with words in mind

chapter 59
"Hey, where did Brother Aoki go?" Yan Mo, who returned to the cottage, did not meet Aoki Hui on the way.

Xiaodouzi still refused to let go of Yan Mo's robe, which made it even harder for her to act.

"Zhaizhu?" As soon as the fool entered the door, he saw a small dumpling sticking to Yan Mo's body, "Eh? Where did this little guy come from?"

Yan Mo: "Oh, fool, have you seen Brother Aoki?"

Dumb: "Huh? I just came back from the printing house. Didn't the second master act with the village owner?"

Yan Mo: "I got separated from him in the teahouse. Ya! Pig's trotters!"

"Pig's trotter?!! Where is it?!!" Hanzi was drooling, his eyes searching for Yan Mo's body.

"I forgot! I originally wanted to bring it to you." Yan Mo felt empty when he talked about the food, "Huanyu Restaurant has an accident today, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it in the future."

Hanzi couldn't hide his loneliness when he heard this: "That chef's cooking is the best. My pig's trotters."

Yan Mo glanced at Xiaodouzi who was pouting her little finger and said, "Xiaodouzi, let's eat first!" Then she pulled up the idiot who was teary-eyed because she couldn't eat the pig's trotters.

When I came to the kitchen, the kitchen aunt had already prepared food, and when she saw a few people touching it, she said, "There is still one sweet and sour fish! You guys are tired at the market today, are you starving already? You fools! Xiaowen and the others call, and they can eat it in a while!"

"My pig's trotter," the fool muttered, pacing to call for someone.

Yan Mo: "Aunt Chef, have you met Brother Aoki?"

Aunt Kitchen: "I've been in the kitchen, the second master isn't with you?"

Yan Mo: "I was eating in a restaurant in Japan today. Later, a refugee broke in. Brother Aoki escaped first, and I didn't see him again!" After speaking, she gently pulled Xiaodouzi out, "Aunt Chef, Get him something to eat first, and I'll go out to find it!" Yan Mo picked up a steamed bun and put it in his mouth and was about to go out, but Xiaodouzi grabbed the corner of his clothes!

"Sister." Xiaodouzi flashed a pair of tearful eyes.

"Xiaodouzi" Yan Mo squatted down and covered Xiaodouzi's thin shoulders, "Sister goes out to look for brother, come back when you find it, you stay here first, the cakes and meals made by the kitchen aunt are very delicious, sister is very good Come back soon, okay?"

"Don't. Xiaodouzi, don't. Don't want my sister to leave." Xiaodouzi wiped away her tears aggrieved
Yan Mo looked distressed, but worried about Aoki. Just as he was in a dilemma, he heard the blockade outside shouting: "Zhaizhu!!"

And behind Feng Zhi was Aoki Hui who was covered in mud, covering up his exotic face.

"Brother Aoki! You're back!" Yan Mo was helpless and could only hug Xiaodouzi to meet him, seeing Aoki Hui in confusion, "Brother Aoki, what happened to you? Where did you go after the teahouse?"

"I escaped from the window, I wanted to open the door of the teahouse and meet you." Speaking of which, Aoki Teru looked at the sturdy seal, "I didn't have that much energy. Then I saw a guard coming, I am the owner of the village, as you know, I am afraid of soldiers."

"Then why aren't you waiting for me outside the restaurant?" Yan Mo said, looking at Aoki Hui, "Are you injured?"

Aoki Hui: "When I saw that group of officers, when I panicked and ran around, I accidentally stepped on the skin of the melon and slipped and passed out. Then I woke up." Speaking of this, he dodged Yan Mo. "I don't know where people are, and all the money on them is stolen."

"The money is gone?!!!" Yan Mo couldn't believe it, "Wait! You said you slipped? Injured?" She put down Xiaodouzi and looked at Aoki Hui's head, "This is not good, if It hurts his head, that's incredible! Block it! Take him to see the doctor!"

Aoki Hui stopped him and said, "I'm fine, I just fainted at the time, and I crawled back. There's nothing uncomfortable, don't look at the doctor! But this is the most urgent thing!" He displayed the notice in his hand, " A notice was posted in the city, and due to the recent influx of refugees, several crimes have been committed, and the imperial court has begun to rectify the suburbs of Beijing, saying that all cottages will be banned!"

Yan Mo took a look at the notice, and urged, "No! Why don't I worry about it, so you are banned to take him to see the doctor first."

"Okay!" Feng Zhi said as he carried the tall and thin Aoki Hui and went out.

