with words in mind

Chapter 280: The Diverging Minds and Shadows 5
Mingzhou, Chengdong Wharf.

Ever since the people in the Duke's Mansion learned that the prince led the navy to search for King Yi'an and his party, they gradually regained their vitality.

Qi Yun led Zhu Shui, Lu Jiu and Lan Xue to wait and see on the pier every day, and did not return home until sunset.

This is still the case today, because he couldn't hold back his anxiety, he kept pacing back and forth until he saw the sails in the distance, then he stopped and jumped three feet high: "It's a boat! They're back!!!"

"My lord! Elder sister!" Zhu Shui was also overjoyed, seeing the boat, swept away the previous haze!

Lan Xue was also very happy to see the ship, but she just smiled reservedly, opened a pair of bright eyes, and looked forward to it
After a day of sailing, the ship finally arrived at the pier.

Returning to Mingzhou from Snake Fairy Island, Yan Mo felt that everything was like a dream. It was not until she saw the familiar figures of her relatives that her heart finally settled down!

After the battleship stopped, General Ge personally escorted all the nobles to disembark.

All parties saluted each other, and after the navy retreated, the crown prince led Bai Xue and Lan Xue, ready to deal with official duties.

His Highness the Ninth Prince saw Lan Xue, he was overjoyed for no reason, and was about to go up to talk to him, but saw the other party lightly swayed and followed the prince away. He looked at the back of the other party who was going away, secretly feeling sad again
"Ah! I'm not a stupid bird! Goodbye boy—goodbye boy—" Somehow, the parrot was able to pick the right moment, broke away from his lover's arms, circled twice, then flapped its wings vigorously, and flew away!

After a few days of suffering together, Yan Ming and the two of them have developed some affection for the stupid bird. They looked up to see the parrot going away. The bird belongs to Tianji, so they are not as reluctant as His Royal Highness.
"Stupid bird!" Before His Royal Highness could react, he suddenly felt that his hands were empty!He looked back and forth, Lan Xue had disappeared, and the stupid bird had also flown away. The loss in his heart was so overwhelming that he had the urge to cry!
Seeing that the crown prince was gone, Qi Yun dared to get up, and greeted with tears in his eyes: "My lord, Your Highness Ninth Prince, the head of the family, are you all okay?" After waiting anxiously for many days, thousands of words were turned into just one sentence, It's good to be well.Then, when he rolled his eyes, he saw Aoki Hui behind him. He wiped away tears and said in surprise, "Second Master?! Yo! And Miss Yang!"

Yang Mitu was a little worried along the way, but fortunately the waves were not big, so she was able to land safely.Seeing Mr. Qi, she concealed her emotions and smiled slightly in return.

Aoki Hui hid behind Yan Mo because he was afraid of the officers and soldiers, and was supported by the first and second graders
"We're all fine!" Yan Mo stepped forward to comfort her, and she found that after a few days of seeing each other, all the fat on the other party's body had disappeared!He has changed back to Mr. Qi who can "sway and pose"! "Brother Qingmu still needs to cultivate, let's go back to the Duke's Mansion first."

Duke of Wei.

Yu Lingzhou and Hanzi accompanied the Duke and his wife, waiting in front of the gate of the mansion early, and when they saw their relatives return, the two teenagers ran faster than anyone else!

"Sister!" Seeing Young Master Xiaoyu surrounding Yan Mo, the fool turned his head and called out to Qi Ming, "Brother-in-law! It's great that you came back safely~"

Seeing this, Qi Ming returned a knowing smile.

Qi Yun glanced sideways at the somewhat disappointed His Highness Ninth Prince, and secretly poked the fool's back!
"Ah!" Hanzi bounced back!Looking back to see His Highness Ninth Prince, he immediately regained his normal shape, took out a special bookmark and said, "Your Highness Ninth Prince, this is for you."

"Huh?" Qi Lin's mind was still on the pier, and his mind was full of the scene of Lan Xue turning her head sideways, and the moment when the stupid bird flew away. After finally recovering, when he saw the bookmark, he knew it was the other party's intention. , took the bookmark and stuffed it into his arms, and continued to walk forward.
"This special bookmark." Seeing that the other party lacked interest, the fool quietly followed, and said softly, "Only His Royal Highness and Ninth Highness have it, not even the head of the family and the prince!"

