Reborn as the favorite of the cold-faced general

In the most elegant teahouse in Luxia City, Jin Sibai asked the owner of the teahouse to prepare the quietest private seat, and placed four cups of the best Bitan Piaoxue and a dozen plates of exquisite refreshments on the table.Chu Tingyun started eating as soon as he sat down, and his impression of the young master of the Jin family improved a lot.

Jiang Linxu, on the other hand, was concerned about Jin Sibai's tragic experience of being abandoned by the groom on the wedding night because of what he had just heard from the woman.

So Ye Huaiyun and Chu Tingyun were "fortunate" to hear a peacock in the west chamber flying southeast and wandering five miles away while they were eating.

Jiang Linxu wrung out the handkerchief for the seventh time and handed it to Jin Sibai.

Until Jin Sibai sucked his nose to wipe away his tears, because there were still some people in the house who left beforehand, the door of the private room was closed, and there was a lot of silence around his ears.

Chu Tingyun rubbed his forehead and finally let out a sigh of relief, curled his lips and complained, "Why is a big man so hypocritical?"

"Abandoned by the one you love, it is inevitable to be sad, this is human nature." Ye Huaiyun looked at Jin Sibai's lonely back downstairs, and suddenly remembered that he was so lonely and helpless in his previous life, so he He said with emotion: "When it comes to love, few people in the world can be truly open-minded."

Hearing this, Chu Tingyun didn't seem to hear his thoughts, he smiled and pinched Ye Huaiyun's cheek, and asked with great interest: "So... you will shed tears like that?"

Ye Huaiyun looked away from the window, took his hands stained with pastry grease in disgust, and asked without answering: "What do you mean, you will abandon me like Zhao Chuyang, or find another girl?"

"..." Chu Tingyun was choked and speechless.

He thought he was on the first floor, but unexpectedly Ye Huaiyun was in the atmosphere.So he coughed lightly and calmly said, "No."

The corner of Ye Huaiyun's mouth twitched slightly, which was more or less the same.

The atmosphere in the private room calmed down for a while, and after Jiang Linxu looked around for a while, seeing that neither of them had any intention of speaking, he swallowed and expressed his thoughts.

He thought he might as well stay in Luxia City for a while longer and help Si Bai find Zhao Chuyang.

While eating, Chu Tingyun clicked his tongue, "You are meddling too much. It is someone who lost her husband and son-in-law, not you who lost her daughter-in-law."

"How can this be regarded as meddling in other people's business?" Jiang Linxu tried to reason with him: "Sibai is my friend. If a friend is in trouble, he should help him!"

Chu Tingyun directly extinguished his hope without any room for negotiation, "If you want to keep yourself, we have to go to Zhiyang County."

Jiang Linxu wanted to say more, but Ye Huaiyun suddenly said, "We will stay too."

"Why are you interested in this kind of family matter?" Chu Tingyun put down the teacup and looked at him suspiciously.

"It's not about this matter." Ye Huaiyun corrected: "It's about the Jin family."

The reason why Lu Xia Jin's family is famous is not only because of the good business, but more importantly, the Jin family once produced a You Fufeng, who was just imprisoned this spring, You Fufeng Jin Wenxuan.

Recently, Ye Huaiyun became more and more concerned about Jin Wenxuan pouring money and corruption on him. Since his brother couldn't find any clues in Beijing, maybe he could try to start from the Jin family.

And if he is not mistaken, Jin Wenxuan and Jin Sibai should be brothers.

That night, Jin Xing, also known as Jin Sibai's father, heard that Jiang Linxu and a few of his friends were visiting, so he specially prepared a separate quiet courtyard for them to live in.

Jin Xing laughed and said, "If I had known earlier that nephews Jiang Xian and Chu Xian were coming, Jin would have gone out of the city to meet them in person."

"Uncle Jin is being polite." Jiang Linxu had the style of a sensible junior, "We were only passing through Luxia City, and we never thought we heard about Si Bai on the way, so we decided to stay for a while."

Hearing him mention Jin Sibai, Jin Xing sighed sadly, "Then there will be nephew Lao Lao."

It was getting late, and the two of them came and went and said a few more polite words, and finally Jin Xing said, "Your nephew might as well stay here for a while, if you need anything, please tell the servants at any time", and then ordered He left with the air of his landlord friendship.

After returning to their rooms, Ye Huaiyun had just poured himself a cup of herbal tea to relieve the heat, when he heard the sound of Chu Tingyun's Xuanyi sword being placed heavily on the table, and a cold voice: "This Jin Xing is not saying a word of truth."

Ye Huaiyun pushed the teacup to his hand and asked, "Why do you see that?"

"Stay longer?" Chu Tingyun repeated Jin Xing's words in a low voice, and said sarcastically, "His expression is clearly wishing us to leave quickly."

"But this is not a bad thing." Chu Tingyun continued to raise the left corner of his mouth very slightly, "The only way to show that he has a ghost in his heart is to chase someone away. Maybe you have guessed it. The Jin family really has a well-documented case." .”

"What are your plans?" Ye Huaiyun asked.

Chu Tingyun shook his head, "I haven't thought about it yet."

