"Click."

Cheng Xiezhi rapped on the red sandalwood table with his fingers, and his voice sounded unhurriedly, a little muffled, just like his mood at the moment.

The system nervously waited for Cheng Xiezhi's answer. It couldn't understand Cheng Xiezhi's attitude. Logically speaking, the host should not hesitate to make this proposal. This is really a lucrative deal, but Cheng Xiezhi unexpectedly Hesitated.

It was a little beating in its heart, waiting for Cheng Xiezhi's answer.

"Nan Zhao." Cheng Xiezhi murmured softly, and pointed into a fist.The country of Nanzhao is located in the south of the mainland. Its customs are mysterious and there are no written records. Even Yan Lang doesn’t know much about Nanzhao. He only knows that in recent years, the head of Nanzhao has been seriously ill. There are signs of decay.And the guardian animal has existed in Nanzhao for hundreds of years. It is said that Nanzhao had the disaster of destroying the country several times, and it was the guardian beast who turned the tide to save it.

He has no interest in saving the common people from suffering, but the "National Fortune Feedback" that the system calls still attracts his interest.

"Let's wait until the envoy from Nanzhao arrives in a few days." Cheng Xiezhi replied without comment.That Nanzhao envoy was unlucky to say the least, he was supposed to arrive in the capital during the cold food feast, but he was chased all the way out of the Nanzhao land, and he had to slow down his speed. put off.

The system said "Oh", "Then I'll go collect some more information about Nanzhao."

Cheng Xiezhi closed his eyes and let out a soft "hmm". Yan Lang glanced in his direction and saw him sitting under the window with his face propped up in boredom. Laughing, he continued to bow his head to correct the memorial.

Yan Lang has a natural sensitivity to political matters, and this intuition helped him gain a foothold in the isolated and helpless situation in his early years, defeating his brothers and ascending to the throne.He has no interest in the supreme position that everyone covets for the century-old Yan family, but there is always a vague voice in his heart telling him that he wants to be an outstanding emperor and personally create a peaceful and prosperous world to welcome someone.

Until Cheng Xiezhi appeared, the shadow in his heart that always flashed vaguely finally had a clear outline.

This was also the last secret he kept from Cheng Xiezhi.

The matter of "Nanzhao" was tacitly not brought up by the two of them, and Cheng Xiezhi continued to find a queen for Yan Lang with great interest - but he often mentioned this matter in front of Yan Lang, and he didn't pay much attention to it on weekdays.Occasionally holding "Yanyan" in front of Yanlang, "Yanyan" can't get close to anyone except Cheng Xiezhi, especially to Yanlang, "Yanyan" is very afraid of him, when she sees Yanlang Just "meow meow meow" she threw herself into Cheng Xie's arms.

However, Yan Lang had nothing to do with the cat who was favored by Cheng Xiezhi, he could only smile helplessly and let it go.

But the original owner of the cat, Princess Zhaoming and Mrs. Tang Guogong quarreled, and the matter dragged on and on until it disappeared.She thought about it secretly, and decided to plan for her two daughters, then discussed with an old concubine living in the palace, and sent Tang Zijin and Ye Heyue to live in the palace for a while.

This old concubine is the concubine mother of the former emperor, the concubine of the previous emperor, and the grandmother of Princess Zhaoming. Take care of your life.

The old concubine originally didn't want to get involved in these matters, but she couldn't bear the plea of ​​the granddaughter of Princess Zhaoming, so she could only agree to plan a future for the two great-granddaughters.

Ye Heyue didn't want to enter the palace at first, she didn't think Yan Lang would treat her so well, but Tang Guogong's mansion couldn't let an adopted daughter of Tang Zijin enter the palace alone, it seemed that their family couldn't wait to climb the dragon and the phoenix, Ye Heyue couldn't Do not walk with her.Ye Heyue thought to herself that she had done the thing of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, so she was afraid that others would not succeed?It's a pity that she had no room to resist. It happened that she also wanted to take the opportunity to thank Cheng Xiezhi in person, so she agreed.

