Don't ask him why he suddenly stopped in the middle of his sentence, just ask why the scene in front of him is too shocking.

His Royal Highness King Xiang came out of the inner room with red and swollen lips, and his clothes were messy, and his brother-in-law didn't look much better. .

"What's the matter?" Chu Tingyun stood in front of Ye Huaiyun so that he could fasten his belt.

Jiang Linxu cleared his throat, what did he want to say just now?Interrupted by this, forgot...

Ye Huaiyun straightened her clothes and reminded him: "You just said Mrs. Pan, what's wrong?"

"Ah yes!" Jiang Linxu patted his head, then remembered and said, "Ms. Pan's family is awake."

Ye Huaiyun was instantly surprised and delighted, and said to Chu Tingyun, "Go and see?"

The golden sun set on the outside of the window penetrated into the Qi window, and blurred on Ye Huaiyun's face with a blush.Chu Tingyun looked at him sideways, some things are about things that will come naturally, impromptu and wanting, unfortunately disturbed twice, so he gave up for the time being and agreed.

Walking on the road, the three just ran into Boss Li who was about to find them.

Ye Huaiyun couldn't wait to ask: "Boss Li, what did you find out?"

"It's clear after investigation." Boss Li said: "But I can be sure that in the past six months, no family in Tongpeng City has hired new servants."

"Where's the Jia family?" Ye Huaiyun asked extra.

Boss Li shook his head resolutely, "No."

Having said that, Ye Huaiyun has already decided in his heart that this matter has something to do with the Jia family.It happened that Mrs. Pan's family was awake, so they could ask her a question.It's a pity that the woman's brain was seriously injured, and her mind is still a little unclear.

Ye Huaiyun struggled to talk to her for a long time before he could barely understand what he wanted to express, and he spit out three words angrily - the deed of sale.

He immediately sent the shadow guards to look for Pan Han's house.

The afterglow of the setting sun was swallowed by the gradually darkening sky, and countless stars were dotted in the faint blue sky.

The wind at night was a bit chilly, Jiang Linxu pushed and shoved the two of them, eagerly hoping that they could go back to the house quickly, after all, he had unintentionally disturbed the good things between lovers, and he had to make up for it.

Chu Tingyun glanced at him speechlessly, and asked coldly: "Has Xie Lan arrived? A letter was sent two days ago asking him to come to Tongpeng City with the hidden guards of Luanxiao Palace."

"I've already rested in the courtyard." Jiang Linxu shrugged.Although he answered like this on his mouth, his eyes were full of strong condemnation of "Shouldn't you be thinking about how to be lingering with His Highness King Xiang at this time, how can you care about other men".

Chu Tingyun quickly pulled Ye Huaiyun out of the room, not because of distracted thoughts, but definitely because Jiang Linxu's eyes were too annoying and gave him a headache.

The shadow guard who was sent to get the deed of sale came back soon. Pan Han hadn't shown up since last night, including his own home, so it was extremely easy to rummage in the empty room.

Ye Huaiyun took a piece of crumpled rattan paper from the shadow guard, swept it roughly, and hummed, "It really is the Jia family."

Chu Tingyun also followed his gaze along the silvery starlight, and the signed seal in the lower right corner of the deed of sale was...

——Tianguanfang.

Tianguanfang, just by the name, you know it is a gambling house.It is also what they found out earlier, the only gambling house in Tongpeng City belongs to Jia's property.

Ye Huaiyun folded up the contract of sale and put it away, and said tauntingly: "Even my own daughter can be sold in the casino, this Pan Han is simply hopeless."

He immediately summoned the shadow guards of the Eastern Palace and asked them about what they had seen around the casino since yesterday.

"The subordinate is incompetent, and he didn't find any abnormality." The dark guard thought for a while, and then said: "It's just that I heard a few gamblers talk about the rules of the gambling house by chance, and I feel a little incredible."

Ye Huaiyun asked: "How incredible?"

The shadow guard said: "According to those gamblers, it seems that as long as you can win against the young owner of Tianguanfang, you can make a wish at will."

Randomly mention a wish... Ye Huaiyun is thoughtful, which is interesting.

Such arrogant words are by no means a promise that a merchant and a gambling house can make. Let alone Wang Xiangshan, the magistrate of a county, behind it, even with the support of Ye Huaiyun, who is the crown prince, it would be difficult. do it.

Ye Huaiyun turned to Chu Tingyun, "What do you think next?"

