Xuanyuan Zheng didn't wake up until the afternoon. When he woke up, he only felt a headache. After getting up in a daze, he opened his eyes and saw that the surroundings were a bit strange? But it seemed a bit familiar.

He sat up, raised his hand to support his head, and was about to tap it, but what he touched was not the smooth hair as usual, but... why does it feel a little pimple?

He touched it, a lump on his head? !

He hurriedly got up from the bed, looked around the room, and walked over immediately after seeing the mirror.It's okay if you don't look at it, but when you look at it, Xuanyuanzheng's eyes are full of shock, why is it all braids on his head?Who made it? !

He patted the table and was about to vent his dissatisfaction when the door of the room was pushed open.What he wanted to say was suddenly stuck, and he turned around with a vigilant expression.

At this time, it was Hongye who opened the door and walked in.

Then Xuanyuanzheng remembered that this is the imperial palace, His Majesty's Qingfeng Palace.

Hongye saluted Xuanyuanzheng with a smile on her face, and then said respectfully: "Young General, Your Majesty tells you that if you wake up, don't move around, stay here and wait for him to come back."

Xuanyuan Zheng blinked, thoughts flooded his mind, one scene after another appeared in his mind, and then flashed by.What happened last night was clearly presented before his eyes.

He turned his back? When he opened his eyes wide, the emotion in his eyes was even more unbelievable.When he was in the ancestral hall of Xuanyuan Mansion during the day yesterday, he decided to hide his feelings for His Majesty. How could he lose control of his behavior after drinking so much wine?

Xuanyuanzheng, you idiot, who made you drink in front of His Majesty?He even got drunk and did something he shouldn't have done!Stupid stupid stupid! !

He supported his head, his face full of remorse, but he was helpless about what had happened.

His face was reflected in the mirror in front of him, and the braids on his head came into view impressively.

Xuanyuanzheng glanced at it, only felt a headache, he raised his hand to pat his head, and took another deep breath.

Hong Ye said again: "Is the Major General hungry? Do you need any servants to prepare something for you?"

"No need," Xuanyuanzheng sighed, and began to remove the braids on his head: "What did your Majesty do? When? When will you be back?"

"Your Majesty is out on business. If you come back early, you will be back before nightfall. If you are delayed by something, you may have to wait until tomorrow."

"Your Majesty is out of the palace?" Xuanyuanzheng frowned instantly: "Your Majesty is physically impaired, how can we let him out of the palace?"

"Your Majesty wants to go out, who can stop him?" "..."

Xuanyuan Zheng pursed his lower lip.It seems, too.

He frowned, full of helplessness, and after taking off the ebony hairpin on the bun, he speeded up the action of dismantling the braids in his hands, then picked up the comb on the table, combed the bun by himself, and finally put the hair into the bun. The hairpin was inserted back into the bun.

Perhaps it was because the braids had been tied for a while, but after the braids were removed, the hair was a little curly and not as straight as before.

Right now, nothing happened, and I don't know what to do.

Hongye was still in the room and hadn't left. When he looked over, she looked at him with a smile on her face, her expression seemed to be exactly the same as before.

Xuanyuan Zheng walked over to: "Where did your Majesty go, do you know?"

"I don't know."

"Then can I go home first, I want to take a shower."

"Your servant can send someone to prepare bath water for the major general."

"Can't I leave Qingfeng Palace?"

"Major General, it's better not to."

"..."

Xuanyuan Zheng squinted his eyes, and the displeasure slowly emerged in his eyes.It's best not to... The meaning of this sentence can actually be understood as: Although it's best not to, you can actually leave.

After all, he didn't think anyone here could stop him.

Xuanyuanzheng smiled suddenly, Hongye inexplicably had an ominous premonition.

Hong Ye hurriedly said: "Young General, please don't make things difficult for your servant, your servant is just following His Majesty's orders."

"If your majesty comes back early, you can tell your majesty that I'm going home. If your majesty doesn't come back, I'll come back later? Just come."

"..."

When Hongye wanted to say something, Xuanyuanzheng said before her: "I don't want to embarrass you, so don't embarrass me either. Otherwise..."

Xuanyuanzheng moved his wrist, the words after "otherwise" are self-evident.

"..."

Hongye didn't dare to stop him, and could only watch his back quickly disappear from sight, and then let out a helpless sigh: Your Majesty, it's really not that the servant doesn't work hard, but that the servant really can't stop the major general... …

At this time, Mingyue Tower.

Yu Wenjin had been here for more than half an hour, and he was staring at a man in dark purple clothes in the private seat on the third floor, who was playing mahjong with someone.

As far as Yu Wenjin was watching here, he hadn't won a single lap, but he had lost a lot of money, but he was still happy and happy, not at all unhappy, and his temper seemed to be very good.

He Jin brought Aya back after buying candied haws and candied fruit. Yu Wenjin was still sitting in his original position, looking at the man in dark purple clothes with a thoughtful face.

Aya took a bite of the candied haws: "What are you looking at? Do you want to play mahjong too?"

Yu Wenjin raised his eyebrows, and a thought came to him suddenly. He asked Aya, "Would you like to come and play for a while?"

Aya nodded again and again: "Okay, okay. Then can I keep the money I won?"

"can."

"Then come on!" Aya bit the candied haws and half rolled up her sleeves: "I'm ready, I want to 'kill the Quartet'!"

Yu Wenjin smiled.

What? Jin shook his head helplessly, Miss Aya, have you forgotten how bad your luck was when you played mahjong with His Majesty?Also "kill the Quartet"... If you can keep your capital, it is already a very good result.

