Xu Jia arrived at the royal capital three days ago. After some rest, he returned with Ding Yi and the others.
Chunmiao wiped her nose with the back of her hand, smiled with red eyes, "Young lady can't get rid of this slave."
"Yeah." Seeing that she was back to normal, Lu Anran continued walking forward.
Chunmiao saw that her young lady didn't really want to hear what she said, so she changed the topic to a lighter topic, "Village Chief Yin's house was suddenly destroyed by Donglei, and he and Yin Tianming were also missing. Is this right? It’s called retribution.”
Xu Jia brought the news back to the capital. On the night after he sent the letter, there was a loud noise in the sky. Everyone ran out to see that half of Village Chief Yin's house had collapsed, and the father and son were missing.
Lu Anran looked up at the sky. The night sky was cold and cold. A full moon illuminated the joys and sorrows of the world. He counted the stars in detail, just like the lights in every house.
Just as she was sighing, her vision went dark, and something hit her arms.
As soon as his eyelids fell, he caught a bright red flower in his hand. Lu Anran looked up and saw Yunqi sitting on the railing, holding a jade cup in his hand and drinking up his head, smiling lazily at her.
In the clear breeze and bright moon, he is the only one who is unparalleled in his elegance.
One of them is upstairs, one is on the street, one is looking up, the other is looking down.
"Have a drink?" the person above said.
Lu Anran thought for a moment and was about to answer when a five or six year old child bumped into him.
People come and go in the market, and people walk shoulder to shoulder. Occasionally collisions are normal. She helped the child with one hand, but saw that the child did not leave immediately. Instead, she shyly handed Lu Anran a small lamp.
Lu Anran was stunned: "Give it to me?"
The child was not outstanding in appearance, but he had the childlike innocence unique to children of this age, which was always cute. He nodded seriously, pursed his lips and smiled shyly, and then ran away.
Lu Anran was stunned in place, holding a small lantern and feeling dumbfounded.
Yun Qi supported the railing with one hand and leaned half of his body outside. He chuckled and said, "It's rare for a child to be willing to get close to cats and dogs."
As soon as he finished speaking, he glanced at something and threw down the empty jade cup in his hand.
The lantern in Lu Anran's hand fell to the ground with a clatter, and the small candlestick inside overturned, burning the entire lantern, and immediately emitted a pungent burnt smell.
"Ah!" Chunmiao couldn't react in time and exclaimed softly.
When people around saw that someone had overturned a lantern, they immediately crowded elsewhere, and a small piece of land suddenly became vacant.
Lu Anran stared at the ground without moving, Chun Miao looked over in confusion, her face turned pale instantly.
I saw several bugs in the center of the lantern struggling in a twisted manner after being burned by the fire. Some were burned after rolling over, and some took the opportunity to flee in all directions.
"Centipede? Poisonous scorpion?" Yunqi came to them at some point and raised his eyebrows: "Have you seen that child?"
Lu Anran shook his head: "Maybe he's a prankster."
They were just asking people to clean up the mess. Before Yun Qi could say a word, he heard a burst of noise coming from the restaurant next door, over the crowd.
Because he was so close, Lu Anran could see the person at the center of the argument at a glance.
The young man on the left is dressed in rich clothes and looks taller. However, his eyes are narrowed and a trace of anger appears on his face. At this moment, he is waving his folding fan lightly with a mocking smile on his lips.
Lu Anran had seen this person on the day of the assessment and had some impressions.
The one on the right is very unfamiliar, his appearance is too delicate and a little feminine. The lights of the street make his face very white. He bites his lower lip and his eyes are slightly red. Even if he is angry, he is too weak.
There was a man next to him, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, quite handsome. He stood there as straight as a bamboo pole, with a look that also released strong anger.
There is another reason why people can recognize them as the center of the topic at a glance. The three of them are all wearing the student uniforms of Jixia Palace.
Soon, the crowd of onlookers who heard the news surrounded the three people layer by layer, completely submerging their figures in it.
Lu Anran withdrew his gaze, not wanting to pay too much attention.
But Yun Qi said happily: "Oh, it's them."
Lu Anran: "Do you know the prince?"
"Yin Pleiades, the second son of the Yin family on the left, is from the Wu family in Lanzhou County. I have never seen the one next to him." Yunqi turned his wrist, and the jade bone fan drew a beautiful arc. He waved the fan lightly, and inadvertently There is a flow of wind and wantonness.
Although Lu Anran privately disliked Yunqi's bohemian habits, after comparing the same actions, he discovered what true elegance and elegance were.
Yun Qi saw something strange in her eyebrows, "What?"
There were more people surrounding them, and they came like a tide, affecting their place. Yunqi and Lu Anran walked towards the Qixing Lake, which was now quite empty.
While walking, Lu Anran said: "At the beginning of winter, the Yin family sent people to the Lu family."
On the day of winter worship, it has become a habit every year to exchange etiquette among the counties in Mengzhou. In addition to the Yin family, there are other families, but Lu Anran mentioned the Yin family alone, and he quickly realized the deep meaning in this.
"The Yin family intends to marry the Lu family?"
Lu Anran pursed her lips slightly: "Grandma is interested."
Yunqi was surprised and smiled: "It seems that things haven't happened yet."
Seeing his weird smile, Lu Anran frowned.
Yun Qi didn't show off, he leaned over and said something.
The two were walking in front, Chunmiao followed at a distance, and suddenly Yunqi approached Lu Anran to the side. She quickly looked away and slowed down her steps.
