Missing and repressing for a long time made her tend to collapse just by hearing her voice.

    Ye Youqing could feel the trembling of the body in his arms, Ci Ke did not turn his head, as if he was afraid that he had recognized the wrong person, and only stood facing the cold wind, tears falling one by one, connecting into beads .

     

    Listen to her nice voice when she says her name.

      plunged into the target.

    There were several cheers from the crowd, while the man on the side threw down the bow and arrow and came over to ask: "Who are you?"

    "Is it important who I am? Since I can ask someone to help, I will help her." Ye Youqing released his hand, took a step back, and left Cike's body.

     

    She looked at Ye Youqing's face, the tears could not be stopped, and she refused to look away.

    Xiao Yucheng on the side didn't pay attention to Ci Ke's attitude. She only thought that she was crying because she was robbed of her hairpin, so she looked up and down at Ye Youqing, and looked at it again. The swaying target.

    "Which girl are you, and why have I never seen you in the capital?" He doubted, "Looking weak, you are quite capable of archery."

    "Small family, not worth mentioning." Ye Youqing put his right hand behind his back, stepped forward and spread his palm, "Be true to your word, and bring the hairpin."

    Xiao Yucheng stared at her palm, and suddenly laughed out loud: "I only talked about the competition, and I didn't say it was only a competition, my jade pendant is a good thing, just shoot an arrow. It would be too much of a loss for you."

     

    Xiao Yucheng's complexion changed, and she stepped forward immediately and said viciously, "You witch!"

    Ci Ke did not hide, not even blinking, watching the woman who was taller than her take a step and block in front of her.

    "Then what do you think you need to do?" Ye Youqing said.

    The man was cut off by her, so he had to suppress his anger, kicked the grass, turned around and walked back: "One more round, whoever grabs the hairpin will win."

    Speaking, he waved his hand and threw the silver hairpin in his hand over his head, the silver hairpin spun in the sunlight, and finally landed on the top of the willow tree, hanging on the only branch that turned green.

    "Okay." Ye Youqing nodded, "Everyone be a witness, this is the last game, if Xiao Yanei still refuses to admit defeat..."

    "The mouth is mad." Xiao Yucheng sneered, although the woman in front of him seemed to be able to ride and shoot, and his strength was not small, but he was arrogant in martial arts and did not take her seriously. inside.

    After saying that, he suddenly jumped up, grabbed an outstretched horizontal branch with his palm, stepped on the trunk twice with his legs, and climbed up like a nimble monkey.

    There were more and more people watching, and as the male companions applauded, Ye Youqing was not in a hurry and walked slowly towards the tree trunk.

    Ci Ke kept staring at her back, clenching her clothes, not looking anywhere.

    When the man reached the highest horizontal branch, Ye Youqing moved his footsteps, his hands were hidden in the sleeves, and only his feet were used to stably jump up the branch, walk around the tree, The posture is elegant, and after a while it is easy for the man to be parallel, and the two reach out to the hairpin at the same time.

    Xiao Yucheng saw that the situation was in jeopardy, and when he rolled his eyes, he punched Ye Youqing's chest. Ye Youqing heard the wind, pursed his thin lips, and spun his back against the branches. While opening his fist, grab the hairpin from the other direction.

    Ci Ke, who was running hurriedly under the tree, finally stopped and looked up.

     

    Only hearing a scream from under the tree, Xiao Yucheng was hung on the tree by a sharp branch that stretched out, Ye Youqing loosely grabbed his baggy pants while his hands fell.

    After a bang, there were bursts of screams from the crowd. The girls who had not left the cabinet quickly covered their eyes, their faces were flushed, and they dared not look more. The men were also blushing and eating Eat and laugh.

    Ye Youqing landed lightly on the ground, turned her back to Xiao Yucheng's white legs that were constantly struggling, threw the torn cloth aside in disgust, and walked quickly to Ci Ke .

    As soon as she got closer, Ci Ke's tears that had just stopped began to tap again.

    Ye Youqing felt a little helpless and a little pity, and almost squeezed her hand to make a creaking noise, and then resisted the urge to wipe her tears, holding the hairpin in her left hand, gently inserted it in her hair.

    Besides Zhou Hong is pushing away from the crowd and running, Ye Youqing didn't dare to stay any longer, just said softly: "Take it back, don't cry."

    She didn't dare to look at Ci Ke's face, and hurriedly turned around and left.

    As soon as she walked around the lake and walked back to the palace wall, she was pulled by Shili who was hiding on the side, and she was reprimanded: "I just said that I was sick, but now I have all my skills in archery. On your face, are you afraid that the emperor will not doubt you and cause trouble for yourself?"

    Ye Youqing listened to her rebuke, and sighed when she finished.

    "I can't see her being wronged." Ye Youqing whispered.

     Shili was dumb, stretched out her fingers and pushed her forehead hard.

    She had a free and unrestrained temperament.

    The sound of footsteps came, and he stepped back ten miles and lowered his head, pretending to be a follower.

    The one who bypassed the palace wall was the long-faced servant next to the emperor. After two years of not seeing him, he has gained a lot of weight. He bent down and smiled and said to Ye Youqing: "Miss Chen is here, let it be easy to find in the next journey. , the Holy One wants to see you."

    Ye Youqing bowed his head: "The girl is only a grass-roots citizen, you don't need to be more polite."

     "What are you talking about, girl? If you can be invited by the Holy Master in person, you are the Holy Master's guest. I will wait for the servants to follow the etiquette." The long-faced inner servant smiled, "This way, please."