Chu Tingyun deliberately teased him: "His Royal Highness Xiang investigated and dealt with mediocre officials and cleared up civil affairs. Why are you asking me?"

Ye Huaiyun tapped his chest with her fingertips, "Because my business is your business."

Chu Tingyun was just a casual joke, but Ye Huaiyun's answer was so straightforward that he was taken aback for a moment.

But Ye Huaiyun suddenly remembered his life experience and knots, and added the second half of the sentence before Chu Tingyun opened his lips: "Your business is also my business."

Seeing him looking back, Chu Tingyun smiled faintly at herself, his eyes gleaming against the starlight, becoming more and more infatuated.

——Your business is also my business.

He was a little speechless for a moment.

"Why aren't you talking?" Seeing that he was silent, Ye Huaiyun asked.

"It's okay." Chu Tingyun said: "Why don't we go to Tianguanfang tomorrow and see for ourselves, maybe we can find something."

"Okay." Ye Huaiyun smiled, he also intended to do so.

The starry sky is endless, and the lamps hang on the corridor, illuminating the courtyard brightly.

The two just walked to the door, and Chu Tingyun pushed the door open for him, then gently pinched Ye Huaiyun's chin, kissed her closely, and said: "I've been away for a day, rest early."

But he didn't enter the door like yesterday.

In the end, Chu Tingyun watched Ye Huaiyun's slender figure gradually hide behind the door, with complicated emotions in his eyes, he stood there silent for a moment, suddenly smiled very softly, turned his eyebrows into gentleness, and then walked away .

In another courtyard, the real Xie Lan was sitting in the darkness, his pupils seemed to be smeared with ink, as if he was waiting for something.

"Squeak—" There was a sudden sound of the door opening behind him.

Xie Lan turned her head abruptly, her tone concerned, "Brother? Are you okay?"

"Not too good, otherwise I wouldn't have called you here in a hurry." Chu Tingyun picked up the fire pocket and lit the candle, and said calmly, "Today is the [-]th day of the month."

The newly lit candle flickered, Xie Lan hesitated, "Does His Royal Highness King Xiang know about this?"

Chu Tingyun went straight to his bed and sat down, "It's not a good thing, why bother telling him."

Xie Lan nodded, and didn't ask any more questions, just stayed with Chu Tingyun for a sleepless night.

The twilight shines through the veil, and the glow gradually appears in the east.

The dawn of midsummer was earlier than any other season, and Chu Tingyun went back to his room, thinking about squinting for a while.As soon as Ke walked around the screen, he saw a person leaning on the soft couch beside the table, wearing a water-green light shirt, reading a book in his hand.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Ye Huaiyun turned to look at him.

Chu Tingyun suppressed the fleeting panic in his eyes, and asked calmly, "Why did you wake up so early?"

"I couldn't sleep at night, so I wanted to talk to you for a while." Ye Huaiyun said.

As a result, there was no one in the room, so I lost my sleepiness.Bored, he randomly pulled out a book from the drawer, flipped through it, and the morning light came in unconsciously.

"I went out to deal with some things about Luanxiao Palace." Chu Tingyun explained: "It's urgent, I forgot to tell you."

Ye Huaiyun caught a glimpse of the Xuanyi sword in his hand and looked a little tired, so he didn't have any doubts about his words.

Chu Tingyun put the sword on the table and squatted beside him, "After reading all night, do you want to sleep longer?"

When he said this, sleepiness swept over the sky in an instant, Ye Huaiyun let out an airless "hmm", and let him hug her horizontally and lay her flat on the bed.

"I'll accompany you?" Chu Tingyun asked softly.

Ye Huaiyun moved sideways on the bed, which was a tacit consent.

Not long after he closed his eyes, he heard the rustling sound of the quilt being lifted, and someone slipped in with his coat off, his movements were very light.

Chu Tingyun stretched out his hand to hug him into his arms, Ye Huaiyun opened his eyes and met his smiling peach blossom eyes, the warm morning sun brushed off his temples, misty vermilion mole at the corners of his eyes.

"Go to sleep." Chu Tingyun's voice was low and hoarse.

He breathed in his ears, and Ye Huaiyun felt an itch in his intuition, and almost misunderstood something, turned his head and hid, "Today I have to go to Tianguanfang."

"That kind of place is the most lively at night." Chu Tingyun smiled, "Now sleep well."

