In the past two days, there has been some unrest in the capital.

Even ordinary people can feel a harbinger of the coming storm, the most obvious of which is that there seem to be more officers and soldiers patrolling the city on the streets.

But all this has nothing to do with Chu Ying, he occasionally went to the palace to see Xiao Yajun in the past two days, because of the rain, the two can only stroll around the palace, and then chant poetry or something.

And Liang Huang seems to have forgotten Chu Ying, but this is normal, not only the undercurrent in the capital, but also the outside is also turbulent.

The smell of gunpowder between King Qin and King Yan in their respective borders is getting stronger and stronger, and Liang Huang Xiao Huan is thinking of how to calm this turmoil.

The spring rain is long, and it will not end at once.

The night rain was even more bleak, and Chu Ying held an oil-paper umbrella, carrying a drunken spring breeze from the Taihu Lake Tower in her hand, and slowly walked on the dark street.

This is a gathering place for ordinary people, with flat houses on both sides, and at this moment, it is already the hour, and most of the ordinary people’s homes have turned off the lights.

Occasionally, there are one or two wealthier families, and the lights are still on, some people are reading at night, and some people are busy doing some work.

Chu Ying kept walking northwest, getting more and more remote, and finally stopped in front of a small residential courtyard with an old couplet pasted at the door of a house.

Knock – three knocks on the door.

After a while, an old voice sounded in the courtyard.

“Who?”

“An old friend.” Chu Ying replied lightly.

The courtyard door creaked open, and an old man with a half-haired hair opened the door, holding an umbrella, holding a lamp in his hand, and squinting at Chu Ying outside the door.

“This noble man is afraid that he has gone to the wrong door.” The old man could see the brocade robe that Chu Ying was wearing.

Although Chu Ying did not wear any gorgeous clothes, the material of the clothes was quite high-grade, and it was definitely not something that ordinary people could afford to wear.

Chu Ying smiled slightly: “That’s right, this is it, you are Weng Lao.” ”

Weng Lao was stunned, but he didn’t expect that this young man actually knew himself, so he looked at it for a while, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen Chu Ying.

“This little brother is…”

“Prince of Northern Liang—Chu Ying.” Chu Ying still replied with a gentle smile.

Click-

A bolt of lightning cut through the night sky, and Chu Ying’s gentle smiling face became clear in Weng Lao’s eyes, but I don’t know if the night rain was too wet and cold, he couldn’t help but tremble, and his dim old eyes suddenly widened.

“North….. King of Northern Liang… Saiko?! Weng Lao snorted, and then knelt on the steps of the doorway with a “poof”, “Grass….. The grass people have seen… His Royal Highness Shizi. ”

“Huh~” Chu Ying chuckled, and stepped into the small courtyard, “Get up, Weng is old, the rainy weather is cold, kneeling is not good for the body.” ”

After speaking, Chu Ying did not wait for Elder Weng to respond, so he walked straight towards the lighted room.

Seeing Chu Ying walking towards the house, Elder Weng changed his face, stood up from the ground, closed the courtyard door, and quickly followed.

The furnishings of the living room of the house are very simple, just an old blackened wooden table, some agricultural tools, a cloak on the wall, and three spirit tablets in the center.

Chu Ying put the drunken spring breeze in her hand on the table, and then sat down on the bench on the side.

Elder Weng stood cautiously on the side, seeing that Chu Ying was looking at the room, so he plucked up the courage to speak: “I don’t know, His Royal Highness Shizi visited the Hanshe late at night, is there anything wrong?” ”

“Didn’t we just say, I’m an old man.” Chu Ying said with a smile.

Elder Weng was puzzled: “However, the grass people have never seen His Royal Highness Shizi?” ”

“I didn’t mean you.” Chu Ying shook her head, and then looked at the back room where Old Weng was blocked, “I mean the one in your room.” ”

Weng Lao’s face changed suddenly, his heart beat faster, and he hurriedly said: “There is only an old man in the grass people’s family, not even a mother-in-law, where are there other people.” ”

Chu Ying did not listen to Elder Weng’s words, but said in a loud voice: “This place is secluded, but it is leisurely, but after all, the conditions are more difficult, and you may not be used to living, do you think I am right-Brother Xiao.” ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the room, and Elder Weng’s face was completely bloodless, and he looked at Chu Ying who was sitting there in horror.

A moment later, the door of the back room was pulled open, and a young man with a gentle face slowly walked out.

This young man was none other than Xiao Yu, the long-disappeared son of the King of Qin!

Xiao Yu wore a simple green shirt, walked to Chu Ying and sat down opposite Chu Yu with a calm face, and said to Weng Lao on the side: “Go and get two bowls, there will be distinguished guests tonight.” ”

“Gongzi…” Weng Lao glanced at Chu Ying, a little hesitant.

Xiao Yu said with a smile: “It’s okay, I am an old friend with Chu Shizi, you can bring the bowl, and by the way, go to Aunt Li’s restaurant to buy some wine and dishes.” ”

Weng Lao opened his mouth, and finally sighed: “Understood, the old man will go out.” ”

Elder Weng turned around and went out, and by the way, he closed the door of the house, and suddenly only Chu Ying and Xiao Yu were left sitting opposite each other in the room.

The smile on Chu Ying’s face became brighter, looking at Xiao Yu, who was dressed like an ordinary gentleman, and spoke: “Brother Xiao really let me look for a long time, why don’t I let people come to say hello in the capital, but I have been worrying about Brother Xiao during this time.” ”

A thunder exploded outside the house, shocking everything, rain and howling…
