with words in mind

chapter 63
After sleeping separately last night, this morning, Qi Ming took Yan Mo to a deep forest somewhere in the suburbs of Beijing, surrounded by lush green bamboos, dotted with sunlight, a small stream flowing not far away, and the fragrance of birds and flowers in the forest.
Yan Mo looked around and asked, "Where is this?"

Qi Ming carried a bamboo basket and led Yan Mo to the tombstone: "This is Ziyan's cemetery."

Yan Mo was shocked!When she saw the name on the tombstone, it was like a lifetime away, and she slowly stroked the words "Mo Ziyan", her heart pounding and fighting for teachings, and the memories were hard to smoke, and she was afraid to talk about what happened at the time.Intended to leave the injury to be re-declared, identify the inscription on the monument
Qi Ming walked to Yan Mo's side and said, "Back then, I found a girl to be your substitute and brought it back to the capital to make everyone think that you are dead. I hope this will keep you safe. Later, I found this piece of feng shui. place, and she will be buried here."

Yan Mo, who was immersed in the past, reddened her eyes and said distressedly, "It's you who replaced me." She hugged the tombstone and sobbed.
"Should I put incense sticks for you." Yan Mo got up and saw Qi Ming lighting incense and candles, so they both worshipped Ziyan's tomb together.

After placing the offerings, Yan Mo thought of the crown prince and asked Qi Ming, "Did Brother Jin know that I was still alive at the time?"

"Brother Huang doesn't know that the less people know about this, the better." Qi Ming replied with lowered eyes.

Yan Mo: "How has he been in the past few years?"

Qi Ming looked at Yan Mo, who was staring at the tombstone, and then lowered his eyes and said, "After you disappeared, I rushed back to the capital, hoping to announce your death as soon as possible, so that the mastermind behind the scenes could stop everything, so I could only send people around secretly. Searching for you, I'm not sure about the news of you that I haven't had for years In the past few years, he will secretly leave the palace when he is bored, and I often accompany him to relax."

Yan Mo: "Brother Jin's nature is too pure, and you are not as good at penetrating people's hearts as you, so it will be even more difficult to break free from the bondage of human feelings."

"." Qi Ming suddenly looked at Yan Mo and clenched his fists, "You're blaming me, blaming me for not telling the emperor that you might still be alive"

Yan Mo: "No, maybe you're right, it's better to be like this now than to let him down again"

After walking out of the forest, the two got into the car in silence. Lu Jiu didn't dare to disturb him, and just drove the carriage on the road.

The carriage traveled all the way, and it was very quiet inside the car, until after entering the city, various speeches were heard on the street.

"Have you heard? King Yi'an really married the owner of the cottage! The marriage decree has been read out!"

"It's more than that! I heard the decree, then the village owner ran to the palace, and I also heard that she had stayed in the palace before!"

"Aiya! Why is a girl's family so impatient?!! I'm not ashamed!"

The more Yan Mo listened, the more distorted his brows became.
"Hey~ You don't know, Jianghu people are outspoken, and they are straight-forward when they talk and do things! Hehe! I'm afraid that this village owner has long been interested in King Yi'an! After all, the king is also a handsome man, a dragon and a phoenix among people! dont you agree!!"

"Hey! I don't know what the prince is thinking? He agreed to the marriage so easily! Do you think this village owner is a great beauty?"

The very speechless Yan Mo helped his forehead helplessly, gritted his teeth and said, "Fox. You let out all these rumors, right?" After she finished speaking, she gave Qi Ming a look that was so certain.

Due to the dull atmosphere between the two before, Qi Ming just scratched his cheek and did not answer directly.

"Last time I secretly came to your mansion, and the next day I left in a guard costume. Yesterday I also secretly came from the palace, and we went out early in the morning. How did the public see me staying at your mansion? What?" Yan Mo asked when he saw that he didn't deny it.