"Oh." Qi Ying suddenly came to his senses and thanked him, "Xiao Wang will keep it safe." After speaking, he still walked forward in a daze.
Hanzi scratched his head, although the bookmark is not a valuable thing, but according to the excitement of His Highness the Ninth Prince when he saw him before, he should be happy to receive the special bookmark now
Qi Ming narrowed his eyes and looked at his younger brother's back. He didn't expect that the ninth brother had such a deep relationship with that stupid bird.
"The old minister has seen His Royal Highness King Xing."

"The concubine has met His Royal Highness King Xing."

"Second elders don't need to be formal." After the ninth prince returned the ceremony, he found a corner to hide in. It made the Duke and his wife a little at a loss.
"Fool." Qing Muhui broke away from the guard's support and patted the other's head, "Snake Immortal Island is extremely dangerous, and His Highness Ninth Prince escaped the danger not long ago. Don't pay too much attention to it."

"Second leader?!" Only then did Hanzi realize that Hui Aoki was at the end of the team! "Why are you in Mingzhou?! What's wrong with you? Why are you so weak?"

"It's a long story. Let's go."

"Grandfather, grandmother." Qi Ming and Yan Mo led the way to the Duke and his wife, saluted and said hello.

"Good boy" Mrs. Guo finally recovered a little complexion, and said with tears in her face, "It can be regarded as a safe return!"

Seeing this, Duke Guo was also very emotional. He quietly wiped away his tears and signaled everyone to enter the mansion: "Everyone is tired, go back to the house first."

After the masters left, senior one and senior two took out the silver dragon whip and came to Yang Mitu: "Girl, your whip."

Yang Mitu took the whip, cupped her hands and thanked her, and then followed Qi Yun to the guest house. Along the way, although she was sad, she still kept a certain distance from Young Master Aoki.
In the courtyard, the sweet-scented osmanthus fluttered and shook off the last batch of flower buds. They scattered all over the stone path and followed the servants hurriedly passing by. The government is bustling again
In the room of the Duke and Duchess, Yan Ming and his two comforted the elders well before stepping out of the room.Seeing Yan Mo walking towards the guest house, Qi Ming called Shang Lu Jiu and went back to his room.

"My lord, there is still some leftover medicine for the last wound." Lu Jiu saw that the master took off his clothes and untied the bandage. The wound had not healed yet, so he quickly took out the medicine box and prepared to change the medicine.
"Don't let others know that the wound has not healed, especially the grandfather and grandmother."

"Yes" Lu Jiu replied yes, but at the same time began to burst into tears
"Dignified man, why are you crying?" Qi Ming said with some distaste.

"My lord, you don't know something. In the past few days, the whole mansion has no idea how life is going. You and the concubine have not heard from each other. The subordinates are going crazy! Ahhhhhhhhh!" Lu Nine couldn't hold it back, she burst into tears and snot and cried spasmodically!
Qi Ming sighed softly, and shouted, "Xiao Ren!"

"Master!" Xiao Ren flashed outside the door, "What orders do you have?"

"Keep an eye on the guest house, especially the second master, and report any changes!"

"Yes!"

As the sound of breathing outside the door disappeared, Qi Ming drew back his attention: "The girl doesn't cry as much as you do. Quickly change the medicine for this king. After changing the medicine, I still have to go out."

Lu Jiu sniffed, tried her best to stop crying, and began to treat the injury to the master: "The second elder didn't let me know, and my subordinates can understand, why didn't even the princess know? My subordinates don't worry about the princess at all."

Hearing this, Qi Ming had no choice but to chuckle, why do these guards all have the same idea? !
"This king has his own considerations." He said, revealing an inscrutable smile.
Seeing this, Lu Jiu shuddered all over: Master is indeed the original master!The mind is unfathomable! !Princess, you have to be careful
Qi Ming looked at the other party's changing expression, it was sunny and rainy for a while, but it was still out of sight.He closed his eyes, turned his ears off, and let the other party continue to treat the wound
On the other side, the prince personally supervised and asked the sailors to take Yuan Xiao into the dungeon of the government office and set up layers of defense.After handing over the remaining matters to Jiang Yan, he led Bai Xue and Lan Xue to pack up his own clothes and went straight to the Duke's Mansion.

Originally, he lived in the Jiangnan Palace, but now everyone is in the Duke's Mansion, he can't let go of this opportunity!
Jiang Yan, who is in charge of the overall situation, not only has to deal with the mess left by the Shibo Department, but also deal with major problems and hidden dangers of money circulation buried by the bank.