"Hey! Lao Feng! I can go by myself, let me down!" Aoki Hui shouted, "This is shameful!"

Blocking is just silent work, regardless of whether others are decent or not.

"Hey! You're not eating anymore! It's my fault for doing so much!" The kitchen aunt who didn't know the situation shouted to the crowd with a spoon!

They had already gone far, Yan Mo sat down with Xiaodouzi in his arms, just as Hanzi, Xiaowen, and their younger siblings came over.

Hanzi looked at a table of delicious food and temporarily forgot the pig's trotters: "Oh, I'm starving to death!"

Yan Mo: "Xiaowen, from today onwards, Xiaodouzi is also one of our members, and I will leave it to you to take care of it!"

As soon as Xiaowen heard this, he sat next to Xiaodouzi and said, "That's great, I have another younger brother. Is your name Xiaodouzi?"

Yan Mo: "Little Douzi, eat well, my sister wants to inquire about your father, okay?"

Xiaodouzi was a little recognizable, holding Yan indifferently and refusing to let go.Xiaowen took a look, revealing eight big white teeth, and took out a small cloth doll from his body, small enough to fit into Xiaodouzi's palm.

Xiaodouzi looked at the little doll, and then at Xiaowen, saw her bright smile, remembered the rough doll that her mother made for herself, and smiled so brightly
Seeing that Xiaodouzi finally let go and played with the puppet, Yan Mo sighed at Xiaowen's care: "Xiaodouzi, wait for me to come back!"

Yi'an Palace.

Xiao Ren, wearing a gauze mask, appeared in the shadows: "Your Highness, this is not a period of war, and the defense outside the capital is already strict, but there is an extra small cottage, Your Majesty will soon find out why you forced her to come. This Zhaizhai?"

Qi Ming sat in the small pavilion, sipping a cup of tea in a leisurely posture, and said, "I didn't intend to implement the plan so quickly. Since the time has come, let's take advantage of the situation. When there will be guests, let the door Watch out for the guards."

"Yes!" Xiao Ren responded, and turned to doubt, "Let the guards pay attention? Is it to be strictly guarded or loosely guarded?"

Qi Ming thought to herself, which of those people were her opponents, and couldn't help but lower her eyes and smile. This smile warmed the flowers in the courtyard.

Qi Ming: "Just guard the door, nothing else."

"Yes!" Xiao Ren was so hidden in the darkness.

The night is getting deeper, the stars are hanging on the sky, and the breeze in the late spring is very pleasant.

"Come here, prepare meals and snacks." Qi Ming ordered after seeing that the sky was almost over.

Several servants brought food and wine one after another, filling the small table in the pavilion, and then retreated after everything was completed.

In the courtyard, the bamboo greens were dangling, and the fragrant wine was floating on the table. Qi Ming couldn't hide his laughter, and finally he waited for a slight landing sound.

Qi Ming: "Just sit down and talk when you come, just in time to accompany this king to have dinner."

Yan Mo: "The guards outside are so lax, are they waiting for me?"

Qi Ming smiled and looked at the figure under the tree: "The guards of the palace have always been like this."

"Really? It seems that you are very confident in your own martial arts!" Yan Mo walked out from under the bamboo tree, looked up to see the appearance of Xiaoting, and was stunned.
This is a wooden umbrella pavilion. Although the shape is different from her memory, it still reminds her of the extremely beautiful red plum and the simple and honest figure of that day. It seems that it only takes a moment for her to return to the past ten years. , the figure is blurred, only the bright moon remains.
Seeing her stiff figure, Qi Ming couldn't help but restrain his smile. Umbrella Pavilion was his fond memory, but to Yan Mo, it was a complicated existence.
"This king has prepared Longjing Cake, don't you want to try it?" Qi Ming got up and went out, looking at her.

Yan Mo finally recovered and followed Qi Ming slowly into the pavilion. She looked around. The top of the pavilion was equipped with ingenuity. It must be a hidden mystery. Four carved pillars supported the pavilion, and the curtains were lifted lightly. , reflecting the moonlight
Qi Ming put Yan Mo's favorite food in front of her, roast chicken, seasonal vegetables, mung bean cake, Longjing cake, lotus pie.
After Yan Mo was seated, he looked at the delicate food and didn't immediately take a sip. Instead, he looked at Qi Ming and was about to speak.

"You want to enter the palace?" Qi Ming said first.

Yan Mo: "I don't know how the government will judge the case of Dafu?"

Qi Ming poured Yan Mo a glass of wine and said, "So you want to take this opportunity to go to the palace to see the emperor."