Seeing that Yan Mo was finally willing to talk to him with a changeable expression, Qi Ming chuckled and said: "You are already the fiancee of this king, those rumors, just take it seriously. You are a person in the rivers and lakes. So much attention~"

Yan Mo: "Don't think that I don't know your little Jiujiu and spread rumors, isn't it just to force me to promise to marry you?"

Qi Ming said sternly: "Not only that, I can only protect your cottage if the folk rumors prevail. You are not familiar with the red tape in officialdom. I did this to change the cottage household registration as soon as possible."

Yan Mo had heard Aoki Hui say that the officialdom was cumbersome and complicated, so he stopped arguing after glaring at Qi Ming.

Qi Ming looked sideways at Yan Mo's face, and his slightly bulging cheeks made his eyebrows laugh.

The carriage went all the way to the intersection of the cottage, and after walking through a hillside road, Qi Ming followed Yan Mo back to the village.

The kitchen aunt was collecting food in the gate yard. As soon as she saw that it was Yan Mo, she went to greet him: "Zhaizhu, you are back! All night! Where have you been?!!" Only then did she realize that Yan Mo was following behind her. A young man said with doubts on his face, "Zhaizhu, you disappeared all night and brought a man back?! You still look so good!!" As she spoke, she leaned closer and whispered, "Now you are the princess. Empress, you can't mess around outside!"

"When am I messing around outside?" Yan Mo squeezed out through gritted teeth.
"Then, then, if the prince is not happy with you," the kitchen aunt said to herself, "Oh! You called me. What should you call us to do?!!" She stomped her feet and complained!

Qi Ming couldn't help laughing when he heard this. He walked up to the kitchen aunt and nodded slightly to show his obedience: "This junior is King Yi'an."

"Oh, mother!" The kitchen aunt finally realized, "It turns out to be His Royal Highness Prince Yi'an! Ouch! What a junior!! It's too small!!! Come on! Please come in!!"

Yan Mo looked at the positive attitude of Aunt Chef, and had to sigh at Yu Qiming's shrewdness, always smiling gently, and making a look that was very pleasing to the elders!

Seeing Yan Mo entered the hall, Aoki Hui was about to ask her how her marriage negotiations were going, when she saw Qi Ming, who was being pulled by the kitchen aunt behind her.He looked at Yan Mo, his eyes were full of questions, and he saw that the other party shook his head helplessly.
Aunt Kitchen: "Hey, His Royal Highness, let me tell you, our village owner is a knife-mouthed tofu-hearted person. Sometimes you don't care what she says, just watch what she does!"

Qi Ming listened with a cooperative smile and nodded occasionally.

The kitchen aunt continued: "She, the most unbearable thing is to be hungry! Once you get hungry, you can't do anything! Once you're full, you can do things! Faster than anyone!!"

As soon as Feng Zhi saw Qi Ming, he saluted, "Your Highness!" Even Aoki Hui also saluted.

Seeing this, the kitchen aunt hurriedly added, and she simply shouted: "The woman has seen His Highness!"

"It's not more polite." Qi Ming said, walking up to Yan Mo and said, "How did you think about the answer to yesterday's matter?"

Yan Mo looked at the crowd in the hall and hesitated.
Qi Ming followed Yan Mo's eyes to look at everyone and said, "This king also wants to help them." Then he took out the register from his wide sleeve and handed it to Yan Mo.

Yan Mo hurriedly took it. Who would have guessed that as soon as he moved his finger and staggered, there would be another book under the register!
Qi Ming: "This is the dowry list."

Yan Mo looked at the two pamphlets and said, "The dowry list?"

Qi Ming smiled and said, "This king has taken his heart and lungs out. Of course, I don't just give you the courtyard in the palace. There are also several properties, properties and deeds on it, including the title deed here." In Mo's eyes, "I will give it all to Concubine Ai~"

When Yan Mo heard the concubine Ai, he suddenly felt a heat in his chest, spread over his neck and cheeks, and unconsciously raised his eyebrows.