Ye Huaiyun stared at him with one hand on his forehead, taking in every subtle expression on Chu Tingyun's face, and finally said: "Every time you smile like this, it means that you have thoughts, and I don't want you to hide it from me." .”

At dusk today, they had already sent the Shadow Guards of the Eastern Palace to inquire clearly.

Jin Xing has three sons under his knees. Except for the eldest son Jin Wenxuan who was imprisoned for accumulating money, the second son is named Jin Shuzhu. Although the name is elegant, he is not polite at all. He still likes to be good at doing business and settling accounts. He has always been helping Jin Xing takes care of the business, and the youngest son is Jin Sibai who is not yet a weak crown.

Everyone in Lu Xia City said that Jin Xing really dotes on this youngest son.

At this time, Chu Tingyun thought that at least [-]% of this very favor was just pretending.

In Luxia City, the Jin family is far more powerful than the Zhao family. If Jin Xing really dotes on his youngest son, he should let Jin Sibai marry Zhao Chuyang. If he is willing to marry him, he won't see each other for a long time.

Ye Huaiyun really felt reasonable after hearing his analysis.

Just pondering, he suddenly tasted something different from Chu Tingyun's words, Ye Huaiyun raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "What are you implying alone?"

As he spoke, he pointed at the layered water ripples on Chu Tingyun's chest and skirt, and the black swirls faintly showed the madness after the hegemony, and he continued unhurriedly: "According to you, the imperial power must be More than anything else, it should be reasonable for you to marry an orphan."

So he suffered unreasonably the last few nights.

Chu Tingyun suddenly... held his fingers on his lapel, and said calmly: "I always thought that the relationship between you and me was because of..."

He stopped suddenly in the middle of speaking, causing Ye Huaiyun to ask curiously: "Why?"

Chu Tingyun just looked at him with a smile, slowly leaned closer, and finally put his lips against his ear, and said in a very soft voice: "Because you can't beat me."

Ye Huaiyun: "..."

The warm breath filled the ears, brushed against the soft touch of the ears, but he said such words that hurt his self-esteem.

And after the night, Ye Huaiyun had a deep understanding of what it means to have a great disparity in force.

Probably thanks to the effect of Shuiyinyu, this cloud and rain really fell into the clouds, half of Xiafei's body seemed to be burning, and the other half of his body was bathed in gentle wind and light rain.

Until the middle of the night, when the clouds disappeared and the rain fell, the air was full of ambiguity.Chu Tingyun propped his forehead sideways, looking at the flushed cheeks of the person in his arms, sleeping soundly, the corners of his mouth curled unconsciously.

Suddenly, there was a dull pain in his heart, and Chu Tingyun's arm around Ye Huaiyun tightened suddenly, almost waking him up.

He gently lifted the quilt and sat cross-legged.But luck hadn't even started yet, yet another needle-like pain pierced her heart.

Chu Tingyun frowned. Although he often needed to adjust his inner breath before, he had never had such a situation beyond his control. It took him half an hour to return the chaotic and retrograde true pressure, and his forehead was already full of tears. full of cold sweat.

He turned his head and took a look inside the bed. Ye Huaiyun was still sleeping soundly, so he was relieved and lay down on the pillow and twisted the quilt.

The night is thick, and the half-round moon is clear and bright.

When the breathing of the people around him stabilized and slowed down, Ye Huaiyun opened his eyes in the dark, and looked sideways at the Xuanyi sword on the table, but he was completely sleepless.

The surface of the sword that had been removed from the scabbard gradually showed a faint red light, spreading little by little on the silver-white sword edge, emitting a certain pattern like a ghost, casting mottled light and shadow on the wall.But in the blink of an eye, it disappeared again.

The ancient demon sword Xuanyi, Ye Huaiyun remembered the records he had read in books, and suddenly wondered if it was really just a simple weapon...

Early the next morning, when Chu Tingyun woke up, there was no one around him, and even the bedding was cold, but he didn't notice when Ye Huaiyun went out.

He picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, and glanced at the table inadvertently. Chu Tingyun suddenly narrowed his eyes, and the position of Xuanyi Sword changed.

At this moment, Ye Huaiyun opened the door and came in, and said, "Are you awake? I have something to tell you."

"Just now Linxu came to us and said that Zhao Chuyang is back." As he spoke, he found that Chu Tingyun's eyes were always on the Xuanyi sword, his face was gloomy, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he stepped forward to put the long sword into the sword for him Sheath, continued: "But you were in a deep sleep at that time, and there was no response after calling several times, so I went out to the front hall first."

Sleep more deeply?Chu Tingyun only captured this sentence, and tried hard to recall the situation before he woke up, but he didn't have the slightest impression.

People who practice martial arts have always had very shallow sleep, and they can distinguish even a tiny bit of sound in the middle of the night, but from the retrograde qi last night to the excessive sleep this morning, it is too unusual.But what is wrong?

"Tingyun?" Ye Huaiyun took away the teacup that was about to be crushed in his hand, and Chu Tingyun's hand stopped in mid-air.

Ye Huaiyun poured him another cup of hot tea, "Absent, what are you thinking?"

"It's okay." Chu Tingyun shook his drowsy head, "You just said that Zhao Chuyang is back?"

"Yes." Ye Huaiyun said: "Lin Xu said, let us go to Baisong Pavilion when we have time."
