Jiaochu

Chapter 522 Bracelet
After a while, Yan Miao came out of the house, and went on her own without disturbing her meal.

After he left, she raised her hand, and a butterfly flew out of her sleeve and flew out of the yard.

When Shiyi and Yaoyao came to clean up the dishes, she was not in the yard. There was a pool in the garden with several koi carps in it. She lay on the railing beside the pool and watched the fish.

She stayed here until the sun went down, and a butterfly flew in front of her. She looked around and followed the butterfly.

The two of them stood in the pavilion on the rock and watched her go away. Yan Miao said, "Teacher really wants the princess to leave?" He said, "She will come back."

The door was closed, but no one was guarding it. She quietly slipped behind the door, opened a crack in the door, took a look outside, and then quietly went out.

It was already getting dark, the street was lit with lights, but no one was walking around. There was a soldier standing every ten steps on both sides, heavily guarded. She hid at the entrance of the alley and quietly poked her eyes out to look out. Another group of people came towards her. The light of the torch flashed towards her, and someone shouted, "Who is it?!" Immediately, seven or eight people gathered around her. , she quietly stepped back, and suddenly a hand grabbed her belt and walked away.

When those people gathered around the entrance of the alley and held up torches to shine a light inside, they found nothing.

……

She looked at the masked face and never looked away for a moment. When she got to a safe place, she was still looking at that face. Yan Fei lowered his head and met her eyes. On the way, he felt her staring at him, and it was true. The two pairs of eyes stared at each other for a long time. When a breeze blew, he calmed down his thoughts, put her gently on the ground, and led her into the house.

It was still the same small courtyard as before, Ye Xingye and Meng Jingxiu left the city first.

After entering the house, she asked him how he found her. Yanfei said it was a coincidence. In fact, he had been searching in the city all night. Before dawn, he sneaked into the palace and searched again, but he couldn't find anyone. Suddenly, he suddenly Thinking of Yan Miao, the other party had seen her before and talked about the rouge mark on her forehead. He stayed near the Yan Mansion with a bit of a luck mentality. When it was getting dark, he saw her slipping out quietly, not knowing what she was doing. Wherever he was going, he followed her secretly first, and then when he saw her being discovered, he showed up and took her away.

He didn't say a word about the twists and turns, only that it was a coincidence.

She asked him if he could take off the mask. Yanfei raised his hand to take off the mask. She stared at that face for a while and said, "I seem to recognize you." His heart skipped a beat, because he was used to restraining his emotions. There wasn't much movement on her face, but her eyes couldn't deceive anyone. She pulled up her sleeves and said, "I remember you gave me a bracelet." Seeing that there was nothing on her wrist, she lowered her head and remained silent.

He took out something from his arms and wrapped it in red silk. When he opened it, there was a colorful jade bracelet. He reached out and took her hand, put the bracelet on her again, and said, "Don't do it again in the future." Gave it back to me.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly reached out and hugged him, buried her head in his chest and said sorry to him again, her voice slightly choked with sobs, she hugged him tighter and called him "Brother Yan" softly. Hearing these three words, he felt as if he was struck by lightning again, and his heart was ecstatic. She remembered him! Suddenly his expression darkened. If she remembered everything, would she still stay with him or return to the North? Thinking of Murong Ze, his pupils turned cold and he wanted to know what happened that made her unable to remember anything. , if Murong Ze really harmed her, he would definitely seek justice for her. Even if he hid her for the rest of his life, he would never let her return to the north again.

"Have you remembered it all?" He asked tentatively, feeling a little uneasy in his heart. Seeing that she was silent, he felt even more uneasy. Just as he was about to distract him, she shook her head and buried it in his head. With his head on his chest, he couldn't help but feel relieved, selfishly thinking that he would rather she didn't remember, and was no longer a princess but just an ordinary person.

……

The city was under martial law for three days, and the bad news of Emperor Qi's death came from the palace.

People are in panic and restless day and night.

Yanfei and Ye Lingxi took advantage of the chaos to leave the city.

The edict to establish the crown prince was announced to the world, and the fourth prince chose a day to ascend the throne.

