last time

Chapter 31 Trading
Zhuo Ran arrived in front of the Danfengxuan Hall, Yan Chengxuan was a foreign minister and could not enter and leave the harem at will, Zhuo Ran waited outside the hall for a while, and then saw someone coming out to meet her.

Dong Zhu was wearing a light pink pear flower dress, with a double snail bun and two strings of tassels. Zhuo Ran knew at a glance that she was the person next to Yan Qingyao, who was the girl in charge of Danfengxuan.

The last time I saw Yan Qingyao in Zuo Xiangfu, Dongzhu was not there, Zhuo Ran saw her face.

"Zhuo Siye." Dongzhu slightly bowed her knees and saluted.

Zhuo Ran said: "Girl, you are so polite."

Dong Zhu looked at Zhuo Ran's appearance, she had seen many beauties, and this was the first time for Zhuo Ran to be like this, she inexplicably had a crush on this man, and said with a smile: "Si Ye can just call me Dong Zhu."

She led the way and said: "Si Ye is going this way, the empress is waiting in the hall."

Zhuo Ran nodded, holding the jade pendant, she walked all the way from the palace gate, her palms were hot and sweaty.

Yan Qingyao's black hair is loose, and she has not applied any makeup, which is much lighter than last time, and the off-white ice silk dress adds a touch of feeling.She shuttled back and forth among the mahogany carving tables, pinching the scissors to trim the branches and leaves.

Zhuo Ran entered the hall, and Dong Zhu sent a message: "Niang Niang, Lord Si Ye has arrived."

Yan Qingyao murmured "Mmm" inside, and said, "You go down first."

Dongzhu backed off after hearing the words.

Zhuo Ran paid respects after a few cases, and said: "I pay homage to the imperial concubine."

Yan Qingyao looked at the bonsai with satisfaction, then put down the scissors and came out. She cleaned her hands and said, "Get up."

Zhuo Ran straightened up, she didn't have time to change her clothes, Yan Qingyao stared at her for a while, pointed at her clothes, and said: "Actually, you don't need to worry, it's okay to be late."

Zhuo Ran bowed his head and said, "Yes."

Yan Qingyao sat down, raised the purple sand pot with her fingers, poured two cups, and said, "Don't be cautious, sit down."

Zhuo Ran sat opposite, Yan Qingyao pushed the teacup over, looked at Zhuo Ran, and said, "Are you investigating Liao Ze?"

Zhuo Ran pursed her lips, looked down at the layers of white mist floating from the teacup, and said, "Yes."

Yan Qingyao stroked the rim of the cup with her fingertips, and said with a hint of coolness in her words, "I don't want him to live."

Zhuo Ran raised his head.

Yan Qingyao said: "I still know about the affairs of the court. Liao Ze is a fool, and he is used to changing the wind when he sees it. This time the Yan family was punished, and he certainly made trouble."

Zhuo Ran said: "The position of prison supervisor is not easy to come by. He has to cater to him in order to keep his hat on his head."

"The longer he lives, the more difficult it is to explain this matter clearly. He has handed over all the prison confessions, who can tell whether it is true or not?" Yan Qingyao took a sip of tea, as if aftertaste, she said: "This person can't be kept." .”

Zhuo Ran looked at Yan Qingyao, the meaning of these words couldn't be more obvious, Yan Qingyao asked her to make Liao Ze.

This is probably not just what Yan Qingyao meant.

Zhuo Ran thought for a while, raised the corners of her lips slightly, and tapped the teacup.

Li Xunchuan didn't wait for anyone, but Chang Yinyu instead.

There was no one in Lian Yue's school ground at this time, and they all rushed to eat. Occasionally, some forbidden soldiers saluted Li Yanchuan from a distance. Li Yanchuan raised his hand to signal, and called Chang Yinyu to stop.

"Where did you go?" Li Yuchuan said.

Chang Yinyu didn't bring his waist card, didn't wear a steel knife, and looked lazy in the market, he smiled, walked slowly to Li Yuchuan, and said, "I went to drink, but it's a pity, I didn't bring a pot for the governor."

