Along the way, as Kyoto got closer and closer, Jiang Ruanxi's heart became heavier.

Fifteen days later, they finally arrived in Kyoto.

As soon as they arrived outside the city gate of Kyoto, they were stopped by the guards.

Because Wei Chang's status is quite special, he naturally became sensitive after returning to Kyoto.

He came back as the second master Yu, and the prince's schedule was still ahead.

"Do you have a token?"

"Do you know whose carriage this is? How dare you stop our Yu family's carriage?" the groom said coldly.

Jiang Ruan Xi couldn't help but frown slightly at the noise outside.

In the past, when entering the city gate, it was just a routine inspection without strict inspection and then let go, but now listening to the sounds outside, it always seems to be much stricter.

She had just left Kyoto not long ago. Could it be that something happened during this time?

"If you don't take out the token today, let alone the Yu family, even His Highness the Crown Prince will not be able to enter the city gate without it."

"It's such a big air, who gave you the courage?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Chang's cold voice came from beside him.

Wei Chang's voice was like breaking ice, piercing people's hearts with coldness.

Coupled with the perennial coercive aura on his body, the man in the guard who had seen this aura was immediately frightened and froze in place.

While the atmosphere was freezing, a deep voice sounded, "Don't be angry, Mr. Yu, the guards are just doing their duty."

This voice always feels familiar.

The wind gently blew a corner of the carriage curtain. Jiang Ruanxi looked from this angle and saw a man wearing a mask standing not far ahead.

I just saw his profile, not what he looked like specifically.

Wei Chang just looked at him condescendingly and did not take him seriously.

The man didn't care and continued, "An assassin has appeared in the palace in the past few days and is now absconding. I have been ordered to capture the assassin, so the carriage entering the city gate, no matter who it is, must be interrogated."

"Ha, use the chicken feathers as a command arrow." Wei Chang mocked, "Even if we are arresting prisoners, we should also be capturing those who escaped. The people in charge should also investigate. Could it be that after the assassin left the city, he was stupid enough to continue again?" Is it possible to die?"

"Second Master is right to remind you that we did not handle the matter well. We will let you go now."

Jiang Ruanxi frowned even more tightly.

Although the man's voice was very hoarse, it felt like he had heard it somewhere before.

As the carriage moved forward slowly, his eyes fell on the man's shoulders. Jiang Ruanxi couldn't help being startled when he saw the tall and straight figure.

Could this man be...

But I felt that I was overthinking it. After all, that person was already dead.

"Who was that person just now?"

Jiang Ruanxi heard Wei Chang ask the guards around him.

"Sir, this man's name is Gongzi Su. I heard that he belongs to the fifth princess. They say that he was brought back from Northern Xinjiang by the Imperial Master. After the fifth princess met him, he asked for him directly." After five The princess seemed to be obsessed with him. She liked him so much that she couldn't bear to just serve her in the princess's house, so she risked her face and planned an errand for him in front of His Majesty. "

Are you from Northern Xinjiang?

The doubts in Jiang Ruanxi's heart subsided a lot, and she felt that she was overthinking.

She originally felt that the man just now was very similar to Lin Ningkun, but he was stronger and stronger than Lin Ningkun.

Lin Ningkun was a scholar, not a martial artist. The man just now was wearing armor, and he was from Northern Xinjiang.

"She is really becoming more and more shameless. She only cares about her reputation, but she is shameless enough to give him an official position." Wei Chang's face was filled with coldness.

The fifth princess is the child of His Majesty's favorite concubine.

He has been an unruly and willful person since he was a child. After getting married, his husband's family would never find peace. Within half a year of marrying, his consort was furious to death.

Now that she is alone, His Majesty takes pity on her, but she goes too far.

It was her family's business to raise countless faces like this in the house. Others just looked down upon them, but now she brought them to the public. This was simply a loss of royal dignity.

My father is really stupid to the extreme.

The carriage continued to sway forward, and finally arrived at a mansion marked Ling Mansion.

Before Jiang Ruan Xi could ask why he was here, he got a carriage and went out through the back door.

In a moment, we arrived at the back door of a house.

"Xixi, here we are."

Jiang Ruan Xi got off the carriage and was a little confused. Yu Yu said, "Madam, let's go in first."

The huge house seemed very cold.

At this time, Wei Chang was no longer wearing a mask, and his expression was cold, competing with the moon.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince." An old voice sounded, and Jiang Ruanxi realized that there was someone else present.

"Master Ling, do you understand everything I arranged?"

"I know," Ling Yu said respectfully.

Wei Chang was very satisfied and said, "Go down."

After Ling Yu left, Wei Chang explained, "This is the new identity I arranged for you."

Jiang Ruanxi's face was full of shock, "Master Ling's daughter?"

"right."

Jiang Ruanxi frowned, and Wei Chang explained, "You must also know that I am engaged to the daughter of Taishi Ling's family."

Jiang Ruan Xi knows this.

"I know, Miss Ling went crazy when she heard that she was at a marriageable age, and she seemed to have disappeared in the end."

"You are half right. Miss Ling is indeed crazy, but she is already dead. Grand Master Ling was so sad that in the years after Miss Ling's death, she kept telling others that Miss Ling had returned to her hometown to recuperate. My father also acquiesced to this Now that you are back, it is reasonable to arrange this identity for you."

Jiang Ruanxi understood, but she was still a little worried, "Although my identity has been changed, my voice and appearance are known to many noble people in Kyoto. If I meet them, my identity will not be directly exposed, wouldn't it? The success fell short."

Wei Chang handed her a white bottle, "If you take this, they won't recognize you."

Jiang Ruanxi took the bottle and opened it to find black pills inside, "This is it?"

"You only need to take two pills every fifteen days. Taking this pill will change your voice and appearance. Even if others have suspicions, they can't find any evidence."

Jiang Ruanxi didn't expect such medicine.

But I thought that it was with these pills that he could change back and forth between the second master and the prince, and no one could recognize him after so many years.

But if he couldn't recognize it, why would he wear a mask when he became the second master Yu? think

Wei Chang seemed to see the doubts in her heart and said with a smile, "This pill does not completely change the appearance, it just changes a little. If you want to know, why don't you take it and give it a try."

Jiang Ruanxi was also a little curious.

Wei Chang poured her a glass of water, and Jiang Ruanxi drank it.
