Jiang is pushing in at this time, and he is enjoying himself.
As expected, Ye Xiayou scolded her for a while. The ignorant Ye Sangen looked puzzled and jokingly said: "Step on your tail?"
Naturally, Ye Xieyou scolded her again, "You still know how to come back?"
Ye San, who was rubbing his stomach, looked even more aggrieved, "Can't I come back to eat when I'm hungry?"
But Ye Xie, who was even more depressed, stepped forward and kicked her, and said clearly angrily: "I shouldn't let you stay at home. What else can you do besides wandering around every day?"
Ye Sangeng, who didn't dare to hide even if she wanted to, was speechless. She didn't know where her sister's anger came from.
A slightly calmer Ye Xie said: "Liu Bai came over at noon because he has something he needs our help with."
He just said a neutral "Oh", apparently not realizing that his sister was so angry at midnight, which caused Ye Xiayou to glare angrily, "The thing you talked about at noon about Liangwei, because it involves There are too many women and they have been handed over to Jingzhao Mansion. Liu Bai's younger brother was also summoned to the Yamen at noon because he had a secret friendship with Liangwei. Liu Bai meant that we could help him and go to Jingzhao Mansion to inquire. I didn't do it either. It’s convenient to go out, it’s only been half a day, I’m afraid the whole family won’t be able to find out any news, so please go there.”
It was not a discussion at all but an order. Ye Sangen curled his lips and said: "I have long heard that that boy is not good enough. Just go in. What are you worried about? That boy Su Liuyin has a thief but no courage. He also If you can't do what Liangwei did to deceive a good girl, the most you can do is call him over and try to trick him about Liangwei..."
"Go if you are told to go. Where do you come from so many words?" Datong listened to the chatter in the night room, and Ye Haoyou, who had been in a state of confusion after midnight, glared again, "If you don't want to go, I will go alone."
As he spoke, he walked out, and in the middle of the night he hurriedly apologized, "Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go now."
With an empty stomach, I left the yard and headed south in the middle of the night. Naturally, I didn't dare to neglect my sister's explanation, but it was important to fill my stomach. I bought a piece of mutton oil sesame cake on the corner of the street. It was coated with sesame seeds and had a fragrant aroma. .
Obviously not in a hurry, he ate and walked, crossing the streets and alleys, and entered the city through Danfeng Gate in the northeast of the capital.
There is no curfew required for the New Year celebrations these days, and the city is still bustling with activity.
There are four large squares to the east of this place, most of which are mansions purchased by the princes of the court. There are often imperial guards patrolling here, so it is a little deserted. Plus the four small squares on the west side, together they are not as good as those on the east side. The size of a square was used by the royal family to keep birds of prey, eagles, eagles, and harriers for the royal nobles to use during their spring outings and autumn hunting. The smell was unpleasant and made it even more deserted.
He chose to enter through this door in the middle of the night, naturally he had his own ideas, because Yue Qingfeng lived here.
It is hard to imagine that Yue Qingfeng, who is almost like a woman after hanging up those two mustaches, would like these ferocious animals. He himself said that in this world, even the women who were gentle and affectionate under his crotch a moment ago are there. Maybe give him a knife after putting on his clothes, only these beasts won't.
This made me think that my uncle was more or less mentally disturbed after he was kicked out of the house in the middle of the night.
I held my nose and walked through the streets filled with bird droppings. Although it was already night, the darkness here was even more eerie, especially when I looked up and couldn't see the sky. A piece of big cloth patched together covered the whole place. The city is covered tightly, which makes it really uncomfortable for normal people.
They walked around and stopped in front of a small courtyard. Without knocking, they pushed the door open and walked in. The person who was feeding a white-headed harrier in the courtyard was none other than Yue Qingfeng, who was wearing a soap coat.
Turning around to look at the person, Yue Qingfeng showed no surprise at midnight, "I knew you would come."
After being slightly surprised, he soon realized that the boy from the Su family was always trying to take advantage of others by playing tricks on others. In recent years, he always regarded himself as a relative of the Ye family because of the shocking things his sister had done, even though he would not cause any trouble at all. Although it is a smear of mosquito blood on the wall, in the eyes of outsiders, it is indeed a powerful backstage.
Yue Qingfeng naturally knew about the strange incident between herself and Su Liubai. The incident in Liangwei was making a big fuss today. Because Su Liuyin was involved in Liangwei, it was reasonable for him to intervene.
Before she could speak in the middle of the night, Yue Qingfeng threw a handful of corns on the ground, clapped her hands and said toward the room: "If you lose, you have to accept the punishment. Twenty somersaults, turn over."
Surprised again, at midnight, I saw someone counting and somersaulting from the house to the yard.
When the twenty count was over, a face full of silly smiles was illuminated by the torches used for lighting in the yard.
Song Li.
He was laughing, "Even if you come tomorrow, I won't be so unlucky."
In the middle of the night, I laughed dumbly.
"Why are you here? During the Chinese New Year, my sister asked me to go to the evil pit to look for you back on the mountain for dinner, but I couldn't find you."
Song Li, who was still a little embarrassed about the late night question, scratched her head and said, "My sister asked me to celebrate the New Year with her."