——This is why Ye Heyue ran into Cheng Xiezhi in the small garden.

Ye Heyue bowed to Cheng Xiezhi Rourou, raised her head and smiled slightly: "Young master, do you still remember me?"

Cheng Xiezhi let go of the cat in his hand and let it play by itself, then raised his eyes and smiled at Ye Heyue: "Young lady stopped me here specially, what's the matter?"

Ye Heyue looked around. There were blooming flowers, green trees, and a gazebo standing gracefully by the water. She made a "please" gesture, "Why don't you ask the young master to move forward and talk about it in detail."

Cheng Xiezhi raised his eyebrows: "Okay."

Cheng Xiezhi is still happy to deal with a clear-cut person like Ye Heyue.

Ye Heyue walked cautiously beside Cheng Xiezhi, and when Cheng Xiezhi sat down in the gazebo, she bowed to Cheng Xiezhi, "Thank you for telling me about my background, sir, if it wasn't for your kindness to help me, I would still be here now." Being living outside, I have not been able to recognize my parents and relatives. I entered the palace this time to express my gratitude to the young master in person, and it can be regarded as the fulfillment of my wish."

She said with a relaxed smile on her face.

Cheng Xiezhi's expression was indifferent: "You don't need to say thank you, I told you at that time that I didn't really want to help you."

"But I have indeed been favored by the young master." Ye Heyue shook her head in disapproval, and as her words fell, the system was surprised to see that the energy bar on its own panel had increased by a bit.

Cheng Xiezhi was about to speak again, when a clear and graceful voice came from behind, hiding an indistinct malice, "Sister Yue, who are you talking to?"

It was Tang Zijin, and she came forward with a few maids, Pingpin Tingting, dressed in a pink and blue brocade dress, and her gestures and gestures were all the style of a family of Zhongming Dingshi.She glanced at Cheng Xie without a trace, and after confirming that the identity of the person in front of her was not to be feared, her expression became obviously arrogant, and she sat down beside Ye Heyue affectionately, "Why did my sister leave alone? Wait for me? I don’t know who this young master is? This seems to be a harem that only His Majesty’s female relatives can enter and leave, young master..."

She hesitated to speak.

Cheng Xiezhi sprinkled a lot of fish food, and a pool of koi swam over, dyeing half of the pool of water golden, and answered Tang Zijin casually: "Female family? So the girl is the concubine of Yanlang Palace?"

What concubine, she is the future queen!Tang Zijin frowned and said reservedly: "I am the daughter of the Duke of Tang. I was ordered by the concubine to come to the palace as a companion. Please be careful with your words!"

Cheng Xiezhi propped his jaw to admire the koi, thinking about how these fat carp would taste like braised fish.

After Tang Zijin finished speaking, no one answered, only she raised her chin proudly, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Ye Heyue covered her lower lip, then pulled Tang Zijin's sleeve as if nothing had happened: "Let's go, don't cause trouble in the palace."

Tang Zijin has always been favored, and she believes that her status is precious. How could she have been treated with such disregard? One step to the sky!"

With a flick of her sleeves, she turned and left quickly.

Ye Heyue was dumbfounded, she didn't expect Tang Zijin to say such words without thinking, and apologized to Cheng Xiezhi with a wry smile.Cheng Xiezhi sprinkled some fish food again, and said with a smile: "One should recognize one's own identity, so as to avoid stumbling."

Ye Heyue was startled.

Cheng Xiezhi fed enough fish, picked up the cat playing in the flowers, and went back contentedly, "Let's go, go and see the gift from Nan Zhaojin you mentioned."

Nanzhao's envoys came to Beijing today and brought a lot of gifts, which are unique products of Nanzhao. They have been counted and stored in the warehouse. Yan Lang ordered the remaining part to be placed in the hall for Cheng Xiezhi.