Li Xunchuan turned around and said, "Follow me in."

Chang Yinyu swung his robe and followed Li Yuchuan into the big tent.

Li Xunchuan sat down, wiped the evil carefully, and did not speak for a long time.

Chang Yinyu couldn't bear it anymore, he stood there shaking his legs and whistled boredly.

"Chang Yinyu!" Li Yunchuan raised his voice.

Chang Yinyu heard that Li Yanchuan was attacking him, he looked innocent, sniffed, and said, "The governor called me but didn't speak, what does that mean?"

Li Xunchuan raised his eyes, he frowned slightly, tilted his head, and said in a strange tone that he couldn't explain, "Chang Yike?"

Chang Yinyu didn't change his expression, raised his eyebrows and said, "How does the governor know my calligraphy?"

Li Xunchuan picked up evil and slashed at him, Chang Yinyu reacted quickly, turned around and pulled out the knife placed aside, blocking Li Xunchuan's offensive.

Li Xunchuan remembered the sword skills of the group of people that day, and he approached Chang Yinyu step by step. There was only this space in the big tent, and Li Xunchuan forced Chang Yinyu out of the big tent.

Li Xunchuan swiped his knife across, Chang Yinyu took advantage of the opportunity to step on Evil, turned over, and slashed at Li Xunchuan's waist, Li Xunchuan slashed Evil, stepped back a few steps, and immediately raised his knife to catch up when Chang Yinyu was not standing still.

Chang Yinyu turned around, lifted the knife to suppress the evil, but the evil was heavy, Chang Yinyu took a lot of effort to suppress the evil a little bit, Li Yuchuan used a little skill, the blades rubbed against each other and burst out sparks, Evil is drawn out.

Li Xunchuan took the opportunity to lay the evil on Chang Yinyu's neck, and said, "Your sword skills are good."

Chang Yinyu threw the knife away, sighed, and said: "The governor is evil, if I can carry it, I will never lose to you."

Li Xunchuan tried several tricks, and he found that Chang Yinyu and Zhuo Ran's reactions were very similar, as if they came from the same school, and Li Xunchuan accepted it when he saw a good one, and then put away the evil.

He has always suspected Chang Yinyu, and it was definitely not because of that face that he showed mercy to Zhuo Ran that day.He secretly asked Wu Song to watch him for a few days, only then did he find out that he was still one of Liao Ze's servants.

However, Liao Ze's valet is called Chang Yike.

Li Xunchuan seemed to have figured out why the first group of people wanted to attack him, and Liao Ze wanted his life.

Li Xunchuan and Chang Yinyu were sweating, and the two entered the big tent. Li Xunchuan smiled slightly and said, "You have various identities, and I almost fell into your hands."

Chang Yinyu sighed helplessly, and said, "I'm being threatened by someone? Besides, I don't dare to really do anything to the governor."

"Liao Ze sent you here?" Li Yanchuan asked again.

Chang Yinyu nodded and said: "I have something in his hands, so I can only do things for him. Thanks to the governor's cleverness, I checked it secretly, saving me from wasting my time explaining."

Li Xunchuan wiped his sweat and said, "What excuse do you have? You have been arrogant and domineering all day, who dares to order you like this?"

Chang Yinyu covered his face with a handkerchief, took it away after a while, took a few deep breaths, and said, "The governor is absurd. Didn't I lose money in the gambling house and have no money to pay back? I can't let people make trouble in the imperial army, right?" , anyway, I also want to save face."

Li Xunchuan collected his expression, three points of this man's words were true and seven points were false, he knew he couldn't get anything out of his mouth, so he said: "If you don't have money, you can find something to do. The imperial army is full of honest people. Don't give me everywhere. false."

Chang Yinyu looked at Li Yanchuan expectantly, and wanted to say something, but Li Yanchuan said first: "Don't look, I don't have any money."

Chang Yinyu watched Li Yanchuan walk out of the big tent, and heaved a long sigh as if relaxing.