    Ye Youqing smoothed his sleeves, followed him through the walls of the palace, walked past the magnificent Xuande Hall, stopped in front of the Ganlu Hall as a study, and the symmetrical cornices stretched out high on both sides , the white jade steps reflect sunlight, which is a bit dazzling.

    Ye Youqing walked in with low eyebrows and pleasing to the eye, stopped in front of a wide table, the smell of paper and ink filled the hall.

    "The girl has seen His Majesty." Ye Youqing said.

    "No need to be more polite." The familiar deep and rich man's voice sounded, Ye Youqing knew that as a civilian he couldn't look at him, so he kept his head down.

    "Head up," the emperor said.

    Ye Youqing just did as he did. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and dark eyes, plump than two years ago, a red robe wrapped around his body, and his belt tended to collapse.

    Brain full of fat, Ye Youqing thought.

    The emperor looked at her for a while, then said: "You are very young, but you are very successful. It's not bad. I just heard that you are weak and sick, which delayed more than a month, but the palace servant who was serving the tea just chatted and said , you go to help the girl of the Zhou family to get ahead, is there any such thing?"

    "Yes, Your Majesty." Ye Youqing replied calmly.

    

    "Thank you for your praise, it was because of the problems that I had when I was young that I found someone to learn some fur to strengthen my body. A little less cold." Ye Youqing pretended to be praised and smiled modestly.

     Go in, put a handkerchief on Ye Youqing's hand, and feel the pulse.

    Ye Youqing knew how suspicious the emperor in front of him was, so he didn't say much and let him look.

    

    The emperor nodded and motioned him to go down.

    "Your Majesty don't have to worry, this year's disease has mostly recovered." Ye Youqing smiled sweetly.

    The emperor hummed: "As expected of a wealth of wealth in just a few years, she is a strange woman."

    Ye Youqing's performance was not revealing, and her identity was true, no matter how suspicious the emperor was, at this time he was relieved a little, so the topic changed: "You know what you are now The business you do, private iron equipment, is it considered light to behead your head ten times?"

    "The women know." Ye Youqing knew that it was better to open the skylight and speak eloquently, "But since your majesty never killed me, he intended to keep me alive. To serve His Majesty a meager force."

    "As long as your majesty speaks, the people will immediately order the iron needed for the war and send it to the border."

    The reason why the emperor did not dare to take it by force is just because the war is tight now, and most of the mining and smelting areas are in the north where refugees are chaotic and the army is in chaos. mining.

    Ye Youqing used the steel pouring method that he was familiar with in his previous life, and the quality and efficiency of the steel he produced were much better than in this era, and he was famous throughout the Central Plains.

    At first, Ye Youqing didn't want to be exposed to the public, but the emperor's people were pressing step by step. In addition to the years of war, the people are full of complaints, and the court has been weakened a lot. The timing is right. If she wants to move, she must know the court's actions at any time, so she simply reveals some clues, and waits for the people of the Imperial City Division to find her and infiltrate the capital.

    The emperor hummed and smiled, and suddenly said, "Do you know that there is no place for sand in the eyes of the emperor?"

    Ye Youqing heard his deterrence, still smiled calmly, and said softly: "Your Majesty never bound me to Beijing, but he is intentional to be kind, as long as the people can save their lives, naturally Do your best to serve His Majesty."

    Ye Youqing watched the emperor's mouth move, and finally returned to calm.

     

    Watching Ye Youqing leave, the long-faced servant hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, this..."

     

    Ye Youqing walked out of the hall and strode over from Shili who had been waiting on the side: "Isn't there any accident?"

    Ye Youqing shook her head, just as she was about to speak, she saw a familiar palace servant waiting outside the arch.

    "Miss Zhou asked you to go to the Autumn Water Palace and said that she would like to thank the girl for saving her." Gong Ren said.

    The Autumn Water Palace is the same as usual, just because the spring buds have not yet emerged, so it looks a little more depressed than before. The red palace walls are matched with dead branches, which is a sharp contrast.

     Walking to the door, Shili stopped, bowed his head and said, "Go in, I'll wait for you here."

    Ye Youqing went to pull her arm.

    "I'm not going." Shili took her hand and pushed her into the door, but suddenly stopped.

    Ye Youqing turned around and saw Ci Ke Zheng standing under the palace gate, looking towards her, hesitating.

    The Shili behind her gave her a shove, Ye Youqing staggered a few steps, and then raised her head, she was already standing in front of Ci Ke, the surroundings were silent, only the wind was passing by.

    "Ci... Miss Zhou." Ye Youqing said in a chaotic manner, her hands involuntarily hiding behind her back.

    Ci Ke looked at the pair of phoenix eyes that had appeared countless times in her dreams, she couldn't help but threw herself into her arms, and finally looked away and whispered: "Thank you girl for your help. ."

    "No problem." Ye Youqing said hurriedly, she greedily looked at Ci Ke's face, but Ci Ke didn't look at her again.

     

    Ye Youqing looked at his sleeves, stretched out his hand and lifted it to reveal his palm, where there was a square scar that had faded a little. The tip was shaking unconsciously.

    Ci Ke took a short breath, covered his mouth to hold back the voice, his slender shoulders shrank slightly, and his eyes were quickly filled with tears.

    "I was hit by a heavy object and hurt my bones and muscles, but I'm getting better soon." Ye Youqing saw her sad, flustered and sad, but she didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only talk Choose words.

    "Although gravity cannot be used, other movements will not be affected." She said.

    After saying this, her ears turned red.
