Yo, lost the jade seal?

In the middle of the moonlit night, the streets where the cold wind blows are empty and deserted.

Both Lai Yu and Ye Qiubai came back from the desert, and before they had time to change their clothes, the cotton batting inside the cotton clothes was several layers thinner, and they leaned against each other to resist the cold in the middle of the night.

When they finally arrived at the palace, the guards watching the night in the conservatory also looked lazy, and let the two of them in after only a glance.

After opening the door for a moment, the smell of wine wafted out from the hut, and the greedy Lai Yu quickened the pace of returning to the palace.

The night is still long, warm up a pot of wine, and borrow a few more hours from the night, with a beloved companion, there is nothing else I can ask for.

Ye Qiubai also followed Lai Yu to quicken his pace, knowing what Lai Yu was thinking, so he followed him tonight.

With anticipation, they didn't feel the cold anymore. The two of them hurried forward, and soon they saw the small courtyard of the harem, and a series of faint footsteps came from behind.

"Someone!" Lai Yu stopped, pricked up his ears and looked around.

Ye Qiubai also became alert and listened.

The footsteps were neither loud nor small, and they were rushing towards the two of them.

Either because the person was deliberately hiding the sound of his footsteps, or because the person's skills were so poor that he couldn't cover his own footsteps at all.

Lai Yu and Ye Qiubai could easily tell.

"Wait for him." Lai Yu folded his hands on his chest, very calm, more curious.

"Be careful later." Ye Qiubai reminded Lai Yu not to underestimate the enemy.

"Don't worry." Lai Yu responded casually, staring intently at the intersection.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and there seemed to be no intention of stopping.

"Ah~" A horrified shout cut through the entire street.

Lai Yu and Ye Qiubai also froze when they saw the frightened person in front of them.

"Kong Jingyuan!"

Kong Jingyuan got up from the ground with a look of horror on his face, he didn't expect that the two of them would just wait for him here in a daze.

Before saying a word, Kong Jingyuan ran away.

"Hey, where are you going!" No longer in a daze, Lai Yu turned angry.

When he was in the desert, he still wondered where Kong Jingyuan had fled to, but he didn't expect to meet him in the palace and dare to follow the two of them, Lai Yudeng was furious and chased after him without thinking.

"A Shu, don't be impulsive!" Ye Qiubai chased after him and asked Lai Yu.

Kong Jing fled back to Dadu from the desert, and now he reappears here intact, which shows that there is someone behind him to help.

"If he dares to make a mistake here, I'll turn him into scum!" Lai Yu didn't chase after him all at once, he had already made a judgment in his heart, no matter why Kong Jingyuan appeared here, he had no chance to stand up.

As for the purpose of tracking the two, Lai Yu was even more curious.

Ye Qiubai was worried, but he couldn't persuade Lai Yu, so he had to follow closely.

Kong Jingyuan was very familiar with the alleys in the palace. He led the two of them along the way, neither being overtaken nor getting rid of them. Turning around the dark alleys, the eyes suddenly opened up.

Lai Yu and Ye Qiubai took a closer look, when did they come to Ruanyan Hall.

Kong Jingyuan didn't stop, he came to Ruan Yan's side of the wall and walked through the wall.

"Go and have a look." Lai Yu didn't stop, and went towards the wall.

Ye Qiubai was speechless all the way, with worry all over his face.

Lai Yu was only excited to chase Kong Jingyuan, not aware of Ye's worry.

Taking a closer look, there is a big hole in the wall, not too big or too small to fit a person.

"A Shu, I can't go in any more." Ye Qiubai held onto Lai Yu who was about to go inside.

If they wanted to enter Ruanyan Palace, the two of them would have already gone in, so why bother to drill a hole, Kong Jingyuan's purpose was obviously to introduce the two of them.

In case there is an arrow blade on the other side of the city wall, there is nowhere to hide.

Lai Yu listened to Ye Qiubai's persuasion, and stopped digging in, but just looked at the hole where he could easily enter the palace.

"Then let's go around to the other side and climb over the wall." Now that we've reached this point, Lai Yu doesn't give up and doesn't want to leave.

"You should think about it, if you see something you shouldn't see inside, don't be sad." Ye Qiubai warned Lai Yu, Xie Xiangmei lived inside, which is why Lai Yu hesitated to explore, Lai Yu Yu didn't want to interfere with Xie Xiangmei's life.

Lai Yu didn't answer any more, and stood still on the spot, thinking and weighing.

Ye Qiubai didn't bother him either, leaning against the wall and waiting for him to think.

The cold wind never stopped at night, and the two who stayed outside all night were almost frozen to death.

"Let's go, let's go in." Lai Yu didn't hesitate anymore, took Ye Qiubai's cold hands and rubbed them together a few times, "It's freezing, let's go in and check around before going back."

Ye Qiubai silently leaned towards Lai Yu, letting him pull him to the other side of the wall.

Although the wall was high, it was not a problem for the two of them, they started to jump up the edge of the wall one after another, looking into the distance from the height, the hall was pitch black, without a single sound.

A few maids and guards who were on guard at night were scattered in several places, and they seemed to be falling asleep.

Lai Yu and Ye Qiubai looked at each other, both puzzled.

Not to mention what you should not see, even a normal hall would not be limited to these people, let alone a place where Jin Rui often comes.

Where have everyone gone?

"Go down and have a look." Lai Yu jumped and landed lightly, followed by Ye Qiubai.

Even though there were few people, the two of them cautiously found the main hall in the dark, pushed the window and jumped in without hindrance.

