"How are you?" Zhou Yi was sitting in the lobby of the Zhuangyuan Building, and greeted Ye Sirui as soon as he saw him.

Ye Sirui's mood was ups and downs this day, seeing Zhou Yi waiting for him, his heart still felt warm, "Go up and talk." He whispered, and Zhou Yi walked up the stairs with him.

Ye Sirui's fingers and ears brushed against the robes of the people beside him from time to time.Ye Sirui sighed in his heart, if only this moment of walking side by side could last a little longer.

As soon as he entered the room, Zhou Yi looked at him with concern.Ye Sirui pretended not to see him, "Where is Yuan De? Tell him to come see me."

As soon as Chaming heard the order, she hurriedly got up and went out, and came back with the little eunuch after a while.Yuan De had been waiting for Ye Sirui for most of the morning, and finally saw him, suppressed the excitement in his heart, closed the door with Shiling Chaming, and saluted impatiently, and said: "Master Ye is really clever, I will pass on the words of your lord , asked who was the student of the previous principal in the Imperial Hospital, and sure enough, several of them were found, and the younger one asked them who went with the principal on the night that King Xiang was assassinated. It's the imperial physician."

Ye Sirui was not as excited as Yuan De thought, he listened to these words absent-mindedly, but asked another question: "How did King Xiang die?"

"This..." Yuan De was stunned for a moment before answering: "The wound was caused by a short knife such as a dagger. It hit the throat and killed him with a single blow. Doctor Qiu said that he was skilled in the technique. I'm afraid assassins specialize in this kind of business." Ingenious, it is the consistent style of the Tai Hospital. It is dedicated to this kind of business. What kind of business is it?When the assassin is found, no matter whether the assassin is a killer, a person from the Jianghu, a guard, or even a butcher outside, the imperial doctor can't find fault with what he said.

"I see, you can go back."

Yuan De was stunned again. "Your Excellency, don't you want to see Yu Yuyi for a question in person?"

Ye Sirui shook his head. "No need, these are enough, thank you for your hard work."

Yuan De had no choice but to leave, and retreated outside. When he reached the door, he stopped again, and asked with some hesitation: "Master Ye... what did Master Ye gain?"

"It's been a lot of harvest." Ye Sirui said looking out the window.

Yuan De exited the room and gently closed the door.

After Yuan De went out, there was no sound in the room, and Ye Sirui fell into deep thought as if he had fallen into a trance.Chaming felt that she would be in the way by being there, not to mention that the atmosphere was so scary, she made tea and followed Yuande out lightly.

Ye Sirui sat on the chair, gently grasped the armrest of the chair with five fingers, then slowly released it, and finally tapped the armrest with the tip of his index finger.Zhou Yi suddenly felt that this movement was somewhat familiar.He walked behind Ye Sirui, put his hands on Ye Sirui's shoulders and kneaded slowly. "Zhou Yi?" Ye Sirui asked in confusion.

"Aren't you tired after running around these days? I'll give you a massage."

Ye Sirui relaxed his body and sat back, Zhou Yi pinched his shoulders once, sometimes with a lot of force, Ye Sirui would inevitably cry out in pain, but after the massage, his shoulders and back felt much lighter instantly.It's just that Ye Sirui couldn't think anymore, after walking for a long time, his train of thought just stopped.

"Let's go, let's go eat." Ye Sirui stood up helplessly.

When he went downstairs, Zhou Yi asked again: "Where are you going this afternoon?"

"Not going anywhere." Ye Sirui said.

Ye Sirui kept his word, and he really didn't take a step out of the room all afternoon.Not only that, he was bored in the room and did nothing, just sat with his eyes open, as if in a daze.

Zhou Yi just sat in the room and stared at him.In the end, Zhou Yi couldn't hold back any longer, so he ran to the street for a walk on the pretext of going to practice martial arts.No matter when, the markets in the capital are always bustling, but Zhou Yi is alone. These are just things he has been used to seeing for so many years, and nothing is interesting to see.

Finally, he stopped in front of a Shuyuxuan.As the name suggests, Shu Yuxuan sells jade wares.Zhou Yi has excellent eyesight, and when he looked around, most of the shops were women wearing veils or with their hair tied up in men's clothing.Zhou Yi hesitated for a while, then walked in.

He remembered the jade belt buckle that Ye Sirui gave him.He was reluctant to use it, so he always wore it on his body after wrapping it up.He doesn't know much about jade wares, but he can still see the value of that jade belt buckle.

He thought, maybe he should give Ye Sirui something in return.

The store has a complete range of jade wares, including jade pendants, jade rings, jade bracelets, jade earrings, jade fan pendants...there are both men's and women's accessories.Zhou Yi turned around, and finally set his eyes on a hosta.

The jade hairpin is for men, it is slightly shorter than women's hairpins, the whole body is crystal clear and smooth, simple and generous, except for a few cloud patterns, there is no extra decoration.Looking at the jade hairpin, Zhou Yi couldn't help but hear that he was sitting on the side of the bed playing with Ye Sirui's hair a few days ago. It was soft and shiny, like an unformed brocade.With a sour voice, he asked, "How do you sell this jade hairpin?"

