〖Emperor〗 Don't lose prosperity

Su Ye, who played all day at dusk, had already fallen asleep lying on Mo Zi's back.

Mo Zi smiled and said, "The child can sleep well."

Ye Shuang asked: "Tomorrow we will leave for Hangzhou City, so where do you plan to go?"

"Hangzhou City?" Mo Zi thought for a while, and said, "I will go with you."

Ye Shuang stared: "Isn't it? You still want to follow us?"

Mo Zi glanced at him: "What's the matter? You guys don't have an opinion, but you have an opinion?"

Ye Shuang raised her eyebrows: "I just think that you are doing nothing and not doing your job properly!"

"Of course not. I'm not in a hurry for what I'm going to do, so I'll go to Hangzhou City with you first."

As he said that, Mo Zi gave him a big smile, but Ye Shuang resolutely turned his head away from him.

……

When Xiao Zixian returned to the room, he saw Qing Lingde pulling his head, lacking energy, and couldn't help but want to laugh.And Qing Ling, who had been bored for a day, saw his master came back, so he ran to his side quickly, flew around him several times, still chirping.

Xiao Zixian suppressed his smile after hearing this, and then sat in front of the bed, thinking.

Qing Ling was worried that she had offended her master, so she stopped on his shoulder and rubbed her head against him.

Xiao Zixian smiled and said softly: "I don't blame you. I will write a letter later, and you have to deliver it to them for me."

Qing Ling called out as a promise.

When picking up the pen and ink, Xiao Zixian still hesitated, but he finally wrote.

After finishing writing, he tied the letter to Qingling's leg.

So Qing Ling with the letter flew out of the house and flew into the moonlight.

When it was time to light the lamp, Ye Shuang ran into Ye Yi's room and said, "I'm leaving Kaishui Town tomorrow, I can't sleep..."

Looking around, there was no one in the room.

"Tsk, if you don't stay in the room so late, where did you go?"

Ye Shuang sat down on the bed with an unhappy expression on her face.I thought that when his brother came back, he must interrogate him carefully!Go out without saying a word!

In fact, shortly before Ye Shuang came in, Ye Yi remembered that there was one important thing to do, so he put on his coat and went out.

Qishui Town is the place where Ye Yi and two brothers stayed in the old days, but the paths of many shops are not the same as before, only a few of them are the same as before, so it is a bit difficult to find them.

Relying on the memories in his mind and the clear moonlight, Ye Yi finally found the right direction.

It was a very small and dilapidated old store, without a store door, only a window on the wall was the business entrance of the store.There is also an oil lamp hanging on the wall. When the wind blows, it will be shaky, but it will not fall.

It was pitch black inside the window, and the light from the oil lamp was not enough to illuminate the situation inside.

Ye Yi tried to shout: "Is the boss there?"

There was still a dead silence inside the window, Ye Yi thought he didn't hear it, and seemed to shout again.Unexpectedly, someone patted his shoulder from behind at this time, and when Ye Yi turned his head, he saw a face full of vicissitudes.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for so many years, come back to buy milk salt peanuts?"

Ye Yi was surprised, hearing the boss' tone, he seemed to recognize him.Then I tried to ask, "Do you still recognize me?"

The old man said proudly: "I haven't reached the point where I can't recognize people with my eyes. How can I not recognize them? Don't you always love to buy peanuts in my small shop more than ten years ago."

"My appearance is different from many years ago, how did you recognize me?"

"What's so difficult about this?" The old man waved his hand and continued: "Everyone has something different from others, as long as you look carefully, you can guess it. You called me that more than ten years ago It came out, and after more than ten years, you still use this method, I don’t need to look to know it’s you.”

Ye nodded and said nothing.

"Wait, I'll get you peanuts."

As he spoke, the old man put his hands on the window, kicked his feet, turned over and climbed in, his movements were extremely agile.

Ye Yi recalled the first time he came to buy milk salted peanuts from this store, and it seemed like the same situation.

After a while, the old man took out two packages of peanuts.

"I remember that you seem to have a younger brother, why didn't you come with you?"

"He is resting in the inn, and tomorrow we will be on our way to Hangzhou City."