When Prince Zheng changed into casual clothes and quietly came to the Duke's Mansion, he learned that King Yi'an was resting, so he took the opportunity to find Yan Mo and invite him to parade.

"Master, it's rare to come to Jiangnan, why don't you take me around!"

Yan Mo looked at Brother Jin who was full of interest, and felt that it was really rare, so he agreed.

"You don't need to follow." Seeing that Senior One and Senior Two were about to follow, Qi Zheng turned his head and gave a majestic and cold look
"." Seeing this, senior one and senior two suddenly paused.
"It's okay." Yan Mo broke the deadlock and said, "Give Cang Qi to me, and I will protect His Royal Highness. You guard the mansion."

".Yes."

Seeing Senior One and Senior Two retreating, Qi Zheng lost his momentum, looked back at Yan Mo with a smile in his eyes: "Let's go."

Lan Xue and Bai Xue accompanied her and went with them.

When King Xing heard that the prince was coming, he ran out of the courtyard excitedly and went straight to the guest courtyard!Unfortunately, when he arrived, Lan Xue had already left.
"Where's the prince's brother?"

Qi Yun: "Go back to Your Highness Ninth Highness, His Highness the Crown Prince has gone out."

"Then, what about Lan Xue?"

"I went with them too~" Qi Yun said with a face of course, seeing that the other party turned from bright to dark in an instant, he was a little puzzled, "What's wrong with His Highness Ninth Prince? But what's wrong?"

King Xing waved his hand in despair, turned around and was about to go back to his courtyard. Seeing this, Qi Yun was worried and sent him back all the way
The sun is getting weaker, and the rays of the sun are changing like a girl's dress, colorful
When Qi Ming arrived at the official office, Jiang Yan was still busy, so busy that he was in a state of distress!In fact, Qi Ming took Lu Jiu out quietly after changing his medicine, and the whole government didn't know it at all, thinking that the prince was still resting.

"Your Majesty welcomes you."

"My lord, no courtesy!" Qi Ming took Jiang Yan's saluting hands, "I know that your lord is busy with work, so I came here in casual clothes."

"My lord is here, why?"

Qi Ming: "This king wants to interrogate Yuan Xiao, Lord Lao will inform Brother Huang."

"His Royal Highness has already left, and it seems that he is going to the Duke's Mansion." Jiang Yan replied, "Why, the prince didn't see you?" Seeing that the other party was slightly taken aback, he hurriedly said, "Oh! His Royal Highness has ordered that if the prince wants to See Yuan Xiao, feel free."

"Please sir lead the way."

Deep in the official dungeon.

After going through layers of guards and winding passages, Qi Ming finally arrived at his destination. He asked the jailer to open the cage, and after the people retreated, he ordered Lu Jiu to stay outside the passage and enter the prison alone.

Yuan Xiao was still unkempt, his eyes were hidden behind his messy hair.

"My lord knows that there is someone behind you." Qi Ming sensed the surroundings of the dungeon, and cut straight to the point, "The battle on the northern front was premeditated. This person is thoughtful and strategizing, and it must be not easy to be able to influence the battle on the northern front in the long run. But Ben Wang thought about it, but couldn't find a suitable suspect.

You are just a pawn for him.Now, you only have a few days left to live, do you still want to pretend to be crazy? "

Yuan Xiao raised his eyes upon hearing this!He rolled his eyes and found that the only one who came here was King Yi'an!He got up suddenly, leaned against the iron fence and looked out, but there was no one around!

Qi Ming has been standing at the exit, seeing Yuan Xiao's strange behavior, he is vigilant in case the other party wants to escape from the prison.

Yuan Xiao leaned against the iron fence and looked left and right several times. After confirming the situation, he came to Qi Ming's side, brushed away his messy hair, and said softly, "Be careful, Prince!"

Qi Ming was stunned!To be honest, he has never doubted the emperor's brother. Sooner or later, the world will belong to the crown prince. Whether it is launching a border war or disrupting the affairs of Jiangnan, it will do all harm and no benefit!
"What do you think the prince must bring me with you? I'm a dying person!" Yuan Xiao continued to whisper, "Everything has nothing to do with him!"

Qi Ming changed his mind, relaxed his eyebrows, and said with a slight smile: "Your Majesty Yuan is worthy of being a veteran minister in the court. This trick is very good for turning the guest into the main! But you don't know that the king came here alone, and the emperor did not stop him."

Yuan Xiao grinned lightly, revealing a mouthful of untidy teeth: "This is the brilliance of the crown prince! Doubt or non-doubt are both wrong! As the prince said, my life is not long, and a person who is dying, his words Ye Shan" said, he turned and returned to the straw mat, turning back into a fool.

