The onlookers watched a once-in-a-thousand-year play, and they were all very satisfied, and gradually dispersed while discussing and pointing.Here, Master Fang approached the county magistrate and said, "My lord, it seems a little unreasonable for a man and a man to fall in love with each other so affectionately and with such great fanfare."

The magistrate of the county smiled and said: "It is just because it is unreasonable, so it is reasonable. If these two people really want to spy, they should hide their whereabouts. Even if they come to the door to try, it should be done in moderation. How can there be such a big incident? Aren’t they being talked about everywhere they go? The county doesn’t think they’re a big problem. Of course, Mr. Han told us to be careful in everything, so don’t take it lightly.”

The master agreed.Then I heard the magistrate say: "Master Han will be here tomorrow, he likes the actor from the Yongchen class the most, and he will be called to serve you tomorrow. You have to handle this matter carefully, in case you offend Master Han." , we have a few lives that are not enough to lose, let alone earning money in such a carefree way.”

The master repeatedly said yes, and then left.The magistrate of that county turned the screen and went straight to the backyard, while he said with a lewd smile: "Sure enough, the scholar is the most interesting. The handsome young man just now belongs to someone else. It's a pity that I can't get my hands on it, but it doesn't matter. I don't have any here." One? Hahaha, I just love to see your noble faces, but in the end you will end up with Chenghuan in the crotch, hahaha..."

He let out a long laugh, and the laugh was presumptuous and smug, which made people chill.

Besides, as soon as Long Xi and Zuo Yanting left the county government office, he hurriedly checked the situation of Zuo Yanting.Fang felt relieved when he found that the other party had only fainted temporarily.Back at the inn, put your lover on the bed and lie down.He himself was pondering over the whole matter here, knowing that he had accidentally touched a big secret this time.Moreover, he and Zuo Yanting broke in alone, now it seems that he was a bit careless.

The situation here is far more complicated and dangerous than he imagined.The county magistrate appointed by the dignified court was replaced without any notice.An incomparably prosperous county town has been so dilapidated that there is not a single word of it in the capital.We can see the means and power of the latter.If the identities of himself and Zuo Yanting are exposed, it will be very unfortunate.

While thinking, he raised his head inadvertently, only to find that Zuo Yanting was sitting on the bed looking at him.At the moment, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then he smiled and said, "Baby, are you awake? Why don't you make a sound." After speaking, he poured a glass of water for him and brought it over to feed him.

Zuo Yanting naturally refused, took the water and drank it all by himself, then said coldly: "What were you thinking just now?"

"You might as well guess." Long Xi smiled and put the cup back on the table.Looking at her lover's delicate face, a disturbed heart also strangely settled down.

"I originally wanted to kill you when you weren't prepared." Zuo Yanting snorted, gritted his teeth and said, "But seeing your serious expression later, it shouldn't be thinking about getting married, so I decided to keep you for now. A life, say, what are you thinking?"

"Actually, you guessed right, I was just thinking about our marriage." Long Xi laughed, and deliberately stood in front of Zuo Yanting with his hands folded, his posture clearly provocative, as if to say: " Come on, come kill me..."

"You... you bastard, when is it, you still have the heart to think about this?" Zuo Yanting was shocked and angry, and couldn't believe that Long Xi was really such a disregarding person: "Don't you still believe that The county magistrate is Master Shi? This... This is clearly someone else pretending to be, but you still have the heart to invite him to a wedding..."

When he said this, he suddenly stopped, looked at Long Xi suspiciously, then slowly shook his head and said, "No, no, you are not such a ignorant person, otherwise you would not go ashore, let alone meddle in this extremely sensitive matter." Something happened. Long Xi, do you have any plans? You...why didn't you discuss it with me beforehand? It made me worry for nothing."

As soon as the words fell, Long Xi suddenly embraced him, and the other party hugged him so tightly that Zuo Yanting could hardly breathe. Just as he was about to shout, he suddenly felt that Long Xi's head was buried in his arms. On his shoulder, he muttered: "Yanting, Yanting, I didn't lose you, it's great...it's really great..."

"Hey...you...why did you bring this up again? I...I haven't thought of running away in the past two days, you...you don't charge me with this unnecessary crime, and then take the opportunity to punish me."