Yan Mo drank the wine and said, "Yes, are you willing to help me?"

Qi Ming poured himself a drink: "It depends on what you exchange?"

Yan Mo thought about it, all the gains from the market today were wasted, and there was really nothing valuable on her body. After hesitating for a long time, she finally took out a small dagger from her waist. You know it's not vulgar.

Qi Ming recognized the foil hairpin at a glance, and smiled a little stiffly: "Are you going to use what this king gave you to repay this king's favor?"

Yan Mo: "You gave it to me, and you have accompanied me day and night for ten years, so that's mine!"

Qi Ming's eyes lightened slightly when he heard the day and night.

"I don't have anything valuable on me, only this one can be taken out." Yan Mo pushed it forward, "If you can, take it and help me this time."

Qi Ming twitched the corner of one side of his mouth and pushed back the foil hairpin: "Since I have been with you for ten years, I must have feelings. Why don't we change the conditions."

Yan Mo: "What conditions?"

Qi Ming: "It's getting late today, so just stay in the mansion as a trading condition."

Yan Mo: "Is that so?"

The corners of Qi Ming's mouth deepened: "That's it? You are a girl and you stay in someone else's house for one night. Is that for you?" He looked at Yan Mo defiantly.

Yan indifferently said: "people in the rivers and lakes, where do you come from so much attention. You can't break your promise, as long as I stay tonight, you will take me to see the prince."

"Don't worry, I'll set off early tomorrow, so you don't have to run back and forth." Qi Ming raised his chin, his eyes beckoning Yan Mo to put away the foil hairpin.

Yan Mo inserted it back into his waist, and seeing that the matter was resolved, he finally pulled a chicken leg and took two bites. He ate it up, in stark contrast to Qi Ming's elegant eating.

When Qiming saw Yanmo eating and eating without restraint, the corners of his mouth would bend unconsciously, and his eyes were shining like stars.

Yan Mo, who was finally full, hiccupped. She was about to wipe her mouth with her hands when she handed a silk handkerchief to her. When she looked up, she saw Qi Ming staring at her.

Qi Ming smiled and said, "Looking at your meal, it's hard not to have an appetite."

At this time, Yan Mo noticed that there was indeed a mole on Qiming's mouth, and he couldn't help thinking of the masked boy who bought the candied haws that day.

"When you're full, come with this king." Qi Ming led Yan Mo to the Yanming Courtyard and ordered the four servants to stay and serve.

"You don't need a slave, I'm not used to it." Yan Mo glanced at the room, everything was ready, "It's enough to have a bed and a quilt, you don't need to serve me."

"Just wait outside the courtyard gate." Qi Ming waved his hands to signal the servants to step back, and turned to Yan Mo, "If there is anything else that needs the help of this king, you can say it together."

This fox is very cunning. It is safer to discuss the matter of the cottage with Brother Jin. Yan Mo thought about it and said, "No, thank the lord for your hospitality today."

Qi Ming lowered his eyes and said clearly: "Then you have a good rest."

The next day, Yan Mo was used to getting up early, and when the servants saw her getting up, they brought a change of clothes.

Yan Mo unfolded it and saw that it was men's clothing, which looked a lot like the guard's uniform in the mansion.

Slave: "Miss Yan, the lord has instructed that if the girl wakes up, put on this dress."

The words are indifferent, ready to change clothes, and the servants will come up to help when they see it.

Yan Mo: "Don't! I can do it myself, you all don't move."

Slave Wei Wei: "But the lord. I instructed the slaves to take good care of the girl. This is men's clothing, I'm afraid the girl won't wear it." Then he started.

"No! No!!" Yan Mo hurriedly hides, "I've also worn men's clothing a few times, I can wear it myself! Come on down!"

"Girl, let the servants wait and change her clothes. If the prince is to blame, the servants can't afford it." The servants chased Yan Mo and insisted on helping her change clothes.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha!! Ahhahaha!!" Yan Mo couldn't control it, she couldn't stand their ticklish provocation at all, and she felt itchy before she touched her waist!
"What are you so happy about?" Qi Ming's voice came from outside the door. When he entered the door, he saw a few people piled up together. Yan Mo laughed and turned back and forth, flexibly hiding from those tender and slender hands.

"Hahahaha!! Hurry up!! Let them stop hahaha. I. I can't take it anymore!!" Yan Mo asked for help with tears in his eyes.

Qi Ming was stunned, he didn't know that Yan Mo was ticklish? ! !

He smiled and stared at it for a while before he said, "Go down, leave your clothes."