Yu Wenjin and Aya walked over, and the entourage of Mingyue Tower who followed them patted the table in front of them? The other three people who were playing mahjong: "Several, after playing for so long, let's change the venue. I have prepared tea for you."

The three of them won the money, they were in a good mood, and they could go to the private room, so naturally they followed happily.

Then there were three seats vacant on the table.

Yu Wenjin sat down opposite the man in dark purple clothes: "Brother, I'm not feeling very lucky. I don't know if I can improve my luck if I change people."

The man in the dark purple clothes smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if I change it or not, I'm not unlucky, I'm used to it."

Yu Wenjin raised his eyebrows.

"Since you've sat down, you're a poker player. How dare you ask the young master's name?"

"Cheng Jin, what about you?"

"Duguye," the man cupped his hands, "Looking at Mr. Cheng Jin's luxurious body and elegant face, he must be the son of a wealthy family in Kyoto. Why do you come to Mingyue Tower to gamble?"

"Young Master Dugu's words are wrong. This is not gambling, but relaxing."

Duguye was stunned for a moment, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.This statement is rather strange.To say that gambling is relaxing, this guy must have a lot of money in his family.

After all, the Mingyue Building is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Kyoto, and those who can come here to gamble on the third floor are naturally not ordinary people.

But... Cheng Jin?

Why hasn't he heard of this name before?Is there such a wealthy family in Kyoto?

Yu Wenjin said: "Young Master Dugu, there are so many people here, how about we play in another place?"

Dugu Ye was slightly puzzled, but still nodded in agreement.

Yu Wenjin and He Jin said: "Take Miss Aya to play here for a while." He Jin nodded: "Yes."

Then Yu Wenjin took Dugu Ye to the room on the fifth floor of Mingyue Building.

When Dugu Ye went, his eyes were full of surprise, because Mingyue Tower had rules, only those who spent [-] taels of gold in Mingyue Tower were eligible to go to the fifth floor.Naturally, the rooms on the fifth floor are not just for the guests who come to play to gamble.

He stayed in Mingyue Tower for three days, and he was able to go directly to the fifth floor without notification and inspection. This Mr. Cheng Jin was the first.

Dugu Ye couldn't help but start to wonder about his identity.

After entering the room, Dugu Ye said with a smile: "I didn't expect Mr. Cheng Jin to be so rich. The fifth floor of Mingyue Building is not where casual people can come. But?... I have lived in Kyoto for a long time, Why haven't you heard of it? Where is Mr. Cheng Jin?"

He didn't like to beat around the bush, and when he spoke, he naturally cut to the point.

Yu Wenjin invited him to take a seat, and he sat down too.Then the servants of Mingyue Tower brought refreshments, all of which were high-quality products bought from famous pastry shops in Kyoto.

Dugu Ye glanced at it, and his eyes lit up: "This is Suyouge's mille-feuille cake, lily cake, and glutinous rice dumpling. These are their signatures, and they are limited every day!"

"If Mr. Dugu likes it, eat more. Mingyuelou still has a lot."

He unceremoniously picked up a glutinous rice dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth, touching the fragrant and soft glutinous rice and sugar heart, the sweet taste spread quickly.Sweet but not greasy, mellow in the mouth.

After eating, he suddenly realized a question: "Mr. Cheng Jin said just now, there are many such pastries in Mingyuelou?"

"Yes," Cheng Jin smiled and shook the jade bone fan in his hand: "I invited their master to Mingyue Tower."

"Oh I got it."

He picked up a piece of lily cake and threw it into his mouth. After chewing for a few times, he realized another thing. His eyes were shocked: "Please? You invited the master here? Are you... the boss of Mingyue Tower?"

"It is."

"Is it?" Dugu Ye squinted his eyes, and began to look up and down at this seemingly elegant and easy-going man in front of him. No wonder he had never seen him in Kyoto before. It turned out that he suddenly appeared in Kyoto together with this Mingyue Tower !

Dugu Ye smiled suddenly: "It seems that Mr. Cheng Jin invited me to the fifth floor, not just for playing mahjong and eating pastries, right? I don't like to beat around the bush, so just speak up if you have something to say."

"That's great," Yu Wenjin smiled, "I don't like to beat around the bush either. Since that's the case, I'll be straightforward." He looked into Dugu Ye's eyes: "I want to make a deal with Mr. Dugu. "

"Deal?" Dugu Ye smiled while eating mille-feuille pastry: "Mr. Cheng Jin already has such a big hand, why do you need to make a deal with me? I'm just a gambler. A little money, but there is nothing else good to give you."

"I don't need good things, but I need Mr. Dugu."

Dugu Ye raised his eyebrows, and jokingly said, "Mr. Cheng Jin, what do you mean by that? I don't want to sell myself."

Yu Wenjin laughed lightly, tapping the jade bone fan on the table lightly.

He smiled, but his tone became a little more serious: "Young Master Dugu, didn't you just say that you don't like to beat around the bush? Then stop pretending. I know you are the leader of the killer organization 'Dark Night', or rather, I should call you— —Ye, Gong, Zi."

"Oh?" Dugu Ye smiled a little deeper: "You know?"

"know."

Dugu Ye laughed, clapped the pastry crumbs in his hands, and then slowly got up.

He walked up to Yu Wenjin, leaned on the table with one hand, bent down and looked down: "Mr. Cheng Jin knows that people who know my identity don't live long."

At some point, a sharp knife appeared in his hand, and it gently slashed across Yu Wenjin's neck, and a cold and sharp feeling spread from his neck.

Duguye said again: "Now that you know my identity, this is a bad thing for me. Tell me, how can I kill you so that no one will be suspicious?"