Zuo Yanting was shocked, but he did not forget that just four days ago, Long Xi said the same thing after begging him several times on the dragon boat, and the next moment, he began to perform the so-called "" "Punishment", Zuo Yanting could not help but tremble when thinking of that experience.

"Yanting, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's not punishment."

Long Xi quickly patted Zuo Yanting on the back soothingly, then gently pulled him away, looked into his eyes, and said softly: "I thought there would never be a chance to love each other again between us. You almost Leaving me at one o'clock, that kind of fear made me lose my mind, and made me desperate to keep you by my side. When I punished you on the boat, I despaired of our relationship, and I would rather tie you by my side , let you hate me desperately, and don’t want to give you another chance to leave me.”

When he said this, Zuo Yanting lowered his gaze, his body trembling slightly.

The next moment, the whole person was gently hugged into that warm embrace again, and Long Xi said affectionately: "Yanting, I really thought we were done, and you would never say a word of affection to me again. But I didn't Thinking that God gave us a chance, you finally treat me like before, that means, I... I still have a chance, I still have a chance to love you and make you fall in love with me, Yanting, don’t you Knowing how happy I am, even... even if I die at this moment, I have no regrets..."

"Bah, bah, you crow's mouth, what are you talking about at this time?" Zuo Yanting was also full of emotions, and sighed to himself that he and Long Xi seemed to be tied together.However, when he heard the other party's last words, he suddenly remembered the current situation of the two of them, so he hurriedly stopped them.

"Yes, yes, if you don't say such depressing words, we will live, live well, and wait for the day when we are happy together." Long Xi laughed, and he could see that he was in an extremely relaxed and happy mood.However, Zuo Yanting thought about the so-called wedding three days later, but was so depressed that he was about to vomit blood.

"Okay, don't talk about these things. I just ask you, you don't really plan to marry me in three days, do you? Do you know how many things we have to do now? Do you have Do you have a clue? Or do you just want to benefit from public affairs..."

"Be safe and don't be impatient at the Yan Pavilion. From the moment I found out that the two of us had been noticed by them in the lobby, I suddenly had this idea."

Long Xi chuckled, and whispered in Zuo Yanting's ear: "Now the whole county knows us. They will let go of their guard against us. This will make it easier for us to inquire about things. And three days later, our Of course, all the elders and folks in the city should be invited to the wedding. This person is not Shi Qingliu, and there are those river lanterns in front of him. It can be seen that the common people must hate this fake county grandpa. We just need to raise our arms at the wedding, everyone Come forward together, we can take this guy down."

"What about after you take it down?" Zuo Yanting squinted at Long Xi, "Although there is some truth to it, but with your martial arts, it's okay to take down that guy now? You...are you really not just doing business for personal gain?"

"Of course not, Yanting, you have to believe me. I did this to take down this person in one go, and then mobilize the power of the people to block this news, and then find out the truth of everything, and then send troops over , Eradicate this big cancer that has endangered Shanlin County for many years in one fell swoop, and uncover the instigator behind the scenes. Really Yanting, you have to believe me, everything I do is for the people of Shanlin County.”

Long Xi made a vow, Zuo Yanting snorted, curled his lips and said: "No matter what I hear, I don't think it's the truth."

After he finished speaking, Long Xi laughed a few times with a guilty conscience, thinking to himself that I am not acting for the sake of private interests, but that I have private interests in public affairs, and I also take care of personal affairs while doing business.Look, how smart you are, from now on, Yanting, you will be my real lover, the original princess.

The more I thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and I was so beautiful that my saliva almost flowed out by accident.Zuo Yanting looked up and knew what he was thinking, couldn't help getting angry, pushed him away, and then said sharply: "My lord, don't blame me for not reminding you. It's easy for you to take over me, and it's easy to get married." It's easy, but have you ever thought that when you return to the capital, how will you explain to the emperor and concubine? Do you think they will agree with your nonsense?"

Long Xi smiled nonchalantly: "What's the matter? My father is wise and mighty, and has always told us that being a child of the royal family is a kind of sadness in itself. If brothers can no longer love each other, it will be even more sad. No matter how great the power , How could it be compared to the strength of the unity of brothers. So we were taken away from the queen mother when we were young, and the brothers lived together, and were educated by the father, the emperor's grandmother, and those great Confucians."

Although Zuo Yanting knew that the current emperor was very wise, he didn't expect him to be so insightful, he couldn't help being stunned, and was also fascinated by the emperor he had never met.