Li Xunchuan was sweating, and his clothes were sticky and uncomfortable. He threw the evil to Gu Zhao and said, "Go and check the eighteen generations of Chang Yinyu's ancestors."

Gu Zhao just came back from the outside, took the knife and said, "Master, where are you going?"

Li Xunchuan sighed, and stopped. These things were too messy, which gave him a headache. He kicked a stone angrily, and said, "I'm not going anywhere."

Gu Zhao nodded.

Li Yunchuan remembered something, and he said, "Where's Zhuo Ran?"

Gu Zhao looked at Li Yuchuan and said, "She didn't come."

Li Xunchuan smirked, and said, "Sure enough, people have to watch her to be obedient."

Gu Zhao didn't understand what he meant, Li Yanchuan raised his hand and threw his braids behind his head, and said, "Gu Zhao, do you think Zhuo Ran looks like someone who knows martial arts?"

Gu Zhao thought he was joking, so he shook his head and said, "Master can tell from her appearance, she is so weak, how can she fight."

Li Xunchuan said, "Have you ever seen a wolf in sheep's clothing?"

Gu Zhao blinked and said, "The master means..."

Li Xunchuan smiled and said, "Zhuo Ran is so interesting."

"Master," Gu Zhao said in a low voice, "I just went to the place we were looking at, and checked it out, but no one found it."

Li Xunchuan nodded, and said, "Let Xiyu follow me for the next few days, and you and Xiong Zhenghao will take care of that place, and don't reveal whereabouts."

Gu Zhao nodded.

"It's getting late, is the master going back?"

Li Xunchuan said, "Go back."

Li Xunchuan was still holding on to Zhushi's braid, planning to tidy up before leaving. Gu Zhao watched him from behind, and when he noticed someone walking this way, he looked up.

"Master...Master..." Gu Zhao called.

Li Xunchuan turned his head: "Huh?"

Gu Zhao pointed behind him and said, "It's Zhuo..."

Li Xunchuan smiled knowingly, turned around, watched the man slowly walking towards him, lowered the corners of his mouth, and said, "I'm late."

Zhuo Ran walked all the way, also sweating, she was still in the same clothes, looked at Li Yuchuan pitifully, and said, "It's too far away."

Li Xunchuan smiled and said, "Why don't you ride a horse?"

Zhuo Ran was extremely tired, she sighed, and answered irrelevant questions, she said: "What is the governor's order, it's getting dark, this day has passed, but there is no chance for this."

Li Xunchuan approached, looked down at her, and said softly: "The schoolyard is only fun during the day, but at night, it's better to have fun on the couch."

Zhuo Ran smiled weakly and said, "Okay, as long as the governor is not afraid that I will stab you a few times at night, I will do whatever I want."

Li Xunchuan tilted his head and asked her, "Riding a horse or walking back?"

Zhuo Ran knew that Li Yanchuan was messing with her.

Zhuo Ran raised her eyes and said, "Riding a horse."

Li Xunchuan finally got a satisfactory answer, he stretched out his hand to pinch the waist of his heart, and gently led him onto the horse.

Gu Zhao stared blankly from behind.

Li Yunchuan said: "Gu Zhao, you go back first and prepare the bathroom."

Gu Zhao hugged evil in his arms, clamped his horse's back, and ran away in a hurry.

Zhuo Ran rubbed his hand and rubbed the hoof down, she glared, sounded a little angry, and said, "Don't pinch my waist."

Li Xunchuan tightened the reins, Zhushi was obedient, did not rush out, and moved forward slowly.

Zhuo Ran was still holding up her spirits at first, but at this moment, the slight jolt awakened her sleepiness, her eyelids were dry, and she simply closed her eyes.

Li Xunchuan realized that he was asleep, and stretched out his hand to pinch Zhuo Ran's waist. When he was satisfied, he groped for the rein, but was caught by a hard object.

Li Xunchuan reached out and grabbed a jade pendant.

Li Yunchuan thought for a while, held the jade pendant in his hands, and frowned slightly.