Not only Yue Qingfeng, who has been very close to him in recent years, does not know about the sister who is always smiling, but Ye Sangeng, who has been hanging out with him since childhood, does not know who the sister Song Li often mentions is. , I only know that Song Li, who has been lonely since she was a child, accidentally got lost with her only sister during a lively New Year's Festival when she was young.
This young man in the palace, who with his life-threatening ruthlessness became the mastermind of Dazhou's secret organization when he was a teenager, has been blaming himself for many years.
Only a few years ago, I suddenly heard that I had found my long-lost sister.
This was not many years, but nearly twenty years. Ye Sangeng did not believe that there would be such a coincidence, especially when Song Li was demoted from the job of knife catcher.
When I was feeling disheartened, my only relative in the world suddenly appeared. Coincidence? Or is it fate?
But for this sister, just like hiding her true identity - whether she is a villain who is unknown to others, or a knife hunter who cannot be mentioned to outsiders - Song Li is very protective of her "reunion after a long separation" sister. .
So in the middle of the night, he said what he had said more than once over the years, "We can do it together."
Song Li, who had never been a little anxious with Ye San, still looked serious as before, "Are you coveting my sister's beauty?"
There was no need to speak in the middle of the night. Yue Qingfeng curled her lips in disdain and said, "You are pretty, but with your appearance, how can your sister see you so well?"
Song Li was a little shy, "What if it looks good."
Even in the middle of the night, he curled his lips.
Yue Qingfeng spared no effort in mocking her, and laughed loudly: "Isn't that more beautiful than Jiang Lou Ersan or Kang Lingzi in Pingkangli?"
Maybe the person who said this didn't mean it, and just thought it was a joke between friends. But if you really want to take it seriously, it is indeed a bit too much.
At least it sounds excessive in the middle of the night.
The third night of the night did not shy away from this. He pushed the guy who was leading the fast-moving headhunters around the capital and said displeasedly: "Stop saying a few words."
But Song Li habitually squatted down, put his arms on his knees, swayed, and said nonchalantly: "I can't say for sure."
This made Yue Qingfeng, who was even more unconcerned, burst into laughter.
For Song Li, who had such a gentle temper, he could only echo this moderate joke with a wry smile in the middle of the night.
More than three years ago, because of the envoy He Ge Wangyou who sent the envoy from Ying to Zhou Dynasty, for moral reasons and for unknown reasons, Ye Sangen entered the game on his own initiative as the host and took the initiative to protect this close friend. The prince of Fuying East Palace went back and forth.
Faced with the assassin who assassinated Hege Wangyou in the dark for unknown reasons, Ye Sangen asked his father Ye Hongtu to invite chivalrous men from the Jianghu to escort the mission out of Beijing. Song Li ignored the court rules and accepted the invitation because of Ye Sangen's favor. , left the palace without permission, was held responsible afterwards, was convicted of leaving his post without permission, was demoted to a civilian, and was not allowed to be employed in this life.
That time, when the guilty Ye San Geng was chatting with Song Li, he had spent his whole life thinking that this was the kind of honest and honest swordsman who could make a name for himself. He giggled and said, "It's a blessing in disguise, but it's a blessing in disguise." It's the relief that comes in the middle of the night.
At that time, he was like this, squatting under the winding mountain, biting the grass stems, holding his arms on his knees, dangling.
After gathering his thoughts, Ye Sangen asked: "Why are you looking for Brother Feng?"
Song Li picked up corns on the ground and threw them to the rarely seen white-headed harrier.
Although this bird of prey is as hard to catch and tame as the Dongqing outside the sea, it is extremely difficult to find. In order to pay tribute to the imperial court, some hunters searched the mountains for three generations, but they could never find one in their lifetime.
Precisely because it is so rare, a bald harrier is worth a thousand taels of gold. For those hunters in the mountains, this is a wealth they have never had in several lifetimes.
By chance, Yue Qingfeng caught such an animal and kept it here, just so that it could be tamed properly and win the favor of the royal family. When the time comes, it would be a good thing to make a modest request and return to Yue's family.
Song Li said: "After the New Year, I will start working to make money. Come to Brother Feng to see if there are any key criminals in the case, and earn a reward from the officials."
This knife-catcher who was demoted to civilian status had been making a living from this job for several years, doing the shady assassin job of working for the government. Ye Sangeng naturally knew about it and tried to persuade him to change his career more than once, but Song Li refused every time.
From childhood to college, I have always been good at killing people. If I change my career, what can I do?
No longer wasting time with Song Li, Ye Sangen looked at Yue Qingfeng and asked: "Tell me, Su Liubai has been begging to go to my sister, and I have to get back this face for my sister no matter what."
Yue Qingfeng, who naturally knew the meaning of the late night watch, looked embarrassed and muttered: "Things are not easy to handle."
In the middle of the night, I said "oh" and waited for the next step.
Yue Qingfeng said: "Judging from the situation in the yamen court now, Mo Ying, the envoy from Yongzhou who just came to Beijing not long ago, knows what Liangwei has done in these years. All of this was secretly told to Mo Ying by Su Liuyin. Now the government wants to keep Su Liuyin as a witness to accuse Liangwei, and it is impossible to let him out for a while."
Ye Sangen couldn't help but frown, thinking that Su Liuyin was just going in to go through the motions. How could this become a witness?
Song Li, who was squatting aside, chuckled and said, "It is said that friends who have had drinks together and fought together are the most reliable. It is unethical for Su Liuyin to betray his friends."