But after thinking about it for a while, it's not right, he looked at Long Xi suspiciously: "I mean, your father and mother concubine can't agree to your nonsense like this, why are you telling me these things?"

Long Xi laughed and said: "Is there a time when Yanting is so stupid? It's very simple. The few words I told you illustrate three problems. First: My father is very lenient on us. He doesn't care about martial arts and character. As long as my prince's elder brother marries a wife and has children, we people can naturally be more free emotionally. The father has suffered enough from the Sangong Sixth Court, and he wishes his sons could live their lives. There can be people who truly love each other.”

"Then what about the second one?" Zuo Yanting looked at Long Xi who was shaking his head, feeling angry in his heart, but he also had some admiration for his argument, eager to know the other two meanings contained in that paragraph.

"Second, it means that our brother's relationship is very, very good. Even if my mother and concubine disagree, but naturally there are brothers interceding in front of the father, and I married a man, naturally it is impossible to compete for the throne. That day The empress, who has delusions of being persecuted, must be greatly relieved, so she will help persuade my mother and concubine."

"What's the third one?" Zuo Yanting wanted to hit Long Xi, but couldn't help showing a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.Secretly thought that although this bastard was hateful, it was thanks to him that he could figure out all these tricks.

Seeing Zuo Yanting smiling, Long Xi was so happy.He hurriedly hugged him and kissed him, proudly said: "The third is even easier. As I said just now, we were taken away from the concubine mother since we were young, so the relationship with the concubine mother is very weak. Women in the palace, so The only ones I can rely on are my husband and son, so my mother and concubine don’t dare to restrain me very much, firstly, it’s not her turn to control me, and secondly, she’s also afraid that I will hate her because of it.”

Zuo Yanting took a deep breath and was stunned for a long while before sighing, "My lord, how can you say that about the imperial concubine? She is involuntary in the palace, and she can't even raise her own flesh and blood, which is pitiful enough. You should honor her more."

Long Xi smiled, shook his head and said: "The women in the palace are pitiful, but they chose that path by themselves. They hope that they will be rich and honored as their mothers and honor the world. Yanting, don't be stupid, what about the women in the palace? There are those who are simple, soft-hearted and kind-hearted, and there is no way to survive, even if it is my concubine mother, I am her son, and I respect her and love her, but I cannot deny that she is a ruthless person."

When he said this, he hugged Zuo Yanting tightly, and murmured as if swearing: "Yanting, don't worry, no matter how cruel my mother and concubine are, she can't hurt a single hair of your hair, I will do my best to protect you , I will never let anyone hurt you, not even my royal father."

"My lord... my lord..." Zuo Yanting froze in Long Xi's arms, and after a while he smiled bitterly and said, "Why are you doing this? You are a prince, power and wealth are at your fingertips, there is no woman in the world who can't marry I am proud of you, not to mention that there are many women with both talents and looks..."

Before he could finish speaking, Long Xi hugged him even tighter, and his voice became harsher: "No, Yanting, don't even try to run away. In this life, I've recognized you, and I've recognized you alone. You are rich and honorable." , fame, wealth and power, I don’t ask for anything but you alone, if God knows, he should fulfill me.”

If you say that your heart is calm and unwavering, it is a lie, and you can't even fool yourself.Long Xi was so determined and dedicated, even though Zuo Yanting suffered a lot from it, but a prince in the court spoke his words of love so swearingly in his ear, there was still a wave of turmoil in his heart.

"Okay, okay, I... am I right here? With a powerful big shot like you, even if you give me a pair of wings, I can't fly away. I have suffered once before, and I should also suffer You're wise, what are you worried about?"

While talking, Zuo Yanting even patted Long Xi's back, and when he woke up, he patted his hands several times.He really never dreamed that he would actually comfort Long Xi, this big devil who was always superior and only bullied him.

Long Xi was also petrified, he blinked in disbelief, then blinked again, after a while he looked carefully at Zuo Yanting, and asked softly: "Yanting, you...you...are you comforting... I?"

"No, I'm... I'm giving you a chronic poison." Zuo Yanting blushed in a panic.He quickly got up and got out of bed to run away from Longxi.