Lu Anran didn't think about romance as much as Chun Miao did. At this moment, a cold air climbed up from her back, gradually chilling her heart and making her whole body feel chilly.
"The Yin eldest son is a manly man."
The words Yun Qi blew into Lu Anran's ear just now made her feel cold from head to toe.
Yun Qi seemed not to notice Lu Anran's abnormality. He put the jade bone fan under his nose and continued: "Although this kind of thing will not be publicized everywhere, everyone who should know and has the ability to know is tacitly aware of it. To the Yin family As far as I'm concerned, it's just for fun with Yin Kui, it won't prevent him from finding a well-matched match in the future."
Lu Anran closed her eyes. No wonder her father sternly refused. Maybe he didn't say it because he felt it was unnecessary, but what about grandma?
Would she, the good grandmother who was planning to work hard to ensure that the Lu family continued to prosper, not know the inside story?
The flowers were blooming, the moon was full, the stars and lanterns were shining, and a grand scene of the world unfolded before her eyes. It was obviously lively and prosperous, but her heart was extremely cold and bitter.
Even if I had never expected anything from the Lu family, I never thought it would be so unbearable!
After a long time, after her surging heartbeat gradually subsided, she took a breath and regained her previous calmness. She said as if it was nothing to do with her: "Yin Kui has this habit. Even if he wants to get married, he has to marry a concubine who is not favored by other families." Women, or businesswomen with money but no power, compared to me, I am the most suitable candidate."
If she finds out the truth and makes a big fuss after the marriage, people will say that it would be great for a faceless and ugly girl to marry into the Yin family, otherwise who would marry her?
Yun Qi tilted his head, his dark eyes smiling with a hint of sincerity, "You are already better than most women in the world if you can enter the Jixia Palace."
Lu Anran lowered his eyes: "My original intention of entering Jixia Palace is to find my own way of medicine."
"Then why don't you join the Medical Sect?"
Not to mention failing the assessment, Yun Qi knew that if Lu Anran was willing, she could complete the assessment extremely beautifully.
Lu Anran raised her eyes and looked at him: "I've found it now. I won't treat anyone alive."
Yun Qi raised his eyebrows, and Lu Anran continued: "It's troublesome to treat a living person."
In the case of Honggu and the experience in Yinjiacun, she found that Yun Qi was right. Rather than treating living people, it would be better to face the silent dead, which brought her inexplicable excitement.
Peeling away the cocoons, listening to the last words of the deceased, and bringing the truth to the world seems to be more meaningful than simply treating illnesses.
Seeing the woman with an indifferent expression and no shyness when talking about her marriage, who remained calm even after knowing the truth about how the Lu family's mistress had framed him, Yun Qi was a little curious as to what made her lose her composure.
Then he smiled with an unclear meaning and said: "Wu Zuo is a lowly position in this dynasty."
What he said when he was in Yinjia Village was thrown back by Yun Qi. Lu Anran just nodded, "Yeah."
Yun Qi: "So?"
Lu Anran said: "Why did Jixia Palace open such a sect?"
"I don't know about this." After Yun Qi finished speaking, he added: "But it didn't happen before. It was only established by the former Emperor Dingkang."
Thinking of the nagging Lei Weng of the Medical Discipline Sect and his senior brother who was wandering around without a trace, Lu An then felt a sense of regret that he had gone astray.
Yun Qi chuckled: "Your master should be pretty good."
Well, before Lu Anran had time to ask, there was a crowd of people in front of him, and among the various chaotic noises came a particularly sharp scolding from a woman.
Being blocked, they could only stand where they were, but this time they were a little far away and couldn't hear clearly what the dispute was about.
Looking back, the Divine Beast Bridge was crowded with people, and a new group of people setting off lanterns gathered on the Qixing River; the noise continued in front, and a large number of people from the royal capital who loved the fun came to Ulala.
Attacked from both sides, he was in a dilemma.
Lu Anran felt his arm being poked and turned his eyes. Yun Qi blinked at him and said, "Go drink wine with me."
Lu Anran: "..."
—
Hualou, peach blossom drunk, named Huajiu.
Lu Anran looked at Yun Qi lazily leaning on the railing, with one hand on top, and the other hand filling the cups in front of the two of them. The fragrance of flowers invaded the smell of wine, lingering on the dreamy drunkenness.
"I'll treat you to a drink of flower wine, where did you think you were?" Yun Qi saw her sitting upright, but wanted to provoke her a few words, and said with a low smile: "You are young and your mind is not pure."
Lu Anran said helplessly: "Your Majesty, you don't need to speak like that..."
"Huh?" Yun Qi's tone was slightly raised, with a sexy vibrato.
Lu Anran lowered his eyes, holding the cup in his right hand, holding it up with his left hand, raising it to the level of his lips, and said: "Yesterday, Your Majesty met an urgent need, so I borrowed this glass of wine to express my gratitude."
Yun Qi chuckled: "Thank me with my wine. Miss Lu is really sincere."
After repeated visits several times, although Lu Anran had long been accustomed to Yun Qi's careless tone, this time he felt that Yun Qi's words made sense and said, "I treated the prince's men before, so that will offset it."
Yun Qi shook his head: "It's not me that you treat my subordinates, so why should you be counted on me?"
Lu Anran finally understood one sentence: when a scholar encounters a soldier, he should be the first to be without trouble.
Yun Qi raised a finger: "In this way, you owe me a favor and I will remember it and repay it to me anytime when needed."
Lu Anran opened her mouth, but was stopped by a knock on the door. When she saw Guan Yue coming in, her face looked like she had something to report.