The main hall is full of gold and silver artifacts, which are especially bright under the moonlight, and the inside is brighter than the outside.

Lai Yu looked around, but there was no sign of anyone, so Kong Jingyuan should not be here.

Behind it is probably Xie Xiangmei's inner room, which is heavily guarded, it is even more impossible for Kong Jingyuan to enter, and Lai Yu will not set foot there either.

Just about to go outside to look for it, Ye Qiubai, who was wandering in the hall, called out to Lai Yu in a low voice.

Lai Yu looked for it in doubt.

Ye Qiubai was reading a book of poetry, before Lai Yu approached, Ye Qiubai hurriedly pushed the opened page in front of Lai Yu.

Lai Yu leaned over and took a closer look, and saw two lines of writing through the moonlight.

"The qin and the cymbal sing in harmony, and keep warm with the king."

"Two branches together, we will live together in this life."

"The poem is good and touching." Lai Yu got up and nodded with Ye Qiubai.

"Look at the handwriting, whether you are familiar with it or not." Ye Qiubai nodded the book, signaling Lai Yu to read it again.

Lai Yu lay even lower, looking carefully, the very powerful Qingjun lower script is very handsome...

"The handwriting left behind in that book of longevity formula!" The words were so beautiful that Lai Yu immediately recalled them.

"Look at the line below." Ye Qiubai clicked on the line below again, still shocked.

Lai Yu recognized it at just one glance, but was astonished for a while before saying a word.

"This should be Mr.'s handwriting." Ye Qiubai asked Lai Yu for verification, but it was confirmed that this was San Dao's handwriting.

Lai Yu took the book from Ye Qiubai's hand, took it out of the window and read it carefully, and after several confirmations, he closed the book silently.

"Yes, this is Mr.'s handwriting."

San Dao looked sloppy, but the petty-headed lowercase script was really neat and tidy, and it was unforgettable at a glance, how could Lai Yu not see it.

But, what does San Dao have to do with this Ruan Yan Palace!

One is an unknown person who left handwriting in the formula of longevity, and the other is a relative who has lived for nearly ten years. It is absurd to appear in the Ruanyan Palace in Dadu at the same time!

"Ridiculous!" Lai Yu laughed and threw the book of poetry into the dusty altar.

What's the matter!Lai Yu didn't dare to think about it.

Ye Qiubai hurried to pick it up: "Take this Book of Songs, and when I see you, sir, ask him."

Ye Qiubai would not try to persuade him to reconcile, nor would he make random guesses, if San Dao was really hiding something, he would have to ask clearly.

Lai Yu looked at the Book of Songs dejectedly, without a trace of renewed excitement.

He understood that it was useless to ask what San Dao didn't want to say, it was a waste of effort.

"Go and ask, how will you know if you don't ask?" Ye Qiubai resolutely persuaded, seeing Lai Yu's lost look.

What if the peak turns around.

At this juncture, they couldn't afford to be separated.

Lai Yu took the Book of Songs and didn't pay attention anymore, instead he asked Ye Qiubai: "If it's just you and me, are you confident in finding Yuxi?"

Ye Qiubai never thought that there were only the two of them left, this question stumped him.

Ye Qiubai really didn't have much confidence. He was the best at dealing with ordinary criminals, but he was too weak to deal with Sixiang and unknown forces.

"I... will try my best." The hesitant Ye Qiubai replied, and lowered his head feeling guilty.

Lai Yu threw down the Book of Songs again, cupped Ye Qiubai's cheeks with both hands, and looked him squarely in the face, with rare seriousness: "I will try my best."

Ye Qiubai raised his head slightly, looked into Lai Yu's moving eyes, his cheeks were flushed.

"It's not to die, why do you do this, don't say it"

As he said that, Ye Qiubai's eyes were slightly flustered.

When did he become so fragile, it was all Lai Yu's fault, insisting on being so serious.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything." Lai Yu turned back to laughing, pulled Ye Qiubai into his arms and rubbed the back of his head.

Ye Qiubai sneaked in front of Lai Yu's body, his mood fluctuated a lot, but became smoother.

At least he knew that Lai Yu would not abandon him again.

The two of them had long forgotten where it was, and after chatting for a while, the sudden noise outside brought them back to their senses.

There was a sound of jars being thrown outside, and a series of low-pitched cursing, Kong Jingyuan reappeared like a mouse at some point, it seemed that Lai Yu was still cursing.

Lai Yu's face turned gloomy, and he pushed Ye Qiubai away to go out and arrest someone.

Ye Qiubai hastily pulled Lai Yu to dissuade him: "Don't go, he dared to scold you outside, it means that he has found a way out, and you can't catch him even if you go out, it's a waste of time, go back to sleep earlier, I'm sleepy , Ashu."

Before the first half of the sentence calmed down Lai Yu, hearing Ye Qiubai yell A Shu softly, Lai Yu was agitated, and immediately pulled all his thoughts back to Ye Qiubai.

Lai Yu also knew that Kong Jingyuan's purpose tonight was to lead the two of them here to find scriptures.

As for now, that's totally making a fuss, so why bother to care about him and be angry with yourself.

"Then save his dog's life, and come to take his dog's head later!" Lai Yu said to Ye Qiubai very loudly, in fact, he was bluffing the people outside.

Sure enough, after Lai Yu yelled this sentence, the outside became quiet, only the rustling of the brush was heard, and he presumably crawled out of the dog hole again.

"Go, go back to sleep." Lai Yu didn't care about the things outside, hurriedly pulled Ye Qiubai and jumped out of the window.

Ye Qiubai had no choice but to let him pull, and was really sleepy.