"Where's Zhu Wangshan?" Qi Ming bypassed the prince and asked, "Is he also yours?"

"Everything is done by me alone!" Yuan Xiao smiled a little strangely, and said in a weak voice, "It has nothing to do with others."

Regarding the true and false answers, Qi Ming can draw two conclusions:
One, Zhu Wangshan is also behind the scenes.But who is behind the scenes, he still needs further investigation.

Second, everyone knows that he is not in harmony with the prince, and it is reasonable to point the finger at the prince, but it is full of loopholes!As the crown prince of a country, there is no reason for the emperor to do this. Unless
Thinking of Brother Huang's illness, and talking about competing for words, Qi Ming's heart began to pound wildly. If Brother Huang was crazy about love, would he have made such a puzzling plan?
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, even if they are left unattended, time will silently water and nourish them like wind and rain.
Outside the government office, as the sun sinks, the night is quietly falling. The streets and alleys of Mingzhou are full of paper umbrella decorations, reflecting the colorful lanterns, and young men and women are wearing love-separated gauze, wandering among them.
When Yan Mo sees delicious and interesting things, he will pick some and bring them back to Xiaoyu, Hanzi, and bamboo water as compensation.Later, she saw a nice tailor-made clothing store, and went in to pick out some brightly colored robes for Mr. Qi, and at the same time, she also chose one for the Duke and Mrs. Does the style of the robe suit the wishes of the two elders?
During this time, Lan Xue, who entered the store together, saw the owner, and was very curious to see the men and women outside, so she took the initiative to buy two love-separating gauzes.After Yan Mo settled the bill and asked the clerk to send the things to the Duke's mansion, Lan Xue respectfully handed the love veil to the master, so as to hide her figure.

Qi Zheng squinted at the thin and light cloak, and with a slant of his mouth, he put it on for Yan Mo!
"!" Yan Mo Leng was overwhelmed by flattery and froze all over! "Brother Jin?!"

"Jiangnan style, really innocent and innocent." Qi Zheng said with a smile while tying the straps of the cloak for the other party, with a soft and soft tone.

"Ah..." Yan Mo took a step back, and said awkwardly, "I'll do it myself."

Qizheng lowered his eyes and smiled softly: "Why does Xiao Yan'er have anything to do with me?"

"Brother Jin's body of a thousand pieces of gold" Yan Mo fastened the straps indiscriminately, and said with a smile, "Hehe. You can't do this kind of thing of serving others."

Seeing that taking the initiative to attack was not very effective, Qizheng thought about it, and gradually revealed a very lonely expression. He put his hand on the skirt of his shirt intentionally or unintentionally, and pressed the glazed ring under it.
When Yan Mo raised his eyes and saw this, his shame instantly surged: "Brother Jin, me."

Qi Zheng is very good at seizing the opportunity, without giving the other party a chance to explain, he shoots an affectionate and sad look
On the street, lovers are all in pairs, filled with the pink love of children.
Qizheng's expression was extremely precise, with a hint of anticipation in his sorrow, he brought out the innocent and pitiful look to the extreme, then he stepped up lightly, staring at Yan Mo all the time.
Seeing this, Bai Xue and Lan Xue wisely avoided their eyes and did not wait and see.

Seeing the other party getting closer, Yan Mo's heart tightened!Faced with feelings that she can no longer respond to, she doesn't know what to do, which is the best. In this situation, she didn't even have the courage to back off because she really didn't want to hurt Brother Jin
Seeing that the opponent did not dodge, Qizheng boldly approached him again, his eyeliner drooping, and he completely enveloped the opponent with his own figure
The two people who were close to Chi Chi looked at each other, one was full of affection, the other frowned helplessly.
At that time at the end of the world, the east wind changes the language, and the duckweed in the world, how can it be eternal?
The dew is clear and clear, the glaze is vowed to be far away, and the love is late, how can it be near?
bang bang!bang bang! !bang bang! ! !
Fire trees and silver flowers are blooming brilliantly in the sky!Lighting up half the sky, the Flower Umbrella Festival came to an end. Couples of young men and women are cuddling each other, looking up, enjoying the last brilliance of the festival~
Different from the wonderful and gorgeous night sky, as the pupils shrink!Qi Zheng's affectionate eyes suddenly opened! ! !

Pounding!Pounding! !Pounding! ! !