Ye Huaiyun responded in a low voice, took the initiative to find the most comfortable position on his chest, and fell asleep soundly.

******

Xu time has passed, the number of pedestrians is decreasing, and the roadside vendors have collected the pavements one after another.

Tongpeng City gradually fell silent, calmed down as the watchman beat the bang to tell the time, and was ready to recharge his energy to meet the hustle and bustle of tomorrow.But when the lights of the city are gradually extinguished, there is still a golden and green pavilion with orchid ointments and bright candles, and the lights are wrong, so it is very lively.

Tianguanfang.

"Heavenly official, the emperors of the heavens." Chu Tingyun looked up at the door plaque, and snorted, "What a big tone."

Ye Huaiyun slowed down, "Are we going in like this?"

Chu Tingyun asked back: "Otherwise?"

Ye Huaiyun asked him: "Do you know how to gamble?"

Chu Tingyun said truthfully, "No."

"Not at all?" Ye Huaiyun asked again.

"Betting big and small, you can guess and try." Chu Tingyun said: "But the rest are really dark."

Ye Huaiyun: "..."

Chu Tingyun asked: "What's wrong?"

What else could be done, Ye Huaiyun thought to himself: two and a half people who don't know how to do this enter the gambling house, they are afraid that they will lose everything as soon as they go to the table, and there will be hardly any underwear left. How can they further investigate the internal clues.

Seeing through his thoughts at a glance, Chu Tingyun scratched the bridge of his nose with his fingers, and said confidently: "It doesn't matter if we don't know how to gamble, as long as someone knows how."

Ye Huaiyun asked: "Who will?"

Chu Tingyun replied: "Lin Xu."

"Where's Master Jiang Shaogong?" Ye Huaiyun turned around.

I looked around, but there was no familiar figure behind me.Only then did Chu Tingyun remember that he seemed to have forgotten to call him.

Ye Huaiyun: "..."

Why did it suddenly become so unreliable?

So, the two had to stand at the corner, waiting for the shadow guard to call Jiang Linxu.

After a long while, a young man wearing a crimson brocade robe came face to face from the alley, with a golden crown on his head, a jade belt around his waist and a lot of ornaments, every step he took was the clink of jade and stones.

When the man walked in, he took a closer look. He was shaking a golden lacquer jade fracture fan in his hand, and there was a jade finger on each thumb of both hands. It was more brilliant than the stars, and the word "rich" was almost engraved on the on the forehead.

Chu Tingyun made no secret of his dislike, "Have you lost your mind?"

"Aren't you going to the casino?" Jiang Linxu took it for granted.

Going in and out of a place full of dandies, it is natural to show that you are rich!

Not only Chu Tingyun, but also Ye Huaiyun rarely felt a headache, "How about Palace Master Jiang Shao go back and change clothes before coming back?"

"Why?" Jiang Linxu closed the fan, thinking he was very chic.

But it's really just self-importance. Coupled with this flamboyant dress that seems to attract bees and flowers, no matter how elegant the movements are, it can reveal a sense of country.

"Showing wealth is not about showing off your clothes." Ye Huaiyun said as tactfully as possible: "Besides, the young palace master's outfit obviously doesn't match our appearance."

Jiang Linxu looked at the two of them, and then looked down at himself. There seemed to be a big difference, so he touched his nose and said, "I'll go back and change."

But as soon as he turned around, there was another burst of noisy jingling, like a war.

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome." Chu Tingyun pouted, "Just take it off."

Do you want to be so simple and rude? !Jiang Linxu suddenly turned pale with fright, leaned close to his brother-in-law's ear and lowered his voice, "His Royal Highness King Xiang is still nearby, why do you want to take off my clothes?"

"..." At such a close distance, Ye Huaiyun said that he heard something.

Jiang Linxu gave him a bemused smile, and Chu Tingyun took advantage of the gap to slap his chest lightly.

Jiang Linxu took two steps back unpreparedly, but all the accessories on his body were held in Chu Tingyun's hand in an instant.

Ye Huaiyun looked at Jiang Linxu's plain appearance, nodded and said, "Sure enough, it's much better."

Jiang Linxu covered his heart and coughed, "Should the shot be so hard?!"

"You deserve it." Chu Tingyun said coolly, pulling Ye Huaiyun to Tianguanfang.

Jiang Linxu stood on the spot and shouted: "At least give me back my belt!"

After a good time, no one looked back to him...