After leaving the city, the two Long Shadow Guards who were waiting outside the city met up with Yan Fei. The four of them rushed to the dock. There happened to be a large cargo ship that was about to leave. Long Shadow Guards negotiated with the ship's boss and offered to pay twice as much as the ship's price. The ship's boss said He can't make the decision, he has to ask the young master's family. After asking in the cabin, the boss of the ship came out and invited the four people to board the ship without mentioning the fare. His attitude was much more respectful than before, and he didn't look at Ye Lingxi with curiosity when he saw her wearing a curtain hat. After boarding the ship, the boss of the ship asked his youngest son to take the four people to the cabin to rest. He also told the younger son not to pry, and he stayed outside to direct everyone to anchor and set sail.

After entering the room, Yan Fei asked her if she felt uncomfortable. He still remembered that she was not used to riding on a boat when she went to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, but it was safer to travel by water. She shook her head, feeling no discomfort at all, which made him feel relieved.

Two dragon shadow guards guarded the door.

……

After dinner, the ship boss came over and told the two Long Shadow Guards guarding the door that the young master wanted to see his young master. One of the Long Shadow Guards knocked on the door and went in to report. After a while, Yan Fei came out and followed the ship boss away.

There were two guards standing at the door of another room. The ship boss brought Yan Fei over and left. One of the guards reported inside, then opened the door and let Yan Fei in.

Yanfei was not surprised when he saw the young master inside. He happened to see the seal on the last box that was brought on board. It belonged to the Xiao family. The young master was naturally Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun nodded and asked him to sit down opposite him. He was not surprised to see Yan Fei, his expression was as calm and peaceful as ever. A year ago, Mrs. Xiao was not in good health. Xiao Yun resigned and returned home to take over the family business. Some of the twenty-four masters of the water and land hall were dissatisfied with his young boss because of their seniority and secretly used The stumbling block was calmly dealt with by him, and those who were about to take action also stopped their evil intentions and became honest. Now, no one from the hall master to the waiters disobeys him.

"What kind of business does the young master do here?" Yan Fei asked casually.

Xiao Yun said: "It's not a big deal to come here to buy some tea leaves and sell them back." He picked up the tea cup and scratched it twice, "I haven't heard about Mr. Yan for a long time, but I bumped into him today." Yan Fei said, "Yes. It is said that I committed suicide in fear of crime and fled to Xiyan. There is a rumor that I committed suicide in fear of crime. I happened to be caught by the young master's family today. If someone else had done it, they would have taken me to the north to take credit." The last two sentences seemed like a joke, and they were true. Fake.

Xiao Yun said: "Those who are clean will be clean themselves."

Yan Fei smiled lightly and changed the subject to talk about the martial law in the capital. Xiao Yun heard about the death of Emperor Qi and also knew some details about the fourth prince.

The biological mother of the fourth prince was not favored, and he was also disliked by Emperor Qi. He was also ostracized among the princes. As a result, he developed a taciturn character, which made him even more unpopular with Emperor Qi. Later, Emperor Qi was infected with scabies, and several other princes did not dare to go to the hospital for fear of being infected. Only the fourth prince dared to take care of him without taking off his clothes, and even tried the medicine himself. His filial piety moved Emperor Qi. After Emperor Qi recovered from his illness, he gradually paid more attention to him and let him gradually take charge of the affairs of the court. He also gradually accumulated his own power in the court. Later, a case of embezzling food and salary implicated the eldest prince as the mastermind behind the scenes. Emperor Qi was furious. The eldest prince was placed under house arrest. Later, a favored concubine in the palace committed suicide by hanging from a beam. It was discovered that she was related to the second prince. The Emperor of Qi was furious and demoted her to a commoner. She was sent to the bitter cold land of Liangzhou and was never allowed to return to the capital. .

The third prince was usually cautious, but he had not been found out.

Until the night when Emperor Qi and Yan Lianjue were poisoned, the third prince led troops to force the palace, but was killed by the fourth prince.

The eldest prince was imprisoned, the second prince was demoted to a commoner, the third prince rebelled and was killed, and the throne fell to the fourth prince.

After Xiao Yun finished speaking, he took a sip of tea and said, "I have nothing to do these days. I made a divination, and a military disaster is coming."

Yanfei said: "When the new emperor ascends the throne, there will be many military disasters."

Xiao Yun nodded slightly.

After sitting quietly for a while, with nothing to say, Yanfei left. Neither of them mentioned Ye Lingxi, neither asked nor said anything.