Jian Yanmo was always unwilling to answer directly, Feng Zhi was about to say something, but was preempted by Aunt Kitchen!
The kitchen aunt took down the dowry list and the book of good people, and said slightly shyly: "Aiya! The prince is powerful and talented! What are you hesitating about!! Resolutely win!!"

Qi Ming listened, still not forgetting to stare at Yan Mo, smiling a little shyly.

The kitchen aunt looked at the two brochures and said happily: "I can finally buy some good ones to make up for everyone!!"

Yan Mo helped her forehead helplessly, thinking that this fox would really seize the opportunity to take out the register and the dowry list in front of so many people, she should agree no matter how hesitant she was.

Aoki Hui looked at such Yan Mo and lowered his eyes.
After tasting Aunt Chef's craftsmanship at lunch, Qi Ming admired it very much, so he stayed until the evening.

After eating a table of delicious dishes from the kitchen aunt, everyone came to the small river behind the cottage to digest food.Xiaowen told Yan Mo that the new clothes had been made, so he took Yan Mo to try on the clothes first, and let the others go to the river first.

Hanzi took out the river lantern and played with his younger brothers and sisters. Xiaodouzi was completely integrated, and just like Xiaolai and Xiaodai, they called out behind Hanzi as brother and brother~
After all, Qing Muhui is the second master, and Yan Mo is not there, he will entertain the visitors responsibly, and said to Qi Ming: "The evening wind is the most soothing at this time, and the village owner will always bring them together to put on river lanterns and play games. , set off fireworks"

It was the first time Qi Ming looked at Aoki Hui so closely, and found that under the brilliance of the river lantern, his exotic appearance was even more peach-faced and handsome, with its own charm.

Hanzi didn't write well, so he pulled Aoki Hui and asked him to write everyone's wishes on the river lantern.Feng Zhi and Aunt Kitchen also came over to provoke the river lantern, and only Qi Ming stood there, looking at everyone with a smile.

The Milky Way is fluttering with stars, the shadows of the swirling trees are rustling, the sweet breeze is blowing, and there are people Yiyi.
Qi Ming looked back, and the figure in the moonlight paced out of the dream like a cloud. Through the daisy made of leaves, Yu Li was near Yan Mo, wearing a light pink dress of gauze quality, white and pink inside and out, semi-transparent. Exquisite, the faint jade-colored girdle around the waist makes the whole person a little more agile and light!

Aoki Hui raised his head from the pushed river lantern, looking at Yan Mo like this, he knew that this gauze material would suit her.

Seeing that Yan Mo was different from his usual outfit, everyone laughed and praised him for his good looks!

As soon as Xiaodouzi saw Yan Mo, he ran up and dragged her to the riverside, asking her to choose a river lantern: "Xiaodouzi wrote her wish~ Sister also wants to write it!"

Xiaowen followed behind Yan Mo. Her clothes were not as simple as Yan Mo's, but had more embellishments, making her even more cute and playful. She happily picked the river lantern and asked Hui Aoki to write her wish.

Seeing that everyone had put on the river lantern, Yan Mo chose a river lantern with red plums falling on it. After lighting it, he squatted by the river and stared at it for a while, then pushed it directly into the water and let it float away.
Seeing that Yan Mo's river lantern was empty, Qi Ming approached and asked, "What wish did you make, why didn't you write it down?"

Yan Mo glanced at him, looked into the distance and said, "I didn't make a wish, because it's impossible."

Qi Ming stared at the river lantern for a long time, then quickly picked up the brush and flew over the river, picked up the lantern, and wrote a few scribbles: "Then I promise that the king can help you realize your wish!"

When the river lantern fell back to the water again, the lamp surface swayed, revealing two lines of words, wishing to win the heart of one person, and the white head will not be separated.

Yan Mo had no time to stop it, and when I saw those words, I thought it was vulgar!Before Qi Ming landed, he turned around and left.

The kitchen aunt smiled and said, "Oh, she's shy~"

"Sister is shy~Sister is shy~" Xiaodouzi and her younger siblings shouted blindly along with the kitchen aunt.