The old man smiled and nodded, "It seems that you have already found a place to live. It's rare that you will come back to my small shop to buy peanuts."

Ye Yi respectfully said: "The kindness of the past is unforgettable."

The old man hurriedly waved his hand, "It's not a kindness, what you said is a bit serious."

After finishing talking, the old man handed him the peanut: "It's getting late, old man, I still have to sleep, come and hang out with me when you have time."

Seeing that he turned to leave, Ye gave him the bank note in his hand.

The old man rubbed his eyes and said, "I can't find it..."

Before he finished speaking, the old man looked up, and there was no sign of Ye Yi.

"With lightness kung fu, it's different, and kung fu is gone in the blink of an eye."

Ye Yi took milk salt peanuts and prepared to return to the inn the same way.

But not long after leaving the small shop, he saw a few people who looked like bodyguards passing by carrying a sedan chair not far away.Because the sedan chair is quite special, instead of a thick door panel, it is covered with light gauze, and the people inside are faintly visible, but they can't see clearly.

Ye Yi was not interested in this, but the person in the sedan chair suddenly poked his head out.

It was a beautiful woman.Borrowing the moonlight, Ye could not take his eyes off it.

Of course, the reason why Ye Yi looked at her like this was not because she was good-looking, but because he found that this woman looked very much like a person.

The sedan chair gradually drifted away, Ye Ben wanted to catch up, but in a blink of an eye, he thought that he had no evidence, and people would be similar, if he only relied on his own side of the story, the woman would definitely not talk to him.

So he decided to follow secretly to see where this woman came from.

About two quarters of an hour later, the sedan chair stopped in front of a gorgeous pavilion.

Ye Yi frowned, how could it be Yanyue Tower?

The woman lifted up the veil, and the girls in front of Yanyue Building saw it and came to greet her with smiles.

Afterwards, the woman made it easy for them to enter Yanyue Tower together.

Ye Yi looked at their backs, thoughtful.

An hour later, the woman returned to the sedan chair and set off to leave.

Ye Yi then stepped into Yanyue Tower.

Coincidentally, just as Ye Yi went up the stairs, the boss in this building happened to come downstairs.

"Oh my god, who is this, come up suddenly to scare people to death?"

It was Mama Liu who was in the courtroom who cursed.

Ye Yi said, "I have some things I want to ask."

Seeing that he was a handsome young man, Madam Liu's attitude improved a bit. She rubbed her handkerchief and said with a smile, "My lord, those who come to our Yanyue Building all have something to ask for advice. I'll go find someone who will teach you."

"No, just ask you."

Mother Liu was really happy and ashamed when she heard that, she blushed and said embarrassedly: "Hey, what do you mean, my lord? But forget it, I will go all out today and accompany the guests in person, my lord, please. "

"..."

Ye Yi had a cold face, and suddenly felt a little chill in his heart.

After entering the private room, Ye Yi asked, "Is that girl from Yanyue Building just now?"

Mother Liu's shy expression froze for a moment, and she asked, "Which girl? There are at least a hundred girls in Yanyue Building, my lord, which one did you meet just now?"

"It's the one who came in an hour ago."

"One hour?" Mother Liu thought for a while, "You mean An Yao?"

Ye Yi gave her a few bank notes in his hand: "I want to know her origin, you must explain clearly."

Mother Liu felt mixed feelings when she heard this. She was happy because she could make a lot of money, but worried because she was just being too sentimental.But the money was the most important thing, so she didn't worry about it any more, and told him about An Yao.

"An Yao is my goddaughter. I picked her up in a small ravine. At that time, I was an ordinary person who sold embroidered cloth for a living. To save her, I spent all my belongings. She also knows how to be grateful. After she wakes up, she goes to the street to perform in order to maintain our family's income. An Yao is beautiful, and she is good at playing the piano, so her daily income is very good. So soon after, we We opened the Yanyue Building."

"When did you pick up that girl?"

"I remember the eighth day of June five years ago very clearly!"

Ye Yi thought for a while after hearing this, and then asked, "Do you have a portrait of her here?"

Liu's mother packed the banknotes, "A portrait? It seems that there is such a picture. I will look for it for you."

Mother Liu left the private room and came back after a while.

"This is An Yao."