The waiter in the shop had noticed Zhou Yi a long time ago, for no other reason than Shu Yuxuan really didn't match him.Shu Yuxuan's customers are mostly noble ladies, occasionally men, who are also wealthy sons.This person was wearing a black cloth shirt, with no accessories on his body, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like he was here for shopping.

"Did the guest officer buy it as a gift?" He asked speculatively.Zhou Yi nodded.The shop waiter immediately laughed and said: "The guest officer has a good eye. This cloud pattern is the meaning of promotion and wishful thinking. It is the best to give it to others! This is Xiuyu, which is extremely precious! Except for such small pieces, large All materials must be paid as tribute! You are looking at this carving, which was carved by our best master..."

The waiter in the shop kept talking non-stop, Zhou Yi had to interrupt him, "I ask you, how much does it cost?"

The shop waiter's eyeballs kept rolling. "Seeing that you are a little unfamiliar, I think you are a new customer. I don't ask you how much you want for this hairpin. It's a gift for a meeting. 50 taels, how about 50 taels of silver?"

"It's too expensive." Zhou Yi said bluntly. "I saw that the lady bought women's hairpins, and two of them cost only 15 taels."

The waiter in the store didn't expect Ye Sirui to hear other people's quotations, and he widened his eyes for a moment, and said quickly: "Guest officer, you can't compare like this, those hairpins are ordinary materials, how can they be compared with Xiuyu?"

Zhou Yi remained unmoved. "20 taels, no more, no matter how expensive it is."

The waiter in the shop saw such a desperately bargaining customer for the first time, and was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. When he heard that he was going to be early, he quickly stopped him, "Guest officer, please wait a little longer." He looked at Zhou Yi indifferently. With a painful look in his eyes, he said reluctantly, "25 taels, no less, this price is already low enough."

Zhou Yi turned around and left.

"Guest officer!" The waiter had to stop him, "20 taels! Just 20 taels!"

Zhou Yi walked a few steps, then came back, took out the silver from his body and gave it to him, telling him to wrap up the jade hairpin,

20 taels of silver is not a small amount, and Zhou Yi's entire net worth is about the same.But he is different from Ye Sirui, the killer is in the Jianghu, he may run for his life at any time, he has long been used to carrying important things with him, his real luggage is only a few clothes, he can throw them away and buy them again at any time.

When Zhou Yi returned to Zhuangyuan Building, Ye Sirui was still sitting there, and it seemed that he hadn't moved his place all afternoon.It was already dark in the room, but the lights were not even on, it was pitch black.Zhou Yi was secretly worried, walked up and said, "Walk around on the road, I bought something for you."

"Ah? Didn't you go out to practice martial arts just now?" Ye Sirui asked strangely when he woke up from his contemplation.

It seemed that he was no longer aware of the passage of time.Zhou Yi shook his head, first lit the lamp on the table, and then gave him the wrapped jade hairpin.

Ye Sirui took it in surprise, opened the cloth, saw the jade hairpin, his eyes widened and he couldn't speak.Zhou Yi felt that he should say something, so he forced out a sentence: "You gave me a jade belt buckle, I think... I think I should give you something in return."

Ye Sirui looked at it for a moment, then tapped lightly with his fingers, "This is Xiuyu, did it cost you a lot of money?"

"It's okay." Zhou Yi said truthfully, "The store quoted a high price, and I cut it in half."

It was rare that Zhou Yi's Yumu brain was opened, but what he said made Ye Sirui dumbfounded. "You really know everything." He played with the hairpin and admired it for a while, then said, "Put it on for me."

Ye Sirui laughed and said something, Zhou Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.He took the jade hairpin and carefully put it on for Ye Sirui.Ye Sirui's face was also like jade, delicate and smooth under the candlelight.Zhou Yi stared at it for a while, then said, "It's getting late, let's go downstairs and have something to eat."

I thought Ye Sirui should be obedient when it came to this point, but Ye Sirui shook his head, "I'm not hungry."

Zhou Yi was a little anxious. "What are you thinking? You want to know the truth, and I've told you everything. If you want to know anything else, just ask me."

Ye Sirui's smile disappeared at some point, and he just stared at him with such obscure eyes. "Zhou Yi, if you're hungry, go down and eat by yourself."

Ye Sirui didn't say a word until he fell asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Yi went out to find a flat place to practice his sword. The sword moved wherever he wanted, and he swung it wantonly. Finally, he felt better.When he returned to his room, Ye Sirui actually changed into regular clothes, as if he was about to go out.

"Where are you going?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Put the sentence under the Procuratorate, so you don't have to come along." Ye Sirui said.

Ye Sirui said for the first time yesterday that he wanted to be quiet, and shut himself up in the room all afternoon when he came back, and today he said for the first time that he would not be allowed to follow.How can Zhou Yi relax? "You wait, I'll change my clothes and go with you." Without waiting for Ye Sirui's answer, he untied his coat and tore it off.Because he went to sword practice in the morning, he wore very little, and his outer shirt was already soaked with sweat.He stripped off his clothes three times and five times, and changed into a clean dark blue straight body.After he was dressed, Ye Sirui was still standing there, with the same complicated expression. "Let's go." Zhou Yi said.