"Hahaha...hahaha..." Long Xi laughed hard.The excitement in his heart was hard to describe, he never thought that there would be a turning point between himself and Zuo Yanting so soon.For a moment, he seemed to see that his future love path was already full of peach blossoms, hehe, he felt that the day when the two fell in love was coming.

"Okay, okay, don't laugh there, like an idiot, you...you should hurry up and talk about your plan with me, lest I be kept in the dark."

"Oh, good." Long Xi jumped up from the bed.Come to the table and sit down, because he is very strong in martial arts and has excellent hearing, so he is not afraid of having ears on the wall, as long as he whispers to Zuo Yanting.

"This is what I think. Let's go to the county government to search tonight. It would be best if we could find some ledger transactions, or if Mr. Shi is not dead, it would be better to find a place where he is being held. If he is dead, let's see if we can Find out what evidence he left behind before he died."

Zuo Yanting nodded frequently: "Yeah, what then?"

"Then we'll come back, and tomorrow we'll go to the street again to tap around to see if we can find out where the men and children have gone. Before, I was just wondering why the streets were full of women, but now I'm sure. Yanting, didn’t you notice? On the way to the county government yesterday, not a single child was seen, no matter how dilapidated the county is, this is not a normal situation.”

Zuo Yanting nodded and said: "That's right, children naturally like to form gangs and join in the fun. There were so many people gathered outside when we filed a complaint yesterday, it makes no sense that there are no children. But judging by the expressions of those women, it seems... It doesn't look very worried, it's strange, what's going on here?"

"So, this matter has to be clarified." Long Xi tapped lightly on the table, and said in a deep voice, "However, even with this arrangement, we may not be able to obtain useful evidence. So the third step is to It's very important, as long as we catch the magistrate when we get married, and ask him the whole truth, then I can go and transfer my uncle's soldiers. At that time, even if the person behind the scenes is powerful, we will have a chance The power of battle. As long as we can return to the capital, everything will come to light, and the people of this Shanlin County will be able to escape the sea of ​​suffering.”

"Well, it sounds reasonable. It's just that you can't take me with you at night, right? I don't know how to fly over the wall."

"But if I leave you here alone, I'm afraid you will be in danger." Long Xi also hesitated. Although he has high martial arts skills, it is really inconvenient to take Zuo Yanting with him for such things as night spies.

"There will be no danger. They haven't become suspicious of us yet. If you are really worried, just help me set up some traps before leaving."

Zuo Yanting held Long Xi's hand, and said in a deep voice: "You are the prince, you are the prince, remember that the family and the country are the most important thing, and the love of children is the most important thing, the prince... no, Long Xi, if you... If you If you think that I will love you in the future, you...you should act like a seven-foot boy."

"Yanting..." Long Xi suddenly became excited.But nothing came out.After a while, Fang nodded and said: "Okay, let's join hands and return this Shanlin County to a bright future. When I leave, I will give you a few hidden weapons that can be shot out by pressing the spring. Then I will arrange them in your house. A few organs. Don’t worry, I will go and return soon.”

Zuo Yanting nodded.Suddenly he stretched his head to look at the sky outside the window, and said with a smile: "Hey, shouldn't it be time for us to eat? It seems to be past noon? Don't you feel hungry?"

"Yeah, yeah, it's already past noon. It doesn't matter if I'm starving. If I'm starving, Yanting will be guilty. What do you want to eat at noon today? Although the place is dilapidated, it's good that it's near the river. And mountains and forests, so there will be no shortage of river and wild game.”

"Eat whatever you want, with so many big things on your mind, how can you eat anything?"

Zuo Yanting also stood up, he really admires Long Xi now, he really doesn't know what the heart, liver and lungs of this person are made of, and there are many dangers everywhere, but he is still unrestrained and calm.Recalling that in the courtroom, he was eager to gain wisdom. Although he had deceived himself, it was really remarkable to be able to turn so much thought at such a juncture.

As Long Xi said, the food here is not bad, but there are no good cooks, and the taste is barely passable.Zuo Yanting himself didn't think it was very tasty, but seeing Long Xi chatting and laughing freely and raining chopsticks, not at all picky like a royal child, his evaluation of him was higher in his heart.

Zuo Yanting didn't realize it at this time, but he was unknowingly attracted by this person he hated deeply.Maybe it was the friendship before, or maybe it was the tenderness and righteousness that Long Xi showed in the past two days, in short, the deep-rooted hatred for him in Zuo Yanting's heart has gradually disappeared.