Mother Liu opened the scroll, and inside it was An Yao in red.

Ye Yi asked, "Where is this girl now?"

"Let's go. The prefect of Hangzhou invited her to Hangzhou as a guest. She set off just now. Didn't the young master say that he met her? But my An Yao only sells her art and not her body. I also hired four experts to protect her. No matter how much others offer, I will not agree."

"Then when will she come back?"

Mother Liu shook her head, feeling a little helpless. "I don't know about this. The magistrate said that he would take An Yao to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the West Lake, and he would come back after the tour. Yanyue Building was a pleasant walk. Fortunately, there was An Yao, otherwise he would offend the magistrate again. , I don’t know Boss Fang’s future... hey, why are you robbing me of my paintings?"

Ye Yi didn't have time to listen to her nagging, so he gave her all the money left on his body, and said, "Take this money as I bought your painting."

Mother Liu beamed when she saw that she had made another fortune, and agreed to let Ye Yiyi take the painting without saying a word.

Ye Yi returned to the inn as quickly as possible, then went up to the second floor and knocked on Su Jiulian's door.

Su Jiulian was a little confused when he saw Ye Yi, so he asked him, "But what happened to Zixian?"

"No, I'm here because..."

As soon as Ye raised his head, he saw that Su Ye was still asleep, and the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat, not knowing how to say them.

Seeing that his expression was not right, Su Jiu turned her head and said to Su Ye, "Ye'er, I'll go out for a while, you stay in the room."

Su Ye nodded.

Su Jiulian took Ye Yi outside the inn.

"What's the matter, you can talk about it."

Ye Yi was still a little hesitant, he collected his thoughts and said: "Just now, my subordinates saw someone who looks the same as the Crown Princess."

Su Jiu's eyes narrowed, "What did you say!"

Ye Yi told Su Jiu all about what he had just experienced.

After hearing this, Su Jiulian frowned even deeper: "Didn't you see clearly?"

"This subordinate also thought so at first, but please take a look at this painting first."

Ye Yi opened the painting in his hand, Su Jiu looked at the painting without speaking for a long time.

An Yao in the painting is dressed in red, with sparkling eyebrows and delicate features, exactly the same as the person Su Jiulian had in mind.

Finally Su Jiulian asked: "Where is this woman now?"

"I went to Hangzhou City."

Su Jiu nodded repeatedly, put away the portrait, and said, "Don't let a third person know about this."

"Yes."

……

As soon as Ye opened the door, he saw Ye Shuang lying on his bed and fell asleep, so he put away the portrait first so that he would not see it.

When sitting in front of the window, Ye Yi couldn't bear to disturb his lucid dream, so he wanted to help him cover the quilt, and go to his room to sleep by himself.But he was quite alert and woke up after a while.

Ye Shuang opened his eyes in a daze, "Well, what time is it now?"

"It's already Xu time."

"Ah, it's so late?" Ye Shuang rubbed his arms and sat up. After seeing Ye Yi, his consciousness became clear, and he asked unhappily, "Where have you been? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Ye Yi rubbed his hair and said, "There are some things to do."

"What things can't be done during the day? Do you have to do it at night? Tell me, did you really go to drink and chat with the girl in Yanyuelou!"

Ye Yi was helpless: "Why should I go there?"

He gave him the milk salt peanuts in his pocket, "That small shop is still open, so I bought two packs back."

Ye Shuang looked at this thing and asked in surprise, "You still remember to buy it for me?"

"How could you forget? I didn't spare time this morning, and I just couldn't sleep, so I went out."

Seeing that Ye Shuang didn't intend to take it away, Ye Yi took it back. "If you don't want to eat it, I'll take it back."

"No, of course I want to eat, give it to me."

Ye Shuang hurriedly snatched back a pack, and after opening it, all the fragrance inside came out, hooking out all the gluttons in his stomach.

After eating a few grains, Ye Shuang smiled and said, "It's still the original taste. Sure enough, only that restaurant can make such delicious food. You should eat it together, don't waste it."

Ye Yi also missed this taste, so he opened his bag.

Ye Shuang continued: "I'll sleep here tonight, I'm too lazy to go back to my room."

Ye Yi smiled and said, "Okay."