System: "You just let Tang Zijin go away like that?" It thought things would get worse, Cheng Xiezhi's character was not good at all, and Yan Lang just had some ideas, so he got revenge. What's more, Tang Zijin almost pointed at him and scolded him like this.

"What do I care about with a teenage girl?"

System: "?" This is not like you as the host.

Cheng Xiezhi continued with a smile, "Anyway, with her temperament, someone will take care of her, why bother to dirty my hands."

The light voice, full of indifference and carelessness.

The system suddenly didn't know whether to sympathize with Tang Zijin.

"I'm just an innocent cat." He said again.

"..."

It decided to sympathize with itself first. There is a host who can change his face hundreds of times a day. It has not yet murdered the host. The system feels that it must obtain a badge that moves the stars.

It slowly told Cheng Xiezhi the latest news it had found: "This time the envoy is Prince Nanzhao, who is also the old king's favorite successor. As long as he can bring back the guardian animal, he can calm down the tension in the court." The voice of opposition, successfully succeeded to the throne."

Cheng Xiezhi narrowed his eyes: "You can gain some luck from this Prince Nanzhao. Anyway, it's a matter of killing two birds with one stone."

system:"……"

System: "You really worked hard."

Cheng Xiezhi sighed: "It's not because you are too useless."

System: "Can you please shut up?"

Why didn't Yan Lang close his little black room!The system hates iron and steel to think.

When Yan Lang stepped into the hall, there were no lamps in the hall, and it was pitch black. He couldn't help but secretly frowned, quickened his steps, and ordered: "Hold the lamp."

"No need." Cheng Xiezhi's soft voice sounded nearby, his words were a little vague, like talking in sleep, different from usual, "I told them not to light the lamp."

"What happened?" Yan Lang couldn't help asking, it was the first time that Cheng Xiezhi didn't light the lamp at night, he liked the bright environment very much, and had an almost instinctive dislike for the dark.

This made Yan Lang's heartstrings suddenly tense.

He walked quickly into the inner hall, and saw Cheng Xiezhi sitting on the window with one leg bent, the golden bells on his ankles swaying delicately, his wide sleeves rolled up in the evening wind, and the moonlight streaming in from behind him, It reflected his eyebrows and eyes like a beautiful and bright flower blooming in the snow.He looked down at Yan Lang, seemed to confirm for a long time, and then said softly: "You are here."

Yan Lang walked up to Cheng Xiezhi and held his wrist, "Well, I'm here."

Only then did he notice that his eyes were no longer as clear as before, covered with a layer of mist, more hazy than moonlight.He lowered his head and scanned the wine jars piled up under the window—they were the specialty peach blossom wine sent by Nanzhao. It is said that even a person who is not drunk after a thousand cups would not be able to drink even one jar, and would get drunk and pass out.

But looking at the wine jars on the ground... Yan Lang smiled wryly, Cheng Xiezhi probably drank all of it to get this drunk.

Cheng Xiezhi tilted his head at this time, and shook his hand away from Yan Lang's. Following his movement, the golden bell on his ankle shook crisply, "I want to come down, you have to catch me."

He looked at Yan Lang as a matter of course.

Yan Lang looked back at him, Cheng Xiezhi had already jumped off before he could blurt out the word "good".Yan Lang stretched out his hand to catch him firmly, only to realize that the person in front of him was incredibly light, perhaps because he was just a cat.

Cheng Xiezhi stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around his neck, mist in his eyes blurred: "Can you come with me?"

Yan Lang was stunned, and after a while, he suddenly realized that Cheng Xiezhi seemed to be talking to him, and asked calmly, "Walk with you?"

Cheng Xiezhi looked up at him, and fell into a long thought. When Yan Lang thought he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly opened his eyes, and his voice was brisk, with a rising tone.

"Let's run away!"