At this time, the people on the street also knew them.Inevitably, some people would point and talk to them, and Long Xi looked like an old god.On the other hand, Zuo Yanting, who was so ashamed and annoyed but could not attack, refused to eat half of the meal, and yelled to go back to the room.

Long Xi just laughed, and gave Xiaoer a tael of silver as a reward, and asked him to bring some snacks into the room, Zuo Yanting liked to eat this.

"Oops, just now I...was I a little too much?" Until returning to the room, Zuo Yanting remembered that he and Long Xi were going to get married in three days, and just now in the dining room downstairs, so many people saw his annoyance , he immediately became nervous, and asked Long Xi, "We...we are going to get married in three days. Does my behavior cause people to be suspicious?"

"How come, your behavior is just right." Long Xi chuckled, "Don't forget Yanting, I'm going to marry your evil cousin. You were so angry and frightened in class, now you have to show affection It’s the appearance of the money that makes people suspicious.”

"Oh, that's right." Zuo Yanting finally came to his senses and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Hehe, my Yanting is the smartest, he really looks like what he is doing." Long Xi came over and patted Zuo Yanting's face, and then kissed Zuo Yanting secretly on the lips.

"I'm not acting, I really don't want to marry you, hmph, Long Xi, don't think that you can make a fake show for real, I...I..."

Zuo Yanting "I" for a long time, but nothing "I" came up, because he remembered that even if he didn't marry Long Xi, he would still be tied by his side, and the lives of his relatives and clansmen were in the hands of the other party.

Fortunately, Xiao Er knocked on the door and brought some snacks, Fang helped Zuo Yanting hide the embarrassment.After eating snacks, he slept for a while, got up and Zuo Yanting began to read, Long Xi was busy arranging some small mechanisms in the room, and took out those hidden weapons with mechanical springs to teach Zuo Yanting how to use them. It's dark.

After going downstairs to have dinner, I still came back to my room. The waiter came in and asked if I wanted hot water.Long Xi said: "No need, I'll bring it here when I need hot water in the middle of the night, but you have to work harder, but don't worry, your hard work will not be in vain."

Xiaoer's ambiguous eyes slid around Zuo Yanting's body for a few times, he laughed and said: "Understood, I understand, the young masters should rest early, if you need anything, just go downstairs and find the young one." After saying that, he closed the door and walked away. went.

Zuo Yanting gave Long Xi a hard look, and said in a low voice: "You really don't change your mind, why are you saying such things in front of this little girl? Even if you want to show it, it's not the way to show it."

But Long Xi took off his clothes and put on night clothes. These were the clothes of the shadow guards. Before leaving, the careful Jin Niang had already considered that he might need to use them, so she prepared them for him.

"Yanting, I want to go there when it just falls into the night. Otherwise, I won't worry about you. At this time, most people outside have not yet fallen asleep. If you are in danger, don't forget to call someone. I will go back quickly. Those hidden weapons Do you know how to use it as well as organs?"

Zuo Yanting nodded, and then he saw Long Xi jumping out of the window with a beautiful "Nuyan Throwing into the Forest", and disappeared into the vast night in a blink of an eye.

I don't know what it feels like.Even though Zuo Yanting is not from Jianghu, he also knows how dangerous it is to visit the county government at night. Generally speaking, such things as night visits are done after the third watch.And the reason why Long Xi took the risk to go at this moment was because he was afraid that he would be in danger, and he wanted to come back sooner.

With a soft sigh, Zuo Yanting closed the window and turned around, saying to himself: "Forget it, let's do it like this, anyway... I can't escape." Although it is an ordinary sentence, it is Is the harbinger before a heart falls.

Long Xi went all the way across the house and across the ridge, and soon came to the backyard of the county government.Hiding in the dark and looking around, he found that the guards here are very tight. He was not worried but happy. The secret passage is very good. Such tight security shows that there are indeed things worth stealing here.

Just don't know where exactly.Long Xi thought about it and decided to use a stone throwing method to find the way.So he sprinted towards a big house that was still lit, and as soon as he set foot on the roof, he heard a few groans from below, accompanied by the grinning voice of Zhixian in the daytime: "I think you are still arrogant? Humph, Dare to scold me? You don’t even ask who grandpa is.”