Block: "The village owner also knows to be shy!"

The crowd laughed even more!Qi Ming landed steadily, staring at the man's back, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Looking at Qi Ming's brows and eyes with a smile, Aoki Hui's eyes couldn't help but darken.

Qi Ming finally left in the carriage. In the cottage hall, Aoki Hui and Yan Mo sat opposite.

Aoki Hui: "I heard that this King Yi'an is extraordinary and acts in a devious way, no one can really know what he is thinking!"

Yan Mo picked up a piece of orange and stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Oh? The person who can be described as extraordinary is really extraordinary! He is a smiling fox!"

Aoki Hui worried: "That must be difficult to deal with!"

Yan Mo: "That's not it! You have also seen his behavior."

Aoki Hui said more eagerly: "Then you are still married? Village owner, Yan Mo! Have you really made up your mind?"

Yan Mo smiled helplessly: "Brother Qingmu, don't worry, this is a transaction between me and him, not a real marriage."

"Deal?" Aoki Hui stood up and pressed Yan Mo's shoulders, "Men in the world are like crows! They are all black! He not only wants to contribute money, but also takes care of us, but he is willing to let you use a fake Marriage to trade?"

Yan indifferently said: "He said that the Mo family sacrificed for their two brothers, and he should help me."

Aoki Hui was even more worried: "I said it all, no one can really know the mind of King Yi'an! Maybe this is just his words, you can't marry it!!"

Yan Mo held Qingmu Hui's arm and said, "In these years, you have helped me to find out the clues of the year, but how much has I gained? Now I have a prominent prince for me to drive, but it is only nominally marrying into the palace. , I have nothing to lose, don't worry, Brother Aoki, I can handle it."

As soon as Qi Ming returned to the palace, Xiao Ren appeared in the study.

Seeing that Qi Ming took out two old files, Xiao Ren asked, "Master, do these two still need to be investigated? This seal was once a member of the army, but he has very little information before joining the army, only know He is from Meilai Town, Hezhou. And this second-headed family has Persian blood, looks extremely beautiful, is a business traveler, often goes out, and his life experience is even more difficult to find."

Qi Ming: "It doesn't matter if you are sealed, this king is more concerned about this second-in-command. Yan'er has no resistance to beautiful men since he was a child, and he is a half-blood. He has long companions around Yan'er. It's true."

"Master, is this the point?" Xiao Ren twitched the corners of his mouth.

Qi Ming smiled and said: "Nothing, anyway, there will be more opportunities to get to know this person in the future. After Yan'er gets married, the one who gets along with her day and night is this king~"

"Does the master really want to take her into the mansion?" Xiao Ren discouraged, "I have been secretly helping her for so many years, but I know her safety. The situation is changeable, and the subordinates are afraid... afraid that the safety of the master will be affected!"

Qi Ming smiled and said sternly: "This king is no longer the child of ten years ago. Remember, she is this king's concubine."

Xiao Ren: "But in her heart, what she likes is His Royal Highness!"

"." Qi Ming pulled out a smile, not knowing whether it was bitter or sweet, "This matter is not urgent, you can take your time."

In the Qinzheng Hall, the emperor finally raised his head from the push of a document, and Liu Gonggong immediately served tea.

The emperor took a few sips and put down the teacup, looked at him and said, "I saw you yesterday, how is it?"

"Your Majesty is referring to Princess Yi'an?" After receiving the emperor's approval, Eunuch Liu said leisurely, "The princess is quite handsome, with a pair of water-like eyes, she walks with style, and has extraordinary martial arts, not like an ordinary knight and reckless. It's a bit heroic, and it's really not the same as ordinary girls. Yesterday, I was probably frightened by the imperial decree, and I couldn't believe it when I received the decree!"

Emperor: "Well, listening to you, it doesn't seem as bad as I thought. I can make Ming'er agree to this marriage so lightly. It seems that I should meet her."
